Braving the wind and snow, everyone moved the stone slab at the door with some effort and entered the house. After closing the stone slab again, the sound of wind coming from outside suddenly became much quieter. This feeling of entering a safe shelter was enough to make the trek
Travelers in the wind and snow feel a sense of comfort.
The space in the house is not large, but because the furnishings are relatively simple, with only a stone table and a stone chair, even if a group of people squeeze in, there is no feeling of congestion. And surprisingly, although there are occasional
The snowflakes were carried by the wind and blew in through the gaps between the stone bricks, but the atmosphere inside the house was very warm, which could even be described as dry, because the snow on the floor of the stone house had been cleared away, and a square hole was dug out.
In the square fire pit, there are some red-hot charcoal that are releasing heat.
In addition, on the walls on both sides of the stone house, a simple rope buckle structure was used as a lamp stand, and a torch was hung on each one. Judging from the burning rosin at the end, it seemed that it had just been extinguished.
When Alice saw the fire bed and torches, she was immediately dumbfounded: "Ah? Are there people living in such a ghost place?"
Ringer shook his head: "It's probably not about living in them, it's just about maintaining and maintaining them."
It is impossible for the city government of Heidelbrosburg to have such a sense of responsibility, and they do not have the money to hire specialized personnel to protect these relics that have lost their economic value, so the young man first rejected this possibility. He looked at the hangings on the wall
He glanced at the extinguished torch and said: "Judging from this special rope buckle structure, there is no doubt that they are the Xia Tuo Tuo people. In the entire North Ashoka Mountain Belt, they are the only ones who can collect a kind of silver in the mountains.
The ferns are braided into ropes to make various simple tools or hunting traps.”
Before arriving in Alois, the young man had consulted a lot of information, so he knew everything about this kind of trite knowledge that ordinary people didn't care about.
"That's it." Alice didn't care how much effort the young man put in behind the scenes to answer every question she asked fluently. The golden-haired maid curled her lips and expressed disdain: "Then Xia Tuotuo is really kind-hearted, Shengtu
Mi has nothing to do with them, but he even has to take care of the few broken houses he left behind."
"I can't say it has nothing to do with it."
Xino smiled and answered the question on Linge's behalf: "If it hadn't been for Saint Tumi leaving a legend here, there wouldn't have been so many pilgrims and tourists coming one after another, and the Shatotto people wouldn't have been able to live as well as they did.
A good life. From this perspective, they have a close relationship."
Normal people should calm down when they get here, but Alice is still insisting: "That's all in the past. Do you see where there are tourists now? Don't the Xia Tuo Tuo people have to go back to the Snowy Mountains to make a living? Even if they
No matter how well the relics left by the saints are taken care of, can Saint Tumi still climb out of the grave and give them money?"
Do you believe that someone like you could be beaten ten times by my Saint Guards just by walking around the town of Regram?
Xino was speechless by her stubborn attitude, while Gloria next to her sarcastically said, "That means Xia Tuo is grateful for his kindness and repays his kindness. Are you right, Ai-chan?"
What do you mean by this? Am I, Ai-chan, ungrateful?
Alice raised her eyebrows and was about to commit the following crime and argue with the captain, but Ringer interrupted this meaningless argument in time. He took out a white shell from his arms, which he got from Rorona.
The borrowed alchemy tool [Kukai Shell] allows the user to store items no more than twenty cubic meters in its internal space. As long as the volume does not exceed the limit, no matter how complex the size, weight, or ingredients are, they can all be carried with them.
It can be regarded as one of the few inventions of Princess Haiqi that has practical value.
Ringer took out the daily necessities that the landlady had stuffed into shells before leaving the island one by one, while Saint Xalia was responsible for placing them into categories: small leaf lamps with cute shapes were hung on the wall to provide a perfect setting for the room in the wind and snow.
The dim stone house brings precious light. Because the candles made with fairy magic are burning in it, not only does it not have the grease smell of ordinary candles, it is even filled with a refreshing fragrance of jasmine, which makes people feel very special.
Comfortable.
A cabinet was placed in the corner, containing a kettle, tea cups and tea sets, as well as some daily necessities. The pens, notebooks and some important reference materials that Ringer had been using were placed on the stone table, where young people could easily access them.
; In the corner on the other side, the shepherd girl dropped a pea-like seed. The seed took root and sprouted instantly, sprouting branches and vines. The vines covered with green leaves were entangled together to form the shape of the bed.
