Back to the Future Sword of Sichen

The person in charge of Wei Mingye and Sonnet's overseas assignment was Dean, the person in charge of the astrological station. However, Dean did not talk to them about the content of the mission one day later. Her meaning was as clear as Roland's - — Let the two of them play here for a few more days before completing the mission; this is just to make a good impression on the Foundation.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, the two returned to the guest area. Wei Mingye was lying on the bed staring at the ceiling in a daze. She had something to do but nothing to do. She turned over and looked at the sonnet. She was holding a book and reading it carefully without blinking. , Wei Mingye sincerely sighed - he was indeed the top student in the first line of defense school at that time, and every thick book placed next to him could kill someone.

Wei Mingye turned over again and decided to find something to do. There were three college schedules on the bedside table. She took one and looked at it, stuffed the schedule into her pocket, and went out.

It is now 8:30 in the morning. The little first-year students in black robes are running around in the corridor holding things for class, like black bats. Wei Mingye glanced at the schedule, feeling a little envious. From elementary school until I graduated from high school, I basically got up at six o'clock. After graduating from college, it was gratifying to go to work at eight-thirty every day.

"Be careful." Wei Mingye grabbed a child who almost bumped into him. She looked familiar. She was the first little girl to go on stage for the class separation ceremony: West Morin.

"Sorry... I'll pay attention." Mo Lin's face immediately turned red. She was put down by Wei Mingye, her leather shoes clicked on the stone floor, and she disappeared around the corner after a while.

"Nice to meet you, Miss W." Molik, the general manager of the inspection department, suddenly appeared behind Wei Mingye, holding several textbooks for class.

"Hello, Mr. Molik." Wei Mingye said, "Are you going to class?"

Molik curled his lips, snorted, and said, "I think my name is on the schedule Dean gave you." After saying that, he strode away. Wei Mingye felt that he seemed to be interested in him. The impression was not very good - as if the two of them had a grudge, but in fact they had only met for two days.

Wei Mingye took out her schedule and decided to take a look at the "Identification of Mysterious Creatures" course.

Dean gave the two of them something called "observation tickets". With this ticket, you can observe all courses in the college. Wei Mingye walked to the west of the fish-shaped island. She passed by a square, and the four flags on the square rustled in the morning breeze.

The flag of the Alchemy Department has a purple base with a golden philosopher's stone printed on it; the flag of the Alchemy Department has a green base with a pattern of several medicine bottles; the flag of the Inspection Department has a red base with a golden scale printed on it.

In addition, there is a bronze bell in the center of the square. It takes ten adults to hold hands to surround it. When the time reaches nine o'clock, the bronze bell emits a long chime that echoes throughout the entire college.

As if cast by magic, almost no one could be seen in the entire college. Occasionally, a few students would run by - they were late, Wei Mingye thought to himself.

Another gust of wind blew by, and there was a rustling sound from the bushes nearby. This was not caused by the wind. Several Kabangru that looked like briquettes poked their heads out of the bushes, and their egg-sized eyes looked at Wei curiously. Mingye, they are not afraid of people, and they do not show strong aggression - Wei Mingye guessed that these are Kabangru that are native to the island, and they are no longer afraid of people after long-term contact with them.

Wei Mingye walked all the way west on the stone road. The lake was as smooth as a mirror. Several fishing boats were parked in the lake. The sailors were wearing rough work clothes (not very comfortable but durable), and their faces and arms were tanned. They are throwing a fishing net into the lake; it is said that there is a huge cave at the bottom of the lake that leads to nowhere, and many fish come to the lake through the cave.

There are several shops on both sides of the stone road, including a snack shop, a mysterious toy shop, a tailor shop and a magic wand shop. The owner of the snack shop is a fat man who looks amiable. "Barlow's Snack Shop" is named after him. The door of the mysterious toy shop is closed, with several stuffed bears in the window. The tailor shop is also closed. There was a sign hanging at the door of the store that read: Out for purchase; the owner of the magic stick store was a short woman, her height just reached Wei Mingye's knees, and to be more exaggerated, she looked like a standing winter melon. She had With a hooked nose and messy hair like a chicken coop, she was arranging a shelf with flower pots at the entrance of the store.

