Chapter 40: Harmless Elves
"Most of the people in my family went to the first university, but they generally went to Alpha College. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis year, my cousin and I broke into Jiuyou Academy, and the faces of those old antiques at home were scared white. Li Meng folded her fingers with great interest: "My notice was sent by my cousin." She is also a freshman at Jiuyou Academy this year, so the school gave her both of our notices and asked her to pass them on to me. ”
Let her take care of you at school, Zheng Qing complained silently in his heart.
"My sister is ranked third among this year's freshmen, and I'll let her cover you when I turn around, and everything has me!" Little Lori patted her chest and was arrogant.
Xiao Xiao glanced up at Zheng Qing.
"I woke up in the morning and felt the notice at the bedside. To be honest, this sudden appearance of this strange thing scared me so much that I almost changed all the talismans in the house. Zheng Qing couldn't help but laugh when he remembered the morning he received the notice.
"What about you? Watermelon Head. Li Meng looked at Xiao Xiao unceremoniously.
"Me?" Xiao Xiao glanced at her and put away the brush in his hand: "I am a special recruit to enter the school, and there is no admission letter." ”
Zheng Qing didn't immediately ask Xiao Xiao what was a special recruitment.
He was covering his hair vigilantly, looking nervously at a small elf floating in front of him.
This elf was dressed in the same crisp uniform as the flight attendant, with a pale green glow all around it, and the filament tentacles on the top of its head trembled slightly, staring at a pair of big dark eyes, and screaming incessantly.
"What are they going to do!" he exclaimed, a little nervously.
"Just a little drink, why are you so nervous. Li Meng poked his little face with his index finger and stuck out his little tongue: "Shame, they are all college students, and they are still afraid of elves!"
Zheng Qing's face immediately turned red, and he noticed that under the elf's thin arm was dragging a huge glass bottle, and the orange drink in the bottle was bubbling.
"I'm not scared, it's just that I've been attacked by these little things before and I feel like I need to be careful. He put down his hand covering his hair and emphasized, "Haven't you been attacked by these little things?"
The magical experience of Shangyuan Bookstore Refining Bookstore made him unforgettable. Whether it was the old bookmaker's rough blood magic, or the strange behavior of those elves pulling his hair, he remembered it vividly.
"Magical Biological Realm, Alchemical Biology, Elven Class, Winged Order, Pixie Family, Plant Genus, Green Pixie Species. Xiao Xiao stared at the elf floating in the air, and said quickly: "This is an extremely gentle magical creature, and there is almost no active attack on humans. In the "Magical Creature Illustrated Book" released by the Wizarding Alliance, it is listed as a completely harmless creature, and the danger level is even lower than that of slugs. ”
Zheng Qing blinked. He barely understood the last sentence, this kind of elf is a harmless creature.
"I'm a scholar!" Li Meng looked at Xiao Xiao with a shocked expression, and his mouth burst out with foul words that did not match his identity and age: "Just now you said that you have a special enrollment, is that what you mean? Are you the first freshman in Jiuyou Academy this year? What is your score in the unified examination of the Global Wizarding High School? How old are you this year?"
The little girl squirmed around in her seat, trying to attract Xiao Xiao's attention. The pigeon flapped its wings and cooed with her. Poseidon, who was hiding in Zheng Qing's arms and resting, was woken up by these noises and squeaked dissatisfiedly. The elf floating in mid-air looked frightened, and the drink bottle in his hand was dangling, as if he would fall to the ground at any time, and Zheng Qing's heart was shocked when he saw it.
Xiao Xiao didn't speak, just helped his big black-framed glasses and glanced at Zheng Qing.
Zheng Qing hadn't recovered from the blow of the 'harmless creatures', and his mind was full of thoughts about where he had sinned against these little guys.
Seeing Xiao Xiao's eyes, he immediately shouted: "I really didn't provoke them, they took the initiative to attack me!"
"Magical creatures do have some natural instability, but any unstable outburst has its causes. Xiao Xiao took a transparent glass from the dining car next to him and put it on the small table.
The elf dragged the huge drink bottle and screamed, filling his cup with the orange drink.
"Aren't you going to have some?" he raised his glass to Zheng Qing and Li Meng: "Sugar-free orange juice is very good for the body." ”
"I want green bees!" Li Meng actively raised his hand and called.
"Minors are not allowed to drink alcohol. Xiao Xiao shook her head and handed her a glass of orange juice.
Li Meng muttered, pouted, and took it.
"I want water. Zheng Qing sighed and looked at Xiao Xiao.
"You're twelve?" Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows.
Zheng Qing hung his head and went to find the cup by himself.
After the elf who delivered the drink left, the conversation in the cubicle unconsciously returned to the notice.
Every time he thinks of his notice, Zheng Qing always has a desire to complain: "Don't you think this way of delivering notices is a little, well, a little impolite?"
"Polite?" Xiao Xiao put down the drink in his hand and opened his black-shell notebook curiously.
"I just don't pay much attention to other people's privacy. In fact, the school can have stuffed this thing into the mailbox and mailed it to us. Zheng Qing complained: "Or make a phone call to inform." At least it doesn't scare people out of heart disease. ”
"For wizards, only the soul is recognized as privacy. Xiao Xiao was very disapproving, and the pen in his hand brushed on the notebook: "As for the way the school delivers the notice, I know a little." This delivery method, along with the school's method of selecting students, is part of some of the old formations of First University, and is not controlled by the school's wizards. Naturally, there will be some abruptness and recklessness. ”
Zheng Qing remembered what Thomas had said, and somewhat understood what Xiao Xiao meant.
"But I still don't think it's a good habit. Zheng Qing still insisted on his own ideas.
"The power of habit is necessary and ingrained everywhere and in any force. In other words, habits make traditions, and traditions sustain society. First University is no exception, and it is also a society structured by various customs and traditions. Xiao Xiao brought the topic to a more esoteric level.
"Well, that makes sense. Zheng Qing felt that the conversation between the two was a bit difficult: "It's just that although it is understandable to treat tradition as tradition, it is also necessary to carry out necessary development and improvement in the process of inheritance." So I still think there is something to be improved in the way schools deliver their notices. ”
"Tradition is not static. Xiao Xiao's face showed a hint of seriousness: "But no matter what, the current traditions are still continuing, and we can only accept these traditions." ”
The blue tilted its head and silently stared at its mink.
Shi Yuan quietly counted his prayer beads.
Li Meng blinked and looked blankly at the two people in the conversation.
Zheng Qing's heart suddenly rose with a sense of solemnity.
