MTL - Pivot of the Sky-Chapter 3 The Syllogism of Formal Logic (Part One)

003. Syllogism of Formal Logic Theology (Part 1) ()

Fayol was so happy and proud that Rod-Dick rewarded the craftsman with thirty gold coins, each weighing one baht, in a heavy bag. And on the child's anvil were thirty silver coins, about the size of gold coins, each weighing only half a baht, worth only one and a half gold coins, and the rest belonged to him.

Fayol did not worry that Roddick would blame him. It is impossible for the noble Lord Dick to condescend to the dirty and simple miner's house and stand in front of the fire, and he can send him the clerk to visit him in person. Family honors. He had fulfilled his mission as Lord Dick had instructed him, and fortunately got the tears of the gods. Lord Dick will only surprise and even reward him. He will not pursue any trivial matters at all. He knows Lord Dick so well.

Fayol also saw the tears of the gods for the first time. He hadn't even heard of them before. Rod Dick told him that it looked like a pale golden, translucent **** stone. He saw it in Amon's house, and Got.

There was a smoky wine and the scorching of the fire in the house. Fayol did not want to stay too much for a moment. He got away with the tears of the gods. Fayol was also very curious about the symbol of the pity of the gods in the legend. He couldn't help but want to take a closer look at how magical it was in his hands. He even wanted to put it in his own wallet, but Of course he didn't dare, only respectfully and carefully holding the gold box holding the tears of the gods.

...

Fayol left, and after a while, Amon also left the house, and he went to find the old lunatic. Amon was a child with indescribable grievances, but he couldn't say anything to the drunk father. It was okay to listen to the madness of the old lunatic.

He stayed at the old lunatic's house for about half an hour, and then quietly went west of the town. To the west of Duke Town is a rolling hill with green and black strange rocks. Closer, there are not many grass slopes in the mountains where a small number of sheep can be stocked. It is very sinister to go further. The stones are not tall but weird, like the dense devil jungle, with bushes growing like messy hair.

This kind of shrub is only two people tall, but the branches are very hard. When cutting down, you need a good machete and axe. The charcoal burned with it is the best stove fuel when smelting iron embryos. This area is called the Black Fire Jungle, and it is on the road that Duke Town must pass to the city of Siya, and the post road of the city of Sya passes through here.

Except for the station roads where city-state soldiers are stationed every thirty miles, people rarely enter the depths of the Black Fire Jungle. Those weird and complicated shrubs and rocks can completely cover the sight in a short distance, and they seem to be full. The mysterious danger.

But the old lunatic told Amon that there was a cold spring in a hidden place in the black fire jungle, and the water was freezing and biting, but it could cleanse and purify the human body. Bathing in that cold spring for many years can make the body stronger and more responsive. However, you must bathe in the way that the old lunatic taught Amon, otherwise it will not only have no benefit, it will also be infiltrated by the cold air and leave a dark illness, which will be fatal if it happens.

The method taught whether it is possible not to hurt the body and learn to endure the bitter ice cold, all in Amon himself. Amon once asked what else is good for bathing in that cold spring? The old madman smiled and answered two words-sober.

Amon had wanted to take his alcoholic father to Hanquan to take a bath, but the old lunatic glared and said, "Do you want your father's life? He can't bear it, only you can go, don't tell others! "

So Amon went alone, every time in the middle of the moonlight. At the beginning, I really couldn't stand the chill that almost froze the person, but after each bath, sitting by the spring for a while, there was a heat. The overflowing of the whole body makes people feel very comfortable, and I want to moan comfortably. Amon likes this feeling. Whenever he is unhappy, he always comes to Hanquan.

And the cold spring water has another special feature, although the extremely cool can wash people very clean, even a trace of dust on the body will not be left.

...

Rod Dick was so excited and ecstatic that he really got the tears of the gods. How wise, wise and lucky! In the praise of his subordinates and servants such as Fayol, the glass of wine was a little bit floating. Rod-Dick had not dreamed of the goddess Isis directing him. This was made up by him, but now he couldn't help thinking that he really got the guidance and care of the goddess Isis in the deep.

When he got the tears of the gods, the first thing he did was kneeling down and praying, praising the great deities, and then rewarding Fayol with the three divine stones, and sending someone to give the mayor Dusty a generous gift. Why should we thank you, the mayor of Dashty must know.

Fayol did it according to his orders. When the tears of the gods just appeared, they were taken away on the spot, in the name of offering to the goddess Isis. This can save a lot of trouble, such important things can be mined. If it is submitted to the Syrian city-state in accordance with local regulations, it is difficult to obtain it again. Although it may not be possible to get proper threats as a Dick, it is not dare Guaranteed to get it.

Of course, there are also people in the Hati Kingdom who want the tears of the gods. Even in the Egyre Empire, the virgin candidates selected by the city-states are not only Aiko-Maria, which is itself a struggle for interests. But how can the humble miner who mines the tears of the gods refuses the noble will of Rod Dick and dedicates it to the goddess Isis, everything seems logical.

As for the mayor of Dusty, of course Rod Dick must compensate him well, and there is still work to be done in the future, and this friend cannot be lost. As for the miner who mined the **** stone, and what did he get? Rod Dick didn't bother anymore. He had asked Fayol to do business and generously gave thirty baht gold coins, and Fajol did it, which was enough.

The human heart is so wonderful. Not long ago Rod Dick was still complaining while drinking, and secretly prayed to the gods to ask the miners. Now that he really got the tears of the gods, he forgot the miner who had mined the tears of the gods, and he couldn't help thinking that he really received the care of the gods, and it was so devout to pray to the goddess Isis.