The short woman named Wenforth has been running this magic staff shop for five years. She raised her head, her face was covered with wrinkles, and her eyes that were originally as shiny as emeralds were now almost dull, "Hello ." She said, "Can you do me a favor?"

Wei Mingye stopped. Wenforth's eyes were as sharp as the eyes of an eagle, but she tried her best to look approachable. She tapped the flowerpot next to her with fingers like dead branches. Wenforth said, "Can you help me put this flowerpot Put it on top?"

"Of course." Wei Mingye said. She placed the flowerpot on the highest shelf. Wenforth could use mystical magic to move the flowerpot to it. She didn't know why she didn't do this.

"Thank you." Wen Fusi smiled, and the wrinkles on her face became elongated as her muscles stretched. She looked at Wei Mingye from top to bottom and said, "Are you the new teacher?"

Wei Mingye shook his head, "I am an expatriate from the college."

"Okay." Wenforth scratched his chicken coop-like hair, "If you have time, you can come and sit in my shop." She closed the door of the shop, and a ball of fire was reflected in the window next to it, and a fire came out of the chimney. Wisps of green smoke.

At the end of the stone road is a stone bridge. There are statues placed every one meter on the handrails of the stone bridge. After being exposed to wind, sun and rain, the outlines of these statues have long been blurred, and the individual figures can barely be seen. The lake flows under the bridge, and some mysterious aquatic creatures cling to the wet black rock walls.

After crossing the stone bridge, the stone road appeared in front of us again. There were no buildings on both sides of the stone road. Instead, there were grasslands dancing in the wind and a forest of tall and straight pine trees. The air was filled with the fragrance of moist soil and the faint smell of moss. taste.

Kabangru that look like briquettes can be seen everywhere in the woods. They are not afraid of people and will never attack people. Because their living environment is limited, they will not grow very big. The largest one Wei Mingye saw was only The size of a small dog.

There is a clearing in the woods, and a wooden house is built on the left side of the clearing. Dozens of first-year students are sitting on wooden pile-shaped stools, looking at a man curiously, or to be precise, looking at the Capon in his hand. Crewe.

"The most common type of Kabangru is the black Kabunkru, but there are also mutated Kabangkru. The one I have in my hand is the albino Kabangkru."

The man wore a tan leather coat stained with sawdust and pine leaves. He had a thick beard hanging on his face like a bird's nest, and his brown hair was like a lion's mane, hanging down to his waist.

He should be about 1.9 meters tall, with hands as big as plates and a body as broad as a small black bear. His voice is as thick as thunder but does not feel as oppressive as his height.

The Kabangru in his hand was as white as a piece of exquisite white jade, and it was sleeping in his hand.

"You have to remember." The man said in a serious tone, "Don't underestimate Kabangru. When they become adults, they are strong enough to tear a brown bear apart! Young Kabangru are also somewhat aggressive - they will spray out of their mouths. Stones, dust...or bite the attacker with its huge mouth that takes up almost half of its body."

"Mr. Brut!" One student raised his hand and said, "None of the Kabunkru in this forest will attack anyone!"

"Of course." Brute said, "This is a new knowledge point. Next we have to talk about the impact of the environment on Kabanglu..."

Wei Mingye was leaning under a tree. She didn't want to disturb their class. Of course Brut noticed her. He winked at Wei Mingye, who nodded in response.

A class lasted thirty minutes. As Brut's loud voice sounded, he shouted: "get out of class is over!" The students left here noisily.

"Hello." Brut came over, the dead branches and hay under his feet crackling under his feet, "I think you are the new teacher?"

"No, I am an expatriate from the foundation." Wei Mingye said.

Brute raised his thick eyebrows, "Oh, I think I know who you are, W, the dragon slayer!"

Wei Mingye nodded, and Brut rubbed his hands happily. He said, "Would you like to come to my cabin for a while? I think you will like pine needle tea."

