Chapter 107: Heavenly Star Academy
"Let's go. ”
The old and the young set off again, but the atmosphere was significantly different from the previous dull and awkward.
The two of them were not far from the Heavenly Star Academy, so it didn't take long for the gate of the Heavenly Star Academy to appear in front of the two.
The Celestial Star Academy is the only building in the imperial capital that is larger than the imperial city. The main entrance of Tianxing Academy is even more magnificent. It is as high as three zhang and eight zhang wide, which means that ten carriages are very spacious when they travel side by side.
Above the main entrance, two huge swords crossed and pointed straight into the sky, were carved into the sky, and directly below them was a group of heavily armed Imperial heavy armor soldiers. The two echo each other, and you can feel a killing aura coming from afar.
Seeing this scene, Lin Zhan's eyes shrank slightly, and he couldn't help but say: "Good soldier, so murderous." ”
Lin Tianxiao nodded on the side and said with a smile: "You kid knows the goods, these soldiers are all the children of our Lin family." They are all from the battlefield, and each of them can be called the elite of a hundred battles. Ordinary people can't even stand this momentum. ”
Looking at those soldiers, Lin Tianxiao's eyes couldn't help but show a little heat and nostalgia: "Okay, get off the horse." You can't go in this place on horseback. ”
Celestial Star Academy is the highest institution of learning in the Empire, sending a large number of talents to the Empire every year, and its position in the Empire is very important. Moreover, the founder of Tianxing Academy was also an important minister who was extremely trusted by Emperor Taizu back then. Therefore, on the day of the completion of the Celestial Star Academy, Emperor Taizu issued a royal decree that the most elite heavy armor legion of the empire would be responsible for protecting the safety of the Celestial Star Academy. No one is allowed to make trouble around the Tianxing Academy, and anyone who passes by the Tianxing Academy will get off the sedan chair and the military attache will get off the horse. If there is a violation, it will be severely punished.
So even when Lin Tianxiao arrived at the main entrance of Tianxing Academy, he had to honestly dismount and walk in.
After Lin Tianxiao dismounted, he tidied up his clothes slightly, and walked over with Lin Zhan in great strides.
"The last general has seen Generalissimo Lin. ”
Before Lin Tianxiao approached, a general with his whole body wrapped in heavy armor walked over quickly and saluted Lin Tianxiao.
Lin Tianxiao glanced at the person and said softly: "Oh, it's Xiao Shi." Today you're in charge of patrolling here. ”
"Yes. Xiao Shi replied respectfully.
Lin Tianxiao nodded, then turned back to Lin Zhan and said, "Zhan'er, this is General Xiao Shixiao, and he was an old subordinate of mine. ”
After hearing this, Lin Tian nodded at Xiao Shi: "General Xiao." ”
"Xiao Shi has seen Second Prince Lin. ”
As Lin Tianxiao's old department, Xiao Shi naturally knew who the main figures of the Lin family were. Lin Zhan's appearance and age, coupled with Lin Tianxiao's words just now, Xiao Shi immediately guessed Lin Zhan's identity.
"Alright, you go get busy first. ”
After finishing speaking, Lin Tianxiao took this Lin Zhan in.
Xiao Shi was just a small person, and there was no need for Lin Zhan to pay too much attention to him. With the identity of the second son of the Lin family there, Xiao Shi did not dare to be disrespectful to Lin Zhan.
It's just that through this incident, Lin Zhan has a further understanding of Lin Tianxiao.
Xiao Shi was just a small leader in charge of patrolling the main entrance of the Heavenly Star Academy, and his status was 108,000 miles behind Lin Tianxiao. is such a small person, when his whole body is wrapped in heavy armor, Lin Tianxiao can actually recognize him at a glance. And listening to Lin Tianxiao's tone, he still knows this Xiao Shi very well.
If this is just a special case, but if this is a common phenomenon, then Lin Tianxiao is too terrifying.
Lin Zhan couldn't help but muttered in his heart: No wonder Lin Tianxiao was able to obtain such a high status in the Heavenly Star Empire, and he really had his superiority. Looking at Lin Tianxiao's usually kind eyebrows and kind eyes, this is the real hidden master.
As soon as the two of them entered the gate, they were greeted by a huge statue five feet high. It is carved from a single piece of marble that is as white as jade.