The vines look soft and elastic, and it must be very comfortable to sleep on. This is also the alchemy tool prepared by Rorona: a portable single bed, which by the way, seems to have the effect of calming the mind.
In the end, Ringer even took out a very professional-looking astronomical telescope from the shell, which occupied almost half of the space in the house, forcing others to move a few steps toward the door. Alice watched the two people inside the house.
After busying themselves, the originally abandoned and simple stone house was suddenly transformed into a warm shelter in the snowstorm. I couldn't help but be stunned: "Do you mean you want to live here?"
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone looked at her with strange eyes, and Linger was even more speechless: "Didn't I tell you before we set off? During the next period of time, Saint Xia Liya and I will stay here
At the top of the mountain, we won’t be returning to Cloud Whale Sky Island for the time being.”
"Ah? Is there such a thing?" Alice was dumbfounded. When she set out, she had been thinking about snowball fights and treasure hunts in the snowy mountains. She had no time to listen to what Ringer said. Besides, what's the point of this?
Is it just because you and Xiaoxia want to live in a world of two that everyone should avoid you?
She spoke frankly. When Saint Xalia heard the words, she quietly glared at her and said, Ai-chan, don't talk nonsense, but she didn't actually mean to be angry, so Alice was not afraid at all and looked at Linge eagerly, waiting.
he explained.
The young man pointed to the astronomical telescope next to him and said, "Because I want to imitate the deeds of Saint Tomi, observe the sky on the top of the mountain, map the stars, and try to find the route that Saint Tomi used to cross the sea of stars."
"Oh, I understand, you want to switch to stargazer, right?" Alice looked convinced: "But can you stargazer? I remember you are not an expert in this field."
In fact, he should be called an astronomer, but Ringer was too lazy to correct this mistake and simply replied: "So I have learned a lot of astronomy knowledge during this period, and I still have a certain understanding, at least the most basic observations and calculations are not enough."
Question. Besides, Saint Shalia has learned the astrology of the Moryas, and she will stay and help me."
Saint Xalia nodded lightly and inadvertently raised her chest a little, indicating that I did not stay here just to accompany Ringer through the world of two people, as Alice said, but that I had something serious to do.
Alice looked at Ringer on the left, Saint Xalia on the right, and then at Xino and Gloria, who had indifferent expressions on their faces. Suddenly, a plan came to her mind, and she thought of a brilliant idea: "In this case, I hope
Isn't Nuo a top student in the mathematics department? How about asking her to help?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned for a moment. After the stunned expression, Ringer showed a thoughtful expression: "I didn't expect that you can occasionally make some reasonable suggestions, Alice."
After that, he looked at a certain girl knight who had not yet reacted and asked: "What's your opinion, Xino?"
"Me? If you really need my help, you can't ask for it, just..." Xino hesitated a little, looking at Saint Xia Liya secretly, and sure enough, he saw the shepherd girl's face darkened, with anger hidden in her eyebrows.
But it was not directed at Xino, but at a certain golden-haired maid who was very proud of her bad idea, and she suddenly smiled bitterly in her heart.
In fact, Xino also thinks that Alice's idea is completely unnecessary. Doesn't she know that her mathematical knowledge can be used? But the relationship between Saint Xalia and Ringer seems to be very complicated - it should be said that the relationship between the young queens and the queens is very complicated.
It's true that Ringer's relationships are all complicated. Xino has already seen through this fact in less than two months after arriving on the island.
Xino, who only wanted to defeat evil and defend justice, had no intention of getting involved in these complicated emotional conflicts, so she deliberately avoided it and kept silent. Unexpectedly, Alice, who was so smart, took the initiative to pierce the veil. This guy
What do you want to do? Just watching the fun is not a big deal, right?
But in fact, Alice didn't think so much at all. She didn't even notice the angry look in Saint Xialia's eyes with a hint of murderous intent. She just wanted to use the topic to achieve her own goal: "Since Xino can stay to help, then that's
No, can I stay too, dear Mr. Ringer?"
She rubbed her hands together excitedly, with an expectant expression on her face. She thought this was a very fun thing: sleeping on the top of a snowy mountain, watching the sky at night, and mapping the stars, isn't it fun enough? I love such fun things.
The sauce must be mixed in!
She may have equated this incident with a snowball fight.
