-------------------------------------------------- --------------------

I took out the map from the Ring of Space and carefully identified the location. Nian Bing found that, as Sangjie said, Lanmeng City is almost parallel to Ulan City. If you go directly to Oran City, the capital of the Oran Empire, from here, you must If you want to go through Wulan City, this is the shortest distance, and if you go to Lanmeng City, you need to take a detour, but in order to avoid being affected by the war, it is obviously the best choice to go to Lanmeng City now. Anyway, Luo Rou's wedding will not be held in two years, and there is plenty of time, so I decided to stay in Lanmeng City for a while, and use this time to practice magic and deepen my culinary skills by the way. Through the sparring with Minghui, Nian Bing has a certain understanding of the Xuanyu hand that breaks the water and protects the face. Although he cannot do the special practice method of the Xuanyu hand, but with the manipulation of the fire element, the heat will not affect him. If it has too much influence, if you practice more, you may not be able to achieve the effect of breaking the water and protecting the surface. Lan Mengcheng, let's go to Lanmeng City.

Thinking of this, Nian Bing put away the map, chanted the blizzard spell, and headed down the hillside. The road from Binglan City to Lanmeng City is sparsely populated. Nian Bing has a map this time, and instead of taking the main road, he just looks for a different path. He tries to use the blizzard to fly for a long time, but after all, the blizzard is not a wind magic. He tried his best, but he could only fly for more than an hour, but even so, the flight of more than an hour was enough to cover his two days' walking distance. Nian Bing found that this is a very good practice method, which is of great benefit to the improvement of his magic power. He simply gave up walking on his legs and traveled purely in blizzards. Whenever his magic power was exhausted, he found a secluded place So, use the magic scroll to defend, and once the mana is restored, continue on your way.

Relying on the speed of the blizzard, after three days, he finally reached his temporary destination - Lanmeng City.

In the distance, Lanmeng City is already in sight, perhaps because this is the backyard of the Oran Empire, and there is not much defense. The city wall is not high, only more than ten meters, which is completely different from the level of defense of Ice Snow City , the city gate was wide open, there were not many pedestrians passing by, and there were only four soldiers from the Oran Empire guarding the gate.

There is not much difference between the people of the Oran Empire and the Ice Moon Empire, except that they are relatively shorter in stature, and their hair is mainly blue, purple, and black. The blue-haired Oran people are almost no different from the Ice Moon Empire, like It is extremely rare to see someone with blonde hair like me. Nian Bing strode towards Lanmeng City. Since he decided to wait here until the end of the war, he had to find a good and cheap hotel.

While thinking, Nian Bing had already arrived at the gate of Lanmeng City, and the guards were not embarrassed by his blond hair, and let him in without even looking at him. Entering Lanmeng City, there is a special feeling immediately, the whole city seems to be enveloped by a peaceful atmosphere, near noon, there are not many people on the street, but from their faces, you can see the ease and harmony. Contented smile.

"Little brother, are you here to sign up?" Nian Bing was looking for hotels on both sides of the street,

A strange voice suddenly appeared behind him. When he turned around, he saw a middle-aged man in his thirties looking at him. He was a thin man with an obscene smile on his face. Before Nian Bing could speak, He took the initiative to step forward and said: "Looking at you, you should be a foreigner. You must have come to our Lanmeng City to study. What do you want to learn? Do you want to learn martial arts? That thing is too common. Once you join the army, war will be difficult for you." Ruthless. Why don't you learn a skill and use it for a lifetime!"

Nian Bing smiled and said, "Do you have to be a student to come to Lanmeng City?"

The middle-aged man froze for a moment, and said: "Aren't you here to study? I really can't think of any other reason for a foreigner like you to come to Lanmeng City except to study. Lanmengcheng is known as the city of colleges. It’s not for nothing, there are colleges for various industries in our city, especially the only comprehensive college in the mainland, and it is the largest institution in the whole mainland. Although the tuition fee is a little higher, you can definitely learn from there. For the knowledge needed, young people need to learn more, otherwise, it will be difficult to learn after entering the society.”

