Chapter 842 Lin Xue’s Death Star
"Then let's start giving blessings." Lilina clapped her hands cheerfully, which immediately focused everyone's attention. We saw this girl spinning around the two babies, attracting us. After being sufficiently curious, he stood still, scratched the back of his head and muttered, "By the way, how does blessing work?"
"Dingdang doesn't know either..."
The little girl sitting above her head also shook her head sleepily.
"Eh? I remember that the goddess gave me a few pamphlets on religious etiquette..."
"Dingdang bought it during a bookstore sale. I didn't know what it was for at the time, but I bought it first because it was cheap, and then I gave it to you - but Lilina, didn't you also write a lot of pamphlets? ? They are all religious ceremonies and so on..."
Lilina scratched her hair and almost scratched her smug head off: "I'll go, who remembers those? Why else would I be publishing new versions of the Bible all the time? I'd just forget the old ones."
Dingdang immediately exclaimed: "Wow, what exactly is Dingdang's teaching?"
"Well, this is indeed a problem."
"...Why don't you go find a heroic spirit and ask? They should know Dingdang's teachings, right?"
"Well, let's just say this when the time comes: Please tell me who I am."
"Dingdang thinks this is feasible."
Lilina: "It's so shameful..."
Everyone was dumbfounded at this time. When Lilina ran up happily to make a fool of herself, I thought this girl was going to do something bad, but I never expected that she and Dingdang would be able to bring things to such an extent when they cooperated. She was so unreliable. It should be rare in the world for such gods and priests to have a spectrum of gods and priests. They actually have to discuss at the last moment what their own teachings are - this is not terrible. What is even more terrible is that after the discussion, they still haven't come to a conclusion.
Dingdang held his little arms and sat upright on Lilina's head, thinking seriously about the first article of his doctrine, but I feel that this little thing has no doctrine at all, even though Lilina wrote it to her. There were so many Bibles, but Dingdang didn’t even know what those Bibles looked like. Well, it seems now that Lilina herself doesn’t even know what those Bibles look like. The two completely unreliable masters and servants murmured and discussed for several minutes. In the end, Lilina made the decisive move. The little girl clapped her hands and ran to the baby chung: "How about I give them both a transport bead?" Well, I lit it myself."
As soon as we heard this, we couldn't bear to see it and hurriedly evacuated the scene. We couldn't stay here any longer. Maybe these two little guys were going to throw people to what extent.
After the christening ceremony of the newborn baby, there was a large-scale celebration in Monster Town. Many monsters brought out all the weird gadgets handmade at home. Large quantities were sold and small quantities were sold. Relatives and friends gave gifts to each other, and the streets and alleys were full of non-human creatures wearing colorful and joyful clothes. Occasionally, a few humans dressed themselves up to look like other people. I led a group of girls from home, big and small, through the lively and festive atmosphere. In the monster town, I suddenly felt that this was the reason why this group of monsters volunteered to help hold this baptism ceremony: they just felt that they had found another reason to have fun.
Later, after chatting with several monsters, this conjecture was basically confirmed.
Of course, I also asked about why the Atlanteans have such a good relationship with these monsters. I am very interested in this question, because the Atlanteans are actually very difficult to get along with other races. This is even more serious for them than the citizens of the pan-galactic civilization community who are recognized to have low emotional intelligence. This sounds unexpected, but it is also reasonable. The Atlanteans are almost a race artificially cultivated by the old empire. Therefore, they consider themselves to be creatures created by gods. They regard the Apostles of Xiling as creator gods. They have a subconscious sense of self-respect for their status as gods. , this is not offensive and condescending, but it has also become a small obstacle when they communicate with ordinary races: they are always used to correcting the words and deeds of other ordinary races as servants of gods, especially when the other party When they did not show enough respect to the Xiling Apostles, they had a very obvious common thought, that is, you don't have to believe in my gods, but if you want to say something bad about my gods, I will fight with you to the end. People with this kind of personality have trouble communicating with the outside world. The second point is that the Atlantis people's old-fashioned and strict religious life also kept other races at a distance. They have a strict religious class. Each member of the race has two identities from birth: believer and warrior. On the basis of these two identities, they pursue an absolutely unquestionable "Stairway to Olympus" class system; they have Strict rules and regulations revolve around the belief in the Xiling civilization. Each member must strictly abide by the religious regulations handed down since ancient times; they also have a stubborn mind that is difficult to change. Any Atlantean will maintain their own The religious habits of chng are the greatest meaning of life. In addition to the will of the "Great God", they exclude any outsiders from criticizing their living habits and ways of speaking, let alone making any changes. Ares calls the Xiling Apostle the "Great God" ", calling the highly irradiated water filled with psionic energy holy water, and calling those frightening biochemical transformation surgeries "divine gifts". These ideas and statements are almost unreasonable in the eyes of ordinary races, but Atlantis The people here are happy to maintain these claims for another 700,000 years.
