Chapter 64 Chapter 64 But there are still many ordinary people who believe in God...
Hongguo became anxious when she heard this. She had known about it a long time ago, but couldn't she say it?
She opened her mouth to speak, wanting to ask Changzong to stop talking, but her reason told her that Changzong had found a cave full of jade mines and sealed the passage with stones, so he could talk here.
After Gu Changzong said this, which was both expected and surprising to everyone, he stopped talking.
Hong Guo didn't dare to urge him to speak next. Director Wei was lost in thought and didn't urge her either. Since they were already here, there was no need for Gu Changzong to be mysterious anymore.
Xu Wenying was impatient. It was strange that there was such a large jade vein here, not to mention that it was near her family's mine. Was this artificial excavation done by her ancestors? But why was there no record of it at home? Instead, it was found by an outsider. She couldn't help but feel resentful towards her ancestors, and at the same time questioned Gu Changzong.
"How do you know there is such a place near my mine? If there is such a place, why bother to dig a new mine several kilometers away? Wouldn't it be more labor-saving to dig from my abandoned mine?"
Gu Changzong didn't want to answer her question at all. Hongguo was better. She knew what he was thinking without him saying anything.
Gu Changzong was reluctant to say it, but Hongguo still had to explain: "Your family's mine has been abandoned. Moreover, more than ten years ago, when the Four Olds were destroyed, you personally reported that your parents abandoned your brother and sister in the mine and performed feudal superstitious sacrifices. Now the mine has been surrounded, and many of your neighbors and fellow villagers from that time are still alive. Are you really not afraid of being criticized?"
Xu Wenying blushed with resentment. It was like a mine where miners had an accident. No more large-scale construction could be done, otherwise there would be curious people who would sneak into the mine. Gu Changzong dug a new mine, and everyone said that the new boss thought the previous mine was unlucky, so he would rather dig a new one and try his luck. Although it was a little troublesome, it effectively avoided suspicion.
She asked Gu Changzong the key question: "You just said that you are not from this side. What kind of world is your other side? How did you get here? The three of you would rather die than tell us. Do you dare to tell us now? Don't fool us."
Gu Changzong asked Director Wei: "Who is the one in charge between you two? She is really annoying, can you let her quit?"
Wei Liangzheng was steady and reserved, always leaving room for maneuver: "If Comrade Wen Ying continues to target you like this, I will ask her to withdraw. But since you can agree to let her come down today, you should let her hear the end, right?"
Gu Changzong said coldly, "You don't think I will tell you, do you? Can you guarantee that what I say is true? I'm not that kind. You have to feel it yourself to understand. Let me make it clear first. If you can't stand it and go crazy, it's none of my business. You two decide."
Xu Wenying had to figure it out no matter what, and Wei Liangzheng had to figure it out, saying that they would continue even if they couldn't get up alive.
Gu Changzong: "That won't lead to death."
Hongguo was very nervous. Would she participate in such a difficult task? Changzong said Xu Wenying might go crazy. He was not trying to scare her. Xu Wenying could stay in the mine for several days. She had great perseverance. If she went crazy, Hongguo would definitely not be able to do it.
Gu Changzong took Hongguo's hand to one side and whispered quietly: "Guoguo, stay with me, go and take a look, it's okay."
Hongguo believed Gu Changzong, and since he said it was okay, she dared to go.
Xu Wenying was already quite nervous. Seeing Gu Changzong and Jiang Hongguo whispering, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you have to whisper at this time to make us nervous?"
Gu Changzong did not answer her. He just asked everyone to find a place to sit down. He let Jiang Hongguo sit next to him and turned off the flashlight and headlamp. The light, which was not very bright to begin with, dimmed by half.
Wei Liangzheng followed suit and turned off the light in his hand. In the flickering green light, Xu Wenying reluctantly turned off the light and muttered, "It's just a trick."
Suddenly, a sharp voice said, "This is just a trick. If we don't do this, will they be willing to give up their children?"
The voice was cold and heavy, and it definitely could not have been made by any of the four people present.
Xu Wenying really wanted to ask if Gu Changzong was deliberately being mysterious to scare people, but she had already suffered a few setbacks. If it happened again, she would never get involved again. She clenched her teeth to prevent them from chattering.
Wei Liangzheng guessed that something important would happen after the lights were turned off, but he didn't expect to hear a sound. Would he see a picture next? No wonder he had to turn off the light. He concentrated and held his breath, ready to deal with anything.
When Hongguo heard this out-of-this-world sound, she was so frightened that she dared not breathe. She grabbed Changzong's hand tightly and clung to him, wondering what was going on.
Gu Changzong held Hongguo's small hand with his big hand and patted it gently a few times: "Guoguo, don't be afraid. This is the memory left here by the fellow villagers of Xu Wenying's ancestors who integrated everything about themselves into the ore before they died. Ordinary people can't open it, only people like us can open it."
It turned out to be the memory of the same kind. Hongguo could not understand the construction and existence of this mine, but she accepted that it should be the result of exploration by several generations.
Xu Wenying was very depressed. The family secret was not passed down to future generations, but was instead discovered and solved by Gu Changzong.
She really regretted that she shouldn't have confidently asked Gu Changzong and Hongguo to come over.
