Looking at Tang Xiaotang in the grass, Ning Que was stunned. He sighed and asked, "Are you a ghost? Why do you follow me wherever I go? No matter how fast I run, it doesn't seem to work. "
Tang Xiaotang did not have time to react to his unfriendly tone. That snow-white puppy rushed out from behind her, baring its sharp teeth and growling at Ning Que. However, it was probably because the memory of being ravaged by Ning Que in the Wilderness was too deep. It only dared to stand in front of its master to show its wildness, and did not dare to take a step closer to Ning Que.
"You run really fast. I almost thought you were from the Enlightenment Doctrine." Tang Xiaotang said, "But no matter how fast you run, you can't be faster than me."
Ning Que asked helplessly, "My little lady, what do you want to do with me?"
Tang Xiaotang said, "My brother wants me to enter the Academy and be a student of the Headmaster of the Academy."
Ning Que was stunned for a long time before he could confirm that he did not hear wrongly. He could not help but have the urge to burn all the winter grass in front of him. He said, "You two siblings are really crazy. How can you want to be a student of the Headmaster of the Academy? Don't you know that my teacher is the leader of the Righteous Faction in the Central Plains? Well, even though he rarely appears, at least he is a spiritual leader. Even if he doesn't use violent means to subdue you, do you think he will accept you as a disciple? "
Tang Xiaotang said confusedly, "My brother said that the Academy has always taught everyone without discrimination."
Ning Que said, "Anyway, I advise you to give up. I can't bring you to the back of the mountain of the Academy. Besides, I am now the most favored Younger Brother. Why should I have a Younger Sister like you?"
After saying this, he turned around and walked along the slightly slanted stone path towards the green slope on the side of the Academy. However, no matter how fast he walked, Tang Xiaotang and the little white puppy could always keep up with him.
Tang Xiaotang laughed behind him and said, "If the Headmaster of the Academy knew that you are such a shameless guy, he might not like you and might even kick you out. Then wouldn't I be able to fill in your vacancy?"
Ning Que thought that he was willing to do anything in his life and was used to flattering others. He thought of the generals in the City of Wei, Master Yan Se, and Eldest Brother. How could the Headmaster of the Academy escape from his control?
"Can we, can we meet again? I've been begging Buddha for thousands of years …"
At this moment, a singing voice suddenly came from below the stone path. The singer's voice was not very beautiful. It was not hoarse, but there was a strange old aura to it. Coupled with the lyrics and the fact that he was tone-deaf, he sang the melody as if he was speaking, which made it even more absurd and comical.
Tang Xiaotang curiously turned her head and looked behind her.
Although the melody was very strange to Ning Que, he felt that he had heard the lyrics somewhere before. Suddenly, he came to his senses. How could anyone else know this song besides him?
He looked down the stone path and saw a tall old man wearing a dark and expensive fox fur coat, carrying a lacquered food box, walking up the slope. Wasn't he the man from the Building of Pines and Cranes last night?
…
…
Looking at the old man, Ning Que felt a sharp pain in his head. He thought of the short wooden stick that had sneakily attacked him and a cold smile appeared on his lips. He was ready to stop the old man and beat him up.
This was the principle behind the so-called revenge and revenge, returning a stick with a fist.
Ning Que knew that even if he was drunk, he still had the strength to fight. However, he was knocked out by the old man with a stick. This old man must not be an ordinary rich man in Chang 'an. He was naturally vigilant. The Great Spirit in his body slowly circulated and his hands grasped the air as if he was holding a knife. In a moment, he was ready to fight.
Suddenly, he glimpsed the little white dog hiding behind Tang Xiaotang's small leather boots. Its ears were drooping and it was whimpering in fear. He could not help but feel a little moved.
He knew that the little white dog was not a dog, but a real snow wolf in the Wilderness. No matter how much the white wolf feared him, it did not have the slightest intention of surrendering to him. Then why did it behave like this at this time? Could it be that the old man had made it instinctively feel fear?
Ning Que had been fighting in the grassland of Min Mountain for many years. He did not know how many thrilling situations he had encountered. His reaction speed had long been tempered to be extraordinarily fast. At this time, it was just a tiny detail, but it was like a spark falling on a pile of hay. It ignited a raging flame in his mind and made him think of a certain possibility.
This was the Academy.
The tall old man in fox fur was very powerful.
Thinking of that possibility, Ning Que's heart moved slightly. Then, he quickly turned cold and trembled because of the shock.
At this critical moment, he perfectly displayed his control over his emotions and body.
Looking at the old man walking up the stairs, he did not show any extra emotions on his face. The sneer that had just appeared on the corner of his mouth seemed to have met the sunlight, and suddenly bloomed like a flower with incomparable warmth. The Great Spirit in his body melted silently like snow in spring, and his hands that were holding the hilt naturally raised into fists in front of his chest. He bowed slightly and said gently, "I didn't expect to see you again, old sir."
…
…
The Headmaster carried the food box and walked up the slope.
He looked at Ning Que in front of him with interest, but did not speak.
