Chapter 44 I don't want to learn, I want to cry
Dagon would rather practice martial arts than practice until his whole body was limp and lying on the ground despite being hungry, he would not have the energy to eat, nor would he want to learn this terrible elf language at all.
"Dad, Sethet." Dagon then spitted out his spit, pulled his tongue out with his fingers, and said, "Tongle hurts."
"Then the Elf Word will end here today, and learn Purgatory Word again. You will think this is much simpler."
Purgatory is indeed simple. Some grammars and words are even somewhat similar to the Jiangu language. Many people say that the language of the Jiangu people was summarized in fighting monsters, and the original source lies here.
After studying for a long time, Dagon made some progress through rote memorization, but when the course turned to simplified language, the situation took a sharp turn. Human languages are rich and changeable, and they learn a lot. Some of them were originally written by themselves, and some were learned from the Jian Gu tribe or the elves. Halflings, dwarfs, orcs, and even spiritual languages and purgatory languages. It is simply unlimited to use which one is convenient. Learning a "simplified" language is not much different from learning all languages. What is simplified?
This time, Doma played the role of a great savior. They originally agreed to practice martial arts today, Doma waited and came to the door. In the afternoon, he couldn't stand it and came to him. You must know that Doma was usually very afraid of Tormond, and when he saw him, he would always be restrained and his whole body trembled.
"Ah... I'm here to play with Dagon... No, I'm here to discuss the Hunter Union's affairs with him." Doma said it was so easy. Before he became an adult, he could say that he would play together, but now he had to work together. He saw Dagon squatting on the ground and wiping his tears, but there was no sign of falling and rolling around the ground, which was not like it was caused by training. "Wasn't I here at the time?"
Dagon turned around and his beard seemed to have increased, but his cheeks and cheeks were swollen. "I'm sorry, I forgot to have an appointment with you before."
He winked violently, but unfortunately Doma couldn't understand this time. It was Tormond who decided to let Dagon go, and the story of Dagon learning the elf language could not be spread, just to prevent the subtleties of the apprentice.
"Well, it is very important to learn hunter skills, it is related to whether there is meat on the dining table. Okay, you guys go and practice, don't worry about me."
Dagon was relieved and hurried back to the house to get his hunting axe and a hunter's coat. The two hurried to the hunting guild.
Because of the corpse-worn demon, the acting president who had just replaced his former was removed again. He had no responsibility, but his responsibilities included taking the lord's anger for the hunting union, so both presidents became ordinary hunters, and the level was only slightly higher than the eight new hunters. The order for prohibiting hunting was not lifted yet, and the two former presidents did not dare to do it idle, so as not to see the lord again, and they were in a bad mood, and they were unlucky again. Therefore, the hunting union began to train the eight new hunters in advance, which happened to be led by the two former presidents.
So Dagon had to study at the Hunting Union from early morning to noon, and went back in the afternoon to receive intensive training of "foreign language". He originally thought this would be miserable, but after falling asleep at night, he found himself in the middle of the soul, and Reed asked him if he was practicing "Runish Breathing".
"Give me aside..." Dagon was lying on the ground and cheating. Anyway, he was beaten to death in the middle of the soul, and he was just going back to sleep. "This is the middle of the soul. How can I practice rune breathing? Don't ask, I haven't had time to practice recently!"
"Then what are you doing?" Reid asked.
"The Hunter Guild and Learn Language." After answering, Dagon thought of a question: "Don't you know what I'm doing recently?"
"I can only go out in places similar to the middle of the soul, and I can't understand the things outside through your eyes and ears." Reed waved his hand and drove away the clouds and said, "Only those things that are very deep into the soul will appear here. What you have experienced recently has not reached that level, except for the two words Neil displayed here. Are you a little absent-minded when you are in the Hunter Guild and when you are learning languages?"
"No!" Dagon denied it first, but he knew that he had just expressed his emotions and did not express the facts. He adjusted his state, pounded his head with his fists, and said, "Sorry, I was hit by you. I was a little absent-minded and thought about a lot of things that were not related to the actual needs. Reed, I really want to practice mana, but I really don't have time, and in the middle of the soul, I don't have the body."
"But you can learn the language here and then spend your time learning the language outside practicing mana."
"You know how to speak elf?"
Reed smiled, stroked his beard with pride and said, "I have been here for 60 years, and I have been learning languages for fourteen of them to chat with the gods. Those dark and glowing shadows like to mix languages, and they think that they are suitable for them are very annoying. But I have a strong language level because of this."
"Good and misfortune depend on each other, this is a good word. If you can teach me more language, especially such words, I will indeed save time outside."