Wei Liang was filled with fear and terror. The cavity in this jade mine was like a huge recording and video recording device, and what it recorded was memory. Gu Changzong's fellow villagers hundreds or thousands of years ago had this technology, so to what extent had the technology on his side developed now?
Director Wei couldn't help but ask, "Gu Changzong, has the technology in your hometown reached the point where it can do anything?"
Gu Changzong was impatient as if he was embarrassed: "It's not what you think."
I don't know how he did it, but the paused sound continued and the scene appeared, but it was from a first-person perspective. Hongguo felt the steps under him move and he staggered. Fortunately, he was sitting and leaning against Changzong, so he didn't fall.
Xu Wenying was not so lucky. He fell with a thud and it must have been quite painful.
Gu Changzong laughed unkindly, then said, "The record is dynamic, including the jade bricks under your feet. You are putting yourself in the perspective of the person involved. I have chosen the most representative person for you. Feel it before asking questions."
Hong Guo felt like he had turned into a little baby. His hands, feet, and brain were not under control. His eyes and hands were not coordinated, and he had no strength. Was this the perspective of a little kid? It was really difficult for him to help his second uncle avoid disaster.
"This batch of seedlings will mature within 20 days."
“That’s too much of a loss.”
"No other way. The shorter the time, the easier it will be to match. The war is urgent, so we need to hurry up."
Hongguo was placed in a two-meter-long and one-meter-wide trough. Soon something bound her hands and feet. At this moment, she was like a newborn baby being washed and manipulated by the nurse, completely unable to resist. Suddenly, she felt something was wrong. There was a huge suction force that seemed to suck her brain away. However, she could accept the discomfort, so she endured it.
But Xu Wenying's sharp scream frightened Hongguo so much that he trembled.
Gu Changzong hugged Hongguo and said, "This jade cave records everything. You can hear, see and feel it from his perspective. Even the pain is the same. Stop if you can't bear it anymore. Don't force it."
In the dim fluorescent light, Hong Guo saw Director Wei gritting his teeth and enduring. Xu Wenying was already in pain, but Hong Guo was still okay. She turned to look at Chang Zong, and his expression did not change. Did he do something? Or did he help her bear the pain?
Hong Guo couldn't help but hug Chang Zong tightly. Gu Chang Zong patted her to comfort her: "It's okay. It's like you are participating in a movie that has already been made. You can watch and feel it, but you can't change anything."
"Are those children special? Otherwise, they would cry if it hurts so much, right?" Even though she knew she couldn't change anything, Hongguo was still worried.
"Well, they are selected evolved human children, chosen for matching."
"Match what?"
Evolution Hongguo understood that her world had been evolving for hundreds of millions of years, and even a tiny plant had to evolve and adapt to survive to the present. The world of Changzong was even worse. Creatures that wanted to survive had to evolve. They had already evolved so much, and yet they were chosen. What were they matched with?
Gu Changzong did not say anything, but Hong Guo saw it soon. The twenty years of memories were not spent one minute at a time, but flashed by very quickly. Half-human, half-beast creatures appeared, evolving in various directions. Hong Guo saw humans and snakes, humans and birds with wings.
But the characteristics of these animals were different from what she had seen in the zoo. They had some similarities, but they were not exactly the same. One had a tail with thick scales on the lower body, which was very flexible in movement, and a tall body that was completely human, but suddenly a pair of large wings with shiny fur spread out.
"Guoguo, these two are demigods, responsible for carrying out the will of the gods in the temple. The rebels have always claimed that there are no gods in the temple and that this is a trick of these evolved fallen ones, but there are still many ordinary people who believe in gods."
Hongguo is now from the perspective of a little baby. Seeing the big pair of wings flapping, Hongguo is really scared. Moreover, the record in this stone house is too real. Everything is exactly the same as what was perceived on the scene, including vision, pain, touch and smell. Therefore, Hongguo was retching because of the smell of the spread out big feathers.
"Chang Zong, don't the gods in your world take baths?"
Gu Changzong smiled heartily: "Gods also lack water. You can take a bath every day. If you think about it this way, being a god in our world is not that great, right?"
In Hongguo's understanding, water is the source of all things. Without water, how can living things grow? They will definitely lack clothes and clothes, and of course they will not be as good as here.
The joke was over, the atmosphere was relieved, and the information was asked. Hong Guo became serious and asked in confusion: "Chang Zong, the demigods over there look like the gods in our mythology."
But Hongguo's description is just a myth. There are many books that record it, but there is no archaeological evidence. It is a myth. What Changzong brought them to see today is seeing with their own eyes. But they didn't see what these half-human, half-gods wanted to do with these children?
Wei Liangzheng said: "Since you are so strong individually, why don't you develop technology? We already have thermal weapons, but your technology doesn't seem to have developed much?"
Gu Changzong answered him impatiently: "If you were a demigod in the temple, would you allow the ants crawling under the steps to have weapons that can destroy themselves? What evolves is not technology, but the upper limit of individual ability."
Hong Guo didn't want them to argue. Wouldn't they understand everything after reading it? Up to now, her memory was still in that tall and solemn stone house.
Hongguo tugged at Changzong's sleeve: "Go on, I want to know how you got here?"
