The snow is getting heavier.

The roaring and raging cold wind seemed to be blocked and trapped by layers of snow curtains composed of swirling goose feathers and heavy snow, and disappeared after struggling for a while.

Two black umbrellas are propped up at the edge of the basketball court.

"That child does seem to be different." Yuan Cixin said with a smile.

He is only in his early 40s this year, with a fair complexion, short hair, piercing eyes, and a tall and slender figure. He wears a black windbreaker, a white shirt and a blue and white tie, and black trousers. Black leather shoes.Whether it is the image of his clothes or his calm and steady temperament, when people see him for the first time, they will involuntarily feel a sense of respect from the bottom of their hearts.

Shi Linhuan, who was wearing a brown fur coat with a fur collar, nodded, and said, "I always thought that this talented child should be surrounded by experts to help him."

"I'm not talking about his extraordinary talent." Yuan Cixin smiled and said jokingly: "It's about his courage and character... It's hard to imagine that in such a high school campus, he is the one you have repeatedly emphasized. An outstanding student with a mature and wise mind dares to embrace the girl he likes affectionately in public, as if he doesn't care about anyone's gaze at all, and his rebellious and unruly performance is too different."

"That's all you're worried about?" Shi Linhuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Yuan Cixin turned his head and said: "I don't think there is any need to pay too much attention to him in other aspects. Although, he does have the appearance of a fusion of two souls, and he has a strange appearance of a fairy. Unfortunately, it has been delayed."

"You mean, are you sure that Su Chunfeng doesn't practice magic?" Shi Linhuan frowned slightly, and said, "Impossible, since he has a master of magic around him, how could he be willing to watch him with such a high talent?" The practice genius, delaying the best practice age?"

"I'm not mistaken." Yuan Cixin said confidently, but then said: "Unless, he is just in the late stage of body purification, so this is when he is at his weakest."

Shi Linhuan said: "Then what should we do?"

"If you can get closer to him, it would be best if you can give him a pulse..." Having said that, Yuan Cixin shook his head and said, "There is no need for this, as you said, you have been observing secretly for so long Looking at him, haven't you found any clues that he is in possession of magic skills and that there are experts in magic skills around him?"

"But some things that happened around him proved the existence of masters of magic." Shi Linhuan frowned.

"Why do you want to get the answer?" Yuan Cixin smiled and said, "He has nothing to do with you, why bother to pursue these things?"

Shi Linhuan thought for a while, and said: "This society is developing too fast, and the Qimen will be revived in the near future... I need to know more masters of magic skills living in our era in advance, so as to better understand them, so as to contribute to the future." Be fully prepared to deal with it in the future, or in other words, have an extra insurance for yourself.”

"You're scared?"

"Yes."

Yuan Cixin was silent for a while, and said: "Are you sure, in such a great era different from history, after the revival and prosperity of Qimen, it will still be as sinister and cruel as in historical legends?"

"Just when Fengshui arrives, big rivers are rushing, mountains are majestic, and there are always hidden caves hidden in them." Shi Linhuan smiled and looked up at the snow-covered night sky.

Yuan Cixin seemed to have realized it, nodded and said: "Under the prosperous age of Kaiping, the Qimen should be revived."

Two masters of physiognomy and medical skills stand like this on the campus covered with goose feathers and heavy snow, looking up at the night sky, each sentence is difficult and profound like prophecy, ordinary people can understand it Feeling baffled, one would secretly be amazed and praise them for their profound literary accomplishments, or would say that the two of them are old, rotten and stubborn, or...crazy—they are all grown-ups, braving the heavy snow and holding an umbrella at night Going to the campus of No. [-] Middle School and talking nonsense, what kind of wolf with a tail is it?

Just when the two masters were immersed in their self-proclaimed masters, so they had to pretend to be mysterious when they spoke, they heard a loud shout from behind:

"Hey, what do you two do?"

Follow the sound and turn around to look around, but saw three young men wearing army green cotton coats with red armbands with the words "No. He glared and covered the two of them with the beam of the flashlight with a bad expression.

The leader spoke politely: "Who are you looking for?"

"Oh, don't look for anyone, just come to the school to have a look..." Shi Linhuan smiled.

"Just look at it? What are you looking at?"

"Look..." Shi Linhuan was at a loss for words for a moment.

Yuan Cixin frowned slightly, shook his head with disgust and disdain, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, we're leaving now..."

"Wait!" The security guard in the lead stood in their way, pointed a flashlight at Yuan Cixin's face, and said, "Both of you don't look like locals from your accent, this is a school, you're fine What can you do here? If you don’t tell me clearly, don’t even think about leaving!”

