Chapter 460 Tailor-made Position
His perception returned to his flesh and blood, and his consciousness sank into his body. The complex information transmitted from the "star body" in the distant space gradually retreated into the depths of his mind. After a while of adaptation, Yu Sheng opened his eyes in the dim light.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Irene lying on his stomach with her head drooping, sleeping soundly.
After moving her body a little, Irene rolled off his stomach, rolled around on the bed, sat up, closed her eyes and waved her hand: "Me! Alice doll! Buy me a cell phone!"
As soon as the voice fell, the little doll fell down again, buried its head in the quilt, and muttered the next sentence in a muffled voice: "...A phone watch will also work..."
Yu Sheng: “…”
After confirming that the little thing was really just talking in his sleep, he smiled helplessly and sighed, then tiptoed out of the bed.
The four wooden boxes in the corner were still neatly arranged. One of them had its lid open and was empty, while the other three had their lids tightly closed, and a faint, even snoring sound could be heard from inside.
Yu Sheng was very curious about why a doll would snore when sleeping, and he had been curious about this for a long time.
Don’t use the mass-produced ones - when they “sleep”, they just lie on the storage shelf and become silent, almost like being turned off.
After thinking for a while, Yu Sheng turned around and looked at Irene, who had changed her position on the bed.
He was once worried that Irene would not be able to adapt to these boxes. After all, the little doll would have to roll and crawl all over the bed to sleep, and it might move six miles in one night. There was no room in the narrow wooden box for her to toss and turn like that. But now it seems... this guy's body will sleep more soundly in the wooden box?
It's obviously the same consciousness, but it can be divided into different "states" according to different bodies. It can control a large number of mass-produced bodies, and can also develop strange abilities according to the different body materials. Recently, she even tinkered with a new ability to sleep in one body while the other body moves normally...
To use Yuanhao Zhenren’s catchphrase - what is the principle behind this?
Yu Sheng couldn't help but feel curious, then he shook his head and casually pulled open the thick curtain.
The sun shines into the house and it is already early morning outside the window.
The morning light was golden above the distant sea of clouds. Birds were flying among the woods on both sides of the Guanyun Terrace. Occasionally, swaying figures could be seen on the mountain path. They were most likely the disciples of Qianfeng Lingshan who had risen early to practice.
Yu Sheng calmed himself down, and another perception emerged from the depths of his mind - the long rainy season in the equatorial region, the lights of thousands of homes in Mo City, the cold and dry uninhabited areas at the poles, the crystal structure deep in the earth's crust, the ancient mining platform, and the large and small aircraft passing through the planet's atmosphere.
At the same time, he could also sense the iron body of the Alien Hotel, the grass growing and birds flying in the valley, and the mountain springs flowing...
Yu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly, letting his consciousness slowly dissipate, and then continued to gather and concentrate them on a specific "direction". He carefully sensed the various changes in this process and practiced controlling each end of perception.
This has become his daily "exercise" program recently.
Then after a while, he heard rustling noises coming from the bed behind him. Turning back, he saw Irene getting up with messy hair. The little doll looked up at him dazedly for a while, and finally reacted: "...Good morning - why are you up so early?"
Yu Sheng waved his hand and said, "Wake up first, comb your hair and wash your face."
"oh."
Irene muttered something, and the three boxes in the corner opened at the same time. The other three Irenes came out from inside. They found the small combs for dolls in the bedside table with ease, climbed onto the bed and started combing each other's hair and tidying up their clothes. After they were done, they lined up to wash their hands and faces...
Yu Sheng was watching this scene from the side, and suddenly he felt at this moment like an old father who finally saw his child learn to take care of himself - where did this inexplicable sense of relief and regret come from?
As a result, just as he had such a sigh in his mind, he heard a loud splash from the bathroom, and then the little puppet inside shouted: "Yusheng! I fell into the pool!"
Yu Sheng: “…”
After a while, Yu Sheng found a hair dryer and started to blow dry Irene's clothes and body. The soaked little doll stood on the ground, hugging the bed legs, opening its mouth in the hot air of the hair dryer: "Ah wow, ah wow, ah wow——"
Yu Sheng looked at the little thing and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He took great effort to dry her whole body, then he said casually while packing up the hair dryer, "I have to go to Queyun Palace later. You all should come with me. I have something to tell you."
Irene was walking to the bedside table at this time. She tiptoed to pick up the ominous star and casually placed it next to her head, letting it revolve around her head. When she heard Yu Sheng's words, she turned around and asked curiously, "Ah? What's the matter?"
"Do you still remember Shuji?"
Irene rolled her eyes. “Nonsense, of course I remember.”
"That planet is now 'connected' to me - you could think of it as my new body."
