Chapter 289: The Man Who Was Eaten by a Demon
:.
The big snake took Xilin a few people in, and after entering, the entrance of the cave was obviously much wider, and a big hole was dug out of some mountains to form a passage, even this big snake can crawl freely in it, which shows the size of its project
The most valuable thing is that Xilin can feel that this entire mountain range is only a combination of mechanization and nature, integrated with advanced technology on the basis of primitive formation, and there are countless mechanisms and hidden grids in it, if it is not for the big snake to bring them, but someone wants to break in, maybe the entire mountain range may not be able to find those hidden things, and it may also cause the explosion of the entire planet
This is the real heart of the whole planet
There was no mechanical lighting in the passage, only a glimmer of light cast through the cracks in the stones, and at last, Cillin saw a shining place, which was a long span, surrounded by an opening above the mountain wall, and the light cast down to illuminate the place quite brightly
What caught the eye was a large circular pool, the surface of the water reflected the light, and there was a floating hut on the pool, but the big snake did not allow Xilin and the others to approach the hut, and there were some small flowers on the grass next to the hut pool
It was warm
The three of them came down next to the pool and looked at the place
There are many murals on the surrounding mountain walls, which have been specially treated to prevent rain from corroding, allowing these murals to be preserved here forever
Very simple strokes, with some childish feelings, and then slowly, the strokes mature, smooth, and fine, like a person's record from childhood
In those simple graffiti-like murals, Xilin thinks it is about this big snake, and there is a simple figure sketch with a thin curved line wrapped around the villain's arm, which should be the original appearance of this big snake
The vast majority of the murals are depictions of a man and a snake, with the villain throwing the snake on top of his head, twisting the snake's tail in a circle, and giving the snake fruit to eat, only to get stuck, and it looks like a line tied in a knot......
Three light screens popped up, and Fei Dao Xilin said that in front of the person, there was no one in front of him, and there was a light screen with some pictures and text records displayed on it
The light screen flickered, and the rectangular light frame covered the three of Xilin, and the three people wrapped in this rectangular light mask would see a projection, as if they were in it, and the light screen in front of them was like a navigator, where they were going, what they were going to understand, they would be analyzed for them
Xilin first selected a button under the root directory, which is about the origin part of the "black viper" and this option is rarely paid attention to, generally people who see the origin part will first choose the general origin of the black viper, but Xilin chooses a story
After choosing, Xilin felt that the projection around him had changed, and then a different scene appeared, a little boy was sitting in the courtyard, very quiet, different from the others, and out of place with everything around him, no one else wanted to chat with him, and even if there were, they just went to say a few words, and then left with a bad face, because no matter what the people who came over, the little boy either looked at the person in silence or just replied to a few words that were not related, it is no wonder that such a strange situation was formed
This little boy is another core figure in the origin of the "Black Viper", the fourth son of Emperor Lansa thousands of years ago - Lansa. Freeman
From the text record in the light screen, Xilin learned a lot about Lansa. Freeman's affairs, Sirin was very interested in this man, and he even put all this about Lansa. Freeman has read all of the video records, and has only casually scanned the development of the "Black Viper" force, its combat power and its destructive power
Lansa. Freeman, the son of Emperor Lanza of that generation, has a very low sense of existence, and has even become a topic of discussion that many people are bored to gossip about in private, because Freeman is different from other children after he was born, he is silent and silent, and his gaze is very strange, even in front of his biological parents, he is almost always entertaining himself, like a person living in his own world
Later, Freeman raised a small pit with black markings that he saw in the garden, but in order to protect His Royal Highness, the Emperor Lansa had the little viper injected with a toxin-decomposing potion
So, when Freeman was seven years old, he made his first friend, who couldn't speak, couldn't laugh, and wasn't even a human Freeman named the viper "Black Viper"
Many of the pictures on the mountain wall that Cillin saw were paintings by Freeman, and it was indeed the same as Sillin expected, which were all from Lansa. Freeman's hand
Freeman didn't talk much to the others, but he talked a little more to the black viper, and perhaps it seemed to others that Freeman was talking to himself
The reason Sillin paid so much attention to Freeman was not entirely due to curiosity about the prince, who was only a two-year-old child in the first image
Freeman played with the hovering blocks, which were very popular in that era, because Freeman was more withdrawn, so many times Freeman was alone, staying in his small room, Freeman took out the hovering blocks and put together an airplane diagram
The work of the levitating blocks is very meticulous, enough for every child to use their imagination, and many children may put together some quirky shapes, or play with all the preferences of the time, but Freeman treats this as a task, and puts almost all his attention on the suspended blocks in front of him
