Above the stars

As soon as Tang Bandit entered the house, the doorbell rang.

Tang Bandit didn't answer immediately, but waited until he rang for the second time, then pressed the answer button and said, "Come in."

Chen Tianqi walked in with a smiling face, looked at Tang Bandit and asked, "Are you angry?"

"Why am I angry?" Tang Bandit said with a straight face, as if I was really angry, "Why are you here? Where is the distinguished guest you invited?"

"Miss Qin left." Chen Tianqi said aloud: "After you went upstairs, she also left."

Tang Bandit looked at Chen Tianqi and said, "It took a lot of effort to invite someone here, why don't you have a nice chat with them?"

"I wanted to, but she didn't want to. You also saw it. I kept inviting her to sit in the house and have a cup of coffee or tea, but she stood in the yard and refused to move."

"Then what is she doing here? Basking in the sun? The light in our yard is better?" Tang Bandit asked.

"I feel now" Chen Tianqi looked at Tang Bandi and said, "she is here for you."

"Don't slander me." Tang Bandit quickly denied it and said loudly: "You have also seen that our relationship is average and there is nothing to talk about."

"This is not a slander. I thought she was here to trouble you. I challenged her before, but she didn't even open the door or say a word."

"We met on the road this time. I mentioned it, and she actually came back with me. But when I asked her to come in, she didn't go in. I talked to her, but she didn't respond. She just stood in the yard."

"I talked to her for a long time, and the total number of words she responded to was not as many as the number of words she quarreled with you. Isn't this why she came here to find you?"

"I'm not familiar with him, why is she looking for me?"

"Maybe she wants to confront you face to face. It seems that she is very concerned about this matter and is also very angry."

"Speaking of this, I have to ask you something." Tang Bandi sat up straight, looked at Chen Tianqi seriously and asked, "She said she didn't want to compete with you, and said everything I said was false. What did you say? Say, who do you believe?"

"."

Chen Tianqi smiled bitterly.

He found this question so difficult to answer. It was like an ex-girlfriend asking you whether you love me or her. When we fell into the river together, did you save me or your mother first?

Tang Bandit's face changed slightly and he said, "You don't believe me?"

"No, no, I just feel that Qin Shuang doesn't look like a liar."

"What do you mean? Do I look like a liar? Do I look like a liar?"

"Brother Tang, don't be angry. I don't look like this. I just think it's not a big deal. Why should I be so serious?"

"No, we must be serious." Tang Bandit said, "This is a matter of attitude."

".Okay then, I believe you." Chen Tianqi said aloud.

"It's very reluctant."

"No, no, sincerely, without any reluctance."

Tang Bandi looked at Chen Tianqi and said earnestly: "Brother Chen, I don't want to be serious about this trivial matter, but I am worried that she will ruin the relationship between our brothers. You know that we have to live in a small courtyard for several years." Year"

"What if there is a grudge between each other and we see each other all day long without looking up, wouldn't it be embarrassing for both parties? It would also be uncomfortable to live there. Do you think this is true?"

"Yes." Chen Tianqi nodded in agreement.

How did you say that? Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.

The two of them will live together for many years. If you don't believe me and I don't believe you, or even hate each other, then life will be difficult in the future.

Besides, since he met Tang Bandit, Tang Bandit has been helping him. In his heart, he is a brother worth getting along with.

"So, if we have anything to say, we'd better talk openly." Tang Bandi said loudly: "No matter what Qin Shuang tells me, I will never believe her. But as long as it's you who says it, no matter what Whatever it is, I believe you."

"Good brother" Chen Tianqi was moved and held Tang Bandit's hand.

Tang Bandit took his hand away and said, "You have a bad habit. Don't hold other people's hands all the time. You make me very nervous."

Chen Tianqi smiled and said: "Brother Tang, don't worry, I only treat you as a brother and have absolutely no other ideas."

"That's good." Tang Bandit said.

Chen Tianqi looked at Tang Bandit and asked, "Is there anything that happened when you hurried back last night?"

"There's a burglar in the house."

"Ah? Did you catch it?"

"Caught it," Tang Bandit said.

"These thieves are also stupid. They dare to steal even the homes of Bailu students and they must be severely punished."

"The punishment is quite severe." Tang Bandit said.