"We're just looking for someone." Yuan Cixin said coldly.

"Who are you looking for?"

Yuan Cixin looked at Shi Linhuan, regretting secretly in his heart—following Shi Linhuan to this ordinary high school in the county for no reason, just to see the one who couldn't compete with him and had already passed the optimal age of cultivation, No matter how high the talent and aptitude are, there is really no scarcity value for young people...

What are you drawing?

Now, I have encountered such a responsible school security guard again. If the explanation is not clear, the police may be alarmed.In case of being brought into the police station, although there will not be any serious consequences in the end, as a magician, who the hell would want to enter such an unlucky place that is extremely taboo by people in the quack?

Shi Linhuan also showed helplessness, so he could only say: "Look for Su Chunfeng, a student."

"Su Chunfeng."

"The kid is eating in the cafeteria."

When the other two security guards heard that they were looking for Su Chunfeng, they immediately spoke enthusiastically and pointed their flashlights in the direction of the cafeteria.

Shi Linhuan and Yuan Cixin looked at each other, and couldn't help being surprised—it seems that Su Chunfeng is not only rebellious and unruly, he dared to openly express his affection for girls in school, but he was also quite famous in school. The security guards knew him very well.

The leading security guard sneered and said: "Since you are here to find Su Chunfeng, please come with me, both of you, and I will take you to find him."

"No need, we met just now." Yuan Cixin refused coldly.

"That's right." Shi Linhuan also said, "We're leaving now, so we don't need to bother you."

The lead security guard raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Don't do this trick, who are you fooling? Bah! Since you entered the school, I found that something is wrong with you. You have been following Su Chunfeng furtively for a long time, but you didn't go to school at all. I greeted him before... and said, what on earth are you guys doing?"

The other two security guards immediately cheered up and stared at each other.

Yuan Cixin frowned and said nothing.

Shi Linhuan sighed softly, stepped forward, took out a ten-yuan bill from his pocket, and stuffed it silently into the hands of the lead security guard, while smiling apologetically as usual: "We are relatives of Su Chunfeng, and we are on a business trip today." When I arrived in Jinzhou County, I wanted to come and see him, but I didn't expect this child to fall in love early. He is now a senior high school student, and it is the most critical period. I am really worried about his academic problems... But as relatives, it is not easy to talk about him What, let's go back and tell his parents. Well, the three little brothers are doing their duty. It's not easy to patrol the school in such a cold day and it's snowing. I'll buy two packs of cigarettes for this little thing. Let's make allowances. Don't tell Chunfeng later, okay?"

The leading security guard nodded in satisfaction, and said: "I can understand, you two don't worry, although Su Chunfeng fell in love early, his academic performance is still very good."

"Really? That's great." Shi Linhuan said: "Thank you, thank you, and I hope you will take care of Chunfeng in the future."

"This is our responsibility."

"Good job……"

"Should be."

"Then, bye."

"See you."

……

The two masters of magic who were full of style just now and had the potential to point out the country, now walked towards the school gate with a disheartened face and infinite melancholy in their hearts.

Yuan Cixin said: "Old Shi, you really look like a charlatan."

"The King of Hades is easy to mess with, but little ghosts are hard to deal with." Shi Linhuan smiled indifferently, and said, "Ci Xin, I'm not like you who will always be a high-class person. As the saying goes, there are three religions and nine streams, each with its own way. I climbed up from the bottom of the society, and in terms of folk experience, I know more than people from a famous family like you, at least... when encountering such seemingly small but troublesome things, I know better than you To accommodate."

"Maybe." Yuan Cixin sighed softly.

Born in a famous family of magic arts, he has been bound by an invisible shackle since he was a child, so that he doesn't have enough contact with and understanding of the so-called rough folk society.Therefore, knowing early on that the Qimen Jianghu will surely revive and prosper in the next century, Yuan Cixin naturally yearns and wonders in his heart.

If not, Yuan Cixin would not have become friends with Shi Linhuan.

It's just that these two don't know, they haven't walked out of the campus gate yet, the leading security guard who just stared at them coldly, with a bad tone of voice and conscientiousness, and who used his power for personal gain to accept bribes, has run into the school cafeteria and found the Su Chunfeng, who was eating in the corner of the cafeteria hall, said mysteriously: "Chunfeng, there are two people who seem to be your distant relatives. They just left. They... saw you and..." At this point, he used a With a look that you understand, he glanced at Wang Haifei who was sitting next to Su Chunfeng, and then kindly reminded: "They also said that they will go back and tell your parents what they saw just now. You should be prepared."
