The man who escaped from Haitang City

Having said that, Fei Lian didn't rush to reach out to touch the strangely colored thing in the vessel.

"Have you heard?" He smiled, "It doesn't seem to be Daheitian who wiped out the Boneshatter Star Legion."

The expression on Li Zeyu's face remained unchanged, and he said coldly: "I also know that Tannhauser's crown is not stolen, it is in his hands. But so what, it has nothing to do with me."

Fei Lian sighed: "But now you take Ashtel's blood and flesh and let me identify it..."

He glanced at the paused light screen again, the young man covered his face so that people couldn't see his true face clearly, only the brilliance in those eyes made people feel like facing mountains, seas and stars.

Fei Lian pondered for a moment, then took out a pair of gloves and put them on. He picked up the heavy container that was as clear as glass and crystal, and was about to open it, when Li Zeyu suddenly said, "Don't open it, just look at it like this. The things in it can only be supported by S-class." live."

Fei Lian was taken aback, but his expression remained calm: "So fierce?"

"It's not just fierce, but I got it out of the Chihonglong family and Rong Hongxue after exhausting all my connections and connections." Li Zeyu said, "After 10 minutes, the container's destruction device will activate, so You hurry up."

Fei Lian raised his eyebrows. Since he is not allowed to use it, he can only use mental power to identify it.

He stared at the container, grabbed the contents inside with his mental strength, then slowly tightened it, and touched it tentatively.

His hands froze suddenly.

Not only his hands, but his whole body seemed to be turned into a sculpture, and even his joints were motionless.

The stalemate lasted for nearly 5 full minutes, and it was impossible to know how many chaotic struggles flashed through his heart. In the end, Fei Lian let out a heavy and long breath, and at the same time slowly loosened his tight body. .

"...a long, long time ago, before electricity and steam were invented, and the text was still the image of a picture, and it was carved on the bronze stone wall," he stared at the small container, and spoke slowly, as if saying every word After thousands of times of screening, they were spit out one by one, "We call it Taikoo."

Li Zeyu listened quietly, without expressing any opinion on his gaffe.Anyone who knows him knows that he is the kind of person who is born with a lack of expression. He always looks like an old monk in meditation. What a strange and strange thing, but he couldn't tick off half an exclamation mark.

"People at that time still believed in gods, mountains, rivers, lakes, sun, moon and stars, and even strange people or things. They canonized godheads for all unexplainable things. The sky and the earth have not been separated for a long time, and they can use their spirit to communicate with the ghost and nature. So the profession of "witch" began to flourish. They used yarrow for divination and drew the shape of twin yin and yang fish on clay tablets, thinking that this could be compatible with Sensing ghosts and gods, exchanging fate and future with them."

Li Zeyu said: "Superstition."

"It actually exists," Fei Lian said, "The legend is not groundless. Otherwise, how do you explain the existence of spiritual power, how do you explain that human beings can change the temperature and humidity within a hundred square meters with a bottle of 30 mg alchemy potion?" , create a rain and snow out of thin air?"

"It's just that human beings in the ancient times are simpler and more simple than us who have explored the universe and gone through a long evolution...or ignorant and stubborn. The kind of people who only know one thing throughout their lives, so they only cling to this one thing all their lives. The spirit of things is terrible." Fei Lian said, "They try to use meditation to directly understand the fundamental properties of matter. You see, there is a philosophical school called ancient naive materialism. The ancient Greek scholar Heraclitus believed that The world is an eternal burning flame. The Five Elements in ancient China divided the five basic elements that make up all things into metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. In ancient India, it was water, fire, earth, and wind...Of course, we now know that these statements are all nonsense. Just one piece of air contains no less than eight kinds of miscellaneous gases, where did the water, fire, and earth wind come from?"

Fei Lian looked complicated, and said softly: "But what if they really used their spiritual power to extract the fundamental properties of matter—that is, elements?"

Li Zeyu frowned: "What do you mean? What does what you said have anything to do with what you are holding?"

