In Chengguo Eton College, the apprentices' classes are going on as usual. It seems peaceful, but no one knows what's going on underneath. But on the third floor of the central protrusion of the school building, a carnival started in the purser's room.
All cabinets and drawers were opened and pulled apart, and all items were spread out on the table. Anything that couldn't be placed on the table was placed on the floor.
Of course, the most important thing for everyone is the college's small treasury. In order to show fairness and integrity, Lin did not conceal the location of the small treasury where the college's funds were stored, and the accounts were all made public. The key to unlocking the magic protection is the same key that opens the door to the purser's room. This was also the reason why Guybrash Tripwood was forced to hand it over.
With everything going well, everyone easily opened the academy's small vault and took out boxes after boxes of Kir gold coins, as well as many rare magic materials. Because of the academy's tuition fees, Lin is based on the admission of one person, which can serve two to three apprentices, plus the sponsorship of some nobles and businessmen. Despite the expenses, there is plenty of surplus.
Those magic materials were requested by the instructors based on their needs in the course. As the property of the college, it is also stored in the small vault.
The person who made the most requests of this kind was the miscellaneous studies of the great magician Juan Javier. Some materials are just for the apprentices to recognize as familiar, while others are actually used, but they are not consumables and can be reused.
Now, both the money and the magic materials were spread out in front of everyone, just like a spoils-sharing conference. But the people who didn't give up were still looking around. Even dogs know how to hide bones. As a magician, how could he not have undisclosed secrets?
"Hey, everyone, look what I found in this box." Someone dug out a locked box from the corner. The lawyers were not polite and just violently cracked it. When they opened the box and took a look, everyone made a sound of admiration.
It was a box full of orange fruit Eton College commemorative pocket watches. The unique appearance contained technology that others could not imagine. It's obviously not a magic material, but it can maintain its shiny appearance for a long time. This is an unexpected discovery among holders and a feature that is widely circulated.
It is precisely because of this feature that no one who also makes pocket watches can make similar works. This has also become an important basis for everyone to distinguish between college commemorative pocket watches and imitations.
On the market, the college commemorative pocket watch has been hyped to an unimaginable height, but no owner wants to sell it. So in this place, everyone was overjoyed to see a full box. At the same time, no one was being polite. Everyone just took one piece each and took it first.
By the way, a bottle of very expensive wine was opened in the cabinet, and each of them had a glass to celebrate today's stage victory.
“To a greater future, here’s to you all.”
"Here's to you all."
As the saying goes, if you are not drunk, everyone will get drunk. In this situation, maybe not much wine had been consumed, but everyone was still a bit drunk. Looking at the boxes of Kiel with misty eyes, someone asked: "What should I do with the money? Divide it equally?"
"No! No! No!" Shurion stopped him and said, "To operate the college, it still needs some funds. So Novak," the one who has been standing on the front line, speaking out for his master, also asked Lin The person who took the key from his hand. As soon as he heard his name being mentioned, of course his ears perked up, "You will take my place, stay in this academy, and help me take care of everything here. I will leave a box of the money for use." As for the rest, let’s all share it equally.”
"Okay!" With a cheer, everyone drank the contents of the cup in one gulp. This victory can be said to be a good omen, and Shurion enjoys the feeling of controlling his destiny. No matter what you hold in your hand is your own or someone else's.
At night, the home in the community was not peaceful. The three masters and apprentices were simply packing up their belongings.
This is not moving, this is running away at night!
Setting such a tone for the two apprentices, the things the three people packed up were also very clear. Anything that has no practical value, is replaceable and is not necessary for daily use will not be carried. As for those precious and rare magic material collections, only bring some that are lighter and easier to carry. The magic stones were all packed with quality above the Huang Shang level, but a few of the Hongyao level ones were randomly grabbed.
As for daily necessities, they are arranged according to the model of camping trips in the past. A wok, three bowls, a few changes of clothing, medicine, food seasonings including salt, and some personal necessities. Because the three masters and apprentices had a lot of camping experience, they were familiar with the roads and vehicles when packing these things, and they were ready quickly.
The most important thing is, of course, money. Bring along some Jiangxi and Danba silver and copper coins that may be used on the trip, as well as Kir gold coins, which are high-quality fine coins, and also grab a handful of ordinary good coins. As for bad money, those low-quality coins that need to be processed before they can be circulated are not included. In short, limit the amount to one cash box and a few carry-on purses. This is equivalent to giving up most of your property.
