Chapter 265: Lake Spirit: Nami
The pair of eyes that have lost their luster are numbly staring at the comer, and the brick houses are intertwined one by one, as if playing an old movie from the sixties and seventies of the last century in front of the visitor. Sickness, poverty, and cold, it seems that the inhabitants of this place have not been able to get rid of these three evil gods, and "they" alternate with each other, forming a vicious circle. With about forty-three hours left before the second trial meeting, Qian Hanxing came to an urban village in the city, commonly known as a "slum".
Walking along a path full of clothes for drying, the deeper you go, the more you find that the light is not sufficient. The tall buildings that have been erected around it have inexorably evolved into Attack Titans, obscuring the sky and darkening the place, both physically and psychologically.
The children of the village peeked out of the missing window, their eyes full of curiosity about outsiders. Qian Hanxing was wearing a handmade Armani trench coat, which was obviously out of step with the main tone here. The "shampoo room" with a red sign on the side of the road no longer accepts customers, and they are obviously frightened by the old money who is very angry, they are actually very timid, and they are fighting for their lives to make money. They may not have a good look, but their skinny bodies due to malnutrition are also the favorite of the poor...... Day and night.
Qian Hanxing walked all the way to the innermost layer, without any intention of exploring the surrounding customs and customs. This time, he wanted to find someone, someone who could be a substitute for jihad on his side.
If the child's curiosity stems from not understanding outsiders, then the person he is looking for has a curiosity that is enough to encompass the universe, and she doubts everything.
Finally, light shines through the cracks in the building, and the dilapidated house with only one window is the only school in the village. And it was from here that the woman who was extremely curious walked out of the city and ran back.
Along the way, the gushing sound of lectures came to Hanxing's ears along the narrow wind, probably talking about the knowledge of the "Great Flood", and the origin of the sound was in this private house.
"The Bible says: 'When Jehovah saw the great sin of man on earth, he declared that he would use a flood to destroy every living creature of flesh and breath on the earth, and every living thing on earth would not die!' ”
Her voice is crisp, her Mandarin pronunciation is extremely accurate, and she is clearly well-educated and knowledgeable about Bible stories.
God commanded the righteous Noah to build a giant ark and put at least one pair of every creature in the world into the ark. Then there was a torrential rain from the sky, which kept the water level rising. The flood came and wiped out all the creatures on the earth, and only those in Noah's Ark were saved. In the legend of our country, the cause of the great flood was a war between the water god Gonggong and the fire god Zhurong, and the Gonggong broke the big pillar that supported the sky in a fit of rage, so that the sky collapsed and the flood was monstrous. ”
She can also compare China and the West, and if there is a good academic research environment, she must be able to make some achievements.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Inner Chapter of the Sea records: 'The flood is monstrous, and the cangs steal the soil to annihilate the flood.'" This sentence was said by Qian Hanxing while walking towards the school, which is quite a kind of meaning of walking on a song.
Qian Hanxing bypassed a few dirty children, came to her and smiled slightly, and said: "Huainanzi Lan Yin Xun records: 'When looking at ancient times, the four poles are wasted, Kyushu is split, the sky is not covered, the earth is not circumferential, the fire is not extinguished, and the water is not stopped. Beasts eat the people, and birds grab the old and weak. So Nuwa refined the five-colored stone to make up for the sky...... Accumulate ash to stop ****. The sky is supplemented, and the four poles are positive; Dry, Jizhou Ping; The cunning worm dies, and the people's livelihood is lost; Back to the state, hug the round sky. This is the story of the flood in Nuwa's mending the sky. ”
"Excuse me, who are you?" In the face of the rich and handsome people she has never seen, the young female teacher is a little nervous, and this tension is not the fawn rambling, nor the fanaticism of money worship, but from the oppression of sensibility and intellect.
"There is another version in Jewish legend that says that 'the Lord changed the position of the two stars'...... I'm Qian Hanxing, a Chinese scholar who studies stars, and I'm a visiting professor at National Peking University. Qian Hanxing didn't want to be touched by children, but took the initiative to shake the hand of the female teacher.
