Chapter 13 The Academy

"Click, click" knock on the door almost immediately.

"Ranran, open the door. Tang Xuehui said quietly.

Didn't you just cry? I wanted to yell at her, but I bit my lower lip and forced myself back. Am I a little afraid of Sister Hui?······ I sat cross-legged on the couch, too lazy to open it, and with a wave of my right hand, the door was sucked open by the power of Han Yuyu's palm.

Tang Xuehui stood at the door, calm and calm but slightly surprised, and then her eyes were extremely eager, she sat on the chair in front of the desk, and said softly: "Ranran, are you angry with me?"

"How could I be mad at you?" I replied sullenly.

Tang Xuehui sighed: "Actually, they are telling the truth, I am indeed Liu Ru's daughter, and I did live in that poor and lowly place······"

I listened silently, not saying a word, not bothering to use my mind to listen to what she said.

She continued: "A few months ago, I thought about it······ The sixth day of the third month?probably, right······ On the seventh day of the third month, my biological mother stabbed herself to death with a knife because she was too poor to live in poverty······" She choked up a little, "That day······ I shouldn't be so fond of reading······ I went to study at the Nanshan Bookstore again, and stayed from noon until 6 p.m., otherwise my mother would ······"

Tang Xuehui stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears: "Later, my mother adopted me, that is, the wife of the former prime minister, the widow lived at home, and saw that I was quite educated, so she adopted me, my surname is Liu, and now I have my mother's surname Tang, so," Tang Xuehui smiled, "Although I am different from you since I was a child, I believe that the past has long passed, isn't it?"

I didn't bother to say anything, and I answered listlessly, and when she saw that I was always depressed, she changed the subject, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "How do you know how to spell? Why don't you tell me?"

"No," I wanted to say, but I didn't like you to take out a book to show off, and I felt that I was too petty, so I sighed heavily, "There's no need to mention it, it's not a big deal······

"How do you practice? Do you have a book? Show me if I can make it?"

As soon as I finished the first book on the table, and the second volume was not yet taken out of the bookcase under the bed, I tilted my head and said, "Yes, yes, it's the one on the desk." ”

She eagerly picked up the book, almost a little greedy, and after only a few lines, she looked up and asked, "I want to practice too, you······ Can you lend me?"

"Yes. ”

Tang Xuehui pointed to the first line and said: "You read the book says that the first level of Hanyu Divine Skill, some people are easy, but some people can't live their whole life." Can't pass, don't force it, can you guide me?"

I smiled: "Sister Hui, you want to learn so much, why don't you pass the first level here, you are Bingxue smart, where do you need my guidance." ”

Tang Xuehui smiled lightly, the pear vortex was shallow, even if it was only the two of us sitting opposite each other, she smiled without showing her teeth, looking gentle and graceful.

I instructed her to sit cross-legged, to clear her thoughts, meditate, and then wave her palm to freeze the water in the teacup.

is getting wester, and Tang Xuehui has tried many times. The water in the teacup was originally warm, but now it is cold, not because of the wind in her palm, but because it is naturally cold.

I said patiently: "Sister Hui, as long as you can eliminate distracting thoughts, don't be distracted, it's very simple, don't be anxious." ”

Tang Xuehui frowned deeply, a fierce and violent color flashed on her face, she jumped up, snatched the first volume of the Hanyu Sutra from my hand, tore it to pieces, slammed her left foot on the ground, and rushed out of the door.

I was stunned, and the fragments flew around me like paper butterflies.

The next day, Zheng Hao and I had already reconciled and frolicked together, but Tang Xuehui hadn't come yet, I was really not sure if she would forgive me.

Tang Xuehui's shadow appeared at the door, and as usual, she lightly rubbed the fat powder, which made her even more pretty.

"Sister Hui!" I greeted her, she smiled lightly, interrupted me: "Ranran, I was really rude yesterday, I made you laugh, I'm really sorry to be angry for a while, tearing up your scriptures, you ······ Do I blame me?"

