Chapter 22: The Mess (Part II)
Why did Da Vinci land on the Yichou Star first, in fact, Liu Chang and his party were not the first Terrans to reach here, millions of years ago, the ancestors of the Terrans came here, but unfortunately, the pioneers of the Terrans only stopped here, and no one could take a step forward and enter the Silver Heart World.
What's behind the Silver Heart, no one knows! According to the prophet in 'Birdman', the real universe is like a screen, where we can call for wind and rain and do whatever we want, with all kinds of advanced, perverted, and pinnacle technologies and weapons, but we can't shake a fly lying on the screen.
This is true as a human race, and it is true for creatures of other races! This is also why the former governor was a little disheartened when he left---- he had seen a lot of chosen sons like Liu Chang, not thousands, seven or eight hundred, and in the end there were no accidents, so he was not optimistic that Liu Chang could become the 'unprecedented' lucky one.
The location of the Gongpeng Star is actually the only entrance to the Silver Heart, and it was originally designed to allow the priority evolutionaries of the forty-eight tribes under the four major clans to establish a foothold here to prepare those who have the conditions or willingness to venture into the Silver Heart psychologically and speciesally.
Each tribe corresponds to one Shed Star, and so far, the forty-eight Shed Stars are less than a palm inhabited, that is to say, for hundreds of millions of years, the race that can become the Chosen One to be transported here, or to break through the time barrier and come here, is only a little more than two percent.
And these two adults, after arriving here, neither their own technology nor their own evolution have completed the conditions for breaking through to the silver heart, that is to say, they have stopped at the second-order civilization.
Of course, there are also some people with lofty ideals who vainly try to rely on extra-departmental technology to upgrade their own technology to the third order, which is the level of those birdmen. It's a pity that the evolution of technology relies on accumulation, not plagiarism!
Birdman never hides his science and technology, things are placed there for you to copy, and the funny thing is that even if you copy homework, you can't copy it!
Liu Chang didn't care too much about technology, he knew that his mission was the egg with a golden shell that occasionally appeared among thousands of eggs. Hatched by itself, whether it is a phoenix or a chicken, no one knows. Others don't know, and he himself doesn't know!
Today's meeting is just a formality, so that everyone knows that there is still a person who exists. I never dreamed that that the wonderful patriarch would perform such a show for himself in front of everyone.
The performance of the patriarch of Kungang, Liu Chang knows that this is testing his bottom line, to see what kind of attitude he has, is it just the meaning of this chirp king alone, or the meaning of everyone?
Of course, you can continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb and ignore it. But in that case, it will give everyone the illusion that the new governor is cowardly and easy to bully, and he thinks about it, "Stupid! Stupidity! Stupid! Leftovers! Liu Chang pretended to be really unbearable, stood there and scolded, thinking to himself: "You fucking rebelled against you, killed your people, and showed off in front of Lao Tzu." But he explained, "I mean... Oh, his chirp hair shouldn't be bowed, it should be braided... How ugly! "If you don't take a stand, why should you let Lao Tzu take a stand? Lao Tzu, the governor, may come to an end one day, just like his previous one; Besides, I still have something to do!
He sat down. The meeting was over, and there were quite a few people present, all of whom were staff of the Governor's Palace, and a grand dinner was held today for the inauguration of the new Governor; Everyone applauded and cheered, only Liu Chang felt that he couldn't cry or laugh.
"Is he a little insane?" I can't help but ask the assistant.
"Neurotic?" The assistant smirked, "He's a genius!" He was the best and greatest patriarch in the world, and he said that if he was elected governor, everyone in the galaxy would have broth to drink! β
"Broth? Why broth, that... What about meat? β
"Meat? Oh yes, what about the meat? The assistant said expressionlessly, "Probably the Rakshasa people don't know that meat can be eaten, they say that eating too much meat is easy to fart, and it stinks, pollutes the air, and is not conducive to environmental purification... β
"Isn't there something wrong with your head?"