The four words "College City" aroused Nian Bing's interest, "Then what can you learn from the comprehensive college here?"

The middle-aged man rubbed his hands, his small eyes showed the look of the target taking the bait. Although it was only a flash, he was still caught by Nian Bing, "Little brother, the most famous place in our Lanmeng City is Lanmeng College. That is the comprehensive college I just told you. There are dozens of the most popular industry departments there, each of which has a strong faculty. Depending on the industry, the tuition fee is different, and it is not rich. You can get in, and you still need to pass certain exams. If you can have a diploma from Lanmeng College, you can find a job that suits you wherever you go in the mainland. Of course, the exams when entering the college are a bit difficult. It doesn't matter if you don't pass the exam. We also have many small colleges in Lanmeng City, which involve a wide range of industries. They are by no means inferior to Lanmeng College, and the tuition fees are much lower. Sometimes, teachers of Lanmeng College will Go to these small colleges and take some teaching classes. How about it, which industry are you interested in?"

Hearing this, Nian Bing couldn't help but recall that Xue Jing asked her about the culinary art school she graduated from when she first arrived in Ice Snow City, and subconsciously asked, "Does Lanmeng College have a culinary art department?"

"Culinary skills?" The middle-aged man couldn't help being stunned when he heard these two words. He couldn't see that the tall and handsome young man in front of him would be interested in the chef industry, which has always been the bottom of the mainland. However, his reaction Soon, after a moment of daze, he hurriedly smiled and said: "Of course, of course, chef is also a very common profession. Do you want to learn cooking? No problem. In our city of colleges, there are only things you can't think of, no We don't teach it. How about it, little brother, do you need me to recommend it for you, whether it is Lanmeng College or an ordinary small college, I have a relationship."

Nian Bing smiled slightly and said, "Then please introduce me to Lanmeng College."

The middle-aged man laughed and said, "That's simple, that's simple. As an ordinary industry, the fees for the chef department are relatively low, but that's up to you. As long as you can pass the exam, if your grades are very good, you may even It is possible to get free tuition. However, this referral fee..." At this point, he rubbed his fingers.

When Nian Bing started telling himself about the academy, the middle-aged man already understood what this man was doing. However, he just arrived here and was not familiar with everything. Listening to his talk was very good for him. Seeing the other party showing his true colors, he couldn't help smiling and said: "The referral fee is easy to talk about, as long as you let me take the test, that's enough. But, does Lanmeng College recruit students at any time? Isn't there any special rule for this?"

The middle-aged man said: "Of course not. Lanmeng College is very special. No matter which department it is, you can take the test at any time. As long as you pass the test, the tutor of the department will arrange for you to enter the corresponding grade to study. The cooking department seems to be divided It’s five grades. However, I want to remind you that if you want to be admitted to Lanmeng College, you must have a certain foundation in the industry, otherwise it will be difficult to pass the exam. For this referral fee, I will charge you a gold coin Well, the price is cheap, with my recommendation, you can take the exam today, how about it?"

"A gold coin? You might as well grab it." Nian Bing said angrily. He only spent one gold coin to buy the kitchen utensils of Trap Tianquanxuan, and this middle-aged man is too good at talking.

The middle-aged man laughed and said: "My fee is very reasonable, and it is definitely worth the money. If there is no recommendation from me, you will have to wait for ten people to take the test. For every day of delay, you will have to Do you want to learn a lot less? Well, how about this, considering the fate of meeting you as soon as I arrived at the city gate today, I will give you a 20% discount, which is cheap enough."

Nian Bing smiled, "Cheap? Eight silver coins may not be a big deal to some rich kids, but do you think I look like a rich kid with my outfit? Besides, I'm afraid the rich kids didn't learn cooking skills either. A Silver coins, this is the price I can afford. No more, I'd rather wait until ten people are gathered."

