The classroom door was closed tightly, blocking out the biting chill outside the room.
The north wind whistled through the window, making the glass windows rustle, just like the mood of these young wizards in the classroom, trembling with fear.
The elf in gray uniform dragged a pot of scalding hot tea, slid down from the ceiling, flapped his wings, landed on the lecture table, and silently helped the professor fill the water glass.
Lao Yao picked up the cup, took a sip, and sighed with satisfaction.
"The tea in the classroom still tastes just right." The professor rubbed the tea cup in his hand, walked leisurely on the podium, and murmured to everyone: "I'm used to staying in school, go somewhere else to get used to it."
I’m not convinced...I feel like drinking water doesn’t taste right.”
In the hall, the young wizards from Astronomy Class 08-1 finally calmed down their sadness, opened their eyes wide, and exchanged glances with each other. The information revealed in Professor Yao's words aroused everyone's interest.
Where are the "other places"? What were the professors doing? From what Lao Yao said, he left the school recently? Are the other professors not in the school either?
"Old Yao..." Li Meng took the lead in raising his short arms and shouted in a low voice - in the entire Astronomy Class 08-1, or in other words, the entire Jiuyou College, or even the entire First University, maybe this little girl is the only one who dares to use it
This tone is used when asking professors questions in class.
Professor Yao raised his hand and pressed it with a smile, signaling the little witch to put down her arm.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, I know what question you want to ask." The professor obviously guessed the question that everyone was concerned about, and said in a relaxed tone: "However, according to my practice, before answering the question, I have to ask a question first...
…”
"When did he have this routine..." Zheng Qing couldn't help turning his head to look at Xiao Xiao and complained in a low voice. But as soon as he said the words, he regretted it - because when he turned around, he happened to see Professor Yao's pair of
Sparkling little eyes.
"Zheng Qing!" the professor yelled angrily: "Our Merlin Medal winner and a publicly funded student of Jiuyou College, it sounds like you are eager to speak..."
The eyes of other people in the classroom turned back and looked at the young public-funded student, their eyes full of pity.
Zheng Qing stood up with a sad face, but stopped talking.
Now that Lao Yao has lifted him up, he will definitely not be able to sit down safely without saying a few words. Let’s just listen to what his problem is first - fortunately, we are all adults, so we don’t have to stand in the corner.
Call parents to deal with internal conflicts in the classroom.
"How much do you know about the resurgence of silence?" Unexpectedly, Lao Yao's question was very simple. Even Zheng Qing, who had just entered the wizarding world for more than two months, had a certain understanding of this issue.
Hearing Lao Yao's question, Zheng Qing breathed a sigh of relief. In addition to the daily influence of Dr. Xiao, he had also heard Dr. Duzem from the Institute of Abnormal Biology talk about this natural phenomenon.
"The silent return tide is a unique natural phenomenon on Phuket Island."
"Every year at the end of winter and early spring, around the time of the Forbidden Demon Festival, when the Soul-Returning Poplar shoots out its first buds, the fattened rays swimming in the deep sea will swim along the wide and calm Silent River.
Travel upstream until you reach the depths of the silent forest."
"The monsters in the Silent Forest that have slept all winter are already hungry and are waiting on both sides of the Silent River to hunt the migrating fish... From the downstream to the upstream, for almost a month, the Silent River is dark.
Red."
"Because this phenomenon occurs in the silent forest, and the fish continue to return like a tide, it is called the 'silent return tide'... There is also a saying that because amphioxus cannot speak and can only migrate silently,
That’s why it’s called the silent resurgence.”
After explaining, Zheng Qing looked at the professor hesitantly, wondering if he could sit down now.
"Very good, very good!" Lao Yao put down the tea cup in his hand, clapped his hands a few times, and praised repeatedly: "If I hadn't done some research on transfiguration, I almost thought you and Xiao Xiao had changed identities..."
This joke is not funny at all.
Zheng Qing twitched the corner of his mouth, thinking that he should take care of the face of the beetle head on the podium.
"However, although the explanation is relatively clear, there is no credit reward." Old Yao waved his hand and motioned for Zheng Qing to sit down. At the same time, he turned to look at the others: "Everyone knows that this year's resurgence of silence came much earlier than in previous years.
, what impact do you think this has?”
Everyone in the hall looked at each other, but no one spoke.
"It doesn't matter, you can speak freely... If you are not sure, you can try divination and see what you can figure out." Old Yao looked at everyone encouragingly, as if he didn't care that a lot of time in his spell class had been wasted.
.
As soon as the professor finished speaking, there was a loud crashing sound in the classroom.
Crystal balls, tarot cards, amulets, yarrow, tortoise shells, copper coins, etc., a variety of divination tools appeared one after another. The students took them out of their bags, and they all frowned and calculated quickly on the scratch paper.
.
"There is no need for a process. The process is too cumbersome and we don't have that much time."
"You don't need data either... You can use your own data for calculations, but there is no need to share your data. Although I don't want to discourage you, I don't think your data has much reference significance for reality. Of course, it can be used for trend calculations.
, barely enough is enough.”
"The first one to give a valid answer will be awarded a credit..."
Before Lao Yao finished speaking, Xiao Xiao, who was sitting in the back row of the classroom, stood up. Just a few seconds behind him, Elena also raised her arms.
Zheng Qing bit the penholder and squinted at Dr. Xiao's profile, wondering whether to poke his waist or his legs.
Xiao Xiao calmly moved a few steps towards the window to avoid the possible attack range of Zheng Qing's pen.
"Okay, okay, classmate Xiao Xiao has stood up." Lao Yao shouted, nodding to Elena at the same time: "And classmate Qiong... Well, which one of you two comes first?"
There was a sigh in the classroom - sometimes, the world is so unfair.
Xiao Xiao adjusted his glasses and heard a faint threat from someone beside him. Finally he sighed: "Ladies first, let Elena come first, professor."
"No, Professor. Xiao Xiao is faster than me...and he has already stood up." Elena rejected Xiao Xiao's humility and half-jokingly pointed at Xiao Xiao's current state.
Old Yao crossed his arms and glanced back and forth between the two fortune tellers several times before finally naming the doctor: "Then Xiao Xiao, according to my requirements, he is the fastest."
In the back row of the classroom, Zheng Qing sighed in disappointment.
He turned his head and looked at the corner on the other side. Elena had lowered her head again and began to put away the tarot cards at hand.
