Chapter 17 Killing and killing can only stop fighting
"What kind of courses does our Zhige Department have?"
"It's nothing more than some techniques for killing people and preventing them from being killed. After you get to the academy, you will naturally understand them gradually."
"Why are we called Zhige Department?"
"To stop killing by killing, you can stop fighting."
The questions and answers continued. Some people felt that Xia Yanbing's explanation of the subject was a bit too heavy and asked a relatively relaxed question. However, what they did not expect was that Xia Yanbing's answer was even colder.
"This is what the dean said, and it is also the principle that our Qingluan Academy abides by." Looking at some young people who were obviously unable to bear it, Xia Yanbing added: "Our Qingluan Academy will also teach you many principles that are not recognized by the outside world. You
You don’t have to listen. Our college only paved our way. It’s your freedom to go however you want, or whether you want to go this way.”
Li Kaiyun's face next to Lin Xi was filled with an expression of unspeakable shock. He looked at the black-haired man who did not look back in the night and Xia Yanbing, who was as firm as stone: "The college doesn't care whether we agree with the college's principles or not?"
Xia Yanbing, who was walking in the night, had no sarcasm on his face, but his tone was ruthless: "This is also a stupid question. To use the simplest analogy, the college gave you a knife and told you not to kill anyone.
You want to kill someone, but you walked out of the academy with this knife. Who do you want to kill, what kind of changes have happened in your heart, how can the academy control it?"
"But there are always rights and wrongs in things. If students who leave the college do something wrong, won't the college punish them?" A nerdy-looking freshman was very excited and argued loudly.
Xia Yanbing glanced at the new student and replied calmly: "What is right and what is wrong? One is that people who are powerful enough to determine right and wrong can say what is right and what is wrong. The other is right and wrong.
Let later generations comment."
The nerdy-looking freshman blushed and wanted to speak out. At this moment, Lin Xi, who had been silent until now, suddenly said: "What Teacher Xia means is that everyone has a shot in their heart.
Right and wrong exist in each of us."
Xia Yanbing said nothing, but glanced at Lin Xi with surprise and approval. Even the black-haired man couldn't help but look back at Lin Xi.
Lin Xi's heart had calmed down at this time. He who was not from this world was naturally not as pedantic as the people in this world. The principles of the academy, which were close to the rules of his world, naturally seemed simple and easy to accept.
"How many credits can you get from an ordinary course, and what kind of things can you get in exchange for it?" After wrapping her soft and warm black cloak slightly tightly around her body, Lin Xi first asked a very practical question.
"If you pass an ordinary course, you can get two to three credits in exchange for something worth about one hundred taels of gold." Xia Yanbing kept walking while answering Lin Xi: "But this value in the college
Something like one hundred taels of gold, like the cloak you are wearing, is only an approximate cost, and it is also difficult to purchase through normal channels outside."
There was an uproar.
Even for a boy with a golden spoon, one hundred taels of gold is not a small amount, and from what Xia Yanbing said, the things that can be exchanged for these two to three credits are likely to be unique to the academy. If you want to buy them from outside,
If you get something like this, it’s not worth several times the price.
"It turns out that this credit is so valuable. No wonder Professor Qin said that Meng Bai was lucky." Lin Xi couldn't help but smile bitterly when she thought of the eighty yuan a credit she paid for in college.
After giving a wry smile, Lin Xi immediately asked: "What qualifications did we test at the beginning?"
Many freshmen immediately curled their lips secretly. In their opinion, Lin Xi's question was certainly a stupid question. However, Xia Yanbing seemed to see all the doubts in Lin Xi's mind about this question. Instead of directly saying that this was a stupid question, Xia Yanbing was very surprised.
Patiently explained: "The power we cultivate is called soul power. The stronger the soul power, the more powerful the enemy will be. Some people are born to cultivate soul power quickly, some people are slow to cultivate soul power, and they take the same elixir, and some people
People's soul power will also increase much, while some people's soul power will also increase less. The soul measuring stone allows us to measure our talent for cultivating soul power."
Lin Xi was silent for a moment, then asked: "What was the reason for choosing a weapon when you first entered the test?"
Xia Yan said calmly: "After decades of testing and statistics in our college, the results obtained are that under the suppression of that atmosphere, the candidates' intuitive choice of weapons can not only reveal his certain temperament, but also the weapons chosen at that time.
The blade is often the most suitable weapon for his training, and it can predict certain talents."
"Such a simple entrance examination actually covers many aspects such as psychology and huge mathematical statistics?" Lin Xi was slightly shocked, knowing that she had underestimated the academy.
"Is the method of cultivating soul power unique to the academy?"
