Chapter 10, Conversation on the Road
After Jiang Sato and Linnaeus went downstairs, Jiang Sato said to Linnaeus: "I'll send you, I just want to ask you something." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Sato pointed to his eyes.
Linnaeus nodded, "Okay." ”
Jiang Sato shouted at Xie Fei and Chen Chromian, who were taking a taxi on the side of the road: "I'll send Linnaeus, you guys go first." ”
Xie Fei was about to ask the reason, but Chen Chromian stopped him, "Didn't you see it? ”
Probably Linnaeus lived in a relatively remote place, there are not too many pedestrians on the road, and you can see a good night view of the Huangpu River.
"Thank you for the contact lenses, my friend didn't see it at all. Jiang Sato opened the topic and said.
"Nothing, I'm just going into my obligations with it. Linnaeus said.
"The results are out, something about my eyes. Jiang Sato asked what he was most concerned about.
"I don't know, the boss hasn't contacted me since he flew to Italy, and in general, the results should come out in a week. Linnaeus looked down and frowned, thinking carefully.
"Yes, then, no matter what, just wait and see what happens. Jiang Sato said.
"Well, that seems to be the only way to it. Linnaeus sighed.
"By the way, how did you know my name when we first met?" asked Jiang Sato, remembering something very important.
"Did you ever write a novel called 'The Watchmen'?"
"That's right. Jiang Sato replied, "Have you seen it?"
"I read it, I liked it, and then I remembered the author's name, but I thought Jiang Sato was your pen name, but I didn't expect someone to really call this strange name. Linnaeus replied with a smile. "The name of my parents, what can I do. It's weird, it's weird, I'm used to it. Jiang Sato said helplessly.
"How did you and Sister Na meet?" Jiang Sato asked again.
"How?" Linnaeus tilted his head and thought about it, looking a little cute. "When I just graduated from college, I went to Sister Na's company for an internship, and I didn't understand anything at first, and I always made mistakes, so I was often scolded by my manager. Then Sister Na couldn't stand it anymore, so she often helped me, and over time I got acquainted. ”
"yes, it's really like her character. She helped me a lot when I was in college, and now I think about it, I was taken care of by her at that time. Jiang Sato remembered the past when he was helped by Zhao Na in college, and felt warm in his heart.
"Having said that, I became a novelist only because of her encouragement. Jiang Sato said.
"Oh, listen to you, there's a story in the meantime? Linnaeus urged.
"Okay, I'll tell you my story, when I was in college, I didn't like writing at first, and then I joined the literary club in a daze during extracurricular activities. Then I tried writing and found it interesting, so I kept writing until I finished writing a novel and signed a successful contract for publication, and I realized that maybe writing was what I really wanted to do. So, taking advantage of the momentum of my successful publication, I wanted to write novels full-time after graduating from university. Then I told my family about the idea, but I didn't expect that no one in my family supported my idea, because the novelist's income was unstable, and besides, I had just published a novel, and I didn't have much fame. So I wanted to give up, until Sister Na said to me: If you have an ideal, you should persevere, even if the whole world opposes you, you should still persevere, how can you succeed without this belief? Jiang Sato said.
"I see. Linnaeus nodded, "But I think you're quite talented at fiction." At least I've read your novels, and although the content is a bit old-fashioned, the writing is delicate. It's quite readable. ”
"Thank you for the compliment. Jiang Sato replied.
"You're too polite. Linnaeus smiled and waved at Sato.
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, why do you work for the church?" Jiang Sato asked with some curiosity.
"Guess?" said Linnaeus with a somewhat mysterious smile to Sato.
"How can I guess what you're going to do, so I'll give me some hints. Jiang Sato smiled bitterly.
"Well, in that case, I'll give you a hint, but it's a legend. Linnaeus said mysteriously.
"A long, long time ago, there was a very powerful person, she was very powerful, so there were many people who were afraid of her, but there were also many people who respected her. And she has many, many people. As the head of the clan, she leads her people to live a life in a paradise. But after a long time, it is inevitable that some people have stayed in one place enough and want to see the outside world. She was forgiving, so she allowed those with intense curiosity to pursue what they wanted, and she generously gave them a portion of her strength to protect themselves. So some of them left. Some of them stayed with her.
And then another few decades passed. Those who left never returned. She was a little worried about the safety of those tribesmen, so she decided to personally lead the rest of her tribe to find those who had not returned.
However, when they entered a nearby city to search, they saw one of her clansmen on a gallows on the city's central street. Then she watched her people being hanged alive. The pastor of the nearby church announced in public that they had found a believer in the devil and were carrying out God's judgment.
She was enraged by this, and she and her people slaughtered the entire city. Eventually, she formed a grudge against those people.
Many conquests were organized to eliminate her, and the crusade lasted intermittently for nearly a few hundred years. During this period, she felt weak and chose to form an alliance with the local people. Fight together. Eventually, in a final battle, they and their allies eventually repelled the attack, but were forced into her base by a pair of the Church's most elite Templars. Eventually, after fierce fighting, the last of her people were killed and wounded. Eventually, she was killed by the Templars. Unbeknownst to the knights, however, she also had a daughter, who had been sealed away by her mother in a safe place for her safety, until she was allowed to survive an era that did not belong to them. That was all Linnaeus had done.
"A good story, maybe as material for my novels. Jiang Sato said, "But what does this have to do with you?"
"That's all for the hint, forget it if you can't guess. Hey. Linnaeus said with a smile.
"Ahh I've arrived, so send it here. Be careful on the road. Linnaeus smiled and waved goodbye to Esato, but what Esato didn't notice was that her smile looked a little lonely.
"Well, goodbye. After sending Linnaeus back to the apartment, Esato took a taxi at the intersection and went home. On the way, Sato has been thinking about the true meaning of the story that Linnaeus told him.
