Text Chapter 80 Old bone, you have a daughter you have never met
Sometimes, life is so vulgar and routine.
Auroboros felt that the novel in which he lived seemed to be developing into the routine of a brainless little white text. Generally speaking: the common brainless Xiaobaiwen in online novels has always used the following routines: the protagonist is stepped on, counterattacked, forcibly conflicted, pretending to be X, slapped in the face, and counter-slapped in the face...... Uh, as for brainless cool texts and the like, generally speaking, it should be a supporting role, and there is no lower limit for the IQ of all kinds of characters, and the protagonist is all kinds of hanging bombs, huh...... At least that's how Oroboros has always understood it.
Or is this how the author himself understands it......
But why is it that sometimes, some works under the routine can often be compared to works that are more rich in literary and artistic atmosphere?
Take the songs!
Throughout the past 20 years or so of the new century, what is the most popular song? There are "Mice Love Rice" in the front, "Phoenix Legend" in the back, and songs like "Little Apple". These are basically saliva songs, the rhythm is bright and catchy, the lyrics are either I love you or you love me, very straightforward and brainless, but all of them are popular all over the country.
On the contrary, although a literary song like "The Love of My Life" has a high status in the hearts of many literary youth, it is actually only a niche, and many people are not familiar with it at all.
In the same way, online articles are just reading materials that everyone uses for entertainment in their leisure time, and they are more just able to find a fun in the process of passing the time.
An online essay can easily be millions of words, and it takes the author to work seven or eight hours a day day and write it for a year and a half to finish. A good work takes time to brew and run-in, and the authors who write online articles don't. They have to keep updating every day, relying on constantly piling up plots to increase the word count of their works.
Sometimes, people don't read books for the artistic level of the work at all, what they read is just the number of words in the work. A novel with a vivid plot and writing, because it is only three or four hundred thousand words, no one cares. A sloppy and vulgar novel with a sloppy and vulgar storyline will have a lot of people lying on the couch boringly flipping through it on their mobile phones because it has millions of words.
The work that everyone writes is a running account, which is nothing more interesting or exciting than who writes this running account.
Why is this happening?
Because the characterization of online articles is originally for everyone's pastime. A novel with an endless aftertaste, for us and other sentient beings, can only experience the charm of a short time, although this charm may last for a long time and time, but it is only that, at most, I will only pick it up again in a spare afternoon and read it carefully......
But a web article that only allows everyone to feel that the story plot is very cool, but the actual content is empty and boring, can kill everyone's time for a few days or even ten days. In this era when people's lives are empty and boring, human beings need to constantly find fun to fill the fatigue caused by daily pressure, everyone will go to the next online article after reading an online article, even if it is "Dou Breaking the Sky" and "Douluo Continent", which were once popular all over the country, how many people can read it a second time without missing a chapter?
And the value of online articles is just that......
(Oroboros: Hmm...... I feel like I'm living in a novel, but the author doesn't intend to kill me, so he doesn't plan to travel to reality and kill the author. After a minute, the author will receive 100,000 dollars. )
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It turned out that just a few days ago, a very powerful man came to this village, and I heard that it seemed to be a kingdom count who believed in the six gods. After hearing about the place where the gods had descended in this village, they hurried to this village to worship the gods.
The count was accompanied by seven or eight other minor nobles of the kingdom, and other than that, no other nobles appeared.
In fact, this can be regarded as a phenomenon of the kingdom, and it is rare for the big nobles to really believe in the existence of gods, let alone just a foreign god, if it is discovered by political enemies, it is very likely that he will be charged with collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. Even if you really believe in it, it is estimated that you believe it in private, and no one will put it on the table. Therefore, those who dare to believe in the open, at most, are the existence of three or two big cats and small cats, as long as these people are safe and law-abiding, the king will generally not touch them.
But the conditions of Karn Village were there, and it was a mere ordinary village. This small village can be said to have nothing, just dozens of thatched huts and hundreds of pieces of land, not to mention hotels and restaurants, and even a grocery store!
In this place where there is no village and no shop, it is much better to have a thatched hut than to sleep on the street. Moreover, this village seems to have a high space for development, don't you see so many pilgrims popping up in this village all at once? If you build a temple in this village where people can worship the miracle forever, you will not only be blessed by the gods, but the surrounding area of the village will quickly become prosperous, and there will be a lot of profit in it.
So these nobles decided to get the village in their hands.
The nobles of the kingdom have one characteristic - that is, they do not treat ordinary people as human beings at all, and in their own territory, they can deprive ordinary people of their lives at will, and even impose higher taxes at will, as long as they do not rebel, even the king is helpless about it.
