Live in this quirky projection village?
I did n’t think about it at all. Originally, we only wanted to collect some information. Of course, I thought it was too simple at first. Maybe it ’s a bit whimsical to get a USB flash drive for five minutes and get the task done, No matter how the situation develops, I have n’t thought of sleeping in the earth for a few nights, but the mysterious patriarch of the gods has already invited him, and for us, visually without violent means, To find out the truth, I am afraid it is really not a matter of a moment and a half.
"We will not stay too long, but thank you for the hospitality."
When I was thinking about how to get rid of it, when I went to other places in Oasis to see the situation, Onee-sama suddenly spoke up. Listening to this tone, it seems that I really plan to stay for a few days.
In the face of my puzzled eyes, my sister just blinked, beckoning her to think otherwise.
"Do you still want to go back to the flames?" The patriarch looked at her sister and asked calmly.
"We come from there." The sister answered ambiguously.
"I understand that people in Oasis will not go to Blazing Sky, but there is your home after all. How do you plan to go back? I did n’t see your big ship, it is said that people in Blazing Sky need to come to Oasis Only use a big boat, otherwise you will be stranded on the ground. "
The voice of the patriarch has not fallen, and the voice of Lily has been heard in the spiritual connection: "She lied! Her speech rate is not right!"
I did n’t see the meaning of the other party ’s lies at all. This gentle Pixie/Elf Old Lady tone was as usual, but Lily insisted that the other party did not tell the truth, and I can only believe that at least this black Loli is more reliable than outsiders.
Lily Na stopped for a few seconds before explaining: "She said that the people of Blazing Sky will be stranded in the oasis without a big ship. When they say this, there are signs of lying. On the one hand, the reason is that she is not speaking at the right speed. On the one hand, it is the gift of the Pope: even if it is a quality projection, she is thinking, as long as she is thinking, she can be classified as a pan-soul, which is controlled by the Pope. "
in other words, in fact, the patriarch knew that we would not be stranded in Oasis because of no transportation, so what is the point of her saying this? As soon as I raised this question, my sister passed on: "She may be guessing our identity, and there is a vague answer, and the way we come and leave the oasis may be related to this identity. She wants to know what we are. Something came down from the mantle. "
Can I tell this Old Lady that we actually have a seven-handed BYD with dozens of exhaust pipes and capable of Space jump and super-light speed cruising?
The people on the oasis star are very cautious. sometimes looks a bit neurotic, but sometimes looks a little too naive and easy to deceive. A group of us were entertained into the village that night, and there was a separate mushroom tree house. Living, it is said that this is dedicated to entertaining guests. In the Oasis Star, every settlement of Pixie/Elf will have a house dedicated to entertaining guests. This is because the tree Pixie/Elf likes to wander in the forest, and all the trees Pixie/Elf They all grew out of the ancestor vines, which made them very happy to entertain guests in the intimate at the same time, and gradually formed a custom, that is, to leave enough hospitality in any place.
Soon, the night is coming. It seems that the luminous clouds in the upper atmosphere ended the chemical reaction under the regulation of a certain system. The entire oasis star experienced the same night. This small core World has no day and night boundaries With concepts such as the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, we gathered in these mushroom tree houses where the hospitable tree Pixie/Elf was prepared to entertain guests, still discussing these strangely projected societies and their secrets. My sister pushed away each other earlier. The prepared fruit platter and other sweet-smelling dinners (unfortunately, all fruits), the reason is that people from the fiery flame are not used to the food of the Oasis star, we brought our own food, and now those fruit plates are still placed On the table, Shallow is studying them-and Della.
Xiao Bu Dian goddess your majesty seems to be quite interested in these inedible things. The latter ’s realistic texture and aroma have completely captured the small things that have always been mentally damaged. Della jumps around a pile of strangely shaped fruits, just like waiting for opportunities The attacking little beast occasionally shouts with a sharp and thin voice and then pounces on it-the result is only one, the mass projection can not bear this contradiction in an instant, and it becomes a light spot in midair, and Della thinks about this Not understandable.
little brat's mouth is chattering, like a frustrated kitten after the prey flies away. After several attempts, she finally lies on my shoulder and she is pretending to die.
Tavel and her research team are still at the point of gravitational balance. They have done a comprehensive inspection of the inner layer of the mantle and found something very interesting: the remains of some ancient equipment.
The huge composite material skeletons are deeply embedded in the semi-melted mantle, and the complex grooves show that they have been used to install some kind of huge machinery. These skeletons may have been used by the residents of Green Star when they transformed the earth ’s core. of.
If these equipments are not important, then something else is even more exciting: the reconnaissance probe found many dark pyramidal structures in the shallow mantle. These structures are the quality projection generators we have been searching for for a long time.
If you ca n’t find the answer from the “Indigenous Peoples” in Oasis, our only clue is to disassemble these quality projection generators. Although forcibly cracking the projection equipment may cause some damage to the organisms behind them, but after all Is a way.
