Chapter 5: The root of all things

Ye Fang hesitated for a while, glanced at the girl in front of him, and couldn't help but say in his heart, it's so beautiful. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info then stretched out his hand and shook hands with the girl in front of him.

"Uh, hello, that, may I ask where this is?"

Dugu Xiaomeng glanced around, "You said this." This is the holy city of Poseidonia in Atlantis, the center of the world, similar to Beijing, the capital of China. ”

"Atlantis? Wasn't it swept away by a flood in 10,000 B.C.? Ye Fang asked in horror.

Ye Fang had read in the history books that the Greek Plato book "Dialogues" mentioned that Atlantis was destroyed by the prehistoric flood in 10,000 BC.

The young boys and girls around couldn't help but laugh when they heard Ye Fang's words, and a blonde man said with a sense of superiority and disgust, "How can the pets who are protected in the cage know the meaning of the Holy City. ”

Although Ye Fang didn't understand what it meant, hearing the disgust in the yellow-haired man's words and the insulting words in it still made Ye Fang a little unhappy, but for Ye Fang, who didn't know anything about the situation now, Ye Fang didn't continue to dwell on this matter.

However, Dugu Xiaomeng, a girl wearing a blue dress on the side, was obviously not as calm as Ye Fang, but she still had a smile on her face, and quickly walked in front of the yellow-haired man.

The yellow-haired man was very surprised by the arrival of Dugu Xiaomeng, but when he saw such a young and beautiful girl, he suddenly seemed to forget the existence of Ye Fang, "This beautiful oriental girl, please allow me to introduce myself, I am the Earl of Merlin in the Holy City, may I ask the girl what is going on, if it is a dance party, I am happy to accompany her." ”

Boys and girls in the holy city of Poseidonia take the first step in their quest by asking their favorite to have a ball at the Poseidon Theater. It is believed that Poseidon, the mythical god of the sea, is worshipped, and it is said that if you win a couple who is favored by the god of the sea during a ball at the Poseidon Theater, the god of the sea will send Cupid, the goddess of love, the blessed arrow.

Dugu Xiaomeng laughed all of a sudden, and swayed the blue skirt. "Well, yes, but only if you can repeat what you just said."

Count Merlin laughed, thinking that the Dugu Xiaomeng in front of him wanted to humiliate the young man from illusory China in front of him. "Of course, the beautiful Oriental girl, a descendant of the Holy City with noble blood like me, my roots come from the all-knowing and all-powerful sea god, how can this man from that protected stupid mirror world be compared. This, this. What's going on. ”

Dugu Xiaomeng chuckled, "Hey, what's wrong, what's like this?" ”

The middle-aged man who looked like a butler next to Count Merlin walked over, "What's wrong with the Earl?" ”

Ye Fang also looked curiously at the inexplicable Count Merlin in front of him, just like looking at the few people in the class who had obviously never been in love, and even no one had really liked anyone, but thought that after listening to a few bitter love songs, he felt that he was full of stories and mature second classmates.

Earl Merlin began, "I don't know why I can't say what I just said, and I'm stuck in my throat." ”

Dugu Xiaomeng pretended to show expectant eyes, "Lord Earl, you said it, otherwise how could I have a dance with you." ”

Ye Fang muttered to himself in his heart, actor, although he doesn't know what all this is about, but Ye Fang knows that it is caused by the girl in front of him, Ye Fang's observation and insight can be said to be extremely good, of course, this is the advantage that Ye Fang can count with a slap.

Count Merlin was a little anxious, but he couldn't say that.

This caused the people around him to laugh, "What earl, he can't even say a word." ”

At this time, the housekeeper next to him seemed to realize something, stared at Dugu Xiaomeng for a while, and then said to Count Merlin in horror, "Earl, let's go, this woman is." ”

Dugu Xiaomeng said, "It's the Guanjian Tower." ”

Earl Merlin's face was a little ugly after listening to Dugu Xiaomeng's words, but he also said decisively to the butler, "Let's go." ”

Dugu Xiaomeng said, "Why don't you want to go to the dance together?" ”

Count Merlin smiled and said, "No, I don't mean that, goodbye." ”

Dugu Xiaomeng sighed, "It's a pity, I haven't had a chance to go to the Poseidon Theater until now." ”

Count Merlin's chest was tight, but he still couldn't help but speak, but quickly left with the butler.

The people around began to discuss, "She is the Oriental girl in Guanjian Tower." ”

However, Dugu Xiaomeng didn't care about other people's comments on her, the beautiful girl is the focus wherever she goes, and Dugu Xiaomeng has long been used to it.

