Chapter 27 About Aliens
It's unclear whether Vivian's magic weapon will work or not. Anyway, Hao Ren didn't have nightmares for the next three nights - but he didn't think it had anything to do with the Bagua disk.
One of the reasons is that he knows that the Bagua Pan is not originally used to ward off evil spirits. It is suitable for looking at Feng Shui to measure the direction and find spiritual treasures. It is used to calm spirits and ward off evil spirits, which is a cross-professional. The second reason is He found a line of small characters in the corner of the Bagua plate, which said the name of a wood craft factory in Sichuan... This was completely impossible to explain.
He decided not to tell Vivian the truth.
In any case, it was a good sign that he no longer had nightmares. Although the handful of wolf hair brought from the dream to the real world still made people feel uneasy, and Hao Ren was almost certain that he was being targeted by something terrible again, but he He is a guy who can enlighten himself. Even if the sky falls, as long as Yao Ming is not dead, he will be able to live happily - let's wait until we see Raven 12345 to ask about nightmares or whatever.
Speaking of Raven 12345, Hao Ren went to see her once two days ago. After all, there were a lot of things that were left unexplained in the last rush. Hao Ren also had a lot of questions at home, but the last time he went there, he didn't know. I didn’t see that weird “goddess”.
Hao Ren still used the same method as last time, taking a car to the "bastard" that made people complain so much, and then found a street lamp pole with an advertisement for an old Chinese medicine doctor, and successfully teleported to the upside-down bungalow that might be located in a different space, and passed by This proved that my previous experience was not a dream, but there was no sign of Raven 12345 in the bungalow. Hao Ren only saw a few blue fog men wandering around the garden and the big house - they should be the servants of Raven 12345. They seemed to have high intelligence, but they didn't seem to be able to speak human language. Hao Ren felt completely connected with them. Can not communicate.
A blue mist man handed Hao Ren a note. Raven 12345 wrote on the note that she had important business to go to Centauri and would be back in about three to five days. If she went crazy, she might come back in three to five years.
Then Hao Ren was driven out by the blue servant holding this unreliable message paper.
"This is really unreliable..." Hao Ren was reading a magazine in the living room with the air conditioner blowing on. He felt a little eggy when he thought of his experience of going to the "Time and Space Administration Office in Wang Batuozi" (the full name is very important!) two days ago. It hurts, and I don’t know when Raven 12345 will come back to answer his questions. Now Hao Ren felt like he was shrouded in a fog. There were things he couldn't figure out everywhere. He didn't even know where to start when asking. The only person who could possibly tell him everything was a psychopath. A reliable "goddess".
If it weren't for his kindness, he felt that obsessive-compulsive disorder alone would be enough to drive someone to death.
Of course, in the past two days, he also tried to find out about "alien" things from Vivian and Lily. How should I put it... It was somewhat rewarding. At least he had some understanding of the two alien species, werewolves and vampires. Understand, and have a vague impression of the "world" that is outside of human society.
Aliens - this is what Hao Ren subconsciously calls Lily and Vivian. In fact, it is also what many humans call them when they face those inhuman things. Even Lily and Vivian themselves call themselves this, but I don't see them saying anything about it. What's the point of dissatisfaction?
It is unknown when the aliens originated. It seems that they have been present since human beings recorded history, from the bizarre mythical ghosts in ancient times, to the vigorous church eradication of monsters in the Middle Ages, and the Chinese subjugation of demons, to the occasional ghosts in modern times. Horrifying stories are circulated, and strange legends that are half true and half false can be found everywhere. Aliens such as vampires, werewolves, monsters, and undead are no longer just stories to scare people in the eyes of many people today, but in the era when these ancient stories were just taking shape, they were real "eyewitness records."