The second most important thing is the weapons. Since returning to Wulian City from the Tower of the Great Sage, Lin has not had much free time. Unlike before, he would make some unknown weapons and equipment just for fun. But the most basic weapons and equipment are polished very sharply. Of course you have to carry these life-saving things with you.
Before leaving, the three masters and disciples gathered and stood in front of the coffin room. Lin Zhen struggled for a while, until Kaya asked: "Teacher, do you want to take that thing away?"
Another sigh. I don’t know how many times it has happened during this period of time. Lin said: "The programs inside have all been copied, and those things will not be taken away."
If there was something that might force that lich to hunt him down, the first coffin and the purple transformation-level magic stone inside would definitely be at the top of the list. Greed is the original sin, and I don't want to live like one of the Xianxia, who kills people, steals goods, and chases and flees for some unknown precious things.
Of course, the most important thing is that I have absolutely no confidence in escaping that person's pursuit. So the best way is not to give her any reason to pursue him.
Maybe everything that happened before today was a very beautiful dream. Although the last period of time was a bit painful, it reminded myself that it was time to wake up.
He scratched the heads of the two girls and messed up their hair. He hadn't done this for a long time. Smiling with relief, Lin said: "Let's go, leave here. Find a place where no one knows and start a new life."
The two girls pouted and held their heads, expressing their deep dissatisfaction without speaking.
Take the mule out of the stable. It's not that someone can't afford a horse. Firstly, horses are relatively delicate, and secondly, horses that can adapt to the smell of those two big dogs are hard to find. After all, not all animals can live safely within the same range as Warcraft, and this mule happens to be an animal that can adapt to the smell of Warcraft. I just don’t know if it’s due to species, or if this mule is just slow.
The mule was disturbed in the middle of the night and was a little grumpy, but the two girls still hitched it to the car. I didn't take much belongings with me, mainly because I didn't want to attract too much attention. Whether it's a thief on the road or someone who may be watching you secretly. It's best to walk far enough away that no one realizes that you've run away.
Because they were driving in the middle of the night, Lin, who often stayed up late to watch the stars, was more awake at this time than the two girls who lived normal lives. So it was he who drove the mule, while the two girls curled up and lay in the gap between the piles of belongings. Fortunately, it was a summer night, so it wasn't cold, but rather comfortable.
The cool breeze blew against his head, and Lin felt that he had become more awake, from all aspects.
In order to hide from possible informants, Lin drove on the road to the college. This is not the first time I have carried goods in the middle of the night, so there should be some deception.
For nearly two years, I walked on this road almost every day, rain or shine. Everything in this scene is extremely familiar, but this is the first time I look at this familiar scene with the feeling that I will never see it again.
Ginkgo trees and banyan trees grow on both sides of the road. I still remember that every time I took shelter from the shade and rain, it would never happen again. Every bend, every boulder for rest, goodbye, I will never come back.
Saying goodbye one by one, sighing one after another, driving a small truck pulled by a mule, walking under the moonlight. This reminds someone of a Kunqu opera piece called Lin Chong's Night Run, which tells the story of Lin Chong, the leopard-headed character in Water Margin, who was persecuted and fled to Liangshan.
I am quite familiar with the story of Water Margin, and I have read the entire book three or five times. It's a pity that I only know the Kun Opera repertoire, but I haven't seen it or learned the singing. Otherwise, I would have hummed a few times with my tone-deaf voice.
After walking here for most of the night, Wulian City chased out another group of people. More than a dozen people, lightly dressed and on fast horses, were running on the road to the academy. The leader used both feet to exert force, his buttocks lifted off the saddle, and he galloped wildly, chasing the target designated by his master.
Not long ago, the guy who took over the guard duty told me about the target's movements. This blind bitch, because the target was not the first time to deliver goods to the academy in the middle of the night, he thought that today would be the same as the past few times, so he did not report back immediately. But he never thought that the target had been deprived of his position in that college, how could he still move things there.
In fact, I didn't even think about this for a moment. I still fell on the bed. The more I thought about it, the more something was wrong, and then I was shocked to realize what was going on. Who would have thought that that person would be so straightforward and run away without delay.
He hurriedly gathered the troops in the middle of the night and sent someone to notify the master. Before he could wait for the next instructions, he led his men to chase him out. I just hope I can catch up with my target in time.
