"Don't turn a blind eye and say nothing..."
Aiwass nodded with interest: "Mr. Mu and Wizard Zhutang...May Si Zhu protect you."
It sounded like a very memorable feature, but he didn’t know these two people.
If you think about it, at least they are not bosses, and at least they cannot be too dangerous people.
Zhu Tang closed his eyes, put his right hand on his chest, nodded slightly as a casual salute, and said in the slightly unfamiliar Star Antimony language: "Thank you, Mr."
That was not Taichu. Human etiquette, but etiquette within the Herasl cultural circle.
But Aiwass switched to Taichu language: "Are you two coming from Anxi?"
This was the first time he saw Taichu people, which made Aiwas very surprised. excited.
Hearing this, Zhu Tang’s face suddenly showed a look of astonishment.
His eyeballs moved, as if he wanted to open them and take a look. But in the end, he still kept his eyes closed, and his tone became surprised and high-spirited: "Sir, can you speak Taichu dialect? He is quite knowledgeable."
His Taichu dialect is similar to that of Aiwass Compared to that, it’s not very standard. It’s somewhat mixed with the flavor of Nanjing dialect.
Aiwass listened and said with a smile: "I know a little bit, but I'm afraid my speaking is not very standard."
He also mixed in some dialect, which made Zhu Don laughed, visibly more relaxed.
And when he was relaxing, he had a touch of arrogance - a sense of self-confidence that clearly comes from coming from a big city and in the same cultural circle.
But when he was about to say something, he was suddenly startled and startled.
His right thumb quickly tapped the other fingers a few times, and then said somewhat cautiously: "Can I touch Mr.'s horns?"
He obviously didn't know how to do it. He didn't open his eyes, but he knew that Aiwass had horns.
Hearing this, Cardinal Galatea suddenly looked back at Aiwass.
She can obviously understand Taichu’s words. At this time, he asked Aiwass if this was appropriate.
"It doesn't matter."
Aiwass comforted Galatea, and then lowered his head slightly: "Why not."
Then he lowered his head slightly. . Although Wizard Zhutang couldn't see it, he seemed to have some vague feelings. After a little groping, he confirmed the antlers on Aiwass's forehead, as well as its strange temperature... and the strange feeling of being healed when holding it.
This seemed to frighten him, almost as if he had been electrocuted. He immediately stood up and saluted Aiwass - different from the breast-stroking ceremony popularized by Star Antimony and Narcissus before. This time he was extremely upright, bowed with both hands in front of him, and then knelt down three times. After each kneeling, he kowtowed three times while muttering something in a low voice.
That is the ceremony of three bows and nine knocks - this kind of etiquette is rarely used even for monarchs. This kind of ceremony is only used for the emperor and gods.
And Aiwass did not stop him.
This etiquette is exactly in line with the sacred number of candle holders. This is obviously the etiquette for Si Zhu.
As the son of Si Zhu, he can really afford it.
After all, the nine pillar gods are universal throughout the world. Except for the Silver Crowned Dragon, all pillar gods were born before the birth of mankind, and every ancient civilization that has been passed down to this day has at least one pillar god to protect it. It's just that the names they call them are different in different countries... Their real names and honorary names are not fixed innately. For example, "Sizhu", "Twin Mirror", etc. are all names given by elves, and they are also named in different places. There will be different names.
For example, Sand Timepiece was named by the elves, while the Herasl people called it "Hourglass" and the Taichu people called it Zhuanxu. Although according to Aiwass's understanding and speculation, the way of devotion should not be too popular in the Taichu Empire... Taichu should be a country that mainly pursues the way of balance, but it is still a pillar god after all.
In the Herasl cultural circle, the main reason why Si Zhu is regarded as the supreme god is not because Si Zhu opened up the nine source rivers... but because the elves respect Si Zhu as the supreme god. The main reason is that the elves are the sons of the giant tree, and the giant tree is the apostle of Si Zhu.
The Herasl Empire is too close to the Theocracy, and the entire Herasl civilization is basically based on the elves. Therefore, their naming style, language, culture, and beliefs are close to the elves.
Outside the Theocracy’s radiation circle, Si Zhu is not necessarily the Supreme God.
