Mei Chinese New Year's Eve remembered the lesson plans of the past years stuffed to him by his enthusiastic colleagues, and only felt a pain in his brain.

Under normal circumstances, interns like him don't have a particularly good academic background, and most of them start teaching from the first grade. However, because the students in the school are all non-humans, the year group division of Chongshen's experiment is as follows:

In the first grade, he opened his mind and could hear and hear people's speech, but he had not yet been able to transform into a human form; In the second grade, he can transform into a human form but his body is unstable, and often whoever falls in physical education class will roll out a lot of hair balls, and then he can't become a human being; In the third grade, he can maintain his human form for more than four hours a day, and can control whether he is transformed or not; In the fourth grade, he can maintain his human form for more than eight hours a day, and knows how to disguise himself as an ordinary child in human society; The requirement for entering the fifth grade is to be able to maintain a human form throughout the day, and to be able to distinguish the difference between the three views of human society and the three views of non-human intelligent creatures.

Therefore, in the Chongshen experiment, students who have repeated grades for more than ten years in the first grade are also very demonic, and they will definitely not be laughed at.

Therefore, the problem of Mei Chinese New Year's Eve is not to teach those little demons all kinds of normal knowledge points, but to teach those little demons, how ordinary humans speak.

That's tricky.

As an ordinary human, Mei Chinese New Year's Eve can't summarize how ordinary humans speak.

Is it a dime different from the female colleagues in the office?

Just when he was entangled, a meal card was pushed in front of him: "Why are you sad?" ”

The hand was Mr. Bai's hand, and the voice was Mr. Bai's voice, so Mr. Mei didn't look up, continued to lie on the dining table that had been wiped by the canteen staff, put the meal card in his pocket, and whispered to Mr. Bai about his troubles.

"You can't compare yourself to the teachers in the language department." Mr. Bai put down the plate in his hand, sat down, and naturally picked up a few pieces of braised chicken and put them into Mr. Mei's rice bowl, "The entry standard of the language group has always been that those who have lived in human society for more than 300 years without being discovered have hidden their identities - before you joined, the only precedent for breaking the standard was Mr. Zhou Mingse Zhou. Her original body is a fountain pen used by a writer in modern times, and she can meet the opportunity because she has been irrigated by the great writer's painstaking literary thinking for many years, so when people's spiritual wisdom has not yet been transformed, they have already understood the literature and various trends of thought in the human world. ”

Teacher Mei thoughtfully: "So, in fact, I should change the object of comparison?" ”

"That's right." Mr. Bai suddenly had a good idea, and smiled, "Please take leave in the afternoon, I will take you to the urban village, and you can observe those demons and ghosts who have not integrated into human society." ”

"Huh? But will the leaders agree? "Teacher Mei is very excited about this proposal, he really needs to distinguish the difference between the way humans and demons speak, and even if he has to face those demons who have not integrated into human society and may be a little vicious, Mr. Bai will protect him.

Mr. Bai said step by step: "How can you disagree, this is a necessary inspection activity to complete the teaching task, you think about the quality of teaching like this, and the leader will support it if he knows it." ”

successfully abducted Teacher Mei, Bai Qi helped him and Director Wu ask for leave, and drove people to the urban village. Director Bai planned this expedition as a date in his heart, the urban village is located in the oldest Fucheng District of Jingjiang City, on the south bank of the Yangtze River, not the nearest demon settlement nearby, but it is the most fun and safest one. In the past, if you wanted to get from the north shore to the south coast, you had to take a ferry ferry. But in the nineties of the last century, the Jingjiang River built a bridge across the river, and one afternoon was enough time for him to lead Mr. Mei back and forth.

As for taking Teacher Mei out for the night, Bai Qi still doesn't dare at the moment, not to mention whether Old Man Mei will prohibit his grandson from interacting with him, Yu Xianzhen will find his trouble first.

Bai Qi parked her car in a paid parking lot near the target location and walked to it with Mei Chinese New Year's Eve. After walking around a family building community, white fog gradually rose all around, and after walking through the white fog, the urban village appeared in front of Mei Chinese New Year's Eve.

The sloping stone streets, the stone houses, some of which have wooden sheds on their terraces; There are all kinds of small stalls on both sides of the street, selling strange-looking vegetables and fruits, some daily necessities from human society and some ancient style ornaments, which are orderly in the chaos, quiet and prosperous.

It's just that the stall owners and residents on the street obviously have indelible non-human characteristics: either sheep horns, or animal ears, Mei Chinese New Year's Eve even saw a centaur haggling with a skeleton, and a fat orange cat carrying a small burden along the street to sell rat spirits.

Because although some demons are not bad in nature, they are really vicious, Mr. Bai is worried that Mei will be frightened on Chinese New Year's Eve, and he also wants to take the opportunity to enjoy a little benefit, so he proposed: "If you are afraid, hold my hand tightly." ”

Mei Chinese New Year's Eve nodded and held Mr. Bai's right hand with kindness.

The two walked along the stone road hand in hand, Mr. Bai was enjoying the psychological pleasure of pressing the road, and Mei Chinese New Year's Eve was listening to the conversation of the demons and ghosts, and made some preliminary judgments.

First of all, the accent, most of the inhabitants here speak with very strange pronunciations and tones, just as native speakers of other language families forcibly learn the Chinese dialect; Different types of demon accents are not the same, and ghosts, artifacts, or demons with shapes such as parrots and wrens have a much lighter accent problem, which is probably related to the different structures of vocal organs.

