Volume 2 Cosmic Mercenaries Section 577 Another World?
The streets are full of people, and there is a constant stream of people.
An old wooden carriage creaked along, and in front of it was an old horse. The coachman in front of the carriage raised his head with his chest straight, as if it was an incomparable honor to be able to control this carriage that was about to fall apart.
Both sides of the street are full of old and old wooden buildings. Billboards for promotions have been erected in front of some cloth shops and grain stores. There is an endless stream of people buying cloth and food. Next to these storefronts, several jīng-chic small wooden buildings stand out from the eye, and on the second floor sit a few flowery women, while knocking melon seeds, pointing at the flow of people below. From time to time, there is also a laugh like silver bells.
"............" Robbie watched all this dumbfounded, and it took a long time to close his mouth wide open.
I said...... "He stabbed the bloody pupil." Are you sure we're not wrong? ”
"If there's a second passage here." The blood pupil replied dumbfounded, and was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him.
He had already left the second altar and stepped into the passage of the third. But he never imagined that after a tortuous journey, such a scene appeared in front of him.
There are no ruins, no living tissue, and no altars or guardians. This is an ancient and strange world. After passing through a film-like boundary, Blood Pupil and the others stood here.
Compared to the bustling aborigines around them, they are definitely an alternative among the other. Including clothing, he is a person from another world entirely. But strangely no one paid attention to them, as if they were just air.
The blood pupil noticed a faint mist of light outside of his body. Maybe it's this kind of thing that keeps them unnoticed.
"Maybe we're invisible in their eyes." Blood Pupil said after a moment of silence. There was a flash of realization in his eyes. "But it's not going to last, and we're going to get their attention when we show up. I want everyone to stay calm until we figure out the environment here. ”
"Of course, everything comes first in your will, Captain." Robbie shrugged his shoulders and replied indifferently. His eyes fell on the small wooden building not far away. Looking at the flowery girls, he suddenly whistled.
"Ahh I still don't understand the civilization here, but it seems good, and maybe we can get some time to recuperate. Blood pupils. Are you sure every Guardian is an enemy? ”
"I'm not sure." Blood Pupil replied honestly.
"Well, maybe we'll meet a friendly Guardian. Look, how sweet that little girl is smiling. Maybe I can have a glass of wine with her. Redeem her dusty soul. ”
"Hmph, Rob is better than his brother." Xiao Boxi next to him pouted unhappily. Said angrily.
"I'm not a good sè, I just want to talk to her about life." Robbie did not change his answer. A sunny smile.
However, the blood pupil will not be deceived by him, although this guy can be called pious in terms of faith, but he is an out-and-out prodigal son in terms of feelings. Blood Pupil has seen his methods with his own eyes.
With Robbie's sunny temperament and big boy-like smile, it is enough to kill all the heterogeneous xìng up to five years old. As long as there is nothing wrong with the other party's aesthetics.
However, of course, the blood pupil was not interested in stopping him, and just silently observed the surroundings, waiting for the moment when the light mist disappeared.
It's not long, it's fast. The blood pupil saw that the white light mist outside his body began to fade, and at the same time, the surrounding crowd also stopped and turned their eyes to his side.
Their expressions were strange, and they couldn't tell if they were surprised or confused. But to the surprise of the blood pupil, no one panicked. Instead, they point fingers and seem to be judging them. After the blood pupil and the others fully appeared, these pedestrians dispersed in a hurry and continued to do what they had to do.
No one expressed fear or surprise at the appearance of the Blood Pupil and the others, as if the Blood Pupil and the others were a ball of air. Nothing out of the ordinary.
But the blood pupil noticed that just as the crowd resumed flowing, a few boys rushed out of the crowd. [.] Ran towards a small wooden building in the distance.
Above the wooden building, there were several young women looking at this side, as if they were very interested in Blood Pupil and the others. In particular, one of the young girls dressed in red pointed at Blood Pupil and the others, and after a while, a young man who looked like a small guy ran out and came to Blood Pupil and the others out of breath.
Holding his fists and saluting, the little guy spat out a series of syllables. Blood Pupil and the others didn't understand it at all. His language is strange, the syllables are simple, but the meaning is rich, and the words of the same syllable appear many times in a sentence, but they represent different meanings. After a while, the blood pupil looked at Robbie with a strange look.
"I don't have that language in my database."
Robbie shrugged his shoulders and smiled wryly. "Me too. He seems to be using a very distant, antiquity-old language, which belongs to a monophonic overlay. This type of language is rich in meaning and pays great attention to connotation. A byte is likely to derive a myriad of meanings, but the pronunciation is similar. It has always been the most difficult category to translate. It's a pity that it's lost now. ”
"............" Blood Pupil shook her head helplessly. The language barrier led to the worst of the worst.
