Chapter 1,306 The Secret on the Clay Tablet
An hour later, our whole family gathered in the center of the yard, staring in silence at the huge fountain in front of us.
This thing does look quite beautiful, because Lin also made a petal-shaped main body for it out of pure white asterite ore on the spot - purely handmade, using her fingers to squeeze the asterite ore into a shape with a diameter of ten A few meters into the pool, this girl's brute strength finally had some effect. In this large fountain with a diameter of more than ten meters, there is a circle of water tanks about three meters wide. There is a circle of springs symmetrically distributed at the bottom of the water tank. In the center of the fountain is a green space. Our plant is under the influence of a lot of messy divine power. The big tree, whose species I can’t tell yet, is still peacefully in its original place. Bingtis used the solidification magic to re-strengthen the rock pillar below it. After all, when the fox went crazy before, it had almost hollowed out the bottom of the tree.
As a result, our new fountain looks like a strange large flowerpot: there is a circle of water column along the edge of the flowerpot, and in the center of the water column is a large tree that can almost block out the sky and the sun, and there is a piece of water under the tree. Although this strange design of the small circular grassland comes from the "construction site" left by the fox, I have to say that Qian Qian's brain also played a decisive role in it.
"Our construction is quite fast." Looking at the beautiful large fountain in the yard (perhaps this thing should be called a fountain? After all, it is purely natural underneath, and the scale of this thing is a bit too big), Bingtis was satisfied Nodding, she was also participating in the construction just now. Her main task was to give random directions with a popsicle in her mouth and to be dragged aside by me constantly.
Qian Qian happily ran around the fountain, as cheerful as a little girl, reaching out to catch the falling crystal water droplets from time to time: there is now a filter layer under the pool, and the water coming from the underground river is mixed with cinders. The filthy water column with soil has been purified enough to drink. She walked around the outside of the pool for a while, then suddenly ran along the small stone bridge reserved over the pool to the open space in the center of the pool, spinning in circles under the shade of the trees, breathing in the fresh and moist cold air inside, and turned to me and smiled silly: "Arjun, Arjun, you can still enjoy the shade here. And it's much better than the previous two! It feels like you're in front of a waterfall!"
I continued to look at the pool in front of me in silence, and continued to think about how things developed into this situation.
First, the fox dredging version came back with great success, then she got fed up and started running wildly in the yard, and then she dug all the way to the underground river, and then Qianqian came up with an idea that was not very mature, and our family repaired it by the way. Such a fountain...
You can never replicate this routine anywhere else! You said what a group of amazing guys have gathered around me!
"I said, when Sandora comes back, how can we explain to her about the home decoration?" I thought for a while. He muttered to himself, "Also, there is Lin Xue. There is something like this in the house after a long absence. This is much more exciting than planting a few flowers and replacing a piece of glass."
Next to him, Bingtis waved his hand unconcernedly: "It's okay, let's just say that Qian Qian's mind was wide open and the whole family didn't stop him. Anyway, that's really what happened."
That being said. But I was still extremely confused when I looked at Bingtis's assertive appearance: "What, this is my home..."
"Don't worry about the details. Why are we talking about this when we have such a strong relationship?" Bingtis waved his hand proudly and instantly regarded other people's homes as his own. "And you see, your little girls don't care about this." Aren’t you quite satisfied with the pool?”
When I saw it, it was indeed true. Suddenly there was something new in the yard. The happiest person besides Qian Qian is of course the bunch of naughty kids at home. At this time, Little Bubble had climbed up to the tree in the middle of the pool, and was hanging its head from the branches to greet me with a cooing sound. At the same time, she reached out to catch the water droplets that could almost spray in front of her. Ska dragged Pandora to the side of the pool and was studying how to arm the pool. Lilina also had a sense of presence at this time. She was planting some flowers around the pool with the attitude of a senior with advanced systemic diffuse obsessive-compulsive disorder. It's rough because it's not symmetrical enough. She has replanted three times.
