Nightfall Chapter 85: The storm is rising outside the building

Chapter 85 The Storm Rises Outside the Building

The thin "A Preliminary Exploration of the Snowy Mountains" is now pressed in his hands like a big mountain. He took a deep breath and looked out the window for a long time, waiting for those lush forest shoots to dye green With tired and dry eyes, he lowered his head again to continue reading silently. After a while, he raised his head again and looked at the snow-white roof to rest.

When he first read these magical practice books, he could only support a few sentences, but now the time he can support is getting longer and longer, although he still doesn’t know after returning to Lin 47 Lane every day. He saw where he was, but he had a very cryptic but clear feeling, knowing that he was seeing more day by day.

The ability to last longer is not because his resistance to the runes and ink characters in the booklet has become stronger, but the willpower has been honed in this war more and more tenacious, and he is not Stop looking for the right time between rest and reading, and look for all the ways to support yourself for longer.

"If you look at it this way, you will see it dead."

Beside Fang Ming by the window, the female professor who had always bowed her head and traced the lower case letter slowly raised her head, put the pen in her hand on the inkstone, and watched Ning Que whose body was shaking and said in harmony. .

Ning Que slowly closed the booklet, turned around with difficulty, and bowed to the female professor by the window. Xie Chengyun at the end of the bookshelf also slowly closed the booklet and politely bowed to the female professor. .

As the only two students on this floor, they certainly know that there is always a female professor sitting by the window, but this gentleman seems to always describe himself in lower letters, no matter if someone is unconscious or whatever, It would make her look up, so she gradually became a corner of the landscape, a non-existent existence.

And today the female professor finally put down the pen in her hand and started talking.

"The practice books on this floor are all written by great practitioners who have absorbed the power of the ink. To put it another way, each ink character in these books is the supreme masterpiece of the **** rune master."

The female professor looked at Xie Chengyun, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, and said: "You two have great perseverance. You can even be said to be the most persevering students in the college in the past ten years, but you must know one thing, to see through the runes. The supreme quality of the teacher, perseverance is useless, to enter the book, break the book and know the book, you must have the ability to advance to the cave."

Then she turned her head to look at Ning Que, and said with a slight pity: "Xie Chengyun has passed the realm of perception and will not be confused, so he can support it for a longer time, and the understanding in the building will always be beneficial to his cultivation. Your physique is not suitable for spiritual practice at all, and you can only rely on perseverance to work hard here, which will do you all harm but not benefit. It is better to... go back soon."

Ning Que stood on the spot and was silent for a long time. He suddenly asked the female professor, "Student asks Mr., but dare you to ask Mr. Dongxuan?"

The female professor shook her head.

Ning Que understood, and continued to ask with a gentle smile: "Mr. Dare to ask if he reached the upper stage of Dongxuan when he entered the academy earlier this year."

The female professor smiled slightly and understood what he meant.

Ning Que once again said sincerely, "Students still want to watch more days."

The female professor glanced at him appreciatively and said: "After all, you still have to do what you can. If you are blindly persistent, don't blame me for stopping."

"Yes, sir."

Not long after this conversation, Ning Que and Xie Chengyun fainted again one after another. The four deacons in college robes have long been accustomed to this, even the weight of both of them is equal. Clearly, they picked them up blankly, and didn't bother to shout anything, so they went downstairs.

The forest shoots in the deep spring are dense and dense green. From the window into the old second floor, the female professor looked at the spring scenery outside the window and shook her head with a smile, and then she was about to lower her head and continue to trace her lower letters. Going up and down, she walked up to her and bowed respectfully, saying: "Teacher, the student has something unknown."

The female professor looked at him and said gently: "I have recently discovered some wonderful things that I don't understand, so I might as well refer to them."

The old teacher sighed and said: "I have watched these two students for many days. Xie Chengyun has a foundation in practice, and combined with his perseverance, he can support so many days upstairs. Although it is not easy, it is not uncommon. However, Ning Que is clearly a worldly root, so why can it last so long? This makes no sense."

The female professor looked at the ink gradually dyed by the inkstone, and said quietly after a moment of silence: "I remember many years ago, my husband said that if a person's will is strong enough, then even God will be afraid... …I think this child named Ning Que is probably this kind of person with strong enough will."

For the next few days, things seemed to be normal. We started class in the morning, had lunch in the afternoon, and boarded the building in the afternoon. Under the gaze of the students of the school, Ning Que and Xie Chengyun went to the building first or later, or first or later. Being carried out, just when this situation seemed to be about to become a daily scene, there was finally a new change.

