Old saying...
Even those who manifest themselves may not necessarily hear or realize that the source of their power is the ancient sayings.
Chen Yi thought about it and realized that he might be one of them.
"Okay, that's me." Chen Yi secretly laughed at himself.
Chen Yi was not ashamed of his lack of knowledge, let alone pretending to be the God of Resurrection Town. He was deeply curious about the ancient words.
After all, I am a language student.
After thinking for a while, Chen Yi realized that when either Isa or Lucius communicated with some kind of mystery, Bai Jinwen would appear.
"I want to ask you, is Bai Jinwen an ancient saying?" Chen Yi expressed his inner guess.
"My guest, I hope to tell you an exact and complete answer. Even if it cannot be called truth, it can also be called axiom, but..." Serena paused cleverly and said curiously: "I am here , only secrets can be exchanged for secrets.”
Strange...she obviously can't understand Chinese...
But he is particularly persistent in secrets.
The woman in the carriage was obviously open to secrets.
Judging from her words and actions, it seems that as long as it is a secret, no matter what the content of the secret is.
Combined with what Serena said before, Chen Yi immediately realized that the ancient words she mastered should be "secrets".
However, even if you can guess it, it is actually useless.
There is no hidden intention in Serena's words and deeds.
"Okay, how high a secret do you want?" Chen Yi asked first.
"I also want to tell you that you will have to pay the chips before you can answer in the future. It seems that there is no need to explain in advance. You have an aristocratic upbringing, my guest." Serena spoke cleverly, but her tone was not cold or cold, "Better than Blue is rated higher than red.”
"Well... there are two most famous Hannibals in the world. One Hannibal loves to eat people, and the other Hannibal loves to eat Romans." Chen Yi pretended to be solemn.
The crystal ball only glows blue.
"Sorry, I can't answer your question. Please change the secret." Serena said calmly.
Chen Yi nodded.
Will telling two secrets in a row get a red rating?
Chen Yi decided to give it a small try.
"Constantinople fell and the Third International disbanded."
The crystal ball still glowed with blue light.
Chen Yi could even hear Serena raising her eyebrows in the carriage.
This can only be regarded as a low evaluation of blue, plus the previous secrets told, while the evaluation of red is a bit higher. Chen Yi has a frame of reference and thinks about it for a moment...
Finally, he said casually: "My previous name was Chen Yi."
The crystal ball slowly glowed with blue light. Chen Yi was startled. In less than three seconds, the blue was quickly infected by a burst of red. He heard Serena leaning forward and was about to speak, but... the red was like The expelled worm, the light group quickly converged, and the new cyan filled the entire crystal ball.
Cyan didn't have time to declare its victory. Purple, the noblest purple, is the only purple robe worn by the emperor in the book. The crystal clear color of the sphere is intoxicating. It reminds Chen Yi of the Roman purple that was sung by countless poets in his previous life.
In the carriage, her silence almost overflowed.
Ziguang evaluation, that is extremely rare, almost the secret of the highest evaluation.
Serena had never seen this secret purple light ten times in her long life.
But she didn't understand the language.
Surprised, Serena stared at the crystal ball greedily and angrily.
She spent most of her life learning languages, and even the remote and profound mountain elf language can still make witty remarks, including many dead languages that are no longer spoken, all within the scope of her ability to use them skillfully.
How could the president of a secret society not crave secrets?
After a long time, Serena, who had regained consciousness, pretended to be calm and said: "My guest, your chips are too rich... so you can change the question, or... I can answer more, or you can stay. Hold on, save the extra chips for later use.
Chen Yi was pleasantly surprised. He calmed down his expression and said magnanimously: "There is no need to change the question. I will ask more. If there are more, just leave it for next time."
"Okay." Serena nodded, and she began to chant the spell neatly.
Chen Yi's eyes were once again attracted to the crystal ball. Chen Yi knew that he couldn't move away, so he simply kept staring.
After she chanted, the changing constellations of the sphere paused, their light dazzling and ethereal.
The crystal ball glowed reddish.
