Aztec Eternals

The scorching sun at noon shines on the earth, and the New Year's ceremony is reaching its climax. Where the elders and the king parade, there are prostrations, continuous cheers, and celebratory singing and dancing everywhere. The chanting of the priests was accompanied by the prayers of the people, and the new teachings were chanted in the community for the first time. Burning rosin and sandalwood enveloped the capital in the lake, which is already the kingdom of God.

"The Mexica believe in gods and are tough and aggressive."

Xiulot thought of the evaluation of later generations and smiled with emotion. Immediately, he smelled the rich incense, listened to the high-pitched singing, passed through the enthusiastic crowd, and stepped into a remote alley. The samurai commander followed closely, and the two of them walked along the rush-swaying waterway to the Montezuma Palace.

The boy stepped into the gate of the palace again, and heard a cheerful "Yo Yo". After hearing the sound, he went up to the small two-story building, and saw the little golden eagle leaning against the girl's arms, rubbing back and forth comfortably, raising its head and singing happily from time to time.

Alyssa was dressed in white, staring at the scenery outside the window and the grand celebration in a daze. She held little Avelot in her arms with one hand, as if she was hugging her only companion tightly, and with the other hand, she gently stroked the nape of Meng Diao's neck, with the care of a girl in her tenderness.

"She is pure, without a trace of dust, but also lonely, isolated from society."

Thinking of this, Xiulot felt pity in his heart. He took a few steps forward, and with gentle movements, he half embraced the girl in his arms, and then hugged her tightly tightly. Then, looking at the surprised face of the other party, he said with a smile.

"Just finished working. Let's go swimming in the lake!"

"OK!"

With a smile in her eyes, Alyssa nodded vigorously, subconsciously leaning on the boy's shoulder.

With gentle eyes, Shulot lowered his head slightly, consciously leaning towards the girl's cheek.

"Chirp, chirp!" With a sharp cry, the little golden eagle was caught between the two and ignored. It spread out its tiny wings dissatisfied, fluttering and fluttering, disturbing the girl's long hair. Alyssa turned sideways, broke free from Shulot's arms, and gently held the boy's hand.

Shulot glared at little Avelot, Meng Diao didn't notice it, and was still dawdling in the girl's arms. The boy finally couldn't help stretching out his finger, and flicked it hard on the forehead.

The little golden eagle was suddenly hit hard and let out a scream of "chirp!." Immediately, it shook its small head, opened its big round black eyes, and took a closer look at the appearance of the "bad guy" "Chirp!" The good guy has turned bad! So, it plunged into Alyssa's arms, raised its soft wings again, and covered its small head.

Xiulot's hand hurt from being pinched, and when he looked up, he saw the girl looking at him angrily. He smiled lightly, pinched the girl's cheek gently, and spoke again.

"let's go!"

Rafting on Lake Texcoco, the noisy world is suddenly far away, and the cruel battle is far away. At this time, there is only distant singing. The solitary boat in the sparkling waves transcends everything in the world. A place of this size is their own paradise.

The two sat facing each other, very close to each other, they could clearly see each other's flushed face, and could clearly hear their gradually rapid breathing.

Shulot restrained his cranky thoughts. He thought about today's goal, then stretched out his hand, held the soft and delicate hand, looked into the other's pure and sincere eyes, and asked seriously.

"Alyssa, in your eyes, what does the world look like?"

Alyssa's face was flushed, and she looked into the boy's eyes, feeling the same purity and sincerity. This time, the girl did not avoid her gaze, but revealed her heart softly.

"Sholot, my father told me that the world is created by the gods, and everything is destiny. From the past to today, people live or die, live or fight, control others or be controlled by others according to the wishes of the gods. Great people can Through fighting or worshiping gods, change part of the doomed fate.

However, the fate of the vast majority of mortals has been doomed by the gods, and we will follow a fixed and continuous trajectory to the end of doomed death, and finally meet in the infinitely beautiful kingdom of God."

Hearing the girl's world view, Xiulot was stunned. He wanted to say something, but didn't know where to start. Come to think of it, this is also Avitt's world view. The boy hesitated for a moment, then changed his angle and continued to ask.

"Alyssa, what does your world look like then?"

Alyssa looked at the boy, her blush extending from her face to her neck. She was quiet for a long time before opening her mouth in a low voice.

"In my world, there was only my father at first, then my younger brother, and now I have you."

Hearing this confession, Shulot's heart surged. Urgently and carefully, he pulled the girl into his arms, feeling the real temperature and the common intense heartbeat. After a while, the boy left the soft embrace and returned to the topic again.

