The Path Toward Heaven Chapter 20: The Priestess’s Primary Election
In the middle of the night, the girl's painful groans and the sound of water demanding were heard in the bedroom.
Jing Jiu was lying on the chair with his eyes closed, looking at the collection of mathematics papers of the Academy of Sciences, when he heard her voice and ignored her.
Of course, even if he doesn't do anything at this time, he won't take care of her.
He has never taken care of anyone in his life, except for Nan Wang, who was so drunk that year, and severely injured March, only to wipe Bai Zao's face before Fei Sheng.
Zhong Lizi staggered out the door, took out a few big mouthfuls of water from the refrigerator, and then became a little more sober, and said with some pain, "How can I be so drunk? Isn't it rice wine?"
Jing Jiu opened his eyes and said, "The alcohol content is three times that of beer."
Hearing this sentence, Zhong Lizi was surprised and said: "Such a high degree? No wonder it will have a headache."
Speaking, she sat on the chair, hugging the cushion, taking up a large space, and squeezing his feet down.
Jing Jiu wondered why this kid is more domineering than the twelfth lunar month?
"Hey! I suddenly thought of something important and forgot to say that you are the author. I have to make a statement."
"Huh?"
"Swirl Rain will give a lot of money."
"I have money."
"Do you not want the right to sign, too?"
"If the author is me, will Xuanyu help you get an exchange student quota?"
Zhong Lizi hugged the cushion and looked into his eyes and said: "Actually, I have been wondering if you really need the exchange student quota, or if you want to attract the attention of some big people above and take you back. Otherwise, what are you writing?"
"Why should I go up there?" Jing Jiu asked.
Zhong Lizi thought about the stories he imagined these days, and asked nervously: "Because you want to get back your own things, such as family, company?"
Jing Jiu looked at her and said, "Don't look at it, you will look stupid."
……
……
Most of them are really not nutritious, and it might become silly to keep watching.
TV is really unnutritious, and only fools can watch it every day.
In recent days, Jing Jiu has never turned on the TV except during the time when the news is broadcast, but at this time the mathematics research was interrupted by Zhong Lizi, and he didn't like to listen to her make up, so he turned on the TV.
He thought in his heart that he should celebrate that he has solved all the physics problems that this world can solve.
The light curtain soon became more stable, and the high-resolution images were almost indistinguishable from reality, the only thing was that they were not three-dimensional enough.
A variety show is being shown on TV. It is held in a huge gymnasium. The crowded audiences are like mountains and seas, intoxicated and crazy.
Jing Jiu looked at it twice, and calculated that there were probably more than 116,000 spectators at the scene. He couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Zhong Lizi walked out of the toilet and watched the picture on the TV. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's the primaries! I really drank too much! I forgot that today is the day of the primaries!"
There will be a priestess in every region and planetary base of the Galaxy Alliance.
The status of the priestess is extremely high, and it is said that she is responsible for inheriting the remains of ancient civilizations.
This year is the year when the priestess of the Star Gate is re-elected. The so-called re-election actually means that the priestess will die in old age.
The new priestess will select three candidates from the entire planet, and the final priestess will directly designate them.
The grand ceremony is usually arranged in October and is called the water sacrifice.
There is no doubt that the selection of a new priestess is the most important thing for this planet this year, and it has attracted the attention of countless people since the sea election.
At this time, what was shown on the TV was a late-night rebroadcast of the preliminary selection of a certain area of the three-tier world.
Zhong Lizi pulled the cushion out of his butt, hugged it in his arms, and said excitedly: "The exchange students will stay at Xingmen University for half a year. We might be able to watch the October Water Festival live."
She suddenly thought of some questions and said frustratedly: "But the tickets must be very popular. Where can we get them?"
The next moment, her eyes lit up again, and she looked at Jing Jiu and said, "If Xuanyu Company really uses yours, we ask them for tickets. They should be able to help?"
In a short period of time, the girl’s mood changed three times, possibly because of the relaxation brought by alcohol, but the bigger reason was the attraction of the October Water Festival.
Jing Jiu didn't care about the October Water Festival, but remembered another thing. He took out a pen and paper from under the coffee table and wrote a word on that piece of paper.
Zhong Lizi leaned over curiously and found that there was an extra "month" under the words "year" and "robot" that were originally on the paper.
