Chapter 794 Kill the Lamp God
"Please, I am the genie, I am here to make your wish come true, not for you to make mine come true..."

Before the blue giant finished speaking, Martin interrupted him: "Jar God."

The jar god looked down at the jar where he was hiding, raised his eyebrows, and then insisted: "The lamp god."

Martin: "Jug God."

Genie: "Genie!"

Martin: "Jug God."

Genie: "Genie!"

"Genius!" Akemi Miyano exclaimed. Only then did she realize the identity of the blue giant. It turned out to be the genie from "Aladdin and the Magic Lamp".

"Jar God!" the Lamp God called out subconsciously.

"Oh, by Allah!" The genie held his head up. "I swear this was a magic lamp before I fell asleep last time. Why is it a jar now? Where is the lamp? Where is my oil lamp?"

The genie turned around and put his head into the jar to look for the oil lamp, but his huge upper body was still curled up outside, looking a little indecent.

Ten seconds later, the genie couldn't find the magic lamp, so he came out again: "Forget it, this jar is a bit earthy, but the space inside is much larger than the previous lamp."

Although the genie is a powerful spirit, he is actually imprisoned in the palm-sized magic lamp, without any freedom. If no one makes a wish, he will have to spend a long time alone. Today, the magic lamp has become a clay jar, and the space is dozens of times larger than the magic lamp.

"Well, never, ever." The genie adjusted the scarf on his head and said seriously, "Young man, I am the genie. I can fulfill your three wishes. Of course... well, there are some restrictions."

"First, you can't make greedy wishes like 'three more wishes'; second, the content of the wish can't directly cause someone's death; third, you can't make a person fall in love with another person; fourth, you can't resurrect the dead."

"Fifth," Martin continued, "Can't you wish for something that the genie can't do?"

"..." The expression of the genie was a little complicated, as if he wanted to say that there was nothing he couldn't do, but he was afraid that Martin would really give him a difficult problem.

Miyano Akemi came over and asked, "Are there so many restrictions on making wishes?"

"In fact, the earliest version of 'One Thousand and One Nights' did not have these restrictions, including the three wishes." Martin recalled: "In the original story, the genie would obey the wishes of the person who got the genie lamp, and the rest was a cool fairy tale where the person could do whatever he wanted and live a happy life."

A fairy tale lacking logic may have been enough to lull children to sleep a thousand years ago, but a story without twists and turns is not enough to satisfy readers of later generations, so some other elements need to be added. As a result, many elements were added to the story during its translation and circulation in Britain, France, and Germany, and after Disney's magical changes, it finally became the three wishes version that people are familiar with today.

There is another setting, the magic carpet, which was also added by later generations during the translation process.

"By the way, in the setting of One Thousand and One Nights, this story still takes place in China, and the protagonist Aladdin and the genie are both Chinese." Martin said while searching on his phone, "But for most Arabs at that time, distant China was like a legend similar to Atlantis, so the names were still in Arabic, and they kept saying 'May Allah bless you.'"

"Aladdin is a combination of the two words 'faith' and 'honor' in Arabic. If it is translated into Chinese faithfully and elegantly..." Martin thought for a moment: "Chongzhen?"

"Ahem!" The Genie coughed again, reminding them to pay attention to themselves: "Young man, have you thought about what wish you want?"

"Emm..." Martin thought about it seriously, and even took out a piece of paper to check the calculation, and then said: "Okay, I'll make a wish, you listen carefully."

The genie was very excited. Although he had great power, he could not use it for himself. Although he was making wedding clothes for others when he fulfilled people's wishes, it was at least less boring than the past. "My first wish is: to do the opposite of my second wish."

The genie's expression froze, and he began to wonder about the meaning of this wish.

"My second wish is: Don't fulfill my third wish."

The genie knitted his brows together, lowered his head and began to analyze the logic by counting on his fingers. Since the first wish requires the reversal of the second wish, the meaning of the second wish is that the third wish must be fulfilled. Could it be that the third wish is difficult to fulfill?

"My third wish is: Ignore my first wish."

Eh, that's it? Just one less wish, isn't that a good thing? The genie was confused, and then he sorted out what to do: his first wish was to reverse the second wish, now ignoring the first wish, then the second wish would not be reversed; the second wish was not to fulfill the third wish, the third wish was to ignore the first wish, which meant that I couldn't ignore the first wish, the first wish... Eh? Eh? Eh heh heh heh?
The genie was sorting out the logic while counting on his fingers, but soon his fingers were not enough, and he didn't even have toes. In the end, the genie became more and more confused and tied himself into a knot.

"This..." Miyano Akemi blinked: "What is this?"

Huihara Ai spoke up: "Creating a paradox, a very common paradox of negation in the field of mathematical philosophy, for example, 'What I said is a lie' If it is a lie, it becomes true, and if it is true, it becomes a lie."

"What is Martin trying to do..." Miyano Akemi twitched her lips.

"Look at the genie tying a knot." Martin gestured to the genie and said, "Can you guys make a few wishes too?"

"Hmm... such a wish that comes for nothing will definitely not be saved. And it is also forbidden to kill or revive someone." Miyano Akemi thought about it, then shook her head: "There is nothing to wish for."

Huiyuan Ai looked at the lamp god and said, "Can he help me advance my research?"

"It's called making a wish, but it actually means asking the djinn to do three things for you, so it can't do things like wishing for world peace. Things like finding gold and silver treasures can be done with its magic power... As for advancing research... I'm pessimistic."

Huiyuan Ai looked carefully at the still knotted lamp spirit: "His intelligence level really can't do it."

At this time, the genie finally reacted and finally freed himself: "Hey! But how or whether these three wishes are fulfilled will not affect anyone or anything!"

The three wishes Martin made did not involve any actual changes.

"Congratulations on finding Hua Dian, a blind student." Martin applauded.

"Oh, that won't do." The genie was a little distressed: "If I don't do anything, it can't be considered as fulfilling your wish."

"Okay." Martin made another wish: "My first wish is that you change your name from the God of the Lamp to the God of the Jar."

Can God: "...Okay."

"The second wish is for a hearty breakfast. Because of your cool figure, our two chefs came to see you."

This was finally a normal wish for the Jar God. He immediately turned into a tornado and covered the dining table. When it dissipated, a very sumptuous meal appeared on the table... but it was obviously all Middle Eastern style food.

"The third wish is that you please move out of the way. You are crushing my magic carpet brother."