The little doll stood in front of the pool. I wanted to take a look under the shade of the trees inside, but I looked hesitant. I quite understand her thoughts: this girl has always regarded herself as a mature, stable and experienced adult (even though she is only 92 centimeters tall), and it must be quite stressful for her to play in the water with a bunch of naughty children at home. . But I guess she won't be entangled for long, because she has an old enemy Lilina right next to her, who definitely has countless ways to drag the little doll in.
Then there will be an extra doll girl among the naughty children who need to be bathed and cleaned up later...
Forget it, let these little girls play as they please. Compared to tearing down the house, having an extra fountain in the yard is really nothing. Thinking this way, I felt relieved and turned around to look for Ji Shanshan, wanting to see how far along her clay tablet analysis work was. Instead, I saw her standing in the corner of the yard, holding two pieces of black clay in her arms. Huhu clay tablets, eyes gazing at the new pool in the center of the yard.
I:"……"
It seems that there is an extra nanny among the guys who need to take a bath and clean up today.
"Have you finished picking the clay tablets?" I walked over and waved my hand in front of Ji Shanshan's eyes, making the latter come back to his senses. "By the way, you also want to play with those little girls? How old are you?"
"No, I just suddenly remembered that there was a similar pool in front of my palace back then," Ji Shanshan curled her lips and pretended not to care, "But it is much bigger than this! And there is more than one tree in the center of the pool! "
I was stunned. It turned out that this guy was recalling what happened to him back then. It seemed that he had to pay attention to this silly doormat when he had time. I thought that she had been with our family for a long time and was completely heartless. It’s over.
"These are the two clay tablets that have been found." Ji Shanxian handed over the two clay tablets in his hands. "There are four more tablets left, which should be in this pile. I really don't know who was responsible for keeping them. These precious books are scattered in the cave like this, without even a book box. If it were my king's time, such a library keeper would definitely be punished by being exposed to the scorching sun and dying."
"What is written on it?" I looked at the heavy Sumerian "book" in my hand with great curiosity. In my eyes, those wedge-shaped strokes that looked like dried tadpoles probably had the same meaning as alien writing. Well, it’s even harder to understand than alien writing—because at least I know Xilingwen.
"About the many things dictated by the god 'Xin', as well as a falling fireball... I have already made some guesses. But let's wait until Sister Shandora comes back. She probably knows more about some things. Well, I will try my best to I found all seven clay tablets before eating, and I have already sorted them out. It is much easier than I thought." After Ji Shanshan finished speaking, he waved to me, squatted down and continued to sort the "pages." What was originally a large pile of messy clay tablets has now been carefully sorted into several piles by Ji Shanshan. It seems that she is not only trying to reorganize the seven clay tablets. I'm also trying to sort out the remaining "books". Seeing this girl who was rarely obedient on weekdays working so seriously (although it may have something to do with obsessive-compulsive reading), I suddenly felt moved and bent down to pat her hair.
"What are you doing? I'm working. If you don't understand, don't make trouble." Ji Shanshan muttered without raising his head.
"You still remember what your palace looks like, right?" I thought for a while, "Avalon is a big place, and many heroic spirits have applied to rebuild their residences. I thought that the place where you lived during your lifetime could also be rebuilt. One comes out: among the heroic spirits brought from another world, you are the only one who doesn’t have a house in Avalon.”
Jill raised her head in surprise and noticed the angle I was standing at. She first covered her chest in a meaningless manner, and then suddenly laughed: "Ha, do you think I am that kind of fragile guy? No need, I The king will not be like those guys and act like a fool just thinking about the regrets he had during his lifetime."
I was stunned: "But you just weren't..."
"It's just a casual sigh. Just go ahead and don't cause trouble," Jill arrogantly pushed me, the head of the family, aside. Then he thought for a moment, smiled on his face, and pointed to the big house behind him, "Who said that I have no place to live? Isn't this my family?"
