Otherworld Qin

Chapter 44 49 Carlin's Drunkard

I hope everyone will support it, even if it is a simple book review! !
After the banquet, Helian Zan still lived with Shengxuan, and only then did he say something that was inconvenient to say at the banquet, "I met Ba Le in Xiaoguo more than ten years ago, and I was no better than him at that time. Two years younger than me, Xiaoguo was driven into the dry forest desert by the Lone Bamboo, Qiling, and Qingqiu coalition forces. I saw him in the ruins at that time. At that time, he was covered in blood and was dying. , and he was probably the only one left in their tribe. I carried him back to find someone to treat his wounds, and only then did he save his life. After that, he recognized me as his elder brother. For more than ten years, he has accompanied me all over the place. It can be said that half of the business of my Chilong Chamber of Commerce was bought back with his blood." Sheng Xuan could feel that kind of brotherhood, but the friendship was too heavy, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Helian sighed and continued, "After years of turmoil, Xiao Kingdom was finally completely driven into the desert. During that time, whenever Baler heard that there was a war there, he would take people around the grassland. Once he found out The survivors of the Xiao Kingdom in the war will try their best to rescue them. You may not know that the people of the Xiao Kingdom are bold and affectionate by nature. Bale's original intention is to save more people from the tribe, but these young people have become his subordinates. , has also become the core of the private army of the Chamber of Commerce, and has been with him for so many years, but a few days ago, most of these brothers were killed or injured, you know how you feel..."

He Lian Zan is also a strong man, but now he can't continue, Cheng Xuan patted him firmly on the shoulder, and said solemnly, "Brother, I know you are sad, but now is not the time to be sad, the enemy will impose blood debt on you!" Our heads, then we must pay with blood." At that moment, the light flashed in Shengxuan's eyes was so cold, and Helian Zan's pride rose sharply when he heard this, and he reached out to grab his hand, "Okay Brother is right, blood debts must be paid in blood."

It took a while for Helianzan to recover from his grief, and he couldn't help but let out a long breath, "I really drank too much, why did I remember to tell you this? I wanted to talk to you about registering for Carlin College tomorrow, but said these sad things."

"Enroll tomorrow? Why so soon?" Hearing Shengxuan's question, He Lianzan chuckled, "Brother, you don't know that Carlin College recruits a group of students every early spring. Of course, the conditions for admission are extremely strict, and they are strictly based on grades." The division, first of all, needless to say, those noble children, even a pig can enter the academy smoothly, but they can only learn some literature and etiquette. Only those with good aptitude will be taught fighting skills or magic, and then Those rich merchants and tycoons come down to the children of wealthy families, and finally are the children of ordinary people. Unless the children of ordinary people are extremely talented, it is difficult for them to enter the academy, but being selected by the academy is equivalent to finding a job in the army , so there will still be a large number of children sent to take the exam, and the children of those merchants must have decent qualifications, and they have to pay a lot of money to enter the school. It is early spring just in time for this year's admission selection. You go and sign up." Shengxuan was not interested in anything else, but he could tell Helian Zan that it was a large sum of money, but he didn't know how much it was.

"I don't know how much it will cost me to enroll?" He Lianzan smiled lightly, "Usually those with good aptitude will spend fifty thousand gold coins." "Fifty thousand?" Sheng Xuan's eyes almost fell to the ground, He couldn't help shouting angrily, "They might as well just grab it, I didn't expect that running a school would make so much money." He Lianzan laughed even more when he heard this, "Brother, you really have a brain, why didn't I think that running a school would be so profitable?" Buying or selling? But the [-] I just said is just for getting started, if you want your child to have a future, you need to choose a good teacher, and the cost of choosing a teacher is as high as [-] or even hundreds of thousands."

Hearing this, Cheng Xuan simply pouted, "Go to his Carlin Academy, I won't go, why should I give them money for nothing?" This sentence immediately amused He Lianzan, "I really didn't It can be seen that my brother who is not afraid of anything this day is actually a little money fan."

Sheng Xuan simply ignored him, stuck his head on the bed and then pulled the quilt over his head. Helian Zan saw that it was getting late and ignored him, then fell asleep on the bed. When he fell asleep, Sheng Xuan could Still sober, he began to carefully taste Helian Zan's words. It is not expensive at all to buy a chance to become a nobleman with [-] gold coins, but he has learned a lot about choosing a teacher. The higher the price, the higher the level is not necessarily the best. Well, on the contrary, it can only show that this teacher has a close relationship with the military and even the royal family, and the disciples he teaches may not be the best, but the future prospects are the most eye-catching.

