The shadow suddenly stopped suddenly, and its rather fat body slid out of long wet marks on the ground.
The next second, Jerry, the muskrat that had become Raven's pet, rushed over and hugged Xie Junping's pants without letting go, with considerable strength.
"Hey, my pants and shoes..."
Jerry tossed around from nowhere. The fur on his body was half dry and half wet, and his long tail swung, making a crackling sound on the ground. He looked restless.
Xie Junping said he disliked it, but if he was really annoyed, he wouldn't call him "son". He and Jerry had never known each other before. In the first few days of fighting, they hated the muskrat with a passion. But later on, the little thing was hard to find. When he reappeared, he had transformed into Raven's pet.
People's feelings are so strange. If you look at the same object from a different perspective, the original "frustrating" becomes "flexible".
The problem is, Jerry is quite aloof, and he just picks up the dishes. Except for beauties like Raven, Ronan, or Mao Yan, he ignores everyone else.
It's unprecedented to be as anxious and angry as I am today, looking for someone to support me.
Xie Junping was very happy: "Hey, you only think of me when something happens...Who messed with my son?"
While I was teasing him, there was an elevator going down to the foyer, and a group of people went out, and happened to meet Xie Junping and the others.
The person in charge was young and had a baby face, but his eyes and brows were sharp. When he saw Xie Junping, his attitude was subtle: "Senior Xie is here to supervise the work again?"
Xie Junping raised his head and smiled, opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Brother Ou...that's not the case, I just stopped by for a walk to eat."
This "Brother Ou" is named Ou Que. He is just a freshman this year, but he is already a veteran figure in the Occult Research Club and a technical expert in the club. He is quite accomplished in mystical research.
Some time ago, there was internal turmoil at Shenyan Club. Former president Du Yong resigned, and the team was reorganized. Ou Que became the youngest vice president. Especially after the successful capital injection of LRCF, during a series of equity changes, his family's company became the top five major shareholders of the society. With this capital, this young man has considerable power in the society.
No one likes to be judged, especially young and energetic people.
Ou Que has always been unhappy with Xie Jun. Xie Junping didn't expect to make friends with everyone, and the person in front of him was five or six years younger than him, so there was no need to be tough and have a reputation of being a bully.
He said it casually and then asked with a smile: "Is it over for today?"
Ou Que twitched his lips: "On the contrary, everyone has to burn the midnight oil to fight."
Xie Junping was surprised: "It's not so urgent, is it?"
Ou Que ignored him and walked straight out, followed by a group of people behind him, showing great momentum.
Fortunately, Xie Junping was at Zhixing College, surrounded by friends and friends, so he casually stopped a person behind him and said, "Lao Hai, what's going on?"
Lao Hai, who was stopped, was a very good man, with a high or low status in the Occult Research Society. He was also one of Xie Junping's eyes and ears. He immediately said: "It's very urgent. They said that all the ice on the lake will be cleared tonight." Smash it."
"Lake?" Neither Xie Junping nor Xue Lei understood.
Ou Que was very dissatisfied with the private exchange between his "subordinates" and outsiders. He turned around and said, "Senior Xie, this has nothing to do with the person you supervise."
When he said this, Xie Junping was not angry, but Jerry under his feet became even more irritable, grinning at Ou Que, and even made a strange cry of "squeak".
Ou Que glanced at the little thing: "It's freezing outside, senior, just stay in the room and see if there are any illegal modifications. You can also vaccinate your pets when you have time... …Hold it as far away as possible to avoid being picked up by the cat.”
With that, he strode out of the foyer.
Xie Junping was still not angry, but vaguely grasped a certain key point. At the moment, he didn't care about the half-wet fur on Jerewen's body. He bent down and stretched out his hands, hugged the chubby little guy in his arms, and chased after him with a smile:
"With my son's skills, one or two wild cats are nothing to worry about. By the way, brother Ou, are you going to break the ice on the lake opposite? Are you preparing for winter swimming?"
"Huh." Ou Que didn't want to answer such a stupid question at all.
It was Lao Hai who gave the answer: "It's just the other way around. The club wants to hold a fire ceremony."
"Light a fire? Light a fire on the water?"
Xie Junping's eyelids twitched, and he looked at each other with Xue Lei, and at the same time thought of the lonely dead tree sandbar standing in the middle of the lake.
Xue Lei took a breath and couldn't help but ask. Xie Junping winked at him and asked him to confirm the status of Ronan and Ruiwen first. Xie Junping himself was shameless and continued to ask Ou Que: "Brother Ou, 'fire in water' is quite new, but lighting fire inside the jungle is a bit of a procedural problem. Do you mind talking about it?"
Ou Que glanced over coldly, wanting to curse, but finally remembered Xie Junping's role in the student union, and twitched his lips: "Okay, a professional team has just arrived, and we don't need to re-report the completed procedures through the media. "
At this time, someone had already got off the transport plane, dismantled the equipment, and made preliminary preparations. Judging from the appearance, it is indeed a professional team as Ou Que said - Shenyan Society is willing to spend money, and it does have the capital.
