Chapter 230: The Axe Seal on the Statue
"Mental power! We need to recover our mental strength!" After a period of silence, Peake finally found a breakthrough point, and he said excitedly: "I thought about what caused our situation! It is because our mental power is exhausted! It must be so! As long as we recover our mental strength, we will definitely be able to return to our previous state, and when the time comes, when Haysjia and I enter the cave room...... You can reach out your mental power tentacles and go outside for a while......"
"Hehehe......" Zhu Tian smiled bitterly, "Pique, I really don't know whether to call you naΓ―ve or stupid, not to mention whether we can recover our spiritual power in the end, have you ever thought about it, since we have even fused our souls together, is it more likely that our spiritual power has also fused together?"
"I don't know......" Peake hugged his head. He's always been an optimist and likes to keep everything simple. "There's always a way! there's always a way!"
"Don't think it's useless, this situation can only be taken one step at a time, I can temporarily admit that you are in charge of the body, but the premise is that you have to help me find Emma!"
Retrieving Emma...... In fact, Pique doesn't know if Emma is dead, and when the Timberwolves killed Emma, his mental power had collapsed and he was in a coma. Later, when he woke up, he found himself crazy and went looking for Emma, found the old priest, and asked where Emma was. At the time, Pique didn't know exactly what was going on...... It wasn't until he was in a daze in the back garden of the church that he overheard the sound of Pastor Illin Fat and other pastors discussing. They were indeed discussing the killing of Emma by the Timberwolves...... This is how Pique deduces what happened to Emma...... And the fat pastor Ilin, who was discussing Emma, also paid the price of a front tooth, at that time, Peake did feel that he was controlling his body, but his sudden flying punch ......
Now, he finally understood how his body had changed.
So, should I accept it? And how should I accept it? He was confused.
Ever since he discovered the existence of another soul in his body as a child, he has been telling himself to accept and adapt...... It wasn't until twenty years had passed that he got used to Zhu Tian's existence.
And now, all of a sudden, this new state, a new relationship......
"Peake, look what Aunt Eckfield bought you!" the kind voice came in before the man could enter.
As soon as the sound came in, the wooden door was quickly pushed open. "Poor little one, have you woken up?" she whispered, as she walked in with something in her hand.
It's chicken broth, Peake smells. Then, he saw her carefully placing the pot of chicken soup on the table, singing a cheerful tune: "Two chicken legs in the pot, two pieces of corn in the pot, two carrots in the pot......" After a while, her nose sniffed, and her face showed a look of satisfaction. "The soup is ready! Little Peake, get up!"
Peake sniffed as well, and then saw Aunt Eckfield pick up the clay bowl and start serving the soup. "I've wanted to make you the chicken soup you like to drink, but you just woke up at noon, and I'm afraid that you won't be in a coma for too long, so I simply boiled rice porridge for you, and now it's okay, we can eat chicken soup." β
Aunt Eckfield...... She remembered it, and Peake sighed. I remember when I was a child, Zhu Tian and her son Dormond Jr. lost both, and finally after being found by Aunt Eckfield in the alley, she poured a bowl of chicken soup on the two of them......
He remembered that it was Zhu Tian who was controlling his body at that time, and Aunt Ekfei was stewing soup, and he was directing beside him: "Don't just put chicken, put two pieces of corn, it's not enough to put corn alone, and put two carrots ......" Finally, the chicken soup was made, and Zhu Tian called it: "Messy stew." "Stew is not an ordinary delicacy, so much so that he will beat little Dormond or be beaten by little Dormond when he has nothing to do, so that he can come to Aunt Eckfield's house for a bowl of stew.
"Your messy stew, you eat. Peake said.
"You eat and I eat, and whoever eats is the same. Zhu Tian said.
"Peake, don't talk to yourself, it's a mess!" Aunt Ekfield brought a large bowl of chicken soup to Peake.
Sure enough, there are a lot of chicken legs, corn, and carrots......
......
......
At noon the next day, Peake struggled to get out of bed. After eating a bowl of rice porridge from Aunt Ekfi, he said goodbye to her.
His injuries were still severe, and almost all of them were concentrated in his upper body, and his arms, shoulders, back, and chest were tied with circles of gauze. On the leg, there was only one scratch...... So, he was still able to take a few steps out the door with difficulty.
Naturally, Aunt Exfy offered to send him.
He walked very slowly, and inevitably met his neighbors in the alleys and on the side of the street.
"I remember last month or two months ago, isn't this kid so virtuous, why hasn't his wounds healed yet? Is it a cripple?"
"Fuck off, boy from the Tulu family, if you dare to say something unpleasant, I promise to hang you up and beat you!"
How familiar such a scene is. He thought that he was seriously injured by the Pisa Dispatch before, and it was Aunt Eckfield who rescued him, and it was Aunt Eckfield who sent him home. It is also Aunt Eckfield who defends herself.
It's just that of course it's unbearably hot, and now the autumn breeze is pleasant.
Finally, the noise of the street disappeared, and the two men came to the door of the lumberyard.
Saying goodbye to Aunt Exffee, Peake pushed the door in.
A lumberyard full of timber, a familiar donkey shed, a familiar house...... It's just that the sound of striking iron came from the production room.
Isn't it just the cacophony of "jingle bell" and "ding bell" coming from the production room. Vic endured the pain in his body, and instead of going back to the house to rest, he walked to the production room in the corner of the courtyard.
