C38 Friends on the other side (1)

Chang Jing pushed the door and entered the house.

What appeared in front of him was a white-bearded elder with a kind face, completely different from how Chang Jing viewed the old Magician to be when she viewed him as a bad old man (There was no other way, since he was' unkind 'in the past).

"Hello, Principal!"

After greeting them, Chang Jing started to look through the furnishings of the room.

This was an old-fashioned room, and there was not even a trace of the modern era in it. The furnishings inside were also very simple. Behind the door, there was a row of bookshelves, and the bookshelves were filled to the brim with books. Next to him was an ancient table with an oil lamp on it. Next to the table were two fur-upholstered chairs. The headmaster was sitting on one of them.

There was even a door opened at the southwest corner of the room. Chang Jing guessed that it was the Principal's bedroom.

"You are Chang Jingye, right? What were you doing standing there in a daze for? "Hur hur, come and sit over here." The Principal pointed to the chair by his side and indicated for Chang Jing to come over, then gestured for him to sit down.

"Greetings Principal," Chang Jing stood up again and bowed to the Principal. Although he was not from a rich and powerful family, he still bowed respectfully. Moreover, bowing could cover up the nervousness in his heart. It was just that he didn't notice that he had already said, "Greetings, Principal."

"Hehe, you sure are sensible. Chang Jingye, let me take a good look at you, "The Principal pulled Chang Jing's hand from Chang Jing's head all the way to his feet, and from his feet to her head as she couldn't help but nod," You really are a good model! "

"I heard the teachers say that your comprehension of magic is very high! "You should have learned magic before, right?" the headmaster asked.

"I learned a little last year." Chang Jing was obviously very reserved. What a joke, it would be strange if the elders looked at him with such disrespect!

"Such a high achievement in one year, sure enough, the heavens …" It is natural to be made for learning magic! " In order to prevent Chang Jing from having such arrogant thoughts in the future, the Principal forcefully swallowed down the word "genius". If he were to know that Chang Jing had not even learned magic for two months, it was unknown whether the word "talented" that came out of his mouth would be heard by everyone in the entire academy.

"Can you tell the headmaster who taught you magic?" The headmaster really wanted to meet the person who was so lucky to be able to pick up the treasure in the first place.

"Bad old mage!" After Chang Jing said this, she immediately realized that she said the wrong thing. How could she say such disrespectful words in front of the Principal?

"No …" Chang Jing changed his tone, "He seemed to have told me his name before. What was his name? Oh right, it's Hao Si. "But …"

"Hao Si. But? Isn't he just an unkempt old geezer? "

"Yes, that's him!"

"I didn't expect him to take advantage of me!" The principal revealed an unwilling expression before his expression darkened, "To be able to teach you magic of the four elements, other than him, there aren't many other people. Anyway, this old thing's luck is really good. To be able to receive such an outstanding disciple."

"Principal, do you know that rotten old man?" Although she realised that she said the wrong things just now, it would be hard to change her words back to Chang Jing's place.

"You called him 'Bad Old Man'?" The principal's expression changed.

"No, no … I was wrong!" Chang Jing immediately tried to defend herself. He did not want to appear as if she did not respect the old man in front of the Principal. I called him a good old grandpa. "

"Good old grandpa, bad old man?" The Principal stared at Chang Jing and continued asking, "So you're not her disciple?"

"He seemed to have mentioned the matter of taking me in as his disciple, but because I had something to do, I refused." Chang Jing understood that she had rejected Hao Si's offer more than a month ago because she was afraid of being sold off. However, the request to take in a disciple was so childish that now, she could only use "something" to explain.

Hearing Chang Jing's reply, the Principal laughed out loud.

"Haha …" This time, the old thing had suffered a huge loss! "Haha …" That expression was something that only naive children would have.

Chang Jing who was clueless could only keep laughing along.

"Chang Jingye, do you want to know why I'm so happy?" The Principal, who had finally recovered his composure, asked Chang Jing happily.

"Hur hur, Principal, please speak."

The headmaster looked up, as if lost in distant memories.

"He and I are old rivals Old friends who have been fighting for decades! You must be wondering why he and I are friends and enemies at the same time.

"Heh heh, actually, that's a long story. He and I have known each other since we were little, and we have been good friends since we were little! When we were kids, we caught butterflies on the prairie, rode horses, fought... I remember he had a scar on his buttocks when he was riding! Heh heh, what a good time that was! "Just like you are now, carefree …"

"But Principal, didn't you just say that you were old rivals?" Chang Jing interrupted the Principal. He understood that if the old man were to be lost in memories, he would never stop talking.

"Oh, right …" The headmaster put away the memory and turned his mind to another memory, "Childhood is always passing quickly, in the blink of an eye we are all 16 or 17 years old. Later on, our parents thought that learning magic would bring the greatest benefits to our family, so they arranged for us to rely on our relationship to send all of us to Duchy of Meuse's Royal Faculty of Magic to learn magic. "

"Ever since then, our struggle has begun …"
