It snowed all day long during the day and night of the ninth day of the new year, and the snow was not very heavy, but it couldn't help but fall for a long time, so people opened the door early in the eleventh day of the new year to find that the snow was thick again.

After breakfast, Wen Ming was chatting with his parents over tea in the small courtyard, time passed day by day, and the family cherished every day they got along, and today is the date when the school palace will pick up people, and maybe the next moment the person from the school palace will appear.

Su Qingmei took a sip of the teacup, and said with a little sorrow: "I don't know what tools the school palace uses to pick up people, can you bring two more people, Xiao Ming'er, if you don't have anyone to take care of me, I can rest assured." ”

Wen Ming also thought that if he could bring someone to bring the small stone and Huan'er over, there was no way to do it in the wild, if he could live more comfortably and conveniently in the city, he would naturally not object, and even thought about bringing Jiang Zhiyong (the broken arm warrior who was fooled by Jiang Haitao to go to the Wenjia medicine field to steal the medicine together) with him, after all, the two of them have no force, and it may be useful to bring a warrior.

However, if I don't know if I can bring someone, I have to comfort my mother first: "Mother doesn't have to worry, it doesn't matter if I can't bring it, it's not good that no one takes care of me when I'm outside, and if the school palace can bring people, let them go when the time comes." ”

Su Qingmei's sorrow decreased slightly, nodded and was about to speak again, when he heard a burst of exclamation and noise outside, both inside the Wen Mansion and outside the Wen Mansion, vaguely it seems that many people have mentioned the word "heaven".

The three of them looked up at the sky in curiosity, and they all stood up in shock, their eyes widened, and their faces were full of incredulity:

I saw a giant bird flying towards the Wen Mansion in the southeast direction, under normal circumstances, ordinary people can not accurately estimate its distance and size, but at this time, anyone with normal eyesight can understand that the wingspan of this giant bird is at least 20 meters or more, just because the giant bird has a figure standing upright like a benchmark, and the size of the giant bird can be roughly estimated through comparison.

The giant bird flew closer and lower and lower, but because of the figure on its back, people only exclaimed and were not frightened, otherwise if a single giant bird was afraid that Red Maple City would have been in a panic at this time, such a big bird is not an ordinary color, and it is flying lower and lower, obviously not passing by, who is not afraid?

The giant bird's flight posture looks very leisurely, and it doesn't look fast at all, but in fact, with its huge body, it looks much faster than ordinary birds flying half to death.

When Wenming Yue and his wife first looked up, they could only see that the size of the giant bird could not distinguish the color, and this gang blinked incredibly a few times to distinguish that the giant bird's whole body was covered with long cyan feathers, but it was very obvious under the blue sky after the snow.

"Chirp~" At this moment, the cyan giant bird, which had dropped to a height of two or three hundred meters, let out a clear long roar, and the sound was heard clearly by the people of the entire Red Maple City from near and far, and even the people who had not known the arrival of the giant bird in the house before had run out.

The giant bird's body did not stop, and its body continued to fly and lower with a long song.

"Whew!" A very loud wind accompanied by the sound of the giant bird whistled from the southwest of the mansion hundreds of meters away, almost hundreds of meters high, after the birdsong, the wind sounded, the mansion blew a gust of cold wind, the treetops, the eaves of the unswept snow could not help but fall.

Wen Ming took off his coat and waved it to block away some of the broken snow that was blowing, he had already seen that the giant bird was not coming to the Wen Mansion, but was likely to go to the World Palace, and it looked like it was coming to the Wen Mansion just because the Wen Mansion was slightly south to the east of the World Palace, and the giant bird flew from the southeast, and if he didn't pay attention, he thought it was flying towards the Wen Mansion.

The giant bird's clear song finally stopped, but the giant bird had already reached the sky above the World Temple, flapping its wings and floating 4 or 50 meters above the ground.

A voice in the distance shouted: "I don't know which senior is here, but there is a place where I can use Red Maple City?"

This voice is Su Dingzhen, but he recognizes this giant bird, this is the famous bird spirit beast "Qingfeng Bird", it is natural that it will not be a simple thing to control the spirit beast, Su Dingzhen, as the first person in Red Maple City, naturally wants to ask.

"I am in charge of the school palace to pick up the two students of Wenming and Ji Jingyun. An indifferent voice replied, sounding younger, and its owner was supposed to be a young man.

"It turned out to be an adult from the School Palace, I don't know if the adults want to stay in the city to eat?" Su Ding really wanted to be hospitable and get acquainted with this person from the School Palace by the way, but he didn't dare to make a claim, what if people didn't like it?

"No need, Wen Ming and Ji Jingyun, please come to the World Hall within an hour, and they will not wait for it. ”

"So I won't bother the adults. ”

At first glance, the conversation between the two sounded louder than Su Dingzhen, his voice was a little roaring, and the person from the school palace was just chatting as usual, but in fact, Su Dingzhen's voice could not be heard at the edge of the city, but the voice of the person from the school palace spread throughout the city.

