Chapter 46 An Abandoned Garden

Xue Qingge opened the door of the monastery. The woman in a gray-white dress gave a slight salute outside the door and whispered: "Fairy, Lord Qiu Feng has something to say, let the teenager go out as soon as possible after the diagnosis and treatment. They still have important things to do."

Xue Qingge nodded, turned to look at Zhao Hanyu, and said, "You... Lord Qiufeng is still waiting outside the yard, why not..."

When Zhao Hanyu heard this, he quickly stood up, with a shameless face and said, "I forgot that my uncle is still waiting for me, I..." He was very reluctant to leave.

Xue Qingge took two steps forward, touched him almost shoulders and elbows, and said softly: "I will still linger in the capital for several days. When I meet, don't worry, go."

Zhao Hanyu nodded blankly, looked at the best eyes in the world, and said blankly, "Then I'm going."

Xue Qingge looked at his stupid look, held back the smile in his heart, and gently pointed his head.

Zhao Hanyu's legs were like a heavy object, and he took a hard time and walked out of the temple with one step and three steps. The speed of leaving was extremely slow.

Xue Qingge pursed her lips and waved at him from time to time.

After finally waiting for Zhao Hanyu to finish the straight road in front of the house, he turned and was discharged from the hospital. Xue Qingge covered her stomach with her hands and squatted down with a smile, but she didn't want to make a sound, so she endured it extremely hard.

After laughing for a long time, my mind changed, and suddenly I felt very shy again. I let out a "moan" sound, covered my face with both hands and hid in the room. With a "splash", the door of the house was closed tightly.

......

Zhao Hanyu walked out of the Xingyue Hall without hesitation.

Taoist Qiu Feng watched him walk out from a distance, and saw that he was in a daze and he felt a little confused.

Zhao Hanyu recalled those eyes all the way, not knowing that Taoist Qiu Feng was close to him. Seeing that the two were about to collide with each other, Taoist Qiu Feng stretched out his right palm and pushed him gently, and asked, "Child, what's wrong?"

Zhao Hanyu shouted "Ah" before he woke up.

He looked at Taoist Qiu Feng's puzzled look, not knowing how to explain, and he was unwilling to deceive lies. He had to give a deep bow and said, "Uncle Master, my nephew cannot cure the girl, he can only temporarily suppress her pain. If you want to recover, you have to find another good solution."

Seeing that his expression returned to normal, Taoist Qiu Feng was reluctant to bother with this issue even though he was a little confused. He heard that he had suppressed the girl's injuries and was stunned. Thinking that the national teacher was indeed as expected, the young man was really capable and had a slight smile on his face.

He smiled and said, "Child, it's great. This matter has come to an end. Now I will take you to do the second thing, which is to arrange for you to enter a college."

Zhao Hanyu looked up at Taoist Qiu Feng and wanted to ask about something about Xue Qingge, but seeing that his uncle had turned around, he had to give up and follow him.

The two walked towards the north of the city.

Along the way, the two passed the Sanjia Palace and the Prime Minister's Manor, and turned two intersections. The terrain in front gradually rose, and a majestic building stood towards us.

Zhao Hanyu looked at the spectacular palace from afar and knew that it was the center of the Tang Dynasty - the imperial palace.

Although I have read everything about this palace countless times in the classics and imagined its magnificence countless times in my heart, when this palace really came into my eyes, Zhao Hanyu vaguely understood the true meaning of the so-called "the most powerful country in the mainland and the most powerful palace in the world".

Taoist Qiu Feng led him to the palace gate, then turned east and walked seven or eight miles along the long palace wall. There was an alley to the right at the corner, called Babao Lane.

Zhao Hanyu was puzzled. Will there be a college at such a close distance from the palace?

The two of them came to the end of Babao Lane to stop. He saw the main entrance of the college. The stone walls on both sides were covered with green vines. The sunlight passed through and left a very faint mottled spot without a name.

Is it here?

Taoist Qiu Feng stood aside without saying a word, as if he was feeling a little emotional.

The alley was extremely deserted. After standing for a while, no one passed by. Only the obviously dilapidated courtyard gate accompanied the two of them silently. It was so quiet that the land was close to the palace and the extremely precious place now seemed like a piece of ruins that no one cares about.

Zhao Hanyu walked to the stone wall next to the courtyard gate, stretched out his hand to pull open the dense green vine branches and leaves, and finally saw a word engraved on the wall below. It was a word "fall". The once bright paint in the profound handwriting had been eroded by countless years of wind and rain. Even the surface of the stone wall itself had already shown signs of peeling off.

He remembered that Master Qiu Feng said just now that he wanted to arrange for him to enter a college. He was slightly stunned and confirmed that it was really here. He couldn't help but feel more confused. Why did Master Qiu Feng ask me to come to this college? Why is this college so deserted and deserted?