He assembled similar to the airplane toy on the table next to him, and the placement and assembly of each suspended block seemed to be rehearsed in advance, without the slightest mistake, starting from the head of the plane, and then gradually completing the other parts, and soon an airplane-shaped block puzzle appeared
If it were other children, not to mention whether they could do such a job alone, they would definitely show off after they had completed such a project, winning the praise of their parents and the envy and jealousy of their peers, but Freeman did not have him to disrupt the figure with a wave of his hand, and then proceeded to a second assembly
It's just that this second assembly didn't look at the model, and it didn't start from the front of the plane, but from the fuselage
The second time was much shorter than the first, and it was much more perfect, even if it was just a suspended block, but the fit between each block was perfect
It's just the work of a two-year-old
Freeman then shuffled the finished work again and put it together again, but this time the result was a little different from the airplane toy
Cillin deliberately pulled out the actual picture of the fighter plane of that era and looked at the toys, there must be some simplified parts in the toys, but Freeman restored the simplified parts of these toys without seeing the real thing
It has to be said that Freeman is a genius
In the later images, as Freeman grows up, he no longer comes into contact with floating blocks, but with precision toys that he disassembles and assembles into jaw-dropping pieces
Lan Sahuang found out that he was a child with a low sense of existence and found a tutor to teach him, but the effect was very helpless, no matter how to teach, there must first be a process of communication between the tutor and the student, even if there is no communication as a student, listen to what the tutor says and do? But Freeman didn't, he was still the same, and he didn't seem to have anyone else in his world except for the little viper that was around his arm
So, the Lansa Emperor had no choice, so he let Freeman fiddle with it himself, and in a special activity area of the palace, Freeman provided all of Freeman's "toys" and some instructional videos
Gradually, Freeman faded out of sight, out of the conversation circle, and occasionally someone who remembered it would privately mention, "the child whose soul was eaten by the devil", and that's how Freeman was described by people
Later, Freeman didn't know what to do and blew up a building in the palace, and since then, Freeman has been classified as a dangerous person, and many people in the palace have tried to avoid Freeman, like a plague god, and think that he has a holiday with his eldest brother who was chosen as the heir back then, maybe he doesn't know that he has a holiday with his eldest brother, and he doesn't have that consciousness when he offends people, he just lives in his own world
Emperor Lanza had no choice, in order to train his eldest son as the heir, he had to send Freeman out, and Freeman chose a place in the star map, an unknown planet, which is the one where Xilin is now
After all, he is a prince, and Emperor Lanza has provided Freeman with a lot of things, as long as Freeman asks for it, he will provide it, perhaps this is the compensation of his father for this son who has no sense of existence
When Freeman was seventeen years old, a large-scale civil strife broke out in the Empire, and several high-ranking nobles rebelled, and for a time an uneasy environment permeated the Empire
The people of the royal family have to send guards to protect it, even if Freeman, the prince who was "kicked" out of the capital star field, on this day, a team of royal guards who were sent over landed on this planet, and by chance the captain of the escort team found the gun that Freeman threw next to him as a toy, this kind of gun is very similar to several ordinary firearms that the captain of the escort has seen, so the captain of the escort fired a shot when he was bored, and as a result, a large pit with a diameter of more than 100 meters was blasted out of that area, and there were sporadic fires around the pit, The soil and stones that have been immortalized for a long time do not seem to have been blown up like this, as if they were burned in an instant
The captain of the escort team held the gun with a crack in the tiger's mouth, just like the first time Sirin used the Purgatory Razer S to see such a result, the captain of the escort team trembled, I don't know if it was because of the cracking or because of the reason for being frightened
Later, the captain of the convoy found many weapons in Freeman that were much better than those of that period, so the captain of the convoy reported to the above, and it must be said that the news was very pleasantly surprised by the emperor in such a chaotic period
The main reason for turning the tide is not these improved weapons, but the birth of high-density reserve compressed energy and the discovery of steady-state enhancement potions, which are all from Freeman's hands, and are also a technological reform of far-reaching significance in the history of the Empire, but it is not recorded in such detail in the public history of the Empire, but it is mentioned that these technologies were discovered in the rebellion war, and there is no mention of Freeman himself
But after that time, the news still leaked out, so Freeman was so bad that the assassin broke through many obstacles, and finally had a chance to shoot Freeman, and at the critical moment, the viper with black markings blocked the bullet for Freeman, and the viper itself was broken into several pieces by the bullet, and if it hit Freeman, such a vicious bullet would definitely kill him directly
Freeman ignored the others, the assassin, or the captain's shouting of "dodge", and left with the broken viper and entered his room
