On the train, Qiu Zhang and Hermione held each other's hands and talked about topics between close friends, while Wu Si was holding a Taoist scripture and reading it attentively. After chatting for a while, Hermione turned her attention to Wu Si:"Hey, Wu Si, is there any difference between Eastern magic and Western magic?"

Wu Si raised his head and glanced at Qiu Zhang, but the little girl spread her hands.

Wu Si replied helplessly:"The correct name for the East is actually Taoism, but you can understand it as magic. After all, there is actually no difference between the two in essence." Hermione read the word"Taoism" awkwardly:"Okay, it's Taoism, it's really a difficult name. So what's the difference with magic?"

Obviously, the studious Hermione was still very curious about this.

Wu Si closed the Taoist scripture, thought about it, and said:"If there is an obvious difference, it should be that magic is to directly achieve a specific effect, while Taoism is to achieve a certain effect with unique abilities." In Hermione's ears, Wu Si's explanation is actually two kinds of cause and effect inverted. In Western thinking, it is still an equal sign, so there is no difference.

"Um... can you be more specific?"One, one, six, zero, six, zero" Your explanation seems to be no different between the two. Zhang, do you understand what Wu Si meant?"

Qiu Zhang opened her mouth, but didn't know how to answer.

She actually understood what Wu Si meant, but because she was too young and didn't have enough experience, she couldn't explain the difference in a way that Hermione could understand.

Wu Si made an analogy:"There is a concept called 'money' in the world, but money itself is different in different regions. You can understand this, right?"

Hermione nodded:"Wizards' Galleons, British pounds, European euros, and American dollars are all money, but they are not exactly the same. I can understand this."

Wu Si continued:"Magic is like these different kinds of money. When you need to pay with Galleons, there are magic Galleons. When you need pounds, there are magic pounds. When you need euros, there are magic pounds. The existence of magic is to solve these specific things. For example, every evil curse has a corresponding counter-curse. Only by using the right counter-curse can you remove the damage caused by the evil curse."

Hermione agreed:"Many first-year wizards don't know this, Wu Si, you also know this, it's amazing."

Wu Si's mouth twitched. Hermione said that knowing this was amazing, didn't it mean that she was also amazing?

Ignoring Hermione's self-praise, Wu Si continued:"But Taoism is different. Taoism is the concept of money itself. Money is used for buying and selling, and it is used to anchor the value of goods. So when money is needed, Taoism creates goods and then realizes the function of money, rather than just being limited to various different kinds of money."

"Therefore, Taoism only has corresponding rules, and no one-to-one counter-spells. Within these rules, there can be countless corresponding methods."

"And this is the difference between Taoism and magic."

Wusi explained so, Hermione naturally understood, Qiu Zhang looked at Wu Si with some admiration, he didn't expect that this problem could be explained in this way, it was amazing.

After Hermione understood, she had a new question:"But why are there such different results? According to what you said, Wu Si, Taoism and magic are essentially the same, but these two results are completely different, this is incredible!" Wu Si sighed in his heart, Hermione's ability to learn is too difficult, and he is only in the first grade, and he is thinking about such a deep problem?

Originally, Wu Si planned not to explain Hermione's problem. After all, when one problem is solved, more problems will come one after another, and for him, the discussion with Hermione is completely useless to him, so naturally he doesn't want to continue the discussion in this regard.

However, before the perfunctory words came out, a tall figure appeared at the door of the box:"If possible, can I sit in? I am also curious about how the difference in magic between the East and the West was formed."

The three looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall, handsome boy in Hufflepuff uniform leaning against the door frame.

Seeing the three people looking at him, the boy stood up straight, smiled gently and introduced himself:"Hello, I'm Cedric Diggory, a third-year Hufflepuff. I'm the Hufflepuff Seeker."

At the end of his speech, Cedric turned his gaze towards Qiu Zhang, making Qiu Zhang's face turn red.

Wu Si's eyes twitched wildly. He remembered that Qiu Zhang seemed to become the Ravenclaw seeker in the Quidditch game after he was in the second grade. In other words, because they had met a few times on the Quidditch field, this guy had a crush on Qiu Zhang?

