(I finally moved all the household items here, so I can live in my new home with peace of mind, and my life will finally be a little more regular in the future... After three months of tossing, I didn't expect that there would be a lot of troubles after the renovation. These two days are really troublesome. In other words, do you want to take a long vacation to adjust and adjust...)
Due to the problem of life forms, Lilina's sensitivity to the living environment is very sensitive, second only to Ding Dong, but her resistance to abnormal life environments is much weaker than Ding Dong's, so facing this empty phantom village, and the spread of the entire Lilina felt very uncomfortable when seeing the huge plants on the planet. This feeling is something that others cannot empathize with. It is roughly equivalent to the unbearable sense of disobedience. The streaking Billy Herrington is like running over in front of your eyes: Although there is no harm, I never believe that anyone can face this situation safely...
In contrast, Ding Dong is much more indifferent. She is a genuine and highly professional goddess of life. Any abnormal life environment in the mortal world has zero influence on her. In fact, Ding Dong has been around since we came to the center of the earth. I got bored into my pocket and couldn't come out, because she felt that the huge plant on the small planet in the center of the earth was a lazy guy. Even if I communicated, I couldn't "speak" complete words. I could feel the little one in my chest pocket The inside moved slightly, which meant that she was not asleep. I opened the pocket and took a look. It turned out that this guy was curled up inside and playing with the flower rope. The flower rope was made of thin thread used for sewing clothes at home. In half an hour, this guy can bundle himself into rice dumplings.
Lilina arched on me for a long time. Humming and chirping. Strange to say. This guy is obviously a full-fledged royal sister in his bones. The sum of his life experience before and after is more than my sister and I multiplied by two. I can still remember the shrewd planning when I rushed forward boldly, but since she was reborn and changed into such an immortal demigod loli body, Lilina seems to have completely cut off from the world of normal people. She even forgot that she was an adult, and she became more and more skillful at acting cute and snatching toys from the children at home. Sneaking into the kitchen with Little Bubbles to steal cakes—sometimes with Sandora, enjoying the daily life that couldn’t possibly be interesting at her mental age. I also asked if she I broke my stomach. In the end, this girl gave her a big bite, and then she continued to go her own way.
However, I have always regarded Lilina's convulsions as normal behavior. This guy is not normal, so she can do whatever she likes. Anyway, taking care of a younger sister who has frequent problems is not a big pressure on me: Although she is an older sister in theory older generation.
After tossing around like no one else for a few minutes, Lilina finally gave up and canceled her demigod posture, changing from an elf loli to a human loli, which would make her feel more comfortable. The middle-aged elf was holding a drink and a cut After Guopan came down from the second floor, he was obviously very surprised: he couldn't figure out why a well-behaved compatriot suddenly became an outsider.
"It's just a form switch. Everyone in Lieyantian..." Lilina was about to talk nonsense, but she was beaten by her sister before changing her words, "Anyway, it's my special skill."
"We just came here, and we are not very familiar with the situation here." My sister looked at the drinks and fruits brought by the middle-aged man with some perplexity. She didn't know how to deal with them, so she simply changed the topic first, "You guys Have you been living in this star...world?"
"Of course, Oasis is the hometown of tree elves," the middle-aged man showed a proud look. "It is because of the protection of the oasis star that the tree elves can be safe and sound in the scorching of the flames. But even so, we are still very interested in the situation in the flames. You must know that we have a legend here. It is said that from The people who come down from the flames will be invaders. They will drive the big ship to snatch the treasures of the ancestors. And they will burn the world to ashes, so we will be quite nervous when we see strangers wearing alien clothes. I was scared by the stories I was used to. At first I thought you were enemies, but you are really different from the legends: there are no big ships, no murder and arson, and you look very friendly, not like enemies. In fact, the people on the ground have From time to time, I also study the Raging Flame Sky, using a very long telescope, but there are clouds and sky walls, and the largest telescope can only see some burning rivers, not even houses, so until now people don’t believe in the Raging Flame Sky It's a fairy tale, and now people think it should be another land, and for some reason, it's just a fire."
Everyone was calm on the surface, but they quickly discussed in the spiritual connection and reached a consensus: the invaders he mentioned may be the fallen apostles who frantically hunted down the family members after the fall of the old empire. Looting the treasures of the ancestors probably means that the fallen apostles will drive warships to break through the armor and formation of the green star to plunder this small planet in the center of the earth. In this way, the legend of their ancestors must come from the era of the old empire: these Are people the descendants of the imperial families of the past
I suddenly found that everything in front of me was not very logical, and the focus of these senses of incongruity was that everything here was a quality projection, but they themselves did not know this.
If their bodies are the bodies in the dormant cabins on the mantle, then they should be survivors after the disaster happened tens of thousands of years ago, continuing to live in the center of the earth in the form of souls, but they don't know anything about it.