"I'm glad to meet you, too, but I'm not a Ph.D., and I dropped out." Lan Xin smiled reluctantly, in response.
Qian Hanxing saw Lan Xin's restraint, so he invited her to have lunch with him to open up the topic.
"I ...... Can you bring something to eat...... Do you want to come back and send it to these children? Some of them had been hungry for two days, and most of them had no meal...... Possible...... You won't get the idea. Lan Xin bit her lower lip and hesitated as she finished what she wanted to say. This is a great courage for her, who is not good at socializing, and what gives her courage is the heart that cares for children.
Qian Hanxing smiled softly, didn't say a word, and agreed.
The place to eat was chosen in a high-end restaurant, and when he stood outside the door of the restaurant, Lan Xin had already retreated. She felt like she shouldn't have gone in, staining the smooth wooden floors inside, or accidentally breaking priceless plates and cups.
"Waiter, I'm a VIP in the Observation Pavilion, please change a decent dress for the lady next to me, and find the top makeup artist to dress her up, this is not too much to ask, right?" Qian Hanxing elegantly took out a glittering bank card from his pocket, which seemed to have a sticky note on it, with a few numbers written on it......
"Of course, sir! The customer is God, and we will serve you wholeheartedly. The waiter took the gold card with unconcealed ecstasy.
An hour and a half passed, and Qian Hanxing did not feel impatient, but sat by the window with a glass of red wine and pondered.
Finally, there was a knock on the door, and it was a dusty woman who walked in, not only did her clothes change and put on light makeup, but even the original heavy glasses were replaced by expensive new contact lenses, and the whole person completely changed and became beautiful and moving.
"Well, this is in line with your original temperament as a woman." Qian Hanxing raised his red wine glass, raised it, and drank it all.
Lan Xin became at a loss, today she is like the heroine in the Cinderella plot, she thinks this is a dream of excessive lewdness.
"I ...... I'm not ......."
"You're not in a dream, and daydreaming isn't in vogue right now." Qian Hanxing put the wine glass back into the row of old wine boxes, sat down opposite Lan Xin, and motioned for her to sit down as well.
"There was a prophecy in Babylon: 'When the planets converge in the constellation Scorpio and line up in a straight line through their orbits, all mankind on earth will be destroyed; And when the same gathering takes place in the constellation of Scorpio, there will be another catastrophe of the Great Flood on Earth, the former in the middle of summer, and the latter in the harsh winter. Coincidentally, both Capricorn and Scorpio are involved in this holy war, so I want to eradicate both of them. ”
Qian Hanxing said a lot, but unfortunately, Lan Xin didn't understand it at all, and Rao is learning ability that she escorted all the way failed to comprehend the mystery in Qian Hanxing's words. This is due to a lack of background knowledge that cannot be counted as an IQ deficit.
Hanxing sandwiches Lan Xin's dishes while explaining the "holy war" from scratch, but to the latter, it all sounds like a fantasy.
Fortunately, Qian Hanxing has a two-yi phantom pupil, in view of the fact that people's cognition is first come and first come, Hanxing has no choice but to help Lan Xin reverse the materialist view of the world into idealism, maybe this distinction is not appropriate, in general, it is to let Lan Xin have the possibility of taking the initiative to accept the knowledge of the world of the world.
The transition was successful, because Lan Xin dropped out of school not only because she couldn't afford to pay for her tuition, but also because she accidentally researched a special imprint on prehistoric civilization. The core of it is the great flood recorded in ancient books, according to her statistics, there are more than 50 known flood myths and legends in the whole world. Most of them have a clear context and complete narratives, and it has been verified that most of the flood legends were formed independently, that is, they were purely oral narratives of their own people, and had nothing to do with a certain dominant culture.
This information can be said to be an important key to interpreting prehistoric civilization, but the evidence is insufficient, and scientific experiments and demonstrations cannot be carried out.
