Chapter 95: Daxia’s capital, Tianfu!
Seven o'clock in the morning.
The high-speed train from Qinhai City to the capital Tianfu slowly left the station.
Qi Sui specially bought a window-side ticket in the "F" train. After piling his luggage on the luggage rack, he sat down and looked at the scenery outside the window.
Before the college entrance examination, he rarely had the opportunity to leave the province, so this trip was a good opportunity for him to appreciate the magnificent mountains and rivers of Xia State.
Just like a young bird leaving the nest, the world is about to unfold its beautiful scenery to him.
"Hey, hello, can you help me? My suitcase is a bit heavy and it's hard to put it up there!"
A pretty girl with a single ponytail and wearing a pink sportswear sat next to the seat and took the initiative to greet Qi Sui who was sitting inside.
Qi Sui just turned his head to look over, and saw a young man standing up from the back seat and said, "Beauty, let me help you put it on!"
"Thank you, thank you! The suitcase is a bit heavy, please go slower!" The girl quickly made way.
The young man chuckled, obviously not taking the girl's words seriously. He suddenly picked up the suitcase and wanted to put it on the shelf, but the moment it was in the air, he felt something was wrong with the weight.
I...I fucking!
How much stuff is stuffed into this small box!
But he didn't want to lose face in front of everyone, so he could only grit his teeth, tremble his muscles, and forcefully send the box up.
click-
The box was stuck near the edge of the shelf. The young man stumbled backwards with all his strength, and the heavy box fell directly on his head.
"what!!!"
The girl in pink was frightened by this scene and screamed in horror.
At this moment, a big hand suddenly reached out.
The box weighing more than 50 kilograms was held steadily in the air.
Everyone in the train looked over here.
Qi Sui didn't want to be in the spotlight, so he casually exerted force and the box was sent onto the railing. Then he sat back in his seat with a calm face, put on headphones and looked out the window.
"This brother has great strength. Are you a martial artist?"
The young man grinned with a hint of fear.
If I had been hit by the suitcase just now, I wouldn't have died, but I would have been injured for sure.
"Ok!"
Qi Sui nodded in response, looking as if he was unwilling to communicate further.
The girl in pink sat right next to him, and a faint scent of perfume entered his nostrils. Although it was not very strong, with Qi Sui's current sense of smell, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
The girl in pink wanted to strike up a conversation, but seeing the other party's indifferent attitude, she had to give up in disappointment.
Speechless all the way.
The Xia Kingdom was vast and rich in resources.
The distance between Qinhai City and the capital Tianfu is more than 5000 kilometers. Even with the current high-speed rail technology that can reach speeds of over 500 kilometers per hour, it still takes nearly ten hours to travel there.
"If I had known earlier, I would have taken a plane. Gu Xiyue's private plane should have arrived in Tianfu a long time ago."
As the journey drew to a close, Qi Sui's tall and burly figure was squeezed into the seat, feeling a little stuffy.
Gradually, the sky outside the window darkened, the endless vast plains turned into densely packed high-rise buildings, and a prosperous atmosphere of a world-class metropolis filled the air.
An announcement sounded in the carriage.
"The next stop is Tianfu Station!"
It’s finally here!
Qi Sui moved his slightly numb butt, then took off his headphones and prepared to pack up and get off the bus.
Seeing this, the girl in pink thought that the opportunity to strike up a conversation had come, and handed a cup of fragrant hot milk tea to Qi Sui.
The pink-dressed girl smiled coquettishly and said, "Handsome guy, it's fate that we sit together. Thank you for helping me out when you got on the bus. I'll buy you some milk tea!"
Qi Sui hesitated for a moment, but still nodded and said, "Thank you."
He is really thirsty!
Seeing this, the girl smiled even more and asked curiously, "Handsome boy, are you also studying in Tianfu?"
"Good, you?"
Qi Sui took a sip of the milk tea; it was just the right amount of sweetness, fragrant but not greasy.
"What a coincidence. Nice to meet you. My name is Chen Qiuling, and I'm a junior at Xiaguo Film and Television University."
The girl stared at Qi Sui with her beautiful eyes and asked, "This handsome guy is so strong, could he be a student of Qinglong Martial Arts University?"
"Yes, I'm a freshman this year."
Qi Sui glanced at her.
Xiaguo Film and Television University is known as the cradle of stars in Xiaguo's film and television industry, and most of its students are handsome and beautiful art students.
The girl in pink does look good, but the traces of makeup are somewhat obvious. If she removes her makeup, she would probably only be slightly better looking than an ordinary girl.
"That's great! He has such a strong body and was admitted to Qinglong Martial Arts University. His kung fu must be very powerful!"
Chen Qiuling's eyes, which were covered with contact lenses, sparkled with excitement, and she took the initiative to ask, "Handsome guy, can I add you as my contact? We are both from Qinhai, and we can go together during the holidays and school."