If they are the descendants of the survivors, they have no way of knowing about their ancestors, and only know some incomplete legends, that is even more wrong: how does the mass projection reproduce
They are just projections!
The middle-aged man brought some drinks and fruits. The drinks looked like some kind of diluted plant juice, with a light yellow-green color, and a sweet and earthy smell. The fruits were unrecognizable and had been cut It has become a uniform rectangular block, maybe it is just a small part of a huge fruit: all the plants here are too big, and it must be the same feeling as we are now when Dingdang gnawed on an apple. I worry about these things to eat and drink. Sandora was right. The quality projections here really have too many unnecessary details, including the smell, but they look so real, can they really be used by us in the real world? Of course it is impossible. Only Tavel here can easily drink this kind of thing. She can directly decompose the drink into discrete information clusters and store them in the body. It can also increase the density of her own projection, although only a little. But when I tried it, I found that the cup turned into a phantom in my hand: a certain projection device had a bug when processing this kind of unplanned information interaction. Fortunately, I responded quickly. Put the cup back before the information collapse expanded.
"It seems that you are not used to the things on the oasis," the middle-aged man smiled kindly, "The flames are burning in the sky, there must be no such sap."
"Speaking of it. What's going on in your legend about Lieyantian?" My sister thought for a while, and asked cryptically, "We live in the mantle... I mean behind the sea of fire, there is no flame there. Before today, we didn't have any flames." Knowing that there is such a planet on the other side of the sea of fire."
My sister wants to use this question to understand the worldview of these elves. This is the first thing to do to understand a strange and strange race. The other party obviously understands what is called a planet: the size of the small celestial body in the core of the earth is really small, and there is no ocean. As a natural moat, the aborigines here should be able to easily realize that the land they live on is actually a sphere.
The middle-aged people do not doubt him, anyway, these legends are familiar to children in his world: "At the beginning of the legend, there was no Lieyantian. There was no oasis. Everything was dark and scorching. It is spherical in shape. Later, the ancestors came to this darkness from another place, and a catastrophe occurred in the world they came from, so they wanted to create a safe habitat for their descendants, so the ancestors emptied the center of the world and created a Space, the remnants of the old world are piled up on the shell of this space. Burning blazingly, it becomes a flaming sky, and then the ancestors put the oasis in the center of the world, so that future generations can live in peace, and finally. The origin of the ancestors and the oasis merged into one , has become the land under our feet. The great patriarch is a member of the ancestors. Every once in a while, the ancestors will wake up a person, become a new great patriarch, lead our life, and the original great patriarch will return to the earth to continue deep sleep."
"What about before this world appeared? Where did your ancestors come from?" I think this question is very important. It is related to whether they know the existence of the green star, but unfortunately, the other party shook his head : "The outside of Lieyantian is the outside, we don't know where it is, anyway, the shell of Lieyantian and the world can block all dangers, we don't need to take the risk of cutting through the sea of flames. You came in from behind Lieyantian, don't you You don't know what kind of world that is?"
It seems that these elves don't know the existence of the green star. Their knowledge of the world is limited to the burning mantle above their heads, and then there are various myths and stories.
"By the way, aren't you curious about the world opposite Lieyantian? You see, we are standing here, and we came from the outside," my sister said with a smile, "Actually, the outside is already safe..."
The middle-aged man fell silent strangely, not just silent, as if the expression on his face was completely frozen, as if the projection that had lost the signal source was still on the last frame of the picture, and it took a few seconds for him to resume his reaction , Said lightly: "Can't go out, can't go out, there's no need to go out."
After finishing this endless sentence, he seemed to have something to say, but suddenly a girl's voice from outside the door interrupted him: "Dad... Are there any guests at home today?"
The tapestry woven with plant fibers at the door shook suddenly, and then a girl in a green dress with a white background and long hair shawl flashed in. The other party came to the hall lightly, and was a little dazed after seeing us.
This face... very familiar!
"It's the girl I saw above," my sister was the first to think of it, and said in the spiritual link, "In the dormant cabin, I was hit by Lilina in the face..." Lilina's voice interjected: "Don't say Okay! Isn’t it just landing with your face! Lin still lands with her mouth every time, why no one said that!”
Looking at the green-haired girl with doubts and a simple smile, I felt dizzy for a while. Many previous conjectures seemed to collapse after this girl appeared, and turned into an even more chaotic ball of threads after a burst of embarrassing tumbling.
Quality projection here. Their bodies are really those shells buried in the mantle layer? So why do these mass projections know nothing about the green star thing? Is that middle-aged man lying to us? Or is it that the shell on the mantle is not the original owner of the green star. They were sent in after the oasis in the center of the earth was established, and the original owner of the green star made up lies for them? So is my previous conjecture about the "biological laboratory" correct
"This is my daughter, Lue," the middle-aged man stood up and introduced, with a proud look on his face, "She is learning knowledge from the chief patriarch, and she is back, which means that the chief patriarch is free."
