Volume 2 Murmur of the Night Chapter 22 The Occult

Wang Feng had just woken up from the bed, but the sleepiness had not dissipated, but became more and more solemn.

Walking down the stairs to get some water, it turns out that the living room is flooded with all kinds of books.

The whole room smelled of smoke.

"Ahem, ahem...... Sherlock Holmes, why do you smoke so much? Wang Feng pinched his nose, what he hated the most was the smell of smoke.

Sherlock Holmes crawled out of the sea of books, with dark circles on his eyes, and his whole body looked listless, looking very unenergetic, with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Are you awake? That's great, hurry up and help me find the information. There are so many of these books......"

Holmes yawned, his face sleepy.

"Aren't you going to come back and just read and sleep here?" Wang Feng walked over with difficulty and picked up a heavy book casually.

"I don't need to read that book, I've already read it, and it doesn't have the information I want." Sherlock Holmes handed Wang Feng another book: "You read this book first. ”

"Black Magic? What do you think of this kind of book? Do you still want to be a magician? Wang Feng felt very funny, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really couldn't have imagined that the famous detective Sherlock Holmes would study such a mysterious thing here.

Holmes was also very helpless to explain to Wang Feng: "This is also something that can't be helped!" Religion falls under the umbrella of the occult, and if you want to know what to do next, you have to study books about the occult to find clues. ”

He looked back at the sea of books: "It's a pity that there are so many of these books, and I can't find any useful clues at all." ”

"That's what it looks like...... You don't think you came back and didn't sleep, did you? Wang Feng put down the book and came to Holmes's side: "I thought you were going to open a library......

Holmes took out another book and read it: "How can I have time to sleep?" There's still a lot to do. Sleeping before you're done is just a luxury. ”

Wang Feng sighed, but after thinking about it carefully, what Holmes said did make some sense.

Suddenly, he remembered something: "Why did I tell you that Van Gogh could see things that others couldn't, and you were not so surprised but very relieved?" ”

When Wang Feng and Sherlock Holmes talked about Van Gogh without reservation, Holmes did not show a very surprised expression, but a little joy, so he was very puzzled.

Sherlock Holmes raised his head and glanced at Wang Feng: "The person who can appear in Arkham at that time definitely has something that ordinary people do not have, before human beings have lived on the earth for several years, but it only took about 100 years to rise...... Do you feel that the achievements of human beings are really due to themselves? ”

He lit a cigarette and waited for Wang Feng's answer.

"Doesn't humanity come from itself?" Wang Feng felt that the question asked by Sherlock Holmes was very strange, the reason why human beings were able to develop into what they are now is because of their own efforts, step by step.

Could it be that the reason why human beings have been able to develop to this point is all due to the strength of the outside world, and how powerful this force of the outside world is.

"Whew!" Holmes took a puff of smoke and shook his head.

"I've just read about the occult, which says that human beings did not develop by their own intelligence, but were influenced by the gods." Sherlock Holmes put the book in his hand on Wang Feng's hand: "The third line is the second period." ”

Wang Feng frowned: "You just now?" ”

"Actually, I had this idea when I was in college, I think that what human beings have learned over a long period of time is actually stagnant, and after reaching each point in time, technology will develop rapidly and remain stagnant again...... Of course, I dismissed my rebellious thoughts, and it wasn't until I heard you talk about Van Gogh that I suddenly came to my senses. Holmes yawned and continued, "He said that this world is not a single world, but many worlds connected to each other, and the passage of connection is separated by a transparent wall...... The gods in our mythology are creatures of another wall, and we can't see the other wall. So is there a possibility that the creatures outside the walls of another world can open our talents and stimulate the development of our civilization, but Van Gogh said that he doesn't know why the wall is slowly disappearing, perhaps...... That's not going away. ”

"You're saying someone has opened a gateway to the world? If it's true, then it will be...... Who! Wang Feng's pupils continued to dilate: "The man in the yellow robe!" ”

"Of course, it takes time to connect this channel, every few years, so you can put all the information together and know what these guys are going to do." Holmes smiled slightly, he knew something. All the truth is just missing a few details.

"Van Gogh's abilities were actually given by those gods, activating his talent for color in painting, which is why his paintings are imbued with a kind of magic, making them the entrance to the passage. He himself understands this, so he uses this to seal the gods who came to this world...... The creatures outside the walls no longer affect the creatures inside the walls all the time, that is, one world, and another world. Holmes picked up the chalk and listed what he said on the blackboard.

"It's!" Wang Feng felt that these things were beyond the scope of his cognition, and he was a little unacceptable.

"There are many famous people in history, such as Socrates...... Da vinci...... Galileo. In fact, everyone's thinking has been the same since the beginning, but why is there such a big gap? Because some people are inspired by the creatures outside the walls...... When humans were still a group of monkeys, one day the walls disappeared, and the creatures outside the walls stimulated the abilities of the monkeys, and then returned to their own world...... And that group of monkeys is constantly evolving. ”

The huge blackboard is secretly numbed by Sherlock Holmes.

"But all this is just your conjecture, and it is so absurd that there is simply no logic at all......" These words were not so much addressed to Sherlock Holmes as to Wang Feng himself.

Sherlock Holmes looked back at Wang Feng and threw away the chalk casually, and walked to a pile of books with an excited face: "When we don't understand, these things have no logic for us, but when we understand these things and look back at these books, we will find that the truth is in front of me." It's just that we've ignored them, and that's the saddest thing. ”