Wei Mingye followed Brut into his cabin. It was said to be a cabin, but the layout of the house was like a tent. A thick pillar stood in the center of the house. There was a gray bearskin rug at the door, and the room was warm. Huhu, the orange flame in the fireplace danced happily, and the whole room was also orange.

Wei Mingye was sitting on a wooden armchair. The armchair was handmade and had some subtle carving marks. Brut was holding a pot of tea in front of a cabinet. His broad palm made the teapot look small and exquisite. He put some pine needles and other ingredients in the teapot. The kettle on the stove next to him gurgled, and Brut poured the boiled water into the teapot.

"The pine needle tea will take five minutes to drink. That's when it tastes most delicious." Brute placed the teapot on the table in front of Wei Mingye.

"It seems you know how to make tea." Wei Mingye said.

Brute smiled modestly and said, "I only know how to make pine needle tea, but I know much more about the mysterious forest of Afordros than others."

"Where is the forest you are referring to?" Wei Mingye asked.

Brut stood up and took down a map from the wall and placed it on the table. It was a bird's-eye view of Afordros Academy. It was enchanted with a mysterious spell - it could zoom in and out, and the picture on the map was dynamic. , updated in real time - they saw several late students hurriedly running towards the square.

"It's really amazing." Wei Mingye said.

Brute hung the map back on the wall and said, "It's just a wonderful mystery. To be honest, this map is not subtle. Some places cannot be shown on the map."

Wei Mingye is not a person who is good at talking. She is a little bit shy, but fortunately Brut is a talkative - if he was a shy person, they might not be able to say a few words.

He was talking excitedly about some interesting anecdotes in the mysterious forest. Centered on Afordros, the forests within a thousand kilometers are all Afordros Forest - this kind of forest is full of mysterious power, and there are mysterious creatures living in it. There are even rare mysterious creatures; Afordros is not the owner of the forest, and the academy only takes the forest under its control in order to maintain the environment of the mysterious forest.

"There have been a lot fewer poachers recently." Brut looked very happy, his thick beard trembling. "This is also thanks to my friends in the forest. I can't manage such a large forest by myself!"

Five minutes later, Brut raised the teapot, green tea slowly flowed into the teacup, and a rich fragrance of the forest filled his nose.

Wei Mingye took a sip and said, "The tea is delicious, mellow and soft, with a long fragrance and a long aftertaste. It is a good cup of tea."

"I knew it!" Brut almost jumped up with joy, "I knew there would be people who would appreciate this kind of tea. You know we rarely drink tea here. They would only say, 'It tastes great. It's great.'" '!"

At this moment, the alarm clock on the cabinet nearby made a shrill sound. The alarm clock had no time digits and only one hour hand. The hour hand was now pointing at a string of English words: It's time for engraving class.

Brute slapped the alarm clock, and the alarm immediately went silent. He pulled out a large box from the cabinet, which contained carving tools.

Wei Mingye said doubtfully: "Do mystics take such classes?"

"This is called cultivating sentiment, that's what Roland said." Brut said, moving the box to the open space, then he came to the back of the wooden house and put a pile of wooden bars next to the box.

Before the students could be seen, the sounds of their laughter and slapstick had already reached Wei Mingye’s ears. Sculpture classes were no longer taught in the second grade. Students can choose their own courses in the second grade. Although the first grade The courses are interesting, but when they reach second grade they can no longer take first-year courses.

"I'm back." Wei Mingye said, "It was a pleasure chatting with you."

"Welcome to come again next time!" Brut's eyes were as small as black pearls. He smiled so much that he couldn't even see his eyes when he squinted them. He watched Wei Mingye leave and watched the first-grade little beans one after another. arrival.

Wei Mingye walked to the stone bridge. From here, she could see the astrological station on another island. The astrological station was cylindrical in shape. The most obvious feature was the roof that looked like an astronomical telescope. She suddenly decided to go to the astrological station on a whim. have a look.

There are five teleportation circles on the left side of the square, which can be teleported to the Astrology Station, the Punishment Department (the square building), the Alchemy Department, the Alchemy Department, and the Arena.

