Even without Chu Xuan's reminder, everyone realized that something was wrong.

The surname Zhang is extremely common in China, and the name Heng, if not particularly common, is not surprising. Therefore, there should be many people named Zhang Heng, at least in a country with a population of more than one billion, there should be thousands of people with this name. But unbelievably, after Cheng Xiao's in-depth investigation, he made a shocking discovery - in this vast world, there is only one person named Zhang Heng.

"Sure enough."

Regarding Cheng Xiao's report, Chu Xuan just replied with two words flatly, as if all this would not surprise him: "This verifies another guess of mine." ”

"Senior Colonel Chu Xuan, what's going on?"

In the previous Zhongzhou team, the best relationship with Zhang Heng was actually Cheng Xiao, this self-familiar young man would often pull Zhang Heng to joke or something, and their relationship in private was also quite good. But because of this, after following Chu Xuan's instructions to personally investigate Zhang Heng and find that something was wrong, Cheng Xiao was even more puzzled: "Could it be that Zhang Heng is actually a very important person?" Or does he have some very special background? ”

"A person's name naturally has an important meaning."

Chu Xuan's words seemed to guide Cheng Xiao and the other members of the Zhongzhou team to think about a more esoteric concept. Instead of answering questions directly, he led the conversation to the ancient people's understanding of language and things.

"In ancient times, people could not clearly distinguish between language and things, and often thought that the relationship between names and the people or things they represented was not only a conceptual connection between people's thoughts, but also a real material connection, from which the first curses and witchcraft ......"

Chu Xuan's voice contained an insight into ancient culture, and he spoke of an ancient belief that there was a mysterious and substantial connection between name and substance. In this belief, changing or using a certain name can have an impact on the person or thing that corresponds to it, which is the basis of ancient curses and witchcraft: "Witchcraft is not separated, I believe you should know it very well." ”

"I know very well." Cheng Xiao nodded and said: "There are similar methods in Journey to the West, such as calling out the other party's real name, as long as you promise, you can suck the enemy into the gourd or something......"

"Yes, a person's name is more than just a simple label or title. It is the definition of an individual's identity, and it can also be a strength. ”

Chu Xuan calmly explained: "In the widely spread Western fantasy world, there is a saying of True Name. The true name of a powerful individual is its weakness, and there are even legends that can control it if you know the true name of the demon. ”

"In this way, it's a bit like the principle of opening a box." Yang Yun touched his chin thoughtfully.

"What is unboxing?" Zheng Zhe beside him cast a puzzled look.

“…… It's doxing. ”

"Oh, I'll get you the ...... when you say that."

Not to mention the uneven dialogue between the two about the times, it is precisely because he knows more about witch Gu than others that Cheng Xiao raised a new question: "But I have never seen Zhang Heng's situation, no one has the same name and surname as him, which is a bit ......"

In the witchcraft culture, the uniqueness or repetition of names may be related to the effectiveness of some kind of witchcraft or curse, and Zhang Heng did not share the name with others, which seems to be inconsistent with the rules that Cheng Xiao knew. Is there a more subtle level involved, or is there something else going on?

"Have you ever heard of evasion?"

Chu Xuan asked rhetorically: "For the Venerable, for the relatives, for the sage." Names can also represent the corresponding person, as well as something more deeply important. Whether it is Taoism, Buddhism, or the great sects of the West, there is a legend that calls on the name of the gods to gain power. ”

"Could it be that the name 'Zhang Heng' is still a great power that has been annihilated in history? Or whose reincarnation is he? Cheng Xiao made a joke, but when he saw Chu Xuan's expression, and Yang Yun and Zheng Zhe also had serious expressions, he couldn't laugh anymore: "...... No way? I can't really guess it, right? ”

"In fact, in the world of the Pacific Rim, I have tested this conjecture first."

Instead of directly answering Cheng Xiao's question, Chu Xuan instead shared his new discovery, which was obviously closely related to the topic they were currently discussing.

Chu Xuan's tone revealed a researcher's expectation of the secret that was about to be revealed, and he continued: "There are also billions of human beings in that world, but through the search and filtering of the core of Nether, I have found that there is still no name named 'Zhang Heng' among the countless names...... Not only that, but even names such as Gong Changheng or Zhang Geng are also not recorded. ”

"And the world of Harry Potter is the same as the world of Curses, this is not a simple coincidence."

Chu Xuan's words revealed a puzzling phenomenon, despite the huge number of people in these worlds, the name Zhang Heng was as if it had never appeared, and it was impossible to find the same sound or related name: "It's interesting, isn't it?" Voldemort in the Harry Potter world has a corresponding magic in his name, so much so that people in that world only dare to call him "mystery man". ”

Chu Xuan's words revealed his desire to study the unknown and pursue the truth, he compared Zhang Heng's situation with Voldemort in the Harry Potter world, as if he had found a clue in this abnormal reality, and he continued to reason: "And Zhang Heng entered the main god space in this world and became a newcomer to the Zhongzhou team...... Don't you think that the Lord God is consciously hinting at something to us and deliberately leading us to explore? ”

"Chu Xuan, but even if we know this, we can't do anything. There may be some kind of secret in Zhang Heng's name, but this secret is not something we can know now. ”

Yang Yun, who knew the most about the hidden meaning behind the word "Zhang Heng", spoke, and he heard the trace of fanaticism in Chu Xuan's words. But because of this, he couldn't let this guy who was on the top of the research desire to uncover the window paper too early: "You should be aware of the danger behind this." ”

"Yes, I understand that all this is too early for us."

Regarding Yang Yun's warning gaze, Chu Xuan nodded slowly: "At least for now......

"It's too early." (End of chapter)
