Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1739 Queen of Hell (ten)

  If there is a city person who has nothing to do, ask a countryman who came to Paris from a province, what is the most proud thing in your life, they will not pay attention to him.

When the people in the city watched the pastoral love and yearned for the pastoral life, those who came from the “pastoral” tried to take root in the city. The pragmatic nature of the rural people made them pay more attention to some more practical things. There is that Time to chat is not as good as selling more things, saving more money to buy a house in the city, and ending the wandering life sooner. Just like the boatman carrying a philosopher across the river, he may not know what philosophy and mathematics are, but he can swim, and he was still in the boat when a huge wave knocked the philosopher in the river, so he could leisurely Discuss "the value of life" with a philosopher who can't swim.

   In "The Great Gatsby", my father once said this sentence: When you want to criticize others, you must know that not everyone has your favorable conditions.

Half a century ago, when Giles Corey first came to the New World, he was a poor pauper. He stole things when he was not guarding the warehouse, and when it was his turn to guard things, he stole things, lied in court, and had **** with men. Teachers fight and have been prosecuted many times for fighting and disrupting order. In 1676, he beat a thief severely with a stick, and then pretended that the young man fell down by himself. The thief died of his injuries a few days later.

   Giles also pulls out fences to scare horses, makes things difficult like Sarah Goode when selling things, and even his son-in-law who married his daughter resents the father-in-law.

However, it was such a person who changed from a poor ghost with nothing to a head in Salem, and even became a member of the Salem Church in 1691. Someone mentioned his paragraph at the beginning of his membership. Notorious history.

   Again, when you want to criticize others, you must know that not everyone has your favorable conditions. People are like this. I hope that my public image will remain glamorous. Establishing connections with celebrities and ethical people will make bystanders feel that they are tall. Becoming a church member like Corey will make people feel like a fly. In the good milk, it is not poisonous, but it looks disgusting. A good cup of milk suddenly drops in price, making people lose the desire to drink it.

  People who used unclean methods to get up in the past often hope to wash themselves, even if the pure water used to "baptize" them will become dirty because of him, he will not hesitate.

But even people like Giles Corey can only recognize the girls cursed by witches in Salem Village. His character has met many enemies, and he is a bad neighbor who loves to argue. It happens to be a bad neighbor. He has only daughters and no sons, and the sons-in-laws are eyeing the wealth that their old father-in-law has accumulated through various means.

People are good at being deceived, and horses are good at being ridden, but at that time Salem had to face being deceived even if it was a bad horse. Giles did not distinguish with her like Osborne’s Irish husband. Boundary, so he also stood in the dock.

There were 25 people accused of witchcraft in April, five times the number in March, and the target is no longer limited to women. In addition to Giles Corey, Tituba’s Indian husband John has also become suspected. Objects, they are all suspected because of their spouses. During the trial in court, Giles’ 25-year-old son-in-law claimed that his father-in-law had cursed his orchard this year would be a big fire, if not next year, it would burn, in short, the fruit tree would not grow fruit.

  Fifteen years ago, a fire broke out on the roof of Proctor’s house, and Corey was also considered to be the culprit, but John Proctor did not accuse him of arson, but said that he used "devil's hand" to ignite it.

John Proctor’s wife was previously accused by the girls of being a witch in the public. If John Proctor didn’t leave herself as a plaintiff, Elizabeth was found guilty, and he himself might stand like Giles Corey. In the dock.

   Giles scolded John Proctor for slandering, and then many old grudges surfaced. Corey did his best to shirk those accusations. He denied that he had signed a contract with the devil and had not been tempted in his life.

  Because of the fear of this grumpy old man using force, Giles' hands were tied up, and he could only growl like a tied cougar.

He didn't explain how the green ointment came from Martha Corey, but he could only say that the ointment was given by his neighbors who saw him as a "damn, demonic rascal", and the neighbors accused him of being in his cowshed. In a panic, when Hassan asked him "what makes you frightened" he can only answer "I have never been afraid in my life".

  People like John Indian who have watched witchcraft accusations up close have come to understand that it is much safer to be a victim before anyone mentions their name than to be a defendant. The wizard can be a man, a woman, a beggar, an official church member and an outsider, so when Paris preached on April 10, John Indian was "two The ghost" attacked.

  One of these two ghosts is Sarah Croyce, the sister of Rebecca Nath.

  She lived a harder life than her sister. In the early years, her first husband Dan was attacked by Indians. As a widow, she raised five children by herself, and later married Crois.

  Sarah didn’t understand the rules at the time. She actually argued with John Indian about "Why did you harm me?" Even a dog who warmed his owner's feet under the table in the chapel knew that it was dangerous to do so.

  In the past, Giles Corey splashed a basin of dirty water on each other when he was fighting with the male teacher. This method was effective, but John Indian, who was supposed to be standing in the dock like Corey, shouldn’t become a plaintiff?

  This is no longer a trial, but a large-scale stage performance, and all kinds of people want to act.

  The beautiful and peaceful pastoral era has passed. The sheriff will drink in the tavern like the troubled drunks. This is a management method that takes care of work.

  After the witch trial began, these sheriffs had a new job, which was to catch witches and wizards. Because the accusations continued to spread to the edge of the town, they had less time to stay in the tavern.

  The priest’s niece, Abigail Wilmes, also often appeared at the entrance of the tavern, and she and her ladies also used the tavern as a gathering place.

  Judge Hassan has never quarantined these girls or interrogated them alone, nor has he tried to provide evidence scientifically. Instead, he sent a sheriff to arrest, interrogate, and detain them. If there was a rational and savvy judge in Salem at that time, unlike Hassan who one-sidedly listened to the testimony of the "victims" and glorified the suffering of the teenagers, or the pastors called "demonology" and the way of distinguishing the devil, it would So many children will lose their parents.

  The women accused by the girls are almost all the mothers of their children. I don’t know if the girls have ever thought about how children who are younger than them will live without their mothers.

  Little Ann Putnam is the eldest daughter. After she has younger siblings, her mother no longer focuses on her.

  Furthermore, she also guarded the mausoleum for her dying younger siblings one after another, and her mother who became pregnant again had no energy to pay attention to her mood.

  Maybe when they grow up a little bit and become the mother of their children, they will understand that they will apologize to the victims accused by her, but why should the victims forgive her for the sake of her peace of mind?

  Don’t treat the unforgivable as a trifle, because it is unforgivable.

  But before that, they were a group of naive children, just excited to receive attention.

  This is the carnival of witches and demons, and this is just the beginning.