Saint Xalia’s fist became hard: That’s it?
It seems that Ai-chan has been living too comfortably recently and needs to be severely re-educated.
But at the moment, business matters are more important, let her save her life first.
The shepherd girl took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then gave an answer without any personal grudges: "Xino can stay, she can really help a lot, but Alice can't, because she helps
Not too busy."
Well, the real reason is that Xino was involved after all, and she is still a biological sister, so she should be gentler. As for Alice? Haha, the re-education course at Tianxin Church is already on the way.
This was also Ringer's idea, so he nodded: "That's it, Xino, you can stay too."
Since both Ringer and Saint Xalia have passed this resolution, Xino will naturally not object: "I have no objection."
"I have an opinion!" Alice jumped out with an angry look on her face: "Why do you say I can't help? I, Alice, am the Grand Marshal of Sky Island, how can I allow you to look down upon me?"
Is there still such a position?
Lin Ge was expressionless: "Then you will be responsible for delivering food to us every day."
"Ah this!"
Alice thought about the mountainous road and wind and snow when she came here, and then thought about how she had to travel for an hour every day to deliver food to them. She immediately got scared, shrank her neck, and said with a smile: "Just kidding, actually I
Suddenly I remembered that my new game hasn’t been developed yet, so I’ll talk about helping later!”
Just adjust to the wind.
So the candidate who stayed behind was determined. Gloria knew early on that she could not help, so she did not humiliate herself like Alice. Of course, she had a better reason: as a captain, naturally
You want to stay on the ship and take charge of the overall situation. Have you ever heard of a captain who left the ship?
She just thinks this is very troublesome: "Mapping star maps must take a lot of time, right? When will our Zero Arus be able to set sail again?"
Linge replied: "Back then, Saint Tumi spent thirty-three months on his own to complete this great undertaking. Although we have many people now, we may not have his wisdom and experience in this matter.
, so conservatively it may take longer.”
Thirty-three months, that is, nearly three years? No matter how careful the preparation for the voyage is, it does not take this long. Moreover, if you don’t go to sea for three years, won’t everyone become slack because of this? What should I do with my revenge career?
?Captain Gloria, who had great ambitions, was a little anxious: "Isn't there a more efficient way?"
Lin Ge nodded: "Yes."
Oh? Really?
"What method?" the captain asked shamelessly.
Ringer explained: “After St. Tumi attained enlightenment on Mount Osor and founded the Spiritual Prayer Meeting, some devout believers came here to follow in the footsteps of the saint and found some of the manuscripts left by St. Tumis.
These included his observation records and calculation data of the starry sky. Those believers felt as if they had found a treasure after harvesting this part of the manuscript, and then decided to stay and study the saint's handwritings with concentration, comprehending the secrets. If they could cross the sea of stars like St. Tumi and get a glimpse of
The ultimate law of the universe, that would be even better. Those remaining believers would later become one of the branches of animism. If the manuscript of St. Thumi could be obtained from them, I think this matter would not be a problem.
Difficult."
In fact, Ringer originally wanted to obtain this manuscript through Olvera's royal power, but it seems that the manuscript only contained simple data and formulas without specific theoretical support, so it was not judged by the [Library of Truth]
Knowledge cannot be found.
The young man paused for a moment and then said: "After the promulgation of the "Religious Decree", there were rumors that the sect had fled overseas during the disaster. Some people said that they had not left, but were hiding in the Eastern Alps Mountains to avoid the sect.
It's just a joint persecution. In fact, before leaving the sky island, I had already asked Miss Neville and Miss Siesta to ask them to inquire more about the aliens living here when inspecting the surrounding environment. It is best to communicate with this person.
We need to get in touch with the sect to show our sincerity. But for now, the hope is not very high."
Although Ringer said there was little hope, his words still gave everyone some confidence. At least the young man had arranged everything, and the rest was left to luck. Alice was very confident, and she thought her
Luck is always good. For example, when playing games, you can always find hidden props before death. Isn't this the best proof?
What, you said it should be understood from another angle, but actually he died after finding the hidden item?
Drag him down and behead him. The crime is for offending the Commander-in-Chief of Sky Island. He deserves to be punished!
anyway.
"You have always been in that sect," Alice asked curiously, "So what is its name?"
Lin Ge thought for a while, and in the eyes of others who were equally curious, he slowly spit out an answer——
