Chapter 111: Acorns Falling from the Trees

Using 'little brother in Tsing Yi' to describe the mouse in the cyan vest, Jiang Daban is really the first person.

It's just that Zheng Qing didn't complain about this, but was quite helpless about the question asked by the witch.

How can he manage what the rats do when they are on vacation? And maybe the rats are having fun catching bugs when they are resting!

Although there is a slight slander about witches in my heart, these words cannot come out of my mouth.

Zheng Qing frowned, thought for a moment, and replied with a serious face: "Maybe they plan to save some rations for the winter? There are many insects in spring, and they can be kept for a long time after being caught, whether they are dried or pickled...... Eh!"

Before he could win the witch's appreciation, his answer was interrupted by the mouse in Tsing Yi himself.

Ding Dong, who had been watching the rat-bear battle from the side, heard Zheng Qing's boundless nonsense, and his anger rose from his heart to his guts, and he flicked his tail, jumped up, and smashed Zheng Qing's knee with a rat fist.

As if someone poked him with chopsticks, Zheng Qing immediately changed color.

"Eh?!" the young student gasped, looked down at the little thing at his feet, and shouted, "Are you crazy?

Ding Dong looked at the wizard with disdain: "The ledger is all in charge of the fox five, you know a winter melon...... I just want to remind you that time, 'what you know is what you know, and what you don't know is not what you don't know', don't pretend to understand!"

Listening to the meaning of its words, is there really a reason why they go to catch poisonous insects in the middle of the night?

Zheng Qing was also interested, and didn't continue to care about Ding Dong's ear hitting his knee, and asked, "What do you say? You went to catch poisonous insects in the middle of the night, didn't you just look for some snacks?"

Ding Dong's ears shook his beard, and his long and narrow face showed a hint of solemnity.

"I ate it, but I didn't eat much. It flicked its tail and explained in a sullen voice: "Actually, we went to catch poisonous insects because of the order of the ancestor...... The ancestor issued an edict a few days ago, asking us to clean up the five poisons that breed on the island, and the time lasted until before the Dragon Boat Festival. ”

When it came to the ancestor of the rat clan, Zheng Qing's mind immediately came to mind the appearance of a fat and fat mouse sitting on a small sedan chair, covered in folds. When D&K opened a long time ago, the Rat Fairy visited his shop.

Jiang Yu, who was standing on the side, was thoughtful and said in a low voice: "'After the Black Tide, the Five Poisons Breed', Professor Li said this to us in the last Potions class. ”

"Maybe it's because these rats can stay at school. Zheng Qing also expressed his speculation, and he felt that it was very reasonable. The number of the five poisonous insects is large, the size is small, and the magic resistance is quite high, and the wizards are extremely troublesome to clean up, so it is just right for the rat clan to clean it up.

Dingtone Ears obviously disagreed with the two witches and wizards in front of him.

"We're in partnership with the wizard, and it's mutually beneficial, you know?" retorted the little mouse in a sharp voice.

Zheng Qing nodded again and again, indicating that what he said was right.

Jiang Yu looked at Zheng Qing's perfunctory childlike appearance, pursed his lips and was slightly happy.

Of course, as a lady, she can't let others find out that she is snickering. So when Zheng Qing looked up at the witch, she had regained her usual cold and desolate appearance.

"That Faceling, how do we start investigating?" Zheng Qing put the conversation back on track.

Jiang Yu bit his lip and looked at him with some hesitation.

Zheng Qing made an exaggerated expression on his face: "No, do you want to investigate by yourself?...... Anyway, I still have a hunting team here, so you have to give us a little preparation for actual combat training!"

The witch finally couldn't help it and laughed.

"It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, so let's start today. In the end, she did not refuse Zheng Qing's kindness, and said her plan: "Classes on weekdays, time is tight, and practice classes on Friday afternoons, some people may be injured, and time is inconvenient...... So on Saturday night, we can quietly search until one or two o'clock in the morning. It will not affect the rest of the next day. ”

Zheng Qing pondered in his heart, nodded, and approved the witch's arrangement.

So he pulled out the Colt silver python from the gray cloth bag, spun it around a few times, and then the muzzle of the gun rushed up, pulled the trigger, and fired a shot into the air.

"Smack!"

A faint translucent light shot out from the muzzle of the gun, passed through the branches of the old willow tree, and grazed the tail of a squirrel that was sticking out its head to watch the excitement under the tree, and rose into the air.

"Bang!"

Invisible magic fluctuations exploded in the night sky, and the sound was very dull, like a firecracker exploding in the water. If it weren't for deliberate observation, Jiang Yu felt that he would never have noticed this fluctuation.

"What is this?" she asked the wizard with a curious look.

"A new contact method for the Crime Hunting Team!" Colt Silver Python swirled between Zheng Qing's fingers, and the young public-funded student showed off proudly: "The doctor just researched it...... We're planning to take some time to practice recently...... Shh

Just as he was showing off, an acorn fell from the sky and smashed on his head.

Zheng Qing raised his head and glared angrily: "Who is so unethical?!"

The gray squirrel that was jumping on the tree seemed to be a little more annoyed than him. It squeaked and screamed, bouncing around on the slender branch, its big tail flicking like a hot wheel.

Zheng Qing blinked.

He easily spotted the big tail of the gray squirrel, which for some reason had been scorched in a large area, bare, and very ugly.

"Ahem," the wizard coughed dryly, put away the talisman gun in his hand, and his face was slightly embarrassed: "Well, it's quite a lively little squirrel...... What a good acorn, it's a pity to lose it. ”

As he spoke, he bent down and picked up the acorn, and wiped it with purpose, wiping the dust off it.

Then he raised his hand and motioned for the gray squirrel to take it.

Just as the gray squirrel hesitated to recycle his food, Zheng Qing felt that something was tugging on his trouser legs.

He lowered his head—a hard thing to do when one hand was raised—and saw Dingtone's ears tugging at the hem of his trousers, tugging hard.

After noticing the wizard's gaze, the mouse in green raised his little paw and rubbed it.

Zheng Qing was stunned for a few seconds before he realized that this mouse was looking for him to ask for 'information fees', which was a condition that Hu Wu had confirmed when he gave him a paper crane.

"Not now," the young scholar shook his head very seriously, and refused the mouse's request: "We didn't even see the monster you said, and we paid for it just by a few words, and the fraudster wouldn't dare do it...... At the very least, you're going to show us the monster too. ”
