Volume 1 The Empire of the Morning Chapter 194 Morning Light
Tobacco and alcohol are not separated, men and women are not separated, and swords and arrows are naturally not separated. Ning Que held the heavy talisman and arrow and smiled. Senior brother Six walked over from the iron room with a long cloth bag, unbuttoned the bag, and exposed it.
There are three Park knives inside.
These are the three knives that Ning Que sent to the back mountain a few days ago. After being re-hammered and tempered by Senior Brother Six, the blade body looks slenderer than before, and the black long handle looks stronger and the darker knife surface is
As the morning light is displayed, several simple and clear rune lines can occasionally appear, which look a bit delicate, but exudes endless murderous aura.
The second senior brother said: "The Xiling Temple issued an edict. There should be many young masters from all over the country going to the wasteland this time. I think the Judgment Department should also go there. Maybe you will meet Longqing again in Yanbei."
Hearing the word Longqing, Ning Que's scalp tightened for no reason, and he subconsciously had a strong thought of disappearing. He beat Prince Longqing once during the mountain climbing, but the real difference between the two people's cultivation level was too big. If Prince Longqing held a grudge in the previous episode
After being humiliated twice, he was afraid that he would suffer a lot in the hands of the other party.
"I won't give it to you tomorrow, I will only remind you one more word."
The second senior brother continued, "This time you went to the wasteland, you brought the academy students, representing the second floor senior brothers and sisters, and carrying the Master's banner, so no matter what the situation is, you cannot embarrass the academy.
Xiling Tianyu Academy, Nanjin Jiange, Yuelun Baita Temple, my school children have had a lot of contact with guys from these places back then. They have never lost whether they play chess or perform music, and you can't lose."
"Why aren't you allowed to lose?"
"good."
"What should I do if I can't beat the other party?"
"You can't be embarrassed if you can't win."
Ning Que touched his head, asked in confusion and distress: "Second Brother, how can you not be embarrassed if you can't beat the other party?"
The second senior brother raised his eyebrows slightly and scolded unhappily: "If you can't win, you have to find a way to win. If you really can't win, you can't admit defeat. You can try your best to escape. You can go back to practice for a few years and fight with the other party again. Will you be able to do so?
Never win?”
...
...
Because of His Majesty's proposal, the area where the academy students practiced this year was arranged in the tense Yanbei wasteland, and the departure time was tomorrow. When Ning Que walked out of the thick fog in the back mountain of the academy, the books around Shiping were all over the Shiping when he walked out of the thick fog in the back mountain of the academy.
The sound of the teachers and gentlemen was echoing in the house. There were managers outside the warehouse who were constantly transporting things needed on the journey, while the military officials were counting the number of weapons they wore.
Walking out of the stone gate of the academy, I saw dozens of horses scattered among the green meadows under the morning light. These horses from the west horse farm in the city calmly lowered their heads to eat grass, occasionally crashed into the flowers deep in the meadow, and fell into the autumn petals.
.
Ning Que looked at the war horses that were about to embark on the journey, smiled, and said sorry to Lao Duan, the coachman who had been waiting outside the yard for a whole night, and then prepared to board the bus and return to the city.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of a question, frowned and jumped out of the carriage, walked back to the academy warehouse, borrowed a solid leather bag, picked dozens of heavy stones next to the road and stuffed them in. He weighed them with his hands.
He felt that the weight of the stone in the bag was about the same. He walked to the edge of the meadow, held the stopper with his hand and whistled towards the depths of the meadow.
The whistle was not very loud, so the herbivorous war horses scattered around the meadows were alert at the same time. They raised their heads. One of the strongest big yellow horses shook their heads and squeezed their companions away, and ran away with joy and hooves.
Come over.
He touched the big yellow horse and tied the leather bag to the rope beside the saddle through the railing.
The leather bag was stuffed with stones, which looked inconspicuous, but it was actually very heavy. The front legs of the big yellow horse bent slightly, and then stood up quickly. It was just that the balance of the body seemed to be a little problem, and I was a little anxious when I gasped.
Ning Que took off his leather bag, looked at the big yellow horse and shook his head, thinking that the thirteen iron bow and three swords were too heavy, plus his own weight, even if these ordinary war horses could withstand it, it would be impossible.
