"Thank you for the compliment. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Zheng Fei smiled happily.

Christine frowned: "It's better not to use 'you', although people call me that, but I'm not used to it." ”

"But you are an elder and deserve respect. ”

"Elder?" Christine was surprised, and after a pause, she smiled bitterly: "Okay, maybe I've been too tired in the past eight years, so I look old." ”

After a brief pause, he raised an eyebrow at Zheng Fei: "Guess how old I am this year?"

"Fifty?" Zheng Fei said tentatively, estimating that it should be more than that.

However, Christine's answer shocked him deeply.

"I'm just 30 years old. Christine said lightly, looking up at the night sky, drinking.

When the words touched Zheng Fei's eardrums, he couldn't help but shudder, and the wine glass in his hand almost fell.

His eyes widened as he stared at Christine's old face, her expression, thirty years old...... He was only thirty years old......

A thirty-year-old man who designed a sail battleship that should have belonged to three hundred years later, and created a giant rifled cannon, what can such a person be if he is not a traverser?

Uneasiness welled up in Zheng Fei's heart, and he clenched his fists and took a dull deep breath.

"Thank you so much...... You've got it. ”

"No, no, no, I've never felt hard. Christine shook her head: "On the contrary, for a great goal, even if it makes me tired to death, it is happy." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Fei's eyebrows moved, and a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes.

This sentence changed his mind again, making him feel that Christine is not a traverser, how can anyone be willing to die of exhaustion after crossing?

In this way, he is even more curious about Christine's true identity.

After thinking about it, he asked, "You are from southern Europe, so where is your hometown?"

"A small place in Hungary, you don't know what you know. ”

The corners of Zheng Fei's mouth curled slightly.

"Budapest, Szeged, Page, Schar Castle?......"

Listening to this, Christine's eyes widened in surprise.

"How do you know so many places in Hungary, have you ever been there?"

"I went there before I joined the army, and I went with my father to do business in southern Europe, where the Alps and the Danube are beautiful. ”

"I see. Christine smiled knowingly: "Yes, the scenery is beautiful." ”

"Why don't we talk in Latin? Zheng Fei suggested that because he couldn't understand some of the words Christine said, he was worried that he would miss the key words in the following formal conversation.

"Well, it's been a long time since I've spoken in Latin. ”

After a pause, Christine smiled gloomily: "It should be said that I haven't talked for a long time." ”

Zheng Fei walked over, poured him a glass of wine, and poured himself another glass.

If you want to find out what Christine is really saying, you have to get him drunk first.

You can't be silent when you drink, you have to say something, what can you say to arouse Christine's emotions and make him want to drink?

After thinking about it for a while, Zheng Fei decided to start with the topic of his hometown.

With Christine's permission, he moved a chair and sat down to look up at the stars with Christine, looking for the brightest stars.

"I love Hungary, not only the beautiful scenery, but also the beautiful songs and the fertile black soil. ”

"Don't forget the sexy and glamorous Hungarian girls. Christine added, smiling.

Being led by Zheng Fei like this, Christine took a sip of wine, and the memories in her mind flipped and elaborated.

"My hometown was the small town of Ugod, and I remember there was a forest with tall beech, which I couldn't hold in my hands, and when I was very young, I always liked to climb up to those big trees, and sit on the branches and look at the scenery in the distance, and sit all afternoon, how happy. ”

Christine's expression was filled with endless yearning.

"And then?"

"Later, my father came back, oh yes, I forgot to say, he was out and about the scholars all the year round, leaving me and my mother to live in the country, and he didn't come back until I was ten years old and took us into the city. ”

"When I got to town, I would run out into the street every day to hang out with my new friends, and our favorite thing was to steal food at Bicaul's restaurant, where the back kitchen had leftover steaks and snacks every day, and we would sneak in while the fat chefs weren't looking, grab the plates and run. ”

Speaking of this, Christine laughed, her smile full of childlike innocence, and she raised her wine glass and poured it down.

"Haha, that's interesting...... "Zheng Fei was concerned about his experience when he grew up, including how to design battleships and rifled guns, but it was inconvenient to ask directly.

"Later, my father said that I should learn something when I grew up, so he taught me what he had mastered every day, and took me with him to meet the scholars he visited, and gradually I felt that learning knowledge was quite interesting, I never knew that a paper ball and an iron ball were thrown from the upper floor at the same time, and they would fall to the ground at the same time. ”

"I remember my father coming back from the scholar every night and going headlong into his study, and the walls were covered with all sorts of parchment, with many strange-looking lines drawn on them, and I didn't understand what it was, but when I grew up and yelled that it was artillery. ”

"My father said he was designing artillery, and he loved it, but he was suffering from the fact that Hungary was too peaceful, and there was no war for many years, so he didn't need a talent like him. ”

It was precisely because of this that he couldn't earn a penny by devoting himself to artillery design, and seeing that his family's savings were about to run out, he had to find a way to make money. ”

So, with all his heart, he decided to go to a place where he was needed, and he was told that there was a dangerous war going on in that place, but he thought that the more dangerous the place, the more he was needed. ”

"My mother and I strongly asked to go with him, but he refused at first, but I couldn't help but stiffen my feet, and finally agreed, and sold the things in the house, exchanged some silver coins, and went on the road. The place we went to was called Constantinople. ”

At this, Christine stared at the night sky and let out a long sigh.

"Constantinople was facing the Ottoman Turks, and my father went to help the Byzantine Empire design and manufacture the best artillery against the Turks, but helplessly, the Byzantine Empire at that time was already in decline, and there was no money to cast artillery, not even my father's salary. ”

"After being there for a while, my father felt that his talent could not be used, so he took my mother and me to the Turks......

Christine was about to continue, but then Zheng Fei suddenly thought of something and interrupted him.

"What's your father's name?"

"Urban. Christine replied indifferently.
