Chapter 620 The second uninvited guest after the year
When I returned to Qingqiu Mansion, it was already nine o'clock in the morning.
The flowers in the garden are in full bloom. The elves who have just drunk nectar and dew are all lying among the petals, spreading their wings, and lazily enjoying the warm winter sun. Several fox maids are scattered in the garden, carefully serving these delicate guys.
Zheng Qing did not see Su Ya.
This made him feel a little strange. During this period of time, the little fox girl should have squatted in front of her pansy and drove away the little earth dragon she caught to loosen the soil, but she didn't know why she was not there today.
Could it be that Su Shijun went out for some time and took her away?
Thinking of this possibility, a sudden joy arose in the male witch's heart, subconsciously speeding up, and wanted to take this time to discuss the development direction of the hunting team's new semester with her teammates.
Unfortunately, after he stepped into the front hall, the joy turned into nothing and became very nervous. Because Su Shijun not only did not leave the mansion, but was also sitting in the living room with Jiang Yu to drink tea. There was a delicate tragedy on the coffee table. Su Ya, who was supposed to be staying in the garden, stood in the corner of the room with a green peacock, with her body straight, and even her tail was carefully rolled into her waist without revealing a little fluffy. This was rare in the past.
Zheng Qing bet that he had never seen this bird in the mansion.
Peacock may be the first to notice that young children from the public paycheck entered the house.
It stared at the male witch, and its black bean-like little eyeballs blinked twice. The tail feathers that had originally fallen from the little fox girl's arms suddenly rose, spread out, and sprinkled a stream of five-colored rainbow light, which happened to cross the entrance of the living room and built a beautiful rainbow door.
Zheng Qing was startled and couldn't help but stop.
Taking this opportunity, Su Ya raised her head and chest, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Young Master Zheng Qing..."
"Okay, that's OK." The real owner of Qingqiu Mansion raised his hand and signaled the little fox girl to shut up: "He is not the real master... Everyone is acquaintances, just have a little bit of meaning..."
The little fox girl shut up in disappointment.
Zheng Qing carefully stepped over the rainbow door, and then the peacock put away his tail wings. The five-color rainbow light spreading in the foreground suddenly disappeared, and the world seemed to be back to the scope of male witch cognition.
Su Shijun's subtle voice came from his ears: "This is the etiquette of the old-school wizard family when welcoming a certain type of distinguished guests... It is not to welcome you, don't look like you are almost fainting."
While speaking, a figure stood up on the large sofa with his back facing the witch.
Only then did Zheng Qing notice that there was another guest in the room.
The figure turned around, revealing his gray hair and a slightly cold and hard face.
"Professor Monteria?"
The male witch had a little confusion in her tone, but immediately, he noticed the illusory feeling that seemed to be near and far around the professor, exactly the same as when Colma first advanced last year, and immediately woke up: "You, the great wizard? Have you advanced?...Congratulations, congratulations... It's really a happy New Year!"
His congratulations were somewhat incoherent.
It’s not his fault that he was shocked, because when Zheng Qing met this professor of Magic Literature at school a few weeks ago, he was still registered as a wizard, and there was no sign of advancement. However, after only one year, the professor suddenly became a great wizard.
But thinking again, it only took one night for Senior Colma to go from an ordinary registered wizard to a great wizard. Admittedly, her path was a bit wild. Using this as a reference, Professor Monteria, who is a top registered wizard, has prepared and it seems that it is not so difficult to advance to a great wizard in a short period of time.
"Happy New Year."
The professor nodded slightly, his tone as serious as ever. I wonder if it was because of his just advancement, Zheng Qing felt that his expression was stiffer than before: "I heard that you were attacked by a crow and may have suffered some kind of blood curse, so the old lady of the Jiang family asked me to check it out for you."
The professor's speech was as simple and direct as ever, with almost no greetings.
Hearing the words "Old Lady of the Jiang Family", Zheng Qing couldn't help but look at Jiang Yu, and then he realized why another guest in the mansion was present when Su Shijun met the guests.
Jiang Yu pursed his lips and said nothing.
"I'm so sorry, please trouble you." The witch quickly bowed and thanked the professor. The paper bag in her hand rustled with his movements.
"What did you bring back?" Su Shijun was very interested in the paper bag he was carrying.
"Oh, this?"
The young public student raised the paper bag in his hand a little clumsyly. Looking at the exquisite snacks and clear fruits on the coffee table, it felt a little hard to say: "It's just a specialty from the North District... salted frog eyes, fried frog eyes, etc... Is it difficult to describe the taste... so I'm a little curious... I want to try it for Dongdong..."
When Professor Monteria heard the word "dongdong", he moved his eyes slightly.
"Su Ya," the owner of Qingqiu Mansion nodded with satisfaction, turned his head and ordered: "Take the snacks to the study and let Dong Dong taste them when he rests... You two are not allowed to finish it!"
"Hey!"
The little fox girl agreed happily. When she arrived beside Zheng Qing, she suddenly remembered that there was a big peacock in her arms. She hesitated whether to put the big bird in her living room or take it away together.
"Don't worry, it won't run around." Jiang Yu glanced at the reluctant little fox girl, stopped, and added: "When you rest a while, you can go to the garden to find it stubborn."
"Okay, Miss Yu!"
Su Ya agreed in a regular manner, put down the peacock, took the paper bag from Zheng Qing's hand, tried hard to suppress his urge to jump, and walked out of the hall honestly.
But as soon as she turned, Zheng Qing saw her swaying a small piece of tail tip on the hem of her skirt while she was running.
Unlike the little fox girl, the big peacock was more polite. After being placed on the ground, it did not fly around. It just shook its wings and combed its feathers more neatly. Then it looked like a wealthy family, with its head raised and its chest raised, its eyes squinted, and paced slowly, walking slowly between the hallway, which was even more powerful than when it was held by Su Ya.
"Hurry up the time."
Professor Monteria waved and signaled Zheng Qing to get closer. At the same time, she opened the handbag at her feet. She first took out a single gold-framed glasses with extremely thick lenses, clamped them on her left eye, and then took out a stethoscope-like tool and hung it around her neck: "...Although there is a medical record from the school hospital, I think it is more reliable to check it yourself in this case."
"Cooperate!"
Su Shijun's subtle voice came from his ears again: "Professor Monteria is an expert in blood mutation in the school. If anyone can find the copper bean that disappeared in your body, he is the most likely... He is helping regardless of the risk of unstable status just after the promotion, don't be as rude as a child!"
