Chapter 173 The Right Line

To say that Cecil's deepest impression on the family is that when a relative suddenly came to him when he was a child, his parents opened the door and said with a polite smile on their faces: "Xiaohan, do you see who is here?"

Usually, they are the seventh and eighth aunts that Cecil doesn't know at all. Although he is a family of three, there are many relatives on both sides of the parents. Completely unfamiliar relatives will always appear suddenly during the New Year and holidays.

I really didn't expect that after traveling through two worlds...uh, let's say two planets, I can still encounter exactly the same scene, which is very speechless.

"This one..." Cecil looked around twice, always feeling familiar everywhere.

Strange old people are not young, not the kind of "old people" in their 60s who grab a seat on the bus, but at least [-] years old, wearing a Chinese tunic suit, with a slightly stooped back, and a kind smile on a wrinkled face. The eyes appear even smaller.

"Are you?" Cecil looked more and more familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but couldn't remember it, "Have we met?"

"You've probably seen my face before." Lao Tzu spoke Chinese with a smile, "But, you must have never seen me."

Cecil was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly slapped his thigh: "Yuan Longping!"

The old man finally laughed out loud: "Then you should also guess who I am?"

"Rice God!"

"...I am the God of Saturn."

"Oh."

The God of Civilization has not appeared for a long time. Before leaving last time, he told me that he might not be here for a while. Even if he is extradited, he must go back to recuperate. After all, there are many people on earth and many beliefs, so they can recover quickly.Today, the arrival of the god of agriculture means the return of the Chinese gods, which made Cecil suddenly full of confidence.

"Are you extradited?" Cecil asked cautiously.

"Otherwise? Fly over here?" The god of agriculture laughed.

"It seems to be really possible..." Cecil suddenly stopped talking, glanced at Langdon, and got a slight nod.

He invited the others out, leaving only Langdon, Saturn, and Cecil. He told the story about the Dijals. Unexpectedly, Saturn said calmly, "Well, we know."

"You know? Why didn't you tell me?" Cecil was a little anxious, "I thought I had traveled through a parallel universe or something!"

"So what if I told you? Do you still want to go back?" the god of agriculture said slowly.

Cecil frowned: "Can't you?"

"Do you have Leap or FTL technology?" Saturn asked.

"I didn't." Cecil's voice lowered, "Isn't it because of you!"

"You can't go through the passage we are taking." Saturn waved his hand.

Cecil curled his lips: "One of the mana wells left by the Dijals can develop magic that travels through the planet!"

"Huh?" God of Agriculture seemed a little surprised, "A real person?"

"No, it's a soul." Cecil thought for a while and said.

"Oh, soul? Hehe, this soul... I don't know what the Dijals think about it, but it's like setting up an AI according to your personality, so does this count as you?" Said the god of agriculture kindly. , I don’t know why it always makes people feel gloomy, “What is the soul? Is it a substance? A mental patient has learned someone’s life, tone and actions, and imitated them so vividly. Is that a real person?”

Cecil thought for a while, and had to admit that this kind of discussion about the soul is simply the culprit of human beings. It is not a good time or a good place to go deep, so he simply changed the subject: "Why are you here all of a sudden?"

"It should have come earlier." Lord Saturn didn't care much, and went downhill, "I should have come a long time ago, the conditions and passages for extradition have been cleared up, but let's sum up the Chinese gods. I don’t think it’s okay and I shouldn’t run here all the time. You, you underestimate the world, you always feel that you can walk sideways here with a few of us old guys, so we decided not to come here for the time being, and let you Let’s grow up, and we’ll come back when we’re ready.”

Cecil: "..."

"It looks like you've done a good job." Saturn seemed not to see Cecil's polite but awkward smile, and said with complacency, "The Mage Tower has been built... huh? Your route is wrong, isn't it a good idea?" Do you follow the socialist scientific development route?"

"This is not my place," Cecil said.

"Oh?" Saturn let out a long breath, "I mean, the outside is like that. If this is your territory, I really don't know what you have done with your scientific development."

Cecil: "..."

It was almost shabby, and the God of Saturn took out a briefcase from his sleeve with a smile. It was the flat black briefcase that the middle-aged boss especially liked. The hand has been stretched into half of the arm, which has already far exceeded the area of ​​the briefcase.

"Well, why don't you have a table here?" Said the God of Agriculture.

"This is not my place." Cecil repeated helplessly.

"Hey!" God of Agriculture sighed, changed his hand and took out a table.

