Chapter 119: The Truth of the Wizarding World
It's sunny outside.
This is in stark contrast to the gloomy atmosphere in the museum. Perhaps the negative atmosphere in the museum is just Zheng Qing's illusion. But he did feel a calming warmth in the sun outside.
The gentleman took him and found a secluded meadow.
Sit on the floor.
"Everyone has their own morning in their hearts," Mr. half-leaned on a large bluestone, touched a small red clay teapot out of nowhere, sipped tea, and said slowly: "...... When the time comes, people will wake up on their own. ”
"Sometimes this morning is an alarm bell and a rooster crows, sometimes this morning is a slap in the face and an initiation, and sometimes this morning is after you know the 'truth'......"
Zheng Qing began to sit on his side, with his hands on his side, squinting, lazily looking at the sun, and listening to his lecture. But soon, he noticed that this posture was not respectful, so he changed to a kneeling position.
"Lie down, lie down and be comfortable. The gentleman waved his hand and motioned for the boy to be more comfortable: "Don't care about these details......"
Zheng Qing blinked, was as good as a stream, held the back of his head with both hands, and lay comfortably on the grass with a click.
A few butterflies danced around the two wizards, one old and one young.
Not far from the treetops, orioles and larks let out their voices and sang loudly.
The meadows of May have begun to enter the most luxuriant time of the year, the soft lawn is like an expensive Persian carpet, lying on it, the breath of nature swarming into the nose of the young wizard, with the warm sun and soft wind, Zheng Qing found the feeling of sleep again.
The gentleman's voice seemed to come from an extremely distant place:
“...... What is the truth? The truth is the truth. It is hidden under countless appearances and illusions, the most real existence in this world. The truth is that one plus one equals two, sound travels at a speed of 340 meters per second in the air at 15 degrees, space is warped by mass, two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom can form a water molecule, and so on. ”
"It doesn't sound that scary. Zheng Qing interjected.
The gentleman smiled.
"yes, that doesn't sound scary. He muttered, "That's the scariest part." Because it is commonplace, and it is accustomed to it, and it is not taken for granted...... It's like no one thinks it's a terrible thing to eat hot pot and sing songs. Cockroaches don't know spring and autumn, mayflies don't know the world, and what do people know outside of their own world?"
"The universe is empty and crowded with people. ”
From a certain point of view, Zheng Qing can understand the 'terrible' in Mr. 's) words - there are too many coincidences in the birth of this world, and countless horrors and horrors are intertwined to build a delicate balance, so that there is a place for life to survive.
But from another angle, Zheng Qing felt that Mr.'s words were a bit subtle.
"It sounds like you're talking about the horror of 'ignorance,'" the boy would always be inexplicably braver at such times, and he would have the audacity to ask, "Since we don't know what's out there and feel terrible, it means that ignorance is terrible!"
The gentleman sighed softly: "Ignorance is so fearless, so you can bravely explore all kinds of possibilities." It is the driving force behind the progress of all civilizations. But the truth is different. Because we can't change the truth...... It stayed there all the time, watching us struggle coldly. ”
Zheng Qing held his breath.
His intuition told him that the gentleman would say some very important 'truths' today, and these 'truths' would be difficult to accept. This curiosity was like a cat's claw scratching his heart, which made him a little uncomfortable lying down, so he simply sat up again, hugged his legs, and leaned to the side of the gentleman.
The gentleman glanced at him.
"How much do you know about demons?" asked the gentleman abruptly.
Zheng Qing was stunned for a few seconds.
"Demons?" he hesitated, and replied cautiously, "Demons and wizards are natural enemies, and they live on the flesh and blood of wizards. According to the different birth methods, demons are divided into three categories: original bloodline inheritance, demon invasion, and demon infection; according to the scope of activities, they are divided into krakens, lich and other forces; the wizarding alliance has a wanted warrant for demons, which lists thousands of demons large and small, the kraken king and the lich king are the two most powerful guys, and the kraken king also has four krakens under the kraken king, which are mist, iceberg, whirlpool, and sea god...... Oh, and also, it is said that the demon has an old ancestor who is worshipped by all the demons, and he is the source of the birth of all demons. ”
The answers sounded messy, a little confusing, and unfocused.
But this is not to blame Zheng Qing.
Although he has dealt with demons several times in the nearly one year since he entered school, most of them have been hunted unilaterally. The only time she had spoken to a demon, the pretty banshee had been repeating creepy things like 'you smell so good' in a terrible tone.
The school library has a lot of books related to demons.
When the Sin Hunting Team was training, Zheng Qing also read it. It's just that those books are more related to demon analysis, finding demon traces, the weaknesses of different demons, and how to hunt a demon in the shortest possible speed. There is very little difficult content such as the nature of demons.
As for Professor Montella's laboratory, the focus is on the research and use of demon bloodlines - perhaps there is information related to the origin of the bloodline in the laboratory, but Zheng Qing can't access it. He's just a little assistant who is proficient in talismans.
The gentleman held the little red clay teapot and squinted at the sun overhead, listening to the young wizard beside him babble about the 'truth' that was widely spread in the wizarding world.
Long.
The sun overhead seemed to be a little weak by his staring, and quietly hid behind the clouds.
The environment on the meadow is becoming more and more pleasant.
Zheng Qing finally poured out the bit of ink in his stomach and shut up.
"Demons, demons. The gentleman repeated the word in a low voice, paused for a moment, and then said slowly: "Demon, if something goes wrong, it is a demon, and a demon, obsessed with it is a demon." Demons, demons...... Originally, it was just some obsessed with the ...... of the abnormality Exist. Wizards, on the other hand, are no different from demons. Wizards are also a type of demon. ”
The young student swallowed quietly.
If Mr.'s words are heard by outsiders, it will definitely cause an uproar. In the year since he entered the wizarding world, he had never seen a similar point of view in any books, nor had any wizard said anything similar to him.
Is there no difference between a wizard and a demon?
Zheng Qing knew that the lich was a group of wizards who had fallen under the demonic aura. But that's about it. When the lichs started eating people, they became them.
"Wizards don't eat people!" the young student sat up straight, a little unacceptable: "We are different from them!"