Wei Mingye was standing in one of the teleportation arrays when she suddenly felt the world spinning and her whole body felt light. When she came to her senses, she was already standing on the island where the astrological station was located.

This island is called Stone Island. There is not a single tree on the island, and there are white rocks everywhere. Weeds are struggling to survive in the cracks of the rocks. Wei Mingye squints - the sunlight shines on those rocks very dazzlingly. Although the astrology station It is also white, but made of special materials, so it does not look too dazzling. In addition, there are five small buildings surrounding the astrological station. They are also cylindrical in shape, and five glass bridges connect them to the astrological station.

The astrological station has an unpretentious appearance, as if it is made of huge white rocks. Once inside, it feels like you have entered another place.

The ceiling above reflects a starry sky, as if it has really come to night. Every once in a while, a specific constellation will appear in the starry sky. It is Pisces now, and it may be Leo after a while.

There are four stone pillars made of white marble on both sides of the hall. Colorful silks like the Milky Way are wrapped around the stone pillars and flow down like water. Wei Mingye touches such a beautiful thing with his own hands. It seems to be more delicate and soft than yarn. Lighter than silk.

This building is full of decorative elements of the starry sky, the sun, the moon and the eight planets; the first and second grade astrology students wear pure black robes, the third grade students have starry sky decorations on their robes, and the fourth grade students wear eight planets. One of the planets is used as decoration; the teacher's robe is printed with the sun and moon.

Wei Mingye stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window. Inside the floor-to-ceiling window was a trapezoidal classroom. The teacher was writing formulas on the blackboard. The dense letters and numbers made Wei Mingye dizzy - not to mention those first-grade bean bags. They had already Half of them started snoring.

"Oh, it's you! Miss W!"

Matilda came over with a pile of papers in her hands. She seemed to be in a good mood and her tone was very cheerful.

"Hello, Matilda." Wei Mingye said, "Why are you here?"

Matilda looked proud and raised her chin slightly, "The great Matilda is going to study here for a while. What about you? W?"

Wei Mingye had already guessed what would happen next. She smiled and said, "Sonnet and I came to Afordros to perform a mission as expatriates."

As soon as she heard the sonnet here, Matilda blushed immediately. It was indeed a fifteen-line poem. Wei Mingye grimaced to prevent himself from laughing.

"Where are the ten...sonnets now?" Matilda said urgently, breathing heavily, her chest rising and falling.

"Well...she may be reading in the reception area now..." Wei Mingye glanced at the wall clock hanging in the corridor, "Maybe she went to eat, and it's already dinner time."

Matilda thought for a while and said, "Let's go eat together. I happen to be hungry."

Of course Wei Mingye knew what Matilda was thinking, so he followed her out of the astrology department. They teleported to the square, with the orange back reflected in his eyes.

Sonnet didn't know when she left the reception area. She was sitting on a bench, with a white Kabangru lying in one hand. The Kabangru was as soft as a glutinous rice cake. In the palm of his hand, Sonnet looked at it with curiosity, and then stretched out a finger to scratch its head. The white Kabunkru made a small sound and rubbed his head against Sonnet's finger.

Wei Mingye: So cute (referring to the white carbonara)

Matilda: So lovely (referring to the sonnet)

The two of them walked up to Sonnet, who held Cabunkru and put it back into the grass, "Matilda, are you also here to perform a mission?"

"Of course not!" Matilda blushed even more when she saw the sonnet, as if on fire, "I...I came here to study!"

"Okay," said Sonnet, "it's dinner time now, let's go eat together."

Wei Mingye scratched his long hair and said, "Oh... I seem to have left something in the astrology department. You go first, I will come later."

Wei Mingye gave Matilda a meaningful look, and then walked away. Now only Matilda and Sonnet were left. As soon as Wei Mingye left, Matilda seemed even more flustered. .

"Matilda?" Sonnet looked at her doubtfully, "Aren't you going?"

"Oh! Let's go." Matilda came back to her senses and followed the sonnet to the restaurant.