Ning Que asked Mr. Xi that he could bring in food without shells, oils and crumbs in the old village, so he had a few white flour flatbreads today, but when he was about to walk into the old village, he was stopped by someone.

"When on earth are you going to bet?" Situ Yilan took Jin Wucai's little hand and looked at him angrily, watching his pale cheeks, her heart softened for no reason, and she lowered the tone. Said: "Now the whole college knows that you are the most persevering students, why bother to continue?"

Ning Que rubbed his astringent eyes and looked at her inexplicably, as if he didn’t understand what she was saying. In fact, he did not understand. However, this expression fell in the eyes of the onlookers, more like Some kind of provocation.

Situ Yilan said angrily: "Look at what you look like now, with dark circles under your eyes, pale face, and you will fall down when blown by the wind, just like that **** ghost Chu Youxian. We all know that you, like us, cannot practice. In that case, what's the point of going upstairs, why bother to fight with the third son of Xie and keep going upstairs?"

Chu Youxian squeezed out of the crowd, supported Ning Que's left arm, looked at Situ Yilan and raised her eyebrows and said, "Miss Situ, although you are the daughter of General Yunhui, there are still some things you can't say nonsense, I It's lustful but not a ghost."

Then he turned his head and looked at Ning Que’s pale cheeks, and said sincerely, "But to be honest, I also advise you not to go upstairs anymore, why bother to be angry? Even if you give up now, you are an ordinary person. With the cultivation genius Xie San Gongzi until now, who said you can’t praise twice?"

Ning Que smiled and looked at the people in front of him and said: "I think you are really misunderstanding. I went upstairs just to read a book. It has nothing to do with things like anger and anger. I want to thank the third son I think so too."

"You don't know what he thinks."

Situ Yilan looked at him solemnly and said: "The third son enters the academy for only one purpose, and that is to enter the second floor. If he can't even compare to you, how can he be confident enough to enter the second floor? Floor?"

"Second floor?" Ning Que frowned slightly, feeling as if he had heard this statement somewhere, scratching his head and said, "Don't Xie San Gongzi and I read in the second floor every day?" /

"You don't even know the second floor? Then why are you going upstairs so desperately?"

Situ Yilan widened his eyes and looked at him, as if looking at a god, and explained in surprise: "The second floor of the academy is not the old second floor, but a very wonderful place. All true sages I have studied in the second floor, and I heard that there are still a lot of outsiders in the world."

"What does that have to do with upstairs?" Ning Que pointed to the roof blankly.

"Because the door to the second floor is on the old second floor." Situ Yilan said angrily, "I know it's a bit confusing, but you only need to know that the second floor of the academy is very difficult to enter. , I heard that only seven or eight people have entered in the past ten years. Since you don’t have this idea, why bother with Xie San Gongzi."

Ning Que looked at her and smiled and said, "You mean, in order not to affect the third son of Xie’s cultivation path, in order not to undermine his confidence in entering the second floor, so I should let me... ?"

As soon as this statement was made, the crowd onlookers were silent, because this kind of request could not make sense anyway, and it seemed extremely rude. Jin Wucai, who had been standing silently beside Situ Yilan, bit her lower lip and broke away from her partner's hand. She walked to Ning Que and gave a very serious salute. Her voice trembled and said, "Please also classmate Ning to complete it, San Gongzi ...... The third son had already vomited blood after returning to the mansion last night, and he really couldn't keep it going."

It was the first time that Ning Que knew that the young man who went upstairs with him every day had paid so much for this. He thought about his vomiting every day and night, and thought about the concern and worry on Sangsang’s little face. Fell silent.

At this moment, Zhong Dajun looked at him coldly and said: "Does it need to be in a low voice with this kind of person? I don't believe that an ordinary person can stay upstairs for so many days. When he was crying and studying upstairs, who knew what he was doing upstairs, maybe he was just closing his eyes and resting."

Xie Chengyun is a talented scholar in the Southern Jin Dynasty. This time, he stayed in Zhong Dajun's mansion when he went to the north to study in Yangguan. The two of them are well-known, and they have a good relationship with each other.

Zhong Dajun watched his friend being forced by Ning Que to go upstairs until he vomited blood last night. He was already extremely angry. Of course, or even he didn’t understand, the reason why he really made such a malicious speculation was just because He was not reconciled that all his eyes in the academy were snatched away by soldiers from the border town in front of him.

Zhuxin’s vicious speculation, but the partial life seemed very consistent with the real situation. The eyes of the students looking at Ning Que became a little complicated. At this moment, two cars came back and forth on the stone path outside the building. In the carriage, Xie Chengyun, with a pale face, was helped out of the carriage. He looked at this side in a daze, but never said a word.
