"Sister Nan, where did you go after you got separated from us? Did you encounter any danger?" Blore took the little sea otter off Ma Tuan's head and asked Nan Song curiously while shaking his feet.
"We've been through so much. I didn't even dare to call the kids there. They were just dead. They would come up to us and threaten us at the slightest provocation, and in the end, they had to deal with them themselves...
…In the end, we were all swallowed up by the black mist that woman had created. When we opened our eyes, we were each locked in a pool of water with eighteen large locks, leaving only our heads hanging above. Strange-looking coffins were floating around us. I was a little worried that one might float over and hit us on the head.
According to Jiu Yizhi's passionate narration, this journey can be described as magnificent.
But Xiankelai and Matuan still couldn't help laughing. Xiankelai laughed because he had seen the real scene. In the deep black abyss without a trace of light, old and broken coffins were floating everywhere, and the other four people were all locked in the water, with only their heads exposed. When they found someone coming, they all looked over. If they hadn't been locked, they would have been unable to swim and sunk into the water, and there was no way they could wait for him. No, they could swim in the coffins. Forget it, the scene at that time just made him want to laugh every time.
"Ahem!" Jiu Yizhi coughed twice in dissatisfaction, which made Xiankelai put away his smile, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Go on, what happened next?" Ma Tuan urged. He was already attracted by Jiu Yizhi's description and couldn't wait to know what happened next.
Jiu Yizhi rolled his eyes at him and continued, "Then..."
"Later, Lu'e seemed to sense that someone had joined this time track. She used some trickery and spirit entry to roughly determine your exact location. Unexpectedly, you were actually in the same time period as us, so she asked me to go find you while she stayed behind to deal with the female ghost. I don't know how she managed to pick up two other classmates, but then we inexplicably entered a different time point. Maybe it was just one thing leading to another."
Xianmenlai took over the conversation with a smile and explained to everyone.
"Oh, it feels like I haven't encountered any useful clues along the way. It's so confusing." Blore scratched his head, the little sea otter on his thigh was hooking the chain hanging from his body.
"Things are indeed a bit confusing. It feels like several things are mixed together. On the way, I asked Nansong and others, and the main issues we are facing now are nothing more than those few.
First of all, there is the illusion we experienced. Nansong said that the monsters fell from the bottom of the snow-capped mountains and became nutrients for the sacred tree, and the sacred tree gave them new life. I think that sacred tree represents the statue that you, Broll, found at the bottom of Snake Lake, even though Ma Tuan said that it was a betrayed god.
Could those monsters, constantly dying and reborn, represent us humans? Fleas live and die in the blink of an eye. To the gods, who endure eternity, humans are merely small acts of life that provide them with a little joy amidst their vast existence. What about the snowy mountains, the blanketing snow? And what about the cloud-like brocade-like cloth brought out at the end? It's so confusing.
In the cave's fantasy world, it seems there were two sisters in this kingdom: one presided over government, the other guarded the frontier. But in the end, both died. History is always written by the victors. In the articles we read, it's clearly the elder sister who killed the younger sister, so why are there so many legends about the younger sister? Even a small village is named after her. It's truly baffling.
Moreover, according to common sense, if the sister was truly as evil as the illusion claimed, why would anyone still want to commemorate her? Therefore, there must be some unknown secret hidden here. Perhaps, the true history is not as simple and clear as we see it, but full of twists and turns and complexities. Perhaps, the true truth is hidden in the long river of time, waiting for us to unveil its mysterious veil...
Moreover, the true history is told by the victorious nations, while all the cruel truths are merely told here by the defeated nations. Now, what supporters are willing to continue this spirit and choose us to become these unparalleled voyeurs, to peek into the true history of thousands of years ago, to continue this history that has never been interrupted for thousands of years?
Lu Nanyao seemed to have been thinking about it for a long time, and she expressed all her thoughts.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent, including Nansong, who was driving the wobbling Xingjiao bus in front.
"Ahem, Xiao Nan Yao, now that you mention it, it's really strange. The illusion we experienced was full of fog and mazes. Isn't it a bit like the history that has been messed up for so many years? What about those weird zombies that appeared in it? And those strange and complicated texts, and those murals that seem to be quite old? It's too confusing now. Not only do we have to see the history of the two sisters, but we also have to see the history of the country. Maybe, we even have to see the war between this alien race and humans. Not to mention the eight of us, even if there are eighty people, we may not be able to finish reading it." Xianke clapped his hands beside him, and found that it was even more confusing after sorting it out.
The wind blew in with heavy rain, and the cold raindrops slammed against the car windows, splashing water everywhere. The atmosphere inside the car was inexplicably solemn, and everyone's face was more or less filled with worry and confusion, excluding Ma Tuan and Lu E, who were wearing masks.
Everyone realized that this task might be more complex and difficult than they had imagined. They needed to deal not only with the history of the sisters, but also with the history of the entire nation, and even potentially with the war between aliens and humans. This vast amount of information was undoubtedly a huge challenge.
