Outside the house, the moon and stars are sparse.
The ancient trees in the jungle are intertwined in front, and a beautiful shadow stands quietly among the shadows of the trees. It is Concubine Mi. She is still waiting for me. When she saw me coming out, a breathtaking and beautiful smile suddenly bloomed on her face. She walked up and said with a cold His fingertips gently rubbed my frown.
"Hey, brother, life is hard enough, why should you put unnecessary pressure on yourself?"
Mi Fei smiled softly. She stood outside for a whole day, with dew settling on her shoulders.
"Thank you."
I stared at her and finally said these two words.
Concubine Mi was startled, then smiled and said: "I thought you would resent me, and even doubt the purpose of my presence by your side."
"If you just want the Nine Dragon Sword, you can kill me and seize the sword. You have such power."
I sighed softly and watched her eyes become softer and softer: "Why do you have to sign up for me as the headquarters of Liming and not hesitate to start a war with Liming? In the end, you even joined forces with Liming. Your joining forces with Liming means that you have to fight against the restricted area. , or even fight with the people below, that is your hometown after all."
After learning the truth, my heart was heavy, and I finally understood what this woman had paid for me.
"Smelly."
Mi Fei rolled her eyes at me, took my hand and walked side by side with me under the moon, and said lightly: "I am originally anti-war, because once the war starts, everything that has been built will be destroyed, and the current surface of the earth will be destroyed. It is no longer the prehistoric era. They are not fighting a group of stone-holding apes. Now the earth has entered the nuclear age. Human beings have mastered more terrifying power. Whether it is the abyss or below, they are delusional and conquer with force after all. It is simply impossible here. Even if they win the war and make mankind angry, once the nuclear warhead goes off, everyone will be finished together, whether they are above or below.
Use this opportunity to promote reforms within Dawn, so that they will give up hunting the tribesmen who have settled on the surface, so that the living environment of the tribesmen on the surface will be better in the future, and usher in the true era of great harmony. This is what we should do now of!
Facts have proven that I am right. I have conducted experiments with Jiangshui Village. A group of humans can still coexist peacefully with us even though they know our identities, which is enough to prove that we are not so-called natural enemies. In the future, my people will no longer have to pretend to be humans, let alone worry that the Watchers will hunt them. This is the real beauty.
Since the Abyss and below are going to fight and ruin my plan, then I have no choice but to fight. It may not be wrong to fight together with Dawn! ”
After saying this, Concubine Mi curled her lips and said: "Besides, I am doing this for myself. The royal family is the supreme race in our entire civilization and has natural rights. However, Abyss does not respect the royal family and even ignores the majesty of the royal family. In my eyes, they are rebels, much more hateful than humans, so of course they must be suppressed!
Moreover, there have been a lot of terrible tribes coming underground recently, and there are too many masters coming out of the abyss with full support. This makes me very uneasy. It doesn’t look like the way our tribe makes decisions. I feel... Underground There may have been changes, and they may no longer be under the rule of our royal family. These are all rebels, and I won't feel any inner burden if I kill them. ”
She went to great lengths to explain what she had done.
"They are your tribe after all..."
No matter what she said, I didn't believe it after all: "In this war, the existence of the restricted area is the most special. There is no need for the abyss to destroy you, and the dawn does not dare to touch you. You can completely remain neutral and use the powerful deterrent force. It is enough to protect the people living in human society. In fact, you have always done this. This is the wisest thing to do. Joining forces with Dawn is tantamount to betraying the following..."
Concubine Mi finally stopped talking.
I held her hand tightly and didn’t say any more. I stopped talking some words. I just wanted her to know that I was not a fool and knew what she had paid for me. After a moment of silence, I asked again. Said: "By the way, I have always wanted to know, why do the people below want to come up so much? That is their homeland after all. What makes them want to abandon their homeland and come up here at all costs?"
"I don't know either..."
Mi Fei shook her head and said softly: "Although my roots are there, I have never really been there. I was born here, born in the restricted area, and grew up in the restricted area. I understand everything here, but Don't know anything about it."
After saying this, she thought for a moment and then said: "However, my father left something for me when he passed away. It was something as thin as cicada wings and with a very special texture, similar to The paper on the surface of the earth belongs to the things below and is used to record some things. When I was a child, my father told me that it was left by our ancestors. He was the first tribe to set foot on this land tens of thousands of years ago. With the prestige of the royal family, he led thousands of terrified people through thousands of kilometers of tunnels and arrived here. The words above were written by him the moment he stood on the surface.
This is what it said - I came here, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, colorful, everything is bright, it is simply paradise, this is a completely unexplored world, the hope I found for my people, from From now on, we no longer have to live in a dark and chaotic world, and we no longer have to endure soil whose fertility is getting worse day by day and can hardly grow any food. On the eve of our demise, we have a new home. ”
There is much content contained in these few sentences.
I savored these words carefully and made many inferences.
The center of the earth is not a wonderful world. The level of civilization there is very high, which shows that they have done a lot of damage to the environment. This is an inevitable process. No civilization can escape this reality, which may accompany their development. , there are huge problems in their world, soil fertility has declined, food has decreased, and they are on the verge of extinction.
It is this predicament that forces them to open up a new world and find a new place for themselves to settle down.
“Thirty thousand years have passed, and I don’t know what has become of the place below.”
Mi Fei sighed softly: "Whether it's above or below, they belong to the same planet after all. Why do we have to face each other in life and death? It would be great if we could sit down and talk. According to the memories of some tribesmen, there are many minerals below, which are the surface of the earth. Hundreds of times that of the Earth, and there are fertile fields and abundant food on the surface that are not found below. We could have coexisted and benefited both sides, but they decided to fight for life and death, and finally destroyed the entire homeland."
I don't know how to respond. In fact, I feel that this is not something I should consider, and I have no right to make decisions for both worlds.
We walked in the jungle and it was peaceful.
Soon after, we left the island and returned to the mainland. We did not rush back to the restricted area. Time seemed to slow down. We no longer had to kill and fight. Every time we passed a city, we would stop and appreciate the ordinary. Beautiful, because we know too well that the war is not far away, and once the war breaks out, maybe all this will cease to exist.
This is a city under the sunset, and it will soon be shrouded in darkness.
Ten days later, Mi Fei and I finally returned to the restricted area.
The clan elder appeared silently beside us, saluted me respectfully, and called me: "Your Majesty."
At that moment, I was a little panicked and didn't know how to deal with it.
"You are indeed the king of the restricted area."
Mi Fei tightened my hand and said with a smile: "Of course what I said at dawn will count."
"Something happened."
The clan elder bowed his head and said: "Professor Qin passed away three days ago."
My head was buzzing. I had already thought of this result, but on this day, my heart was still filled with confusion. I was silent for a moment: "Let him be cremated. I remember he once said that turning into ashes after death is The best result, the ashes... just send them to his wife, there must be something left for that poor woman..."
The clan elder nodded, and then said: "The wedding is almost ready. It will be held in ten days, and the invitations have been sent out."
"Wedding?"
My eyes widened.
The elder’s face darkened and he stared at me with an unkind expression.
"What, you don't want to?"
Concubine Mi looked at me and smiled: "Are you wronged by marrying me?"
"No, I just don't know..."
I was a little panicked and said with a smile: "Why don't you want to..."
I really had no preparation for this. It was obviously something I had been thinking about in my dreams, but the moment it came true, I just felt a little dazed...