Liu Chang's mouth was so wide open - the plates and plates in front of him were full of food. He had never seen so much food on the table at the same time, and there were countless things he had never seen before, such as blood-red, wriggling maggots, and green tubes stuck all over his body.
Is this delicious? Liu Chang's mood got better, fuck Kungang, it's just a clown.
Accompanied by assistant Abbas, the first five people to meet with him walked in front of Liu Chang, "Your Excellency," Abbas said, "Now allow me to introduce you to you. These are: His Excellency Prince Sanson Ima, from a famous family, a descendant of the twenty-four human race, and his distant ancestor was also the chosen son;
Mr. Duke Tsunashi Osawa, Minister of the Interior, Ryu;
Mr. Duke Vitaly Birao, the editor of the newspaper, the Feathered Race, he was a powerful man, a well-known Conservative, and because of his presence, the first thing the editor-in-chief of all the websites did every morning was not to turn on the monitor, but to flip through his newspaper;
Admiral Han Ding, orc clan.
Minister Shi Sangang, a famous mathematician and physicist, chief professor of the Academy of Sciences, Terran. β
Liu Chang nodded to them one by one, and his attitude was very polite. When he heard the last name, he couldn't help but take a step forward, and a faint flush appeared on his face.
"Have you met our famous 'unbusiness' expert, Mr. Governor?" Abbas asked.
"I've never seen it." Liu Chang replied that at this time he had completely restrained himself, this person was the only person Alan had mentioned to him before leaving, saying that he might be his guide, and his mathematical model of the universe might be able to finally explain the secrets of the universe, "Not doing business?" Liu Chang asked curiously.
"He's a mathematician, he's a physicist, and his lab and desk are full of all kinds of 'eggs.'"
"Oh, Mr. Abbas!" Admiral Han Ding interrupted him and said.
"Let me go on, General!" Abbas continued, "We just heard about his latest move, which was a very heroic feat, and our professor plans to hatch those 'eggs' himself. β
"Ahh You have a noble heart," Liu Chang said, "that's great." β
This exclamation was not so much an answer to Abbas as an answer to Liu Chang's own thoughts, and everyone was surprised, especially Shi Sangang, who looked at Liu Chang in surprise.
But because the tone is so soft, no matter how strange the exclamation is, it will not make the listener angry.
"Well, why should we doubt mathematicians with meticulous logic?" Liu Chang said to Abbas that with his vision and experience, he has seen through everything that the professor can see, this professor not only uses mathematics to explain physics, he wants to use mathematics to calculate life, "This professor is indeed a strange person." What do you think, Prince Ima? β
Prince Ima: "Not bad! I didn't understand what he was doing, but he had a genuine eye and I liked him a lot. β
"Gentlemen," said Abbas, "dinner is ready. Your Excellency the Governor, allow me to show you the way. β
They quietly walked into the dining room, and everyone took their seats.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Liu Chang said, as he took his seat, "allow me to make a confession and explain any of my unorthodox actions." I'm a foreigner, and I'm here for the first time in my life.
I don't know anything about your way of life, and so far I've been following the customs of my homeland, perhaps the exact opposite of yours. So, if you find that I am different from you in some way, please forgive me. Now, folks, let's have dinner. β
"Look, the way he said that!" Duke Tsunashi Osawa said in a low voice, "He looks like a big man at first glance. β
"In his native country, he can be said to be a big man, I heard that he was born in the royal family and is the heir to the throne." Duke Vitaly Birao is worthy of his journalistic background, and before Liu Chang arrived, he began to collect all the information about Liu Chang.
"Dear Mr. Governor" Abbas saw that Liu Chang was just eating some honey candy cakes, and did not look at some of the various delicacies he had carefully prepared, and even the 'blood romance' that he specially arranged for the chef to recommend and explain for him was disdainful, and even more interested in the chef himself than in the food, and said with some guilt, "I am afraid that the food we prepare is not as good as your appetite in your hometown." I should have consulted with you first to make you a few dishes that suit your taste. After speaking, the corner of his eye casually glanced at everyone.
