Chapter 27 There is no normal person in this room(1/2)
"You owe me a favor if you drink the Coke I stole. Please help me more in the future," Xia Mi said.
Three people were dragging their luggage out.
Lu Mingfei patted his chest and said confidently: "What's the point? Senior brother will definitely take care of you. If he doesn't take care of you, who will he take care of?"
He deliberately took a step behind, looked at the figures of his senior brother and junior sister walking side by side, and raised his head with squinted eyes.
The weather is great today, the sun is blazing, and the warm sunshine makes people lazy.
At this time, everything has not officially started yet, but has slowly begun along the established track.
He stands here, standing at the node of fate, and he is bound to use power and violence to force the goddess of fate to reverse the established future.
The so-called destiny has always been in his own hands!
…
…
hyatt regency chicago hotel room.
Lu Mingfei was lazily leaning on the sofa, with his right foot resting on his left foot, sitting in a very free-spirited manner.
This famous hotel is located on the bank of the Chicago River. Looking out, you can see the white cruise ship slowly passing by in the water. The enthusiastic and fat black tour guide on the bow is exaggerating the golden years when the city was founded with a group of foreign tourists.
"Senior brother, is the day of freedom coming soon again?" Lu Mingfei asked casually as he kept changing channels.
Calculating the time, it is another year for freshmen to enter, and the fine tradition of Kassel College - "Free Day" is naturally indispensable.
As a classmate named Lu Mingfei who successfully debuted in "Freedom for a Day" and was at the peak of his career, he is very concerned about this.
"Well, Professor Manstein has already set up defenses for the Freedom Day. It is said that this year will be very strict, saying that we will not be able to get Frigga bullets again." Chu Zihang lowered his head and said.
He was standing against the wall, flipping through an ancient book annotating the "Jade Record", a reference book for "Level 3 Alchemy and Chemistry".
The so-called "Jade Record" is a book engraved on an emerald tablet in 1900 BC. The author claims to be the trinity god Hermes in Egyptian mythology. It is one of the oldest alchemical classics handed down.
There are only 13 sentences, but it contains all the truths of alchemy. Professors at Kassel College believe that this is actually a fragment of a dragon classic.
Lu Mingfei glanced at the cover of the book and lost interest.
The ultimate of alchemy is also the ultimate of dragon power. Its essence is to control the elements of heaven and earth with one's own will, and then rewrite the rules.
Human beings can learn parts from ancient books, but they will never get the essence, because the most precious and essential part is only passed down by blood and cannot be learned.
"But Professor Manstein declares this every year, right?"
"Well, except for Professor Manstein, everyone in the main school likes to have a free day, including some professors and the equipment department."
"Professor Manstein is so pitiful, he is being squeezed out."
"It's not really about exclusion. The main reason is that it's a huge expense to deal with the war every year. Professor Manstein is the school's accountant and everyone performs his or her duties."
"I understand, housekeeper!"
"Well...this title is correct."
"Senior brother, will you participate in Freedom Day this year?"
Hearing this question, Chu Zihang raised his head and said thoughtfully: "If nothing else happens, it will still be divided into the student union and the Lion Heart Club. Why, junior brother, do you want to join too?"
He thought to himself that if you, junior brother, also wanted to participate, then Lion Heart Club might as well just vote for it this year, so as not to be embarrassed.
Lu Mingfei paused for a moment and recalled the free day in his sophomore year in his previous life.
What were you doing at that time?
Oh...it seems that I was dragged away by Finn Dog to drink with the paparazzi brothers from the News Department.
I have to say that the brothers in the news department are all talented, their words are witty and funny, and they are good at what they do. Even when paying the bill, one of them will get drunk faster than the other.
"You shouldn't participate." Lu Mingfei said sarcastically.
"That's good..." After Chu Zihang finished speaking, he lowered his head and studied the ancient books.
The sound of running water came from next door, and Xia Mi was taking a shower in the bathroom.
Originally, they were supposed to be divided into two rooms, but the lovely junior sister said that she was too embarrassed to ask her senior brother to pay. Living in a separate room was too much of a favor, and she would rather go to the park to pitch a tent.
So the happy days of sharing a house came suddenly.
"Ascend from the earth to heaven, and descend from heaven to obtain the power above and below. In this way, you can gain the glory of the world and stay away from darkness and ignorance."
Chu Zihang recited two obscure sentences from "The Record of Jade" in a low voice and took notes casually.
Lu Mingfei plucked his ears and pretended he didn't hear anything.
If it was the last time, he wouldn't have felt anything. He just felt that there was something wrong with his senior brother's head. The beautiful junior sister was taking a bath next door, but he was holding a boring reference book and chewing on it for more than half an hour. With this meditation skill, he was really worthy of it.
He is a poor monk and a noble son!