Of course, I think another most important reason for the difficulty in communication between Atlantis and other races is their height... To be fair, I really feel pressured to talk to a humanoid creature that is almost two or three times my size. It’s huge. Every time I talk to Ares, I can experience the feeling of seeing the world from Pandora’s perspective. When talking to Zeus, it’s even worse. It becomes a Ding Dong perspective... So when the Zentraedi people come to visit Shadow City They all have to prepare their own small bodies, otherwise they can't even afford the ticket.
As I was thinking about it, I realized that I was off topic again.
"Why are monsters so familiar with Atlanteans?" Lin Xue accompanied me while wandering around the festive streets of Monster Town, and said thoughtfully, "Indeed, no matter how you look at them, they should be nothing. The monsters all share a common language and have no rules. They are all liberal and willful, but the Atlanteans are religious fanatics from top to bottom. The whole family leads a life full of rules and precepts like ascetic monks, but they just get into trouble. Together—it was actually typed.”
"A fight? Did a conflict break out between them?" I asked quickly in shock.
We had been busy fighting outside for more than a month, and even Sivis was pulled to the front line. Lin Xue was the only one taking care of Shadow City, so she knew more about what was going on here than I did. Now I was shocked when I heard what she said.
"It's not like there's a conflict. It's not like you don't know that there won't be any conflict in this place." Lin Xue rolled her eyes at me. "Don't be surprised. It's that drunk girl with a cone on her head. She's doing it again. Originally, she wanted to compete with a few Atlantis strongmen, but as the arena got bigger and bigger, she decided to hold the world's best martial arts tournament, which lasted for nearly half a month. There are many monsters who like to compete with others, but they are too strong and usually cannot find opponents who can show their full potential. The people of Atlantis are also born for fighting. Ares leads half of the warriors to follow you on the expedition. , the remaining soldiers who were left behind were also moping around, and the two groups of people just got along with each other - do you know why all the monsters were scared away when we first came here? It was because they set up an arena at that time and asked the urban management brigade to fight I was punished several times..."
The more I listened, the more surprised I became. I thought to myself that this was really a friendship between strangers, and at the same time I was still wondering: "Urban Management Brigade? There must be half of Lingmeng there, she..."
"It's just to catch one of our own people in a trap. It's not like Lingmeng didn't know about that incident," Lin Xue spread her hands, "In order to collect more fines, she waited until the last game was about to start before taking people over. Who doesn’t want to watch the finals and pay double the fine..."
Me: "...Then why doesn't anyone beat this girl up after she goes through so much trouble?"
"It's all a joke anyway. The monsters never care about these things. They just want to live and be happy. Believe it or not, they would still be happy even if the finals suddenly changed to Keno's friendly role as Xiong Kudu Dashi. ? Youkai, you just have different values, Reimu also has this sense of propriety - she never collects protection fees from goblins."
I listened to Lin Xue telling myself about the Coca-Cola things that happened in Shadow City in the past month. I deeply regretted that I had not caught up with so many interesting things. I thought to myself, what should Qian Qian do if she finds out about this? What's even more regretful is that she would demand to hold another world's best martial arts tournament on the spot - it's not something she can't do. And after sighing, I was still a little sleepy. It was about Lin Xue: "Girl Lin, you seem to be familiar with these monsters? Are you just hanging out here?"
"Where else can we go?" Lin Xue muttered, "In Shadow City, you can read the battle reports from the front line at any time, but at home you can only listen to the radio."
When I heard this, I felt a little touched in my heart.
It seems that Lin Xue spent more than a month in Shadow City and Avalon. It was like she was with us hn all day long when I was at home. When I was not at home, she was here waiting for news from the front line. , although her prophetic ability allows her to know the situation in another world at any time, but - this girl is obviously not in the Shadow City for intelligence, but for a certain sense of security, right?
Just when I was sighing that Lin Xue also had such a delicate side and was as uneasy as a young girl waiting for her lover to come back from the war, Lin Xue added: "Of course, the more important thing is that I bet Apollo more than two hundred dollars." Yuan, I’ve been waiting here for the finals.”
You see, you need a good heart to talk to Lin Xue.
As they walked, they unknowingly left the bustling area. Qianqian and the others were attracted by the temple-fair-like atmosphere just now. Now they don’t know where they have gone, and Dingdong doesn’t know where they are either. We were taking them there at that time. She and Lilina were thrown on the baptismal table and escaped on their own. Sister Pandora was dragged by her elder sister to buy clothes. Today, the two little girls suffered a big blow. They saw that they were born almost as big as themselves. creature, so my sister felt that she needed to make up for the two unlucky short winter melons... Calculating it this way, in the end, Lin Xue was the only one hanging around with her.
Oh, one more thing, there is a dishonest little guy sitting on my shoulder.
"Girl, is there anything you want? I'll buy it for you."
