"After so many years, your uncle is also the first time to meet someone who can refine a spirit body into a soul slave. During that time, the people in the organization also found a rare Xuanmen in the Rongyuan Apartment, which was still a demolition area at that time. Therefore, we finally decided to make Chongjiang City the main area of activity. ”

Wu Xiaowu's mind was a little confused, "Wait a minute, auntie, go see that old policeman and build an apartment, these are basically things that happened after Senior Tang Chengyong's accident, I was still in my hometown at that time, it's quite godly, do you predict something, know that I will be admitted to the university in Chongjiang City?

Aunt Tang lowered her head and poured tea, and in that virtual quaint teapot, there seemed to be endless tea soup.

"He should have told you that he saw you for the first time at the Rongyuan Station in August, and he heard you say so much, and knew that you had already received the admission letter from the school here, so in the next two days, while you were drunk, he collected a slice of your soul, probably fate, your main spiritual energy happens to be yellow. ”

Wu Xiaowu thought about it for a long time, and finally sorted out the cause and effect in his heart, "What is the situation of that soul slave? Is it different from an ordinary spirit body? The matter of the old police officer, Brother Yong mentioned it to me before, and he only learned later that the red-clothed spirit body was actually a female student who was killed by Pang Lin before, and they are all our senior sisters!"

Aunt Tang told Wu Xiaowu that after Uncle Tang met the old police officer, he only used the function of the consciousness scepter to expel the red-clothed soul slave, but the old police officer finally failed to come to his senses. Because after the soul slave is integrated into the body of the living, every minute and every second affects the thinking and consciousness of the living, which is like a kind of devouring, and the final result of the possessed person is dementia and madness, and the heavy one is suicide.

Although the abilities of the soul slave are stronger than the average spirit body, the soul slave itself is also extremely miserable. Originally, as the souls of resentment, they didn't know the truth of the spirit world, but after being turned into soul slaves by Li Jingguang in some special way, their free consciousness was suppressed by Li Jingguang's consciousness, and since then they have completely become Li Jingguang's puppets.

Ordinary spirits, whether refined by soul refiners or people with special abilities from the Esoteric School, cause their spiritual energy to be separated, and the consciousness of the spirit body can return to the universe, but the spirit body that has been refined into a soul slave will not only have consciousness used by people, but also after a short period of slave life, the "structure" of consciousness itself will be disintegrated and disappear from then on.

"This is too vicious, isn't it? In those fantasy immortals, people's souls, primordial gods, and souls are scattered. Wu Xiaowu was a little afraid of Li Jingguang in his heart, "However, Uncle Tang told me before that consciousness is invisible, so how do you know that consciousness has been disintegrated?

"You come with me. Aunt Tang got up and walked to the opposite side of the exit where the two of them came in just now, next to another round door, after the door opened, the jade steps at the door led to another black ball house diagonally below.

Wu Xiaowu followed closely and arrived in the room below, the environment inside looked very sci-fi, as if he had entered a certain cabin of a spaceship. "Where is this?"

"The observation room, which is found in every spirit boat, can only be observed through the special equipment of the spirit department. In front of a semi-curved screen, Aunt Tang clicked on some icons on the console.

"Auntie, when are you free, take me for a good walk, don't you? I really like it here, I want to see more and learn more. "Since Wu Xiaowu entered the interior of the Spirit Boat, he only felt that his vision and eyes were not enough at all, and every part of the Spirit Boat was full of extremely mysterious and huge temptations for him.

I don't know why, whenever I encounter something happy, shocking, and moving, Wu Xiaowu always thinks of Deng Fei'er, and has a strong desire in my heart, hoping that she can also be by her side and share the experience together.

"Okay, I'll take you around more next time. ”

He subconsciously took out his mobile phone to check the time, although there was no other person's WeChat or phone number, but he was surprised to find that the mobile phone still had a signal in Lingzhou! When he put the mobile phone back, he noticed that the mobile phone was originally in the left pocket of his jeans, and the pants under the cloak on his body at this time had all turned into a silky "black fog" texture, but the position of the things had not changed.

Because of this surprised discovery, he took advantage of Aunt Tang's operation to take off the five-colored soul snail on his neck, as well as the boundary weapon on the keychain, and saw that they were all still there, but just like the mobile phone, there was a flowing filamentous black mist at the edge of the outline.

"Auntie, the boundary weapon and the soul snail can also be used in the spirit boat?"

The screen on Aunt Tang'er's side had lit up, and the blue brain icon of the young tower appeared on it. "Yes, you enter the Spirit Boat through the Xuanmen, which is itself an entity, and only a small part of the environmental facilities are virtual projections used to meet the needs of the senses and organs. These tools with functional particles can be used, but if they are pure consciousness projections in the space-time sphere, they cannot be used. ”

"It's so handsome! If there is a way to make the functions of these tools merge into one, and it would be even better to combine them into a convenient tool!" he said, but his eyes couldn't help but be attracted by the strange surroundings of the equipment, which he couldn't name or know what it was used for.