But after the incident on the highway, the senior brother went out of his way to whisper in his ear, so there was a problem.
Are you testing yourself?
Brother is so cute.
Lu Mingfei couldn't help but chuckle when he thought that his senior brother had not said a word to him because of the incident on the highway and was as silent as a log.
Senior brother is still like this, always righteous and has nothing to say.
"What's wrong?" Chu Zihang raised his head, looked at his junior brother who was holding a pillow and giggling, and asked blankly.
"Ahem, I thought of something funny and couldn't help it." Lu Mingfei cleared his throat and said seriously.
"Your Chinese translation is missing the subject. From the context of the context, Newton's 'it' refers to the 'only miracle' he mentioned earlier, or 'Tai Yi'. This sentence can also be translated as 'Tai Yi rises from the earth'
Enter the sky, and then fall back to the ground, thereby absorbing the power of the upper and lower realms. In this way, you will have the glory of the entire world and be far away from ignorance."
Xia Mi came out of the bathroom and wiped her long hair with a towel.
"The key is what does 'it' refer to, which I think is spirit."
"If 'Tai Yi' refers to the spirit, then the upper world and the lower world refer to the different spiritual worlds of dragons and humans?" Chu Zihang raised his head after pondering for a long time, and began to discuss with his junior sister in a very academic tone.
This is really an unexpected gain.
He originally wanted to try to see if he could get anything out of his junior brother, but he didn't expect his junior brother to have any reaction. Instead, the junior sister he had just met played a little question-and-answer game with him, and the communication was smooth and the thinking was clear.
.
"You can also understand it this way. It describes a process of evolving from humans to dragons and achieving self-perfection. Perhaps hybrids can try to enter the spiritual realm of dragons and then return to the human world to gain complete power."
"Is it possible for humans to evolve into dragons?" Chu Zihang wondered.
Of course you can. Brother, your great enemy Odin is an example.
Lu Mingfei lazily changed his position and lay on the sofa, complaining in his heart.
"Some researchers among the medieval "Jade Records" once thought that this was a work that was based on the name of God, but the author was 'infinitely close to God' and 'stealing God's laws' because he was afraid that this law would be understood by ordinary people.
That's why I used secret words." Xia Mi said slowly.
"Sacrificial bodies in ancient Egypt?"
"Yes, the sacrificial script is only mastered by monks. Arabic replaced Egyptian as the lingua franca of Egypt in the seventh century AD, so the sacrificial script is difficult to decipher. The Newtonian translation you used may be full of errors..."
The junior sister coughed and looked like she had seen through it but would not say anything.
"Yes. Cracking the ancient Egyptian text began with the Frenchman Champollion in the Napoleonic era." Chu Zihang nodded.
"Yes, imagine what symbol would be used to represent the name of the god 'Hermes' in a sacrificial document?"
Chu Zihang pondered for a while, "Animals, most Egyptian gods have animal symbols. They appear in the murals as human bodies and animal heads. They also especially worship birds, such as eagles, with Hermes as the messenger god.
His identity. His symbol is probably some kind of bird."
"Yes, in the translation of hieroglyphics, once a certain mark that is difficult to explain appears, it is often translated as the name of a god or some kind of totem..."
"What you mean is that the original translator may have translated a certain symbol as 'Hermes' because he did not understand all the sacrificial bodies, and thus concluded that the author of this book was Hermes. In fact, the original text did not mean this.
?I see!"
Lu Mingfei couldn't help but start grabbing the sofa with his head.
He complained in his heart that Senior Brother, you know what you are doing, can't you see that Junior Sister is guiding you?
And it’s still a trick that’s actually adulterated!
Chu Zihang was surprised to find that his junior brother started banging his head on the sofa.
Is it too boring?
"Yes, "Jade Record" is considered to be the work of the god Hermes, because it says at the beginning of the translation, 'I saw a piece of jade with writing on it, which was written from the hands of Hermes.
Write it down. From there I found the following words...'. But this translation may be simply wrong. When that jade tablet still existed in the world, 'Hermes' was just a bird-shaped emblem on it,
It may not represent Hermes. Later translators believed that it was Hermes. The possible reason is that Hermes, as a god, is a special existence. He has the symbol of mischief and messenger.
So it sounds reasonable to interpret a bird-shaped symbol that symbolizes God as Hermes, indicating that the secret of this book comes from a messenger from the divine realm."
"No, the possibility of translation errors is not high. You are right. Ancient Egyptian is a dead script, but the jade tablet with the "Jade Record" was discovered in the 13th century BC. At that time, the entire Egypt knew how to offer sacrifices.
There were still many monks of this type. When alchemy was at its peak in the Middle Ages, "Jade Record" had translations in various languages, some of which must have been based on earlier translations. Newton's translation appeared very late, but he must have referred to various translations.
To be continued...
