The gentle breeze blows thousands of miles, wrinkles the lake water, blows down the flowers and leaves on the ground, and also blows away the long hair of the two people. At this time, the hair strands are intertwined, like the path of life blending, and the ears and temples are connected, which is a conveyance of congeniality.
.In the slightly cold wind, they hugged closer, cherishing the warmth that closeness brings to their hearts.
After hugging each other for a long time, Shulot let go of his embrace, still holding Alyssa's hand tightly. He looked at the girl's eyes, which were just a pool of autumn water, but he didn't know that when the girl looked at him, they were already two beams of flames.
The young man stared carefully for a long time, letting the autumn water extinguish the flames. Then he turned his head, looked at the falling leaves, covering the roots of the flowers, and said with a smile.
"Alyssa, now in the garden, I will tell you the story of plants!"
The girl leaned closer and listened, her smile as clear as water.
"Alyssa, the world is a cycle. The story of plants is the cycle of plants."
"There are two cycles of plants. One is the cycle of generations. When a seed falls into the soil, it is like your figure falling into my heart. It will begin to sprout, grow slowly, and absorb the nutrients of the soil, just like absorbing my love for you.
Your thoughts...
Then, it grew vibrant green leaves, cheering for the sunshine and jumping for the rain and dew, just like every time I met you. Then, beautiful flowers bloomed, like your bright smile, and we stayed together from now on. Soon, the flowers
It will bear fruit in a while, containing the seeds of the next season. This is the fusion of love, giving birth to new life...
Eventually, new seeds will leave and the cycle will begin again..."
Shulot spoke in a low voice, with a hint of melancholy at the end.
When Alyssa heard the last part, she opened her eyes wide in surprise and looked at the boy innocently.
"Our love merges and gives birth to a new life? Shulot, do you want to be with me..."
Shulot's face froze, looking at the innocent girl, he quickly interrupted,
"Ah, yes, people who love each other will move the gods and give them new life... Alyssa, listen to me continue."
Alyssa hesitated to speak. She looked at the embarrassed young man, suddenly smiled like an elf, and nodded happily.
This time, Shulot's story is much more serious.
"The other is the cycle of nutrients. There are also two types of cycles of nutrients. One is plant nutrition, including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, uh, I will explain these three names to you later... Yes, you can understand
Become the divine power of the Mother Earth. Most of the nutrients for plants come from the earth. Only beans can be captured from the air, so beans must be replanted... Beans rely on bacteria in the root system... Yes, bacteria have different effects, some
Good for mankind...
The nutrients of the plant enter the body of the plant, and also enter the flowers, leaves and fruits... When the flowers and leaves die and fall into the dust, they will be slowly eaten by bacteria and become nutrients again. And the fruits will be eaten by people and humans.
When animals eat it, it will be expelled again and return to the earth...
Therefore, in order to grow crops, we Mexicans need to replenish the floating fields with excavated river mud, fermented fertilizers, and burned plant ash... The most important of these nutrients is nitrogen fertilizer. In the future, we will occupy
Islands and salt ponds rich in nitrogen fertilizer are used to fertilize the Alliance's land and to create powerful weapons...
Ah, you mean the gods? The gods created the physical objects in the human world and also created the laws of change. And the rest of the human world will be decided by ourselves..."
Alyssa looked at the boy, her bright eyes flickering, accepting the new world, and asking curious questions from time to time.
"Plants also provide us with human nutrients, such as corn, beans and pumpkins. These nutrients are called carbon, and its cycle is called the carbon cycle... Yes, this is a gift from the God of Corn to humans... The carbon of plants comes from
In the air... Well, the air is tangible, and there are many, many substances in it. I will prove it to you later...
Sunlight injects vitality into plants, and with the help of water and time, these nutrients are gathered into fruits that humans can eat...Humans obtain vitality from fruits, then consume it in daily activities and release it back into the air,
With every breath we take...
No, Alyssa, you can’t do this, even if you don’t breathe, your life force will be consumed!”
Having said this, Shulot stretched out his hands and pressed Alyssa's bulging cheeks, and the girl's breath blew on the boy's face, bringing with it the freshness of sapodilla gum.
Yes, there was no toothpaste in this era. Aztec and Mayan nobles chewed the milky white gum of sapodilla to keep their mouths clean and teeth white. This gum also became the raw material for natural chewing gum in later generations. And sapodilla
Also known as ginseng fruit, the fruit is heart-shaped. It was also introduced to the Ming Dynasty along with corn, pumpkin and pepper decades later, and may have some connection with the ginseng fruit in Journey to the West.
At this time, Shulot held the girl's cheek, looked at her squeezed and pursed lips, and suddenly stood stunned. Then, as if being tempted, the young man subconsciously lowered his head and leaned forward, getting closer and closer.
