Vol 5 Chapter 144: flashback

Before Zheng Qing fell from the Returning Soul Yang, he always felt that today's Forbidden Magic Festival was not wasted.
　　
　　 not only participated in the youth tour required by the school, but also listened to the whispers between the two witches, and also witnessed the battle between the rat and the five poisonous insects.
　　
　　 As for why he appeared on the heads of Kolmar and the Rat Fairy, I have to start with the quiet and fierce rat-worm battle.
　　
At that time, as a third party on the battlefield, the black cat squatted on a branch and watched the entire battle-he saw three mice hitting a toad violently, exploding the eyeballs of that toad; he also saw one A golden scorpion broke the paw of a mouse with a big claw, and the painful mouse screamed; and saw the red-eyed mice abandon the use of tools, tore them with the worms with their fangs and claws, and went around The juice flew wildly.
　　
　　 In short, after an arduous struggle, the Rat Army won a great victory. The dead insects are buried directly on the spot after removing their shells and removing their poison. The living captive insects were taken into custody by the rats in separate categories, and escorted to the depths of the silent forest.
　　
　　 As a cat, especially a cat with a deep curiosity, Zheng Qing would naturally not just watch those mice escorting the insects away. So he quietly joined this team.
　　
　　As the saying goes, rats have their way, and worms have their way. When rats and insects are mixed together, the roads are different and they can only compromise with each other. Therefore, the mice did not directly draw a black hole on the ground to take the bug away, which also gave the black cat a chance to track it.
　　
　　 The team went around in the woods for a long time, when the black cat was already a little impatient, suddenly found that the large group of rats that had walked in front of him suddenly disappeared!
　　
　　 even with the escorted bug captives, disappear without a trace!
　　
　　 Because of tracking, the black cat is about two to three hundred meters away from the rat army. This distance is almost nothing under the keen sense of smell and hearing of the black cat, and can be completely ignored. But it was precisely the blind spot created at a distance of two to three hundred meters, which made the mice leading the way disappear for a long time before being noticed by the black cat.
　　
　　 The rustling movement of the rat army that disappeared first when marching, the black cat had not yet reacted; the smell of the rat army disappeared in a thick bush shortly afterwards.
　　
　　 The black cat stopped in front of a golden leaf privet.
　　
　　 is surrounded by unfamiliar bushes and trees, there are no caves, caves, etc. to hide.
　　
　　 The black cat looked around, shaking his beard, trotting a few steps, rushing out of the bushes, and climbing along the thick trunk of the Returning Soul Yang to the top of the tree.
　　
　　In contrast to the gloomy and dark scenery in the woodland, the scenery above the tree canopy is very refreshing and pleasant. Although it was only March, the forest was full of vitality. Dark green, emerald green, light green, stacked in different shades, shimmering in the breeze, golden sunlight evenly smeared on it, making the entire forest lively.
　　
　　 The black cat twitched its ears, squinted and looked around.
　　
　　 At the foot of the distant mountain, the tall and heavy walls of Jiuyou Academy sat there peacefully, the silent river half-circled around and disappeared into the lush forest. On the left side of the academy are several undulating hills. Beside the hills, there is a light green open space. Through the gaps between the hills, you can see the blue-black sea. The building closest to the black cat is an unfamiliar ruin.
　　
　　 is there.
　　
　　 There must be demons if something goes wrong. The disappearance of the rat army is abnormal, and the appearance of a building ruin in the forest is also abnormal.
　　
　　 Zheng Qing lifted his paw, and gestured for the distance between himself and the ruins—well, about four to five hundred meters? The black cat flicked its tail uncertainly, no longer hesitating, after jumping off the canopy, following the direction in the memory, rushed all the way.
　　
Having been in school for so long, I don’t know that there is such a ruin in the forest. Of course, to Zheng Qing, it shouldn’t be surprising that there is anything in the Silent Forest. He is a man who has seen time going backwards—and that ruin looks like It doesn't seem to be dangerous, maybe this is a trace of the history of the school?
　　
　　 just took a quick look, anyway, he ran very fast.
　　
　　 Zheng Qing convinced herself from the bottom of her heart.
　　
　　 Of course, for safety's sake, when there was still some distance from the ruins, the black cat crawled into the canopy again and sneaked on the heights under the cover of the intertwined branches and leaves.
　　
　　 The footsteps fall from the starting point, running silently. As a walker in the shadow, the cat is a qualified passerby.
　　
　　 Soon, he came near the ruins.
　　
　　 Then his eyes smoothed across the ruins, and he sighed.
　　
　　 The outermost part of the ruins is an archway-like building, the whole body is rough rock, and there are traces of wooden structures around it, but it also decayed and shattered under the ravages of time. In the middle of the memorial arch, there is a ‘Lianxing Gate’ on the positive seal. Around the big characters, some traces of inscribed talisman can be vaguely seen.
　　
　　 Through the stone gate, it is a dry pool. The bottom of the pool is scattered with strange-shaped rockery stones, and the messy weeds grow lushly, guarding these fallen stones. There is a broken stone stele by the pool, with only the word "Pan" left on it. Not far from the stone monument, a simple arch bridge stands across the pond, leading to the depths of the building.
　　
Before he finished admiring the landscape, he noticed the arrival of the Rat Fairy's car, saw the hateful hamster that he once named "Fairy", and saw the sculptural Kolma under the shadow of a tree. Witch.
　　
　　 Then he unconsciously overheard a lot of conversations again.
　　
Zheng Qing didn’t know whether the Rat Fairy knew of his existence from the beginning, or whether he heard the Rat Fairy mention the
violent temporal and spatial fluctuations during winter hunting
or
Sato Guya’s eyeballs were blown out
. The drastic change of mood while in secret was caught by the mouse fairy ~EbookFREE.me~ In short, as a black cat, he was gloriously arrested.
　　
　　 almost lost the face of the black cat sheriff.
　　
　　 As for the role of Kolmar’s ‘guide’, it is not just an inspiration, but also a deeper reason.
　　
　　 Because according to the Rat Fairy, the newly-born secret realm was caused by a brief but violent fluctuation in time and space. Then there is no doubt that Zheng Qing can conclude that the so-called ‘short and severe temporal fluctuation’ was caused by Mr. Wu turning his pocket watch back in time.
　　
　　 Because of this, Zheng Qing judged that he could have enough clues to find the secret realm.
　　
On the other hand, he was very curious about what Colmar and Elena wanted to do, and he was always worried about how to penetrate into them and inquire about it-before being forced to act as a'guide', Zheng Qing was still thinking about it.' Jelena’s boyfriend’s status is more appropriate than a consultant’s status as a consultant who has done odd jobs for the Colmar Magic Circle.
　　
　　 It's all right now, the Rat Fairy has provided him with a better identity.
　　
　　A collaborator.
　　
　　 And he is a collaborator who will not reveal his identity in front of the two witches.
　　
　　 is simply dozing off and brought a pillow.
　　
　　 was somewhat reluctant at first, but after recovering, Zheng Qing was delighted.
