Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1831 The Witch Association ([-])
The wish mentioned in Zhu Youshu usually refers to the caster, especially the wizard, while Yu is the reason for seeing a doctor.In ancient China, this skill was once widely circulated, and it was mostly taught orally by masters and apprentices.Later, as the times changed, Zhu Youshu disappeared from the official level, but the folks may have reservations.

Zhu Youshu is often associated with witchcraft. Unlike the common people in the West, the common people in the East are not only not afraid of witchcraft, but also feel very happy when they see "capable people". The place of the shrine” provided a breeding ground.

During Wu Zetian's period, there was a minister named Di Renjie, who was said to have destroyed more than 1700 obscene temples in the south of the Yangtze River, and he was the imperial official who destroyed the most obscene temples in history.

These ancestral halls enshrine everything, including dragon kings, river gods, mountain gods, and historical figures such as King Xiangyu of Chu, King Fuchai of Wu, Lord Chunshen, etc.Often they will use witches to deceive and confuse ignorant villagers. Not only will they make money, but they will also be easily used by people with ulterior motives to cause chaos. Even if there are no European priests, the imperial court will prohibit them.

However, it is difficult to prohibit such things as Tudigong and Chenghuang. Temple fairs are often held in Chenghuang Temple, and there are also the ancestral halls of Xia Yu, Wu Taibo, Ji Zha, and Wu Yuan.The sacrifices in the Confucian "Book of Rites" are indeed not as good as the Yin-Yang School, where you can experience supernatural phenomena, or Christianity, where you pray to God to save yourself through devout offerings.

If there is no good weather after offering sacrifices to heaven, the Chinese people will not fall to the ground and resign themselves to fate, but try their best to save themselves, such as repairing water conservancy facilities, and Dayu came to control the water three times without entering the house.

The believers of the church encountered the Black Death, thinking that they were devout to God or that they would be invulnerable to all poisons if they used holy water.

Not every European city’s epidemic prevention is so bad. Milan has done a good job of isolation, and the Black Death did not spread as wildly in Milan as in other areas.

At this time, whether it is the secular nobles or the monks of the church, what they should do is not to gather people together and hold the bones of the saints for a parade, but to let them stay at home and pray like the women in Venice. Quarantined.

Some people begin to doubt faith when it cannot keep them safe.Although the sacrificial ceremony is only a superficial effort, religious fanaticism is also not advisable, not to mention that it also involves the issue of "monarch power granted by heaven". The emperors in the East call themselves the Son of Heaven. When offering sacrifices to heaven, the five emperors sacrifice together. The effect of depersonalization, but European priests feel that the five emperors should be sacrificed separately, which is what they did in the West. Behind the shrine is either the Virgin or the cross.

Because of the "divine right of kings", European kings all need to be crowned by the pope, and they can just create an immediate boss for themselves, and the church has the final say on whether his status is legal or not.

Later, as the theocracy weakened, no one believed what they said, and the political system was changed to a liberal democracy, where the people elected leaders and voted.

At this time, the common people have an illusion that they are leaders chosen from among the people. In fact, those politicians who stand in front of the stage for them to choose are indeed limited. According to the rule of law, only two consecutive terms can be served for a total of 8 years, while members of the Senate can serve for 6 years and members of the House of Representatives for 2 years.

If anyone has nothing to do and sorts out the list of senators, he will find a surprising result. If the Americans in the early days of the founding were still trying to defeat the monarchy, now they don't even bother to pretend.Continuity is very important in any organization, and if senators start and end their terms at the same time, it's hard for incoming senators to know how to operate and function.

At the beginning, state legislators elected senators. Since 1913, senators have been directly elected by the citizens who live in them. Once a senator is elected, he or she can serve for a full six years, and then needs to run for election again.

However, some senators will resign, die or be expelled from the Senate before the end of their terms. Whenever this happens, special elections will be held to find new senators representing the state. His widow could replace him for the remainder of his six-year term as a senator.

No one would say that U.S. senators are hereditary. It’s just that if this generation becomes a senator, the next generation will be elected. So how many places are allocated by "education equality", and just look at how many of those politicians did not graduate from prestigious schools?
As Seattle's Chief Duwamish said, everything is connected.

Expanding the amount of reading is not just limited to textbooks, it will expand your horizons and knowledge.

Movies always show Americans saving the world, as if America is the last hope of mankind.

A new proverb is derived from heaven knows, earth knows, you know and I know, if you want others to not know, you must do nothing yourself.

With the surveillance of the dark sky, he will think twice before doing bad things.Although there are many people who are lucky, they are not like some people. If you do something bad, you will not go to hell if you sincerely repent. You can even buy an atonement roll to offset your sins.

