Chapter 2013 The Thickness of the Crucible (8)

Chapter 2013 The Thickness of the Crucible ([-])
Darwin wrote in "Zoology": Aristotle called "man" a kind of animal that can imitate, and this tendency to imitate is not only shown in the behavior of children, but also in all the customs of the world. and fashion.

Teachers see this imitation as motivation for learning, such as when Remus Lupine puts a Boggart in a closet and asks children to chant spells after him in Defense Against the Dark Arts class, or Pomona gives Mander When pulling grass and changing pots, do a demonstration first.

The werewolf group also has its own education methods. They will demonstrate to new members how to attack humans. This is a big deal for the "wolves" who have identified themselves as humans in the past ten years, because they were bitten and turned into other species. A painful and absurd thing.

Remus chose not to eat human flesh or harm anyone, even though doing so would make him very weak.

While scouring the UK looking for work, he also researched what was key to his transformation, and he found a source in a library in Birmingham.

The Moonlight Society had only 5 core members at the beginning, including Erasmus Darwin, who was the grandfather of Charles Robert Darwin, who later wrote the theory of evolution. He was a doctor, poet, and inventor, and he was not on the table because of his fat body. Cut a half circle for his belly.Then there was Matthew Bolton, the owner of Soho when he was a high-profile factory supervisor.Then came James Watt, Bolton's worried partner, and Joshua Wedgwood, an ambitious potter.Finally there was Joseph Priestley, a stuttering but fluent clergyman and chemist who was the first to isolate the element oxygen.

At first they were just a group of like-minded friends. At that time, there was already an electric show, but people generally thought it was a kind of magic or magic, and every time someone performed it, there would always be crowds.

They do interesting experiments together, or talk about topics that are not suitable for discussion in large groups.They're like a residential community, tolerant of all weirdos and weirdos, and no one will lead an argument into a dead end.

After each party, they would get drunk and come home singing (drunk) by the moonlight, and they took the name Moonlight Club.

They were not salons; according to Monge's daughter, the old Collège de France was more like a literary society, and scientists were not allowed to enter.

Bolton, for his part, considered mineralogy a mature field for the Moonlight Society, a useful source of knowledge in metallurgy, pottery, and gasology.

Georgiana didn't pay attention at first, after all, the name Robert Peel is still very common in the UK. Later, she recalled it carefully. If she remembers correctly, the "future" UK has a prime minister named Robert Peel. He not only It was the founder of the Victorian era, and it was also the founder of Scotland Yard, but that was 30 or [-] years later.

Before that, there were no police stations and Sherlock Holmes in Britain, and the traditional police work was still in the charge of security officers, magistrates and patrolmen.Yet, as Robert Peel Sr. and William Pitt Jr. feared, policing went from bad to worse.And because the word "Police" comes from French, the British people understand the police as a force of repression. In this era, being able to fight is more important than having the mind to solve crimes, not to mention that Britain has no shortage of nosy and bad ideas. people.

In the 18th century, someone found a naked boy in the Harmeen Forest in Hannover, England. People called him Peter the "wild boy".There are many legends about wild beasts raising human children. Imitation is not only a characteristic of humans, but also animals. Young wolves will imitate adult wolves to hunt, and baby elephants will imitate adult elephants to drink water from their trunks. "Wild Child" Peter can't speak human language, as if he was abandoned before he learned to speak human language, but his sense of hearing and smell are extremely sensitive, he only peels the bark of the tree to play the sap of the tree, and others give him fruit. I can not eat it.

The 12-year-old boy, dubbed "The Monster," was captured and brought to George I's side.Unlike other beast children, he will gradually get rid of some animal nature after being adopted by humans. He can only say the words "Peter" and "King George" all his life, and he must speak the word "King George" Accompanied by the coronation bell.

A member of the Moonlight Society, Edgeworth conducted research on Peter the "Wild Boy" as an educator.While other members of the Moonlight Club searched for rocks, animal and plant specimens all over the world, he was inquiring about the beast boy.Bolton once left Birmingham with Erasmus Darwin Jr., Erasmus Darwin's son, in search of mineral specimens.

However, the conditions for forming "beast children" are very harsh. They must have human parents who have the heart to abandon them, and beasts who cannot bear to eat or hurt them and are willing to raise them.With the deforestation, it is difficult to find them in the UK.Edgeworth hopes to find "beast children" in other backward countries, and scholars from other countries also want "beast children". The shortcomings of the book Human Observation.

