Film and TV: Traveling through countless worlds at the same time

Lin An's mouth twitched slightly. "Haha, nothing? I don't know who it is, but she keeps using me as a shield and asking me to accompany her to the academy."

While the two were bickering, Lu Xiao had already walked over.

He ignored Lin'an and set his sights on Pingyang.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The last time Pingyang came to the academy was a month ago.

As the saying goes, a day without seeing you feels like three years.

Come to think of it, it's been quite a while.

Pingyang explained: "Well, there's something going on at home recently."

But when she said this, her tone was a little depressed.

Although she tried her best to conceal it, Lu Xiao still heard it.

At this time, Xu Cijiu came over from behind.

"Brother, I'll take my leave now. I haven't finished my homework for today."

After saying this, he bowed to Lin'an and Pingyang again, and then left.

You know what, sometimes Xu Cijiu, this idiot, is quite perceptive, unlike some other guys.

So Lu Xiao turned his attention to "certain guys".

Chapter 17 Promise

Under Lu Xiao's gaze, "some guys" still had no self-awareness at all.

Finally, Lu Xiao could only helplessly speak to Lin An.

"You're not leaving?"

When Lin'an heard this, he immediately became furious.

"Hey, you nerd, please don't be ungrateful. If it weren't for me, would you two be able to meet so smoothly every time? You, don't abandon me after I've done my job!"

Lu Xiao clapped his hands twice, then said, "It's rare that you can come up with two idioms in one sentence. Are you still the Princess Lin'an I know?"

Lin An became even angrier. "Don't think I can't hear you mocking me, you stinking nerd! I'm not done with you."

Pingyang beside him shook his head helplessly.

It seemed like her best friend and her sweetheart were born to be incompatible. Every time they met, they would quarrel. She had long been accustomed to it.

"Lin'an, forget it. Master Lu means no harm. Why don't you go for a walk alone first? I have something I want to discuss with Master Lu in private."

Hearing about her best friend's betrayal, Lin An's heart suddenly turned cold.

"You, you are so heartless. If you really forget your old love when you have a new one, I guess I was wrong about you. Wuu ...

At this moment, the Lin'an actor was possessed, his face filled with grief, and he finally wiped his eyes and ran away crying.

Of course, it's all fake, and the last sentence is all in theatrical tones.

Lin'an is the essence of drama.

After Lin'an left, Lu Xiao and Pingyang walked side by side in the mountains.

This walk took more than an hour.

But the atmosphere today was a little strange. Pingyang, who usually talks a lot, didn't say a word during the whole journey. He was silent the whole time.

It was not until the end that Lu Xiao finally spoke up and asked.

"Are you worried about something?"

Hearing Lu Xiao's question, Pingyang took a deep breath, and finally, as if he had made up his mind, he grabbed Lu Xiao's hand, looked up at his face, and spoke seriously.

"Will you elope with me?"

After she finished speaking, her breathing suddenly became much heavier, and she seemed to have shrunk a step, as if these words had exhausted all her strength.

Lu Xiao did not answer directly, but continued to ask.

"What happened to you?"

Pingyang nodded and said, "My father wants to arrange a marriage for me, but I don't want to marry anyone else. How about we elope somewhere where no one knows us?"

Pingyang's father is Prince Yu, a great hero of the dynasty.

Currently, Prince Yu is serving as the Minister of War, and is at a critical juncture.

With the support of many meritorious officials in the court, he has a good chance of entering the cabinet.

The Dafeng court was in chaos, with constant factional strife.

The Meritorious Group has been declining over the years, so they really need someone like Prince Yu.

If Prince Yu could enter the cabinet, it would be a great help to the entire Meritorious Group.

Therefore, regardless of whether Prince Yu is willing or not, the Meritorious Group will drag him forward.

In order to gain more support from the court officials, Prince Yu, who was at the center of the storm, decided to arrange a marriage for his daughter.

Political marriages have always been like this.

After finishing the explanation, Pingyang looked at Lu Xiao expectantly.

As long as Lu Xiao nodded, she would be willing to risk everything and elope with him.

Even if she has to eat simple meals every day from now on, she is willing to do so.