The two-meter-long stainless steel table clanged when it was placed on the ground, obviously it was not light. Then, like a magic trick, Saturn took out glass test tubes, retorts, hoses, microscopes, glass pieces and A table full of all kinds of experimental supplies that Cecil couldn't name, looked like some kind of laboratory.

"Are you...?" Cecil asked blankly.

"Streptomycin is an element extracted from the soil. It is a special medicine for the Black Death!" The god of agriculture laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, "I took a brief look at your environment before I came. It’s time to come in handy. Don’t think this set of specifications is relatively simple, but starting from the basics can just accumulate experience for your chemical experiments. I heard Xiaocha and the others say that your chemistry is still in the enlightenment stage, right? Then take the extraction of streptomycin as a homework, and it can also solve the plague problem, killing two birds with one stone!"

Cecil looked at the items on the table, then looked at Saturn's slightly smug expression, hesitated, and said, "Of course this set is very precious, but... this plague has killed so many people, Can’t you just bring the special medicine? I remember that the person who made streptomycin first tested tens of thousands of medicines before extracting a stable medicine. When we get it here, the plague will be over, right?”

The room was quiet, Cecil, Langdon, and Saturn stared at each other for a long time without speaking.

"I'm training you!" God of Saturn coughed heavily, "Do you think it's easy to bring things here? There are so many, messy things are troublesome! Just the microscope, 2000 times, more than 5, it's too expensive We are allocated according to the top level, if you ask the God of our family, like that Cangjie, you will know that you despise your grandson and have no ability to lose his face for thousands of years, asking him to pay some money is like killing you! I knew you With this attitude, I simply don’t want to come!”

You, the god of agriculture, are at least tens of thousands of years old, and you are not much better...

Cecil swallowed this sentence back to his stomach, and the set brought by Saturn is indeed a good thing, not to mention anything else, colorless glass is the father of modern chemistry, and Cecil has not been able to create colorless glass so far This is a fact, and a microscope worth 5 yuan is indeed very expensive. He also had a microscope when he was working in a pharmacy. The cheap amateur model is only 400 times larger. It has been used by the staff of the Chinese pharmacy to detect the colony of breakfast fried dough sticks and judge whether it is true. Overnight goods.

"Thank you." Facing the power of money, Cecil bowed his head honestly, "Then I'm busy now?"

"Busy, busy." Saturn waved his hand, "I'm walking around by myself."

When the God of Saturn left slowly, Cecil stared at a table of laboratory things in a daze for a while. He didn't have this knowledge, and he might be able to say a few words about Chinese medicine and its pharmacology. He himself said something, "The concubine can't do it".

Streptomycin is extracted from the soil. This gossip was talked about when I was playing with the microscope in a Chinese medicine store. Cecil remembered the staggering number of experiments. In fact, the whole process is very ordinary, which is to continuously analyze and extract the Elements, and then through experiments to determine a certain element for a certain disease.The reason for this series of experiments was that tuberculosis bacteria would disappear when they fell into the soil. The relevant experts at the time thought it was strange and believed that there must be something in the soil that could cure tuberculosis, and they even chose a poisonous species by mistake.

Stories belong to stories, practice belongs to practice.

Langdon moved a wooden stool for Cecil, and he sat blankly in front of the huge stainless steel table for a while, eye-to-eye with Langdon was so awkward, he simply went out and took a handful of dirt, sat back at the table and looked Seeing the muddy hands, he hesitated for a moment, wiped the corner of the table, clumsily got a little mud between two pieces of glass, and put it under the microscope.

"Hey, there are so many things!" Cecil shouted excitedly to the camera, and when he finished shouting, he took out the glass piece and said to Langdon, "Do you know any experimental mages?"

The corners of Langdon's mouth kept twitching, as if trying to suppress a smile.

In any case, extracting streptomycin cannot be done in a day or two, so Cecil had to put it down temporarily and focus on the plague in front of him.

Cecil's proposal was strictly implemented without conditions. If it weren't for the "miracle" created by Luther, Pippen might not be able to support it for so long just relying on the strict mayor of Tambunita to set the conditions. Citizens There is also a lot of trust in the people who Luther admired, which made all the measures quickly established.

Of course, there are some people who are not so happy, such as those who have been screened out for suspected diseases. Of course, there will be special people to deal with this kind of thing. In the end, there are a few more companions in the "corpse yard".

All the people who were exposed to the sun for "treatment" on the city wall were dragged down. Unfortunately, these people are already terminally ill and hopeless, so they can only be put in the epidemic area to wait to die.

