I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha
#168 - It's really a fairy road
The name 'Old John' is like 'I'm Old Li.' In the entire Amir Kingdom, there are at least several thousand people named Old John, if not tens of thousands.
No matter how you listen to it, it sounds like an ordinary person.
The Ghost Comb Army said, 'Oh, Old John is our Holy Son! He is the Crystal Mother and the King of Light's own son left in the world!'
The scholars whispered to Roland, 'This Crystal Mother and King of Light are country bumpkin terms. To translate it using the official common language of the nobles, it would be 'Crystal Saintess' and 'Father of Light.' These two gods don't even exist.'
Roland continued to listen to the Ghost Comb Army.
'Old John was the first holy spirit blessed by the Crystal Mother in the great fire! He doesn't even let us call him Old John anymore. He's called 'Saint. Little King of Light. Crystal King. John.' His son, Little John, also changed his name to 'Saint. Little Little King of Light. Little Crystal King. John.'
Old John and Little John are our Dual Saints!
And Old John is the Crystal King we just mentioned. He was originally in the north, and in a few days, he will go to the Royal City. Everyone says that he is a holy spirit descended from the sky, a Holy Son, a God!
So his son, his wife, his father, his mother, all his relatives are gods!'
This Old John's mother, and Old John himself, are both people with wicked intentions.
Old John is actually the illegitimate son of the Comb Lord!
Before he became a Crystal Person, he committed all kinds of evil deeds. Not only did he secretly have connections with mountain bandits, but he also always wanted to take advantage of the disaster to kill his own father and brothers and become the lord.
And the Comb Lord in his territory is actually called 'Baron Red Mountain.' Because he is greedy for money, he often oppresses the people, and his reputation has always been bad.
He created many strange private taxes, the most famous of which is a 'Comb Tax.' This old man is not an easy person to deal with either. The illegitimate son definitely couldn't outsmart him.
He burned the illegitimate son Old John alive!
As a result, this burning ruined everything. Old John became the first crystal person who was immune to swords and spears.
At that time, the onlookers all thought that a holy spirit had descended. Old John, who was already eloquent, gathered the first group of subordinates with a series of speeches, and then kidnapped his own father and began to rebel in the name of 'Comb Lord.'
Roland asked with a strange expression, 'Do you know that Crystal Mother?'
A ghost jumped out and shouted, 'I know, I know! I'm from the same village as the Crystal Mother! She used to be a servant of the Comb Lord, and while the Lord was drunk, she secretly sneaked into the Lord's bed. She stole the Lord's seed!'
There are no contraceptive measures in the secular world, and nobles with a little status would never mess around with servants.
Although some lords like to play with other people's wives and engage in some right of first night, there are still few such people.
Because once there is an illegitimate child, subsequent matters will be constantly troublesome.
However, that 'Crystal Mother' was very skillful, and in addition to having some beauty, she used all her efforts to become his mistress after sleeping with the Comb Lord once.
The ghosts continued to say, 'But this woman always wanted this and that, and the Lord slowly got tired of her and drove her out. Later, she married a blacksmith, and six months later, she gave birth to Old John. The old blacksmith was overjoyed when he learned that this was the Lord's illegitimate son and raised him as his own son.'
For being taken the right of first night by the Lord, or being happy to be a father is all a matter, and some people are very unwilling.
But there are also many common people who regard this as winning the lottery!
For many people, no matter whose blood the son flows, as long as there is a son, there will be offspring.
If the son also flows with the Lord's blood, many people are very willing.
This blacksmith and that 'Crystal Mother' also belong to the same kind. They both regarded this as a good thing.
They didn't have as much ambition as their son. After all, although illegitimate children becoming nobles also exist, it is really too rare. So they just tried to get some benefits from the Lord.
It is difficult for ordinary people to get some benefits from the Lord by relying on the Lord's illegitimate son. If they get anxious, the Lord may kill this family, along with his illegitimate son.
But that 'Crystal Mother' was very skillful. After being driven away and married, she once again established a relationship with the Comb Lord.
She made the Comb Lord infatuated, and not only did she and her husband jointly obtain many benefits from the Lord's lover, but she also sent her illegitimate son to the castle to work as a servant for the Lord's family.
In this era, the servants in the castle are not lowly jobs. They are civil servants!
The illegitimate son was also promising, and he actually became very successful later. He betrayed his own people and made many friends in the castle, and outside the castle, he also made a group of bandits.
Then there was a bunch of bad things later.
