Chapter 308 Historical Puzzle
In the collection tower, among the rows of bookshelves full of traces of time, Ling Yi held a brown animal skin scroll and looked at the scrawled writing on it with relish.
"Storm Douluo - The Legend of Sylven" is the personal biography of a titled elder from [Martial Spirit Hall] more than 700 years ago.
This is the authentic original, the only copy. Except for [Martial Soul Hall], there will be no second copy in Douluo Continent.
This biography records the more than seventy years of experience of this soul master named Si Erwen, starting from the awakening of his martial soul at the age of six, and practicing all the way to the title Douluo. Although there are many There are whitewashing and personal subjective ideas, but it vividly shows Ling Yi the humanities, geography, current affairs, etc. of Douluo Continent more than 700 years ago.
Because throughout the book, except for a little bit of praise for Sylven himself, there is basically no ulterior secret involved, so this "Storm Douluo - The Legend of Sylven" is classified into the category of humanities and history. Placed on the first floor of the collection tower.
The six-story collection tower has stored [Martial Soul Palace] for thousands of years. Except for some top-secret information, almost all written classics, paper records closer, animal skin records further away, Further afield, there are metal and stone carvings.
The first layer is basically the humanistic history of Douluo Continent, the second layer records information on various soul beasts on Douluo Continent, and the third layer is [Martial Soul Palace] 】Of all the martial arts and bloodline information recorded in history, the fourth level contains some unclear myths and legends that are unknown to be true or false. The classics are the rarest. The fifth level and above are not open to the public, except for the pope and titled elders. Only Cardinal Moussos was able to make an exception.
Under the introduction of Moussos, Ling Yi had a general understanding of the information on the first four floors of the collection tower, and was also told that he could browse the classics at will in these four floors, but he was not allowed to damage any of the classics. .
In terms of time, [Martial Soul Palace] is very generous. Mousos said that even if Ling Yi can watch it for half a year, there will be no problem. On weekdays, few people are willing to watch these boring things. Classics, with Ling Yi here, this collection tower will be more popular.
Also, the huge collection tower covers an area of more than 3,000 square meters on the first floor, and the area of each higher floor is only a little smaller. The height of the floor is more than eight meters, and the six floors add up to more than 15,000 square meters! In such a large space, most of the time, there are only Musos who stay on the first floor, and the Contra who has been practicing with his eyes closed all year round at the staircase leading from the fourth floor to the fifth floor. It is difficult to find a third figure.
Of course, Ling Yi would not be so foolish as to believe that there were only three people in the collection tower, including himself.
At least, when Ling Yi was first led up to the fourth floor by Mousos and greeted the Contra named Zhang Ji, for a moment, a feeling of being spied on came over him. On Ling Yi's mind.
Although this feeling is fleeting and ordinary people may not notice it at all. Some soul masters with strong senses may regard it as an illusion, but as a person who can use the power of the soul to use the 'superego state' Ling Yi, who looked back on all his experiences, could be very sure that at that time, there was someone at least titled Douluo level, who secretly took a look at him.
As for the source of that ‘gaze’, Ling Yi was 100% sure that it came from the sixth floor of the Collection Tower!
Apart from anything else, the entrance to the fifth floor is guarded by Contra Zhang Ji. It is natural and reasonable to send a titled Douluo to the sixth floor.
Limited to the fact that his current strength is too weak, Ling Yi is very self-aware and does not think about what kind of information will be stored in the fifth and sixth floors of the collection tower.
It is useless to think about it, it will only increase the troubles. It is better to move all the classics on the lower four floors into the sea of mind and consciousness.
Ling Yi in his previous life understood a truth: the gold in your hands is not as good as the copper in your hands.
Just like that young lady from the Academy of Fine Arts, although there was a roommate in his dormitory who was even more handsome and taller, Ling Yi always focused on the young lady at that time, which made the young lady My sister was extremely satisfied secretly and openly, and allowed Ling Yi to unlock more knowledge.
It can only be said that the young ladies are also very competitive with each other. Otherwise, when the two of them broke up peacefully, the young lady's roommate would not be with Ling Yi right away to help him get over the shadow of relationship failure.
Back to business.
Although Mousos was a little surprised that Ling Yi did not go to the second and third floors immediately to see the information about soul beasts and martial spirits, he did not say anything. Anyway, the first four floors They are all open to Ling Yi. Ling Yi has the freedom of personal choice as to which part he wants to start with.
Musos people don’t have this curiosity when they reach middle age, but someone in their prime doesn’t have such good concentration.
"Brother Ling, why don't you go read those soul beast information above? What's so interesting about these biographies? They're all just bragging..."
A clear voice like an oriole rang in his ears, 'waking up' Ling Yi from the content of the animal skin scroll in his hand. Ling Yi turned around and saw a picture that, although still childish, was already full of wealth that would captivate the country. A beautiful face comes into view.