After the conversation, I saw the figure on the bird leave the bird's back and flutter down, while the Qingfeng bird let out a clear song again and flew towards the Sunset Mountain Range.

Here, Su Qingmei's eyes were already red when she heard someone from the school palace identify herself and say that she was about to cry, although she knew that this moment would always come, but when she really arrived, she still couldn't help but want to cry.

Wen Wenyue's eyes were slightly red and his face was full of sadness.

Wen Ming looked at his parents' demeanor, his nose was sour, and for a moment he even had the idea of not going to the school palace to stay at home with his parents, but after all, it was only a fleeting thought, if you get it, you must have to pay, and since you embark on the road of a warrior, you should have the consciousness of losing some things, maybe when he is strong enough, he can live as he wants, but it is definitely not now.

Not to mention that for his own ideal of standing on the top of the stars, it is said that at this time, he shoulders the responsibility of protecting the Wen family and letting the Wen family pass on for a longer time, as well as carrying the expectations of the whole city, he has to keep moving forward, and there is no way back.

Therefore, after his lips finally pursed a few times, he still spoke: "Father, mother, I will come back to see you whenever I have the opportunity, and I will write to you frequently, don't worry too much, and when I have learned something in the future, I will be able to accompany you every day." ”

Su Qingmei's tears still flowed: "I just thought that I didn't know how long I wouldn't be able to see you, and it would be uncomfortable." ”

Wen Wenyue took a step, stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around his wife's shoulder, sighed and said, "Okay, go clean up, don't be too late to wait." ”

Wen Ming's luggage has been roughly packed, but I don't know how long it will take to come back again, but the items to be carried have to be carefully sorted out.

Speaking of packing her luggage, Su Qingmei immediately shook off her husband's hand and wanted to clean up together.

Because it seemed that the person couldn't carry anyone else, Wenming's luggage should be a little more streamlined, and the main thing to bring was a change of clothes, daily necessities, a small number of books, and the most important spar bronze ticket and Biling Elixir.

Uh, and more importantly, kittens

At the end of last year, the congratulatory gifts received by the Wen family were given to Wen Ming in addition to the large cost of the New Year's Festival, and the rest of the medicines, spars, and remaining property were given to Wen Ming, of course, there were also fields, and Wen Ming naturally couldn't take them away.

At that time, a lot of money was copper coins and small copper tickets (100), and finally they were all exchanged for copper tickets, most of which were the largest 10,000 copper tickets, and a small number of scattered inscriptions were spent, with a total of more than 4.8 million.

And the drugs have basically been eaten up by Wenming, except for a star spar that originally had nearly 200 points and is now only 150 points, the rest are ordinary spars, and most of them are the most common spars with about 100 points, there are 35 pieces in total.

Biling Elixir only brought more than 120 pieces, one is the only one left at home, the old man Wen collected a big collection before the Wenming exam, and then he didn't have time to collect it again, he was busy celebrating and celebrating the New Year years ago, and he didn't know when the people from the school palace would come after the year, and he didn't go to collect it because he was afraid of not having enough time.

Another point is that no matter how many potions there are, it can't be fitted, even if Wen Ming has long been afraid of the cold, the clothes he brought are just light clothes for summer, and all the things have been packed with the big back that was used to put Biguang grass before.

After cleaning up, there were only ten minutes left, and when Wen Ming went out, he saw a large number of people waiting outside the courtyard.

Needless to say, the Wen family didn't have to say that Su Dingzhen and Su Yifeng were also here. It is not surprising that Su Yifeng has a inscription, but it is unexpected that Su Dingzhen came.

There is not much time, everyone just came to send the inscription, I didn't plan to talk about anything in detail, what should have been told has already been taught, what Mr. Wen should have taught has already been taught, Su Dingzhen just a few words of encouragement, I wish him an early graduation. The graduation conditions of the Three Great Palaces are not ordinary-the basic condition is to become a war master, and as long as Wen Ming can graduate, he will be the first war master in the history of Red Maple City.

Out of the Wen Mansion, many people outside also rushed to say goodbye, Wen Ming Tuan waved and said: "See you in the future!" He didn't look back, and ran straight to the World Palace, he was afraid that there would be unnecessary hesitation after turning back.

......

When Wen Ming arrived at the World Palace, the people of the Academy Palace, Ji Jingyun, were already waiting, but the Qingfeng Bird had not yet returned. By the way, this Qingfeng Bird is one of the few spirit beasts he knows, because the Qingfeng Bird is quite famous among spirit beasts, and its fame is not in its strong combat power, but in its suitability for manned flight.

