C526 Cloud Island Fengyun Academy
The three of them looked up, and a few ships came from the sky. Lan Tian quickly pulled the stunned girl and went into a hole.
Old White Dragon's body flashed and entered the hole as well. He glared at Lan Tian and scolded him. "Damn it, you useless thing. I let you go in and kill the old Emperor. Yet, you stole a little girl and came out! It's really been three days since I last saw a woman. My heart feels terrible! "
He pulled out the wine jar and gulped down a few mouthfuls before continuing to scold," Although, as a man, it's very normal for him to like women. But you can't love every single one of them, right? "
"Good fellow. Last time I fell in love with Bing that lass. Who knew that lass would actually have designs on you, Master Dragon. She wants to drink the blood on my body and eat my flesh. "
She stared at the girl who was eating the chicken with her old eyes and asked, "Hey, little girl, don't just eat. Master Dragon, ask you, what's your name? Are you also going to eat your Master Dragon's? "
The girl looked at Old White Dragon, then she retched and almost threw up the food she was eating.
The old man laughed happily. "Hahaha, you didn't swallow your saliva at Master Dragon. Instead, you wanted to vomit. This means that you really didn't want to eat Master Dragon's food."
"Then why did you, a little girl, enter the palace? Do you want to get the old Emperor in your hands?"
The girl did not reply to him and only focused on eating the chicken. She ate more than half of the chicken before she was full.
She took out a piece of cloth from her pocket and wrapped the rest of the chicken. Then she smiled and introduced herself.
"My name is Zhong Ling. My parents divorced when I was young. Then they had their own families. I became redundant."
"At that time, I was still young. In order not to starve to death, I became a thief. In the past, I stole things purely to fill my stomach."
" Now that I've grown up, of course I don't want to be a thief anymore. I heard that there's a Wind Cloud Academy in Cloud Island. As long as you continue your studies there for three years, when you come out, you'll be the target of all the countries. "
"Hehe, when the time comes, I'll also make Great State Tutor a pawn!"
"But the tuition fee for that Wind Cloud Academy is not cheap, so I came in to steal some gold and silver to be my tuition fee. Oh right, what's your name? Why did you kill the Emperor?"
Lan Tian shook his head, "My name is Lan Tian. As for why I killed the old Emperor, it's hard to explain in a few words. It's fine if I don't mention it. You mean the Wind Cloud Academy is not far from here?"
Zhong Ling nodded. "It's far. Not only is it far away, but I also have to cross several uninhabited areas. I'm going to spend some money to go with the mercenary group. With their protection, there shouldn't be any danger along the way. "
Speaking up to this point, her eyes lit up. "Mr Lan, why don't you come with me? I heard that the students of Wind Cloud Academy not only send them to various countries. Furthermore, every five years, there will be immortals coming down to take in a batch of top students! "
"There's such a thing?"
Lan Tian's heart moved. He looked at Old White Dragon who only cared about drinking and said, "Old man, why don't we go and take a look too?"
The old man laughed and said, "I knew you couldn't leave a woman. Seeing how cute Zhong Xiaoniang is, your soul is gone."
"Don't talk about what academy she's going to. Even if she's going to hell, you will still happily follow her."
After saying that, he asked Zhong Ling, "Xiaoniang, since we are going, then don't follow any mercenaries. It will be troublesome. You just need to cling onto my son's back and let him carry you and fly."
Zhong Ling shook her head, "But do you know where the academy is? And I heard that we have to pass by some Devil Mountain along the way."
"That Devil Mountain is above the clouds. I heard that there is fog everywhere in Devil Mountain. After people enter, they will never be able to come out again."
"If you accidentally fly into the Devil Mountain, won't your lives be in vain?"
The old man scratched his head, "That's true. Then spend some money to go with the mercenaries."
The three of them discussed for a while. It was already dawn. Lan Tian asked Zhong Ling to lead the way and walked towards the mercenaries.
In the afternoon, the three of them reached a big yard. There were many people inside. Some of them hired bodyguards, and some wanted to be mercenaries.
After Lan Tian explained the purpose of his visit, a bearded man welcomed them.
"Three of you, my name is Zheng Wu. I am in charge of this trip to Cloud Island. Our spaceship will take off in a week. Everyone's fee is 50 million gold coins. "2
"If you want to go, you need to pay 500 gold coins as deposit right now. After paying, if you don't want to go again, then the deposit will not be refunded. You have to think it through."
Before Lan Tian could say anything, Old White Dragon glared at him." Damn it, it's so expensive? Why don't you go and rob them?"
The bearded man was not angry. He chuckled and said, "If you think it's expensive, fine. You guys don't have to go. We won't force you."
Seeing that Old White Dragon still wanted to speak, Lan Tian waved his hand and said, "Forget it. Anyway, we don't lack this bit of money. We won't pay the deposit anymore. We'll just pay for the three of them at once. "
It was really not a heartache to spend the stolen money. He immediately transferred all the money to the three of them.
With so much money, Big Beardy definitely wouldn't be able to put it on the table, and there were gold coins all over the floor.
The big bearded man happily gave Lan Tian a thumbs up, "Older brother, I can see that you are a bright person. Alright, tell me your name and I'll register."
After saying that, he put all the money into the storage ring, took out a book, and wrote it down for Lan Tian and the other two. Then he smiled and said, "Alright, one week later, which is the 15th of this month, you guys can come over at 5 AM in the morning."
The three of them left the courtyard. Zhong Ling excitedly said to Lan Tian, "Mr Lan, thank you for helping me pay the fare. I will go and sell the spirit stone now, and I will return it to you in half a month."
Lan Tian waved his hand. "No need. Anyway, I stole it from the Imperial Palace. Oh right, where are you going these few days? "
Zhong Ling revealed a sad smile. "I still have a few children. They are all orphans. I want to use these few days to entrust them to reliable friends. "
Lan Tian gave an 'oh' and pulled out a storage ring and handed it over, "This is a little token of my appreciation. Take it and give it to the children to spend."
Zhong Ling originally thought that there would not be too much, so she casually took it. When she looked inside, she immediately cried out, "So much? Then what do you spend on yourself?"
Lan Tian smiled and patted his pocket. "I still have more. You go ahead. We'll meet in a week."
Zhong Ling looked at the storage ring in her hand, her eyes glistening with tears. She nodded her head forcefully, turned around, and strode away. As she walked, she used the back of her hand to wipe away her tears.
Old White Dragon chuckled and said, "Son, in order to woo this girl, you actually spent so much money. Are you infatuated or are you squandering? "
Lan Tian pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and took a puff.
He said in a deep voice, "I am only doing my best to help those poor children. Let's go! This place is not suitable to stay for long. Don't let those soldiers or Beggar Sect discover us. When the time comes, we will be in trouble again."
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a voice say, "I have a place where I can avoid all these troubles!"