Being tightly wrapped all over the body has indeed greatly reduced the channels for the spread of the plague. On the seventh day after Cecil arrived, there were no new patients for the first time, and Pippen fell into ecstasy.

"Thank you!"

"Thank you for your rescue!"

"Benevolent mage, please let me chant your name!"

"May you be loved by the God of Magic!"

There was a group of people kneeling in front of Cecil, and he had nowhere to hide, but there was one thing that needs to be clarified: "I'm not a mage!" There were too many people, and his voice was not loud enough, so he had to raise his voice and shout again, "I'm not a mage!"

The crowd suddenly fell silent, and countless pairs of eyes stared at Cecil.

"I'm not a mage." Cecil lowered his voice, "This isn't magic either, it's science. Magic can indeed save one person, er, it may save a lot of people, but science can always save you in a cheaper way." Let more people survive."

People looked at each other in blank dismay, seeming to understand and not understanding.

"It's like paper." Cecil had to mention this most simple and easy-to-understand example. Everyone in Luoye Bay was deeply impressed by the changes brought about by this thing, "Magic cleaning is of course good, efficient and clean, but it's not Accessible to all and expensive, can you spend all your mana slots on cleansing spells? I've heard of people forcing themselves to shit once a day to save on cleansing spells, but it doesn't have to be, Paper is so cheap and easy to carry, everyone can take care of themselves, this is the power of science, and it belongs to everyone.”

People showed stunned expressions.

"Do you have a way to cure the Black Death?" After staying here for so many days, everyone has become accustomed to the name Black Death, after all, the image is scary enough.

"I can't yet." Thinking of the table of experimental instruments, Cecil couldn't help sighing, "But, this day will not be far away, maybe next year, it doesn't require magic talent, anyone All you have to do is be patient.”

The crowd was silent for a moment, and a person rushed out.

"Dear Fa...Master, please accept me. I can be a servant, a servant or an apprentice. Please let me learn how to cure the Black Death!"

"Master, I can do it too!"

"Master, I can! I can!"

"Master, our family can do it!"

Cecil kept a business smile, and the bullet screen in his heart covered his face.

I know you're not driving but I think you are, shut up!

In any case, the population pull was a perfect success, and the survivors of Pippen expressed their willingness to leave for the Middle Kingdom immediately. Cecil thought it was because of his instigation, and David told him the truth later: "People who came out of the epidemic area No city is willing to take them in, they can't do business and they can't find jobs in other cities, they are willing to go to any city."

Well, well, no matter what, you can just go there, and you will be "unstoppable" when you arrive in Moon City. Desire will push you to continuously immerse yourself in industrial life and add bricks and tiles to it.

Cecil asked, "Are you going?"

"Me?" David seemed a little surprised, and said, "Do you not mind if I am from Tambunita? His Majesty the Central King."

Cecil wanted to maintain a calm attitude, but it was not easy, he opened his eyes slightly: "You know?"

"At the Magic Expo three years ago, I ate good food at your booth." David took a breath, "I really miss it, it was so delicious."

Cecil laughed: "Isn't Tanbunita also popular for general food now?"

"Yes, but it's always more expensive to ship anything to Tambunita, such as the tea bar. All the tea is priced in magic coins. I know that in the Middle Kingdom tea can be bought with metal coins. "As the epidemic has eased, David's mood has improved a lot, and his tone is relaxed, "The businessmen who sell tea in recent years have all become fat."

"You're taxing!"

"I would like to, but it is difficult to find out the specific profit. If you smoke too much, it will hurt the enthusiasm of the operators, and Pippen lacks major business items."

"Let me tell you a method, you can set up a customs entry system..."

Both of them are managers of the city, and they chatted endlessly until Langdon's sinister voice sounded from behind: "Your Majesty, are you hungry?"

Cecil suddenly turned around, just in time to smile at Langdon's mask-like businessman, and said frightenedly: "I, I, I'm not hungry."

"No, you must be hungry." Langdon's tone was extremely gentle, but his expression was like that of a serial murderer seeing a prey he wanted. "Come on, I've prepared a sandwich."

Cecil's brain twitched, and he asked reflexively, "Where did you get the sandwich? There is still general food in the city?"

Langdon's smile was even warmer: "Of course I created it with exquisite magic."

"You invented a sandwich-making magic?" Cecil asked in surprise.

Langdon laughed and said nothing.

"I'll take my leave first." Seeing that the situation was not right, David took a moment and was about to run away.

"Wait a minute!" Cecil remembered the business, "Let me ask something, do you know the experimental mage?"

