Chapter 510: Iceland Shock (44)
"Could it be said that he..."
Seeing that the little ginseng leader in front of him didn't respond to his calls to Tong Hege several times, Bingyi couldn't help but look at Yu Hehui, but stopped talking.
You won't be hurt by him.
The ginseng he had eaten before was just the beard, but now he had eaten most of the ginseng. Didn't those folklore say that these grass fairies, if too much of their original body is missing, their magic power will weaken and they will no longer be able to turn into humans? , is this a problem for Tong Hege?
"Now I believe that Tong Hege is really loyal to you."
Yu Hehui was not too worried and said with a teasing smile. Seeing how relaxed he was, Bingyi also relaxed a little and admitted generously: "I believe it."
I didn’t believe it before, but now that he has been eaten like this, his vitality must have been greatly reduced. Even if he has evil intentions, there is not much threat... huh?
"Just believe it."
Bing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yu Hehui, and the small ginseng head placed on the bed also swayed slightly, and then two different groups of plants appeared next to it.
Bingyi:?
"Lingshen, Polygonum multiflorum and Tai Sui are all the incarnations of Tong Hege."
Tong Hege is unable to speak now, and Yu Hehui explains on his behalf.
"Ginseng is best for you and easy to eat, so it has always been like ginseng."
"Um."
Bingyi responded and watched with interest as the orange-yellow Tai Sui wrapped the ginseng head. Polygonum multiflorum automatically broke into pieces and melted into the mass. Under their joint nourishment, only a small section of ginseng was left. Ginseng tendons grow back at a speed visible to the naked eye and return to their original appearance.
"In about five hours, it will be back to its original state."
"Yeah."
Seeing Bingyi looking over with a half-smile, Yu Hehui's eyes were calm. There is no way, Wei Xun is so suspicious, he must know that Tong Hege has three parts, and he will never trust him easily, that is, Tong Hege must pay for free first, so that Wei Xun realizes the importance of Tong Hege and it is harmless to him Only with a supportive attitude can Tai Sui and Polygonum multiflorum be brought to light again.
The order is important.
"It's almost half past five, which means that it will be fully restored by ten or eleven noon?"
"Um."
Yu Hehui responded: "When the time comes, let him join the team as a participant, otherwise it will be inconvenient to transform into a human in the scenic spot."
Bingyi readily agreed. Of course, the first time I met Tong Hege was in a private space. To communicate with him, understand and test him, it was of course better for the two of them to meet alone. The brigade must have arrived at the Golden Circle attraction at 10:30 today. It was a mess and full of people, so it was not the best time for Tong Hege to change.
It would be time to have breakfast in two hours. Bingyi was not sleepy, but in high spirits. Putting Tong Hege aside to let him recover, Bingyi took out the silver medal for the strongest gladiator and the instruction manual made of old sheepskin. He glanced at it and Bingyi immediately laughed.
Sure enough, it was just as he guessed.
The words on the old sheepskin manual have undergone wonderful changes!
The first line of text on it is still [The most powerful gladiator will receive the attention and protection of the Nordic gods], but starting from the second line of text, it has changed. It originally read [Today is Monday, the moon god Ma Ni will be watching you], but now it has become [Today is Tuesday, and Tyr, the god of war, will be watching you]!
"Yu Hehui, look at this."
Bingyi handed the old sheepskin instruction manual to Yu Hehui to read, and explained the changes in the words on it: "Tell me, what does this mean?"
"It's the connection between Norse mythology and the day of the week!"
Yu Hehui was really smart, and he suddenly realized it after just one glance.