Light burgundy slightly curly hair is spread around the shoulders, the facial features are exquisite and almost flawless, the skin is like cream, the pink mouth is pouted, the head is slightly tilted, and a pair of bright star eyes are filled with curiosity and inquiry. He looked at Ling Yi with a flickering expression.
Bibi Dong, fourteen-year-old Bibi Dong, is inexperienced, innocent and kind-hearted.
Who would have thought that decades later in the original timeline, the little girl with her head tilted like a cat would become the true number one person in the world in Douluo Continent, [Martial Soul Palace] Your Majesty the Pope, the first empress of [Martial Spirit Empire], the new Rakshasa God, has set off a war that has swept across the entire Douluo Continent. If the gods above had not shamelessly cheated on the protagonists, Bibi Dong would have definitely accomplished the feat of unifying the continent. , ending the Douluo Continent’s state of division and separatism that lasted for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
Being from an ancient race that has adhered to the "idea of great unification" for thousands of years, Ling Yi recognized the unification of the mainland from the bottom of his heart.
Of course, this does not mean that Ling Yi will side with the [Martial Spirit Empire] represented by Bibi Dong. Even if His Majesty the Pope's appearance and figure are very good, the little fox Hu Liena and the little angel Qian Renxue are also very good.
In Ling Yi’s view, the war between the [Martial Spirit Empire] and the protagonist’s alliance army in the original work is essentially just a game of interests between the religious regime and the feudal aristocratic system, and neither side can be considered a serious player. What justice.
It can be assumed that after the [Martial Spirit Empire] won the victory, and after the two gods Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue ascended to the divine world, Hu Liena, as a saint, took over the power of the empire.
Hu Liena will be a strong one in the Titled Douluo class, but over other Titled Douluo in the empire, she does not have the crushing advantage of the two gods like Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue. Even if he becomes a level ninety-nine peerless Douluo like Qian Daoliu, the great ruling elder of [Martial Soul Hall] under the manipulation of the new Rakshasa God and the new Angel God, there is always no shortage of geniuses in this world. .
Not to mention, we are all heroes and elders who conquered the world together. Do you, Hu Liena, have the cold heart to massacre the heroes and elders?
Some people may say that Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue can learn from Lao Zhu and clean up in advance to resolve the unstable factors and leave Hu Liena with a 'clean' empire.
But unfortunately, this is Douluo Continent, not Yanhuang, where civilization is bright.
To put it bluntly, Ling Yi doesn’t look down on Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue, Ling Yi looks down on the entire Douluo Continent!
So, if the final result does not go as expected, [Martial Spirit Empire] will inevitably embark on a new path of decay.
Ling Yi has always felt that instead of looking for a perfectly functioning political, military, economic, and people's livelihood system, it would be better to give Brother Zheng an elixir of immortality.
This is not to say that Zheng Ge is superstitious, but compared to the filth and darkness derived from human grouping, Ling Yi is more willing to let a strong enough individual become the sole leader.
After all, an individual’s desires can be clearly seen and relatively easy to satisfy, but the desires of a group often breed more evil.
Of course, it would be best if this dominant individual is Ling Yi himself.
After all, everyone above oneself is equal and everyone below oneself is hierarchical. This is a desire that has been rooted in the hearts of most people since the birth of human group society.
Looking at Bibi Dong at this moment, Ling Yi's mind was spinning with all kinds of thoughts, his thinking extended infinitely, daydreaming about various possibilities of the past and present life, and the main plot of the original novel, but he immediately said responded. "Whether it's soul beast information, martial soul bloodline information, or these humanistic histories..."
Ling Yi raised the animal skin scroll in his hand and said: "To me, they are all the same."
"The same?"
Bibi Dong opened his eyes Kazilan's big eyes looked at Ling Yi with some surprise: "How can it be the same?"
"Study the soul beast information, you can make the best configuration in the selection of soul rings, and maximize the enhancement. own strength. When encountering a soul beast, you can also find the weakness and countermeasures of the soul beast immediately."
"Understanding martial soul information, on the one hand, understanding the characteristics of one's own martial soul, has many benefits in the development of martial souls. Moreover, when meeting other soul masters, we can also know ourselves and the enemy, which improves our chances of winning..."
Bibi Dong said with a serious face, raising her white chin with a hint of pride on her face.
Looking at the question ‘Isn’t what Teacher Bibi Dong said great? Praise me! Praise me! With an expression on Bibi Dong, Ling Yi smiled slightly, raised the animal skin scroll in his hand again, then opened it, pointed to the above paragraph, and said: "Look here -"
I didn't get what I expected. In response to the compliment, Bibi Dong's pink little mouth pursed slightly, a little moody, with a bit of unhappiness, and her big eyes looked hard at the content of Ling Yi's finger.
