Encouragement to Study
Although he had to go to class, Rui Hang did not intend to read from the book right away.
Not to mention that it has been more than 500 years since he last worked as a high school teacher, so he is already very unfamiliar with teaching. What's more, the most important thing now is not to cram the textbook contents, but to leave enough time for students, including himself, to adapt to the change of identity.
Rui Hang turned around, erased the writing on the blackboard, picked up the pen and wrote a new line of words.
Self-awareness
"Marxism believes that the essence of man in its reality is the sum of all social relations." As a political teacher and demon ruler, Rui Hang has these theoretical knowledge at his fingertips: "Now that we have returned to Earth, I don't care whether you were the empress of the empire, the son of the temple, or the goddess of a country. Now your social relations have left you with only two identities - human beings and students. How to play the role of a student well, whether to hide your shortcomings or to show off, whether to be regarded as a genius or a madman, these are your problems, and I will not interfere too much. There is only one thing -"
Rui Hang paused and said, "Time travel is our common secret and our common trump card. I don't want to receive a doctor's notice one day in the future saying that a student in our class has fallen into delusion and has been taken to a mental hospital for treatment, or be invited to the office by the superiors for tea and sign a lot of confidentiality agreements. So please use yourselves to control the scale. As for some students who have grievances and emotional disputes in the past, please adjust them on your own. I also don't want to be invited to the principal's office for tea because of premature love."
“Some classmates” who have emotional disputes: “…”
Ignoring the teasing or embarrassed looks from the students, Rui Hang continued to write on the blackboard: "Memory and Magic"
"Regarding this point, I think some of you must have noticed it before I wrote it down." As he spoke, Rui Hang pointed his finger at the front left of the classroom: "Chen Qiting, what do you think?"
Shen Qiting, who did not expect to be called suddenly, was stunned for a moment as the history class representative and the strongest astrologer of Parnaki. He stood up a little awkwardly under the gaze of everyone.
As an autistic sorcerer who has traveled alone for hundreds of years with only books as her companions, Shen Qiting, who used to be a class leader and was quite graceful, is no longer used to the feeling of speaking in public. But facing Rui Hang's trusting and encouraging eyes, she quickly composed a sentence in her mind and spoke with courage: "Teacher Rui is referring to the fact that after we traveled back to Earth, less than 18 years of human memory and identity recognition can compete with Parnaki's century-old memory, and that none of us can use magic anymore."
After getting Rui Hang's approval, she breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "The great magician, Mr. Klosschi Parinde, once wrote in "The Nature of Magic": The essence of magic comes from the soul. The strength of the soul is closely related to magical talent. The so-called "cultivation" is to absorb magic power through meditation and temper the soul, so that the soul circuit can accommodate more magic power. Taking the humans of Parnaki as an example, 20% of the magic power is distributed in the body and 80% is distributed in the soul circuit. Although not everyone of us has lived in Parnaki for five hundred years, we have at least experienced a hundred years of life and gained powerful magic power. These magic powers are also part of our souls and cannot be separated. Therefore, I boldly speculate that there are only two possibilities for us to be unable to use magic power now and not feel offended by human life in the past."
"The first is that if the soul wants to complete the journey between two non-intersecting worlds, it must consume a lot of magic power. This has long been confirmed: when we first traveled through time, we were all reborn as babies, and our memories of humans were slowly restored in the following years. This is strong evidence that the soul is damaged when traveling through time. But now we have traveled back to Earth again, and it has only been an hour since the first time we traveled through time, and our memories of the Earth period and the Parnaki period are very clear. This is most likely because when our souls returned to Earth, the magic power offset most of the consumption, allowing our souls to still be able to At the same time, for the Earth without magic, our bodies cannot be nourished by magic, and we will certainly not be able to accommodate souls with powerful magic. Once the two sides are forcibly merged, □□ will inevitably age rapidly. At that time, we were reborn as babies, which was also a natural choice for the soul to cultivate and merge in the other world. Now, our souls have made a natural choice again - to amplify the memory and personality of the Earth period, to make up for the aging of the soul over a hundred years, and at the same time to speed up our return to our original identity and merge with □□. For us now, the hundred years of Parnaki are a long memory and a dream. "
"As for the second one, it is basically the same as the first one, except for one point: our magic power was not completely worn out during the journey, but was temporarily 'sealed'. Firstly, it is to allow our bodies on Earth to better integrate with our souls, and secondly, the Earth today does not need magic power. If we rashly allow a group of people with powerful powers that are beyond the scientific system to appear, it will only bring an irresistible crisis to this world."
At this point, Shen Qiting pushed up his glasses and said, "The principle of astrology comes from the analysis and deduction of magic circuits and astrological phenomena, not prying into the secrets of heaven or making arbitrary predictions about fate. Now that I can't use magic, I can't answer the question of who has enough power to seal our souls and send us back to Earth, or whether the seal will be lifted in the future, and whether we will regain magic power. I can't make any guesses."