"Alyssa, in your heart, what do other people look like besides my father, younger brother and me? How do you treat them?"

Hearing this question, Alyssa was a little confused. She blinked her bright eyes and answered uncertainly.

"Other people? Although the paths designed by the gods are different, they are probably similar to us. The guards are very kind to me, and the relatives of the royal family often give me gifts. Maybe they are for other things. But I can feel To, some of them sincere emotion.

My father said I could control them and decide whether people lived or died. But I don't want to control others, let alone let them die because of me. I know that once a person goes to the kingdom of God, he will never come back, and he only lives once.

Whenever I can do something to help people around me, I will be happy for a long time, but there is not much I can do."

Shulot stared at Alyssa's pure eyes and listened to her true inner voice, feeling inexplicably distressed. This is a kind girl who grew up in a beautiful garden and has not experienced the ups and downs of society.

The teenager knows that in the real world, it is actually very difficult to be kind, and most people tend to be neutral or evil. If a person wants to do a good thing, it is much more difficult than doing a bad thing. This requires greater ability, a firmer will, and a more accurate grasp of others.

After thinking for a long time, Xiulot decided not to affect Alyssa's three views for the time being, and started with simple science popularization. So, the boy hugged the girl in his arms, pressed against the slightly trembling ears, and breathed softly with a smile.

"Alyssa, now on the lake, let me tell you the story of water!"

A smile appeared on the girl's face. She leaned on the young man's shoulder and listened with her ears open.

"In this world, there is an interaction among all things. This effect is called force. We hug each other tightly and feel each other's softness, which is the effect of force. Force makes us deform each other. And in this lake Among them, the boat can float because of the buoyancy of water to the boat.”

"When we swim in the lake, we don't sink. We also rely on the buoyancy of the water. In Texcoco's East Lake, it is easier to float than in the West Lake. This is because there is more salt in the East Lake, which increases the water's gravity. buoyancy."

"Ah, if you don't believe me, I can build you a small pool and put lots and lots of salt in it. At that time, you can lie on the water and bask in the sun, even if you don't move, you won't sink "

Hearing this, Alyssa nodded curiously. Listening to the boy's words, there was a lot of confusion in her eyes, but also a new brilliance.

Xiulot thought for a while, then reorganized the language, and spoke gently again.

"Alyssa, the world is a cycle. The story of water is the cycle of water.

The tears you cry for me will rise to the sky with the warm wind, and fly far away in the sky, over the hills and mountains. Then, it will encounter the cold wind again, and even itself will become cold. Soon, it turned into raindrops in the cold wind and fell into the high mountains. Then, between the peaks, it converges into flowing streams. The streams converge into rivers, and the rivers descend from high to low, and come to this beautiful Texcoco Lake again. And when you drink the boiled lake water, it returns to your body, waiting to flow out again, for me."

The girl imagined longingly, feeling the journey of water, with a smile on the corner of her mouth. After a while, she looked at the boy with some doubts.

"Why, Shulot, why do we drink the boiled water?"

"Because there are many invisible small organisms in the lake water. I call them bacteria, which are tiny bad organisms. Bacteria will enter our body with drinking water, hurt our vulnerable places, and make us sick and weak. Only the water After boiling, the bacteria will die and disappear."

Xiulot explained patiently, using plain language as much as possible.

Alyssa nodded half-understood, tilted her head cutely and thought for a while, then asked softly.

"Then Shulot, why do my tears flow for you? I often think of my mother and shed tears."

The boy was speechless, and then his heart ached with pity, and he hugged the girl tightly in his arms.

"Because, now you are mine, and even the tears are mine. Crying will hurt your body. Your mother, who is not allowed to cry in the future, is looking at us happily in the kingdom of God. Then, Alyssa, you have done it for me Have you ever cried?"

"Well, yes. Sometimes my father and brother are away. I miss you by myself and I cry."

Hearing this, Xiulot nodded in satisfaction without thinking too much. Afterwards, he just exhorted gently.

"No, don't cry for me either. I don't want you to shed tears. You have to take good care of your body and stay with me for a long, long time."

The sunlight dyed through the waves, and the two snuggled up on the lake for a long time.

In the world of being alone, two hearts fly freely. They wander among the rainbows, soar above the wilderness, they are in love, and they are in ceremony.

It wasn't until the sun slanted westward that Shulot brought Alyssa to the royal garden.

Two seasons a year, the tropical sun is always warm. Flowers bloom all year round in the royal garden.