Aunt Tang seemed to be going to tell him something, but she stopped talking and asked him to come to the screen and stand still.

"Young Tower, please show the macroscopic model of the consciousness group in the universe. ”

With Aunt Tang's instructions, a vast outer space scene appeared on the screen, and the camera walked forward quickly with the vision of the two people, and when the surrounding celestial bodies that were rapidly crossing backwards turned into countless rays of light, the scene on the screen became a tunnel composed of lights, which made Wu Xiaowu a little dizzy.

Soon, a point of light in the middle of the tunnel gradually magnified, and after a dazzling flash, the entire observation room returned to the faint cold light environment when it first entered. A large "ocean of light" appeared on the screen - this was Wu Xiaowu's first impression when he saw the consciousness matrix and the consciousness structure group.

"These tens of billions of rays of light, which pass as fast as meteors, are called the 'mother body of consciousness', which is in a state of rest before the formation of the 'structure of consciousness', and these geometric bodies composed of twelve parent lines of consciousness are called the 'structure of consciousness', which is the essence of consciousness of all our living beings, and they are in a state of flux. Aunt Tang pointed to the sea of light on the screen and said.

Wu Xiaowu almost wondered if she was saying the opposite, obviously those single light straight lines, flying at a fleeting speed, were said by Aunt Tang to be in a static state. "Auntie, you're not wrong, are you? Why do I see the opposite of what you say?"

Aunt Tang smiled but didn't answer, and only said to Youta: "Youta, please show any one, a sample of consciousness structure, and a sample of consciousness matrix." ”

A geometry on the left side of the screen quickly zoomed in, and Wu Xiaowu saw clearly that this was an octahedron composed of twelve rays, and each magnified "edge", on its surface and inside, there were more subtle rays of light flowing rapidly!

Although this geometry, like a pyramidal frame with two bases together, is suspended there, its twelve edges of light, as well as a golden symbol inside, are in motion. Inside many of the geometric shapes in the sea of light that I saw just now, the shapes of the golden symbols are still different.

The right side of the screen shows the magnified consciousness matrix, just a fast passing light, after the capture and slow playback of the young tower, Wu Xiaowu found that the surface and interior of this light, there is no subtle flowing light.

"That's what our consciousness looks like, huh?"

"Yes, no matter how human science and technology develop, the observation and study of consciousness is like an impenetrable iron wall, and the end of science points here. This scientific barrier, arranged by the designers, is a bit like contempt for humanity. ”

"How did these individual matrix lines of consciousness form this geometry of consciousness?"

"Random collisions. The essence of the universe is the ocean of consciousness, those fast-flying, irregularity of the matrix of consciousness, long-term stationary state, as long as two of the matrix lines of consciousness, according to a certain angle of intersection, then they can form an angle between each other, the attraction to other surrounding matrix lines will be stronger;

After a long time and countless coincidences, a regular octahedral consciousness structure composed of twelve consciousness matrix threads can finally be formed, and the time required for this process can no longer be measured by our human time system, and from macro to micro, it is full of some kind of incomprehensible paradox;

After combining into a geometric body, each line of this consciousness structure is activated, and begins to attract five types of spiritual energy in the universe, regardless of the proportion of the five kinds of spiritual energy, the overall data reaches the critical value of saturation, it is equivalent to transforming into an initial spiritual body, which is completely in the natural laws of the universe, the consciousness and spirit formed by random collision are the most primitive. ”

Wu Xiaowu nodded and said: "Then I kind of understand, it means that the universe itself can form consciousness and spirit bodies, but it was later arranged and used by the five spirit agencies, and only then did it have the operating mechanism of the spirit world, and the initial consciousness and spirit body began to 'reincarnation' in countless recycling?"

"Yes, once the consciousness matrix forms a consciousness structure, it is equivalent to having the ability to think, so both life and death can think. After that, in the long process of recycling, it interacts with the earth's environment and the spiritual world, obtains the body or spiritual appearance, and further possesses limbs and organs to feel and understand the world of human beings and the world of the dead.

As a soul refiner, after refining the spiritual energy of the deceased soul, the invisible thing that returns to the universe is this regular octahedral consciousness structure, and they still have the opportunity to slowly absorb the spiritual energy over a long period of time and 'journey', or be observed by the soul envoys of the Spirit Department, and recycle it again according to certain data standards and workflows;

Some people in the Esoteric Sect can also refine spiritual energy, and the same is true, but they don't know these most basic principles. But if they are soul slaves, their existence time is as short as three or five years, and the longest is only ten years, because they were destroyed by people like Li Jingguang in some special way to destroy the corresponding laws between spiritual energy and consciousness, and their consciousness and spiritual energy are consumed by each other. ”

"What does it mean to be consumed, that in the end, maybe after a few years, they will disappear completely, with neither psionic nor conscious energy?"

