The Emperor’s Daily Nitpicking - Chapter 54

[Article 54]

With a sound, he simply buckled the backpack upside down, and the oily paper bag wrapped in the jerky rolled to the ground.

Kevin unceremoniously peeled off the layer of greased paper, picked up a piece of meat, and swallowed it in three or two mouthfuls.

It took them half a day to climb the white-headed hill. They set off at dawn, and it was past noon when they reached the top of the mountain. Coupled with a lot of physical exertion, these old men were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs. .

The sun was mostly blocked by blue-black clouds, and only a dim light could be seen. The sky was dark and it looked like it might rain at any time.

The wind on the top of the mountain is dry and strong. The only advantage is that the flying insects are almost extinct, so there is no need to worry about being stung all over the body.

Kevin ate three meat strips in a row to make the base, and only slowed down when he was on the fourth, chewing and swallowing slowly.

Just when he had the last sip left, an eagle chirp came from the clouds and mist on the side, attracting Kevin’s attention.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw that the white eagle who had been sent to deliver the letter followed the eagle food he had spread all the way up to the top of the mountain, flapping its wings and stabbing into his arms.

Kevin: “…”

He doesn’t quite know how the palace has raised eagles in recent years, and why it’s inexplicably acting cute and silly, and he always throws a slap in the face.

The white eagle stretched out a thin leg very well, and shook the small metal cylinder tied to the leg.

Kevin simply shoved the last bit of jerky in his mouth and pulled out a rolled parchment from the small cylinder.

Before leaving, he made an agreement with Osvid. In order to facilitate the remote control of the palace, he would report the progress every time he took a step forward. It is best to indicate the location, route and method of entering the tomb.

Kevin was very lazy and felt that it was too much to explain in a sloppy way, so he came up with such a “pictorial method”, which he thought was simple and unrestrained, and it was clear at a glance.

As a result, Osvid’s reply was more clear at a glance. There was no picture on it, only two lines of scribbled words: Draw something filthy, unsightly, and scribble some nonsense and come back to break your dog’s legs. .

Kevin: “…”

No, what is dirty?

Still unsightly?

He stared at the emperor’s overly arrogant note for a long time, then sneered: It’s because people are far away from being able to beat him, right?

Who broke whose dog’s leg?

!

Without even thinking about it, Kevin took another piece of parchment paper from the kraft bag and quickly painted it – no painting?

Who cares about you…

He is still too lazy to describe the process in small words, but he drew a simpler and rougher white-headed hill in one stroke, painted a black dot on the top of the mountain, spent an arrow, and marked it succinctly and comprehensively. The word “hole” was followed by another line of approval: when you reach the top, go in through the hole.

This bastard is very ignorant of self-knowledge, and has no objective knowledge of his own style of painting. I wrote it and looked at it. I felt that there was no problem, so I rolled it up and stuffed it back into the small cylinder, and let Bai Ying continue to bring the news back. .

The white eagle ate enough eagle food, drank some water, rested his legs and walked away like an uncle.

Only Ben was holding a piece of jerky in his mouth and asked Kevin blankly, “What is that thing you painted just now?”

“The white-headed hill.”

Ignoring this bullshit for the moment, Ban tilted his head and said, “Then why did you draw a dot on the top of the mountain and say it’s a hole? There are holes on the top of the mountain? Why didn’t I see it just now?”

Kevin

waved his hand and said.

: “Behind that rock, don’t worry, we have to go from there in a while.”

Ben didn’t understand what he meant, and said “oh” with a normal face.

Twenty minutes later, when everyone gathered around the huge hole, Ban finally understood what “we have to go from there later”.

They have lived for so many years and have heard countless legends about Paektu Hill and Eternal Life Waterfall. Every time they think about it, they subconsciously hang the waterfall on the top of the mountain or halfway up the mountain.

And I never thought that the original waterfall can be embedded in the mountain.

Baekdu Hill not only looks so tall and bizarre on the outside, but it is also bizarre on the inside – because it is hollow.

There is a huge hole on the top of the mountain. If you look in from the edge of the hole, you can see the bottom all the way, like a natural deep well that grows on the ground.

The so-called Yongsheng Waterfall grows at the “bottom of the well”.

As for why the water flow at the bottom of the well is called a waterfall…

It is because there is a huge hole at the bottom of the well, and the hole is not very natural, because the edge is a layer of steps, spiraling towards the hole. , if not in
