142. Civilization in absence
Later, what Wei Haoran saw was roughly the same as what Wei Qingyun saw, countless pictures and sounds rushed over like rivers, and the past and future of the entire universe converged and separated in this void.
Wei Haoran generally understood Master's intentions.
In the first section of the message, he wanted to tell Wei Qingyun what happened there and what everything was going on, so that he could have a lesson in the future.
The information in the second section is to tell Wei Qingyun - more precisely, it is to teach Wei Qingyun a new skill, when encountering this kind of major collapse of the master's consciousness body, he can take the initiative to merge with the master's consciousness world and protect himself.
At the same time, tell Wei Qingyun the information of the black-clothed ninja.
The message in the third section is to tell Wei Qingyun that the scene in that mysterious void is not an illusion, but something that really happened. Perhaps, there is also the meaning of corroborating each other.
It seems that Wei Haoran's master and apprentice both wanted to go together, and they were both deeply attracted by the mysterious void world.
The second memory fragment is much simpler than that, it only takes less than twenty seconds, and the content of the picture is easy to understand, but if you think about it carefully, it is also more bizarre, weird, and full of suffocating oppression.
The main picture comes from that chaotic time and space, and when the fragments of time that past and future are chaotic and intertwined, Wei Haoran saw one of them.
He looked excited, he tried to grab the picture, but in vain, he grabbed it in the void with both hands, but it was like a mirror and a moon, and it was about to float away - Wei Haoran had to sacrifice part of his consciousness again, rubbed the picture, and then enlarged it as much as possible.
Wei Haoran looked at the huge picture in surprise - it seemed that the master cared very much about the content of the picture, even if there was a strand of hair on the ground, he also wanted Wei Qingyun to be able to see the details, discover it, and interpret the secret words of time and space hidden in it.
This plaza is paved with large black stone slabs, smooth as a mirror, emitting an obsidian-like light.
Around the square, a hexagonal towering pillar is erected at intervals, the surface is a peculiar metallic gray, and there is a heavy marble base at the bottom, which is magnificent and majestic, and the higher you go, the more sharp and slender it becomes, and it suddenly closes at the height that almost enters the clouds, presenting a round obtuse angle.
On each side of these hexagonal columns, dense symbols are engraved, neat and fine. Looks like some kind of cryptic text. The style of each giant pillar is obviously different, and it should be from a different nation or civilization.
Wei Qingyun counted, there are a total of eight eight sixty-four giant pillars, some of which are broken in the middle and fall to the ground in different directions.
There are also some huge columns, or surfaces, or edges, with gaps of different sizes formed by impact, and those damaged surfaces, which were originally neatly arranged with text symbols, are also regrettably missing.
The place didn't look peaceful, and some of the impacts were apparently caused by missiles exploding.
Under the giant pillars, above the square, there are tiny ant-like people, their arrangement is not neat, it seems a little messy, and when you look closely, you can determine that they are distributed around each giant pillar.
The number of people under each giant pillar varied, and there were more than 20 people, and the whole giant pillar went around in a circle. Some only have three or five people, and against the backdrop of the grand square and giant columns, they look very lonely and cold.
The people in the square can be roughly divided into two categories, and some of them seem to belong to the owners of the place, or at least the guardians of the place.
Most of them wore light gray cloaks that dragged to the ground long, with the edges of the hoods hanging down naturally. Although they could not be seen clearly, their upright posture was very solemn*.
These men were distributed under each of the great columns, facing the center of the square, and stood on a marble pedestal. They had no weapons in their hands and none on them, but they were certain to be the guardians of the place.
There are also others, who wear white cloaks with hoods naturally draped over their backs, revealing snow-white and curly shoulder-length hair, and their hair color and hairstyle are so neat and uniform that one has to suspect that they are wigs required for some kind of ritual, similar to those worn by judges and lawyers in European and American courts.
These people walked back and forth in the square, constantly shuttling back and forth among the groups of ragged worshippers. They walk slowly but steadily, leaning down from time to time, whispering to someone or patting someone on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.
When Wei Qingyun saw these white-robed people, the first thing he thought of was the teachers who took exams on the playground when he was in school, and those teachers who invigilated back and forth.
Perhaps, these white robes are really some kind of teacher, or more sacred than the concept of a teacher.
Whether it's the gray cloak or the white-robed one, they all seem to be the masters here.
Others are the worshippers mentioned above.
They are said to be worshippers because of their posture, and most of them sit cross-legged on the ground, respectful and obedient, apparently full of reverence for the place.
However, the clothes of these people are very chaotic, and they look very suspicious.
Or rather, to be frightening, a fear of the unknown and the unknown.
Because these confusions are not caused by the fact that they are wearing non-uniform clothing, but because of the sense of the times they dress.
It is not difficult to imagine this scene, just like the delegates from Asia, Europe, the United States and Africa at the United Nations Congress, who changed their uniform suits and put on their own national fashions. Those clothes obviously represent the stage of civilization they are in, some people are still living in the tribal era, and some people have already entered the era of smart wear.
This is the scene in this magnificent and eerie square in front of you.
Some, apparently from the age of space travel, dress cleanly and simply, with smooth and soft fabrics, and on their shoulders, belts, thighs, and even collars, they are equipped with a number of smart wearables that evoke the imagination of clothes that should have certain special features, such as super warmth and radiation protection.
There were about eighteen groups of similar people, each sitting around under different stone pillars, and each group of these people had a large number of people, all of them more than 20 people.
There were also two groups of people, who wore equipment that was quite poignant, and they wore nothing, just a piece of animal skin wrapped around their waists, a wooden stick in their hands, a stone tied to the top of a tanned rattan, and some ornaments made of shells and stones hanging around their necks.
Their numbers were small, only two or three people in each group, but there were quite a few characters on the stone pillars around them, and they were all covered with the entire six-sided stone pillars that towered into the sky.
Whew——Wei Qingyun sighed, the appearance of this group of Stone Age ancestors really made the theme and meaning of this grand gathering more confusing.
However, what caught his attention even more was another stone pillar, under which also stood the Grey Cloak Guardian, but there was no one around the stone pillar.
There is a civilization that is absent.
