Wanda, where there is no filth, no divine cherry blossoms, and no pure fire, is unimaginable to Lu Kanzaki.
Every foreign land he has visited so far has been polluted to a greater or lesser extent. In other words, the ruler of the Quiet Land seems to have little interest in foreign lands that have not been seriously polluted. Probably foreign lands without abnormal conditions have not sent gods.
Choose the need for change in the past.
So, when Lu Tian and Shia came to Hedao, which was not yet polluted by filth, they must need to change something or stop something.
"Our mission this time is to witness the budding, and the sacred cherry blossoms have not yet appeared on Wajima. It seems that our goal is to witness the budding of the sacred cherry blossoms, and the appearance of the sacred cherry blossoms means that the world has been invaded by filth...
..."
Lu Tan thought for a moment and quickly got the answer.
I'm afraid that during their journey, they may also see the birth of filth.
This mission is not a confrontation mission. Either the Land of Silence does not know the source of the filth, or the filth here is not created by other gods driving their chosen ones.
The former possibility is unlikely to be true. The filth here obviously does not reach the level of surpassing the rulers of the old days. As a god who can control many foreign lands and a god above gods, the Lord of the Quiet Land should not be completely ignorant of these.
learn.
The latter possibility is intriguing.
Because the mission of Lu Tan and Shia is to witness the germination rather than to prevent the appearance of filth in this world, this means that the emergence of filth is inevitable, and even the one in the Quiet Place cannot prevent it from happening.
.
"Perhaps there has been some game here before us."
Shia quickly understood the origin of their mission.
"The gaze and direct interference of those great beings will cause the history of foreign lands to solidify. I am afraid that before our mission, different forces have visited here and had many confrontations, and the victors left behind filth.
, and was observed by those great beings independent of time and space, resulting in that period of history being irreversible."
It can also be said that their mission this time is to make up for their previous failures.
Since Lu Jian has been to Wada before, the sprouting of the divine cherry blossoms is already an inevitable event. The only difference lies in which chosen one witnessed it.
And since Shi Ya once met Du Danping in the wasteland and told Lu Jian that this mission might be in danger, it is still unknown whether this mission will be successful.
"This ship relies on wind power. How will it travel in a windless zone?"
She glanced at the sail again and the captain Nagamasa who was looking at an old parchment map with great interest.
"We can have a chat with that Xiang, he seems a bit normal."
Lu Tan pointed at scholar Axiang who was sitting on a box nearby, flipping through his notes.
"normal?"
Shia glanced at Lu Tan strangely.
The word always seemed a little out of place when it came out of his mouth.
But this opinion is quite reasonable.
Captain Nagamasa is obviously a daydreamer who is immersed in fantasy and wants to rely on treasures to make a comeback. If you communicate with him directly, you may only get some irrelevant delusions and unreliable rumors.
It would be better to ask Axiang, who seems to be very smart.
Coming to the scholar's side, Shia didn't make a sound, but read his notes for a while.
Axiang is holding a slender brush and writing text on a line-bound notebook. The content of the text is a kind of ecological habit of fish. The format is neat and the content is complete. He is like a researcher who has gone through systematic study.
appearance.
"Your notes are very good."
Shia commented.
Her voice caught Axiang's attention, and he hurriedly sat upright while subconsciously covering up his notes.
"Just some personal hobbies."
Axiang said slightly shyly.
"You like studying fish?"
After all, Xia was also a top student in Gray Tower Academy and was very interested in research. Naturally, she was a little curious when she saw Axiang's notes.
"To be precise, it is the ecological environment of this sea."
When it came to topics he was good at, Axiang became less shy and became more eloquent.
"We have lived with this sea area for thousands of years. Our ancestors have lived by the sea since ancient times and developed civilization based on the products in the sea. However, we know very little about this sea area. Those storms and
Lightning, tides and waves, and the creatures in the sea, we don't know where they come from, so I want to understand this place."
"curiosity."
Shia commented simply.
"Yes, I have met many old people who have lived by the sea all their lives. They have been fishing since they were young and have accumulated a lot of experience. However, they only fear the sea and do not dare to understand it. They even think that trying
Knowing the sea is a sin, I don’t agree with that.”
Axiang put the notebook aside, let the ink dry in the sea breeze, and continued.
“Thousands of years ago, humans could only use inferior wooden sticks to stick fish on the beach, or rely on the fish swept by a typhoon. But now, we can build large ships that can ride the wind and waves, go deep into the ocean, and travel in the ocean.
Traveling through the storm, I believe that one day, we will be able to master the secrets of this sea."
Shia was silent.
It’s not that she thinks A Xiang is wrong. This kind of idea will appear at any stage of civilization. In other words, it is one of the driving forces for civilization to continue to move forward. It is curiosity and this kind of conquest of the unknown.
It is the spirit of courage that brought civilization from the barbaric wilderness to the present.
But in foreign lands, knowledge is pollution, and human progress is bound to be accompanied by the spread of pollution. People like Axiang may become heroes who change the course of the entire civilization, or they may become sinners who lead to the destruction of civilization.
Judging from the future situation of Wajima, Axiang's ideal has not been realized, and he may even be buried in the sea he is trying to understand one day in the future.
"Why, Miss Shia, do you think I'm right?"
Seeing that Shia didn't respond, Axiang became a little embarrassed again. He was thinking whether he was a little too familiar. After all, it was rare to have a conversation with such a beautiful woman. The result was some inexplicable topics. It was too much.
So corny.
Sometimes he would envy his good friend Nagamasa. When he was on the shore, this guy was very popular with women and could please all kinds of people - as long as Nagamasa's treasure was not mentioned.
"You said it very well, but here comes the question."
Lu Tan interrupted at this time. He picked up the notebook with almost dry ink and looked at the fish painted on it.