"Ah? A guest of the chief patriarch?" Lue suddenly looked very pleasantly surprised, "That must be a very important friend, the chief of the patriarch said that he had guests to entertain, so he asked me to come back early today... Then I will take them there. "
The middle-aged man nodded in agreement. Then Lue ran to the door like a gust of wind, and waved to us: "Come on! The chief patriarch is in the tree house not far away, she is kind!"
After saying this, the girl disappeared behind the tapestry on her own. Leave us staring.
The middle-aged man smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, my daughter is a little rude, she is a lively child, and she has caused me trouble a lot."
We didn't care, a large group of people went out and found the green-haired girl who was waiting at the door. The other party looked at us curiously, and then turned around and led the way without asking any questions, always looking very happy. Sandora complained in the spiritual link: "It seems that these elves are more innocent than one, cautious, but easy to deceive."
I nodded: "That's right. Let Lilina go there, and the country will perish in half a year."
Lilina immediately jumped up and down and tried to bite, but every time I hit her back with the hand knife, the crackling sound of the hand knife touching the forehead made all the way, causing Lue to turn her head frequently.
The place where the patriarch stayed was not in the village, but outside the mushroom wall, there was a special wooden house: it was not taken out of the mushroom, but a two-story house built with wood chips and fibers. Small enough that it took us only a few minutes to walk there. Qianqian finally couldn't restrain her curiosity when she was about to knock on the door. Said to Lue: "Hey, how did you get born?"
She probably wanted to know if Lue understood her identity as a quality projection, but her words were distorted like this, but it’s okay, it’s so wrong that it won’t arouse suspicion: people in this world don’t know what quality is projection.
"Born?" The green-haired girl looked confused. "Of course Dad picked it from the tree. Isn't that how tree elves are born? That's right. Why are your ears so strange?"
I didn't answer the other party, but just looked at my chest pocket silently. Ding Dong had already tied himself into a ball of thread inside. It must have been tossing for a long time, and now he has fallen asleep in a daze. This little thing was also taken from a plant. She plucked it from the ground—and what's even more amazing is that she can replant herself and pick it again in two years!
We wanted to ask more about the "Tree Elf", but we were worried about arousing the other party's suspicion, so we temporarily suppressed the doubts in our hearts. Lue is a very lively girl, and she doesn't seem to have any intentions. The strange question did not mean the slightest displeasure.
It's completely different from the other one: the one lying in the hibernation cabin, lifeless.
Soon we saw the so-called chief patriarch, who was an elderly female tree elf, wearing ordinary gray clothes, looking at her face when she was young, she might have been as beautiful as a green calyx, but now she is A calm and kindly old lady, her stature is not tall, her gray-green hair is meticulously combed into a bun behind her head, sitting behind a thick wooden table and flipping through a book, as if An old teacher of the older generation, she seemed to have known about our arrival in advance, without any surprise, she told Lue to go home first, then got up to give up her seat for the guests, she didn't speak much, but she was very kind.
The space in the cabin was originally quite large. After all, there were no extra rooms on the first floor. The hall was the entrance, with multi-grid shelves on one side and a dark fireplace on the other. The narrow stairs, above should be the resting place of the patriarch. Therefore, the first floor of the wooden house should be very spacious, but in fact there is not much free space here, all kinds of strange sundries are piled up in the open space, there are lifelike animal carvings, plant relief boards, and alchemist-like Using bottles and cans, it seems that the patriarch also has a lot of hobbies in his spare time.
"I heard that there are guests, brought by the little girl Clover," the chief patriarch said slowly, with the calmness and calmness that an old man of this age should have: she seems to have passed what needs to be done. In the age of urgency, everything is arranged and processed slowly. From this point of view, these aborigines who call themselves tree elves—or the projections of aborigines are still very close to the mental patterns of people on earth. , Of course, it seems that some are too simple, which may be related to the closed living environment, "You came down from the sky of flames, but you didn't bring flames and weapons."
"You think Lieyantian is a very dangerous place, so anything that comes down from there is dangerous." Lin Xue said casually, and then began to curiously study the reliefs placed in a pile on the ground.
The chief patriarch looked at us for a while, his quiet eyes showed neither hostility nor friendliness, he just stared quietly, as if he wanted to see what we were thinking, Qianqian also became interested, and talked with the chief patriarch The four eyes stared at each other, she is not afraid of eye contact, she will grasp the time, so almost instantly, the chief patriarch rubbed his eyes and retreated, and squatted on the ground with Lilina looking for Ant, the patriarch looked at Qianqian in all kinds of confusion, and finally she shook her head: "You should not be enemies, otherwise the oasis will call the police, and Lieyantian will collapse, but now I can't say anything more—in Let’s stay in the village for a few days, the people in the oasis are still very hospitable. Then maybe I will be able to determine what your arrival means.”
Stay for a few days... Where can I find that leisure time! (to be continued) RQ