Since I didn't want to seek any kind of errand here in Lonely Bamboo, why would I spend such unjust money?I’m just waiting to go and have a look tomorrow and say, it’s okay to spend some money if you really meet a teacher you’re satisfied with. If you don’t have a teacher you’re satisfied with, just find one without spending money. As long as you can enter the academy, are you afraid that you won’t learn anything?After thinking about everything, he fell asleep satisfied.

Early the next morning, before Helian Zan woke up, he had already gone out, and called a clerk outside to take him to the admissions office of Carlin College. These clerks saw him coming with his boss yesterday. I don't know the details, but I also know that the person who can make the boss like this must not be an ordinary relationship, so I hurriedly took him into a carriage and walked out of the city.

Because Carlin College is too huge, the location of the enrollment is directly selected in an open space outside the city. At this time, there is still an hour before the official start, but the open space is already crowded with people who came to sign up. Presumably these people must be I came to Carlin City from all over the world early, and I came here to wait here early this morning. I am afraid that the hotel that is the size of Carlin will make a lot of money just for this one.

Shengxuan casually turned around here, and saw a long row of tables neatly arranged, each table was closely guarded by guards to maintain order, and a lot of equipment had been placed behind, some of which came early The teacher has already taken out the crystal ball and placed it on the table, and there are probably thousands of people crowded around him, Cheng Xuan sneered, usually those who come early are probably the kind of people who have neither ability nor relationship, The reason why I came early was to take advantage of those big-name teachers before they arrived. I squinted my eyes and looked at the crowd carefully. The consultation fee of a few gold coins was put into the arms of those people with satisfaction. I am afraid that the income of this morning should not be underestimated.

It didn't take long for the crowd to boil over, "Have you heard? This year, the dean of Carlin College will personally accept apprentices. It seems that our children have hope." Immediately, someone beside him said angrily, "Bah, it's just your children. Do you still want to vote under the name of the dean? Don’t piss and take care of your own virtue. If you really can’t piss, there is the Blue Shield River next to you. Plunge into the river to wake up and speak.” The man was furious immediately and immediately started A fight broke out, and the guards maintaining order immediately drove the two out of the admissions venue.

Cheng Xuan smiled slightly, found a quiet place to sit down, looked at the bustling crowd as if watching a play, and then said to the guy who brought him, "Go back, tell your boss when you see him, I am in Just take a look here, if he has something to do, he can be busy, don't worry about me." The guy still dared to be negligent when he heard these few words, he hesitated and ran back to report the letter.

The crowd gathered more and more. Before nine o'clock, there were probably nearly 10 people gathered here. Almost every child was accompanied by a family, and even three generations of grandparents and grandchildren came together. This shows that these people attach great importance to Carlin College.

Finally, at nine o'clock sharp, the teachers who recruited students came one after another, and then quickly formed lines of different lengths in front of these people's tables, and those teachers began to test the children who signed up one by one. Then put them in to practice battle qi, if they are talented in magic, they put them away to practice magic. Those teachers who are not good will recommend them to others. Since they can’t get any benefits, they can recommend a good student to the teachers in the same college. Knowing that the reputation of the Carlin Academy cannot be supported by those nobles and young ladies, those who can really be used in the end may have to be the children of these commoners, but they are still unwilling to give up their efforts if they can't get any benefits.

When it was ten o'clock, a horn rang suddenly, and a group of guards guarded them, and a group of teachers came one after another. Those who had just recruited students immediately sent the forms in front of them respectfully. There was another commotion, obviously some people regretted their decision too early. These later teachers are the real strength of the college, while those just now were just ordinary teachers who came to select in advance.

Immediately, someone beat their chest and stomped their feet, and there were those who gloated and knew the inside story, and hurriedly took the child there, but were stopped outside. Of course, there were also those who had already said hello beforehand, calmly took out a voucher from their arms, Then he walked in triumphantly with the child.

Sheng Xuan shook his head repeatedly. He didn't expect the famous Carlin Academy to do such a thing. He couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. When he was about to leave, he suddenly heard the sound of a loud horn, and the crowd was immediately divided by a group of guards. And all the teachers also stopped their work and stood there respectfully, only to see a white-haired old man walking over quickly, and then randomly took several registration forms from the hands of those teachers, carefully Just as he was flipping through the form, a man in a Carlin Academy robe came over with a bottle of wine. The old man looked back at him and shook his head helplessly. Then continue the work at hand.

