The cub he picked up didn't come with an instruction manual

Xu Huo felt that his waist was bound, as if there was a tight bond around him.

Opening his eyes, he saw a pair of small arms, small and chubby, so tight around them, as if they were filled with endless attachment, and he was also cautious that they might strangle him.

"Guilin?"

A chubby body tried to arch into his arms, and raised his small face towards him, the smile on his small face was genuinely happy, "Brother——"

"Guiling!"

Xu Huo was overjoyed immediately, he hurriedly supported Gui Ling's small shoulder, and kept sizing him up, "Are you all right? Are you really all right?"

"Brother, I'm fine." Gui Ling's voice was sweet, like honey.

"That's great." Xu Huo couldn't help but hugged him tightly, almost weeping with joy, he sniffled, "Brother was almost scared to death by you."

"Brother, don't be afraid." Gui Ling hugged Xu Huo's neck back, his body was pressed tightly against his, and his small face kept rubbing against each other. He said very sweetly and seriously: "Brother, I like you——"

"Brother likes you too." Xu Huo felt a little funny again, patted him on the back lightly, tore him off, rubbed his chubby face, and asked, "Why are you standing in front of my brother? Are you not afraid?" ?"

That's right, when the little guy is scared, he hugs his thigh, and puts his face on his lap in a deceitful manner.

Gui Ling frowned, and said seriously: "Because monsters can bite people, I don't want my brother to be hurt..."

I don't want my brother to be hurt, the answer is so straightforward.

Children's words are unscrupulous, but they are the most sincere.

Xu Huo's chest suddenly twitched, he held his cute chubby face, and said softly: "If the monster hurts you, you will be hurt too."

"I'm not afraid." Gui Ling's big black and white eyes gleamed, "As long as my brother is fine, I'm not afraid."

Xu Huo's heart had softened into a puddle of water, and he said softly, "Don't stand in front of my brother in the future. If my brother can protect himself, he can also protect you."

Gui Ling's little head shook like a rattle: "No, I also want to protect my brother, my brother is mine..."

Looking at the loving father and filial son, Youqian next to him blinked his dark eyes, and couldn't help thinking to himself: "Is what your lord said true?"

The next day, when Xu Huo and Jiu Ling walked in the campus, they attracted the attention of the surrounding students.

Well, Xu Huo had to admit that they seemed to be famous, and the most satisfying thing for Xu Huo was that he didn't see Duan Zhuo and Ma Yu come out with sharp eyes, which made him very satisfied.

At noon, Xu Huo was called to the dean's office.

Before leaving, Gui Ling grabbed him, handed over the jadeite bracelet that you had turned into from money, and said mysteriously: "Brother, if anyone wants to see the bracelet, just show it to them generously."

"Look at the bracelet?"

Although Xu Huo was full of doubts, he still put the bracelet away.

He already wears a black bitter crowing bracelet on his wrist, and another jade bracelet would be too eye-catching. Xu Huo, who is a straight steel man, feels that the man has too much green on his body, which is unsightly, so he just collects the money. up.

Soon, he came to Vientiane Tower.

Vientiane Pagoda is the library of Tianfeng. There are a large number of books in it, and the types are from ancient to modern across China and foreign countries. Even some out-of-print thread-bound ancient books can be found here.

The dean's office is on the top floor of the Vientiane Tower. First take the elevator to the ninth floor, and then climb up a small spiral staircase to reach the dean's office.

Xu Huo came to the door of the open office, and the scene he saw shocked him.

The dean's office is a wide square, the ceiling is like a European-style dome, a bit like a sky, and the layout is in line with the ancient saying that the sky is round and the place is round.

On the ceiling, according to the distribution of stars, there are many crystals suspended. Under the illumination of the wall lamp, the crystals twinkle and twinkle, presenting the appearance of an outdoor starry sky, which is both beautiful and mysterious.

Xu Huo once heard Ning Hao say that the dean, Mao Shiyu, is a famous stargazing warlock. He has in-depth research on "Hetu Luoshu" and "Butiange", and can understand celestial phenomena and measure the world.

At this moment, under the starry sky, stood two old people, one black and one white. The old people pointed to the starry sky and said something. It was the dean Mao Shiyu and the vice dean Shi Laimi.

Sensing Xu Huo's arrival, Mao Shiyu waved at Xu Huo from afar, "Xu Huo, come here."

Xu Huogui stepped into the office in a regular manner, stepped on the smooth floor paved with black marble, and entered under the mysterious starry sky. When he got close, he saw the two deans clearly.

Mao Shiyu is wearing a double-breasted short-sleeved gown today, which is cool and retro, and because of the hot weather, his beard is tied into a bunch.

Vice-principal Shi Laimi was an old man with a black beard, tall and tall, a circle bigger than the skinny principal, with a Taoist head tied and a white undershirt, looking a bit nondescript.

"President, are you looking for me?"

Mao Shiyu nodded, and said, "Xu Huo, you fought the day before yesterday, and I paid attention afterwards..."

"Dean, I fought because Ma Yu deliberately provoked me." Xu Huo was worried about being punished by the dean, and wanted to explain.

"I think you misunderstood." Mao Shiyu interrupted Xu Huo, trying to ease his expression, "We don't mean to blame you, except for some small episodes, the process of your fighting is completely in line with the school's regulations."

"Then why did the dean come to me?"

Mao Shiyu and Shi Laimi exchanged glances, Mao Shiyu nodded, "Then let me just say it, if possible, we would like to see the jade bracelet you used for fighting back then."