"This information is more than enough." Rui Hang nodded with satisfaction and gave her an admiring look: "Your answer is more complete than the one I prepared."
After getting Rui Hang's approval, a slight curve appeared at the corner of Shen Qiting's mouth, which instantly made her already delicate features lively, and she really had some of the youthfulness of a high school student.
After solving the most crucial problem, Rui Hang raised his hand and wrote the third line.
"future"
It is obviously unrealistic to let these old foxes who have lived for hundreds of years continue to indulge in the general public's basic understanding of high school students: study hard, take the college entrance examination, get into a good university, and then take the postgraduate entrance examination, the civil service examination, and the job examination...
They have experienced so much that their horizons are far beyond those of an ordinary student. Even if they do not have scientific knowledge, they can at least have enough food and clothing, even if they do not achieve success or fame, thanks to their accumulation of literature and art over the past century.
The reason why the word "college entrance examination" is emphasized nowadays is, firstly, to let these students realize their identities and use their student status as a buffer to gradually adapt to the modern life that has long been off track. Secondly, the knowledge in textbooks is not useless, and it can help them find their interests. Although the earth has no magic, it has rich theoretical knowledge, a huge and perfect social system, and "science" that supports mankind to open up a new path, which are all lacking in Parnaki.
Magic is the foundation of Parnaqui's strength, but it also limits the progress of Parnaqui's technology and ideas.
Rui Hang didn't know if they would return to Parnaqui one day in the future. There were many students in his class who managed a country or a race like him. If you want to improve the material level of the people and the national experience, it is meaningless to rely on magic and force. He believed that the students knew this very well. Even if they could not return to Parnaqui in the end, or chose to stay on Earth, the rich knowledge reserve would allow them to have a good idea when choosing any profession.
But the most important thing about the word "future" is not these.
"Like Chen Qiting said, maybe we can return to Parnaqui one day in the future. Or worse, Parnaqui and Earth are in opposition, and magic and technology coexist." His eyes slowly swept across every face below the podium, and his expression was no longer relaxed at the beginning: "Although it is a bit worrying to raise this question now, I still hope that you can make a judgment in your hearts in advance: If there is really a day in the future when the Earth and Parnaqui are in opposition, which side will you choose?"
Silence spread in the classroom. Rui Hang was not in a hurry to hear their answers. He waited quietly until a student let out a low sigh.
"...Can't we choose both?"
"Stay even is one of the options, but you have to think clearly about how to keep it even, which is more difficult than a unilateral camp choice." Rui Hang said, "Resources are limited, but desires are unlimited. Unequal resources and strengths will inevitably lead to conflicts. This question is also asking myself, if one day in the future, human artillery and bullets are aimed at the demons, or the demons' sharp blades are slashed at humans, as the lord of the demons, how should I choose? I will not interfere with your choice. I just hope that every step you take in the future can be cautious and have a clear conscience."
“Snap, snap, snap—”
The sudden applause at the classroom door interrupted the increasingly solemn atmosphere in the room.
"Teacher Rui, you said it well, but I don't quite understand what you said." The principal stood at the door with a smile, looking very kind: "Is this from a movie?"
In an instant, several cold rays flashed in the students' eyes.
As long as Rui Hang gives the order, even if they have no magic power now, the remaining fighting instincts in their bodies can still support them to complete a precise and neat decapitation operation.
Faced with the principal's friendly expression, Rui Hang said calmly, "Thunderstorm is a western fantasy adaptation. The Mid-Autumn Festival Gala is coming soon, and I am rehearsing lines with the students and preparing the program."
"Your class is preparing to perform a play, not bad, not bad." The principal nodded, obviously quite satisfied. But he quickly stopped smiling, put his hands behind his back, and put on an unfathomable attitude of giving instructions: "Teacher Rui, I am still relieved, but the students' main job is to study. Although the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala is important, you still have to focus on studying. Don't put the cart before the horse."
"The principal is right." Rui Hang nodded and said, "All the students in our class know what to do and will not fall behind in their studies."
Class 9 students: “…”
"As expected of Teacher Rui, you are so conscious." The principal was finally satisfied and walked to another class with his hands behind his back. Not long after, a strong voice sounded again across the corridor.
"...Class 9 next door has already started preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival program, and look at how lifeless you all are! You've all become stupid from studying so much, it's a bit boring!"
Class 9 students: “…”
No matter how fickle the principal's mood was, this shout truly dispelled the gloom in the classroom and brought everyone back to their youthful school days.
As the saying goes, if you have come, you should make the best of it. Since the future is unpredictable, it is better to live in the present and enjoy the rare breath of youth.
Accompanied by the clear and melodious bell sound, the first class after the time travel ended here.
"Oh, right." Picking up the book on the table, Rui Hang was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and stopped in his tracks: "The political class representative will go to my office to get the test papers later. One for each student. Hand it in tomorrow after you finish."
Class 9 students: “…”
This time the youthful atmosphere is too strong!
