Next, Jing Jiu's performance confirmed Zhong Lizi's conjecture.

Standing in front of the window and looking at the galaxy in the night sky, he suddenly said, "I want to sleep for a while."

Even a hardcore person would definitely be tired after playing games for nine days without sleep.

Zhong Lizi was thinking like this, but was surprised to find that Jing Jiu walked into the bedroom and lay down on the bed.

The reason she was surprised was of course not because it was her bed, but because Jing Jiu always just lay on the chair on the balcony and never took a step into the bedroom.

What surprised her even more was that Jing Jiu actually fell asleep not long after lying on the bed.

There was no snoring or grinding of teeth, but she knew he was really asleep.

It was not the same as when he closed his eyes in the underground block apartment, on the terrace.

What happened?

Zhong Lizi opened the game cabin and found that Jing Jiu hadn't completely exited the interactive system with some relief.

Following the instructions, she chose the third-party experience mode to connect to the system and start playback.

A brand new world appeared before her eyes.

The verdant mountains, the endless sea of ​​clouds, the ocean in the twilight, everything seems so real, yet so false.

The reason why it is false is because it is more beautiful than imagined.

To be honest, it is because the world of Xianxia in human imagination should probably look like this.

It is conceivable how much resources Xuanyu Company has invested in the game "The Way to the Sky".

Of course she had read the original book, and looked at the picture in front of her curiously, guessing where it was in the book.

Gradually, those unfamiliar scenery corresponded one-to-one with the place names in the book.

It turns out that here are the green mountains and peaks.

It turns out that this is Chaoge City.

It turns out that this is Guocheng Temple.

It turns out that this is Sanqianyuan.

Is the vast white in the distance the snowfield? Why can't I see that lone peak?

In addition to the scenery, the more important thing is of course the people.

Zhong Lizi followed Jing Jiu's character to many places and saw many people.

Only then did she realize that Jing Jiu actually chose the solo mode, and didn't interact with the beta players once.

The people he saw in those places were all characters from the game.

Also, he didn't speak to those characters.

According to the program design of the internal test of the game, if the player does not actively interact with the game characters, the game characters will only look at you quietly and ignore you.

Jing Jiu didn't seem to care about these things.

He just wants to find those people in this world and sit by their side for a while.

That's fine.

He listened to the piano in Sanqianyuan.

He listened to the bell at Guocheng Temple.

He listened to monkey calls all night in Qingshan.

When doing these things, there will be different people around him.

The bloody flying sword dyed the sky red.

The emerald green bamboos quiet the cave.

Above the sea of ​​clouds, a pair of long legs kept swinging.

The wind and snow never stopped, and the windows of the Dao Temple were open.

Purple flowers are also blooming in Taichang Temple.

The sound of the bone flute is disabled.

At these times, there are people around him.

Zhong Lizi looked at those people with wide eyes.

She knows who those people are.

She had some bad thoughts.

At this time, the morning light illuminated Sanqianyuan.

...

...

The game hatch opens.

The morning light fell on Haizi in the distance, and also illuminated the windows of the hotel.

Zhong Lizi rubbed his eyes, a little reddish.

She watched the nine-day replay in one night, feeling a little tired and emotional.

The wristband vibrated slightly, and the light curtain popped up. It was an email from Xuanyu Company, signed by Mr. President himself.

After reading the email, she found that Jing Jiu had woken up when she walked back to the suite.

He was lying on the patio chair as usual, as if nothing had happened, and he hadn't slept in the bedroom.

"Xianyu Company said that the initial design you made was too perfect. The internal beta players were very excited and asked if you would like to authorize them." She asked softly.

Jing Jiu thought that if portrait rights were involved, he should ask those people.

Some people have died, and more people are still alive, it's just... It's been more than a hundred years since they left Chaotian Continent, and I don't know how many people died.

Seeing that he was distracted, Zhong Lizi hummed lightly.

Jing Jiu came to his senses and said, "Use it casually, if you have troubles in the future, don't blame me."

Zhong Lizi thought to himself what is the trouble? You have been really weird these days... After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Are you okay?"

Jing Jiu looked at Chaoyang who was about to jump out of the earth's crust, and hummed.

Zhong Lizi plucked up his courage and said, "I know that you wrote that story, and you have a lot of affection for the characters in it, but...don't be too persistent and get too involved in the drama."

Jing Jiu looked back at her and asked, "What do you want to say?"

"I'm afraid you can't tell the truth from the fake."

Zhong Lizi rubbed his hands nervously, and said, "No matter how real and affectionate they are, those people are just your imagination, not real."

The current game cabins are getting better and better, especially the new game cabins, and the various experiences are very realistic. Those with mental defects who stay in the game for too long can easily fail to distinguish between reality and the virtual world.

Jing Jiu said blankly, "I'm not crazy."

"But you sit inside with those characters and don't talk, it looks weird." Zhong Lizi said in a low voice.

Jing Jiu said: "Maybe they are fake in this world, but they are real in other worlds."

Zhong Lizi couldn't understand this sentence, and asked curiously: "You sat with the former emperor for a day, sat with Liu Ci for a day, sat with Yuan Qijing for a day, sat for a day with Daoist Taiping, sat for half a day with Zen Zi, sat with the disciples of Shenmo Peak and Zhuo Rusui for a long time, sat with an unknown old monk for a while, and finally sat with Lian Sanyue for three days... But Jing Jiu in the book is the closest to Zhao Layue, why don't you sit with her for a while?"

Jing Jiu thought that little Layue would definitely come out, and they would meet each other naturally in this world, so what's the rush?

Seeing that he was silent again, Zhong Lizi thought he had said something wrong, turned around and went to the bathroom to wash up.