The method of counting days based on a seven-day cycle first originated in Babylon. The Roman Emperor Constantine announced that a week would be seven days and named each day with a Roman letter. But although England was once ruled by the Roman Empire, Latin did not take root here*
The English are often called the Anglo-Saxons, and both "Anglo" and "Saxon" are Germanic tribes who brought their ancient Germanic language here in the fifth century. Since then, Germanic-speaking tribes from Northern Europe, Germany and the Netherlands have continued to immigrate here, so the British
The country’s language is deeply influenced by Nordic culture*
Linguistically speaking, modern English belongs to the Germanic language family and is grammatically closer to Germanic languages. Many words are connected with Nordic culture. For example, Sunday is taken from the sun, which is the day when the ancient Germanic people worshiped the sun. The sun evolved from the Nordic sun god Sur (also known as Sunna and Sunne);
Monday, taken from Moon, is the day of the moon for the Anglo-Saxons, and Moon evolved from the Nordic moon god Mani*
Just as it says on the parchment, 'Today is Monday, the moon god Mani will be watching you.' At that time, Bingyi thought of the relationship between Nordic mythology and the week, until the time passed twelve o'clock, the time changed, and on the parchment The handwriting also changed, and he finally confirmed it.
Because Tuesday evolved from the name of Tyr, the Norse god of war!
"If this can be confirmed, the reward buff for the strongest gladiator in the following evening duel will be determined."
Yu Hehui couldn't help but said: "It would be best if we could participate in tonight's duel, and it would be best if we could win the title of the strongest gladiator again!"
"That's right."
Bingyi nodded in agreement.
Every night's duel is held at night, and the strongest gladiator metal medal obtained can be worn until the duel the next night. It can be said that the metal medal obtained on that day actually does not leave much time for the corresponding god to 'watch' today. It’s the Norse god of the second day.
If he can get another Strongest Gladiator metal medal tonight, he can wear it all day tomorrow.
"Tomorrow is Wednesday."
Bingyi and Yu Hehui looked at each other and said nothing.
Wednesday is very important, it corresponds to the Norse God King Odin! Wednesday comes from 'Woden\'s day', the ancient day to worship the main god Odin. Woden is the old English name for Odin*
"So what Miranda and the others are guessing is pretty much the same."
Yu Hehui sighed. He had told Bingyi before about what Miranda and others discussed on the bus. They believe that the hidden mythological mission of Loki matching the divine horse and leaving the eight-legged divine horse corresponds to today's Golden Circle Icelandic horse ride. This is indeed the case based on time.
Today, the third horse and the divine horse are paired together to give birth to the eight-legged divine colt. Tomorrow, Wednesday, is Odin's day, which corresponds to the mythical plot of dedicating the eight-legged divine colt to Odin.
Odin might have something to do with the volcanic core.
Yu Hehui silently thought that the eruption from Snæfells volcano was the culprit that caused the abnormal pollution in Iceland, and the energy core (pollution source) material in the magma was closely related to Nordic mythology. Yu Hehui couldn't help but think of Wei Xun's mission as a mountain god. There were contaminated corpses of mountain gods under the Ming Tombs. So what was in the Snaefell volcano?
The teams of Dream Chaser and Lizard Duke were missing, and Yu Hehui didn't know if there was any live broadcast room for them outside. But if there really is a monster as powerful as the polluted mountain god hidden in Snæfells Volcano, one or even several monsters, it will definitely require the leadership of an A/S-level tour guide to suppress it.
Wei Xun had not yet recalled these things, so Yu Hehui could not take the initiative to mention them, but could only keep them in mind.
"Thursday is important, too."
"Um?"
Yu and Hui Leng said nothing at the same time, attracting Bingyi's eyes from the metal plate.
"Thursday corresponds to Thor (Thursday, taken from Thor in Norse mythology)."
Yu Hehui said: "In the customs of the ancient Germanic people, Thursday is the most important day of the week. The Germanic people usually hold meetings on Thursday. Thor is the patron saint of meetings and contracts."
The important meeting was held on Thursday, and Thursday was also the middle day of their seven-day journey. In Yu Hehui's view, it was likely that news related to the geocentric volcano would be announced on this day.
"You are right, but Thor was killed by my child."
It's rare for Bingyi to joke. In Norse mythology, Thor, the god of thunder, died in the mouth of Loki's second son, the mortal python Jörmungandr.
