The snake that lived in Zheng Qing's ear had left a very deep impression on the young wizards of the Exoneration Hunting Team during the freshman trial at the beginning of his sophomore year.
On the Forbidden Day last month, it once again staged a big battle in the North District.
So when Xiao Xiao saw an object of unknown origin, resembling a snake egg, and matching the 'hatching place', it was perfectly reasonable for Xiao Xiao to identify it as the egg of the big green snake.
The issue is--
"Is it reasonable for such a big snake to lay such small eggs?"
Hearing that it was related to the big green snake that alarmed the entire island, the fat wizard suddenly became interested. He dropped the quill pen and the half-written manuscript in his hand. Baba came closer to the doctor, squinted and looked at the snake egg, his face
There was a hint of doubt on his face: "Besides, Brother Zha didn't tell you about the male or female of that snake, right?"
He turned to look at Zheng Qing.
Xiao Xiao pushed up his glasses and sneered: "Big or small? How big do you think the eggs laid by a snake that can live in other people's ears will be? Besides, when did wizards have to look at the gender of their children when they give birth?"
Two consecutive rhetorical questions immediately choked the fat wizard to death.
It also scared Zheng Qing half to death.
His two roommates did not know the identity of the big green snake and only regarded it as an elder like a school professor, so their conversation was inevitably not respectful enough.
But Zheng Qing knew how cold and cruel the big green snake living in his ears was originally - the war that took place in the Black Prison last year with a mess of casualties and almost destroyed the entire world, traced back to the root cause, was the culprit
This guy.
It is not the elder of young wizards.
But the ancestor of demons!
That is to say, with the guarantee from his husband and the inability to resist, Zheng Qing let the Big Green Snake's 'dwelling' behavior go unchecked. If he had a choice, he would definitely leave this big trouble to Lao Yao or someone else in the school.
Handled by a vice-principal.
Even so, Zheng Qing rarely disturbed this ancestor on weekdays, lest it might feel unhappy and stick out its tongue to swallow a passing student.
Thinking about the amount of mental pressure he usually carries, Zheng Qing sometimes has to admire his own tenacity.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
The young teaching assistant jumped up from the bed with a bang. He felt much more awake. He raised his voice slightly, interrupting the two roommates' unbridled speculations. He subconsciously covered his ears and looked at Xiao Xiao uneasily.
The voice turned low again: "——Aren't you usually very cautious? Why are you so unscrupulous today!"
Zheng Qing's emotions immediately infected two people.
They are not naive and stupid college students who know nothing.
Fatty Xin was lucky, his skin was thick and oily, and he couldn't see the blood boiling. Seeing that the wind was in the wrong direction, he immediately rolled back to the table obediently and picked up his quill again.
Dr. Xiao Da's face suddenly turned pale.
"No, not really."
The short wizard shook his hand and almost threw the snake-egg-shaped thing away. With a bit of stuttering, he forced a smile and said: "...It's just a chat between classmates, nothing like that..."
His voice gradually became lower.
Zheng Qing rubbed his face and felt no abnormality coming from his ears and eyes, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he took the 'little troublesome egg' again, paused, and reminded his fortune teller: "——
As far as I know, that snake is not from our school."
This sentence is a little vague.
But this does not prevent Dr. Xiao Da from understanding the profound meaning - as a qualified fortune teller, he is good at using vague language to describe divination, and naturally he is also good at inferring the truth through vagueness.
So, he decisively changed the subject and skipped the topic very abruptly: "The investigating wizards at the school didn't lock you up in the school hospital. It was beyond our expectations..."
"I'm really lucky. I went into the hospital at midnight, left the hospital at midnight, and still made it to the first class tomorrow morning." Zheng Qing laughed at himself, feeling exhausted again, and couldn't help but yawned greatly: "——
Did you see where my black gem cat went?"
He was quite unaccustomed to not having this 'energy medicine pack'.
"It seems that he left with Jiang Yu." The fat wizard scratched his head with a quill, looked at the manuscript he had written for most of the time, and suddenly sighed: "——I said, Brother Qing, what happened in Quan Ke Lai?
Son, can you reveal some of the inside story of the investigation? It’s still close to the water, so let me write something different.”
This guy!
When you are mean-mouthed, you can call people "scumbag" casually, but when you are trying to please someone, you know how to be polite.
"There is no inside story."
Zheng Qing curled his lips and skillfully took out a nightmare doll and stuffed it under the pillow. He stuffed the 'snake egg' into the nightmare doll's arms and muttered at the same time: "I know what you want to ask. I'll put that Yagneg
After putting the skull on its head, I saw nothing and heard nothing...it screamed. It had nothing to do with me!"
The fat wizard and the doctor exchanged glances, obviously having reservations about Zheng Qing's words.
"——Is it possible that Councilor Su has tampered with it?" The fat wizard made a wild guess: "When you were sitting on that chair, her face didn't look very good. She didn't seem to want you to randomly use wild gods to divination.
.”
"Are you talking about Councilor Su's clone?" Xiao Xiao also got into his bed. Hearing this, he stuck his head out of the tent and said: "...Is it possible that she was unhappy the whole night? What I mean is
Yes, put yourself in my shoes, if you went on a date with another girl without telling your fiancée, would your fiancée be furious?"
Zheng Qing's thoughts were already a little hazy.
"I don't have a fiancée..."
He muttered and turned over. But his mind couldn't help flashing back to the scene when he was 'shopping' at Quan Ke Lai tonight. While there was a trace of sadness in his heart, there was also a hint of secret joy. Perhaps only in this kind of half-dream and half-awake state
Only then did he dare to truly face his own feelings.
Behind him, the night conversation between the two roommates still had not ended, and it reached his ears intermittently——
"...Speaking of which, do you think that the old fishman priest was a bit flattering in front of Councilor Su's clone? Didn't Senior Korma also enter the tent last year? I remember very clearly that at that time, the old fishman's attitude
Very reserved..."
"...the great wizard of the North District and the senator of the Yuexia Parliament are completely different concepts. What's so strange about this? It would be strange if the old fish man didn't understand the ways of the world and trusted the great wizard in Qingqiu...
…”
"...When those 'cat-faced' people broke in, I thought they were the wizards of the three-pronged sword. Later I realized that they were people from the school..."
"...It's really easy to get confused. Normally, when the school's teaching assistant team performs tasks, they all wear masks. The cat face is worn by the Three-pronged Sword Team..."
Fuss--
Zheng Qing answered the complaints of his two companions with his last thought.
Dormitory 403 also gradually became quiet.
Except for the snoring of varying degrees, no other sounds could be heard. The moonlight passed through the window and fell slantingly on Zheng Qing's bed, and then a few touches of moonlight passed through the narrow gap between the curtains and sprinkled on the bed.
Boys pillow.
The nightmare doll beside the pillow was motionless.
Instead, the snake egg lying in its arms swayed slightly in the moonlight.
Click.
The shell of the snake egg quietly cracked a small crack.