"It's okay," I breathed a sigh of relief, "it's my fault." Well, I've already practiced it. It's okay, it's okay. ”

Tang Hui was slightly disappointed, bowed her head and sighed, "It's a pity······ It's a pity that I can't learn martial arts to defend myself after all······"

"I'll protect you. "I don't think about it.

"Really?" she said in surprise, "then I can finish my homework at your end today, and you will go back with me?" Mom didn't get home until the evening today, and the house was deserted, but I was scared to go back at night. ”

"No problem," I was trying to rebuild the old one, and I couldn't ask for such a good opportunity, so I readily agreed.

During class, I raised my hand and said: "Xiyu is afraid of breeding, and subverted, compared to poison, dare to ask Mr., can you ask if there is a teaching? Seeing people fall into the well, instead of leading the hand to rescue, but going down to the stone, it can be described as benevolent?

I deliberately said it in a sloppy manner, and the tone of the subdued and frustrated tone, the shaking of the head and the demeanor of the head were fully learned, and the young man behind him had begun to snicker.

Si Yang Jushi was very happy, shook his head and smiled: "The son can be taught, wonderful." Ju, my language is you, the quality of the text is the history, the quality is better than the text. With your material, far better than the text, when accustomed to the decoration, to be polite. ”

The classmates looked at each other, secretly covered their mouths and laughed behind them.

During the recess, a group of teenagers pulled me over, and Zheng Hao said, "Verdant ······ Uh-huh, there's something I need to tell you. ”

I wondered, "Oh, what's the matter?"

Zheng Hao: "This is about you. ”

"Me?" "Oh, no one has ever inquired about my background, no one knows that I am from the slums, and just now my words about Yuyu Yuju slipped out.

Seeing my look of sudden realization, a young man on the side interjected: "It's not that you just said it, we already know where you came from." ”

Zheng Hao said: "Come on, you see that we know each other well, and suddenly a new classmate came, who is not curious······? First, my father strictly instructed you not to know, and second, our relationship is so good, no one can bear to tell you. ”

The teenagers around them nodded silently or whispered yes. I couldn't help but frown.

"At the beginning of the first month, the Seven Leaves Holy Envoy is going to beat you ······" He hurriedly changed his words, "Looking for you, bringing you here, do you know why?"

I shook my head.

"Every thousand years, the Hidden Empire holds a large ceremony to pray for rain, which requires an unmarried maiden as a sacrifice, and this maiden must be the holy envoy himself or his immediate family. ”

I suddenly understood what Ye Zi'an wanted to say at that time.

"Ye Zi'an has a daughter, doesn't she?" I asked coldly.

Zheng Hao sighed: "That's right, he has a pair of children, his sister is called Ye Su, and his younger brother is called Ye Qing, and now it's only eleven or twelve years before praying for rain, ······ You ······ We don't want to see you either······ This ······"

Instead, I smiled lightly: "So now no one dares to be the Holy Envoy, so I have become the internal candidate, right?

Zheng Hao looked incredulous: "Onion, wake up, you are going to be sacrificed." You're not anxious at all, scared, whatever?"

I raised my head and said proudly: "What is there to be afraid of, when the mountain people have their own clever plans, I don't believe it, just rely on Ye Zi to settle them, and want to arrange my fate?"

The teenagers breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We don't want you to die either." "Otherwise, who would dare to tell you? "That's good. "Justified and justified"

"Hey, wait," I suddenly asked, "why aren't Ye Zi'an's children studying here?"

"They, the tree fell and Sun scattered, and as soon as Ye Zi'an died, the two of them evaporated from the world. Zheng Hao shrugged, "The position of the Holy Envoy was originally made with a knife and a shot, and it will naturally not win the hearts of the people in the Mage Association, if you think about it, the power of the empire is divided between the Prime Minister and the Holy Envoy Association, and the relationship between the Holy Envoy and the Prime Minister is not much better, Ye Zi is plain and self-serving, and there are many enemies, as soon as he dies, Ye Su and Ye Qing will of course have to slip away quickly." ”

That's right······