Xu Huo was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect the dean to pay attention to the jade bracelet, and he didn't expect that Gui Ling would predict the future.

Seeing that Mao Shiyu was waiting for his reply, he took out the jade bracelet from his pocket.

As soon as the jade bracelet was taken out, under the starlight all over the sky, the emerald green streamer was reflected, like a small pool of clear water, which attracted the eyes of the two deans.

"Can I take a closer look?" Mao Shiyu said in a calm tone, with imperceptible excitement.

Xu Huo handed over the bracelet directly.

Mao Shiyu took it solemnly, and did not go beyond the Zuzu, and inquired in front of Xu Huo with true energy, but just looked at it over and over for a while, and then handed the bracelet to Shi Laimi to observe carefully.

Seeing them look so carefully, Xu Huo became more and more curious.

After seeing it, Mao Shiyu raised his head and asked, "Xu Huo, where did you get this jade bracelet?"

Xu Huo thought for a while, then prevaricated and said, "I picked it up in the back mountain."

The Gui Ling picked up in the Valley of Falling Devils in the Houshan, the Guiling adopted the rich, and the money turned into a jade bracelet, so it is simpler and more direct, it is the jade bracelet picked up in the Houshan, the logic is no problem..

Mao Shiyu was stunned when he heard the words, he looked at Shi Laimi in surprise, Shi Laimi was holding the bracelet, and his face also changed color.

Seeing them so surprised, Xu Huo secretly wondered if he had said something wrong.

Shi Laimi broke the silence: "Xu Huo, does this jade bracelet have many changes?"

"Hmm—" Xu Huo didn't say clearly, but just nodded vaguely.

Mao Shiyu was silent for a while, and finally said: "Xu Huo, do you know the three secret realms?"

"Know"

Xu Huo only heard about it from Ning Hao.

Mao Shiyu continued to ask: "Then do you know the origin of the three colleges?"

Xu Huo shook his head blankly.

Mao Shiyu said slowly: "Let me first tell you about the relationship between the three colleges..."

Hundreds of years ago, there was a world-famous cultivation academy in the cultivation world, called Kunlun College. Kunlun College had strong teachers and many ancient inheritances. It was different from ordinary cultivation schools, and its teaching methods were more advanced. It was a rise in the cultivation world special power.

What the world doesn't know is that there is a dark secret behind the growth of Kunlun Academy, which is the three secret realms controlled by the academy.

Kunlun Academy was also able to develop into a force in the cultivation world in just a few hundred years under the blessing of the heavenly spirits and earthly treasures in the secret realm.

Unexpectedly, during times of war, Kunlun Academy was forced to transfer precious books to protect the inheritance. A group of teachers with books came to Juxian Mountain and founded the Junlu Cultivation Academy.

Later, due to internal disagreements at Kunlun College, a group of teachers with strong teaching staff went to the East China Sea and established Canghai Fanghu College.

The remaining Kunlun Academy, after a hundred years of injuries, has greatly reduced its strength, and finally changed its name to Xueyu Langfeng Academy.

Therefore, the three colleges all originate from Kunlun College, and they all claim to be authentic.

In order to snatch the three secret realms, the three academies quarreled for many years. In the end, the three colleges divided up the three secret realms respectively. In order to protect the resources in the secret realms, the three secret realms will be opened in turn, and the secret realm collection competition system was started.

When Mao Shiyu said this, he suddenly changed his tone: "Actually, there is a secret that the three colleges have not announced to the public..."

The most precious and mysterious of the three secret realms are not the rare treasures of heaven and earth, but the ancient ruins deep in each secret realm.

But after studying for many years, they did not enter the ancient ruins. Instead, they found some astonishingly precious treasures based on the periphery. They guessed that there must be more valuable things in the ruins. They stopped at the periphery of the ruins because the ruins were firmly locked. .

"For hundreds of years, the college has tried every means, but still can't enter the ancient ruins. After years of research, we found that the key to open the ruins is a ring-like thing. After the ring is inserted into the keyhole, it will deform and change by itself. There can even be hundreds of forms." Mao Shiyu said while observing Xu Huo's expression.

Xu Huo's face was calm, but his heart was full of ups and downs. The money turned into a jade bracelet, isn't it the key in the dean's mouth?

Shi Milai continued: "The three major academies have also tried to copy the key, but in the end the research has stagnated, because the copied key cannot have so many changes."

Xu Huo raised his wrist, "Is the rattan bracelet given to me by Teacher Zhiwan also a copy?"

"good."

"Why did the teacher give me such an important copy?" Xu Huo was puzzled.

Shi Milai said casually: "The copy is invalid, and it's useless to leave it alone. Simple transformation is not bad for self-defense. It seems that Teacher Zhiwan thinks highly of you."

"We agree that this jade bracelet of yours has many changes and is closer to the secret key." Mao Shiyu concluded.

Shi Laimi nodded in agreement: "Maybe your jade bracelet is not enough to open the ruins, but it can open more around the ruins."

"So..." Mao Shiyu looked at Xu Huo meaningfully, "After our discussion, you can break the rules and enter the secret realm as Junlu's student representative."

Tianfeng's freshmen are not eligible to enter the secret realm in the first year, and it is accurate to say that there is an exception.

"You also need to know that in addition to the treasures of heaven and earth, there are many monsters and beasts in the secret realm. Entering is a coexistence of danger and opportunity." Mao Shiyu looked at Xu Huo with a serious expression, "So, this time, the secret realm of the East China Sea is opened. , would you like to go in?"