I weighed my shoulders and said to the little doll who was busy pulling out my white hair (first dye it white, then pull it out).
"No," Mercury Lamp shook his head, and his long silver hair crackled in my face, "Boring."
Then can you stop saying that while looking hard at the stall selling dolls next to you and pulling my hair as hard as you can?
Later, I bought a doll for Mercury Lamp that was almost as big as her. I don’t know why there are doll sellers in the monster town, but anyway, the little doll was very satisfied with this gift. She put this with The fat blond girl who was the same height as herself held her up high, looking left and right in the sun, completely forgetting how much trouble she made every time she was lifted up, looking at the doll (absolutely correct) holding a doll on her shoulders. ) I think this is really cool: two people of the same kind have begun to exchange feelings.
"I think this doll is uglier than True Red," Mercury Lamp told me seriously, "but she should be smarter than True Red."
Why are you still so resentful of Zhenhong? Your sister will cry when she hears it, okay?
Mercury lamp enthusiastically expressed her life plan for her new doll on my shoulder. As a doll herself, she had unrealistic ideas about this ordinary, inanimate doll. For example, she planned to let the latter learn to learn in the near future. Linear algebra and organic synthesis theory—these two terms were from the textbook that she had never read since I brought it home. Although she had no idea what they meant, it did not affect this little guy's ability to They are listed as required subjects for dolls.
"The name sounds awesome. It's probably similar to learning to write. Then I'll practice writing Sandora's name, and she'll be learning line xng algebra next to me."
The little doll said this while pinching the doll's nose.
Should I be grateful that the doll can't think? Otherwise it should have become extinct by now.
Just like my usual boring stroll, today I still followed my feelings without any destination, and unknowingly walked into the depths of the forest with Lin Xue. Monster Town has this characteristic: it is connected to the big forest behind it. There is no dividing line at all, and the urban-rural fringe is everywhere.
When he reacted, the sparkling light of Fairy Nv Lake was already in front of him.
"Wow, I've walked so far without realizing it."
I put down the mercury lamp from my shoulder and let her walk by herself, and we came to the shore of the lake with Lin Xue.
The place where heroic spirits often gather on weekdays seems to be very quiet now, because this time is neither for meals nor for lunch break. Most of those heroic spirits have their own part-time jobs in the Shadow City, or have to go on missions, and they should be busy outside now. , just left a quiet space for Lin Xue and I, um, that’s right, space for two.
Mercury Lamp started talking to his doll about the maintenance of Titan Mercury Lamp.
I looked at Lin Xue helplessly and said in a low voice: "What if the child is the third party shared by the husband and wife..."
Lin Xue picked up a small stone and threw it over: "Who is married to you? But it's really rare to be quiet today. How long has it been since we were alone?"
I thought for a while: "It must have been a long time. It's not like you don't know how noisy the group of people at home are."
Lin Xue scratched her hair: "I seem to be noisy too."
"Second only to Qian Qian, basically the same as Lilina."
I answered honestly.
The topics between the two of them went on like this. It was like this when getting along with Lin Xue. It seemed that there was always no common topic, but in fact, the lack of topics was our greatest tacit understanding. With Sandora, When we are together, we feel the throbbing of heart to heart, when we are with Qian Qian, we have all kinds of endless joy, and when we are with Lin Xue, we just keep bickering - and both of them enjoy it. It's weird, but we all enjoy this.
Sitting side by side with my girlfriend and friend on the bank of the quiet Fairy Lake, on the lawn behind me is my "girlfriend" who is holding a nearly one-meter-tall doll and mumbling. She bickers with her girlfriend and occasionally answers some inexplicable questions from the mercury lamp. The problem is, I think my life pursuit is probably like this. hn's goal of eating and waiting for death is slightly higher than that of the third-in-command of a township enterprise, but it is basically the same as Qianqian. In the leisurely atmosphere, our topic gradually extended to endless topics, and finally I remembered a question that I was a little curious about recently.
"By the way, Girl Lin, why didn't you come over to help us when we were fighting outside this time?"
I randomly found a stone and threw it towards the calm lake. I didn't control the strength well and knocked over a Pikachu who was drinking water by the lake. The little monster Ding Dong made on a whim opened his teeth and claws at me and showed his middle finger. He ran away in a hurry, while Lin Xue looked at me strangely: "Why do you ask this?"
"Because I don't think you have the kind of character that can give me peace of mind." I replied.
Lin Xue couldn't help but help the trouble at hand? This is not in line with her status as a troublemaker. Usually, let alone going out to fight, she would lead a group of people over to watch if I took a long time to make a bottle of soy sauce. But this time in the world of Mobrado, we almost It's shocking that she didn't even call me - is this still my arrogant young lady?
Lin Xue lowered her head and thought for a moment. She didn't expect that she would answer my simple question so carefully. After my curiosity jumped out of my mind, she raised her head, shrugged, and said with a meaningless look: "Because I went there Just die."
