Zheng Qing was stunned for a second and immediately realized what he was asking about. He should be asking about the twelfth birthday gift given to him a long time ago. It had a silver watch case and brass hands, and it made a ticking sound when running.
Zheng Qing has been using this watch for six years, and it is always as accurate as ever, without missing a minute. And because of proper maintenance, there is no trace of rust on the case, so it always looks like a new watch.
But it only looks like a new watch - apart from accurate timing and a brand-new case, this pocket watch can't find anything different from other pocket watches - it can't even display on the dial like most other wizards' timers.
It has an anthropomorphic face that can report the time to its owner anytime and anywhere, and remind it of its schedule, just like Dylan's pocket watch.
Even that watch has a bad temper, worse than Dylan's full-length mirror.
In fact, Zheng Qing has tested the bottom line of this pocket watch more than once, especially after he received the admission notice from First University. For some unexplainable reasons, he used detection magic on this watch many times.
The results have been mixed.
Fortunately, in addition to its accurate timing and brand-new case, this watch does have other extraordinary features.
For example, Zheng Qing discovered another feature of it, which is that it is immune to detection magic. Whether it is the low-level manifestation spell 'Aparecium' or the high-level detection spell 'Jinjin Qiming', everything will splash on this pocket watch.
It can't afford any fluctuation. If this watch wasn't very meaningful, Zheng Qing would have wanted to experiment with the Karma Fire Spell, the Great Disintegration Technique, or throw it into aqua regia and soak it.
But what is frustrating is that through various testing methods - including asking Lin Guo to use professional alchemy tools - apart from being immune to detection magic, Zheng Qing did not find any more traces of magic on this pocket watch.
In other words, this watch can basically only be regarded as an ordinary timer.
Therefore, when his husband asked about this watch, Zheng Qing's first reaction was that he was asking about the time.
"It is now five forty-eight minutes and thirty-six seconds in the afternoon, thirty-seven seconds." Zheng Qing skillfully took out the pocket watch from the gray cloth bag, opened the watch case with a click, and accurately reported the current time.
.
"Need you to tell me this?" Mr. Wu glanced at the young public-funded student and reached for the pocket watch. Then he curled up a skinny finger and touched it directly on the transparent glass surface.
Zheng Qing's eyes widened involuntarily.
The husband's finger seemed to be passing through a layer of phantom, without being hindered by that layer of glass - Zheng Qing could have sworn by holding up Lin Guo's box of alchemy tools that they had tested the glass surface of the pocket watch more than once.
, whether it is chemical testing, magic testing, or alchemical testing, it is clearly proven that the layer of glass is indeed silica, but compared with the glass on the classroom window, the purity of the silica layer on the pocket watch is
It's just higher.
Zheng Qing blinked hard.
I saw Mr. Wu put his finger in, pressed it on the slender minute hand, and then used a little force to move the minute hand back. One grid, two grids, five grids, ten grids.
Each time the dial is dialed back, the pocket watch will make a loud clicking sound.
As the minute hand moved back, the scene around the two people slowly reappeared like a 'rewind' - the black hole reappeared, Six Fingers 'grew' out of it, the yellow raccoon dog and Six Fingers faced off, and Beauty Su swallowed a mouthful of blood and then
After knocking one finger back, her three fox tails reappeared, and the bull's head stuffed the horns into her head. The teaching assistant group and the mutated tree people fought each other. Su Shijun floated towards the full moon in the air, and finally sank into the moon just beside it.
In the temporary passage that emerged.
The traceback ends abruptly here.
"Well, it should be fine." The gentleman nodded: "The losses are within control, and those who should be taught a lesson have also learned a lesson..."
Zheng Qing lowered his head and glanced at the dial. The minute hand on the dial had been set back by almost twenty spaces, which was twenty minutes.
The pocket watch sounded like it was taking a breather. Its second hand swung back and forth between the grids a few times, as if it was adapting to the new time. And the surrounding scene flickered and trembled as the second hand swung back and forth, like a damp video tape.
The screen appears stuck.
After a brief pause, the second hand started ticking again.
And the surrounding scene has returned to normal.
In mid-air, next to the full moon, the temporary passage was opened again - if nothing unexpected happens, the red figure will come out of the temporary passage in a few seconds.
"Very good." Mr. Wu nodded with satisfaction, closed the cover of the pocket watch with a click, and then stuffed the watch back into Zheng Qing's arms.
The surrounding scene solidified again with this 'click' sound.
"Time... just go back a little bit." Mr. Wu looked down at his disciples and taught him a habitual lesson: "As I told you before, time is the most powerful force in the world.
1. The stronger it is, the more stubborn it is... and the effects of force are mutual. So, if you don't want to be beaten into a scum by the more powerful force of time, don't fiddle with your dial at will... Ah
sneeze!"
The gentleman sneezed heavily.
He took out a handkerchief from his pocket, blew his nose, and shook his head: "I'm old, I'm old... In the past, even if I could turn the hour hand back ten or eight times, I wouldn't sneeze."
Zheng Qing stood next to his husband, looking at the familiar scene of the bull-headed man uprooting the tree not far away, feeling speechless.
It would be great if I could use the power of this pocket watch during the exam!
I don't know if it was because he felt relieved that the danger was over, but this thought suddenly appeared in Zheng Qing's mind.
If he could also use the power of this pocket watch, then he would read the paper several times during the exam, write down the more difficult test points, and then move the hour hand back one circle, or a few spaces - even if the hour hand moves back
It is enough to move the minute hand back one or two turns without moving - so that he can sharpen his skills before the exam.
The gun polished in this way can definitely blind everyone's eyes.
Thinking of this, Zheng Qing couldn't help but smile and his eyes narrowed, and he couldn't help but tighten his grip on the pocket watch in his hand.
Maybe he noticed the young wizard's little thoughts.
Mr. Wu raised his hand and gave him a slap on the back of the head, teaching him a lesson: "With that little magic power you have, you can't even move the second hand... With that little effort, you might as well just play two sets of "May Three" to make things more secure.
.”
"When you graduate from school, when will you consider using that watch for functions other than timekeeping?"
Zheng Qing couldn't help but rub his eyes and laughed when his husband revealed his deepest thoughts.
After being slapped by my husband just now, my eyes seemed to have accidentally caught the wind, and I felt a bit astringent.