After listening to so much, Roland finally confirmed one thing—this 'Crystal King. Illegitimate Son Old John' and that 'Crystal Mother. Maid' are not rainbow immortals or crystal immortals descended from the world, they are just ordinary people!
The ghosts said, 'Later, we learned that Old John's mother, that is, the maid who married the blacksmith, was actually the Crystal Mother in the world!'
And when the 'Comb Lord' was sleeping with the Crystal Mother, he was actually possessed by the Heavenly Father! The God of Light used his body to give birth to the Holy Son with the Crystal Mother to save the world from suffering!'
This God of Light was fabricated by Old John. Otherwise, if there really was a God of Light in this world, he would be angered to death.
Several ghosts talked a lot, and after Roland listened, he was completely dumbfounded.
He originally thought that there was a god guiding behind this Comb Army. He thought that the leaders of the Comb Army were really the holy spirits of some Crystal Princess. But looking at this, it is completely a mob.
After asking about Old John's affairs again, Roland's face became strange.
He muttered, stroking his chin, 'That Old John is just a pure country bandit. It is impossible for him to become an immortal. Then, if I take this opportunity to go to the Gemstone Basin, can I take the opportunity to stay away from this Butterfly Immortal Road, achieve the Crystal Avenue, and ascend to become a Rainbow Immortal?'
The King and others and the ghosts: '...'
Shaking his head, Roland gave up this idea. It would be okay if he became a Crystal Immortal, there wouldn't be many missing functions.
But if he becomes a Rainbow Person... then how can he practice dual cultivation in the future? How can he be happy?
Wouldn't that be a eunuch!
Moreover, this road is probably also with great hidden dangers.
After carefully pondering it, Roland discovered that this 'Rainbow' is actually a naturally occurring mysterious anomaly.
It can be contained.
As long as he finds a way to contain the rainbow, the rainbow disease on his body can be largely resolved.
When he advances to a wizard and undergoes the Butterfly Tribulation, this rainbow might even block a few lightning strikes for him!
Roland felt that this containment matter was really worth pursuing.
This Royal City is indeed occupied by the Comb Army. But, this Comb Army is just a group of bandits.
They are not even comparable to the Yellow Turban Army.
So it is possible to sneak into the Royal City and pull out the rug from under their feet.
Judging from the information given by the Comb Army prisoners, there are some very powerful Crystal Wizards in the Comb Army.
Regarding the strength of these wizards, they brag about it, but it all sounds like 'the king uses a golden hoe to till the land.'
Regardless of what great powers there are in the Comb Army, they have not yet become mysteries. So they are largely some wild wizards who have suddenly raised their realm.
Although their realm is high, they do not have any basic knowledge of magic.
To say that fighting with them, Roland does not have the courage. Or rather, before he has figured out their true realm, Roland does not dare to provoke them.
But, when the wizards of the academy come, Roland will have a lot of courage.
Roland locked these ghosts in the dungeon and handed them over to everyone for questioning. King Alfonso and the nobles once again invited Roland to attend the banquet.
Roland glared at this group of idiots and said, 'Eat, eat, eat, all you know is to eat! Now you can't light the lights at night, otherwise, if you see the rainbow, you will turn into a crystal person!'
Many nobles: '...'
Turn into a crystal person when you see a rainbow?
Look at what he is saying! But the Black Abyss Wizards are all crazy. You can't argue with them, just do what they say.
Roland drove away the guys watching the excitement around him and went out of the castle with King Alfonso to check the battlefield.
The relationship between the two of them is getting better and better now. Alfonso even called Roland his brother in front of the nobles and ministers.
Amber ran over from behind, following Roland like a tagalong. Behind her were also a few knights.
On the way, Roland quietly sized up Amber and King Alfonso.
This King Alfonso is not tall, 1.7 meters.
This height is actually not short, but this king is the only high-level knight in the kingdom.
He has had very good nutrition since he was a child, and he also eats various magic medicines and monster meat. Logically speaking, it is normal to grow to 1.8 meters or 1.9 meters.
However, although he is not tall, he is very handsome.
The latest novels are available on Liu Jiu Shu Ba!
Roland saw some oil paintings of the previous queen in the corridor of the manor castle. It was a petite and beautiful woman.
It seems that she takes after her mother.
Little Amber's height is a small dot, a little loli.
She looks very similar to the previous queen of the Amir Kingdom and Alfonso.
Roland secretly said in his heart: 'I'll be damned! I accidentally discovered a secret... Could it really be half-siblings? Ah no, Alfonso should be Amber's uncle, it's the relationship between uncle and niece!'
Amber may really be King Alfonso's niece.
