Die For Life - Chapter 498

Leyu came to the third floor of the Teaching Building of the Department of Guards, found the “Yaoshi Alchemy and Mentor Office”, knocked on the door lightly, and the voice of casting face came from behind the door: “Come in by yourself.”

Leyu opened the door, and white smoke surrounded by fog. Zhuyan’s office is very large, with densely packed and neatly arranged bookshelves on both sides, the floor is clean and dust-free, the trash can has no rubbish, there is no soot in the ashtray, but there are really documents on the desk.

Although the furnishings are rigid and singular, the office does not look dull: there is a lively dragon paperweight on the table, an endless picture of the glorious society is hung on the wall, and the curtains hold the rhythm of wind chimes. There are hundreds of paper cranes hanging on the white wall. There are a dozen glass bottles on the cabinet with colorful little stars. The cabinet is full of various trophies and medals, which are shining and dazzling.

There is a small balcony in the office. At this time, Zhu Yan, wearing a black coat, took a chair and sat on the small balcony. There was a brazier in front of him, and he was throwing yellow paper and white money into the fire.

“Sit down first, I’ll be fine soon.” The old man said, “Come in and close the door.”

Facing Zhu Yan, Le Yu didn’t dare to make trouble, and honestly sat on the guest chair-he noticed that Zhu Yan’s own chair was pure wooden chair, but the guest chair was all upholstered.

It is in stark contrast to the tea party that does not even give the guests a chair.

After a while, Zhu Yan ran out of paper money and closed the small balcony door. Leyu thought for a while and said: “If the principal burns paper money, I would definitely think that he is spending ahead of time.”

Zhu Yan glanced at him, then sat down and said, “Cha Huan is going to die again?”

It is indeed a man who is called by the students as ‘will sooner or later become the author of the “Cha Huan Zhuan”’. When he tries his words, he can accurately comprehend the subtext of the words. And this ‘again’ is simply the finishing touch.

This world naturally also has the custom of burning paper money. Sending blessings and sustenance to the dead is a typical symbol of civilization, and the Huiyao people also love flames particularly-they claim to be descendants of the sun, and flames are the manifestation of the sun. In the traditional cognition of many regions, flame is a bridge between life and death.

In the glorious ancient times, cremation was a treat for the best, and burning ashes was a funeral that nobles yearn for. Being poor is not qualified for cremation—after all, there are too many firewoods needed to roast humans to full cooking, and so is chopping wood. Very hard work, the poor are reluctant to waste on burning people, digging pits and burying it becomes more environmentally friendly and economical.

Leyu was not in a hurry to talk about intelligence, and curiously asked: “Who are you burning paper money for?”

“Richjie.” Zhu Yan: “A student you don’t know.”

“…” Leyu is not easy to say that he knows it.

Although it has been a long time since he heard the name, Zhu Yan remembered it immediately when he said this. Human beings are always unforgettable for their first time-the first man to die in front of Leyu is Richie.

It was his death that let Leyu know how dangerous his head of the Statistics Department was. However, it turned out that Leyu still underestimated the man.

“Are you interested in telling me about him?” Le Yu said.

“There is nothing to say,” Zhu Yan said, “Richjie is a little clever student. When he was in the imperial academy, he was not very serious in class, but his grades could be maintained in the upper and middle class. In terms of tactics, he usually participates in some less serious clubs, and he also likes to smoke… Well, there are so many students in the imperial court. If you don’t walk on the Great Tongtian Avenue, you have to practice martial arts to satisfy you. One’s own blood.”

“But he was lucky. At that time, the first emperor had not died, and the imperial court held a martial arts competition every year. When he was in the third grade, he was lucky enough to win the title of martial arts performer and was awarded the scorching sun medal from the royal family. He graduated as an outstanding graduate. “

“It’s a fluke to play Wu’s first name, right?” Le Yu laughed.

“But if he works harder, he will be able to graduate with a blazing sun medal as the chief student.” Zhu Yan was very dissatisfied: “The principal graduated with these honors back then. Rich Jemming has a chance…huh.”

“Later, he did not stay in Yanjing and chose to work in the Morrowind area. Later, I heard news of his death.”

Zhu Yan glanced at the balcony: “Today is his birthday.”

Leyu was silent for a moment and asked: “Is he an important student to you?”

Zhu Yan didn’t speak, and pointed at the back of the happily. Le Yu looked over his fingers and saw a medal placed in the cabinet. The medal was golden and round, and it looked like a bright scorching sun under the sunlight outside the window.

“That’s the scorching sun medal he won.”

Leyu nodded thoughtfully, and looked around for a week: “So, these decorations… are all your students give them?”

No wonder he felt that this office was full of all kinds of disobedience as soon as he came in. Some of these decorations are hunky, some are cute, some are bloody, and some are healed. The only decorations that fit the style of casting may only be the “ashtray without ash” and ‘Trash can without rubbish’.