These people are very good at forgiving themselves. After the Salem witch incident, Massachusetts held a big fast. It seems that this matter has passed. As for the women who died unjustly, no one gave them justice. The only remedy they did was to perfect the trial. .

Standing in New York, the Statue of Liberty holds a book in addition to holding a torch high, which is usually thought to be a code of law.In fact, except for Louisiana, the statutory law is used, and the other states use the unwritten law. The Statue of Liberty is actually holding the Declaration of Independence.

Not only in Swan Island, but also in the Paris Museum of Crafts, there is a replica of this statue of the goddess. She is only 2.3 meters high. If it is a magician, it is not difficult to make her disappear, but let the Statue of Liberty on the Hudson River Like disappearing is not easy.

The magician who performed this show was so amazing that people thought it was illusion, magic, and people racked their brains to solve this riddle.

Maybe its principle is very simple, just like Columbus took an egg and asked everyone how to stand it up. When no one knew how to answer, he broke the egg so that the egg stood on the table. .

But before he did that, everyone thought his success was a fluke, and anyone could do it by sailing on a boat.

The earth is flat, so that people can stand on it. If it is round, how can people on the other side of the earth ensure that they will not fall?

This logical and self-consistent explanation subverts the "common sense" that the earth is round, which was obtained by Pythagoras in ancient Greece through aesthetics.

Some gunpowder is used to make fireworks, while others are used to make shells. During the First World War, the Germans designed a super cannon "Paris Cannon" and installed it on the train in order to bombard Paris from a long distance. The shooting distance is too far, and the Germans have to add the deflection of the earth when calculating the trajectory, and that is what Foucault's pendulum has verified.

Right now in the room where Severus was, there was a World War I biplane overhead, the Statue of Liberty below it, and the Foucault pendulum behind him.

After Foucault verified his theory, many universities and museums have installed Foucault's pendulum, even the polar region has one, but the earliest Foucault's pendulum, which he "performed" in the Pantheon, was placed in the Paris Museum of Arts and Crafts inside.

The Pantheon was originally built by Louis XV for the patron saint of Paris, Genevieve, who he believed was responsible for his recovery from a serious illness.The Paris Craft Museum was once a monastery, far less ornate than the Pantheon, but has a Gothic slenderness.

What feels eerie in Gothic is actually a flame of representation that only a passionate person can understand.

This place used to be a school, which brought together many young people, and trained many people whose names were left on the Eiffel Tower.

What is the difference between a warehouse and a museum?

There are many imaginative machines in this museum, but few people come, at least much less than the people of the Pantheon.

Since that place is regarded as a holy place, don't use ghosts and gods to desecrate it, and this industrial style looks very British. All in all, Severus is very satisfied with this place.

While he was visiting, Zhang Tao distributed 26 English letters around the round marble, and also lit candles and incense, and the elves in the topaz were flying around.

With them, the temperature has dropped significantly, which is also one of the conditions required for the spirit seance ceremony. Whenever there is something heavy in the air, it will always become colder.

The so-called spiritualism is also called "calling the soul". The family members cry the name of the deceased on the grave of the deceased.

A more elegant way of saying it is "the soul returns", which is what Qu Yuan wrote in Chu Ci.

As for whose name to call, it was up to Severus himself to decide, was it his mother Irene, his first girlfriend Lily, or his daughter Lily who was not born in time?

This problem is a headache for him. Anyway, this accident is because Pomona suspects that he is still thinking about his first love, and Zhang Taobu will have nothing to do with him after the battle.

In short, going to the theater, no matter how messy it is, it is someone else's territory.

Jia Sheng was more incoherent when the propaganda room sought talents to visit the ministers.

Poor Ye Banxu's front seat does not ask the common people or ghosts.

This poem was written by Li Shangyin. In addition to the splendid palaces of the Tang Dynasty, there are also wonderful people who continue to appear.

At that time, the Li family worshiped Taoist Li Er as their ancestor, and Buddhism also declined. Xuanzang's feat of seeking scriptures from the west restored the status of Buddhism, but what Li Shimin wanted most was his "Da Tang Western Regions", this book is Xuan Zang. Zang dictated it, and Bianji wrote it by hand.

In fact, the private meeting with the princess does not need to be executed, even if the son-in-law is Fang Xuanling's son.

But Bian Ji knew too many secrets that a monk should not know.

It’s rare to be confused. It’s painful to always be awake and alive. The quality of sleep of the elderly is not good, and they are prone to dreaminess.

How difficult it is to get a good night's sleep.
