Chapter 69
◎ Licking 犼◎
No matter how huge the waves are on the sea, the sea is always quiet, as if time has stood still.
No one in the live broadcast room had ever seen such a scene. Lian Jiuan was floating quietly in front of the huge blue whale, and even the cautious action of touching it could be clearly felt.
The deep blue ocean and the huge black shadow formed a sharp contrast with the tiny but very strong white figure of Lian Jiu in front of it, which was even more shocking than in the movie.
This is a whale fall. It is not as shocking as imagined. It just falls silently and slowly into the deep sea.
But it makes everyone's soul tremble.
It's so uncomfortable, I feel like I'm suffocating.
【How can it be so touching?】
【Jiujiu really has always been by its side. 】
Sorry, my focus is a bit off. In such deep waters, how can you stay there for so long without wearing a wetsuit or any safety measures?
The experts behind had received the news and rushed over on another boat. Lian Jiu also floated to the surface silently and was pulled onto the boat by Hen Shui.
Jiang An took a dry towel and wrapped himself in it: "Don't be sad."
Lian Jiu looked at the sea water. The blue whale was so huge that even the process of falling to the bottom of the sea was so long. Now he could see it floating there quietly.
"I can't say I'm sad," Lian Jiu said softly, "I just suddenly feel so empty inside."
"Director!" The experts, dressed in diving suits, came over anxiously. "Can we go over now?"
"Um."
There were several splashing sounds, disturbing the calm sea surface.
Lian Jiu saw them swimming towards the dead blue whale impatiently. After decades of anticipation, this moment finally came.
As a follower, Ji Luo was also preparing to go into the water.
Lian Jiu suddenly asked, "Are you still broadcasting live? Let me say a few words."
"Here!" Ji Luo quickly pointed the camera at Lian Jiu.
The latter shook her head. She took the camera, pointed it at the starry sky, and slowly moved it. "Blue Whale asked me to tell you a secret."
【secret? 】
Lian Jiu looked at the twinkling stars in the sky and said, "It has lived for eighty years, seeing the same starry sky, the same moon, and the same sun every day. But it still looks forward to sunrise when the moon rises, and looks forward to the Milky Way when it sees the rising sun."
The camera then moves to the sea: "It watches the passing birds and boats, the fish swimming in the water and the seaweed and corals. It finds these things beautiful, and they are all secrets it has treasured, but has never shared with anyone."
"Just now, it told me this secret it had hidden for many years. Now I'm sharing it with everyone on its behalf," Lian Jiu said. "I hope that every day from now on, you will not only care about the whale falls, but also the magnificent loneliness they have experienced over the past few decades."
After finishing speaking, Lian Jiu returned the camera to Ji Luo, turned to Hen Shui and said, "Let's go back."
The next ocean is what it will be in the future.
Ji Luo went into the water with the camera, and couldn't help but look back and take a picture of Lian Jiu's back as he walked back.
He was wearing a towel and looked thin.
It reminds everyone of her in the sea. Even though she is so thin and weak, she is the bravest one around the blue whale.
[The grand loneliness makes my nose sore.]
[People only know and want to understand the last few decades of a whale's life, but no one thinks carefully about its entire life.]
[When I saw the scene where Jiujiu and the blue whale were in the water, I cried so hard.]
Since natural whale falls are extremely rare in the world, this live broadcast has attracted the attention of not only people across the country, but also overseas netizens.
In a short time, the topic of the natural whale fall of the super-large blue whale in Nanyu Mountain swept many headlines.
Even the name of the place Nanyu Mountain has become mysterious.
The human world has received many applications from foreign countries, wanting to participate in the research on whale falls, but they were all politely rejected.
For the first time, the leaders of the human world realized that the existence of the demon world might become unique and irreplaceable to their country.
It may even become a major boost to development in the future.
Thousands and tens of thousands of years ago, no one knew what kind of world could have given birth to these monsters. Now, they naturally cannot be wiped out. This is a symbol of prosperity and peace.
-
Although Si Lan came to the South China Sea, he also needed to go out to work every day. Naturally, a small office was opened for him in the municipal bureau here. The people in the human world felt that they were very considerate to the demon god.
The God was very disdainful of this and even felt that they were meddling in other people's business.
I was paddling in Nanyu Mountain and I was being dragged out to work? Going back and forth to eat was a waste of time.
But when I thought about how I had to save money and maintain my reputation at the same time, I had no choice but to go out with a sour face every day.
His complexion only looks better when he comes back to eat.
"The Standing Committee of the Demonic University?" Lian Jiu was surprised when he heard Si Lan say that he had held an online meeting in the human world today. "Is it proposed by the human world?"
"Yes." Si Lan already had a very detailed understanding of all these departments and agencies of the human race. "In the future, the number of monsters in the demon world will increase. It will be impossible to manage them relying solely on the Special Incident Handling Bureau in each place."
Now there are only four major demon realms, so this department is only available in four urban areas. But in the future, if the demons go out and go to other provinces and cities, they will face more and more trivial matters, and it will be very troublesome to run back and forth.
However, if we manage the demon world and the human world together now, there will still be many disadvantages based on the development of the demon world.
First of all, the human world is not familiar with the demon world, so naturally its power is not as great as that of the demon gods, and the demons do not trust the human world enough.
