Zheng Qing and Xiao Xiao discussed their dreams last night.
"I think you're seeing an 'illusion'."
After Xiao Xiao carefully listened to Zheng Qing's detailed description of the dream, he came to his conclusion with certainty: "Wizards who are proficient in divination can use magic techniques to conceal their identity in reality, thus confusing the accuracy of divination... In the end,
The clear evidence is that after you woke up from the dream, you quickly fell into a deep sleep, but when you woke up today, you could clearly recall everything that happened in the dream. This is completely different from a real nightmare or an eyewitness picture. Understand it from another perspective -
Only illusions require witnesses to remember them clearly; real dreams are always vague and forgettable."
Although his analysis made sense, Zheng Qing was noncommittal.
Not only was the face he saw at the last glance deeply impressive to him, but also the dried crows hanging on the scaffolding also made him somewhat concerned.
"Would it be possible..." he said carefully.
"Won't."
Xiao Xiao interrupted Zheng Qing's speculation very forcefully, obviously guessing what he wanted to say: "The crow has been destroyed, this is a fact jointly certified by the school and the Trident Sword... The Exoneration Hunting Team also benefited a lot from this result.
.Don’t forget how you got that golden medal of Merlin.”
"Then why did I see Gan Ning?"
"Think about it every day and dream about it at night. This is an ancient magic theory that has never gone out of style."
"Who do you think those cultists are worshiping?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know... The best way to deal with evil gods is not Lourdes holy water or protective spells, but not to see them, not to think about them, not to know them, as long as you know nothing about them.
If you know them, you will never have to worry about them causing you any harm."
"It sounds a bit deceptive." Zheng Qing was somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao Xiao's passive response: "Do you still remember the 'Gesderso Murder Case' mentioned in the history of magic? Those thirteen innocent people were sacrificed by cultists.
Or, who knows about the existence of that evil god? When the mudslide rushes into the village, it will not be spared because of your ignorance."
"Will you be buried in a mudslide?"
Xiao Xiao sharply pointed out the ambiguity in Zheng Qing's understanding: "What you call 'innocents' are actually 'people without the ability to resist.' Although they are innocent, they face any disaster - not just cultists.
——The survival rate will not be too high. On the contrary, if you have the ability to resist, no matter it is Gesdesso or mudslides, it will not cause any harm to you."
Zheng Qing fell silent again.
Xiao Xiao adjusted his glasses and looked behind him curiously.
"Then do you think I should report to the school the dream I had last night?" Zheng Qing didn't notice the doctor's gaze and asked again with some hesitation.
"Tell Lao Yao that you dreamed of a group of hanging crows, or tell the teaching assistants that you dreamed of a group of cultists?" Xiao Xiao sneered and shook his head very hard: "No one cares about the life or death of a group of cultists... as long as they
Don't cause any trouble. Of course, I don't deny that someone may be confusing the situation and using black magic rituals to cover up their true purpose - just like what I just analyzed, the scene you witnessed in the dream may have been carefully disguised.
It's passed - but precisely because of this, you can't act rashly. Many times, being influenced by divination and taking action easily can cause more harm than doing nothing."
Zheng Qing nodded frequently.
But I found that Xiao Xiao was a little distracted in his analysis, and his eyes were always looking behind him.
He subconsciously wanted to turn around, but was quickly restrained by the short wizard's quick eyes and hands.
"Don't move yet," Dr. Xiao Da put his hand on his bamboo slips and said in a low voice, "I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that the atmosphere in the class is a bit weird...many people are secretly looking at you.
"
"Look at me?" Zheng Qing looked confused.
At this moment, a rumbling sound came from the corridor, like a running fire dragon, and the heavy footsteps stopped abruptly until they reached the door of the History of Magic classroom.
Zheng Qing easily noticed the familiar aura.
It's Fatty Xin.
"It's coming! It's coming! Sorry, wait a minute!"
The fat wizard shouted, apologizing without any pause, and continued running to the corner of the classroom. He raised his hand to hold up a barrier to block the sound, and looked at Zheng Qing with an excited expression: "... Get ready, the big one is coming.
Got it!"
"What the hell?" Zheng Qing had a question mark on his head.
Fatty Xin calmed down his excitement, snapped his fingers, and explained quickly: "Linda just told me that she has detected that the discussion about you in the school is heating up rapidly... so she plans to start taking action today.
Let’s stir up the heat first. As long as our rumors are exaggerated enough, we don’t need to worry about others smearing you.”
"I really appreciate you." Zheng Qing complained with complicated emotions.
Looking out through the shielding barrier, sure enough, many students in the class started pointing fingers at him again, but many people did not have anger in their eyes, but looked a little surprised.
"What are her 'explosives'?" Zheng Qing couldn't control the curiosity in his heart.
"You will know sooner or later."
The fat wizard shook his hand apologetically and resolutely followed his girlfriend's order: "Linda said you just need to remain silent during this period and not make any public response."
Soon, Zheng Qing understood why Miss Barnes didn't want him to know what rumors she had concocted.
During lunch.
Zheng Qing just sat at the dining table.
Li Meng grabbed a big apple and gnawed it as she approached the wizard and looked him up and down curiously, making Zheng Qing feel uncomfortable all over.
"What are you looking at?" Zheng Qing's eyes flickered around the little witch, trying to find her cousin.
"Lizard man." Li Meng replied confidently.
"Hmm...huh?" Zheng Qing finally looked away from behind her, with a strange look on his face: "What? Lizard people? Which subspecies? Who? Are you talking about me?!"
His rhetorical questions followed Li Meng's eyes, until he came to an incredible conclusion. He pointed at his nose, somewhat dumbfounded: "Where did you hear such rumors?"
Even so, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, feeling that the rumors concocted by Linda Barnes were nothing more than that.
“Very reliable channel.”
The little witch took a hard bite of the apple in her hand. She did not betray her informant, but continued to look at Zheng Qing thoughtfully: "No wonder you have such a wide range of sexual habits, and you always walk with your shoulders drooped... And Su Ya said
, your physical strength has been explosively strengthened recently, which is a characteristic of lizard people who are about to reach adulthood... Did you really emerge from an egg? Ouch!"
Not surprisingly, Jiang Yu flicked her head.
The witch brought light food and scolded the little witch.
"Don't spread those unfounded speculations! You are not a primary school student anymore!" As she said that, she put down the plate in her hand and sat generously opposite Zheng Qing. She raised her hand to tie her long hair back to the back of her head and tied it up.
On the other hand, he said calmly: "... Lend me the homework of Magical Cosmology this afternoon. I've been a little tight lately and I haven't finished my homework yet."
Zheng Qing felt that this was even more ridiculous than him knowing that he was a lizard man.
