The second person who traveled through time and space and became a pig
Chapter 137 News and Bridge
"What's going on? Why is it so noisy?" A naked girl lying on the bed was woken up by the noise outside and complained. As her body moved, the other two girls beside her also woke me up.
Several people listened carefully to what the waiter outside said. The girl was also shocked and immediately ran to Kadwei, gently shaking Kadwei and said.
"Your Majesty, it seems that something big has happened. Wake up, wake up quickly." Katewei finally woke up after the girl kept shaking him.
"What's the matter? Although you are a beauty, if you don't tell me the reason today, I will skin you alive." Being woken up from a deep sleep, Kadewei was obviously not in a good mood. The girl, frightened by the roar, immediately knelt on the ground and whispered.
"Your Majesty, please listen to what the attendant outside says." The girl signaled Kaidwei to listen carefully to what was said outside.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there's urgent news from the border." Katewei heard the shouting outside and quickly sat up from the bed. Then several girls quickly put clothes on Katewei and went to the door to open it.
When the emperor's attendants saw the door open from the inside, they hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look into Kadwei's eyes, for fear that the emperor would be in a bad mood and chop off his heads.
"Tell me what happened quickly." Although Katewei was incompetent, he still took the war on the border seriously.
"Your Majesty, the messenger who has rushed back from the border is waiting to be received in the hall." The attendant was not clear about the details of the war, so he could only reply with one sentence.
"Take me to see him." Katewei's face was obviously not good. Although he had caused trouble last night, he obviously knew that it was not a good thing after hearing the urgent news from the border.
The attendant brought the emperor, followed by four maids, and hurried to the hall. They opened the curtain and saw a soldier standing in the hall. When he saw the emperor coming, he immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, may you be blessed with good health."
"Get up, and tell me, what happened?"
"Your Majesty, this morning, both the Dwarf Empire and the Holy Empire sent out their armies to attack us. It looks like they are serious this time. The Border Commander has organized the army to launch a defense. Please urgently dispatch troops to the border area to strengthen the defense. Otherwise, he said the border will not be able to hold out for a few days."
Listening to the words of His Highness' soldiers, Katewei felt dizzy and fell back two steps. The maid hurriedly helped him sit on the ground. He did not expect that the two empires would actually attack his country. He originally thought that they just wanted to scare him and then negotiate and extort some money. He did not expect that the two countries would actually attack him. It seems that they have big ambitions.
Tian Ye sat in the main seat in the Xincheng Lord's Mansion and looked at Nadal.
"Mr. Nadal, I wonder what brings you here this time?" Looking at Nadal, Tian Ye didn't intend to talk to him anymore and asked directly.
"I didn't expect that Lord Pig-Headed Man would be so straightforward. This time I came mainly to understand your situation."
"Oh, what do you know about my situation? Why do you know it?" Tian Ye was a little confused and didn't know what was going on.
"Don't you know? Torresnia Hyde and Thors have asked the Pope for permission to invite you to join the Temple of Light. I'm here to understand the situation and see if you have enough ability to join our Temple of Light."
Nadal has already done almost all of his research on Amano, and he knows that Amano is fully capable of joining the Temple of Light, so he is no longer hiding anything.
"Hahahahaha! Ha, this may be the best joke I have ever heard. No one asked me if I was willing to join you, but they came to test me. I have some friendship with Torresnia, Thors, and Hyde, but I didn't say I want to join your Temple of Light. Please go back, sir. For the sake of these three people, I will not bother with you." Tian Ye directly saw the guest off.
"What did you say? You have to know what your words mean now. Even if you want to join in the future, there is no such possibility."
Nadal never thought that Tian Ye would say such a thing. Although the Temple of Light is now in decline, ordinary people are still not qualified to join.
"I will be responsible for what I say, and you don't need to remind me. The Temple of Light actually sent people to monitor me, haha. This is not fair at all." After these words came out, Nadal immediately became furious.
