Monster Hunting High School

Chapter 26 Xiayuan Festival

Although there was a slight flaw at the end, overall, the closing ceremony did not go wrong. According to the report in the school magazine, the school and the people were still peaceful and harmonious.

Of course, newspapers outside the school, such as the Beta Town Post, have always had prejudices against First University, especially Jiuyou College. It is a well-known fact that they like to make small things bigger and make big things worse, so it goes without saying.

Although the school hunting party ended like this, the ferocious and greedy eyes of those demons at the closing ceremony were still deeply engraved in Zheng Qing's mind. Although the school's follow-up investigation showed that because of the gust of wind, the Jiuyou Academy stand in the upwind direction would naturally be coveted by demons. But the young public-sponsored student had a feeling - if Old Yao had not frightened those demons at that time, they would definitely rush up and tear him into pieces first.

This is based on a wizard's most primitive intuition.

"When they see other wizards, they will rush up and tear them apart." Although Zheng Qing comforted himself in his heart like this, he knew that this was only self-comfort after all - this was not the first time that the demons had looked at them with such greedy eyes. Look at him. There must be something wrong here.

In view of this, Lao Yao's original suggestion came to his mind again. Go find Professor Monteria and ask him to help you check yourself.

"Alas." After thinking about this, the young public-funded student couldn't help but sigh deeply. Although there was a faint sense of urgency in his heart, and he also wanted to do this immediately. But not today.

Because today is the Hungry Ghost Festival.

The "Tai Shang San Guan Jing" says, "The Heaven Official confers blessings, the Earth Official forgives sins, and the Water Official relieves misfortunes." This corresponds to the three traditional festivals of the Shangyuan, Zhongyuan and Xiayuan festivals in the wizarding world.

Theoretically, lanterns are put out on the Shangyuan Festival to offer sacrifices and pray for blessings; the gates of ghosts are opened on the Zhongyuan Festival and hundreds of ghosts walk at night; fasting and rituals are set up on the Xiayuan Festival to ward off misfortunes and recommend the dead. However, in practice, wizards do not have a high sense of awe for certain existences in the starry sky, so the ritual sense of the Three Yuan Festival has never been very strong - it seems that only when the ghost gate opens on the Ghost Festival, Wizards take it a little more seriously.

Of course, just because the sense of ritual is not strong does not mean that there are not many taboos.

Because the Three Yuan Festival occurs on the first day of the lunar calendar (around the 15th day of the lunar calendar), it happens to be the day when many oriental wizards burn incense and worship their ancestors. It is also the day when the nature of the council under the moon, such as werewolves and vampires, blooms. In addition, in these few On certain days, there are always a few spying eyes on this world from the depths of the starry sky, so First University simply arranged a holiday and the whole school had a day off.

However, although it is a holiday, because the madness of certain creatures is difficult to contain on such days, in order to avoid accidents, the school does not allow students to go out at will - especially at night.

"What are you sighing about again? Want to go out? You've only been in the dormitory all morning! You still have a whole day to go on today!" Fatty Xin's voice came from the balcony, seeming to be a little gloating.

Although he also had to stay in a small dormitory, he still had an independent space.

With his huge size, the fat man could almost crowd the entire balcony. The others didn't want to be crowded together with a sweaty fat man, so they simply let him occupy it - only the fat cat Tuantuan could. Ignoring the fat man's breath, he slapped him on the head without any pressure and flicked his tail leisurely.

"Old Yao said that the teaching assistants will come to check the bed today. If you don't want to be deducted credits, you'd better be calm." Xiao Xiao raised his head from the book and gave Zheng Qing a warning look.

"Points deducted? Our Captain Zheng doesn't care!" The fat man's sour voice came from the balcony.

Zheng Qing chuckled, but there was no interface.

Indeed, he had already received a lot of credits in classes, extracurricular club invitations, and practices. In the freshman competition a few days ago, because he used his credits to bet, he won a lot more - here and there. Calculated, his total number of credits is almost over fifty - based on his current score, most of the places available to students in the school have opened their doors to him.

For a freshman who has just been in school for more than two months, this score is quite objective. Especially considering that Jiuyou College only requires 100 credits to upgrade from freshman to sophomore year, his current score is even more terrifying.

"I wonder how Dylan is doing in the hospital." Now that he had spoken, Zheng Qing naturally did not want to continue to be dull, so he simply started talking to the other two people.

"What else can you do! It's time to eat, drink, and sleep!" The fat man didn't know what he was eating on the balcony. He chewed something loudly and looked full of resentment: "It's not like you haven't seen it before. He passed by. It needs to be moisturized!”

"It's not that comfortable for them these days." Zheng Qing raised his arm, looked at an elf hanging on his fingertips, and said softly: "Especially, you know, his bloodline is not so pure ”

The dormitory suddenly fell into silence again.

This made Zheng Qing regret a little - he just retorted to the fat man out of habit and didn't really want to bring up such a sensitive topic.

"If Dylan could find his own heart, he wouldn't be so uncomfortable." Fatty's voice came from the balcony again. Although he couldn't see his expression, Zheng Qing could hear something in his tone. Unusually dull: "...just like me. If I could truly find inner peace, I wouldn't have quit the Big Blue state at such a critical moment on the hunting ground."

The atmosphere in the dormitory became increasingly tense, which forced the young public-funded student to try his best to change the topic.

"Speaking of hunting games, do you know where Lan Que has gone? I seem to have rarely seen him recently." Zheng Qing tried to make his tone lighter: "Tell me, is he in love?"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of the cold swordsman's love affair, and couldn't help but chuckle.

However, Xiao Xiao's answer made his laughter stop abruptly.

"He fell in love with his sword." Xiao Xiao adjusted his glasses and glanced at the young public-funded student silently: "Because in the freshman competition, when he faced the attack of the wolf king, he retreated. He didn't step forward with his sword...so he has a weak sword. According to people from Starry Sky Academy, he is sharpening his sword like crazy."

When a swordsman sharpens his sword, he does not sharpen his sword with a whetstone.

"But didn't he come with us to see Dylan a few days ago?" Zheng Qing couldn't help but ask.

"What do you think of his condition that day?" Xiao Xiao asked back.

Zheng Qing was speechless.

Looking back carefully, Lanque looked pale that day and seemed not to have had a good rest. He was indeed not in a good condition.

"Just because my sword retreated in the face of danger..." The young public servant took a breath and wanted to say something, but finally found that he had nothing to say.

This kind of thing is indeed not something that others can comment on.

After several conversations, the atmosphere in the dormitory became increasingly dull, much to the chagrin of the publicly funded students who originally planned to liven up the atmosphere.

Until a paper crane flew in from the window.
