Chapter 406 East of Eden

In June 1971, before setting off for the summer vacation at Slughorn’s house, Pomona took Severus to find potion materials in the Forbidden Forest, as a gift to the greedy Dean of Slytherin. .

   "What's that?" The 11-year-old Slytherin looked up at a gleaming tree. It looked like a Muggle Christmas lantern, and it was very colorful.

"That's a tree monkey frog, native to South America. Be careful not to touch them. Their teeth are sharp." Pomona wore dragon leather gloves to squeeze the pus from the tuber of Balbo, which was sticky after being squeezed. , The plants that look like slugs glow more intensely.

   "How did the South American tree monkey frogs come to Scotland?" Lily was also looking at the glowing tree. "Are they the offspring of a cross between a tree frog and a monkey?"

   "No, that was God's plan." Sister Hefpaff said as she worked, "The tree monkey frog is a very popular pet. South American wizards have been exporting to the world."

   "I don't understand, what is God's plan." Lily said in confusion.

"Artificial life is God's forbidden zone, another fruit that cannot be tasted in the Garden of Eden." Pomona looked at the apple tree like a Christmas tree and said, "You can take some of their eggs. Now is their breeding season. When they feel dangerous, the pustule behind will become scarlet."

   "Nothing is red." Lily said after looking at the tree monkey frogs.

   "So they are happy now." Pomona smiled and said, "First warn you, their eggs are very similar to frog eggs. Don't you like Joko's frog egg soap?"

   "I just don't like to put frog eggs on my body, but it would be nice to use them as tree decorations." Lily said with joy, and planned to reach out and retrieve the eggs of the tree monkey frogs that were hugging each other.

"You don't like your body covered with frog eggs, how do you know that the tree likes it?" Pomona planned to teach Lily a lesson, but the red-haired girl didn't care so much at all, happily collecting those tree monkeys like lanterns The frog's eggs are gone.

  Severus was not interested in them. After observing for a while, he held up the fluorescent wand and looked for other materials.

   "Senior Sister!" After a while, Severus exclaimed, and Pomona immediately stood up, took her wand out while taking off her dragon leather gloves, and ran over to the sound.

Originally, Pomona thought he was in danger, but when he approached, he found a horseman standing in front of him. He looked up at the starry sky of Xia Ye, as if he was comprehending something. The three intruders interrupted his thoughts. , He turned his attention to them.

   "Hello, Ronan." Pomona greeted him.

   "Hello." Ronan said coldly, and then continued to look up at the sky.

   "What is he looking at?" Lily asked inexplicably.

   "Fate and stars." Pomona motioned to the two lower grades to follow her, "Come here, don't disturb them."

  Lily was very obedient and left, but Severus was still looking at Ronan.

   "What are you looking at!" Pomona covered Severus' eyes as he was looking at the horseman's privacy.

   "Why don't they wear clothes?" Severus asked.

   "They refused to wear it."

   "Why?"

   "I don't know." Pomona shrugged. "Maybe their definition of shame is different from ours."

   "Why is it different?"

  Pomona thought about how to answer.

"My mother always uses clothes to cover the meat on her belly, but the horseman exposed her belly. She can exercise to eliminate the meat on her belly instead of covering it. Can I understand that?" Lily Eating a chocolate frog while talking.

   "Your mother will be very sad, Lily." Pomona kept shaking her head "But you are right, Gryffindor will add 10 points."

   "You are not the prefect, so you don't count." Lily looked at her suspiciously. "Who are you, Gorgon?"

  Severus was lost in thought.

"What are you thinking?"

  Pomona and Lily looked at him together.

   "The horseman is not human, but I think he looks smarter than some people." Severus frowned. "He thinks deeper than he looks."

"If you are interested, I can continue to talk to you, but that is not understandable by an ordinary person." Pomona said. "Even some highly skilled wizards don't necessarily know. That requires a high level of savvy. I can I'll tell you when you grow up."

"Tell me, worker Gore." Lily looked eager to try. Both of them were top students, better than some children from pure-blood families, but Lily attracted the envy of girls, and Severus You have to face the bullying of the Slytherin boy.

  "About Egypt, what else do you know besides mummies?"

   "Pyramid." Lily said in a lively manner.

   "The Egyptian blue water lily, I have read in the book, is a powerful hallucinogenic drug." Severus said.