It was a mighty and domineering general with a horse under his seat, a bow at his waist, a sword pointing at the sky, and a domineering man. Although the statue is just a dead thing, as soon as it stands there, it naturally exudes a domineering and majestic momentum, as if a peerless overlord is dominating the world, which makes people involuntarily rise an urge to submit to its command.
Judging from Lin Zhan's eyesight, the craftsman in charge of carving this statue has reached the point of perfection. With an axe and a chisel, the general's charm is vividly portrayed. But Lin Zhan could also see at a glance that the biggest credit for this statue to be so domineering was the general himself.
Looking at this statue, Lin Tianxiao's eyes became extraordinarily deep, and he sighed and said, "This is Emperor Taizu who led us to fight the world together. At that time, we people followed him to conquer the world, and after paying countless lives, we laid down the great rivers and mountains of the Celestial Star Empire. The killing back then is still vivid, but now it is a matter of fact, Emperor Taizu has already died, and our old guys have already been half buried in the ground. ”
Facing the monarch who had passed away for many years, Lin Tianxiao's tone carried a vicissitudes that could not be concealed.
Lin Zhan nodded, glanced at the statue in front of him again, and said, "He can be regarded as a hero." ”
Hearing Lin Zhan's seemingly praising but contemptuous evaluation, Lin Tianxiao just smiled and didn't care.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the dean of Tianxing Academy, you have to make the decision of that old guy to get into the school. Speaking of which, he is also an old comrade-in-arms who fought with me in the world. But after so many years, this guy's temper has become stinky and hard, and I don't know if my old face can still come in handy. ”
Lin Tianxiao's words seemed to be doubting whether he had enough face, but from his relaxed tone, Lin Zhan could clearly hear that he was ten percent sure of this matter.
It seems that the relationship between this dean and Lin Tianxiao is not as simple as he said.
has been following Lin Tianxiao behind, and Lin Zhan realized that Tianxing Academy is really not ordinary. The teaching buildings and dormitory buildings I saw along the way were densely packed in rows one after another, and even the Lin family couldn't compare to the scale.
As for those large or small playgrounds, Lin Zhan saw four or five places along the way. Some small ones are easy to say, just three or five acres of land. The largest playground Lin Zhan saw was comparable in size to a military school field.
In the Celestial Star Empire, the Lin family was already a giant-level existence. But even if Lin Zhan's school field is added, there are only four small school fields in Lin Fuzhong.
It can be seen that this Celestial Star Academy is indeed extraordinary.
And along the way, Lin Zhan also discovered a detail.
At this time, the school has already started classes, so there are not too many students on campus, and they are mainly concentrated on the playground. The students gathered in the playground were both men and women, and except for a few who wore extremely gorgeous clothes, most of them wore relatively ordinary clothes, and a few of them were even worn out.
In Tianxing Academy, only talent is important, regardless of background. As long as you have the ability, even if you are a beggar, Tianxing Academy can recruit you.
No matter how much this principle could be implemented, Lin Zhan already had a good impression of this Heavenly Star Academy in his heart.
At the same time, Lin Zhan also had a strong interest in the dean of this academy, the old comrade-in-arms with a stinky and hard temper in Lin Tianxiao's mouth.
After all, it took a lot of courage and courage for him to be the first to put forward this principle and implement it to the greatest extent.
Lin Zhan and Lin Tianxiao set off from their homes and rode horses to Tianxing Academy, but it only took half an hour. Now Lin Zhan followed Lin Tianxiao for nearly half an hour before finally stopping.
Such an experience made Lin Zhan can't help but want to scold his mother.
Isn't it just a broken school, as for building it so big? No matter how vast the territory of the Celestial Star Empire is, it won't be so wasted.
After so much hard work, what finally appeared in front of Lin Zhan was just an inconspicuous cabin.
Such a result made Lin Zhan stunned.
Lin Zhan said that this small wooden house was inconspicuous, and he did not wronged it at all. A small boxy cabin with nothing to stand out about, neither majestic architecture nor ornate decorations. From the outside, it looks like an ordinary house of the people at the bottom of the empire. It is even more insignificant in this sprawling college.
It took so long for Lin Tianxiao to actually bring himself to such a place, what does this mean.
