The earl looked at the youngest Weier and asked aloud: "Weier, how does the ecstasy fish taste?"
Wei'er looked at the remaining fish head in the bowl and said hesitantly: "It tastes... pink and tender, and quite delicious, but... I don't dare to eat the fish head."
The earl frowned slightly, but didn't say much. He looked at Faile, who was almost the same age as Weier: "Faier, what do you think?"
Fei'er had already eaten the whole fish without any fear, and even drank almost all the soup in the bowl with a spoon.
Hearing the count's question, he replied: "It's delicious. It's better than the fish I've eaten before. I like it."
"That's good." The count nodded lightly.
"That's right." Feier thought of something, took the spoon and reached into Weier's bowl next to her, scooped up the remaining fish head and put it directly into her mouth, swallowed it in one gulp, and continued to the earl, "Weier doesn't dare
Eat, I will help her eat it. As you said, waste is not a good habit."
count:"……"
After a few seconds of silence, he turned and looked to the side again.
However, he did not ask Hill, skipped Hill, and looked directly at Li Hyuk.
"Li He, what do you think of the taste of the ecstasy fish?" the count asked, his voice becoming more serious.
Li He's eyes flashed slightly, knowing that business was coming.
He slowly put down the spoon in his hand, looked at the count and replied: "It tastes very good, I like it very much."
"As long as you like it." The countess nodded, and then her tone changed suddenly and asked, "During the day, I asked Fiona to inform you that I am going to demolish the stone house. You should know this, right? Do you have any objections?"
Li He blinked, and almost at the same time, he felt multiple looks from the sisters falling on him, all of which meant to persuade him - don't argue with the Countess.
Li He lowered his eyebrows and didn't speak for several seconds. Just when everyone thought he acquiesced, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the earl and said: "Actually, I have a little opinion... If possible, I want to keep the stone house.
Not to be demolished.”
The whole place was silent, even the occasional sound of clinking tableware disappeared, and several sisters stopped eating in unison.
The air is a little solid.
"Oh?" The countess raised her eyebrows, looked at Li He carefully, and asked, "You don't want to demolish it? What's the reason?"
"It's more important to me. The things in it can help me do some research."
"Study what?"
"Some curious things."
"Curious things? Ha, have you ever thought that you are too curious sometimes, especially in the past six months." The Countess' voice raised slightly, "You are a good child, but being too curious is not good.
It will be easy to take detours.
I don't know what you are pursuing, but if you want to pursue the same power as your sisters, I can definitely give it to you, even stronger than them.
In a sense, your sister only has the power of a wizard apprentice, but I can give you the power of a wizard. The premise is that you must be obedient and don't think wildly, because it is very dangerous and can easily go astray.
If that's the case, I will take back my power just as I gave it to you. Do you...understand?"
"I understand, but..." Li He nodded, paused and said, "However, what I pursue is not the same power as my sisters."
"Then what do you want to pursue?"
"Rather than the power itself, I want to pursue the mystery behind the power." Li He said. To be precise, it is to pursue the source of power, explore the composition of power, and understand the mechanism of power... He added in his heart.
"Oh -" the Countess elongated her voice softly and laughed, "The secret behind the power? Do you want to pursue this? I have to say, this is a very courageous, even bold idea."
The countess's voice gradually became lower and more serious: "Your idea is good, but it is too naive and even stupid. The world of wizards is a dark forest full of mystery and danger. Even a leaf in the forest, a wizard
You may not be able to study it thoroughly in your lifetime, but you want to explore the deepest secrets of the forest. Is this possible?
Have you really thought about the difficulty of reaching the end of this road? Based on your personal ability, can you really succeed? Why should you succeed? Even if you 'succeed', what method will you use to verify that everything you pursue is correct?
Just like the wild beast in the forest, trying to catch the reflection of the moon in the lake, even if it drowns, it will only catch a ball of water in the end."
"I know that this road is difficult, and it is difficult to reach the end, or even have no end. But if you work hard to take a step forward, there will always be a step of gain. As for how to verify whether the pursuit is correct, I think it can be verified with practice. From
Acquiring knowledge through practice and verifying knowledge through practice is my method."
Scientific knowledge may be overturned and updated due to changes in the outside world, such as from classical mechanics to quantum mechanics. But the thinking of scientific cognition is applicable anywhere and at any time. In Li He's view, true knowledge comes from practice.
The most correct way to know and understand the world.
The Countess fell silent, as if she was seriously thinking about Li He's words, and seemed to be controlling her emotions.
After a long time, the Countess sighed.
"You seem very determined."
"I just think I'm right."
"Interesting." The Countess looked directly at Li He, "If you really think you are right, then I can give you a chance to prove it. If you succeed, then I will no longer stop you from doing anything, and will even try my best to
I support you. But if you fail, you will have to bear the corresponding price - a very serious price."
"It sounds like this is a test."
"You can think so."
"When does that start?"
"Ha, don't be anxious, wait patiently, you will know soon. Before that, just be mentally prepared. Let me remind you, this test is huge, so you must be mentally prepared."
"I see."
"Well, let's have dinner here. After you finish eating, you can disperse." The countess waved her hand gently and said to everyone.
Weier, Feier and the others nodded, quickly stood up and left the table as if they were receiving an amnesty, and walked out of the restaurant.
Li He said goodbye to the Countess, followed behind, and walked out.
When he walked to the door, he paused briefly and turned to look at the countess again.
"Do you have anything else to say?" the Countess asked, raising her eyebrows. "Don't tell me that you have changed your mind. That will disappoint me."
"No." Li He shook his head and said calmly, "I just think the ecstasy fish I ate today is very interesting. If possible, I would like to have another live ecstasy fish."
"do what?"
"Do research."
"..." The Countess was silent for two seconds and said, "You will get it. In other words, your persistence has made me look forward to your performance in the test."
"I hope you won't be disappointed."
"hope."
