Lu Mingfei, who had read Dragon Clan before Dragon Slaying

Chapter 114 The Debate Between Man and Dragon

The day before was still a torrential rain like a dark night, and the rain fell violently, turning the whole world upside down; today the weather in Chicago suddenly turned sunny again, and the temperature was so high that people wanted to take off their clothes and jump into the Chicago River to cool off the heat.

It seems that with the arrival of the girl named "Xia Mi", the lingering and rainy spring has been rushed away, and suddenly it is the summer solstice.

In the suite of the Hyatt Rency Chicago Hotel, the large-screen LCD TV is playing a popular American cartoon movie "Up", the 78-year-old Karl and the eight-year-old Russell are holding the flying house on the journey Fighting each other, American humor filled the whole room as if it was the background music of the world at this time.

Lu Mingfei was cleaning his view of the world, the sunlight poured in through the window, and was cut into two golden squares by the white blade.

Chu Zihang was flipping through a cowhide book, which was a reference book for "Level [-] of Alchemy Chemistry" and an ancient book annotating "Cuiyulu".

The Cuiyulu is an ancient book from 1900 BC, inscribed on emerald tablets, found in a secret chamber under a pyramid.It is regarded as the origin book of alchemy. The author claims to be the trinity God Hermes in Egyptian mythology. There are only [-] sentences in total, but it contains all the truths of alchemy.

The plump Winnie the Pooh balloon was on the ceiling, and the end of the long white rope was still tied to Chu Zihang's wrist. I don't know if he forgot to take it or didn't want to take it off.

This five-star hotel owned by Hyatt stands on the banks of the Chicago River. When you open the window, you can see a cruise ship with white sails slowly passing by in the river. The enthusiastic black and fat tour guide on the bow is talking with a group of foreigners Visitors render the golden days of the city's founding.

"Senior brother, I'm sorry I lied to you. Actually, I secretly brought some money with me." Lu Mingfei glanced in the direction of the bathroom like a cat, and said to Chu Zihang in a low voice, "I can't open a five-star hotel." Let’s start, it’s okay to live in a homestay or something, or if I move out, you will give admission counseling to junior sisters alone?”

The sound of running water in the bathroom was like the most pleasant sound of clear springs in the world, and Xia Mi was taking a bath in the bathroom.

"Lu Mingfei." Chu Zihang also said in a low voice. When he and this junior were together, he basically had something to say and seldom called Lu Mingfei by his name. Whenever he called out these three words, it meant Watch his next words be very serious.

"From the control room, when you proposed to provide admission counseling for freshmen, something was wrong. You picked me up by name, asked strange questions along the way, secretly cut off the train tracks so that we could not go back to the college, and proposed to open a room by yourself. What do you want? What are you doing?" Chu Zihang asked seriously.

I want you to marry a female dragon?And let you lure this female dragon into our camp to act as a free powerful thug... Lu Mingfei has such a calculation in his heart, but it is enough to enjoy these words in his head, of course he can't say this.

"I think..." Lu Mingfei was making up nonsense quickly, the sound of water stopped abruptly, and Xia Mi finished washing, just in time to save his life, so there is no need to make up excuses to deal with senior brother.

"Huh? Are you guys discussing my admission counseling?" Xia Mi came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, with wet drops hanging around his neck, like dewdrops on jade vines.

"Our conversation...you heard everything?" Lu Mingfei looked at Xia Mi who was wiping his long hair, feeling terrified.

"It's not all of it, I heard it all." Xia Mi picked out his ears, "I forgot to tell you, my hearing is actually quite good."

Oh... what a ghost!Scared people to death, okay?
This girl still has this skill?Fortunately, I didn't choose to confess to my senior brother just now, otherwise what they are facing now is not a cute girl like a lotus, but a female dragon who is angry from embarrassment!Lu Mingfei was terrified.

"Hey, brother, haven't you taken off the balloon yet? It seems that you really like Winnie the Pooh." Xia Mi looked at the intact white rope on Chu Zihang's wrist, covered his mouth and chuckled.

However, Chu Zihang turned a deaf ear to Xia Mi's ridicule. He just held the translation of "Cuiyulu" and muttered: "Ascension from the earth, and descending from the sky, gain the power above and below. In this way, you can gain the glory of the world, Stay away from darkness and obscurity."

This is Newton's translation of "Jade Records". The scientist himself is also a well-known magician, and he also admires alchemy and theology. In the Middle Ages, theology and science were not so clearly distinguished, and alchemy can be regarded as a category of science. branch.