The reputation of Qinglong Martial Arts University is still very influential, at least among the female college students in Tianfu City.
Some people joked that although Qinglong Martial Arts University has a male-to-female ratio of 9:1 and is a veritable monk university, the surrounding universities such as Shenhua University, Xiaguo Film and Television University, Tianfu Normal University, etc. are all their harems.
"can!"
Qi Sui picked out his own QR code.
When you go out for the first time, you still feel very close to your fellow countrymen.
So many times, the most active groups in college are not the various clubs, but the groups of fellow townspeople.
"Thank you!"
Chen Qiuling's eyes narrowed into crescents, and then she changed the ID "迎风雄霸天下" to "Qi Sui (a freshman at Qinglong Martial Arts University, from Qinhai City, very tall, very strong, and very handsome!)"
"Wow, the notes are so detailed?"
Qi Sui stood up to get his things and took down the girl's suitcase.
"Whee!"
Chen Qiuling didn't explain, just smiled.
Seeing this, Qi Sui felt a little puzzled and ran to the door to queue up before the train stopped.
As soon as I got off the car, the refreshing cool air hit me in the face, blowing away the stuffy and irritable feeling in the car.
"After all, it's a northern city, so the temperature is much colder than Qinhai City. It's only September, but there's already a chill in the air."
Qi Sui looked up and saw the blue sky, floating white clouds and warm sunshine.
The air and environment are great.
It made him feel much happier.
Following the crowd into the station hall, several middle-aged men immediately surrounded me and tried to snatch my suitcase.
"Hey young man, where are you going? Do you want a ride?"
"Take my latest model of floating car, it's fast and stable!"
"Come on, young man, you have so many things, can I help you move them to the car?"
"..."
It was the first time for Qi Sui to come to a strange city alone. He was a bit directionally challenged, so he took the initiative to ask, "How much does it cost to go to Qinglong Martial Arts University?"
Upon hearing the place name, the eyes of several middle-aged men began to light up.
newborn!
Qinglong!
He must be rich, and is definitely a big fat sheep.
"Young man, I'll give you a special price of 500 yuan, and I promise to take you to the school gate!"
"500?"
Qi Sui showed a puzzled expression.
It’s more expensive than his high-speed rail ticket that spans 5000 km!
Do you really think he is a fool?
Although Qi Sui is not short of this little money, he will not use it to encourage these bad practices that specifically target outsiders.
He was about to speak when he heard a familiar loud voice behind him.
"Qi Sui, huh? Come over here, sister!"
"Hey! Senior Sister Shen!" Qi Sui's eyes lit up slightly.
He immediately ended the argument with these middle-aged men and moved towards the girl with twin ponytails not far away.
It was none other than Shen Luoyan, the senior schoolmate who came to recruit students in advance that day.
Unlike Gu Xiyue's delicate face like a porcelain doll, Shen Luoyan's face is beautiful and has a sense of heroic spirit. She is carefree and bold, which makes people easily think of the saying "Women are as good as men"!
Seeing this, the middle-aged men couldn't bear to let the fat meat slip away, and wanted to chase after it to solicit customers.
Then I heard Shen Luoyan scolding in a loud voice.
"Fuck you, all of you, get the hell out of here. Every year when school starts, you have to wait here to cheat us freshmen out of our money. The subway fare is only 5 dollars, and you dare to ask for 500. If you don't get out of here, I'm going to beat you up!"
"Ouch, sorry sorry!"
The men knew they were in the wrong and did not dare to conflict with the senior students of Qinglong Martial Arts.
Even if they were scolded, they had to hold their noses and bear it, and then squat in front of the exit to see if they could wait for a few freshmen from other schools to kill them.
After scolding him, Shen Luoyan's expression changed very quickly. Her raised eyebrows softened, and a sweet smile hung on her face. She punched Qi Sui's chest in a familiar manner: "Very good, Qi Sui. I haven't seen you for a month. Have you grown taller? Have you improved your strength?"
"Senior, your strength has improved a bit, so it's okay!"
Qi Sui laughed.
With his current height of over two meters, Shen Luoyan, who is just over 1.7 meters tall, looks like a tiny kid standing in front of him.
"Sure, wait for a while. There will be one last high-speed train in half an hour. I'll take you to school then!"
Shen Luoyan swung her twin ponytails and sat on the chair with her legs spread wide open, staring at the exit, especially at the illegal taxi drivers.
She would never allow her juniors to be ripped off again.
Because I have been caught in the rain, I always want to hold an umbrella for others!
Qi Sui's gaze moved away from the girl's slender and graceful long legs, and his eyes met with some other freshmen who had been waiting for a long time.
There are not many, about thirty or so.
Most of them are boys, only five girls.
After all, due to the limitations of their innate physical conditions, women are usually much worse than men in terms of both progress and upper limit in practicing martial arts.
"Hello everyone, my name is Qi Sui, I'm from Qinhai City, and we'll be alumni from now on!"
Qi Sui grinned and took the initiative to greet these people.
