Chapter 7 The Grove (Part 2)

"Turinus, there is nothing to stay here, the teachers are driven away, and many young people from colleges in Macedonia and Greece have begun to join their respective camps of their own philosophy. Let's not stay here!' Agripa over there suggested.

"Yes, if you continue like this, your studies will only be delayed by bastards like Casca. Let's just go to the army. We are now all cavalry captains appointed by our uncle, so we will go to the Macedonian Provincial Legion. Mesenas is also there. He can take care of us and use swords and guns to create a future, so that others can't let others look down on us!" Tulinus said boldly, touching his bruised nose bridge.

"Don't be anxious about Tulinus, don't forget that we are underage. Even if we can take care of each other on the battlefield, this kind of important thing should be more cautious. We must let our parents know - Tulinus, you should write to Phillips and my father." After Leo said that, he began to get up and walked towards his dormitory room with the two.

The colonnades and doors and windows were all maliciously painted, either insulting the dead Caesar, or insulting Leo and Turinus, or insulting Agripa from a poor family but willing to serve the two of them, and was a shameless lackey. But Leo did not think it was offensive at all, so he pushed him away and walked in.

The furnishings in the house were indeed very simple compared to other classmates, because Li Bida required three people to be one place, and everything was done according to the rules in the army camp. Apart from the mixed wooden bookcases and tables against the wall, there were only couches, linen curtains and water jars left. The only decoration was a huge fish bone that Leo bought from a fish market merchant at one time. It cost eight Seths tres. It was hung on the beams of the roof. The expenses sent from the agent slaves of Li Bida in Apollonia were sent in total. The three of them only had a total of one hundred Seths tres. "This is the public. The three of you took turns to walk to the warehouse in the city to collect, and then the person who received the tent was the tenth mentor of the camp that month, responsible for all the learning, exercise and life matters."

There was only so much money, and three people took turns to go. I really wanted to not walk, but Li Bida asked so. Every time the three of them went, they would go together and expand their knowledge in the city. Turinus liked to visit markets and theaters, and he loved lively places; while Leo liked to go to libraries and gardens, and he loved reading and retreat; Agripa always liked to run to construction sites, temples, altars, arenas, apartments, and port facilities. As long as the city renovated these things, he would stay aside, observe carefully, and paint expensive papyrus everywhere.

Leo immediately sat at the table. He took the light of the grass core lamp and began to write letters to his father. The other two sat aside and waited quietly.

After finally getting the words on the board were engraved with words, there were several slaves standing in front of the door, looking dusty. Leo knew that the agent was his father's agent, so he stood up and said, "The day for paying wages has not come yet, and we should have walked there, and there is no reason to ask you to send it."

"It's not such a master. There is the fastest letter from the cavalry commander here, which is for you three, and important items sent there." The slave who led the lead said angrily after bowing.

So Agripa stepped forward, took the letter, opened it, took out the papyrus, and then he said with excitement and excitement, "The cavalry commander asked us to leave the academy immediately, Turinus and Leo returned to the city of Rome, and I will serve as the official captain of the cavalry, responsible for the escort!"

"Why, has the guardian said the reason?" Tulinus shouted, and took the letter directly over, with only one sentence from Li Bida in it, "I want to fight against all kinds of enemies. I need your help. The young men take up their weapons!"

Turinus placed the letter on the table, and then said that we had waited for the sound of the horn of the battle, and then we were busy tidying up the cloak, crutches, and short swords. Leo and Agripa were also busy seeing this, and then the slave who led the lead brought a box and said that the cavalry commander had something to give to you.

When he opened it, Tulinus took out the ring and Toga robe. The inscription on the ring was engraved with the words "Octavian". This must have been sent by his mother and asked him to complete the coming-of-age ceremony by himself at this moment. Leo also took out the robe and ring, which was given to him by his father and mother.

At this time, Agripa saw this and sat in the corner tactfully and continued to pack it. Because of his family background and family history, these things might not be a chance for him. However, Leo and Turinus took out a brand new robe from the box, wrapped around Agripa, and then put a golden ring with the inscription on it, "Vipsanius".

"This is given to you by my father, and he hopes that you can join his army in the future." Leo said happily.

Tears flashed in the corner of Agripa's eyes, and then he said that this was my greatest honor. Then the three of them put on Toga robe, "Let us swear like the three Horas brothers!" Then the three of them started hand in hand and put the daggers in between, "Support each other on the battlefield, assist each other in learning and art, and never betray friendship!"

The next morning, the three of them took out the surplus of their past money, went to the market to hire sedan chairmen and mules, and then came to the gate of the college and prepared to walk to the port to board the ship and leave. After learning the news, the little Casca, who was knocked unconscious yesterday, was extremely proud and hurriedly gathered dozens of companions, held up sticks, and followed behind the three of them with laughter.

"Do you want to escape? Tyrants? That's not OK. Look at your panic-wearing robes, it's ridiculous. Do you want to go back and mourn the tyrant? I carry the glorious name of Casca, but you are not allowed to do this. You all understand what you encounter below - your ship just can't go back to Rome, because the passengers will soon be killed by me, right in the woods in front, how about it? Turinus, if you kneel down now and suck my words like a scepter, I might also consider forgiveing ​​you for your life and selling you to the male prostitute temple in Athens." Casca kept laughing, blocking the front and back, surrounding the three people and mules and horses, one of them was still calling, rewarding me with Leo, I think ** his anus has been in a long time!

"Please don't do this. Now we are unable to complete our studies and are forced to leave. Even at the last moment, I hope to feel the friendship between classmates, rather than being in the struggle and hostility like the Roman politics." Leo turned around and said sincerely to Casca.