Lu Mingfei glanced at Xia Mi who was wearing a bathrobe. His appearance was as beautiful as a flower and his skin was as creamy as fat. His shoulders were so smooth and tender that they seemed to slide off no matter what he put on them. On the other hand, Chu Zihang was so delicate and lovely. Ren's junior sister's ridicule fell on deaf ears, and she kept on reading, just like an old monk with a mind like calm water and unwavering meditation!

Perhaps even Chu Zihang himself didn't realize that his hand, which was wrapped around a rope and hung a balloon, was trembling slightly behind the book.

"I've also read this passage, and some people say it can be translated as 'the One rises from the earth to the sky, and then falls to the ground again, thus absorbing the power of the upper and lower realms, so that you will have the glory of the whole world and stay away from ignorance. '" Xia Mi rubbed his hair, and naturally continued Chu Zihang's discussion, "The key to understanding this sentence is what the 'Tai Yi' refers to."

Chu Zihang just raised his head and glanced at Xia Mi. He originally thought that this junior sister was a nonchalant scumbag like Finger, but he didn't expect that under her lively and playful appearance, there was such a rich connotation. In fact, deep down in his heart was a little...surprised?
"It can be understood as the materials used in alchemy, that is, metals or other substances burned by flames." Chu Zihang continued to stare at the ancient books and said calmly.

"It can also be understood as 'spirit'." Xia Mi said.

"Spirit says there hasn't been much progress since 1972."

"But last year, Spiritualism published a new paper."

Lu Mingfei listened to the two people's discussion on "Jade Records" in full swing, he silently poured himself a glass of boiling water, and did not choose to get into the topic.

Senior Brother, Senior Brother, I tried my best to create an environment for you to live in the same room. The beautiful women in bathrobes and jewels are in front of you, and they even ask you to talk to you, but you only think about your schoolwork and ancient books?
But Chu Zihang... is such a person, Lu Mingfei sighed in his heart, forget it, it would be good to talk about "Cuiyulu", at least the two of them found a common topic to communicate with, right?This is also in line with Chu Zihang's hobbies, it's better than staying together and looking at each other without words and just staring blankly, right?
"Senior Brother Lu, what do you think the 'Taiyi' here refers to? Do you agree with material or spiritual?" Xia Mi cast his gaze over.

"Uh……"

Lu Mingfei was dumbfounded, you two just argue, don't get involved with me, Chu Zihang finally managed to chat with girls alone, even though the discussion was a purely academic topic without any pink bubbles, but why? It is also a milestone leap!Su Xiaoqiang, Liu Miaomiao, Chen Wenwen, who can get this kind of treatment?You must know that this guy has such a temper that he can't even take down Susie who is close to the water!

It's good for you, if you have the opportunity, you will forcefully pull in a light bulb. Lu Mingfei gave Xia Mi a bitter look, his eyes full of hatred that iron can't be turned into steel.

"Huh? Brother Lu, isn't he from the history department? Students in the history department should have a lot of research on the incomplete chapters of dragon classics like "Emerald Jade Records", right? Could it be that you, brother, don't like to study?" Xia Xia Mi asked, furrowing her beautiful eyebrows.

She misunderstood Lu Mingfei's eyes, thinking that the other party was complaining about why she suddenly asked academic questions.

She has tried her best to change the wording into a vague term like "I don't like studying very much" instead of directly using the straightforward description of "bad student". The Coke guy is pretty good, so wouldn't it be impolite to complain about his grades?

Lu Mingfei nodded crazily and said, Junior Sister, you guessed it right. I was a super scumbag at school. I usually only know how to play around. I don’t know anything about these academic topics like a toad listening to the scriptures... But I haven’t waited for him to speak. , Chu Zihang's words came in.

"Lu Mingfei is indeed very researched. He is the only 'S' grade in the college. He has completed all courses in advance with excellent grades, and he has also minored in many side subjects." Chu Zihang put down his book, looked up at Lu Mingfei as well, "I also want to know your understanding of this sentence."

Hell, I kept a low profile by not interjecting so as not to cover up your brilliance Brother, did I go to great lengths to let you have a room with a girl so that you can turn this place into a small academic seminar?

I can't handle either of you... Lu Mingfei stared at Chu Zihang, slandering bitterly.