Rhodes-Dick did not leave the tears of the gods in his own hands, and immediately sent it to Gabriel. He was very clear that there were many people who wanted to compete for the tears of the gods. Recognition is the most important. He planned to leave Duke town immediately the next day. He didn't want any extraneous matters to happen. Gabriel unexpectedly told him that Echo-Maria was ill. He had to rest in this town for at least three days. The desert makes an arduous journey.

...

In the early morning of the next day, people in the town had just woke up, and the smoke was floating over the houses. People heard the bell of the temple of Mu Yun at the northern end of the town, which was a signal to convene the town's residents.

Surrounded by four servants, the mayor of Dashti, who was enjoying a hearty breakfast, was displeased to hear the bell. Who disturbed his comfortable leisure time? There are only two people in Duke Town who are qualified to ring the bell of the Mu Yun Temple. Dasty is the principal priest of the town and the high priest in the name of the Mu Yun Temple, but the priest is responsible for the specific affairs of the temple. But Rob Xiaoguo.

Xiao Gu is also the clerk of Duke Town and the Temple. He is responsible for writing and registration, recording the taxes paid by the townspeople every year, and the properties dedicated to the Temple. The clerk's status is higher than that of ordinary civilians, and can be counted as a lower noble. Xiao Gu is also a priest of the temple at the same time.

But don't underestimate a clerk, because he can read and write text, whether in Hati or Aju, usually only the nobles have the conditions to learn the text. Fayol-Judah, the chief clerk of Rod-Dick, can almost sit on an equal footing with the nobles of the Hati kingdom, such as the mayor of Dashty, although he is only an aide.

Duque is just a small town. It is not possible or necessary to have so many noble officials. The mayor of Dusty does not want too many people to share the power here, so the simpler the better. According to the city-state decree, the registrar is required, and the priest who presides over the temple affairs is also required. Then let Xiao Gu be a part-time person, and Dusty also knows that the city-lord of the Syrian city-state has a good impression on Xiao Gu, more precisely Said he had received Xiao Gu's bribe.

What is even more funny is that since the Temple of Horus was built in the town, in order to save manpower and centralize power, the mayor of Dashti is still the high priest of the temple, and the priest and clerk who presided over the specific affairs of the Temple of Horus are still Xiao. Goo.

...

When the mayor of Dusty changed his luxurious coat and took the servant to the last square in front of the Mu Yun Temple, people had already formed a large circle here. Amon and his father stood with their heads standing in the crowd. At the forefront of Xiao, Xiao Gu was facing the crowd on the high level of the temple.

People gave way to Dusty, and he shouted unhappyly as he walked: "Xiao Gu, why did you ring the bell early in the morning to call everyone? Lord Dick is still in the town, you are not afraid to disturb the distinguished Guest? "

Xiao Gu hurried down the steps and bowed to Dasty, saying, "Sir, Lord Lord, Lord, someone has desecrated our patron saint, the great Goddess Mu Yun." Then he lowered his voice and said, "Mayor, you Don't know yet, someone in the town has mined a legendary tear of the gods, but did not turn it in, and dedicated it to Lord Rod-Dick privately. You know, even if it is a contribution, it should be you or I……"

Dusty quickly interrupted his words in a low voice: "Xiao Gu, don't mention it! Lord Dick wants the tears of the gods, and he stays in town, can you and I stop them? But we It was not turned over to the city-state in accordance with regulations. Who will be responsible in case someone holds it down? The miners who mine it voluntarily contributed to the goddess Isis and testified by Lord Dick to save you and me trouble. Rest assured that Lord Dick ’s gift will be tonight It will not disappoint you when delivered to your house ... is there anything else? "

Xiao Gu murmured, and then nodded respectfully, "If you know, do as you say. But there is one more thing that you have to deal with, because someone violates the dignity of the gods ..."

The people in the square only saw Xiao Gu and Dastie whispering a few words, and then saw Xiao Gu turn around and raise his voice: "Amon, the miner's son, violated the shrine passed down from generation to generation in Duke Town, Without the grace and blessing of Goddess Mu Yun, I opened the mine nucleus and took out a **** stone without permission. I verified it last night and his father acknowledged it personally .... Dear Master Dashti has come, everyone thinks What should I do with him? "

Dusty frowned but didn't speak, and could only make a majestic look. He was very disgusted with Xiao Gu's sprouting at this time, but he couldn't stop it. Regarding the topic of blasphemy, everyone must be careful not to let Xiao Gu grasp his handle. Moreover, this is indeed the rule of Duke's past generations, and it involves the dignity of the patron saint. He thought to himself--this Xiaogu, what article do you want to borrow from this, is it for me?

Xiao Gu looked at Amon as he talked, like a cold hawk watching a trembling rabbit, even though Amon bit his lip and did not tremble—he had seen the child unpleasant. The duke town has a steady stream of divine stones, symbolizing endless wealth, but only four people in this town can write: Dasty, Xiao Gu, old lunatic Nietzsche and the child Amon.

Dusty only writes the clay tablet books used by Hati, Barron, and Assyria. This kind of text was first carved on the tablet with a knife, but Xiao Gu wrote two instruments, in addition to the book. Including the pen books used by the Aegi Empire, they were written on the scratch paper with a pen. These were taught by the old lunatic, but now, the old lunatic has also taught these two words to Amon.