"Use your brain, Li Zeyu," Fei Lian sighed, "What is an element? You can say that an element is every object that makes up a collection, or you can say that an element is the basis of all substances. Generally speaking, an element is a concept. , is the kind of thing that only exists in the text and theoretical meaning! Just like the Philosopher’s Stone that alchemists have pursued all their lives, it can make people immortal and turn everything into gold. Although the Philosopher’s Stone that supports it can live forever There are too few theoretical foundations for immortality. We still don’t know why it can make people immortal, but how can it turn stones into gold? Because it is a concept of gold, so everything it touches will be covered by the concept of gold !"

He took a breath, and continued: "My teacher has been working on this subject, and he has a guess that in the ancient times, the ancestors could actually use spiritual power to communicate such heaven-defying things as elements. Those who do this will become gods, and the rest of the ordinary people will write legends for them, sing them, and believe in them. For example, how did Moses divide the sea? Because he controlled the water element and made the concept of "water" It was divided into two from the middle, so the sea also opened the way for him. And since the ancient times, this method has been lost, so those Greeks who practiced theory, Chinese alchemists, Arabian gold distillers...all the alchemists who appeared later, What you are looking for is this method that was once lost."

Fei Lian shook his head and smiled wryly.

"Do you think that all alchemists throughout the ages are greedy for money and the gold? No, the power that dominates the world is the most coveted! Although my teacher doesn't want to admit it, I still have to say—"

He lowered his voice hoarsely: "Whoever gets this power will be the master of the world!"

Li Zeyu's unchanging expression for thousands of years finally changed.

"so……"

"So there is a ferocious and vicious concept in this thing. It is not the Philosopher's Stone, but it is a thousand times or ten thousand times deadlier than the Philosopher's Stone!" Fei Lian suddenly slammed the vessel violently on the ground. He landed on the table and made a loud noise, "Although it is still very faint and not strong enough, it is indeed the kind of absolute, inevitable, and indescribable thing. You shouldn't let me see it, you give it to me." I'm causing trouble, a lot of trouble."

Fei Lian raised his eyes, his eye sockets were red, but his face was pale, with sweat dripping all over his skin: "Li Zeyu, get out of here with this damn thing, no matter what you want to do, I will eliminate everything about today. For all records, you have never been here, and I have never seen you, and the favor I owe you will be wiped out from now on."

"This thing—" he pointed at the table, "I don't know what it is or where it came from."

Li Zeyu remained unmoved, still sitting upright like a mountain: "I thought this was the ultimate pursuit of all alchemists."

Fei Lian said: "It's a pity that my teacher and I are not the same kind of people. The ultimate he pursues is like a black hole. He insists that people fall into the hole with their whole body and mind, but after falling, will they be smashed to pieces or see a new world? Who knows? Do you know? Maybe I am the smartest apprentice of the teacher, but I am too smart and have too many worries and distractions, so I can’t make it to the end.”

"I also know that this person was received by the teacher before." He pointed at the masked young man's face, "whether the conceptual body is his own power or something he got, can't the teacher feel it? Of course you can. But did the teacher hear anything about it afterwards? No. As a student of the teacher, I keep pace with the teacher."

Li Zeyu looked at him for a while, then nodded slowly: "Okay, I understand. Today's matter, thank you."

Fei Lian wiped the sweat off his face: "It's been so many years, I still don't know you? Let me remind you again, Rong Hongxue is not such an easy person to fool. If you reach out to him, you must be prepared to be discovered." The plan. Maybe that lunatic has already found out and is waiting to take care of you."

"I know." Li Zeyu picked up the box, "Then I'll go first."

"Get out of here," Fei Lian said angrily, "It will be bad if I meet you."

·

On the starship on the return journey, Yi Zhen looked at the chessboard in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"If I were you, I'd go here." Rong Hongxue tossed the pieces in his hand, tapped lightly on the three-dimensional chessboard, with a kind smile on his face.

Yi Zhen was in a very bad mood: "I didn't ask you, go farther."

After a while, Yi Zhen asked Tai Ah furtively: "Should I really go there?"

[On the surface, placing your insect cavalry under the starship can indeed destroy the floating cannon of the starship, thereby seizing the air supremacy in the lower left corner,] Tai Ah said, [and after the next step, no matter how the opponent moves , both of your ground armed forces can advance from different directions and occupy the central fort.But after three steps, no matter how hard you struggle, his Orbital Star Destroyer has met the deployment requirements. Whether it is completely wiped out or not depends on his mood. ]

Yi Zhen closed his eyes, let out a long sigh, and threw the bug cavalry chess piece into the chess box.

