When everyone fell into thinking about the Goddess Cult and the Dark Moon War, Bingtis suddenly mentioned something that seemed irrelevant to the current topic: "Hey, what do you think of the big fool?"
"Stupid guy?" I was a little stunned for a moment, and then I replied indifferently, "A straightforward guy, he may have a genetic mutation compared to the locals, and he's a little rough, but his temper is quite to my liking. "
"Is it just like that?" Bingtis' eyes rolled slightly, and there was a flash of light in the blood-red pupils, "Suddenly I am a little curious about him."
I know that Bingtis is not the kind of people who have nothing to do... not the kind of nonsense... not the kind of random... Well, she is indeed an unreasonable person, but now she should not say unreasonable things, so I just mentioned it in my heart: " You don't think that the big man can have anything to do with conspiracies, do you? Do you feel something related to the artifact in him?"
"It's not an artifact, it's a detail," Bingtis reminded everyone, "You still remember when he was playing billiards just now, he put the white ball on the wooden stick at once? Do you think something is wrong?"
I thought it was something, and I shrugged when I heard the words: "You have great strength, you let Lin try it, let alone billiards, she can poke a hole in the earth with just one finger. The big fool kills the bear All it took was a fist, let alone a plastic ball."
"Pure brute force can indeed do a lot of things," Bingtis smiled inscrutablely, "but some details cannot be achieved by brute force. The billiard balls brought by Lin Xue are a set of earth goods. A billiard cue is a thin wooden stick. If you only have strength, can this blunt thin wooden stick pierce a smooth and hard ball? And more importantly: the white ball is pierced It didn't move much distance at all, it was pierced by a thin wooden rod in an instant, and no impact force was wasted."
I realized that this is equivalent to asking you to split a half-centimeter-thick thin wood board with your hands. I believe that many healthy adults can do it. At most, your hands will hurt after splitting. But what if I put a piece of tofu under this thin board
What if I want you to split the veneer without cracking or deforming the tofu underneath
What if I asked you not to make a sound when you split a plank, and not leave a single burr on the stubble
I believe that after making so many requests, it is definitely not the plank you want to split but me, but let’s not discuss this issue for the time being, what we are discussing is: If there is really a person who can do this easily or even unconsciously It's done, then at least how many years he needs to learn from those white-bearded old men under the cliff...
In all fairness, it is not difficult for any of us to pierce a plastic ball with a twig under the same circumstances. I guess from top to bottom in my home, even that heartless fox can pierce any ordinary plastic ball in the world with dried noodles. Substance: And the vermicelli can also be boiled. But the focus of the problem is: the big fool did it! In theory, a fool who has never learned any force control skills other than full strength has done it!
"The same thing can indeed be done by the standards of ordinary humans, but it requires years of training and precise grasp of strength. The strength of the stupid big man is more than a hundred times that of ordinary people, and the training he needs is even more amazing," Bing said. Tees said slowly, "And even if it can be done, there are two situations. One is to spend a long time there with a blushing neck and thick neck, poking a stick for fifteen minutes to succeed; The extreme control and explosiveness has reached the point of muscle memory. The big stupid belongs to the latter."
I thought about it, and felt a little confused: "He accidentally punctured the ball, so he must have a lot of trouble when eating, and this kind of person tends to tear himself apart when stretching..."
Bingtis glared at me: "No one will treat you as dumb for the few sentences you have." Then she analyzed slowly: "The big guy should be in contact with that thing for the first time, and he couldn't help but use some skills when he was nervous. , This also proves that he doesn't know what kind of "skill" he has, because any normal fighter will definitely not rise to the top when fighting against gas tanks: the stupid big ones belong to the shoulders When throwing the gas tank, he punched a rising dragon fist, the move was careless, but the move itself was sophisticated."
Qianqian rolled her eyes and thought for a while, then suddenly leaned forward excitedly: "Hey, do you think it will be like this? The stupid big guy is actually a legendary master with peerless martial arts, and he used to have a wife Accompanying him on the rivers and lakes, the two of them have a very deep relationship. His wife is good at gossip and dragon palms, and the stupid man is good at poking people's death points with chopsticks. Then one day the enemy came to his door, his wife fought hard to death, and the stupid man killed the enemy After holding his daughter-in-law in his arms, he burst into tears and lost his memory. He forgot his skills and his original name. He only knew that he was from the south and was going to the north to marry his new wife. He has been like this for several years Traveling around the world in a daze, only occasionally will he unknowingly reveal his peerless chopsticks skills. His daughter-in-law couldn't see it in the spirit of the sky, so she came to the world and was reincarnated as a little black cat. The silly big guy and the black cat hit it off right away. From then on, they depended on each other for life, and then they went to a place called Songlin Village. The stupid big man saw a small river in front of the village, and subconsciously remembered the romantic experience of swimming with his wife on the riverside with a millstone... In the next few years, they lived in Songlin Village. A group of strangers came, and the leader is called Chen Jun—Ah Jun, you're here!"