Freeman's room was his lab, and when Freeman came out again, the broken viper was reconnected, but the appearance changed a lot
Cillin finally understood that the reason why the black viper was able to live for more than a thousand years and grow into what it is now is entirely due to Freeman
Xilin has seen Lansa. After all the images of Freeman, the prince, he finally understood what Gu Changan meant by "this kind of person" before
After understanding Freeman's ability, Emperor Lansa specially formed a group to put those children who were the same as Freeman, and Emperor Lansa asked Freeman to name the group, and Freeman just said one word - "Black Viper"
That was the prototype of the "black viper" organization
As time passed, the group grew larger and larger, and Emperor Lanza also became more and more aware of the abilities of these people who were different from ordinary people, and in many ways they even robbed the people of the Royal Academy of Sciences, and at the same time, such people also gained talents that one person did not have
It's like a sharp knife, which can use him as a weapon, but a careless mistake can also damage itself, and if it is obtained by the enemy, it is a serious danger, so the Lanza Emperor issued an order, and since then the "Black Viper" has been completely transferred to the shadows
People will forget some of the short-lived statements of that period, however, the technological achievements of the "Black Viper" have unwittingly spread to the various star fields of the Empire
This kind of people can't fit in in ordinary life, and they are always unconsciously rejected by people, even with the most advanced technology, it is impossible for them to change their deliberate central nervous system and development system, and they can't change their weird behavior and strange temper
They suffer from a severe lack of emotional contact with others, unaware that their bizarre behavior invites rejection from others, and some are frighteningly silent and unapproachable
However, their narrow self-world life makes them possess more impressive skills, or such extraordinary memory and computing skills, which are in stark contrast to their learning difficulties in other aspects, just like Amori and Neo, whom Xilin is familiar with
Some people are born with no knowledge of crying and laughing, but that doesn't mean they don't have feelings, just like Freeman, even when the viper was broken into several pieces by bullets, Freeman never cried, always that indifferent to everything, but Cillin believes that Freeman was sad when he saw the black viper broken into several pieces, reflecting that he was actually a little desperate, and the real emotion that was very painful was that he stayed in the laboratory for five days and nights until he snatched the snake's life back from the hands of death
Such people have their own unique frequency, but others can't get it
They are not sick people, they are not eccentrics, they are not people who have been devoured by demons, they are just different from us, although there will be flaws in this world, we should all believe that every flower blooms for its own reason
Looking at these technologies that have slowly infiltrated people's lives over the millennium, Xilin finally understood the true meaning of Gu Changan and Guan Feng's words, "Don't look at black vipers with the previous attitude".
I see
This is the source of Guan Feng and Gu Changan's strong emotions
Guan Feng may not be this kind of person, but Gu Changan must have been able to distinguish between them after seeing this
Why does Gu Changan always like to stay in a wheelchair even though his legs and feet are flexible, because only when he stays in a wheelchair can he feel steady, maybe in the eyes of others, this habit is a quirk, a quirk that doesn't make sense, but Gu Changan is such a person, sitting in a wheelchair, staying in a small or even dark room, so that his attention will be surprisingly concentrated
There is also Bai Ye, Bai Ye's example is a bit like the previous example recorded in the light screen, the person has two colors of pupils, and the world they see seems to be different from what ordinary people see, Xi Lin doesn't know what kind of world Bai Ye sees in his eyes, but Xi Lin finally understands the reason why Guan Feng asked Bai Ye to fight for this position
The "Black Viper" force is no longer the small group at the beginning, their strength and ability have been quite large, and the Lansa Emperor of the year hoped that this "knife" could finally protect the empire, and this knife was a gift brought to him by his son with a weak sense of existence
Therefore, the choice of the leader of the black viper wasted a lot of effort, and finally decided to choose three leaders to jointly manage this special group, and then gradually evolved into today's situation
If it wasn't for this big snake, it should have been a small viper, if it wasn't for this little viper who saved Freeman, there wouldn't be much technology behind it, and there wouldn't be the "Black Viper" organization
Every time they see this big viper, the people of the Lansa royal family will have inexplicable confidence, and the existence of this modified viper of the black viper is like ...... Faith, yes, it's like a belief, and if this faith is gone, the black viper will be hit hard
The three of them each went about their own business, and learned about this mysterious organization through their own doubts and the perspective from which they hoped to find the answers
The Serpent Black Viper was silently hovering beside it, it had been through too many generation of leadership candidates, and most of them could only make it say "yes" rather than "yes"
"Yes" means that the candidate who comes here can actually inherit the position of the leader of the Black Viper, but there are very few comments about the word "good".
