Monster Hunting High School

"What do you think the unicorn is like?"

Xiao Xiao, who had been quiet for a long time, suddenly spoke and asked his companions.

This question immediately silenced the others.

The reason for silence is not that this question is too profound, but that everyone needs to think carefully about how to answer it. But this question is too simple, so simple that no one thought Dr. Xiao would ask such a question.

So there must be something fishy behind this problem.

But remaining silent was not an option. In the end, the captain of the Exoneration Hunting Team took the lead and gave his own answer first: "The monstrosity...is a magical creature?"

Undoubtedly, this is nonsense. But considering that the question Xiao Xiao asked was nonsense, it didn't seem like it was too much to answer a nonsense question.

But he also made a good start for others.

"A 狌狌 is a monster that looks like a monkey." Fatty Xin replied carelessly.

Compared with Fatty, Elder Zhang Da, who had served as the main hunter of the hunting team, was much more cautious in his answer. He directly quoted the annotations in the "Wizard Encyclopedia" and added: "It looks like a bamboo with white ears, and it can hide on pedestrians. , its name is Xianyang, it eats well and walks well."

Because the hunting team had already known the identity of the prey before, everyone had read relevant information in their spare time. Everyone could tell a story about the basic information, habits, preferences, etc. of the unicorn with their eyes closed.

"I've never known what it feels like to be good at running after eating roe meat," Zheng Qing couldn't help but interjected, guessing: "Could it make your leg muscles suddenly develop a few times after eating it? Or does it stimulate the circulation of blood in the meridians of the lower limbs? speed to achieve the effect of promoting walking?”

"Maybe after eating it, you will grow two extra legs. You can use both limbs and switch directions, so you can run faster." Dylan's jokes always have the style of Vampire Castle - weird, but also a little bit weird. Very eerie feeling.

"Is there more?" Xiao Xiao didn't pay attention to the banter between his companions, but nodded thoughtfully and continued to ask.

Seeing his serious look, everyone finally stopped their playful attitude and became a little more serious.

Zheng Qing seemed to be thinking of something, and hesitantly said: "If I remember correctly... I remember that the scorpion is the first animal in the first mountain described in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"... According to general logic, this mountain Or there must be something special about this animal."

"Do you still remember the silverback gorilla that Lao Yao summoned for us when he taught the binding spell? I think he saw something at that time, so he prepared such a sparring partner for us." Fatty Xin also fully understood Use your imagination.

"That's the problem!" Xiao Xiao adjusted his glasses and emphasized his tone slightly.

The curious eyes of others immediately focused on him. Because no one heard anything wrong with what Fatty just said.

"Who told us that unicorns must look like orangutans? In other words, who told us that the character is pronounced 'xing'?" Dr. Xiao Da assumed in a rhetorical tone, and then asked and answered himself: "No, not , it’s just that we just decided that based on inertia.”

The other people looked at each other and were speechless.

After a long while, Zhang Jixin coughed twice: "Ahem, Doctor...Does your analysis have any basis? We are hunting, and we must be responsible when we speak on the hunting ground."

Xiao Xiao did not say anything, but just recited a passage from the classic: "The first part of the Nanshan Sutra is called Mountain. The first part is called Swaggering Mountain, which is located on the West Sea... There is a beast, which looks like a tree and has white ears. Those who walk on foot are called 狋狌, and those who eat well walk.'"

"Fan Lin is three hundred miles away, to the east of Yi Yi."

"The 狌狌 knows people's names. It is a beast like a hog with a human face. It was buried in the west where Shun was buried."

"There is a rhinoceros in the northwest of the unicorn. It looks like an ox but is black."

After finishing reciting, Xiao Xiao looked at everyone as if he didn't understand. But the onlookers became more and more confused.

"What do you mean, we should look for black cattle and Fanlin within a radius of three hundred miles?" Zheng Qing guessed what the doctor meant, and then put forward his own opinion: "But we have just been searching in the woods for a long time, don't Speaking of black cattle, not even a black wild boar was seen... let alone Fan Lin within a radius of three hundred miles."

"How big is the entire Phuket Island?" Fatty Xin nodded in agreement.

Dr. Xiao shook his head in disappointment, obviously very dissatisfied with the understanding of his companions.

"I mean, there are differences in the descriptions of mongooses in the classics, so why are we obsessed with looking for those suspected gorillas?" He finally gave his answer: "Didn't you listen to what I just said? ? It was said earlier that the ox is 'shaped like a tiger and has white ears', and later it is said that it is 'like a pig but has a human face'... How can an animal look like a monkey and a pig at the same time?"

After hearing Xiao Xiao's words, for some reason, the image of Seprano's brother suddenly appeared in Zheng Qing's mind - the fat man he met when he first went shopping at Four Seasons.

Loosely speaking, the fat man is a primate creature, but he looks like a pig.

So he couldn't help but chuckle a few times.

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows: "Do you have any different opinions?"

"Ah, me?" Zheng Qing reacted immediately and shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no, no objection, I think what you said makes sense..."

Just think about the thought you just had, and never tell anyone about it.

On the one hand, it is suspected of discrimination and seems very impolite. On the other hand, as the saying goes, death is the most important thing. Although Soprano's brother has a bad temper, a bad personality, and a bad figure, he has finally become worse. , continued to comment on him, Zheng Qing himself felt bad.

"So, I think we should change the direction of our search and no longer be obsessed with gorilla-like prey." Xiao Xiao turned around and looked at the others and said.

"But we must have a target." Zhang Jixin frowned: "The forest is so big, there are all kinds of birds... If there is no target, what standards should we use for hunting?"

"Three goals. Next, we will focus on three goals." Obviously, Dr. Xiao Da had already prepared this question raised by Zhang Jixin, and added without hesitation: "The first one is an animal like an orangutan; the third one is an animal like an orangutan; The second type is an animal that looks like a pig; the third type is an animal that looks like a mouse..."

"Stop, stop!" Dylan spoke in time to stop the doctor from continuing, and then asked the question that everyone was wondering: "We can still understand whether it is like an orangutan or like a pig...what the hell is like a mouse! Yes! Is it like a rat?"
