Volume 1 Beidu University Chapter 20 Mandala Flowers
Sure enough, as Shen Chen guessed, Chiyang City had already perished like the Tooth Pig Village, and now it was just a repetition of history, and Shen Chen was involved in it for some reason, witnessing the occurrence of this disaster.
These things also need an introduction, an introduction that connects the things that Shen Chen encountered, that is, the person who dreamed, just like a huge information network, there will always be a center.
If I'm not mistaken, it should be him!
The door of the Heroic Soul Temple creaked again, and someone came again, Shen Chen turned around and looked at the person with an expressionless face.
The man was tall, his face was vicissitudes, his beard was a little messy, and his hair could even see a little white hair, his eyes were no longer straightforward and innocent, some were just pain and a hint of relief.
"Thank you!"
The general's clothes were still the same tight-fitting cyan robes.
"Thank me for what? And what's going on with all this? β
Although Shen Chen guessed that all this was related to the general, the specific reason was still unclear.
"You can find here, you must have guessed that everything here is false, although it has happened, but it can be said that it is just a dream, a dream of my own."
"Your own dreams?"
"Well, because I didn't want to believe the fact that Chiyang City had perished, I fell into a dead loop under the action of external forces."
"What external force?"
"Mandala flower, a mutant flower, it grows on the bones of A-rank alien beasts, absorbs the unwillingness and resentment of alien beasts before their death, and grows into a kind of alien flower that specializes in nightmares as nutrients."
"Wait, what do you say? Are there really ghosts in this world? Can it still absorb its resentment? β
Shen Chen has been afraid of ghosts and the like since he was a child, as the saying goes, fear often comes from the unknown.
"You can't say that, you should know that as early as the ancient era, human beings discovered brain waves, and this kind of thing is driven by human thoughts, the strength of brain waves represents the strength of personal emotions, and sometimes these radio waves will change,
For example, some superpowers, perspective, predicting the future, etc., are a manifestation of brainwave mutation so that the brainwave frequency exceeds the limit, and the so-called ghosts, of course, are also some speculations, which is a natural phenomenon caused by the rapid change of brainwaves before some people die.
You must know that the whole earth is composed of a large magnetic field, and there are countless small magnetic fields in this large magnetic field, and human brain waves can affect these magnetic fields in some cases, causing these magnetic fields to change, and some so-called supernatural events occur.
For example, the Bermuda Triangle in the ancient era is an obvious example of magnetic field disorder, but it is too far away, and Bermuda has long disappeared after the earth's mutation.
And in the Arabian Desert in the Middle East, you know, there was once an SS-class beast killed here, and after the beast died, the brain waves affected the magnetic field there, causing the area to be full of mutations, what volleying rivers, upside-down peaks, etc.
And this mandala flower is just such a product. β
Shen Chen suddenly realized, aren't brain waves just a manifestation of mental power? Although he had heard of these places before, he didn't know much about them, but when he heard the general's explanation today, he suddenly felt that he was confused.
"And what are you?"
The general paused, sighed,
"Yes, I am its nourishment, in the past, my father felt wrong a few days before the alien beasts attacked the city, and the alien beasts around Chiyang City were more than one-third less than in the past, so he had already prepared, although Chiyang City was destroyed by the silver moon wolf, but, hehe, he was also seriously injured by the source crystal cannon secretly transferred by my father, and finally bled to death.
And the Silver Moon Wolf was angry at the end, and his brain waves affected the magnetic field here, causing the Nightmare Demon Flower Mandala to be born here. β
"Then how did you become the nourishment of the mandala flower?"
Shen Chen clearly felt that when he asked these words, the general's movements were sluggish for a moment, and his original gnashing of teeth turned into remorse and pain.
"I ......"
Shen Chen felt that the general didn't seem to want to recall this incident, and was just about to open his mouth so that he didn't have to explain. The general stretched out his hand to interrupt Shen Chen's words.
"Hey...... It's been twelve years, and it's not easy to wake up from this nightmare today, so it's okay to talk about it. β
After that, the general bypassed Shen Chen and knelt in front of the giant monument engraved with "The Spirit Seat of Chiyang City", kowtowed three times, knelt there, turned his back to Shen Chen and said,
"I, I'm a deserter! To TMD, he is a shameful deserter, a deserter who should be reviled by thousands of people and spurned by everyone! β
There was an obvious cry in the general's voice, Shen Chen pursed his lips, and he could feel the deep remorse and pain coming from the general's body.
"You also saw the things before, the difference is that there was no you that day, only a self-righteous me, I was young and vigorous at that time, and I did not obey my father's discipline, and I had just joined the army at that time and became a small soldier in front of the tent.
That day was the Yang Crisp Festival, Xiang'er asked me to meet on Chishui Lake, I didn't have your help at that time, after thinking about it again, I still didn't make up my mind to see Xiang'er, just looked at Xiang'er's boat from a distance on the food restaurant, thinking about her. β
The general's voice grew softer, but then there was a burst of gnashing of teeth,
"Soon after, the beast tide broke out, and in a panic, I fled from the food and ran back to the city lord's mansion to ask my father what had happened, and when I got home, I found that my father had gone to the city wall to confront the silver moon wolf,
Waiting for me in the City Lord's Mansion was my father's brother, his right and left hand, the real general in Chiyang City at that time, Zhang Shi.