The mist brought up by the hot water hazy and beautiful that face again.

While brushing her teeth, she looked at herself in the mirror, finally made up her mind, turned around and left the room.

"I'm going to the main star in a few days."

Talking while brushing your teeth will always appear very vague and difficult to be heard clearly.

Obviously, she was trying to hide her emotions in this way.

These days, her nervousness and anxiety are also related to this matter.

If we leave here, I don't know when we will see you again.

I want to ask about your future plans, but you are playing games, alas.

Jing Jiu said, "Together."

Zhong Lizi was stunned before he came to his senses. After confirming that he had heard correctly, his eyes were full of surprises, and he held his toothbrush and said, "Are you going to the main star too?"

Jing Jiu hummed.

Zhong Lizi knew that he definitely didn't go to the main star to accompany him...at least it couldn't be all to accompany him, so he asked curiously: "What are you going to do?"

"Find someone." Jing Jiu said.

Zhong Lizi knew who he was looking for, and said in surprise: "That person is actually on the main star? You really found him? Then what should we do next?"

Jing Jiu thought about the shot in the square, the assassination in front of the sacrificial hall, and said without hesitation, "Kill him."

Zhong Lizi thought of the conversation nine days ago, and almost spit the foam out of his mouth again.

Jing Jiu said in time, "No."

Zhong Lizi quickly shut up, swallowing the foam into his stomach.

...

...

The museums and art galleries in Shouer City were suddenly temporarily closed today, and all the visiting people were invited out politely but without rejection.

It is said that a certain department of the administration is going to conduct a fire drill, so there is no advance notice.

Looking at the lifeless bubbles in the square, the people who were kicked out shook their heads one after another, full of resentment, thinking that some important person must have come.

Some people listened to the complaints around them and said, "We can use fire drills as a cover to show that they know something is wrong, so why should we be dissatisfied?"

Yes, not to mention the visitors who wasted half a day, even the directors and all the staff of the museums and art galleries were kicked out, and they dare not have any dissatisfaction. Because they knew that it was the priestess who came to visit today.

The museums and art galleries in Shou Er City have a very important position in the Galaxy Human Alliance, not even under the main star.

Because the star gate priestess is responsible for inheriting art.

These two pavilions are still owned by the priestly public consortium to this day.

"The counterpart of power is duty, as many sages have said."

The priestess stood beside Jing Jiu and said softly, "Sometimes I also wonder why the priestesses can't pass on all the knowledge of ancient civilizations they remember. Is this a kind of irresponsibility to human beings? After all, in some people's eyes, this behavior of the priestess is more like a threat to maintain their own status."

The topic is not deep, but it is deep. Many scholars in human society have discussed and argued for countless years. The lineage of priestesses is under great moral pressure, but they have never given an explanation. It now appears that not even the priestess herself knows where this rule came from.

She longed to be taught by the gods.

Jing Jiu had no such interest, so he turned his eyes away from the oil painting of sunflowers and said, "The real one is on the main star?"

"Yes." The priestess consciously didn't ask again, and said, "It should be somewhere in the ruins of an ancient civilization, only that one knows."

Regardless of whether it is the priestess of the star gate or the priestess of any other planet, when referring to the priestess of the main star, he will use the name "that one", which sounds a little strange.

Jing Jiu turned around and walked towards the museum.

...

...

The museum is more secluded than the art gallery, probably because it is already deep behind the thick walls of the warehouse at this time.

Looking at the ancient mecha that was housed in a huge glass box and buried half of its body in the mud, the priestess looked very calm.

Of course she knew the most important collection of this museum, and she was not surprised that Jing Jiu could find it. She introduced softly: "Every priest lineage has the most important ancient relic, and this mech belongs to the Stargate Priest Sequence."

Jing Jiu quietly looked at the mecha for a long time.

He felt that this mecha was like a flower, as long as it was kept in the soil, it would bloom again one day with some water.

On the contrary, the sunflower in the art gallery is more like a mech, with some indifferent vigor.

"The ruins of the ancient civilization of this mecha were found in the Sanling Star Field. According to the age, it is at least 230,000 years old. The surface of the mecha is severely damaged, and the paint leather is gone. Before there is no suitable preservation method, it has to be shielded together with the surrounding environment. This is the glass box you see now."

The priestess continued speaking softly.

Jing Jiu asked, "Just found a mecha?"

"The ancient civilization is too far away from us now, and it is difficult to preserve the corrosion-resistant alloy to the present."

The priestess looked at the sleeping mecha in the huge glass box, with sympathy in her eyes.

Jing Jiu was a little puzzled. This mech is indeed seriously damaged, but the shape can be seen, and the components inside are still intact. If it is really a product from 230,000 years ago, why can it last until now? You must know that after a long time, even the bones of the big monster at the bottom of the Soul Gathering Valley can be easily turned into powder.

The priestess said: "The ruins of the ancient civilization that found this mech is a bit special. It is guessed that it should be an emperor's tomb. It is extremely grand and deep in the ground, and it is very well isolated from the outside world."

Jing Jiu looked at the mecha in the glass box and was even more puzzled.

The ancient civilization has a much higher level of technology than the current Galaxy Alliance, but this mecha is very backward, using a turbulent multi-engine design.

You must know that even the Galaxy Alliance completely abandoned this backward design two thousand years ago.

Why did the emperor of ancient civilization let this backward mech be buried with him?

And why is this mecha kept by the lineage of the star gate priestess who inherited the art?

"When I was on the main star, that person explained it to me, she said..."

The priestess saw his confusion, thinking about the past thirty years ago, and said softly: "This mech itself is art."
