Chapter 731 Returnee's Island
The Liechtenstein royal family is like the most beautiful girl at the ball. Every guy wants to ask her, but she already has a heart. "Trying luck" on her is simply asking for trouble. The smart way for the guy is to find a way to make an appointment. Girls second and third and after.
They are different from the Queen of England, where the cost of going to the barbershop must be publicized and supervised by all the people. The invitation letter in Pomona's pocket can only go to the ball held by the Marquise of Sweden once. How can Venetians get into that celebrity in the future? It is not her problem to attract Swiss bank customers on the gathering occasions.
Napoleon has a good saying that there is a sleeping lion in the east, and the Venetians are still sleeping. If they don't have that enterprising spirit and are content with the status quo and make no changes, then Venice will still sink.
If you want to save your city, you have to do it yourself. Pomona has taught many students. Most of them are keen on Quidditch and other people's romantic affairs. They don't have the motivation to learn. Basically, they want to become strong. Is impossible.
Harry is also that kind of kid. He and Ron both had a good time at school. Fortunately, there is Hermione who loves to read, but he also has qualities that Hermione as a nerd doesn't have, that is, he is not so conservative.
Why can't the Chinese lead the Venetians to establish a neutral country?
Now they are no longer closed and locked up in the same way as in the Qing Dynasty. Besides, the Jews are not born and raised in Venice. The city of Venice is also a city of immigrants, and their influence in the city of Venice cannot be underestimated.
In the end, the Easterners still don't understand the Westerners enough. Only by knowing oneself and the enemy can they survive the battle.
Attila, the whip of God, also studied in the Western Roman Empire. At that time, the Western Roman Empire wanted to teach him Western civilization and domesticate the unruly wolf. He was sent to the Roman court as one of the hostages in the peace treaty. Yes, when he was in Rome, Attila received a good education at the court, and at the same time learned Roman traditions and customs from there, as well as their luxurious way of life.
If he chooses to live a luxurious life, like Liu Adou's "reluctant to think of Shu", then there is no God's whip.
However, he chose another way of life, he chose to be a real wolf, and his name still brings fear even after so many years.
Instead of going to those popular attractions, they took a steamboat to Torcello Island, a 45-minute voyage from the main island. Ali Sandro picked up Monica on the way, because Severus joined the voyage. It's so dull, it's not as easy, exciting and enjoyable as the previous few days.
Sometimes people just need the company of a "Bengal Tiger" to survive the sea rafting like the juvenile school.
In Venice, there are no tigers on this boat, but there is a hole. The sea water will erode the paint of the gondola. To keep the boat in a brand new look, the boatman needs to maintain it himself, and balance his expenses. Be a gondola boatman. Although the income is good among the civilian class, it is nothing at all in the face of the truly wealthy.
The shepherd boy, David, can also become a king. Han Gaozu Liu Bang is also a gangster. It is not that difficult to be the mayor of a small city. The key is that it is not so easy to reverse the mental state of people.
The power of religion is so powerful. Due to the rapid rise of the Arabs, Constantinople, located in the Golden Bay, has to face bitter battles again.
Before the establishment of the Isurian Dynasty, the Eastern Roman Empire had been in an "anarchy" for six years, with refugees and robbers taking advantage of the fire everywhere.
In 716, the leader of ***, Mosrama, led an army of 80,000 amphibious and land-based troops to push Constantinople again. Emperor Theodosius III was helpless, so the warlord of Asia Minor Leo III took the opportunity to seize power and ascended to the highest throne.
Faced with the common threat "Sword of God", Pope Gregory II supported the Byzantine Empire.
When the Arab navy came to the city, it was Leo III who burned the Arab fleet with Greek fire, and the pope and the patriarch calmed the frightened civilians.
This big victory also allowed the Arabs to expel missionaries in the territory, leading to a significant increase in the number of monks in the territory. The monks and churches have always enjoyed many privileges in the empire. There is a church book that says: "Humanity is divided into two halves, half are monks, and the other half are laymen." Although the actual number of monks is less than half of the population, they The land occupied accounted for almost half of the empire. And they also have tax exemption rights and other privileges. At the same time, the empire has more and more civilians without land.
