Chapter XVIII
Xu Yi, the deacon of the academy, was eating his favorite rainbow trout, and he didn't like this old woman who bothered him.
As a deacon, looking at people's eyes is the most basic skill.
At first glance, he saw that the old woman was wearing only the most simple thorn dress, and her hands were also full of calluses, all of which showed that this was just a most ordinary old woman. And it is an old woman whose family is very poor and needs to do some work to make a living.
A young girl in a cotton jacket of floral cloth supported the woman.
The woman's purpose was very simple, just to let the girl next to her, her granddaughter, enter the state academy for further study.
In the Tang Dynasty, if you can enter the National Academy, as long as you can graduate and not be dropped out of school, it means that you will definitely have a good future in the future.
This kind of person who comes to intercede, Xu Yi has seen too much, but except for those forces that can really move the big people in the courtyard, few have succeeded.
"Sir, my nephew said back then that my heirs can go to school for free......"
An impatient look appeared on Xu Yi's face, this is the National Courtyard, except for the Holy Queen Niangniang, who can take this place seriously?
Even the eldest grandson who weighed the world, and the nobleman in the palace did not have the right to let students enter the state academy at will. This is the foundation of a country.
"Who is your nephew, is it the Lord of the Temple or the Eldest Sun, or which His Royal Highness the Prince?"
His face was unabashedly sarcastic.
......
The old woman's face was a little embarrassed, and the girl was even more ashamed.
"My nephew used to be the head of this academy, and although I haven't contacted him in forty years, I believe he is still here......"
After Zhou Sheng left. The Ye family quickly declined.
The queen of heaven has long wanted to clean up these courtiers who are loyal to the Li family, but it was because of Zhou Sheng's existence back then. But later, Zhou Sheng compromised and came to this Cangshan to recuperate, so there was no need for those families to exist. Knocked out of the dust.
Even if you want to compromise with the queen of heaven, it's too late, that person doesn't need these wall grass.
......
......
The Ye family declined, and there were also heirs of the Ye family who came to see him. However, Zhou Sheng was busy calculating the sequence of times, and he thought these people were irritable, so he drove them all out.
The world is the great sea, once a son of heaven and a courtier. Who can tell the things of this world? In the first half of your life, you may enjoy all the wealth, and in the second half of your life, you may suffer a lot.
The old Aunt Ye took out the yellowed letter from her cuff, Zhou Sheng was busy, and there were not many letters that she really wrote. And my aunt kept saying that she was doing well, so he didn't care much.
Later, the correspondence was cut off.
Xu Yi's eyes skimmed, looking at the extremely familiar scribbled handwriting on it, and felt that his mouth was a little dry.
The handwriting is familiar. I believe that most people in the academy are familiar with it. Although it is not clear who wrote the handwriting, the tattered wooden sign with scribbled handwriting has been hanging at the entrance of the college, and whoever comes in will see it.
It's very unsightly, but it's been hanging for many years and still hasn't been taken off or thrown away. This speaks for itself.
He won't admit it, this kind of handwriting is too easy to recognize, and that feeling can't be wrong.
......
......
At this time, he also recalled the legend of the academy, the young man in a wheelchair who sometimes got up early to run, and could occasionally meet in the snow garden.
The reason why it is said to be a young old man is that the old man is getting younger and younger.
The gray hair of the early years has turned black again, and decades of wind and frost have not changed him in the slightest.
With the red bean seeds, he had completed everything his body needed, and even the white hair caused by the consumption of a lot of wisdom had turned black again. 24/7. The red bean sprouts in his body will release fresh airflow, making his body full of youth and vitality.
"Wait...... Wait, I'll ask my boss ......."
Xu Yi felt that he was full of inexhaustible motivation and began to run. A fat body dragged and dragged.
......
Zhou Sheng looked at this familiar person, this woman grew up with him. Although he didn't have much emotion anymore, when he saw the gray hair, he still didn't feel like a taste in his heart.
"Aunt~~"
He got up from his wheelchair, his body was almost healed, and the fresh breath of the red beans helped him a lot. It's just that I'm used to being a wheelchair and don't want to change it.
"Liufeng, you are still the same as when you were young."