The person from the school palace is really a young man, and he seems to be only 30 years old, so he doesn't know if his real age is as good as he looks. And his personality is estimated to be as indifferent as his voice, and when he saw Wen Ming coming, he only said lightly that his surname was He, and let Wen Ming and the two call him Senior Brother He.

Senior Brother He looks average, but he has a slender and well-proportioned figure, and he has an indifferent and chic temperament, just wearing a simple and light white combat uniform, which makes people admire.

Wen Ming and the two of them saw that he didn't want to say much, so they just called Senior Brother He and didn't bother much, and the two talked softly and guessed that Senior Brother He should also be a student of the Three Great Palaces, saying that it was soft, the three of them were not far away, Senior Brother He was enough to easily hear their conversation, and the two thought that he might explain it out loud, but people didn't bother to pay attention to it at all.

As soon as I chatted a few words, a clear sound came from the sky, and when I looked up, I saw that the Qingfeng Bird was flying quickly.

The speed of the Qingfeng Bird is much faster than before, and it reaches the top of the heads of the three people between breaths, and then slowly circles and descends, and finally floats with its wings at a distance of 5 meters from the ground, which is not possible for ordinary birds to do at all, only small, wings fanning frequency birds can hover in the air, but the Qingfeng Bird is a spirit animal and a master of playing with the wind, and it is easy to float at a fixed point.

There is a breeze blowing on the ground, and if you are not afraid of the cold, it is very comfortable to blow on your face.

Qingfeng Bird's huge black round eyes slowly turned, looking at Wen Ming and the others.

Wen Ming also had the opportunity to carefully look at the first spirit beast he saw in this life, with a wingspan of twenty-one and twelve meters wide, and the head and tail could be longer, mainly because it had a tail feather that was more than half the length of its body, plus it was covered in green feathers, without a trace of variegation, many people said that the Qingfeng Bird had the blood of Qingluan, and it was unknown whether it was true or false.

Senior Brother He stepped on the back of the Qingfeng Bird with a light touch of his toes.

Wen Ming finished looking at the Qingfeng Bird, and seeing that Senior Brother He didn't introduce it, he could only salute the Qingfeng Bird who was staring at the two of them: "I've seen Brother Bird!" The wisdom of most spirit beasts is almost the same as that of humans, but they can't speak, and Senior Brother He can only make do with "Brother Bird" if he doesn't say what to call it.

Ji Jingyun also gave a salute, and the Qingfeng Bird nodded to the two, the corners of his mouth seemed to be pulled, but it was really difficult to see whether the bird's beak was pulled or not, and even Wen Ming was not sure.

After the salute, the two jumped up together, of course, their posture was not as light and elegant as Senior Brother He, if they were one or two meters taller, Ji Jingyun might not be able to jump.

After the two of them went up, Senior Brother He said lightly: "You sit down, cover your body with feathers, and pick two hard feathers to hold on." ”

The two of them obediently did so, and Senior Brother He could stand as tall as a gun on the back of a bird and not move in the wind, which did not mean that they could too.

The Qingfeng bird is more than 3 meters wide on its back, which is extremely wide and can be sat cross-legged. The feathers on the back have hard feathers and down, and after sitting cross-legged, the warm and soft fluff can cover the thighs, and the long hard feathers can also cover most of the body.

After the two of them sat down, the Qingfeng Bird chirped again, and it could be seen that it liked to chirp quite much.

After the song, the wings flapped, and the body rose upward, flying in the direction from which it came.

When flying diagonally above the Wen house, Wen Ming could still see that the person who had sent him off before below was still standing there, looking at the sky, the flight speed was not fast at this time, and Wen Ming's eyesight was good, so that he could look at it one by one: most of the Wen family were proud and proud, the grandfather was a little sad, the uncle looked very complicated, and the father was comforting the tearful mother

I couldn't help but moisten my eyes, my right hand grabbed the feather, and my left hand waved downward.

In addition to the Wen family's side, countless citygoers looked at the sky along the way, and many waved and cheered, and they could also see from a distance that there were also many people in the Ji family looking up and watching, Ji's mother, who was very tough a while ago, was constantly wiping her cheeks with her hands, Xiaofei cried and shouted to her sister, only Ji's father was relatively calm.

Then Wen Ming saw Ji Jingyun crying for the first time, and saw the weak side of the proud phoenix for the first time.

"Huh~Huh!" The wind became louder, and the speed of the Qingfeng Bird also increased, and it soon came out of Red Maple City.

Wen Ming turned his head to see that the familiar city was getting farther and smaller, and his heart was getting more and more clogged, and he saw that the tears that he had been holding back were about to flow, and some indescribable emotion prompted him to roar towards Red Maple City: "Woo!"

He didn't know if there was any parting in his whistling, but he felt that if he didn't yell out, he would be suffocated and unable to breathe.

Hearing the whistling of Wenming, the Qingfeng bird that likes to chirp also followed the "chirp~" again, and the roar of people, birdsong, and wind whistle gradually went away