"If you know more about me," Liu Chang replied with a smile, "I can eat any meal wherever I go, but I eat very little." Today, you blame me for eating less, but in fact it's time to have a good appetite, because I haven't eaten since yesterday morning. β
"What!" The guests exclaimed, "You haven't eaten all day?" β
"Yes," Liu Chang replied, "because I had to take a detour to the Forty-Eighth Institute to arrange some things, so it was too late, and there were no stops along the way." β
"So did you eat in the car?" Abbas asked.
"No, I sleep, I always sleep when I'm tired and don't want to have fun, or when I'm hungry and don't want to eat."
"But can you sleep, Your Excellency?" General Han Ding, who had been silent, seemed to be very curious about this question and asked.
"That's pretty much it." Liu Chang showed a typical smile, they are also orcs, Liu Chang has no antipathy similar to the patriarch for this old general, after all, he can be regarded as respecting himself, and he used a piece of animal fur that should be covered to surround it, giving people the feeling that there is no trace of disobedience, on the contrary, it is more powerful and fierce, which is more in line with the temperament of a soldier.
The general asked eagerly, "Is your method safe?" β
"Foolproof." Liu Chang replied, "I don't know that the general is so interested in this issue, and the general has insomnia?" β
The general said: "It is so rare for those of us who are away all the year round, we often cannot find food and drink. A good night's sleep can not only quickly restore physical strength and energy, but also save consumption as much as possible. β
"Yes," Liu Chang said, "but unfortunately, although my method is very useful to people like me who live a special life, it is very dangerous to the officers and men of the whole army, and will make them unable to wake up when they need to wake up." β
"Can we ask what exactly this approach is? I don't think it's going to be sleeping pills, right? Abbas asked.
"Oh, yes," Liu Chang replied, "I don't want to keep it a secret." It's not sleeping pills, I've always had a rejection of all things chemical, and I think it's foolish to trade the price of damaging the body's balance for some temporary effect. In nature, there are many things that can make the body sleep for a short time, for example, the snake venom of some snakes, only a good measurement can make the body quickly enter a dormant state. β
"Snake venom!?" Vitaly Birao said that he was still very skeptical when he stood in the shoes of a journalist, "You don't carry a poisonous snake with you, do you?" β
"Always with me."
"I'd like to see this precious pill, Mr. Governor, and you won't blame me for being rude, will you?" Vitaly Birao said again, wanting to stump him.
"Nothing, Your Excellency." Liu Chang replied, and after speaking, he took out a very valuable small box from his pocket, which was carved from a whole piece of diamond, with a jade lid on it, and as soon as the lid was turned, a small emerald green insect stretched out from it, about three inches in size.
"Are you going to let this worm bite you, or are you going to eat this poisonous snake like a spicy strip?" Vitaly asked.
"Oh, no, Your Excellency," replied Liu Chang, "this little thing was obtained by me when I passed through a company called Sirius, and I had to sacrifice several lives to get it, although the local indigenous rumors said that eating one can prolong life, and eating it regularly can lead to immortality, which is also the reason why it is on the verge of extinction--- it is very poisonous, and a drop can kill a dinosaur." β
"Immortal?!" Everyone's eyes widened, watching this emerald green little insect spit out the head of the letter from time to time, eager to snatch it and stuff it into their mouths, except for the mathematician Shi Sangang who was ready to hatch eggs instead of a hen, his body shook slightly, but immediately returned to normal, looking like he didn't care about himself, "Is this true!?" β
"Professor Shi" Liu Chang said, "Why are you the only one who doesn't think so, do you already know about this little thing?" β
Everyone looked at Shi Sangang in amazement, Liu Chang spoke so concisely, it was obvious that what he said was the truth, otherwise he would be crazy. However, the stuff of legends is right in front of them, so they are naturally inclined to believe that the rumors are true.