Looking at the young man who had not changed in the slightest, the old woman stretched out her hand and wanted to touch it, but thinking of the other party's noble status, she couldn't help but take it back.
As the president of the National Academy, no one would despise him.
"It's your granddaughter, it's beautiful......"
Zhou Sheng smiled and pinched the little guy's head. He left very little cause and effect in this world, because he knew that he would eventually leave and return to his own world. After all, he is just a passerby, a reverse journey in the world.
He left his aunt here, thinking that after the woman passed away quietly, he could leave after this cause and effect was over.
With his fresh breath, even if she doesn't practice, she can live for decades longer. He doesn't want people to practice anymore, and birth, old age, sickness and death are normal laws. He practiced all his life, but in the end he became a lonely old man.
......
......
Every night, I still sit on the wall as usual, looking at the thousands of stars outside, and chatting with Shui Liudong.
The remnant soul of this innate god and demon actually felt very lonely. Their companions are gone, and in an era that does not belong to them, their remnants are also discarded by the times.
In fact, they had already started talking at the time of the years.
A young girl climbed the fence and grew up in the countryside, and her kung fu climbing the wall was also very neat. Her name is Red Candle, she is Zhou Sheng's niece in this life, and she is the granddaughter of Zhou Sheng's aunt. During the day she was very shy, but at night, her eyes released a lively wildness, which is youth.
"Uncle, why don't you get old?"
"Because I'm a monster ......"
"I heard that the students of the National Academy can practice, can you teach me?"
The girl's eyes had a glimmer of hope. She didn't want to live her life like this. Looking at the look in his eyes, Zhou Sheng said that he was like this when he was young. It's just that at that time, my heart was wilder. What he wants is to overthrow the imperial court and become the emperor himself. Later, I felt that this goal was not interesting, so I simply practiced and played.
"There are courses in the academy dedicated to this area, and you can choose an area that you like to study......
Red Candle bit her lip and said in a voice not much louder than a mosquito's humming, "I...... I want you to teach me ......"
"Yes".
"Really?"
"Of course".
Red Candle has no talent, so it was very difficult to understand the introduction of stars. Naxing ......
The thread of the stars is thinner than the thread of the marshmallow drawing.
......
......
Many years later, the aunt left quietly, and Zhou Sheng finally decided to leave. He was tired of living here.
Red Candle made him a lot of shoes, and they all fit well.
He came to the palace and decided to meet the Empress Wu. He brought with him the manuscript that he had calculated for many years, and his cultivation had reached a bottleneck, and he needed to go outside to get greater development.
"You can go to Tallinn ......"
On the top of the continent, there is a real Tallinn, Vanta.
This is also Zhou Sheng's train of thought. Take a look at Tallinn and enter one of the many wilderness areas.
It is only in those barren areas that numerous treasures can be found.
Zhou Sheng took out a general outline of his own calculations, these, these are some foundations. The really useful ones are in the mind.
"I'll be back~~"
"Hopefully, the outside world is dangerous. It's not imaginable, so I'm lucky......"
Zhou Sheng disappeared, making Empress Wu's brows furrow inadvertently. For the person in front of her, Empress Wu has always been unpredictable, and just now she felt that there was a terrifying power contained in his body, and her divine eyes couldn't see what it was.
......
......
The spiraling world of Tallinn is constantly spinning, and the upper continent is the richest, and the higher it goes, the richer it becomes.
Mineral resources. Mountains and rivers are all blessed land.
After passing through the rich worlds, you will come to the top of the world of Tallinn. From the outside, only the topmost piece of land in this pyramid-like Tallinn is the brightest. Like the jewel set in the pyramid.
This continent, even the tens of thousands of continents below, is not as rich as this continent combined.
The continent itself is a crystal.
This is a kind of divine crystal, and the sand and gravel on it are all golden sand, and the grains are round and fragrant.
Soon, I came to the mainland, looking ahead, pagodas one after another.
It seems to have come to a Buddhist temple, to the place where the Buddhist gate buries relics, these pagodas are plants that grow on the ground, they are living beings and not living beings, between two kinds of life forms.
They can absorb energy to grow, and can be cut down and used as food, which is much better than asparagus.
The more layers a pagoda has, the more powerful it becomes.
Those pagodas with more than two hundred floors have evolved into living beings, have their own wisdom, and are themselves holy level cultivators.
