Chapter 270

The 19th day of the lunar month, the sun was shining brightly.

After several months, Lu Ran put on his blue and white school uniform again and walked out of the house.

"Ugh ah~~~"

He stood at the entrance of the unit building, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, and stretched fiercely.

Time really flies.

Today's morning class was the last class before the college entrance exam.

"The little yellow flower of the story, floating since the year of birth~"

Lu Ran hummed a little tune, walking while kicking a small flower on the side of the road.

Petals rose with the wind, and as Lu Ran's back moved away, they slowly drifted to the ground.

Lu Ran bypassed the residential building and saw a tall figure standing under a large tree not far away.

Blue and white school uniform, a fresh ponytail, a pure and lovely face.

Only compared to a year ago, the girl had grown a lot, both in terms of inner level and physical level.

"Is your school uniform a bit small?" Lu Ran stepped forward quickly.

"It's okay, just wearing it for this one day." Jiang Ruyi smiled at Lu Ran.

"Let's go, we have to take the small path." Lu Ran held her soft palm and gently squeezed her palm.

Jiang Ruyi lowered her head slightly, a little joy rising in her heart, letting someone hold her hand as they walked out of the residential area.

Today, the school asked students to wear school uniforms uniformly; if Lu Ran and Jiang Ruyi wore hats and masks again, it would be equivalent to saying "there is no silver three hundred taels here."

The two simply didn't fully arm themselves.

Fortunately, there weren't many people in Rain Alley City, and the two chose desolate areas, so the journey was quite peaceful.

Until a few streets later, in a deserted alley, Lu Ran suddenly said:

"Ruyi, I have something to tell you."

"Mm?" Jiang Ruyi turned to look at Lu Ran, a bad premonition in her heart.

Every night before going to sleep, the two would exchange text messages.

He didn't say it on the phone, but wanted to say it face-to-face; it must be a very important matter.

Lu Ran: "Lord Fairy Sheep summoned me over."

Jiang Ruyi's heart stirred, and she probed: "Pilgrimage?"

"Yes." Lu Ran nodded, "Lord Fairy Sheep is summoning me over now; I pleaded for a while, after all, I still have to take the college entrance exam.

After the 15th of next month, I have to go."

Jiang Ruyi pursed her lips and lowered her head.

Of course, she couldn't stop Lu Ran from going on a pilgrimage.

No believer in the world has the qualification to disobey the God's will.

And Lu Ran, once he goes, who knows how long it will be.

Jiang Ruyi had once stayed at the foot of the Yumen Pass God Statue for half a year.

"Sorry." Lu Ran stopped his steps and said apologetically, "On June 1st, I can't accompany you to the front line."

Every year on the 15th of the lunar month is the day of the college entrance exam.

And on the following June 1st, it is the last chance for candidates to obtain scores.

As everyone knows: the first day of the sixth lunar month is the annual day of worshiping Gods.

The Gods will patrol the human world and widely collect believers.

On this month and this day, the demons are the most well-behaved.

All graduating seniors will be organized by the school on June 1st to enter the demon cave and go to the front line to observe.

This is also the last lesson the school gives to believer students.

Students of the Mist Realm and Stream Realm can only climb the city wall to watch.

And believer students of the River Realm can apply to join the army and perform tasks under the leadership of soldiers.

Either clean up the piles of corpses under the city wall; or follow the army to push the front line forward.

In short, the school will cooperate with the military to let students understand the cruelty of this world as much as possible, provided that the students' lives are safe.

"The God has an order, of course it should be executed." Jiang Ruyi shook her head, "It's okay, I'll just go with them."

Lu Ran nodded gently, feeling helpless in his heart.

Of course, he wasn't afraid to go, but he couldn't go!

Lu Ran couldn't absorb a large number of demon souls in a short time; if he did that, he would very likely be exposed.

Once the demon main body kills its way to the door, that would be a big problem!

The Gods would also inevitably investigate why a certain demon main body was staring at Lu Ran.

Once the reason is figured out, the demon main body doesn't even need to do it; the Gods will personally take action...

Look at the current situation of the God, Lady Lady Wangquan!

She was banished by the Gods to the demon cave, Bamboo Sea, struggling to survive.

The Lady Lady Wangquan Sect only strengthens itself by absorbing souls.

Lu Ran possesses a sculpture garden, which can fundamentally shake the foundation of the Gods...

This nature is completely different!

Lu Ran absolutely does not believe that the Gods will let him live.

"Did Lord Fairy Sheep say what you are going to do?" Jiang Ruyi endured and endured, but still asked.

Before, when she was summoned by the God, Lu Ran had also asked similar questions.

At that time, Jiang Ruyi shook her head and smiled, saying how would she know.

Now, it was Lu Ran's turn to be summoned, and Jiang Ruyi realized she really couldn't help but ask.

"On the night of the 15th that just passed, I performed very well." Lu Ran responded, "After returning home, I reported the battle results to Lord Fairy Sheep, and it was very satisfied.

On this trip, Lord Fairy Sheep should want to give me some rewards to help my realm improve faster."

"Mm." Jiang Ruyi lowered her eyes.

"Don't be like this, Ruyi, I still have a month before I leave."