Alyssa blinked, and then smiled slyly. She took a light step back, and the boy kissed him. Then the girl held his hand again and said happily.
"Xulot, let's go see cute animals!"
As the sun set, Xiuluo took Alyssa's hand and sat together. Under a twenty-meter-high mahogany tree, the two of them raised their heads and looked at the black-palmed spider monkeys jumping and climbing among the treetops.
The origin of mahogany is tropical America. It has a hard texture, exquisite patterns, reddish color, insect resistance, long-lasting, and has a special pleasant fragrance. In later generations, this was an extremely valuable wood and was also used by European royal families.
It was used as a royal furniture material. At this time, the Mexicans also liked its aroma to repel insects and ants, so they also planted it in their gardens.
The black-pawed spider monkey is only about half a meter in size. It has a round and small head, slender limbs, and a tail that is longer than its body. What is special is that its hands have no thumbs. This is a long-lived monkey, and some can even live for more than thirty years.
At this time, they were jumping freely back and forth on the tree, resembling spiders when crawling. From time to time, the young monkeys would wrap their slender tails around the branches, swinging upside down, and look at the bottom of the tree with lively eyes.
people.
This chapter is not over, please click the next page to continue reading! Shulot looked at the monkey on the swing and suddenly had inspiration. Well, swinging is a happy thing, regardless of age. He can do it for Alyssa
A swing is placed in the garden so that she can be happy alone or with you.
Alyssa opened her eyes wide and looked at the lively long-tailed monkey. After a while, she shook Shulot's hand, and then gave the boy who looked over a bright smile.
"Xulot, do you know what monkeys represent in mythology?"
Shulot pondered for a moment. He had not received a complete priestly education and was not familiar with mythology. But looking at the girl's happy smile, the young man thought for a while and guessed.
"The lively monkey...represents dance and music?"
Alyssa nodded.
"Yes, the cute monkey symbolizes dance and music, as well as art and beauty. At the same time, it also represents games and fun. The monkey god "Ozumatri" is the god of music and dance "Hughchi"
Piri's companion..."
Having said this, the girl blinked her eyes and looked at the boy seriously.
"However, the monkey has a lively mind and cannot restrain its own thoughts. It is also a symbol of desire and passion... Shulot, is there a monkey in your heart?"
Looking into Alyssa's pure eyes and listening to her questions, Shulot stood stunned on the spot. He wanted to say something, but he felt that the oath was meaningless and everything would change in time. In the end, the young man just stepped forward.
Taking a step forward, he hugged the girl tightly again and whispered confirmation in her ear.
"No... at least now, I only have you in my heart... As for the future, no matter what, you are the most important person in my heart... I will prove my feelings to you, and I will tell you that I am deeply buried in
The secret..."
Alyssa's eyes dimmed slightly at first, and then brightened again. She looked at the boy and smiled with trust and joy.
After a while, the two came to the aquarium lake paved with white stones and watched the colorful fish swimming in the lake in different pools.
Shulot first looked at the nearly two-meter-large fish in the salt water pool. After identifying it for a while, he swallowed. This was a tribute sent by the Totonac people during the king's coronation ceremony, a red anchovy in the Gulf of Mexico.
. Red anchovy is an extremely delicious high-grade edible fish. The fish meat can be made into sashimi and the fish head can be made into soup. It is extremely delicious.
"Well, when I got it from Avitt, it was just in time to cook fish for Alyssa."
Looking at the big fish swaying happily in the water, the young man secretly made a note of it, yearning for it in his heart.
Then, Shulot looked at the fish pond next to him. Swimming in it were yellow-spotted crappie, with black scales with bright golden edges and deep blue eyes. They were scattered and swimming in the lake.
, just like the gorgeous lights in the water, and like the shooting stars across the sky.
This kind of fish can live for more than ten years and is also known as the "French Fairy" in later generations. Among the nearly half-meter-long adult fish, there are scattered juvenile fish, ranging from one finger to the size of a palm. From time to time,
The young fish will clean the parasites from the larger fish and fight with each other.
Looking at the fighting young fish and the independent adult fish, Shulot fell into deep thought for a long time. After a moment, he smiled at the girl, full of meaning.
"Alyssa, the world is a cycle. The story of animals is the cycle of animals. This is the cycle of life and the cycle of the human world. From birth, animals have endured the competition for survival. Only healthy individuals can survive.
Living a fragile childhood...
In adulthood, competition is everywhere, from food to the opposite sex, from survival to reproduction, to the power to rule the group. In the natural jungle, only the strong can get everything. At the same time, he must be extremely careful and not
Injury or illness reveals one's vulnerability. Because the stronger the person, the less they can rely on...
However, he will eventually grow old. Aging is inevitable, fragility is inevitable, and the glory will be far away. The end of life is to die alone, giving up everything he has gained, and a new strong person will take over...
