Chapter 4 Enlightenment
Chen Yi returned home with her purse in her pocket, and met Hedwig's surprised gaze.

"Brother, did you go panning for silver coins too?"

"Oh, how do you know?" Chen Yi moved the interlayer of the cabinet and took out a small wooden box from inside.

Forty-six marked silver Reeds fell into the box, and there was a crisp clang that taught people happiness. Hedwig couldn't help showing her silver teeth, and covered her mouth for a while, which was a little too reserved.

"Good luck, thank you, my lord, for your blessing." Hedwig clasped her hands together as if praying. ,

The one-piece dress on her body was ankle-length.

Chen Yi felt it was funny. Is my sister praying to herself?
"I heard that there is no need to pay the religious tax for punishment." Chen Yi said casually.

Hedwig said in surprise: "Really? Are you telling the truth?"

"This money came from the baron throwing the collected taxes into the river. You see, it's all marked." Chen Yi explained
"May the Lord bless him." Hedwig said sincerely.

Hedwig's unintentional words fell into her ears, Chen Yi's thoughts moved, and she immediately smiled: "The Lord will do this, His will."

Putting away the small wooden box where the money was hidden, Chen Yi tidied up her clothes, while Hedwig reminded where the clothes were wrinkled and the neckline was not straightened.

Sitting in front of the bookstall, Chen Yi flipped through the "Interpretation of Gukshi Language" that he hadn't finished reading yet. As a student of the Chinese Language Department in his previous life, he was naturally very interested in the languages ​​of this world.

Turn to a page, and it tells the origin of the name of the Kexi people.

Chen Yi keenly grasped the name "Hedwig".

Hedwig Pune.

In the ancient Greek language, Hedwig means war and turmoil, and when extended to the meaning of true religion, it also means "taboo of suffering".And Pune, which seems to be derived from the pagan Yavin language, means "pure".

Hedwig, pure taboo.
"The Gukshi people who have not yet converted to our lord believe that their names have the effect of prophecy, and many names in the Kashi language have been handed down from this." At the end, the author added, "This is naturally ignorant and superstitious. truth."

Chen Yi flipped through the "Interpretation of Gukshi Language" with gusto.

Not far away, a group of townspeople in mourning clothes walked by carrying the coffin.

Chen Yi glanced at it, and it seemed to be the family where old Peter died of illness yesterday.

The priests of the True Religion led the way, and the elders and children who carried the coffin listened to the priests' chanting silently with sad expressions.

"Lord, may you bless his soul who is about to ascend to heaven, and may he rest in peace in your kingdom."

"Oh soul, don't get lost, follow the direction of the angel, you have always been kind and humble, go and listen to the angel singing."

"Good deeds are rewarded with good deeds, not in the afterlife.

Evil is rewarded with evil, only in this day.

Because this is an ideal country.

His kingdom. "

They sang and traveled far away.

"Hey, I want to borrow a book."

Hearing the childish voice, Chen Yi turned her head, and a child in a dark blue robe stacked copper coins on the bookstall.

"Idle?. You didn't go to class?"

Chen Yi naturally knew him, he was the wizard's youngest official apprentice, Idle.

His face was bruised and swollen.

"Why did you get beaten up?" Chen Yi couldn't help gloating.

In town, the heretic Idle is not a very nice kid.

"What are you laughing at?" Idelai was inexplicably annoyed, "A bunch of real kids raised by whores."

"You got spanked by other kids? Why?"

"Why? I just stuffed gunpowder up the sow's butt, and I haven't had time to light it," Idle yelled.

Chen Yi was silent for a while.

"It's really imaginative." Chen Yi changed the subject, "Which one do you want?"

As he said, he put away the copper coins and counted them. There are five dir copper coins in total, which is exactly enough for two days. This is not the first time for Idle to borrow books.

Copper dill weighs about 20 grams, and six or seven copper dills can be exchanged for one silver reed.

Exhaling, Idelai gritted his teeth and said, "The scriptures, I want to borrow the scriptures from Zhenjiao."

Chen Yi was startled when she heard the words: "Are you sure? Are you not a heretic?"

"I was beaten again by them in the name of heretics, twice." After complaining, Idle said seriously, "My king's king doesn't work, I'll try the real one."

Chen Yi didn't expect Yidelai to be so pragmatic. In fact, no matter whether she believed in the gods of the True Sect or the giant king of the Giant King Sect, as long as she was in Resurrection Town, she was the only one who could answer their prayers.

"Okay, I'll bring it to you." Taking out the bilingual scriptures in Kashi and Yavin from the bookstall, Chen Yi asked with a smile: "You ask our god devoutly, is it because the pagans don't have Can God ask?"

"I don't know." Idle said simply, took the book, and left without looking back.

Watching Yidelai go away, Chen Yi didn't care.

When the stall closed in the morning, not many people rented books, except Idle, there were only two priests, and there were eleven copper deers in the cash box. To maintain the operation of the whole family, renting books alone was not enough.

Chen Yi collects the book stalls, most of which are paperbacks made of linen paper, and the cost ranges from two to five silver reeds. The main reason is the ink fee, which is more expensive than one silver reed, while the beautifully bound hardcover books , only for sale and not for rent, it is mainly used to support the facade.

