Chapter 215 [History]

Thirty-five years ago. Roland Empire has a calendar of 925 Spring.

Perhaps many have long forgotten what happened this spring. In the minds of most people, the only thing that seems to be remembered this spring, more than 30 years ago, is that this spring seems to have arrived extraordinarily late.

Early spring chills swept the middle of the continent, and in order to prevent the soldiers from being frozen during spring manoeuvres, the Commander-in-Chief of the Army made a particularly thick army uniform, which, after a busy job, was finally sent to the various armies before spring manoeuvres.

This spring, however, was not so simple. For the people of Didu, a lot of things happened this spring that later affected the entire continent.

Just this spring, His Majesty the Emperor Augustine VI officially established the Crown Prince status of his only son, Crown Prince Awen. And also this spring, the elder of the Rollin family died, and Raymond of the Rollin family, who inherited the title of Earl, became the new Earl of Rollin and inherited the fertile Rollin Plains of the land.

Among the young aristocrats of the Empire, this 20-year-old Raymond, undoubtedly a rising star, his talent, his outstanding martial arts skills and his military genius, convinced all those who looked after him that the Wuhun family, the Rollins, had another outstanding elder.

And at this point, the young Count Raymond's best friend, was Crown Prince Awen, who had just been established Crown Prince. One is a young and promising future empire general, one is a future empire emperor, the two people have a good personal relationship, so that everyone looks after the future of the Rollins family... the distinction is a sign of the future generation of Ming Junliang. And at this point, who would have thought that one day in the future, the great prince, considered the future emperor, would be defeated? And this immeasurable future of the Rollins will fall into disgrace and disgrace the Baron?

At this time, they are young, hopeful, and proud of the spring breeze.

Also in his golden years, the head of the Lester family. It was a famous beautiful man of the Emperor, his masterful, intelligent and funny, who, within a year of his arrival in the Emperor, conquered the aristocratic circle of the Emperor with his personal charm. From music, flowers, art, astronomy, divination, history, dance… as if nothing would happen to this Mr. Lester. And his handsome face like a sun god, his intoxicating smile made countless aristocratic maidens and noble ladies dump it.

Even His Majesty the Emperor Augustine VI sealed a jazz title for this Mr. Lester. Despite the fact that the title of jazz is an immortal lower rank, the title, which was personally sealed by His Majesty the Emperor, doubled the value of this Mr. Lester in the Emperor's capital.

Meanwhile, Mr. Lester also owns a billionaire family, a well-known rich family on the continent, whose background is enviable: young and rich and talented, making him the lover of countless young girls.

Even more memorable, just this spring, Emperor Blue Sea scholar finally flew!

In everyone's memory, about a few years ago, a middle-aged man called the Blue Sea came to Didu. Nobody knows where this old guy came from. He was never dressed in a plain cotton robe with long hair scattered so casually. He chose to live in the south of the city, where civilians gathered. On the long street where he lives, everyone, every day, sees this Mr. Blue Sea smiling across the street.

Whoever you are, even if you are just the owner of a bakery, or the driver of a carriage, he will nod to you with a smile as long as you say hello to him.

In the eyes of these civilians, this Mr. Blue Sea is versatile! Because since he got here, he's solved a lot of tough problems for everyone on many occasions.

If you get sick and look down on doctors, you can call Mr. Blue Sea for help, he will find you some herbs that even professional doctors can't understand, and you will soon be cured of your injuries and illnesses.

At first, people thought that Mr. Blue Sea was a doctor.

Later, when the owner of a poorly run grocery store next door decided to sell his property back to his home, it was not clear how to calculate the accounts accumulated over the years. Mr. Lanhai only calculated for him one afternoon and settled all the accounts for six years.

At this time, Mr. Blue Sea was thought to be an excellent bookkeeper.

Later, a merchant in the leather business exposed all the leather goods in the yard, while Mr. Blue Sea went to tell him that it would be raining in the coming month, persuading him to transport all the wet goods out of the empire. The fiery solar flames were the hottest season of the year. No one listened to the advice of this Mr. Blue Sea.

As a result, it turns out, as the Blue Sea man said, two days later, the storm poured down and rained for a month in a row, causing multiple executions on the Lan Canal, and the leather merchant suffered a heavy loss.

Afterwards, everyone thought that Mr. Blue Sea was probably an astrologer.

