Chapter 169: The Truth
"What do you want to ask?" Lang Tianya asked.
"How's Kinoshita-ne? Is he dead? ”
"Who is Kinoshita? Why do you think I'll know him? ”
"Looks like you don't know him. He was a traversal slave who drove this boundary bead you came to your world. Then how did you get the Boundary Orb? ”
Lang Tianya briefly talked about what happened ten years ago. The paper pondered for a moment, and then said, "Can you tell me about your world?" ”
After Lang Tianya learned about this world in the past few hours, he already knew that this was not some fantasy otherworldly time-travel, but a real interstellar travel that could be explained by scientific knowledge. Therefore, when Lang Tianya heard the paper book asking about the earth, he became vigilant.
In the past, when he was running for his life, such as hiding in an advertising box, he hid for days at a time, and in order to pass the time, he read a lot of books, including a lot of science fiction novels. Therefore, he knows the location of a planet and the level of civilization, and if it is easily leaked to aliens, the consequences can be serious. Although he was tortured by the people on earth to death, he was not willing to put them in danger just like that. Not to mention his parents and brothers, it is likely that there are now more sisters-in-law, nephews or nieces, and there are many other people on earth who he loves. He didn't want their lives to be buried in a few casual words of his own.
Suddenly, Lang Tianya realized that he was so resolute when he left, but now that he has only been away from the earth for more than a day, he has begun to feel homesick, so he slapped himself hard in his heart, "What a shit!" ”
Lang Tianya decided to ask first before speaking.
"Why do you want to know about our world? Can you tell us why? ”
The paper was embarrassed, and he didn't seem to want to say more about his purpose, so he asked rhetorically: "Why don't you want to say it directly, but put my purpose first, what are you afraid of?" ”
Lang Tianya didn't hide it, and said directly: "I'm afraid that you will directly send a unit to kill people and set fire!" I understand the nature of human beings, they do anything for resources and land. This has happened many times in the history of my world. For example, when a new continent is discovered, the people of the higher civilizations rely on their shields and spears to slaughter or enslave the people of the lower civilizations on that continent.
"Although I have just arrived with you and don't know much about you, I believe that I am not much worse with you. The top level should be those old immortals on the white jade star, in the middle are you the superior people on the pink star, and the lowest level is the ordinary people on the blue star, who dig rune bones for you on the blue star with thin aura, creating huge wealth for you to enjoy. And you're also giving your best to the gods above, am I right? ”
The paper book nodded and said, "What you said makes a lot of sense. But I have to explain that there is still a difference between the two worlds. First, the cost of crossing between the two realms is too great, and it is difficult for us to send an army there. Second, your aura is very thin, and we are not interested in it at all. It has been nearly ten years since Kinoshita Root passed through, that is to say, it took ten years for the Boundary Bead to make up for the loss of the crossing. We have experimented, and it only takes two to four days to replenish these losses in our place, and even in the Blue Star of the Nether, it only takes about a hundred days. Therefore, the concentration of our aura should be dozens of times that of yours, you say, how can we scarce your little resources? Third, I don't know if you have any of them there, but we have a lot of enemies here, enemies from alien planets. Therefore, we are too busy to take over your planet. ”
Lang Tianya didn't know how much time was ten years here. He had long felt that the unit of timekeeping here was different from that of Earth. A day here is longer than the Earth, about a day here is equal to about a day and a half of the Earth, but he doesn't know how many days a year is here. He was not in a hurry to ask the other party these common-sense questions, and he had time to understand.
He decided to refute the other party's words first, so he smiled and shook his head and said, "You still underestimate human greed. The discovery of the New World was just the beginning. On the one hand, in order to reduce the cost of crossing, people will continue to delve into it, and sooner or later they will invent cheaper crossing methods. On the other hand, people can invent all kinds of ways to store Reiki, and then you will send people to us, fill it with all kinds of storage, and then ship it back here to use. For example, the demarcation beads, after modification, I think they can be used as gas tanks. As long as it is profitable, they will do everything they can to achieve their goals. In our world, people are also exploring outer space, and now there is not even a point spectrum, but some people are already planning interstellar colonization and expansion. Even if the planets in outer space that are discovered are barren, they will come up with all kinds of ways to occupy them. I think you are too, it's human nature. ”
The paper book sighed and said, "Okay! I can't tell you, I can reveal a little bit about my purpose. I actually wanted to study the history of the development of Reiki. The history of our use of Reiki here is too far back to be pinpointed. I don't know what stage you're at right now, but it's not too high. Seeing that you don't know anything about talismans, haven't you even started the talisman culture? ”
Lang Tianya was noncommittal.
