Chapter 208: Closer to the Top of the Mountain



"In a month at most, I will go up the mountain."

Tianming handed the backpack to Xia Xiao as a farewell to him.

The foothills and the mountainside are only a few kilometers apart, and this method is enough to show his importance to Xia Xiao. As for destiny, Xia Xiao is not worried. Destiny will come sooner or later, but Qin Feng and Mu Lin may not. In this land of geniuses, Qin Feng and Mu Lin's talents and efforts are not particularly outstanding. With the current trend, there will be no problem in completing the required number of tasks, but whether they can walk on the mountain road is still unknown.

The worry in his eyes was caught by Qin Feng and Mu Lin. They were quite moved. Perhaps the only people who truly cared about them were Xia Xiao and Tian Ming.

"Brother Xiao, don't worry, we will definitely catch up with you!"

Xia Xiao nodded slightly and was very optimistic about them.

"As I said before, hard work can make up for lack of talent. Don't be a stubborn person. If there is something you can't understand, go ask the teacher, or go to the Little West Building. Don't ask about fate, it is different from you."

Tianming was unhappy when he heard this, but for the sake of Qin Feng and Mu Lin, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

In the dormitory, the three of them spent the most time together every day, often discussing cultivation, but the experience shared by Tianming could not solve the problems encountered by Qin Feng and Mu Lin. The gap between humans and wild beasts lies in their bones, in their flesh and blood. As for Xiaoxilou, Qin Feng and Mu Lin have been able to connect with its mind, but they can never compare with Xia Xiao, because they have never seen the old woman Xia Xiao mentioned.

With the word "left", from now on, there will be one less person to wake them up early in the "218" dormitory, but they dare not be lazy. Because they all know that although the foot of the mountain is not far from the mountainside, they are two completely different worlds. That brand new world is in front of them, and they want to go in and take a look no matter what!

Ah Zhu and Xie Ting held hands and came down from the second floor together. She also only carried a very light bag, as if to prove that they were leaving. As for the clothes and bedding, since they decided to live on the mountainside, they went to their new place. In a place like the college, it would be strange if you had to move everything by yourself.

Ah Zhu added a lot more rice and finished eating when it was dark. There was some soup left at the corner of her mouth. She stood on the side of the Qingwa Building and saw Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang heading towards the mountainside. She was envious. She also wanted to live on the mountainside, because that would mean she really stayed in the academy, but she couldn't do it yet.

Ah Zhu felt that she had wasted a lot of time because of the meal. She sighed in regret and hurried to the Little West Building. Every day, there was a strange visitor in the Little West Building, a pot of flowers. In the white porcelain pot grew something like a garlic, with very tall seedlings on it. Next to it, there was always a book, which was flipped from time to time, as if it was being read. Today, it was still on the windowsill as usual!

I heard from Long Li that this was also a student from the same class in the academy. I don't know what kind of treasure it is. But with its ability to appear and disappear without a trace, it must be an extraordinary thing. Even a pot of flowers is so serious, Ah Zhu must also work hard.

Sitting under the bookshelf, Ah Zhu asked the old woman for a book on cultivation that laymen could read, and began to review breathing exercises in advance. The pot of garlic flowers always paid attention to Ah Zhu, and finally came to her today.

Doudou lay on the ground. He didn't want to move after eating, and he didn't dare to run around. He knew that this was the library. But when he saw the garlic flower, he raised his paw and scratched it curiously. What is this? Is it edible? He couldn't eat it anymore, so he had to eat it tomorrow!

The garlic flower seedlings were tall, with only three leaves. They flapped their leaves in turn, hitting Doudou on the head, causing him to scream in pain. He turned and ran, but bumped into a bookshelf, causing stars to appear in his eyes. His round belly turned upside down, and Doudou stuck out his tongue, causing Ah Zhu's face to change.

Crouching beside Doudou, Ah Zhu was about to cry. Doudou was the only relative around her, and she couldn't let him die! If he died, she would be all alone. Doudou was a dramatic person. He opened his left eye to look at the flower pot, and only got up and rubbed Ah Zhu's feet when he saw that it didn't move. He looked pitiful, like a bullied child.

"Hey, don't bully Doudou!"

Ah Zhu was very angry and yelled at the flower pot. The flower pot disappeared and returned to the windowsill. Ah Zhu saw it and taught Doudou a lesson.

"You are a wolfdog, how can you be afraid of a pot of flowers? If it bullies you, just bite it!"

Doudou symbolically barked at the flowerpot a few times, thinking that his barking threats could not reach the windowsill at all. After barking, he shrank his head and squinted at Azhu, seeking approval. Doudou grew up quickly, from a little puppy to a dog, but to become a ferocious wolfdog, he still needs professional training!

From now on, Ah Zhu will train it. After the master's teaching, Ah Zhu knows that Doudou cannot become his contracted beast, but it is still his little baby.

At the square, Wang Ling failed to climb the mountain again, and he was a little disappointed with himself. Ah Zhu once said that this road was straight, so he walked straight, cutting down trees and crushing rocks, but he never reached the mountainside, and returned to the starting point.