Originally, Lan Xin only discovered it by chance, but driven by curiosity, she came into contact with some unknown secrets more and more, these secrets are not actually the kind of secrets with a high degree of secrecy, but the details scattered in various ancient books, myths and legends, if you don't think outside of common sense, then, don't want to discover them in your life.
The Sumerians were the first group of advanced civilizations in the entire human race, and their civilization seemed to have been hollowed out, far beyond the civilization of the surrounding ethnic groups at that time.
In Sumerian mythology, Enil, the god of wind and the king of the gods, found humans too noisy and sent floods, droughts, and pestilences to destroy them. However, the human race survived by the good-natured water god Enki, who taught Alahasis about irrigation, grain storage, and medicine. Enil was quite angry and decided to secretly summon a few gods to send a huge flood to completely exterminate the human race, but Enki still knew that he would take refuge in a boat with Utanapizm in advance, and in the future, he gave Utanapilzm the ability to live forever and told him to live in seclusion in the mountains.
In this myth, which can be found through various encyclopedias, the "plague" has a wonderful correspondence with the events of three years ago......
It is precisely in this way that Lan Xin's research will be noticed by those who are interested.
However, this alone can't set off a big wave. After all, plague has been one of the biggest killers of human civilization since ancient times, and when it comes to plague, it is a legend of the global stream, and there is no evidence.
The Mayan Indians had a sacred text, the Bobowu Sutra, which they considered their life, which tells that the gods created human beings at the beginning of the world, but this was a less than smooth experiment, in which the gods first carved human figures out of wood and made them speak. These wooden men later lost their favor because they forgot the existence of the Creator. So the gods decided to launch a flood to destroy humanity......
"Wooden Man...... Do you know that in the Han Dynasty, did China still have the legend of wooden people who could look like people? Don't you think, these ...... Are they all similar to the concept of robots? Why did Zhuge Wuhou's wooden ox and flowing horse disappear, and why did the story of Lu Banqiao's death of his mother spread for so long? ”
"There is only one possible ......" At the beginning, at an academic seminar, Lan Xin boldly put forward his own idea - "Human beings are the product of alien civilizations!" ”
Those who attended the meeting naturally laughed and laughed.
But this is also to blame Lan Xin's lack of evidence, of course, Lan Xin only proposed a direction for discussion in this report, and everyone didn't take her words seriously at all, because she was only twenty-one years old at that time.
"Geniuses sometimes go the wrong way, future Dr. Lan Xin, please don't scatter your extra energy in this kind of place, learn to cook with me, haluha." An old unscrupulous professor said half-jokingly.
Since then, Lan Xin has found a lot of time to do research. But due to lack of funds, she can only use second- or even third-hand information. Even so, she discovers amazing secrets.
The second seminar, which was also her last......
"The Moon's orbit is very similar to that of artificial satellites, and the material on the Moon is somewhat older than the oldest rocks on Earth's soil, even more than the age of the formation of the solar system, and the distance from the Moon to the Earth is about ten times the circumference of the Earth's equator; The Moon is always facing the Earth on one side, and the back side is not visible at all. And also...... On the question of mending the heavens, the 'heaven' in Chinese mythology has always been in the northwest, above the Kunlun Mountains, and Chinese mythology, the 'heaven' is tangible, and the story of the separation of heaven and earth seems more like the moon was originally very close to the earth, but for some reason the road began to break away from the earth and came to the current orbit around the earth, and it may be that this detachment caused a global flood......
"Lan Xin! Enough is enough, the material you provide seems to be very convincing, but in fact there is no evidence, how can myths and stories be used as historical materials!? How did you study in college? ”
"That's right, Lan Xin, I gave you the project to complete before, and now, I always feel that I have to take it back and do it again......"
"Lan Xin, didn't I say you, is it necessary for you to study this? Who's going to publish your research but those science fiction magazines? It's thankless, so why bother, why don't you learn to cook with me. ”
……
"Wait!" Lan Xin blocked her ears and begged them to stop talking.
