Chapter 47: The Value of Books
Alice implemented what she said, and did not let Shangguan Ziyang leave her field of vision at any time - whether it was eating, drinking, washing, or going to the toilet (these conditions Shangguan Ziyang was out of sight), and even when she went to bed at night, she directly picked up the little white tiger on Shangguan Ziyang's bed and threw it aside, and she and Shangguan Ziyang "shared the same bed", the key is that when she slept, she tightly held one of her hands and one of Shangguan Ziyang's hands tightly together like ten fingers, which made Shangguan Ziyang very embarrassed.

"Last night...... What's going on? I look at your face...... Isn't it nice?" On the deck in the morning, Kenji was tossing a small package to Amiri, and saw Shangguan Ziyang and Alice coming out of the cabin, and the two of them clasped their fingers tightly together with one hand, looking like good sisters. But Shangguan Ziyang stretched out and yawned when she came to the deck, and Alice did keep staring at Shangguan Ziyang, for fear that she would suddenly disappear again. Kenji saw that Shangguan Ziyang's face was not very good, so he asked.
(It's the first time I've ever shared a bed with Lori!) And Alice doesn't sleep honestly at night, and she smells of plants from beginning to end...... Not as well-behaved as that little guy, the point is, my hands were almost numb by her all night!)
"Nothing happened, don't worry, I'm fine. Shangguan Ziyang returned.
"Oh, yes? It seems...... You really don't have to worry about it......" Kenji said, and continued to look at his scenery.
"Anyway, have the others gotten up?" Shangguan Ziyang asked.
"I gambled another night last night, and I guess it's still going on, right?" Amiri said as she examined the plants inside the cloth bag that Kenji threw at her.
"......," Shangguan Ziyang didn't know what to say, "Kenji, aren't you together?"
"It's boring...... Kenji said, and then fell silent. This guy has always had very few words.
"Kenji, you originally said that your route to Moon City was the same as ours - then what did you plan to do when you went to Moon City?" Shangguan Ziyang asked Kenji.
"......" Kenji did not answer.
"It's hard to say it directly, then forget it......" Shangguan Ziyang said with a little regret.
"It's not that it's hard to say it directly...... Kenji suddenly said, "I just don't think there's any need to say it." Kenji once again entered a "state of high coldness".
"Oh, is it a reason that everyone knows?" Shangguan Ziyang replied casually.
"Yes and maybe not. After Kenji said this, he fell silent again.
It seems that Kenji is not a person who does not communicate with people very much, and he does not know what happened to him, making him seem to be forever covered with a mysterious fog. Despite this, Shangguan Ziyang did not intend to unravel this fog - after all, everyone has their own secrets and privacy. Just like Gu Xin, he seems to know so many things that it is difficult to grasp his background.
"Anyway, we're still partners together. Shangguan Ziyang said, "So I am deeply grateful for your help along the way." ”
"......" Kenji, as always, did not express any opinion.
"If you can, if there is anything you need help with, just say it, and we'll work it out together. Shangguan Ziyang said.
"......" Kenji just looked at the scenery to himself and did not answer.
"Lord Shangguan, please go back to the cabin first, and I'll give you the medicine later. Amiri said to Shangguan Ziyang.
"Okay, here we are!" Shangguan Ziyang said as he said to Kenji, "Thank you for your herbs." With that, he turned around and entered the cabin under Alice's guidance.
"......" Kenji was still calmly looking at the scenery and did not express any opinions. After Shangguan Ziyang and the others left, he took off the wine jug from his waist and poured himself a sip of wine, still looking calmly into the distance, his deep eyes made people feel full of mystery.

"It looks like it's going to be remarkable. After removing the abrasive cloth that Shangguan Ziyang had tied to her eyes, Amiri carefully observed Shangguan Ziyang's golden eyes, which seemed to be much darker, and said, "But the effect of such an injury herb will only get lower and lower, but it is indeed surprising that it can have such an effect for the first time...... I'm going to have to write this down, it's going to be a valuable piece of information. As he spoke, he began to look for something to record.
