Chapter 226: Fat Rui
Silent Forest Edge.
A clearing under a rejuvenating poplar.
Five figures in dragonskin hunting robes were divided into two rows, sitting quietly cross-legged in the snow. Zheng Qing was in front, and the other four were behind, sitting one step away from their captain.
The dragon skin hunting suits they wore were the hunting team equipment that Xin Fatzi had been thinking about before, and it cost a lot of money for the Sin Hunting Team, and most of the resources of the hunting team that were already stretched thin because of the opening of the store were consumed - if it weren't for Zheng Qing who could prepare talismans for everyone, the fat man could help mix the necessary potions, and the elder could ask for some second-hand tools from his brother, then this winter hunt, the Sin Hunting Team could declare the mission a failure without setting off.
Opposite the five hunters of the Sin Hunting Team, they corresponded one by one, and several rows of rat wolves of different colors and sizes were filled. As the dangerous creatures that were highlighted in the hunting area of the Hunting Expedition, these small-looking rat wolves do not seem to be as 'vicious' as described in the documents issued by the Hunting Committee. Of course, this does not rule out that everyone is born from each other, or is affected by an unconscious Party A.
And on the head of the stoat, located in the center of the front of the rat wolves, sat a rat-like creature with ochre-colored skin.
That is, Fei Rui.
It was already about three o'clock in the afternoon.
First University's annual winter hunt has also been going on for most of the day. Seeing that there is less than half a day left before the end of the first day. As long as they survive the remaining two days like this, and then turn in all the prey arranged by the school, then each of the young wizards who participate in the winter hunt will receive an objective amount of credits.
But it is clear that the foreseeable future has nothing to do with the Sin Hunters.
Because there was a traitor in the Sin Hunting Team.
Their captain, the famous Merlin Medal winner of the First University, and a publicly-funded student of the Nine Colleges had a deep friendship with their prey!
It's just a bloody TV series at eight o'clock.
"Why can't the school arrange some wild demons for us to hunt?!" Elder Zhang sat in the snow, ten fingers apart, inserted between his short hair, scratched his head vigorously, his face was full of decadence, and his tone was a little desperate: "How do you look at the situation that you can't fight now......? If it were a wild demon, this embarrassing situation wouldn't have happened......"
"It's hard to say...... I have reservations about your opinion. Fat Xin pinched his chin and reminded in a thoughtful tone: "As far as our captain gives me, if one day he introduces us to a fallen wizard, and then introduces us with a grin, 'This is my old friend, a good lich who doesn't eat wizards, please take care of me', it doesn't feel like I'm going to surprise me at all." β
"After all, there is a lack of traditional wizard education, and the understanding of demons is not deep enough. Dylan commented sharply.
"What innocent children. Xiao Xiao, who was sitting next to him, scoffed at everyone's discussion: "The school didn't arrange a wild demon for us, just because this place is still near the school." If a group of uncontrolled and dangerous creatures appeared on the edge of the Silent Forest, then the lives of both the residents of Beta Town and the students of First University would be threatened, and it was no joke. β
"Besides, the world is so big. There are not only wizards and demons in this world. In addition to demons, hunters have countless prey that they can hunt...... Like those hunting teams that conquer the New World, most of their opponents are natives of other worlds, not demons from the same origin as us. β
"If your eyes have been limited to demons throughout, then I can be sure that you have not yet grown into a proper hunter. β
", why do you look so much like my eldest brother when you say this!" Zhang Jixin turned sideways exaggeratedly, with a ghostly look on his face.
Dr. Xiao lowered his eyelids and ignored him.
Zheng Qing did not participate in the eager and whispered discussion of his companions. At this moment, he was sitting in front of the others, with a straight face, looking at Fei Rui who was one step away with a serious face.
Fei Rui sat on the head of the ferret, yawning boredly, and looked like he could fall asleep at any time. But the ferret sitting under its ass showed a diligent and conscientious attitude throughout, and seemed to be more reliable than their handle.
"Don't you think you should say something?" Seeing that the fat rat was about to fall asleep, Zheng Qing finally couldn't help it and spoke.
Fei Rui lifted his spirits a little.
"What do you say?" it squinted, raised an eyelid, and snorted in a reluctant tone, "Why do we sit in this cold and snowy daze? I know that your hunting team has a warm and safe hut, why can't we go and sit in the house and have a cup of hot tea and chat? Blowing a cold breeze in the snow is not a serious hospitality!"
Although its current appearance looks a little cute, the tragic male duck voice has destroyed this loss of cuteness, so that no one can get close.
Publicly-funded students are no exception.
"We're not serious people, and you're not a guest. Zheng Qing decisively rejected Fei Rui's idea, and at the same time reminded: "I mean, don't you think you should tell me why you lived in my house, and how did you come to Phuket, or how did you become the target of Winter Hunting?"
"I'm not in the mood," Fei Rui pursed his lips and said lazily, "I just want to lie in a warm room and drink hot milk tea now...... It would be even better if there were dried fruits and roasted nuts in the vocabulary set as a milk tea companion. β
Hearing the three words of the Hui Ziji, Zheng Qing became more and more sure of the guess in his heartβfrom beginning to end, he had not talked about anything that happened in the bookstore at home. In this way, it is debatable where Fei Rui learned about the Hui Zi set.
"After eating rat food for more than ten years, I always thought that your appetite was very simple. The young student said sarcastically.
"That's stupid, it's nothing to do with me. Fei Rui immediately shook his little paws, and cleared the meaning of Zheng Qing's words: "As for appetite...... My appetite has always been very simple, when there are conditions, milk tea can be drunk, dried fruits can be eaten, and you can bring me a dozen spicy crayfish is no problem; β
"Rat food......? It is nutritious, rich in flavor, and rich in color...... No matter which way you look at it, it's much better than eating steel bar. β
Zheng Qing gritted his teeth.
That's what he hates about the wizarding world.
You never know when something magical will happen to you that shatters your preconceived notions, and you have nothing to say but passively accept it.
