Chapter 212: Knowledge and Power V
In a world where the barriers to magical knowledge are as high as mountains, it is taboo to ask directly about the secrets of magic, but this taboo is based on equality. If an eight-ring person asks about the little secret of the fourth ring, it will not involve 'taboo', but only a prelude to a clever snatch, which will slightly damage his reputation. Afterwards, even if the 'bitter master' is alive, there is no institution in the whole world to accept such cases, so they can only knock out their teeth and swallow blood to consider themselves unlucky, or change to a more 'positive' idea: they are glad that they have not been killed.
Jiao Ming doesn't have a deep understanding of this 'unspoken rule', but Evan knows it very well. Although I am not sure what Emily's heart is, and I don't know whether the reason for asking this question is a malicious intention, or just a simple curiosity, I should be cautious about it, not a death teaser.
After Evan finished speaking, seeing that there was no sign of changing his face, he secretly rejoiced, and then let go of the hand holding Jiao Ming's head and stabbed him lightly in the back.
Although Jiao Ming was a little reluctant, he still took out the translation and started to speak, as for Evan, who was listening to the teacher, he just didn't see it. Emily's emotional intelligence doesn't matter, but as a twenty-nine-year-old Qi Eight Ring, her learning ability is undoubtedly explosive, and she fully understands it after only listening to a few words, raising her hand to interrupt Jiao Ming's talking, and then staring at the translation table in a daze.
"This is binary, which is the knowledge in mathematics created by Jiao Ming. Evan seemed to guess Emily's focus and made a tentative remark.
"Binary?"
Jiao Ming was stunned by Evan again, and quickly took over the conversation, and began to popularize the concept of 'base system' with his mathematical knowledge. Alimi quickly understood again, then nodded, and trembled along with the white rabbit.
"You don't have a good talent for qi magic, but you can come up with these strange things, people should be quite smart, and you are also curious about my research direction, and I happen to lack an assistant, so I decided that it was you. Emily looked Jiao Ming up and down, left and right, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she became.
Jiao Ming was stunned again, 'curiosity' was just a pretext, did this woman really believe it, and she didn't say the specific direction of research. What's more, he is more or less a strategist of the crocodile collar, not an idler, and the other party decided to recruit without asking, what is the reason? Just as he hesitated, he felt a strong force coming from the back of his head, and his head was lowered again.
"Thank you for your attention, I am grateful, this friend of mine has never seen the world, and I am so happy that I don't know how to answer, so I thank you for him. β
Alimi nodded in satisfaction, dropped the phrase 'see you tomorrow at noon,' and left briskly.
"We know each other well, next time you dare to press my head, I'll turn my face!" Jiao Ming slapped Evan's hand away, and then said: "Don't make decisions for me without authorization, what's the situation with this assistant?"
"In addition to the Academy of Magic, another more common way to advance is to be an assistant, an apprentice, and finally a disciple. And as far as I know, this Emily is the new Eighth Ring, and she has not yet begun to look for her subordinates. Evan first explained, and finally said: "If you don't want to, it's very simple, buy a stupid one tomorrow, and you can be kicked out." β
Jiao Ming is not stupid, he understands that this is simply an opportunity for the chief disciple of the Nine Rings Master, and it is indeed a pity to miss it. Reversed the situation, if Evan was overwhelmed by Tsinghua professor's invitation to graduate students, he would accept it for him for the time being.
Seeing the change in Jiao Ming's expression, Evan smiled slightly, sat back in his seat and picked up the book, and said, "It's another favor." β
"Think beautiful!" Jiao Ming immediately retorted: "You pressed my head twice, which made me very unhappy, how can this be counted?"
"Then you can press back, I don't care, but I care about this favor. Evan said and patted the side of his head, even lazy and elegant.
Jiao Ming stretched out his hand, but he couldn't press it down, and snorted: "Keep an account of this matter, as for this assistant, I may not be willing, and it is unacceptable." β
Not counting Binglian's reminder last night, Jiao Ming also knew that personal debts were the most difficult to repay, and Evan was a shrewd person, if he could not owe, he would not owe, and even if he owed, he would have to find a way to escape.
"It's very simple, for thirty days, if you are kicked out within thirty days, I will never mention it again. How?"
Jiao Ming is not a person who messes around, such conditions are really speechless, so he sat down angrily and said: "I am a person with a bottom line, and you don't have too much hope for the request of human favors." β
"Thanks for the reminder, but rest assured, I'll be on your line. β
Jiao Ming was choked by this 'edge ball' declaration, gritted his teeth, snorted and stopped talking, and lowered his head to read the book.
