Chapter 29 Eat, sleep and beat Doudou

What is "What time does it start?", why do you need to ask such a simple question?

It was simple and of course there was no need to ask, but she asked anyway, which meant it was not simple or she didn't understand.

Duan Xu was also asked, "This is common sense. You are still a princess and you don't understand this."

A princess is born, but if you don’t understand, she is also a princess. As the chief priest, don’t you understand time?

"What time does the party start?"

"The banquet starts when the banquet starts."

The answer was excellent, the expression was very serious, and it was definitely not an argument.

Duan Xu almost understood. Since arriving here, he has not seen the time anywhere, nor has he seen a clock.

For us, time determines events, but for them, events determine time, so she would ask this?

Thinking back on how I felt this day, I couldn't see the sun, time was not important, what was important was what to do now.

Presumably their history is recorded like this: the little prince was born during the meeting time, and the old king passed away during the sleeping time.

They didn't divide the day into 24 hours, not because they didn't want to, but because no one knew where the day began. There was no reliable reference here.

You can imagine that they lived like this. After eating, they drew a bucket of water, finished dripping it, and had another meal. Then they drew another bucket of water, drained it, went to sleep, woke up, ate, and then continued.

It’s really scary to think about it. It turns out that “eating, sleeping and playing beans” mentioned in the history books is actually a way of life that really exists on this blue planet.

Now that I think about those knots I saw before, it’s not surprising. Using them to record history is simple and straightforward.

After thinking about this, Duan Xu looked at the noble princess opposite and thought to himself, poor baby, your life is so boring.

But he said: "Okay, it's time for the banquet."

Of course, I still don’t know when or where to attend the banquet.

It's not a big deal. Since you invited me, it's not my responsibility if you can't find me when you arrive.

In this case, it doesn't hurt to walk around for a while.

Seeing that Duan Xu had no more doubts, Napar smiled slightly, reappeared his charming eyeliner, and then turned around and left.

Only then did Duan Xu notice that there was no makeup line on her face, revealing fair skin that looked like water would flow out of her face with just a light touch.

The moment she turned to leave, Duan Xu had a terrible suspicion in his mind.

He tried not to think about it, but when he saw her and the attendant leaving, he had to think that they might not be human because they had no shadow.

Thinking of this, all the hairs on his body stood up, and he reacted immediately.

Oh, a loud shout.

When Napar heard the cry, he stopped and looked back at Duan Xu with concern.

"I accidentally broke my hand." Duan Xu said shyly.

He deliberately bit off his ring finger. When I was a child, I heard my mother tell a story about a scholar who stayed in a lonely grave at night, and a woman came in the middle of the night. The scholar bit off his ring finger and threw blood on the woman. The woman showed her original shape and ran away.

Whenever Duan Xu feels that he has encountered a ghost, he thinks of this story. Today I just want to try it, firstly to see if he is dreaming, and secondly to know if this method works.

Napar came over and Duan Xu raised his bleeding finger. She stretched out her hand, pinched Duan Xu's bleeding finger and looked at it.

Her hands were so white that you could see the blood vessels under her skin.

He twitched deliberately, and blood dripped onto her warm hand.

She frowned and ordered the attendant with a wry smile, and one of the attendants left.

She put down her hand.

He felt the temperature of her fingertips and saw blood dripping on her hand. Everything was normal.

What went wrong?

After a while, the attendant came back and applied a small piece of soft stuff, a dried plant leaf, to the wound.

I felt cool and the bleeding stopped.

"Is there anything else?" Napar asked patiently.

"Well, no more, thank you"

After saying that, they left quickly.

Duan Xu looked down and saw that he had no shadow. How could there be no shadow?

Is this really the legendary underworld?

He was so frightened that he ran out of the room. At one end of the corridor, it was very bright and a little dazzling. When he turned around, he saw his own shadow, which stretched long to the end of the corridor.

He returned to the house again, but there was still no shadow.

He went through the house carefully, checking it from top to bottom.

The walls gave off a weak light, very weak, and the four walls and the roof were all glowing.

There is light from every angle, just like the shadowless lamp in the operating room, so there is no shadow.

Duan Xu suddenly realized it and laughed at himself for being suspicious.

In fact, there is no need for him to blame himself. In such a depressing and ghostly environment, his spirit is highly tense, and it is inevitable that he will suffer the consequences.

Now that I need to divert my attention urgently, it would be great if I had a friend.

He looked at the cultural relics in the room again. Exquisite gold ornaments, golden figures, unique shapes, everyone wanted to have them.

Holding the gold in your hand, it exudes a charming light. The light of happiness and confidence, the light of wealth and honor.

Now that the whole house's gold belongs to him, Duan Xu feels that I am the master of the world.

Even if it's not his. To take a step back, how many people in the world can live with so much gold in the same room?

Duan Xu felt much better when he thought of this, put the little golden man back in his hand, and left the room.

Just as she left the room, someone spoke again in her mind. It was Napar, and she said it was time for the banquet.

Napar guided Duan Xu through several corridors and entered a stone door, which opened automatically.

The hall is very large, with two rows of tables on both sides, and the tables are already full of people.

Directly opposite, there are two master tables, where Tolly and Napal are sitting.

Duan Xu continued to obey the call and sat down closest to the host's table.

Every seat is occupied, so the party begins.

The scene was very quiet, with only the sound of breathing and heartbeat.

Everyone's sitting posture is very standard, the same sitting posture, the same clothing.

It must have felt uncomfortable the first time. In this hall, Duan Xu was so different. But no one cared about him. Everyone seemed to be waiting, waiting for a certain moment to arrive, waiting for a certain order to be issued.

.

Tuoli stood up, and the scene became even quieter. Even the sound of breathing could not be heard. His expression was serious, or not serious, but angry. His eyes were like two angry flames. No one dared to look directly into his eyes.

Tuoli stretched out his hands to the top of his head, looked up, and chanted loudly. This was the opening ceremony, a mysterious opening ceremony.

At the end of the ceremony, Hao Li sat down and everyone cheered.

In an instant, people changed from sculptures to living people, talking in their mouths and turning food in their hands.

In less than a second, the atmosphere of the entire hall changed from a solemn church to a market food stall. People were feasting.

Duan Xu noticed that in addition to the food he had eaten before, there was also a piece of barbecue, a very huge barbecue. It looked like a turkey leg, but it was ten times bigger than a turkey leg, and the middle bone was as thick as a calf.

The taste is really nothing to say. I have never eaten such delicious barbecue. Coupled with the wine in the golden wine glass, what more do you want in life?

One glass of wine per person. The wine made from a certain kind of fruit has the fragrance of plants and can just take away the greasiness of the barbecue.
