In the early morning of the cold lake, the sky is just dawning, there is a faint white light of fish belly on the horizon, the cold wind is swishing, rolling up a burst of dust and smoke away, looking down from the sky, only desolation and loneliness.

In front of the Martian camp, an off-road vehicle was parked, looking at Xiao Se in front of him, Qin Lang didn't say anything, wrapped his jacket, and stood motionless in front of the car.

The cold lake in October is still relatively cold, and it is only about a point, except for this black off-road car that can be started at any time, and the surroundings are quiet.

Zhou Shaohua put his luggage into the trunk with a large bag, and after the inspection, he was ready to get into the car, looked at Qin Lang's state, didn't say anything, and walked to the side.

In the car this time, there were three people, Qin Lang, Zhou Shaohua, and Luo Yingying, who were about to leave Lenghu Town and go to the mysterious Xuan Academy.

The handover of the three was completed three days ago, and for this matter, they stayed in Lenghu for another three days.

As for Luo Yingying's parents and Lin Xuan, a week ago, they dealt with the problems left by Fu Changmin and left first.

Regarding the elusiveness of Luo Ziyang and Lin Huinan, after Luo Yingying vented her emotions, she got used to it, and she has been like this for so many years.

Luo Yingying was the first to get in the car, looking at Qin Lang and Zhou Shaohua, who had not been in the car for a long time, and did not urge.

How to say it, after staying in Lenghu for four years, so many things happened during the period, and this time, I am afraid that I will never come back, reluctance, sighing, and complicated emotions, Luo Yingying can still understand.

Qin Lang and Zhou Shaohua stood in front of the car, looking at the white sky on the horizon, gradually brightening, the two of them were not hypocritical, they just sighed and turned to get into the car.

The engine of the off-road vehicle roared, the tires turned, crushing the sand and gravel on the ground, rolling up a puff of smoke, and disappearing away.

Goodbye, Cold Lake!

……

The off-road vehicle went all the way to the south, and according to the information provided by Lin Xuan and Luo Ziyang, the location of the Xuan Academy was not in the imperial capital, but in Sichuan.

And this information was only told by Qin Lang and the others the day before they left Lenghu.

As for how to get there after arriving in Sichuan, I didn't say anything, just dropped a sentence, someone would come to answer.

Qin Lang was a little speechless by Lin Xuan and Luo Ziyang, but after thinking about it, he could leave.

Xuan Academy, the most mysterious academy in my country, does not have one, even high-tech personnel like Luo Yingying who work in the imperial capital and have more information than Qin Lang.

The cognition of the Xuan Academy is similar to what Qin Lang understands.

The 100th anniversary of its founding is a mystical academy that teaches courses based on metaphysics, and performs all kinds of supernatural events and various things related to extraterrestrial civilizations all year round.

In the rest, I don't know anything.

Qin Lang and the three of them were able to enter the Xuan Academy for further study, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the ancestral tomb was smoking.

And this time, the distance from the thief is at least 1,700 kilometers, even if Qin Lang doesn't eat or drink, he has to drive for 24 hours.

Fortunately, there were three people driving this time, and the time was relatively sufficient, and it was only good to drive for 8 hours a day.

After three days of traveling, the three finally arrived in Sichuan, to be precise, to a prefecture-level city in the Sichuan Basin.

The Sichuan Basin is located in the central and eastern part of Sichuan, China, and Chongqing, and the three of them just got off the highway toll station, and were handed a note by a toll collector.

Following the clues on the note, the three drove to the suburbs.

After driving for more than 100 kilometers, there is an endless mountain range in front of you, and below the mountain range, a dense forest covers you.

The car couldn't get up, so the three of them could only drop the off-road vehicle and hike into the mountain, saying that it was a mountain, or more precisely, a tourist attraction built on the mountain.

The three of them carried shoulder bags and walked towards the excavated stone steps step by step, like backpackers.

The stone steps meander up, there is no end in sight, and the three of them walk step by step, and from time to time there are some tourists passing by.

Zhou Shaohua gasped, walked through a stone staircase, and sat on the stone bench next to him, out of breath.

"I said Lao Qin, we are here to study, or to climb the mountain, if you want to say that the Xuan Academy is open here, I don't believe it, we drove more than 1,700 kilometers, just to climb the mountain here."

Qin Lang, who took off his jacket and tied it to his body, walked up to Zhou Shaohua, patted his shoulder, and said softly.

"Don't complain, since the clue says that the location is here, it must be here, it's been tossing and tossing for so long, it's the last step, it's impossible to give up halfway."

Zhou Shaohua nodded, sighed, and with Qin Lang's support, he slowly walked towards the stone steps up, with no end in sight.

A tourist passing by saw the two stumbling a little, and casually handed his bamboo stick to the two.

"At a glance, you can see that it is a lack of exercise, if you are tired of mountaineering like you, na, give you some tools, at least save some effort with this."

The two looked up, and the person who handed them the bamboo sticks was a young man, who looked to be in his early twenties.

With a white round hat, fair skin, and a smile on his face, he should be a college student.

Zhou Shaohua took the bamboo stick, and just wanted to say thank you, but the college student wearing a white hat ran to the front with a smoke, and the speed was the same as a rabbit, and after a while, it disappeared.

"It's better to be young!" Zhou Shaohua looked at this scene and sighed a little.

"I said what you guys were muttering there." Luo Yingying, who was not far behind her, quickly caught up.

Qin Lang shook his head with a smile and said, "It's nothing, I met a more interesting young man." ”

As she spoke, she raised the bamboo stick in her hand, Luo Yingying nodded, and was just about to continue walking, when her eyes suddenly fell on the bamboo stick.

Suddenly, Luo Yingying's face was stunned, and she grabbed the bamboo stick, "Qin Lang, look!" ”

Qin Lang's eyes swept away, and his smiling face froze, because on this bamboo stick, a line of words was carved impressively.

"If you want to be admitted to the hospital, I'll wait for you in front."

"That young man, from the Metaphysical Academy?"

Zhou Shaohua looked at the words on the bamboo stick, a little heartbroken, he regretted that he didn't find out earlier, so that he could catch the young man as soon as possible, so that he wouldn't have to catch up now.

How long is it going to waste.

Zhou Shaohua's face was full of rejection.

Qin Lang just shook his head helplessly, the opportunity he missed was missed, since that young man left them a clue, at least he could be sure that the Xuan Academy was ahead.

Thinking about it this way, the three of them didn't suffer a loss, it was just a delay of some time.

The three of them immediately perked up and walked towards the stone steps above.

As Qin Lang thought, after walking a kilometer of steps, there was obviously a different mark on the ground, and he walked down the bifurcation mark.

There are fewer and fewer tourists around, and the breeze is still blowing, and the branches are swaying, but at the end, it becomes a little quiet, and the breeze is a little cool.

Clouds and mist gradually rose all around, and in the end, Qin Lang didn't know where he had gone.

According to the ground markings, after the last fork, the stone steps in front of it disappeared, replaced by a white cloud that filled the open road.

And on the side of the broken road, on a stone bench, a young man in a white hat sat there as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Fiddling with a bamboo stick in his hand, looking at Qin Lang and the three of them who were sitting on the ground with almost no strength, said with a smile.

"Welcome to the Xuan Academy."