"26 days."

"What?"

"There are 26 days until you leave." Jiang Ruyi whispered.

Lu Ran felt a bit uncomfortable in his heart; in fact, this pilgrimage was facilitated by him.

As a human student, he naturally knew what the school would organize graduating seniors to do on June 1st every year.

Lu Ran naturally had to avoid risks and also needed a legitimate reason not to participate in the activities.

After he explained the situation to the God, Lord Fairy Sheep followed the advice and let Lu Ran come to the main body God Statue for further study.

"Starting to count the days now, huh?" Lu Ran lowered his head slightly and gently bumped her forehead.

Jiang Ruyi: "I... mm."

The girl's words were blocked back into her mouth.

In the deserted alley, Lu Ran embraced Jiang Ruyi and held her delicate lips.

Jiang Ruyi closed her eyes, her face flushed, one hand tightly gripping Lu Ran's clothes.

After a long time, Lu Ran's voice sounded in the alley again: "I'll tell you later.

Don't be sad, I'll try to come back early."

Just last month on the 15th, Jiang Ruyi solemnly stated that if Lu Ran had any major decisions, he must tell her in advance.

If not for this, Lu Ran might have really dragged it out.

People, indeed, shouldn't be too obedient.

"Who is sad." Jiang Ruyi actually had a time when she was stubborn, her face against Lu Ran's shoulder, "Listen to the teachings at the God's place more.

Cultivate with peace of mind, strength is the most important."

Suddenly, she raised her head, a smile appearing on her face: "When you come back, I hope it's the River Estuary Realm."

Good guy~

Lu Ran smiled: "You have confidence in me."

"By the way, you are going to take the Wu Lie River University exam, right?"

"Yeah."

"Then I'll wait for you at school."

"No, I still have a month before I leave, why start saying goodbye now..."

Lu Ran and Jiang Ruyi were late.

The advantage is that there were no students in the school blocking them, asking for signatures and photos.

The disadvantage is... uh, no disadvantage.

The always strict Li Yanzhu stood on the podium, looked at the man and woman outside the door, and smiled as she let them in.

No reprimands or standing in the corner; the head teacher just took the teaching pointer and knocked on the blackboard again.

On it was written a sentence:

"The suffering of the world is like this terrifying stormy night.

There are always people who will not wait bitterly for the storm to pass, but will dance in the rain."

When Lu Ran saw this sentence, he was obviously stunned for a moment.

This sentence was exactly a comment written for Lu Ran by the judge of "Lu Lu Tianjiao."

"This is the last morning class in your high school career." Li Yanzhu said in a deep voice, "Borrowing the evaluation of Lu Ran by Lu Lu Tianjiao, I give it to you."

Li Yanzhu's gaze swept across the only twenty or so students in the class and continued: "This world is not beautiful.

It doesn't seem like it will get better either.

This rain will only get heavier, and the thunder and lightning will only get more frequent.

However, your lives have just begun.

After graduation, you will go your separate ways; I wish you all to learn to dance in the rain on your respective life paths as soon as possible."

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The silent and sad atmosphere was broken by a round of applause.

The twenty or so people in the class also clapped their hands one after another.

Li Yanzhu smiled: "The training homework for this month is to prepare for the college entrance exam.

There is no demon crystal requirement submitted.

You can go to any demon cave to coordinate your team and practice tactics, or you can rest and recuperate at home.

When you stand in the exam room on the 15th of next month, you will get the score for this month's training homework."

Saying that, Li Yanzhu added another sentence: "Twenty points, full marks."

For a time, the students looked at each other.

The last homework of previous years was not like this.

Is it because Rain Alley City has experienced too much wind and rain, and the students have endured too much, that the school has done this?

Li Yanzhu: "On the 15th of next month, at 8:00 AM, gather at the school playground to take the final exam.

Absolutely no lateness, do you hear clearly?"

"Heard clearly!"

"Yes!"

Li Yanzhu nodded with satisfaction: "Also, on the first day of the sixth lunar month, the school will organize everyone to go to the Vicious Dog Village to visit the front line.

No evasion, no leave, all students must go, otherwise a large number of believer points will be deducted.

For the vast majority of people present, this is also the only chance in your life, cherish it well."

Several students responded, while most students remained silent.

Li Yanzhu glanced at her watch and continued: "Everyone tidy up your appearance, we will start taking graduation photos in a while, and it will be our class 4's turn soon.

Does anyone have any questions?"

The class was silent.

Today's head teacher was rarely gentle: "After taking the graduation photos, everyone can leave on their own.

Finally, I wish you a bright future."

Bright future.

It was these words again.

Only this time, no matter how Lu Ran listened, he felt a bit sad.

A dozen minutes later, the twenty-something people of Class 4, Grade 3, stood in front of the teaching building.

School leaders and teachers sat in the front row, and students stood on the steps in rows.

Lu Ran was asked to stand in the very center of the crowd, and Jiang Ruyi beside him had a faint smile on her face.

Today's Rain Alley City was sunny, with blue sky and white clouds.

It was indeed very suitable for taking photos.

With the sound of the shutter, Lu Ran flicked Ruyi's fingers and quietly held her hand.