The appearance of this person immediately caught Sheng Xuan's attention, and he saw that this person staggered to an empty table in the front row and sat down, put his feet on the table, leaned back on the chair, raised his hand and gulped He took a sip of the wine, and then hiccupped loudly. It seems that he has been drunk since last night until now.

Almost no one took their children to his place, and the teachers also quietly gathered together to discuss in a low voice. Seeing this situation, the old man shouted loudly, "You continue to accept students. I hope you can receive satisfactory students this year. I, Karin, won glory and cultivated a group of pillars for the empire." After speaking, he left under the escort of the guards, and the whole venue returned to normal again, and each teacher continued to recruit the disciples he was satisfied with.

Cheng Xuan couldn't help being funny in his heart, presumably this is the dean accepting disciples himself, and it was just a cutscene, just thinking of this, he heard someone beside him whispering, "The one just now is the dean, don't you know?" "Why didn't you see him accepting students?" "Do you think he will really sit here and accept students? That's just a formality. In fact, the dean will come to the venue every year to see, but this year if he really accepts a student Disciple, but this has nothing to do with us, they are accepting the grandson of the prime minister."

At this time, some people began to bring their children to the drunkard's desk, but there were still very few of them compared to other teachers, and the drunkard just pointed at the child and asked vaguely, "Why do you want to enter Carlin College?" Under the instigation, he said timidly, "I want to be a general." Unexpectedly, when he heard this, the drunkard suddenly became angry, and slammed his feet on the table, "Bullshit, get out." Then he said contemptuously with his hands, "Next, why are you Want to enter Kalin?" The child obviously learned the lesson of the previous one and said loudly, "Because Kalin is the best academy, I can learn the best martial arts and magic here, and I am proud of being able to enter Kalin. The drunkard raised his hand, "Crap, nonsense, but it's still reasonable, let me see what you can do, let me see what you can do first." The child immediately prepared seriously, obviously wanting to show his last Good level, I saw a dark yellow vindictiveness gushing out, the drunkard squinted and looked, "Only level [-] vindictiveness? It's barely enough, go and show me that." The child saw the barbell he was pointing at. I'm afraid it weighs a thousand catties, and I was immediately discouraged. I didn't even have the courage to pass by. Who will come to you for money, really think of yourself as a famous teacher, let's go back and find a way." Said and took the child away, the alcoholic didn't care and continued to drink there.

At this time, a mother and daughter timidly passed by, and at a glance, they knew that the conditions in the house were not good, because the child was probably wearing the old clothes of the adults and turned them into small ones, they had been washed and turned pale, but they were very clean and tidy. And the mother's skirt was still patched, and when she came to the table, the girl gave a respectful salute, and then said a little nervously, "Teacher, I'm here to sign up." Seeing the sincere attitude of the mother and daughter, the alcoholic Quickly took off her feet and sat upright, but the question was still "little girl, why did you come to Karin to go to school?" Because my family is poor, I can't afford to go to school, and I heard people say that Karin doesn't charge for it, so,,,,, I really want to go to school." Shengxuan thought to himself, I'm afraid this child will not be able to pass after this is over, Unexpectedly, the drunkard immediately clapped his hands and applauded, "Okay, okay, I am very satisfied with this answer, so let me see what you can do."

The girl was immediately encouraged when she heard this, but she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when she heard that the teacher wanted to see her qualifications. "Teacher, I have never learned magic fighting qi, so I'm afraid I can't do anything." The drunkard didn't say anything when he heard it. , just nodded, and then said to the girl, "Go and try to lift that barbell." This time it was still referring to the previous one, and the girl blushed when she saw it, but walked over quietly, Then she pulled the barbell with all her strength, but how could a girl who was only seven or eight years old pull the barbell, but she still refused to give up until her face turned purple, and beads of sweat rolled down her face Come.

The drunkard nodded his hand, "Okay, come here." The girl was obviously disappointed when she heard this, her face, which was still purple just now, turned pale, and she walked back to the table with her head down, as if she had already shed tears, but the drunkard smiled." What's the matter? I didn't say you didn't do well? I accept you as a student." He picked up a form on the table and handed it to the girl.

