Chapter 88 Chapter 88 "Then could you please...
"Then could you please stay here with us for a few days? We will start drawing your appearance right away and will not stop until you are satisfied. What do you think?" The angels in the laboratory looked at Bai Tianming eagerly and asked with eager eyes.
Bai Tianming frowned: "Can you only stay for a few days?"
The angels said quickly, "You can stay here as long as you like! We can build a building just for you, right next to the lab. You can come whenever you want, and we can send you things and data at any time. We only ask that you stay and give us some advice!"
Bai Tianming couldn't help but laugh. "For something like a physical appearance picture, just draw it as you like. You don't have to satisfy me. After all, it's not my face."
The angels nodded repeatedly. "Okay, okay, we understand. We just hope you can help us find the gaps and fill them in. We will pay you. Whatever you want, we will give it to you!"
Their faces were filled with the same expectation: "As long as you stay and help us solve the problem, we will be grateful!"
"Okay," Bai Tianming thought for a moment, then stopped teasing them. He said calmly, "I'll stay here for a few days."
When the first version of the appearance sketch was drawn up, the angels immediately gave the picture to Bai Tianming to look at, but the wind and sand suddenly shook it, making the picture extremely blurry.
Bai Tianming frowned outside the wind and sand. He felt that the picture looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it. Just as he was thinking, the wind and sand blew over again.
The angels sobbed, lowered their heads and wiped their tears, unable to say anything, but looked very sad. Bai Tianming stood opposite them, watching them silently.
A young angel ran out, holding a flowerpot. In the flowerpot was a newly sprouted plant, with a small pink bud hanging low on top of the plant.
"Are you leaving?" The young angel held the flowerpot, looked at Bai Tianming eagerly, and asked him cautiously like a hungry and timid stray cat.
"Yeah," Bai Tianming replied expressionlessly, "Isn't this great? Both the experiments and the mutant plants are making progress. You've already got what you wanted. Why should I stay here?"
The young angel sobbed, wiping his tears while hugging the flower pot, and whispered, "We did get what we wanted, but we didn't want you to leave here. This is not good for us at all."
"Maybe I'll come back in the future," Bai Tianming thought for a moment and said casually, "It's not a difficult thing. If you want to see me, just stay alive and wait until that day."
The young angel wiped away her tears and raised her head. Her eyes were still tearful and red. She frowned, half believing and half doubting. She looked at Bai Tianming and asked tentatively, "Really?"
Bai Tianming nodded: "Really."
"Then do you want to take it away?" The young angel handed the flowerpot in his arms to Bai Tianming to see.
"No," Bai Tianming looked at the expectant plants in the flowerpots and shook his head. "The place I'm going to is not suitable for growing any plants."
"When will you come back?" The young angel put the flowerpot back, began to wipe his tears again, and asked pitifully.
"It's hard to say." Bai Tianming said calmly and shook his head.
"Traveling all the time is definitely not suitable for growing plants," the young angel thought for a moment, then looked at Bai Tianming with red eyes and said, "Please take care of yourself, then."
Bai Tianming nodded: "I know."
The young angel cried again: "Must we go?"
Bai Tianming thought for a moment and said, "I have to leave." He didn't have to leave, but he would have to leave sooner or later. Instead of waiting until later, he might as well leave now. After all, he really had something to do now.
"I heard that it is a very dangerous place..." The young angel wiped his tears, hesitant to speak, and looked at Bai Tianming with great concern. He wanted to persuade him to stay, but he felt that he was determined to leave and there was no point in saying more. So he just shed tears, looking even more pitiful.
"I went there in pursuit of knowledge and glory," Bai Tianming looked at him and said gently, "Nothing will happen."
"If only I could go in your place," the young angel wiped his face fiercely, his entire face beginning to redden. He felt sad and aggrieved, and whispered, "No one who was chosen to go in the past has ever returned. If I were to go, at least you could still stay here. Everyone needs you. But now it's you who's going. What are we going to do in the future?"
He lowered his head and wiped his tears again.
Bai Tianming patted his shoulder and spoke seriously, "Just do what you need to do in the future, just like before I showed up. It's nothing."
The young angel raised his head and looked at Bai Tianming: "What about Joshua? He is not here now. If he knew that you left while he was away, he would definitely be very sad."
"It's not like I won't come back again." Bai Tianming silently looked away.