And looking at Qiu Zhang's expression, it was obvious that she had no intention of refusing. After all, Cedric was a recognized handsome guy, and a seeker at that. He was very popular.

Wu Si had no choice but to stretch out his hand to indicate that Cedric was sitting next to him. He didn't know if he was putting himself in the position of Qiu Zhang's elder. At this moment, Wu Si was looking at this kid with a gentle smile and felt unhappy.

"If you want to listen, I will tell you the reason."

Seeing that the three of them were all listening attentively, Wu Si cleared his throat and said,"The difference between Taoism and magic is because there is a fundamental gap between Eastern and Western cultures."

"In the eyes of Westerners, the East is conservative, adheres to conventions, backward, mysterious, etc., but in the eyes of Easterners, Westerners are barbaric, too indulgent, greedy, etc."

Hearing Wu Si's words about the difference between the two sides in their respective eyes, the expressions on the faces of the three little guys became a little stiff.

Wu Si smiled and said:"The reason for this difference is the pride of both sides. The Eastern heritage has almost never been cut off since ancient times. This is an ancient nation, and it has enough profound history to recognize its own pride."

"The problems brought about by such a profound history are also numerous and complex. Therefore, for a long time, the Taoism itself was born to classify these numerous and complex problems into one category. In this way, we don’t need to learn too much cumbersome knowledge, but only need to learn the corresponding rules."

"The West is different. The West has experienced countless ups and downs. The various races have never been integrated and unified, and there are many cultural differences. Therefore, in order to survive in harmony, everyone recognizes each other's culture, forming a diverse and complex situation.........."

"Therefore, everyone's problems are very different, and because they share the problems brought by this large piece of land, there are not many problems between them. Therefore, in order to achieve the fastest effect, the way to solve the problem is naturally direct, decisive and single.........."

Wu Si frankly explained his own understanding of the difference between Taoism and magic, and then concluded:"In this way, this different understanding is formed."

"If we use mathematics as an analogy, the accumulation of knowledge in the East has allowed them to create mathematical formulas. They do not need to know the answer to a question, they just need to apply the formula to solve the answer. In the West, every question has a corresponding answer, and they need to memorize the answer to each question."

"Therefore, in the eyes of Orientals, the Western way of rote memorization is very low-level, while in the eyes of Westerners, the Oriental way of using mathematical formulas is cumbersome and useless."

At this point, Wu Si stopped talking, because if he went a little deeper, the three little guys might not understand at all.

However, Wu Si's easy-to-understand explanation also made them understand why there is such a big difference between the East and the West.

Cedric glanced at Qiu Zhang, and then generously said to Wu Si:"I often hear your name in school. Now I see that you are as knowledgeable as the rumors say."

Wu Si waved his hand, his eyes flashed slightly, and he found that Cedric seemed to have something else to say!

Sure enough, Cedric's words turned the corner the next moment:"When you entered school before, we heard about your Oriental bloodline, and said that you and Zhang are relatives. I wonder if this is true?"

Qiu Zhang replied:"We do come from the same ancestor. My grandfather admits this."

Cedric looked at the two in surprise:"Your Oriental bloodline is incredible!"

2.4

Wu Si waved his hands: 2.4"Bloodline is not a problem for us at all. The main thing is that I worship her grandfather as my master. According to seniority, I am still her uncle."

Qiu Zhang puffed his face and said indignantly:"I didn't learn Taoism, I'm not your nephew, don't expect me to call you uncle! Besides, you are younger than me!"

Wu Si spread his hands, Hermione was laughing happily beside him, and Cedric showed a perverted smile when he saw Qiu Zhang being so spoiled, which made Wu Si feel goose bumps all over his body.

After arriving at school, Cedric and Qiu Zhang were already friends who could communicate in a friendly manner. As for Hermione, that was just a by-product.

Wu Si did not intend to pay attention to these issues, but just sent a letter to Zhang Taibai by owl. For the traditional Zhang Taibai, although his granddaughter was not qualified to inherit the Taoist tradition, he would never allow her to have a premature love affair.

Ah, I am really a qualified elder.

Looking at Qiu Zhang's happy farewell, Wu Si could hardly hide the smile on his face.

Hermione noticed Wu Si's smile and asked suspiciously,"Did you do something bad? He is smiling so proudly.……".