"What are you doing outside of Oh??"
Shallow is not interested in our serious discussions. She has been lying in front of the window looking at the night scene outside, and at this moment suddenly cried.
The night of the projection World is not pure darkness. Although the trees Pixie/Elf do not seem to have such advanced electric lighting or other artificial lighting techniques, and there are not many lights in the small villages, but the huge mushroom umbrella handles can Under the night light, it emits a faint white light. The effect is the same as a street lamp. In this not-so-bright light, I see many trees Pixie/Elf gathered in the open space in the middle of the village-a large number, it should have accounted for only ten Half of the population of the small villages of several households.
The Pixie/Elfs are all neatly dressed as if they are about to go on a long journey. They stand silently on the open ground. The scene is quiet and weird. Everyone is motionless, and after observing it, I found one more thing: The expressions on all the trees Pixie/Elf's faces are indifferent.
Ca n’t see the leader, or even any expression on the face of Pixie/Elf. Under our puzzled gaze, they suddenly disappeared one by one in the air! Just ten seconds later, the square was empty, and half the villagers in the village disappeared out of thin air.
And we have n’t waited for us to go out to see the situation, and then there is a puzzling scene, where the villagers disappeared just now, and suddenly there are a lot of free light spots on the open space appeared, these light spots are flying together Then, after a while, they condensed into a human form and turned into another group of strange trees Pixie/Elf. Wearing the costumes of the villagers who disappeared just now, I secretly counted them and found that they even had the same number as the ones who just disappeared. The newly emerged villagers first looked around blankly, and the expression on their faces gradually came to life, and then they all smiled: this smile flickered, and then they returned to the expressionless expression, and then walked to the nearby one with ease. A tree house, as if it were their own home-but that is by no means their house! That is the villagers who just disappeared!
The vision lasted only a few minutes in total. Half of the village ’s tree Pixie/Elf evaporated like this Human World, and replaced with another bunch of strangers. After waiting for the outside to be silent again, I touched my arm shallowly: "A'Jun, it seems like a horror movie."
"The original person was replaced," Shandora returned to the table. "It seems that this projection World also has a way of operation that we do n’t know. Let ’s rest, let ’s talk about the situation tomorrow."
This night we slept really well, although the situation is a little weird, and we are deep in the center of the earth, but the first family ’s carelessness and lunglessness are effective in any situation. When the woven soft hammock woke up, it was already bright outside (the day on the oasis seemed to be about an hour shorter than on the Earth. This is what I found from the watch). Della crawled over and was lying on his face , Sleeping darkly, but fortunately I did n’t cough at night ...
The village is already lively. The trees Pixie/Elf are preparing for a day ’s life. Men and women bring tools for harvesting wild fruits and plan to go to the top of a newly mature bush nearby to gather food from the village in the next few days. This is According to the information heard from their conversations, everything is as usual, and every Pixie/Elf has a smile on his face for granted, and does not feel that there is anything wrong with his life.
But the one standing in front of them is clearly a stranger: the replaced tree Pixie/Elf does not even pretend to look!
We seem to be walking in an illusory illusion-okay, this is indeed an illusion, but I have been didn't expect here before, and I will eccentrically go here. After walking around the village for half a day, I finally found a person I know, yes The Pixie/Elf girl who had a deep impression before, Lue, is helping her village head dad to clean up some dried grass leaves. The fibers left after these grass leaves are completely dried are the most commonly used building materials for the trees Pixie/Elf. Seeing the guests coming, Lue immediately stood up and greeted happily here.
"Hello, did you still get used to sleeping last night? It must have been much colder than the blazing sky on the oasis," Shu Pixie/Elf girl said cheerfully, wiping the sweat with the back of her hand, "Today is a busy day, Collect food and prepare the straw rope to be used next year. "
"Oh," I looked around, "It seems that many strange faces of appeared are coming."
Following my intentional or unintentional prompt, Lue didn't realize it at all. She just glanced at the woman and the children who were busy in the open space, and then smiled and said, "No, probably many people didn't come out yesterday, you didn't I ’ve seen it and soon became familiar with it. There are not many people in the village. Everyone is kind. "
She has no idea that half of the people around her have been replaced!
"Go to the patriarch." Lin Xue suddenly whispered, took my arm and walked outside the village. Everyone didn't know what happened, so they had to keep up.
The chalet of the patriarch still stands quietly outside the village wall. Just now I was really worried that this little house disappeared like those villagers, or was replaced by something else. Fortunately, everything here As usual, including the friendly tree Pixie/Elf Old Lady inside, the other party let us into the house with a happy face: "Guests from afar, did you rest yesterday?"
Lin Xue stared closely at the other party ’s eyes, as if secrets were to be dug out of it. Old Lady had a surprised look on his face: "What ’s wrong? Is there something unsatisfactory?"
