Chapter 131: Under the Tree
Torrential rains in summer are short-lived.
When Zheng Qing left the study room and came outside, the sky was already clear. The orange sun hides behind a thin layer of clouds, like a ripe orange.
There was a fresh smell of after-rain all around, mixed with the gradually steaming air, which slightly diminished the uneasiness in his chest.
"Slow down," the witch whispered behind her, "the road is slippery after the rain." ”
Zheng Qing turned his head, and the confused look in his eyes faded a little.
It was only then that Zheng Qing realized that he had been grabbing Jiang Yu's wrist.
"Hug ...... I'm sorry!" The wizard's hand seemed to have been stung by a wasp, but he suddenly let go, his face turned red rapidly, and he stammered and explained, "Just now, just now, I was in a hurry...... It really wasn't intentional. ”
After waking up from his sleep, for some reason, his brain twitched, and after jumping up from the circle chair, he dragged Jiang Yu and ran outside the study room. The others sat in place in a daze, as if they hadn't reacted for a while-Li Meng, who was listening to Jiang Yu's lecture, might have reacted, but she couldn't wait to stay away from her cousin, so naturally she wouldn't make a sound.
At that time, Zheng Qing's idea was very simple, go to the cat fruit tree, catch the wizard who was 'scribbling' on the black cat throne, and if possible, it was best to twist him to a gray-robed school worker or a certain professor.
And dragging Jiang Yu is because Jiang Yu also has a little 'share' in that 'throne', and the wizard feels that he should take her.
But when I got out of the study room, as soon as the soft and humid wind blew after the rain, the young public-funded students immediately came to their senses.
What is he doing?!
It's just a dream! His reaction was a little too big!
Even if that dream was true, there was no need to be in such a hurry, not to mention that he still ran out with Jiang Yu's hand in front of everyone-Zheng Qing could fully imagine how the group of bad friends in the dormitory would be heckled after returning to the dormitory tonight, if he was unlucky, he would feel a storm of ridicule when the class meeting was held in the evening.
The young public student wrinkled his face, as if he had just eaten a bitter gourd.
Maybe it was a little hurry to follow the male witch, Jiang Yu's cheeks were slightly red, and his breath was a little uneven. She settled down, then rubbed her wrist and smiled easily: "It's okay...... Is there something going on with coming out in such a hurry? It has something to do with Senior Colmar?"
Because she had encountered the projection of the outer gods and the dark wizard with Zheng Qing in the North District, coupled with the recent news related to the outer gods in the newspapers, her first reaction was that something happened in the North District.
"No, it's not. ”
Zheng Qing hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "It's a cat fruit tree......
Before he could finish speaking, he immediately regretted it.
Although Jiang Yu knew that he was the black cat, and he also guessed that Jiang Yu was the little white cat, the two of them had a tacit understanding and never discussed this topic head-on - this would make it easier for them to get along after becoming cats.
Sure enough, after hearing the wizard's explanation, the flush on Jiang Yu's cheeks, which had already faded, rose again.
"Cat Fruit Tree?" the witch pursed her lips, trying to make a non-caring appearance, "Is there anything wrong with the Cat Fruit Tree?" I went there to take a look in the morning when I was running...... Everything is normal. ”
"I'm not sure either...... I accidentally fell asleep when I was just doing the problem, and then I had a dream that someone was doing something on the cat's fruit tree...... It's the usual, um, ahem, um, lying on your stomach...... Whoa!"
Zheng Qing was racking his brains to find the right words to explain his actions to the witch, and accidentally stepped into a puddle on the road, splashing his leg of muddy water.
He couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
But I don't know if I'm scolding the puddle or scolding myself.
Jiang Yu pursed his lips and smiled, took out his law book, and said softly: "Gao Gao sunrise, Xi Gu wind!"
Orange magical light poured out from the cyan magic book held by the witch, like a visible 'sun' wind, sweeping through the wizard's muddy shoes and robes.
In a moment, Zheng Qing felt comfortably dry.
He stamped his foot and patted the dry mud off his robe. The gray-white dust rose up, met the moist air, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"Yes, yes. He stopped the witch from trying to cast another cleansing charm, and laughed, "A little dirt will fall off with a few more steps...... Let's go to the Cat Fruit Tree quickly...... Well, are you going or not?"
Jiang Yu smiled, did not speak, but put away the law book, quickened his pace, and walked in front of Zheng Qing.
Zheng Qing scratched his head and scolded himself again in his heart. It's stupid to drag people out, and they're still asking if they're going to go?
The summer after the rain is refreshing and atmospheric.
When the oppressive black clouds cleared, the sky seemed far away and empty, and flocks of birds carried orange sunlight across the sky, leaving a crisp chirp. On both sides of the bluestone pavement, the rain-beaten blades of grass stick to the dirt and branches, and the fluff on the grass blades reflects the sunlight and shimmers with charming colorful light.
Inspired by the beautiful scenery, young witches and wizards walked out of the oppressive study rooms and libraries, came to the lake, came to the lawn, and greedily enjoyed the short-term freedom that had been lost for a long time.
Along the way, Zheng Qing saw no less than ten pairs of witches and wizards passing by arm-in-arm.
Most of the time, the witches passing by would show a little shyness, and the wizards would wink at the passers-by with a big grin, signaling Zheng Qing to be brave.
The predicament forced the two young wizards to move more and more quickly.
This time, not only Zheng Qing, but even Jiang Yu accidentally stepped on several small puddles. But neither of them had time to clean up, and trotted all the way to the cat fruit tree, only to brush and breathe a sigh of relief.
Smelling the familiarity, the cats poked their heads out of the branches. The timid ones shook their beards and ears at Zheng Qing, and the bold ones meowed at him twice.
Zheng Qing tilted his head and looked at his 'throne'.
It was clean, and there wasn't a single wizard in a moon-white robe doing anything.
"Maybe I'm too sensitive," the young public student breathed a sigh of relief and said to Jiang Yu with a smile: "...... Now that I think about it, when the wizard climbed the tree in the dream, it was dark, and it didn't seem to be raining...... Even if it's true, it's not necessarily what happened today. ”
Jiang Yu first cleaned the robes of the two with a cleansing spell and a dryness spell.
Then he put away the law book and looked at the cat fruit tree.
"What about the dog that learns to bark?" she chose the simplest of breakthroughs: "Didn't you dream that it was caught? ”