Then there's the grammar problem. The order of speech here is very confusing, often with a noun being said first, followed by an adjective in the form of a complement, which does not form a coherent sentence – this problem is probably due to a low level of education, a small vocabulary, and a lack of linguistic contact with people. Even in humans, in the absence of normal language communication for a long time, the language function will deteriorate, as long as the corresponding training is carried out, which is easier to solve than the problem of physical accent.

Teacher Mei, who gradually found the way, was a little excited, and she couldn't care about the slightly treacherous atmosphere of the urban village. After walking for a while, Mr. Bai proposed to sit in the tea shop in the village for a while and listen to how the people in the tea shop chatted and talked. Mei Chinese New Year's Eve gladly agreed, took Bai Qi's hand and followed him into a small courtyard.

In the small courtyard is a tea shop, with tables and chairs in the open air, and there are many tea customers, but they all have strange heads and strange faces; Only Dr. Tea and the account room on the counter look quite human. There is a water sign hanging on the cabinet, although the characters are square Chinese characters, every Chinese New Year's Eve is recognized; But when those words were combined into words, he didn't know what was written.

Mr. Bai pulled Mei Chinese New Year's Eve to find a corner to sit down, looked at the water card, and ordered two bowls of sweet soup and a few snacks.

"Don't worry, the ingredients used to make these foods are not fruits and vegetables from the present world, but they are not from the underworld, so you can eat them with confidence." Mr. Bai sandwiched a piece of pastry on the plate in front of Mei Chinese New Year's Eve, and then added uneasily, "If someone takes you to Artemisia, you must not eat anything anywhere, you can't come back after eating, you know?" ”

"I remember." Mei Chinese New Year's Eve carefully wrote down Mr. Bai's advice, and then tasted the pastry. This dim sum is not delicate, it is just a mahjong-like square, the texture of the skin and the taste of the filling are very similar to pineapple cake, but the diced fruit inside is more fragrant than pineapple, the fiber is finer, and the chew is more crispy.

Mei Chinese New Year's Eve finally understood what the "crisp pai gow" on the water card was.

Sweet soups and other snacks also taste good.

After enjoying a delicious afternoon tea, the two went out of the door of the tea shop, Director Bai was proposing to buy some trinkets that could not be seen in the world and then go back, it was very good to be a souvenir during the New Year's Festival, a young woman with simple clothes and a skeleton on her left hand staggered into Mei Chinese New Year's Eve's arms.

The woman smiled coquettishly in her crow-like voice: "Noble, buy some flowers, you see how fresh these flowers are!" ”

He held the woman steady, and when he looked down at the basket, he saw what flowers were inside. It's all paper flowers on wreaths! Surprised, a black gas suddenly burst out of the woman's basket and hit Mei Chinese New Year's Eve's brain. Mei Chinese New Year's Eve only had time to see Director Bai fix the woman with a piece of rune paper, and she lost consciousness.

He...... Where is this?

Mei looked around on Chinese New Year's Eve and found that she was floating in mid-air, her body was transparent, but she couldn't move. He was floating in a courtyard with blue tiles and white walls, and a young girl stood on the steps in front of the hall, her appearance was plain, but her figure was as tall as a bamboo, she was wearing a Suluo soap-edged robe embroidered with stars, a large Suluo belt with soap-colored thin edges was tied around her waist, she was wearing a white gauze square scarf with a high brim, and she was holding a bronze cast zhang in her hand.

There seems to be some kind of inscription cast on the bronze zhang, which is a kind of writing unknown to him; But he had a vague thought in his heart, those eight words, written "The moon is full of flowers, shining under the spring".

As if she couldn't see him, the girl just raised her chin and sang with a solemn and sympathetic expression: "Whose land is in Artemisia? Why is the ghost in a hurry? The long banner calls for people's lives in panic, and the wind is like dew. The Ming Dynasty of Luxi has fallen even more, and the twilight of life and death have been reunited. Who's in Artemisia? There is no foolishness in gathering the souls of the dead. The debris falls and falls, and the clouds rise and fall like tides. How can the tide hesitate, and the spring and autumn have their own period. ”

There were a lot of people standing in the hall, tall, short, fat, thin, men, women, old and young, I don't know how many, densely packed together, all dressed in white clothes, but there was no embroidery, no soap, no big belt, it looked like a nest of noodles and bags became fine.

These people sang softly under the lead of the girl, and the sound quality was ethereal like the cold wind passing through the street at midnight, and the lyrics were too realistic, and the tone was too sad, and it was creepy for no reason: "...... The eternal spring and autumn have their own period...... When will the rivers come back? Steaming clouds and turning rain to clear the pool. Q: When will you return when you die? Returning to the world with a womb. The past is all gone, and the children are all broken from the old years......"

After singing a funeral song, the girl seemed to suddenly notice something, her eyes suddenly looked at him, the clumsy bronze zhang in her hand skyrocketed to seven feet seven inches seven minutes long, the girl held the bronze and jumped up, the sleeves of the robe flew up, and the tip pointed straight in the direction where he was.

Mei Chinese New Year's Eve couldn't move, and her heart was bitter, so she could only swallow her saliva and prepare to resist hard, but this thing was really sharp visually, and it was estimated that she could easily stab him through the ......

As soon as he was so nervous, his focus became a little strange: obviously he was such a bronze Zhang with the temperament of a magic weapon, and he was obviously a petite and cute girl, wouldn't it be more stylish to recite a spell with a delicate magic weapon, why did he have to become bigger and use it as a murder weapon......
