Chapter 113 The Debate between Man and Dragon

The day before, it was still pouring rain like a dark night, and the rain fell wildly, turning the whole world upside down; today the weather in Chicago suddenly turned sunny again, and the temperature was so high that people wanted to take off their clothes and jump into the Chicago River to cool down.

It seems that with the arrival of the girl named "Xia Mi", the lingering and rainy spring has been driven away in a hurry, and the summer solstice suddenly came.

In the suite of the Hyatt Rency Chicago hotel, a large-screen LCD TV is playing the popular American cartoon movie "Up". The seventy-eight-year-old Carl and his eight-year-old child Russell are holding the flying house.

During the journey, the American humor filled the whole room as if it was the background music of the world.

Lu Mingfei was wiping his world view. The sunlight poured in through the window and was cut into two golden squares by the white blade.

Chu Zihang was holding a cowhide book and flipping through it. This was a reference book for "Level 3 Alchemy and Chemistry" and an ancient book with annotations for "The Record of Jade".

"Jade Record" is an ancient book from 1900 BC. It was engraved on an emerald slab and was found in a secret chamber under a pyramid. It is regarded as the origin of alchemy. The author claims to be Her, the trinity in Egyptian mythology.

There are only thirteen sentences in total, but they contain all the truths of alchemy.

The plump Winnie the Pooh balloon was propped up against the ceiling, and the end of the long white rope was still tied to Chu Zihang's wrist. He didn't know whether he forgot to take it off or didn't want to take it off.

This five-star hotel owned by Hyatt stands on the bank of the Chicago River. When you open the window, you can see a cruise ship with white sails slowly passing by in the river. The enthusiastic and fat black tour guide on the bow is talking to a group of foreigners.

Visitors dramatize the city's founding golden years.

"Brother, I'm sorry that I lied to you. In fact, I secretly brought some money with me." Lu Ming glanced in the direction of the bathroom, then lowered his voice and said to Chu Zihang, "I can't open a five-star hotel.

Come on, it’s okay to live in a B&B or something like that. Otherwise, if I move out, you can provide entrance guidance to junior sisters alone?”

The sound of water in the bathroom was gurgling, like the most pleasant sound of clear spring in the world. Xia Mi was taking a bath in the bathroom.

"Lu Mingfei." Chu Zihang also whispered. When he was with this junior brother, he basically spoke directly and rarely called Lu Mingfei by his name. Whenever he shouted these three words, it meant

I think his next words will be very serious.

"From the control room, something was very wrong when you proposed to provide entrance counseling for freshmen. You named me and asked strange questions all the way. You secretly cut the train tracks to prevent us from returning to the college. You also proposed to rent a room by yourself. What on earth do you want?

What to do?" Chu Zihang asked seriously.

I want you to marry a female dragon? And I want you to lure this female dragon to our camp to serve as a free powerful thug... Lu Mingfei had this plan in his heart, but it was enough to enjoy these words in his mind.

Well, of course it was impossible for him to say this.

"I think..." Lu Mingfei was making up lies quickly. The sound of water suddenly stopped. Xia Mi finished washing up, saving his life. There was no need to make up excuses to deal with his senior brother.

"Huh? Are you talking about giving me entrance tutoring?" Xia Mi came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, with wet drops still hanging on his neck, like dew on the jade vines.

"Did you hear everything about our conversation?" Lu Mingfei looked at Xia Mi who was wiping her long hair, feeling horrified.

"It's not all, I heard a lot." Xia Mi took out his ears, "I forgot to tell you, my hearing is actually pretty good."

Oh...what a ghost! It scares people to death, okay?

Does this girl still have such skills? Fortunately, he didn't choose to confess to his senior brother just now, otherwise what they faced now would not be a cute girl like a water rose, but an angry female dragon! Lu Mingfei was terrified.

"Hey, senior brother, haven't you taken off the balloon yet? It seems you really like Winnie the Pooh." Xia Mi looked at the intact white rope on Chu Zihang's wrist, covered his mouth and chuckled.

However, Chu Zihang turned a deaf ear to Xia Mi's ridicule. He just held the translation of "Cuiyulu" and muttered something: "Ascending from the earth to heaven, and descending from the sky, you can obtain the abilities above and below. In this way, you can gain the glory of the world.

Stay away from darkness and ignorance.”

