Chapter 167
Grow a little older
God? From the beginning, Ferns had doubts about this so-called "god". It was a rather strange feeling.
If God is virtual, then there will not be such an overly specific image description, because the unknown is the source of faith. When everything is spread out in front of human eyes, if it cannot be consistent with that person's imagination, faith is
It will cause destruction.
If God is a man-made reality, then Aaliyah should not be so full of fantasies about the image of God. She...or her family must have seen the so-called God's appearance. Only in this way,
Only those who control everything behind the scenes will find it easier to use the identity of God to do things.
As for the real God... I'm sorry, just look at the scholars in religious schools and you will know that the images of God created by humans today are definitely not real.
The arrogance of being an interstellar human made Ferns look down on this so-called "god" from a very high angle, and secretly speculated whether this "god" belonged to the former or the latter, and what methods he was using to deceive these Tanlons.
Er people.
Recalling what Bitter Leaf Deer said before that they had been enslaved by the interstellar people for three hundred years, Ferns couldn't help but wonder whether this "god" had used some method to get rid of the interstellar people stationed here before they were enslaved.
As "god".
The journey to the human area was not long. Ferns just had some thoughts in his mind. When he raised his eyes, he saw the big iron gate that Aliya said her grandfather looked at every day.
It's not like a steel plate, it's like an iron mesh. You can see the outside scene through the gate. It's not to save iron. The main reason is that the big iron gate is too heavy. It doesn't take seven or eight young adults to work together.
It doesn't move, and it's inconvenient to open and close it. In addition, the surrounding protective fences are almost the same, and the iron doors don't match well either.
A group of Tanlon people gathered at the door. They were the parents of those students who were still at home. They were all anxiously waiting for the return of Kuye Lu. When they saw Aaliyah's safe figure, they all said hello to each other before they dispersed.
The students also went to school again, and Aaliyah followed them. She didn't seem to be frightened, and there were no wounds on her body, so Kuyelu let her go to school.
Knowledge is a good thing, and Kuye Lu knows this very well. After all, he is also the inheritor of Tanlon'er knowledge.
This time, the children were not allowed to go on their own. A Tanlon woman who had taken care of the family affairs took the initiative to come forward and escort the children to school. The parents who stayed behind discussed with each other and felt that there would still be more children in the future.
Only an adult can follow. Just one person from each family and take turns.
Since Kuyelu was alone with his children and was usually responsible for guarding the gate, he was not included.
Ferns did not follow the Bitterleaf Deer into the first area. He was too conspicuous and there were so many people gathered at the door. He still had some self-awareness.
After the crowd had finished discussing this matter and dispersed completely, Bitterleaf Deer waved to where Ferns was hiding.
Ferns walked out from behind the trees. He had to say that the image of the first human area was very different from the image of a normal gathering place in his imagination. He had seen what low-level civilizations on many planets should look like.
Although what we see in front of us is still relatively primitive civilization in general, there is an inexplicable feeling that the level of civilization has actually reached a certain level.
In the middle of the forest, there are quite neatly built houses, and there are smooth cement roads that lead to who knows where and how long they are... Everything in front of you has a strong sense of fragmentation.
Bitterleaf Deer did not sit on his stool, but kept holding his stick-like weapon made of unknown material, leaning on it like a walking stick, waiting for Ferns to walk in, and then brought
He followed Ferns towards the nearest house. The room at the far end of the first floor was the home assigned to the Bitterleaf Deer.
It was a two-bedroom apartment with two bedrooms. He and his granddaughter usually lived in one room each. "That's Aaliyah's room. You can live there from now on. I will take Aaliyah's things to my house."
inside."
"This is too troublesome for you." Ferns was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that Bitterleaf Deer would treat him so generously. It was clear that he was an interstellar person of unknown origin... and he actually let him live in his home.
"No, you won't be able to stay for long anyway, and maybe you won't be able to stay today." Kuyelu said without any tact, and said it with profound meaning, as if something was wrong.
But when Ferns asked further, he didn't answer the reason, which made Ferns somewhat uneasy.
"There are often new people coming here, so unfamiliar faces are something that people here are accustomed to. You don't have to worry about this."
Bitterleaf Deer casually said what Ferns should pay attention to, found a pair of tightly wrapped clothes, and wrapped his hair again, so that the only thing Ferns needed to do anything about was his face.
After washing all the dirt off his body, Kuye Lu thought for a while, took out a box of ink he bought for his granddaughter Aaliyah, mixed it with water and asked Ferns to use it to wash his face.
This kind of ink is not like the one on earth. It has very strong dyeing properties. After dilution, the color is close to the skin color of the Tanlon people. It will last longer and is not afraid of being rubbed off by sweat or water.