"What about you?" Even Duke Tsunashi Osawa, the Minister of the Interior, who had always maintained his graceful state, couldn't help but gently kick Shi Sangang with his toes. This move is very rude according to common sense, but no one thinks it is abrupt, this Minister of the Interior is a dragon clan, reincarnated with two horns, although it is not as desperately tall as a dinosaur, but it is also more than ten feet tall, even if it is the general of the orc clan, in front of him, it is like a child.
Liu Chang raised his hand to stop him and said, "If my question makes you feel embarrassed, you can choose to refuse." β
"No," Shi Sangang said loudly, "If Mr. Governor knew the name of this bug, I'm sure you wouldn't want to take it with you." β
"Oh?" Seeing that Shi Sangang did not deny that he knew this thing and knew its name, everyone was also interested.
"Maybe." Liu Chang replied with a smile.
"I don't remember its scientific name, maybe I forgot," Shi Sangang said, "but I remember its common name very well, he is the infamous 'zombie bug'." β
"Zombie bug?!" Everyone was shocked, and even the majestic and mighty general took a few steps back, showing fear on his face.
"Yes. Originally, I didn't know if I was sure, but listening to Mr. Governor's description, I have to rely on it to ensure my sleep, and I can be sure that it is a zombie bug! The toxins it secretes can put people into a state of paralyzing and suspended animation, and then invade and control the human brain and nervous system. The professor continued.
"What about the consequences?"
"The consequence, of course, is that the entire human body is like a zombie, becoming a real walking dead." The professor smiled slightly and said calmly: "Of course, from another point of view, entering the zombie state is also a kind of immortality. β
The professor was sure γγγγγγ Learned. Everyone muttered in their mouths, and their bodies unconsciously kept a certain distance from Liu Chang, although they verbally ridiculed and sarcastically mocked the professor's actions, and felt that he was not doing his job, but he still had a bad attitude towards the professor's words. Prevent the Governor from suddenly bursting with green light, growing fangs, and then pounce on himself.
The expressions of the crowd, how Liu Chang didn't know what they thought. He didn't explain, he just smiled slightly, and then carefully put the bug away and put it in his arms.
"Hehe," the professor said and laughed, "It's just that this poison would never have thought that he would end up like this." β
βγγγγγγβ
The professor continued: "It was supposed to be a nightmare for mankind because it fed on the human brain, and according to Mr. Governor, it itself became human food, and was eaten to the point of extinction. I don't think there is one of the most failed species in this universe to evolve. β
The dinner continued, and many people came in one after another under the guidance of the assistant. The assistants sang their names and positions on the side,
They just showed their faces in front of Liu Chang, and Liu Chang smiled at each other, without much intersection.
Everyone stretched out their hands to make a gesture for everyone to sit down, such as being amnestied, and before Liu Chang's invitation of 'please take a seat' was finished, they had already moved away from Liu Chang's main seat and found their respective positions.
The last person to appear was actually a man dressed as a chef, leading a child to stand on the left and right sides of Liu Chang's dining table. It makes sense to take responsibility for the food you cook.
In the palace, this role is played by the eunuchs of Shangshan, but here it is the chef who tastes the food. It seems that the two are still father and son.
The rest of the work, of course, is done by the assistant as the agent, including the congratulations of the guests and the thank you words as the host, Liu Chang himself is like a statue, but his eyes are slightly narrowed, and he keeps it like a smile but not a smile, giving people everything under control, and an unfathomable disgusting expression.
After raising a glass and taking a sip with everyone, the banquet begins.
"Sir" The cook, who was wearing a tall white hat and an elder with fleshy wings behind him, looked at Liu Chang in surprise and said proudly. "Would you like to eat something firstβit's very replenishing!"
