Chapter 194 The Rolling Sheep Move in
Facing Zhen Xianghong's expectant gaze, Chi Yizhen paused, did not answer, and instead asked, "Have you adopted a spiritual acquaintance?"
Zhen Xianghong was stunned for a moment, not understanding why he asked this question. He shook his head and said, "I don't meet the conditions for adopting the Soul Doll." Zhen Xianghong had known about the Fantasy Park for a relatively short time. When he first came to the Fantasy Park, the first batch of Soul Doll adoption spots were full. The people behind him could only wait in line, saying that they had to wait for the Soul Doll's eggs to hatch again.
Zhen Xianghong didn't think he had the time to get a digital pet, so he hadn't applied yet. When he heard the director's question, he assumed it was some hidden requirement and immediately said, "I can apply to adopt one right now."
Chi Yizhen shook his head. He could tell at a glance whether Zhen Xianghong had adopted a spiritual doll, and he asked this question just to lead to the next sentence.
"In our paradise's setting, the Psychic Dolls are a strange race that slumbers within the human dream sea. When their eggs mature, they float out of the dream sea and land on any host they choose, waiting for humans to awaken and raise them with their longing and love."
Zhen Xianghong didn't understand why the headmaster brought up this, but he didn't dare interrupt and just nodded blankly.
Chi Yizhen continued, "You've learned about our paradise, so you should know that we've long since stopped using high-tech rhetoric. We have our own worldview. The setting we present to the outside world is two worlds: Earth and another. The other world is home to all sorts of magical creatures, evil gods, and the monsters they created. They're invading Earth, and the paradise is the first line of defense against that invasion."
Zhen Xianghong nodded repeatedly, "I know everything."
Chi Yizhen continued, "The 'Book Travel' experience center is designed to be a gateway to a fantasy world, where you can see anything that doesn't exist in reality, including works from the first and second dimensions, and of course, anything imaginary."
Zhen Xianghong's voice was a little difficult. "You mean, the relatives I saw in there were just my own imagination."
Chi Yizhen: "If you go by scientific theory, that's just your fantasy. If you go by the setting of Paradise, then I can only say that longing, faith, and emotion are all a kind of power. Human longing can nourish the soul, and human faith can create gods. So why can't we make the souls of the deceased live forever in another dimension?"
Zhen Xianghong was shocked. "You mean, as long as I remember them and think of them, they will live forever?"
Chi Yizhen nodded, "Yes, before you completely forget about them."
Not long after, Zhen Xianghong left the paradise.
The security room was very quiet, with only the sounds of the game. [Player, today I suddenly realized that you are very gentle.]
Chi Yizhen laughed out loud, "Really? That's great."
But the smile suddenly disappeared at a certain moment. "What do you think? If I write about my childhood experience, can I meet my grandma in the experience center?"
Game: [Players should be able to understand this question.]
Chi Yizheng didn't say anything.
Yugi had told him that before Paradise was built, the concentration of Earth's spiritual energy, or the concentration of its extraordinary factors, was too weak and too low, so there wouldn't be any beings beyond the mundane, such as gods or ghosts.
So when his grandmother died, she was dead and there was no legacy left.
But think about it another way: her body decomposed into other substances, nourishing other creatures and dispersing into the bodies of countless creatures. Isn't it also existing in another form? And at his current level, how much energy can his thoughts and emotions bring to the departed soul?
The Book of Miracles, combined with the Anywhere Door, can spontaneously collect all information related to the story, and it is not impossible to recall the energy of the deceased. However, they may not be able to realize that they are dead.
Chi Yizhen: "Game, am I right?"
Game: [To be more precise, the people you see in "Book Travel" are half the energy of the deceased, recalled to the imaginary world, and half the imagination of the living. The combination of the two is what you see in "Book Travel."]
"Is that so?" Chi Yizhen sighed slightly, "After all, he is not the same person anymore."
I don’t know if it was because he was afraid of disappointing himself or for some other reason, but Chi Yizheng wrote a few words with the pen in his hand and put it down for the time being.
***
Zhen Xianghong felt that what he saw in the experience center was his grandma and mother, there was no doubt about it!
