Chapter 175 The Stars on the Edge of the Sky
The first lesson belonged to Joe Duo, and the second and subsequent classes belonged to Feige, so he waited on the playground outside the classroom and sat down on a stone that was right for the shape of his ass by the flowerbed.
"You shouldn't say that. Liz's height allowed her to always look down on Feige, who was only worried about whether her uneven weight distribution would prematurely damage her thin waist. "The idea of using magic to date the year is too wild. If you want to chronicle, you should also use the goddess of truth and thunder as the theme. β
It turned out to be because of this...... It is understandable, after all, the transformation of the entire race of Fuzang women was completed by the goddess of truth and thunder, and they worshipped the goddess from the bottom of their bones, even more fervent than full-time priests.
"Liz, I don't mean to put myself or my magic above the goddess. It is recorded in the canon that the priest had asked the oracle to start the year with the date when the goddess would take over the administration of the world, but the goddess refused and refused to use any date from her. β
"And there's such a thing? I didn't know before. But why would the goddess do that?"
"She is a first-world being, and if she is to be commemorated, then her birthday should be the most meaningful. However, that time was long before the birth of this world, and it was simply unusable. Feige shook his head lightly and said, "After that, each country used the time of its king's accession to the throne as the first year of its own era. Every time there is a change of king, I personally think it's a mess. So, I'm going to compete with the mortal king's birthday, not the goddess. β
"Understood, I misunderstood. Liz smiled slightly, and kind of uncovered it. "Look, Eddie is here, and judging by her angry look, I guess it has something to do with me. β
"What happened to you?" Feige beckoned to Eddie, then patted another stone beside him, "We've noticed you, come here!"
"Lord Feiqi......" Eddie sat down as if the hardness of the stone didn't exist, "This Liz of the Hidden Girl is a cunning fellow, she cheated a lot of potatoes. Originally, those potatoes were meant to be used to earn money to subsidize the school. β
"How do you cheat potatoes? I remember that only Dedewit could transport potatoes, and only you could handle the potato dough that belonged to me, right?"
"That's right. Liz somehow persuaded Didrite to ask for relief from the potato bread and took a lot for nothing. In this way, after deducting the potatoes used for emergency purposes, there is no surplus to sell at all, and even our best ones should not be touched, so as not to be unable to cope with it when something happens. β
"Don't you have anything to eat?" Feige looked at Liz.
Liz scratched her cheek with her fingers and said righteously, "We really don't have anything to eat except the rats, isn't that enough?"
"Don't do it again. Feige waved his finger, "And I suggest you go to Dedewit and explain it to her." It's better to think of a more appropriate reason not to think of her as a child. β
"She's a kid in my eyes, she's only half my age, after all. Liz looked at Feiqi, and the human eyes were not amused at all, but became more and more serious. So Liz sighed and said, "Well, this won't happen again. But you're late, I've already told Didrite about it, and I've already been forgiven by her. Of course, I didn't return the potatoes. β
Feige looked at Eddie, who shook his head and said he didn't know about it. "What are you tossing this for?"
"Actually, like you, I just care about this territory and the problems it brings. Didriet is two hundred years old, but she's only ten years old at best, I mean human. Oh, don't put on a 'you long-lived monsters' face, just because you're alive doesn't mean you're smart. β
Liz folded her hands over her chest and shrugged her shoulders slightly. "Didrite is a good lord, but she's not a good lord either. Even though I haven't been on the surface for long, I've noticed some trouble around her, and it seems that those from Elven Island are isolating and influencing her. Fortunately, she is not too stupid, at least she likes to be close to you and listen to your ideas, so those elves have no choice for the time being. β
"Are you already asking about these things?" Feige was a little surprised.
"Of course. The entire Tibetan tribe now lives in Minas Ithir, and of course I have to be concerned about these things. And we have a talent for it, too, with silent spiders and unobtrusive rats being our allies, and the words of conspiracy reach our ears with the webs in the corners. We know that you are indeed vigilant for everyone's good, but Didrite has only good intentions and lacks vigilance. So I used those potatoes to give her a little warning about what would happen if she lost her vigilance. β
"Well, you're fooling yourself with that. How long did it take you to come up with?"
"It took me three hours to figure out how to get your understanding, and it took a lot of brains. Liz squeezed her eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly: "Although the purpose is different, I actually hope that Didrite can be a smart, vigilant and powerful lord, and at the same time lovingβjust like what you are doing." At the same time, I would also like to say that anything that might endanger the Tibetan women will be dealt with the most severe blows, whether from elves or humans. β
Feige sighed. How can there be one more party? How can the races of this world fall into a state of mutual wariness at every turn, and then slide into the abyss of rejection, antagonism, and hostility? According to his standards, no race in this world as a whole can achieve food and clothing, let alone be well-off. If you don't put your mind on improving your own life first, can you always focus on others for the better?
"Eddie, didn't come down under the cardinal's oracle?"
"There is only one part, which is about the Tibetan women who accept the protection of the goddess and become a new ethnic group accepted by the world church. Eddie was secretly rubbing her butt when she heard Feige tell her to quickly withdraw her hand. "The announcement about potatoes has not been issued, and at this time potatoes and all food in the dirt are still considered to have a devil's curse. β
"What's going on? Didn't I hand in the report of the Hidden Girl?"
"The cardinals don't care much about potatoes, they have never grown them on a large scale like ours, and they don't understand the reasoning. Lord Feiqi, in fact, it is a good thing that we are the only ones who grow potatoes, and at least we can be far ahead of other territories in terms of food, which is an advantage. β
"You're wrong. Our real strength is magic. Potatoes plus a variety of high-yield crops are only our advantages if they can feed more people. If you think I'm a guy who relies on potatoes to gain an advantage, you're underestimating me. β
"I'm sorry, Lord Feige. I ......" Eddie shrunk his shoulders, as if the little servant who was not too confident in her disguised as a man reappeared.