There is a mirror in the house of Bitterleaf Deer. Winter is coming. In order to improve the house's ability to keep out the cold, the newly opened glass factory has replaced all the windows in the house with glass windows to further improve the warmth and cold resistance. By the way, the mirror is also sold.
few.
Looking at himself in the mirror, Ferns wanted to cover his face. If fans saw him like this, it might become a dark history in his life.
"There are two kinds of people here. One is Tanlon people like me." Covering the ink basin and putting it in the cabinet in case it is needed later, Bitterleaf Deer wiped his hands while telling Ferns.
With.
"One is the messenger of God."
Ferns froze in his movements, not quite understanding what Bitterleaf Deer meant, whether it was what he thought.
"God's messengers are easy to distinguish. You will know them when you see them."
"You don't need to pay attention to the envoys. Even if they talk to you, you can ignore them. They won't do anything to you. If you don't respond, they will leave soon."
"We use Kulanyin as currency. If you want to live here, you have to earn it yourself. I will not provide help. Keep walking along the middle road. There are houses being built behind and some construction workers will be recruited there.
, you can also go and see for yourself what to do, there is a lot of work there."
Bitterleaf Deer's attitude is obvious. He will provide Ferns with a place to rest and will not reveal Ferns' identity and existence. But other than that, Ferns has to bear his own expenses.
For living expenses, Bitterleaf Deer will not become a free cash machine for him to use.
But the fact that the other party was willing to do this made Ferns full of gratitude. After sincerely thanking him, the disguised Ferns walked out of the room and walked on the smooth and flat cement road.
The entrance seems very quiet, as if most people are not there, and indeed they may not be there. After all, this is the time for work and school. Except for some Tanlon women who are not at home, the Tanlon women who are at home also have their own
I have work to do and I won’t wander around casually outside.
Following the direction guided by the Bitterleaf Deer, after walking past the huge open square in the middle, Ferns suddenly discovered that there were suddenly more people around him.
…
The Bitter Leaf Deer watched Ferns's back go away, holding his old friend, the weird-shaped stick weapon in his hand, and sat back on the stool.
His eyes glanced at the little insect lying in a corner, looking very leisurely and comfortable. He smiled to himself and seemed to be muttering to himself, "God is watching everything."
Bitter Leaf Deer is an inheritor, but the knowledge he inherits is biological knowledge, a variety of biological knowledge that was once recorded in the Tanlon civilization. Of course, until now, a considerable part of those creatures have
Already completely extinct.
Just like the name of the bitter-leaf deer, it is an extinct creature - the inheritors of their lineage. Men usually use the scientific name of a creature as their name, while women use the name of a plant.
, just like Aaliyah.
Ku Yelu's son and daughter-in-law are also inheritors. He has never told his granddaughter Aaliya about her parents. In fact, it is because he doesn't know what to talk about. They have learned so much biological knowledge but never have a true understanding of it.
Have any living creatures? Or are they talking about how after giving birth to offspring, they thought they had left behind a legacy and had successors, so in order to really see the appearance of those creatures, they rushed into the Yegu Forest without hesitation, and never heard from them again whether they were alive or dead.
?
He didn't know what to talk about, so he never described these things to his granddaughter Alia.
In some ways, the bitter-leaf deer are as unfortunate as humans like Hulan.
Because he knows the true face of those "gods" - Zerg.
Other inheritors just put a lot of effort into passing on the existing knowledge, and it is impossible to pass on some additional things about the Zerg. Of course, the interstellar people will not tell the Tanlon people about the dangers of the Zerg.
What is the need? With the strength of these Tanlon people, when facing the Zerg, there is no room for resistance other than to die. Tell them that there is no point except letting them know what they are facing before dying and dying full of fear.
The effect is that it would be better not to mention it, so that they can die more peacefully.
Bitterleaf Deer is different. What he inherits is the knowledge of various creatures, and Zerg should be among them. Moreover, it is very important knowledge, and the exam is the focus of it.
From the beginning, Bitterleaf Deer knew that he was living under the hands of the Zerg. Outside this paradise-like residence, there were many Zerg. They were just trapped and used as toys for the Zerg called "God Envoys".
There is no difference from those pigs and sheep raised in captivity.
Bitterleaf Deer thought about whether he should fight to the death, kill some of the Zerg and end his own life. Anyway, he would die in the end. This death would at least have some dignity, but the existence of his granddaughter Aaliyah changed his mind.
He doesn't want his granddaughter Aaliya to die, even if everything is just a false beautiful bubble that can be burst at any time, he also hopes that Aaliya can live a better life, so it doesn't matter if it is a Zerg breeding ground, as long as the process is beautiful
, just treat it as a dream.
He wanted to see Aaliyah grow up, and grow up a little bit more.