"I know that I have gone astray, but ...... When Copernicus proposed heliocentrism, Darwin published The Origin of Species, and Newton discovered gravity, how many people chose to side with them? Not only that, but as early as the ancient Greek period, some scholars studied this problem and drew a map of the distribution of stars. The Sumerians in prehistoric times mapped the solar system and even farther and wider universes...... These are all texts that already exist, but why did the Church burn Bruno to death? Have you ever thought about it? ”
The more Lan Xin spoke, the more excited she became, and she couldn't help but shed tears of grievance.
"Are we being manipulated by something, for something...... Mankind...... It's always the majority of people in ****......"
This is the last sentence that Lan Xin left to the attendees, which is thought-provoking.
Yes, the heroic age of mythology, that is the era of the very few people who do not have a majority of ****, how long has this not appeared?
Or is it that human beings, since their birth, have been ****......
※※
Lan Xin has stopped studying this aspect for nearly two years, and this time Qian Hanxing found her for two purposes, in addition to the explicit purpose of wanting her to participate in the holy war instead of herself, there is also a hidden purpose - to tell her that the world of life is very interested in her subject, and hopes that she can continue to study after the holy war.
"The desire for knowledge is the source of the progress of human civilization, let's explore, before the truth, all conclusions are time-sensitive fallacies, all impossibilities will be reversed with the passage of time and the progress of technology, which is why I like science."
Qian Hanxing patted Lan Xin on the shoulder and put a necklace on her with a fragment of a prayer gem as an ornament.
"Come on, Dr. Lanxin. You will be my agent, science and stars, and give you strength. ”
"Yes...... I'm just a reader, I don't know how to fight. "Even if Lan Xin was disturbed by the spirit of the Liangyi Phantom Pupil, she still maintained the rationality of thinking, Holy War Holy War, since it is a battle, then there will be casualties, which she does not want to see, let alone participate.
"It's not necessarily you who kills, you can summon a powerful squire and let him help you solve all your problems, how about it?" Qian Hanxing will secretly change the concept.
Lan Xin was still hesitating, but was moved by Qian Hanxing's next words.
"You can summon an acolyte that exists in mythology, and in this way, you will have 'first-hand information', so why not?"
Lan Xin nodded, and sketched the magic array in this box.
Qian Hanxing is a tycoon on the Oriental magic side, in terms of teaching, he is obviously a super competent teacher, of course, Lan Xin is also a rare genius student in a century, the two hit it off, and the summoning magic array was outlined in just one meal, and next, it was for Lan Xin to choose the order and rank of the summoning.
【Mythological Story...... Mythology...... God ......】
Lan Xin was babbling, and her mind was a mess.
At this moment, Qian Hanxing kindly (quite meaningfully) reminded: "You are weak, you have to make your attendants strong enough, and the strongest rank is undoubtedly Berserker, a mythical character who can meet the Berserker rank, who do you think?" ”
"Xingtian Dance is dry, and fierce ambition is always there. Xingtian, it's up to you to decide! Lan Xin held the necklace in his hand, and in an instant, the brilliance was shining, and the smoke was filled, and out of the array came a giant holding a giant axe and a square shield, he had no head, and took the navel as his mouth and his nipple as his eyes, which was very peculiar.
He is the hero in Chinese mythology who is most in line with the image of a berserker - Xingtian.
"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot to tell you, Lan Xin."
"What's the matter?"
"The piece I gave you originally belonged to some madman, that is, your rank is - berserker, the same as your squire......"
※※Information Disclosure※※
Now the master-slave correspondence of the rank has been determined as follows:
The swordsman Sakurai Yu corresponds to the fraudster Lu Haoxue;
The spearman Bai Zhen corresponds to the spearman Lu Bu;
The archer K corresponds to the swordsman Artoria (Arthur);
Berserker Lan Xin corresponds to Berserker Xingtian;
The Warlock Mourinho corresponds to the hidden class killer Lausanne;
The assassin Zhu Demu corresponds to the knight Sun God;
Fraudster zero corresponds to Mad Three the Destroyer;
The Destroyer Wu Qiong corresponds to the archer Xie Yuyao.
The undetermined (definite) master rank is Knight and the squire can be Assassin or Warlock.
