0594 Chapter Thirteen The Death of the Yellow-throated Sloth Section 20
When looking around, Qu Yun discovered that the room behind her had become empty at some point. It was indeed a room similar to an elevator shaft, located in the middle of a perfectly circular platform. The fixed outer room was connected to the building above, while the inner layer could be raised and lowered.
The "elevator" stone chamber had already left quietly.
Qu Yun was slightly hesitant as to why Prime Minister Turtle would leave them here and leave. Even if the scene in front of her was enough to answer Qu Yun's question, it was also very disrespectful to leave the guests without permission. It wasn't until she noticed two figures on the edge of the platform that she finally understood.
"Are you a magician? No wonder. According to history books, this place is like a large library without books. It can be regarded as a holy place for magicians to learn."
The person speaking was Princess Rat Rabbit of Ili, with the Blue Snake Maid accompanying her.
"Can you tell me about your world?" Qu Yun walked to Princess Pika and sat down next to her with her knees crossed. Even in a sitting position, she is not much shorter than the upright Princess Pika, which is perfect for conversation. The petite Qu Yun
Rarely do you get the chance to experience something like this.
This time she did not mention "kingdom" or "castle" because she realized that the building above her head was not the city in the sky suspended above the earth, but the "earth" itself.
If she had just seen a huge building structure, she might have thought it was just part of a larger world. But now that she has seen the clouds under her feet and the endless deep space below the clouds, she is more inclined to think of this "castle"
"That's the whole world.
Will the world have an edge? Most creatures whose vision is limited to their own planet may not be able to answer this question. But Qu Yun, who has personally experienced being pushed out of the edge of the universe, understands this question very well.
Princess Rat Rabbit said politely: "The cross section is 130,000 square kilometers, and the vertical level is 589 floors. Our world is a city, a castle. The upper, lower, left, and right sides are parallel and basically flat in macroscopic view, which is approximately
A cuboid,"
Qu Yun was dumbfounded. Calculating, if the floors were completely spread out, the area of this "castle" would be wider than the Eurasian continent in the outside world.
"Don't wonder why I have such a concept. Our ancestors also lived on the earth, just like you, right? The secrets of the royal family say that it was a long, long time ago, and the universe has been so long.
It hasn't been born yet, that was a matter of the previous era.
Fragments of history books record that our ancestors chose to abandon the world they originally lived in in order to get rid of the apostles. Even today, we still know concepts like "castle" and "river", but no one knows about the original world, that so-called
What does the earth look like?"
Princess Rat Rabbit looked into the void, and Qu Yun discovered a trace of yearning. She then smiled: "Many people think that my father is not a good king, he is too kind. He often uses various excuses to grant amnesty to the world and relax laws, but rarely uses them.
capital punishment.
The people loved it for this reason, but the courtiers saw the hidden dangers of benevolent government. Without due restraint, lawbreakers and troublemakers flourished. In fact, the people's life was not necessarily better than that of the previous generation. The royal power did not oppress them, but it failed to do so.
Give them the protection they deserve.
He may not really be a qualified king, but to me, he will always be the best father in the world.
Do you know why you see me here? Because I come here every night. Since I was a child, my father would take me here to watch the sky every day, until he was seriously ill and couldn't leave the palace two years ago. Those things just now were all about it
Tell it to me. Can you imagine how slowly it tells the story? Hahaha...
Isn’t it ridiculous for a king who spends most of his time with his children? It should have never existed in your world, right?” Princess Pika smiled sweetly when she said this, as if she was recalling something sweet.
She smiled and turned to Qu Yun to look directly into her beautiful eyes that seemed to be able to intoxicate the human soul:
"My father likes to look at the sky most, but what's so good about the sky? It's light blue during the day, dark blue at night, and occasionally white clouds condensed by water vapor float by. There is no legendary bright sun that cannot be looked directly at, nor is there a sky full of darkness at night.
The stars. These are things that I have never seen in my life, no, our ancestors have never seen them for generations.
When I was a child, I didn't understand my father's thoughts. It wasn't until later that I heard that the world of you sages has a starry sky.
The starry sky means hope, and every star is an unknown world. When you look down at the starry sky below your feet, you will know that the world is very big, and there are too many things beyond that you have not yet understood.
Even if you may not be able to set foot on any of the stars in your life, having such an unknown will allow you to feel the meaning of your existence.
Go learn, explore, and develop. For the possibility that one day, thousands of years from now, your descendants can set foot on the distant sea of stars. The starry sky means the unknown, and the unknown is hope.
Our world is so big that no one has ever set foot on all the floors and rooms in his lifetime. But we know the boundaries of the world and the shape of every room on every floor. Everything about us is inside, and the sky is nothing.
a star.
Today, there is only one wall left in the world. 70% to 80% of the space has been occupied by inaccessible paradoxes. 5.94 million animals live here. My father does not want to see them, but chooses to turn his attention to them.
The sky outside. Because there is no future or hope in it.
Maybe it just wants to find a star.
Musician, you are right. All life is mortal, and none of us are eternal gods. Perhaps in a world without a future, longing for hope, survival is a kind of torture for my father. I think it is time for me to go to him
Farewell."
Regarding Princess Rat and Rabbit's awakening, even Qu Yun, who was joking about life, could not smile. She sighed softly and said: "Yes, it is necessary to say goodbye. Tomorrow night will be a good time."
When Princess Rat and Rabbit heard this, her semi-long and semi-circular ears that were between mice and rabbits twitched. She was not sure whether the musician's meaning was as terrible as she thought.
However, this deep and calm atmosphere was broken by two untimely screams.
Princess Rat Rabbit was clever again, and quickly and panicked she turned her head to Princess Blue Snake and Kang Sini who were not far behind her. Qu Yun, who had her back to them, raised her hands to rest her forehead. At such a close distance, she naturally clearly heard what she just heard.
what happened.
"Go back and get the antidote! There are only five minutes left! No animal poisoned by the blue snake can survive more than five minutes!" Princess Rat and Rabbit exclaimed.