Compared with other members, Edgeworth didn't get much attention. After all, the children were working as child laborers in the factory, and there was no need for the school to open. Rich people would hire tutors for elementary education, so that they could receive secondary and higher education in the future. Education lays a good foundation. For example, in the story of "Jane Eyre", the governess falls in love with the father of her student.

Jane Eyre was an orphan, but she was born in a poor pastor family, she received her father's education early, and then she was sent to an orphanage, although she suffered from mental and physical devastation, but to be able to read is to change her It is an opportunity of fate, otherwise she will probably work in the spinning mill like Fantine in "Les Miserables".

One evening, Jane Eyre went out for a walk, and met the host who had just returned from abroad. This was the first time they met. Later, she found that he was a melancholy and moody person. The whole house was gloomy and empty, and sometimes he could hear A creepy laugh.

One day, Jane Eyre was awakened by the strange laughter of the audience, and found that the room of the hero Rochester was on fire. Jane Eyre woke him up and helped him put out the fire.

Later, she not only extinguished the physical fire, but also extinguished the love fire in the heart of this man who had been widowed for 15 years.Rochester has a wife, but she is crazy. Mrs. Rochester still occupies the status of a legal wife. Jane Eyre committed bigamy if she married him. The night of misery and rain left Thornfield Manor.She ate, slept and begged along the way, and was finally taken in by a priest.

If Georgiana is a decent woman, she should leave, even if she is begging on the street like Jane Eyre, instead of occupying the place that Josephine should have occupied in the name of world peace.

This trip was supposed to restore the relationship between Josephine and Bonaparte, but women understand women's thoughts best. When seeing that the position of the hostess is vacant, even if the hostess is not a rich bachelor, some people still think about it. to occupy that position.

Alexander Fordyce, often mentioned in the correspondence of the Lunar Society, was a Scottish banker who rose to stardom after the Peace of Paris, when he saw that American independence would succeed and speculated in large quantities of Indian stock, he married the daughter of a Scotch earl, and also won a seat in the House of Commons at Roehampton.

He likes to bluff, and later, when he went bankrupt, he returned home happily, and said to everyone, "Chicken's head, raven's claws, if I don't succeed, I will succeed, I...I...success, bring champagne , let's go to Burgundy, I am a man, Alexander!"

No one could understand what he was saying, but Fordyce was not scolded but generally sympathized, yet his bankruptcy led to the collapse of almost all private banks in Scotland.

The book Remus read didn't detail exactly what happened, he just recounted what it said.

Speculation needs a time bonus, and if you waste time on reading, you will lose this bonus, so it doesn't matter how much you read for speculators...

"What are you thinking? So serious?"

Said her little French lover with a hippie smile.

Georgiana looked at the sea outside the window. This damned room with a blocked chimney was very cold, but the two of them listened to the sound of the waves and did something, not only did they not feel cold, the sea under the moonlight brought a different kind of romance, but By this time the sky had begun to turn blue.

She remembered that day in the Louvre, she heard Josephine playing the moonlight, but could Josephine play the piano?
You shouldn't feel complacent, how he betrayed his original wife today, one day he will betray you like this, how can you do this to the person who took care of you when you were sick?

"In Japanese legends, there is a strange bird called Guhuo Bird, which takes away human children, but it does not eat them, but raises them." She looked into his eyes and said, "Do you believe in legends?" Leon?"

"Not all legends are true." He said lightly. "Do you believe I can eat children?"

"You don't necessarily, but other people are different. Do you think the children raised by Gu Huo Niao look like people or like birds?"

He didn't speak.

"Would they imitate the flight of a bird?" she asked again.

"They don't have the wings of Icarus, and they'll fall to their death if they try to fly."

"I think this is why the guhuo bird always hugs other people's children. It raises human children, but doesn't tell them that they can't fly, and the human children blindly imitate the guhuo bird and fall to their deaths. Not only does it not Regret and mourn, but went to hug the next child, so it has another name, ghost bird." She said softly, "But when it raises abandoned children, people call it Xiahuo bird, do you think it is a good bird? birds?"

He didn't answer her question, but bowed his head and kissed her.

In fact, she still has a question: Do you believe in magic?
But it's a pity that she can't speak at the moment, and then she doesn't have enough rational thinking about how to speak.

In fact, living by the sea, listening to the sound of waves and seagulls, is not so bad.She doesn't resist going to Elba, but is he willing to let go of his power?

Even if it is magic, there is no way to do this, maybe by then, it is time for her to wake up from her spring dream.
