Chapter 105: The Golden Quill
Ever since his date with a gypsy witch was interrupted by the school's 'White Tower Accident on the Island in the middle of the lake', Zheng Qing has been obsessed with the small island in Linzhong Lake and the white tower on the island.
Although he signed a strict pact of silence with Elena and a certain cobra under the arrangement of the school, this did not prevent Zheng Qing from checking the materials in the library on his own in the name of studying—but unfortunately, or unsurprisingly, although the materials in the library were vast, there was very little information about the small island in Linzhong Lake.
For a week in a row, Zheng Qing dragged several members of the team to bury themselves in the library, and rummaged through the bookshelves one by one, except for finding a little information about the island in the books about the structure of the school, there was nothing else to gain.
And even that message only mentions very briefly: '... There is an island in the middle of the lake, there is a seven-storey white tower on the island, the eaves are arched, the copper bell is decorated with it, or the bell bell is synonymous, to warn the world also. ’
Hearing Zheng Qing's question, Xiao Xiao, who was burying his head in the open information, silently replied: "Area F has been passed over and confirmed that there is no information involving the island in the middle of the lake." ”
The young scholar sighed, tore his arm apart, and yawned long, his heart full of frustration.
seemed to feel the frustration in the heart of the young public scholarship student, and next to him, the fat man Xin, who was leaning on the back of the chair with his head tilted, suddenly grabbed a book covering his face, squinted his eyes, and said weakly: "Even if you find it, what can you do?" It's just to satisfy your curiosity...... After all this time, you are not the first student to be interested in the white tower on the island in the middle of the lake...... It certainly won't be the last one either. ”
"If there was really any information about the White Tower in the library, it wouldn't be called a 'real forbidden place'. ”
The words were well-founded and convincing—but this was not what Zheng Qing wanted to hear.
"It's better to have a positive attitude," the young public scholarship student shook his fingers, commanded a cane sugar warrior in the pile of books on the table to ride a sugar horse, dance a toothpick, and whip his horse, and rushed towards the fat man: "I bought you a weekend gift package in Shuangtang Ji, so that you can help me check the information, not let you come to the library to sleep!"
"Besides, if you can really find out something, won't you have the content of the hunting page of the next issue of the newspaper?
"Kill two birds with one stone? huh...... Even if I did, I doubt that the big leaders in the editorial office of the school newspaper would allow me to publish that information in the newspaper. Fat Xin sneered and pursed his lips, his tone full of boredom that saw through everything: "Comparatively, I think those clothed mice are more interesting to everyone...... Last week, there was only a short piece of news about the clothes of rats on the Hunt page, and about a hundred paper cranes flew in from wizards who claimed to have seen those rats!"
"This is one of the highest response rates in recent months. ”
"The editor-in-chief has already sent out that if I can find the mouse again and do an interview, he will help me fill out an application form for this year's 'Golden Quill'...... In previous years, only students in the third grade and above had the opportunity to participate in the selection of the 'Golden Quill'!"
"Golden quill?" Zheng Qing tilted his head, showing a somewhat interested expression: "What is that?!"
"The main board of the Betatown Post, "Magic Wand" and many other well-known media jointly participated in the famous media and the annual excellent press release selection activities. Xiao Xiao immediately dropped the information in his hand, raised his head and explained: "The famous 'Arcana' list is unveiled every year through this selection event...... According to past experience, as long as the students who get the 'Golden Quill' have no problem wanting to enter any newspaper, magazine or other media after graduation. Even if you drop out, it's no problem. ”
"Oh, I see!" Zheng Qing immediately understood, and had a more intuitive understanding of Nalaoshzi's 'golden quill pen'. At the same time, he also began to wonder if he should go outside for a stroll and change his mood: "How about the hunting team training tomorrow night? We can try to find the clothed mouse again...... If you don't have any comments, I'll start filling out the application form now, and if all goes well, I'll get a feedback letter from the school committee before the alchemy class tomorrow. ”
Today is the fourth day of the fifteenth week, and tomorrow is Friday, and the young public-funded student who has been wandering between the library and the classroom for four whole days, after hearing what Xin Fat Man has just said, suddenly has a strong urge to abandon everything to catch the little mouse in clothes.
Perhaps he was too aggressive, and the fat man sitting diagonally across from him struggled to sit up straight, bracing his arms and looking at his captain suspiciously.
"What do you want to do...... Let me state first, I don't have you as a tyrant, at most I can only provide a subsidy for chicken legs. The fat man snapped his fingers and said, "One for one person, five for five people is five." With the addition of the alternate seat and Lin Guo, I will prepare ten chicken thighs......"
"Nobody cares about your chicken legs!" Zheng Qing waved his hand angrily, signaling the fat man to give up his stingy behavior, and hummed: "I just think that everyone has been bored in the library for too long, and there may be unexpected gains when you go out for a walk and change your mood." ”
"The premise is that in the practical class tomorrow afternoon, Assistant Coach Hilda will not arrange high-risk battle subjects. Xiao Xiao raised the brush in his hand and put forward his opinion.
When Zheng Qing heard this, his face suddenly fell.
Yes, there's a practical class tomorrow afternoon - this class trains young wizards to master spells, talismans and other magical skills in the process, and is the only class that allows students to draw out spells from each other and use curses at will, and it is also the course that claims to have the highest accident frequency among all the subjects of First University.
"Hah! I've got you!" a crisp voice sounded abruptly behind the young wizards, startling them.
turned around, but saw Li Meng standing in the corner of the bookshelf with his hands behind his back, with a smug face.
"I just heard you say that you are going to do something high-risk in Teacher Hilda's class!, if you want me to keep it a secret, hum......" The little witch's words made several male witches look at each other and remain silent.
Zheng Qing scratched his head, remembering for a long time, and he didn't know when several people in his family said that they would do something in Hilda's class. You know, several of them have a good relationship with the young teaching assistant whose face is full of copper nails, and they have always been excellent students in practical classes.
But before they could explain, another slightly angry voice came from behind Li Meng: "Mengmeng!"