This is Newton's translation of "Jade Record". This scientist himself was also a well-known magician, and he highly praised alchemy and theology. In the Middle Ages, theology and science were not so clearly distinguished, and alchemy was also considered a type of science.

branch.

Lu Mingfei glanced at Xia Mi who was wearing a bathrobe. She was as beautiful as flowers and had skin as smooth as gel. Her shoulders were so smooth that they seemed to slide off no matter what she put on them. On the other hand, this guy Chu Zihang was so cute and cute.

He ignored the ridicule of his junior sister and kept chewing on the book, just like an enlightened old monk with a mind as calm as water and an unwavering meditation!

Maybe even Chu Zihang himself didn't notice that the hand with the balloon wrapped around the rope was trembling quietly behind the book.

"I have also read this passage. Some people say it can be translated as 'Taiyi rises from the earth into the sky, and then descends to the ground again, thus 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 wiped his hair and naturally continued Chu Zihang's explanation, "The key to understanding this sentence lies in what 'Tai Yi' refers to."

Chu Zihang then raised his head and glanced at Xia Mi. He originally thought that this junior sister was a low-key student like Fingel, but he didn't expect that under her lively and playful appearance, she actually had such rich connotations.

In fact, deep down in his heart he felt a little...surprise?

"It can be understood as the materials used in alchemy, which are metals or other substances burned by flames." Chu Zihang continued to stare at the ancient books and said calmly.

"It can also be understood as 'spirit'." Xia Mi said.

"Spiritual theory made little progress after 1972."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "But there was a new paper on spiritual theory last year."

Lu Mingfei listened to the two people's heated discussion on "Jade Record". He silently poured himself a glass of boiling water and did not choose to get involved in the conversation.

Senior brother, senior brother, I have tried my best to create an environment for you to be in the same room. The beautiful woman is wearing a bathrobe and wearing pearls in front of me, and she even takes the initiative to talk to you, but you only think about your schoolwork and ancient books?

But Chu Zihang... is such a person. Lu Mingfei sighed in his heart, forget it, it would be good to talk about "Jade Record". At least the two of them have found a common topic to talk about, right? This is also in line with Chu

Zihang's interests and hobbies are better than staying together and saying nothing but staring at each other, right?

"Senior Brother Lu, what do you think the term 'Tai Yi' here refers to? Do you prefer the material theory or the spiritual theory?" Xia Mi cast his eyes over.

"Well……"

Lu Mingfei was confused. If you two argue, just argue. Don't get involved with me. It's hard for Chu Zihang to have a conversation with a girl alone. Although the discussion is a purely academic topic without any pink bubbles, why?

It's also a milestone leap! Who among Su Xiaoqiang, Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen can get such treatment? You must know that this guy is so stubborn that he can't even win over Su Qian who is near the water tower!

It's better for you. If you have the opportunity, you have to forcefully bring in a light bulb. Lu Mingfei glanced at Xia Mi bitterly, his eyes full of hatred that iron cannot be transformed into steel.

"Huh? Isn't Senior Brother Lu from the History Department? Students from the History Department should be very knowledgeable about the fragments of dragon classics such as "Jade Jade Record", right? Could it be that Senior Brother, you are not the type who doesn't like studying very much?" Xia

Mi frowned and asked.

She misunderstood Lu Mingfei's eyes and thought he was complaining about why she suddenly asked academic questions.

She had tried her best to change her wording to something as subtle as "not very fond of studying" instead of using a straightforward description like "bad student". After all, it was her first time meeting her and this Senior Brother Lu had just invited her to drink.

I'm a very nice person. Wouldn't it be impolite to complain about someone else's grades?

Lu Mingfei really wanted to nod wildly and say, Junior Sister, you guessed it right. He was a super scumbag in school. He usually only knew how to play around and knew nothing about these academic topics...but before he could speak, he

, Chu Zihang’s words came in.

"Lu Mingfei is indeed very knowledgeable. He is the only 'S' grade in the college. He has completed all the courses in advance and has also taken a lot of minor subjects." Chu Zihang put down the book and looked up at Lu Mingfei as well.

, "I also want to know your understanding of this sentence."

Hell, I didn’t interrupt and kept a low profile just so that I wouldn’t obscure your shine. Senior brother, am I trying so hard to get you to book a room with a girl just to let you turn this place into a small academic seminar?

