The steam-belching train advanced along the tracks on the plains, passed through several checkpoints, and stopped once at the Morrowind border platform. Passengers who waited from day to night quickly filled the other half of the empty carriages.
The reason why this train can travel unhindered in the Morrowind area is of course not only because of the agreement, but also because both parties need to send people to Yanjing.
The shaking carriage made it difficult to fall asleep, and leaving home for the first time was even more exciting. There were no soft sleepers in the train but only soft seats. After a friendly dinner, the four girls who met for the first time quickly became closer and chatted for a long time.
There was no intention of stopping, as if they had known each other for a long time and had endless topics to talk about.
However, most of their topics revolved around the Royal Academy of Yanjing. Even Li Ying, who was not interested in studying, was yearning for this highest institution in the capital. For them, the Royal Academy was no less than the fairy tale.
In this world, countless literati, heroes, gods and couples have left their footprints there for thousands of years.
The Royal Academy has given birth to countless legends, and the Royal Academy is a legend.
Now that we are talking about the academy, we will naturally talk about dreamy words like ideal. Li Ying made a gesture of holding Xizi's heart, and said with a look of fascination: "My ideal is to meet the person I love, he will be a hero, and lead the world."
He led me through countless thrilling adventures, and finally we achieved enlightenment, returned to the countryside, and lived in a palace for two nights..."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Kui Nianruo nodded repeatedly after hearing this, his eyes gradually blurred, and he seemed to have been immersed in the fantasy described by Li Ying, making Lin Xue Qianyuya and the two next to him couldn't help but raise their eyebrows - they
I thought that only Li Ying was the eldest lady who was ignorant of the world, but I didn't expect that the shy and ignorant Kui Nianruo was also a hidden love brain.
"Xiaoying, eat some peanuts."
"Nianwei, are you thirsty? Come and drink some water."
Before the two of them were about to drool, Lin Xue and Qian Yuya interrupted their fantasy at the right time. Kui Nianruo took a sip of water and seemed to realize that he had just made a mistake. His face turned red and he quickly changed the topic: "My ideal is to learn how to
The family-inherited Wolf Eagle Fist.”
Lin Xue shook her head slightly: "This is not an ideal. An ideal is something that you really want to achieve, but it is difficult to achieve... Is learning Wolf Eagle Fist what you want to achieve most?"
"yes!"
"What if your father no longer forces you to learn Wolf Eagle Fist?" In the previous chat, Lin Xue knew that Kui Nianruo had been blamed by his father for not being able to learn Wolf Eagle Fist, so he asked along this line of thinking: "
If the Royal Academy releases a new version of Wolf Eagle Fist tomorrow, your family's Wolf Eagle Fist is no longer suitable for this era, and your father will definitely not force you to continue learning... Then what is the thing you want to do most by then?
?”
Kui Nianruo covered his head and frowned. It took him a while to digest Lin Xue's hypothesis. He shook his braid and said, "Then... then... I probably want to... taste delicious food everywhere?"
"Being a gourmet?" The three girls blinked and looked at Kui Nianruo in surprise.
"I'm not a gourmet, no." Kui Nianruo blushed and shook his head: "I just often heard my dad say that the domestic chickens in Tianji District are fresh and delicious, and the barbecue and sauces in Youyun District will never be forgotten again.
, the spicy hot pot in the southwest cannot be replicated in Xingke County... I just want to see if the food there is really so delicious."
Qian Yuya said: "Your father has been to many places."
"Yes, he said that his cooking skills were honed by stealing from others when he was traveling." Kui Nianruo smiled: "Well, if this can be considered ideal... I actually want to learn to cook. I have been since I was a child.
I want to learn cooking from my father, but he would rather me practice fighting skills than enter the kitchen..."
Lin Xue looked at Kui Nianruo's eyes that lit up when he talked about her father, and suddenly felt a strange touch in her heart. Although she had only heard about Kui Zhao, she also knew that he was a ruthless executioner with many counter-insurgents under his command.
The resentful soul.
However, in the eyes of his daughter, Kui Zhao was just a strict old father who was proficient in cooking, and he was even a good father. Kui Nianruo had lost her mother since she was a child, and it was Kui Zhao who brought her up with poop and urine.
It stands to reason that in this kind of family atmosphere, Kui Nianruo should become very rebellious. However, perhaps Kuizhao's cooking was so delicious that he wiped out Kui Nianruo's rebellious phase.
The stern old father, the deputy director of the Statistics Department who is full of evil...
Human nature is complex, everyone wears a mask, and everyone lives in this world as a double-faced person.
So, father, what is your death...
"What about Sister Xue?" Kui Nianruo held Lin Xue's arm: "Sister Xue, what is your ideal?"
"I want to study hard until I have enough ability to fulfill my father's ideal."
"Then if your father doesn't ask you -"
"Nianruo, I'm different from you." Lin Xue said with a smile: "You don't want to learn Wolf Eagle Fist, but I recognize my father's ideals, and I voluntarily continue to move forward along his path. And..."
"Not only my father, but also my uncle and my family have made countless efforts for this ideal. I cannot live up to the expectations of my ancestors. If I don't persist, wouldn't I admit that our ideal is wrong?"
It seems that Sister Xue's family business is in trouble... Kui Nian nodded weakly and ignorantly, and then everyone looked at the last person who had not yet spoken.
"I know!" Li Ying raised her hand and said, "Xiao Yu's dream is to become a medical officer who saves people in distress!"
Qian Yuya glanced at the wilderness under the night outside the window, and after a while she said: "That was my dream."
"It used to be?" Li Ying was stunned: "When did it change? Why didn't I know?"
"Just this afternoon."
