One Thousand Seventy-Four, the Secret of the Organization
The Sheepman's words were like a key, unlocking the last doubt in Ren Xiaosu's heart.
It turned out that the stone in Mego's hand was the key to the wizard.
If you have that stone, then you are qualified to be a wizard. If you don’t have that stone, then you will study witchcraft all your life, and you will never be able to become a real wizard.
However, Ren Xiaosu still had such a stone.
He looked at Li Guoguo: "What's the name of that stone?"
"It seems that you really don't know anything about the kingdom of wizards," Li Guoguo shook his head, "It's the same as the name of the wizard organization, it's called the Eye of True Sight, and all the stones in the wizard's hands are called the Eye of True Sight."
The so-called eye of true seeing means that wizards can use it to find the truth of the world and see the power that ordinary people cannot find.
The Eye of True Sight can be said to be an open secret in the wizarding world. Maybe some ordinary people don't know about it, but most people who know a little about wizards know its existence.
"Where do these eyes of true seeing come from?" Ren Xiaosu wondered.
"Actually, it doesn't matter if I tell you this," Li Guoguo said, "The Eye of True Sight is basically in the hands of wizard organizations. They control the mines where the Eye of True Sight can be discovered, and ordinary people cannot enter it."
"So, who can be a wizard and who can't be a wizard is determined by the wizarding organization?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"Yes," Li Guoguo thought to himself that this is not a secret, so it's okay to talk about it.
And just like what Ren Xiaosu said, it was a foregone conclusion that this middle-earth boy would become a wizard's entourage, and the two servants had better resign themselves to their fate earlier.
Of course, there is no other way if you don't accept your fate and tell the truth, they really can't beat this guy!
Seeing this young man in shackles beating them is like playing games. If the shackles are taken off, why not hang them up and beat them? !
At this time, Liu Ting said from the side with his panda eyes: "But there are exceptions."
Ren Xiaosu asked: "What exception?"
"I also said just now that the eye of true seeing exists in the mine, but over the years, there will always be stones falling into the river and being washed down the river," Liu Ting said: "Therefore, there will be lucky ones Pick it up and become a new wizard. However, although the wizard organization also recognizes this kind of wizard and grants them a fief, allowing them to build a wizard tower to enjoy the tax of the fief, but in fact, the wizard organization does not like this kind of wizard. "
Ren Xiaosu wondered why this thing sounds like a certain kind of jade from the northwest. Some collectors especially like this kind of jade in the river. The jade dug out of the mine is called mountain material, while the one found in the river is called seed material... …
Under normal circumstances, the seed material in the river will be much more expensive than the mountain material.
However, the situation in the wizarding country is the opposite. This kind of wizarding identity beyond the control of the wizarding organization is like an idler in society. Although he has a formal establishment, he is excluded from the core circle.
"The wizarding organization is a very small circle," Li Guoguo said: "They insist that they are the gods in the sky. The eye of true sight is generally passed down from father to son, and son to grandson. And these people , then control the entire kingdom of wizards. The wizard who picked up the stone is called the son of God, probably to fulfill their saying that the divine right is granted by God, but the status of this kind of son of god is much lower than that of ordinary wizards, and after death The Eye of True Sight cannot be passed on to future generations, it must be handed over to the wizarding organization."
"Oh," Ren Xiaosu nodded, "That is to say, the Son of God can only honor this generation, and nothing will be left after death."
"Yes," Li Guoguo nodded: "Besides, under normal circumstances, the dirty work is done by these god-given sons. The advantage is that the wizard organization will indeed give them some training.
So that they can match the identity of the wizard, so as not to embarrass the wizard. "
The son bestowed by God sounds very powerful, but wizards regard themselves as gods, so the son bestowed by god is their son, it sounds like they are taking advantage...
It was no wonder that Mego was so weak. Although the wizarding organization taught him some witchcraft earnestly so that he would not embarrass the wizarding organization, his unique skill of housekeeping must still be a secret.
Ren Xiaosu thought for a while and suddenly asked: "Isn't it the case that Mego was excluded? Is that why he picked up his true vision?"
Li Guoguo and Liu Ting looked at each other: "Forget it, it's okay to tell you, anyway, the people in his fief know about it, yes, he is the son of God."
"It's no wonder he was sent to such a place where the birds don't shit," Ren Xiaosu murmured, "It's no wonder he's depressed every day."
"Don't think so," Li Guocheng said, "Even if he is the son bestowed by the gods, he still has a lofty status in the kingdom of wizards. Whoever doesn't give him face will be at odds with the entire wizard organization. If his status is low, that is just It's just a low status in the wizarding organization. But his true sight is not picked up..."
Having said that, Liu Ting pulled Li Guoguo's arm aside, signaling him not to continue talking.
Ren Xiaosu laughed happily: "Oh, there is something hidden in it, you see, are you guys going to say it now, or after I beat you up?"
Li Guoguo and Liu Ting, the two sheep people, were aggrieved for a long time: "Master Mei Ge's true seeing eye is bought, but not everyone can buy it, it depends on luck."
Ren Xiaosu changed his mind: "Since he is the son of God, why do you follow him? Why don't you follow a more powerful wizard?"
"We would like to, but people have to ask us to do it," Li Guoguo said bitterly: "Wizards are all high-ranking gods, and the ones that ordinary people can get in touch with are god-given children. It took a lot of money to let us learn from him."
"Study?" Ren Xiaosu asked curiously: "You guys don't have the eyes of true seeing, why learn witchcraft from him?"
"What if one day we also find the Eye of True Sight?" Liu Ting said.
Ren Xiaosu smiled, he knew that things were not that simple, the two sheep people must have something to hide from him, but don't worry, the time is still long and you can take your time.
Isn't this pleasant exchange tonight a good start? !
"One last question," Ren Xiaosu asked cheerfully, "Mego asked me if I saw the black Eye of True Seeing in Middle Earth. What's the situation with this thing? Is it different from the one in his own hand?"
"The black eye of true seeing," Li Guocheng said, "that kind of thing generally only exists in legends. Some people say that there are no more than three black eyes of true seeing in the entire wizarding organization, and Master Mego has The white in it is the lowest level."