But at this time, Lu Xiao shook his head slightly.

"I don't want to elope."

Hearing this, Pingyang's eyes dimmed instantly, and even his heart began to become dead silent.

"By the way, with his talent, it won't be difficult for him to get into high school. He has a bright future ahead of him. How could he be willing to elope with me just for a little bit of romance? It's my wishful thinking after all."

Pingyang thought so in his heart.

The hand holding Lu Xiao slowly loosened.

Just before she was about to let go, Lu Xiao suddenly took the initiative and tightened his grip on her hand.

"Are your demands so low?"

Pingyang was stunned: "Huh?"

She didn't react to what Lu Xiao was saying.

Lu Xiao continued, "Don't you want me to marry you openly and honestly?"

This time she finally reacted.

He immediately said without hesitation: "I want to, of course I want to, but..."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt a huge force coming.

Then she fell unconsciously into Lu Xiao's arms.

"No buts. Believe me, give me a few days and I will change your father's mind, and then I will marry you openly in a sedan chair carried by eight people."

Feeling the hot breath on his cheek, Pingyang was a little confused at the moment.

Although she didn't know where Lu Xiao got the confidence from.

But since he said it, she was willing to believe it.

So she began to use her hands to hold Lu Xiao tightly, as if to cheer herself up.

After a long time, she said.

"Okay, I believe you."

At this moment, a cry of surprise suddenly came from not far away.

“Ouch! That hurts.”

Suddenly, a red figure jumped out from the bushes.

Then he clapped his hands rapidly on his arms.

Apart from Lin'an, there is naturally no other person who would be like this.

It seems that she was bitten by mosquitoes while hiding in the bushes.

It's summer now, and mosquitoes are very ferocious in Qingyun Mountain.

In order to eat melon, she really worked hard.

As expected of her.

However, Lin'an's appearance obviously frightened Pingyang.

She was like a frightened cat, and she broke free from Lu Xiao's embrace.

Seeing this, Lu Xiao glared at Lin'an in the distance with resentful eyes.

It's all this guy's fault.

After being interrupted, the ambiguous atmosphere that had been brewing before naturally disappeared, leaving only awkwardness.

Only Lin'an could still be so shameless as to walk over here as if nothing had happened.

Then he said without any guilt, "I wasn't spying on you on purpose. I saw you guys hadn't come back for so long and was worried something might have happened to you, so I came to check on you."

"Hehe." Lu Xiao smiled with a fake smile.

I'd be surprised if I believed you.

Come and take a look. Is it necessary to hide in the bushes?

God knows how long this guy has been following me.

Maybe she also knew that her excuse was a little unconvincing.

So she took Pingyang's hand without saying anything.

"Alright, it's getting late. If you don't go back now, you'll definitely be discovered, you idiot. I heard everything you just said. If you let Pingyang down, I will report this to my father and have him punish you severely."

Lu Xiao ignored her threats.

But it was indeed late, that was true.

Looking at Pingyang, whose face was already almost cooked, Lu Xiao said softly.

"Just go back and trust me."

Pingyang nodded: "Yeah."

The sound is like a mosquito.

Then she was pulled by Lin'an, looking back every few steps, reluctant to leave.

After the two disappeared at the end of the mountain, Lu Xiao turned around and continued walking towards the top of the mountain.

This time, he walked very quickly without any hesitation.

After a stick of incense, the gate of the Sub-Sage Academy appeared before his eyes.

The Yasheng Academy is open to students all year round.

Any student can come and pay homage at any time.

However, it was already late today, so Lu Xiao didn't encounter any other classmates along the way.

When he entered the academy, he saw a silhouette.

Chapter 18 Dean Zhao Shou's death and the death of eighty people

The silhouette was of an old man in linen clothes, his graying hair casually scattered in a ripple, giving him a somewhat slovenly and uninhibited look.

At this moment, the old man was standing in front of a blank stone tablet, holding a brush in his hand, intending to write on it.

Unfortunately, the brush was raised and put down, and then raised again.

I couldn't write a single word for a long time.

Finally, the old man sighed heavily and placed the brush on the table next to him.

That sigh was filled with loneliness and old age, and even a hint of despair.