"Wow... so excellent! I can't tell it at all!" Xia Mi stared at Lu Mingfei with rounded eyes, and his tone was full of disbelief, "Then don't hide it, Senior Brother Lu, please express your opinion! "

Xia Mi held the bath towel in front of his chest in one hand, and stretched out the other hand in front of Lu Mingfei like holding a microphone, like an academic reporter doing an exclusive interview.

"If you have to choose one of the two, I'd rather be more supportive." Lu Mingfei rolled his eyes and replied.

"Yeah!" Xia Mi jumped up, and made a victory gesture to Chu Zihang, and senior brother Lu Mingfei also stood by her side, and now it is two to one.

Chu Zihang looked at this junior sister with a boyish personality, and shook his head helplessly. Anything can be used as a competition, isn't this the character of a little boy?At least since childhood, Chu Zihang has basically been "other people's children". Few people would take the initiative to compare him with him. ...He is indeed a big boy, anyway, Chu Zihang always felt that Caesar really didn't grow up.

"But in the report I gave to my mentor, my point of view was 'I said it'." Lu Mingfei interrupted Xia Mi's victory celebration.

"'I said it'?" Xia Mi and Chu Zihang looked at each other, so now the three of them insisted on their own opinions, and they split into three factions.

"How do you explain it?" Chu Zihang asked Xiang Lu Mingfei, who seemed very interested in the new term proposed by the latter.

"Among the researchers of the Medieval Jade Records, some people thought that it was a work pretending to be a god, but the author was 'infinitely close to God' and was 'stealing the law of God', because he was afraid that this law would be understood by ordinary people. , so the secret language was used." Lu Mingfei looked at Chu Zihang and said.

"The sacrificial body in ancient Egyptian?"

"Yes, the sacrificial body was only mastered by the monks in the Middle Ages. Arabic replaced Egyptian as the common language of Egypt in the seventh century AD, so the sacrificial body is difficult to interpret. Brother Chu, the Newtonian translation you used may be full of mistakes..." Xia Mi She added that she and Lu Mingfei gave a high five to congratulate them for taking the lead in giving Chu Zihang's "material theory" to Pass.

"But I don't completely agree with the spirit. If humans can evolve into dragons, she has no need or any way to return to the human world... Even if she is well versed in the laws of the human world and is proficient in imitating human nature and emotions, she still I can't return, because in her bones... she is still not a real person." Lu Mingfei said this while looking at Xia Mi.

Xia Mi was a little silent when she heard it, as if something dark flashed across her eyes quickly, then she raised her head, looked at Lu Mingfei, and asked with a smile: "Then how can she return to being a human being?"

"This involves what I call 'I speak'." Lu Mingfei said in a deep voice, "I ascend to the upper realm, while the ego stays in the lower realm, one side controls the power of dragons, and the other keeps the human soul ..."

Lu Mingfei suddenly lowered his head in silence, because he thought of him and Lu Mingze for no reason... He suddenly realized that these words really described them, didn't they?

"It's an interesting statement." Chu Zihang nodded while quickly jotting down notes in his notebook.

Xia Mi took a deep look at Lu Mingfei, as if there was something in the other person's words that could pierce her bone marrow. She seemed to be a different person, from a nympho girl to a gloomy girl, secretly planning something in her heart. Untold secrets.

Is it?The id retains the human soul?Is there such a way... Xia Mi's eyes flashed a golden light, and the confidant sister in his heart seemed to show up again.

However, this eerie atmosphere did not last long, because someone knocked on the door of the guest room suddenly.

"Meal delivery service." The person outside the door politely knocked on the door three times, and then said.

"Please come in." Lu Mingfei who was closest to the door opened the door.

A waiter in a black vest pushed a silver dining cart into the room, with a new white tablecloth drooping on it, and the waiter had a signature smile on his face.

"Mr. Chu Zihang ordered three servings of filet mignon, medium rare, three servings of pasta, two servings of black pepper and one serving of tomato, three times freshly squeezed orange juice, plus a fruit platter for everyone who stays in the suite, please take it easy .” The waiter shook off the white cloth, and the smell of grilled steak instantly filled the room.

"Ahhh, I love you the most, Senior Brother Chu!" Xia Mi excitedly jumped towards the dining car, almost running out.

When the waiter left, the black waiter quietly stuffed a Hyatt hotel letter into Lu Mingfei's hand.

The pale yellow envelope was printed with a very familiar logo - the half-decayed world tree.
