Chapter 216 The Shocking Secret
Chapter 217 Shocking Secret
"Church? Why did you suddenly think of this?"
Zhang Chengdao asked a little strangely.
"I believe. In the letter Professor Dumbledore gave me last year, it was mentioned that the church is hunting down wizards. Does the church also have people like us?"
Zhang Xiao dug around in the Qiankun bag for a while, then took out the wooden box from the Qiankun bag and found the letter.
"Oh, I want to talk to you." Zhang Chengdao estimated the time and felt it was still early, so he simply took out the small tea table and asked his son to make tea.
The co-pilot and flight attendant in the cockpit almost stared out of their eyes. During this time, they had been quietly discussing for a long time who this mysterious Asian father and son were.
The two of them had thought about all kinds of legends and comics, but taking out the table and teapot from the 'void' still shattered their views.
The two people had already made the sign of the cross in unison.
One person held a cup of hot tea and blew away the foam. Zhang Chengdao took a beautiful sip before saying comfortably:
“The church does have people like us.
And it was very powerful at one time, at least the strongest in Europe. "
Zhang Xiao asked in confusion:
"But where did they get their extraordinary power?"
Zhang Chengdao asked meaningfully:
"Xiaoxiao, I told you before that ordinary people's beliefs may also produce certain visions. Of course, the conditions for their formation are very harsh. Like the God of the church, everyone has a different understanding of God, which makes it difficult to form spirituality.
This is also the reason why evil gods use fear, because fear is very pure and can easily unite believers.
But what if those little wizards didn't go to Hogwarts, but entered the church? "
Zhang Xiao felt as if there was a dull thunder in his heart. What if the little wizard entered the church?
After so many years of development, the spiritual power of wizards has become quite mature, and they have even developed a standard spell system.
But what will happen if it is in the church?
Based on faith, will there be a so-called magical system?
No wonder. No wonder. Zhang Xiao was also surprised that in ancient times, people were extremely afraid of the power of wizards. In this case, young wizards would instinctively suppress their own power.
It is extremely easy to produce obscurity in this situation.
At that time, the power of Obscurus was enough to easily destroy a small city.
However, the number of Obscurs in the records is not large, and it can even be said to be rare. Zhang Xiao has never been able to understand it.
So those children were all absorbed into the church?
Because it’s easier for children to be brainwashed and establish beliefs?
So what is the purpose of arresting wizards?
Zhang Xiao's heart felt cold. Why were all the people arrested witches? Could it be.
A terrible suspicion emerged uncontrollably.
Zhang Chengdao saw that his son's expression was not right and asked curiously:
"What's wrong? What else have you thought of?"
Zhang Xiao whispered his guess to his father. Zhang Chengdao pondered for a moment and said slowly:
"The power of the church is indeed powerful. When it was at its strongest, it came to China, but it just didn't come after being beaten by us.
After the Eastern Expedition, we fought fiercely with the Islamic religion several times, resulting in great consumption and heavy losses.
It seems that from that time on, the church began to decline, which continues to this day, but with the whole of Europe as a supplement, it stands to reason that this should not be the case.
At least every time our Taoist sect encounters a catastrophe, we can recover as long as we cultivate for a hundred or two hundred years. "
Zhang Chengdao was scratching his head. In fact, the Taoist sect was also at a loss as to why the church suddenly declined.
Although the Taoist door cannot come out, it does not mean that their eyes and ears are blocked. They will also try to understand some things.
"I'm afraid I know why."
Zhang Xiao had the feeling of peering into a secret. It was the excitement of seeing through the fog that shrouded history and directly witnessing the real history.
"Because Hogwarts was established! Hogwarts was established during the Eastern Expedition!"
The time is just right too! Almost all around 1000 AD!
Zhang Chengdao was a little confused: "What does the establishment of Hogwarts have to do with the decline of the church?"
"It's very relevant!" Zhang Xiao drank the tea in his hand in one gulp. Even with the silencing spell, he still lowered his voice unconsciously.
"Dad, do you know how Hogwarts selects students?"
He looked at the curious look on Zhang Chengdao's face and said softly:
"The Book of Access and the Pen of Acceptance! Their detection range covers all of England.
When a child first shows magical talent, the quill will fly out of the inkwell in an attempt to enter the child's name into the Book of Access.
Just a hint of magic is enough to move the pen of acceptance.
The Book of Access is even more restrictive, refusing to be written until it receives sufficiently exciting evidence of magical possession. "
Zhang Xiao’s eyes seemed to be shining:
"Dad, don't you understand yet?
When these two things were created, Hogwarts effectively had a monopoly on wizards throughout Britain.
They dug up the roots of the church! "
Even with Zhang Chengdao's determination, he couldn't help but slightly widen his eyes, shocked by his son's guess.
A powerful force, the church that once dominated Europe, even a behemoth comparable to Taoism, is actually so weak?
But if what his son said was true, everything would be right!
After a long while, Zhang Chengdao smacked his lips and said:
"Shh, these wizards have such powerful means! This kind of strategy can be regarded as a genius of the previous generation."
In fact, it's more than that.
Zhang Xiao lowered his head slightly to hide the shock in his heart. Why did his parents get kicked out by the old Taoist priest before they were pregnant?
Why did he choose to give birth to himself in the British Isles?
Because only children born in Europe will be recorded in the Book of Admission and the Pen of Acceptance!
Although I don't know how Beauxbatons and Durmstrang select students, their methods should not be bad. These three wizard schools have dug up the roots of the church!
Relying solely on their own internal reproduction, coupled with the dumb cannons and the general lack of wizards, it is inevitable that the church will be weakened like this.
Grandpa, why did you go to great lengths to send me to England to learn magic?
Zhang Xiao didn't know, but the price paid for this kind of big divination that included the past, present and future would definitely not be small!
Grandpa, old master, you seem to be playing a big game of chess!
For a while, the whole cabin was quiet. The father and son were both worried, drinking tea silently and slowly lost in thought.
In this atmosphere, the plane gradually descended in altitude.
Zhang Xiao suddenly woke up, he stood up suddenly, but found that his father also raised his head. He raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:
"Feel it? This is just in the sky. When you step on that land later, the feeling will be more obvious!"
Zhang Xiao didn't speak, but tried to feel the strange feeling with his heart.
It was a kind of extremely depressing and heavy feeling. He seemed to become extremely small and looked up at the giant.
It was a kind of pressure, mighty and irresistible like the power of heaven.
A kind of pressure that even made the soul tremble.
I don't know when the silent magic I set was broken, and the voice of the flight attendant sounded in the cabin:
"Passengers, the plane is in good condition now.
We have arrived in the People's Republic of China."
