Zheng Qing failed to catch up with Jiang Yu after all.
When he rushed to the astronomical tower, a small wind blew directly in front of him, which blinded him. This was rare in the warm late spring. The wind was small and fast, and the weather suddenly became gloomy.
, people suddenly feel like a storm is coming.
White willow catkins accumulated on the roadside, forming thin, winding white lines. The students after class were laughing and making noise along these thin lines, heading towards the cafeteria.
Zheng Qing sighed and turned back to the Astronomy Tower.
Others have finished class, but he still has a lesson on second-order battle formation theory waiting for him in another time and space. Compared with looking for traces of the witch, the most important thing for him right now is to find an empty room for time transformation.
And not surprisingly, Jiang Yu should have also gone to another time and space - the relationship between the two is like the distance between them at the moment, close at hand, but out of reach.
The rest of Tuesday.
From lunch to two classes in the afternoon.
Zheng Qing, like the past twenty-four hours, never found a chance to apologize.
This made him wonder if there was a 'Loach Curse' in traditional magic that could make people slippery. Otherwise, why would Jiang Yu always avoid every moment he tried to say hello?
It wasn't until after two classes on Tuesday afternoon that he had to temporarily suspend his plan to continue looking for Jiang Yu, because according to yesterday's agreement, it was time for him to go to Qingqiu Mansion for dinner.
Compared to several other neighborhoods in Beta Town.
The West District of Beta Town, where most of the residents belong to aristocratic families and aristocrats, has always been relatively quiet. Just like now, the pedestrian street of Beta Town is the busiest, but in the West District, Zheng Qing walked all the way, and there were hardly many pedestrians.
Qingqiu Mansion is located in No. 54, West District.
The stream in front of the door was clear and gurgling. Several flower sperms wearing skirts spliced with fresh petals were sitting in rows on the wet pebbles on the shore, laughing and washing their feet. They didn't look scared when they saw the wizard in red robes.
He even bravely waved to him, as if inviting him to wash his feet together.
"Thanks, no need."
The boy muttered and glanced at the wooden fence behind the creek. He was slightly surprised to find that the door of the mansion was not closed, leaving a gap just enough for a person to pass by sideways.
He hesitated for a few seconds, touched the haha beads on his wrist, and finally without waiting for the announcement, he drew out his rune gun, crossed the creek, and went straight into the mansion.
The small garden behind the fence is calm and peaceful, with hundreds of flowers of different colors vying for beauty. There are fox maids pruning the branches and leaves, grass sperm collecting dew, and the sounds of the little fox and the big elf laughing and joking from the distant window.
Zheng Qing breathed a sigh of relief, smiled to himself, and put away the rune gun.
After walking a few steps along the cobblestone path, his eyes suddenly froze and he unexpectedly found a rare two-leaf clover on the side of the road, which reminded him of the amber that Jiang Yu had thrown to Su Ya yesterday.
The four-leaf clover seemed to be a very good gift, especially the one in front of him with two stems. The wizard was inevitably a little moved, and he couldn't help but squat down and carefully look at the soft and weak grass.
Not far away, Su Man was walking towards him in a hurry.
"My lady is waiting for you in the study, Master Zheng Qing!"
After the head maid bowed meticulously, she immediately noticed the plant at the wizard's hand and subconsciously reminded: "Hey! Don't touch that four-leaf clover. Before Su Ya..."
puff!
The leaf touched by Zheng Qing suddenly bulged into a big bag, and then burst, spewing out a stream of liquid with a strong pungent smell, splashing sticky stuff all over his body.
"... She put a protective spell on all the flowers and plants she likes." The belated warning from the head maid reached Zheng Qing's ears. The wizard cursed in a low voice and stood up hurriedly.
A furry head popped out of the window, then another, then three more.
Zheng Qing vaguely heard small cheers - because the smell of the liquid was so strong that he was a little unsure whether the cheers he heard were the welcome of the great elves or the gloating sounds of Su Ya or Bose Dong.
"Ah, I'm sorry, but you don't have to worry--"
The head maid glanced sternly at the window - the five furry heads retracted almost at the same time - then looked at Zheng Qing apologetically, and took off the Dharma book hanging on her waist: "——I'm so dirty with my privacy.
, Bo Huan my clothes!"
The warm fragrant breeze blows towards your face.
Zheng Qing's robe became dry and clean again in an instant.
"It doesn't matter."
Zheng Qing waved his hand and smiled very reluctantly, "——Study room, right? I can go there by myself. Just go and supervise Su Ya to clean the floor. By the way, help check whether Bose Dong has finished his homework today."
The head maid showed a decent smile on her face, bowed slightly, and then withdrew on her own.
Zheng Qing looked down at the grass again, and finally gave up the idea of pulling it out.
When he came to the study.
Su Shijun was standing in front of the window, facing him sideways, folding her arms, looking thoughtful. She was wearing a long burgundy dress with backless suspenders, and a lifelike gauze scarf lying on her waist.
The butterfly is fluttering its wings gently with the witch's breath. The orange-red sunlight falls on the witch's snow-white skin, and complements the color of her skirt, making people feel like they have taken a big sip of wine.
Zheng Qing swallowed unconsciously, and his mind subconsciously drifted to Nikita that night.
The succubus seemed to be wearing a red dress at the end that day.
When she noticed the boy coming in, Su Shijun turned around and was about to speak when she suddenly frowned and looked him up and down.
"You're not clean anymore."
The first words the witch spoke shocked Zheng Qing.
For a moment, Zheng Qing thought that Su Shijun had turned into Lao Yao and could easily spy on certain scenes flashing through his mind. But immediately, he realized that he was still wearing several layers of soul protection magic.
Even Lao Yao couldn't easily spy on some of his secret thoughts.
So the boy resisted the urge to run away and tried his best to look dazed:
"What?"
"Have you touched anything dirty in the past two days?" the witch asked.
Zheng Qing immediately thought of what he had just experienced in the small garden: "Oh, it's a four-leaf clover in your garden. I accidentally touched it just now. Su Man said that Su Ya had put some kind of protective spell on it...
"
The owner of Qingqiu Mansion rolled his eyes very nicely.
"Su Ya's little tricks are not enough for the word 'dirty thing'." She angrily interrupted the boy's lengthy explanation, raised her hand and released a manifesting spell: "——No matter how long it takes, don't reveal yourself.
Yun Gou Gou!"
White light flashed.
Zheng Qing suddenly felt a chill in his ears.
He turned around and saw a pair of dark eyes staring longingly at him, and the owner of the eyes belonged to a translucent baby covered in pure white.
