Chapter 35: "Mr.
Hongshang" -
When Ronald opened his eyes from the bench in the carriage.
The sun has not yet risen.
My hazy vision passed through the car window, and only a blue-white cloud became brighter on the horizon. The train beneath me was still speeding rhythmically on the railway.
Opposite him, Mr. Xingshang was still resting.
However, unlike last night when he slept with his clothes on, Nessos was wrapped in his coat at the moment.
Staring at his companions.
Ronald thought back to the Latin phrase Nessos had uttered before he jumped on the train last night.
"VERIENDO——yo——efcriuir——la——Hiftoria——dela——Anatomy!"
Literally translated, it means 'I saw the boundlessness of anatomy'.
Even more coincidentally, Ronald knew this sentence.
In other words, because of his job, he should know this sentence.
In the collection of the World Digital Library, there is a 104667kb book called "The Structure of the Human Body". The author was born in a doctor's family in Brussels under the rule of the Habsburg Netherlands.
—Andre Vesalius.
In sixteenth-century Europe, he was as famous as Copernicus, who insisted on the heliocentric theory, and was one of the two representatives of the scientific revolution during the Renaissance.
His most famous achievement is the creation of modern human anatomy.
In his great work "The Structure of the Human Body", the first sentence at the bottom of the 19-page table of contents is 'I saw the boundlessness of anatomy'.
Last night, Nessos burst out with superhuman abilities.
Ronald heard those words on his lips.
Based on what he saw since time travel, he boldly speculated that the book "The Structure of the Human Body" also existed in this world and was also an original-level magic book.
The mysterious school that Nassos belongs to.
It should be developed based on "The Structure of the Human Body"!
In his own hands, "The Divine Hammer of Rain and Mist" can avoid rain and control thunder, and "Divine Comedy - Hell Chapter" can activate the ability corresponding to the nine hells.
So what "The Structure of the Human Body" can bring should be abilities closely related to the human body.
This is also the reason why Nessus can show such amazing strength.
Thinking about the experience during this period, Ronald's curiosity became more and more intense.
What kind of connection exists between the two worlds to produce such a strange phenomenon?
"It's getting more and more interesting."
Subconsciously, Ronald sighed in a subtle way.
As a result, Nessus moved.
The coat-wrapped body turned outward, and he sat up.
"Well"
"Ronald, are you awake?"
Nassos said hello to Ronald while intertwining his fingers and stretching his waist.
Looking at his somewhat lazy companion, Ronald's eyes drifted to his hands.
Nessus, who was stretching his arms at the moment, couldn't tell that any of his arms couldn't move.
"Naissus"
"Is your hand okay?"
"Well, at least it can move normally."
Without further explanation, Nassus simply nodded in acknowledgement.
Immediately, Mr. Xingshang bent down and pulled out a wooden suitcase from under the chair, and gently placed it on the table between the two of them.
Click -
skillfully flipping the combination lock, Naissos opened the box and took out a piece of paper first, and handed it to Ronald.
"Take the ticket for this carriage."
"Remember, you can eat for free in the dining car at noon and evening."
"Yes."
Taking the piece of paper, Ronald could see the time and date on the ticket.
This is a ticket sold locally at the departure station three days before the departure of the Dongfeng steam train. With this ticket, you can take the train to the destination, Springs.
Immediately, Nessos took out another towel from the box and handed it over:
"I've been staying in the wild these days. Let's go to the other side of the carriage to wash up later."
"By the way, have you ever used toothpaste paste?"
While speaking, a metal hose and a wooden-handled toothbrush were placed in front of Ronald. He recognized at a glance that the so-called toothpaste paste was exactly the same as toothpaste on Earth.
"I know how to use it."
Ronald took the things Nassos handed him and looked at the suitcase curiously.
Because his back was turned to him, he couldn't see clearly what else was inside.
But it’s a towel and it’s toothpaste.
I always felt that this box had a subtle
snap -
a soft sound, and the box closed.
Nassos didn't give Ronald a chance to see what was inside. He locked the suitcase and stood up:
"Let's go and pack."
"Yeah."
Following Nassos, the two opened the car door and walked out. .
Perhaps because it was still early in the morning, although the oil lamps for night lighting in the luxury carriages had been turned off, no passengers were seen coming out to move around.
The train guards looked different from last night when they snuck in.
The young man was half leaning against the wall at the end of the train, looking at the carriage aisle casually.
Even when he saw Ronald and Nessus walking out, he didn't pay too much attention.
Walk through the carpeted aisles.
Ronald and the two came to the small cubicle connected to the water tank.
Although the area here is not large, there are two pools connected side by side, which can accommodate two people using it at the same time.
Crash -
Unscrew the water valve, and clear water flows down in front of you.
Ronald began to wash with the nostalgic toiletry set in his hand.
Due to the production process, the material used to make the toothbrush here is still animal bristles. The feeling of brushing the hard bristles in the mouth is not as comfortable as synthetic fibers. It is more comfortable next to him
.
Nassos, who bent down deeply to clean his teeth, showed no discomfort on his face.
Look at the way he nodded slightly.
It was quite enjoyable.
Wait -
suddenly, Ronald realized that there was something wrong with his companion.
Do you want to remind him?
The cleaning time didn't take long.
By the time the two of them took care of their appearance, the speed of the train had begun to slow down.
The original wilderness on both sides of the track has become cultivated fields.
The train was about to arrive at the station -
after packing the toiletries, Nessos threw everything directly into the trash can.
He patted his clothes with his hands, making his expression as solemn as possible.
Looking directly into Ronald's eyes, Mr. Hongshang stretched out his right hand:
"Ronald."
"I'm glad to meet you on this trip."
"."
Looking at the other person as well, Ronald remained silent. After a second, he grasped the palm in front of him.
"Me too."
"Then, goodbye."
"Goodbye."
The two hands shook heavily, and then their palms separated.
Without any further hesitation, Nessos turned and walked outside.
Not returning to the carriage.
This is the direction to leave this train.
"."
Looking at Naissos' back as he gradually left.
Ronald thought for a while, but before he left, he reminded him:
"Naissus, when you are brushing your teeth."
"You are bending too far!"
Hearing this reminder.
Mr. Hongshang's back visibly staggered, and then disappeared at the end of the carriage -
