Dow and Carbon-Based Monkey Breeding Guidelines

Chapter 549 Sewer Folk Acoustician

The new passenger of the Silence spent dozens of hours adapting to the ship, until his thoughts and expressions gradually became coordinated, and he was finally able to talk and talk to Yale Liga fluently.He probably understood what an alliance is, what a star is, and why the ship under him came to his world from the first two places.The young man (42 years old, just coming of age for the residents of this place) has good learning ability and also displays a strong curiosity about the unknown.

At first, he asked tirelessly, eager to know if the myriad spheres in the void represented some kind of abode for spirits.Where is the place where people go after death?Or the place where people were before they were born?Why aren't they in a state of constant, eternal fall?What is it that holds them up and distorts the concept of proper direction?
Those questions were quite naive and lack of order, but Yareriga felt that his simple thinking mixed with religion and philosophy had something cute about it.So she always answers patiently.When Yi fully understood that Yale Liga and Qiaoqiao Tianyi were not monsters devouring the screams of the living in the local legend, but two pure strangers, his awe was much less than before, and he gradually showed friendship and compassion. close.In the end, he finally took the initiative to ask Yale Liga what she was looking for, and why the bolide fell from their world.

Allerica shows him the image of Joan.They are all the records left by Jing Huang when he entered and exited the monitoring area.With just one look, E can confirm that he has never seen such a person, nor has he heard any community talk about such a person.It's not hard to understand his determination, because the appearance difference between Jing Huang and his family couldn't be more obvious.Had such a man ever shown himself in the world, gossip would have spread quickly.

When they talked here, Yi showed a strange look.He said to Yale Liga: "The Immortal will know you."

This was a concept that Yarelica had never heard of.In all the knowledge she has acquired from Yi, she only knows that there are city-states and villages in this world, and of course there are substantial territories and nobles (the names are different in each place).However, none of them has a particularly big advantage.No one is recognized as the greatest king in the world, and people living in different regions have no strong desire to occupy other regions.That's partly because of the low contribution of fertility to food production, and partly because of disease.

The disease is inseparable from the place of birth.People have discovered a long time ago that once they leave the area where they were born for a long time, certain strange diseases are prone to attack, some people will feel dizzy, and some even bleed from the holes in their bodies.The countryside thought it was the curse of the land itself, but Yi had heard otherwise when working in the cities.Doctors claim it's because of "wrong prosody".Medicine believes that all things have a rhythm that needs to be echoed. If they are in the rhythm, the body will naturally sing together, and people will be healthy physically and mentally at that time.And if the rhythm is not in harmony with the body, it causes all kinds of disturbances.

Although this disorder is universal, it varies from person to person and from region to region.Some people can go to more places, and certain areas can migrate to each other without getting sick. Such areas are called "coherent lands".People everywhere, if they want their children to have more choices of where to settle, they will find ways to give birth to a large number of regions in a homogeneous manner.This behavior was legal or illegal in different eras, depending on how the managers at the time viewed the population conditions under their control.

Yi was born in an era when homogeneous birth was legal.His parents had lived all their lives in a farming village on the east side—that is, the direction farthest from that glowing magma fragment.They felt the signs of aging in their late 90s and decided to have a child or two.They have no special plans for their children's future, but they hope to go further than themselves.So they sold a batch of livestock and lived on the easternmost cliff for six years, during which they gave birth to two children, Yi and his sister.They each have their own advantages, Yi is more flexible, and his sister is stronger. At the same time, they also have the same ability, that is, they can stay on the edge of the world for a long time.Regardless of whether it is south, east or north, the cliffs leading directly to the back of the world seem to be homogeneous, so they can freely come and go around the whole world.

Yi's sister puts her talents to good use, becoming a fuel dealer who roams the fringes of the world.And Yi is a sound line layman currently serving in the northern camp, a profession that often faces harsh environments and life-threatening.He is very young in this industry, and he is also in good health, able to live independently, returning to take care of and accompany his parents regularly.But he is an introvert and doesn't like to socialize with people.Characters like his are common among metal carvers, for they are the ones most likely to hear the rhythms of the world.When they climbed along the cliff and hammered the sound-transmitting nails deep into the cliff, they could often hear the violent song of the underground, which is the rhythm of the earth in medical theory.However, since no one can be born in the ground, naturally no one can bear that voice.They just bear it, swinging the mace silently amidst the rumble.

For all of this, Yale Liga only saw a small part from Yi's memory.A kiss wasn't really a full share after all, but she wasn't about to take it any further.After chatting with Yi about the overall appearance of the world, she asked about the "immortals" he mentioned earlier.

"Are they the masters of the city?" she asked, "Why are they called the Immortals?"

Yi showed that strange look again.Now Yale Liga can roughly distinguish his emotions.She knew it wasn't fear, like talking about a terrible authority, but more like a joke, like Allerica had said something funny.

"They are not castellan," he said.He seemed to ponder for a moment, searching for the right words in his head, while his hands fiddled again.Yareriga read his hand movements, seeing the descriptions of "legendary", "credible", and "power" rolling through his hands.

"Your god?" She guessed again.

Yi shook her head. "They are men," he said with certainty. "Wise men."

"How is their status compared to the city lord?"

"They're not interested. They only deal with big disasters."