"But Thursday does matter."
Although Thor is Odin's child, there was a time in the world long ago when Thor had a higher status than Odin and was even revered as Zeus in Greek mythology! In the Rusala Temple, the first holy place in Northern Europe, the statue of Thor stands in the center of the temple, and the statue of Odin stands upside down beside him. There are many historical factors and the background of the times, but no matter what -
"Odin was also killed by your children."
Yu Hehui teased: "You are simply a thorn in the side of the Nordic gods."
"That's right."
Bingyi pretended to be humble, but actually smiled complacently, and took back the parchment from Yu Hehui: "I am indeed a thorn in the eyes of the Nordic gods.
I saw these lines written on the parchment:
[The most powerful gladiators will receive the attention and protection of the Nordic gods]
[Today is Tuesday, and Tyr, the God of War, will be watching you]
[The God of War Tyr is the god of war and courage, the protector of contracts, the guardian of oaths, and the son of Odin, the main god of the Asa clan. He has the strongest sword. According to legend, whoever can get Tyr's sword can... Conquer the world - win every battle. But his life will also be lost with this knife! *]
[Under Tyr's gaze, as a gladiator, you will become a Nordic warrior. Your sword will be blessed by Tyr, making it indestructible and invincible! 】
[Note: Tyr, the God of War, has deprived your right arm of the ability to use a knife, because Tyr, the God of War, has no right arm! 】
【What? Where is Tire's right arm, you ask? Then you have to ask Loki’s children! 】
"The demon wolf Fenrir bit off the right arm of Tyr, the god of war."
Bingyi chuckled and said, "My child is really capable in everything."
"You have to have a knife."
Yu Hehui said happily, what a blessing. Swords are sacred in the eyes of Nordic warriors. They swear that they often have a masculine and brave "Dance of Swords" in the name of the "sword tip", and Wei Xun happens to be a swordsman, so with this buff Excellent fit! Putting aside the vampire knife with the mouthparts of a butterfly, his murderous madman knife is very likely to get an opportunity to become stronger today, and the invincible God of War Tyr's knife is an opportunity!
The Outlaw's Knife was once fused with the arms dealer's murderous knife. If the Tyr's Knife can be found, it will naturally be fused with the God of War's Knife!
But the problem is——
"You want to give me the knife back?"
At seven o'clock in the morning, the passengers went to the Volcano Lava Hotel restaurant to have the hotel's buffet breakfast. Bingyi took Yu Hehui to find Wei Xun alone.
An Xuefeng took the knife, his emotions fluctuating in his heart.
Why did he lend the knife to Bingyi before the evening duel?
It seemed like he borrowed it naturally, or he borrowed it on his own initiative, but this knife was the weapon he used most easily, and he shouldn't have lent it out like this. An Xuefeng always felt something was wrong. He thought about it carefully, and even felt that everything that had happened since yesterday's whale watching had a subtle, wrong feeling.
If he hadn't eaten anything that Bingyi had personally handed over, he would have suspected that Bingyi had drugged him!
Why, why did he always get close to him? Did he want to stay by his side so much? Even more, he even shed tears beside Bingyi after turning into a snow ferret? ?
Is this him? !
"Okay."
The more An Xuefeng thought about it, the more he felt his scalp was hairy. He didn't even dare to look at Bingyi. He put away the knife neatly and turned around and left.
"I'm going to eat first."
He had to think carefully and analyze the various things that happened yesterday!
Seeing him put away the knife so decisively and leave, Bingyi didn't feel anything, but Yu Hehui, who had turned into a fox and was lying in Bingyi's tour guide hood, was so angry that his face was puffed up. With such a good opportunity, it would be great if the Madman's Knife stayed in Bingyi's hands. Whether it was the old or young Captain An, they could use the knife as an excuse to get closer to Bingyi and test Bingyi more. This was a win-win situation.
As a result, Captain An took the knife and turned around and left.
He hated that he was a piece of wood!