Ye Fang said to Dugu Xiaomeng, "Thank you." ”

Dugu Xiaomeng said with a smile, "Don't be polite to me, you and I are both from China." When you study abroad and meet a Chinese senior sister, don't be afraid, crossing this thing, in fact, it is not a crossing, it is the same as traveling abroad, if you want to go back, we will go back, the senior sister has also experienced, I will follow you. ”

Ye Fang listened to Dugu Xiaomeng's words, and followed Dugu Xiaomeng's words and said, "Well, senior sister, hello." However, Ye Fang felt that a self-familiar senior sister like Dugu Xiaomeng was so beautiful, and she would be abducted in a few minutes in China.

Dugu Xiaomeng said, "You haven't introduced yourself yet." ”

Ye Fang also realized, "It's good for senior sister to call me Ye Fang." ”

Dugu Xiaomeng looked at Ye Fang, "When did you cross over?" ”

Ye Fang thought about it, and felt that the Dugu Xiaomeng in front of him didn't look like a bad person, not to mention that he helped himself once just now, and chose to tell the truth, the most important thing is that Ye Fang also wanted to know the specific situation here. "I saw it from the doorstep this morning and walked over."

Dugu Xiaomeng thought for a while, "There are so many people here, why don't you go to my house, for now, I live alone in my house." ”

"Senpai, is it going to your house? Is that appropriate? Ye Fang asked, you must know that in China, if a boy goes to a girl's house alone, if it is known, but the girl's parents will throw a gas canister.

"Nothing out of place, let's go." Under the leadership of Dugu Xiaomeng, the two left here.

Not long after the two of them left, a teenager appeared in the place where Ye Fang had just appeared, accompanied by several silver-haired middle-aged men in black suits.

"Young Master Michael, it looks like he's already left here." The boy nodded. It's a pity, "It seems that the school is one step ahead, you guys go back first, I'm going to go to the mirror world." ”

At this time, there is a huge Gothic church on the left, which stands out among many Renaissance buildings, full of Gothic architectural characteristics such as point, height, and divinity. An elderly man, accompanied by a young girl, and a middle-aged man began to eat breakfast. The old man said to the girl next to him, "Suhee, is she back?" ”

The girl wore a pure white silk dress with lace left by her grandmother, among the real aristocracy of Western Europe, it was a rejection of luxury, and it was simply inconceivable for them to choose a so-called big brand, generally speaking, all the costumes for the party were custom-made from the handicraft workshops of their ancestors, and it was a very honorable thing for a girl to wear a dress left by her grandmother to the banquet.

The girl's golden hair is coiled up with a blue ribbon, looking very dignified and beautiful, a living court aristocratic girl who came out of the Middle Ages in Western Europe.

The girl replied, "Grandfather, Suhey is still in that illusory world. ”

The middle-aged man next to him spoke, "Your Excellency, did that little girl from the East run away to that world?" ”

The old man took a sip of the coffee on the table and nodded, "I asked her to come over, the little girl has grown up, and there are some things that she must know, after all, China is her home, since she doesn't want to come back yet, let her play for a few more days." ”

The middle-aged man said, "Your Excellency, you must have heard about today's incident. ”

The old man looked at the white dove flying by the window and said, "Well, I heard that, maybe he is a hero who can put an end to this tiresome war." Then he drank all the coffee on the table, and stood alone at the window looking at the place where Ye Fang had disappeared. It's like catching up with an old friend who has known each other for many years. He said softly, "It's been a long time. ”

The fountain at the entrance of the Gothic church spews out a 100-meter-high column of water, which is refracted by the sunlight and illuminates the Statue of Liberty in the center of the square.

Along the way, Dugu Xiaomeng kept looking at Ye Fang, and Ye Fang kept asking about the situation of Dugu Xiaomeng's world, and the two of them walked in this Western European style city similar to the Renaissance.

If you rule out the panic of suddenly breaking into this world, Ye Fang still enjoys it very much, because Ancy likes to read Shakespeare, Ye Fang also falls in love with literature, for a literary and artistic youth, such a city full of romance and literary atmosphere is a place that I have always longed for, not to mention the picturesque girl with a sword next to her, and some exciting and incredible things.

"Here, this is my home, Guanjian Tower. Well, not bad. Dugu Xiaomeng looked at the building and exclaimed.

"Ancient Chinese architecture?" Ye Fang asked, the Guanjian Tower in front of him was different from most buildings in the city, it was a Chinese-style building.

"Well, one of the few Chinese-style buildings, let's go in," Dugu Xiaomeng said.