"No need to apologize, you didn't do anything wrong, just be more confident and more open-minded. Fei Qi thought for a moment and said, "I can actually guess why the Priest did this: the Tibetan women are miracles that see is believing, and potatoes are not cursed by the devil, they can't be directly sure." The goddess oracle asked them to search for the truth that they had missed over the years, and it is estimated that those people would not dare to admit anything, and they would all look for evidence in the pile of old papers. After all, it's easy to admit new things, but it's hard to admit the mistakes of the past. β
"They don't dare ignore the Goddess's oracle, do they?!" Liz clenched her fists, as if she was about to punch the archbishop in the head. "The cardinal is to serve the goddess, this is their core obligation!
"I'll write another letter and ask. If the potato matter can be determined early, although this season will not be able to catch up, if the seeds are kept, it can be promoted next year, at least within the scope of the model collar. It's always good to have more to eat. β
"It's not just a good thing, it's a good deed," Eddie said, "Lord Feige, I'll keep an eye on the cardinal's reaction, after all, it's about whether or not our potato processing and food factory is going to be expanded." β
"Well, don't forget about the quick peeling tool, that's the basis of large-scale processing. β
As soon as it came to making money, Liz couldn't interject, and even felt that she was listening to a book from heaven. The Tibetan women belong to a closed and self-sufficient state, and the Yamu tribe in the past was a predator even in the old world, either making or robbing what they need, and they have not developed trade and currency at all. Previously, Feige asked them to promote the breeding of bamboo rats and build a breeding farm on the ground, which also included the proportion of capital contribution and knowledge to invest in shares, these concepts made Liz dizzy and didn't understand it at all. In the end, it was entirely by trusting Feige that she signed the "contract" directly.
There was a burst of laughter in the classroom, followed by Jo Duo's singingβit seems that the troubadour finally couldn't hold back and showed his housekeeping skills. It's just that Anne, Beni and Xia Ni are not here today, and the four-piece band can no longer be reorganized, which is inevitably a little regrettable. Feige listened intently for a moment, and when he heard the lyrics complain about the non-human difficulty of his magic, which was completely a torture tool before the transformation, he really wanted to throw a fireball at Joe Duo's head!
Thankfully, Feige's temper is much better now, and Joe Duo saves a chance to enjoy the fireball. When the singing stopped and the applause rang out, Feige saw three four-wheeled carriages coming from the direction of the school gate, and a familiar figure jumped out of the carriage and ran over.
Still so excited and in a hurry, Rose nearly tripped over her robes. Feige stepped forward, "Us, why are you here?
"I ...... Whew...... I have a mission and should ...... I should say that I applied for it myself. β
"You catch your breath first. What's the matter, it's exhausting to run two steps?"
"I ...... I don't know, I shouldn't be so tired. Rose took several deep breaths before finally straightening up. Slightly different from the last time they met, she had an extra pair of crystal glasses on the bridge of her nose, and there were faint rune marks on the edges of the lenses. "I'm here for the oracle. The Tibetan women have become a new asylum race, so their history needs to be recorded, and a recorder is needed - that is me. β
"This is as it should be, and the Tibetan women will cooperate with you. β
"Wow, you're so tall and so beautiful, I can touch it...... I'll talk about that later. Rose lifted her glasses and turned to Fitch again, "There's one more thing, it's about potatoes. The Cardinal has not yet found any evidence other than your letters, so he has copied all the books that may be relevant and sent them to you, so that you can come to the 'Missing Oracle'. I remember what they said: Anyway, Feige is very good at finding things that the cardinal misses, so leave this task to him!"
"Why do I think they're talking about crystal clusters?" Feige shrugged helplessly and said in an exaggerated tone, "Okay, I've got another job, is this going to exhaust me?"
"No, no, I'll help you. Rose shook her fist hard, then began to gasp again. She pinched her waist with both hands and squeezed her eyebrows hard: "What's going on? Why are you so tired?"
"I'll help you sit down and rest first, maybe your heart is not very adaptable to the sudden turn of the static. β
As soon as Feiqi finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head. He didn't know why he was looking up, it was a movement that didn't take any thought at all. Without warning, at the highest point of the sky, slightly south-east, there was an abrupt bright spot. Even though it's daytime, it's still like the brightest star in the night sky, shining continuously.
"What's that?" Feige pointed as everyone looked up.
"I don't know, but it feels very far away, it should be something in the starry sky. "Liz's twelve eyes have powerful vision, stronger than Feige. She moved from side to side, then confirmed, "Yes, extremely distant, far beyond the sun and moon, it must be something deep in the starry sky." β
"Is an extra star some kind of omen?" said Uss, sitting on the stone, immediately feeling much better and clearer. "There is nothing like it in the canon and in history, I'm sure of that. β
"If you say that, then nine out of nine. Feige looked at the bright spot for a moment, and saw that it hadn't changed since its sudden appearance, and it didn't look like a meteor or something dangerous. But he wondered about one thing: why did he look up before it appeared?
"Fitch, look! it's starting to dim. Eddie patted Feige on the shoulder and pointed to the sky with the other, "Wow, it's almost gone." Well, I can't see it anymore, I don't know if it will appear again at night...... But it was really bright just now. β
Could it be a supernova explosion? But Feige has never seen a supernova explosion, so he can't be sure. Moreover, not to mention that the stars exploded, even if the ground under his feet exploded, he shouldn't have raised his head in advance? He didn't have the habit of raising his head suddenly in the past, especially after having a global vision, which didn't seem like some kind of coincidence.
So what's going on?