A proper little princess.
Roland thought to himself, 'Grandpa Augus, you're really something, putting a green hat on the Crab Eye Elephant Tower's Master!'
Soon, Roland and the others arrived outside the castle, the surroundings were a scene of utter devastation.
Roland said to Amber, "What's a kid doing here joining in the fun? Go back inside and stay put."
Amber retorted, sticking out her neck, "Teacher, I'm not here for fun, I'm here to supervise the ravens' handling of the corpses."
Roland suddenly understood, immediately recalling their performance this month for the sake of Mother Hela.
He was planning to go to the graveyard later, and having two people go would just be a waste of manpower.
So he said, "Go to the tower and research those prisoners, follow up on the progress. I'll go take a look at the graveyard later."
Amber pouted and walked away, feeling unhappy that her teacher always treated her like a child.
Alfonso could tell that Roland didn't value this student, he could see that Roland didn't acknowledge this student, but he was very protective of this Miss Amber, even if he didn't acknowledge her as a student, he would probably arrange a very good mentor for her.
Alfonso secretly noted this matter in his heart.
The battle was over, and the soldiers were cleaning up the battlefield, Roland also saw some ravens.
When the King fled, he brought many refugees, including those wild mages that the Scholarly Faction had specifically requested to be captured.
These ravens had just been released by Amber, and were now fulfilling their duties as court mages.
They directed everyone to carry the wounded or prisoners into the castle for treatment, and to transport the corpses to the distant graveyard, handling the dead according to the new manual that Roland had revised.
Roland chatted with King Alfonso for a while, asked for directions to the graveyard, and then flew off alone.
After inspecting the work there, he pulled out a few souls of the comb soldiers, asked them some questions, and then performed a requiem for all the dead.
Afterward, Roland went to the court mages' tower, where everyone was experimenting on the comb soldiers.
Here, Roland saw a large vinegar vat, in which a shivering comb soldier prisoner was soaking.
Amber, with a few ravens, was excitedly taking notes on the side, while two court mages were sitting aside, tearing at their hair in existential doubt.
Avis was also there, holding Grandpa Augus's notes in his hand, his eyes staring at the comb soldier in the vinegar vat, deep in thought.
Roland walked over and asked, "Have you discovered anything?"
Avis was startled by Roland's words, and he quickly made a shushing gesture to Roland.
Then, the Great Mage Avis looked around suspiciously, and quietly leaned in close to Roland's ear and said, "Sir, I've discovered a shocking secret: rainbows don't like sour things, hee hee!"
After saying that, Avis grabbed his hair and giggled, muttering many contradictory, nonsensical things.
Roland's expression became very unpleasant.
He had finally found someone to take his place on the battlefield, and it hadn't even been two hours before Amber had driven him crazy!
Swish, swish, swish, several spells that induced unconsciousness landed on Avis and those court mages, and they all fell unconscious, Roland took out some soothing potions and fed them to them.
He had the ravens who were still doing research take these poor fellows away for treatment, and Roland came to the vinegar vat and examined the comb soldier prisoner.
Roland was surprised to find that the crystals on this person's body were slowly disappearing.
The scholars of the Raven Society told Roland, "Sir, according to some analysis, if the pathogen of Rainbow Disease is eradicated, then even if someone has turned into a crystal person, they can recover!"
This was very good news.
In this tower, there was another large vinegar vat, which had just pickled another dead crystal comb soldier, he had not been resurrected, and the body had already been disposed of.
Amber was working with everyone to study how to make good use of this vat of vinegar waste, this was vinegar, after all, it was expensive, the vinegar in the castle was limited, so it had to be reused.
While they were studying, they saw their little Teacher Roland take off all his clothes with a swish, swish, swish, wearing only a pair of shorts, and jump into the vinegar vat.
Amber's little face turned red, her teacher was really crude sometimes, there were girls here, and he didn't pay attention to etiquette.
After soaking, Roland found that the rainbow in his body had indeed decreased somewhat, but a large area of crystals had appeared in his body!
"What is the logic behind this?" Roland grabbed his hair, feeling terrible all over.
In the following days, many scholars conducted in-depth research and analysis on Roland's situation, and compared it with experiments on many comb soldier prisoners.
Everyone found that other people also had a small amount of rainbow in their bodies, but only those with severe infections or crystal people had this thing in their bodies.
According to observations, the total amount of rainbow in everyone in Green Lake Manor combined was not as much as Roland's.
When he learned of this situation, Roland stared blankly at the sky outside the window and said, "Could it be that I am the Rainbow Immortal?"
