Chapter Seventy-Nine Departure

  Chen Jiu did not yield, saying: "A man must never yield to force, he can only fall under the woman's skirt."

  With a panda-eyed Chen Jiu, he groggily got up from his own room, washed up slightly and pushed open the door to walk out. He saw Xiao Yu already sitting in the main hall waiting for him.

  "Get up." Chao Xiao Yu put down his teacup and said.

  "Hmm, we should set off today. If we go late, it's hard to say." Chen Jiubao muttered.

  "There are some things I need to tell you, no matter what means you have, in that place, the only way to survive is with a ruthless heart, only if you're ruthless enough can you make it out alive."

  "Do you think I'm not ruthless enough? Let me tell you, I've been a mountain bandit for eight years!" Chen Jiu retorted.

  "Right, if you hadn't mentioned that you've been a mountain bandit for eight years, I would have forgotten that you're only fourteen this year. Fourteen, and yet you've managed to establish such a large foundation in this den of thieves and snakes that is Qingzhou. It's not easy at all. However, I must remind you to be vigilant, beware of everyone, except yourself, no one is worthy of trust."

  Chen Jiu walked up to Chao Xiao Yu's side, seriously looking at his face for a while: "This manly attire of yours does look quite stylish, unfortunately I'm leaving today, from your tone it seems like it's very dangerous, don't know if there will be a chance in this life or the next to see you in women's clothing".

  Chao Xiao Yu was taken aback: "Are you teasing me?"

  "I'm serious, it's all gone, how could I deceive you?" Chen Jiu looked at Chao Xiaoyu's eyes very seriously.

  "Hold on a minute," said Chao Xiao Yu as he got up, "I'll go change my clothes."

  Watching Zhao Xiao Yu running towards the backyard, Chen Jiu revealed a sly smile: "You disturbed me last night, now it's my turn to tease you today, this makes us even".

  After finishing speaking, Chen Jiuhurryingly picked up the package in his hand and rushed to the direction of the college without having breakfast.

  It has to be said that this world is quite wonderful. Every world has its own similarities, such as food. There's actually youtiao and doujiang here.

  He drank two bowls of soy milk and grabbed a few fried dough sticks, Chen Jiuyi leisurely walked towards the direction of Qingyang Academy.

  He stuffed the last piece of fried dough into his mouth and walked to the front gate, his eyes lit up instantly: "Are you all here? Am I the last one to arrive?"

  "Brother Chen, you're really late," said Liu Yi, who was also the classmate that had a fight with Chen Jiu yesterday.

  The entire team has more than thirty people, and as many as twenty of them are students from Class A.

  Looking at Liu Yi's lazy appearance, Chen Jiu walked over and stood in front of him: "What's the use of coming early, isn't it still waiting? How was yesterday, who did you knock down from the stage?"

  Liu Yi shook his head: "It's not easy to win, and those who can confidently guard the stage are not many, just like you, absolutely formidable, I'm not a match, in the end I think it's better to guard the stage, wait for all the big masters to go on stage, and then little brother will take advantage of the situation".

  Taking a look at Liu Yi, Chen Jiu walked away: "What a great master, your methods are absolutely good, don't be too modest, excessive humility is arrogance".

  "Brother Chen, you really made a big show of yourself yesterday!" Chen Yi didn't know where he had slipped to and was now standing beside Chen Jiu.

  "Oh, really?"

  "That domineering punch of yours actually stunned all of us. To be honest, are you confident in this training?"

  Chen Jiu glanced at Chen Yi, looking up at the sun in the sky: "What's the point of having a grip? People live, not everything has to be done with a grip. What's the meaning of that? People have to do a few things without a grip to remind themselves that they're not omnipotent."

  Chen Yi was stunned for a moment: "This is probably the difference between us two."

  Looking at Chen Jiuman's careless expression, Chen Yi said: "Ninth brother, have you ever thought of forming a team?"

  "You want to form a small clique?" Chen Jiu laughed.

  "Has it ever occurred to you?" Chen Yi asked further.

  "No, nor is it necessary. With my abilities, I will definitely be able to get out of this alive. Everyone else except myself is just a burden." Chen Jiu said with a serious tone after finishing his smile.

  Chen Yi's mouth twitched, wanting to win over Chen Jiu, but the idea of forming a team couldn't be expressed, it was all superfluous, what qualifications did he have to speak up?

