939. Differences in time

If Sijana hadn't reminded herself of her simple and naive thoughts, Luther's first reaction might have been "There was too much noise during the New Year celebrations on the island, and it woke up Groudon."

They were indeed fireworks, but they were just extra-large fireworks. They had no gorgeous patterns, just the color of flames, but they were full of intimidating shock.

This is a kind of imitation, just like after Larulus evolved into Kirulian, he learned from Luther to eat with a spoon and chopsticks.

Seeing people hugging each other, Xiaoyin also learned to hug others with her wings.

Although the dark night demon who is good at spiritual power imitates Acerola, twisting the corners of the book and turning the pages.

When you want to understand and become a member of a certain group, you will always unconsciously imitate it to a certain extent and understand the profound meaning contained in it.

They followed Luther's example and used spoons and chopsticks to eat because Gardevoir felt that it was closer to a "human" individual and could empathize with Luther.

Learning to express closeness with hugs and kisses was a change that Xiaoyin and Manafei made as they got used to human society.

Learning Acerola's movements of turning the book was completely a result of admiration for Acerola's hard work. The Night Demon unconsciously wanted to emulate her and felt from the bottom of his heart that Acerola's movements were very elegant.

Now Groudon seems to be imitating it, and what he imitates is setting off fireworks.

As Aoi said, Groudon was not asleep, he seemed to be half asleep and half awake.

Acellola lit another firework and looked at the colorful flowers blooming in the night sky. Everyone was curious whether there was any movement on the volcanic island.

Luther quietly went to the ice room and found the orb being kept in the cellar of the ice room.

The speculation was far from being just a guess, and Luther needed further confirmation.

After becoming the owner of the island, he realized that he could not think about things as innocently and easily as Shijana.

After all, this is their home.

As early as when Groudon gave the orb to Qidao, he made it very clear that this thing could call him.

If Groudon is still sleeping, Luther will naturally not activate it. Now that Groudon is online, there is no need to worry about it.

The hand holding the orb trembled slightly, and while holding his breath and concentrating, the slowly dancing flames in the orb burst into flames, and then, the sound of heavy breathing came from Luther's mind.

The breath he exhaled was like thunder, swirling in Luther's head. The inhalation made Luther feel a hair in his heart, and he couldn't help but tighten his hands.

Even though he knew that Groudon was a being that could talk rationally, at this moment, Luther couldn't help but feel nervous.

It was Groudon who broke the silence.

The conversation through the orb was a very direct telepathy, and every word was clearly meaningless and low babble, but Luther still understood everything.

"Are you celebrating?"

Groudon was secretly observing Qidao, and could even understand that the atmosphere on Qidao was holding a celebration.

Luther held the orb tightly and thought for a long time about how to tell Groudon the meaning of the New Year, and finally spoke with a smile.

"Human beings call this the New Year. Every time it comes to the New Year, they celebrate it vigorously, saying goodbye to the old things and ushering in a new beginning."

Luther's self-conceited words became obscure and difficult to understand when it came to Groudon.

He overestimated the cognitive abilities of Groudon, who had little contact with humans.

Groudon could understand that this atmosphere was joyful, and the people living on the island were very happy.

I can understand celebration, and I can also understand that beautiful fireworks represent a release of emotions.

But I just don’t understand “year”.

If one word in a sentence is not understood, the entire sentence will be incomprehensible.

After Luther told Groudon with difficulty that the year is a unit of time established by humans, Groudon was silent for a long time.

"Is this worth celebrating?"

Groudon's voice was low, like the tentative roar of a wild beast before attacking.

Luther thought it was weird at first, but when he thought that he was teaching Groudon to understand human culture, a funny scene emerged in his mind, where he was tapping on the blackboard while Groudon was paying attention to the lecture below.

Groudon's question is difficult to answer. How can Groudon know the emotional meaning of the Chinese New Year to humans?

It is difficult for elves who have never set foot in human society to understand the cultural accumulation of human society over thousands of years, as well as the customs and traditions formed with it.

Many of these customs and traditions are related to elves. The sacrifice customs retained during the New Year in many parts of the world are actually aimed at elves.

They mourned the elves who left them, and presented their lives in the past year like a report, hoping that these beings who were no longer around them would be happy for them.

Next to the tombs of many people's families are the elves passed down from their ancestors and who grew up with them.

"You mean, celebrating the New Year, welcoming the New Year, the new year will be a new starting point, and everything will get better?"

Luther, the teacher, was sweating profusely while explaining, and finally allowed Groudon to extract some useful information, although it was very one-sided.

However, Groudon's emotional fluctuations in telepathy told Luther, but he still couldn't understand it.

Luther was silent for a while and said: "Perhaps human life is not long, so every time a year passes, he hopes to celebrate in some form and transform the fear of aging and death into a more positive emotion.

.”

Groudon also fell silent. This time he was no longer confused, but suddenly enlightened.

Luther's understanding of Groudon's problem was wrong from the beginning.

Groudon asked if it was worth celebrating, not because he was asking about the meaning behind the new year, but because he didn't understand why such a short time needed such a grand celebration.

Long life and short life have completely different concepts of time, which led to this misunderstanding.

"I'm sorry."

"No need to apologize. In fact, I was afraid that I would misunderstand you before I called you." Luther pursed his lips and smiled, "Thank you for the fireworks, they are very beautiful."

"You can do better, want to see?"

Luther laughed loudly: "No, the elves in the nearby sea area were so frightened by you that they all flocked to Qidao."

Luther said Happy New Year to Groudon. This time Groudon did not respond with a traditional roar, but used telepathy to imitate Luther's tone and said Happy New Year.

Just when Luther was about to interrupt his call, Groudon's voice came over.

"It's cold, do you need my help?"

His body stiffened, and Luther slowly shook his head: "No, Qidao doesn't need it."

Groudon's huge head appeared in Luther's mind. He approached Luther and took a deep look.

He did not continue the previous topic, but warned: "There is an aura approaching in this land where you belong."

"I don't like it. That smell makes me uneasy."
