Chapter Twenty-Six: Shentamen Academy
This sleep seems to be eternal!
Ning Hao opened his eyes leisurely and found that he was living in a well-furnished room, and there were a few white lotus flowers in the small vase next to the bed, which were very beautiful;
Ning Hao tried to sit up, but the sharp pain in his right shoulder almost made Ning Hao faint again. After a while, Ning Hao's face was covered with cold sweat.
Suddenly, the door of the room was opened with a "babbling", and a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, slim and elegant, with bright eyes and bright teeth, walked in, and the moment the girl walked in, the white lotus flower on the table next to Ning Hao was suddenly eclipsed. As soon as the girl saw Ning Hao wake up, she was very happy and said, "You woke up, you have been in a coma for three days, how do you feel now?"
Ning Hao smiled slightly: "I'm fine, may I ask where this is, are you?"
"I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Li Shui'er. The girl pointed to herself and said, "This is the Shentamen Academy, and my father is the bishop of the Shentamen Academy, Li Zheng. ”
"Shentamen Academy, the Shentamen Academy located between the Southern Barbarians and the Western Wilderness?" Ning Hao excitedly wanted to get up from the bed, and as soon as he accidentally used the force on his right shoulder, Ning Hao immediately bared his teeth in pain.
Li Shui'er hurriedly helped Ning Hao and said, "Don't worry, the injuries on your body are not all healed, so you can't move." ”
"Thank you for saving me. Ning Hao said.
Li Shui'er touched the soft hair of the little fox next to him and said: "Actually, I just passed by and saved you, what you really want to thank should be your pet, you were lying next to a river at that time, and it was it that took me to the place where you were unconscious." "Yes, thank you, little fox. Ning Hao said to the little fox.
The little fox stretched his waist and glanced at Ning Hao, his eyes seemed to say: You are such a big person, you still need Lao Tzu to save you, are you ashamed. After watching Ning Hao, the little fox immediately jumped into Li Shui'er's arms, and then fell asleep again in Li Shui'er's arms.
Ning Hao shifted his gaze to Li Shui'er again, and said, "You said that this is the Divine Tower Gate Academy, is it the Divine Tower Gate Academy at the southwest junction?"
"yes, what's wrong?"
Ning Hao secretly said in his heart: I remember that after I fell off the cliff, I suddenly felt like my whole body was soaked in cold water, and then I lost consciousness, it should be the river that Li Shui'er said. I remember that I would have to travel for at least a month to reach the Divine Tower Gate Academy, unless there was a section of that river that was an underground river that could lead directly to the vicinity of the Divine Tower Gate, and Ning Hao passed through that section of the underground river without dying. However, Ning Hao still didn't believe it, how dangerous the underground river was, there were countless monsters and beasts hidden underground, not to mention that it could be connected to the vicinity of the Divine Tower Gate at once, which showed that this underground dark river was also a little far away, if this was the case, Ning Hao could come out unharmed, then he was too lucky. But how to say this is just one of Ning Hao's thoughts, in fact, Ning Hao has another explanation in his heart: that is the little fox, maybe he was brought over by the little fox.
Ning Hao looked at the little fox sleeping in Li Shui'er's arms, Ning Hao could faintly hear the little fox's snoring, but no matter how he looked, Ning Hao couldn't see that this petite fox could pull him back from the edge of death and bring him here, no matter what he said, it was impossible for this little fox to know where Ning Hao wanted to go. It's just that no matter what, now that he came to the Divine Tower Gate, Ning Hao naturally found a way to sneak into the Divine Tower Gate.
"Are you okay?" Li Shui'er shook her slender hand in front of Ning Hao, looking at Ning Hao's expression in a daze, Li Shui'er said a little worried.
Ning Hao was pulled back from his contemplation, and after thinking for a while, Ning Hao said: "I'm fine, by the way, you said that your father is the bishop of the Divine Tower Gate Academy, so can you help me enter the Divine Tower Gate?"
Li Shui'er held her chin and put on the appearance of an old man and said, "Yes, yes, but I don't know who you are and what you want to do?"
"My name is Ning Hao, I grew up in a small mountain village on the border of the Northwest World Desolation, but my hometown suddenly changed, so I wanted to come here to study and become a student here, but my family had no money, so I could only use it to come, but I met robbers in the mountains, I had no way out, I could only choose to jump off the cliff. Next, Ning Hao told Li Shui'er in detail what happened at home and the purpose of coming to the Divine Tower.
Li Shui'er patted Ning Hao's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will help you find the person you are looking for, now I will go to my father first and tell him, as long as my father agrees, then there will be no problem." With that, he ran out.
Time passed minute by minute, Ning Hao was very bored lying on the bed alone, suddenly, a gray shadow flashed on the side of the bed, and the little fox came back, only to see that the little fox still had a fruit half a fist in his mouth, and threw it on the head of Ning Hao's bed, seeing that it meant to give Ning Hao food.
Ning Hao picked up the fruit brought by the little fox in surprise, put it in front of him for a while, and then put it on the side of his nose to smell it, a strange and pungent smell came to his nose, Ning Hao took the fruit and said to the little fox in surprise: "You found this bone disc fruit?"
The little fox lay next to him with a look of ignorance, as if to say: If you want to eat, you can eat it or not, and you won't serve it. “
Ning Hao took the bone continuation fruit in his hand and studied it carefully, this bone continuation fruit is not a valuable fruit, but this fruit is one of the countless fruits that can be eaten directly, and it grows in places where people are rare, and it is a good healing fruit for bone injuries. It's not easy for this little fox to find this kind of fruit! Ning Hao has begun to believe that he was brought here by the little fox, but Ning Hao is still a little puzzled, how did the little fox know that he was coming to this place, is it just a coincidence?
