wandering fairy

"Don't worry, you won't die." From the slanted corner of the garden corridor, two small piebald snakes swam out from behind a flower bed. They looked no different from the snake pets all over the palace, but they uttered a strange lingua franca: "But the one on the left behind you, next to the sun umbrella, can arrange for him to die."

Before the words fell, the snake man really turned his body and retreated quickly, and raised his hand to burst out a cloud of burning clouds!The surrounding attendants and guards couldn't avoid it in time, and were scalded by the burning cloud that hit all directions like a wave, causing several casualties in an instant.Fortunately, the noble Snake King had a protective magic talisman, and instantly opened a 'spiritual magic ball' to wrap himself and several attendants around him, narrowly avoiding this blow.

In this chaotic time, the snake man disappeared without a trace.The weird little flower snake that spoke just now stood up and jumped up, and the priest Magellan who turned into a black robe stood in front of the king: "The snake people outside have already shouted 'fight for freedom, maintain tradition', and rushed in with weapons to kill your whole family When I came in, the outermost palace guards had already surrendered to some kind of 'Uncle Wang'."

"Bastard!!" The snake king in the magic ball opened his fangs angrily and hissed through the star red snake letter: "This old bastard is here to make trouble again, I should have killed him last time!!" The human in black robe smiled: "It's not just one person who made the rebellion. If you could have killed them earlier, you wouldn't be where you are today. It's not your fault, it's just that the current situation cannot be reversed by manpower. Your Majesty, you have a good way out." ? Don’t tell me, you haven’t prepared it (long) (literature) www.cfwx.net.”

"I don't know if it's okay or not." The Snake King grunted in horror: "What I do is for the long-term benefit of the country. Where are the snake people who support me? Why didn't they come out?" Dong Hezi just shook his head: "Your Majesty, what's the use of saying such angry words now? Those who benefit from you have not yet formed an organized interest group. Only new interest groups can overthrow the old interest groups. Even new interest groups have not formed. Such a mess, how can we fight?" Interest groups entrenched in the middle and upper classes? Besides, it is difficult for the old samurai group to transform in a short period of time. This is historical inertia and it is difficult to reverse it. It can only be said that His Majesty has become more anxious and softened his hands." Pointing to the right with the staff in his hand: "Let's go, their spies and killers are here." ! 'A thunderbolt flashed, and the invisible spy who was [-] paces away was blown away.

The Snake King immediately opened the teleportation ring, and when the ring gave out a promising green light for teleportation, suddenly 'bang! ! 'The violent explosion! !The huge destructive energy blasted the Snake King into the air.And broke an arm!If it weren't for the other protection spells on him that worked.This time he is finished!

When other snake servants run away in a panic or dare not go forward.Dong Hezi hurriedly flew over to cast a healing spell, sealed the broken and bleeding arm and awakened the unconscious snake king. The weak snake king cursed as soon as he opened his eyes: "%￥#@, 居~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~… ~~~Zhen’s teleportation~~~Ring. Humph~~humph~~I still have a backup~~~Take me away quickly! I will thank you very much~~~.”

Dong Hezi ordered Ponuk to pick him up.According to what he said, go around into a wide ceremony hall not far away.There are strict and neat murals and rows of stout sculptures of snakehead fountains.In one of the snake's mouths, there is actually a treasure-like thing hidden.The weak Snake King took the orb.After chanting a few incantations, the authentic teleportation light from the bead sent the two of them '嗖' to an island surrounded by the sea!Judging from the rainbow-like sun in the sky, this is an alien plane.

"Huh?" Dong Hezi asked curiously: "Isn't it the plane of the snake god?" The snake king, whose limbs had not yet recovered, grinned miserably: "Do you think the snake gods are still on my side? Okay. Look back Look. See that mountain? Let's go there now." There is indeed a thick 'mountain' on the island behind, standing abruptly among the lush tropical plants and coconut trees, but its color is not stone, more like Hardened clay.Kind of like a half-ruined towering castle.

