Chapter 698: Where the Flowers Fall
There are few days of tranquility in the great wilderness, but such turmoil is rare. But in the temporary tranquility, there are many places that remain quiet, such as the Academy.
It is no different here than in the past, and even if there is a danger, the students will carry out the relevant countermeasures in an orderly manner under the arrangement of the instructors. New students are coming, but the old ones are different from the previous ones, not leaving, and choosing to stay or return to the mortal world in the last two quarters.
Some people who have not yet found the mountain path in the pine forest are diligently improving their strength, or sitting under a pine tree, contemplating the true meaning of that road, hoping to walk up. Some of these people want to stay in the academy and work hard, and some just want to prove themselves. It's a thing that can increase the price for yourself, so everyone is happy to try it until the last minute.
Those who find the trail are actually more entangled than those who don't, because they have a choice. If not, they can scold themselves for being a piece of waste and give up something. But they have the right to choose, and their particular instructor will also ask them at the last rites if they want to stay, which is really difficult to choose.
The faculty members have said that this is the last lesson the college will give them. In all the lessons of life, only choice is reflected from beginning to end. The small choice is just what to eat for this meal, potatoes or eggplant, and of course it can be fried to a piece. Big choices are life-threatening and impactful. Therefore, the academy stipulates that once a decision is made, it cannot be changed, so you have to be cautious!
Those who remain in the academy must follow the rules and the tasks given must be completed. Those who have left the academy cannot come back without special circumstances and without the approval of the vice president. Although this sentence seems to be promising, in the past hundred years, no student has been able to enter after leaving the academy.
There is no shortage of geniuses among the students, but none of the faculty members of the academy are once the most influential figures, and the so-called words are difficult to chase, which probably means that they are not allowed to enter, no matter who they are, they are not allowed to enter.
Everyone is reluctant to go to the college, the peach forest that has grown countless buds carries too many joys and sorrows, and the two green tile houses under it have too many stories and youth. Four years ago, they were not as mature and stable as they are now, at that time they were enthusiastic and ambitious, much more glorious than now, but they were a little more reckless in their lives and things.
"Where's the camp?"
When he saw Xia Xiao for the first time, Wang Ling, who was the prince of the Southern Shang Empire, asked him this, and the latter said lightly:
"I knocked it out. ”
Xia Xiao's attitude at that time was calm and light-hearted, and he seemed to be doing an extremely simple thing. Thinking about it now, Wang Ling couldn't help but laugh. If he knew that Xia Xiao had so much potential at that time, he would not ask for hardship. But after so many comparisons, he has never won in four years, and now Xia Xiao disdains to compare with him, because Wang Ling can't interfere with what he is doing. Even listening to the awe, he was taken away by Yunguo, but escaped by himself, what kind of monster behavior is this, is it really inappropriate?
If Wang Ling is from Yunguo, he will be so angry that he vomits blood. In reality, the people of Yunguo are not just so angry that they vomit blood.
What was even more puzzling was that the Cloud Kingdom sent an entire country of cultivators to hunt him down, but he escaped. Even though Xia Xiao's story had been passed back from the Adventurer's Guild, they still couldn't believe it. The gap between people is probably something that I do at will, and you can't reach it in your lifetime.
"It's better to eliminate, but from today on, you are my opponent!"
Thinking of what he had said, Wang Ling, who was sitting on the edge of the cliff in the peach forest, smiled bitterly and was a little embarrassed. The outrageous things of the time are now very ashamed to look back on. He is so strong and too strong, he doesn't have Xia Xiao's bearing in the face of many things, and he hasn't defeated him now.
Even so, Wang Ling is still the leader of this session, and he, like Heavenly Mandate, Long Suihong, Xie Yi and others, the biggest question at present is whether to stay or not. But Wang Ling looked at the blue brick square, and memories kept flooding into his mind. They are all persuading Wang Ling to stay, it is good to stay, just like their instructors, they have a lot of time to do their own things every day, they don't have to think about it so much, they are leisurely and comfortable.
But this kind of leisure has to bear a lot of blame and insults from the deceased, so it is not easy to stay. Whenever he thought of Nanshang's heavy ambitions, Wang Ling didn't want to go back, and it was better to be quiet than to keep fighting. After the previous battle with Xia Xiao on the battlefield, he gradually hated the battlefield after he came back to meditate, it was too noisy.
But going home is what they should do, and the state has gone to great lengths to send them out so that they can become successful and go back to work, and if they stay here, they will be sorry for the country. As a prince, Wang Ling has that responsibility. But the academy cultivated them as if they were planting trees, fertilizing, watering, and removing insects, and everything was done very carefully, and now the trees are growing and blooming, but they don't know where they fall, which is also a kind of sadness.
Scratching his head, Wang Ling couldn't help but be annoyed. But now whenever he encounters something, he will subconsciously think about what Xia Xiao will do, if he is facing such distress with him, Wang Ling may feel better. But that guy is too special to definitely leave the academy, but he has the power to come back at any time.
Xia Xiao's experience Wang Ling sincerely admired, not jealous, he faced and admitted his strengths and strengths, and at the same time recognized his own shortcomings and shortcomings, so as to improve a few grades, and his strength also improved. But a lot of everything he has is related to the academy. Those things are unpredictable, friendship is a sense of comfort, and there is a bond stronger than the sense of imperial responsibility that makes it difficult to get rid of.
