Chapter 2661: Not More Than Three Months
Yi Yun, the sky hangs like an elephant, seeing good and bad luck.
It means that the signs displayed by nature can predict good and bad omens.
Bolide is a very typical celestial phenomenon.
It is mentioned in "He Tu" that "all shooting stars are the essence of hook and Chen, and they are controlled by the unity of heaven." Meteors are as big as a fou or an urn and disappear without a trace, so they are called flying stars. Its traces are in the sky, and they are called meteors. In short, falling from the top is called a stream, and rising from the bottom is called a flying star. Meng Kangzi, a famous ancient astrologer, said, "Meteor, the light is connected, and it is as big as a melon." Peach, named Envoy Star or Flying Star, is the mastermind of affairs. Meteors are responsible for military matters, making the stars act accordingly, and predicting them according to their incoming and outgoing places.
If you don’t have a clear idea of the above slightly obscure description, then you only need to remember one sentence——
The main soldier of Meteor is in great danger when he sees it.
Hilda turned around and followed the direction of Zheng Qing's fingers, and happened to see a few meteors streaking across the sky. She subconsciously pushed up the mask on her face, frowned, and counted quickly with her fingers.
"Is it a bolide?"
Zheng Qing spoke with some anxiety, always feeling that this scene had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.
Astrology is a subject of advanced divination, and Zheng Qing has no research on it - he can't even tell the difference between the names 'Meteor', 'Flying Star', 'Comet' and 'Emissary' - among his familiar classmates, Perhaps only Xiao Xiao and Jiang Yu have a certain understanding of this field.
According to Zheng Qing's simple understanding, every star in the sky corresponds to a certain person on the ground. Once the star falls, the corresponding person will die.
But the elite registered wizards of the teaching assistant group can obviously see more from those bright red tracks.
"It's a bolide."
Hilda nodded slightly, her mask placed on her forehead like a funny little hat. Her eyes never left the starry sky that had dimmed again, but her voice did not sound so serious:
"...If the school's astrologer was present just now, he would probably record it in his notes like this - on Yiyou day in April, February 2010, on the day of the God of Heaven, the opposite of the rabbit and evil in the east, at night, the Jade Rabbit disappeared, and there was a red star in the sky Several of them, like projectiles, were seen in Jisu. They moved with a vibrating sound and moved towards the wall. Stars fell like rain, which is called "breaking the wall". Not long after, the fire was bright, and there was a loud sound like thunder in the sky. It gradually darkened for a long time, both far and near. See."
"What is a broken wall?" Zheng Qing struggled to understand the description.
Hilda did not mince her words, but explained carefully as if in class: "In ancient times, there was a painter who painted a dragon in Anle Temple without dotting its eyes. He said that 'if he dots his eyes, he will fly away.' People think he is lying, so please do it." , a moment later, thunder and lightning broke through the wall, and the dragon with the eye-puncher broke through the wall, and those who didn't dot the eye appeared... I know this story is very cliché, but it is very classic, because you can extend the concept of "breaking the wall" to "qualitative change". Or 'out of control'... The bolide is not a good omen, but it appears to be 'breaking the wall' when it moves. Do you know what it means?"
"What?"
"Meaning that bad things will be worse than we think..."
While he was talking, a few more shooting stars passed by.
Zheng Qing finally realized where that damn sense of déjà vu came from - when he received the third paper crane from the teaching assistant team, he had had a whim, and inexplicably the fireworks he had seen in the small world of the sandbox appeared in front of his eyes. picture.
Now, he was 90% sure that what he saw at that time were these bolides.
The question is, what does bolide have to do with the fireworks in the small world of the sandbox? In other words, does the appearance of these bolides have something to do with those crows?
The commotion behind him interrupted Zheng Qing's chaotic thoughts.
After the bolide streaked across the sky, the originally quiet centaur camp began to boil in a short time. One group after another, the centaur knights were fully armed and set out from different camp gates and disappeared into the dark night. The rumble of horse hooves The barking of the dogs behind the fence was easily drowned out, and the churning bonfire almost drove away the cold atmosphere of this Qingming Festival night.
The two assistant coaches, B and C, who had been on patrol earlier, returned in a hurry.
Not long after, Wizard A also left the camp, accompanied by several old horsemen. The old horsemen all had very serious expressions. They looked up at the sky from time to time, looking worried.
Zheng Qing didn't pay too much attention to those old horses.
He paid more attention to the brown pony following the leader - although in his opinion, most fish, cows, and horses have the same face, but at this moment, he was very The brown pony must be Luna Houyhnhnm who just entered Fringe Academy.
How could she be in this place!
While he was stunned, Team Leader A and Luna Houyhnhnms had already crossed the fence of the camp. On the contrary, the elders of the Centaur tribe stopped inside the fence with solemn expressions.
“It’s beyond our capabilities and there’s nothing we can do to help.”
The voice of the old centaur with gray mane in the lead was a little muddy, as if there was a handful of grass stuffed in his throat, but his eyes were very bright, and his eyes flicked over the other four assistants one by one, and he nodded incomprehensibly. : "...After the high priest leaves the school, he will personally visit several professors at the school to explain the relevant situation."
The wording is a bit vague, but the general meaning is not difficult to understand.
An old horseman with a pure white mane on the left side looked up at the sky. There were no meteors at this time, and even a few stars could not be seen in the deep night sky. The stars were extremely obscure.
It retracted its sight and sang in a clear voice: "There is light in the meteor, and there is a tail when you look at it. Wherever you go, there will be war and bloodshed. It is unknown what you will see. It is not expected to be more than three months, and the disaster will come."
"It's up to you Luna."
The third horse elder spoke immediately, without giving the assistant teachers a chance to question that verse. The third centaur elder was a woman. She looked at the little brown mare outside the fence kindly, nodded at the end, turned around, and left with the other two centaur elders, and soon disappeared among the assistant teachers. in sight.
Only then did Zheng Qing find the opportunity to speak.
"What's the matter with her?" He pointed to the little mare beside him who was tapping her hooves out of boredom.
Team leader A explained concisely and concisely: "This is Miss Luna from the Houyhnhnms tribe. She is studying at Fringe College. Today, she took advantage of the holiday to come to the Utya tribe to visit distant relatives... Due to some accidents, she stayed until the evening, so the Utya tribe Let us take her back to school."
Zheng Qing did not know that the Horse People and the Houyhnhnms were distant relatives.
"What does that gatha just mean?" Hilda spoke up for the second time.
"have no idea."
Leader A shook his head simply: "The high priest of the Utya tribe is in retreat and has not given us any clues... except for the verse just now... As you heard, the high priest is out of retreat. I will go to school in person later.”
"Didn't the divination team say the clues are here?"
"They are just diviners, not true gods who follow their words. Besides, who knows that that verse or those fireballs are not the real reason why we are here tonight?"