......
In the evening, Jiao Ming and Binglian completed the routine contact with the crocodile leader, and then talked about the matter in the afternoon, but Binglian said that this favor was worth it: "Not to mention that I will protect you from the hands of the strong man of the Eight Rings, this apprenticeship alone is something that many people can't ask for." Then he grabbed Jiao Ming's ear again, and said sharply to Jiao Ming's ear with a bit of hatred: "You dare to tease the magician of the Eight Rings, really everyone is as good at talking as Master Mar?"
"I was wrong, I'll only tease you one in the future. β
Binglian was stunned when she heard this, and her strength in pinching her ears loosened slightly, but then she increased her strength and said, "You must treat me seriously, and you are not allowed to flirt." β
"Yes, yes, you can do whatever you want. Jiao Ming took the ice lotus over, his thighs and arms felt the plump and plump body of the beautiful woman in his arms, but his face was serious and brought the topic back to business: "Does Xiaoshi transfer an eyebrow?"
"I was about to talk about it, but there are three options for you to hear. One is Lilmaule's aristocratic academy, but Xiaoshi does not have a noble title, and only has a three-ring talent, which means I guess you can imagine. β
"Discriminatory?"
Binglian nodded. "And if the poems are tainted with some aristocratic habits in order to fit in with the group, you may not like them.
Jiao Ming thought of another question: "Liermele, are they okay?"
"When a group of people is quarantined, it doesn't matter if they are quarantined. But if you say that, if you skip a grade for a year, it's not bad to take classes with Lilmaul and them. β
Jiao Ming pondered for a moment, still shook his head, and said: "Xiao Shi is stupid, if he can't keep up with the progress, it will dampen his enthusiasm for learning, let's talk about the other two." β
"A school composed entirely of civilians, most of the teachers are from the fourth to the sixth ring, and they work in the workshops in the business district on weekdays, and spend their spare time tutoring children with magical talents, which can be regarded as earning some small money to supplement the family. β
"That's unprofessional, isn't it?"
"This is not your hometown, there is no 'compulsory' education. The forces that set up schools to recruit students will inevitably have something to appeal to with magical knowledge as bait. β
Jiao Ming sighed, knowing that he couldn't ask too much, even if it was compulsory education on the earth, it was for the purpose of the country as a whole to train the next generation of citizens, and considering that education appropriation was also a tax, it was not an 'obligation' in nature, so he had to ask the third option.
"It's a shipyard, recruiting assistants of earth-based magicians, and the general boss is a master of earth-based nine rings, so you don't have to worry about learning this aspect of real talent, but you need to work. With Xiao Shi's earth-based magic ability, he should be able to be recruited as a formal apprentice to a certain master very quickly. β
The corners of Jiao Ming's mouth twitched again when he heard this, how could he bear to let Xiaoshi go to work as a child laborer and suffer hardships?
After separating from Binglian, Jiao Ming lay on the bed tossing and turning, and these three choices were circling in his mind, and it was difficult to choose. Turning his head to look at Xiao Shi who was sleeping, there was only a faint outline of the black and swarthy, but the smooth and regular breathing sound made Jiao Ming very relieved. At this moment, the window flashed, and a human figure that was shiny like a neon tube suddenly appeared.
Jiao Ming was almost scared to death, and after seeing it clearly, he recognized that this was the thin crocodile like a crocodile leader in the state of magic activation, and he was also Xia Feng's father, and he still didn't remember his name.
"Big ...... Uncle, what are you?"
"There are fluctuations in the Holy Demon Sea, are you okay?" Xia Feng's father's gaze scanned the room.
The magician extracts energy from the Holy Demon Sea through a magical medium, and what Xia Feng's father means by this is because someone has performed the magic of the other three systems here, so that there are ripples in the Holy Demon Sea here, which is a precautionary means that only people who are very sensitive to the Holy Demon Sea or the powerhouses of the Nine Rings have. However, since Xia Feng's father did not have the talent of the other three lines, he couldn't judge more.
Jiao Ming knew that things were not simple, so he woke up Xiaoshi to confirm that it was safe and then searched in the room, and easily found a note on the desktop that should not have existed, and with the luminous effect of the strong man of the nine rings, he could see the words on it clearly: Stay away from my Emily.
"Emily?" Xia Feng's father muttered, and then glared at Jiao Ming with strange eyes. Xia Feng's father came to the Advanced Magic Academy as a professor, and he was also the head teacher of the second class of the last water department, and he was in the same circle of teachers, so he naturally knew who Emily was.
