Chapter 400: When will you truly grow up psychologically?
Amelia, how long will it take for you to grow up and stop making people around you worry about you!
"Alas..." Strike out the last sentence. The other party has been a child prodigy since he was young, but things have not been smooth sailing since he came here. So he redoubled his efforts, because everything was pinned on this little person. No matter how hard he tried, it seemed that he could not see the end of everything. He was under severe physical and psychological pressure...
This has led to almost pathological behavior. I hope this child can become a mentally normal scientist, which is more likely to have better results than an abnormal scientist.
This kid...his parents died seven years ago, and because of an accidental carriage fall off a cliff, he became more hardworking and more closed himself off.
People around him have always been concerned about the child, but the child...cannot accept the care, because the death of his parents brought him too much trauma. In fact, he calculated his age.
Because he is a child prodigy, he entered his own course at the age of 15. Now he is almost 25 years old, but he is still like a child, which makes people worry.
Perhaps it was because of the psychological trauma caused by the death of his parents when he was about to become an adult. For a long time, he was unwilling to go out and almost dropped out of school because of this. He had to put small gifts at the door every day, then hide in the distance and watch secretly after knocking on the door.
This child is one of my best students. Although he is not just my student, he is the one I have devoted the most efforts to...
Everyone around him cares about this child because he is smaller than the others, but this care cannot last forever...
He is gradually able to accept care, which is a good thing, but many of his behaviors are still like those of a toddler, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable. His personality is still very childish. According to psychological behavior, it should be due to excessive stimulation that causes psychological age stagnation.
It requires others to pay more care and attention, because the other person's heart is very fragile and it is also difficult to deal with.
I worry that I might say something too harsh and make the other person unhappy, but I also worry that if I don’t scold the other person seriously, I will never be able to wake him up…
Finally, I crossed out the entire sentence, making sure that the written words could not be seen after shining light through it. Finally, I decided to tear up the entire piece of paper and burn it all.
Worried that the other party would get stuck in a rut, I rewrote the letter in its most complete form, and then changed a part of the last sentence:
You should pay more attention to your health. You are indeed a young and intelligent scholar, but there are too many people on this path. I know you can walk your own path, but please slow down. If you walk too fast, you will fall. You are indeed a very good student and one of my favorite students, so please pay more attention to your health.
Those two bottles are medicines. You don't need to pay for them. It's like a benefit that teachers give to students. Don't tell others, understand? I will give you some of my old manuscripts. You can gain some experience from them. There is a spare key under the round stone under the carpet on the left side of my house. Please help me clean my house. It's a reward for the manuscripts.
Finally finished writing, this is equivalent to giving the other party some steps to step down. According to the price of the medicine I made by myself now, let alone next month, even if the other party gave me all the funds for completing this project, it would still not be enough...
Shaking his head, there was nothing much to say about this guy. Amelia was indeed very hardworking and a very, very good child, but due to psychological reasons, this child could not be regarded as a real adult who could make independent decisions...
After graduation, this is the only student I correspond with. Most of them come to see me directly or chat with me during breaks in class. There are no real required courses in my industry, so there are not that many students in the true sense. Many people just come to attend the class, and many people just come to listen and have fun.
Of course I know alchemy, but I can't possibly steal my best friend's work, right? The old lady who teaches alchemy is a very kind person, and she is a different person during class.
"Teacher, this is what we have for today. I don't quite understand..." Oh, it's time.
He asked the other person to sit on the chair next to him: "Let me see... the etiquette and speech training questions?"
"Right. For example, why is the invitation in this context full of hostility? I clearly remember the etiquette teacher saying that unless you are a very good friend, you can't invite anyone casually."
"Then let me tell you an anecdote, and you should know it. Once upon a time, there was a very powerful general in your hometown. That general's achievements were greater than his master's... You should understand what it means to be greater than his master's achievements?" He nodded, "Then the king invited the general to have a meal together, and ambushed an assassin at the table, and smashed the cup as a signal... Then the general died. Later, this anecdote became popular in your hometown, and this banquet was called the Hongmen Banquet."
I adapted a part of it myself and told it in a more understandable way: "So the other party didn't mean to invite you at all, right?"
"Very smart, Donoammon. The other party's invitation is malicious, and they may even want to get rid of you. It is best not to attend such a party, but you may encounter unexpected events, so you have to attend. You need to be fully prepared to attend a banquet with hostile people."
"Yeah, I see. What about this?"
"Ok?"
“Why do you need to clink glasses with other people who are toasting?”
"It may be a little early to tell you this now, but I think it's time to tell you. This is because someone will poison the wine. After you clink glasses, everyone's wine will be mixed together. If you or someone else poisons the wine, the whole glass of wine will be poisoned, and there is a high probability that you will all perish together, so no one will poison the wine."
"Oh... so that's what you mean!"
"Then there is this question. This question is about alchemy. Why do some elements react more strongly with each other?"
"Why use fire to hit water? Fire without water will do more damage?"
"Here is the table of elemental reaction theory. Because the damage caused by fire element hitting ice element is higher than that caused by ice element hitting fire element, elements will react to each other and there is also the issue of restraint relationship. In the table, it is impossible for an element to be the strongest or the weakest. Just like wind and rock, they don't react with other elements, but they will have their own reactions."
