Perhaps because she didn't want to evoke nostalgia for her homeland, Feng Xue rarely mentioned it, even in the land of death. But it was true that she would occasionally say some strange things. Luo Jiujiang hadn't fully understood the meaning of "completely different" at first, but now, with just one glance in the dream, he completely understood.
...This is indeed different enough.
The woman on the stage had Sister Xue's figure, eyebrows, and general outline, but was different from Sister Xue in some facial details, such as her hair which was so short that it almost reached her ears. If you didn't know her, you would think she was a nun who had just returned to secular life.
But Luo Jiujiang remembered that Sister Xue had mentioned this. She said that this was also a common hairstyle over there, and it seemed to be called apricot blossom head or something?
Luo Jiujiang also remembered that Feng Xue said that her previous incarnation did not look like her current appearance.
So what did this dream mean? Luo Jiujiang silently assessed it, feeling a pang of sadness for Sister Xue: She still remembered the shape of her hair, the clothes people wore in the old world, and even a hall in her hometown. Yet, she used the face of "Hua Biyue," clearly having forgotten what she once looked like.
For Sister Xue, if the little girl named Feng Xue, who lives in her beloved hometown, even forgets what she looks like, then no one in this world will remember her.
Luo Jiujiang sighed inwardly, but Feng Xue was apparently oblivious. On the contrary, Feng Xue on the stage was ecstatic. Holding a ruler-like, black, rounded cylinder in her hand, she spoke forcefully, "As you all know, the purpose of today's presentation is to showcase my new discovery!"
"That's the xenomorph, a shining light in our biological community! This unique creature, with its tenacious life force and unique survival form, has captured the attention of the scientific community! After twenty years of painstaking research, I finally cracked their genetic code and am honored to have been nominated for the Norwegian Biology Prize!"
Luo Jiujiang: "..." Sister Xue usually spoke a lot of profound words, but certainly not as many as she did now. In the dream, Feng Xue had clearly completely let herself go.
Feng Xue on the stage was still giving an impassioned speech.
"Alien species, as the name suggests, are different from us. They are passed down from generation to generation, and so far, the academic community has only discovered thirteen species. As far as I know, the thirteen species we have discovered are already the limit, because the alien species are transformed from the 'Dao Yuan', and there are only thirteen drops of Dao Yuan so far."
"Tests have confirmed that after multiple generations of exposure to the 'Dao Yuan', the DNA of these alien species is completely distinct from that of ordinary alien beasts. Our previous data showed that a species called 'Taotie' repeatedly fed on the souls of its own children. However, even after their children's souls were devoured and died, their bodies retained a basic level of vitality. If an ordinary human soul were then transferred into them, they would still be able to display the alien species' powers."
"And the experience passed down from generation to generation among the alien species tells us that if an alien species' body is unfortunately destroyed, when its soul finds an ordinary body to reside in, this ordinary body can be transformed into an alien species again! And the racial bloodline and talents are completely consistent with the alien species' previous abilities!"
"I know some viewers may not understand what I'm saying, so please allow me to briefly explain - this means that aliens actually have two lives!"
After saying that, Feng Xue turned around and waved his hand violently. Suddenly, a pattern of Taotie appeared on the snow-white wall behind him. It looked bright and shiny, as if a shadow play was illuminated by something.
"Everyone, please look! This is Taotie, the biggest idiot we know of." Feng Xue paused and shouted three times in a row: "Idiot! Idiot! Idiot!"
Luo Jiujiang: "..." It seems that Sister Xue really has a deep grudge against Taotie, and she thinks about it all the time in her dreams.
"According to the theory just now, if this old stud who has devoted his life to giving birth to and eating children were willing to use his brain, he would know that if he exchanged the souls of the children he ate with the souls of ordinary people, then after a few times, he would have twice the number of alien resources. He could have enough manpower to form ten football teams, hold a mahjong tournament, and operate a cruise ship - but all he cares about is eating!"
Luo Jiujiang: “…”
"In short, based on the above, alien species actually have two lives." Feng Xue concluded: "As long as their souls are not directly destroyed, their bodies can actually die once for them."
"Life is so precious, but they still have one chance to start over. My speech is over, thank you everyone."
Luo Jiujiang: “…” Why does it feel like the beginning and the end don’t connect?
However, dreams themselves are so illogical. Luo Jiujiang occasionally recalled his first dream these two days, and he couldn't quite understand why he assumed that a wheelchair could be used to go out on the street and chop people.
"Before we end, please wave your arms so I can see your glow sticks!" Feng Xue waved her hands repeatedly, "Our slogan is—"
Luo Jiujiang watched intently, and almost in an instant, everyone in the hall had something emitting a faint glow in their hands.
Thousands of people shouted the slogans in unison. They shouted: "Beware of Baxia! Beware of Baxia! Beware of Baxia!"
Oh right! Sister Xue had reminded him of this before she died!
Because of the way the group was dressed, Luo Jiujiang hadn't dared to look directly at Sister Xue on the stage or the audience in front of him. But it wasn't until this moment, when the slogans rang out, that he realized something more.
