The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 28: Shadow of Nothingness (Part 2)

"The first question, as I said earlier, you can think of me as a phantom." Gilbernaion walked slowly in front, without looking back, "I have been here waiting for the astrologer to arrive. When the time scale, space location, and the soul fluctuations of the audience just match, the space-time crack will open, and we will have a little time for chatting. Every pilgrim I have seen before is eager to ask about the profoundness of astrology. Theory, and you, are the only little guy who didn't ask questions about astrology itself."

Jonah followed in vain in the footsteps of the original mentor, and lowered his head in shame, "I'm just a fourth-level apprentice...I haven't encountered a research bottleneck yet. If Mr. Koshava is here, I will be delighted. Crazy, he has been troubled by some problems for many years..."

"And I will try my best to help them answer their questions. Astrology is a school of truth that has just risen and declined. With the collapse of Anicia, all my research materials disappeared in the turbulence of time and space. It is my fault to leave enough legacy to the Association of Astrologers." Ignoring the apprentice's guilt, Gilbernaion continued, ",, the mirror of eternity, is the only compensation I can make to the younger generation. "

"It turns out that this is really called the Mirror of Eternity." Jonah opened his eyes wide, "So what does the well of light mean."

"Ghost knows what the indigenous people call it." Gilbernaion twisted his neck and motioned Jona to look at the sides. The astrologer apprentice looked around and found that at some point, their feet were no longer endless. The pure white land turns into a vibrant green lawn. A clear stream flows through the grassland. The skyline is still composed of stretched sand dunes, but within a radius of five miles is full of greenery. This is clearly a fairyland in the desert. Such a beautiful natural oasis, an ivory white astrological tower stands in the middle of the oasis, is gently surrounded by a stream, a few palm trees cover the bottom windows of the astrological tower, the top of the tower is 100 yards high, and a few mischievous The kingfisher sang on the beautiful statue, and if there is no music coming from the tower, a brass telescope sticks out of the tower and points to the clear and cloudless sky.

"This is... Anlicia." Jonah immediately understood that what he was seeing at the moment was a vision from hundreds of years ago,

"Yes, the person who sings in the tower is also called Anicia." Gilbernaion did not look back, but his voice was full of sweet tenderness. His steps did not stop, just taking a step, The white astrology tower was left behind, and Jonah looked back and showed a look of shock. A devastating explosion was unfolding silently. The turbulence erupted from the origin of space centered on the top of the astrology tower "Anglicia". , Tore everything within a fifteen-mile radius, and shattered rocks, metals, air, lawns, rivers, trees, soil, human bodies, and time and space itself. Only a few seconds later, there was only one side in the center of the explosion. The fierce space cracks in the sky, the original quiet oasis is turned into nothing, yellow sand is pouring into the huge pit swallowed by the turbulence, the wind and clouds in the sky change color, and a storm is gathering in the dark clouds,

"The second question, this is the remains of Anicia. Anicia is here and not here, just like myself, who is equivalent to a phantom to you." Gilbernaion has no sadness on his face. Hi, step by step, just a blink of an eye, the scene of the collapse of time and space is far away, Jonah sees the sand dunes ups and downs like ocean tides, the endless sand sea staged the rise and fall of hundreds of years in a few seconds, He saw tribesmen exhausting their strength to conquer the giant sand-eaters, building houses and fortresses on the spine of the big worms, and saw the camel cavalry of the Tocharan Empire galloping in the rolling yellow sand, drawing with sharp machete On the national border line of blood, he saw countless large and small sand-eaters along the fateful figure-eight parade route, rushing to the towering big sand waterfall like moths to the fire, and then fell, died, and corrupted. Withered bones in the quicksand, I also saw the first sail in the desert. Vigorous visitors from the Western Continent drove a simple sailing boat among the sand dunes, spreading the reputation of 33 Zawi people to the endless sea of ​​sand. Every corner of ,

In the fast passing time, the space crack at the site of Anlicia has always existed in the air at a height of 100 yards. The height of the top of the astrology tower was originally high. The crack exudes a mysterious light that does not belong to this world. , Rain, thunder, electricity, the sun is surging and the moon is lacking, all the time without the pure white light shining on the desert,

"The answer to the third question is this. The origin of the turbulence of time and space has not been blocked, and the flow of energy from another world overflows from here, forming the basic structure of the "Mirror of Eternity"." Gilbernaion Said, "I didn't expect that a failed experiment that paid the price of life would have such wonderful results. I said that I was already dead, but from a certain point of view, I and Anicia lived forever in the turbulence of time and space. We don’t feel the passage of time, we can only maintain the alive form when the audience appears. Explain this way, do you understand a little bit."

