Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Friendship Ball
The yin and yang vortex calmed down under the control of his mind, and Ji Dong slowly opened his eyes, ending this period of cultivation. The moment he opened his eyes, the whole room seemed to shine a little, and the two eyes shimmered with black and golden light respectively, and in this two-color light, there was a layer of light white luster.
When Ji Dong got up from the bed, the vision in his eyes had disappeared, and when he calculated the time, it was time for dinner. Now is the time for him to grow his body, and the amount of food is particularly large, if you want to say that the most satisfying place for Ji Dong in the Yin-Yang Academy, it can be regarded as a cafeteria. A variety of highly nutritious delicacies change almost every day, and they are never repeated.
Walking out of the door, Ji Dong came to the cafeteria, as soon as he entered the door, he was a little stunned, could it be that he remembered the time wrong? No, his biological clock was very punctual. Never missed it before.
The cafeteria of Nuoda was empty at this time, and it was even empty without any food preparation.
There is also a watch in this world.,Although the principle seems to be related to magic.,Ji Dong didn't figure it out.,But the time is still very accurate.,It's twelve hours displayed.,Compared to the previous life.,It's easier to distinguish between morning and late.。 Ji Dong carefully looked at the magic watch hanging in the cafeteria, the time was right, it was dinner time.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, he said to himself: "Is the cafeteria on strike? Are you going to be hungry? Forget it, let's go and eat barbecue." I haven't been out of the academy for a few days. ”
While thinking, Ji Dong turned around and walked outside, and before he could take a few steps, he ran into a person head-on, "Ji Dong, you are here! I've been looking for you for a long time." Why aren't you hurrying yet? ”
The person who came was Ji Yexuan of the Wu Earth Department, and as soon as he grabbed Ji Dong, he strode outside.
Ji moved his wrist, and the magic power quietly oscillated, Ji Yeyan only felt that his hand was slightly hot, and he subconsciously let go of his grasp.
"Senior brother, why are you in such a hurry? I was just going to ask someone, why is there no food in the cafeteria today?"
Ji Yeyan looked at Ji Dong as if he was looking at a monster, and patted his forehead, "Oh my God, my little ancestor." Haven't you read the announcement? Tonight is the day of the sorority ball! There is food there, and naturally the cafeteria will not provide food and drink. When Brother Fury saw that you didn't come, he specially asked me to come to you. It turns out that you have forgotten about it a long time ago. I'm convinced. ”
Hearing Ji Yeyan say this, Ji Dong remembered that indeed, three days had passed since he saw the original announcement, and tonight was the time for the ball. However, he really didn't have any idea about this ballroom, so he stopped and said, "Senior brother, you don't have to participate in this ball. Moreover, I am still young, and this kind of dance is not for me. ”
Ji Dong has been fifteen years old in the past few days, and in the Five Elements Continent, he has reached adulthood at the age of sixteen, and he has not yet reached the age of adulthood. But a series of changes in recent days have made him look much more mature than when he first arrived at Tiangan Academy, his height has reached about 1.75 meters, his shoulders are broad, although he is still a little thin, but his arrogant temperament and not very handsome face also have an indescribable attraction.
Ji Yeyan smiled, "What's small! When I was your age, I had already experienced wind and rain." Go and see, Big Brother Fury is waiting for you. This is also a rare day for our Yin-Yang Academy disciples to gather together. Even if you're not looking for your partner, you always have to eat. It's good to go get something to eat. There are a lot of delicious things to eat today. The academy specially purchased an ice and snow arowana in the ice ocean in the northern frontier of the Beishui Empire from a large chamber of commerce. ”
"Ice and snow Arowana, what is that?" Ji Dong asked curiously.
Ji Yeyan smiled and said, "The Ice and Snow Arowana is said to be a subspecies of dragons, with a body length of more than three meters, and it is extremely powerful in the seawater, and it likes the cold the most. It is a fifth-order magical beast in itself. The meat is extremely tender, delicious and has a hint of the sea. Its fish roe is even more delicious. That's the main course of the day. Let's go and try it. ”
Ji Dong was already a little hungry, and when he heard Ji Yeyan say this, he couldn't help but eat and move, and it was nothing to participate in the dance, so he left when he was full, wouldn't it be good.
