The mountain breeze in midsummer seems to have a bit of a burning effect.
The cicadas on the distant mountains were chirping hysterically.
The hot road surface feels a little sticky when you step on it, as if the soles of your feet are melting...
Yi Jiao held the document bag on her chest and slowly walked towards the ordinary-looking mountain.
There was no absurd or magical reversal in everything.
The notification letter from Peking University, like other students, was sent to Yi Jiao's home as scheduled.
During this period, there were no calls from other colleges and universities.
In fact, Yi Jiao received a call from the Admissions Office of Peking University a few days ago.
After sharing this true joy of relief with her family, Yi Jiao immediately picked up her mobile phone and dialed a certain number.
The call went through, but it was Sheen the Feather who answered.
It means that Yi Xia is out hunting.
But since she called Yi Xia, he must know.
Yi Jiao was stunned for a moment before reacting.
Before that, she sometimes called to greet her, and Yu Ren also answered the phone.
But at that time, it always said that Yi Xia was on a business trip.
Now that I think about it, I probably went hunting.
hunting……
Yi Jiao considered this word repeatedly in her mind.
She probably now has a vague understanding of Yi Xia's status in the extraordinary realm.
But, if it were like that, what kind of terrifying thing would it be hunting?
Is it a thousand-foot-tall evil dragon, or one of those ferocious beasts from ancient myths?
Yi Jiao didn't know.
She walked alone through the bustling streets, passing by alleys filled with the aroma of food and the noise of people.
The city's reinforced concrete buildings were like cold forests guarding her on both sides.
The clouds above her head happened to be on the same road as her, bringing a bit of coolness under the scorching waves.
Yi Jiao was not the only one who got the admission notice.
Along the way, she could hear many cheering sounds and calls to announce the good news.
She is the same as them, but ends up in a very different future.
Finally, she reached the foot of the mountain.
The clouds along the way did not wait, but flew leisurely in the direction it promised.
The guard at the foot of the mountain smiled kindly at Yi Jiao.
Yi Jiao had some impression of him.
Because it's midsummer now, although a large number of households in the city now have air conditioners.
But for older people, they have experienced quite difficult years.
Therefore, in some aspects, there will be savings that are often difficult for young people to understand.
Therefore, when Yi Jiao went up the mountain, she could see many people preparing to go to the mountain to enjoy the cool air.
It's summer vacation now, and some cubs are being dragged to the mountains.
Whether they are happy or not is unknown.
Yi Jiao stepped on the shade of the trees and walked towards the mountain.
Along the way, she unexpectedly met a classmate.
After seeing Yi Jiao, the other party greeted her from a distance.
The other party's expression was very natural, but Yi Jiao could feel a little restrained.
As for the source of this restraint, Yi Jiao felt that it might come from the parents next to him...
Everything hasn't started yet, but there seems to be an invisible line that separates her past from the future.
But is it really so?
Yi Jiao looked at the closed gate on the hillside in front and the children playing on the mountain path next to it.
She felt that maybe the answer was not that...
The iron door slowly opened, and a familiar figure appeared in front of Yi Jiao.
At this time, Yi Jiao, who was always smart, didn't know what to say.
She handed the document bag to Yi Xia and smiled shyly.
She knew that maybe when the exam was over, or even before it was over.
Her brother Yi Xia has already understood everything.
But it looked like he opened the document bag in a more ceremonial manner, looked at the admission notice inside, and showed a slight smile that showed no signs of performance.
Yi Jiao, who was originally somewhat anxious, now felt much calmer.
It was as if she was back in that wide-eyed park afternoon.
Only this time, no passers-by pricked up their ears curiously...
"Then just like we agreed, let's teach you how to raise toads."
Yi Xia put away the notice and said to Yi Jiao with a smile.
"...Can I learn anything else?"
Yi Jiao said softly.
"That won't work..."
After Yi Jiao couldn't help but reveal a slightly disappointed expression, Yi Xia then smiled and said:
"Then you have to become a disciple..."
The Yu Ren next to him watched the scene quietly without any fluctuation in his expression.
The evil nature of the great witch is indeed as bad as ever...
It thought secretly in its heart.
…………
…………
The sun is shining brightly in the garden, but it doesn't seem too hot.
Various seasonal flowers in full bloom decorate the garden with bright colors.
There is not too strong floral fragrance, or in other words, they only move within a limited range.
Yi Jiao has been here many times.
But this time, everything seems particularly different...
"When it comes to becoming an apprentice, although I'm not very rigid, I still go through some basic procedures."
"By the way, don't forget to tell your family that you may have to go back later today."
In the garden, Yi Xia lay lazily in the air.
Even if he was ready to accept Yi Jiao as his disciple, he would not create a majestic or solemn image of a teacher specifically for this purpose.
Yi Jiao on the other side was drinking the mung bean soup brought by Yu Ren.
There was also a small and cute cartoon wood carving on the otherwise regular bowl.
While Yi Jiao was studying, she certainly didn’t have much energy to surf the Internet.
So don't know much about it.
So after listening to Yi Xia's words and nodding obediently, Yi Jiao felt somewhat puzzled.
Her eyes wandered between Yi Xia and Yu Ren, wondering whose work this was...
She looks pretty girly...
Yi Jiao whispered in her heart.
But Yi Xia here didn't pay attention to this. He was sending messages to some seniors who were familiar with him through the comprehensive network and various channels.
As planned before, Yi Xia is not planning to invite too many forces this time.
Except for the old Dragon King of the Thirteen Dragon Palace and a few other people who were close enough, some wild seniors were also invited.
Of course, the main thing was a unilateral invitation - from Yi Xia's point of view, he felt that these seniors didn't seem to be able to spare the time to come.
As for the process of apprenticeship, after carefully studying the relevant inheritance of Wu Jin.
Yi Xia felt that it was too complicated and simplified it directly.
In Yi Xia's view, the most important function of these complicated ritual processes is to inform the world.
But for Yi Xia, it was just a thought...
So, there is no need to bother like that.
In this way, the sun gradually sets towards the west until dusk...
