Chapter 223 The Academy
Because the severe winter has not completely retreated, these trees have not bloomed, but if you look closely, you can still tell that the most of them are peach trees.

Guo Yu looked at these slightly dry and bald peach trees, and couldn't help looking at Ye Hongyu, and said with a light smile: "I said, little apprentice, these peach trees shouldn't be from your peach mountain, right?"

Ye Hongyu, who had been in a bad mood when she saw these peach trees, turned completely dark when she heard this, she snorted very unhappily, and turned her face away.

Seeing this, Cheng Ying covered her mouth with a soft smile, and said angrily, "I haven't seen you for many years, how did I find out that you suddenly have so many bad tastes, and you like to get along with your apprentice?"

"Madam, you don't know this."

Guo Yu raised his eyebrows, stared at Cheng Ying and said solemnly: "My two apprentices are not reassuring people, and they are all stubborn. I have to worry about some things in the future."

Cheng Yingming's eyes turned slightly, and he glanced at Ye Hongyu with a livid face and Mo Shanshan, who was full of thoughts, showing a thoughtful expression, as if he probably understood a little.

The few people walked slowly, and quickly crossed the grassy slope, and entered the black and white building that was not tall but stretched for an unknown number of rooms.

The main buildings of these academies are hidden in the light mist of flowers and trees, but because the buildings themselves are extremely tall, the two sloping corridors are like the wings of a phoenix.

Therefore, there is no sense of Xiaojiabiyu. Instead, it has an indescribable clear and refreshing taste, which is extremely grand.

At this time, it was already sunset time, and the students in the academy were gathering together in twos and threes, laughing and laughing, and it seemed extremely noisy and lively.

And some students who want to go back to Chang'an City hurried to the courtyard meadow, so as not to miss the banquet of friends in the city. Most of the students packed their books and went to the depths of the academy along the quiet alley next to the bookstore. go.

Guo Yu nodded secretly, and couldn't help but praise: "Ying'er, this is indeed the largest and most imposing academy I have ever seen in my life, and it is countless times stronger than the one I saw in Song Dynasty."

Cheng Ying smiled slightly, and softly echoed with a bit of pride: "Yes, when I came to the academy with my teacher for the first time, I was also shocked by everything here."

Ye Hongyu, who was half a body behind Cheng Yingxiao, suddenly showed curiosity, interjected with a side eyebrow, "Mr. San, are you from the Song Dynasty?"

As she said that, she seemed to think of something again, and frowned and said, "But that's not right. I have never heard of any academies in the Song Dynasty."

Guo Yu was stunned, then exchanged glances with Cheng Ying, turned to look at Ye Hongyu, and said with a smile, "Little apprentice, we were indeed born in the Great Song Dynasty, but we are not from the Song Dynasty as you think. , Forget it, I’ll tell you the difference between Shanshan and you later.”

After finishing speaking, he and Cheng Ying walked towards the depths of the academy first.

"Hmph, it's not something shameful, it's mysterious." Ye Hongyu snorted dissatisfiedly, and followed.

The distribution of buildings in the academy does not show any regularity. There are several corridors in the east and west, scattered among the meadows at the foot of the mountain, but it gives people a natural feeling. There are countless lanes, quiet and peaceful, extending in all directions.

They walked a certain distance and came to a relatively secluded courtyard. Cheng Ying found a steward of the academy and ordered Ye Hongyu and Mo Shanshan to settle down. Then she took Guo Yu directly Turn into a secluded alley and continue walking deep.

After walking a few steps, a wooden sign appeared in front of him. Cheng Yingyu pointed lightly and introduced: "Further in, you will find the old library of the academy."

"Old library?" Guo Yu repeated in a low voice, and couldn't help but think of the library he built on Tongtian Peak.

"The reason why it is called the old book building is because the teacher thinks that the book is only used to record our thoughts."

Cheng Ying thought that Guo Yu didn't understand the meaning, so he explained softly: "As for thinking, once it jumps out of your mind and puts it on paper, it is no longer fresh, it is just an old thing, so any book is an old book."

"That makes sense." Guo Yu nodded.

In this way, the two quickly walked out of the alleyway, and suddenly a bright and open scene appeared in front of them, with a very fresh scenery. A large wetland forest appeared in front of them, covered with lush pine and green bamboos.

There is a stone path next to the wetland. The stone slabs are not polished, but the bumps on the surface are just enough to prevent slipping. It is paved from the study alley and goes around the wetland.

Then it stretches into the forest, and thousands of stones are densely built into a flat road, forming an extremely long stone path, and finally arrives in front of a three-story old wooden building among the green forests at the foot of the mountain.

This three-story wooden building has an ordinary appearance. It doesn't have any splendid decorations or cornices. It just simply rises against the mountain.

But those varnished woods should not be ordinary things. Looking at the traces left by years of wind and rain, I don't know how many years they have stood in the depths of this academy, but there is no sign of decay in any detail.

Guo Yu looked up at the horizontal plaque above the wooden building with the words "Jishulou" written on it, and couldn't help saying with emotion: "This is where the true heritage of this world lies!"

Cheng Ying smiled slightly, knowing that Guo Yu was interested in the books in it, and said with a smile: "Okay, I can read it slowly when I have time, and I will take you to meet my brothers and sisters from the same school first."

The road leading to the back mountain is just behind the quiet alley of the academy, and behind a fence not far from the old book building. Standing on the stone path in front of the building, you can clearly see the not so rugged part of the mountain at the foot of the mountain. Mountain road.

This section of the mountain path is a little special. After stepping on it, I immediately felt that my body seemed to be a little heavy. However, Guo Yu and his cultivation level are not low after all. This abnormality has no effect on their speed, and they soon came to the mountain path At the end, we entered the thick fog on the mountainside.

"This is the cloud formation." Cheng Ying explained while walking: "Before I became a talisman master, I have been taking care of this formation, but now it has been completely handed over to the eighth junior sister."

As she spoke, she waved her sleeves gently, and a breath of talisman came from her hands to disperse the fog around her, making the scenery on the mountainside clear.

Seeing this, Guo Yu's eyes were filled with admiration, and he said, "I knew before that you are very talented in formations, but now it seems that the practice of formations in this world is really suitable for you."

Cheng Ying replied with a smile: "Yes, the talisman cultivation in this world is indeed very interesting. After I entered the academy, I made it my main field of study, and now I have achieved a small amount of success."

"Hehe..." Guo Yu stared at Cheng Ying and smiled slightly proudly. Amulet masters are extremely rare in this world, and Cheng Ying's current achievements cannot be summed up in four simple words.
