95: Chapter 44: The Legacy of a Distant Era 95: Chapter 44: The Legacy of a Distant Era Lin Yi hurriedly said, “Don’t do that, I’m actually more curious about how the Sports Student ended up fighting the Art Student.”
“Indeed, ‘quite interesting’,” Tian Bufan said bluntly, “But let’s leave that story for the dorm, tell what I want to know first.”
“Old rules, whoever knows the information and gets more help listens,” seeing that Lin Yi hadn’t given up, Tian Bufan directly delivered the final blow.
Lin Yi opened his mouth only to say wordlessly: “Isn’t that outright bullying?”
“It just shows you’re not confident in your own intelligence,” said Tian Bufan indifferently.
“Damn,” Lin Yi said seriously and sternly, “I am smarter than you.
Alright, go ahead!”
Tian Bufan: “…”
“Okay, quit ssing around,” he frowned slightly, “Hurry up and speak, I still have to go to gym class after.”
Lin Yi pursed his lips.
“Alright, alright, you win,” he said.
He briefly organized his thoughts, then told Tian Bufan about encountering Xu Shunkang and Xie Huayang in the classroom the night before, along with the episode with Xu Shunkang in the Cafeteria at noon.
After listening, Tian Bufan’s brows twitched slightly, and a playful smile erged on his lips: “Thinking at night is not allowed, Under the Sun you may think freely…
what an amusing summary.”
“He even helped you fend off that chef with the green bib.”
His gaze moved from the old kerosene lamp to Lin Yi as he slowly narrowed his eyes: “It seems…
you’ve been ‘noticed’~”
“‘Noticed’?
What do you an?” Lin Yi was perplexed.
Tian Bufan shook his head slightly: “Don’t misunderstand, it’s literally as it sounds, sothing about you must have caught his attention.”
“What kind of trait could I possibly have?”
“I don’t know, maybe…
great wisdom under the guise of stupidity?”
“That’s Liangzi.”
“Idiot, you’re the sa,” Tian Bufan scoffed, “The two of you, one feigns stupidity with great wisdom, and the other feigns wisdom with great folly, just figure out which one you are.”
Lin Yi: “…”
Tian Bufan patted his shoulder: “Alright, I’m off, rember to co back to the dorm tonight, we need to properly compile all the information.”
“Got it, got it~” Lin Yi waved his hand helplessly, “Ah yes, you saw the Sports Student and Art Student fighting with your own eyes?”
“Close enough, we’ll talk about it back at the dorm,” Tian Bufan turned and was about to leave.
Lin Yi sighed deeply and looked at the old kerosene lamp with a bitter smile.
Speaking of which, despite being just a kerosene lamp, the strange Thorn Vine patterns entangled around it, seed to signify it as an artifact from an extrely distant era…
“Lamps existed since the dawn of humanity; ancient people often used the lamp lit at night to replace the ‘sun’s’ power.
In many myths and legends, the ‘lamp’ plays a role…”
Tian Bufan’s voice lazily arrived from behind him, and for so reason, he suddenly stopped his steps to leave.
“That’s not a kerosene lamp, but sothing similar, and if you look closely, you’ll notice the fuel inside the shade is an unidentified substance.”
“One could imagine, though it appears to have been abandoned by ti, it might still contain so powerful force…
It’s a relic from a distant era, remodeled by the hands of olden tis, and has survived to the present day.”
Lin Yi was startled: “An heirloom of a remote era!
But isn’t the Security Guard holding the sa kind of lamp?”
“They still generate effect…
appearing flickering and faint, yet enduring eternally,” Tian Bufan stated calmly, “You should know, in a period only recorded in murals and runes, barely comprehensible, lamps dared to rival the sun…”
“Certainly overambitious, but undeniable is their brilliance, indeed they illuminated a dark Ti.”
As he spoke, Tian Bufan’s eyes seed to swirl with light, the old kerosene lamp in his view seed filled with stories.
“It’s really too fascinating…
An angle of history, hung on the wall in such a manner for posterity to see.”
Lin Yi vaguely understood, in this mont, Tian Bufan seed to have changed souls, being so knowledgeable about the history of the old kerosene lamp, as if…
he had seen the marks of Ti left on the old kerosene lamp!
In this mont, Tian Bufan seed much more elusive in Lin Yi’s eyes, and the impression he gave had suddenly deepened.
It was as if he saw Tian Bufan’s clothes fluttering about, as though the wind that passed the old kerosene lamp also brushed against Tian Bufan.
His pupils contracted slightly as that invisible wind passed Tian Bufan, it seed to reach him as well.
A breath that was ancient and profound, as if born from the void, slowly approached him.
Weathered, distant, mysterious, archaic…
He thought he saw an ancient Prophet on the peak of a mountain in a Foreign land, holding a scepter high like ancient deities chanting a great saga, as the dust of history blew by, individual silhouettes were as insignificant as a mote in a vast ocean.
It was as if he peeked through those ancient eyes into the clouds…
rely lifting his gaze a little, an indescribable, intense, chaotic unrest suddenly descended, engulfing him like a collapsing sea of clouds…
Just as that indescribable terror was about to strike, he shuddered violently, shaking his head frantically.
A solid feeling ca from under his feet, and he realized he was still in the sa place.
“What was that feeling just now?!
Not good!” He broke out in a cold sweat, and then suddenly realized sothing urgent, quickly looked toward Tian Bufan, and called out, “Terrible!
Young Master Tian, you better…
huh?”