In the blink of an eye, it has been ten days since Ning Hao came to the Divine Tower Gate, and now Ning Hao's hand is completely healed, speaking of which, Ning Hao really wants to thank the little fox, if it weren't for the fact that it brought a bone rejuvenation fruit to Ning Hao every day, Ning Hao would not have gotten better so quickly. Moreover, Li Shui'er also helped Ning Hao go through the procedures for entering the Divine Tower Gate through his father's consent. Today, Ning Hao is officially enrolled in the Divine Tower Gate!
According to Li Shui'er, the Divine Tower Gate is divided into two levels: low-level and high-level, and the realms below the Wheel Movement Realm are all low-level students, and those who have just entered the Wheel Movement Realm like Li Shui'er are barely considered high-level students. And no matter how good or bad your qualifications are, as soon as you reach the age of 30, Shentamen will automatically help you apply for withdrawal. Don't think that a thirty-year-old student is already old enough to lose his teeth, the original lifespan of the cultivator here will increase in the breakthrough of each realm, as long as he breaks through another realm before the end of his lifespan, then the lifespan will increase a little, and the higher the breakthrough realm, the more years of life expectancy will increase, so the thirty years old here is equivalent to the twenty years of ordinary people outside.
Now Ning Hao and Li Shui'er are preparing to report to the Shentamen Senior School District.
As soon as they entered the senior school area of Shentamen Academy, many boys came over to greet Li Shui'er, some Li Shui'er responded with a smile, and some Li Shui'er just ignored the direct passing, ignoring those people, and those people would always scratch the back of their heads, looking at Li Shui'er and Ning Hao behind her suspiciously, suddenly they seemed to have noticed something, looking at Ning Hao's eyes became no longer friendly, Ning Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head, and secretly said in his heart: It seems that this little girl will bring some trouble to my days in the Shentamen.
Finally, Li Shui'er brought Ning Hao to a middle-aged man and said, "Report to Bishop Li, Li Shui'er has brought a new student, Ning Hao, to report." “
As soon as he heard Li Shui'er call the middle-aged man Bishop Li, and looked at Li Shui'er smiling at the middle-aged man's hippie face without the appearance of a student, Ning Hao guessed that this man was Li Shui'er's father, Li Zheng.
I saw Li Zheng glance at Li Shui'er, then coughed lightly, and said with a very serious expression: "You are a new student, ask Shui'er if you don't understand a lot of rules, you must know that I am usually very busy, so if there is something that even Shui'er can't solve, you go to your assistant teacher Huang Desheng, what will he solve, understand?"
Ning Hao nodded slightly, "Got it, Bishop." "Now it's okay if you want to go to the Dharma room, it's okay to be here, in short, don't run around, I'm going to take you to the Divine Pagoda to practice in the afternoon, you know?" After speaking, Li Zheng turned around and left.
After Li Zheng left, Ning Hao asked Li Shui'er next to him suspiciously, "What is the Divine Tower?"
Li Shui'er smiled mysteriously and said, "You just came, you don't know anything." Immediately afterwards, Li Shui'er introduced the origin of the Divine Tower Gate to Ning Hao in detail.
About two hundred years ago, Yan Wuru, the founder of the Divine Tower Gate, was a master whose strength had reached the middle level of the Divine Soul Realm, but Yan Wuru was not the protector of any family, he was the result of his own step-by-step hard cultivation. After that, he traveled south and north and made a lot of friends, but for a cultivator who had no background, he had almost nothing in the pills, martial arts, and even money, so Yan Wuru often lamented how important the assistance of materials was. Because of this incident, Yan Wuru had a flash of inspiration, and discussed with a few friends he met back then, and taught children to cultivate here, as long as you can afford the tuition.
The entire human world is almost controlled by the four major families, but they only control the land and power, and do not control the development of people themselves, some people start their own businesses and become merchants, but the lifespan of ordinary people is too short for a cultivator, so if they want to increase their lifespan, they must cultivate. However, without the guidance of others, a person cannot say anything without a teacher, and most of the cultivation methods are in the hands of the four major families, and it is even more difficult to enter the four major families than to ascend to the sky. At this time, the Divine Tower Gate appeared, and these merchants thought that they would send their children to practice and inherit their family business in the future, so the Divine Tower Gate became more and more popular.
Yan Wuru didn't know that it would have such a good effect, in order to make the students practice faster, he established a divine pagoda that could release spiritual power twice as thick as the outside, and called himself the Divine Pagoda Gate Academy. In just two hundred years, Shentamen has become a holy place for countless ordinary families to send their children in. Now, with Yan Wuru, who is strong enough to reach the middle level of the Divine Soul Realm, as the chief bishop, ten Dharma protectors of the upper level of the Great Luo Realm, as well as hundreds of bishop assistants, and tens of thousands of students, it is also an extremely terrifying force organization in the entire human world.
After listening to Li Shui'er's introduction, Ning Hao understood that Shentamen still had such a history. However, Li Shuier also said that many of these students are from mediocre families and almost can't even afford to pay the tuition. Ning Hao said with some worry: "Shui'er, I don't seem to have paid the tuition yet." “
Li Shui'er chuckled and said, "It's okay, I've already helped you get it, you were recommended by my father, and there is no need for tuition in the next few months." “
Ning Hao thought in his heart: I didn't expect such a convenient thing.
Just when Ning Hao wanted to ask Li Shui'er a few questions, a man who was a little older than Ning Hao, who looked white and clean, like the young master of the polar landlord, came to Li Shui'er, and behind him, there were more than a dozen young people who were about the same age as him.
The man glanced at Ning Hao and said with a smile: "Shui'er, this is your new friend, can you introduce him to me." “