This sudden happiness immediately made the girl's face turn pink, she couldn't believe her ears, her little hand tightly grasped her mother's arm, and the mother was also very nervous, but after all, an adult is still calmer than a little girl, whispering He said to his daughter, "You have passed, the teacher will give you the form and follow up." The girl reached out to take the form, and then respectfully saluted, at that moment Shengxuan clearly saw that the girl's hand was covered with blood bubbles, and the alcoholic looked at her Look at the girl, then look at the mother, the two of them were about to leave but were stopped by the drunkard, and then began to writhe on their bodies, but after a long time, they only took out a silver coin, obviously scratching their heads in embarrassment, and handed it to the mother "Take her to eat something, and come to Carlin College to find me at this time tomorrow."

No one paid attention to this scene, but Shengxuan noticed that when the alcoholic handed the mother a silver coin, his eyes were so sincere, without any kind of humble pity, but everything was [-]% sincere.

The drunkard immediately aroused his interest, and he strode forward, "Teacher, I want to sign up." At this time, the drunkard had put his feet on the table again, leaned back on the chair and was drinking, and when he heard him speak, he opened his eyes He only looked at him, and then still uttered the question vaguely, "Why did you come to Karin?" "I want to become stronger." "Do you think you are strong now?" The drunkard couldn't help but raise his head when he heard this answer. , Shengxuan smiled slightly and said seriously, "I don't think I'm strong enough, otherwise I wouldn't choose Karin, because I don't have money, even if I have money, I don't want to spend it like this."

"Oh?" The alcoholic sat up, then shook the bottle, which was obviously empty, but he still stubbornly raised the bottle and opened his mouth to control it vigorously, until the last drop of wine fell into his mouth. Throwing the wine bottle aside casually, he opened a pair of hazy drunk eyes and said, "Then let me see what you can do." Shengxuan first gathered his fighting spirit as he said, but he didn't use all his strength, just condensed a wave of The cyan grudge disappeared in a flash, and the drunkard said softly, "I just entered the sixth level, and it's passable." But this immediately aroused exclamations from the side, and Sheng Xuan threw another sand blowing technique, and the drunkard smiled, "Level [-]!" Magic, okay, now go and lift that barbell." The magic crowd who saw him was even more commotion, and gradually some teachers sneaked up to watch.

Ordinary people may only be afraid of a barbell that weighs a thousand catties, but Shengxuan walked over briskly, and then lifted it to his chest with a secret internal force. They were all packed with people, everyone was shocked when they saw this scene, Sheng Xuan dropped the barbell, walked back briskly and cupped his hands, "Teacher, this is already my limit." The drunkard looked at him coldly, and then He suddenly opened his eyes and stared at him fiercely, "Boy, you are crazy!" Sheng Xuan was not moved at all, but smiled slightly, "People are not frivolous, but I think the teacher was too young, so he should understand this. "The eyes of the two met at that moment, and then they couldn't separate for a long time, as if it was a secret contest, whoever looked away first meant failure, and finally the drunkard returned to his drunken appearance and raised his hand He took a form from the table and threw it to him, "If you want to be tortured, come to Karin to see me tomorrow." Sheng Xuan saluted the alcoholic without showing any weakness, "I will definitely go."

After bidding farewell to the drunkard, Shengxuan was about to return to the Red Dragon Chamber of Commerce, but was suddenly surrounded by a group of teachers, "Are you interested in coming to my place, young man?" "With your talent, why don't you come to my place?" Don't pay attention to that drunkard, he will only delay your future." In short, there is only one purpose, which is to let him vote under his sect, and you must know that a 12-year-old child can have a sixth-level fighting spirit, and at the same time use a second-level Magic, such a disciple receives his disciples, and with a little guidance, he will be among the best in the academy, and at the same time, it will make his face a lot better. As if you didn't see it.

Shengxuan shook his head all the way out of the encirclement quickly, leaving only those teachers who said, "Huh, I really think I'm a genius." He continued to walk towards his goal, and after watching him leave, some teachers still dared not scold him, "Damn it, I don't know how lucky this rotten drunk is to find such a good student."

As soon as he walked to the edge of the venue, he saw Helian Zan anxiously looking for people in the crowd, but the venue with 10,000+ people is so easy to find, and Shengxuan suddenly appeared in front of him, which startled him, and hurriedly asked He said, "How is it? Is there a teacher you are satisfied with? Do you want my brother to help you clear it?" He smiled slightly when he heard this, and then raised his hand to let Helian Zan look at the form in his hand.

When Helianzan picked up the form in his hand, his expression changed drastically, "What? You chose him?"