Subsequently, a tailor, in order to make a new robe for an aristocratic lord, accidentally lost the fabric that the aristocrat had given him and found Mr. Blue Sea for help. Instead, Mr. Blue Sea simply pulled down a curtain and made a new robe out of that curtain one afternoon - and none of the people who saw the robe had a beautiful style that didn't flatter the dress.

At this time, people started to wonder... what else is Mr. Blue Sea not going to do?

His reputation began to spread.

A man who worked as a florist in a nobleman's house accidentally killed the nobleman's favorite pots of flowers. After asking for help from Mr. Blue Sea, who taught him a few ways, those basins of dead flowers could have a miraculous resurrection.

A trader who trafficked livestock was deceived by his opponents and bought a thousand bad horses for a great price. When faced with the cost, he turned to Mr. Blue Sea, who accompanied him to see the horses, picked out two pregnant female horses and gave the merchant an order.

As a result, the two pregnant mares gave birth to two of the finest horses! And two years later, those two stallions were trained to fight for thousands of miles a day, and just selling the horses made the businessman earn all his money back.

The most amazing thing is that one night, a thief broke into Mr. Blue Sea's house... and didn't know exactly what happened. After dawn, the thief had been dressed as a servant and had since stayed with Mr. Blue Sea as his faithful servant.

The fame of the Blue Sea began to spread in the Emperor. A number of civilian families around them have begun to ask Mr. Blue Sea to educate their children.

Three years after his arrival in Didu, Mr. Blue Sea has become a well-known scholar. Although he lives in a civilian area, eats regular bread, doesn't have a carriage, lives in a simple little yard, and even faces a horse would greet him politely.

But everyone respects this gentleman very much. Certainly -- some imperial scholars don't think so. They consider the existence of the Blue Sea to be an infringement of their identity.

As a scholar, how can you mix in dirty civilian areas? I heard that Blue Sea sometimes goes out without shoes... this is so rude!

So someone came to the door and looked for her. Challenge this Mr. Blue Sea in the name of discussing the subject… but without exception, every scholar who comes to the door looking for trouble will eventually leave with shame. And the Blue Sea still carries a chair every day, sitting in the yard under the acacia trees.

His fame began to spread to the ears of some nobles. At first, these aristocrats thought that the Blue Sea was just a traditional scholar… just like those “scholars” who needed to please themselves, brag about their horses, and help themselves to be sublime.

As a result, the Blue Sea rejected almost all “invitations”.

This move made him an "ignorant hillbilly" in the minds of many aristocrats.

Paradoxically, just in the spring of Empire 925, at the triennial Academic Conference of Scholars, unexpectedly, this lightly renowned Mr. Blue Sea actually participated.

This is a gathering of almost all the most prestigious scholars in the Emperor, and it is also the best opportunity for scholars to spread their reputation and raise their values. All the learned scholars of the Empire will present their doctrine and demonstrate their studies at this congress. Traditionally, anyone who excels at this triennial convention is often hired as a court scholar!

And this time, everyone's scenery was covered in the Blue Sea.

Among a large group of scholars in Chinese costumes, dressed in vegetarian robes, barefoot blue sea, is such an alternative. In the eyes of many mockery, the Blue Sea raises three questions for famous scholars:

The first question: When a person is born or a baby, they are not ashamed of being naked, but why when they grow up, they all wear thick clothes and are ashamed of being naked?

The second question, he asked, is, for the beast, the whole of life is: mating, fighting, hunting. And the same is true in human life: mating, fighting, hunting. So, where exactly is the difference between man and beast?

And the third question, even more interesting, was, he went to the most famous college student in the emperor's life, and he asked the scholar to hold a bunch of blooming flowers in his hand, and he held a piece of cow shit in his hand, despite people's surprise, and he smiled, "What do you think of when you see me?" And what was on my mind when I saw him?

This strange move shocked everyone.

None of the three questions of the Blue Sea can be answered in full at a conference that brings together so many famous scholars who are arguably the most famous in the entire empire.

After an intense discussion, the Blue Sea briefly announced its own answer:

Question number one: He tells you, "When you're dressed now, it's not your body that's hiding. What disguises your inner shame. Babies are not ashamed. ”

The second question, the difference between man and beast, is that no one on the field can answer it accurately, and the Blue Sea easily tells you that the biggest difference is that we “think” about it here, and the beast doesn't.

