"Didn't I tell you before that I was copying books in the library? Then I recognized some of the words on it, but some of them are not very clear, and I can only recognize part of them."

Tia had finished reading it for the first time. Many of the words on the stone tablet were no longer legible. She didn't know whether they were deliberately erased by someone or because of the erosion of time and wind and frost.

"Sand and gravel, water and wasteland, fire reflects the sky. The chorus of xx, the annihilation of xx, only the starlight remains. The nightingale visits, watering the blooming of the xx flower, and the thorn bird sings: 'I am the same as you.'

Flesh and blood are not the eternal truth, only the soul is eternal... When the soul..."

Tia didn't continue translating. She felt that the following words were pointing to her absorbing power.

When the soul is taken away, everything disappears.

"Brother, the second paragraph is severely damaged, and there's a large blank space in the middle. The last few words are hard to read."

"It's okay. It's great that you can recognize this much." Joel rubbed Tia's head soothingly. "The first few sentences of the inscription should be about the goddess Kauflin's journey to godhood, but the last few sentences make it sound like the goddess is dying again and again. But the goddess is obviously immortal, so mentioning death shouldn't be so heavy."

Tia didn't say anything. She was indeed immortal in that illusion just now, but the repeated real deaths only increased her fear of these things.

"What do you think?" Joel thought that Tia might be able to interpret the story from a different perspective.

"I think the goddess is immortal, but she probably doesn't want to die over and over again, right?"

Tia didn't know why the horrible dream came back to her mind.

She had read Wilde's "The Nightingale and the Rose" before, and if she could match the last few lines, it would be that the nightingale's visit watered the blooming of the blood flower.

This corresponds to the legend that the thorn bird would stand in front of thorns and sing, allowing the thorns to pierce its body.

But in these two stories, both the Nightingale and the Thorn Birds voluntarily died. If we put the goddess Coughlin in their shoes, why did she die again and again?

The nightingale died for the boy, but the boy never cared about the nightingale. Who is the boy here?

The thorn birds found a thorn tree and finally landed on the tree and voluntarily died, just to sing the song of life. Who does the thorn tree refer to?

Tia suddenly felt like her head was being pricked by needles again. She squatted down in pain and hugged her head.

"Tia! Little Tia, what's wrong with you?"

While Joel was still thinking about the meaning of the inscription, he heard Tia groaning because of the pain in his head, and quickly turned his head to look at Tia.

His nasal cavity was irrigated with water again, his skin all over his body was burned by fire, his neck was tightly tightened by the branches, and he was so tired that he couldn't even squat.

Tia didn't know why all these sensations came at her at the same time, and she rolled on the ground in pain.

"Ah! Ahhh!"

Joel looked around vigilantly, "Who's making trouble in the dark? Come out?"

But nothing appeared around, and Tia suddenly seemed to faint. He hurried over to pick her up and find someone to help, but he didn't expect that he would faint the next second.

After Tia fainted, she came to the same forest again, but the difference from before was that this forest was full of elves that he had only seen once.

The elves all wore various hats or wreaths made of wild flowers, and flew back and forth in the air, flapping their wings.

Tia felt like a giant who had suddenly entered Lilliput. She looked around curiously. The trees around her were not just trees, but tree houses.

At a glance, you can see the exquisitely decorated rooms, small beds, and paintings decorated with flowers.

She walked inside curiously, and the elves were busy with their own things as if they couldn't see her.

She stretched out her hand to greet them, but saw an elf pass directly through her hand.

She immediately understood that she was now in a soul state and no one could see her.

But why bring her here suddenly?

She began to prick up her ears, listening to the conversations around her, trying to get information.

"Have you heard? We have a little girl here!"

"I heard about it, I heard about it, but it's at the team leader's house, and I don't dare go there."

"I just went over there, but the team leader chased me away. Now I don't dare to go over and take a look. I can only take a sneak peek. That girl is so cute."

"What good things can foreigners have? You'd better be careful!"

Tia listened casually for a while and inexplicably felt that this little girl must be Natalie Coughlin.

After she had a definite goal, she began to look for the legendary village chief's room.

It was called the village chief's room, but in fact, the village chief's room was only slightly bigger than others, so the little girl was still outside, but she was sitting on a tree stump.

"You came here for the tree of life?"

"Yes, God guided me here to take the tree of life." The girl still looked a little confused, like a mother directing her child to do something, and she would do it obediently without knowing why.

The patriarch hung his head helplessly. He knew that this day would come sooner or later. They were just guarding the Tree of Life, not the owners of it.

But the tree of life brought them so many things, and the fruit of the tree of life could not be stored for too long, so it was all given to the tribesmen to eat.

Most of the tribesmen who ate the fruit of the tree of life no longer got sick, were not as fragile as before, and their lifespans were extended to a certain extent.

Moreover, due to the existence of the Tree of Life, the medical skills in the tribe have gradually been neglected. If the Tree of Life is gone now, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for them.

"But could you please give us a little more time?"

"How long is a little time?" The girl was a little confused. She couldn't stay here for long. She had other things to do.

"This..." The patriarch was embarrassed for a moment. This was just an excuse he came up with, but he didn't know how long it would take.

"You don't know it yourself?" The girl didn't understand. "Why can't you say it?"

"I need to discuss this with the others." The patriarch wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "I beg the angel of God to forgive me."

"Then when are you going to discuss it with them?" the girl asked further.

"Tomorrow..." The team leader just said it when he saw the girl frowning, so he had to change his words, "Tomorrow morning?"