Shandora was busy in the Shadow City until noon, but she still went home on time before eating. Her biological clock has been running in line with the meals at home for four years, and now it can basically be accurate. to minutes. While waiting for the meal to be served, Shandora walked around the yard, and naturally saw the spectacular and unexpected large fountain - to be honest. In my small courtyard, I saw a fountain that was not too small to be placed in front of the hotel. Except for Qianqian, normal people would find it strange.
"What are you doing at home?" Sandora stared at the greatly changed yard with her mouth open. "Did Xiao Deng and Lilina fight at home again and blow up a big hole in the yard?"
I thought to myself that Sandora's association skills were not bad at all - of course, it might be because she was used to a bunch of naughty kids at home being so mischievous all day long.
"The fox dug a hole in the yard and dug out the groundwater, and then Qianqian came up with the idea to build a fountain," I confessed honestly, "It's actually not bad. Fortunately, she didn't raise any objections and open a coal mine or something."
Sandora: "...Oh."
Sure enough, as Bingtis speculated, as long as the problem is pushed to the reason of Qian Qian's imagination, all strange phenomena can be explained. Shandora said on the spot that she had nothing to lament.
The fox stayed in the bathroom for nearly an hour before she came out. I guess the main reason was that she lay there in a daze for a long time and couldn't find the door. After washing up, the fox girl finally became beautiful again. She dragged a lot of gorgeous golden retriever tails out to say hello to everyone, and she even remembered her previous troubles in the yard. Now Looking very embarrassed, I kept bowing and apologizing to the TV cabinet. My sister and I came to the conclusion within two seconds: She was still fainting.
I had the intention of asking Sister Gil to explain to me what was on the clay tablet, but my sister had already invited everyone to sit down for dinner, so I gave up for the time being. After the hungry family sat down in a noisy manner, I watched the fox, who was still in a dazed state, wandering towards the dining table, holding on to the edge of the table for a long time to find it, and finally sat down on the floor...
Her condition was indeed quite serious, because the next thing I saw was her holding a chopstick of braised pork and poking her face six or seven times, and finally feeding it to Little Paopao's mouth while she was still there. So out of curiosity, I don’t know why I didn’t eat anything…
I couldn't stand it anymore, so I slapped the fox on the head and said, "Open your mouth!"
Then he put the food in her mouth and said, "Eat!"
This is how this idiot can eat smoothly.
But soon I found that I was in trouble, because Sandora on the other side of the table and Qian Qian sitting on the other side of me started poking me around with their eyes like knives. The moment I was feeding the fox. It was 100% that I hit the two people's warning points by mistake: But I really don't have any evil intentions. It's just that the fox is so confused now that people are worried for her!
At this time, the demon fox girl next to her seemed to have just realized something. While chewing food in his mouth, he sternly corrected the teapot not far away: "You have to be respectful, I am the Fox Fairy, I am not a fox. Although you feed me food, it is not feeding, you know?"
Then the sister patted the fox on the head, and the latter opened his mouth obediently again...
"She has lost the ability to take care of herself." Bingtis was not aware of the surrounding atmosphere at all. She was mainly lamenting the mental state of the fox. "It may not be as simple as going around hundreds of thousands of times. The divine power in her body has not completely dissipated. Those powers now blind her perception and thinking abilities."
Sister Bing's analysis was very orderly, but it didn't help me at all to free myself from the knife-like sight of Qian Qian and Sandora. In the end, I could only start picking up vegetables for Qian Qian to atone for my sins. Of course Sandora also cheerfully expressed the hope that someone could feed her, but I thought about Her Majesty’s appetite. I didn't dare to agree...
After finishing the meal, Ji Shanshan moved the seven clay tablets and other bits and pieces of valuable "book pages" she had sorted out to the living room, and half of the family immediately joined in curiously.
