Chapter 467 469 Academy in Danger
After the two children started school, Rong Xianxian suddenly had more free time during the day.
While she was dealing with the various affairs of the mercenary group and the shop, she was multitasking, holding the pocket watch given to her by Yan Zishu and staring at the children in class from time to time.
Because the school stipulates that children under the age of four cannot be enrolled, when Ning Qingyun registered his children, the basic information he submitted was that the two children were one four and one five years old. According to the school curriculum, children aged four and five study the same curriculum, so Ning Qingyun asked to put the two children in the same class so that they could be taken care of.
Xuanxuan has attended kindergarten before and performs well in class. Xiaoluo sometimes has difficulty concentrating, but fortunately, the teachers in class are very patient with the children.
Although these children are of kindergarten age, they learn cultural courses according to the standards of elementary school students. In addition to the regular courses in elementary school before the end of the world, the school has also added combat training and wildlife recognition courses. They learn cultural knowledge in the morning and learn survival skills and combat training in the afternoon. The course schedule for older children is more intensive.
There are more than 20 children in Xuanxuan's class. In addition to the teachers who only teach classes, there are three life teachers who are responsible for supervision and care. Among them, a young female teacher named Chai seems to like Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo very much. With her care and encouragement, Xuanxuan and Xiaoluo quickly integrated into the group and became familiar with other children.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. Most of the money earned from Rong Xianxian's shop was used to buy construction materials and transported to the vacant land in the ninth district of the outer city. With money and materials, a high wall had been built on the vacant land in just half a month. The wall was thick and solid, and the interior was specially treated to be shock-proof and explosion-proof. Special materials such as shock-absorbing pads were used to ensure basic defense functions. The outer wall also had a watchtower with observation function and a hidden corner tower, with holes left for setting up crossbows. In addition, a three-story gatehouse was built in each of the eight directions of the courtyard wall for night guards to rest and change shifts.
This is the advantage of buying land and building a house yourself. As long as you are willing to spend money, you can build the house into a solid fortress.
With sufficient manpower, the above-ground construction progressed very quickly. In contrast, the underground construction progress was much slower due to the need for confidentiality.
The above-ground part of the project was done by the people who followed him from Jindu, while the underground part was done by workers that Jiang Jie randomly picked up from the labor market. A new batch of people would be replaced every few days, and some key nodes would rather have a slower progress and only rely on a few companions who were completely trusted to do the work personally, to prevent others from discovering the secrets of the underground project.
Jiang Jie now basically stays at the construction site all day, and occasionally comes back to report the progress of the project to Rong Xianxian.
The construction site was like a money-shredding machine. The shop was making money and spending it like water.
However, looking at the large courtyard with a training ground and a back garden rising from the original vacant land covered with weeds, Rong Xianxian felt a sense of accomplishment. She bought the land, paid for the building materials used to build the house, and paid for the wages of the workers working on the construction site. In other words, this courtyard was her personal property.
On the twentieth day of the child's enrollment, during the afternoon fighting training class, during the break, the teacher announced that everyone could move freely. Rong Xianxian saw Xiao Luo chasing and playing with his classmates through her pocket watch. Because the child was running, the picture on Rong Xianxian's side was shaking violently. She watched the child run a little far away. On one side of the road, she could see purple, slender bamboos, one by one, sparsely distributed. After staring at them for a long time, her eyes became a little tired. Rong Xianxian looked away and paid attention. Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat. She turned her head and saw that the classmate who was playing with Xiao Luo slipped and fell to the ground suddenly. He hugged Xiao Luo's legs, and then an arrow with a cold glow shot straight at Xiao Luo's forehead.
Originally, Xiao Luo was a Chongmai realm practitioner and could easily rely on his perception to dodge the arrow, but that classmate suddenly hugged Xiao Luo tightly. This sudden action interfered with Xiao Luo's perception of external danger, causing him to not notice the arrow until it was in front of him.
Rong Xianxian's heart was beating in her throat until she saw a flash of white light on Xiao Luo's body, the arrow fell to the ground, and Xiao Luo stepped on the classmate's arm. Only then did Rong Xianxian breathe a sigh of relief. The panic in her heart had just dissipated, and a burst of anger was burning.
The arrow was blocked by the Vajra Talisman worn by Xiao Luo. It seemed that the arrow did not have great explosive power and the Vajra Talisman did not break. However, no matter how small the power was, there was no possibility of survival if he was shot in the head. Judging from the reaction of the classmate just now, this was definitely not a coincidence, but a premeditated ambush.
Rong Xianxian took out the jade talisman with a special pattern, and Ning Qingyun handed the one in his hand to Mingyan before leaving.
Rong Xianxian had not originally planned to use the people left by Ning Qingyun, but when she thought of what Ning Qingyun said, Mingyan had many intelligence personnel under her, who could find out what she wanted to investigate as quickly as possible, Rong Xianxian still transferred Mingyan over. She wanted to investigate some things as quickly as possible.
Rong Xianxian had already captured the video clip just now. Now she was watching the situation on the child's side through her pocket watch. The two life teachers in the class had already rushed over. Teacher Chai checked Xiao Luo's physical condition in panic. Seeing that he was unharmed, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Another teacher wanted to help the student who fell to the ground, but the student screamed, and one of his arms was strangely bent back, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead.
"Teacher, he deliberately stepped on my arm and broke it. My arm hurts so much, wow..." The classmate stared at Xiao Luo fiercely and complained to the teacher. Xiao Luo raised his foot slightly, and the classmate shivered all over and burst into tears.
"Xiao Luo, did you really step on Yi Bai's arm?" The teacher who was supporting Yi Bai looked at Xiao Luo with a complicated expression.
In fact, she was a little skeptical in her heart. Even without examinations such as bone palpation and X-rays, she could tell that this was not a dislocation or fracture, and it could still be corrected. From her unprofessional point of view, Yi Bai's forearm bones were almost all broken, and the bones under the skin and flesh were strangely shaped, twisted and swollen. It could be said that this arm was basically useless.
"He suddenly hugged me, and at that moment an arrow was shot towards me. I was so nervous that I accidentally stepped on his arm." Xiao Luo snuggled into Teacher Chai's arms, hugged Teacher Chai's neck, and said aggrievedly.