"There are Formians there." The Snake King explained: "They are still trustworthy, and I put some things there." He sighed and said: "I may have today, and now I can use it. Those things are making a comeback!!" But Dong Hezi persuaded: "You still want this? Why don't you find a place to be a rich man. You have some connections, we hire you as a senior consultant, and the price will definitely not treat you badly~~ ~~"

"Shut up!!" The Snake King was very angry: "How can you just say the hatred of losing the country!! You know~~~" In the middle of the anger, he suppressed his anger so as not to offend the expert around him: "You still give me your arm After being regenerated, I can’t go to see the Ant King in such a embarrassment.” But the other party was not angry, and said with a half-smile while using the advanced ‘regeneration technique’: “What country did you lose? Did you really own the whole country before? Did you really own the whole country? Can you mobilize the money in the treasury? Can you really mobilize all the troops? Can you really make the ministers and officials do what they want? When you send people to investigate the ghosts below, the people you send will really investigate Can you really implement your national plan? Have you ever seen the furniture in your home contradicting yourself and haggling over the price? "

The snake king, who was constantly angry, choked, yes, would the furniture bargain with him?

But immediately he found an excellent excuse to refute: "Like you said, there is no king in the world who can truly completely control his country! Don't all kings, including those heroes, heroes, and great kings Didn't even own their country?!"

Such a severe question only resulted in a shrug of the other party’s shoulders: “Unless you manage one or several villages, visit every household by yourself, and directly control everyone below, you have to decentralize power. Either feudalism or bureaucracy , or feudalism and bureaucracy. The vassals of the vassals are not your vassals, and you can’t control what the bureaucrats can’t control. In fact, it’s out of control. For example: which great king can really put the trade and merchants in his country Control them all? Why do those powerful kings always restrict business and merchants?"

Snake King's arm has been regenerated by Linlin's spell, and his mood has eased a little, think about it carefully.It is true that no king can really control all the people and things in the country to death. Even if there are one or two, it is only a flash in the pan, and he paid the price of subjugation or being scolded as a tyrant for thousands of years.

"So, no matter how powerful a king is, he can only own part of social resources, such as his own land, property, and taxes he can control. Other resources are divided among various forces. As a king, he must use these resources to maintain and suppress Use a "lever pulley structure" to leverage other social resources to serve your own goals. For example, restoration, mane stranding, public opinion, and the most common army. Once these "lever pulley structures" fail, or His own resources, such as land, property, and controllable taxation collapsed. He also collapsed. Since any king can only use part of resources to "leverage" another part of resources. So in essence, he is just a leader or A persecutor is never an 'owner'. Never has, so how can you lose?"

"You're so wordy." The Snake King didn't want to talk anymore: "As you said, the old principles that have been passed down for thousands of years are all bullshit?" It’s a nonsense that fools people. It’s like 'the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world’. It’s for the people at the bottom to fool them! It’s public opinion and ideology’ lever pulley structure’. You have been king for so long, but you haven’t seen it through yet This trick?"

The Snake King's anger flared up again.The pain of losing the country is so lightly said by this magic stick, it is unbearable: "Among the wolves, the wolf king should own everything; among the deer, the leading buck automatically owns the whole herd. This is a truth that has existed since ancient times , is it possible that you can kill it with clever words and tricks?!"

The other party just curled his lips in a rogue: "That's just an extensive management model. It won't work well when used in large-scale groups or groups that require complex cooperation. There are many group animals that don't use this management method. For example, some forest ants ~~~Hey, are those Formy ants in front also forest ants?"

The Snake King realizes that the problem is serious. Those Formians don't have a king! !At the top of them is a "committee" composed of seven to ten people, and there are many "committees" at the bottom, but in fact they are not strictly hierarchical management. Many ant-men at the lowest level can communicate with the top committee Ant-Man makes frequent contacts without any hindrance.The so-called 'ant king and queen' are actually just a 'reproductive tool', and some 'Ant-Man Fortresses' will borrow ant kings and ant queens like other 'Ant-Man Castles' when the ant king and queen die. !

God!too messy!I didn't pay much attention before, but if I go there now~~~ I will definitely be laughed at by this magic stick!

Just when he was struggling, the silent bodyguard Ponuk next to the magic stick said: "There is a lot of movement in the distance, it seems that something very big and heavy is coming! Is it a tsunami? Hey, your place is not safe La!!"

The Snake King and Dong Hezi held their breaths to hear some faint voices, and the Snake King immediately called out: "It's a flesh-hungry slime monster! Let's go!! You must hide in the Forme Ant-Man's fortress before that thing comes! !" Dong Hezi pulled them into the air, and said: "Don't make a fuss, even giant slime monsters, there are ways to deal with them. Besides, their speed is not fast."