"By the way, the Tiandao Exchange Meeting will start next week. The delegation from the Os Empire has arrived in Phoenix City. Do you know about this?"

"Really? Where do they live?" Tang Bandit asked aloud.

Another reason why Tang Bandit likes Chen Tianqi is because he has a wide network of friends and can always find out all kinds of first-hand information.

"I heard he lives in the Ostrich Empire Embassy."

"I thought they would live in our academy."

"They don't have the guts."

"What's wrong? He's still afraid that we might do something wrong?"

"It's unlikely that an assassination attack will happen, but wouldn't they feel uncomfortable if something was put into the food and water they eat? They don't dare to take such a risk."

"Has something like this happened before?" Tang Bandit asked with a surprised look on his face.

"That's not the case. This is their own pettiness. Our Phoenix Empire must win with dignity and dignity, and lose with dignity."

Chen Tianqi looked proud and said: "I heard that they also lived in the academy before, but one player was not accustomed to the climate and had a bad stomach. Then he went back and said that there was something wrong with the food we provided them. At that time, citizens of the two countries were in There’s a lot of quarrel online.”

"Later, the major academies stopped inviting them. They stayed wherever they liked. Anyway, everyone still had to fight over who would win or lose."

"It saves a lot of trouble." Tang Bandit said.

If they live in the academy, they will be responsible for food, clothing and clothing, as well as their safety.

Entertain, that's what you should do.

If the reception is not good, then you are doing something wrong.

Who would want to do such a thankless job?

"Yes. Now everyone is relaxed. They are responsible for their own safety. They live in a place they are familiar with and just come directly to the academy to compete on the day of the competition."

"Yes." Tang Bandit nodded and said, "Do you know who they are here?"

"I heard that their Prince Philip led the team here. Their prince is also a master of cultivation. I don't know the specific list, and they have not announced it to the outside world."

"Then how do you know this?"

"Liu Chenghai's mother works in the embassy."

"Who is Liu Chenghai?"

"They are also freshmen of our class. They enrolled with us." Chen Tianqi looked at Tang Bandi and said, "Oh, you may not have any impression. Because you have never been to cultural classes and practiced alone with the dean all day long."

"It's okay, it's enough for me to know you. If you get any news, just tell me."

"Put it on me." Chen Tianqi patted his chest and said boldly: "If you want to know anything, you can tell me."

"Then I will trouble you from now on."

"Brother, why are you so polite?" Chen Tianqi said aloud: "By the way, I have to go home in two days. I have two days off during the winter solstice. I will go back to see my parents."

"Winter Solstice?" Tang Bandit asked aloud.

"Right? You don't know? After the cataclysm, although humans moved to Nova, they still used the Blue Star Calendar." Chen Tianqi looked at Tang Bandit with a puzzled look, then suddenly realized, and said: "I remembered, you are You who are from the old land, are you not living in the old land?"

The Tang bandit laughed and said: "For the people in the old land, eating meat is a festival."

“It’s not easy”

"But we also celebrate the Spring Festival." Tang Bandit said: "It's hard to survive this year, why don't we celebrate it properly? This is the only day that people in the old land value."

"I never expected that the birthplace of mankind would be in such a state of decline," Chen Tianqi said with a sigh on his face.

After Chen Tianqi left, Tang Biao thought that the Tiandao Exchange Conference would start in a few days, and the gadget he was working on had not yet succeeded.

So, he immediately dialed Lu Xiyu's video call.

No one heard.

Called again, still no one answered.

Called again, still no one answered.

Tang Bandit seemed to be carrying him on his back, and dialed over for the fourth time.

The video call was answered, and Lu Wuyu appeared on the virtual screen with disheveled hair like a fried lion, roaring angrily: "Tang Bandit, what do you want to do? Are you crazy? Do you believe I will kill you?" "

"Oh, did I disturb your sleep?" Tang Bandit said with a panicked look on his face: "I thought you didn't hear the phone ringing, so I called a few more times. How about you continue to sleep?"

He knew that this woman had morning sickness, and it was quite serious.

When I first met her, in order to remind her not to sleep in class, she chased her with a white tiger for most of the day.

"How can I still sleep after I was woken up by you? Say what you have to say quickly and put down your farts immediately. If you dare to disturb my sleep next time, I will really kill you."

"Okay, okay, tell me in advance before going to bed next time, and I won't call you so as not to disturb you."