"Of course not. The methods of cultivation are all similar. The difference is that some of the methods and traditions of the academy will allow those who enter the academy to practice faster and use skills, and to fight far better than those in other places, making them a member of the empire.
Extraordinary person."
"Knives and swords can be forged anywhere, but the knives and swords forged in our academy are faster." Xia Yanbing admired Lin Xi from the beginning, and in his eyes, Lin Xi was a person from a border town who knew nothing.
He was a humble boy who understood things, so when faced with these equally stupid questions, he answered them very gently. He even added this sentence for fear that they were not clear enough.
Lin Xi ignored the opinions of others and kept asking questions, causing the scene to turn into a question and answer session between him and Xia Yanbing. However, some freshmen who were arrogant and thought his questions were idiotic couldn't stand it.
"What kind of traditions does our Qingluan College have? Are these traditions left by Dean Zhang?" The young Jin who fought with Lin Xi because of the horse carriage ended up having a grudge with Lin Xi, and happened to also join the Zhige Department.
Qiu Lu, a young man in a shirt, glared at Lin Xi fiercely and rushed to ask.
Hearing this question, Xia Yanbing had a slight smile on his face. He looked towards the Dengtian Mountains in the distance and said slowly: "Dean Zhang has indeed left many special traditions in our Qingluan College.
, some are rules and some are habits, you will naturally understand them gradually after you arrive at the academy."
"Do all the teachers in the college understand the meaning of these traditions? For example, why are they called departments, lecturers and professors?" Lin Xi's voice rang again, getting ahead of Qiu Lu, who made Qiu Lu fierce again.
glared at him.
"We really don't know the meaning of these names that Dean Zhang decided on, but like the 'Zhi Ge' he decided on, they should all have special meanings, but he didn't tell us." Xia Yanbing glanced at Lin Xi.
, the voice suddenly became solemn: "Speaking of tradition, Dean Zhang left two words: awe can restrain people, and tradition can establish faith. The most important tradition of our Qingluan College is that all the freshmen who enroll every year,
Everyone must accept Dean Zhang’s admonishment on the first day of enrollment.”
Lin Xi was stunned: "Didn't you say that Dean Zhang is not in the college?"
Xia Yanbing nodded: "Dean Zhang is not in the hospital, but before he left Qingluan College, he left a monument. He left the admonishment he wanted to say to you on the monument. He also told the new students to accept it every year.
Discipline is the most important tradition of Qingluan Academy."
"What's on the monument...what's on the monument?" Qiu Lu spoke up before Lin Xi, but after speaking, he didn't have time to think of what to ask, so he said this out of desperation.
Many freshmen immediately curled their lips with disdain on their faces. How could Dean Zhang's admonishment be spoken by the lecturer first?
Xia Yanbing shook his head: "I don't know. The instructions left by Dean Zhang are some runes. No professor in the college has been able to understand their meaning."
"Unintelligible runes?" Lin Xi's brows suddenly knitted together and she fell into deep thought.
"What does this mean?"
"Even the professors at the college can't figure out what Dean Zhang means, so how can we guess it?"
Xia Yanbing's answer surprised many people and caused a murmur.
…
A group of people wearing expensive black cloaks walked silently in the endless night and dry grass fields, and questions and answers continued.
"Teacher, why do we have to keep walking when other departments don't have to go? Isn't it said that you have strength only when you are full? When do you eat? When do you stop to rest?" But because I gradually became familiar with him and felt that Xia Yanbing was not difficult,
Because of the conversation, I started to ask this question a little lazily and naughtyly.
"Xia Yanbing, don't be too nice to them. There is an old saying from the frontier army that a gentle whip cannot make a horse run faster." The black-haired man who had been silent until now was lazily surprised when he heard such a question.
said something.
Xia Yanbing nodded and asked, "Do you know why most of the candidates want to enter the Zhige Department?"
Li Kaiyun was the first to speak up: "Because the Zhige system is the place closest to glory."
"Not everyone may think like you do." Xia Yanbing looked at this young man who was not tall, but had great ambitions. He shook his head and said, "The Zhige system may not be the closest to glory, but generally speaking
, but it is the place closest to real death.”
"People from other departments will also go to the battlefield and face various dangers. However, our Zhige department exists to lead troops, fight, and assassinate. Compared with other departments, the vast majority of you in the future,
The chance of facing life and death danger is greater, and among your enemies, there will also be highly trained opponents. Who can survive in the face of such opponents depends entirely on who usually pays more and who is better."
"If the entire empire is a bow, then those of us from Zhige are the arrows shot by this bow. They are the most lethal, but also the easiest to break, so you must become as hard as possible...*
*The more tired you are, the more you can sharpen a person's willpower. This is originally a means of cultivating soul power."