"Misunderstanding!" Jiao Ming hurriedly clarified: "In the afternoon, Teacher Emily saw that my qi talent was good, and accepted me as an assistant, but I was just an assistant, not even an apprentice. β
Xia Feng's father waved his hand, leaving a word of caution and reconciliation, and disappeared into the window.
"What the hell is going on!" Jiao Ming scolded secretly, and then thought about being able to hide his perception and cast spatial teleportation, at least six rings, and then guessed from the note soaked in male hormones, he should not be very old, and his heart is a little peaceful. I wanted to tear up the note, but I thought it might be an excuse to get rid of Evan's personal debt, so I put it away. first coaxed Xiaoshi to sleep, Jiao Ming then lay back on the bed, and then after this trouble, he forgot the three options for transferring to another school and fell asleep.
......
At noon the next day, Jiao Ming reported to Emily in the teacher's office as agreed, and after saying a few words, Emily pointed to a pile of books on the desk and asked Jiao Ming to move to the third class of the first grade of the Qi Department.
Jiao Ming blinked his eyes twice when he heard this, and he always felt that something was strange, but he still did as he was told, and just after he walked out of the door, he bumped into the ice lotus running over.
"So coincidentally?"
Binglian didn't answer, but gave Jiao Ming a blank look, but took half of the book stack from Jiao Ming's arms and hugged it in the same posture.
"Is this ......?" Jiao Ming saw that the ice lotus was coming for him, it was not a coincidence, but it was still inexplicable.
Binglian didn't seem to be relieved, and raised her little foot to kick lightly on Jiao Ming's calf. Jiao Ming wanted to ask again, but he heard the sound of the door opening behind him and Alimi's question: "This is ......"
"I'm Jiao Ming's fiancΓ©e. β
Emily let out an understated 'oh' and turned and walked towards the classroom.
Jiao Ming only realized at this time that he was jealous, and remembered last night's note, and suddenly seemed to be drowned in the blood of the youth campus idol drama, and was speechless for a while. Then he looked at the ice lotus with a smile and admired this rare beauty. Binglian was panicked when she saw it, and lowered her voice and shouted, "What are you looking at?"
"When a woman is jealous, she is the second most beautiful, and of course she can't miss it. β
Binglian stepped on Jiao Ming, and then quickly stepped forward, not talking to Jiao Ming. However, after a few steps, he slowed down and asked Jiao Ming: "What about the first beautiful time?"
Jiao Ming smiled lewdly, and when he wanted to say GC, he swallowed it back after thinking about it, and said a pun in Chinese: "You'll know in the future." β
Binglian's Chinese level was limited, so she didn't comprehend the subtlety, snorted, and then asked, "Why didn't you say that Teacher Emily is a big beauty?"
"You didn't ask. Jiao Ming shook off the accusation.
"Next time it's like this, it must be reported!"
"You don't have to be so strict, right?"
The two began to argue about this matter, whispering until the door of the third class of the first year of the Qi Department.
"Send it one by one, and wait for me in the library. Emily casually commanded, and turned to enter the classroom. And Jiao Ming finally realized the problem and shouted, "Wait, that teacher Emily, I am also a student in this class." β
At the beginning, Jiao Ming's brain chose a protagonist seat, the last row by the window, and the exclusion between classmates, has completely become a transparent person in the class, and according to the old-fashioned teaching system and teaching methods of this school, the teacher has no obligation to take care of each student. Although there were so many reasons, Jiao Ming still didn't expect that this Emily was completely impressed by himself.
"Really?" Emily looked suspicious,
"It's true. β
"It's no difference, then come with me after class. Emily turned to Binglian and said, "You're also in this class?"
"I'm Binglian in the second class of the first grade of the fire department, and I'm not a student in this class. Binglian took out the demeanor of the young lord, which was very different from the appearance of the girl who had just been jealous.
"Hey, fire. Emily repeated softly, then said no more, turning to enter the classroom.
Binglian stuffed all the books in Jiao Ming's arms, left a warning look, and ran to her classroom. The smile on Jiao Ming's face froze the moment he entered the door, just because he realized a big problem, he was a transparent person to distribute books, which was simply a public execution.
However, I thought that the person who handed out the books on the first day of school was dressed as a male servant, and he was different, his identity was a student, and he had no obligation to serve everyone, so it was right to copy the method of the year. Thinking of doing it, Jiao Ming divided the books according to the number of people and placed them on the table of the first student in each column, and said expressionlessly: "Please pass the books on." Without waiting for everyone to react, he took a book and returned to his seat.
The entire classroom was eerily silent for more than ten seconds, and then several people in the first line finally acted according to Jiao Ming's words. [.]
