Future Crystal Crown

The convoy drove there for a long time. Along the way, it can be seen that some courtyards are still inhabited, while others have shown signs of dilapidation.

The pair of cars finally came to the top of the mountain. This is the area where the current patriarch's family is often active. The building complex is very new and denser.

The centaur patriarch has led a team to greet him at the door.

"Welcome, this is the garden built by my grandfather's grandfather. Our family has lived here for hundreds of years." The old man Renma proudly pointed to the magnificent cornices and brackets behind him and said to the guests.

Everyone looked at his cane, but they didn't pay much attention to it, but they saw four big golden characters engraved on the stone beside the gate: Convince people with virtue.

Several people burst out laughing out loud.

"It's really lacking and making up for it." Someone said in a low voice.

"This is my family's group motto. It is because our ancestors left such wise ancient mottos. Our family has been firmly leading the Sagittarius tribe and has been loved by the majority of space residents." The patriarch of the Sagittarius boasted that he did not hesitate stingy.

"It seems that our understanding and use of words are slightly different." Rogge said humorously.

Everyone walked into the yard, which was very beautiful.There are tall trees and green shades, streams and fountains, and musicians singing and dancing.The centaurs don't use electric lights, and clusters of candlesticks, large and small, are placed everywhere in their courtyards.

The beating flames are agile and ethereal, creating a dreamlike feeling.

A simple long wooden table under the tree has been set.It was covered with a red checked tablecloth.There are silver candlesticks on the tablecloth. The flames on the candlesticks are colorful, and the one-foot-long flames are brighter than neon.

"Everyone, please take a seat." Someone came over and warmly took the seats.

Everyone took their seats.

Different from the last meal, this time the seats are staggered.This is not only convenient for the host to take care of the guests, but also convenient for people on both sides to talk to each other.What is even more gratifying is that there are not only all kinds of snails for dinner, but also vegetables, pancakes and meat rolls that humans can use.

Qiu raised his eyes to see the richness on the distant horizon. The night on the top of the mountain came later than other places. When the surroundings had already turned black inch by inch, the rays of light in the sky were still strong. They changed colors little by little, subtle, mysterious, and elusive.

Suddenly, I remembered the waves of sunset glow I saw on Prism Star.

Qijun squeezed to Qiu's side again, and graciously put a meat roll on the plate in front of Qiu. "Little angel, you must try this."

"Thank you." Qiu picked up the meat roll.

"It's made of fresh fish, and those fish are very smart. If you eat their meat, you will become as smart as them." Qijun explained to Qiu complacently.

"Oh? What kind of fish is that?" Qiu picked up the knife and fork curiously.

"Dolphin." Qi Jun said.

Qiu hurriedly put the meatloaf back on the plate.

"Why don't you eat?" Qijun was very surprised.

"Dolphins are man's best friend, we can't eat them," Qiu whispered.

"Can't you eat it if you are a friend?" Qijun asked curiously.

"..." Qiu looked at Qijun.I think you guys are too big-hearted, you even eat your friends.Will you eat me when you are hungry?

"I won't eat you, we are good friends. Little angels and little monsters will always be good friends." Qijun confessed to Qiu cutely.This made Qiu a little dumbfounded.

"Everyone, let's raise our glasses." The sharp-eared senator proposed loudly. "Today I saw an exciting scene here. People, horses and humans are fighting side by side. Everyone is working hard to protect the peace and prosperity here. This is exactly the goal we have been striving for for many years. All kinds of creatures It's like a family that loves each other and creates a beautiful life together. You make me proud, and I offer my sincerest respect to all of you as your friends."

"Salute." Everyone raised their glasses together.

Qiu also raised his cup and took a big sip. It felt like a fire dragon was burning all the way from his mouth to the depths of his abdomen.

Oh my god, is this wine? Isn't this what the octopus king felt before he died today?Qiu clutched his heart and panted, feeling like his stomach was about to explode.

"Aren't you used to the taste?" Someone tapped his leg under the chair. "Give it to me, give it to me."

"Come on, everyone, let us raise our glasses together, for the gods to hear our call, for the preservation of our homeland, and the centaurs have come from disaster after disaster, we are the grace of God..." This time it was the centaurs The patriarch's invitation.

Everyone raised their cups and Qiu quickly sent the cups under the chairs.

The little pony tree sticks out an air root into the glass, and sucks up the wine until there is not a drop left.

When everyone had finished drinking and put down their glasses, they found that other people's glasses were still half full, while Qiu's was already empty.

"Yo, little angel, do you have such a good drinker?" Qijun yelled in surprise.

Everyone looked at Qiu.