"First sort out the order, and then fill in the missing parts of the text, and wait for the king to translate it for you." Ji Shanshan solemnly placed the seven clay tablets on the coffee table in order, and those "pages" that were temporarily unused Then she put it aside casually. Among the seven clay tablets, only the first one and the other one were barely intact, and the rest were mostly damaged. So Ji Shanshan tore off a few small pieces of paper from Xiaopao's homework book and wrote wedge-shaped The text is placed in those missing areas. She fills in nearly a quarter of the entire "book" in this way. I was amazed: "There are so many things missing? How did you make up for them?"
I thought Ji Shanshan was an unexpected genius, but the other party shook his head at me proudly: "Imagination..."
Then I instantly felt a deep despair. The secrets revealed by the seven clay tablets in front of me fell directly from historical themes to fantasy novels. The only thing that comforts me now is that this thing is not just a superficial imagination. …
"The first clay tablet tells that a god named 'Xin' came to the earth from the southwest sky, accompanied by a blazing fireball," Ji Shanshan didn't care how weird the expressions on our faces were. He had already started to translate the things in the "book" by himself, "There should have been an extra character here. It was the identity of the recorder of the conversation with the god. But this part happened to be erased, so we don't know Who was the original dictator of these texts? But it doesn't matter. The god named 'Sin' was not a local god in Sumer. He was not even a god in Mesopotamia: in the clay tablets, this is recorded as 'A god from outside the world', but considering that the whole world was as big as Mesopotamia in the eyes of people at that time, it is very likely that 'Xin''s original words were that he came from another place on the earth. A bit can be inferred from the following text.”
"The second and third clay tablets mainly record the local customs and customs at that time. They are not very important, so we will skip them."
"The fourth and fifth clay tablets record some things that 'Xin' personally told a certain mortal. This is where it gets interesting." Ji Shanshan's tone was slightly lowered, successfully arousing everyone's attention. , seeing that we were all staring at her, she nodded and continued, "'Xin' told the mortals how far the edge of the Mesopotamian plain was, told them the length of the two rivers and their starting and ending points, and told the local people People, the world they live in is actually a huge rock ball. 'Xin' tried to let the locals learn a script from the 'Kingdom of God', and hoped that the locals would pass on this script: but this attempt seemed to have failed. 'Xin' told mortals that the gods did not live in the clouds, nor did they live in the mist on the very high mountain tops or on the lakes. He seemed to be trying to tell the local indigenous gods where exactly they lived, but the clay tablets used " A word for the unknown - no one understood it, and the mortal 'Xin' chose to communicate with was the most intelligent of all humans, but the latter still could not understand most of 'Xin''s words."
"Then there are many similar records. 'Xin' tried to make the locals understand something, but almost no one could understand it, or some could understand it, but it was completely beyond the mortal worldview, so they were completely misinterpreted or ignored. It is mentioned here that the earth is spherical; the sky is composed of gas, and the thickness of this layer of gas is actually very thin; the stars in the sky are not the residence or incarnation of gods; the sun actually rises on the other side of the world after setting every day. And so on and so on. There are many sentences, but it can be seen that the recorder of the clay tablets was just copying these words mechanically. He did not try to understand at all, or even dared to understand these contents. Moreover, due to the vocabulary of ancient Sumerian characters, Limited, many sentences cannot even be repeated. Many things that 'Xin' told mortals cannot be pronounced in human words, so they used some inexplicable words to record these warnings: Therefore, their original meaning can only be I figured it out based on my imagination."
"The last two clay tablets describe Xin's power and his weapons respectively." Jill paused deliberately to allow us to fully associate the previous content, and then she looked at it mysteriously. Shandora and I, "This may sound familiar to you - the staff that emits a blue beam of light, the shimmering energy shield, the flying overhead car summoned out of thin air, and the floating, automatic A floating cannon that emits thunder and lightning to destroy ferocious beasts!"
