Chapter 19: The Child Who Sees and Can't See

The lizard cart flies to the clouds, but Rick doesn't feel cold. There is a large amount of fine powder floating around the car, which is not usually felt, and can only be noticed when it is reflected. The powder didn't seem to carry anything, but as he watched the house beneath him become the size of a brick, he wasn't afraid he would fall. He found himself with an unwarranted confidence that if he fell, he would be picked up by something. It was as if something invisible in the air had secretly told him about it.

Normally he would have suspected that he had some kind of mental illness, but now that he was with the elves, as far as he knew, it was normal.

Books and experiences are only aids to the elves, and the main way they learn is from the nature that surrounds them, as the Rick has just experienced.

However, Xike is human after all, and he is not as sure as the elf, and although he knows that he will not fall to his death, he is careful not to let himself fall.

Asa said, "Mr. Ekinawa, we are going to change our destination. She said to Xi Ke in a tone that she would have known what she was talking about, "Elder Li intervened, and now Nanfei can't touch that person. 」

At least he knew that Ekinava wasn't referring to him, and he looked at the lizard pulling the cart in front of him, "Its name is Ekinawa?"

"Of course, of course he called that name. Do you need me to tell you my name? I think you need to specify which name I'm going to call you. 」

"Call me Rick. 」

"So you don't need me to call you Mage, or the other earliest name, or do you want to call you a vagabond?"

"That name has been lost for a while. Rick said. He was referring to the "vagabond."

Elves often refer to titles, titles, nicknames, and various other terms that represent the state of life as human names. For them, the noun that can be used to refer to someone is the name. It is said that even the words "good", "bad", "beautiful", and "ugly" are also used as names by them, but because too many people have them, they are not often used to call people. And their definition of the word "person" is very special, different from the definition of "person" in all common human languages.

"The last time I met a human, he asked someone to call him General Manager, and then another human took his name, and he got angry. I still don't know which of your names can be taken away?"

Cheek pursed his lips and said, "Strictly speaking, there is no name that cannot be taken away from the human race. 」

"It's a wonderful creature, I still think so. But we have to learn to adapt, after all, there are still many people in human beings, and people have to help each other, and to help each other, they have to understand each other. Ah Sa glanced at Syk and said, "I think you might be able to get that name back several times. 」

"I don't deny that, but it's better to call me Xike. Rick said.

"Well, that's your name at the moment where you're least threatened by others?"

"It's the name on the ID card. I don't think the state will be bored enough to run to deprive me of this name. Rick's goblin language was unfamiliar, and he spoke in the Aitaro language.

Ah Sa understood. She said, "All right. 」

Mr. Ekinawa turned left, and the setting sun was behind them.

"My name is Sana Naralo. It's okay if you call me Assa. 」

Nick tried it and found that he couldn't pronounce the string smoothly and standardly, so he was as good as he could.

"The other one could be called Ami, and we all came up with a human name to get her used to being human. 」

"Well, it seems a little late to ask, where is this car going?"

Asa spoke in a tone that did not seem like answering a question that needed to be pondered, but like reading out what had been written on a piece of paper: "Go back to the Valley of the Kings." "Valley of the Kings" is what humans call the "Fairy Dominion".

"Is it okay to bring me in?"

"If you have a relationship, you can't get in. 」

Xi Ke couldn't imagine what would happen if he couldn't get in, and in short, Ah Sa seemed to mean that she thought it didn't matter if Xi Ke went in, so Xi Ke didn't care.

He looked down at the scenery and noticed that the hues of the earth seemed to be wrong, and there was something strange that could not be explained. Because Xi Ke did not study art, and his literary background was not good, he could not describe it, in fact, the colors of the earth he saw now, whether it was pond water or grass, looked more vivid than the scenery he was used to, and the strong sense of presence seemed to collide.

The lizard cart continued to fly, passing through a city, next to a world-famous old clock tower, and Xi Ke exclaimed, "Why did you come to Duozhou?" Because of the difference in latitude, the sunlight is different, and the basic tone of the scenery is different. He saw that most of the people walking on the street were the Duozhou people, and there were some Gaizhou and Inzhou people. The signs were all in words he didn't recognize.

"It's faster to go this way. Ah Sa said.

"How the hell did you get here?" said Rick more. Just going to a neighboring country, why did it suddenly appear over a different continent half a world away?