"How dare you insult the Temple of Light? You must be responsible for what you said."
"Come and see off the guests"
Tian Ye didn't answer him at all, but just shouted. Lonka outside walked into the room and looked at Nadal with angry eyes.
Nadal wanted to get angry. With his strength as a fourth-level magician, he was a distinguished guest anywhere. He didn't expect to be driven out from Tian Ye. However, he remembered the scene where Tian Ye caught the fighting spirit with his bare hands. This guy's physical strength must be very strong. It was better not to suffer a loss, not to mention that he was on someone else's territory.
"Mr. Pig-Headed Man, I'm sure you will regret your decision today."
Nadal left a message and walked out of the manor.
"You are testing me. If I really had the power of the Magician Guild, that would be fine. But now that I have fallen, I should lower my profile. I really don't know my own weight."
Tian Ye hates this kind of people the most, no matter in the previous life or this life, if someone doesn't agree to let you investigate, you come to spy on them, which is very disrespectful to others.
Nadal came out of the Lingzhou Mansion in the new city angrily, looked back at this rather impressive mansion, and stomped his foot hard on the ground.
"Pig-headed man, just wait for me, I won't let you have it easy"
Although Nadal was the Pope's close attendant, he had never suffered such injustice. This pig-headed man had no knowledge of the ways of the world at all, and Nadal simply hated him.
After traveling for several days, the team from the Temple of Light that was heading to the Paektu Mountains finally arrived at the Paektu River, which borders the orcs. Although the weather was still cold, the snow on the road had melted a lot, revealing the dark land in some places.
As soon as the team arrived at the riverside, they were attracted by a black line on the river surface. A large number of workers were standing around the black line.
"Torsnia, what do you think they are doing? Why are they nailing wood into the water?" Hyde said to Torresnia, who was depressed all the way.
At this time, Torresnia was carrying a wooden box on his back, which contained Thors' ashes. He couldn't let Thors stay alone in the forest, he wanted to take him back to the imperial capital.
"It looks like they are building a bridge, otherwise why is it a straight line?" Torresnia was also very unsure. There has been no bridge on the Baitu River since ancient times. It was not for any other reason, but because the Baitu River was a thousand meters wide and the water flow was very turbulent, it was not suitable for building a bridge.
"It's impossible to build a bridge. The Baekdu River is so wide, how can we build a bridge? This?" I couldn't believe my ears when I heard Thors' words.
"Grandpas, if you have such questions, why don't you go over and ask? It looks like the team on the other side is Zhu Laoba's. I've seen that man before. He's a dog-headed man next to Zhu Laoba. His name seems to be Rig?" Anania said, pointing at Rig, who was directing the team to nail wood into the ice hole on the east bank of the Baekdu River.
"Well, it's time to rest today anyway, so let's just rest here. I'll go over and ask." Torresnia also became interested, because in their understanding, building a bridge across the Baitou River was simply impossible.
The dozens of ogre guards around Rig saw a group of people coming towards them and immediately picked up their spears to meet them.
"Who are you? This place has been restricted and you are not allowed to enter easily."
The dog-headed man explained. Normally, after the dog-headed man finished explaining, no one would go to this area, because the river is very large and people can cross anywhere. There is no need to cross here. This time the dog-headed man was disappointed. After he finished speaking, those people did not leave. One person actually walked out of the team, bowed and said.
"We are from the Temple of Light and have some connections with your lord. We just want to ask, what are you doing? What kind of project is being built?"
Rig was not far from here. Ever since he was sent by Tian Ye to repair the bridge, he had been a little unhappy. Repairing the bridge was not as enjoyable as following the Lord Priest. However, the Lord Priest also said that he would let him return to him after the bridge was repaired. Rig did not dare to go against the Lord Priest's wishes, so he worked hard to repair the bridge for the Lord. At the beginning, he did not think that the Lord's method would succeed, but the more he did it, the more he felt that the Lord's method was very clever.
