The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 106: Mystery Journey Companion (Part 2)
"Well, friend... friend." Jonah raised his hands to show her palms and staff, Syrah Fauna, signaled that he was not carrying a dangerous weapon, and stammered: "I, friend, you... food , Water, transportation,...Is there a friend who understands Spanish."
But his actions obviously caused misunderstanding. The men in white robes stepped back guardedly, focusing on the staff. The strong man in the lead yelled, and the fingered astrologer apprentice yelled, and his voice was short. Powerful, needless to say, is an imperative sentence that expresses commands,
"What, I, I don't understand..." Jonah stepped forward in confusion, and suddenly realized: "Oh, you are looking at my staff, right? Yes, I am an astrologer. Apprentice, member of the five major guilds, look, astrology."
In order to prove his identity, he activated the illuminated star array at the top of the staff, and the scorching brilliance ignited in the center of the town in an instant. The men were taken aback and yelled frantically. The strong man immediately took out one The dark and heavy thing whirled in the air, making a humming sound, and then loosened the finger, the weapon flew with the rope and flew at the door of the astrologer apprentice, "...bucket." Waiting to see that. The true face of this weapon is that Jonah can no longer escape a flying bucket attack anyway,
"Boom."
The wooden bucket tied with lead wire was slammed straight into the face. After experiencing the great changes of the ghost Bahamas, Jonah, who had walked alone through the desolate Gobi and never stopped, immediately lay down on the ground with a grunt. I didn’t say, I just fainted neatly,
Of course, his body really needs to rest. This dizziness, I don’t know how long time has passed. When he finally opened his eyes slowly, he found that he was in a narrow stone house with a pile of soft hay under him. , The hay exudes a delicate fragrance. It should have been replaced in recent days. There is a window embedded with iron bars on the opposite wall. The sky is full of stars, and the night has come,
"Uh..." Jonah stood up and immediately groaned and arched his body to cover his nose. The bucket almost broke his nose bridge. With a little effort, two lines of nosebleeds flowed out, and he fumbled. Using two **** of hay to plug his nostrils, he temporarily stopped the bleeding, moved his body, his hands and feet were ready, there was no other pain, his deerskin bag was still hanging on his waist, there was nothing in it, the astrologer apprentice suddenly looked Stroking her chest nervously, then let out a sigh of relief. The fragments of the prophecy book stayed in their inner pockets. It seems that the men did not turn their things around, and the staff, Syrah Fauna, also quietly leaned against the wall. At the same time, Jonah was overjoyed and grabbed the warm handle of the stick, only then did he feel a little bit of safety,
Suddenly the smell of food rushed into his nostrils. Through the starlight of the window, he saw a tattered black wooden door in the room. Only filled with hot soup, "great." Jonah rushed over to pick up the pottery plate, spooned up the food and gobbled it up. After only a few bites, he was choked with coarse grains of wheat and meat and rolled his eyes, and quickly picked up the soup. I took a few sips of soup and sent the food down my throat.
In just one minute, he settled the food and soup, licking the soup on the bottom of the plate eagerly, put two clean plates back on the ground, lying on the straw, spreading his hands and feet comfortably , His nose was blocked and uncomfortable, Jonah carefully pulled out the straw ball, his nosebleeds no longer flowed, and the feeling of smooth breathing made him sigh refreshedly,
Solved the physical problem, now you can think about his situation. Jonah recalled the scene before fainting, and felt that several locals just didn’t understand his identity, and it didn’t seem like he had settled some bad-hearted gangsters. They didn’t embarrass themselves, nor did they steal his things, but they were knocked out by a peasant and herdsman with a wooden bucket for fetching water. The more they thought about it, the more depressing they became, "Huh, sneak attack... , I will never give you a chance to attack..." Jonah muttered angrily, "Don’t let Danny and other big mouths know about this, otherwise the whole continent will know that I lost to a bucket. It's..."
"That's not ashamed, in fact I was knocked down by the bucket." A voice comforted,
"Thank you." The astrologer apprentice nodded gratefully, "...who." He suddenly jumped up with wide eyes, holding the staff and looking around, because of excessive tension, his nosebleeds came out again.
"Oh, oh, you are bleeding, Mr. Unknown." It turned out that there was a man sitting in the shadow of the little stone house. He hadn't spoken since just now, watching Jonah get up, eat, and talk to himself. He muttered to himself, and finally couldn’t help but talk, "Do you want to help, you have a serious nose injury." He stood up and offered help enthusiastically,
"No." The ugliness was seen by the other party. Jonah was ashamed and angry. He bitterly picked up two **** of hay and stuffed them into his nostrils. Unexpectedly, the blood flow was really turbulent this time, rushing the blockage. When he came out, he was dizzy and sat down on the haystack, pinching his nose in panic,
The man said in a gentle and pleasant voice: "This won’t work, Mr. Unknown, if you believe me, you might as well take off your boots and use your fingers to find the depression between your outer ankle and heel. Press down."