Ning Que looked back at the Headmaster calmly. His facial expression and body posture did not show any abnormalities. However, only he knew that in a place where the Headmaster could not see, his body that was about to collapse from the pressure was fiercely fighting against his strong willpower.
Dozens of beads of sweat slowly and quietly seeped out from his back, gradually wetting the back of his clothes.
Because he had to use his willpower to forcibly control his body's instinctive fear and reaction, even though he looked calm and the smile in his eyes was gentle and sweet, in fact, he had already used 120% of his strength. The soles of his feet were piercing, and his calves and abdomen were in pain. He could cramp at any time.
The Headmaster suddenly opened his mouth and said, "I am just an ordinary old man. You do not need to be so serious."
Ning Que said indignantly, "Who dares to say that you are an ordinary old man?"
The Headmaster's tall body slightly leaned forward and looked down at him. When Ning Que felt a little scared, he smiled and said, "But last night, someone said that I am a poor old man."
Ning Que felt that something was wrong, but he still wanted to put up a last-ditch struggle. He forced a smile and said, "Last night, I was talking nonsense after drinking. Someone like you would not care about a young man like me."
The Headmaster sighed and said, "Before I die of old age, I decided to take in one last student. In the end, before I die, I became the dead teacher in his words. Why should I bother?"
Ning Que felt like he was struck by lightning, but he still insisted on playing dumb and pretending that he did not understand.
The Headmaster looked at him and smiled. He said, "You are really good at playing dumb. But your clothes are already wet, and your feet are about to crush that stone. Why are you still pretending?"
Ning Que was like a broken wine jar when he was directly exposed. He no longer had the strength to persist and fell to the ground with a cry. He desperately rubbed his cramped calves and soles of his feet.
The Headmaster looked at him sitting on the ground and sighed. He shook his head and continued to walk up the slope with the food box.
The sigh was very light, but it sounded like thunder in Ning Que's ears. He thought that the Headmaster was completely disappointed in him. What should he do?
He had gone through thousands of difficulties in this life, and he did not know how many times he had been on the brink of death before he finally walked into the back of the mountain of the Academy and had the life he had today. Everything he had was because of this teacher that he had never met. How could he watch all of this go to waste?
Ning Que bounced up from the ground as if he had been stung. He ran forward with a limp and respectfully followed behind the Headmaster. He reached out and wanted to carry the food box for the old man.
The Headmaster did not hand the food box to him. He looked at Tang Xiaotang, who was standing in the grass in a daze, and waved his hand to call her over. Then, he handed the food box to her.
Tang Xiaotang finally woke up at this time. From Ning Que's expression and the previous conversation, she confirmed the identity of this tall old man. She took the heavy food box with her little hand and looked at Ning Que with a smile. Then, she happily followed the Headmaster into the Academy with the little white wolf.
Looking at the tall and solemn back of the Headmaster on the slanting stone steps, Ning Que was extremely depressed.
He had thought that as the youngest student on the Second floor of the Academy, he would be the legendary youngest. With his ability to be thick-skinned, black-hearted, and sweet, he would definitely be able to make the Headmaster happy and be doted on in the Academy in the future. However, who would have thought that the old man on the balcony of the Building of Pines and Cranes, who did not look like a decent person, and who had been teased by him for half a night, was his teacher?
And looking at the current situation, the Headmaster might really take Tang Xiaotang into the Second floor of the Academy. Wouldn't that mean that he would lose his position as the youngest and naturally protected?
…
…
Walking out of the mountain fog, they came to the cliff yard at the back of the mountain.
No one knew where the Headmaster had gone.
Tang Xiaotang stood under a ginkgo tree and was enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Academy's back of the mountain.
Ning Que walked to her side and remained silent.
The Little White Wolf was running on the meadow at the foot of the hill. It had probably never seen such a green meadow in the Wilderness. It was extremely excited and actually ran faster and faster, almost turning into a white lightning.
Suddenly, a black bolt of lightning shot out from the side and instantly surpassed the little white wolf. Like a black rain cloud, it enveloped the little white wolf's entire body.
It was the Big Black Horse.
The Little White Wolf was scared silly by the Big Black Horse's imposing manner. Those hooves that were like big trees, and hearing those war-drum-like hooves, it was so scared that it shrank into a ball and did not dare to move.
Ning Que sneered and was ready to boast to Tang Xiaotang who was beside him.
However, it was indeed not suitable for him to sneer today. Because in the next moment, the sneer that had just appeared on his lips once again turned into a helpless and embarrassed expression.
Because the Big Black Horse that looked rather imposing was actually a deserter.
A big white goose was chasing from the other end of the meadow. Its movements looked comical, but it was extremely fast. Especially its high neck, it looked like the ancient crown on a certain person's head. It was extremely proud.
Catching a glimpse of the Big White Goose, the Big Black Horse neighed in fear. Its four hooves were flying, and it once again galloped towards the other end of the meadow as fast as lightning. It could not stop panting, looking extremely aggrieved.