And the third question is even more interesting. He held the cow shit in his hand, looked at the college guy with the flowers in his hand across the street, and asked him what he saw when he looked at himself. The college man said to the Blue Sea in a derisive tone, "I see cow shit." The Blue Sea is not angry at all, but rather gracefully tells each other, "I see the flowers in your hand. ”

At a time when the colleague thought the Blue Sea was disguised as soft on himself, the next sentence of the Blue Sea made him completely silent.

“What you see in your eyes is cow shit, that's because your heart is thinking about cow shit. The shitty flowers I see in my eyes, that's because I think of flowers in my heart… Sir, that's the difference we made before. ”

With these three questions, the Blue Sea subtly gives these hypocritical scholars the greatest irony. The first question, ironic about these guys' shame, the second, ironic about them not thinking… and the third, ironic about their dirty hearts.

After all that had been said, the Blue Sea left with a smile.

Just after that day, the fame of the Blue Sea was utterly echoed by the Emperor, who alone silently asked hundreds of scholars, and many more were ashamed to leave the Emperor.

On the evening of the Empire's 925th spring, the Blue Sea sat beneath the great acacia tree with a cup of tea in its hand, standing quietly behind the thief servant he had taken in.

At this point, a teenager as young as 10 years old stood outside the door of a small courtyard in the Blue Sea and had stood fully for an afternoon.

The teenager was thin and tall, had a very clear appearance and appeared to be poor and cold. It's just that he's standing there, and he's got a different look in his eyes, as if he had a pride in his bones.

He waited from noon until the afternoon until, in the evening, when the door to the small courtyard in which the Blue Sea lived was opened, he walked in.

“Mr. Blue Sea.” He stood at the door, and Qingxiu's face was full of firmness: “I come to ask you to accept me as your disciple. ”

Blue Sea laughed, he didn't get up, he was still sitting there with tea in his hand, he noticed that the shoes on the young child's feet had worn off, he noticed the dust on the child's face, he noticed the child's weak body.

“You're from far away? ”

“… Northwest.” Juvenile Answer: “I walked a month all the way to Didu, and three days ago I heard your name, and I thought you could relieve my confusion. ”

“What do you want from me?” The Blue Sea is interested in this child.

“Answer.” Juvenile voices are low: "Sir, I hear that you are the smartest and most learned man in Didu. I come from the northwest, and my family lives in Desachon, where my great-grandfather was a nobleman, my grandfather was an officer, and my father became a blacksmith in the army, and he told me that the army would protect us. But my sister died three years ago. My family was visited by horse thieves dressed as heterosexuals. The heterosexual bandits insulted her, cut her head off and hung it on a fence in the yard. My mother took me into the cellar, and I listened to the bandits insulting my sister, and I heard my sister crying, but my mother covered my mouth, and we didn't go out. After the bandit left, her mother cried three days and three nights later, she died of illness, her father was killed a year ago by horse thieves, all the property he left me, only one sword, and five bronze horns, and one sentence... ‘Live’. Distinguished Sir, there are many more people like me in Northwestern Tessa province. I don't know. Is this fate dictated by the benevolent gods? Can our miserable destiny not be changed? ”

The teenager's voice was dull, and there seemed to be something in his eyes that even the Blue Sea could not see directly.

He saw a cloth bag behind the teenager, which seemed to have the outline of a sword.

After a long time, Blue Sea sighed, and he looked at the teenager and apologized, “Son, I'm sorry, I can't answer your question. ”

The teenager's childish and steadfast face flashed a deep disappointment, he was about to turn away, and the Blue Sea suddenly called him: "Wait. ”

The teenager stood still, and the Blue Sea had risen from the chair and walked to the teenager's side, and he looked into the teenager's eyes and whispered: “There are some things that we cannot think of… but not all things must have answers before we can do them… Many times we will do them first and then we will look at the results. We can do it first, even if it fails, then at least we know that it doesn't work —— it's a gain. If we just think about it and don't do it, then maybe wait a lifetime for you to think about it and nothing will happen. ”

After a pause, he slowly said: "I can't tell you the answer, but I can help you to try… child, what do you want to learn? ”

“Wu!” the teenager replied resolutely.

