Chapter 2 Strange Knowledge
The labor convoy headed east along the seawall and headed towards Hyde Port. The Vranian Sea on the right side of the carriage slapped the waves, splashing the Shanghai embankment from time to time, leaving a lot of water stains.
The wheels ran over stones, waded through puddles, and drove for more than a day... The sunset gradually sank into the sea, reflecting a red glow, and the tide slowly receded.
Eber turned his head and looked at the afterglow of the sunset behind him, without saying a word, his strange eyes were filled with warm shimmering light, water waves, and magnificence against the dusk.
"The whole team is on the left, settle down the carriage and horses, and prepare to camp." The command of the team leader interrupted Eber's tourism atmosphere and ended the passengers' leisure.
Gallon, Grey and others, and other workers in the carriage all jumped out of the carriage and started to do work skillfully, camping, picking firewood, making fire, and cooking... Gallon was good at doing work and worked hard; Grey didn't work hard, but he was very clever and never discovered.
Eber, who was still in the carriage, looked down at his bound hands, blinked, and felt at a loss for a moment, then turned his head and looked at the other bound person who was originally separated from him.
Without waiting for Eber to speak, the bound person covered in anger glanced at Eber coldly, jumped off the carriage and stood at the rear of the carriage, motionless.
"Wow, it's so unique." Eber complained in his heart, but his movements were not slow, and he immediately followed him and jumped out of the carriage.
Instead of leaning against the "harsh man", Eber stood at the front of the carriage and was feeding the horse and asking:
"Uncle, I'm tied up with my hands, what kind of work can I do?"
"Well, you're really hard to deal with. He is pushing the guard sergeant, and someone will come to deal with him soon. You, wait for the lieutenant to come. No one dares to touch you except the lieutenant." The coachman stopped the brush in his hand, raised his head slightly and thought for a while before speaking these words.
The coachman shook his head again and buried himself in the work of brushing the horse's back, as if this work could make him feel at ease.
Eber also guessed who the lieutenant was mentioned by the coachman. When he thought of the female officer who called him "Single-eyed Cat", Eber felt a headache.
"Hiss, I'm in trouble, what should I do?" Eber looked up at the dim sky, his fingers and toes twitching, as if this could help the brain think.
Not long after, three or five soldiers crossed Eber and walked towards the "harsh man" standing at the rear of the carriage. They pushed the "harsh man" away from the camp and took him into the woods.
Seeing the bad attitude of "harsh man" was in trouble, Eber's heart arose a little gloating, but in two or three seconds the gloating turned into a sadness of the rabbit and the fox, and his situation was not much better.
If someone is worried that something will happen, then it is very likely to happen - Eber was just sad about the death of a rabbit, and the female lieutenant arrived.
Wearing a military aristocratic costume with a high combination of decorativeness and practicality, the female officer with gray hair tied braids with the rank of lieutenant stood in front of Eber and whispered slowly:
"Cat with strange eyes, raise your head, aren't you very bold? Pretend to die? I didn't use a horse whip to slap you, but used a soft whip. It's time to recover now."
After the female lieutenant finished speaking, she raised her hands and pulled the soft whip that was rolled into a ring in her hands.
Bang!
He stretched his head and shrank his head, Elber took a deep breath and raised his head hard and looked straight into the lieutenant's eyes.
The female lieutenant once again clearly saw Eber's appearance, but this was the first time Eber saw the female lieutenant's appearance.
The first thing that caught Eber's eyes was the female lieutenant's expression, confidence, arrogant, stubborn, and ambitious... Then there were her high crescent eyebrows, gray-brown pupils, curved eyelashes, straight nose bridge, and small cherry lips...
The age of facial features is roughly between 20 and 25 years old, and she is taller than Eber. The thick sole of the riding boots is more than 1.8 meters tall, which is really terrible.
The second thing is eye-catching is the long gray hair tied to the back of the head, the hair on the left forehead is tied to the rubber band, the hair on the right forehead is mostly curved and curled bangs to the right, and the small half of the hair is combed behind the ears, and the heroic posture is dotted with playfulness, maturity and charm...
"Ha, have you seen enough?" A gentle and dangerous whisper pulled Eber back to reality.
In an instant, Eber's forehead was sweating profusely, and a wave of his heart caused a sudden change, thinking quickly about a way to break the situation.
Eber launched a carpet-style search in his barren mind. Ji Xi found a life-saving straw, language, words, knowledge that did not know whether it existed or not... but he dug three feet into the ground, but he found nothing.
Just as Eber was almost desperate, a book that was half a human tall slowly emerged, and it appeared in Eber's mind and was placed on an illusory stone platform.
"Book? No more!" Eber instinctively grabbed the life-saving thing beside him, and regardless of what it was, he hurriedly "run" to the huge book that was transformed from virtual.
The cover of the book is quaint and old, and the overall color is dark brown, without any signatures or marks. The cover has various frenzied twists and indescribable shapes, but it also contains regular patterns. There is a hint of redness in its groove. I don’t know if it is dye or blood stains. Just a glance makes people dizzy, lose their reason, and almost crazy.
"Hiss-ah! Damn!" Eber's mind was immersed in the lines and suddenly hugged his head in pain, howling, and was on the verge of collapse.
Perhaps it was due to the stubbornness of the boy; perhaps it was out of survival instinct; perhaps it was the desire for unknowns. Although Eber was in distress, his body trembled and shook, he was still hunched over. He ended his stomach surging and brain stinging, and reached his hand towards the cover of the giant book.
Wow!
Bang!
The cover of the book, along with a few pages of yellowed paper, turned to the left, revealing the true appearance inside - the Wordless Heavenly Book.
There are no shocking truths; there are no clear and clear insights; there are no complex and lengthy academic mysteries, only clean blank paper.
"How could this happen? It shouldn't be like this..." Eber, who was extremely disappointed, murmured in disbelief. Just as he was about to vent his anger, the wordless heavenly book had an abnormality.
——Black spots floated on the surface of the paper, swimming around like tadpoles, and gathering more and more.
The trajectory left by the swimming of black spots forms part of a mysterious "text", constantly moving, sparse, dense and disorderly spots; golden proportion curves composed of countless small symbols, interlocking branches; endless, extremely irregular but implicitly regular fractal geometric models...
Eber's mind was completely attracted by this mysterious text. He did not notice that his right eye was shining with a faint purple light, and his face was also full of fanaticism and obsession. He was not like a normal human, and he did not realize that the handwriting of this text was exactly the same as his own...
Eber, who had not looked in the mirror or reminded by others, would never be able to discover the abnormality of his eyes, nor could he know that the words in the book only emerged after the purple light in his right eye lit up;
Eber, who has no memory and has not seen his handwriting, cannot recognize his handwriting. At most, he will only feel a little familiar, at least now;
More importantly, Eber did not find that the black spots on the book were slowly precipitating and condensed into extremely fine black dewdrops...
While living a life is waiting like a year, the "words" in the book finally form a proverb.
Eber held his breath and was immersed in the mysterious artistic conception depicted by this mysterious text, and at the same time understood the meaning of this text:
Praise women is omnipotent.
"Ha-ah?" Eber, who came to his senses, tilted his neck, glared, and shrank, "I don't even know what is at the end of the universe, how could I know how to praise a woman?"
…………
Tick, tick, tick.