It was a six-foot-tall statue, all the color of brass, holding a bronze aristocratic cane, wearing a delicate, close-fitting tuxedo, and he had a rather handsome face, the outline of which seemed to be carefully carved by the god of light. Well...... To be exact, it wasn't engraved by the God of Light, it was engraved by Pique!
Yes, this statue is Pique's work from months ago.
Yaker Haijvi, that should be the name. He remembered that somewhere in the statue there was his inscription - Pique had made it in the summer of 256 in the kingdom of Yakel.
Only at this point, why did Ryder stand on a ladder and hammer and awl and pound on the statue's head?
At this time, Ryder suddenly stopped what he was doing.
He clearly saw Pique's arrival.
"You're here Peake, I'm a little busy here, please forgive me for not going to church to see you these days, oh! No, I actually went to the church yesterday to look for you, but I don't know why, the gatekeeper just kicked me out, and he said that you had left, so I sent a ghost to Aunt Eckfield's house, and when I saw it, didn't you lie there and sleep...... Hahaha...... How's it going, are your injuries better? I'm mostly healed, and the bandages on my head are so uncomfortable that they itch me to death. β
Hearing this, Pique's heart warmed. "Hmm...... Too good to be true. β
"By the way, you asked me to go to the southern plains to find your noble cane, but I searched for a whole day to find it...... But I didn't see the corpse of the silver timberwolf you said, are you lying to me, Peake...... I suspect you didn't tell me anything about the meteorite rain in Josson, and you didn't tell me what was going on, and I'm not your good brother anymore. A few days ago, I saw that you were recuperating in the church, and you were really weak, and I didn't rush to ask you, so you should say it. As he spoke, he began to pound in his hands.
If he mentions Emma, will Zhu Tian go crazy...... The day before Emma's death, she had braved the rain to fetch medicine for Ryder in Joson City, how would he feel if he had known about it?
"Didn't you always want to hear about the elevated crash? I can tell you about the elevated crash first!" Peake tried to change the subject.
"Elevated crash? The whole Peace Town has been discussing this matter these days, and I already know all about it! You and Emma are really majestic! You and Emma are really majestic! You can give us Yodelman a long face! Oh no! It should be said that Zhu Tian and Emma are really majestic! But I heard that Zhu Tian scared Emma stupid, that little stupid girl...... Hahahaha kind of funny!...... Pique...... What are you kicking me up the ladder for?" Ryder lay on the ground, looked at the strange alien eyes, and swallowed a mouthful of spit. "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"
"I see that you are very unhappy to laugh......" This is Zhu Tian's voice.
Ryder fell to the ground in pain, scratching the bandages on his head, and he wondered, "Zhu Tian, what are you crazy about?"
"I'm Pique, well, I'm Zhu Tian too. "It's Pique's voice.
"What's going on? Peake, are you crazy?"
"I ...... I'm really going crazy......" Peake was stunned for a moment and pulled Ryder up from the ground, "The situation is a bit special now, I'm controlling my body with Zhu Tian." β
"Controlling the body together, haven't you always been like this?" Ryder wondered.
"It's a bit complicated, it's not the same control as before, in other words, I can immediately become Zhu Tian, and I can also transform into Pique, it's just not like before...... Alas, I can't tell!"
Ryder was confused by what he said, his brain was not bright, where could he react at this time, he didn't bother to think about it. I saw him straighten the ladder, climb it again, and go to the statue and knock on it.
"What are you doing, Ryder? Didn't I sculpt this statue before?" Peake wondered.
"Yes, it was carved by you before, but it was returned, you see here, there is a big pit. He pointed to the statue's head and said, "The servant of the mayor's house said that there was a horse thief named Bafant, who was cut alive with an axe, so he moved here and let us repair it, but you are not at home, and my grandfather can't do the heavy work, so I have to do it, and in the past two days, I have thought of countless ways to fill these two holes." Alas...... This statue is all made of brass, I don't know how you carved it at the time, it's not a human job! You see, there's a pit here. He gestured to the statue's waist, where it was clear that there was also the mark of the gravitational slash of the axe.
Peake couldn't help but recall that when Bafengt attacked the mayor's castle, he was watching from mid-air with his mental power...... I didn't see him chopping the statue, what did he do by chopping the statue?
Of course, Pique didn't know it at this time because it was dark and almost all horse thieves were night blind...... Directly regard the statue towering in the square as an enemy in the way.
"This has to be rebuilt with copper water! This has to go to the blacksmith, what are you knocking on there?" The statue was more than six feet tall, and Peake couldn't see what Ryder was doing on it.
"Hmm...... It's really not a carpenter's job," Ryder turned around, reached out and took off Peake's blue hat, which snapped directly to the statue's head. "I'm thinking about shaving a dot on his head and just buttoning him up with a hat. β
I have to say, this idea is quite novel.
"What about the axe marks on your waist?"
"Give him a cape?"
"......" Pique was speechless. This is a statue of a nobleman after all! Big brother, can you be serious? He muttered for a moment and said, "It's better to plug it with some sawdust......!"
"It's easy for you, but do I have the skills? And isn't that in a hurry? Someone will come tomorrow to fetch the statue. β
"Why is there such a hurry?"
Hearing Pique's question, Ryder hesitated. "There's something I have to tell you, don't get too excited. He thought for a moment, and finally said: "Baron Hajvi Yakel is back, and it seems that he is going to prepare for the wedding......"
