When the Manka Golden Lion came to visit Dia, her cheeks flushed from the illness and tears ran down the corners of her eyes.

She held out her hand to him.

What a delicate, weak hand it was.

When Manka catches it, it's like a branch made of hot snow.

"I'm so scared......" said the haughty woman, trembling.

She was no longer a firesparrow, but a helpless woman, so his heart was suddenly full of tenderness for her.

"I'm afraid you'll never come to see me again. She said with tears in her eyes.

"I've heard you're very sick. ”

"I love you. She whispered, so light that Manca thought it was a delusion.

"What did you just say, kid?" he asked, leaning down.

"Am I still a child? Am I still a child in your eyes?"

"Don't cry, don't cry. Manka wiped tears from her eyes. She sobbed quietly for a while, then pulled the king's hand to her lips and kissed it.

"I love you. She said.

Her eyelashes were wet with tears.

She feigned composure.

"I thought I still had a chance to gain your love! Yes, Your Majesty, I did not dare to say it, but I do love you. How nice it would be if you would give me a chance!"

"You have a lot of opportunities. Manka stroked her hair with a forceful gesture.

He is the father of three children and the husband of two women. Even if he is not gentle by nature, he knows how to soothe others.

"You'll be fine, Dia. He comforted, "Waiting for you ......."

Hearing him say this, Diya shed more tears. She had to close her eyes.

And he continued, "When you are well, I will let you know that I love you, Dia. ”

When Mo Shi walked into the room, he saw Dia half-sitting on a pillow, her eyes wide open, and a smile that rose and disappeared from time to time on the corner of her mouth.

"Mr. Moshi...... I can't believe I actually said those things. What's even more terrifying is that I don't feel like I'm lying, am I deceiving myself?"

So he knew she had succeeded.

Fever caused by a cold, as well as pneumonia.

With the aid of the primary healing technique of the blue bird, the inflammation was quickly suppressed. After all, Dia was young and not frail before, and she soon gradually got better.

And when she was finally able to go for a walk in the garden with her help, the next day the king proposed to her.

In the kingdom of the snowwalkers, there is a "polyandry system" similar to that of ancient China, with side chambers called "arm wives", while in the court, the king can have one wife and two wives, and the rest of the legal lovers are called "co-wives". The Manka Golden Lion had only two wives to this day, so the Diya Firesparrow was the king's first side chamber.

The love and marriage of the snowwalkers were relatively distant and difficult to know for Moshi.

But what is clear is that now that the Firesparrow family has truly become the backbone of the king's backing, it also means that as long as the Firebird family does not fall, its children will be safe and sound, which should not be too difficult for a closed country.

As for whether they are happy, whether they are happy or not?

Mo Shi has neither the power nor the ability to evaluate, let alone predict the future.

At this point, Mo Shi felt that he should calm down and do something that had nothing to do with the struggle of the nobility.

He offered to go to the Southlands.

"Nandi, what kind of 'Nan' do you mean?" the king raised his eyes to look at him, and removed the queen from the knights of Moshi, "do you mean the south of the Falling Star Mountains, or the extreme south of the Valley of Kisses?"

Since the king was newly married, he had less time to spare.

Therefore, the entertainment of this chess game is very important for Mo Shi.

And based on his certain knowledge of the king, he decided to tell him bluntly.

"I don't want to hide anything from you, I'll tell you what I think. Mo Shi cleared his throat.

The Manca Golden Lion raised a slight frown at his frankness.

"It seems that there is really something important that you have to take seriously, you have to go to the South, is it about your hometown?"

The mention of "hometown" made Mo Shi stunned.

But it's one of the places he's considering.

"In fact," said Moshi, "I want to go south to find out something about the future of your northernmost country. ”

It's an unbelievably big story.

But Mo Shi's tone was sincere: "Your Majesty, you are the master of this country, what considerations have you had about this?"

Manka's expression quickly became gloomy.

"What kind of considerations? Mr. Mo Shi, you asked...... Strange question. ”

The king didn't care about the queen and the knights, and removed his finger from the chess piece.

"As far as I know," Mo Shi carefully chose his words, "the Kingdom of the North has not been in contact with the outside world since it was shrouded in heavenly punishment a thousand years ago. ”

Therefore, there is no such thing as the survival of the state.

As a result, there will naturally be no objective need for "self-development".

"That's because we haven't atoned for our sins. The sins of the snowwalkers are in the blood, passed down from generation to generation, and the gods will not return to the land until the day the sins are completely cleansed. The king said numbly.

According to the last three chapters of the Holy Codex, the Snowwalkers were accused by the tribes for gratuitous killings.

The Lord of the Empty Wheel is the Lord of all, the Lord of mercy, the Judge of Justice.

He punished him many times, and eventually, as if his love for the people of the Golden and Silver Ages had been exhausted, and finally decided to cast the Bronze Age, he banished all the snowwalkers to the northernmost land of extreme cold, and sent down heavenly punishments.

But this is really a very unreasonable thing.

At least, Mo Shi didn't understand it at all.

If he were a resident of this world, he would have complained about the god's unreasonableness and cruelty.

But, given that he is only a "guide", what he has to do is to do his best to advance civilization.

"Yes, we suffer for the sins of the past. But I don't think we can just sit and wait. Mo Shi said, "Is sin something that will go away by itself?"

"You know this better than I do, Mr. Morse's beloved disciple of Saint Ann, a former ascetic," the king looked at him, "and the snowwalker atoned for his sins by suffering. We have struggled for generations in this barren land, where suffering is offset by sin. We wait for the verdict, we chant hymns for God, we scourge ourselves to atone for our sins. ”

Yes, that's exactly how snowwalkers think about "heavenly punishment".

The Snowwalker race is not good at magic, due to the sparse and intermittent magic circuits of the body itself, the sparse natural magic elements of the world itself, and the imperfect spell system caused by the degree of civilization, etc., they cannot regard the "Heavenly Punishment" as a powerful "technique" like Mo Shi; in their eyes, the Heavenly Punishment can only be done by the gods.

Suffering may be only part of the atonement. Mo Shi said cautiously.

He didn't dare to make mistakes.

The consequences of committing a mistake of rebellion against religion in a Unitarian society are terrible.

"Seemingly, you have a different opinion. The king stared at him, "I also studied at the Spinel Academy, and I know that there are many scholars who have made many other points of view, but there have also been many people who have paid for their words and have been burned at the stake. ”

Moshi was by no means stupid, and he quickly figured out part of the king's position.

Obviously, the king was at least not excluded from learning about the so-called "emerging ideas".

So Moshi paused, and continued: "A hundred years ago, the theologian, the priest of Tui, once put forward the idea that in the Holy Scriptures, the Lord of the Empty Wheel said, 'By my hand the heaven and the earth are separated, I want all things on earth to flourish, and I want the light of those who believe in me.' ”