I can't take either of you two... Lu Mingfei stared at Chu Zihang and cursed bitterly.

"Wow... so outstanding! You can't tell at all!" Xia Mi looked at Lu Mingfei with wide eyes, his tone full of disbelief, "Then don't hide it, Senior Brother Lu, please express your opinion!

"

Xia Mi held the bath towel on his chest with one hand, and rolled his other hand into a microphone shape in front of Lu Mingfei, looking like an academic reporter conducting an exclusive interview.

"If I have to choose one or the other, I'd rather support the spirit." Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes and replied.

"Yeah!" Xia Mi jumped up and gave a victory gesture to Chu Zihang. Senior brother Lu Mingfei also stood on her side. Now it was two to one.

Chu Zihang looked at this junior sister who had a boy-like personality and shook his head helplessly. Isn't this the character of a little boy who can use everything as a competition? At least since childhood, Chu Zihang has basically been "other people's family"

"Child", few people would take the initiative to compare with him, which is no different from humiliating oneself. After entering Kassel College, there was one, Caesar... He was indeed a big boy. Anyway, Chu Zihang always felt that

Caesar really didn't grow up.

"But in the report I gave to my mentor before, my point of view was 'self theory'." Lu Mingfei interrupted Xia Mi's victory celebration.

"'I said'?" Xia Mi and Chu Zihang looked at each other and realized that now the three of them hold their own opinions, and they have split into three factions.

"How to explain?" Chu Zihang asked Xiang Lu Mingfei. He seemed to be very interested in this new term proposed by the latter.

"Some researchers of the Medieval "Cuiyulu" once thought that this was a work that pretended to be in 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.

, so the secret language was used." Lu Mingfei looked at Chu Zihang and said.

"Sacrificial body in ancient Egyptian?"

"Yes, the sacrificial script was only mastered by monks in the Middle Ages. 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, Brother Chu, may be full of errors..." Xia Mi

She added that she and Lu Mingfei gave a high-five to congratulate them for taking the lead in jointly passing Chu Zihang's "material theory".

"But I don't completely agree with the spirit. If humans can evolve into dragons, there is no need or any way for her to return to the human world... Even if she is well versed in the laws of the human world and is proficient in imitating human nature and emotions, she still

She cannot return, because deep down... she is still not a real person." Lu Mingfei said this while looking at Xia Mi.

Xia Mi was a little silent after hearing this, and something obscure seemed to flash across her eyes quickly. Then she raised her head, looked at Lu Mingfei, and asked with a smile: "Then how can she return to being a human being?"

"This involves what I call the 'id theory'." Lu Mingfei said in a deep voice, "The id ascends to the upper world, while the self remains in the lower world. One side controls the power of dragons, and the other side retains the human soul.

…”

Lu Mingfei suddenly lowered his head in silence, because he thought of him and Lu Mingze for no reason... He suddenly realized that the words described in these words really resembled them, didn't they?

"That's an interesting statement." Chu Zihang nodded and quickly took notes in his notebook.

Xia Mi looked at Lu Mingfei deeply, as if there was something hidden in the other person's words that could pierce her bones. She seemed to have changed a person, from a nympho girl to a gloomy girl, secretly thinking about something in her heart.

An unknown secret.

Really? The self retains the human soul? So there is such a way... The golden light in Xia Mi's eyes flashed away, and the confidant sister in his heart seemed to show up again.

However, this weird atmosphere did not last long, because there was a sudden knock on the door of the guest room.

"Room delivery service." The person outside the door knocked politely three times and then said.

"Please come in." Lu Mingfei, who was closest to the door, opened the door.

A waiter in a black vest pushed a silver dining cart in, with a brand new white tablecloth hanging on it, and a trademark smile on his face.

"Mr. Chu Zihang ordered three fillet steaks, medium rare, three pasta, two black peppers and one tomato, three times freshly squeezed orange juice, plus a complimentary fruit platter for everyone staying in the suite. Please use it slowly.

." The waiter shook out the white cloth, and the aroma of grilled steak instantly filled the entire room.

"Ah ah ah, I love you the most, Senior Brother Chu!" Xia Mi jumped towards the dining car excitedly and almost walked away.

As the waiter left, the black waiter quietly thrust a piece of letter paper from the Hyatt Hotel into Lu Mingfei's hand.

The light yellow envelope was printed with a very familiar symbol - the half-decayed World Tree.
