Magic Tower Starry Sky
Chapter 399: elves
A variegated cat sitting on a low wall, licking the fleshy **** on its paws, watching a group of people go away. The figure gradually faded, and finally disappeared without a trace.
And a group of people who entered the royal capital of Pyate Jaime looked around, looking at this country whose culture style was completely different from that of human beings.
There are no high-walled mansions, and most people's houses are just low walls or fences. The windows are open, and you can see part of the house at a glance.
Every house in the city has been carefully taken care of, and there is no mess in sight, but each has its own characteristics. Some let the vines climb all over the wall, and some paint several colors on the wall, simply showing the feeling of the sky, white clouds, and green land. Some elves who don't know what they are thinking are even worse, there is no wall at all, and the whole house is exposed to everyone.
Can't see any shops doing deals. Is it because I haven't passed the relevant places, or for other reasons, I can't tell for the time being. But from the places they passed, it can be known that the atmosphere of the elf city is indeed different from that of the human city.
However, when the leading female elf turned into a row of relatively independent houses, she shouted in Elvish language: 'I'm back. ’ A certain person’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Compared with the ones outside, this house is not more ornate, and there is nothing special about it. That is to say, as a low wall separating the houses, only the outermost circle is surrounded here, and many houses are enclosed in this range. Simply put, it looked nothing like what the chick claimed to be, one of the six ruling families of the kingdom.
A deep male voice came from inside, saying: 'Welcome back. '
The source of this voice was the housekeeper of their family, or according to the girl, it was her father who was the prime minister of the kingdom. Stay at home in broad daylight? This is specially for yourself? Or lost ground so stay at home? Or... just half a day's work in this country? What a happy country this is!
When someone came out of the house, it was too late, and then soon, someone's arm was embraced by the female elf again, posing a rather intimate gesture. Riena completely ignored the stunned expressions of the others, but smiled sweetly, and said in common language: "Father, I'm back."
The originally kind and kind old man glared instantly, and whispered like a lion: "I will never allow it!"
I lost it! What is this development of family ethics dog blood eight o'clock file?
"Hahahaha, it turns out that all of this is a misunderstanding." When hearing this hearty laughter, several hours have passed since the beginning of everything. Even in the process of explaining, someone once had the illusion of dying on the spot.
During this period, the two apprentices were captured by each other's aura, completely retreating, hiding aside and shivering like quails. The four dwarves were even more unbearable, so they simply hid outside the entrance wall, with two people on one side, one up and one down, poking out half of their faces to see what was going on inside.
As the instigator, the female elf obediently lowered her head, staring at her toes without saying a word. This is the appearance of intending to play dead to the end. As for the Lich. "Hehe." These two voices were heard from the beginning to the end. And someone alone resisted the various bombings of that strict father. To be honest, someone would rather take a knife directly, and you slash, and I slash each other, rather than explain this kind of thing.
After finally clearing up the misunderstanding, this old elf who was going to eat his daughter's boyfriend alive finally regained his deceptively kind expression. I am really worried about his son-in-law in the future. If he meets such an old man, his life is in danger.
And he didn't spoil his daughter blindly, but pulled Liena, who had been pretending to be good, to his side, and apologized with his head pressed: "My little girl's prank caused trouble to the guests, please accept my apology." Letting go of the female elf's head, the prime minister of the kingdom laughed and said, "I just said that my daughter's taste is not that bad. Fortunately, all this is a misunderstanding."
I will lose again! This is the plan to fail the second round!
A certain person probed feebly, and said in a low voice, "Master Titov, there's no need to speak so harshly."
"You criticize my daughter from the beginning to the end, saying that you yourself will never take a fancy to her. Her conditions are really poor. Being despised by you like this, which father can bear it?"
Brother, you make me difficult like this. Whether I can't like your daughter, or must like your daughter, I'm a little bit insane.
He no longer has the strength to fight the old man for the second round, and someone already wants to use the flashing technique to leave. At this time, the two girls hiding in the corner had their stomachs rumbling in disappointment, interrupting the weird and inexplicable atmosphere. Luka Titov, the prime minister of the kingdom, smiled heartily: "I'm sorry, it was my mistake. The guests came from afar, but we are so rude and poor in hospitality. Please come with me."
God help, these two girls! Praise them well after you leave. In short, it is a great credit for this majestic old elf to give up continuing to hunt and kill others. And the stomachs of the two girls didn't sound, and they didn't notice that they were hungry. Looking at the sky outside the window, it was getting dark, it was almost night. I still remember that it was early in the morning when I entered the city.
A father controlled by a daughter is definitely the most difficult creature in the world to deal with, in various senses.
What kind of scene will the elves' dinner party be like? To be honest, before today, someone had done a lot of imagination. It's like a European and American style film and television series, sitting on both sides of an exaggerated long table, on which there are piles of roast chicken, roast sheep, and cans of wine, a pair ready to make people vomit. .