Irene suddenly froze there without moving, and it looked as if her joints were stuck. Only a heartless ball was still spinning around her head.
"Are you so surprised?" Yu Sheng rolled his eyes at her. "Didn't the valley and the spaceship come here in this way before?"
Irene thought for a moment and said, "Yes, really?"
…
"So, this is the situation over there at Shuji."
In the main hall of Queyun Palace, Yu Sheng spoke to Yuan Ling and Yuan Hao with a frank look on his face.
Hu Li was sitting next to him, and Luna was standing behind him silently as usual. Irene couldn't stand the boredom anymore, so she ran to the entrance of the hall and played ball by herself.
Yuan Ling was sitting on the chair opposite, stroking his beard with a subtle look on his face.
Yuan Hao sat next to his junior fellow apprentice, looking up at the beams of the hall, pinching his fingers in the air and muttering something. After deducing the secrets of heaven for a long time, he finally uttered a sentence: "...What is the principle behind this?"
Yu Sheng was delighted when he heard this. He had expected that the old commander would say this since this morning.
"Don't look at me. I can't explain the principle clearly," he waved his hand and said to the two gods in front of him, "I came here to tell you about the current situation. After all, Shuji is your property, but mine is an irreversible process... It's quite embarrassing to talk about it."
"To be honest, this is something my brother and I never thought of," Yuan Ling thought for a moment and said seriously, "Can I understand it this way - you are Shu Ji now?"
"Mo Ran told me a phrase called 'becoming the universe'," Yu Sheng said, "This is her understanding."
Yuan Ling and Yuan Hao looked at each other, as if they were making some decision.
After a few seconds, Yuan Hao spoke tentatively: "Since that's the case, let me ask you one question... do you want to just become Shuji's 'Star Guardian'?"
This time, Yu Sheng's expression froze.
After two or three seconds, he opened his mouth: "...Ah?"
"You also know that the original Star Guardian Elder Dao Heng of Shuji was killed by the Star Deviation Body. Now the disaster is imminent, and this position is still vacant," Yuan Hao said seriously, "and you solved the disaster of the Star Deviation Body, and now you have 'transformed the universe' in Shuji. If I think about it carefully, there is probably no one in the entire Feiyu Star Region who is more suitable for the position of 'Shuji Star Guardian' than you."
"Wait a minute, I need to consult," Yu Sheng waved his hand quickly, "What exactly is the position of 'Star Guardian'? Can we let an outsider do it?"
"Star Guardians are positions specially set up for remote planets. As the name implies, they are people who protect the safety of a planet," Yuan Hao nodded. "Due to the special nature of 'practitioners' themselves, Star Guardians do not directly participate in the management of local planets. In fact, they are not responsible for the 'law and order' of a specific city or place or the order on the planet. What Star Guardians protect is the 'planet' itself. For example, natural disasters, such as foreign enemies... When there are no such disasters, Star Guardians don't have to do anything."
He paused, and looked into Yu Sheng's eyes again: "As for letting an 'outsider' do it... In fact, it's not a question of whether it can be done or not, but you are actually the star guardian of Shuji. Apart from other things, if a meteorite that can move mountains and fill the sea really hits Shuji, will you block it?"
"Then I must block it...ah," Yu Sheng also reacted at this time, "Okay, then I understand if you say so."
"That's right," the old general on the opposite side laughed, "Not only do you have the title of 'Star Guardian' now, you may even be the most worthy 'Star Guardian' in the history of Feiyu Star Region. This is no longer a matter of whether Taixu Lingshu recognizes it or not, but a fact as heavy as a mountain - and I have to say one more thing for my own benefit, if you are willing to accept this 'title', it will really be a good thing for the people of Shuji now."
Yu Sheng touched his chin, thoughtfully.
"The people of Shuji are in a panic now. For cultivators, many people are not afraid of lack of food and clothing, but the planet under their feet. At this time, a great man who helped them solve the disaster of the derivative star body is now willing to go back to continue to protect Shuji. That is enough to reassure hundreds of millions of people - even if you do nothing, they will have the courage to continue to survive on that planet." Yuan Ling stroked his beard, "not to mention that you are not really doing nothing... You really help them support the mountains and rivers for thousands of miles."
When Yu Sheng heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the two people opposite him, and after a long while, he finally nodded slowly.
"Since you've come to this point... let's do as you say. After all, compared to my current situation, I only have the title of 'Star Guardian'."
Yuan Ling and Yuan Hao looked at each other, and a smile appeared in the corners of their eyes.
Then they both stood up at the same time, clasped their fists and bowed to Yu Sheng again: "Then we would like to thank Mr. Yu for taking on this important task..."
"Stop, stop, stop, you two are doing this again!"