Zhu Yan still did not answer, and stretched out his hand to pat the little black book beside him: “This is the notebook I used to record the student’s death.”

“How many pages did you use?”

“It’s almost running out.”

Le Yu was a little slapped: “So much?”

“When you live long enough, there will naturally be so many dead people you remember.” Zhu Yan said calmly: “It’s not just Richie, the students I have taught, they are all important to me.”

“Watching those immature faces become mature, watching them leave the imperial court with their heads raised, watching them show their ambitions, watching them shed blood for their ambitions, watching them become talents, watching them become benevolence… “

The old man looked down at the dragon paperweight on the table, as if thinking of something, and a small smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “As a teacher, the only thing I can do is not to forget them.”

The office fell silent for a while, and Leyu suddenly found a blind spot: “Wait, I didn’t seem to see a gift from a student in the principal’s office-the parrot shouldn’t be a gift from a student, right?”

“The principal never accepts gifts from students.” Zhu Yan said, “I remember the last time a student gave gifts to the principal in public, and the principal directly replied,’I didn’t ask you for it, why did you send me? But you have this. Respect for the elderly is good. In order to satisfy you, I ask you to get to the top ten in the final exam of this semester. If you fail to pass the exam, you will disrespect me. If you disrespect me, you will be miserable.”

It is indeed Chahuan. If Chahuan dies, Leyu guarantees that many students will send the bell on that day.

“But he did it right.” Zhu Yan said, “So he is still the Chahuan who has just graduated, and I am already half-footed into the tomb of Zhu Yan.”

“Everything you look at is memories; what you think about in your heart is the past; what you see in your eyes is regret. For people of our age, this is a sweet drink of poisonous wine.”

Zhu Yan took out a metal cigarette case: “Do you mind?”

Le Yu: “You are not afraid of students coming in suddenly.”

Zhu Yan thought for a while, put away the cigarette case, and said, “Let’s talk about it, what trouble has Cha Huan caused again.”

Le Yu said about the blood essence stone, and cast his face for a moment: “In other words, the principal’s soul imprint is already in the hands of the enemy, and the enemy is suspected of possessing a magic weapon that plays with the soul… No wonder you are worried about the principal, then What countermeasures do you have?”

“Even if the magic weapon is no matter how mysterious it is, it is impossible to assassinate the principal from thousands of miles away. If they can do this, then it will be useless if we think about it.” Leyu immediately said, “I hope you can persuade the principal to hide these days. In the imperial court, it wasn’t until we found out the location of the blood essence stone, or the black hand behind the scenes could not help but do something. Of course, the most important thing is to prevent the principal from attending tomorrow’s fairy palace party, and do not continue to deepen the soul imprint.”

Zhu Yan nodded, and Le Yu suddenly let out a sigh of relief–According to Yan Yi, although Zhu Yan usually listens to Cha Huan’s orders, if Zhu Yan goes crazy, Cha Huan will kneel down almost 100% of a second. Zhu Yan is the only one who can control the tea party, and even the Queen Mother may not make it easy.

“Then why are you thinking about the principal?” Zhu Yan asked suddenly, “For you, there should be a lot of room for you to change the principal, right?”

Le Yu was taken aback, and immediately retorted: “Of course I am now the vice principal. If I change to another principal, my vice principal will definitely be gone. Although changing the principal may not be bad, Cha Huan is willing to stand by me now. Here, why should I waste my time and change a principal?”

Zhu Yan nodded again ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and shook his head: “I will stay in the imperial court to look at the principal these days, but I won’t persuade him.”

Leyu was surprised: “Why?”

“Because he did the right thing.” Zhu Yan said: “As long as he stays in the imperial court, the National Salvation Association will not deal with other students; on the contrary, once he leaves, the National Salvation Association will give advice to the deceived teachers and students. .”

“But it’s obviously best for him to stay in the dark and watch the changes, in case the principal is really killed—”

“Then the other teachers and students are safe. The principal is right. The goal of the National Salvation Society has never been teachers and students.”

Le Yu shook his head: “But the principal clearly—”

“——More capable and more valuable?” Zhu Yan smiled gently: “According to your logic, can valuable people sacrifice low-value people to protect themselves?”

“That was not what I meant–“

“I understand what you mean.” Zhu Yan said: “You want the principal and I to believe you and believe that you can solve this problem by yourself, without the principal taking additional risks.”

“But why don’t you trust the principal and believe that he can solve this problem alone, without you needing to take additional risks?”

Le Yu closed his mouth.

“Forgive the stubbornness of the elderly.” Zhu Yan smiled: “We have taught in the imperial academy for decades, and have never had the habit of letting students deal with trouble. Maybe we are arrogant, maybe we are stubborn, but this is exactly the time. It’s wonderful. It not only leaves traces of thousands of gutters on our faces, it also leaves us with weather-beaten confidence in our hearts.”

“Vice President Qin, if there is nothing wrong, please leave.” Zhu Yan said, “I want to lock the door and smoke a cigarette.”