"It looks delicious. I haven't eaten decently in more than 100 years," Liu said, "Of course, I still miss those traditional delicacies." Liu Chang is really not used to being like a fly, absorbing bodily fluids from the wriggling body that I don't know whether it is red or white, but if it is praised, Liu Chang is still not stingy, it knows that his attitude is related to the future or fate of this cook. At this world-renowned banquet, he didn't want to leave a bad reputation as 'difficult to serve'.
"If it's too unpalatable, I don't mind coming down and beating you up." Liu Chang smiled and passed his heartfelt words to the fat chef with his eyes.
"I've heard of you!" The one next to the cook was similar to him, but he was much shorter, Liu Chang guessed that it might be the cook's son, and ate all the dishes on his plate, and suddenly said, "My brother told me about you - you are the bald Tony." β
"Tony? No, no, no," Liu Chang shook his head with a smile and said, "I hope you still call me Nikolabus. Bald Jazz is a little better. "On this occasion, how can a cook speak, let alone a child. But when Liu Chang's eyes fell on those princes and princesses, he found that they were all munching, and he didn't feel that he was funny in his heart---- his own limelight, but he was robbed by the king of chirp!
But it doesn't matter, you don't say it, Lao Tzu said it alone, you can't let the audience in the entire galaxy be watching your group just chirp, Liu Chang picked up a piece of honey candy cake and was eating, the topic turned to everyone's family, the cook said: "I was born in the Yuren family, my father is an engineer, my mother didn't tell my father until she got married that she was a cook, he must have been very surprised and unhappy at that time." Now, you see, my son inherits his mother's business. β
Everyone else burst out laughing, even though the laughter sounded weird. What's so funny about that?
Feather people, in ancient Chinese mythology, there is a shadow of the feather people, they are compared to immortals, but unlike other immortals, they are covered with feathers, wings, and can fly. "Chu Ci Far Travel": "Still feather people are in Danqiuxi, leaving the immortal old hometown. As the name suggests, it refers to a person who has long feathers or a feather coat and can fly. It first appeared in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", called Yumin.
The feathered people in front of them are different from the legends, and the 'birdmen' are also different, although they have wings on their backs, they have no feathers, their appearance is very similar to humans, their limbs are slender, their height is slightly taller than that of humans, and their skin color is lighter than that of humans, "Even the feathers have degenerated, I don't know if I can still fly?" Liu Chang kept looking at him, not caring about himself, what was worthy of his attention for a chef who tried the food, what he was concerned about was the pair of meat wings that their father and son were born on their backs.
This feather family may also be a species that has failed in evolution, there was a chance to fly, I don't know why I chose to give up flying, especially the 'cook' industry, I don't know how they felt when they served 'grilled chicken wings' to guests?
"And you, Abbas Parker?" Liu Chang asked his assistant. This assistant is 100% of the same species as Liu Chang, slightly taller than a normal adult, and is handsome and handsome, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes.
"My grandmother raised me, and she was a justice for life." "My uncle, Applejack, always wanted to train me to be a judge β but I had no interest in being a judge, but my life before I was eight years old was nothing special.
When I was eight years old, my uncle came to my house, and he grabbed me by the ankle and hung me upside down outside the upstairs window, and asked me to recite the explanations of the dry legal texts. I was also blessed by misfortune, and they no longer forced me to understand the laws that were like cold anklets.
Although I may not be qualified to be here, maybe I have memorized the law since I was a child, and when I interviewed, the interviewer happened to be from the law--- I am grateful to my uncle" Opposite Liu Chang, Abbas Parker talked eloquently, as if returning to the memory of previous years, "I really wish I had started to study hard again now, there are so many things to learn." β
Liu Chang felt very warm, this feeling was like he had returned to his childhood when he was a gang leader in his hometown, and looked up at the rostrum on the high platform. There was no one there, but Liu Chang knew that everything here was being livestreamed.
