Don't disturb the sorcerer's scientific research

This is mainly due to the magical habit of priests as historians. They record history relatively casually, but like writing a diary, writing every detail.

All kinds of small things in life are recorded, such as what dishes were served at a banquet I attended.

It is no wonder that nursery rhymes are recorded.

It will certainly be very convenient for future historians to study the lives of ordinary people of this era.

As for the nursery rhyme that mentions Bubu, it is called "Poor Bubu".

Just from the name, it sounds like an undead ghost with a lot of resentment.

Jia Xiu read the nursery rhyme carefully.

“Poor Bubu, wanting to be a knight.

“Without helmet or armor, we go to the training ground to compete.

“The rapier is so swift and invisible that the instructor can hardly match it.

"I'm sad that I haven't been canonized, simply because I don't have a surname."

Aren't all the nursery rhymes in Riverwood so realistic? Right off the bat, the most crucial requirement for becoming a knight is that your father is a knight, and having a noble surname makes everything easier. As for the peasants, they can just go wherever's cooler.

There is really no room for children to leave the world a beautiful fantasy.

Once upon a time, Jia Xiu thought that such things no longer existed in the era he lived in.

Later I found out that the surface was gone.

Sighing, Jia Xiu looked at the second paragraph.

“Poor Bubu, his ears are so long and pointy.

“Help people harvest their crops and sew their clothes.

"Bubu is really kind, everyone says so.

"Until the knight's sword was lost in the church."

Wait, this Bubu is not human?

Features like long and pointed ears can only belong to goblins, elves or fairies. Goblins are unlikely because no goblin wants to be a knight.

The probability of an elf is not high either, as elves are not interested in mixing with humans.

At least Jia Xiu has not seen a single elf in the more than two years he has been in Ximu Town.

That's a fairy.

It's true that some goblins like to play with people.

“Whoever comes to steal, whoever comes to rob, the town is in an uproar.

“Bubu knows magic, no one can catch him.

"I didn't steal, I didn't rob," Bubu said in a defensive tone.

"No one is willing to listen, and I go far away alone."

So this is a fairy who is young, not a bad person, likes to play with people, but has been wronged.

That's really resentful.

“Bub is gone, Bub doesn’t forgive.

“The precious knight sword is hidden in the instructor’s home.

"On a full moon night, the instructor went crazy.

"Who will suffer the next full moon night..."

After reading the entire nursery rhyme, Jia Xiu had only one thought.

Is this really a nursery rhyme?

Let the children sing a weird story that is all black, and leave a blank at the end to reveal who will suffer.

There are serious doubts about the mental health of children in Ximu Town.

Jia Xiu turned to the next page, wanting to see if the priest who recorded this nursery rhyme had left any other useful content.

"What thoughts and feelings does this nursery rhyme mainly express?"

Who are you asking!

On the next page, there are only a few questions left by the priest.

What Jia Xiu hated most in his life was people giving questions without providing any reference answers.

In addition to the reading comprehension question, there are two more lines: "What is Bubu's wish?" and "How can I make Bubu no longer feel resentful?"

"Solving these problems will allow Bubu's soul to rest in peace."

“I didn’t do that…”

Now Jia Xiu understood that the priest who recorded this nursery rhyme wanted to let Bubu rest in peace, but failed.

Yes, what is its long-cherished wish?

Jia Xiu suddenly remembered that "Common Knowledge of the Dead" talked about a way to establish contact with the dead who have not yet fully awakened.

By using this method of communication, one can have simple communication with the dead. Although the dead will not answer directly, they can sense what is causing their violent emotional fluctuations.

Logically speaking, Bubu would have an intense emotional reaction when he heard about the wish he wanted to fulfill.

Jia Xiu thought of a way to solve the problem that was not very clever, but definitely useful.

Exhaustive list!

Make a list of possible wishes, and when Bubu enters the intermediate state where he is about to wake up but has not yet woken up, try them one by one.

reasonable.

Jia Xiu immediately took action. He tore off a piece of draft paper and began to list possible wishes one by one, continuing until dawn.

When I walked out of the library, I had a trance-like feeling that the world was not real.

Is this what an all-nighter is?

But he still had to go to work, so Jia Xiu decided to take a couple of hours' sleep on the ox cart.

……

"These damned cultists not only didn't kill Jia Xiu, they even started a business with him! Started a business?"

In the lord's mansion, Hayes tore the newspaper in his hand into pieces.

"Where's my money? Where's my money? They even took my money and used it to build tourism projects!"

The more Hays thought about it, the angrier he became.

"What's the difference between this and lying on my bed in the house I bought, drinking the wine I bought, and hugging my woman!"

"Master, that's not the right metaphor."

The loyal servant said on the side.

Hays's eyes were red. "It's really important! It's really important! I have to think of a way, I must think of a way..."

"Uh, young master, how about we tell the master to send the knights to wipe them out?"

"Stupid! Can I let my father know about my dealings with the cult?"

Hays paced the room.

"Besides, my father has long known that there's a cult stronghold outside of town, but he never went to wipe it out because it wasn't worth it. Those cult members are so poor, what good would it do to wipe them out?"

"Master is right."

"No, I'm not right!"

Hays raised his finger, as if inspired.

The servant tried his best to control his expression and keep it tense.

If Hans wasn't a young master, who would have allowed him to engage in this fight between his left and right brains?

Hays, who was standing by, was rummaging through the scraps of newspaper he had just torn open.

Trying to piece together that report about the cult's great escape.

After staring at it for a few seconds, he suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! I get it! I know how to convince my father to wipe out this evil cult!"

After saying that, he ran quickly towards the study.

……

"Father, do you know about the cult's escape outside of town?"

In the study, Hays said excitedly.

"I know. Tourists like it very much lately."

"The cave they used was the cave of the cult that believed in the god of deception and curse."

"So, why don't you make more money for us?"

The baron's tone indicated that it didn't matter who was a cult or not, what mattered was who could make money for the territory.

"Look."

Hays took out the scrap of newspaper and pointed to a line.

"It says here that the final step in the experience is to receive a blessing from a priest of the Church of Light, the town's pastor. The Church of Light definitely doesn't cooperate with cults. This proves that someone is hiding the truth."

"Oh?"

The Baron stroked his beard to show his interest.

"We send troops to wipe out these cults and let the priests of the Holy See know the truth. We will be thanked by the Holy See, and then we can continue to do this business ourselves."

It is indeed a good thing to receive the gratitude of the Holy See.

Those cultists died in a more worthwhile way.

It's worth doing.