Chenghe has been for too long, especially when he entered the wasteland. Once he has to pursue, it will not last long.
He has been a soldier in the border of Weicheng for a long time. He knows more than any student in the academy that the importance of riding on the wasteland is now entering the world of practice, and he knows more clearly that as long as he is not a great practitioner of the realm of knowing fate, he still needs to rely on it.
Only horses can maintain sufficient speed.
After thinking for a moment, a scene from last year suddenly appeared in his mind. He poured out the stone in his leather bag, jumped into the meadow, found the manager at the military horse farm, took out the waist sign at Tianshu and whispered.
I said a few words.
After returning to Chang'an City, he did not return to Linshiqi Lane as soon as possible, but went to the Nanmen Taoist Temple below the imperial city. The disciple was about to travel far away and always had to report to the master, and maybe the master would give him some farewell.
Gift.
Master Yan Se knew earlier than Ning Que himself that he was going to the wasteland. After thinking about it these days, he felt that His Majesty’s arrangement was always good for his disciple, so he gradually calmed down his anger.
Instead of telling Ning Que to lose his reputation as the second senior brother, he said solemnly: "The barbarians on the grassland are not scary, and the deserted people returning to the south and their partners around him will be the greatest danger.
It is said that there are teachers, His Majesty and Me, and there are not many people in the world who dare to do something bad, but you must remember that there is not the Tang Dynasty after all."
"Master, don't worry." Ning Que said with a smile.
The distant wasteland often represents mystery and danger to the people of the Central Plains, but for Ning Que, who left Minshan and cut horse thieves on the wasteland as part-time job, was actually the place he was most familiar with. No matter how powerful he encountered it, he was.
He believed that he could at least save his life.
Without this confidence, he would not have agreed to the court's request.
Master Yan Se thought about the apologists sent by the temple this time and the strong judge Si Yiying who was hiding in the dark. He slowly frowned and looked at him and said seriously: "The enemies you encountered in the wasteland in the past
They are all ordinary people. Even the most brutal horse thief may not make you feel scared, but remember that the enemy you face this time may be a practitioner, or more likely to be hidden among the deserted people.
The remnants of the Demon Sect, you must be careful in everything.”
Ning Que lowered his smile and said seriously: "Students understand."
Next, Master Yan Se completed his last lecture before the arrival of autumn, and explained in detail the peak of the Taoist Tao - the wonderful meaning of the text, and then handed a treasure bag to his hands, explaining that there were some wonderful things in the treasure bag,
If it is really dangerous, why not open it and take a look.
The black carriage slowly drove on the straight long street. As the gaps in the stone slabs under the wheels vibrated from time to time, Ning Que couldn't help laughing as he looked at the tips in his hand. Sure enough, he still took some gifts before leaving.
He couldn't guess what was in the tip. He thought about the famous plots in the novel story, and had no intention of disassembling them. If they were disassembly, they would be useless. Do you have the right to go back to the south gate to watch Yan again?
Master Se asks for another one? Well, with his temperament, he can really do this, but why bother with this?
When he returned to Lao Bizhai, it was already dusk, and the setting sun came from the other end of the Forty-seven Alley. It happened to be half red. He greeted Boss Wu from the antique shop next door and glanced at the empty behind him.
The gray wall walked in.
The rice was steamed in the pot, and the white mist filled it. It slowly lingers along the tree in the patio and drifts towards the red sky. It cannot float far away and then dissipates in the air, unable to leave even a trace.
Sangsang looked up at the mist dissipating in the air with his little face, and his willow leaves narrowed his eyes very well.
Ning Que looked at the small figure beside the tree and said, "I'm back."
Sangsang turned around and looked at him, saying, "Young Master, you are back."
Uninnovative dialogue, monotonous and boring. For many years, Ning Que returned to the hunting house and returned to the small courtyard of Weicheng, he would have such a conversation with the little girl in the courtyard of the house, in this place near the Forty-seven Lane in Chang'an City
Year is no exception, but the word "Young Master" is added in the middle.
The supper before departure was nothing new. Although the bowl of amber chicken soup expressed some seriousness, there was nothing to say.