He stamped his foot on the ground, making a loud noise. Wang Ling's face flushed. His pride would not allow him to fail. In the past, he didn't care about this mountain road. After all, he still had half a year to climb the mountain. But now Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang have climbed the mountain one after another, and he hasn't even seen the shadow of the mountainside. He once boasted that Xia Xiao was his opponent. But now his opponent has stepped into another world, and he is still standing still!

"This path is different for each person, so just listen to other people's advice and experiences, don't take them too seriously."

The voice was extremely cold and cold, without any mockery, but in Wang Ling's ears there was only naked humiliation. It was like two slaps in the face, calling him an incompetent waste, saying that even with the experience of others, he could not climb the mountain and reach the mountainside.

Xia Xiao held an umbrella and walked up the mountain road with Shu Shuang, passing Wang Ling. He knew it was these two guys. They were now capable and famous, and the gap between them and him was getting smaller and smaller, and even surpassed him. Wang Ling's only dignity was that his strength was higher than theirs, at least on the outside. But if they really fought, it would be terrible!

"I'll be up soon!"

Wang Ling's voice was loud, but it could not tear through the night, nor could it stop Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang from moving forward. They set foot on the road without a single drop of snow, walked up the mountainside, and arrived at this small town in the night.

Because of the snow, the world became bright. The arrival of Xia Xiao and the others did not break the tranquility, but was a little hasty in the snow. Their figures kept moving forward, disturbing the snowflakes dancing in the air. There was no one to welcome them in the town, and no one was waiting for them, which made them seem a little unappreciated. But this is the old rule of the academy. No matter which country the prince or the young master is, he is a student here. And no matter how outstanding a student is, he is just a student!

A rather mysterious traction pulled Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang to the end of an alley, and then to a five-story building. Following the traction, Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang walked to a room on the second floor. But was this trend, that meant they were to live together? If so... it was too considerate.

The academy is different. It does not succumb to power, because no one is more powerful than it. It does not bow to others either, because it is the top existence in the entire wilderness, and only others can look up to it. Whether the wilderness is in chaos or not depends on the academy. If one day the academy abandons goodness and becomes a prostitute, the wilderness will definitely tremble!

The academy that releases human nature is pleasing, but there are also things that Xia Xiao doesn't like, such as the small size of the foothills, and the intimacy between him and Shu Shuang is limited to kissing and hugging. But now that he has a room, isn't he afraid that there will be one more person in the academy one day?

The door opened, like a promise, and also like a confirmation of Xia Xiao and Shu Shuang's thoughts, they really want to live together. But the college believes in Xia Xiao, he will naturally not do anything out of line. But when the door is closed, a passionate kiss is inevitable.

When you are young, the more things weigh on your mind, the more you want to seek liberation. At this time, Shu Shuang, who hugged Xia Xiao's waist with her backhand and indulged in the kiss, was Xia Xiao's greatest desire. Tonight, there was a breeze outside the window, and the heavy snow was dazzled, but there was a spring light in the room, and it was also as hot as midsummer.

Opposite the door was a small living room where they could grow flowers and drink tea. On both sides were two small rooms, each with a small bed. Tonight, they slept in each other's arms, just like in the cold winter in Wanling City. Only each other's warmth could warm the cold air.

In the darkness, Shu Shuang blushed, but she was very proactive in cooperating with Xia Xiao. These were things she could not understand before, but when she was with the one she loved, she was happy to do anything. She was willing to do anything. Biting her lower lip slightly, Shu Shuang looked up at the ceiling and smiled happily.

Young people's emotions are like dry firewood, which can be ignited by a spark. Unlike the elderly, even if they are in the fire, it is difficult for them to burn with it.

On the rooftop, Hu Bugui and Di Muli stood between the bright sky and earth, smiling at each other. They were both gentlemen, so who wouldn't understand the love between a young man and a young woman?

"I wanted to teach them tonight, but it seems I don't have time!"

They are one step closer to the top of the mountain, but whether the ending will be that they stay here forever like themselves, or reach the top of the mountain, is still unknown.

"Don't worry, you are young and have plenty of time. Unlike us old bones, we can't do that."

"Don't listen to what others say, I can do it!"

Hu Bugui straightened his back, raised his hips, and looked frivolous.

"Since when did you start learning to look for the child? You are so shameless."

"Shh~"

After Dimuli said this, Hu Bugui became nervous and looked around. Qingxunzi had just left, so he couldn't say that, otherwise the old man would wave his hand and Dimuli would have to rest for several days. He suddenly coughed, and Hu Bugui hurried to help him, but the guy was just joking.

Seeing that he was deliberately teasing him, Hu Bugui pushed him and blew up his beard.

"You are the one who is really indecent!"

Dimuli smiled and suddenly became younger. Perhaps this was the infectious power of youth, which made the two old men feel refreshed and as if they were in their prime.

"Let's go, stop looking!"

Dimuli looked disgusted, which made Hu Bugui laugh and scold.

"I didn't see it!"

On the snow-covered street, the two of them carried a lantern, two kilograms of wine, and a few bags of snacks and went back to the house to get drunk. The vice president had just left today, and the college needed careful care. Today was also their last drink in the next few years.

"I heard that Qingxunzi even got drunk on Senior Sister's Peach Blossom Wine."

"We must get drunk, too."

"Just get drunk, Senior Sister doesn't drink anymore, let's help her finish it!"