"What are you looking for? Don't say who I am..."
"What is a year? Why is a year twelve months? Why is a year three hundred and sixty-five days? Why are both sides the same, although there are no months there."
Hearing these questions about Jing Jiu, Zhong Lizi was stunned, thinking that human civilization has been such a chronicle since the revival of human civilization. Maybe it has something to do with ancient civilization?
Such a complicated question is really not suitable for her thinking after drinking. She shook her head, forgot these questions and the three words on the paper, and began to concentrate on watching TV.
……
……
The first content of the preliminary contest for the priestess selection... is very old-fashioned, probably similar to the elementary school literacy contest. The test questions do not involve any innovation, divergence of thinking, and there is no requirement for IQ, mainly about the knowledge of literature and history. reserve.
Zhong Lizi stares at the light curtain, frowning whenever a question arises, searching for the answer in his mind, and then screaming out the answer with his fist, or speaking out the option softly without confidence, or Continue to frown. When the answer came out, she either jumped up happily, or said with regret that I knew why I remembered it wrong? Or look at Jing Jiu with a smirk and say that he is studying science...
"I know this question!" Without waiting for Jing Jiu to give any response, she looked at the next question and called out again: "It's the Pingmo Plateau, in the northern region of the main star!"
Jing Jiu didn't care about the acting personality she presented after drinking, but was somewhat interested in the content of those exam questions. It may be because this is the selection of the priestess of the Star Gate, and many of those topics are the history of this planet, and it is some very partial knowledge that ordinary people don't care much about.
Zhong Lizi suddenly thought of seeing seven full-point test papers that day, and looked at him with some uncertainty and asked: "You know all these questions?"
Jing Jiu gave a hum.
……
……
The questions for the second round of assessment are much more difficult. It looks like a game. Some require extremely precise operation skills, some require extremely calm mentality, but the real basis is the ability of spatial deconstruction and Refactoring ability.
These topics have extremely high requirements on the candidate’s IQ, and to be precise, the degree of brain development.
Zhong Lizi opened his eyes wide, looking at the color blocks that kept dispersing and reorganizing, looking at the hundreds of water glasses that seemed to be exactly the same, after looking for a long time, he couldn't find any clues.
She is a victorious girl, knowing that those questions are beyond her ability, she still refuses to give up, even holding her breath nervously.
Jing Jiu felt that this was not as interesting as the first round, and lay back on the chair, stretched her feet, and asked her to sit farther, then closed her eyes and started learning.
"Can you do this too?" Zhong Lizi said in disbelief looking at his expression.
Jing Jiu thought it was so simple, not to mention Tong Yan and Que Niang, even He Zhanlai can easily pass the level.
Zhong Lizi looked at his face and suddenly came up with a very absurd idea.
If you pretend to be a girl to participate in the selection of priestesses, he might really succeed in the end.
As for whether others can tell...Who would doubt such a beautiful person?
Be aware that it took her a lot of genius to get used to this face.
Jing Jiu continued to read the collection of essays, and countless symbols and numbers floated in his field of vision, like snowflakes, making him think of the room in the hidden net, and then of Shang Defeng. The hot pot at that time was better than the hot pot of Shenmofeng later. Naturally, it was not because Gu Qing didn't do things carefully, but because his sense of taste was gone.
The humans in this world are weaker than the humans in Chaotian Continent. Naturally, it is not because they are lazy and incompetent~IndoMTL.com~ but because the world rules are different.
The same is true of his current physical condition. The strength and the speed at which he can perform are far less than before.
I don't know how long it took, he suddenly heard an swear word, and subconsciously opened his eyes and looked over.
Zhong Lizi stood in front of the TV, staring at the host inside like an enemy, gritted his teeth and said: "Shady!"
The primary election for this area of the Three-tier World has come to an end. Three candidates for the final run-off have been selected. The girl she likes most and supports the most has lost the election, so what else is there to say? Don't ask, one question is shady.
Jing Jiu's gaze fell on the TV, and he found that the few candidates were pretty good-looking, especially the middle one.
——In his eyes, he thinks it is pretty good, and it must be the ultimate beauty in human society.
Judging from the undulating voices of hundreds of thousands of viewers and the attention of the host, the black-haired girl in the middle is indeed the most popular.