Not only was I stupid, but everyone around me was also stupid. We looked at Qianqian with the eyes of an epic little monster. Bingtis was the first to react. She grabbed Qianqian's hand and shook it vigorously: "Admiration to death!" Damn you, I've seen in my life that the brain makes up no sense, but I've never seen so many details in the case of no sense... "
"Don't make trouble, don't make trouble," I interrupted them with a wave of my hand, "In short, Bingtis, what you mean is that the idiot hides his secrets—then he should have nothing to do with the Dark Moon War and the Goddess Cult, right?"
Bingtis thought for a while and nodded vigorously: "Oh yes, let's continue talking about the Goddess Sect."
Everyone: "...cut."
But even though Bingtis exposed this topic in this way, the hidden side of the stupid big man still left a question mark in everyone's heart. How could a reckless man who wandered around since he was a child and didn't even know a few big characters get the kind of skills that a famous teacher could not necessarily obtain after years of hard training? This is probably an unsolved mystery—maybe there are really two sentences in the pile of nonsense that Qianqian brainstormed
It's just that this is not what everyone cares about right now. Probably when we find the whereabouts of the artifact and stay in this world for a few more days, we will find a way to uncover this secret. As for now, the stupid thing can only be let go. on the side.
We gathered the Bible and various things we inquired during the day and studied it for a long time. Halfway through, Pandora and Viska went to bed first (the biological clock tuned by the elder sister), leaving us to continue the discussion . Lin Xue summed up some things that even Bingtis didn't notice—I'm not sure whether she summed it up through the Goddess's teaching, or whether she used her own ability to directly observe the truth, and then picked up something that could be said to reveal it, Anyway, it sounds reasonable.
"The historical records before the first Dark Moon War are quite suspicious." The eldest lady picked the hard cover of the black barbecue-flavored Bible with her hands, her expression was very serious, "First of all, it seems that only the Goddess Canon is the only authority in this world As long as the church does not recognize the "historical documents", all things related to history are regarded as fallacies, or at least distorted history. In this Bible, there are only a few words about the world situation before the First Dark Moon War. Paragraph: How did the goddess create the world, what races were there in the world at that time, how did these races live in peace in the first kingdom of heaven, and how they finally fought. This is what happened before the first Dark Moon War The whole history. Don’t you think a lot of things are missing?”
"No details, right?" Bingtis has a quick mind, and she probably also vaguely noticed it, "It mentioned the names of the races and their countries during the Dark Moon War, but it didn't mention these countries at all. Where in the world are they distributed, and there is no mention of their relationship with each other: in this regard, they are all mentioned in the word "harmony". In addition, it is not mentioned how many people there were before the first Dark Moon War. The fact that races live in this world has been omitted even more, and there is only one sentence: Many races live on the earth, and some races died out after the war—there is not even a rough figure.”
"Ron's statement is that the war broke history," I gritted my teeth. "Of course this is what the church has always said."
Bingtis chuckled: "Well, maybe this is not all a lie. According to the scale of the first war, it is normal to have historical dating, but the 'abbreviation' on it is too obvious, and some of them can be clearly explained. I also deliberately didn’t mention anything about it, as if the purpose was to tell the public: Your history started from the first war, and everything before that is just a story, don’t care about it and don’t ask about it.”
Well, Bingtis summed it up well: purposeful. The things recorded in the Goddess Canon really have a very obvious purpose. The things after the first war are normal, but the things before the first war are obviously artificially modified into "stories". Sensitive details induce the public not to pursue the history before the war. This method is actually quite easy to understand. If I set up the historical background, characters, customs and culture and even the world map at that time when I tell you the story, then you will really think that this It is a historical fact, and people with obsessive-compulsive disorder will pursue the life stories of each character in this story and go to National Geographic, but if I give you a brief history as "It is said that there was a mountain once upon a time, and there was an old man on the mountain. "King", then you must have listened to it as a fairy tale. I guess no one in this world really studies the national regime and social contradictions in Snow White's era...
The religious classics issued by the Goddess Sect are doing such a thing: compiling the history of the world before the First War in the way of writing fairy tales, subtly diluting the existence of that period of history.
But we look at this religious classic from the perspective of an onlooker, so we can see at a glance the poor connection between its beginning chapters and subsequent chapters, but ordinary people in this world may not be able to see it. Of course, it is not ruled out that there are senior obsessive-compulsive disorder and religious reformers in this world. These two fearless creatures can definitely see the tricks in the Goddess's scriptures, and people from other worlds are not all fools—but I guess these smart people have already been judged by heresy Groups are buried in various parts of the world, so we will not discuss them.
Qianqian quickly lost interest in these convoluted things, she lay down on the table and yawned: "Just knowing these things may not be able to understand the origin of that goddess..."
"The church hid the truth of the first Dark Moon War, maybe it was to hide the true condition of the goddess," Bingtis snapped his fingers suddenly, "Have you noticed that this so-called goddess is restrained in her actions?"