Xie Junping glanced over there and said hehe: "Sure, let's communicate on the spot."
In fact, without formal communication, Xie Junping can get a general idea by getting together with his friends.
"Lao Hai, are you trying to change water into oil?"
Lao Hai was quite embarrassed to be caught in the middle, so he could only chuckle: "It's a reconstruction of the mysterious ritual..."
"Mysterious ritual?" Xue Lei was even more surprised.
Ou Que was really impatient: "Senior Xie, you are a supervisor, there is no need to cover the details of our club activities, right?"
"Everyone has curiosity."
Xie Junping is still laughing. His face or so-called self-cultivation shocked Lao Hai, who was familiar with him. To put it bluntly, this was also the subtle result of his getting to know Ronan and practicing with Dean Wan. Ever since I saw the beauty and magic of the other world, my mentality has been completely different when I look at the small problems in Zhixing Academy.
After all, Ou Que was still young. Faced with Xie Junping's shameless entanglement, he felt extremely annoyed and couldn't find a reason to fall out, so he simply turned away and ignored him.
At this time, Lao Hai could only continue to explain: "We want to reconstruct and reproduce the Eleusis Mystery... Have you heard of this?"
"Why do you look down on me? Don't forget, my best friend is a member of your club, and our school's student union has always cared about the direction of club activities."
As he spoke, Xie Junping had already completed the search at the speed of light.
The Eleusinian Mysteries, one of the most famous and oldest mysteries in the West. Some people say that it originated in the 19th century BC, and gained stronger vitality by integrating with religious mythology in the ancient Greek era.
After being stimulated by the search results, Xie Junping had a vague impression. There was a relevant introduction in the history of religion course. Ronan seemed to have mentioned it some time ago.
Lao Hai continued to explain, saying that the Occult Research Society is preparing to recreate this mysterious ritual in North Shore Gear. Of course, it is not a copy. In fact, the details of this ritual have long been lost in the dust of history. The only way to reproduce it is to "creately recreate it." structure."
"Hmm, ambitious." Xie Junping expressed his admiration politely.
Lao Hai glanced forward, saw Ou Que walking away, and said with a smile: "Yes, stimulated by male hormones, he is strong and straight."
"Gah?"
Lao Hai smiled mysteriously: "Speaking of which, Mr. Xie, you are no longer the same as those of us in the ivory tower. Will there be any this year..."
He drew a circle around the wrist band. People who understand this hint really understand it, but people who don’t understand it are really confused. Fortunately, Xie Junping was indeed a top-notch experienced driver, so he raised his eyebrows: "A grand feast?"
Lao Hai raised his thumb.
"They are getting better and better at fooling children over there." After he finished speaking, he remembered that there were even smaller participants there this year.
However, Xie Junping himself, after making a difficult decision, refused the first opportunity in his life to participate in the "Grand Feast". Because his practice is at a critical juncture, compared with the foreseeable qualitative changes in his life that are not far away, those overly straightforward "conquering games" no longer have strong appeal.
He wouldn't tell Lao Hai this kind of thing, he just showed a "you know" smile.
Lao Hai was not surprised at all, and took the opportunity to tell the news he heard: "I heard that this year there is also a theme of occultism, and many people in our circle have won the lottery..."
"Haha, what does it have to do with your reconstruction of the Eleusis ritual?"
"It's a big deal. Vice President Ou is preparing for this. He wants to make a blockbuster move..."
"Did he go in the wrong direction? With the urinary attitude over there, occultism is just a gimmick. In the final analysis, it is still a matter between men and women."
Lao Hai chuckled: "It should be right. It is said that he has invited President Tang to be his female companion. This is a stepping stone."
"President Tang? Tang Yi?" Xie Junping was really shocked, "I guess, they are almost ten years apart, right? This young man is so good? Is it true love?"
"There is also a backup, our hibiscus flower."
"Fei Jin? Isn't he about to graduate...I understand, it is indeed true love."
He has just grown up, and he can't wait to reveal his taste. The young man is still not mature enough! In comparison, the other younger one... seems to be about the same.
think too much.
"I still have to understand the logic in it. The banquet party is not held here..."
Lao Hai was surprised: "You didn't know? This year's main venue is set to be in Shuiyi, Yundu City, and a lot of active people are preparing to take advantage of it."
"Aha?"
Xie Junping had already leaked the secret, but Lao Hai didn't think so much and was just envious: "This is a university town, is there a better place for carnival and hunting? A second battlefield can be opened at any time. By then, the entire Pingjiang All districts are covered.”
"These scumbags are getting more and more arrogant." Xie Junping took a sip, but his heart was itching. Fortunately, he immediately remembered Dean Wan's teachings and kept calming down by saying "The nature of matter comes first".
Just as he was about to ask again, his feet shook slightly. This feeling came suddenly and never followed, almost making people think it was an illusion. However, Xie Junping soon heard the subtle cracking sound of the ice on the lake shore.
