Chapter 124: Gentleman III

When Mr. Wu told Zheng Qing the word 'brave and fearless', and told him that the most terrible thing in the world was 'the truth', although Zheng Qing was serious on the surface, he was a little unimpressed in his heart.

What could be more terrifying than having a forbidden spell seed in one's body? The experience of repeated times has already sharpened the nerves of a young wizard to the point of incomparably toughness.

Therefore, when he heard that demons and wizards are essentially the same, and that wizard society is also a kind of cannibalistic society, the young public-funded student has an exaggerated expression, but his mood is not too turbulent.

Then the gentleman told him that there was a Xuanhuang tree in the black prison, and the Xuanhuang fruit on it could help the demons transform and rescue the wizards who were corrupted by the demonic energy.

Zheng Qing's eyes moved slightly, and a stone was thrown into the heart lake.

Whether it is the shortcut to breaking through the great wizard and achieving legend, or the truth that the professors are busy in the black prison, it all adds a little worry to the male wizard's sudden appearance.

Then the gentleman told him that Professor Yao was an old demon who had lived for an unknown amount of time.

The pebble suddenly swelled and turned into a boulder that smashed into the mirror-smooth surface of the young wizard's heart. Zheng Qing finally felt how terrifying the 'truth' could be.

"I always thought that only children were impulsive, and adults were very sensible. The young wizard thought about what the gentleman had just said, and muttered his thoughts.

The gentleman lifted his glasses with a slight smile on his face.

"Your Excellency...... Where are there any real grown-ups. Most of the adults you see are just grown up children. Not to mention, there are many children who have never wanted to grow up. ”

Yes, all of them are little ones for you.

The young publicly-funded student sneered in his heart, and then worried: "Do the professors of the school know about this? What if Professor Yao suddenly has a big appetite one day?"

"Not everyone is able to accept the facts," Mr. replied to the second question in a little more detail after answering the first question simply and tactfully: "As for the question of appetite control...... Some of the tobacco that Lao Yao usually smokes has been soaked in wizard blood. The blood packets were provided by the school hospital, and Bella had been strict with his usage. ”

Zheng Qing tugged at the corners of his mouth.

Mrs. Bella in the university hospital has a delicate relationship with Professor Yao, and many students can see it. But before, most people, including Zheng Qing, thought that Mrs. Bella and Professor Yao were lovers when they were young.

Reality gave him a hard slap in the face.

Romantic to beautiful love is just a story in a storybook after all, and the reality has always been cruel and desperate.

"Actually, you can tell the truth. The young wizard sighed deeply and his gaze fell on a small puddle at the edge of the meadow.

Not long ago, ants crawling from the grass at his feet were staggering near the small puddle. The ginger mud dots are like a heavy net, binding the ant's legs and feet, making it struggle with every step forward.

"There's really nothing to hide. Unexpectedly, the gentleman agrees with the boy's point of view, but then makes an irrefutable analogy: "But it is like a pot that has been used for a long time, the surface is washed clean, and one day it is turned over, and the bottom is still black...... Everyone just wants to eat the delicious food stewed in the pot, and no one wants to see the black bottom of the pot. ”

"You can imagine if we told the wizards at school that the ones who like to eat your flesh are actually the same kind of beings as you, and even some of them are your familiar neighbors, friends, and colleagues...... So how terrible is the situation?"

"Most wizards can't even accept hurting a rabbit. How would they react to the fact that their neighbor or colleague was once an ogre?"

"Why do those wizards who know the truth keep their mouths shut about this kind of thing?" As soon as Zheng Qing said this question, he immediately came to his senses: "Oh, the Silent Pact!"

On his first day at the school, he signed a pact of silence with Ummer Moon Airlines, gaining custody of the elves in exchange for 'silence' about the details of the accident that happened on the plane.

After nearly a year in the school, with the occurrence of various accidents, Zheng Qingling signed many silent contracts piecemeal. So he has a very deep understanding of the binding force of this contract.

"Of course, of course. The pact of silence is naturally the most important reason. As he spoke, the gentleman took out a crumpled piece of parchment out of nowhere, and at the same time stuffed Zheng Qing with a quill and motioned for him to sign:

“...... That's why there's a monopoly on the market. But on the other hand, we can never deny that there are certain situations and wizards who break through the bonds of the pact of silence......"

As he spoke, Mr. winked at Zheng Qing:

"It's just that those wizards who can break through the shackles of the silent contract have basically developed a deep understanding of the nature of magic and wizards. Naturally, I won't tell anyone else in a big way. ”

Zheng Qing took the quill and signed it in the corner of the parchment.

Then he watched his name burn with a line of fire.

"I thought you were teaching me a lesson on how to fight demons. Zheng Qing looked at the little scorched black on the parchment, and sighed with emotion: "...... Or rather, you want to teach me how to protect the Black Prison. ”

kind of fight demons, or ...... He glanced at the gentleman's expression and said boldly, or how to protect the black prison.

Although Zheng Qing is not smart, he is not stupid either, and with a wise man like Xiao Xiao and a know-it-all like Xin Fatzi, Yousin confirmed internally a long time ago that the black prison would be attacked by demons - it is very likely that the war will affect the entire wizarding world.

Zheng Qing originally thought that this was the purpose of his husband's lesson.

The gentleman laughed.

"That little thing in the black prison can't just create one or two more ancient demons in the sky," he took off his glasses and rubbed the corners of his eyes, "Do you think I'll spend my precious time on such a trivial matter?"

Zheng Qing secretly smacked his tongue.

Perhaps only the gentleman would think that the birth of one or two ancient demons is a trivial matter.

“...... I'm giving you a lesson to show you something more essential about being a wizard. The gentleman put his glasses back on and looked at the young wizard with a much more serious expression: "It has nothing to do with magic, it has nothing to do with spells, it has nothing to do with the world...... Certain deeper, more essential concepts that exist within the wizard's body. ”

"When you come to a certain point in the future, you will realize the importance of 'essence'. But at that time, you don't have a chance to go back and correct your essence...... I'm optimistic that you can go that far. ”

"How far is that, sir?"

"Probably a little farther than I'm walking now. ”

"What is the essence of what you say, sir?"

"It's a concept of being human. It is a concept that is born out of the self and transcends the self. As the so-called gentleman and Taoist three, I am incompetent, said, the benevolent are not worried, the knower is not confused, and the brave are not afraid. ”
