Chapter 115 Cross Validation
"Ancestor?"
"The ancestor is naturally the ancestor... he is the oldest and oldest elder of our rat tribe. Oh, by the way, it also has the greatest magic power. It is said that it once beat the school professor to tears!"
When it mentioned its ancestor, Dingdang's ears immediately became more enthusiastic about talking. It didn't seem to be afraid to show off to the young wizards in front of them the various glorious deeds and great images of its ancestor that were spread in the family - maybe it felt like this Doing this will make the wizards, cats and foxes in front of you respect you more.
Zheng Qing expressed doubts about this.
Although the little wizard Linguo's eyes shone and sighed in admiration at the story of Jingle Ears, and those stupid cats and stupid foxes sat in a row, clasping their paws, listening with great joy, but what is the truth, after all, they have nothing to do with it. The children in these walls are far away, and they have neither the means nor the interest to go on-site to verify.
Of course, having said that, Zheng Qing did not blatantly suspect that a certain very old mouse was the ancestor of these mice that wore clothes and could talk. He just wondered how far it would take a mouse to beat a school professor to tears. In addition, the age of their ancestors mentioned by Tink Ears is also very detailed.
According to Tinker Bell's words, their ancestors had served as the mentors of the rat tribe thousands of years ago; but just a few minutes later, when mentioning the medieval Black Death that affected White Din's world, the rat speaker added that this It happened when their ancestors were still young - because it wanted to describe the horrific plague as the serious consequences of their ancestors losing their temper when they were young - but in this way, the rat The age of the elders of the clan shrunk from thousands of years to hundreds of years in an instant.
The young public-sponsored student has reason to believe that if Dingdang Ears continues to tell a few stories about their ancestors, the age of the senior rat clan member may be even lower. After all, compared to humans, the lifespan of an average mouse only ranges from one to three years. Therefore, measuring the life of a mouse according to the human time span will inevitably lead to exaggeration and distortion.
"I remember we asked the guy named 'Ding Dong Ear' these questions before." The black cat came close to the little wizard's ear and whispered with him.
"I think the doctor wants to cross-check their answers." Lin Guo lowered his voice and replied in a low voice: "After all, we have only encountered two such beings so far... No one can say for sure what their answers are. Not right."
"Honestly, I can't even tell what they look like." The black cat sighed: "In my opinion, the mouse in clothes today is no different from the one we met last time... maybe from the beginning In the end there is only one talking mouse, but it’s schizophrenic.”
"What a great idea!" Lin Guo immediately gave a thumbs up, full of praise: "Professor Emma said that wizards must learn to make bold assumptions in order to go further on the road to knowledge... But you are a cat now! Even you Can’t you tell what these mice look like? I thought I was the only one who couldn’t tell them apart.”
"I'm a cat transformed by a wizard! I'm not a real cat!" Hearing this, the black cat suddenly felt a little tired: "Besides, people of different colors can also be face-blind... I can't tell the difference between a black cat. The gray mouse looks strange, isn’t it?”
"I just think we should be more careful when it comes to food." Lin Guo gave a very convincing reason: "Just like me, although eggs and eggs belong to different species, I can clearly understand I can tell the difference between fried eggs, poached eggs, tea eggs, and custard. Or, I can also tell the subtle difference in the degree of browning between different fried eggs... I think this makes sense.”
The black cat glanced at the little wizard silently.
He felt that the generation gap between him and this child was not only reflected in age and time concepts, but also included deeper differences in thinking styles, cognitive abilities, etc.
"Ahem!" Xiao Xiao, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the little mouse in front, looked back at the little wizard and the black cat who were whispering, coughed twice, stopped their discussion, then turned back and continued to ask:
"...Where do you usually live? Is it inside the school or outside the Silent Forest?"
Perhaps he felt that Dingdang Er's answer to the second question was good. While asking the third question, Dr. Xiao also threw the small diamond on his fingertip to the clothed mouse in front of him.
Mr. Mouse flexibly stretched out his paws, grabbed the beautiful stone that was sliding in an arc in mid-air, and skillfully stuffed it into his crotch. While thanking the doctor loudly in an exaggerated tone, he lowered his voice and explained in a low voice:
"I can't answer this question... You know, this matter is related to the safety of our tribe. If you want to know this question, you can first apply to the tribe and fill out a set of 180 pages of application form. If the ancestor Only after you nod can I tell you.”
"Otherwise, even if you open my head, stew my brains carefully, or spread them out into pancakes, you won't be able to find any useful information...I heard that this set of magic was invented by your wizards!"
When Zheng Qing heard this, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
Judging from what Dingdang Ears meant, they seemed to have been cast a magic similar to a silent contract before going out. In this way, the stray rats can still find their way home, but the hope of someone trying to find useful clues in their memories becomes very slim.
Xiao Xiao was not surprised when he heard this answer. He just shrugged, scratched the paper a few times with a quill, and then asked the last question:
"Then one last thing...why do you want those rats? If I remember correctly, another Mr. Rat in clothes that we met before also wanted to beg for a few rats from us."
"According to my understanding, those guys," Xiao Xiao pointed at the trembling rat ball not far away with the feather of his quill pen, and said, "They should belong to two completely different groups from you. Race...not to mention your magical abilities, your simple wisdom has already drawn a deep trench between you."
"It's like the difference between humans and monkeys. If humans plan to catch a few monkeys, then in addition to stuffing those distant relatives of primates into zoos, there will only be laboratories... So, can I guess, what do you want? Are those little mice going to do some experiments?"
Xiao Xiao's words were spoken quickly and urgently, but the words were pronounced clearly and the meaning was clear. It can be seen that he has been holding these words in his heart for a long time.