Since there was nothing to say, after washing his feet and turning off the lights, Ning Que lay on the bed and started to sleep.
He didn't tell the little girl on the other end of the bed. Although this would be the first time he was separated from Sangsang for so long, he believed that the little girl could take good care of herself, because the little girl was taking care of two people over the years.
Life is now less troublesome and picky, she should live a happier and easier life.
In the late summer, the temperature at night is no longer so annoying. The cicadas on the trees are gradually weakening. The stars shine on the quiet leaves, and then reflect in from the window, covering the walls and beds.
Favorite silver.
A sound of shattering sound came out. Sangsang crawled over from the other end of the bed in a thin single dress. Her thin knees pressed the silver bedding out of a different depth, and then she lay in Ning Que's arms.
Ning Que opened his eyes and said, "I said it many times, you are a big girl now."
Sangsang nodded, adjusted the angle, placed his head on his chest, and refused to move again.
This night before parting is the same as many nights in the past years, and it is no different.
...
...
The morning before parting was the same as the mornings of the past year, and there was no difference. After eating a bowl of hot and sour noodles soup bought by Sangsang, brushed his teeth with the tooth tools handed over by Sangsang, and washed his face with the towels that Sangsang had twisted.
, under the service of Sangsang's little hands, Ning Que took up his heavy luggage, pushed open the shop door and walked out.
The morning light was clear and he waved to the little girl at the shop door, and the carriage slowly moved.
The black carriage stopped at the edge of the large meadow in front of the academy and turned back the same way. Today, the coachman Lao Duan did not need to wait for Ning Que to return to the city because Ning Que did not return to the city.
The meadow was already full of people, and the students of the academy, with an excited and nervous expression, said goodbye to their parents. The parents seemed to have endless words to say, and the luggage prepared for the children seemed to always be missing, but the young students were thinking.
I have already floated to the far north, as if I have seen a great future for making achievements.
Of course, not all the academy students are so excited to look forward to the next journey. For example, Chu Youxian, who was surrounded by a wealthy businessman in the East City and several concubines in the distance, had a face full of complaints and fear.
Ning Que looked over there and smiled, then turned to look at Situ Yilan, who looked heroic and heroic in red arrow suits beside him, and said curiously: "I really didn't expect that no one would give you any gifts."
Situ Yilan smiled and said, "It's called "True Cultivation" and went to war. My father only encouraged me to go to battle and kill the enemy, but he didn't mean to send me off. Besides, you are different, no one will give me off?"
Ning Que shook his head and said, "I have no father or mother, and I don't even have a relative. Who will come to see me off?"
Situ Yilan looked at the two people walking out of the academy and said, "It seems that someone will come to see you off."
The third senior sister Yu Lian and Chen Pipi came out of the academy. The students of the academy on the meadow and the elders knew the identities of these two people through the teaching office and hurriedly made way for the way.
The autumn breeze softly blew the woman's hair on her forehead, making this arrogant and stingy female professor look a little younger.
Since entering the second floor of the academy, Ning Que rarely had the opportunity to talk to his third senior sister in private. When he saw her coming to see him off, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised and said, "Thank you, senior sister."
Yu Lian handed him a small thing and said with a smile: "Senior sister has nothing to give her, so I will give you a word. No matter what happens, you just need to start from your heart and you can easily overcome it."
"Thank you for your advice from senior sister."
Ning Que turned to Chen Pipi, looked at this friend who had brought endless help to his cultivation career, and smiled after a moment of silence, "What are you going to give me some?"
A morning breeze came to the meadow, wrinkling the face of tangerine Pipi. He said seriously: "I'll send it to you..."
Ning Que shook his head and sighed, "You are becoming more and more shameless."
Chen Pipi said with emotion: "Learn from you."
Ning Que replied with a smile: "Progress together."
Chen Pipi also laughed, and then asked seriously: "Is there anything to explain?"
Ning Que originally wanted to say that what he should have been explained, but after thinking about it, he said, "You know."
"What do I know?"
"I have a little maid at home."
...
...