Just as they were talking, they flew into the air and saw a large 'wave' appearing on the sea in the distance, rushing towards the island at an astonishing speed!Seeing this scene, even the Snake King yelled: "Did you see it? It's already here!! Hurry up! If it catches up with you, it will be over! This thing eats meat, even a little bit of meat is separated by a distance of more than ten miles. It can attract it! It regularly roams the islands and eats everything that has meat on it! Be it giant beasts or insects! Only a Formian fortress can hold it back for a while."

"Are you sure that's not a tsunami?" Ponuk felt that the big thing in the sea was too big, as if several majestic castles sunk in the sea were moving fast!It's unimaginable that there is such a huge ooze monster, and its speed is as fast as waves, it's too fast: "If it doesn't work, just fly higher and just dodge it."

The Snake King said anxiously: "No! That thing will smell our meat, and then summon flying monsters to attack us. Last time I suffered a loss and was almost eaten by it! And it has other weird things. Spells, if you don’t want to be thrown into another unknown space, then fly to the Formian ant-man!”

Soon they flew over the huge solid earth castle of the Formy Ant-Man, and saw that the Ant-Man took out a shiny magic javelin and a shiny high-end staff, ready to attack them.Then the Snake King took out a magic rune and flashed a few times at the ants below, and the ants put away their weapons and instructed them to land in a circular space at the gate.

Soon, a few Ant-Man wearing armor~~~ Yes, Ant-Man does have a special metal armor, surrounded by a leader dressed as a mage or a warlock.Fortunately, it can speak common language, so it quickly connected with the Snake King.When he heard the Snake King tell him: "The addicted slime monster is here." Ant-Man farted anxiously.

Fortunately, the 'fart' doesn't stink, Dong Hezi in human form can't smell it at all, only Snake King and Ponuk with keen sense of smell 'enjoy' it.This fart is the "roar" of the ants. When it floats in the wind, the ants around them start to panic, and some ants ran to the clay sentry post to release the "wolf smoke", emitting a strong smell that Dong Hezi can smell. , quickly spread to the surroundings and the entire Ant-Man Fortress.

When the surrounding ants started to mobilize and set up defenses, they had been led hastily into the huge castle. Although the inside was also a special clay building, the passage was fairly neat. The upper and lower walls resembled human buildings, but the steps were too Shallow, not very comfortable when walking down.

There are actually some glowing fungi planted in the passage, not ordinary dark ant nests.There are layers of deep 'squares' on the thick walls of some halls, from which resting Ant-Man is getting ready to fight.There are even 'soldier ants', which are bigger than giants, aggressively splitting their serrated mandibles, holding a large round shield and a magic sword as long as a man, and walking towards the upper level 'dongdong'.

If it were in the main world, this kind of guy could easily cut off the head of a sub-giant warrior with one jaw, and the armor on his body plus the bug armor on his body would be enough for them to become battle-breakers!But here they also looked small and nervous. They were sent to guard the entrances of the upper and lower floors, and Dong Hezi and his party were also taken to a hall on the upper floor instead of the heavily guarded lower floor.

The upper and lower walls here are as rough as a farm house, but the 'soil' is extremely strong, several times harder than bricks.After a while, there were many worker ants with thick arms and legs pushing wheelbarrows filled with mud-like things, rushing back and forth from here.The accompanying Ant-Man also apologized and said: "This is the living room, but the situation is urgent now, so I can only do the aisle and the storage yard. After the emergency is over, I will invite the elders to meet with some of you."

Dong Hezi asked curiously: "What are they going to do?" The other party was very nervous, even the complicated mouthparts were moving around, making the accent a little unstable: "Going to~~block~~the door, that addict~~ ~**Extremely ferocious, copper doors and iron windows can block it~~~ It can't help it, as long as there is a little gap, it will get in. You must paste all the gaps, especially the vent on the top~~~ If it gets in Part of it is going to be a big problem.”

Ponuk also became curious: "Where is your magic? We feel that you have a lot of magic here, use magic to deal with it!" But the other party shook his head: "It can disrupt our spells and make our spells messy. Especially When it covers the entire city, it's hard to say whether the magic circle in the city can function normally."
