Chapter 101: The Beast
"What about you?"
Chi walked over and looked at Richie, who was sitting against a tree.
Li Qi looked up at Chi and said with a slight smile: "You go and tell the chicken prostitutes first, it's all right, we're safe." I'd like to sit here for a while before I go over. ”
Red nodded, and then rode back on the deer beast.
After Chi left, Li Qi lowered his head and sighed, the impact on him in this short half day was too great, he still hadn't fully reacted, he needed to be quiet.
At this moment, he finally understood the old turtle's words, this world is indeed very terrifying, and if he is not careful, he may hang up.
If Chi came back half a day late, after Ren Nu left, then they would definitely have become prisoners or meals at this time.
There is no room for them to fight back, and this is what will impact him the most.
What bulls, beasts, spirits, and pegasus can actually accept, he already has a certain amount of mental preparation, after all, the belly of the farmer is transparent, what he can't accept is because the human beings at this time are not only not the overlords here, but a bit similar to those wild chickens and ducks in later generations, which are slaughtered by other races.
When he first came here, he met pythons and meow beasts, although they were much more powerful than humans, but Li Qi was absolutely sure that he would suppress these beasts.
He has always maintained the development of human superiority, such as the black iron, he thinks he knows, but judging from the results, only the servants of the kingdom hold black iron weapons, and the cattle and beasts are all wearing armor similar to copper, which can be seen at a glance to be a more advanced metal.
This huge contrast made him a little confused.
"Is this still Earth? Where the hell am I? Li Qi frowned, he only felt that he was becoming more and more unfamiliar with this land, but if it wasn't the earth, then the Shennong clan appeared here again, he couldn't help but think of those ancient myths, which also mentioned a lot of mythical beasts, thinking for a while, he felt that he couldn't completely deny that this was not the earth.
I still want to do this, no matter where this is, I've already come, and I should think about how to survive here. Li Qi couldn't help but look up and smile bitterly, he thought at first that survival was not a problem, the key was to complete the plan to accelerate civilization, but now, survival has become the most important, what to accelerate civilization, he no longer thinks about it, and now he still thinks about those things, that is, self-deception, people and beasts have already used trebuchets, and your bow and arrow have not yet been popularized.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered his own experience as an official in the Northern Song Dynasty, and said to himself: "That's right! When I went to the Song Dynasty, I also happened to encounter the rise of the Jin Dynasty, and the Northern Song Dynasty also couldn't beat the Jin Dynasty at that time, but I couldn't beat them, I could talk to them, humiliation was a little humiliation, but it was better than perishing. Yes, they are so powerful now, we humans can't compete with them at all, then we should Taoguang and try to please them, as long as it is we who win in the end, then the humiliation will also become glory, just like the Yue King Goujian, obviously captured, just because he finally defeated the Wu State, lying on the salary and tasting courage immediately became tall, if Liu Chan finally eliminated the Wei State, then the joy of thinking about Shu is estimated to become an inspirational idiom. It seems that I must go to that cow hump. ”
After gradually clearing his mind, he got up and walked towards the lake.
"Richie! Richie! ”
When the chicken prostitute saw that Li Qi was back, she immediately ran over and said with concern: "Are you okay?" ”
The rest of the people also ran over, usually Li Qi is a leader like a civilian, but at a critical time, everyone remembers that he is a leader.
This is the consciousness that the people should have, and everyone is blessed to enjoy, and it is difficult for leaders to carry it.
"I'm fine." Li Qi smiled and nodded, and asked again, "Are any of us hurt?" ”
In fact, it is impossible for anyone to be injured, because if they are going to be hit, they will definitely die.
Ji Zhu said with palpitations: "Fortunately, Ling'er reminded us in advance, so that no one was stoned to death, but many houses were destroyed." ”
In fact, the other party didn't plan to stone them to death, after all, the stone bullets were not very dense, they just wanted to cause panic among humans, drive them into the hole, and then capture them all alive.
"That's good!"
Li Qi raised his head again, his gaze swept over everyone's faces, and said, "Don't worry, they won't attack us again, not only that, but they have also made a promise that they will not enter the territory of our Huaxia Alliance in the future." ”
"Really?"
Quite excited.
Richie smiled and nodded.
"Richie, you're amazing!"
rushed up, grabbed Li Qi's thigh with his little hand, and looked stunned.
Li Qi has mixed feelings in his heart.
However, his words made the others completely relieved, in fact, their mentality was much better than that of Richie, they just felt extremely frightened at the time, and the other party promised not to beat them, and they immediately relaxed, because they still have no sense of superiority, they don't think it's unusual for horses to fly, it's very strange for cows to talk, and people are bullied by beasts, which is unreasonable, and they won't feel unacceptable in bizarre things.
Li Qi has a sense of human superiority, and it is difficult for him to accept this reality for a while.
"Richie, what do you see them?"
Chi suddenly walked over.