Blue Sea smiled: "Wu? As you should know, I'm an academic. ”

Juvenile silence, he seemed a little embarrassed and a little disappointed. But Blue Sea stared at the teenager for a while and said softly, "Come with me. ”

As he said, the Blue Sea seemed to be heading back inside, but he asked again: “I almost forgot... what's your name? ”

“Rodriguez.” Juvenile Answer: “You can also call me Rodney. ”

“Okay, Rodriguez.” The Blue Sea gently meditated on the name, and he smiled: “You are the first disciple I have ever accepted… and, I think, the only disciple to learn martial arts under my door, if not unexpectedly. ”

•

Rodriguez walked into the house with the Blue Sea, and there was a door inside, a small room.

“The door was never locked.” The Blue Sea laughed, “But I thought you might be the only one who went in there besides me. ”

This little room inside is not as small as it looks from the outside. The Blue Sea is obviously a person who understands how to make the most of the space, and even more surprisingly, Rodriguez is surprised that there is an attack on the curtains, and on the curtains, those strange words and patterns… Rodriguez actually recognizes them.

“This is...” The teenager's face suddenly becomes strange: “Is this the text of those savages in the prairie? ”

“Yes." Blue Sea stood in front of the teenager, answering very calmly.

“Why do you have this stuff here? ”

“Because...” said the Blue Sea with a smile: "Because I myself am one of those ‘savages of the grasslands' you said... if you don't mind. Actually, I'm not from the Roland Continent, I'm from the grasslands, I'm from the grasslands. ”

Rodriguez's face changed and he couldn't help but take two steps back and look carefully at the Blue Sea.

The blue sea's eyeballs are blue, and there is no sign of any grassland heterogeneity, and his elegant temperament is even less than the appearance of a half grassland man.

“Do you find that strange?” Blue Sea smile: “Perhaps in your heart, the so-called prairie people, are all those pioneering men on horseback? But how much do people really know about that grassland? ”

Blue Sea said, he gently lifted the rag and revealed a long box behind him.

“I come from the grasslands, but not from those tribes and herders. At the northern end of the meadow is a snowy mountain, the highest peak of which, the legend stands on it, and you can touch the sky directly with your hands up. Above Snow Mountain is the sanctuary in the hearts of all grassland peoples, because that place is the cradle of all Shamanic wizards. Every Shaman wizard on the prairie comes from a snowy mountain… and the people on the snowy mountain are not the same race as the people on the prairie. We look just like the Roland Empire.” Blue Sea said, with a smile on his face: "I was already on Snow Mountain when I was born, and it wasn't as wild as you'd imagined. In fact... on the Great Snow Mountains, there are relics of a civilization completely different from that of the Roland continent, and we, the Great Snow Mountains, claim to be the remnants of that lost civilization. ”

Rodriguez was somewhat surprised: “You…"

“Don't use that look.” The Blue Sea smiled faintly: “I haven't been there since I left Snow Mountain. Because a long time ago, it was clear to me... that the mountain was simply a bunch of lunatics... or, in other words, a madly remnant race. I left the mountain and came here just to be unwilling to go crazy with those people. ”

After that, Blue Sea gently opened the box, which contained an elongated sword!

After opening the box, a cold air from inside the box immediately covered the entire room! Young Rodriguez was stirred by the cold air and could not help but tremble slightly. The cold moon-like light reflected on his young face, with a green air, a strange circular arc, appeared on the blade, which seemed to be covered in a layer of clear and crystalline ice prism, but could see...

It's sharp!

“The name of this sword is‘ Beauty Under the Moon ’.” Blue Sea sighed softly: “Though I don't think you're fit to use this sword, … I'll lend it to you temporarily. Because this sword is powerful, but in the future, when your martial arts reaches a certain level, it will become a shackle that binds you. Because this sword does not belong to you, and although it can bring you some improvement, one day you will find that you will not be able to use its true power, and that is when you will become bound. ”

After a pause, Blue Sea asked, "Didn't your father leave you a sword? You can put that sword in this box. When one day in the future, this beauty will no longer be able to provide you with growth, but will become your shackle, you can come here and take out what you exist here, your father's relic sword. At that time, I will teach you how to cultivate a sword that truly belongs to you, a sword that can match your soul with your sword. ”

Rodriguez stared carefully at the beauty of the moon in the box, even though he was young, he could still feel the magic and extraordinary of the sword... the teenager suddenly moved in his heart: “Sir, whose sword is this? Did you use it? ”

“It's mine.” The Blue Sea smiled, “But now I can't use it anymore. ”

Rodriguez was somewhat surprised: "Sir… have you ever been a warrior too? ”

A strange expression appeared on the face of the Blue Sea. Instead of immediately answering Rodriguez's words, he reached out and gently caressed the sword of the beauty under the moon. His movements were gentle and delicate and he sighed softly: “Not anymore. ”

Then he smiled as if: "Anyone who leaves the Great Snow Mountain must voluntarily give up the same thing that belongs to him… and what I left in the Great Snow Mountain is my ‘martial soul'. ”

The teenager was a little confused, and what the Blue Sea said, the young Rodriguez, was now incomprehensible. But the teenager's heart, his entire attention was focused on this “beauty below the moon”.