Seeing our curious eyes, Bingtis continued to guide: "She can't completely kill the Dark Moon Monarch, and she can't completely wipe out the Dark Moon People. She can only temporarily close the Tiandi Bridge for hundreds of years, but she can't let the moon and the earth come together. Completely separated. There are two possibilities, either she did it on purpose: keep the dark moon people as a threat, so as to maintain the belief of the people on the ground. But this possibility is not great, because a group of demon troops are too controllable It’s bad, it’s far from being as simple and straightforward as natural disasters and man-made disasters. Moreover, the five consecutive Dark Moon Wars only drive away those demons, which will reduce the authority of the goddess. Some people bully the people of the concubine. The concubine has always directly driven out the enemy. Then there is only the second possibility: that "goddess" can't deal with the dark moon people at all. The so-called previous victories are just some kind of illusion, and the concubine even doubts That goddess needs to rely on the Dark Moon War to appear in front of the world... "
I looked at Bingtis with dazed eyes.
The female hooligan smiled slightly: "My concubine just thought of it: the so-called 'goddess' appeared for the first time in the Dark Moon War in recorded history, and she only appeared five times in total, at the end of each war. .Combined with the fact that she can only temporarily stop the dark moon invasion every time but does not completely repel it, and the various behaviors of the Goddess Sect deliberately downplaying the pre-war history in the classics... Maybe it was the first war that 'created' this As a goddess. Then the artifact we are looking for must have been touched by the locals for the first time during that war!"
Qianqian was talked about for a long time, and she was already sleepy at this time, she rubbed her eyes and looked at Bingtis: "Why do you all say that I have a big brain? Your diameter is not small..."
Sister Bing took this as a compliment, accepted it with a smile, and put away the Bible. The heavy rain outside was still pouring, she looked at the rain curtain outside through the straw pane, and stretched lightly: "Okay, let's continue tomorrow, the fastest louse has found the imperial capital, and now it is in the major libraries over there If you rummage through the boxes, you will have a clue within a day or two. I will go to bed first, and if the three of you are shameless, remember to open the door. I am pure and pure."
After saying this, the female hooligan Ji Liu ran away and disappeared, leaving me, Qianqian and Lin Xue staring at each other...
Of course I'm not ashamed to be "shameless" as Bingtis said-in fact, it's useless to be embarrassed, we know this is not a thing here. In short, it was a night of nothing to say, I slept until the next morning, and then...
He was awakened by a loud noise from outside.
It sounded like another outsider had come to the village. Some villagers were calling for people to invite the village chief and the priest out on the street. We heard an angry voice yelling outside the yard, which seemed to be saying "Assemble". What.
I tidied up and came to the yard, and saw that the others had woken up long ago. Lin Xue was squatting on the ground side by side with the black cat to wash his face, Bingtis looked up at the sun in a daze, and Pandora and Viska were leaning shoulder to shoulder on the courtyard wall. Watch what's going on outside. I greeted them one by one, and found that Qianqian was not there: "Where is Qianqian?"
"Come here!" Qianqian's bluffing voice came from outside the courtyard gate just as I finished speaking. When the first word "come" sounded, it seemed that I was still ten meters away. The girl was already standing in front of me. The big, silly figure came to the courtyard later, he seemed a little uneasy: "A few soldiers on horseback came outside and said they wanted to find the village chief."
"The old village chief really guessed it right," Qianqian jumped up and down in front of me to attract attention, so I had to focus all my eyes on her. "It's the recruiter from the northern fortress. Send out one-fifth of the strong men to the fortress to report, and prepare to start a war with An Yue. Ah Jun, shall we watch the excitement?"
"I know how to watch the fun!" After Lin Xue finished washing, she grabbed the little black cat next to her to wipe her hands, came over and tapped Qianqian's forehead, and then grabbed my arm, "Let's go, let's watch the fun... "
Everyone: "..."
At this time, quite a few villagers had gathered in the square of the village, about half of them came out to watch the excitement after hearing about the conscription, and the remaining half came out to watch the excitement without knowing about the conscription. The village chief, Coto, and the priest Ron, who seemed to be planning to take revenge on the society, had arrived at the scene and were negotiating with the recruiter.
Of course, I also saw the recruiter from the National Knights. There were only three of them, and they had dismounted and stood on the ground. The three of them were dressed basically the same: a half body armor that looked easy to move, and a battle robe with a sky blue background and a golden red sword emblem on the outside. The armor exposed on the chest was clean and bright, obviously after careful maintenance: this Explain that they are regular knights supported by the state. All three of them had long swords on their waists, and secondary weapons such as shields were hung on the horses beside them. Because these "recruiting officers" didn't wear helmets, I could see their appearance: standing in front of the old village chief was a stout man with a thick beard and hair, his skin was slightly darker, but he was definitely fairer than Ron. On the left of this person is a tall and thin young man. I noticed that this tall and thin man has pointed ears and a handsome appearance. He looks like he has elf blood, but he was born in the army after all. , even if he is a handsome elf, he will not be regarded as a male enemy like Ilson. The third person was a bit unexpected: she was a woman in her thirties with curly red hair. Although her military career had made her skin look rough, her appearance was not bad.
Overall, the image of this recruiter is a bit different from what I expected... RS