However, this is a place where the gods have descended, and it doesn't seem to be very good to drive the villagers away directly. So they decided to compensate the villagers with a sum of money that they themselves considered "abundant", so that the villagers could donate their land to build a shrine for the gods.
They themselves felt that it was already merciful for them to do so, but it was nothing more than a problem for a village that had just been slaughtered. In addition, the grain outside the village has also entered the harvest season, and the villagers can be said to have no way out when the land inside and outside the village is expropriated together.
In fact, the actions of the nobles did not arouse opposition from others, and the followers of the Slen Sect were very dissatisfied with the nobles' intention to take over the village. Among these believers, there are many priests and mages of the Slen Sect, and these priests and mages who believe in the six gods know very well what the nobles of the kingdom are having, so they are more or less indignant about what happened to the villagers.
However, what made them even more unpleasant was that the day after the nobles took over the village, the travelers who stayed in the villagers' homes had to pay a higher accommodation fee, which made the travelers collectively very unhappy.
It's a pity that the priests and mages of the Slian Sect can't do anything about all this - first, this is the land of the kingdom, and the other party is a nobleman, and it is easy to cause disputes between countries if they are moved casually; Secondly, before leaving the country, the Slen Sect was photographed by the "miracle" caused by Oroboros, and posted a notice in the border area, strictly prohibiting the adventurers and travelers of the Slenn Sect from taking the initiative to use force.
Based on this, although believers have complained, they are basically still in the stage of suppression.
Oroboros looked around, and felt as if he didn't see the figure of the general: "By the way, where is Anli?" I remember I should have given her a horn to summon monsters, wasn't she useful? ”
The village chief said, "The horn you gave to Ann Li, Ann Li has already used it, and she has summoned thirteen goblins that are not inferior to the knights of the Cult. It's just that Ann Li didn't let the goblins she summoned have a conflict with the nobles, so they were all arrested by the nobles, and it is estimated that they should be on the way to Ye Lantil now. ”
"I see, no wonder I didn't see Ann Li's ......" Seriously, Ann Li's performance made him a little disappointed. Originally, he thought that An Li would lead the goblin army to fight with the nobles, but she surrendered directly without even resisting, I don't know if this will affect her summoning the goblin army in the future......
"Lord Oroboros, I hope you will help us recover our house and land. If it's you, you can do it. Please, be merciful......"
"With all due respect, it is not beneficial for us to have a conflict with the nobles of the kingdom.!" Ainz bluntly refused. In this case, confronting the kingdom in direct conflict is not part of his plan.
Because Ainz had changed his outfit, the village didn't recognize him as Aintz: "Lord Oroboros, this is ......"
Oroboros made a silent gesture, "If you listen to the voice, you should be able to tell who he is, right?" ”
"Okay, I see. But my lord, please save our village......" The village chief's voice began to tremble. Suddenly, the village chief slapped his thigh, as if he remembered something, and then excitedly said to Oroboros, "That's right, my lord." I remember that Captain Gurdjief must have said that Lord Auroboros could be given the title of nobility according to his merits. Lord Oroboros can ask the Kingdom to make Karn your fiefdom, and we are willing to pledge our allegiance to you for generations to come, believing that the King will not refuse you! ”
"This will not work, we will not accept the title of any country!" Surrendering to others is unacceptable to both Oroboros and Ainz.
Nonsense, if you accept the title, won't the goddaughter of the old bone not have the title of "lord"? Without the title "Lord", there would be no way to summon an army of goblins, let alone create fun for yourself.
Wait, the goddaughter of the old bone......
Oroboros seemed to have an epiphany all of a sudden: since he is unwilling to accept the title of nobleman, then let others accept this title, such as goddaughter or something, hehehehe......
Ainz couldn't help but feel a little creepy when he noticed Oroboros standing on the side smiling sinisterly, whenever Oroboros laughed like this, something quite bad would happen to him.
"Oroboros, what are you laughing at?"
Oroboros didn't speak, and turned on the private channel: "Old bones, we must have compassion, learn to care for the working people, and care for the three farmers!" ”
Ainz: "If you don't want to clash with the nobles, and you don't want to accept the title, then what can we do?" ”
Oroboros: "Who said we wouldn't accept the title, how could we not eat the meat in our mouths!" ”
Anz: "Aren't you not accepting the title?" ”
Oroboros: "Of course I won't accept the knighthood, that's why I'm asking you to help!" ”
Ainz: "If you want me to help, how can I help?" ”
Oroboros: "Old bone, you actually have a long-lost daughter......"
