Chapter 41: Baiaji who sleeps in the Pleiades

The god horse sleeping on the sea of stars worships Aji?

When Chen Jing told the old man about the origin of the relics against the light curtain, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

Divine Horse?

Baiaji?

"Do you blow this whistle...... Can you summon a horse? Chen Jing pondered in his heart, feeling a little confused.

in his understanding.

The sacred horse is usually an adjective or pronoun for a good horse in ancient times.

But sleeping on the sea of Pleiades......

"Pleiades?" Chen Bofu muttered to himself, his eyes full of puzzlement, "I seem to have heard this name somewhere......"

"It's supposed to be a star, right? Didn't it say what kind of sea of stars it was behind it? Chen Jing reminded quietly, but he didn't dare to say it too clearly, because his understanding of the world was still very limited.

At least in those musty scrolls, Chen Jing had never seen a record of the astronomy of the Inner World.

What's more, since Chen Jing crossed over to the inner world, he hadn't seen any other stars in the night sky of the Eternal Night Market.

At a glance.

The only thing left in the sky was the moon named Gegero.

"I remember! It is one of the 28 nights! Chen Bofu said suddenly, a look of excitement twitching in his cloudy old eyes, "The Pleiades are one of the twenty-eight houses of the old era!" I have seen this account in the archives of the Parliament......"

“……”

Chen Jing looked at the old man with some puzzlement, he didn't expect that there would be so many similarities between the inner world and the watch world, and even astronomy was so similar, but after thinking about it...... He also suddenly became enlightened.

The world on the outside and on the inside is interdependent.

Maybe the connection is deeper than he imagined.

There is nothing strange about astronomy being similar.

"In the old days, in the sky of the Eternal Night Market...... No, it should be in the sky of the whole world, there are other celestial bodies! ”

As if he had solved some problem, Chen Bofu excitedly took out the cigarette case from his pocket, first glanced at his good grandson, and made sure that he had no reaction, so he slowly lit a cigarette.

"The Pleiades are one of the twenty-eight Nakshatras of the old days, consisting of seven stars that are extremely far away from us, also known as the Pleiades or Scattered Star Clusters, and I have seen the name Baiaji in the books......"

"You've seen the record of Baiaji too?" Chen Jing was stunned.

"I've seen it, but there aren't many records about it, I only remember a rough idea, as if it was ......"

Chen Bofu's eyes showed the color of memory, and he slowly spit out a puff of smoke, choking Chen Jing couldn't help but glance at him.

"Ahem, don't smoke, don't smoke......" The old man snuffed out the cigarette butt, threw it on the ground and stepped on it hard, "Baiaji is an ancient creature that served an old god, and it was born from a star in the Pleiades......"

Speaking of which.

Chen Bofu also seemed to be a little reluctant to believe the records in ancient books, and his words were in an uncertain tone.

"It is said that there is a lake on that star, and Baiaji was born from the water, and it can travel between the Pleiades to deliver messages to the gods, and it can travel faster than the light ......"

"Is that an exaggeration?" Chen Jing listened to the old man's narration and only felt unbelievable.

Traveling through the universe?

This powerful creature ...... Can you really be summoned by me?

And take 10,000 steps back.

If this whistle can really summon the legendary Baiaji, then why can it only be regarded as an ancient relic?

Shouldn't it be considered a rarer and stronger old relic?

"It's all legends, who knows if it's true or not, and there are records of the old days, most of which have exaggerated descriptions......"

Chen Bofu also looked at the whistle in Chen Jing's hand at this moment, with a trace of unconcealable curiosity in his eyes.

"According to the records, Baiaji is the most beautiful creature in the Pleiades Star Sea, and is a divine steed that even the gods admire...... I think it's supposed to be a horse, right? ”

When Chen Bofu said this, he raised his hand and gestured.

"It's supposed to have wings and be able to fly, anyway, there's a picture in the ancient book that is drawn like this......"

Hearing this, Chen Jing couldn't help but imagine in his mind the picture of "Bai Aji" galloping among the stars.

"Why don't you ......" Chen Jing clenched the whistle and winked at the old man, "Let's summon it once?" You don't have to pay for it anyway......"

"Okay!" Chen Bofu dragged Chen Jing back, and his pace quickly became a little impatient, "Let's go to the rooftop!" That place is spacious! ”

"Why don't you go to the square...... Chen Jing said in a low voice, "There is a big crow raised by a finch on the rooftop, that thing is annoying, and maybe the finch is also there......"

"You know how to avoid people now?" Chen Bofu glared at him angrily, "I said at the beginning that you shouldn't be so busy, you should take care of her, which annoyed me, Lao Tzu directly roasted the crow she raised and ate it!" ”

“……”

"But then again, you've helped Grandpa a lot today."

"Huh?" Chen Jing asked puzzledly, "Did I help in any way?" ”

"Yes, it's so ......" Chen Bofu said with a smile, pointing to the shelves behind him without looking back, "Don't look at grandpa's collection of so many 'relics', at least ninety percent of them I can't figure out their origins, and I don't even know their functions......"

Hearing this, Chen Jing was stunned for a while, and then suddenly understood why the old man would say that his understanding of the relics came from "divine revelation......

"For the old people, the 'relics' are both opportunities and traps, their abilities need to be explored by the old people themselves, the origin is even more ambiguous and difficult to study, and most importantly, the cost is ......"

Chen Bofu let out a long sigh, his expression was very helpless.

"Until they find a way to use the 'relic', no one knows what the 'relic' is capable of, let alone what the 'relic' wants."

Chen Jing listened silently, only feeling as if he had another amazing ability.

"So in many cases, by the time the old descendants figure out the cost of use, it's often too late...... But then again, you weren't an old descendant when you used that Holy Grail, were you? ”

"I really wasn't an old descent...... Chen Jingqiang tried to explain, "but I saw that grail had a thorn in it...... I just thought I would try it...... I didn't expect to be blinded by me......"

Chen Bofu didn't show anything else when he heard this, and Chen Jing couldn't tell whether he believed it or not.

It wasn't until they walked out of the scarlet door, and the two of them returned to the familiar bedroom, that the old man spoke, and looked at him with a kind smile.

"Good grandson, you have to be good."

"Huh?" Chen Jing felt that something was wrong with the old man, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

Without waiting for Chen Jing to ask more, Chen Bofu opened the window with a smile and dragged Chen Jing to jump directly from the upstairs.

"Let's go, let's go to the square......"

"Go and summon your own Baiaji."