"This kind of flower has a characteristic. It blooms when the sun is shining during the day, closes at night, and opens again in the morning. In ancient Egyptian mythology, the sun was born from the blooming of lotus flowers, so the water lily shell is regarded as a sacred flower, a symbol There is only the beginning, and the blessing that will not be disillusioned. At the funeral of the Egyptians, lotus or water lily must be enshrined. They believe that lotus is helpful for the regeneration of the dead. The flower that best represents the Nile is the white lotus, and the blue water lily is the symbol of life. Used in religious ceremonies, the flower of life is the core of ancient Egypt’s mysticism. The Kabbalah tree of life is later than it. They all pursue the mysterious causality of the universe, but the flower of life is more complicated than the tree of life."

  Lily was not interested in this topic anymore, she turned to collect the frog eggs, only Severus was still listening carefully.

   "Some people think that it is happy to return to the Garden of Eden, so that you can live a carefree life under God's rule, just like the original Adam." Pomona lowered her voice and said, "Do you think that is happy?"

"My prefect has a carefree life, never worry about money, has a handsome appearance and a perfect family background, but I know that he doesn't want to marry the marriage partner arranged by his father, and he wants to marry Narcissa Black. , If you said that the price of not worrying about food and clothing is that you can't get what you want as you want, then I don't like that kind of happiness." Severus said coldly, "I don't want to be that kind of peacock."

   "Lucius Malfoy still has this side." Pomona murmured, "I really can't see it."

   "Senior sister!" Severus said angrily.

"As you said, the Eden of God was arranged by the God of Genesis. It was his plan and aesthetic arrangement. All that is not implemented according to his plan will be destroyed if he is not satisfied. The wizard uses his own participation. Enlightenment and cultivation, learn knowledge from the creator of the world, understand his power and rules, and then act for yourself and arrange your own garden according to your own will. The wizard will become the **** in this garden. If you raise one If the pet is obedient and obedient in the garden, then he can enjoy a comfortable life that cannot be enjoyed in the wild. If he is not obedient, he should be driven out. The pet will definitely not have a comfortable life in the wild without a garden. At that time, he I just want to make up for my fault and regain the master’s forgiveness. At that moment, you are the **** in the garden, Severus. When we have explored all the profound meanings, we will be equal to the founder. Status, if he is unwilling to share the supreme position with us, then there will be a big battle. He will leave a rule for himself, so that the creatures within the rule will always obey his commands, and this is what we want to explore for generations. "

  "Challenge the God of Creation?" Severus asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes, sorcerers are the kind of people who do not become lambs, so our fate is cursed. Cain killed his brother Abel, which angered God, so he punished Cain for wandering and wandering, he gave The power of Cain's immortality is exactly what humans are searching for. The Kabbalah tree of life has 10 chakras. The crown of this tree that grows in the opposite direction, which is closest to God, has the'magic' and'justice' in this position. It happens to be where our minds are, so, Severus, do you choose to be a magician or a judge in charge of justice?"

  As soon as Pomona waved her magic wand, a chakra diagram of the tree of reverse life appeared in the air. Each chakra has its own color, just as beautiful as the apple tree next to it with tree monkeys and frogs.

   "Of course it is a wizard." A dazzling light burst into his eyes "In the name of Merlin."

"You don't need to swear by his name. If you choose to go this way, then you are just like him, a pathfinder, wizard." Pomona said with some jealousy. The wizard was about the pursuit of power and truth. Witch’s desire is much stronger than that of witches. Witches are more responsible for passing on knowledge and continuing offspring. Helena, who is thinking about falling in love all day and unwilling to be fooled by love, puts on Ravenclaw’s crown and pursues wisdom. In the end, Barrow the Blood Man was killed. Why couldn't he let her go?

   "You mean, I can be a wizard like Merlin?" Severus asked in surprise.

"You are all wizards, and you are all Slytherins, why not?" Pomona said irresponsibly. This is a magnificent dream, but it is difficult to achieve. Anyway, he is a child and it is easy to forget. of.

   "Gorgon, look!" Lily showed Pomona a bag of frog eggs.

   "Why do you collect so much?"

   "I can give some to my friends."

   "Will Muggle girls like this?" Pomona asked suspiciously, and Lily was stunned.

   "They would scream and yell disgusting." Severus said with a disdainful face, "Muggles."