But when you actually see it, you will realize that reality and imagination are two different things, especially for a race that you are not familiar with.
There is nothing to say about the cooking of the elves. And unlike their close relatives, the wood elves almost always eat raw food, and the dinner hosted by the prime minister of the Piejaime Kingdom, even a certain traveler from the big food empire, has nothing to criticize.
What really made someone dumbfounded was what he observed about the 'system' of this elf kingdom.
The place where Luka Titov, the prime minister of the kingdom, entertained everyone was not at his home. In fact, according to someone's observation, the place where they lived was not big enough to hold a banquet, or even to receive guests, so the place they came to was a guest house similar to a restaurant.
Originally thought that it was because the elves looked down on humans, so they deliberately used such means to ridicule Lin Zhuo and the others with all kinds of explicit hints. But in the guest house, who greeted Luka Titov? Either this minister or the elder. It also looks like they are all sprites with heads and faces, not extras who come to fill the scene.
Of course, a sumptuous dinner cannot be complete without small talk. Because the two parties met for the first time, of course they were talking about the topics around them and deepening their understanding of each other. Lin then inquired about the part he couldn't understand, the atmosphere of the entire Pyat Jaime Kingdom.
There are no similar shops on the road because there are really no shops in the elves' kingdom. Except for trading goods with other races, there is no currency transaction between elves.
Although the places where the elves live have very personal characteristics, the foundation and layout are actually similar. After asking, I realized that the places where they live are actually assigned. Except for those who belong to the royal family in the royal palace, those with larger families and more people will have more houses surrounded by walls in the places where they are allocated to live.
In addition to the royal family, the six ruling families are actually six groups of people who specialize in helping other elves solve their troubles, commonly known as wiping their buttocks. Other than that, whoever likes it and who is willing to do it will be responsible for it. Includes making bread, cooking food, tailoring, blacksmithing, and more.
Maybe there are some low and dirty jobs in the eyes of human beings, but they have to be done. In human society, it is the underprivileged who are forced to deal with it. Like cleaning up trash, feces, etc. But this is a magical world. As long as you are willing to spend money and put your mind to it, many things can be simplified.
As for the military system, the Kingdom of Paijaime is a military system for all the people. Of course, everyone will be assigned different positions according to their strengths, instead of just stuffing everyone into the front line as a small soldier. But in normal times, they will only maintain a minimum standing force, responsible for patrolling the border and guarding the palace.
Although individuals were allowed to own private property, most supplies, including food, were rationed communally. If any elves want to eat, they can come to various restaurants or guest houses in the capital, and they will be full at any time. The hostel where Lin and his group enjoyed the dinner was also part of the distribution and cooking process, the difference being that it would also receive guests from other places. Other places may not accept it, it depends on the elf who was in charge at the time.
Talking here, someone feels that this kind of utopia seems to have been heard before. Self-discipline of elves
, and the emphasis on spiritual life over material life makes them willing to become parts of a huge machine, driving the machine to run smoothly and continuously.
But don't think that the pride in the mouths of the elves is pride in their more advanced system. It's not the same thing at all. According to someone's words from the elves at the dinner table, and if you stand in their position and think about it, it's easy to understand their helplessness in running a country like this.
In the situation where countless human kingdoms look around and covet, cowardice and division will only have one result: national subjugation and genocide~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There will be some rules in the war of the same race, which can redeem lives and not kill them all. But wars between different races have always ended with one party being wiped out.
Choose the life of a slave, live in humility, and perhaps prolong life. But that choice only saved his own life, but ruined the future of the entire race.
Not to mention that the elves are very vulnerable compared to the human race. The average lifespan of 600 years is calculated from the time of being born, and it is not considered an adult until the age of 90, that is, it has the ability to reproduce. During a lifetime, an elf couple will have three or four children. With the support of many magic and druid spells, unless they have congenital defects, the survival rate is very high.
But from the birth of an elf to the time when he can give birth to the next generation, three generations of human beings have been born. If we work harder, we will have no problem giving birth to the fourth generation. Maybe the elves can fight humans one by one, and they can fight ten; when it comes to fighting, there is no problem in winning battle after battle. But when it comes to consumption and quantity, the elves are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of overall strategy.
In such a predicament, it seems not difficult to understand such a path. Because only in this way, the entire ethnic group can be squeezed into a fist, and there is a way to resist foreign invasion. In order to maintain the vitality of the entire group and accommodate some children who are not obedient to the distribution, young elves often leave the kingdom and travel around the world.
Therefore, after seeing the situation of the Kingdom of Paijaime clearly, we can understand what kind of predicament the elves are in, and then understand the reason why their actions are so drastic.