But everyone seemed to have some social anxiety, standing timidly on their own side, and only four or five people responded.
As expected, most of the children who came by high-speed rail are more introverted, and you can see the restraint of being in a big city in their eyes.
This is also normal.
Those truly rich and powerful kids either have their own private jets like Gu Xiyue, or are local students from Tianfu, who naturally have a sense of superiority over the “country bumpkins” from other places.
However, this situation will be much better by the sophomore year.
After all, being admitted to Qinglong Martial Arts University means that one has superior talent in martial arts. No matter what their past life experience is, the future definitely belongs to them!
Qi Sui didn't bother to talk anymore, but took out his cell phone and sent a message to Gu Xiyue.
"Senior Sister, have you arrived at Tianfu?"
Soon, a two-word message popped up.
"arrive!"
A few seconds later, another message came.
"What about you?"
"I'm here too. I just got off the high-speed train and am waiting for Senior Shen to pick up the new students. After that, we'll go to school!"
As he spoke, Qi Sui also took a photo of Shen Luoyan's back for Gu Xiyue.
The other party was in charge of Qinhai City’s admissions work and should know Gu Xiyue.
"Oh!"
With just one simple word, the chat seemed to be over.
Just when Qi Sui was about to lock the screen, another message popped up.
It's a photo.
"This is our girls' dormitory, which is for two people. I heard that the boys' dormitory over there is for four people."
The photo shows a sunny and warmly decorated interior scene.
There isn't much information to see.
On the bed and under the desk.
The bed was clean and tidy, with a light pink three-piece bed set. The quilt was folded like a "tofu block". The table was also tidy, with only a purple water cup and a purple latest model virtual VR human brain interaction helmet.
And in the upper right corner of the photo, there are traces of a little bit of clothing.
It seems to be a small light pink inner cover.
Qi Sui stared at it for a long time.
I didn’t realize that Gu Xiyue actually likes pink and purple so much.
He was not surprised that she liked purple, because he had seen Gu Xiyue wearing a purple coat more than once before, but he had never seen her wearing a pink coat.
A psychologist once said that girls who like pink have a little princess hidden in their hearts. They are typical romantics, considerate, emotionally delicate and prone to escaping from reality.
But... no matter how I think about it, it doesn't fit Gu Xiyue's opinion!
At this moment, Shen Luoyan came over and asked with a smile: "Qi Sui, are you chatting with your girlfriend?"
"No, not a girlfriend, but a female friend, my senior sister Gu Xiyue."
Qi Sui explained with a smile.
Then reply quickly.
"The girls' dormitory looks pretty nice. I'll show you what our boys' dormitory looks like tonight."
"You guys pay the same price but you guys sleep in a two-person room while we sleep in a four-person room. You treat us differently? I give you a bad review!"
"Senior has picked up everyone. We are going back to school. We will talk again in the evening."
Soon, a word popped up.
"Oh."
Qi Sui didn't look at the message again. He put his phone in his pocket and followed Shen Luoyan with a group of freshmen. After turning several turns, they entered the subway station passage directly inside the high-speed rail station.
"Everyone, remember the way. When you get off the high-speed train, you can take the subway directly to school. Those illegal taxi drivers are taking advantage of the fact that you are freshmen and don't know the way for the first time to charge you money." Shen Luoyan yelled at everyone.
The subway runs very fast.
The passenger flow in the capital is really huge. Fortunately, the high-speed rail station is the starting station of the subway, otherwise so many people would not be able to get on at once.
"Come on, everyone come and take a look!"
Shen Luoyan pointed to the sign above the subway door and introduced: "The line we are on now is Tianfu Line 4, also known as the University Line. Most of the stations along the way are named after major universities, all of which are top-ranked universities in our Xia country."
"But there's a saying in the university circle that whoever gets off the Tianfu Line 4 first loses."
Qi Sui looked over.
These universities are the types that are familiar to parents, but it is obvious that the further back you go in the subway, the more famous the school names become.
One girl shouted in surprise: "Senior Shen, our Qinglong Martial Arts University is tied with Shenhua University at the last place!"
"Of course, our Qinglong Martial Arts University is the No. 1 university in Tianfu City!"
Shen Luoyan shook her twin ponytails, and a glorious glow could be seen on her pretty face.
The freshmen all showed excited expressions, and some of them who were timid straightened their backs a little because of the girl's words.
There were many envious and admiring eyes looking at me from all around.
The passengers on this subway are mostly students from various universities, and there is no doubt that Qinglong Martial Arts University is the martial arts temple that many people have longed to attend since childhood.
Qi Sui's face was full of strange expressions.
Sure enough, when you go out, you have to give yourself an identity.
The subway journey takes half an hour.
There were fewer and fewer people in the carriage.
Finally, a loud female voice was heard.
"We have arrived at the final stop - Qinglong Martial Arts University and Shenhua University. Please take your belongings and get off the bus."
