The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 45: Star Dust (Part 1)

"Danny, Danny? Stewart." The astrologer apprentice opened the door excitedly and yelled, forgetting that he was still naked, and the Stewart male ran up in a panic, "What's wrong? , Is there an enemy approaching, or is it chirping and indigestion again,...Bah, you put on a piece of clothing anyway, so that I will have needle-eyes."

Jonah looked down, his face flushed, he grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his waist, ignoring his shyness, holding onto Danny’s hand: "I’m reading a word, you’re listening carefully, after listening Tell me later if I can think of any clues, any clues, do you understand."

Danny withdrew his hand timidly: "Okay, I'm listening,...what's wrong with you, man cargo."

"The place where everything begins and ends, the four elements are combined into one, to uncover the secrets of 540 suns for fellow travellers, do you remember anything, related scenes, where, a certain place, a memory In the picture, any information." Jonah read the prophecy of the Betrayer Segles to the opponent, staring expectantly into Danny’s eyes,

Danny obviously didn't figure out the situation, and said at a loss: "You say it again, I don't understand..."

"Uncovering the secrets of five hundred and forty suns, that is, uncovering the secrets of fifteen years ago, is this clearer." Jonah explained,

"Fifteen years ago...it was the secret of the thirty-three Zawis mentioned by my father in his last words." Danny's eyes lit up suddenly, "You have found the clue to the inheritance. , It’s amazing. The clues about the time of taking a bath came out by itself. I knew that if I took a bath every day, wouldn’t I be able to become a treasure hunter in the endless sea of ​​sand? Swallowed, there are countless unknown treasures of gold and silver buried under the yellow sand. If anyone can detect the location of these treasures...in less than a year, they will become richer than the Tocharian emperor Isaibaink. ."

Danny's eyes popped up with tiny jingle bells and shining stars, crackling on Jonah's face, dazzling him, and the astrologer apprentice scowled and interrupted the other side's day without mercy. Dream: "Stop talking nonsense. This clue is not repeatable. You just need to remember with your heart and see if you can find any information."

"I, I don't know..." Danny scratched his nose, looking helpless, "What you said is too mysterious, too...artistic, I'm not sure."

"He was talking about the worm, brother." Hannah’s voice came. I don’t know when, Stewart’s contemporary Patriarch came to the bathroom at the stern, standing behind her brother, looking at the endless sea of ​​sand. Don’t go to see the half-naked astrologer apprentice, "Do you remember that when we were young, Dad and seven sailors captured the chatter and built a simple shack on her back. You and I slept on the bunk bed. , Next to the window, across from our bed, there is an embroidered tapestry of Tantuha hung, which is the trophy that father snatched from the indigenous people."

Seeing Hannah standing close at hand, Jonah felt a thud, and blood rushed to his face. He hurriedly picked up the clothes and put them on his body, no matter he was still wet or made underwear. Soaked, after putting on that unfit large astrologer robe, Jonah took a breath and wiped the water stains on his face with his sleeve. Hannah glanced at him and smiled.

The thin 17-year-old boy looks like a naughty boy in his father’s coat at the moment. The corners of his shirt are hanging down on the ground. The sleeves of his robe are too wide to show his hands. Jona folds his sleeves helplessly. Tighten the tie, and fasten the empty collar,

Danny, who would always use questions to play, was surprisingly quiet at the moment. He frowned, "You say that, I seem to have the impression, Hannah, I sleep on the upper bunk, you sleep on the lower bunk, every time When I woke up from the dream, when I turned my head, I could see the scarlet embroidered tapestry. The inexplicable horror pattern on it made me have many nightmares. I remember that there are many strange little people on the tapestry. There are also huge beasts, many spear-like weapons..."

Hannah walked out from behind her brother and into the small bathroom. Jonah couldn't help but step back, as if a woman was covered with invisible spikes. Hannah Stewart took a towel from the hook and threw it to the astrologer apprentice , Motioned him to dry his hair, Jonah took the towel, only to feel his curls dripping with water, he nodded and gave Hannah a grateful look,

"Yes, that was the scene of the Tantuha festival." Walking out of the hut, facing Danny, Hannah recalled: "Daddy said that the tapestry depicts the worms near the worm node during the mating season each year. The situation, during the heyday of the Tantuha people, grand festivals were held every year. Since the "Ten Years War", the indigenous peoples have fallen apart. Such a festival scene has never appeared again. Dad analyzed that this tapestry has at least a hundred years of history. Up."

