Chapter 302: Ligia [Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription]
Deng Ximei told Gu Jun a lot, "It was all taught to her by her parents", and probably thanks to this delicious meal, her mental state can still hold up.
However, due to the precautionary attitude towards the spirit child in the next life, her understanding of this organization is actually limited, such as the internal structure, personnel composition, etc., so she can't say. She still understands the part she is responsible for, the poetry and stories of the different worlds.
There were other spirit children, and she gave them a few names, but they all knew each other when they were children, and then they didn't have any contact.
However, she knew that they were still in the afterlife, because they had met at a great sacrifice five years ago, when they were not allowed to talk to each other, but only watched from a distance, so she did not know their state and current situation at that time.
It was a sacrifice to the banyan tree, an event like this that hadn't happened a few times in years, and that day there were a lot of people, a lot of those withered faces.
Gu Jun listened and thought that it should be one of the sacrifices that the next life would do in order to summon the Banyan Disease and open the passage of the two realms.
Deng Ximei also said that these spirit children attended the sacrifice as their own aliens......
It wasn't easy for her to talk about it in detail, she would talk about it for a while, take a break for a little food, and talk about it for a while.
"Lycia." This is her alien identity. Not Dr. Carlopp, who doesn't know much about Carlopp. Lygia was a young and beautiful woman with long black hair and dark eyes, and she was very learned and literate.
But Lygia became seriously ill and came to the end of her life, and on the verge of dying, Lycia wrote a poem, "Conqueror Worm".
Deng Ximei wrote the poem in its entirety, describing a tragedy called "Man", which is also the content of the cult video: a group of clown actors dressed as gods chase a vision on stage, and are finally eaten by a sudden appearance of blood-colored worms.
Gu Jun read a gloomy feeling from this poem, as if he was constantly struggling to move forward in the dark night, but he couldn't see the slightest ray of hope.
Maybe that's what Lycia is feeling.
Mortals are like those clown actors, who spend their lives chasing the vanity of the world, thinking that they have become gods and that they are in control of their own destiny. But in fact, no matter how much you chase it, mortals can't get the truth, and sudden diseases and disasters can destroy everything.
Just as those tycoons, big stars, and big people who died early for some reason are only material in tragedy, the conqueror worm is the protagonist.
However, death will also give mortals a glimpse of the truth that death can end the ordinary, and death is a kind of sublimation.
"Ordinary is not all vulgar." Gu Jun said seriously, remembering that Deng Ximei said that there was death that could make her leave, and there was a lot of gloom in her heart, and he encouraged: "When you are alive, you can live well, at least you can eat some delicious food." ”
"Lycia wants to live." Deng Ximei nodded softly, her eyes were a little bright.
Gu Jun understood what she meant, so he didn't say anything more, and instead asked what she meant by the sacrificial ceremony.
"The 'Conqueror Worm' is supposed to exist in the other world, and although this is a poem written by Lygia, it has a ritual power that can summon the Conqueror Worm to come. With it came the clouds of more deaths. ”
Gu Jun showed her the video image of the giant worm outside Liqi Zhai, Deng Ximei shook her head and said, it was not a conqueror worm, it might just be a worm cub.
"Among the visions I have seen...... "Deng Ximei occasionally sees visions, "the Conqueror Worm is as tall as a mountain." At first, the insect cubs appeared, and then the insect cubs were raised, and the way to raise them was to stage the tragedy of "Man", so that people had such a feeling: life is meaningless, human will is worthless, and death is the only truth. ”
Gu Jun frowned when he heard this, and her statement further confirmed his inference.
Although the cultists were devastated, they did not have the idea of shrinking down, but wanted to restore the dark situation they wanted by creating chaos.
"You said to stage "People"?" He asked, "Spread that video?" Or let giant insects devour people on the way? ”
"Nope." Deng Ximei pursed her lips, "Ligia's death, for those who admire her, even if they don't know her, they will feel very pity." ”
"You mean...... "Some possible images vaguely flashed in Gu Jun's mind, "Laisheng Company wants to attack public figures?" ”
Dying a person may not attract much attention, but if it's a celebrity, a very successful person with a lot of supporters......
If it's not just one celebrity who dies, but a lot of celebrities.
"It's possible." Deng Ximei nodded and said, "The actors on the stage are the most dazzling people." ”
In that case, it will really undermine the confidence of the people...... Gu Jun pondered and asked a lot of questions, in what way? Disease? How is it connected to the summoning ritual? How did you give nutrients to those insect cubs?
But Deng Ximei replied a little dazed, she understood this poem and not those.
Gu Jun knew that this was not surprising, he himself did not know much about the alien literati, and he also had limited knowledge of Langton and the Son of Doom.
Seeing that Deng Ximei's face was already pale, and the sparkle of her eyes had faded, he knew it was time to stop.
As for the psychic barrier techniques she knew, the other foreign poems, and the portraits of the spirit children and other faces she remembered, these were of course important, both to protect her and to protect the information, and to wait for her to recover some spirits tomorrow. Otherwise, a madman can't say anything.
The information that Deng Ximei brought now was enough for him to be busy this night.
Gu Jun then really didn't let her say anything, and after eating supper, she was taken back to the detention room by the operatives, and he went to the administrative building to make a report.
In order to strengthen his persuasiveness, he also said: "The Great Elder of Atal actually had a prophecy about this incident a long time ago, and gave me a sentence saying, 'The roses are thorny, but the fragrance of the flowers is wafting. I didn't understand it before, but now I do. ”
"Boy." Tong Ye turned around and grabbed Gu Jun and asked, "How many words did Attar say to you?" ”
"Many, some of them I can't think of for a while, Attar sealed them, and they won't emerge until the time comes."
When all this is done, it is already early in the morning.
The night sky was dark, and there were still many places in the base that were brightly lit, and Gu Jun walked alone on the way back to the dormitory building, not sleepy.
He looked at the darkness above his head, maybe, maybe this universe is controlled by an incomprehensible dark force, human beings are very ordinary, but human beings also have the ability to appreciate the night sky, such a night is really good.
I don't know how many quiet nights like this have been there recently.
