Chapter 169 Academy Past
Back in the yard, Dahua was a little hungry and started to nibble on the weeds on the ground. Xuyuan ignored it, hoping that it would not poop everywhere.
He pushed open the gate, locked it from the outside, walked to the big tree, climbed up, jumped down from the wall, and landed safely.
Calculating the time it takes to get from the mountains to the county town, it's still early. I can only wait for a while and can't go back too early. I can only sit down on the steps in front of the house and lean against the railing.
He definitely couldn't go into the house, as it wasn't his own. He could go into the kitchen, but there was nothing inside except a large and a small stove, cobwebs all over the walls, and a rusty pot. The space was narrow and dusty. Xu Yuan didn't want to stay there, so it would be more comfortable to sit at the door.
Sitting like this, he suddenly felt a little sleepy, so he closed his eyes and took a nap for a while.
The snow was not heavy at first, but it started to fall slowly. Dahua had eaten enough grass, shook his head, and then walked around the yard for a while, and then went directly to a shabby thatched shed and lay down.

Lin'an Academy
At this time, there were a few people sitting in the classroom reading seriously. It was just the break time after the class. The classroom was quiet.
Most people ran outside to look at the snow.
"It's snowing heavily, it's finally snowing heavily. If it snows a little harder, can we have a holiday?" A student said excitedly while standing in an open space with his hands raised to catch the falling snowflakes.
"You are going too far. Your home is nearby. You can get home in just a few steps from the academy gate. Why do you need a holiday? You can just go home casually."
There were two or three students standing nearby, looking at this man speechlessly.
"You don't understand, isn't the greatest pleasure of going to school the holidays?"
With sharp eyes, I spotted a timid person walking slowly in the corridor.
With a curl of his lips, he looked at the thick layer of white snow covering the ground, squatted down, rolled up a snowball bigger than his fist, and threw it towards the corridor with all his strength.
"Wow!"
Everyone who saw it exclaimed in surprise.
Luo Xiqing was walking in the corridor when he suddenly saw a snowball flying in front of him and hitting the pillar behind him. He was so scared that he stopped immediately.
Look straight at the person throwing snowballs not far away.
He angrily said, "Don't you have eyes? You must have done this on purpose."
"Oops, sorry, I didn't see you. Blame me for not seeing you."
"Why, can't you afford clothes at home? It's so cold and so thin."
"I have some rather worn-out clothes here. Would you like me to give you one?"
Luo Xiqing clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, endured it, and glared back fiercely.
Huang Shao and Su Bei, who came out later, heard the noise and quickened their pace to Luo Xiqing's side.
"What happened?" Su Bei asked with concern.
"Oh, my good brother is here, I have to retreat now."
"You Dabing, are you sick?" Huang Shao cursed when he saw the broken snowball not far away in the corridor.
I don't know if this guy is sick, he always picks on the poor people in the class to play tricks on them, saying some weird things. From time to time, they play a little bit, but nothing happens, so the teacher doesn't notice it.
Especially after hearing that he, Luo Xiqing and Su Bei came from an unknown mountain village where no one knew where they lived, he despised them even more. He could still pretend before, but now he can't even pretend anymore.
Whenever they see one of them left alone, they always tease him.
It's really annoying.
"I am sick, you can hit me if you dare. Haha."
"Fighting is prohibited in the academy. Be careful or you will be kicked out and have no more studies to do."
"let's go."
You Dabing turned around and left, taking his good brother with him.
Huang Shao was furious and kicked the railing hard. The railing shook and the snow on it fell to the ground.
Indeed, Lin'an Academy had clear regulations prohibiting fighting, and violators would be expelled from the academy.
Otherwise, if he had allowed that sick guy to play tricks on him like this, he would have been put in a sack in secret.
This rule was issued a few years ago, and it did not exist before. The reason is that students from wealthy families looked down on poor people who went to college to study. In their opinion, poor people should go home and farm, and should not go through the trouble of studying.
As long as he was in the academy, he would be bullied by others. At first, the poor scholar endured it in order to avoid trouble. The bullies thought he was a soft persimmon and was easy to bully, so they became even more aggressive.
Later, the poor scholar was bullied so much that he fought back. One night, he quietly killed the person who bullied him with a knife. He chopped the person's face to pieces and threw them into the cafeteria. The death was horrible and scary.
He put his valuables and the money of those people into his backpack, which he also left a suicide note in. He placed it on the table in the cafeteria, pressing it with a bloody machete.
In order not to cause trouble to his family, he set fire to his dormitory and burned himself. Most of the dormitories in the college are adjacent to each other, so once the fire was set on, the surrounding dormitories would also catch fire.
Fortunately, no one was sleeping very soundly, and everyone escaped with only minor injuries, a few seriously injured, but no one was burned to death.
That night, all the people in the academy were awakened, and everyone was trying to put out the fire or save people.
Some of the injured were carried to the cafeteria, and the result was obvious, another shock.
He simply dropped the stretcher he was carrying the person on, ran around in fear, and almost ran into the fire again.
The scholar, who was originally injured not too seriously, but had a knee injury that made it difficult for him to walk, was thrown down. He stood up and opened his eyes to curse, but when he saw this scene, the pain in his injured knee instantly disappeared, and he ran faster than the scholar who had run away earlier.
Some scholars could not bear to see such a bloody scene and simply closed their eyes and fell to the ground.
Some were crying, some were shouting, some were running, some were lying down, and in an instant the place became chaotic again.
Until the teacher from the academy arrived, he was also very shocked. After calming himself down, he was able to control the situation and calm everyone's frightened hearts.
The government officials arrived in time and the fire was gradually put out.
After searching for a long time, I found a suicide note in the backpack and learned the truth.
After this incident, the college was closed for a long time to rebuild the burned-down buildings.
When the academy was reopened, this rule was put in place and strictly enforced.
Anyone who breaks the rules, no matter where they come from, will be expelled from the academy and registered. From then on, no academy will accept you.
"My classmate, what are you doing? You have to pay for destroying public property in the academy."
"What's your name and which class are you from?"
"Run!"
Luo Xiqing heard that the scholar behind him was about to take out a book from his pocket and walk towards this side.
He quickly grabbed the two people who were still angry and ran quickly.
"Hey, stop, stop, stop!" By the time the scholar reacted and wanted to catch up, the three had already run very far.
"Why don't you stay here and wait for the money? You're not a fool!"