  "Since Brother Chen is so confident, then I won't disturb him anymore. I still need to go ask other people."

  "Go on, go on, after all, you can only rely on yourself at critical moments, teammates are for sale." Chen Jiu said jokingly as he looked at Chen Yi's back.

  "It's better to have something than nothing." Chen Yi's footsteps paused.

  Just as he finished speaking, an old man with a white beard walked out of the academy. The old man had a ruddy complexion and light footsteps, obviously having martial arts skills on him.

  "Is everyone here?" The old man's voice was loud and clear.

  "We're all set." everyone chimed in unison.

  The old man nodded, glanced at Chen Jiu who was wearing a purple robe, and said, "Then let's set off."

  There is no car and no horse, apparently the journey from here is not far.

  But soon everyone found out they were wrong, it wasn't very far, but extremely far.

  Fortunately, everyone has a martial arts cultivation on their body, and no one said anything opposing along the way.

  Chen Ji walked alone at the front of the team, occasionally running to one side to take a look at the strange flowers and grasses, then picking one off and lightly smelling it: "It really smells good."

  "Everyone else is too far away on their own paths, but Brother Chen really has a refined interest." A silvery voice rang out from behind.

  Before me was a pair of big eyes, with clear black and white pupils, a face as smooth as a baby's, with a hint of baby fat, and even a faint scent of baby fragrance on her body.

  "Li Shimei, you're not going to chat with them, what are you doing here?" Chen Jiu turned his head and continued picking his herbs.

  Qingyang Academy does not prohibit females, but women who want to study here need to dress up as men. As for Li Shimei, Chen Jiu still has some impression of her, after all, there is only one girl in the whole class, a girl with a particularly gentle temperament, and Chen Jiu's impression is quite deep.

  "That group of detestable boys made me feel uneasy with their gaze, and after walking so far, there's always a smell of sweat in the team. It's still better here with Master, Master is very majestic, everyone dares not look him straight in the eye. Sister Li has come to take refuge here." Li sister quietly followed behind Chen Jiu.

  Along the way, the two of them whispered to each other, and from time to time, a burst of loud laughter would erupt, causing everyone around them to turn their heads in curiosity.

  Behind him, Yi Xiao Xiao held a package alone, while Chen Yi and seven or eight scholars followed behind. Looking at the men and women laughing in front of them, he clenched his fists: "Bastard couple, bastard couple".

  "Hey Yee, you want to eat dog meat? What kind of dog is it? You've been talking about it all the way," a scholar behind them joked.

  "What's it to you?" Yi Xiao Xiao said irritably.

  "Hey, you, are you kidding me?" The scholar's face turned pale with anger at Yi Xiao's words.

  "I don't understand, and I'm not familiar with you."

  "You, well, well, Chen Yi, I won't participate in this team anymore. Let's go our separate ways, goodbye." After finishing speaking, he turned around and left.

  "Hey, brother, don't go," Chen Yi sighed, looking at the bookish man who didn't even turn his head back, then looked at Yi Xiao and shook his head helplessly.

  "Li Shimei, why is your package so big?" Chen Jiu asked in puzzlement.

  Li Shimei rolled her eyes: "We need a lot of things for our daughter's family, and besides, who knows how far this road is going to be? It's always better to be prepared."

  "Alright, alright, just for this sentence 'being prepared for any situation', I'll form an alliance with you and explore together." Chen Jiuxiao applauded in praise.

  "Really? Thank you, Brother Chen. My sister has a tent, food, and all kinds of snacks in this package, so we won't have to suffer from hardship on the road."

  "Sister, otherwise I'll help you eat some, look at you a girl carrying so many things, what if you get exhausted?"

  "Alas, I thought Brother Li was going to help Little Sister carry it, but it turns out Brother Li wants to eat instead." Li Shimei sighed and then her big eyes lit up: "But there are too many snacks here, first give you a pack of Osmanthus cake, do you like eating it?"

  Taking over the Osmanthus cake, Chen Jiu put it in his mouth: "Not bad, not bad, just for this Osmanthus cake, I'll cover you too".

  "What's 'covering'? What is 'covering'?" Li Shimei asked in confusion.

  "Covering is protecting, protecting you" Chen's ambiguous words.
