Monster Hunting High School

It is very simple to judge whether a person is mature, just by how he understands the world.

If he thinks that people in the world are divided into good people and bad people, then he is immature; if he thinks that people in the world are divided into rule-abiding people and unruly people, then he is slightly more mature; If he realizes that people in the world are divided into those who can control themselves and those who cannot, then he has matured.

Mature people will control their emotions, deal with their emotions first, and deal with things later to avoid emotions affecting decision-making and behavior.

Like now.

Zheng Qing felt that he had matured.

Because he didn't turn the black gem cat into stone because of the irritation of the secret poke, nor did he run away because of the momentary panic. On the contrary, he stood very calmly between the fox and the witch.

In the lively and quiet Quan Ke Lai Wei market, the dog was in front, and the young wizards, witches and the big cyan fox were walking side by side behind. The witch is on the left, the fox is on the right, Zheng Qing is in the middle, with a black gem cat lying on his left shoulder, a white jade cat hanging on his right shoulder, and a little fox in his arms.

The little fox has returned from its squirrel appearance to its usual size, chatting with the two cats along the way, which was very lively.

But the excitement was theirs, and Zheng Qing only felt noisy.

Because he had to continue to filter out the noise coming from his arms and shoulders, carefully capture the "cordial and friendly" exchanges between the witch and the big fox, and ensure that he did not miss some terrible words.

"...Dean Yao has already said that everyone should pay attention to safety. Isn't there something wrong with you bringing Dongdong to Wei City?" As she said that, the witch glanced at the gray little fox in Zheng Qing's arms and added: "——It's not good for children to dye their hair."

"The color of her coat is just a bit of natural magic. There is no need to dye it."

The big fox's steps were light and his tone was brisk: "Besides, as the old saying goes, a child will have fulfilled his filial piety for a lifetime by the time he is three years old... I just want Dongdong to fulfill his filial piety as much as possible before he is three years old."

The little fox's big tail gracefully rested on Zheng Qing's neck. Zheng Qing weighed her heavy weight without feeling any filial piety. He only felt that the tail was like a noose that could hang him at any time.

"——It's all caused by those crows!" The girl sighed slightly.

"yes."

The big fox seemed to have the same feeling and narrowed his eyes: "I remember Wilde said something, some people bring happiness to everyone when they are alive, and some people bring happiness to everyone when they die..."

At this point, she suddenly tilted her head and looked at Zheng Qing: "...Do you think what he said makes sense?"

"ah?"

Zheng Qing seemed to have just woken up from a dream and swallowed a small mouthful of saliva - he felt as if his throat was inflamed, swallowing saliva was like swallowing a razor blade, but his instinct forced him to repeat this process - his eyes moved flexibly He looked left and right, and after confirming that both people's eyes were on him, he suddenly panicked. Suddenly he saw a group of fireflies not far away chasing a small, sparkling yellow snake with fins, and subconsciously He stretched out his hand and pointed: "What kind of snake is that? It's actually glowing!"

The big fox and the girl both looked over.

"It's tiao (rong)."

After all, the great wizard had more knowledge. It only took a few seconds for the fox to give Zheng Qing a rare name, and at the same time simply explained: "This is a creature from the Motu River. Although it lives in the water, it It’s a harbinger of drought… In other words, you see it’s chasing water, but actually it’s chasing drought.”

Even with Zheng Qing's small brain, he could tell something was wrong from this sentence.

But he hasn't had time to think about it yet.

A more interesting sentence came to my ears.

"——It's really interesting."

Jiang Yu looked at the little snake and the light bugs, and suddenly smiled: "The minnows (tiao) (rong) chase water, bugs chase light, and people chase profit. Chasing without reason is wrong. existing."

Every sentence is about the little yellow snake.

Every sentence seemed to have nothing to do with the little snake.

The big cyan fox swung its tail gracefully and said softly: "Human nature is to seek profit. Seeking to maximize one's own interests within the scope of the rules is the inevitable result of the combination of instinct and reason. The so-called 'wizard is big but That’s what it means to do whatever you want without breaking the rules.”

Zheng Qing wished he could become transparent at this moment, fearing that someone next to him would suddenly speak up and ask him what he thought.

How could he have any opinion on this unreasonable reasoning?

Meow!

Maodou suddenly stopped and turned around to shout at Zheng Qing.

The wizard was immediately overjoyed. He followed the sound and happened to see Xiao Xiao and his party just coming out of a small shop. The three of them were whispering to each other and talking about something.

"Doctor!" He waved his hand impatiently.

Xiao Xiao raised his head, glanced at it, and immediately dragged Fatty Zhang Jixin and Yu Xin to the other direction, complaining loudly: "Ah, I remembered, didn't you say you wanted to sell miscanthus..."

"Didn't they all sell out just now?" The fat wizard didn't see Zheng Qing and his party, so his voice was full of confusion.

"No, you haven't sold it yet!" Xiao Xiao retorted firmly.

How could Zheng Qing let them slip away like this?

He took two steps at a time to catch up with his companions, hung Bo Saidong around his neck, then took out a bunch of dried meat tied with hemp rope from the gray cloth bag, and stuffed it into Xiao Xiao's arms: "... …This is the dried bird meat I bought for you, you’re welcome!”

"Why do I need this?" Dr. Xiao was confused.

"To feed your turtle... Didn't you say you didn't have enough turtle shells? Dried eagle meat can promote reproduction, so you don't have to worry about not having enough turtle shells anymore."

The short wizard was speechless: "- Do you know how long it takes to raise a little turtle to hatch? By the time the turtle shells fed with dried eagle meat are usable, I will have graduated from school!"

"Maybe the grass on the grave is three feet high." Fatty Xin also saw the big fox and Jiang Yu not far away at this moment. He seemed to be picking up Xiao Xiao's words, but he patted Zheng Qing's shoulder meaningfully.

Zheng Qing took a deep breath.

Keep calm.

Now is not the time to argue. If he continues, it will be unbecoming. After all, among this circle of people, there may be winners and losers in the argument, but he is the only one who has no chance of winning.

"Do you remember where the tent of the old fishman priest who told fortunes for us last time is?" He stretched out his hand and pinched Xiao Xiao's shoulder blade, his tone carrying a subtle threat.

"Hiss!" The doctor took a breath, his eyes twitching slightly: "I'll take you there!... Can I pinch a different shoulder next time?"

Chirp chirp!

Poseidon hung on Zheng Qing's neck, laughing.