"This afternoon?" Kui Nianruo asked curiously: "Isn't that the time when we are catching the train?"
"Yes." Qian Yuya nodded: "I had a discussion with my brother at that time, and his remarks changed my mind."
Lin Xue glanced at Qian Yuya and asked casually: "What did your brother say?"
"My brother believes that the reason why the world has become bad is firstly the problem of productivity, where resources are not enough to supply everyone; secondly, the problem of the distribution system. The rich and nobles occupy too many resources, so the poor cannot survive."
"As a medical officer, there is no way to solve these two problems."
Qian Yuya looked at the medical skills in her hands and sighed softly: "Studying medicine can't save Huiyao."
This topic was a bit heavy, and Kui Nianruo immediately shut up. Li Ying asked: "Xiaoyu, you don't want to study as a medical officer? What major do you plan to study?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll think about it again."
Lin Xue asked: "You seem to be greatly influenced by your brother... How is your relationship with your brother?"
Qian Yuya was stunned for a moment, looked out the window, and remained silent for a moment before replying: "It's not that good."
"Isn't it bad?" Li Ying tilted her head and asked: "The last time I saw your brother, he concealed his identity and asked me about you at school... But I actually recognized him a long time ago! Just for the sake of it.
He's quite handsome, so let's give him some air."
"He...has changed a lot recently." Qian Yuya said: "In the past few years, we wouldn't speak a word for a day."
Kui Nianruo was shocked: "Don't talk even while eating?"
"We haven't eaten together in the past few years. He comes back very late. After dinner, I put his food in his bedroom."
The way the brothers and sisters of the Qian family get along is really strange. Others looked at each other in confusion. Li Ying couldn't help but ask: "Why is this happening? Isn't this so strange? The whole family doesn't eat together?"
"Maybe he's angry?"
"Angry? What is your brother angry about?"
At this time, Qian Yuya suddenly fell silent, and her expression became a little awkward. After a while, she said, "I lost my temper with him when I was a child."
"About when I was twelve years old, after my mother died, my father also died of illness due to worry. One night, I didn't know why, and I was in a bad mood. He came over and called me to eat, and I made a fuss and shouted
I wanted my parents to eat with me, but I didn’t want to eat with him... He didn’t say anything, he put half of the food in front of me, and we ate separately.”
"Since then, we have been eating separately."
Perhaps he had wanted to find someone to talk to for a long time, or perhaps he was too far away from the other person involved. Qian Yuya revealed all the things that were deep in his heart and said calmly: "He must be angry."
Li Ying was immediately filled with indignation: "Are you angry because of something like this? Your brother is too concerned about face, isn't he? It's useless for me to think he's quite handsome!"
"Yes, yes!" Kui Nianruo echoed: "And how could you be angry for so long? How many years, my God, I pulled my dad's pigtails when I was 8 years old, and he stopped hitting me on the third day!
"
When the two of them denounced Qian Yuya's brother, Lin Xue thought for a moment and said, "Actually, is it possible that your brother thought that you really didn't want to eat with him, so he took the initiative to separate from you?"
The denunciation stopped suddenly, and everyone looked at Qian Yuya.
Qian Yuya was stunned for a moment, looking a little confused: "It seems... it's possible..."
Lin Xue asked: "You just said that he has changed a lot. What kind of change is that?"
Qian Yuya thought for a while: "One night half a month ago, it was still raining. He came home soaked and suddenly said he wanted to have dinner with me. From that day on, he seemed to be a different person.
of."
Lin Xue was slightly startled.
Half a month ago, on a rainy night... it was the night my father died.
That is, after that night, everything changed, whether it was her Lin family or Qian Yuliu. She could feel that there was a lot of fog behind this incident, but she was not able to clear it away. Even going to Yanjing to study was...
Drawing on the legacy of my father.
Lin Xue, who was worried, stopped asking any more questions, while Qian Yuya also fell into thinking.
Could it be that the brother is not actually angry, but that he has been taking care of his own temper?
Could it be that I am actually the one who has been causing trouble?
Thinking of this, Qian Yuya suddenly felt her cheeks burning and her head was a little dizzy. She turned her head and bit her hand hard, calming down instantly.
It doesn't matter, there is still room for remedy, not to mention... yes, my calamity!
Qian Yuya touched the back of her neck lightly, focusing her mental power on the back of her neck, and vaguely felt a progress bar that was about to be full.
In fact, her tribulation is not difficult to complete. She only needs to eat at the same table with her brother Qian Yuliu. According to the number of meals and the progress bar in the past half month, if she wants to overcome the tribulation, she needs to eat with her brother 17 times in total.
.
As for why it was 17 times, it was probably because... when she was 12 years old, her brother was 17 years old.
Now, I owe you one more time.
Qian Yuya put down her hands and looked at the wilderness of the night sky outside, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised into a smile.
The elder brother promised that he would come to Yanjing soon.
We can meet again soon and start over in Yanjing.
Next time, when we have dinner together, I must apologize to him.
To bring my calamity to a perfect end.
…
…
Le Yu lowered his head and saw a sword tip glowing with purple-red light piercing out of his chest.
He wanted to struggle, but the sword that penetrated his body was like an iron lock, locking his body tightly and he could not move at all.
He clearly felt that something in his body was flowing into the sword continuously, and he became weaker and weaker, and his body became heavier and heavier, as if the ice blood was about to fail.
"Yin...yin...yin..."
"If you got on that train, if you were killed by Kuizhao, if you refused this mission...but there are no ifs in the world, so there is destiny."
Yin Yinyin stood behind Le Yu. He watched the dark green blood from the sword slowly flow into his body, and said calmly: "Although we couldn't say goodbye properly, at least, before you die, I will say goodbye to you."