"I feel like you have the potential to be a great scholar, Amiri. Shangguan Ziyang said very sincerely.
"No, I'm still a long way from becoming a scholar, after all, there is so much knowledge in the world that I haven't studied, and there are so many unknowns that I haven't explored, and scholars, which one doesn't have the profound knowledge and vast experience of the owner? They can only let me look up, I am far away from them...... Still too far away......" Amiri said as she scribbled on the hides, "and I've read almost all of our books, after all, after the War of Human Independence, almost all of our orc books have been burned by the Church - the magic that the shamans learned, the spells I learned, were passed down from generation to generation. ”
"I knew that was the case, I told you to go to the library with me when I was in Erbut, but I rejected your offer at the time. Shangguan Ziyang said a little embarrassed.
"Please don't worry, Lord Shangguan, after all, you went to the library with a clear goal at that time, and you may have gone to consult materials for a certain problem. If I had gone at that time, I might not have a goal, I don't know if I would have made a mistake......" Amiri put the recorded animal skin into her backpack and began to smear the new abrasive cloth prepared by Shangguan Ziyang with medicine.
“...... If you need it, you can just spend money to buy it, why do you have to read it there?" Shangguan Ziyang asked very puzzled.
"Eh, can something as precious as a book be bought with money?" If Shangguan Ziyang could see it, he would definitely be able to see Amiri's stunned expression, and even the movement of applying medicine on her hand stopped.
“...... In fact, books are precious, but not so much that they are not available...... After all, this is already a civilized society, and it is no longer a place like the Warcraft Mountain Range where you used to be, so ......" Alice was stunned when she saw Amiri's expression, so she explained.
"That'...... It's a shame......" Amiri didn't say anything more, bowed her head and began to apply medicine to the abrasive cloth.
"Actually, I bought a lot of elementary books on magic and magic guides from the library in Erbt City, and although some of them were lost on the crashed ship, there are still a lot of them, but I think ...... These elementary books don't seem to be of much use to you at the moment...... But if you're interested, these books are for you to study. Shangguan Ziyang said as he took out the purchased books from the bracelet that Lao Zhou had given him who had sacrificed for himself, placed them in front of Amiri, and said.
"Lord Shangguan, do you mean...... These books ...... It's all for me...... Amiri?" looked at about twenty or thirty books in front of her, and her voice seemed to tremble.
"Yes...... That's what I thought about when I bought these books to study, but even after reading them, it didn't seem to solve my doubts...... If you have any thoughts on this, please ...... Share your insights with me when the time comes. Shangguan Ziyang said very sincerely.
"Lord Shangguan, although these books may not be a big deal to you, they are ...... to me If I return to the Warcraft Mountains in the future, can I bring these books back with me?" asked Amiri excitedly.
"Please. Shangguan Ziyang said very calmly, "After all, we are companions, and I will not be stingy with what we can share!"
"Thank you, Lord Shangguan, you are really great!" "Amiri seemed to be a little insane.
"Don't don't, don't get excited, when the time comes, when we go to Moon City, we may be able to go back to Moon City to see if there are any books that can be bought, just buy them for you to study, and when we go to the Great Qin Empire, we can do the same!" Shangguan Ziyang said with certainty.
"Lord Shangguan......" Amiri didn't know what to say.
"Don't forget to share your insights with me then!" Shangguan Ziyang said with a smile.

"Made, you're losing again!!!You're out of the woods, aren't you?and, Arath, we're brother and sister!!!," Blue tossed his cards on the table, "I'm going back to sleep!"
"'If you can't afford to lose, don't play, who's at the table with your brother and sister!' I don't know who said it before?" said Iras lightly as she took the bet to herself.
"Damn!" Blue scolded, got up to open the door and prepared to go out, but he didn't expect to bump into Kenji who was about to come in.
"Why didn't you come here until now, otherwise I wouldn't have lost so badly!" Blue shouted at Kenji and walked into his cabin in a huff.