A hole was made on the ice, and then a huge tree was inserted into the hole and nailed into the mud fiercely. This was done every few meters. Now the ice temple was about to melt, but its wooden stakes were also driven to the east bank of the river. Hearing someone talking behind him, Rui Ge turned around and saw that it was the magician from the Temple of Light. Rui Ge walked up to him directly.
"It's Mr. Torresnia. What business do you have with me this time?"
The dog-headed man Rig imitated the humans and bowed and said.
"Nothing, I just wanted to ask what you are doing?" Hyde said with a smile on his face.
"That's what I meant. Our high priest asked me to build a bridge over the Baitou River to facilitate exchanges between people on both sides, as well as transportation of goods and various trade exchanges." Rigg used almost all the words he had learned from Levin.
"Can we succeed in building a bridge in this place? The distance is nearly a thousand meters. Won't these small wooden stakes be washed away?"
Torresnia could hardly believe his eyes as he watched the straight rows of wooden stakes fixed on the river bank. The sun stretched into the distance, and each stake grew higher than the other until it reached the highest point in the center and then fell downward.
"I don't know about that. I'm also following the High Priest's method. But judging by the strength of the wooden piles, there shouldn't be any problem. Now the wooden piles in the entire river channel have basically been nailed. The piles extend more than ten meters to the shore to prevent the rise and fall of the river water. The next step is to connect wooden boards to the piles. This is also a huge project, but it is obviously much easier to do than nailing wooden piles."
"This wooden pile extends all the way to the other side? If this method is really a good idea, it not only solves the problem of water impact, but also can quickly build a wooden bridge. Your High Priest is really smart."
Looking at the wooden stakes in the ice holes, Torresnia, Hyde and Annania were all amazed. This method was not only simple but also very practical.
"Yes, the wooden piles have been extended over. We built them from the west bank to the east bank. The west bank has already started laying wooden planks on the bridge. The planks are laid horizontally first and then vertically. The vertical planks are filled up before the horizontal ones." Rig talked nonstop about this. He was reluctant to do it at first, but after doing it, he felt a sense of accomplishment.
"If this bridge is really completed, it can be used by pedestrians regardless of winter or summer."
When Hyde thought of this, he was suddenly shocked. If the river could be navigable in summer, then the river would no longer be an insurmountable barrier. The bridge was a strategic location, and both sides of the bridge were Tian Ye's territory. Tian Ye was the only passage connecting the Orc Empire and the Human Longwei Empire. Some people said that it could be ferried, but if there was a bridge, who would be willing to take the dangerous ferry? Not only was it dangerous, but getting on and off the boat was very troublesome, and the transportation of goods was extremely cumbersome.
"If you are interested, I can take you to have a look. I estimate that the wooden planks have now been laid to the middle of the entire Baekdu River. Before the river completely thaws, I think this bridge will be completely passable."
Rui Ge did not see the significance of the bridge, but resolutely introduced it to a few people with a smile.
"That's not necessary. We've been traveling for a whole day and are ready to take a rest. Thank you, Lord Rigo, for introducing this project to us." Torresnia bowed again. He didn't dare to underestimate the orcs now. He even respected the ogre in front of him.
"Oh, is that so? Then I won't disturb you. I'll go back to supervise. I think the work on the wooden piles will be basically completed before tonight." Rig said and returned to the supervisor's position.
"Grandpa, what do you think of this pig-headed man's brain? How could he think of such a method? If there is no such method, it would be impossible to build a bridge on this river bank." Anania glanced upwards, her eyes full of admiration.
"Do you remember the time when you were bickering with that pig-headed man? At that time, you looked down on him and thought he was dirty and smelled. Why are you praising him now?" Torresnia looked at his granddaughter, his expression became much better, and he even started to make a joke.
"Grandpa, why are you saying this? It's not that I didn't know it at the time. I thought he was just like the other pig-headed people. I didn't expect him to be so different." Anania has been a cheerful person since childhood, and he is not afraid to admit some of his wrong views.