"……what do you wish to ask?"

This is the agreement between him and Rong Hongxue.

Because Yi Zhen's cognition of the truth of the world is obviously clearer than him, and since Yi Zhen promised the Crimson Dragon Family to release the video without editing, it is equivalent to sounding the silent horn, declaring the full-scale war against the book piercer break out.Based on this alone, Yi Zhen didn't want to have a pig teammate, and he had to tell Rong Hongxue what he needed to say.

As for what to say, and to what extent, it will not cause the collapse of the world's plot-like the collapse of this preliminary competition, Yi Zhen is also hesitating.

In the end it was Tai Ah's suggestion, why not let Rong Hongxue ask it himself?Anyway, you don't know what he wants to ask, is it right? It's like resigning yourself to fate. Since you can't think of a choice, you might as well leave it to fate.

Yi Zhen thought about it, and then chose war chess from his favorite entertainment game, and made an agreement with Rong Hongxue.As long as he wins, he can answer a question about this world. Of course, if he loses, he will not be allowed to talk to him for three days.

Unexpectedly, after playing chess for three consecutive days, Yi Zhen couldn't win half of the game. If it was in a casino, he might lose ten of his underwear.

Rong Hongxue's expression was very restrained, the corners of his mouth were not raised as much as possible, and he just showed his good mood by turning the chess pieces around.

He coughed: "So...you have already answered the question about the protagonist, today I want to know, in the original script, do we have an opponent, or an enemy?"

Yi Zhen thought about it, and after winning for the first time, Rong Hongxue asked him, you said my guess was wrong, what was wrong?Or, are you also one of the protagonists of the script?

Yi Zhen replied yes, I am also one of the protagonists of the script.Then this guy's expression was very strange, he couldn't be called happy, he couldn't be called happy, but he was a little... smug?If there was a tail behind him, it would have turned up. Yi Zhen didn't understand what he was doing, so he had to leave him alone.

For the second question, Rong Hongxue asked him exactly what type of script this script was. Yi Zhen propped his forehead, pondered for a long time in silence, and finally said with a blank expression: "Hot blood...fighting."

Tai Ah: [Although I have no body, I have to tell you that I am shaking my head now. ]

When it came to the third question, Yi Zhen could finally answer it properly. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In the original script, we have no opponent."

"That is to say, now?" Rong Hongxue asked sharply.

When Yi really wanted to explain this problem to him, Rong Hongxue said, "Forget it, it's no surprise, the world will never lack that kind of idiot who thinks that killing the protagonist can make him a leader."

Yi Zhen looked at him, and suddenly asked: "You...don't you feel collapsed?"

Rong Hongxue asked with interest: "What collapsed?"

"It's just... this is a script, your life in the past few decades has been controlled by it, your childhood, your life experience... all of this is like Truman's world." Yi Zhen looked at him incomprehensibly, " But you are really calm, and you don't seem to react after knowing such a shocking truth."

Rong Hongxue pondered for a while, and said, "I told you before, why I won No.2 in the hegemony competition."

"Because you feel bored." Yi Zhen said.

"Yes, that's right, I feel bored." Rong Hongxue laughed, "You will find one thing, when you follow a certain line step by step, the result of this matter is already predetermined. For example To win the championship, such as Rong Qing's death - of course, whether the script says I will kill him or not, I will do it."

"When I realized this, there were many things that could not be changed. My mother died forever when I was 14 years old, died of starvation and organ failure, and I could never save her life." Rong Hong Xue said, "You have lost the most important one. No matter how many things you gain or destroy, it will be futile. So why can't you be a little more deviant and reckless? Anyway, you already have a hunch in your heart that I will definitely win , he will definitely die, I am the strongest, he is not as good as me..."

"I've been so crazy and careless for so many years, Xiao Zhen." Rong Hongxue lowered his head, and put the pieces scattered on the chessboard into the box one by one according to the faction, "Now we can know that there are people like me , I am not the only alien, that is enough. As for what is not collapsing... the sky is falling, can it smash the neuropathic brain circuit?"