"Platinum text is not the same as ancient words." Serena said.
"Oh?" His guess was wrong, Chen Yi couldn't help but become more curious.
"As far as I know, the ancient platinum script is a text compiled by the platinum wizards who pursue knowledge for the intangible dragon language. I can tell you that the dragon clan has their own secret method of passing on knowledge, and at the same time, they never forget, and the dragon clan The taboo on sharing does not require or want words." Serena's tone remained unchanged and said: "And pure dragon language... is a language that is close to ancient proverbs."
A language that is almost ancient.
Chen Yi secretly wrote this down.
One day a dragon flew across the sky in Resurrection Town, and he caught it himself.
"Did you just say... ancient white gold inscriptions?" Chen Yi captured the words accurately.
"Yes, the ancient Platinum Inscriptions. Now...the Platinum Inscriptions learned by most people have been continuously simplified and modified through the changes of the times." Serena said.
Chen Yi nodded. This is easy to understand. Language is constantly changing and never fixed. Just like ancient English is an inflectional language with complex changes in word forms, while modern English is gradually developing into an analytic language.
And the same is true for Chinese.
"I have nothing more to ask. Can you...divine the next secret?" After thinking about it, Chen Yi could only use the word "divination" to describe Selina's behavior.
Unexpectedly, Serena refused: "...I'm sorry, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it for the next few days."
"You paid a chip for the secret of purple light... For me, it takes quite a long time to fully digest. The 'secret' is my source. It's just that the luxurious garden cannot withstand flooding, just like Orion Short Time cannot travel across the mountains, and I don’t know if my metaphor is appropriate and easy to understand,” she explained.
Chen Yi pretended to understand and nodded.
"Well, my guest, it's almost time for me to take my leave. If you would like to contact me... the eleventh word on the twenty-sixth page from the bottom of "Old Past", replace it with platinum inscriptions, The secret societies will hear your call." Serena left instructions for contacting the secret societies.
Seeing Rao slowly stretching out his horns and lifting the carriage above his head, Chen Yi thought of something.
"Rao, why did the wizard call you? To cure someone of leprosy?"
Rao's eyes trembled when he was suddenly noticed. He slowly turned his eyes, not daring to slack off, and waved his horns as hard as he could.
Chen Yi didn't understand what it was doing.
After a while, Serena said empathetically: "It doesn't know what leprosy is."
Chen Yi continued to listen.
Rao changed his dance style.
"It said that it is the guardian of the Soul Bridge, and it only has the power to bring souls who have become dead souls into the world." Serena paused and translated: "The wizard summoned it because he wanted a soul to return to the world. .”
Chen Yi frowned.
"Which soul?"
"It says," Serena said, discerning Rao's movements, "that his name is Qasim."
.....................
In the dark night, the figure in the black linen robe is particularly inconspicuous.
Kasim stepped into the alchemy room, and all the guards who came to investigate left. He crossed the broken spiritual summoning circle and took a deep look at the robe on the ground.
He didn't know why Lucius, who was supposed to be performing the spirit summoning ceremony, was missing.
However, the broken spiritual link between them told him that his father was dead.
For him, this is undoubtedly a blessing from heaven.
The worms originally used to deal with his father were no longer useful.
Pushing open the door of the alchemy room, he saw the silent corridor under the moonlight, with the shadows of maples and cypresses interlaced and mottled, the branches and leaves rubbing each other, and he walked alone.
In the middle of the church, he pushed open the icon, took out the key to unlock the secret door behind it, and walked slowly inside.
The bee candle was lit, and he turned his head and saw one after another emaciated figures lying quietly in the darkness. He suddenly returned to that day when he accidentally walked into the secret door, and was horrified to see countless "selves" abandoned in this loneliness. ".
Those countless puppets.
"Father, I want to have my own life."
He couldn't hold back the hot tears on his cheeks and clutched the sacred painting pendant around his neck.
"I want to have humanity..."
It was never Lucius who tried to call the evil god.
Lucius was never the only one who was able to explore taboos.