"Hehe, yes. I drink more today." Qiu answered boldly.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was very lively.Everyone took turns toasting.

After a few glasses of wine, Qiu realized that there was something wrong with the little tree.The guy under the chair twisted and twisted, and the branch hugged Qiu's calf and pinched, touched, scratched and rubbed.

"Little tree, little tree." Qiu called it a few times, but it seemed unable to hear it.

Qiu thought to himself, it's over, I'm going to make a fool of myself.

"I'm sorry, I'm going out for a while." Qiu greeted the people nearby, and led the little pony tree to leave the seat.

"Little angel, I'll go with you." Qijun followed immediately.

Apocalypse is not a very big planet, but it is hard and dense.Although its two satellites are very large, they still have to revolve around Apocalypse.

Therefore, whenever night comes, two huge bright moons will rise in the night sky of Apocalypse, and they will reflect each other in the night sky, performing a scene of chasing each other and reuniting.

On a bright and clear night, it is also interesting to see the changing moonlight here.

"The weather today is not bad," Qiu said.

"Yes, my sister said that the moonlight of Apocalypse is the most affectionate moonlight in the world. Do you think they are kissing each other?" Qijun pointed to the moon.

Qiu looked up, and the shadows on the moon really looked like a man and a horse.

"Do you want to see my sister?" Qi Jun asked suddenly.

"Huh?" Qiu turned to look at Qi Jun.Isn't your sister dead?

"My sister's room has all the answers you want to know." Qi Jun said mysteriously. "The opportunity is rare, I'll take you to see it now, don't tell others."

Qiu pondered for a moment. "Can you come back before the banquet ends?"

"Yes." Qi Jun pointed in a direction.

Qiu looked at the little tree. "Then go."

So one person, one horse, and one tree slipped out quietly, walked through the labyrinth-like alleyways, turned out of the courtyard on the top of the mountain, and followed a narrow path all the way down.

The hillside was dark, and Qiu stumbled as he walked. Fortunately, Qijun was familiar with the road and reminded them to pay attention to their feet from time to time.

Soon, they came to a small courtyard.

"Here, it's here. You wait, I'll light the candlestick for you." Qi Jun asked Qiu to stand at the door, and he went to the small table by the wall to get out candles and flints.

Qiu quietly looked back, and saw that the courtyard full of candles looked like a suspended building in mid-air.And I was in a very far position obliquely below it.

It is very quiet here, with the chirping of grass insects under the window one after another.

Qiu looked at the ancient orange light from the candle in Qijun's hand.That is the color of candlelight that human beings have inherited since ancient times.

"My sister said that this kind of candlelight is the most natural and sacred light, which can bring her closer to the gods. Come on, I will take you in."

Two people walked into the hall.

This is a very strange building.

At first glance, the inside seems to be divided into upper and lower floors, and each floor is divided into several rooms, but if you look closely, you will find that none of the rooms here are rooms in the usual sense.

There are no complete four walls to be seen here, nor complete squares or rectangles.Each of its rooms seems to have been smashed by Tetris. Various convex and concave structures are embedded in each other, and there is no clear outline between the walls and the ground.

The whole feeling is a bunch of spaces that are embedded in each other and assembled together.It is not so much a house as a man-made cave in some evolutionary process.

Living here, if you don't turn on the lights when you get up in the middle of the night, you will definitely kill someone.

"Your sister likes this look?" Qiu asked Qijun.

"My sister said that this is the truth of the universe. All existence, whether it is plants, animals, people, or space-time, must endure the existence of other existences. They will invade your space and compete for your territory. But this is the truth, Nothing can exist independently without external influence, and nothing is perfect." Qijun said seriously.

"Oh." Qiu simply gave a single tone.I thought to myself that it was a philosophical expression. If 33 could comment here, let’s forget about my IQ.

"You and I are both fine products of natural evolution. Only people like us can understand things that are truly in line with the laws of nature. You may not be used to this house for the first time, but I guarantee that you will like it in the future." Qijun is very sure say.

"Oh." Yau could only utter a single sound.

Upon closer inspection, sister Qijun's room is very simple and simple, and indeed has a different kind of beauty.The decorations are all carved with simple patterns on thick logs, coupled with silver classical candlesticks and delicate and smooth porcelain, the beauty close to nature makes people feel friendly.

"My sister has a very in-depth study of space theory. She said that the space we live in now is not a completely independent space. There are many interspersed and superimposed components between us and other spaces. Just like this room, you think this room should be It all belongs to you, but there is really a part that does not belong to you, it belongs to other spaces. And the place that you think is not your space is actually your space.” Qi Jun.

Qiu thought of the Sagittarius Forest, the magical valley and the mysterious lake.