In another part of the peach forest, Heavenly Destiny and Feng Lu sat together, also discussing where to stay. Their faces were full of maturity, and they were no longer the slightest bit immature, but the words in their mouths had no meaning, because they would definitely have to go back. Therefore, it quickly changed from discussion to nostalgia, and when I looked at the peach forest, I was full of reluctant feelings.
The ten desolate beasts that first entered the academy were the black dragon ice phoenix, the lion wind horse, the forest tiger and the crow, the young finch rockfish, and the iron snake golden bull. Now that four years have passed, the wind horse and the chicks have long been eliminated, the iron snake and the stone fish have not found their way up the mountain, and the other six beasts can choose to stay, but they do not have the courage to return, nor are they ready to be spurned by the clansmen. But they are no less reluctant to the academy than anyone else.
Perhaps it was because the treatment and experience they enjoyed in the academy were much better than they thought before they came, so the Destiny of Heaven was so reluctant, and finally leaned against the tree, raised his head and sighed:
"I originally thought that we could only survive in the big forest, but I didn't expect to be able to live in harmony with humans, and this separation, there will be no such place for us to communicate, and the only bond between humans and wild beasts will also be broken. ”
They have received news that the Great Forest is not ready to study with the younger generations of the Academy, this is the decision of all races, as for why, it has to do with the contradictions that have always existed in humans and beasts. In order to cultivate, humans hunted wild beasts on a large scale, and even now, that phenomenon has not been alleviated.
Some time ago, Nanshang and Great Xia went to war. In order to increase the number of cultivators, both sides entered the Great Forest of Desolate Beasts, and tried to climb over the ancient tree of divine power, capture desolate beasts from within the forbidden wall, and sign spiritual contracts for cultivators who met the conditions. Such an act was too blatant and angered the current Beast King, the elder brother of the Mandate of Heaven. He is ready to start another war, on a larger scale than the last time, and he will not stop easily, and he will not stop
The Mandate of Heaven is the brother of the Desolate Beast King, and at this time, he will definitely go back to help the Desolate Beast clan regain his power, if he keeps giving in, it will only cause more of his compatriots to die under the spirit contract. For them, as long as the beast is deprived of consciousness, it is death, and as for the spiritual contract signed with humans, it is not a continuation of life at all, but is used as a weapon by the main party, which can be described as despicable.
"I don't know how Xia Xiao is. ”
Destiny said silently, this guy is his favorite human being, affectionate and righteous, but he is crazy.
"I'm afraid he won't be able to see the younger students who have just entered the academy. ”
"Yes, but it was a happy time living together in the 218 dormitory. We used to talk until dawn, and during class we were so sleepy that we turned into our original forms. ”
"A bunch of big guys, what's there to talk about?"
"Talking about Xia Xiao's experience, talking about Qin Feng and Mu Lin's poor and sour days, I'll talk about the shortcomings of wild beasts and humans, and talk about you by the way. ”
"What do you say about me?"
Feng Lu pretended to ask casually, but she actually cared very much, glanced at the Destiny of Heaven, listened to it with a smile, and said:
"At that time, only me and Xia Xiao had a partner, so every time I talked about it, Qin Feng and Mu Lin were very envious, it was funny that they had never seen the world, I naturally wanted to show off more, besides, Xia Xiao always liked to mention Shu Shuang to his lips at that time, of course I was not far behind, and felt that my women were no worse than his women. ”
Feng Lu chuckled, a little surprised.
"You have always been an emperor in my eyes, but I didn't expect to show off your possessions like a child. ”
"It's only like this when men are together, and you deserve to show your hand, everyone, including Shu Shuang at that time, was stabbed by your light. But I haven't seen Xia Xiao for a long time, and that kid must be a candle when he opens his mouth and closes his mouth now. It's been almost a year since I left, and I'm really not home. ”
I miss it, but I can't see it, I just hope that it will be safe and smooth. Heavenly Destiny and Feng Lu, who had this thought, looked at each other, what is the difference between them and human beings?
The Mandate of Heaven has always had a holiday with the people of the Adventurers' Guild and the Southern Merchants, but seeing it at this time, he has long since bared his teeth and did not choose to ignore it, but glanced at each other with great regret. Now they look at each other less, and then they meet, maybe on the battlefield, when they can't help themselves, the apology in their eyes at this time, like preparing for the future, may never be seen again.
The beautiful place of the academy can only become a place of dreams after all. Luckily, they were able to see the peach blossoms in full bloom one more time before leaving.
When the mountains are full of peach blossoms, they will definitely enter it invariably. But at that time, it was also the day when the new batch of students entered the college. They became the most special class in history, but what they had to face, after the revelation of the instructor, also made everyone stunned. But for everyone, it is also proud to be able to do such a big thing before leaving the academy, Wang Ling is even eager to try, but the embarrassment is the Eight Desolation Beasts of Heavenly Destiny and the five sea beasts of the water tank, they feel for the first time that it is better to leave the academy as soon as possible, and there is no need to be so embarrassed, but the time when this incident happened has not been precisely set, but it is probably in the summer.
This scorching summer will eventually be special and long, and I can't finish it in a word.