Thinking of this, he no longer insisted, and walked out of the Yin and Yang Academy together under the leadership of Ji Yeyan.
The location of the sorority dance is very close to the Yin-Yang School, and there is no need to excavate the teaching building, but the open-air auditorium on the top floor of the earthen teaching building.
Although it has been a while since he joined the Yin-Yang Academy, Ji Dong has spent most of his time cultivating in the Yin-Yang Academy except for going out for a preliminary examination, and this is the first time he has set foot on the higher floors of the Tu Department Teaching Building.
The earth teaching building has a total of five floors, the main body is dominated by heavy yellow and gray buildings, representing the two departments of Wutu and Jitu, perhaps because the Tiangan College was established in the territory of the Middle-earth Empire, or it may be the respect of the status of the earth system in the Five Elements, this teaching building itself is also the most magnificent of the five major teaching buildings. Each floor is more than five meters high, with a solid granite floor and a marble staircase with gilded accents, giving it a majestic and rock-solid look.
Ji Yeyan led Ji Dong all the way to the fifth floor, and at the last staircase, four students about twenty years old guarded there. These are the official cadets of the two crowns, and they are in charge of guarding the door of the open-air ball. It can be seen from this that the students of the Yin-Yang Academy have a very respectful status in the Tiangan Academy. The same students, but the regular students have to serve these special students.
Of course, the regular students will not be dissatisfied with this, but will feel very honored. Some of the higher-ranked students in the Yin-Yang Academy even surpass most of the teachers in the academy in terms of strength, so why not serve them?
"Senior Ji. The four regular trainees obviously knew Ji Yeyan, and as soon as they saw him come up, they immediately bowed to him.
Ji Yeyan nodded, and walked inside with Ji Dong.
A formal student hurriedly stepped forward, "Senior Ji, who is this?"
Ji Dong has appeared in public too few times, and only that time is the exchange day, no wonder these official students don't know him.
Ji Yeyan smiled, "What? Do you still think I'm doing favoritism? This is the No. 49 student of the Yin Yang Academy." Ji Dong. ”
Ji Dong's stomach was really a little hungry, so he took out his special token and handed it over, and several formal students couldn't help but show a little envy when they saw him so young, and after checking his token a little, they immediately returned it to him.
Ascending the last flight of stairs, when Ji Yeyan pushed open the door to the rooftop in front, Ji Dong suddenly had a feeling of enlightenment.
The night was fresh and a little cool, and after a whole day of cultivation, he suddenly felt that his brain was clear, and he breathed out, and the qi and blood in his body surged, and he was indescribably happy.
Walking out of the door, a huge auditorium comes into view, on the roof of this earthen teaching building, the floor is paved with black marble with gold edges, although it is on the roof, the various arrangements are no different from the real auditorium, on both sides of the neat long tables and chairs, on which there are all kinds of food, there are large and comfortable sofas in the corners. The entire roof of the building is illuminated by more than 50 glazed palace lamps, as if it were daylight. In the center is a large circular dance floor, and on the north side of the rooftop auditorium, a professional band is playing melodious music.
Looking up at the sky, what you see is a starry sky, and when you look at the front of you, it is all noble and gorgeous. It's a really amazing feeling and it's very refreshing.
The students of the Yin Yang Academy, some of whom Ji Dong knew and some who didn't, all changed into gorgeous dresses today, and were talking in twos and threes, or simply eating something. Leisurely, indescribably freehand.
In the auditorium, a total of twenty waiters, ten men and ten women, were interspersed, serving a variety of drinks and drinks, and there was no doubt that these were the ordinary students who had been selected for the ball. It turns out that their so-called participation is just to serve.
Ji Dong's eyes stayed on a huge semicircular table on the south side, behind which two huge wine cabinets were filled with at least a thousand kinds of wines, and there were three bartenders busy mixing bartenders inside.
"It looks familiar. These are all people that Boss Fury has brought in from the Bartenders' Guild. I'm also one of the bartenders today, so I'm going to get busy first. Big Brother Fury is over there. Hime-yo pointed to the place where the food was kept. Fury was standing there munching on food, and no one in the auditorium was chatting with him.
