City Primordial Witch King

Chapter 20 Professor Yao

Yao Xinyu looked at the students who jumped up and shouted "I understand" with a smile, but she was not angry at all.

Although I don't know what he understands, but watching the students realize their epiphanies in his own classroom is a kind of supreme achievement as a preacher!Moreover, he can empathize with the joy of enlightenment, so he is happy for the students from the bottom of his heart.

After Wei Xiao's excitement gradually passed, Yao Xinyu said to him earnestly: "Student Wei, although your epiphany is very happy, but you also disrupted the classroom discipline. Let’s share what you have learned.”

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and everyone in the class looked over. Wei Xiao smiled shyly, bowed slightly to the professor, and said:

"I came up with this method after listening to the example you said, Professor, expressing the same meaning from all aspects."

"When we study this "History of Ancient Civilizations", we can also study the development of civilization in ancient times from many aspects such as relics, cultural heritage, fossils, and even myths. In this way, we are not limited to history, but also have more other interdisciplinary subjects.”

"For example, in my previous question about the history of ancient civilizations, we can study the situation at that time from the perspective of mythology, archaeological remains, and even the evolution of living habits."

Wei Xiao finished speaking in one breath, bowed again to thank Professor Yao, and then sat down.

Yao Xinyu nodded slightly, put his hands on the podium, and concluded:
"That's right. We who do research and learning need complex knowledge. Although this course is a history course, it still contains more and more interesting knowledge, waiting for us to explore. My original intention of opening this course is to study with you and explore the development and evolution of this ancient civilization together.”

After summing up, he folded his hands, walked off the podium gently, came to Wei Xiao's seat, looked at Wei Xiao and said.

"Since Wei's understanding was so good just now, can you tell everyone why you chose this course in the first place? In this course, what do you most hope to learn or what do you want to gain?"

Wei Xiao happily replied: "What I want to know most is why the witches who appeared suddenly in ancient times disappeared, and in modern times, a large number of witches who pretend to be ghosts and fool the people suddenly appear?"

Of course, this should be the question he wants to know the most, not the original idea. When he chose this course, he had the same thoughts in his heart as most of his classmates, with a curiosity-seeking mentality.Ever since he inexplicably obtained the inheritance of the Wu Clan, and after carefully reading the records about the Wu Clan in the "Witch Code", his doubts have grown stronger.

According to the shamanism, the shamans appeared to protect the human race, so where did the shamans come from?

The battle between the witches and the witches ended with the near extinction of the clan. The last great witch passed away after leaving the witchcraft, but what about the monsters?In the mythology of later generations, the demons are just one or two stragglers, and they have never even appeared in an organization. Where did the demon clan go?
How did the witch in a small village in the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains learn the art of witchcraft?Why is the middle part missing in the inheritance of shamanism?

These are questions that Wei Xiao has been puzzling over.

Yao Xinyu was surprised and said, "Oh? It seems that classmate Wei has done in-depth research on witches in ancient times?"

Wei Xiao nodded and continued to talk:

"In ancient times, human beings were still in the period of ignorance. The Suiren clan drilled wood to make fire, the Yanzi clan knotted ropes, the Youchao clan built houses, Cangjie created characters, and Shennong clan tasted herbs. Under their leadership, I broke through the ignorance and entered the social era. But every time I study ancient history, I always wonder why the group of witches disappeared after the Zhou Dynasty, and they suddenly appeared again in modern times. come out?"

Yao Xinyu looked at the students in front of her in surprise, feeling shocked in her heart.Three months ago, an unidentified relic was discovered in Shiwan Dashan. As a folklore expert and a professor of history, he was invited to the scene. The relic was confirmed to be a relic of the ancient times after archaeological and identification by various experts, and it was the only one discovered by humans in the world. The remains of the ancient witch clan.

The characters and symbols in it are strange and unheard of, the content on the murals is bloodthirsty and cruel, and the various sacrificial scenes are chilling. It is precisely based on the contents of the murals that experts have identified it as the remains of the ancient witch clan.

After more than two months of research, everyone agrees that the appearance of this ruin can solve the mystery of the sudden disappearance of the ancient Wu tribe, and some experts believe that the reason for the disappearance of the Wu tribe is in this ruin.It is a pity that after another month, except for a little bit of information deciphered at the beginning, there was no progress in the subsequent research, and more than a month was wasted. This is also the reason why Yao Xinyu did not start the class for a long time.

Unexpectedly, in the classroom of the school, I would meet a student who has done research on the group of "witches"!
He couldn't answer the students' questions, and even experts in the entire field of history couldn't answer them.After the fall of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Central Plains entered the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the witches disappeared. In the following thousands of years, Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism shined brightly, but the witches who also worshiped gods and mysterious colors never appeared again. This group Already extinct?
Why do wizards who have been extinct for thousands of years suddenly appear again?
Many modern studies believe that witches evolved from Taoism, and even thought it was a branch of Taoism, but Yao Xinyu knows that these are all made up, and no one can know the real "truth"!
"I'm very responsible to tell you that I can't answer this question!" Yao Xinyu said to Wei with a serious smile: "But we can discuss and study together, and if you are interested in this, we can communicate more in the future. "

"Thank you, Professor Yao!" Wei Xiao was overjoyed. With the favor of Professor Yao Xinyu, it will be easier to decipher the garbled codes in the "Witch Code" in the future!

After the questioning with Wei Xiao, Professor Yao raised a few more topics for students to exchange and discuss with each other. He also guided from the side, making the classroom atmosphere extremely active for a while.The students are equally enthusiastic. If you want to know anything, you can ask any questions you care about. After a class, everyone has gained a lot.

Time passed, the bell rang for the end of get out of class, and the three consecutive periods of big class finally came to an end. Wei Xiao packed up his things and prepared to go back to the dormitory.

Yao Xinyu looked at the students passing by, and suddenly beckoned to Wei Xiao.

"Student Wei Xiao, come here!"

"Here are some research materials about ancient wizards. Take it and read it when you have time." Yao Xinyu said, and handed over a USB flash drive.

At this moment, he knew exactly what he was doing. The information that was supposed to be a confidential document was gently delivered to a student, but a voice in his heart told him that the student in front of him was likely to be the The key to archaeology!
Wei Xiao took the materials in a daze, then Professor Yao patted him on the shoulder with a smile, gave him an encouraging look, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.

"Brother Xiao, let's go! Back to the dormitory!"

When the voice of shouting came, Wei Xiao had no choice but to put away his doubts, and went back with his roommates.