Hehe, maybe I once dreamed of becoming the general of Chiyang City, so in my dream I was the general of Chiyang City, maybe this is the payment paid to me by the mandala flower.
General Zhang told me that my father had gone to the front, and he was here to assist in managing the people of the city and to calm the people's hearts. He told me that I was already a soldier, and that I should look like a soldier, and that the battlefield and the Horse Leather Shroud were the best destinations!
At that time, I was a stupid B, a big stupid B! I thought that a fool would go to death, so I ignored General Zhang's obstruction and ran all the way west, and came to a place that only Xiang'er and I knew.
That's where we found out together when we were kids, playing hide and seek, an abandoned cellar, we hid it many times without anyone finding it, and this became a secret base for us.
I thought that Xiang'er would also come and hide here, after all, it was so dangerous outside, but I was wrong, she didn't come, until the next day, I woke up from fear, and walked out of the cellar in a daze, and came to the street,
The streets were filled with the smell of blood, a post-apocalyptic scene, full of severed limbs, human and beasts, lifeless on the streets, not a single living person, except me, of course.
I walked down the street in fear, and gradually came to the edge of Chishui Lake, where I saw Xiang'er's boat again, and I was still naΓ―ve at that time, I thought that she should go, she could not die here.
Until I saw her personal maid and a red-beaked eagle dead on the boat, Qingqing's flesh and blood were already blurred, and her teeth that had been exposed in her gums were biting on the neck of the red-beaked eagle.
I trembled and walked onto the boat, carefully getting Qingqing's body off the body of the red-beaked eagle, but she hugged it too tightly, and I knew that she was protecting her young lady, after all, Xiang'er had been a sick body since she was a child.
I had to use my saber and red leaves to cut the body of the red beak carving, so as to ensure that Qingqing's flesh and blood body was not further damaged, until this time I still did not dare to take this step, open the curtain of the shipbuilding, I was afraid, I was afraid that I would not see a good incense, I was afraid, I was afraid to see her rotten face.
In the end, I still lifted the curtain of the boat, and the unexpected scene did not appear, Xiang'er still sat there quietly, dressed in blue elegant and delicate, her head was slightly lowered, and a large area of blood flowed out of her abdomen, and the blue clothes there were dyed red,
She plunged her hands into her stomach with a dagger, which I knew, which I gave to her at her coming-of-age ceremony, when I patted my chest and said that I wanted to marry her.
I hugged Xiang'er and cried, it turned out that she didn't leave, she was still waiting for me here, she would rather kill herself than leave no whole body like Qingqing, I knew that she wanted to leave me the best even in the end.
I buried Xiang'er and Qingqing next to Chishui like a walking corpse, and Chishui has truly become "Chishui", and after worshipping Xiang'er, I continued to walk towards the city wall, because my father was there, and I had to confirm his life and death, or rather, ...... Collect his body.
Far away, I noticed that there was a large pit in the place where it should have been a tall wall, and the pit was filled with smoke, and the edge of the pit was full of flesh and blood.
I walked closer, and after getting used to the darkness here, I found that there were many remains of iron and iron tools, and a huge wolf corpse, the wolf corpse was silver-white, the limbs were powerful, and a curved crescent moon could be seen above its eyebrows, and the wolf corpse raised its head and roared to the sky, and its expression was full of unwillingness.
I looked at all this in silence, I knew that my father was probably gone, I had seen this weapon in my father's study, it was a source crystal cannon that used source crystal as energy,
And its most powerful trick is self-detonation, yes is self-detonation, its power is comparable to a small atomic bomb, the fly in the ointment is that it must be started by someone, and the moment it starts, it will explode, originally this is a defect, its inventor used this defect to create such a self-detonation device, he can not delay the time of its self-detonation.
And its inventor never thought that it would be used one day, after all, even if the power is great, it needs human lives to fill it, which is very inappropriate, and if you need to be powerful, you can use those higher-grade source crystal cannons, and there is no need to use this semi-finished product.
Unfortunately, all this happened, and at that time I began to hate myself, and I kept beating my head, questioning myself why I didn't go to meet Xiang'er, causing her to leave alone, and asking myself why I was greedy for life and afraid of death, so that the lives of the whole city were disregarded.
It was at this time that the mandala flower grew up after absorbing my negative emotions, it was born from the crescent moon in the center of the wolf's corpse's eyebrows, and it only had two young leaves and a purple flower at the beginning, it was so enchanting, as if it was a peerless enchantress.
At that moment I was attracted by its beauty, forgetting all the pain, that is, at that time, I really became its nourishment, it created illusions, let me keep repeating what happened this day, each time I would lose my previous memory, only when the last beast tide came, the bright moon was in the sky, I would briefly regain consciousness,
At that time, I knew that I had fallen into a dream, but I was not disgusted, because there I could still see my favorite Xiang'er, the most annoying father, and the dearest people of Poplar City, although every last mandala flower would absorb my regret and pain,
But I'm still very grateful for it, and when I was sober, I gradually built this ancestral hall, the "Heroic Soul Temple", in order to commemorate the dead people of Chiyang City,
Every time I wake up, after worshipping Xiang'er, I will kneel here and atone for my sins, and it has been twelve years. I even put my own spiritual position on it, because I felt that I should have died then, and now I am only living a cowardly body. β