When he thought about these things, he still held the green vine in his hand and pulled it down again, so he saw the second word, which was the word "maple". He didn't have time to make more emotion. With his actions, the green vine that had been unattended for many years slid into the ground, causing a lot of smoke and dust.

Zhao Hanyu took a few steps back to avoid being stained with the green vine dust. He turned around and looked at Taoist Qiu Feng with a questioning look on his face.

The green vines fell to the ground, and the smoke gradually subsided. Soon, the stone wall that had not seen the sunshine for many years finally appeared in front of the world again.

Four words are engraved on the mottled stone wall.

"Luofeng Academy".

There is no longer much paint on the handwriting that is deeply rooted in the stone, only the accumulated gray soil, the dead leaves and fleece left by the green vines last year, and even the corners have been invaded by wind and rain, which is a bit broken. If you don’t look carefully, it will be difficult to recognize what these words are.

Looking at Shibi in a daze, Zhao Hanyu didn't speak for a long time, and felt frustrated and low-spirited. He asked with all his heart, rarely had the same emotions as he is now. Yes, he really wanted to turn around and leave now - even if he went in, what help could such a dilapidated academy help his life?

At this time, Taoist Qiu Feng behind him sighed and said, "Child, let's go in and take a look."

Zhao Hanyu was shocked and thought to himself if it was really this place?

Taoist Qiu Feng had already walked up to him.

Even if Zhao Hanyu was unwilling to do so, he didn't dare to say anything anymore, so he stepped forward and landed on the door, and put a little force.

A "creak" sound.

After many years, the gate of Luofeng College finally opened again.

......

......

Zhao Hanyu looked at the scene in front of him: the college, which was still as cold as a cemetery under the bright sunshine, could not help but doubt his future.

Taoist Qiu Feng sighed, he had not come in for a long time, and he did not expect that Luofeng Academy, which had written countless magnificent chapters in history, has now fallen to this level.

Zhao Hanyu looked at Taoist Qiu Feng again, his eyes very sad.

Taoist Qiu Feng didn't say anything and walked straight ahead, so Zhao Hanyu had to follow him.

Most of the hour later, the two stood in the atrium, with weeds on the ground, and insects were chirping, desolate and helpless, looking around at a loss.

They didn't see anyone, and they couldn't see anyone.

Previously, Zhao Hanyu thought that no matter how deserted Luofeng Academy was, at least some left-behind teachers or old men in the door were required. Who would have thought that they had traveled all over the entire academy, let alone figures, there was no trace of someone who had been here recently.

Behind the atrium of Luofeng Academy is the once majestic and magnificent teaching building, which has now become a gloomy ruin. The buildings above the second floor have collapsed. Only half of the former dragon-headed fountain is left. Several green plants grow from the remaining body of the stone dragon, with purple flowers blooming on the branches, beautiful and sad.

It is obviously not a trace left by the wind and rain, and it has nothing to do with time. It should be that more than ten years ago or earlier, a fierce battle occurred here. The main teaching building was affected and became so miserable.

Zhao Hanyu thought silently, shook his head, and followed Taoist Qiu Feng to the well-preserved building to the right.

The building was built with stone and wood, about a few feet high. The stone walls were covered with green vines and moss, and the beams, pillars and doors and windows were peeled off. It looked extremely dilapidated. There was a plaque hanging above the stone steps of the main entrance. It took him a long time to recognize two of them and confirm that the building should be related to the collection of books.

Taoist Qiu Feng stood quietly in front of the door. He walked to the window and looked inside. The light was a little dim, but it was still clear that there were many books on the bookshelf inside. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that there were so many books in Luofeng Academy, which had been declining for many years. The sect hall had not taken it away. Does the court ignore it?

Books were the first thing he had come into contact with and was the most familiar thing in this world. Like ordinary people’s memory of breast milk, innate closeness can give infinite spiritual comfort. At this time, he was wearing so many books through the window, for no reason, and his somewhat depressed mood became slightly excited.

He walked to the front door and was about to push the door in, but he saw a copper lock hanging on the door. The surface of the copper lock was dull and dull. The copper green was faintly visible where it came into contact with the door. It was extremely old. I don’t know how long it had been opened. More importantly, an extremely powerful aura faintly came from the copper lock.

He felt that there should be a very strong formation hidden in the copper lock.

——No wonder Luofeng Academy has been wasted for so many years, and its collection can be preserved so completely, and it has not been stolen by those thieves and those who don’t have money to drink. Thinking of this, his mood has become better, but he doesn’t know how to unlock it, because he doesn’t have a key, and he doesn’t know if there is a key, so where is the key? In whose hands?

He turned his head and looked at Taoist Qiu Feng who was sighing and asked, "Uncle Master, who is in the key here?"

Taoist Qiu Feng slowly looked up, with a complicated look on his face, and asked: "Are you sure you need the key here? Not only the key, but also the roster and the college's education subsidy. But there are no teachers, no students, and no people here. Are you... willing to ask for these?"