"That's it. Asa said this in a tone as if he were asking a superfluous question. Then she shouted, "Ami, come out and say hello to the mayor. 」

Ami got out of the carriage and stood behind Nick and waved to the sky, "Hello Mayorβ€”"

Nick didn't see any guys in suits talking to Ami, he only saw sun-like rays in the clouds, but the sun wasn't in that direction. Thinking of the sun, Rick paused and thought. Extrapolating from the current position of the sun, the time may be a little before noon or it may be in the afternoon.

It was dusk. Even if you take into account the time difference in different places, it still shouldn't be this time.

Rick was incredulous. He covered his eyes and let go again after five seconds, and there was still a foreign street underneath. He considered using his psychic vision, but he thought that people who were too curious would not end well, and that he had only been taught this lesson for long, so he dismissed the idea.

Ah Sa said, "Xike, go in and help Ami set the plates, we should have Chinese food." 」

Nick got into the car. There was a mezzanine in the carriage, so when he first came in, he felt like the roof was going to hit his head, but he took a few more steps forward, and the roof was getting farther and farther away from his head until he felt it was just right.

The walls of the carriage are pale yellow, with the same pearl sheen. Woven carpets with animal motifs hang from the windows and in the middle of the windows. There is a rug of egg yolk wool on the floor. At the bottom of the carriage is a wooden door with a map of the world hanging on it. There were low cabinets on either side, none of which looked fixed, but Rick hadn't felt the lizard's movement since he stepped into the carriage, and he suspected that even if the carriage was upside down, the cabinets wouldn't move a bit.

A long, low wooden table sits in the middle of the carriage. When he first came in, he thought the table was knee-high and the chair was child-sized, but when he got closer, the table was up to his thigh, and when he sat down in the chair, it was just the right height.

Ami was busy taking the porcelain plates out of the cabinet and putting them out, and Xi Ke also came to help, and he raised his hands and feet to take down a stack of bowls from the low cabinet one hundred and twenty centimeters high.

They set up eight pairs of chopsticks and eight plates. Ami went to the door at the bottom end, brought out a lot of food in a large clay pot and bamboo basket, and placed it in the middle of the table.

Ami shouted, "It's time to eat!"

A lot of kids don't know where they came from. They suddenly stood up from squatting on the ground playing with toys, got up from the action of lying on the ground and drawing, and turned from the place where there should be no one to the table.

The table was filled all at once, leaving only Ami and Rick to sit in place.

Xi Ke stood in his seat stunned. He knew they were human children, but he couldn't see them clearly. When he stared at those people, he was pretty sure he saw them, he saw the color of their hair, the color of their eyes, the shape of their faces, the appearance of their skeletons...... But as soon as he came to his senses, he forgot everything, not even what they were wearing.

He also heard the voices of the children, heard them talking to Ami, but he couldn't remember what they said, and when he did, he didn't even know what language they were in.

Only two children he could see clearly and remember. One is a boy with long hair, with an overage steadiness on his face, and he doesn't move much when he sits in his seat. He was wearing clothes that were too small with several holes, and his nails were either too long or broken. His hair showed no signs of trimming, and when he lowered his head, it would block his view. It was a natural white blonde hair that was quite rare among the Eithara people, and the hair quality was also very good. Although he is still a child, Xi Ke sees that his facial features are quite exquisite, and if he can grow up safely, he will be a beauty. Rick looked at the condition of his nails and worried that his health might not be good.

The other is a girl with short black hair and a hair cut like a boy. I wore a bunch of pierced ears at a young age. Dressed in a bright purple sequined outfit, it seems that it is a leather jacket and leather pants that are worth a lot. He even wore heavy makeup. She looked upset and kept frowning.

Syk sat down, he was as tall as the children. He noticed the strangeness, but didn't think there was any need to make a fuss.

He is more mindful of children who can't see clearly. Ami also sat down and was distributing food. Rick asked her, "Why can't I see some people clearly?"

"Those people are related if you know them. Ami said. The tone of her reply was very similar to that of Ah Sa, and she was saying something that was taken for granted.

"How's that relationship?" asked Rick.

"Relationships that can't happen. 」

Xi Ke took Ami's answer to heart and planned to check the book later.

Ami distributes hot barbecue, which is meat that Xike has never tasted, and the seasoning is made of fruit. There are also grilled fish and oddly shaped fruits. Xi Ke got a fruit that looked a bit like a small watermelon, the skin was black and white, but when it was broken, it looked like an orange petal by petal. The seeds are large and the flesh is a bit spicy.

He didn't recognize this fruit, and there were many other fruits that he didn't recognize. So when he finished eating, he put the seed in his pocket.