"A silver coin? Kid, you are too stingy." Hearing that Nian Bing can only pay such a small amount of money, the middle-aged man's attitude suddenly changed, and the original little brother was directly reduced to a kid.

Nian Bing said indifferently: "You just need to say a few nice words for me, and it's already a lot to earn a silver coin by saying a few words. If you don't want to, then forget it, and I will find it myself."

The middle-aged man rolled his eyes, showing a trace of disdain, "Okay, one silver coin is one silver coin, but I have agreed in advance that I will only be responsible for bringing you there. If you fail the assessment or have no money to pay the tuition , I don’t care about it, and the money will never be returned to you. Come on, follow me.” Saying that, he walked down the street to the city.

Does Nian Bing really care about money so much? Of course not, he just wants to get his money's worth. Culinary Arts Academy, yes, if you study here, not only can you avoid finding a place to live, but you may also be able to communicate with some culinary masters. It is indeed the best choice for you to spend your evenings practicing magic. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but rejoice that he came to this city, and now he just hoped that Nalanmeng College was indeed worthy of the title of the number one college in the mainland, as the middle-aged man said.

Perhaps it was because Nian Bing paid too little money, the middle-aged man was too lazy to talk to him, and led him to the depths of Lanmeng City, walking, Nian Bing observed the surrounding environment . He soon discovered that although the middle-aged man was greedy, he was not lying. Along the way, he had seen no less than ten places with college signs. Although they didn't look big, they were indeed involved in various industries. Including casting, magic, martial arts, politics, tailoring, business, etc., even some relatively remote small industries have been involved, and the surroundings of these academies are also relatively prosperous areas in Lanmeng City, and some young people in the same clothes can often be seen Walking on the street, the logo on their clothes clearly stated the name of the college.

Walking from the north of the city to the west of the city, the middle-aged man finally stopped, "Here we are, this is it." Nian Bing looked in the direction of his finger, but he didn't see any signboard of the college. It was a very ordinary medium-sized restaurant. The word Home Inn hangs on it, and there is no one at the door.

"Here? You can't make a mistake, is this a college?" Nian Bing said with some dissatisfaction.

The middle-aged man snorted, and said angrily: "Idiot, who said that I will take you directly to the academy. It is useless for you to go to the academy without passing the assessment. This restaurant is the assessment point of the Culinary Arts Department of Lanmeng College. Go in. Give me the referral fee first, and I will take you in for the assessment."

Nian Bing took out a silver coin and threw it to the middle-aged man. He was not afraid of this obscene guy playing tricks. His body is not as hard as those senior soldiers of the Jagged Knights.

The middle-aged man tossed the silver coins in his hands, and put them in his arms with some dissatisfaction, "Come with me." He left a word lukewarmly, and walked towards Rujia Restaurant first.

Entering the restaurant, it was more lively than Nian Bing had imagined. The lobby of the restaurant was several hundred square meters, with 50 to 60 tables filled to 50% full, and the service staff shuttled around endlessly. The business seemed to be okay.

The middle-aged man took Nian Bing to the counter, and behind the counter stood a young girl who was not tall and only reached Nian Bing's chest. She was dressed in a well-fitting blue shirt without too many decorations, and looked very plain. His long blue hair was combed into a big braid and hung down his back, and he was fiddled with his abacus with his head down, as if he was trying to settle accounts.

"Meng girl, hello, I bring you a new student." The middle-aged man smiled and said to the girl behind the counter.

The girl raised her head. When Nian Bing saw her appearance, she felt amazed. The girl in blue had big purple eyes. Her eyes were quiet and cold. Not as plump as Xue Jing, but she naturally has a dusty air. When she saw the middle-aged man, her purple eyes became more cold, "What are you doing here? Haven't you been helping them at the Martial Arts Academy recently?" People? How come you have time to come to our side today."

The middle-aged man pointed to Nian Bing beside him, and said, "Girl Meng, it's like this. Today I met this kid at the gate of the city. He wants to enter the academy to learn cooking skills, so I brought him here."
