Although he didn't have the nerve to take the strips of meat left by the students of Thunder College that day, the simple clay pots he got from them also helped Meng Bai a lot.
With the clay pot that can make soup, he can drink hot water to warm his body at any time, and the soup made with more than a dozen small fish and some tubers looks very delicious.
As for Bian Linghan, who has good archery skills like Lin Xi, hunting prey is easier than that of ordinary students. She has not been hungry these two days.
A can of delicious-looking fish soup is ready.
"Where on earth did Lin Xi go? She never showed up." Meng Bai muttered to himself, then picked up the can of fish soup with two pieces of dead wood and prepared to sit down and enjoy it.
But the moment he turned around, he was stunned. A can of fish soup was dangling in front of him, looking like it might fall at any time.
Bian Linghan turned her head suspiciously, and after just one glance, she stood up suddenly.
Going up the hillside, a few hundred steps away, stood a person.
That person was Lin Xi, who had been missing for two days.
Lin Xi's black cloak, the clothes with a tie underneath, including his hair and eyebrows were all dripping with water. His face looked extremely pale and haggard. Looking at the white hair and Bian Linghan who had just seen him, he revealed
There was a trace of a smile, but in the next breath, he fell to the ground like a stone.
…
Meng Bai spilled half a can of fish soup, Bian Linghan ignored the fox meat on the fire, and the two people's faces instantly turned very pale. Just as the two of them ran desperately towards the fallen Lin Xi,
In a forest on one side, the miserable-looking Muzan Zi happened to be walking out holding an egg of an unknown bird.
Seeing Lin Xi falling to the ground, this Zhi Ge Jin Shao was also stunned.
"Lin Xi, what's going on?"
Bian Linghan's heart tightened instantly. She immediately wanted to help Lin Xi up, but as soon as she touched Lin Xi's body, she found that Lin Xi's skin was like ice cubes, without any heat.
Except for Lin Xi's breath which was slightly warm, his whole body was almost cold.
"Don't worry, just go over and warm yourself by the fire and eat something... I have been practicing there for more than two days, and I haven't eaten anything today." Lin Xi smiled weakly at Bian Linghan and Meng Bai.
He said: "It shouldn't be considered a violation to help me get to that fire."
"Have you gone to practice in the snow peaks above the snow line?" The chill emanating from Lin Xi's body and these words made Bian Linghan take a breath, and he couldn't help but look up to see the place above the snow line in the distance, which was covered in clouds and mist.
What a towering ice peak. But Meng Bai, who happened to see the many meat strips hanging on Lin Xi's body, couldn't figure it out at all, and subconsciously asked: "You have so many meat strips on your body, why don't you eat it?"
"It's too frozen to chew on."
"..." Hearing Lin Xi's answer, Meng Bai was stunned for a moment, and finally understood what Lin Xi had been doing in the two days since he had disappeared.
Bian Linghan finally understood why Lin Xi felt as if she had been soaked in ice water. The black cloak in the college had excellent protection against cold and rain. Even if raindrops dripped on it, it would immediately slip off, making it completely transparent.
Don't go in. Lin Xi is like this now because his body, hair, and eyebrows are all covered with ice and snow, which will melt after he comes down.
"Lin Xi, are you crazy? You are so desperate that you went to a place like that to practice for more than two days!" Because of fear and regret, Ling Han and Meng Bai quickly helped Lin Xi to the fire.
, and couldn't help shouting and scolding at the same time.
Mu Shanzi, who was standing on the edge of the woods, saw clearly what Lin Xi was seeing at this moment, and also heard clearly what Bian Linghan was scolding at this moment. His eyes widened, "Your mother... Lin Xi, you are too cruel."
?" After this well-educated Jinshao swallowed hard, he couldn't help but uttered a curse word speechlessly, then shook his head, turned around and left.
At this moment, Lin Xi, who was still dripping with water, looked at the fire not far away, with a look of satisfaction and pride on his face. He turned his head slightly and said in a voice that only Bian Linghan could hear.
He whispered in her ear like an explanation: "Although it's crazy, it's worth it. My soul power has increased a lot... I should be able to reach the level of an intermediate soul warrior... and I also held Feng Xue, I
His archery skills should improve greatly."
"Caught Feng Xue?"
Bian Linghan's body suddenly trembled. Even if Meng Bai heard this sentence clearly, she probably wouldn't understand what it meant, but she had a true Windrunner talent and was undergoing special Windrunner training with Lin Xi. Naturally, she knew it very well.
the meaning of it.
…
At Tianshu Peak, Vice President Xia and Xiao Mingxuan, who was patting his belly worriedly, were looking at a picture on a small scroll.
There are a total of more than a dozen fragments in the picture, which are very simple, but when connected together, they are the final stab in the battle between Lin Xi and Wanyan Muye, and they are very clearly depicted.
"Can you see how he managed to get that stab that determines the outcome?" Vice President Xia looked at it for a long time, took a long breath, turned to look at Xiao Mingxuan and asked.
Xiao Mingxuan shook his head, and his answer was still very direct: "How can I see that with his cultivation level, this makes no sense at all."
"It seems that this can only be attributed to talent." Vice President Xia smiled and said, "His cultivation seems to be improving very quickly."
"It's not very fast, it's very fast." Xiao Mingxuan, who was exposed to all real data, glanced at Vice President Xia and said: "Even without any pills, based on the real accumulation of soul power, his one month of cultivation would be more difficult for ordinary people."