The paper book continued: "This is an excellent opportunity for comparative research, I want to know how your aura appeared, and whether the aura of the two worlds is an inexhaustible resource. I wonder if one day the aura suddenly disappears, and this huge talisman civilization we have established becomes a tree without roots, a water without a source, and then collapses with a bang, and returns to the primitive society, you can imagine what a disaster this will be! ”
"It turns out that this is a historian who has nothing to worry about." Lang Tianya thought to himself. He was about to choose something that he knew about the development of the aura on the earth, and he chose something that was not important to tell the other party, when one of the nine aura needles he released suddenly had an induction. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop the intention of the paper to continue, and carefully distinguished. There are two sources of abnormal aura fluctuations, and their positions change quickly, it should be that the two targets are rushing towards Rongyang Village at a speed of about 100 kilometers per hour.
"It's coming quickly!" Lang Tianya couldn't help but say it, but he said it in Chinese.
The paper didn't understand, and asked, "What did you say?" ”
Lang Tianya explained: "Don't you remember the police investigator just now? I had long felt that he was suspicious of Xiaobu. No, there are two targets coming here quickly, I think it's the helper hired by the investigator, it seems that they are here to catch Xiaobu. ”
"From which direction?" The paper book asked.
"From that direction." Lang Tianya pointed in one direction, and he thought that it should be east, because the sun had just set from the other side.
"Not from the police!" The paper book affirmed, and then he explained: "The police station wants to transfer combat officers equipped with talismans from the direction of Juwei City in the north, and it is impossible to come from the east. Can you know how they are moving forward? Is it a rush character? Or with a flying charm? Or is it a flying charm? ”
Lang Tianya closed his eyes and felt it, and said softly: "It's in mid-air, there are five pink stars above the ground, it's flying, not running on the ground, the two targets are round, very smooth, and the air resistance is very small." ”
"It's a military single flying talisman!" Again, the paper affirmed, "Police combat officers generally use flying charms, and are not equipped with such expensive military flying charms. How far are they from here? How long does it take to get to the Nutrition Village? ”
Lang Tianya was speechless for a while, this involved the two issues of length units and timing, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and remembered what Xiaobu said that the blue star was one person above the horizon, and he converted it, this time is equivalent to an hour on the earth. So he replied, "It's about a third of the time when Blue Star is still a third of a man above the horizon." He was trying to mean almost twenty minutes of Earth time.
"Twelve fingers in time." The book on paper sets a scale for this period of time, so that Lang Tianya can refer to it. He continued: "The military station is quite far from here, and they should have set off at noon, so they can't have been transferred by Starlight. There are two possibilities for their arrival, one is for you; One is to come for Xiaobu, I don't know what he has done to damage the interests of the army. I advise you to hide for a while. I'll talk to you again when I get a chance. Take this! The paper book said, handed Lang Tianya a talisman, and then he turned his head and ran, and he didn't dare to open the rapid talisman, he lowered his head and hid in the rice field to run.
Lang Tianya took the talisman in front of him and looked at it, not knowing what it was, but he guessed that it was probably a communication talisman. He put the talisman in the pocket of his wide robe, and at the same time felt that the paper was a little strange, "He seems to be afraid of the people in the military, is there a contradiction between their aviation bureau and the military?" And he doesn't want me to fall into the hands of the military, is it for my safety, or is it for his own research? Why would people in the military be interested in me? ”
Lang Tianya couldn't figure it out, but he agreed with the other party's analysis. Safety first! He was about to run into the rice field, but suddenly he felt that he was running like this, which was a bit unrighteous for Xiaobu and Lao Ye. So he turned around and ran back, trying to get a message to the two of them before he ran.