"Experimental mage?" David blinked, "You don't need to ask me, your friend Luther is an experimental mage!"

Cecil:?

The status of experimental mages is a little lower than that of ordinary mages. However, because they have a lot of magic data, mages who want to create magic will still retain a little respect.Experimental mages usually have strong financial resources. Without financial support, it is impossible to complete experiments again and again. After all, experimental mages are more about exploring the role of various substances in this world in magic. Unlike number six, they are purely playing with magic energy. The development directions of the two are different.

No. [-] is more like the chief designer of a car, while the experimental mage specifically studies the steel, rubber and other things needed to make cars.

However, the status of experimental mages is an unavoidable problem. Therefore, only those who are desperate for magic will choose this path. Most mages still want to become legends. None.

Luther is such a "pure liking".

"What's the problem with becoming an experimental mage because you like it?" Luther said naturally, "This is an interesting profession."

Cecil held Luther's arm with a blushing face, and said, "Come on, brother, I will give you the best laboratory, and you can experiment with whatever you want, there is no limit at all."

Luther smiled: "You still haven't changed at all."

"Actually, something has changed." Langdon interrupted suddenly.

Due to the farce of the previous sandwich, Cecil dared not speak at the moment.

"You can go, but I have to do one thing first." Luther sighed, "If you are free, you can also come. This is a... big event."

Cecil and Langdon walked with Luther on the deserted and empty streets. This place belongs to the epidemic area, and no one wants to come here.They walked through a thicket of rose bushes and followed a cobbled path to a stone flat-roofed house.

Moon City and Tabunita are basically at the same latitude, and the houses are all pointed roofs. If you dare to make a flat roof, wait for the roof to collapse or flood during the rainy season.

When Cecil was wondering why this room had a flat roof, Luther took the initiative to explain: "The owner of the house likes a flat roof, because that's how it is in my hometown."

The three entered the house. Unlike the sunny environment outside, the house was shady and dark. There was no partition and there was only one large room. A bed was placed far away from the door. Since this room had no windows, it was dark there.

Someone stood up from the bed and greeted her. When he walked to the door, Cecil found that it was a young woman with deep tiredness and tears on her beautiful face.

"How is he?" Luther asked.

Cecil noticed that Luther used "he", but when he looked at the person on the bed, there was only a blur.

"There's been... no response." The woman lowered her head, and her tears fell directly to the ground, forming a small circular water stain. "Today is probably the limit."

Luther was silent for a moment before saying to Cecil: "Let me introduce, Your Majesty, this is my compatriot. After my civilization was extinct, she and her father guarded Felton, the last god of civilization in our country. Some time ago, her father died from the plague, and Felton also lost his last believer. Today, we will witness his passing."

Cecil followed Luther to the bed with some surprise. Through the light from the door, he could vaguely see an old man lying on the bed. His wrinkles were almost piled up, like some kind of soft pile of skin. He was motionless with his mouth open. It's doubtful that he's dead.

Several people stood there for a while, when Cecil was hesitating whether to ask questions, Luther took the initiative to speak: "There is a mine in our country, the ore will automatically emit light for lighting, forming the longest and longest civilization of my civilization. Strong faith, almost every...everyone knows that Fluorite is the backbone of our economy, and Felton is the God of Fluorite."

The woman's crying stopped, and she whispered with tears on her face, "But I haven't seen any fluorite."

"The fluorite mine was buried in the earthquake." Luther said, "Our country lost its economic pillar, and the earthquake almost destroyed the entire city. We tried to rebuild the city, but it was too difficult... really too difficult Now, if there is no fire, it is already exhausted to live, because the fluorescent mine was buried, Felton is also weaker, some people want to change places to start again, some people want to join other countries, some people want to build a new civilization, And I just want to protect our civilization."

The room was so quiet that Cecil didn't dare to speak to break the silence.

"Today is the end." Luther said calmly.

Cecil thought he could see some wonders, but this was the death of a god. Even the yak god of Ebo was "missing" and did not see it with his own eyes.He guessed that there would be some last words, or some kind of ceremony, after all, this is a god, but everything was beyond his expectation.

Felton, who was lying on the bed, suddenly lit up, like the faint green light of a night pearl. After that, he made a strange sound, like an old man's choking cough, and lifted his hand tremblingly. After rising a little, it suddenly fell, and all the breath disappeared. His body was like a burnt mosquito coil, and it turned into fragments and disappeared into the air with a slight breeze.

A god just died without a sound, without a single word.