Reed nodded: "Dagon, as long as you want to learn and I can, I will teach you."
"I learn language first, then mana, runes and spells." Dagon stretched out his palm and grabbed it with his five fingers. "I want to learn everything, including becoming a lord, a weapon master, and a hero."
"I don't know anything. For example, you have to go to Tormond, the hero is forgot to be a hero, I haven't been a master of it before, so I can't teach you. But the lord... It's easy to be a lord in this world, it's not difficult at all."
Dagon raised his eyebrows, and he didn't say he believed it or didn't believe it, just study it.
"Dagon, my method of learning and teaching language is different from others. I will not tell you the elf language like a teacher in the face of a large number of students, but will tell you history. It is important to know that learning language is learning history. Any language can only rely on history and stories to have flesh and blood and survive. I use elf language to tell you the elf story and simplified language to tell human stories. I will tell you the story of the human story in simplified language. I will tell you the story of the story you want to hear, and I will tell you the language."
"Okay!" Dagon nodded and said, "I will learn whatever you think is suitable for me to study. And I will concentrate and keep what I have learned."
"You can't be lazy here. Are you really learning? I can know by looking at the state of the soul domain?" Reed said: "I will tell the story of elves first, then humans and monsters, and finally I will tell the story of the Jiangu people and my stories."
"What's the word "inspiration"? My mother taught me... By the way, it's called "Shut the ears."
Dagon is not a genius. He just listened to his parents and believed that learning can change his destiny and therefore liked to learn. Although divine enlightenment is rare, he is not the first or only one; natural mana spillover is at best, which is equivalent to being taller or having better eyesight, and it is not a decisive advantage. Dagon has a soul who is eager to learn, and his luck is that those who can and are willing to teach him are by his side.
In the middle world of the soul, Dagon can abandon physical needs and use all his thoughts to learn. This middle world is free from fatigue when climbing the steps, and there is no negative impact such as hunger, sleepiness, weakness, etc., so it can exert a high learning efficiency. The most important of all the advantages is that learning here will not delay rest. If he leaves the middle world of the soul, he will wake up refreshedly and bring all the knowledge he learned in one night.
In the initial plan, Dagon learns the Elf Language at night, so he can practice mana during the day. This plan failed, but also succeeded. No parent thinks that their children are excellent enough, and all parents think that their children can be better. Therefore, the Elf Language that Dagon has made obvious progress requires diligence. Tormond will only give him more lessons until there is nothing to teach. Perhaps—just perhaps—the parents will understand that what they want their children to do is just a projection of their expectations in the past, and sooner or later, the children must leave their own shadow.
The reason why the plan was successful was because Dagon found that he could practice mana while studying. Due to the obvious recent progress, Dagon asked his father to relax when studying, such as taking the position of his mind.
He used the first sitting posture of rune breathing method, trying to practice magic power while learning language. Dagon's idea is very simple: since this method is called rune "breathing" method, then making the cultivation process like breathing is the right meaning. In the first stage of practice, the sitting posture is frame, the standing posture is vertical, the lying posture is horizontal, the walking posture is stroke and stroke, punching and kicking means dots and hooks, and some special strokes in special positions are linked to the human body and runes.
Mana can flow in runes, which is very regular and is much more efficient than in nature. Inspired by this, the ancestors of the Jiangu clan summarized the rune breathing method in order to learn from runes and shape the human body into an equally efficient mana operation carrier.
In rune breathing, breathing means being as normal as breathing, not using it like breathing. The predecessors did not have the idea of Dagon, the idea of practicing magic power while actually sitting, standing, and lying down. They also tried it, but found that it was not possible. All practice methods are built on the frame of sitting posture, and the frame cannot run automatically. As long as you leave the focus, the cycle will be interrupted. No matter how energetic a person is, he cannot maintain control at all times, and cannot teach his body to perform work that it does not support.
However, Dagon established three cycles instead of two in his sitting position, one of which encompasses the brain. Many people may have experienced a state where something is repeated too many times and will keep surrounding the mind. For example, after listening to songs too many times and reciting words too many times. These things may even continue into dreams and are played over and over again by the brain.
The body will automatically relax, but the brain is different. If the elves are trees, the scars will slowly recover; humans are flesh and have no memory after bleeding, then the ancient clan is the stone, and the marks left behind are more stubborn than other races.
Dagon hypnotizes himself with the loop of his head when practicing. No matter where he goes or what he is doing, the loop is going on, but the efficiency is slightly reduced. This loop is weaker, but it keeps running, so it can be used to drive other loops as a starter. Reed calls this loop a pacemaker, and each loop is a signal that makes other loops rotate.
