Chapter 5: The Professor's Opening Remarks
The curriculum of the first university is divided into large and small courses according to the number of students, and it is divided into university-wide courses and specialized courses according to the degree of specialization, and it is also divided into compulsory courses and elective courses according to the importance of the courses. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Zheng Qing's class is the Astronomy 08-1 class, and correspondingly, the magic language class is a compulsory course for their major.
History, on the other hand, is a major elective - which means that there are subtle differences in the book list of each new student in the Astronomy 08-1 class.
Another example is the philosophy of magic, which is not mandatory in Alpha Academy and Star Academy, and is a school-wide elective course. In order to save teaching resources, students from different faculties or classes will be arranged to attend classes together. This kind of course is a large class, and the number of students in the class can sometimes reach hundreds.
Another example is the upcoming Charms class, which requires any student at the First University to earn enough credits in this course, which is a school-wide compulsory course.
The students in this class all belong to the Astronomy 08-1 class, which belongs to a small class.
Receiving the pencil drawing warning behind the door, the chaotic atmosphere in the classroom subsided slightly.
Everyone returned to their places and sat down quietly.
Zheng Qing looked at the pencil drawing curiously, and wondered:
"How did it know the professor was coming?"
"It's been on the wall longer than many professors, so it's not surprising to know what a professor looks like. Xiao Xiao put away his notebook and sat up slightly straight: "Moreover, do you think that painting only has this one foothold?"
Zheng Qing nodded as if he didn't understand.
"Thank you to our seniors who can do anything. Zhang Jixin shook his head and patted him on the shoulder.
Zheng Qing sighed and refocused his attention on the textbook that had been spread out in front of him.
He previewed the characters he couldn't read at all, trying to struggle a little more before the teacher walked in the door, so as not to appear too ugly in class.
However, if you can't understand it, you still can't understand it.
His eyes slid over the textbook, leaving no trace in his mind.
The classroom door was pushed open with a bang.
A tall, lanky figure strode onto the podium.
Zheng Qing raised his head and looked nervously at this imposing man.
The professor was draped in a black robe with fluttering feet, giving it a peculiar feeling. He had a yellowish complexion and small, but very dark, bright eyes. There are many wrinkles of various shades on his face, and although his hair is a little thin, it seems to be smooth because he has applied a lot of hair wax and other things. Although a little hunchbacked, the professor's tall stature belies this flaw, and instead gives it a sense of reliability.
Maybe forty, maybe sixty, maybe God knows how old he is.
Zheng Qing sat at the table with his head held high, thinking wildly in his head.
"My name is Yao Xiaomi, and I am your counselor, and I am also the professor of your Charms class, and I also teach the philosophy of magic in three classes, including you. ”
The wizard with the big back combed faced the new students in the classroom, and with a wave of his right hand at will, the three big characters 'Yao Xiaomi' were clearly revealed on the blackboard.
Without a pause, he continued to speak in a smiling, but very subdued tone:
"You can call me 'Lao Yao', in fact, I'm glad that some of my classmates call me in such a relaxed way. However, I resolutely oppose any of my classmates calling me 'millet', or even other names such as 'sorghum' and 'old rice'! This is a great disrespect to the professor! The impact is extremely bad!"
As he spoke, his right hand made several heavy movements from top to bottom, like those politicians on TV.
The corners of Zheng Qing's mouth couldn't help but pull up, looking at Lao Yao's actions, his heart suddenly felt a little relaxed.
But many freshmen are still basking in the sadness of the big news not long ago.
The atmosphere in the classroom was a bit dreary.
Professor Yao raised his eyebrows in surprise:
"It's weird! You're the first freshman to hear my self-introduction and not laugh. Melpomene's sigh, is there anything I don't know? ”
The classroom was still silent.
Only Li Meng's whispered sobbing could be faintly heard.
Zheng Qing looked at Xiao Xiao, his face was a little pale, and he was horrified to find that he didn't understand most of the last words that the professor said.
