Chapter 355 The Beauty of Construction

Si Yang climbed onto his new body and returned to the Silk Island.

He told his tribesmen everything he had seen outside, including various civilizations and races, as well as the construction skills he had learned.

The Silk Tribe had always used their instincts to build things, and had never thought that other races could do the same thing in different ways.

"We should not be complacent..."

At the same time, Si Yang decided to pass on the knowledge he had learned to his tribesmen.

Soon, the knowledge of construction spread throughout the entire Silk Island.

Originally a race with a talent for construction, the Silk Tribe had a very fast understanding of construction skills. Before long, Si Yang had nothing to teach.

At the same time, various buildings appeared on the island, all of which were built by the Silk Tribe themselves. They combined the architectural styles of different civilizations, and each room was a masterpiece of nature.

Si Yang unknowingly became the "worst" one again.

Sometimes, the gap in talent cannot be made up by hard work.

Si Yang often wondered if it would be better not to tell this knowledge to his tribesmen.

But seeing that the lives of the tribe members were getting better and better, it also put this selfish idea behind.

Rather than being far ahead, it wanted to be a useful person to the Si tribe.

During the time of wandering outside, it understood Si Ling's words more deeply. Everyone has their own strengths and there is no need to compare with others. You are yourself.

Not long after, Si Yang decided to go to sea again. It felt that its knowledge was not rich enough. Since the tribe members did not like the sun, it would be up to it, who liked the sun, to bring back the knowledge.

This time, all the tribe members came to the beach to see it off.

Si Yang bathed in the dazzling sun and drifted farther and farther.

After that, Si Yang began to continue to travel the infinite sea.

This time, it was clearer about what it wanted.

Every time it arrived at a place, it would learn about the architectural style there, and then learn about different construction methods from the architectural style.

The richer the civilization, the more architectural styles there are.

Tombs, temples, prisons, dams... These are also the buildings it learned after deeply understanding the cultures of different races.

It not only looks at the appearance of the building, but also understands the historical evolution, cultural connotation, and stories behind these buildings.

It will chat with the old man guarding the tomb all night about the battlefield, and will sit in front of the temple and listen to those worldly wishes.

The old man muttered that his comrades died in a war, and he was just a deserter, hiding under the corpses and escaping. After returning, he built these tombs, looking at these tombs, just like looking at his comrades.

The old man's heart is also trapped here. He can escape from the battlefield, but he can never escape the guilt that goes deep into his bones.

People come and go in the temple, and incense is entangled. Those believers come here with the troubles of the world, and everyone has their own troubles and difficulties.

Just like when this temple was built, a group of people who couldn't find peace of mind put their hearts in this temple.

Rather than building a temple to pray to God, it is better to say that it is a safe house that can make oneself feel at ease.

Praying to God, praying to God, but just to seek peace of mind.

Si Yang realized.

The builders of those magnificent buildings were not the high and mighty rulers, but the grassroots people who put the buildings together brick by brick.

Each of them is a piece of history.

Siyang's thoughts gradually changed, and now he felt that building was not simple.

He returned to the island and told his people the stories he had heard all over the world.

"As long as you build with awe, all buildings will have magical effects."

Siyang thought that this time, the people on the island would quickly master this "heartfelt" construction method.

However, no one could understand Siyang.

The buildings they built had no heart.

Siyang looked at the empty shells on the island and sighed.

Those who did not truly empathize with those stories could not build such buildings, and no matter how high the construction skills were, they were useless.

Some tribesmen want to optimize the overly long eaves of the temple and replace them with a dome that saves materials and is more solid. Siyang will tell it:

"Why should the eaves of the temple be so long? Because travelers come and go to take shelter from the rain from time to time. They don't want to disturb the local gods, so they stand under the eaves outside the temple, but the gods are tolerant. They make the eaves longer to cover these travelers and prevent the storm from hitting them."

These things are not something that can be considered after mastering the construction skills.

Many redundant parts of the building have their special meanings. Some are the experience left by the ancestors, some are out of humanitarian considerations, and some represent auspicious meanings.

The tribesmen can quickly master those rigid construction steps and can also use their talents to optimize them, but they don't know the stories behind the buildings, so they can't build buildings with souls.

Siyang doesn't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. It can only suggest that the tribesmen go out to sea to learn about these buildings.

However, the tribesmen don't like the sun, and they don't want to be exposed to the sun at sea. They would rather hide on the island than go out to see the world.

Si Yang couldn't say anything about this.

"Everyone is different."

Si Yang went out to sea from time to time, shuttling across the vast ocean.

Until a walrus messenger came to Si Island and invited the Si tribe to participate in the siege of the hell beast.

"The construction ability of the Si tribe will be of great help to us in building Paradise Island."

The walrus said that many races participated in this action, and even some races that were originally at war temporarily put aside their hatred and fought against the hell beast together.

Listening to the messenger's introduction, the Si tribe also understood the urgency of the situation, but they were still unwilling to leave Si Island.

Only Si Yang stood up.

"I'll go, I'll participate on behalf of the Si tribe."

The messenger nodded, told Si Yang the location of Paradise Island, and hurried to the next island.

Not long after, Si Yang decided to go to Paradise Island.

It has been out to sea many times and is already familiar with it.

The tribesmen also came to the beach to see it off as usual.

"You must come back, I want to hear your stories about those buildings."

Si Ling likes to listen to Si Yang talk about the outside world. Although it doesn't like the sun, it is full of yearning for the outside world and often pesters Si Yang to ask this and that.

It took out a lace and tied it to Siyang's mycelium.

"What is this?" Siyang asked curiously.

"It's a gift from me to you. You don't need me to help you build your body now. I can only make a simple thing for you."

Siyang didn't know what the lace was for, but he felt warm.

Some things are warmer than the sun.

"You must come back."

"Definitely."