It is rare to see the existence of a pagoda beyond a thousand floors, this pagoda has a strong aura on its body, rolling up a storm, even Zhou Sheng is unwilling to provoke, this is a legendary pagoda plant.
......
......
This pagoda plantation forest is the vegetable garden of the pagoda owner.
There is only one city in this continent, and that is the central pagoda city, which is a pagoda world.
This tower is very great and very majestic.
The whole city looks like a pagoda.
In fact, this pagoda is the pinnacle jewel of this sacred place in Tallinn. This topmost Divine Crystal World is only the pedestal that carries the pagoda.
This tower is the body of the tower owner.
However, as early as when that being incarnated as an acquired god and demon, he abandoned his original body and became an independent life form.
The pagoda has more than 10,000 floors.
Each layer has a large world, and the higher you go, the more terrifying the world becomes. On the top floor, where the tower owner lives.
Zhou Sheng entered the world of the pagoda and rose layer by layer. The world below is basically ordinary life, and there is nothing to be nostalgic for.
When you go to the third thousandth floor, this layer is the upper and lower center, and it is also a business platform, so the number of strong people is many times more than that of other layers, and it is more prosperous.
In the very center, there is a gold list.
......
......
This is the gold list of missions, and if you can complete the mission, you can get the generous bonuses and treasures on it. The people who post the tasks are registered with Tallinn, and there is no deception at all.
As the ruler of these worlds, Tallinn has the most powerful power.
Tallinn, the biggest king here, is a force directly under the tower owner.
Most of the tasks are to find treasure, as a mercenary. It is dangerous to go to the Badlands, so you need to hire a strong man to protect it. And getting the ruins of the barren land, that can make people rich.
There are also hunting some beast herds, taking the blood of gods and demons in their bodies to make medicines.
Zhou Sheng thought about it for a while and decided to blend into the system first.
The Tallinn Guard, the law enforcement officer of these worlds, is also the most powerful force to protect Tallinn from aggression.
Being able to become a Tallinn guard, whether you go out or stay here, is a good protective film.
......
......
He saw the selection trial of the Tallinn Guard, which was to go directly to the outer continent through the teleportation array inside the tower, and kill the beasts that attacked there.
These crazy murderous beasts are too terrifying, numerous, not afraid of death, and reproduce quickly, they are simply natural weapons.
A general dressed in blue jade stood on a peripheral continent, he was General Tari, a powerful legend and one of the eight followers of the tower master.
Legends are not to be underestimated.
Legends are different from saints, legends have touched the threshold of true gods and demons, not only their eyebrows, but even their own bodies are transforming into gods and demons.
Outside this continent are scattered continental fragments, those are all continents that have been attacked by beast groups, and on those fragments you can see groups of crazy beasts entrenched.
These can't be called ordinary beasts, they are all divine beasts, demonic beasts, but they just lack wisdom. But that doesn't stop them from being powerful.
......
......
A faint curtain of light separates the world of Tallinn from the outside.
The trial will be cast into the outside world, the world of the fragments of the continents outside. If you can survive there for a day, you can pinch and blast the small towers that you distribute, and then teleport in.
It's not attack season for the beast herds, and the beast herds left on the continental fragments are the oldest, and the least numerous. Despite this, less than one percent of the people who were able to come back were very cruel.
A burst of teleportation power was acting on his body, and he wanted to go outside to take a look at these crazy beasts affected by the resentment of gods and demons, and see if he could extract the breath of gods and demons from them and let his red bean seedlings grow.
......
Outside, an ancient aura of savagery permeated his body, and he seemed to hear the heartbeat of the earth, which was the heartbeat of the gods.
Looking into the distance, it was desolate. It's the result of the horrible creatures that once fought.
The ravines and vast riverbeds on the earth are no longer flowing water, and they are crystallized by the flames. If it weren't for seeing some of these ancient fossils, it's hard to imagine that there was once an infinitely wide river that existed in this barren land.
The sound of war drums was heard, the indestructible sound of ancient war drums. After countless eras, it still resounded in the world. Anyone who hears this sound will have their blood boiling and will to fight.
A god and demon beast that was affected by the resentment of gods and demons attacked it, and it turned out to be an Archaeopteryx......