Jonah nodded as if he didn't understand, "Not only do you live here, you also live in every textbook, in every astrological tower, in every Gilberto spiral, in every astrologer's heart. "

"Well said, Gilberto Spiral, I like this name." The original instructor took his right foot, and the surrounding scene changed again. The astrologer apprentice trembled. The silent night wasteland, the night sky without a star , The road full of thorns, stones and dead branches, the familiar taste of the red soil plain in the air, a small orange-red light ball dangling in front to illuminate the road, this is not what he saw in the long coma Scene?

"The fourth question, for some reason, I know something about what happened to you, but not all." Gilbernaion slowed down thoughtfully, "The fate you bear , Is a very clever arrangement. There are too many links that I can’t decipher, so I can’t predict what happens next. You know, astrologers don’t believe in prophecies."

"I know, Master Tutor." Jonah stopped and watched the back of the first mentor go further and further away, shaking all over, clenching his fists: "I violated the oath, but the prophecy of the traitor Segles It is indeed true. I have witnessed every prophecy happen with my own eyes. Even the meeting at this moment is clearly written in the fourth prophecy. I understand that we should believe in the truth and be full of awe and curiosity about the unknown. Please think about it. Isn’t there a huge unknown power that controls everything outside the endless starry sky? Perhaps, perhaps, each of us is led by threads like a puppet show. Our behavior is just at the fingertips of the manipulator. That’s it for dancing...Have you ever thought of this terrifying but real possibility."

Gilber Naon’s back came to a halt. After a while, the first mentor slowly said: "My phantom only exists when the pilgrims arrive, so I don’t have hundreds of years of thinking time, your doubts, I had it before I was caught in the turbulence, and I haven’t been able to find the answer until now. Let’s do it, your question has been answered, I don’t know how long we can talk, now tell me about you Mysterious risotto recipe."

Jonah raised his fist, put it down again, and finally sighed a long sigh, "Papa Cherrydu’s beef risotto, according to Elliott’s analysis, the recipe is like this: Bazelal Wild Beef, sweet red peppers, onions, shallots, cream, red paprika, carrots, garlic, black pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, Zawi Empire Epton Manor wine, salt and white rice. Compared with last month, The amount of black pepper is increased, and the amount of cinnamon and cream is reduced, so the sweetness will be weakened and the spiciness will increase a bit; but a new material has brought a key change in the tone of the beef risotto, a kind of iron The savory and salty auxiliary materials,,, the new material is human blood. I have tasted it myself. Although I don’t want to admit it, it is really delicious."

The first generation instructor turned around and looked at him with a little surprise, "Human blood, why would anyone think of this cooking method? This may be a new chapter in the history of cooking. The chef called the old man, he now Where is it."

Jonah shook his head: "He is not a cook, he is the protector of Cherry Tou, a kind but harsh strong man, beef risotto is a meal he prepares for the tenants on the rent collection day."

"I see." Gilbernaion lowered his eyes, "This recipe is worth thinking about for a few minutes. While I am studying the recipe, you can ask additional questions, which is the last question."

The astrologer apprentice looked a little depressed: "I don't know... By the way, in a battle, I saw a childhood scene. That period of time is completely different from the past in my memory. I can't figure out. Which one is true, Sir, can you tell me the secret of Mr. Koshava? What kind of person he is, where is he now, and whether he is still alive."

"This is not a problem." The first mentor raised his finger, "However, if you agree to let me pry into the memory, there is a star array that can help us find a little bit of truth."

"Of course, of course." Jonah nodded without hesitation and agreed.

Gilber Naon made no action, but a huge star array lit up under his feet. Jonah couldn't sense any interstellar line energy being peeled off. It was clear that there were strong waves surging in the star array." Don't resist." Following the order of the first generation mentor, Jonah felt his forehead burn, like something got into his skull.

"We can only pick a moment of memory, I hope we are lucky enough." Gilbernaion said,

The surroundings of the two changed scenes. A familiar room appeared in front of Jonah. The hut filled with bottles, books, equipment and sundries was full of pine fragrance, leaving the astrology on the red clay plain. Before the tower, Jonah lived in this house for more than ten years,

Seventh-level astrologer Koshava leaned over to look at the baby in the swaddle, "You are really troublesome, but trouble can also be interpreted as fun. Fun is never too much, so I can’t complain about trouble. Many." The old man murmured to himself, taking off his blood-stained robe, his collarbone was clearly engraved with the tattoo of a crimson two-headed bird. This tattoo, Jona’s memory in Yekong I’ve seen it here, and I’ve seen it on the low-level officers of Miracle Grassland,

No matter what it represents, it will not be an auspicious sign. Teacher Koshava does have a secret hidden in him, the secret of the truth about the death of his parents,

Jonah bit his lips tightly, tears filled the corners of his eyes uncontrollably, but the baby Jonah smiled happily,
