Chapter 135: Secret Words
After being given an undercover mission, Nobita did not get childish excitement such as "thrill" and "pleasure". Instead, he felt a huge stone weigh down on his shoulder, weighing him down...... On the way back, he sat silently on the sea urchin spaceship, looking out through the sealed window, without saying a word.
There's not much more to say......
All the secrets of the universe were added to him, and the momentum was indescribably heavy, making Nobita feel like an ant falling into a millstone, and he could only run forward with all his might. With one negligence, the grinding disc will catch up and crush its own shell into powder.
Fortunately...... After returning to the airport of Setor Star, the person who came to pick him up was a familiar face after all, which made Nobita unconsciously relax a little.
————
"Master." Alain Se, who was already unfathomable in Nobita's eyes, actually knelt on his knees, lowered his head, and made an extremely standard salute to the visitor, and said solemnly, "It's been a long time...... How are you feeling lately? ”
As a robot, Alain Tse has a good understanding of human affairs, but his actual operation is a terrible mess. He didn't know how to greet him at all, and even when he faced his master, the greeting was just two sentences - "how is your body" and "have you eaten", which is even less complex than Siri, an iPhone on modern earth. To put it bluntly, some of the simple robot greetings on Kara have more greetings than him......
In this regard, his master has naturally been accustomed to it for a long time.
"Good, good, good. Sure enough, the body is to move, and if you don't move, it's easy to be lazy, and then you can't do it...... It's like rust. Yin Xi beat his waist and back, and the movements he made were no different from those of seventy or eighty people, but the smile on his face looked very young, and he had a sense of immediacy like an old naughty boy.
After meeting Hilda, Nobita also understood what was going on with the immortal species...... Half of the patriarchs in Yulian are immortals. The rules summarized by using them as samples can presumably be applied to other creatures: those with a lifespan of more than a hundred years, such as Hilda, are all extremely deep characters, with lifeless eyes, as if they have already lived enough, and if they don't have too much burden on their bodies, they can kill themselves immediately; The lifespan is in the range of thousands of years, such as Yin Xi and Lindsay, they have long adapted to the life of the immortal species, and they are no longer enslaved by the endless lifespan, and in turn can manipulate their own lives. At least in Nobita's opinion, Lindsay and Yoon Hee will not be bothered by the longevity of their lives, which can be regarded as entering the next big realm; The lifespan is in the billions of years...... For example, Ah Yi has lived as an old demon who is older than the old demon. No one can figure out what is going on in his heart, and his every action and every word is enough to be recorded in history.
Nobita even suspected that there was no reason why Ah Yi didn't know what Yin Xi knew, but he just chose to acquiesce......
By default, Lindsay and the forces of Chaos are colluding, and by default, the Universe is rotting from the roots.
Why? He didn't know.
……
After all, Alan Se and Yin Xi have been masters and apprentices for a period of time, and being able to be favored by Yin Xi is enough to show that his potential is immeasurable...... Over the years, the two have long been in touch with each other. After this greeting, Alain Se shook hands with Nobita very briefly, said "goodbye by fate", and left without looking back, which can be described as a clean exit.
For a while, in the snow-white airport, there were only two earthlings left.
“…… The last time I was here, it was Lindsay Garcia who sent me off, but this time it's you who pick me up. Nobita shrugged his shoulders a little sarcastically and said with a smile, "Can you make a bold guess - you won this wave of secret internal power contest?" ”
"As you can see, Yulian is not monolithic internally, and it is well known that I have a disagreement with Lindsay. Actually, I didn't want to pick you up at all, but he thought, I want him to make it impossible for him to do it...... After going back and forth, I'll pick you up. Yin Xi didn't mind, he shook the truth out with a big thorn, and walked towards the exit of the airport, his black-gold robe fluttering slowly in the cold wind, "First of all, Nobita...... As a patriarch, I would like to congratulate you. The task was done excellently. The interrogatories for the Kara Nebula have been uploaded to the Security Council, and they have decided to award you medals and ranks...... The award ceremony will take place in four hours, and when you are officially integrated into the Universe, the ship's boss will arrange for you to take you home. ”
"Really?!"
"Really, really, look at your unambitious appearance, you've only been away from home for a few days......" Yin Xi suddenly snorted, and his fairy face revealed a thick disdain, "There is such a saying in my country - good men are ambitious, which means that ambitious men should go to the four seas to explore and work hard, what is the matter of nesting at home like a snail?" ”
"I'm not like you guys...... After all this, it would be nice to let me go home, and I really don't want to get involved in anything else. He smiled self-deprecatingly and added, "But now it seems...... I can't help it, right? ”
"......" Yin Xi was suddenly silent for a while, he looked at Nobita, and then glanced up at the sky in the northwest direction, as if he understood something.
Immediately afterwards, I saw that the immortal's eyes were half-closed, his face was solemn, and he had words in his mouth, and the ten fingers of his left and right hands moved flexibly, pinching out a lotus second-hand seal. The surrounding air seemed to shake suddenly, and with a soft sound, wisps of light smoke came out from the feet of the two, and they flew up, curling Nana, condensing into a graceful lotus flower on their foreheads. There was a faint smell of sandalwood in the smoke, and Nobita couldn't open his eyes. The lotus flower pattern quickly dispersed...... Everything was business as usual, but Nobita's powerful beast instinct told him that this was not the case, that something had changed...... It's like a thin layer of sand.