"You should be able to guess where we are from," Lin Xue said suddenly, "I just remembered one thing. In your legend, the ancestor made this oasis planet and put it in this place, Then the ancestors integrated themselves into the oasis, and each patriarch is the ancestor who came over periodically awakening, in other words, you are the only so-called 'ancestor' currently awake in this World, you have experienced the establishment of the oasis star ——You should know what the so-called flame sky means. ”
Old Lady ’s expression did n’t change, but just waited a few seconds before answering: "What about then?"
"So you know that the flaming sky is actually a mantle that has not been completely cooled. There is no living creature on the flaming sky. Behind it is thousands of kilometers of dark rock layers. There are only huge energy furnaces and control systems in the rock layers. Of course, there are also projection equipment, "Lin Xue leaned back on his chair, and his tone was not impatient." Yesterday we saw something that was very interesting: half of the residents in the village were replaced. You know what I said is What do you mean, can you explain the situation of what is this? Where did the villagers go? Or, more simply, what happened to everyone in this World, and why ... will they be brainwashed? "
The expression of the patriarch has not changed from beginning to end, at this moment just sighed: "Actually, I just need some time to confirm your identity, because we carry the most important mission, Oasis has experienced a few before At the second alarm, all the navigators were very nervous ... We, do n’t know what to do. When this responsibility is placed on our heads, we have just learned to operate these systems ... "
Lin Xue smiled triumphantly and squeezed eyes at me: "I already thought she knew a lot of secrets."
"We are from outside the surface," I think there is nothing to hide. After a day and night, I think this patriarch has also confirmed our identity, or at least confirmed that we are not hostile, "This planet It is a product of the Old Empire era. It has secluded equipment and signs of empire transformation. In addition, we have found hundreds of millions of dormant cabins in the mantle. If you have experienced the era of geocentric transformation, you must understand me. What are you talking about. "
The patriarch took a deep breath: "It is true, I know, but what does Old Empire mean?"
"Xiling Empire, the previous one," Shallow said straightforwardly, "Now is the new empire calendar, four years. Old Empire has disintegrated."
The patriarch seemed to be hit by an iron hammer, and there was an instant shock. There was a long time before he exclaimed: "Disintegration ... Disintegration? Empire? How is it possible? Then who do we give inheritance to!"
"Leave it to us," Shandora said undoubtedly, "This planet hides the secrets before the disintegration of Old Empire, and I am the only Emperor known to survive since the disintegration of Old Empire. My partner is ruler of the new empire. I think it ’s enough. Oh, it looks like you ’re confused, do n’t worry. We have time for you to sort out everything. This is a long story ... "
The disaster at the end of Old Empire, the period of sleep, tens of thousands of years, the establishment of a new empire, and a small part of the current state of the empire. The total number of these things is indeed a huge story-Della is written on it, written It was at least 4 million words. It took more than an hour for Shandora and her sister to explain these things roughly. They spoke very slowly, and they only picked up the straightforward part of the story, because we found one thing: Although the big patriarch in front of us She has experienced the Old Empire era and is also very clear about Xiling Empire, but she is very different from the normal imperial family, she seems to be confused, like a ... novice, can only say so, know Xiling Empire, but yes I do n’t know the details of the empire. When Shandora mentioned the former sky zone and Emperor, the other party interrupted several times. It ’s really puzzling to ask for details. Is it that the harsh generals at the end of Old Empire? Did they even scrutinize their families? At least they also need to do a good job in popularizing science popularization.
"This is really an unimaginable disaster, completely unimaginable," the patriarch did not speak for more than a minute after listening to this very long story. It took a long time to sigh, Lin Xue and Lily Na stared at each other ’s eyes, The two of them are still worried about each other's lies. "When we took over the mission, the empire was so powerful. Although we only saw a few things and thought it was incredible, but that powerful empire disappeared, the abyss ... … We also encountered an abyss, and the empire rescued the tree Pixie/Elf, and then a general ordered our entire family to assist in the Empire Army battle. The tree Pixie/Elf knew the story, we took the mission, but they gave us the first one The task is to save something. "
Shandora suddenly showed a clear look: "in other words, in fact, you have not been in contact with the empire for a long time?"
"Looking at your standards should be rather short-lived," the patriarch frowned. "We just got rid of the abyss disaster and received the order before completing the social reconstruction. At that time, everything was chaotic, Universe complete mess , The general told us that the end of World is coming, so the tree Pixie/Elf left his World. The planet was rebuilt during the abyss war. The technology we have mastered is not advanced enough. Empire Army helped us build this fortress, and then the church leads How should the staff manipulate the system, and then they left in a hurry. We were told that this is a rather long mission, and may not even end the day, but the tree Pixie/Elf does n’t care much about it, we were used to traveling and loneliness, just now It seems ... this journey is really too long.
