Chapter 40: Professor Garcia

 There is an elective class on Thursday afternoon.

Zheng Qing took a life class as an elective last semester. The course content was to teach first-year students some small magic tricks commonly used in daily life, such as the spell to clean clothes, which is of great help to those who are not very independent.

This semester, Zheng Qing is taking the fish-human language as an elective. On the one hand, he has been in school for more than half a year and has had many interactions with the Linzhong Lake fish-people tribe. Learning some fish-human language may be helpful, and the Ouroboros Hunter

The young fishman Iseni at the head of the team wants to do business with D&K. If you don't want to be cheated by the fishmen, it is obviously very important to master their language.

On the other hand, although there is a 'general knowledge' circle on Phuket Island, mastering a 'minor language' is quite popular at First University.

Just like in dormitory 403, Dylan learned werewolf language and Fatty Xin learned horseman language. Zheng Qing felt that he had to learn something different in order to look like a serious wizard.

In addition, there is another reason why Zheng Qing chose to take the fish-people common language course.

Once when the Judgment Hunting Team was helping the Forgiveness Hunting Team to train, he heard Deng Xiaojian say that the final assessment of the fish-man language is very simple. It only takes two hisses, and many people can get passing marks. If you can do it in hissing

When hissing, he hisses out a desolate tone, which can even get high marks in the hands of Professor Garcia.

Professor Garcia is the professor of the Murloc Common Language course. His full name is Abu Garcia. It is said that his ancestors were the leaders of the Murloc tribe in Scandinavia - which now belongs to Sweden - but it is not known when.

Arrive at Phuket Island.

In the eyes of his classmates, Professor Garcia does not have the majesty or temperament of the leader of the fish-man tribe. Except for the slightly larger whites of his eyes and the fish scales on the back of his hands and neck, he is usually a kind old man.

Unlike the murlocs in Linzhong Lake that Zheng Qing knew, Professor Garcia was a very 'civilized' murloc.

He is the only old fishman in the First University who has a seat in the professors' joint meeting, and is clean and smellless. On weekdays, he also wears black robes and a pointed wizard hat like a real wizard, with his chest

He wears a monocle, a Dharma book hanging on his waist, and always holds a stack of lesson plans in his arms.

Even when walking, it will hold a cup of coffee or tea with wolfberry in its hand.

Zheng Qing has never seen Professor Garcia's fins - like the ones on Iseni's back - you know, most fishmen regard fins as something worth showing off, similar to the ones on minotaurs.

Tattoos, French men’s high heels and stockings, Fuso men’s crotch cloth.

As far as Zheng Qing knows, Iseni likes to hang various bright gadgets on its fins as decoration. It makes a clanking sound when it walks, like a big ox passing by shaking its head.

Professor Garcia never showed its fins, as if they didn't exist.

There is a private rumor among classmates that Professor Garcia cut off all his fins in order to stay at First University and teach. Because according to the school's regulations, teachers and professors need to maintain the dignified style of old-school wizards and cannot dress in strange clothes.

Dress differently.

Rumors remain rumors because people cannot verify their authenticity.

In short, for Zheng Qing and most students, Professor Garcia is a good teacher and a good fish man, and this is enough.

But no matter how good the teacher is, he is still a teacher.

As long as there is a class, the difference between a good teacher and a bad teacher is very small - such as mathematics or physics - even if the good teachers are brilliant on stage, students who like to be distracted in the audience will continue to be distracted.

In the first fish-man common language class, the new students who took this course always came to listen to the old fish-man's lectures with great interest. But soon, everyone found that the fish-man professor was not in class with other ordinary professors.

There is no difference, there are also textbooks, lesson plans, homework and answering questions.

Gradually, just like in other classes, everyone's eyes slowly lost their brightness and they dozed off without anyone noticing. After all, this class has an easy exam, so it doesn't matter if you miss one or two classes occasionally.

In the Fishman Common Language class on Thursday afternoon, Zheng Qing sat upright for the first time in a long time and listened to the class carefully like a real public-funded student - so that the client would have a little more confidence when asking the professor to find a black sheep -

- Countless times during this period, he wanted to close his eyes and play chess with Duke Zhou, but he held it back. For this, he gave himself many thumbs up from the bottom of his heart.

In this class, Professor Garcia used slow murloc language to tell the history of the murloc tribe, from Scandinavia to the Aegean Sea, and then to Asia Minor; from the Jiaozhou Peninsula to the Leizhou Peninsula, and then to the Great Barrier Reef;

Great Lakes to Amazon.

The entire history of the migration of the fish-men tribe is a history of the development and growth of wizards.

Professor Garcia may want to use this 'historical sense' to bridge the gap between the wizards of the First University and the Linzhong Lake murloc tribe, just like the history books of the Central Plains Dynasty tend to use

Words like 'fusion' instead of 'killing and conquering' - Zheng Qing doubted how many people understood the professor's meaning.

Most of the students, apart from using shorthand quills to scribble down the names of important places, people and times in their notebooks, stared with blank eyes and listened to the old fish man's hissing on the podium.

It's painful to hear a murloc hiss.

More than once, Zheng Qing was scratched by a fat cat in the dormitory because he recited the Yuren language text. The place where no one and no cat liked to live was filled with "hissing" sounds, which made people's hair stand on end.

Moreover, if you understand the lingua franca of fishmen, you will inevitably be able to 'synesthetically' smell the smelly smell of real fishmen, which will make it even more uncomfortable.

"... Violence is not good, very bad." Professor Garcia sighed and summed up the theme of the entire lesson in one sentence: "This cruel joy will eventually end in cruelty. Destruction of order cannot bring about

Only freedom and order can bring freedom.”

This sentence seemed to contain so much profound meaning that Zheng Qing couldn't help chewing it for a few more seconds.

The fish-men tribe used violent methods to resist the school's policies, and all they received was an even more violent response from the school. Although this sentence is a bit pessimistic, it is not difficult to understand.

The last sentence is indescribable.

Mr. Wu once told Zheng Qing that he was a 'seed of order' and that the forbidden curse in his body was converged according to the rules of 'order'. But in Professor Garcia's mouth, order seemed to be related to

Freedom has something to do with it - Zheng Qing thought to himself that he is obviously a pure Jiuyou student, how could he have anything to do with Alpha's purpose?

This kind of problem cannot be thought about in detail.

When he came back to his senses, Professor Garcia had already walked out of the door with his lecture notes in his arms, and all he could see was the flowing hem of his robe.

"Excuse me!"

The young public-sponsored student packed up his things indiscriminately, pushed through several classmates who were blocking the road, jumped out of the classroom, and chased after the old fish man: "Professor! Professor Garcia, please wait."