"Okay, let's talk about it here, he can't hear me." The next moment, the playful look on Yin Xi's face suddenly subsided, "This time I'm going to Karaxing...... What did Hilda say to you? ”
"Wait." Nobita said with some trepidation, "...... Are you sure? So he can't hear it? We're physically close to him now! ”
"'Listening to everything' is just a passive ability, it won't be very strong, don't mess up with it yourself. The second-hand seal of the lotus flower I formed just now is enough to block all these outer paths. Yin Xi explained with some impatience, "Compared to this...... What did Hildar say to you? ”
Nobita repeated his encounter in Kara with a mixture of amazement, including Hilda's last terrible order.
“…… I don't recommend that you do it right away, because it's stupid. After listening to his retelling, Yin Xi said mercilessly, "You don't have a deep relationship with Yulian now, and it's hard for him to believe you when an idle person chooses a camp in such a panic...... But Lindsay may never trust you, he never trusts anyone. If you really want to break into the Eloca, you need to be mentally prepared to be spotted by Lindsay from the start......
He's a super confident pragmatist, even if you're a spy and he knows you're our spy, as long as you can, this guy will still accept you and ask you to do things for him. He has the confidence to control you, or anyone in the Universe...... Do you understand? A guy like you, who has zero experience in political struggle, can easily be used as a knife by him. ”
Nobita tilted his head slightly, took two large mouthfuls of the air of the Setol, and a smell of steel poured into his nostrils, which actually made him feel a little refreshed. At least, the planet is alive — the thunderous rumble and flashing blue-purple lights above the dome are like a man's breath.
"Actually, there's one thing I've always found weird." "According to you, Lindsay hasn't done anything yet, but both you and Hilda have predicted through some kind of 'prediction' that he will betray the Order in the future. So, does this prediction influence Lindsay's next move, causing his behavior to deviate from what you 'expected'?
You can't estimate what Lindsay thinks of you, and Lindsay can't estimate what you think of him and what he thinks of you...... Since the position itself is uncertain, communication may only reveal its own camp choice in advance, so it is also impossible. If this continues, wouldn't it be like in the novel, with an endless chain of suspicion thrown out one after another? ”
“…… Is the novel you referring to called "The Three-Body Problem"? ”
"Have you seen it?!"
"Why do you have such a tone? It's normal to see it, right...... I'm from Earth, and this book is written in my native language. Yin Xi smiled angrily, "But what you think is too simple...... From the beginning, there was no chain of suspicion. Because it's not necessary. ”
"What do you mean it's unnecessary?"
"The position is certain." Yin Xi said unhurriedly, "You should know that the Altanvi civilization's research on 'time' and 'cause and effect' is unparalleled. On the day of your arraignment, Ah Yi specially salvaged a bunch of 'time seedlings' from the river of time to prove your innocence to Lilulu. ”
"I remember that."
"For him, 'time' is something that can be observed from multiple dimensions, so the future is clearly visible, which is a fact recognized by the whole of Cosmonex...... I know, and Lindsay certainly does. Therefore, he was ready to be exposed from the beginning, but it is better to say that all his actions are based on the benchmark of 'will be seen by Ahme'. Speaking of this, Yin Xi paused slightly, and then gave Nobita the history of the development of Yulian, "As early as 150 million years ago, Altanvi sent countless seedlings to spread the knowledge of the mathematical system of advanced civilizations in the known universe. In the end, there were only two civilizations that succeeded in swallowing the 'Miao'...... It's Mecca Tobia and Eloka now! For Ah Yi, this was both an accident and an inevitability, and he expected the result from the beginning. ”
"Eh......" Ah Yi's image in Da Ambition's heart has become unpredictable.
"Don't just '......', little ghost, do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood." Nobita nodded quickly, "You mean, Ichi has been observing today's situation since then, but for some reason we don't know, he acquiesced to Lindsay's actions. Let him be bewitched by the forces of chaos at some point and then rebel. ”
"That's it." Yin Xi nodded approvingly.
"Yes...... Why? ”
"Which do you mean?"
"Now that we know what the future holds, can't we stop it from the beginning? The present, the past, and the future are clearly visible in Ah Yi's eyes, and he must have known about Lindsay's rebellion even before you. But why ......" Nobita seemed to realize that his volume was too loud, closed his mouth and looked around, but he didn't see half a figure in his field of vision before continuing, "...... Why hasn't Yulian taken action yet? Whether it's Ah Yi, Lindsay, or you, everyone doesn't seem to pierce this layer of window paper, but they both know each other's thoughts, and they maintain this ambiguous relationship on the surface, and at the same time let each other's forces infiltrate each other's camps......"
"That's weird, isn't it?"
……
"Alas......" Yin Xi sighed, raised his head, and looked at the city in the distance - this should be the time when the sun rises in the east, but the steel dome on the planet blocks most of the daylight, and only a few inches of light projected through the gaps can be seen. This Da Luo Jinxian narrowed his eyes and said a little lonely, "Little ghost, it's a pity, this is politics......"
