"Have you ever looked up at the stars at night?" Xia Fan asked slowly after
being silent for a while.
Faced with this intractable problem, Chu Pu was a little confused for a while.
But she still answered truthfully, "Of course, there are spells in alchemy
that are closely related to celestial phenomena. Although I'm not good at it,
I have studied a few things."
"What if I told you that these stars are fake?"
"What did you say?" Chu Pu couldn't help being stunned, "Fake?"
"It's not just the stars, it's the sun, the moon, or in a sense, you've never
seen a real day and night, and you've never seen a real sky."
What is he... kidding?
Chu Pu stared into his eyes, trying to identify Xia Fan's thoughts.
If it were someone else, she would have taken this remark as a tease and
walked away. Even a few days in the morning, like when the issue was brought
up in the initial meeting, she would do it. But after going through the
underground, Chu Pu found that he could no longer ignore any of the man's
words.
Even if it sounds so absurd.
No, Yuheng's heart skipped a beat. The point was not whether what he said was
true or not, but rather
"How did you determine the truth?"
"Because I have seen it." Xia Fan replied briefly.
To Chu Pu's surprise, she could not hear any guilty conscience in this
sentence.
"Can you meet me too?" In this case, she decided to go straight in.
The latter rejected her, "Unless you can pass the examination of the bureau
and become one of us. Otherwise, the more you know about this matter, the more
dangerous you will be."
Danger?
Where does the danger come from?
Maybe this statement is just a pretense, the other party is just unwilling to
let the secrets leak too much. Chu Pu thought for a while, "If what you said
is true, don't we live in a false world? But past experience has proved that
the changes between night and day are real, for example, evil spirits are
always in the middle of the night. There's more activity, it can't be fake,
right? Unless..."
Speaking of which, she suddenly froze.
Then a strong fear struck, making her shiver involuntarily.
If the observations themselves are false, can the conclusions remain correct?
It's like locking prisoners in a dark dungeon, lighting candles every once in
a while and feeding them food. The prisoners will naturally associate the
candles with the food. But in fact the two can appear completely different at
the same time, or the poison or sword can be delivered at the moment of
lighting the candle.
In the same way, if something deliberately keeps the evil spirits active for a
certain period of time, and then makes that period of time in the night...
"Shepherd." Chu Pu finally murmured two words.
"I can't be sure, but I'm amazed by the sharpness of your thinking." Xia Fan
clapped his hands lightly, "Since you can think of this, you shouldn't need me
to answer the previous questions. What should I do after the unification?
Nothing will be a celebration of victory, and humanity will not rest easy."
"The Seven Star Privy House has never looked outside..."
Yu Heng made this sentence pop into his mind.
Gu Zhi
If Xia Fan's exploration of the world has really reached this point, then it
is completely reasonable for him to say this from a high point, and Qi Xing
doesn't even have the qualifications to refute it.
"Your explanation has benefited me a lot." Chu Pu cupped his hands and said,
"I hope I can see the real starry sky one day."
Xia Fan raised his hand in return, "It's you, is it okay to go back like
this?"
"I don't know if you mean..."
"Senior Seven Stars." He paused, "Although you are the envoy of Yuheng, will
others readily accept your personal decision? Sometimes, the sword pierced
from the inside hurts more."
Chu Pu chuckled, "Are you worried about my personal safety? I was chosen as
the successor of Yuheng Envoy not because of anything else, but simply because
of my ability to win. In this regard, the Privy Council can definitely be
called fair. Of course. , there will definitely be opponents inside, but I
will convince them."
Compared to the immaturity of diplomacy, she was full of confidence when she
mentioned this.
Therefore, Xia Fan did not say any more, "I will write another letter, you
hand it over to Your Majesty on the front line, and the war will be over."
Chu Pu nodded and got up to leave. But when she got to the door, she stopped
again.
"That...when I was underground, I drank a drink that was both like medicine
and tea..." Yuheng Shi paused, "I heard from Gong Shufeng that it was brewed
with a mixed powder. Can you send me some powder?"
As long as she took a sip, the incredible and magnificent spectacle would
appear in her mind.
The unknown is always the best reward for the other person.
"No problem." Xia Fan nodded.
...
After Yuhengshi left, he got up and went to the study in the back room, where
Taxis and Momora were waiting for him.
Judging from the expressions of the two, they clearly heard the conversation.
"What you didn't want to talk about in the letter is this, right?" Taksis
Yongyi said sternly, "Really or not? This is not a trivial matter!"
Xia Fan asked them to come over, one of the reasons is not to repeat the
explanation twice, "If it is fake, then I will be a lot easier."
"Can you elaborate?"
"Of course, it's time for you to know the true face of the world." Xia Fan sat
down opposite the two of them and gave a general account of the shelter. This
is not an easy topic, so he didn't talk about it on the day he saw the other
party. As a close person whom he hadn't seen for a long time, the first day
was naturally spent with the theme of banquets and reminiscences. At the same
time, he also needs to understand the situation on the West Pole, so that it
is convenient for thinking control to plan the next step.
After listening to this, the two fell into a long silence~www.mtlnovel.com~
After a while, Taksis was the first to speak, "So the boundary of the sea is
actually the boundary wall of this huge man-made shelter, and in the The cold
and dark areas beyond that are the original appearance of the world?"
Compared with a few years ago, the dragon girl's appearance has not changed
much, but her demeanor has become more and more calm. Even with such amazing
news, her tone has not been shaken.
The war on the Mage Tower and the revival of the Church of Hera undoubtedly
made her grow a lot.
"Have you been outside the border seas?" Xia Fan said unexpectedly.
"That's not true." Taxis shook her head, "I have more contact with Princess
Twilight Night, and I also heard from her that someone in Nata Ting had broken
the seal of the border. Unfortunately, none of this group of people survived.
The one who came down, the only known Duke of Aurora, is missing."
"I've heard of this too." Momora shook her ears, her expression obviously much
lower than Taxis, "At that time, everyone either thought it was a wicked lair,
or thought it was a scam at all. I didn't expect it to be real, and it's more
real than the world we live in. If it wasn't for you, I couldn't believe
it..."