Yale Liga asked him to talk about the catastrophe, but Yi shook his head helplessly at her.It has been a long time since a catastrophe, he said, nor has there been a war.There had been a harsh war before he was born, and another world, called the House of Frost, had come to attack the Central World where they were.The invaders were finally defeated, and the spoils are still placed in the centers of the great cities of the world, where everyone who passes through them can see them.Even though it was many years ago, people only need to see the spoils to know that the ancient wars were real, because there were not such creations in their world.People also agreed that without those immortals living in seclusion in the back of the world, it would be difficult to win this war.

The stories of these hermits attracted Yale Liga's attention, but if the legend Yi told her was to be believed, the old people had existed in the world for at least hundreds of years.There are five hundred of them in total, some say five hundred and fifty five, and they have been stationed at the upside-down bottom of the central world for a long time. Only the masters of sixteen cities know how to contact them.Yareriga has no clue as to the identity of these hermits, but given their number and history, she guesses they are not Jinghuang, or the 550 that Jinghuang is looking for.

"What do they think of outsiders?" she asked Yi. "If they know we're here, what will they do to us?"

Yi couldn't answer her question.He had never seen a real immortal in the past, nor had he encountered the kind of situation that Yale Liga proposed.But he said with some hesitation that the old man was only responsible for dealing with catastrophes in the past. If Yale Liga just came to find someone, maybe they would not be interested.When the bolide fell 30 years ago, they didn't respond.

Allerica heard all he had to say.By then Yi had been on the Silence for more than fifty hours.In order to avoid his physical discomfort, Yale Liga put him back on the ground and asked him to wait in the temporary camp outside.She herself told Qiaoqiao Tianyi everything she knew from the exchange, and discussed how they should proceed to the next step.

"Are you sure that meteor is the child?" Qiaoqiao Tianyi said, "30 years ago? I know that the flow rate of time here is very different from that outside, maybe the deeper the place, the bigger it will be, but if the child has been down for 30 years Hey, why hasn't he found the foundling? God, do we have to chase another 30 years? Oh, wait, how long is their 30 years?"

"Using our time, it's about 15 hours."

Qiaoqiao Tianyi weakly shook its wings twice.

"I can take it," she said firmly, "but I kind of miss the sun. Any color, the kind that fills the sky with light."

"I'm thinking about whether we should just go after it."

"You mean we're going home now? After we've gotten to this point?"

"No. I think, since we may still be chasing for 15 hours, maybe we should stay here a little longer, so as not to miss some important information. Do you think we should meet those undead? They are very familiar with the situation below. Should know better."

"Agreed. But do you think that would be dangerous?"

No one can draw a conclusion.But Allerica had an idea in mind.She mentioned to Qiaoqiao Tianyi what Yi said about the ancient war, as well as the loot placed in the center of the city. Through the evidence that amazed the locals, they might be able to infer the power of the immortal.

Qiaoqiao Tianyi fully supports this idea.She immediately planned to arrange for the detector to check, but Yale Liga stopped her before that.

"I wanted to do it differently," she said. "The detector is easy to spot in crowded places, and it tends to lose details."

"Yarai, we've gone too far to stop the car on the track. I don't approve of you using a spaceship to conquer a city. No one of real character will support bullying anywhere, and they are not simple microbial structures .They have feelings and intelligence, but they are not born in a good place. Even if we may not be able to rescue them, we should not treat them like wild hooters."

Allerica listened to her traveling companion's earnest remark, and then smiled maliciously.Qiaoqiao Tianyi stared at her vigilantly, his mane fluttering towards the ceiling.

"I'm not going to use the spaceship." She blinked. "I'll go by myself."

"what?"

"I'm planning to go to the city to see it myself." Yale Liga explained, "Go over and approach the spoil like a pilgrim. Then..."

"Shooting and analysis?"

"Perhaps just get it on board. The White Tower would be willing to buy it."

The warped Tianyi's mane was completely unfurled.She squatted solemnly on the ground, and said in a drawn-out voice, "Ya———"

Allerica had to admit it wasn't a very successful joke.After two full hours, Qiaoqiao Tianyi let her out of the Silence.Refusing to wear a camouflage suit and walk upright like Homo sapiens, the spaceship specialists attached cameras to her chest and back to take part in her tour of the city.

She finds Yi wandering in the camp and asks him to take her to the nearest city.But Yi stared at her blankly, as if she had never seen anyone dressed like this in her life.

Yale Liga touched her ears contentedly, and now they were covered with a bulging fake skin.Her hooves were wrapped in padded iron boots, and she looked like a native.Of course, she didn't forget to cover her face with a little active fake skin to make her features closer to the locals.

"How do I look?" she asked her new friend.

The latter did not answer, but slowly moved his stiff gaze upwards, staring at the top of her head.Allerica can cover her horns in a number of ways, such as an optical visor.But instead of doing that, she wrapped a reddish turban around her head, leaving only the tips of her two horns exposed, and fastened it with the silver chain in her fanny pack.In Yi's memory, she had seen women dressed like this.

After a while, Yi came back to God.He told Yale Ligan that it was the aristocratic dress of the city-women dressed in this way, made headdresses and hats from the skulls of rare animals, sometimes complete taxidermy of small animals, or the wings of hundreds of insects.Yareriga's horn certainly looks unique, and one would guess that it was the skull of a very rare animal.That would no doubt attract a lot of attention, people would ask her for her name and origin, and even ask to spend the night with her.

"Then tell them so," said Allerica, "tell them that I come from a city on a high land, and that I have come to them to learn—I am a specialist in the rhythms of the world, and if they will Helps a lot, maybe I'll give them a sleepover."