Therefore, it is better to separate them temporarily, and gradually standardize the management of all demon worlds according to the systems and departments of the human world.
Wait until the day when transsexuals can coexist openly and harmoniously, and then slowly merge the two worlds.
Lian Jiu realized that the human world had already made great concessions to the demon world and was gradually giving it trust.
Otherwise, after setting up a separate direct-controlled department for Si Lan, there would not be a need to establish the Standing Committee of the Demon World. If there is no trust, this major setback will only make the power of the demon world grow stronger and stronger.
Lian Jiu asked, "But they also have limitations, right?"
"Well, the highest power is still in their hands."
In fact, it is understandable. The development of the demon world is too backward now. Many demons are still illiterate. Apart from their own special features, they actually have no advantages. The concession made by the human world is already very big, so the progress of education must be accelerated.
According to the human world, it is nothing more than gathering all the demon gods together, formulating a set of laws and regulations for the demon world that are as complete as those in the human world, so that the demons can gradually develop the awareness of abiding by the law.
It's not about learning from humans, but about cultivating from the bottom of your heart to become a qualified demon citizen and gradually form a sense of the overall situation.
Lian Jiu thought this decision was okay: "Then do you agree?"
Si Lan glanced at her and said, "That depends on you."
"I?"
"The human world said they need you to be the chairman of the Monster Committee."
"..." Lian Jiu pointed at himself and asked in disbelief, "Me?"
She is just a kindergarten teacher. If she is lucky enough, she can become the principal of a kindergarten and achieve some small success.
Before, being a small director in the Municipal Bureau was already a great advantage, but now the human world has actively asked him to be the chairman of the Demon People Committee?
Lian Jiu, who knew full well what this position entailed, was stunned: "Why me?"
"They select people based on their abilities," Si Lan said, "and they think you're the most suitable."
Lin Qi touched his chin and said, "I guess the director has made great contributions in both Fuyu Mountain and Nanyu Mountain over the past period of time. His influence is already very great. Since they already have Si Lan to pressure them, they naturally want to use the director as their military advisor."
No matter who you are, you will be more willing to communicate and cooperate with people who have the right to speak.
Looking around, Lian Jiu is the only mysterious one in the demon world today.
Even though I have always been popular online, I rarely communicate directly with those people.
"I can't do it, I can't do it." Lian Jiu refused without thinking, "I don't even have a diploma, how can I become such a high-ranking official?"
Lin Qi: "If you're talking about diplomas, perhaps the first people in our demon world to get diplomas were the little demons in the big classes."
Lien Jiu:......
Kindergarten diploma?
Outrageous but reasonable.
Other monsters are either illiterate or, even if they can read, have never learned any human subject knowledge. They may even have difficulty answering the exam questions for the transition from primary school to junior high school.
But this did remind Lian Jiu: "You said before that you would discuss this matter with the human world, how is it going?"
"You can take the exam," Si Lan said. "Until the monster cubs grow up and get their first bachelor's degree or higher, all monsters in the monster world, as long as they are able and willing to take the exam, can participate in all the human exams every year. There will be a special examination hall, and the results can be used as nationally recognized unified examination results, and the same applies to diplomas."
The monster cubs are still in kindergarten now. It will take many years for them to get their bachelor's degrees.
At least before this, it was impossible to combine the management of the human world and the demon world.
After all, there will be many problems of uneven distribution of resources and knowledge.
Lian Jiu was so excited that he shook his hand and said, "Good comrade! Thanks to you!"
Otherwise, I really can only take the adult undergraduate exam.
Moreover, the monsters now have another way out, and they no longer have to do jobs without a diploma in vain.
Si Lan lowered his eyes and looked at his hand that was being held tightly. The tips of his ears turned slightly red, and his fingers were about to close and move.
I really misunderstood Bai Ze before. It turns out that being close to her is really addictive.
It seems that she will be happy if she can get some benefits from the human world in the future.
Then I will be happy too!
Lian Jiu was completely unaware of his mental activities and had other ideas.
Since there is this kind of exam, no matter whether you are a big demon or a small demon, you have to continue studying.
Nowadays, everyone watches videos to learn some social rules, but the knowledge part is still not good enough.
"I think we should start educating the great demons about literacy." Lian Jiu patted his hands and said earnestly, "It will be a bit hard for the great demons, because they still have to go to work, but without knowledge, they can't do it."
Si Lan tried to hold back again and again, but still couldn't help it.
His ears were stretched out again, and he looked very happy, as they were swaying slightly.
But he was restrained on the surface: "What literacy?"
Lian Jiu didn't care about so many things and said attentively: "Let's open a night school for becoming a demon, just like those tutorial books I bought you before, teaching you to recognize words, which is called learning. You can take exams and get a degree in the future. All the demons who want to learn can come. What do you think?"
Meeting her eyes, Si Lan's ears began to twitch again, and without thinking, he said, "I think you're right."
Su Caifeng, who was squatting on the side and eating melon seeds, narrowed his eyes and said, "His ears... are very strange."
Lin Qi grabbed a handful and nodded in agreement, "It looks familiar."
Hateful water flew over the two heads, lowered its head to grab the melon seeds from the bag, and said as it ate, the shells falling onto the Pixiu's face: "I know, puppies wag their tails like this when they are happy!"
Su Caifeng silently hid his melon seeds: "I understand."
"Lick the leopard."