"Hey, Xiaomeng, you're here." A blonde man from Western Europe walked over, and when he passed by Ye Fang, he showed a trace of unhappiness, although it was only for a moment, but he was seen by Ye Fang.

The man said to Lonely Little Dream, "Is this your new friend?" Before Dugu Xiaomeng could answer, the man said to Ye Fang, I am a friend of Dugu Xiaomeng, if something happens here, you can find me, and I will try my best to help you solve it. ”

A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Fang's eyes, obviously he didn't expect this man to say this. "Well, hello, my name is Ye Fang." Ye Fang said, but for the person in front of him, Ye Fang left a careful eye, Ye Fang is generally a gentle and introverted, sleek and measured person.

"Alright, Burke, I'll talk about it tomorrow, and now I'm down to business with him." Dugu Xiaomeng obviously didn't want to continue to entangle with the man named Burke in front of her, she was now full of curiosity about Ye Fang.

Burke glared at Ye Fang, and there was a trace of jealousy in his heart, but he would not spill his anger in front of Dugu Xiaomeng, which would make Dugu Xiaomeng feel that he had no bearing.

A boy with an extraordinary bearing is very lethal to a girl.

"Alright then, Xiaomeng, see you tomorrow." Burke knew there was no point in going on like this.

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow." Dugu Xiaomeng patted Ye Fang's shoulder, opened the door, and the two walked in. Dugu Xiaomeng complained, it's better not to see.

"You sit down for a while, I'll go get something." Dugu Xiaomeng walked into the kitchen.

Ye Fang sat down, looked at the house carefully, and found that although the exterior was an oriental-style building, many of the small decorations inside were still very dreamy girls, it seemed that girls were cute creatures in most cases.

A photo on the table attracted Ye Fang, the photo was a scene of an eleven or twelve-year-old girl and a middle-aged man learning swords, this should be a photo of Dugu Xiaomeng when he was a child, this middle-aged man should be Dugu Xiaomeng's father, Ye Fang unconsciously looked at this happy scene, and also raised a happy smile.

Ye Fang is such a person, sometimes looking at the warm scene, he can feel some warmth more or less.

"Give, milk, bread." If you want to drink tea or coffee, you can wait until the afternoon, and sometimes I will drink tea in the afternoon.

Ye Fang realized that he hadn't eaten breakfast yet. "Thank you."

Dugu Xiaomeng tied the two swords off her skirt and put them on the table next to her. Then sat down too.

"Is this your weapon? Do you learn to be a sword? Ye Fang saw a lot of incredible things along the way, and he could vaguely guess some things.

"I started learning swordsmanship with my father when I was very young." Dugu Xiaomeng said.

Ye Fang stared at the slender long Taitai knife and said, "That should be a Japanese knife." ”

Dugu Xiaomeng nodded, "Two years ago, I won it from a Japanese sword master in the mirror world, and I thought it was pretty good, so I brought it." You should have heard of this, it is called Guanshi Zhengzong. ”

Authentic Avalokites? Ye Fang couldn't believe that a weapon in Japanese legend actually appeared in front of him, but thinking about it, even the crossing happened, which is not unusual. Ye Fang has seen in some novels that the Guanshi Authentic Knife Long 64.4.cm is a famous knife originating from the end of Kamakura, Japan, and belongs to the representative work of the main sword, representing glory.

Dugu Xiaomeng said with a smile, "Of course, this sword has been reforged using modern alchemy, incorporating some rare metals to increase its hardness and sharpness, even a diamond with the highest level of Mohs hardness standard can be easily cut." ”

"It's so powerful, it's worthy of a famous knife." Ye Fang said softly. "By the way, can you tell us about the situation in this world first?" Ye Fang suddenly thought that he hadn't figured out what state he was in yet, and he had to find a way to go back.

Dugu Xiaomeng handed Ye Fang a book, "Presumably there must be something you want on it." Ye Fang took the book, and at this moment when Ye Fang didn't see it, the corners of Dugu Xiaomeng's mouth raised a sly arc, and his face was full of expectation.

"Therootofallthings, in English?" Although Ye Fang's English score is okay, it is very embarrassing to ask him to read an English book, and in China, if you want to read an English book, you must probably have the level of English National Level 8 (CET6).

"What's wrong?" Dugu Xiaomeng looked at Ye Fang's expression and asked.

Ye Fang looked embarrassed, "Is there a Chinese version of that?" ”

Dugu Xiaomeng was a little surprised by Ye Fang's answer, and then showed a smile, "Senior sister told you, it's okay, it's Chinese inside." ”

Yes, Ye Fang slowly opened this book "Therootofallthings" in disbelief