Aunt Tang shook her head and asked Youta to show another demonstration scene, explaining to Wu Xiaowu with a model of change: "If the initial state of consciousness is this matrix line of consciousness, then the original state of spiritual energy is this ripple of energy. ”

Wu Xiaowu saw that in the dark space on the screen, there were countless small points of light of different colors falling from above, dripping on an invisible "plane", as if it was raining on the surface of the lake, forming ripples all over the water surface.

Nothing happens between the ripples of the "energy raindrops" of different colors, only they appear and dissipate quickly, while the ripples of the same color intersect and merge into a larger "energy raindrop" that continues to drip into the darkness below.

This cycle repeats itself, and finally forms five types of energy groups of different colors, and when it reaches saturation, it is attracted to the structure of consciousness.

"In this way, consciousness and psionic energy consume each other, in fact, it is to turn consciousness and psionic energy into the original state at the very beginning, so that the consciousness structure becomes the consciousness matrix line, and the energy mass of psionic energy becomes this 'energy droplet'?

Aunt Tang patted Wu Xiaowu's shoulder, "Yes, you are very smart." You must know that the combination of consciousness and psionic energy will take an extremely long time without the intervention of the soul envoy, and if it is disintegrated into the initial state of the two, and if you want to reorganize the consciousness structure in the universe, re-form the energy group, and make it attract each other, this process will take longer than the time it takes for a galaxy to form, develop, decay, and die, and it is no different from what you said about 'soul scattering'. ”

The semi-arc screen shows the consciousness and psionic energy simulation structure of a soul slave, the six vertices of the regular octahedron and the twelve consciousness matrix lines, all of which have changed from a complete state at the beginning to a mottled and fractured state little by little;

"In the consciousness structure of the soul slave, there doesn't seem to be that pattern?" Wu Xiaowu was very careful, and found that many of the consciousness structures shown just now, and the consciousness structure that was magnified in the end, in the center of the octahedron, there was something like a word and a pattern, but the soul slave's did not.

Aunt Tang asked Youta to show a comparison diagram, on the left is the consciousness structure of the soul slave without a central pattern, and on the right is any normal consciousness structure. And in the center of the octahedron on the right, there is a rotating golden symbol, with a hollow teardrop shape and a horizontal crescent moon shape on the top, and a reverse "factory" character below, with a skimming at the intersection point.

"The pattern in the middle of the consciousness structure is defined as a 'miracle' by the young tower, and we only know that the consciousness structure can attract spiritual energy, form a spirit body, produce thoughts and feelings, and further become a living body, with various emotions and thoughts, etc., all of which are due to the influence of 'miracles'. But there is much deeper knowledge behind it, and no one can find out. ”

Wu Xiaowu stepped forward and looked closely at the slow-spinning symbol, "What's the matter?

"This is deliberately left by the designer, whether it is the Five Great Spirit Bureau, the Young Tower, or the operating rules of our world, they all come from the arrangement of the designers. At the end of the most microcosm and essence, they left these symbolic traces with the color of civilization, which is more like a manifestation, a manifestation of their superiority and divinity. ”

Wu Xiaowu was silent, he felt a certain absurdity, a certain insignificance. "And what is the purpose of our existence?" he thought to himself, his thoughts further making him feel more hopeless.

"Okay, let's go out, everything that needs to be said has been told to you, the next step, we have to plan well and find an opportunity to meet Li Jingguang. Your uncle has been arranging these things synchronously for the past two days. ”

"Well, I listen to you and Uncle Tang, but Auntie, I still have some questions, that is, at the earliest, at the beginning, where did Uncle Tang know about the spiritual world, and who gave him the consciousness scepter you talked about?

Aunt Tang walked down the jade steps one step in front of her, and was silent for a while before saying, "Xiao Wu, you have to eat the rice one bite at a time." There's a reason why your uncle didn't tell you these things, and I can't tell you too soon. But don't worry, there is enough trust between you and your uncle, and he also has greater hope and sustenance for you. ”

Wu Xiaowu was behind her, and he couldn't see her expression, but he could hear from his tone that these questions of his own might have offended Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang'er.

"No problem! No matter what, thank you Auntie for showing me so much tonight and telling me these things. I was really a bit ...... before The frog at the bottom of the well. ”

Although he said this with a smile, his mood was much heavier than when he came.

He thought that as a life, with the same consciousness structure and spiritual energy combination law, Li Jingguang and Pang Lin were the same as a raccoon dog, even if they killed people, at least they had the ability to help the souls of those victims now. But Li Jingguang was so cruel that he didn't even let go of the souls of the dead, and after using them, he had to disintegrate their essence!

Where did such a person get those evil abilities, and what would his soul be? And everything Aunt Tang told him tonight, it seemed that behind it was a more complicated puzzle, waiting for him to discover the answer step by step.

What's even more lamentable is that above all these people and things, there are also legendary "designers", perhaps they are in some hidden place, peeking at these humble beings, and seeing that they are driven by their own ideas to do many things that they think are meaningful......

He felt so confused, like the fog that filled the darkness in front of him when he first entered the Spirit Boat more than an hour ago.