Kenji entered the door sideways, turned around and closed the door by the way, only to find that the eyes of the people in the entire room were focused on him.
"Let's play two?" Gu Xin said provocatively to Kenji on the side of the table.
"......" Kenji didn't speak, but walked straight to the place where Blue had been in front and sat down, his deep eyes staring at Gu Xin without giving in, and everyone present seemed to feel the smell of gunpowder.
"Don't waste any time, deal the cards!" said Patrick the Minotaur as he slapped the table so hard that he almost distorted the table that was fixed to the floor.
"Okay, here, no waste!" said Werewolf Ike as he began to shuffle the cards.
"You're strong, come on, let's battle it out!" Gu Xin said with a lewd and unscrupulous expression, and the other three orcs consciously left the table, leaving only Ike shuffling the cards. This time it's a gamble for the two.
"Whoever loses will have to fulfill one of the other party's requests!" Gu Xin stared at Kenji and sneered.
"Come on......" Kenji's slightly hoarse voice sounded very calmly.

"Anyway, every time you meet someone from the church, you will encounter something unlucky at the same time, I don't think we should be in the same boat with the church this time, right?" Shangguan Ziyang, who had just changed the abrasive cloth on his eyes, said to Alice, who had been holding his hand tightly. Although he was treated like this by such a little Lori, Shangguan Ziyang was still really uncomfortable, so he had nothing to say to relieve the embarrassment.
"I haven't seen anyone from the church yet, so I don't think I'm in the same boat anymore, and it would be unlucky if it happened again, right?And the Qur'an, how could they think you were one of their gangs? It must be on purpose, right? That's a bunch of crazy people! It's really ...... okay not to mention it, but when it comes to the church and the assassination, Alice is so angry that she doesn't fight, "and it causes you to ...... too"
"Don't talk about that, it's said that you used the artifact that day, how do you feel?" Shangguan Ziyang asked.
"......" Alice was suddenly silent.
Shangguan Ziyang seemed to realize that he seemed to have asked something he shouldn't have asked. Hurriedly remedied: "No, I don't mean anything else, I regret this incident where you killed your own compatriots...... Actually, I just want to know what kind of artifact this is, nothing else, don't think about it anymore. ”
"Last night, I dreamed of my compatriots who I killed......" Alice seemed to be sobbing softly, "I'm sorry...... I ......"
Shangguan Ziyang hugged Alice tightly, "Don't be afraid, I'm right by your side...... I think it's your choice, and those of your compatriots have become enemies on the opposite side of the choice you made. Kindness to the enemy is the most important thing, after all, to be merciful to the enemy is to treat oneself with cruelty. So, don't be afraid, I'll be with you all the time. ”
Shangguan Ziyang seemed to understand why Alice was so dishonest when she slept last night, and the smell of plants emanating from her body should be the cold sweat she flowed from, right? Anyway, he can't see anything at the moment, so he can only guess. Elves are different from other mammals, born from nature, and go back to nature. It can be said that it is a "plant" that is very similar to mammals. That's why elves live so long, but their body structure is too similar to mammals like humans.
"I'm really scared!" Alice hugged Shangguan Ziyang tightly, "They appeared in my dreams...... I...... Scared ......"
"Hold me tight, I will always be by your side, there are some demons and monsters for me to break them up!" Shangguan Ziyang said very righteously.
Alice looked at Shangguan Ziyang's eyes, although his eyes were tied with abrasive cloth bandages, but his face was very serious, and he seemed to have a sense of security.
"I ...... OK...... It's always been like this...... Hold you...... "Alice asked with her head buried in Shangguan Ziyang's chest and stammered.
"Of course you can ......" Shangguan Ziyang, although he didn't know why Alice's tone sounded so strange, he still replied with certainty (Save Lori!Start with me!) Shangguan Ziyang's heart actually secretly appeared a dark feeling.
"Thank you, Sister Ziyang!" Alice whispered in Shangguan Ziyang's arms.