The big viper's eyes looked at Bai Ye and Xilin's eyes were a little warm, especially Xilin, the viper was very satisfied with Xilin, he knew what everyone was looking at, and he could see this person's temperament from the items they had chosen
Few people would patiently see all of Freeman's images, and Cillin was one of them who identified with such a large viper
The gray cat rolled a few laps in the grass next to it before jumping on top of the viper, and lay there quietly squinting sleepily
"You're a good master," said the viper
The gray cat's ears flicked, "He's not my master, and I'm not a pet."
"Okay, not a pet," the viper said with a smile in his voice
"However, Cillin is really good...... No, let me tell you, this kid was cunning back then, and he actually made me sign an unequal treaty......"
The gray cat angrily told the big viper about Xilin's trick into signing an unequal treaty, a debt agreement, and so on, and the big viper listened quietly, but the pair of eyes that had always been cold and ruthless as the polar abyss gradually warmed up
The gray cat said that he was tired, so he jumped to the side of the pool and drank some water, and when he saw that Xilin was still standing there, he ran to the light mask where Xilin was, and took a pee by the way
After pulling it, the gray cat moved its nose, smiled and ran to the nose of the big viper and began to continue to criticize Xilin's bad deeds
There will also be wind here, and the wind will bring a warm temperature, which makes people feel an inexplicable quiet and warm, and the big viper likes to take it here, even when there is no sunshine, it is still as warm as the temperature felt back then
Finally, when the time came, the light mask receded, and the three of Xilin came back to their senses from that state one after another, and Xilin's eyes when he looked at the black viper also changed
However, Cillin was quickly drawn to a familiar stench
Even for cyborg cats, cat urine stinks
"Whew-p-h
The gray cat hooked its tail and flicked its ears, not bird Xilin, looking like Lao Tzu didn't know
There was a smile in the eyes of the great viper, and such a smile surprised Bai Ye and Hadar, the snake's eyes could be so easy-going
Why was Xilin able to make this big snake who didn't even sell the face of the Lansa royal family give such a look? Is it because of the cat? White Night and Hadar really don't understand
But now, after looking at the information on the light screen and learning a lot about the black viper, it is not the reason why Mao Xilin can get special treatment, they are waiting for the comment of the big viper
The big viper obviously knew the psychology of these two people, and said slowly: "This generation is quite good"
Hadar breathed a sigh of relief, the great snake had given him too much oppression, even when facing his grandfather
After receiving the evaluation of the big viper, the three of them knew that their inheritance was decided
A large light screen appeared not far above several people, and after the big viper clicked a few times with its tail, a small hole opened in the mountain wall, and a small flying robot flew out
"Get out, it will take you away, and when you get out of the mountains, there will be a flying machine parked there, and you will drive that flying machine away," the big viper said this, and then stopped looking at the three of them
The three of them looked at each other, saluted the viper, and left
"Let's go, goodbye, I'll see you again when I have a chance," said the gray cat, who raised his paw and patted the scales of the serpent at a certain temperature
Watching the gray cat jump down and catch up with its tail and jump on Xilin's shoulder, the big snake's eyelidless eyes carried an inexplicable emotion, some sadness, some emotion, and a sense of nostalgic happiness, as if recalling some memories
Sirin used to say that people blink when they laugh because they think of some happy things, but the big viper has no eyelids, it doesn't blink, some people only see the coldness in its eyes, and few people can see the emotions hidden deep in it through these chilling eyes
The three of them left along another passage with the little robot, which was not as big as it had been when they came, and it was for humans
The three of them didn't speak, and after reading those recorded things, they may not be the same now, but one thing is the same, the three of them have a significant change in their views on the power of the "Black Viper", even if they grew up in the "Black Viper" Hadar
Any one of the things they learned today would have shocked people for a long time, so the three of them are understandably behaving now
Xilin also found one thing when he looked at those records, that is, the rise of robots in the black viper, which was also a thousand years ago, but a lot of detailed things Xilin did not find here to see things to understand the robot, and he still had to find the person concerned
"Snorr, I suddenly remembered something," Cillin said
"What's the matter?" The gray cat asked lazily, just now he was only complaining to the big snake about Xilin, and he didn't sleep much
"Did you wash your paws after peeing?"
"......" The gray cat pulled back its ears, pretending not to hear
Not long after the three of Xilin left, a voice came from there, which was made by the big viper, but this sound was different from the hissing sound of ordinary snakes, this voice was like a wonderful carrier, with solemnity and purity, containing these indescribable emotions, so that people were moved after listening to it, and their consciousness would recall many things in the past that were deeply memorable
The viper raised its head and croaked, and crawled towards the hut in the pool
The modified viper has changed a lot over time, and it is able to speak, but the person it wants to talk to is long gone
There was a man in the hut, who lay there quietly, as if in a deep sleep, but his face was still clear, although he was no longer as young as he was, but he was asleep as he was then, as beautiful as a child.