From a young soldier from a border town, climbed the tower and won the third son Xie, he was forgotten by the academy and was silent. Then he forgot the academy and climbed the mountain and won the prince Longqing. He eventually became the only one among this class of students who entered the second floor, and then led him.
All the classmates went to Yanbei Wasteland to participate in the actual practice. Ning Que now has undoubtedly become a legendary figure in the eyes of ordinary students in the academy.
He had already attracted a lot of attention when he talked to Situ Yilan, and then more eyes fell on him with the arrival of Professor Yu Lian and Chen Pipi. These eyes were extremely complicated, either awe, envy, or jealous, or dare not hate him.
.
When Ning Que picked up the heavy luggage under his feet and walked towards the meadow, he had been watching him silently, and there were many shock and confusion in the dozens of gazes. With so much luggage, look at him.
What kind of horse can bear it when it gets so heavy? Why is he walking towards the meadow?
Three Pu Knife, the disassembled iron bow and the thirteen talisman arrows in the quiver, the commonly used boxwood bow and ordinary feather arrows, the necessary things on the journey include a folded tent, and a tight coarse cloth
A big black umbrella wrapped.
The luggage was carefully sorted out by Sangsang last night, and the size has been reduced to a point that it cannot be reduced. However, because there are too many things, it still looks particularly spectacular when put together, just like a small hill.
Ning Que walked to the meadow fence with his heavy luggage, raised his eyes to the distance and looked for his goal.
On the other end of the fence, the remaining military horses on the meadow, which were picked by the academy students, were hanging their heads and eating grass or resting silently. They could not tell whether they were despairing. In the wide grassland further away, there was a black line of
The shadow was rushing back and forth, like a black thunder, with the sound of hooves.
When the black shadow slows down, it can be seen clearly that it was an extremely strong black horse. The big black horse kept chasing and slamming its companions beside it. Other horses scattered around in fear, but it refused to let go.
He chased and bitten, and whistled a few times from time to time, making him look particularly domineering and despicable.
Ning Que smiled at the big dark horse, put his finger into his lips and whistled.
The whistle spread to the top of the meadow.
The big dark horse who was bullying his companion was mercilessly and suddenly stiffened after listening to the whistle. His four legs were nailed into the soft grass like nails, and he could no longer move, and looked like a black painted building.
The Trojan horse was left with only two big black eyes turning quickly, and the fear expression inside could be clearly seen.
It twisted its stiff neck with difficulty, looked back at the figure by the fence in the distance, and finally connected the most unpleasant memories in its mind to this person.
Another whistle sounded, as if urging.
The big dark horse lifted the horse's hooves with difficulty, walked slowly towards the fence with his head hanging down, and he felt so reluctant and reluctant to leave every step, as if he was going to marry into a female star with a bad reputation and wealthy family who didn't know what the future would be.
He walked slowly to the fence, and the big dark horse looked at Ning Que behind the fence, shaking the horse's head slightly, and at the same time he laughed out loud, as if to express his absolute surrender and flattery.
It has been more than a year since the college entrance examination was admitted. The big dark horse's temper has not improved at all and is still violent. However, in front of Ning Que, it still dares not have any temper.
But when it saw Ning Que's luggage like a hill, it no longer cared about the fear in its instinct, let out a terrifying hiss, turned around and prepared to escape.
Ning Que stared at it and said, "The old rules."
The big dark horse stopped.
Ning Que continued, "I will kill you if I don't obey."
The big dark horse lowered its head and turned around.
Ning Que hung his hill-like luggage on its saddle.
...
...
In the late summer and early autumn of the 14th year of the Age of Revelation, the academy began this practical practice.
The team leader is the weakest second-floor disciple of the academy who has not even seen the teacher or the senior brother.
In the backyard of Lao Bizhai, Sangsang stared at the giggling old hen in a daze, thinking that he should have slaughtered you yesterday so that he could eat more, otherwise what if he was hungry on the road?
On the outskirts of Chang'an City, Ning Que looked at the picturesque scenery of Minshe Village by the road, thinking that there would be many days when he would not be able to drink the chicken soup she made. As soon as he left, he began to miss it.
The empire in the early morning was shrouded in a faint glimmer.
The sound of horse hooves, and the green clothes vibrate.