Shulot looked around and saw a beautiful sea of ​​flowers blooming by the lake where the breeze blows: lanterns, begonias and fuchsias upside down, attracting dancing hummingbirds and butterflies. Tropical hibiscus blooms are large and show off vibrant, feminine colors. Ornamental pineapple flowers are like torches, with various and unique postures. The flamingo flowers are in clusters, like a pink canopy in full bloom.

These are native flowers of Central America, which have not yet left the American continent and spread throughout the world. At this time, there was no one in the sea of ​​flowers, and the beauty of this tranquility was shared exclusively by the two of them.

Looking at the gorgeous flowers, Alyssa stood in a daze, with sincere joy and pure happiness blooming on her face.

Afterwards, she sang a joyful song, twirling and dancing in the sea of ​​flowers, stretching her slightly grown body, her white clothes and long hair fluttering. From time to time, the girl would lean close to the flowers, sniff the various fragrances, and caress the warmth of the petals. Then, she let go of her hand, smiled happily, and continued to dance lightly, like a butterfly among flowers.

Shulot stood quietly by the side, smiling at the dancing girl. At this moment, he felt that he had become Zhuang Zhou, and even his heart danced with the butterflies, falling into a dream of intertwined souls.

After a while, Alyssa flew back again. Her face was flushed after exercise, and she was panting slightly, but there was a satisfied smile at the corner of her mouth. The boy took out his handkerchief and wiped it carefully for the girl. Afterwards, Alyssa plucked up her courage, gave the boy a happy hug, and passed on the warmth of her body to him.

Feeling the girl's scorching body temperature, Xiulot smiled slightly, and lowered his head to touch her cheek. Afterwards, the teenager asked with concern.

"Alyssa, what is your favorite thing? Flowers and dancing?"

Alyssa raised her head and looked at the boy happily.

"Yes, Shulot. Since I was a child, there are not many things I can do. I like to look at the murals of mythology, but there are few murals. I like to play the beautiful ocarina, but there are not many repertoires I can learn. I like to recite poems and feel the images in them. I like to dance freely and fly lightly like the wind.

My favorite is all kinds of beautiful plants. They have different shapes, different colors, different tastes, and different functions. According to the priests, they can also be used to prepare potions, help people communicate with gods, and make people happy and intoxicated.”

Shulot smiled and listened. This is the first time that a girl expresses her inner joy and hobbies. Afterwards, the young man was taken aback for a moment and fell into deep thought. After a while, he asked with some uncertainty.

"Alyssa, do you like plants and pharmacy?"

Alyssa tilted her head in thought. Then she looked at the boy, nodded her head vigorously, and said affirmatively.

"Well! Yes, I like beautiful plants, and I also like wonderful potions. I can remember the characteristics of each flower and tree, and I can also distinguish their smells. I want to create a happy potion for my father and You feel happy and you make other people feel happy."

Hearing the girl's answer, Shulot suddenly thought of the chief priest, Kechar, and the mysterious holy water he prepared, which even made Gilliam smile happily. After hesitating for a moment, the boy finally spoke.

"Alyssa, the alliance's research on pharmacy is extremely advanced, and learning about pharmacy should help you in the future. I remember Kepana's place, where the chief priest's plant plate and pharmacy formula are kept. I'll go to Aka tomorrow. Pu, help you get these materials. In addition, the High Priests must also have old priests who are good at pharmacy, who can be sent to you as teachers. Of course, the elders with the highest attainments in pharmacy should be.

Alyssa, promise me, don't take the prepared medicine by yourself, you can use rabbits to test the effect, and you can even use slaves to test it. Special attention should be paid to those happy potions, which may have unpredictable side effects."

Listening to the boy's words, Alyssa smiled happily. She half understood and nodded in agreement, approached actively, and gave the boy a bold hug again.

Then Xiulot hugged the girl tightly, stared at her pure eyes, remembered her lovely demeanor, nodded secretly, and made up his mind.

"My beloved, let you stay away from power struggles and fights, and concentrate on studying pharmacy and medicine! Maybe, this is the path you should take. Maybe, you will live longer than me in this life."

The sun shines on the sea of ​​flowers, and in the sea of ​​flowers are two people embracing each other tightly. When the breeze blows, the flowers sway in the breeze, and a petal falls silently, fluttering and falling into the lake, flowing away with the water waves. In this world, no one has ever been able to truly grasp destiny, and destiny is always drifting, going to an elusive distance.

These two chapters are about the heroine. Note: The heroine will start from here and gradually play an important role until the most important end.