Li Qi first turned his head to look, and then lowered his gaze, only to see a group of guys with sallow faces, wearing bark clothes, monkeys not like monkeys, and people not like people.
These guys are a little over a meter tall, with a Mediterranean hairstyle, a face like a shoehorn, big and round eyes, like monkey eyes, a pair of white ears, ten slender fingers, like an onion, but they have a pair of big feet, they are all dressed in clothes made of tree bark, and they carry a small bag, which is also made of tree bark.
In short, extremely ugly.
"Are you human?"
Li Qi was still slightly startled and couldn't help asking.
Now this sentence is not a curse, no, it is probably of a contemptuous nature to the beasts of the kingdom.
"We are not human, we are beasts."
A beast less than a meter tall stood up and said. Their voices are like two-year-old babies.
Orang? Li Qi was stunned, no matter how he looked at them, he didn't look like an orangutan, and suddenly remembered that he had read a book called "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" in his spare time, which seemed to mention a kind of mythical beast called a fox, and also gave birth to a pair of white ears, and his heart was slightly shocked, it turned out that this kind of beast was not a beast, but a race, but his face was silent, and asked: "Do you beasts also speak human words?" ”
"We've always lived in a place where humans live, so we've learned your human language."
The beast replied.
So smart? Li Qi was slightly startled, and asked again, "Then how are you with the people of the Baishan tribe?" ”
"We don't know them, we used to live on the Swagger Mountain, and we were accidentally captured by the servants of the kingdom. ”
"Kingdom?"
Li Qi was shocked: "Do you know the kingdom? ”
The beast nodded and said, "You were attacked by the kingdom's trebuchets in front of you, but fortunately there are spirits to protect you. ”
Say it as if you're not a victim. Li Qi rolled his eyes and waved at the beast, "Come here." ”
"Oh!"
The beast followed Richie to the lake with its big feet.
Richie asked, "Do you have a name?" Or are you called the Beast? ”
"Yes, yes." The beast said, "My name is Agu." ”
"Agu?"
Li Qi thought to himself, this name is really strange, and asked, "Do you know the kingdom?" ”
"You know, my Father was at work in the kingdom." Agu nodded.
Exercise! Could it be that they have all entered the patriarchal society! Richie asked, "What is the kingdom?" ”
"The kingdom is not a place, but a country, a huge country built by the royal family. ”
"Royal?" Li Qi asked, "This royal family is made up of beasts?" ”
Ah Gu tilted his head and thought for a while, and said: "It can be said that the beasts of the kingdom are not ordinary beasts, we all call them royal families, and their king is the king of the earth, and the only king on this land, because the kingdom is in the center of the earth, and it is also called the Middle Kingdom, and can enjoy the glory of the sun and the moon." ”
Richie asked, "Sun and moon, why can't we see the sun and moon?" ”
Ah Gu sighed: "Because the sun is in the east, the moon is in the west, and we happen to be in the south, we are really lucky to be able to see the sun a few times." ”
Richie wondered, "Isn't the earth, oh no, that the sun doesn't revolve around the earth?" ”
Actually, the earth revolves around the sun, but it looks like the sun revolves around the earth.
"Of course not."
Ah Gu shook his head and said: "The sun has always been in the east, and the moon has always been in the west, so only in the middle of the earth, can you enjoy the glory of the sun and the moon at the same time. ”
Li Qi was stunned for a while, and asked, "What does Jiazi mean?" ”
"A thousand days and a jiazi, ten thousand days and an era, this is the rule of the kingdom."
Li Qi nodded and asked again, "What about ...... So why didn't you see the stars? ”
"You...... You do not see me? Agu looked at Li Qi in surprise.
Li Qi pointed to the sky and said, "I'm talking about the stars that will shine in the sky at night." ”
The fox shook his head and said, "I've never heard of a shining star in the sky. ”
"Never?"
"No, if there were, we beasts would definitely know, because we beasts wander everywhere."
The sun and the moon do not turn, and there are no stars yet? Am I really on Earth? No, even if it's not on Earth, it's on another continent, then you should see the stars, which are planets in the universe. The more Li Qi thought about it, the more confused he became, shook his head, forget it, forget it, the most important thing at the moment is survival. He asked again, "What is Lingzhou?" ”
"Lingzhou is where the spirits live, the spirits are a very powerful race, they can understand the language of all spirits, and they are the most noble race in the world, we often say that if there is no royal family, they may be the head of all spirits."
It turns out that this is a racial talent, no wonder Ling'er ...... She said I couldn't learn. Richie understood it completely.
I heard Agu continue there: "The spirit clan almost does not harm other living beings, and has always been protecting the living beings in this world, so it is deeply respected by all living beings, the reason why we are relatively safe here is because this place is close to Lingzhou, and the people of the kingdom rarely come here to capture us, although the kingdom is much stronger than Lingzhou, but the spirit clan and the royal clan are the same perfect race, and they are still allies, and the kingdom does not dare to anger Lingzhou easily." ”
