Chapter 22 Early Start of the Second Academic Year
Poseidon was finally captured by Su Ya and brought back to Qingqiu Mansion.
The little fox didn't have the courage to skip school and wanted to use Zheng Qing as a shield; but it didn't know that the young public-funded student also didn't have the courage to interfere with Su Shijun's education.
After all, he is not a great wizard yet.
So after walking out of the tree-lined road, at the next fork in the road, Zheng Qing held Poseidon in his arms, and solemnly handed it to Su Ya's arms, warning: "How can you not finish your homework? Be good, now that you have started studying,
You have to study hard and make progress every day, you know?"
The little fox stayed for a second and suddenly realized that he had been abandoned. He screamed and struggled hard to escape from the clutches of the black heart. But Su Ya quickly grabbed the back of its neck and stopped it from trying to escape.
Intend.
"You know the importance." The little fox girl glanced at the wizard, then hugged Poseidon tightly, twitched her ears, and left in a confident manner, dragging her big fluffy tail.
Zheng Qing watched her petite figure disappear behind the bushes, sighed deeply, turned around, and walked dejectedly towards the dormitory mountain.
He decided not to go near Qingqiu Mansion in the near future, because he had reason to believe that after today, there would be no people or foxes there to welcome him.
The melancholy of young people goes away just as quickly as it comes.
When Zheng Qing stood in front of the iron gate at the bottom of the dormitory hill and saw Mr. Ni squatting in the small hole in the center of the door, puffing away smoke, he forgot about the little fox's chirping complaints.
"Fifth Master, long time no see!" the wizard greeted with a smile, took out a few smoke pellets from his pocket, and stuffed them into the mouth of the little bronze beast.
Although according to standard time calculation, it has only been more than a month since Zheng Qing last left the dormitory, but during this period, he first went deep into the Dreamland to explore, and then entered the Black Prison World to participate in a shocking battle, so watching it again
Seeing Master Ni puffing out smoke happily always made him feel like he was in another world.
The little bronze beast in the doorway chewed cigarette pills, raised his eyelids, glanced at the smiling boy, and raised his chin impatiently. Zheng Qing was stunned for a few seconds before he realized what he was doing, and quickly took out his student card.
, got in front of the Fifth Master.
The little bronze beast's eyes flashed red, he yawned, and patted the ball under his paw.
Click.
There was a crisp sound from the iron door behind it, and then it slowly opened with a creak.
Behind the door is a familiar silver corridor.
Zheng Qing took a breath, walked quickly into the corridor, and pushed open the door of the dormitory at the end of the corridor - indigo carpet, six-poster bed at the four corners, an ocher-yellow desk in the center of the dormitory and four black armchairs around the table.
Familiar colors, familiar tastes, and familiar pictures. Although Zheng Qing felt that there was something missing, it did not affect his satisfaction.
"Meow meow!"
Like a puff of wind, a gray figure jumped out from under the desk and rushed into the wizard's arms, almost knocking him to the ground.
Zheng Qing came to his senses and realized that the person rushing into his arms was a dog.
"Edamame?!"
The young wizard shouted in surprise: "Why are you here!"
"Because your smell is the strongest in this place, so it stays here and won't leave." A familiar voice came from the balcony, startling Zheng Qing: "...it went to DK for a while before,
He was almost sold as a wild dog by Hu Wu."
While he was talking, a sturdy figure squeezed into the dormitory from the balcony.
It's Fatty Xin.
Zheng Qing subconsciously calculated the time. Today is August 23rd, the fourth day of the seventh lunar month, which is a Sunday. There is still one week before the start of school on September 1st. Why did the fat man arrive so early?
Immediately, he remembered that last school year the school moved the freshman trial task to before the start of the sophomore year.
I see.
No wonder the school hospital was so easy to talk to and discharged me so easily.
"Hey, brother scumbag, long time no see!" The fat man greeted the boy with a smile. The fat cat lay on top of his head. Hearing this, he also flicked his tail at Zheng Qing and greeted him perfunctorily.
Before the surprise on Zheng Qing's face could unfold, he was abruptly shattered by the name Fatty.
His expression was so distorted that the fat man couldn't help but look at him a few more times: "Your expression...is it facial spasm? Is it the sequelae of magic backlash?"
Zheng Qing grabbed the scalp of the edamame and twisted it subconsciously. The dog whined in aggrieved manner and stopped wagging its tail.
"If you call me that name again, I'll beat you up!" the public-funded student warned with a blushing face and gritted teeth.
The fat man immediately raised his hands and laughed loudly: "Don't you blame me...I'm not the first to call you this nickname. I think Squad Leader Jiang screamed it with great energy. You want to beat her up too?"
When Zheng Qing heard this, he suddenly shrank like an eggplant beaten by frost.
The fat man stopped when he was satisfied and did not continue to stimulate him. He turned around and squeezed back to the balcony, continuing to make noises, not knowing what he was doing.
"What are you doing?" Zheng Qing opened his tent, patted the dust, and asked angrily while covering his nose. Maodou obediently got under his bed.
"Arrange the books and magic materials used last semester." The fat man replied: "The place is too small and there are too many things. There must be room for the newcomers."
"What are you going to do about it?"
"'Sell it if you can, and you will always find a suitable market,'" the fat man shouted and replied, "This is what Shakespeare said, and it cannot be wrong."
"Did Shakespeare say such a thing?" Zheng Qing expressed doubts while lighting several cleaning charms to disperse the dust, mold and filth in the tent.
"It's almost the same." The fat man laughed, but did not give an accurate explanation.
Zheng Qing couldn't help but smile. If Xiao Xiao was questioned similarly, he would definitely report the source of that sentence, and even the exact page number and line number of the relevant version one by one. He would never be so vague.
After the curtains were cleaned and the bed was neatly remade, Zheng Qing lay on the soft bed with his head up, looking at the fine warp and weft on the top of the curtain, and finally realized what the lack he had always felt was.
"Where is my elf?" He jumped up from the bed and shouted at the fat man.
"Where's the store?" Fatty's voice came from the balcony: "The doctor has gone to pick them up... and check the accounts by the way. Didn't you go to the store all summer? The paper cranes that Fox Five complained about removed the drawers of several of us.
It’s all piled up!”
Zheng Qing felt a little blushing for no reason.
But his reasons are also very good.
"I have been hospitalized. In order to prevent mood swings, the therapist prohibited me from having too much contact with the outside world." He explained: "You should know this situation..."
"Of course I know, otherwise do you think you will have such a comfortable life this summer?" The fat man sneered and poked his head into the house from the balcony: "Speaking of which, your body is okay now, can you use your magic normally?"
Tuantuan, who was lying on his head, felt a little unsteady. He immediately raised his paws and patted the fat man's head. The fat man obediently raised his head to make the fat cat lie down more comfortably.
"It should be no problem." Zheng Qing thought of the ox that was tied into a ball and patted the Dharma book next to him with confidence.
