Chapter 224: Week 10
I don't know if it's an illusion, Zheng Qing feels that Jiang Yu's attitude towards him has become very bad in the past two days.
During the regular meeting on Sunday night, because he was a little late for handing in the line chart, the head of the class Jiang actually dropped his homework and left directly, and the public scholarship student had to go to Professor Yi's office to hand in the homework in person.
And in the first spell class on Monday, when Lao Yao arranged the battle practice of male and female wizards, he and Jiang Yu were placed in a group. As a result, when he was still bowing, a stun spell from the opposite side smashed viciously, smashing the wizard directly to the ground.
Thankfully, they weren't practicing bondage spells.
Zheng Qing recalled this scene afterwards and couldn't help wiping a cold sweat. Last semester, the scene where Jiang Yu used a bondage charm against the silverback gorilla was a nightmare for many wizards in the class.
Originally, he wanted to ask Jiang Yu about how far her investigation had progressed, but in this situation, adhering to the principle that more is better than less, the young public-funded student finally chose to wait.
After all, he was also an adult, and he began to vaguely know that witches were always in a bad mood for a few days a month. After missing those days, their tempers will return to normal.
"Around the 20th......" Zheng Qing wrenched his fingers and muttered to himself.
"What?" Xiao Xiao, who was sitting across from him, raised his head, as if he hadn't heard what Zheng Qing had just said.
At this time, the two were sitting in a corner on the second floor of the Shushan Pavilion doing their homework. Since it was dinner time, the wizards at the front and back tables had gone to eat, leaving only their textbooks and quill pens to occupy their seats. So it's quiet, and any movement is very noticeable.
The cheeks of the young government scholarship student are flushing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye.
"I, I mean, today, today is Gu Yu. He stammered and worked hard for a long time, and finally found an excuse that was not an excuse: "Gu Yu...... I thought that after the rain, the insects on the island should be much more settled. ”
From the beginning of school to the present, because it coincides with the late spring and early summer, the temperature has recovered, and the silent forest is flooded with insects, and there are many troubles in the school. Behind the porch, a few hateful insects would fall from time to time, making the students miserable.
It is very appropriate to choose this excuse.
Xiao Xiao didn't notice the thoughts in his companion's head a few seconds ago, and nodded approvingly when he heard the words.
"Almost...... After the spring thunder, poisonous insects breed, and after the valley rain, they will converge a little after laying eggs. The doctor scratched his chin with the tip of his quill, turned his head to look out the window, and said thoughtfully, "Speaking of which, your oyster mission last week, as well as the task of missing bees, should also have something to do with the season." ”
Zheng Qing had regained his composure at this time.
"I heard that the school is going to cancel this year's spring hunt, is there such a thing? He decided to switch to a lighter subject.
"That's what the fat man said before, but until the school doesn't give an official notice, anything is possible. Xiao Xiao withdrew his gaze from the window and shrugged: "Didn't many people announce that they wanted to cancel the school hunting competition last year...... As a result, it was only postponed. This is likely to be the case this year. ”
"Cancellation also has the benefit of cancellation. Thinking of what happened during the last winter hunt, the young Gongfei student was concerned: "It's not so safe in the woods...... If the spring hunt is still held, I won't be playing this time, and the elders will lead the team. I'm rooting you on at the school. ”
The encounters in many consecutive games reminded Zheng Qing. He had already made up his mind that he would never compete in any more competitions in front of everyone. In the first freshman race, a big black cat ran away from him and slaughtered most of the prey in the hunting grounds, and the second winter hunt was even more unlucky, and the hunting area where he stayed was even distorted by the timeline.
"Haven't you already mastered the 'Yuanchen Guardian Spell'?" Xiao Xiao lifted his glasses and said in surprise.
Zheng Qing thought of the two dark red flame-shrouded phantoms in his mind, and couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth. At the beginning of last semester, Professor Yao emphasized the importance of the 'Yuanchen Guardian Mantra' to all students, but until now, few people in the Astronomy 08-1 class have learned this mantra thoroughly.
And even some of the people who learned, such as Zheng Qing, didn't feel what kind of power this spell really had, and what its importance was.
"I can't talk about mastering, I can only understand a little bit of the skin. The young scholar waved his hand modestly, and in order to prevent his companion from throwing books and smashing him, he added: "Actually, I doubt that this spell is really that important...... If so, Lao Yao should spend a little more time on it. ”
Xiao Xiao glanced at the public scholarship student, as if judging whether he was showing off or being really stupid.
"In terms of learning about magic, Lao Yao knows more than a hundred of you. Xiao Xiao finally chose to believe that Zheng Qing was not playing tricks, and patiently explained: "Many ancient magic have restrictions of one kind or another when learning...... Perhaps, let's find the true meaning of the 'Yuanchen Guardian Charm' for ourselves, which is the most important part of learning this magic. ”
"As for its power," Speaking of this, Xiao Xiao's gaze wandered on the desk for a moment, and finally chose the "Monster Book of Monsters" that was tied with a belt, and scratched its spine with a quill: "Just like this book, we must choose the right way to open it in order to really read the content of the book." ”
Then Zheng Qing saw that the feathers of Xiao Xiao's quill pen were bitten by a big mouth that suddenly appeared on the "Book of Monsters".
"You should touch its spine with your fingers, not with a feather. The corners of the public-funded student's mouth twitched, and he was slightly speechless: "The borrowing rules are on the book cover......
Xiao Xiao took a lot of effort to snatch his quills out of the mouth of the "Book of Monsters", and at this time, most of the feathers on the pen had been swept off, and it looked like a moulted turkey.
"I'm giving you an example. Naturally, Dr. Xiao will not admit his recklessness: "Just like I did just now...... If you only notice the superficial phenomenon, it will disappoint me. ”
Zheng Qing sighed silently twice in his heart, turned his head to look out the window, and planned to cover up his companion's embarrassment at the moment with silence.
Then he saw two white-robed wizards poking their fingers into the chest of a red-robed wizard in the small square outside the window. There were several students from the Nine Talents Academy standing around the red-robed wizard, but none of them stepped forward to help.
"Isn't that Nicholas?" Zheng Qing couldn't help but scream softly: "He's in trouble again?"
If memory serves, the last time he turned into a cat, Nicholas was what Alpha Academy called 'Nine Consciences' and 'True Warriors', and was praised in the newspapers for several days in a row.
It doesn't make sense that Alpha would poke him in the chest at such a time.
Three heads
