Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1165 Louvre's Wizard (2)

Baboons are actually not native to Egypt. It is said that the Egyptians had expeditioned to the southern Nile and the "land of Ponte", most likely it is now East Africa or the Arabian Peninsula, and then the Egyptians brought this unseen magical animal to Egypt. Carry out captivity.

  They should not succeed in domesticating baboons, otherwise some people will raise baboons as pets. Cats are all domesticated, although they may think that human homes are their own territory.

Baboons are also social animals, and their territories are often left by their ancestors. Naturally, some have sufficient water resources and rich fruits, and some are lack of water and drought. Therefore, conflicts will inevitably occur for better territory.

  Baboons practice polygamy, and the family foundation is not strong. Often a few baboons hug right and left, and most male baboons can only watch them by the side.

  So those single baboons compete for dominance and mating rights whenever they have a chance, and disrupt the race.

  But in most cases they are still very restrained, because everyone is reluctant to get injuries in battle.

  There are many carnivores around the baboons, such as hyenas and cheetahs. These beasts always monitor the baboons and kill injured or sick baboons whenever they have the opportunity.

  Before the battle, the baboons will assess the risks and benefits, which allows them to stay sensible and appropriately give up some insignificant benefits to avoid fighting. For example, if you throw a peanut in front of a male baboon, it will pick it up and eat it immediately. If you throw a peanut between two male baboons of equal status, they will turn a blind eye. A peanut and a duel is not worth it.

  Minerva likes Quidditch very much. Albus is not really keen on it. He prefers the game of skittles. Unfortunately, no one plays with him. He occasionally goes to watch Quidditch games.

  What is it for boys to fight so **** Quidditch? I am afraid that only they know this. For some people, Quidditch is the peanut placed in front of two baboons, there is no need to use violence for it.

  The same women are peanuts to some people. Isn’t it stupid to fight for women?

The   king and the upper-class male nobles are the male baboons who hug the left and the right. They don't know how many single young male baboons there are at the bottom. They plan to overthrow them and replace them with their own hugs.

  Old baboons will lose their wives and concubines if they can’t beat young baboons. Not only that, they will also lose their social status. Grooming each other is Feifei's gesture of friendship. Generally, after a new baboon king is born, in order to consolidate his position, the baboon king will take the initiative to groom female and male baboons of low status.

  The baboon king just symbolically grooms other baboons, and the low-status baboons always do their best to groom the baboon king, so the baboon king’s hair is always smooth and slippery, which can be seen at a glance.

  When danger occurs, the male protects from behind, threatens and yells, and even fights back, while the female baboons and cubs will take the opportunity to escape.

  At the same time, there are levels among female baboons. Female baboons who like to communicate have a particularly high survival rate for children born and raised.

  Like humans, they have no fixed breeding season. They have wars and disputes just like humans. They also like to communicate with humans, but they are more restrained than humans. This feature makes them the beasts of wisdom worshiped by the Egyptians.

  Sun King Louis XIV is a totalitarian king. Although he likes to have fun, he enjoys it alone. When he is dead, everyone can really relax.

  The nobles didn’t do anything else, they just talked about love. Louis XIV reigned for 72 years. At the beginning, his mistresses were dancers from humble backgrounds. Later, there were some women with unfair names. The streets and alleys of Paris are everywhere talking about which beauty the king has an affair with, even if she was once the wife of a certain nobleman, who dares to move after becoming the king's woman?

  All the beautiful women feel that they have the opportunity to dress themselves up and try their best to get in front of the king, hoping that they can be fancy. The dance party is the best “social” occasion.

  The men participating in the dance are not fools, and they consciously stay away from women with other purposes. They will be ambiguous with married women, because noble women's husbands are also with other people's wives, or "social stars" like La Traviata.

  Rousseau’s favorite woman, Madame Valent, was married. The noble couples played their own roles. Marriage is just a form.

  In Maupassant's pen, duels in France in the 17th and 18th centuries became popular. The duel is for the woman above all, the deceived husband and jealous lover die because they cannot tolerate injury to their self-esteem. The second is public insults and publicity. On the contrary, the judicial duels used to resolve litigation disputes have specialized people engaged in this profession.

  People in that era often duel for a little thing, speak louder, overwhelm the other person, step on someone else's foot without saying sorry, one eye is wrong, and they can even fight for nothing.

  Duelists appear at the dating place at dawn. At this time, they can calm down. The "shame" can only be eliminated by bleeding.

  The king forbids duels, but the effect is not great.

  The philosophers of the Enlightenment period theoretically condemned the motives and reasons for refuting the duel, making people a little more rational, and making the duel lose most of its charm.

  The post-revolution duel is often called the front page headline, and the slander in the newspaper can also make the parties angry and cause a duel.

  Later, the duel became a propaganda gimmick, and the newspapers were full of noise. No one was killed or injured on the court. The masses became disinterested. Even the pushy people were unwilling to fight. Duel was considered illegal.

  The ban on duels promoted by the British Ministry of Magic, Pomona, does not like it very much, and the anti-werewolf law does not like it even more.

  She also didn’t like to patronize French aristocrats who talked about love, and Rohart, a fool, was enough.

  So she has no interest in the ornate Egyptian jewelry, especially after seeing the baboon sculpture, she wants to see the Egyptians’ understanding of life, death and soul.

  It is a pity that she can't understand the hieroglyphs of the Egyptians, and she can't understand the steles on display in the Louvre.

  She was in a mood right now, so angry, it felt like a thief entered the treasure house but returned empty-handed.

  Except for the meditation basin, they did not encounter any obvious treasures in the Egyptian Pavilion that they could recognize at a glance. After all, such opportunities were still rare. Just like those complete tombs of ancient Egyptian nobles who escaped the treasure hunt by tomb robbers, foreign explorers and local officials.

  Naturally, there is no Scorpion King bracelet.

  It was no longer meaningful to stay in the Egyptian Pavilion, so the two illiterate left the Syrian Pavilion.

  Severus' expression was still calm, but Pomona remembered the experience of being regarded as eating and not working in Tibet more than 20 years ago.

  Maybe time will make us forget love and hate, but memories of embarrassment and shame will always pop out from time to time, allowing the owner of the memory to relive the feeling of that moment.

  "I want to learn pictographs..."

   "You haven't learned Greek well." Severus interrupted her rhetoric coldly.

  She grabbed Severus by the arm and wailed unwillingly.

  But who told her to be uneducated.

  Even if I missed it, I had to recognize it.