The vast majority of aliens are threats to human beings. The original conflict situation cannot be verified now, but what is certain is that aliens and humans have been in constant friction before there are historical records. However, while at the same time of friction, there are also many aliens who have conflicts with humans. live in close contact or even live together. In the age of humans living in caves, aliens were the most primitive gods or ferocious beasts in ancient stories. Many ancient books handed down to this day mention "gods" and "wonders" with animal characteristics or three heads and six arms, or they have weird appearances. No matter how you look at it, mutated monsters do not conform to the theory of evolution. Some of these records are the imagination and exaggeration of the ancients, some are deformed children that actually existed and were born due to inbreeding and disease in ancient times, and the rest are basically They are the aliens that really existed.
Together with the humans at that time, they weaved the early volumes of earth's civilization, and played the role of "gods and monsters" in the records of civilization.
Vivian has experienced that era - although her memory is a bit confusing for some reason (maybe she has lived too long?), she can still introduce some basic information. This is the most shocking piece of information Hao Ren heard from her. That's it...Zeus is actually a real person, a thunder giant, and he has a trick on his mind...
It is obvious that in the early stages of contact between aliens and humans, the former had an overwhelming advantage: aliens usually had special abilities that far exceeded human understanding, had long lifespans, tenacious vitality, and were more than a little bit smarter than early humans. Aliens were inseparable to humans. This absolute dominant position, they can toss it whenever they feel like it, and become a ferocious beast that harms the common people or a primitive god who protects one party. To put it bluntly, it is the result of their whim, but as time goes by, this situation has changed. Vivian's memory is not very reliable, so she is not sure how the aliens suddenly declined. In short, she is certain that there are three main reasons: First, human beings gradually become civilized, and when the aliens relax, humans gradually learn to unite. They rose up and made more sophisticated tools to fight against the tyrannical gods and monsters, but the latter always maintained a relatively loose and independent small group, and the lone ones were easily defeated by each one; secondly, the heterogeneous group declined inexplicably (the reason is unknown); Third, the witcher appears.
The third and most important point is.
Demon hunters are strange guys with half-human blood. No one can explain how they appeared. It's like they came out of thin air. As soon as they appeared, they began to hunt "others" all over the world. The name of the witchers was not like this at the beginning. They had no fixed title at the beginning and could be called whatever they wanted. It was not until the European Vatican popularized the name "witchers" during the Middle Ages that this title gained widespread popularity. recognized. At that time, Europe was the last place where aliens were rampant (the aliens in other areas were basically wiped out by locals united with demon hunters), so the European Holy See classified, titled, and defined all kinds of aliens and demon hunters. It became the "final version" and continues to this day.
I don’t know if this is luck or misfortune for Europe...
In short, the activity of the demon hunters has caused the "alien" to gradually withdraw from the stage of earth's civilization, turning from the rulers at the beginning into the marginalized. Although the aliens still have great power (compared to ordinary people), they basically can no longer make much waves.
This is what Hao Ren heard from Vivian. It is the unbelievable other side hidden behind the calm real world that he has thought for more than 20 years... But anyway, the three views have been rebuilt after the disaster, so let it collapse. .
As for the two superwomen in the family, Hao Ren also carefully learned about them.
Lily is a "young werewolf" with only a few decades of life experience, and is a veteran, so she can provide little information, but Vivian is a high-level vampire who is said to have lived for many years. Hao Ren heard this for the first time. As I talked about it, I was shocked by the qualifications of the girl: she has been active in this world since before humans invented money. It can be said that it is older than the history of human civilization in many areas! But the strange thing is that the things Vivian knows are very limited. Her memories of thousands of years are a bit hazy. It is said that the most common thing is to sleep in various places. Until modern times, human society was quite dull and boring to Vivian. This eccentric senior vampire was not as keen on tormenting humans or "improving taste" as her compatriots. She spent most of her time focusing on dealing with Her own bad luck... After living in such a muddle for so many years, Hao Ren felt that she was definitely worthy of being a vampire.
But she is a good girl to humans.
I don’t know how her world view came to be.
(I encountered a special situation at noon... I couldn’t access the web page, so I’m just trying to figure it out now.)