"."

Tang Bandit saw that Lu Whisper was on the verge of breaking out and did not dare to provoke her again. Who knew if this woman would ride some flying beast and rush to Egret Academy to fight with her life?

"The Tiandao Exchange Meeting will begin in three days. The Ossian Empire team has already arrived in Phoenix City. I heard that many experts have come. The gadget we made has not been successful yet. There is a key point. The question stuck me and I have to ask Master for help."

"Say!" Lu Whisper said in an angry voice.

"Okay, okay, I'll take you to my studio now and you can give me some on-the-spot guidance."

After saying that, Tang Bandit brought Lu Whisper to his workshop.

Tang Bandit was a man who aspired to cultivate both civil and military skills, so while he was practicing breaking through the realm, he also did not forget to improve his mechanical skills.

He specially found a room as a studio and purchased himself a complete set of mechanical equipment and tools.

Lu Whisper also knew the importance of this assessment to Tang Bandit. In order to get a good ranking, he stayed up day and night during this period, dragging himself into the studio whenever he had time.

Seeing his brother being so motivated, Lu Wuyu also felt a little relieved.

Who doesn’t want his younger brother to have meat to eat? ——

When Tang Bandi came to Grape Courtyard, Si Yinchuan and Shen Xinglan were drinking tea with Dean Xuanyuan Mingjing.

This kind of behavior makes it difficult for the Tang bandits to understand. What kind of tea do you drink so early in the morning?

Don’t you have anything serious to do?

Oh, I'm really fine.

One is the grand master, the other is the vice-dean, and the other is a direct descendant of the Shen family, the head of the nine major families. They can all lie down.

Thinking of the responsibility and hatred he shouldered, Tang Bandit couldn't help but let out a deep sigh.

The journey is long!

"Good morning, Master. Good morning, Director of the Department. Good morning, Senior Brother." Tang Bandi greeted them respectfully and took the initiative to run over and help them refill their cups with tea.

Xuanyuan Mingjing nodded and said, "Go and work hard."

"Okay." Tang Bandi said aloud, and was about to go to the Star Reaching Platform to practice his sword.

"Tang Bandit, wait a minute," Si Yinchuan called out. He looked at Tang Bandit and said, "We are discussing the Tiandao Exchange Meeting. Needless to say, your senior brother is the absolute trump card of our academy. The number one in Hobudo cannot fall to the most reliable candidate of the Os Empire. What about you? What projects are you not participating in?"

"Of course I also want to be the dean of our college and win glory for our country." Tang Bandi glanced at Shen Xinglan and said: "In the martial arts competition, with my senior here, the first place is guaranteed to win, so I won't show off my shame. "

Shen Xinglan smiled and said nothing.

He knew that Tang Bandit's words might be flattering, or they might not.

However, he didn't care at all.

He really wants to take first place.

"Your senior brother bears such a heavy responsibility, what about you? You are both the dean's disciples, so naturally you have to work together." Si Yinchuan seemed to have a good relationship with Tang Bandit, and said teasingly with a smile.

"I just came to the academy not long ago, and it's unrealistic to want to take on such a heavy responsibility."

Bandit Tang first showed the truth, I am a freshman, how can I compare with my senior brother?

If I do it well, then I am excellent.

If I can't do it well, it's because I don't have enough experience.

"So, I thought, can you make a little contribution to our academy in the mechanical competition?"

Si Yinchuan looked at Bandit Tang in surprise, and asked, "Do you know mechanical skills?"

Xuanyuan Mingjing and Shen Xinglan were also curious. They had seen Tang Bandi's information and knew that Tang Bandit studied in the Mechanical Department of the First Military Academy of the Empire for a period of time.

However, that is far from enough.

Those who can participate in the mechanical competition are all talented students in this area.

They have passion, ideas, and strong hands-on and manipulative abilities.

The strength of those top geniuses is much stronger than that of senior mechanics.

Just relying on the three-legged cat's kung fu learned by Tang bandits, he ran to participate in the mechanical competition. This is a real show of shame.

With Tang Bandit's intelligence and wisdom, he should be aware of this.

However, he still stood up and participated in the competition.

So it proves that he still has hidden abilities that everyone doesn't know about? Is he a senior mechanic?

"I know a little bit about it." Tang Bandit said modestly.