The cycle of the human world is the alternation of life and death, as well as the alternation of power in the world! In the long past, no one could change all this. In the unknown future, I still don’t know what will happen..."
Alyssa looked at Shulot, confused by the boy's words, but she could feel his vicissitudes of emotion. The girl thought for a while, stood on tiptoes, imitated her father's movements, touched the boy's head, and then smiled naughtily.
.
Shulot's complicated emotions were interrupted by the girl. He was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled.
Then, the young man raised his head, seeing the bright red sunset in his eyes and the faint chanting in his ears. Dusk had arrived, darkness was approaching, the grand New Year sacrifice was about to come to an end, and the one-day paradise would eventually return to reality... He thought
After thinking about it, there was still something I wanted to say the most, so I made a decision.
Soon, night fell. The two of them sat at the top of the Quetzalcoatl Temple, on the thirty-meter-high pyramid, looking at the dazzling stars.
The place is being renovated, and the statue of Quetzalcoatl has been melted. The wind passes through, and there is nothing in the temple except the two people alone. The pyramid at their feet is filled with flowers from the residents of the capital to worship the gods.
Mixed with sparkling gems. Obviously, the old beliefs cannot be changed in a day, Quetzalcoatl is still alive in people's hearts.
Underfoot is the sky of flowers and stars of gems, and above the head is the night sky and the dazzling Milky Way. Shulot and Alyssa sat side by side on the edge of the temple, looking at the distant stars and the eternal beauty, silent and silent
.The girl swayed her calves gently in mid-air, while the boy carefully hugged her tightly.
Shulot stared at the infinitely clear Milky Way in the Middle Ages, with thousands of stars twinkling in it. The stars are like the sand of the Ganges, so far away that they don’t know where they are going, and they are so vast that they don’t know their geometry. This is the eternity of time. And under the starry sky,
People are so short-lived and vague. They just want to pass by like a meteor, leaving a dazzling mark, burning and never returning...
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this moment, Shulot couldn't help but think of his past life and the poem he wrote to himself when he was an adult at the age of eighteen. At this time, it seemed a bit appropriate.
.The name of this poem is called "Eternal Life".
"Eternal life... Standing on the top of the mountains with hands behind my back, the wind blowing to my bones shook my hunting clothes.
A fresh world and a friendly atmosphere.”
"Looking up at the sky in silence. The gaze between the eyebrows penetrates the boundless blue sea.
Metal buildings and wood flow with infinite vitality.”
Whether it is the dazzling stars, the shadowy moon, or the stars hidden in the depths,
They are all above the nine heavens, looking down at the common people..."
At this time, looking back, recalling this young poem, and feeling the past emotions, Shulot's eyes suddenly became dark.
Will the eternity he once longed for really last? Or will it end somewhere far away from the Pyramid of the Moon... A new world has arrived, and a lonely traveler is pursuing it. He is listening to the call in his heart and looking for life.
The anchor point, looking for the eternal crystal in time... Perhaps, he will eventually climb to the nine heavens and look down on the people of the world. And by then, what is the pursuit of his life?
Shulot didn't know the answer. He just had a strong desire to tell it to someone who was willing to believe it completely. So, he stretched out his hand, held Alyssa's shoulders, and looked into those clear eyes, seriously and honestly.
"Alyssa, the short-lived world is the eternal starry sky. There are the sun, the moon and the stars... When Avitt and I first met, we talked about the story of the sun and the moon... But I still want to tell you
Telling about the stars.”
Alyssa, the world is a cycle. The story of the starry sky is the cycle of time. Time moves forward silently. I once thought that it was an eternal one-way flow, from the destined past to the infinite future... However,
When the stars fell, I made a wish. After five hundred years, I was destined to meet you...
Yes, I do not belong to this era, I am just a drifting soul... In the cycle of time, a soul goes in one direction. He continues himself, but also loses his memory, meets others, and is also lonely and separated...
.He longs for the sublime, pursues ideals, and is willing to sacrifice everything to change history...but he still has extravagant hopes in his heart...
He is just looking forward to one day, there will be someone who can completely understand him, who has the same mind and has the same interests. He can give all his trust, reveal the truth in his heart, get close to each other's chest, and warm each other from then on... accompany him to the end
at last...
Alyssa, my love. Now, do you see my heart clearly?"
Alyssa looked at Shulot, feeling the vulnerability and loneliness that she had never experienced before in the young man, and her bright eyes slowly became crystal clear. The girl approached carefully, close to the softness that was hard to preserve in time.
. Then, she didn’t speak, but slowly and forcefully hugged the boy tightly.
After a long time, Alyssa whispered quietly but firmly.
"Xulot, I will protect you."
In the long river of time, she reached out her hand, pinched the drifting soul, and gently put it into her heart. From then on, under the witness of the starry sky, she crossed time and power and agreed to protect it for life.