In fact, civilization has developed to the point where language is no longer an obstacle to communication, and hundreds of millions of languages are stored in the database of the blood pupil, which can provide him with the most accurate translation at any time. But the language used by the little guy is not one of them. As Robbie said, this monosyllabic overlay was the higher language of ancient civilizations, and has always been regarded as the language of God. The meaning is rich and mysterious. It's not uncommon for the database to be unstable.
But the inability to communicate at the moment has become a headache for the blood pupil.
But fortunately, the little guy was also very smart, and when he saw that the blood pupil and the others did not react, he rubbed his hair and spoke another language.
This language was stored in Blood Pupil's database, so Blood Pupil immediately understood what he was saying.
What he said was, "Ladies and gentlemen from the otherworldly realm, my young lady is invited." Please come with me......"
Otherworldly? Befall?
Looking at the little guy's unremarkable god, Blood Pupil suddenly felt that this so-called otherworldly realm was probably similar to the flowers and plants on the side of the road in their eyes, and there was really nothing worth noting. Thinking of this, the blood pupil not only swelled with curiosity, so he said to the little guy.
"Okay."
The little guy nodded, and happily led everyone to the small building. Entering the gate, Blood Pupil and the others suddenly felt as if they had entered the country of incense, and there were beautiful and lovely girls everywhere. They wore conspicuous and decent long dresses, laughed happily with the guests, and performed some songs and dances from time to time.
The Blood Pupil noticed that their singing and dancing were also special. The action is not fast, but it is full of a seductive charm. It is as if it contains the melody of nature, and it is indescribably mysterious and elegant. The guests below are also very distinctive, dressed in ancient robes that are not suitable for battle, but their temperament is extremely outstanding, and they still chant some strange ballads while watching the song and dance. Blood Pupil couldn't understand their words, but she could feel the lightness and otherworldliness contained in their songs.
The blood pupil didn't know that the name of the song in Lu Dao was 'poetry', and he didn't know that Lu Dao was actually a legendary 'green building'.
The arrival of Blood Pupil and the others did not attract everyone's attention. They are also immersed in their own worldly realm. The little guy went up the building with the blood pupil, and soon came to the second floor of the small building, where there was already a young girl who had been waiting for a long time, and when she saw the arrival of the blood pupil and others, she made a gesture of please.
Following the guidance of the girl, Blood Pupil and the others came to a gorgeous living room. All the furniture is made of wood, the shape is strange and strange, and it is full of mysterious elegance. At the top of the hall, a woman in red was already kneeling on the ground, covered with a faint veil and unable to see her expression.
Seeing the arrival of the blood pupil and the others, she waved her hand, and the maid saluted and retreated. Only then did she stretch out her hand to welcome the guests and invite the blood pupil and others to take a seat.
"I'm sorry to surprise the guests of the otherworldly world, but the little woman is really curious, there have been no guests from the otherworldly world here for a thousand years, and the little woman is very eager to get acquainted with the guests and learn about the world beyond the starry sky."
She used the language that the little guy used later, so the blood pupil could understand it. It's just that if you understand it, you can understand it, but the face of the blood pupil changed.
Here, no trialist has entered for a thousand years. So what are they here? A fantasy? Or are they real creatures?
The blood pupil couldn't be confirmed, but on the surface, he didn't say anything, and made a salute according to the mercenary etiquette.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Blood Pupil."
The woman in red watched the movements of the blood pupil with interest, and waited until the blood pupil finished speaking before she sighed, and said a little helplessly. "The little woman's name is Akiba. Also...... It's also a pleasure to meet you. ”
As she spoke, she raised her hand and said to Blood Pupil and the others. "The first time we met, the little woman knew that the way was a little abrupt, so I invited you adults to taste tea, and then talk to the little woman about the world outside later, okay?"
As she spoke, she raised her hand and patted it lightly. The bead curtain outside the door slowly opened, and a group of maids walked in with trays in their hands.
Each of their trays carries a jīng teacup with rippling waves and green leaves. Indescribably fresh and beautiful. Especially as they walked, the teacup exuded an elegant aroma, which made everyone who smelled it feel refreshed.
This is a product of civilization that Blood Pupil has never experienced, and it also makes him feel a strange feeling.
Smelling the fresh aroma of tea, he raised his hand and picked up the teacup from the tray in front of him. Just about to enter the ......
Suddenly, the beaded curtain at the door opened again, and the little guy from before walked in.
"Autumn Leaf Girl, the people from the Imperial Mansion are here, please bring these guests to meet you immediately."
"Smack." The teacup in front of Akiba accidentally fell, and she also stood up.
"The Emperor's Palace?"
