58. Witch doctors are of the same origin

Sidullah immediately stretched her face, dumbfounded, and said, "You, the 'eagle chicken' in your hand, how can you learn to speak with me?" Still learning so similar? ”

Li Xiang pressed the pause and said, "This is all the dialogue between us, and what has just been broadcast is just one of them, it's not your so-called 'eagle chicken' who is learning your words, you know!" ”

"I really didn't expect you to have this amazing thing, I really underestimated you."

Li Xiang thought to himself: It's me who overestimated you too much.

"How much do you want to keep the 'Eagle Chicken' in your hand from saying what I said to you tonight in front of a third person?"

Li Xiang smiled very disdainfully and said, "Are you talking to me about business?" ”

"Make an offer! How much do you want? ”

Li Xiang shook his head.

"What do you mean by shaking your head before you make a bid?"

"Shaking my head, it means that I don't want to blackmail you for this at all."

Sidula said incredulously, "You would be so generous? ”

Li Xiang smiled slightly and said, "Be a man!" Be broad-minded, and be a successful businessman, and you can't be stingy. ”

"Listen to your tone, were you a businessman before?"

"You don't need to know about my past, in short, I don't want to embarrass you, and I don't want to be an enemy of anyone, as long as you put your heart right, I promise, all the conversations between us can definitely be 'God knows, earth knows, you know, I know'.

"Is it true?" Sidullah was still a little skeptical.

"The way of business is about my sincerity and your faith, and the weight is a promise."

Xidula looked at Li Xiang with strange eyes, and didn't know what else to say.

Li Xiang patted Hitura's shoulder and said, "Okay, let's stop here today!" It's not early, I'm going back too, and you should rest early. ”

Sidura was stunned for a long time before replying, "Oh! ”

After Li wanted to get up, he turned and left.

***

Li wanted to leave with his front foot, and Gaul Jie walked in with his back foot.

Seeing Sidullah pulling her head listlessly, Gaulje said, "What? Didn't talk about it? ”

"Nonsense, look at my decay, you will know the result."

"What then? It looks like we really have to postpone the game. ”

"Haven't I thought about it?" Sidullah smiled bitterly and said, "But it won't work this time." ”

"Why?"

"Because, as long as the 'eagle chicken' in Li Xiang's hand speaks, those crazy gamblers and slaves in Rome will have to tear me apart."

Gaulje wondered: "What kind of chicken is the 'Eagle Chicken'?" Can you still speak human words? Will there be such a big incitement? ”

"Don't ask, anyway! This time, it's really Li Xiang, this kid didn't fold. Sidullah sighed, and then said, "It seems that this time it is definitely going to be ruined." Damn, why am I so unlucky this year! has been constantly breaking money, and it has never stopped. ”

"It's all to blame on that damn Li Xiang, deliberately targeting us."

"Now that's a?"

"Oh! By the way, I almost forgot that Debous is still waiting for you in the side hall! ”

"What is he doing here?"

"He said he had a way to keep our team on winning the championship."

Sidullah immediately came to her senses and said, "Is it true? Hurry up, hurry up! Ask him to come and see me right away. ”

"Okay." With that, Gauljah turned and walked briskly towards the side hall.

Sidullah took a coin from the plate on the table, a gold coin, and said, "My dear! I really don't want to lose you! ”

Sidullah was bored playing with the coin, because she missed, and the coin fell to the ground and rolled away.

The gold coin rolled to someone's feet and stopped.

The man bent down and picked up the gold coin.

Sildura recognized this man as Debous.

Debous was the only witch doctor in Rome.

In fact, witch and medicine are of the same origin, in the early years of Rome, there are quite a lot of people still continue the tradition, if you are sick, you can ask for witches, you can also ask for a doctor, because, whether it is a witch or a doctor, you can make the patient recover, just like the famous proverb "no matter whether it is a black cat or a white cat, catch a mouse is a good cat".

***

According to the records of Roman history, in 509 B.C., the seventh king of Rome, Tarquinias, suffered from a strange disease, and the queen spent a lot of money to convene a hundred famous doctors in Rome for a general consultation, but the result was that in order to preserve their so-called "divine doctor holy hand, wonderful hand rejuvenation" golden reputation, made a "difficult disease, incurable" consultation results, in other words, so that the queen can prepare for the king's posthumous affairs.

At this time, an unknown witch doctor threatened to cure the king, and after deliberation among the king's relatives, they finally agreed to make the king "a dead horse a live horse doctor".

The witch doctor then fed the king the miraculous medicine he had prepared, and within three days, the king's illness was relieved.

This made the hundred famous doctors who had previously "sentenced the king" to death very unconvinced, and strongly defended themselves, vigorously denying that their medical skills were inferior to witch doctors, but facts speak louder than words, and the king's body gradually recovered, which has proved everything.

In desperation, 100 famous doctors immediately convened an emergency meeting, the central content of which was that in order to maintain the high status of famous doctors in the eyes of the people, they had to use "extraordinary means" to deal with the crisis.

The so-called "extraordinary means" were actually to buy the king's servants to replace the medicine originally provided by the witch doctors with the medicine provided by the famous doctors, and this medicine was refined from the fruit of a plant called "Mad Maple".

After eating, the king went mad and powerful, armed with a long sword, stabbing anyone at sight, and finally caused a tragedy of nine deaths and dozens of injuries, and the witch doctor was unfortunately seriously injured.

The king's stab not only hurt dozens of people, but deeply pierced the hearts of the people, and the consequence was that the king's regime was overthrown, and Rome ended the monarchy era of "the government of the seven kings" and ushered in a republic.

At the same time as the change in Rome's political system, another epoch-making industrial change was also underway, that is, the history of the "witch doctor's family" for thousands of years was officially ended.

The "doctor" even borrowed a powerful propaganda offensive to "beat the water dog" against the "witch" and "beat the water dog" so that he could never turn over, and the "witch" knew that the "doctor" was the real "mastermind" who made the king crazy, so he let himself bear the black pot, but because there was no empirical evidence, it was difficult to argue, so he could only let him continue to smear himself and was powerless to resist.

Since then, in the hearts of the people, the idea of "witch is black" and "doctor is white" has become deep-rooted, and with the passage of time, "witch" has been described more and more black, gradually, the term "witch doctor" has been forgotten by the vast majority of the people, replaced by derogatory terms such as "witch" and "witch", and wizards and witches are often imagined as the spokesmen of the devil, with unlimited magic, they can fly around on a broomstick, look at the "crystal ball" to know the past and future, and even become a "spirit medium", connecting the two worlds of yin and yang, Let the living and the dead communicate face-to-face.

For 2,000 years, people's perception of wizards and witches has not fundamentally changed, and even has a tendency to become more and more violent.