It will take at least a month and a half of practice to catch up."
Vice President Xia nodded: "So next time he meets Wanyan Muye, he should still be able to win?"
Xiao Mingxuan pondered for a moment and nodded: "Probably."
"It should be almost time." Vice President Xia nodded again, then stood up, "I'll go see them."
Xiao Mingxuan also stood up, nodded solemnly, and said: "Okay."
…
After waiting for a full seven days, the convoy departing from the Imperial City of Zhongzhou, Yan Shaoqing, the deputy chief of the Li Division, Feng Qianhan, the chief commander of the Zhengwu Division, and Ye Shaofeng, the commander of the Zhongzhou Guards, finally met Vice President Xia who could speak on behalf of the college.
.
In the empty hall where the blue stone tiles on the ground resembled the boundless blue river, the wrinkled Vice President Xia looked at these three important figures among the Yunqin dignitaries and asked: "You came to see me because you want to...
say what?"
Although the other party made him wait for a full seven days, Yan Shaoqing, the second-largest person in the official department, who knew how many people could be shaken by just stamping his feet, did not have the slightest hint of impatience. He looked at this real big shot and slowly
Talking about the decree in the imperial city: "Vice President Xia must have already known that the eldest princess was attacked in Rudong Tomb, and two of the assassins were from Da Mang. The reason is the same as our Yun Qin Bu in recent years.
It has something to do with the strength before the restoration, otherwise Da Mang and Tang Zang would not have dared to openly be enemies with us in these years. The Holy Emperor is very worried. It was the eldest princess who was attacked this time, so will he be attacked next time... So
Your Majesty would like to ask Vice President Xia to ask Qingluan College to worry more about him and make more efforts for him."
Because the other party must have guessed these meanings, and because he was dragged by the other party for seven days, the assassination suddenly seemed far away and lacked a lot of shocking power. So now talking about it, even Yan Shaoqing himself felt a little awkward and couldn't help it.
I feel that even though I am a carp that has jumped over the dragon gate, the opponent is actually a real old dragon, and it is still not on the same level.
However, he still had to say what needed to be said, and he continued with true respect: "What the Holy Lord means, Qingluan Academy's practice methods and the elixirs used in practice are the real treasures of the Yunqin Empire. In recent years, all three major academies have produced
He has recruited many top-notch talents. If these cultivation methods and elixirs are given to the top group of people in the three colleges, the students who have made the greatest contributions to Yunqin and are the most loyal, the effect will probably be better. I am afraid that for the current
The situation will improve."
Vice President Xia listened calmly, shook his head, and said gently: "Please Deputy Chief Yan tell His Majesty for me that we do not agree with His Majesty's views. Doing so may lead to the emergence of even more powerful spiritual geniuses.
However, some practitioners who may be of great use may die young. Our Qingluan College has already made careful considerations on how to provide these resources to students, and will provide them to the right people and let them
They make the most of it.”
This was a completely expected answer. Yan Shaoqing's eyes stayed on Ye Shaofeng beside him. At this moment, it should be the time for the Zhongzhou Guard Commander to speak. He only hoped that this young Zhongzhou Guard would be killed by a member of the academy.
A very average lecturer can still speak more forcefully after losing his energy.
Ye Shaofeng coughed twice and spoke slowly: "Deputy Dean Xia, but the Holy One has already issued the decree, and Zhou Shoufu and others have also agreed... good or bad, as our ministers, we can only listen, we have to try after all.
Say it again."
Vice President Xia still shook his head gently and said: "The Holy One should also listen to my opinion."
"But the Holy Will has been decided." The lines on Ye Shaofeng's face hardened again, which made Yan Shaoqing and Feng Qianhan think in their hearts that it made sense for Zhou Shoufu to send this person. "If nothing else, there are many pills in the academy.
Many of the materials and resources were provided by the Holy One. Now that the Holy One is in danger, he wants the college to make more contributions. Isn’t Vice President Xia not willing to listen to the Holy One and give it a try?"
When Vice President Xia heard these tough words, he smiled slightly and asked: "Do you think my contribution and contribution to Yunqin are not enough? If you find someone who has done more than me, I will
I can accept what you say now."
Ye Shaofeng was speechless. Only facts are the most difficult to refute. Looking at the entire Yunqin Empire, the only one who can pay more and have more glory than him is Dean Zhang. However, if Dean Zhang is still alive, it will be even more impossible.
Accept what he says.
"Today's sages are wise and will not issue unfounded decrees." Yan Shaoqing spoke respectfully, looked at Vice President Xia and said: "He had already expected that Vice President Xia would have such an opinion. He just wanted me and Xia to
The vice-president said that Vice-President Xia and some professors had this opinion, but there were many professors in the college who had raised objections to the teaching of Qingluan College many times before. Moreover, this time the Ministry of Civil Affairs and Zhengwu Division also specifically
We have carefully counted the military achievements and promotions of students from Thunder College and Qingluan College in the past ten years. It cannot be denied that in the past ten years, the performance of students from Thunder College has completely surpassed that of students from Qingluan College.
.”
After a pause, Yan Shaoqing looked at Vice President Xia and said, "The Holy One believes that the reason is due to a certain confidential teaching reform of Thunder College ten years ago."