Ji Dongmu sent Ji Yeyan to the wine, looking at the gorgeous dance party in front of him, he couldn't help but lose his mind a little, and recalled his past life in his mind, at that time, wasn't he often invited to such a dance? There are also higher standards than this. I remember that I had a rule that I would only make one glass of wine at any dance party and invite one of the most beautiful ladies in attendance to taste it. Any girl who has drunk her own wine at the dance party will become the focus of entertainment gossip after the ball, and is called the Dionysian hand-pick.
Time has passed, and now he is no longer a bacchus who hand-picks beautiful women, but just a student in the Tiangan Academy of the Five Elements Continent. Memories are a kind of beauty, but it doesn't mean that Ji Dong doesn't like his current life. A person can have two ways to live, he is already very satisfied, not to mention, in this life, he has even known the flame, the perfection that haunts his dreams. Compared with the flames, what are those Bacchus hand-picked girls in the previous life?
"Ji Dong. A tentative voice sounded from the side. Ji Dong turned his head to see that this was Lan Bao'er.
Today's Lan Bao'er is particularly beautiful, wearing a purple evening dress with the same color as her eyes, and her long silver hair is not coiled on top of her head like other female students of the Yin Yang Academy, but is just draped behind her back, soft and coordinated. Thin grease powder, looking at Ji Dong with surprise in his eyes. The girl's unique fresh breath was sent into Ji Dong's nose under the evening breeze, and she was intoxicated by the smell.
"I thought you weren't coming. Lan Bao'er walked in front of Ji Dong in a few steps and looked at him with a smile.
Ji Dong smiled bitterly: "I didn't plan to come, but the canteen won't fire today, and if you don't come, you won't have anything to eat." What do you say I'm going to do?"
Lan Bao'er chuckled and said, "I don't know how many people want to participate in this ball, but you are very reluctant." As soon as the prom begins, if you're hungry, go grab a bite to eat. ”
Ji Dong nodded, "I'll go eat something and go back." You're having fun. With that, he walked straight to Fury, who was also eating.
Looking at Ji Dong's back and his school uniform, which was different from the gorgeous clothes present, Lan Bao'er couldn't help but lose her mind for a while, Ji Dong, Ji Dong, why do you always maintain such a sense of distance from me? Am I not beautiful enough?
Ji Dong came to Fury's side, Fury laughed and said, "Little junior brother, come quickly, this thing is rare." Eat more. ”
In a huge tray in front of Fury, there is a large fish three meters long, the body of the fish is cut from the middle, the bones have been removed, and the crystal white and tender flesh is cut up like flower petals, and the thickness is even. On one side of the plate, there are some fish roe the size of soybean grains, like ice beads. There is no doubt that this is the ice and snow arowana in Ji Ye's mouth.
I didn't see that this fish looked like a dragon queen, but he was proficient in fine wine and had a certain study of food, and it could be seen from the color of the fish that this fish was extremely fresh, and it was the best to eat raw.
Picking up a plate from the side and putting the seasoning away, Ji Dong stood next to Fury and picked up a piece of fish meat with a fork, dipped it in the plate and put it in his mouth.
Suddenly, the taste of the fish mixed with the seasoning melted in the mouth like a sweet spring, and the cold and fresh smell of the sea instantly filled the senses, and even Ji Dong's pickiness couldn't help but admire, "What a fresh sashimi." The taste is very pure, there is no miscellaneous taste, senior brother, you are very good at choosing a place! ”
Fury smiled and said, "Little junior brother, since I met you, I have laughed more than in the past few years combined. In their eyes, I am the cold and heartless Thunder. Naturally, I didn't dare to get closer. That's fine, let's enjoy this good thing first. It's not that I don't ask them to eat. To be honest, if I hadn't heard that there was a rare ice and snow arowana at this ball, I wouldn't have come. ”
Hearing him say this, Ji Dong couldn't help but laugh too, "We really deserve to be senior brothers! I'm here for this." ”
The two brothers were unceremonious, eating a lot, choosing a good place to eat, and eating fish roe was like a whirlwind and clouds. The umami brought by the cracking of each fish roe in the mouth made even Ji Dong a little greedy.
Even if the other students looked this way, they only dared to peek out of the corner of their eyes, but fortunately, this ice and snow arowana was extremely large, even if Ji Dong and Fury, the two brothers, could not eat it all.