"He won't accept it," sighed the young angel. "No one knows when you will come back, and how can we wait any longer?"
Bai Tianming thought about it and felt that what he said was right. If he left directly, Joshua would inevitably be sad. It would be better to leave a message than nothing.
Bai Tianming instructed him, "I order you to wait until I come back."
The young angel seemed to understand and nodded: "I will tell him."
"I'm leaving." Bai Tianming waved to them and walked into the open door behind him.
There was a lot of crying.
Bai Tianming summoned a gust of wind to blow away the gray particles in front of his eyes. The crying disappeared, the picture disappeared, and all that was left in front of him was a sloppy and dilapidated botanical garden, as if he had woken up one night and everything was turned upside down.
Crooked plants lay on the ground, and the unconscious angels were still unconscious. The huge plant that broke out of the ground in the middle bent down, and a person jumped out of it.
He ran over like a gust of wind, threw himself into Bai Tianming's arms, hugged him, and said with great emotion: "Long time no see, Master."
Bai Tianming touched his hair and confirmed that he was the pot of flowers that the young angel had held in the previous picture. He looked at him and said slowly like an elderly elder, "You have grown up now."
Isaac smiled brightly and said, "After so many years, if I haven't grown at all, I would be so sorry for the cultivation my master has given me."
As a giant mutant plant, it is not wrong to say that it was once cultivated by Bai Tianming.
Bai Tianming smiled at him and asked him, "Did you spread those gray particles just now?"
Isaac nodded and said with some pride, "Those gray particles are called memory molecules, and they have some hallucinogenic and hypnotic effects.
Ordinary people will fall asleep quickly after exposure, have hallucinations in their dreams, and nothing will happen when they wake up. They usually will not be unable to wake up.
For some stronger people, the vibrations between memory molecules and space, coupled with some hallucinogenic effects, will connect them to past time and space, allowing them to see their own past. "
Isaac paused here, looking at Bai Tianming eagerly, hesitant to speak and asked tentatively: "Is the master okay?"
Bai Tianming smiled and said, "It's okay. What could be the problem? I just happened to see some things from the past."
He was silent for a moment, then slowly asked, "Will people in the past realize what happened here?"
Isaac thought about it, feeling a little confused, frowned, and explained, "People with high inspiration may be aware of it, but most likely they can't see it. People with low inspiration will only feel like the wind is blowing and won't think of anything."
He asked Bai Tianming, "Master, have you seen anyone from the past who noticed what's going on here?"
He was really perceptive. Bai Tianming was silent for a moment and then replied, "I'm not sure. He didn't look back. Maybe he did, maybe he didn't. But it's all in the past. It doesn't matter."
Isaac nodded doubtfully: "It's not important?"
Bai Tianming smiled and asked him, "Were you in the botanical garden before? I didn't feel you before I came in. How did you suddenly grow here?"
Isaac laughed when Bai Tianming mentioned this. "I was already in the botanical garden before, but I existed as a seed. I felt like my master was coming, so I took root and sprouted, and grew directly here."
He turned around and said, "It's too boring if I keep my eyes open. I have nothing to do, and I can't leave here. I turned into a seed to prolong my dormancy. Now that my master is back, there's no need for me to dormant anymore, so it doesn't matter if I grow like this."
"Then you've overturned all the plants around you," Bai Tianming looked around and asked him with a half-smile, "and you've knocked out all the angels here. If the other angels see you, won't they blame you?"
Isaac smiled and shook Bai Tianming's arm, then came close to him like a puppy wagging its tail, saying coquettishly, "My master is here. As long as I tell them who I am, they won't blame me. It's too late to celebrate my master's return. I can't be sad when I'm happy."
Bai Tianming nodded thoughtfully. It didn't sound dangerous, but he felt like he was missing something. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Where's Joshua?"
Isaac was stunned for a moment, the smile on his face slowly fading. He lowered his head, drew circles in the soil with his shoe, and said hesitantly, "Maybe he's a little angry? I'm not sure. I haven't seen him in a long time. He seems to be doing something outside recently and rarely comes back. Maybe he won't be able to make it this time, but it doesn't matter. If he doesn't come back, everyone will be very happy."
Isaac's voice became smaller and smaller, like a deflated balloon, and gradually became quiet.
He blinked, and suddenly a guilty look appeared on his face.
