"ha?"
"Yes, you heard it right. He died in a car accident. Holding the Aegis in his hand, he should be able to fight with the gods of Cathay. However, he died so casually - he could stand side by side with the gods in the parade of heroes. , his existence allowed Mithras Helios to negotiate with him. However, he died in a car accident, as randomly as a stray cat in the city. He even only lived to be 49 years old, not The average lifespan of Romans. We don’t know how long celestial beings can live, but we always feel that more than ten generations have passed here, but we can still see the familiar faces sent by you. It’s so sad, the civilians of Cathay The average life expectancy is 96 years old, right?”
Yes, this is public data. The average life span of people in Kinei is approaching the hundred-year mark. Thanks to the help of immortal roots, almost everyone can maintain their innate Taoist body within the age of 30. Aging has also been delayed. Even in your fifties and sixties, you can still maintain abundant energy. Real aging will not come until after you are 70 years old. After about 20 years of old age, the person will probably die at about 95 years old. It is not unusual to live over a hundred years old.
This is even hard to feel in Kinei. Because almost everyone is like this, and it does not exceed the limits of human capabilities, it does not seem so abrupt. However, these small daily routines in ordinary streets are elusive in another world empire. The health of the Roman aristocrats was always a cause for concern. Their physiques were never strengthened and they always held gluttonous dinner parties. When life, old age, sickness and death come to your door as scheduled, it's already too late.
"You should be able to eat radishes." Shangluo answered him. Although radishes are expensive, it’s okay to serve a few pieces to guests.
"Can you ask for me?"
"Yeah." Shangluo nodded and picked up the phone——
He picked it up and put it down again, just a few steps away, as if he didn't need to use his phone. The convenience of the mobile phone gave him some illusions. For a moment, it seemed that he had returned to the era when he could use his mobile phone to send messages at any time.
Walking to the next box, Shangluo knocked on the door. The person who opened the door was Wen Yuan, also holding a cream-filled snail in his hand.
"What are you doing? Do you want to eat? But you can't eat. You are fasting. If you want to eat, you can eat some radishes at night."
"I can still hold on. But Lu Qianhu, I want to ask him if he can eat some radishes?"
"Another one? Tsk tsk." Lu Huaiyang shook his head, "It's useless. We will entertain everyone a little bit, but no one is useful - ah, it's different from your situation. You will feel a little uncomfortable when you eat radishes. Flatulence, but it is digested quickly. If they eat radish, it is said that what they eat will be the same when they see you tomorrow, and they will not digest it at all. So we just give them a little politely, but it is actually of no use. .”
"It's a bit pitiful. He said that their leader of the previous generation died in a car accident."
"Oh, let alone sudden death in a car accident. His predecessor's predecessor, named Pompey, came from the famous Pompey family. He was a very powerful man. He was knowledgeable and elegant in conversation. He was in his forties. It looked very promising, but one day he fell down after eating an extra bowl of noodles. It is said that during the rescue process, he kept his eyes wide open. He was unwilling to die of such a common disease so hastily. .”
"Since they are proficient in alchemy, supernatural powers and astrology, then there is no way to extend their lives?"
"Yes, there are - but Pandora's box brought them miracles, but it also brought doomed death. They don't live long, and it doesn't matter how powerful they are or how long they live. Some people try to forcefully break through the limit of lifespan, But there is no good ending. It is said that some spit out venom, and some think it explodes, and some spit out fire. Some turn into stone statues, and even worse, some turn into mud. A lump of cell slime without intelligence, but can always proliferate. .”
"So miserable?"
"There is no way, the destiny cannot be violated. We have the power of creation from the immortal roots to postpone or even avoid the end of life. After ascending to heaven and human beings, we will have the life span of the five declines of heaven and human beings, and there will be no suffering of birth, old age, illness and death. . So, give them some carrots to eat, and leave them with a little bit of hope. So that they don’t think we won’t give them a way to survive - the way to survive has been given, so who can tell them that they can’t grasp it themselves.”
"Okay, that's how I'll reply to him. Oh, by the way, Lu Qianhu, I won't be able to eat for a while anyway, so I'll just go back."
"Remember not to eat at night, you have to continue to be hungry. You will be almost done eating until tomorrow. If it doesn't work, just drink some glucose." As he said this, he threw a box of glucose over.
"Thank you." After accepting the glucose, Shangluo knew that tonight was probably going to be a rough night.
Before leaving, Lu Huaiyang also asked: "You have to ask for leave tomorrow afternoon. His Majesty the Emperor sent a letter just now, you are going to open the treasure chest of Golden Branch, right? Good thing, you all go. There will be a meeting in Rome at noon tomorrow. Bring us the equipment for diving, and you can try it out at noon. When you come, call Han Xingzhi from your team, he is very useful."
After saying that, Shangluo exited - the creamy smell in this box was really unbearable. The thought of having to eat only glucose until tomorrow made him dizzy in advance. I'm afraid I'll have to hold it in for a while just to sleep tonight.
At 9 o'clock in the evening, Shangluo, who was dizzy with hunger in bed, finally fell asleep.
"Good night, Apollonia," he said vaguely.
[Hoo~~] The sound of gentle breathing came, Apollonia had already fallen asleep.
"Buzz buzz~"
"Buzz buzz!"
"who!"
【who! 】
There was a vibration next to the bed, and the two of them woke up almost at the same time - it was the mobile phone that was vibrating. The phone's panel is on, glowing upwards.
【Who! No one can sleep at night! It's only 2 o'clock. Look who it is. 】
"Ah, I'm so sleepy and hungry." Shangluo squinted his eyes and opened his phone.
He blinked, afraid that he had seen it wrong.
"Yes, the emperor."
[The grandfather and grandson have endless troubles, right? Do you like making serial calls that kill people in the middle of the night so much? 】
"Forget it, forget it. The old Zhu family is like this. It was like this in the Hongwu Year. It was like this when Daozu was young. They don't sleep by themselves or let others sleep. They are so energetic that they feel like they have been injected with chicken blood. I think It should be important to see what happened to him.”
He opened Fetion and glanced at it.
"Huh??" He became more energetic. It was good news.
Apollonia also caught a glimpse:
[He concentrated the radish five times, reaching 15% abundance? So fast? He hasn't slept in the past two days and is just making elixirs there! I advise you to go quickly. If you don't go, I'm afraid he will die suddenly in Yuxi Palace. 】
"He asked me to accept it. I must go. Sure enough, he is a genius in alchemy certified by Daozu. He is indeed professional." Shangluo punched his head twice to wake himself up. "Let's go, let's go early." It's okay, maybe I can sleep for a while. I can't sleep anymore in class today."
Today’s other updates will be around noon (just before 12 o’clock)