"I don't think it's a ghost festival." Danny said with lingering fear: "It's more like a horrible sacrifice or something. I seem to remember that there is a line of ghost symbols written under the tapestry, which is said to be an aboriginal text. "

Hannah affirmed: "Yes, one of my father’s seven partners, the uncle navigator, secretly told me that the meaning of that paragraph is'the place where everything begins and ends.' The mother of the world’s spirits came to worship, believing that the worm brings new life and also dominates the death of future generations."

"The place where everything begins and ends." Jona murmured, "It is exactly the same as the prophecy."

"What prophecy." Danny's ears were very good, and he immediately asked,

"No, nothing." The astrologer apprentice who is not good at lying quickly waved to deny it. The worm node finds the place where the'four elements are merged into one', and you can find the treasure left by your father."

Danny beamed with a smile: "Of course, of course, what's the difficulty, it's so close, it's only one step away, only one step away."

Hannah said coldly: "You are too optimistic, brother, don’t tell me you don’t know how big the hindworm is. In half of the time, to find an unknown place in an unknown area with no roads, it may take a lifetime."

"Let’s not stand here and talk. Sit down and study slowly." Danny seemed confident, pulling on Jona’s sleeves and walking towards the bow. "Hannah, you also go look after the rudder. The closer you are to the posterior worm node, the denser the ships. Don’t collide with other sand-loving worms. The'Bactria's wind' can’t help but hit it again."

"Just do your job, sailor." Hannah glared at him, her cloak turned, and she went ahead.

After taking a half bath, Jonah ran around by the excited Daniel, and found a cooler place on the deck to sit down. The male Stewart did not know where to take out the sketchbook and Charcoal, raised his fingers: "Look, use your brains together now. With my extraordinary intelligence and your little luck, you will definitely find this mysterious place."

He succinctly wrote on the sketchbook: Elements, which constitute the basic part of everything in the world,

The astrologer apprentice nodded secretly. Although the astrologer’s research is limited to the starry sky and things on the ground are not in their interest, the definition written by Danny is still very scientific and reasonable,

"That's right." Danny said,

"Exactly correct." Jona nodded,

Danny danced with charcoal and continued to write smoothly: "There are as many kinds of things as there are in the world, there are as many elements as there are."

Jona frowned secretly. This statement seems a bit idealistic. Objects are composed of elements, but the types of elements are limited, and the number of objects is unlimited.

"That's right." Danny looked up,

"That's right." Jonah hesitated,

Danny pens dragons and snakes and writes on the sketchbook: "For example, fire is composed of fire elements, rice is composed of rice elements, women are composed of female elements, and iron pots are composed of iron pot elements."

"Cough, cough, cough..." Jonah was choked by the messy theory of the Stewart boy,

"That's right." Danny raised his eyebrows.

"..." Jona was speechless,

Danny dashed out four circles representing the elements on the paper, then stared at the sketchbook with a serious expression, and kept talking to himself: "If the treasure is buried here, the four elements exist at the same time. Place, the fire element that represents the power of heat, the rice element that represents the power of life, the female element that represents feminine energy, and the iron pot element that represents strength and abundance..."

"Well, let me just say something." The astrologer apprentice couldn't help but say, "Your working method seems to be a little problematic..."

Danny held up his palm and blocked Jonah's mouth: "Hush, I'm approaching the truth, don't disrupt my thinking, the four elements coexist, so it's like this...I see." He lifted sharply. Started, staring at Jonah's eyes with a sharp look, "This is the truth. It turns out that the legacy of the dead ghost father has been buried by our side. This is really a genius design... Hannah, Hannah, I found it." /

Hannah Stewart's figure standing in front of the wheel rudder remained motionless, and she didn't even turn her head to ask, "Is it, okay." She replied lightly,

"Flame, rice, woman, iron pan, what do you think of." Danny stared deep into the cabin, "Huh...The legacy of the Sand Pirate King is hidden by our side, right... …In the kitchen."

As soon as the voice fell, the male Stewart jumped up and rushed towards the gangway, then climbed up and disappeared at the top of the stairs,

Hannah glanced back, "Don't mind, every family will have a scum, this is the law of nature."

Jonah smiled bitterly: "It's okay, I have some ideas, look."