It's so beautiful! Rodriguez has never seen such a beautiful sword! Its beauty seems to hide all its dangers in it. The chills seem to make people's souls deeply and independently trapped in it...

While the teenager was stunned, the Blue Sea had taken the sword out of the box, and Rodriguez quickly held it in his hands.

“With this sword, I will teach you a martial arts… just this martial arts, not so easy to learn, especially at the beginning, you will even progress much slower than ordinary people, but once you have really practiced it, you will discover that the power of this martial arts is endless. Are you... willing? ”

As the teenager answered softly, "I do”, and since then, there has finally been a strong decision on the mainland!

A "genius” that took 25 years from level one to three, and only five years from level three to eight!

Roland Empire 925 Spring.

This spring, Prince Avenger became Crown Prince, and everyone thought he would be the future Emperor.

Raymond Rollin became the new Count of the Rollins. The Count's inaugural banquet was situated in the new Count's Hall, and outside the guest hall, the back door of the Count's Hall, on a carriage, a young horse was sleeping tight, and he mumbled in his mouth: "Damn the weather, it's still so cold at night... Alas, is that butler so magnificent... Hmm, I, Mad, can one day also be a butler...”

And on the same night, in the surprise of all, the popular mistress, Mr. Lester, who was worshipped by countless young girls, unexpectedly married a beautiful girl of poor descent, on the eve of his wedding, Mr. Lester smiled at his newlywed wife: "Honey, in the future, if we had children, I would like to be a beautiful daughter… In honor of our love, I would like to name her after you… Lynn Lester. ”

Meanwhile, Augustine VI, the great emperor of joy, has begun to turn his conquest to the northwest, with a huge map hanging in his bedroom, and in the northwest corner, heavily painted a circle...

When all this affects the history of the future continent, all this happened on the same night, a teenager named Rodriguez, in a cabin in the Blue Sea family, lifted his sword and began his lifelong struggle.

“My child, since you are now my student, I will tell you my real name.” Blue Sea looks a little obsessed with this young disciple of beauty under the moon: “Remember, my real name is‘ Blue Haiyue ’. ”

Rodriguez stunned: "Blue Hyatt? What a strange name. ”

“Not the strangest.” The Blue Sea scholar smiled softly and his face suddenly grew serious: “I would also like to remind you of one thing that I ask you to remember in all circumstances! ”

“What?”

“Remember a name, and you must swear to me that under no circumstances will you face that man! Because if there really is a demon in the world, then he must be the closest one!” The face of the Blue Sea has become incredibly harsh.

“Yes, Teacher, please. ”

“That man, he's my brother, my own brother. But I always thought that maybe when the Spirit sent his soul to the world, it must have been in the wrong place... he shouldn't have been born in my house, he should have been the devil directly... in fact, when I left Mount Snow, he had been appointed the only one to be the next Witch King! ”

A strange glance flashed in the eyes of the Blue Sea, and he smiled bitterly: "Perhaps by chance, perhaps by fate, his name, coincides with my name in a strange contrast. ”

Speaking of which, the college man gently sighed: “His name is... White River Woe! ”

With this sigh, the Blue Sea gently reached out and dipped water in the teacup and wrote down a few words that Rodriguez didn't know at all. The young Rodriguez looked at the words as if they were squares and gave a strange expression: “This is...”

“This is the text on the Great Snow Mountain, unlike that of the Roland Empire. White River Sadness, that's what it says. Perhaps I'm the only one in the empire who knows this kind of writing. ”

Despite his versatility, he was wrong in his last words.

Because, thirty-five years later, there was a man on the continent who recognized that word.

This man, of course, is... Dewey!

(Nine thousand words in this chapter, make up one thousand, still owe three thousand words, let me make it up slowly in the next few days, the cold is not ready, the speed can not be raised. Shanghai is very cold today, and... I have to say, Shanghai's water sucks.

Monthly ticket…… Monthly ticket……)