"Hello, sir, do you have the "Peace Handout"?"

Chen Yi raised her head, the slightly curly and wavy hair was the first to be seen, her smooth skin and beautiful face, the lines of her lips looked demure, her sharp and slightly curved eyebrows, her brown eyes with the same hair color, she had a classic look of a foreign race. Soft and beautiful.Her black and purple robes are loose, fastened with prayer beads.

""Peace Handouts", that is a hardcover book, you can't rent it, you can only buy it."

Seeing her, Chen Yi couldn't help curling her lips, she was the prettiest girl in the town, even though she was a pagan, she lived in the lecture hall in the town.

The lecture hall is a place where pagans preach and preach, just like a true church. She came to the town two months ago and heard that she is the granddaughter of the priest of the lecture hall.

And one morning a month ago, I fell in love with her at first sight, and so did she.

Chen Yi had sensed her emotions on the Kingdom of God.

In the same morning, she caught a glimpse of the bookstall passing by, thus planting the seeds of love.

Lomea squatted down. She picked up the "Peace Lectures" that hadn't been put away. It was a classic compiled by pagan scholars. She blinked and asked in a low voice: "Sir, why didn't you open it a few days ago? Can you read it in the town?" You are the only bookstall, I have no place to buy books."

"I was arrested and imprisoned for violating the rules." Chen Yi said a little embarrassedly, "I was just released yesterday."

Luomea lowered her eyelids halfway, and said a little shyly, "Oh, is that so?"

"In addition to the "Peace Handout", there is also the "Ordinance Handout", which is also a hardcover version. Do you want it?"

"Is there also the "Lecture Notes"? My grandma has always wanted it." Luo Mea's eyes lit up, "Thank you sir, you really understand me."

Chen Yi couldn't help laughing secretly, not only because of the lady's joy of serving, but also because she was able to sell two hardcover copies in a row.

Because of Luomea's several visits, they have a place to go, which was originally a show.

Lomea took out a sachet from his arms and picked out a pepper.

Chen Yi carefully put away the pepper, and wrapped it securely with a cloth, it was pepper!Spices that are more expensive than gold when in short supply!With this one, there are two peppers at home, enough to buy half a pig!
This girl always likes to use pepper to buy things, as if there are rules in the family, and money is not allowed to be so vulgar.

For this, the pagans have an affectionate name for her: Pepper Girl.

Glancing at her receding figure from time to time, with the song beads dangling from her waist, Chen Yi's heart throbbed.

Two days before and after the full moon, you can enter the Kingdom of God.

And tonight is a full moon.

Chen Yi went to bed early and closed her eyes.

After the dizzying and unbearable pain, Chen Yi came to the sea of ​​thousands of pillars of clouds again.

Chen Yi was surprised to find that the lights of the Bell Tower of Misery had accumulated to the first and a half floors.

Chen Yi thought to herself, "Could it be because of the torture I suffered when I saw that word?"

After much deliberation, there is only this explanation.

Afterwards, Chen Yi set her sights on Resurrection Town.

At the castle in Resurrection Town, Chen Yi heard the baron praying to herself.

Chen Yi turned off some lights.

"I promise you." Chen Yi Yaoyao said, making him open his eyes.

In this miniature Resurrection Town, the baron looks like an ant, and he looks ecstatic, jumping around in the small space.

"Praise the gods and thank my Lord! Lord, Lord."

Chen Yi looked away from there, went down two floors of the castle, and landed on Ronald who was sleeping soundly.

In the bedroom with blue and green patterns painted on the walls and a crackling fireplace, 14-year-old Ronald, who was sleeping soundly on the woolen mat, felt awakened by someone.

He opened his eyes chaotically, but only saw a blank space, and the eyeballs were very warm.

Chen Yi had heard that he was stupid, but she didn't know the inside story. After weighing it for a moment, she asked tentatively: "Tell me, Ronald, what is ten minus six?"

Children of nobles generally have priests or teachers to teach simple mathematics and science.

"What is ten minus six?" Ronald said truthfully involuntarily.

Chen Yi was stunned for a moment, this was too stupid.

"Of the ten cows, six were taken away, how many are left?"

"How many horses are left? Maybe six cows have eaten ten cows." Ronald answered irrelevantly. He thought this dream was strange, and the corners of his mouth could not help drooling.

Chen Yi tapped her temples helplessly.

"Maybe it's a disease. The sequelae of high fever when I was a child."

According to the townspeople, he has an IQ deficiency, abnormal language, often answers irrelevant questions, and repeats strange behaviors.

"It's kind of like autism."

It doesn't have to be a physical problem, it could be a psychological problem
Glancing at the illuminated Misery Bell Tower on the first and a half floors, Chen Yi had another idea.

With a slight lift of his fingertips, he touched Ronald's forehead, and an imperceptible light penetrated into the center of his brow.

This is enlightenment.

People with autism often have a gift for spatial or mechanical memory.

Teach him math?
So let's start with the basics.

"Ronald, you have to remember." Chen Yi paused and said solemnly: "One one gets one, one two gets two."
