Hunting High School

On Friday night, that is, two days ago, Li Meng invited several acquaintances to the Qingqiu mansion to help the little maid named Su Ya collect pumpkins.

Worried about being discovered by his peers about his relationship with Su Shijun, the guilty public student tried to escape the day's work with an 'eye disease', so he flew a paper crane to Professor Yao, pretending that his eyes were uncomfortable.

It's just that Lao Yao was not in school at the time, which caused his plan to fail in the end.

Fortunately, in the end, the young wizard finally took advantage of the opportunity of Lao Yao's reply to leave the classroom early, and then escaped with the help of the transformation potion.

Now, with Professor Yao standing in front of him, bringing up the old matter again, the wizard couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"Oh oh, that day... It's okay, it's okay. I got sand in my eyes that day, and I overreacted a little." Zheng Qing blinked, and the lie came out, trying to get away with it: "Then I used my eyes I washed my eyes with the medicine, and then I was fine."

Well-reasoned and smooth. The only mistake was that he seemed to have forgotten that standing in front of him was a great wizard.

Moreover, he is a senior wizard with profound attainments in many subjects such as spells, divination, and healing.

Although Professor Yao would not casually use magic such as mind reading or insanity on his own students, it doesn't mean that the old professor can't see the guilt that flashes across the face of the young public-funded students.

Lying in front of Lao Yao is really not a smart move.

The professor held the quill in one hand, and pressed the other hand between the documents on the desk, staring at the young public fee student, his brows gradually frowned.

The young wizard who was looking straight at him stood uneasy and felt hairy, so the professor said slowly:

"I never remember telling you a lie... When you come to the First University, you learn the skills of using magic, the principles of being a human being, and how not to lose yourself in the pursuit of the truth."

"Instead of learning how to speak nonsense."

"Remember that sentence I said when I started school? After a long time in contact with magic, you will find that losing your heart is the most terrible thing in the world. If you lose yourself, then 'you' What's left?"

"It's like walking on a deserted path with muddy swamps on both sides. You can't go wrong if you follow this narrow and winding path; It doesn't matter the road, it's inevitable that you will get mud on your shoes... Seriously, you may fall into a puddle or be swallowed by a swamp."

"There are gains and losses in one thought, and there is great terror in the choice."

"You stand here, don't go back, think clearly before speaking."

After all, he ignored Zheng Qing and let him stand beside him in a daze. Then Lao Yao directly removed the shielding barrier, greeted a few students who were standing outside, waiting to consult the exam questions, and began to explain various key points and difficulties to them in a pleasant manner.

The witches sitting in the front row looked at Zheng Qing curiously, and Li Meng was even in the mood to make a face at him; while the companions sitting in the corner of the back row just glanced up and were still standing at the lecture hall. Seeing that he hadn't come back, the wizard at the table lowered his head and whispered something again.

No one realized that Zheng Qing was punished to stand.

He looked more like he was standing next to a professor listening to a troubleshooting session.

The young public fee student stood there, his face suddenly pale and red, and his mood was like a spilled sauce, full of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty.

It wasn't until then that he suddenly realized that at some point, he had become accustomed to telling nonsense.

Since childhood, both his family members and Mr. Wu have taught Zheng Qing to be honest and do things in a down-to-earth manner. Because the range of activities was limited at that time, and Life was under their noses every day, so Zheng Qing has always behaved well and behaved well.

But when he went overseas alone and entered a strange wizarding university, the suddenly relaxed life environment and the mentality of wanting to escape or play tricks when encountering difficulties made him unconsciously get into the habit of lying .

To friends, teachers, classmates, even cats, mice, and parrots, Zheng Qing seems to have lied to them to varying degrees. Some of them were deliberate, trying to use nonsense to take a shortcut to achieve his goals; some were restricted by the contract of silence, and he could not tell the truth;

That's scary.

"Don't do evil because it's small", "The embankment of a thousand miles collapses in an ant's nest", "A tree that embraces a tree is born at the end of a hair" and other such sentences circled and repeated in his mind, mixed with what Lao Yao once said about' The horror of "lost heart" made him more and more uneasy.

It didn't take too long for Lao Yao to give lectures to others, but for Zheng Qing, this short period of time was extremely tormenting, even more difficult than the entire regular meeting tonight.

When the professor turned his head and looked at the young public finance student again, Zheng Qing was already ready to confess everything to Lao Yao.

But the professor waved his hand and stopped him.

"You still don't understand." He looked at the wizard seriously and shook his head: "I didn't force you to confess secrets that you don't want to or shouldn't. This is unreasonable and does not conform to the actual situation."

"Is it true that in this world, everything but black is white, and nothing but truth is nothing but lies? You are not allowed to tell lies, but you are not required to tell the truth whenever and wherever. This is not magic."

"You are no longer a child. You should know what you should do and what you should not do."

Zheng Qing originally thought that he already knew what he knew, but now after hearing Lao Yao's words, he became a little confused. Should he tell lies, tell the truth, or use some magical means? ?

"Then, should I say it or not?" He hesitated, trying to ask, "Is it okay not to say it?"

"If you don't intend to tell me the truth, how should you answer me when I asked you the first question?" The professor didn't give him an affirmative answer, but continued to ask a question.

Zheng Qing thought for a few seconds.

"Sorry, sir, I don't know about this." He looked at Lao Yao sincerely.

Lao Yao nodded in satisfaction, and his face finally became more amiable:

"Avoiding is not an option, but it is much better than telling lies after all... Now you are like stepping on a narrow path with one foot, and passing through a swamp with one foot hanging in the air. Where you plan to settle down determines how strong the road under your feet is. .”

"Then I'll ask again."

"On Friday, you told Feihe that your eyes were uncomfortable, how are you doing now?"

"It's been dealt with, Professor." The young public funder replied honestly.