But one thing is fixed - nine is the ultimate number, and nine is the supreme number. The theory of sacred numbers brought by the Nine Pillars God is universal everywhere.
After the grand ceremony, Wizard Zhu Tang obviously became much more honest.
He closed his eyes tightly and did not dare to open them at all. Instead, he lowered his head and preached slowly and word for word in Taichu dialect as standard as possible: "Mr. Mu and I met in Xi'an, but we None of them are Parthians.
“Pathites... are all living a very hard life, especially recently. There seemed to be a drought over there, and they were very short of water, so they didn't even have much food. I saw people starve to death and then expose their corpses in the desert, where they were dried into a horrific appearance. People were also seen eating each other. Even in the year of great calamity, it was nothing more than this, but those benefactors even built fountains in the center of the city... But if anyone tried to drink or steal the water inside, they would be captured, sold into slavery, or made into Supplies for the ceremony.
"Over there in rest, the words of the good Lords are the only law. If you don't obey the 'good Lords', you may be captured and sold as goods; if you obey the good Lords, you will lose your dignity. , and do some immoral things.
"I don't like it, and Mr. Mu does the same. So we want to help these civilians, at least let them survive. But we offended the local benefactors, so we were surrounded and suppressed. Fortunately, we all have the skills to break out. But we broke out in the wrong direction in the desert, and it was not easy to go back... so we could only continue to the west. "
"Do you want to go back? "
Aiwass asked.
Zhu Tang smiled bitterly: "When the fallen leaves return to their roots, who doesn't want to go home... Besides, if I don't go back, something might happen to my family. That's why I want to come here... I have enough With the money, I can hire a team to send me back across the desert."
Hearing this, Aiwass suddenly fell silent.
But Zhu Tang was still talking: "To tell you the truth, I was originally a sinner. I was exiled by the emperor three times to a small border town adjacent to Anxi. The winter solstice is the 'Dark Night Festival' of Anxi. , they will stay up together on this day to spend 'the longest night of the year', because every night will be shorter than this day, so 'everything will be better'. > "I was invited by my friends to come and watch the ceremony. It's all because of my meddling... that I ended up like this. "
"If you were given another chance," Cardinal Galatea suddenly spoke, asking in the ancient Taichu language, "would you still meddle in this business? ”
“...control. "
After a short silence, Zhu Tang still said firmly: "A gentleman should do something and not do something when he is alive. Turning a blind eye is also unjust! "
Although Aiwass didn't know what he encountered, he had roughly guessed it.
"I understand. "
Aiwass nodded: "I will help. ”
He may not have time to go to Taichu, but he will definitely go to the ancient kingdom of Anxi later.
The main concern of Wizard Zhu is whether he will be offended by himself when he goes back There is a real possibility that the good lords may be ambushing and setting up traps. After all, although the good lords are fighting against each other, they are essentially people of the same class. It is very likely that such "rebellious people" will openly oppose the good lords. Being exposed and jointly attacked.
This is true even if he is a great wizard who has transcended the path. The ancient country of Anxi has a lot of background, even the fifth-level powerhouses.
Let alone the fourth level... Even if he is the fifth level, it is not that easy to fight against the evil intentions of a country.
Not to mention that he is a moral person. People are even more constrained in their actions.
But I have to say that if he wants to make money to hire a team that can send him back, he probably won’t be able to go back even if his family is dead. In the case where there may be hostility, it must be at least the fifth level to safely send him.
The Pope's words may be useful, but they may not be useful, especially since Aiwass has already talked to Bei. When Cardinal Lizarius said "let's do it", the relationship between the Theocracy and the Parthian Kingdom is likely to deteriorate.
Aiwas is the only one who can help him. < /p>
But all this is based on the condition that this ruins can be developed normally...
But seeing that the people recruited by Master Insect Amber are becoming more and more valuable, Aiwass has realized Arriving at this ruins is probably not going to be easy.
He has already made up his mind——
The purple equipment dug out from the ruins this time is the second priority.
The main task is to protect these people... don't let any of them reduce their numbers.
It may seem difficult.
But for the eternal pope, this matter is not difficult.
"We will set off tomorrow," Aiwass looked at the people, raised his hand and gave a calming blessing, "Have a good rest tonight, everyone."
Unknowingly, Aiwass, who joined last, became the captain of the team.