Early Christianity emphasized spiritual beliefs and banned idolatry. However, with its development, Christianity gradually embarked on the path of idolatry. Icons and saint remains were enshrined by monasteries. The idolatry of the saints has led to many aspects of Christianity. The danger of theism seriously violates the essence of Christianity as a monotheism. Some people within Christianity themselves are very dissatisfied with this, and Leo III is taking advantage of these flaws and launching the "smashing icon" campaign to seize power from the church.
This is basically the same as the slaughter of Buddhas in China. The damage caused by theocratic power over the world is obvious to all. Many people think that Italy is the hardest hit area in the witch hunting movement. After all, the papal country is geographically located on the peninsula.
In fact, the real hardest hit areas are in Germany, followed by France, Poland, Switzerland, and Luxembourg, especially in the Alps in the 15th and 16th centuries. There is no way to determine how many people died. In Italy, the Pope's approval is needed to burn people to death. The young cardinals opposed this kind of fanatical religious sentiment. They invented a "rational" wizard oven. They burned people in the oven without hearing and seeing the screams of "witchers" engulfed by flames. Up.
The Germans were very barbaric before modernization. Voltaire said: The Holy Roman Empire is neither holy nor Rome, nor is it an empire.
Rome speaks the rule of law, while the German-speaking area has thousands of administrative areas under the system of the Holy Roman Empire, such as Milan. There are so many kings in fairy tales. It is probably that time.
They have a lot of power in their own territories. Snow White's stepmother put on red iron shoes, and even after witch hunts stopped on the mainland, England still has a water test method, which is like this in the barren land far away from civilization. , The legal consciousness is weak, and the locals use "natural justice" and divine justice to conduct trials, and because the brand of barbarians is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the forest is called "Black Forest" not only looks dark, but the German wizards are not themselves. I am willing to go black, but I will die if I don't put on a black robe. Fear can produce deterrent. Muggles are in the city, and witchcraft is in the mountains and forests.
But in Hungary and Transylvania, there is another saying that wizards spread the plague through "magiaposthuma".
"Human" represents human beings in English. Posthuma can be understood as a person in the past or a dead person. Most people think that "magiaposthuma" refers to a vampire, or the ashes left by the burning of the dead body. The tomb was dug out, burned into ashes and smeared on the doorknob to spread the plague.
Witch is not a good word. The first time Severus saw Lily using his abilities, he called her a witch. No wonder she was angry.
But he was so happy that he couldn't take care of a lot, because he found the first of his kind.
In the bumpy waves, Pomona looked at the deserted island in the distance. It was far less lively than the main island, and it was almost desolate, but this place was the real starting point of Venice.
First, there was this place, then Burano, and then the more promising main island of Venice. Venice is not just a small piece of land. It can only be reached by boat like overseas colonies, American writer. Hemingway once lived on that island.
People can be destroyed, but they cannot be defeated. Maybe not everyone can be a big winner in life, but in the face of a frustrated life, please stay calm and live calmly, whether you are obscured or ordinary. The important thing is that as long as a person is alive, No matter how you have nothing, you should not lose your dignity and demeanor.
It took us two years to learn to speak, but it took sixty years to learn to shut up. Most of the time, the more we talk, the farther we are, and the more contradictions we have. In communication, most people are always anxious to express themselves, vomiting quickly, but they don't understand the other party at all.
Pomona fell into Severus's arms, his “mudblood” that blurted out ended his first love, and then took care of the first love's son for the rest of his life, and he even died once.
Not every first love can end successfully and go to the palace of marriage.
"How weird we are." She whispered in the sea breeze, "I don't want to go to the beautiful Rainbow Island, but go to such a horrible place."
"You are weird, senpai." Severus kissed her forehead. "What are you thinking?"
"magiaposthuma, did the devil who waited for the witch to continue trading by the bridge changed." Pomona whispered, "Do you think there will be vampires on this island?"
"What to bet on?"
"I don't know, what do you want to bet on?"
He leaned against his ear and whispered softly.
She was furious and beat him hard!
When will she be able to ride a gondola?
