Chapter 2 The Master of the Tower of Thousand Changes(1/3)
To the southwest of Hutian Island, Taoyuan District.
As the source of the rise of Hutian City, Hutian Island once developed bit by bit based on Taoyuan District. Taoyuan District is naturally the oldest among the eight urban areas of Hutian City today, but it is also the one with the least residents.
There are no government agencies and no companies here.
Here,
There is only peach forest covering an area of more than 30,000 acres.
And Penghu Academy located in this peach forest.
Therefore, citizens generally use the titles "Taoyuan", "Taolin College", "Taozi University" and other names to refer to Penghu College.
"Are these all Jin Lingtao?"
"It seems to be! I heard from senior seniors that Jin Lingtao has the ability to ward off evil spirits, and this peach forest is said to have more than 200,000 Jin Lingtao trees, which are magic circles set up by a principal two hundred years ago......"
The black SUV is galloping along the asphalt road in the peach forest.
In addition to the driver, Lotz and Betty Demville sat in the back row.
The student president of Douding said that he needed to stay on the scene and ended with the belated Demon-killing Bureau, so he entrusted Betty Demwell to lead the way for Luo Ci.
There was no way, who made the bus break by Betty's kick. Not only did the rear door fly away, but the engine was shocked so hard that it was not easy. In addition, there were other places on the island, and many bus lines were temporarily suspended, and taking other means of transportation became troublesome.
President Dou Ding also seemed to have accepted the dean's entrustment and took Luo Ci to see the dean.
certainly,
The commission is now also passed to Betty.
So, the two of them got on the SUV of the Demon-killing Bureau together.
Since the girl got on the bus, she sat upright in the seat. Her straight figure was like a sharp blade that was sophisticated that she felt the toughness and hardness. Speaking of which, it was very different from the feeling on the bus! The girl sitting on the bus should feel softer...
"Class Luo Ci? Are you listening?"
The girl leaned sideways, leaning toward the right, her alien pupils staring at Luo Ci's face.
“············Sorry, I’m a little distracted.”
Luo Ci touched his nose awkwardly.
A little embarrassed.
It is indeed very rude to be distracted when talking to people.
"Class Luo Ci, please be serious. Although our college is known for its open-mindedness, this does not mean that we can indulge ourselves."
The girl gave Luo Ci a lesson with a stern face, retracted her body, and returned to her straight sitting posture.
"Sorry, it's my fault."
Luo Ci apologized honestly.
"No, Luo Ci, you don't need to apologize to me. What kind of attitude towards life is your own business. I will not force others to be the same as me. As long as you can abide by the rules of the college, there will be no problem."
The girl said clearly, her steady elegant language without a slight accent.
It doesn't look like a joke at all.
"--I see."
Luo Ci blinked, probably knowing the personality of the girl in front of her.
He is a very serious and good boy!
Before he could understand the girl further, SUV stopped slowly.
The destination has arrived.
The administrative building of Penghu College is right in front of you.
“·········· It’s completely different from Chongxuan Hall!”
The building in front of me, full of modern urban atmosphere, is a bit unimaginable. This is actually a place to cultivate Qi Refiners and Magicians.
"The history of Penghu College is indeed three hundred years old. This is a new school building that was completed two years ago."
"New school building? So that's it...what is the old school building?"
"It was overturned. The new school building is now built on the foundation of the old school building. It is said that an accident occurred in the college two years ago. More than half of the buildings in the college were damaged. Fortunately, it was a holiday and all the students went home without causing any casualties.
However, the college was not so good that it was very difficult to maintain. In the end, the dean decided to overthrow all the old school buildings and rebuild them."
"Accident?"
Luo Ci's eyes moved to the right.
The administrative building in front of him, the canteen, teaching building, dormitory building, and training ground in the distance... Of course, it is impossible to look that far. He is looking at the college map erected on the right side of the gate of the administrative building.
"What kind of accident can damage more than half of the building in the academy?"
This big exaggerated academy.
It can't be destroyed casually.
"I don't know what happened. To be precise, except for the dean and some teachers, no one knows what happened at that time. So, Luo Ci, you don't have to bother to think about this. Of course, if you are really interested, you can investigate it slowly in the future."
"As for now, we have to see the dean first."
The automatic door opened as Betty approached.
The girl walked in front and led the way for Luo Ci. At the attention of the office staff she met along the way, she took the elevator to the ninth floor of the administrative building, which is the top floor. The dean's office is here. Except for the dean's office, the other rooms on this floor are not marked, so she doesn't know what their use is.
The brown and red door carved with human faces and sphinxes was closed, and a gold frame and black background sign with a book with [Dean's Office] was hung at the door.
The girl stretched out her hand and knocked on the door without hesitation.
"Dongdong!"
The knock on the door echoed in the empty corridor.
No response.
The girl frowned and stretched out her hand.
"Please come in!"
The sound came from above the head.
The girl raised her head, and Luo Ci also looked up in the voice. Then, a white dragon flapping her wings, probably the size of an ordinary cat, appeared in her field of vision, lowered her head, and looked down at Luo Ci and Betty.
“Eh—?”
The girl instinctively took two steps back, made a confused and surprised voice mixed with surprise, and asked tentatively: "Dean?"
The white dragon with white scales flapped its wings and ignored Betty. The blue dragon eyes widened and looked up and down with a sharp gaze. Then he lowered the flight altitude and stretched out his front paws to touch the door handle.
A colorful light of inspiration flashed away.
The closed door creaked open.
"The door has been opened, please come in!"
While talking, Bai Long pushed open the door and flew in with a familiar way.
"I've been disturbed."
Luo Ci took a step forward, crossed the girl who was still a little surprised, pushed the half-closed door open and walked in.
"Wow~~!"
As soon as he entered the door, Luo Ci made a sound of admiration from his throat. The feeling in the room was completely different from the empty and simple corridors.
This is like a graceful and luxurious room that came to the study of the European royal family before the invention of the steam engine.
The walls are covered with blue-white wallpaper with flowers and bird-wrapped patterns, chocolate walnut floors are covered with cream-colored velvet blankets, a light gray sofa and two light gray single sofas are placed in the welcome area at the door, and the marble coffee table is calm and rustic.
However, the most eye-catching thing is the embedded bookshelf on the left and right sides of the wall, which has an amazing number of books on it, and it is often carefully organized. Different books are released in categories, such as sheepskin scrolls, line-coated ancient books, and even a pile of stone slabs and mud blocks are piled in the bottom grid.
And in the deepest part of the room.
In front of the coated glass window was a large mahogany desk, with neatly tidy documents piled up on the table, as well as a bunch of mixed but not chaotic items such as desk lamps and pen holders. Behind the table was a petite old woman.
"Dean!"
Unlike the previous puzzled tone, this time the girl lowered her head slightly to greet the old woman sitting behind the table.
The old woman's shoulder-length short gray hair was tidy. Although she was old, her demeanor was still full of terrifying courage. She wore a milky women's suit, which was a perfect combination, giving people a feeling of energy.
"Student Betty, thank you for leading the way for Luo Ci."
That was the exact same sound as the White Dragon.
“This is what I should have done.”
Betty said without changing her face, standing as standard as a soldier.
The old woman smiled warmly, and then looked at Luo Ci who was standing next to the girl.
"Class Luo Ci, for the first time I met, I am the dean of this college, Alikhia François, welcome you to study in our college."
"Hello, President Francois, it is my honor to be able to know the famous [Qianchang]." Luo Ci lowered his head to greet him.