"What did you say, why did I press my feet when I got a nosebleed?... And, who are you, why did you keep silent just now." The astrologer apprentice pinched his nose and said angrily,
"Little magic from the East." The nice male voice answered unhurriedly, "I'm just guessing where you are from, hoping to find a suitable language to communicate with you, and I am afraid that I will lose you if I rashly open my mouth. By the way, you can call me Asai. It’s a pleasure to meet you, an unknown gentleman from St. Boren."
"Asai, what's that strange name..." Jonah muttered, taking off his left leather boots suspiciously, and pressing his right thumb between his ankle and heel, a strange soreness tingled from there. Started, "...is this here, and then."
The man smiled, his white teeth gleaming in the stars: "Then there is a depression in the corresponding position on the inside of your ankle. Don’t doubt, press it down with the same force. After a minute, your nosebleeds will stop. Up."
According to what he said, Jonah used his thumb and index finger to press these two places. It was strange to say that the non-stop nosebleeds slowly stopped. He released his fingers and wiped the blood on his face. Surprised Said: "It's really useful. Why does pressing the foot stop the nosebleed? It's amazing."
"The Kunlun and Taixi acupoints are used to treat nose bleeding caused by trauma, and they are effective immediately. If there is heat in the viscera and excessive anger, you must press the Bailao acupoint. It is here in the back of the head; if the respiratory system has Bleeding caused by the problem requires acupuncture and moxibustion at Sanjian, Xinggu, Fengchi, Shangxing, Yingxiang, and Yintang." The man gestured and said with a kind smile on his face.
Although I didn’t understand what he was talking about, Jonah was completely disarmed and stood up and performed a formal astrological etiquette: "I’m sorry, my attitude is not friendly enough... I’m d. Jonah II. World, fourth-level astrologer apprentice, nice to meet you...Asai."
"Hello, Mr. Jonah, don't care about my name. My real name is not easy to pronounce in Western Continental Common, so please try to call me that way." The man with the strange name walked over and reached out. He shook hands, "You are an astrologer, Isaiba Ink the Great of Tochar has acknowledged the "Joint Amnesty Decree", why did you get attacked by the herdsmen of Malakanda?"
"This town is called Malakanda, and I don’t know why. I tried my best to explain my identity to them, maybe because of language barrier...oh." The astrologer apprentice suddenly woke up and rummaged in his deerskin bag. Take out a beautifully crafted badge. The dark blue disk symbolizing the starry sky is surrounded by four light blue star flowers. It is the four-level astrologer apprentice badge issued by the Astrologer Association, the only sign of the five major guild members walking in the world ,,, He kept forgetting to put the badge on the robe, no wonder the locals looked suspicious when they looked at him, "...I'm so stupid." Jonah knocked on his head, "This should be able to explain clearly. By the way, why are you locked up by them again, Asai, don’t you speak the lingua franca of the Southern Continent."
The man sighed: "It's a long story. There is no problem with communication, but I accidentally killed one of their animals, and without money, I was beaten and locked up."
"A livestock was accidentally killed." Jonah felt a little strange,
"It's just like that. Oh, I died." The man gestured shamefully, "I didn't mean it..."
It wasn't until this time that the astrologer apprentice saw the person standing opposite by the starlight. This is a very good-looking man with a pair of black eyes embedded in a well-defined face. The eyes are always grinning. Squinted into a seam, it makes people feel kind and friendly; under the tall bridge of the nose are thin lips, and the corners of the smiling mouth show white teeth. His complexion is a healthy wheat color, which should be the sun-tanned complexion. The color of the original skin is different; but a big thick black braid explains his origins. Only people from the far eastern continent would tie his long hair into braids like this. But having said that, Jonah had never heard of it. The man with braids can't help but look at him a few more times,
The man’s figure is not too tall, slightly higher than Jona’s head, the body with soft muscle lines looks full of vitality, brown short coat, trousers, leggings and thin leather fast boots, hanging from the waist A dagger with a sheath, shiny hair braids hanging on his shoulders, and a ribbon woven with gold and silver threads tied at the ends of the braids. This is also the only ornament on his body.
The braids did not make a good-looking man look lacking in masculinity, on the contrary, it added a mysterious oriental charm. "If you want to ask a man why he keeps braids, I can only answer with the ancient customs of my hometown. That’s it, there’s no way." The Oriental named Asai spread his hands and reluctantly responded to Jonah’s gaze.