[...In mid-August of 1889 in the Douluo Calendar, we encountered a bear-like soul beast with dark gold fur in the Star Dou Forest. It was obviously only a century-old soul beast, but its sharp claws could easily break it. Quentin's fifth soul skill defense is the Black Turtle Armor! 〕
[Fortunately, at the critical moment, I used my fifth soul skill and attacked the bear's head with a wind blade like a rainstorm, blinding it and blowing the horn for the final victory. 〕
〔Will put away the bear carcass. Originally, I wanted to taste the bear meat, but Will took out the roasted snake meat from his bracelet. It's more delicious, after all, it's a thousand-year-old phoenix-tailed crested snake...]
After reading this content, Bibi Dong blinked and looked at Ling Yi, asking, 'That's it? ’ expression.
Ling Yi smiled, closed the animal skin scroll in his hand, and took down a new animal skin scroll from the third to last shelf of the bookshelf next to him.
Then, he opened the scroll called "The Strong Man of Corgi City", opened it to a position slightly behind the middle, and stretched out his finger again to point to one of the sections.
‘If it weren’t for your good looks, I wouldn’t accompany you here doing such boring things! ’
Muttering something in her heart, Bibi Dong rolled her eyes angrily, but driven by curiosity, she had the patience to look up.
[...In the year 1899 of the Douluo calendar, Lord Will Smith defeated the former city lord Nobo with absolute strength and became the city lord of Corgi City. The right man who could tear apart everything in the world The claw soul skill has ruled Corgi City for thirty years! 〕
Seeing this, the smart Bibi Dong frowned slightly, and her eyes paused on the 'right claw soul skill'.
At this moment, Ling Yi took down a new animal skin scroll from the bookshelf on the other side.
Open it in the same way, and turn to one of the contents in the same way. This time, before Ling Yi reaches out to point, Bibi Dong moves his gaze there and looks at it inquiringly.
[...In the year 2077 of the Douluo calendar, Count Xizaki Smith defeated the fallen soul master of the soul emperor level with the strength of the soul king level, and defended the XX territory. The people of the territory believed that, In front of the earl's palm that can penetrate everything, there is no crisis that cannot be overcome...]
"How is it?" Ling Yi looked at the little face and became serious, like a little adult. Bibi Dong asked with a warm smile: "What do you think?"
Hearing Ling Yi's voice, Bibi Dong came back from her thoughts and asked impatiently: "Brother Ling, what happened at the beginning? Is the 'Will' in the volume the same as the 'Will Smith' in the second volume? "
"Then, the 'Kizaki Smith' in the third volume is the same as the 'Will Smith' in the second volume? What’s the relationship between ‘Will Smith’ in it?”
"The year of Douluo calendar is 1889, the year of Douluo calendar is 1899, and the year of Douluo calendar is 2077."
"The difference between the first two is ten years, and the difference between the latter two is nearly eighty years. Years, so, is 'Kizaki Smith' a descendant of 'Will Smith'?"
The more she said it, the brighter the light became in Bibi Dong's eyes, until finally, the light appeared on her delicate face. The intoxicating blush made the whole person feel indescribably excited.
“Haha~”
Ling Yi closed the animal skin scrolls in his hands one by one, and then put them back to their original positions, looking at the two bookshelves in three different positions. Scroll looked at Bibi Dong and asked with a chuckle:
"How about it? Do you feel like you are doing a jigsaw puzzle on the 'Historical Scroll'?"
"Yeah!" Bibi Dong nodded vigorously, looking at Ling Yi's extremely handsome eyes with shining eyes. His face was still in an excited state of discovering a piece of unknown history.
I have to say that the fourteen-year-old Bibi Dong is really innocent enough. Just such a little trick can make her succeed like this.
You know, in my previous life, I was with the young lady from the Chinese Department in the library. The two of them played games such as History Solitaire, Poetry Solitaire, etc., connecting two historical events hundreds or thousands of years apart to show cause and effect. Relationship, the contents of different poems are spliced together, and the artistic conception is not inconsistent.
In comparison, Ling Yi somewhat understood why Yu Xiaogang, an 'ordinary person' who was not good at words and whose appearance and abilities were not outstanding, could be so attracted to Bibi Dong.
The lack of basic education makes the people on Douluo Continent seem extraordinarily 'simple'?
Thinking of this, Ling Yi thought of those people who have been infected by his personality charm over the years.
‘It’s not that my tea skills have improved, but that this place has not been baptized by the tea ceremony~’ Ling Chacha thought to himself.
"Dong'er, how well do you know the information about the soul beasts?" Ling Yi asked: "The bears with dark golden fur and indestructible claws, are there any relevant records on it?"
Continue tomorrow, good night everyone~
Finally, I wish you a happy birthday! ! !
May time change but you remain unchanged. I wish you are gentle and strong, kind but sharp~
