Chapter 1,070 Dogma
As the heavy object crashed into the straw pile, Juan heard a burst of unintelligible curses. Although I didn't understand the meaning, it sounded from the tone of the speaker that he must be very angry. And that voice sounds a bit familiar...
A certain unlucky traveler used the dialect of his hometown and cursed: 'Mom is so hot! The game got me wrong! Who said a straw stack could be used as a cushion for a leap of faith! My butt broke in half! ’
At this time, the children and Juan, who had stopped because of surprise, discovered that there were two familiar figures next to the gate of the Technology Guild. One was the gray cat Hardy, who was licking the milk on the plate, and the other was the dark elf Melanie who had just finished feeding the cat, stood up, and walked towards the straw stack.
The dark elf was wrapped in the guild uniform, but her beautiful figure could not be concealed. With swaying steps and hands behind her back, Mai Erxi approached the straw pile, bent down and said in a sweet voice: "Master, although you look very smart, you do some stupid things from time to time. "
A hand stretched out from the straw pile, and someone said: "Don't look at the joke and pull me out. Also, tell Uzov that there is no need to put straw piles in such a place in the future. Such stupid things, There won’t be a second time.”
While supporting someone, Miles made an exaggerated expression and said: "The reason why you asked Uzov from the beginning to put a cart of straw here is because you want to jump from the bell tower one day." Come down."
"Forget about this, and never mention it again." Lin said helplessly, touching his waist and hips as he emerged from the straw pile.
At this time, the clever child quietly bypassed everyone. After touching the bell tower first, he excitedly said loudly: "I won, I won, I was the first to reach the bell tower. I won! Sir, you will keep your promise."
After baring his teeth and cracking his mouth for a while, Lin finally managed to put on an expression of appreciation, looked at the clever boy, and said, "It's a good try. But it's a pity that I arrived at the bell tower first and waited for a long time before you guys came."
"No, sir, you did not arrive at the bell tower. You are now on the cart with straw, right? I was the first one to arrive." The child defended seriously.
"So I said, it's a good try, kid." Lin smiled, but said with a meaningless expression: "Teach you a good boy. To be a winner in a game, you don't need to be the best at the game. Instead, you can make up the rules of this game at will. So you did a good job, at least you tried hard. But you must also have the strength to protect the rules that are beneficial to you, so that such attempts can be smoothly transformed into the fruits of victory."
Some children who are unwilling to give up try to make a last-ditch effort and say sternly: "Sir, after all, you just don't intend to keep your promise."
"I abided by the rules we made in advance, not using magic, not limiting the route, starting from the back, not hurting people or destroying things, and then I arrived at the clock tower first. But I got bored of waiting, so I went to the top of the building to take a look. It depends on where you run to. Strictly speaking, it's not that I don't keep my promise, it's just that we didn't agree on how to get to the bell tower. In this case, we should default to arriving first by any method. It will all be recognized. So no matter what rules you plan to add after the fact, I have no interest in bargaining, and certainly don’t want to waste time listening to your demands that are destined to not be realized. So save that time."
At this time, even if the children don't understand the world, they still know that there is no chance. Most people were crestfallen and gave up on messing around. But there are always one or two thorns that feel dissatisfied. As the chief leader against the tyranny of magicians, Ezio said dissatisfiedly at this time: "Sir, is this what you want to tell us? The strong make all the rules, and then A strong person can ignore all rules."
While he was drinking the warm scented tea sent by the dark elf Mai Ershen to chase away the chill of the early spring morning, Lin heard the question from the boy who was no longer fat, but he didn't mean any contempt at all. But after thinking about it, he said: "Is it too late or too early for you to discover this fact now? Ezio. After all, according to your intelligence, if you can discover this fact by yourself, it should be already That's the limit. I should praise you, right?"
Lin never misses an opportunity to ridicule this kid who always plays devil's advocate. And Ezio seemed to have figured out the magician's temperament. As long as there was a verbal confrontation, he would respond verbally. But if his prank goes too far, he will definitely beat someone up!
Since he was still a child and couldn't defeat adults, he had to put in a lot of effort into talking. Being severely ridiculed, of course he retorted and said: "Yes, even a child like me can understand it. As a magician, sir, you can only say such things, and it doesn't seem to be anything special."
"Hey, that's a good attempt. The reason why I don't tell you something too profound is because I'm afraid you won't understand. Besides, most people can recognize this level, which is enough for them to realize that they should put themselves in a good position. In what position. Either strive to strengthen yourself and become a person who makes rules and has the strength to protect them; or be willing to abide by the rules set by others and live a peaceful life without thinking about any heresy. Don't you Would you like to live a simpler life?"
Some children were thoughtful, some were struggling, and of course some had unsatisfied expressions on their faces, staring at a certain magician with their eyes wide open. It's like you can penetrate the other person with just your eyes. Among the various attitudes, the two adults among the children are probably the most special. Shi Dongman didn't care, but Huan looked like he was watching a good show.
Taking another sip of warm tea, Lin shrugged and said, "Since you want to know, then I'll tell you, as a wise magician, how should I understand such a thing. In fact, this will also happen some time in the future. One day I will tell you something that I hope you will spend your whole life understanding: nothing is true and everything is true."
There are only a few numbers, but in fact most people who hear it are at a loss. Except for Shi Dong who remained indifferent, Juan frowned. Outside the group of children, whether it was Miles watching the play or Hardy, the gray cat who had nothing to do with them, they all fell into thinking after hearing someone's words.
At first glance, this sentence seems a bit out of tune. The first half of the sentence seems to be denying the world. The second half of the sentence seems to be advocating for people to act recklessly. This is not a good concept for children's education.
Lin laughed, looked at the adults present and said, "Just by looking at your expressions, I know you must have gone astray."
