Chapter 237: Yelena's teammates
When Zheng Qing found Elena, she was standing next to the mistletoe and chatting with a few strange wizards.
As Jiang Yu said, the gypsy witch wore the bohemian dress given to her by Zheng Qing today, the amaranth red silk added a bit of dignified temperament to the usually lively witch, and the golden runes hidden in the folds loomed in the blue and white light of the lampworms, complementing the five-colored tassels on her belt.
Seeing the figure of the public scholarship student, the gypsy witch jumped happily and waved her hand. For a while, the corners of the skirt were flying, and Pei Yu Mingluan.
Several luminous finches standing on the arch seemed to be infected by the witch's enthusiasm, and they spread their wings and began another round of joyful dance.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time...", she half-snorted, and dragged the young public-funded student past the young student and brought it to a few strange wizards: "This is my teammate in this freshman competition, let's get to know each other." ”
The rich aroma wafted to the witch as she tugged at the witch, and he noticed a necklace of rouge pearls hanging around the witch's neck, and the little resentment that had been accumulated seemed to be melted away by this fragrance.
Even the gaze that led him to look at his witch teammates was much gentler.
"This is Adam Carlisle O'Brien," Elena tilted her head slightly, and introduced to Zheng Qing, "The hunter of our hunting team is good at ancient magic scripts, especially the ancient Fausak script of Scandinavia...... Oh, by the way, he's also very good at talismans, and you should have a lot in common. ”
Adam Carlisle O'Brien was a young wizard with blue-gray eyes, light hair, almost white, and a long black velvet gown with a soft dragon-bellied leather collar that glistened in the light of the lamps.
"In front of Zheng Qing, no one dared to say the words 'good at talismans'. The young wizard of the O'Brien family smiled modestly, reached out to take the public student's hand, and shook it, "It's a pleasure to meet you...... The people in the fort have a high opinion of you. ”
Fort Li, which means the people in the Alpha Castle, is a name given by the Alpha to their own people. Of course, only wizards of an ancient family like O'Brien occasionally use this kind of rhetoric these days.
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. Zheng Qing also waved his hand modestly, but the smile on his lips couldn't be contained.
Being praised is a joyful thing.
Being praised by a very powerful person, the sense of recognition obtained is better than that of ordinary people, dozens or even hundreds of times, which is naturally more enjoyable.
"These two," Elena interrupted Zheng Qing and Adam's greetings, and pulled the young public scholarship student to the other side, "It's Nankai and Nanjian brothers and sisters, who serve as auxiliary hunters for our hunting team." Nankai is good at martial arts, and Nanjian is good at divination and pharmacy...... I heard Matthew say that they are from the Runan family, and they are from the same region as you, and maybe you know more than I do. ”
Zheng Qing looked at the two young wizards in front of him who were also yellow-skinned and black-haired, smiled awkwardly, and said vaguely, "Fortunately, fortunately."
He would never say in front of the guests that he had not heard of the other party's family.
Then it's not about meeting new people, it's about grudging.
"It's good to be lucky, it's good to be lucky. As his name suggests, Nankai is a very cheerful boy, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, short hair and strong muscles, and always likes to do some exaggerated movements when he speaks, giving people a relaxed feeling: "Fortunately, you didn't say any polite words of 'long admiration and long admiration' just now...... I've never felt that the Nan clan had any reputation in the wizarding world. ”
Zheng Qing was amused by his somewhat self-deprecating rhetoric, and couldn't help but defend him: "It's not because of you, it's because of me." Before coming to First University, I had little contact with the wizarding world...... I used to think that the extraordinary power of this world was only the size of a bazaar, and I never thought that there would be so many wizards in this world. ”
"Me too, me too!" Nankai seemed to find a bosom friend, and added with a fluttering eyebrow: "I used to be too, I was driven to the mountain by the old man of the family to practice my fists and feet, and I haven't come down the mountain much for more than ten years, and I have always thought that the most evil existence in the world is the group of monkeys who hit me with pine towers every day...... When I came to the school, I found that compared with those fish people in Linzhong Lake, the monkeys on the mountain are like enlightened monks who eat fasting and recite Buddha!"
This remark immediately amused everyone.
Except for the skinny little witch standing behind Nankai.
In her arms she was holding a pure white ferret—a very rare fur—and was intently playing with the mink's paws and amusing herself. The ferret seemed to be accustomed to all this, and hung lazily on the witch's arm, its round ears twitching from time to time to indicate that it was still alive.
"This is my cousin, Nan Jian. As if noticing Zheng Qing's gaze, Nankai pushed his sister forward very enthusiastically: "The personality is a little introverted, but it's cute!"
As he spoke, his fingers swiped his ears and whispered something to Zheng Qing with the shape of his mouth.
Zheng Qing blinked and opened his mouth slightly—he wanted to say that the two of them shouldn't have this tacit understanding yet, but he was embarrassed to say it so directly.
However, Nanjian helped him solve this problem.
"He's trying to tell you that I'm deaf. Nanjian turned his back to Nankai and explained to Zheng Qing without raising his head. Her voice is very delicate, perhaps because of her deafness, her voice is slightly distorted, but this does not affect her equally cheerful tone in the slightest - maybe for the Nan family, cheerfulness belongs to a family character?
"Absolutely not! It's not like this at all!" Nankai immediately jumped in front of Nan Jian, waved his hand vigorously, and emphasized: "I want to tell him that he must speak clearly, otherwise others will not be able to hear clearly......"
"Or because I'm deaf. Nanjian sighed deeply, raised his head, raised a small paw of the ferret in his arms, and shook it: "Come, Xiaoxue, say hello to our new friends." ”
The ferret snorted and shook its tail vigorously at Zheng Qing.
Zheng Qing was very suspicious that Nankai, who was standing in front of the ferret obliquely, was sprayed a little by it on his robe.
But Nankai certainly didn't notice this.
He was tilting his head sideways, holding one hand to his mouth, and whispered to Zheng Qing: "It's not me bragging, my cousin's divination skills are better than many teaching assistants at First University...... This is what Professor Yi said. ”
"Wow!" Zheng Qing glanced at the skinny witch in surprise.
As a senior professor at First University, Professor Yi's comments are obviously very unexpected. In Zheng Qing's impression, no one in the Astronomy 08-1 class has been able to get Professor Yi's heartfelt appreciation, let alone compare them with the teaching assistants in the school.
"You always say that, can you let Nanjian show you both hands. Elena seemed to be interested in the topic and immediately asked, "For example, ......"
As she spoke, she looked around for a while, and finally her eyes fell on Zheng Qing.