His grandmother and mother, his relatives, are they real or fake? Can't he tell them apart?
Whenever Zhen Xianghong thinks about his lost loved ones living safely in another dimension, he feels extremely happy and expectant.
He entered the "Book Travel" experience hall again and returned to his childhood.
Although the park had said when he bought the empty board that it would only generate a single alley and a row of houses, after actually walking around, he found that the park was still too shallow. The world generated on the empty board was as large as half the village in his childhood memories, just enough to cover his elementary school.
He cheated with adult memory and got first place in every subject, acting like a fake top student.
Subconsciously, he concealed the matter of the paradise, and only tentatively said that he would travel back to the age of 28 after falling asleep at night. His grandmother and mother encouraged him to live a good life at the age of 28.
Zhen Xianghong: "I will."
From then on, he visited the park once a week and devoted the rest of his time to work. No longer obsessed with fame or the pursuit of attention, he sought out a mentor and diligently studied etiquette and polished his acting skills. People around him commented on his significant transformation.
His adopted father seemed unwilling to see him improve, and his attitude was often impatient. However, Zhen Xianghong was now able to support himself and no longer cared about his opinion. Life was much easier than before.
But occasionally, he would think about the Fantasy Park, and the more he thought about it, the more mysterious it seemed to him. "Maybe the world view and background released by the park is the real one!" This thought scared him so much that he broke out in sweat before he could figure it out completely.
The special department came and brought a confidentiality agreement.
“Not a single word of the truth about Paradise can be revealed,” the man said.
Zhen Xianghong asked tentatively, "Will it work if I sign the agreement? What if I accidentally tell others..."
"No." The man smiled and said, "It has a skill effect. When you are about to speak the truth, it will automatically be silenced."
Zhen Xianghong: "If you don't sign..."
The man said: "Then we can only use another method, such as erasing the memory..."
Wouldn’t that mean I’d forget my grandma and mom in paradise? Zhen Xianghong was startled and immediately signed his name.

February 12th, Fantasy Paradise.
After receiving a response on the Lantern Festival, Liu Meilan immediately packed up and went to the park for an interview the next day. To her surprise, the person conducting the interview was a girl who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old.
The girl had short dark green hair, wore a beret, a short-sleeved windbreaker, and camel-colored boots. She looked very delicate, but had a cool expression. She was Duoduo.
When the interviewees first saw the interviewer's expression, some were surprised, some disappointed, and some felt insulted. Only Liu Meilan quickly calmed down, figuring that with the advanced technology at Fantasyland, perhaps the person standing before them was just an adult disguised as a child? After all, few children could remain calm in front of so many adults. After Duoduo asked her many professional questions about the job, Liu Meilan felt even more reassured.
However, there were many people who came to the park for interviews, including some with doctoral degrees and even more with masters. Liu Meilan herself only had an undergraduate degree, and she was so old and had a special child, so she was very worried about whether she could pass the interview.
Looking at the resume Liu Meilan handed over, Duoduo's expression remained indifferent until she asked a few questions and heard that Liu Meilan had been a rolling sheep in the book tour for several days. Her eyes lit up and she suddenly made the decision, "Okay, it's you!"
Liu Meilan took up the position just like that.
Today is her first day on the job.
The park staff, or now I should say colleagues, led her to a newly opened area behind the Fantasy Ranch and said to her, "From now on, your job will be to take care of these little guys."
Liu Meilan nodded, "I know." She thought the park was going to open a small zoo, and she had been reading books about animal care these days. A few days ago, she went to the zoo to learn about it. Although it was a last-minute effort, she felt that it would be of some use.
She was stunned until she saw a bunch of small fur balls hidden secretly behind the rockery and animal enrichment tools.
Is she dazzled? Isn't that a rolling sheep?
She was just in a daze when suddenly a bleating sound was heard. Then a small coal ball rushed out from the corner and bumped into her, then rolled to the ground, staring at her and bleating, as if to say, we are very fierce, you'd better not bully us!
Liu Meilan: ...
She smiled unconsciously.
He took out baskets of food from the box behind him and said, "Dear ones, it's time to eat!"