"Did the teacher just recite a mantra?" he asked Xiao Xiao in a low voice.
The watermelon head hung his head weakly and pushed the notebook under his hand in front of Zheng Qing.
"Melpomene, the goddess of lamentations, also called the goddess of tragedy, and her sigh means 'simply a tragedy'. Epimetheus, the foolish of gods, means 'the one who knows'. These are two sayings in the wizarding world, not spells. ”
Zheng Qing's heart was withdrawn into his stomach.
He was always worried that he would not be able to understand the lectures of the school teachers.
It's nice to have a living dictionary.
On the podium, Professor Yao put the law book on the podium, paced slowly, and walked in front of Li Meng.
"What's going on?" he patted the little girl on the head.
Li Meng was red-eyed, sobbed, and replied intermittently: "Su... Belch... Su Shijun... Yes... Belch... I have children. ”
Zheng Qing buried his head in his desk, trying not to touch the eyes of others.
He wanted to plug his ears as well.
Li Meng's words made him feel embarrassed by the onset of cancer.
He couldn't understand the little girl's star-chasing mentality.
I can't understand their mentality of interweaving fantasy with reality.
Professor Yao nodded thoughtfully:
"Don't worry about Councilor Su's affairs, and don't worry about it. The professor walked slowly around the classroom and comforted: "So far, there is only one vague message about this matter, and there is no clear statement. The school's October event has invited Councilor Su as a guest, and I will ask her to explain to you face to face when the time comes!"
As he spoke, the professor waved his arm domineeringly.
"Will she come?" asked a freshman in a whisper.
It was a disrespectful rhetorical question, but it was a question that rolled in the mind of every freshman.
It's a bit ridiculous to ask a member of the Upper Council of the Moon Lower Parliament to answer a private question to a group of freshmen in person.
"No problem!" Lao Yao replied very affirmatively, and returned to the podium: "I can still be sure of this thing." ”
The gloom in the classroom faded.
The message of being able to come face-to-face with the goddess in October dispelled the nightmare of the goddess having a child.
Vitality is back in the midst of these young people.
"Can I ask the goddess to sign my clothes?"
"Can I give the goddess a scarf?"
"Can I shake hands with the goddess?"
"What clothes am I going to wear to see the goddess!"
Almost everyone began to excitedly discuss what was going on in a month's time.
Many people are beginning to plan in detail every detail of their encounter with the Goddess.
The fat man Xin in front of Zheng Qing was even thinking about whether to lose dozens of catties of fat to prevent leaving a bad impression on the goddess.
Lao Yao looked at the chaotic classroom with a smile, without the slightest intention of stopping.
Long.
He coughed lightly.
"Ahem. Professor Yao looked at the newcomers with a smile: "In addition to today's class, you still have four classes to spare. ”
The classroom fell silent.
Everyone stared at the professor closely, trying to understand what he meant.
"I'm going to teach you two mantras this month, and only students who have mastered both mantras in their entirety will get tickets to the meetup. ”
Seeing that the classroom was about to fall into chaos again, Professor Yao raised his index finger and shook it slightly.
"Don't mess around. He shook his head slightly, with a malicious smile on his face: "Don't mess around. ”
"You have to show this month. For example, good classroom discipline and excellent homework. ”
"That's the premise of the meeting. ”
The classroom fell silent.
Zheng Qing noticed that several boys next to him even straightened up and tried to sit more straight.
He swallowed, admiring the professor's simple move.
Lao Yao looked at the restored classroom atmosphere with satisfaction and resumed the lecture:
"Very well! I hope you keep it up. ”
"So, let's move on. ”
"This is your second class at the First University. ”
"Put away your Fa books, in the first month, you were more adapted, maybe some experimental teaching, but overall, it won't be too difficult. So, you don't need to be too nervous. ”
Zheng Qing breathed a heavy sigh, quickly put away the textbook in his hand, and felt more relaxed.
"You don't have to start studying right away, you have to get used to the atmosphere, get to know your classmates, know why you're here, and understand what you're getting here. ”
