Chapter 388 Doubts

To be honest, Hao Ren felt that it was quite unreliable to let the four masters continue to challenge man and nature outside. The gap between the lifestyle of ascetics and ordinary people was really huge. If you were in the Dream Plane, you could still explain it with piety. , but what would you say if you leave it in your hometown? It is estimated that it is difficult for contemporary urbanites to understand why a group of people have to dig holes in the wilderness to live in the wilderness even though they have houses to live in. It is even less understandable that they chant sutras for two hours and dig holes in people's backyards in the northwest wind that is more than ten degrees below zero. The lifestyle of making bonfires and catching wild rabbits in the mountains and fields next to the city...

But after such a long period of experience, Hao Ren has weathered all the ups and downs. When it comes to many strange people and things, he is no longer as rigid and rigid as when he was a small citizen. He is very tolerant. : Anyway, the southern suburbs are sparsely populated, and the few masters just live a strange lifestyle and are not afraid of causing trouble. If they like it, then let them do whatever they want. And having said that, there are not many people doing performance art these days... What those artists do is much more ruthless than man and nature.

So the four new tenants stayed in the house temporarily in such a wonderful way: they came back to sleep every night, and at dawn during the day, they ran to the wilderness behind the house to think about life. The basic necessities of life were a few steamed buns a day and an appropriate amount of tap water. ——To be honest, if it weren't for the lack of underground water here, Big Beard would have decided to dig an earthen well behind Hao Ren's house with the help of four people. The daily life of the four ascetics is very regular and simple. In addition to meditation and prayer, they just walk around in the wilderness. When eating, they will hunt rabbits or take out some bird eggs (I don’t know where they found them). , other than that, don’t care about anything, life is full of natural and interesting things. Probably they think this way of life is the best expression of respecting nature. Hao Ren has been hesitating for the past two days whether he should tell the masters about the dwindling number of wild animals on the earth - after all, this is still on the edge of the city, not like a mountainous area. It's still winter, and the animals in the wild may not be enough for them to bring disaster to next spring...

Putting aside the Four Diamonds, Hao Ren has been compiling reports for the past two days. Because too many things happened in the dream plane, and the truth he revealed in just a few days has exceeded the results of the past few months' work, so he needs to think carefully about how to explain these things clearly. And because he left the dream plane in a hurry, some things had not been investigated in time. He also needed to discuss and reason with others before he knew how to report to Raven 12345.

Now that these reports were finally sorted out, Hao Ren sent the documents through the data terminal and prepared to go to Raven 12345 in person at noon. As soon as he sent out the report, he caught up with Nangong Wuyue and came back from shopping. Something suddenly occurred to his mind and he called out to the siren girl.

"By the way, you haven't gone out to sing in a while?" Hao Ren first casually mentioned Nangong Wuyue's old business, and the latter immediately shrank his neck: "Isn't this nonsense? Who goes out to sing in the winter... with several temperatures below zero? The northwest wind is blowing hard, I am willing to sing but someone dares to risk their lives and stand at the intersection to listen."

Hao Ren smiled awkwardly and then got down to business: "Actually, there is something I want to discuss with you..."

"What?" Nangong Wuyue saw the serious expression on Hao Ren's face and unconsciously sat on the sofa and became serious too.

"Do you have a way to find other Kraken on the earth? Or find the remains left by the Kraken on the ground, or anything else...Anyway, something related to your race, which can explain your cultural traditions and origins."

Nangong Wuyue looked at Hao Ren inexplicably: "Why are you suddenly interested in this? Have you really started studying archeology?"

"Actually, I suddenly want to understand something." Hao Ren's eyes suddenly looked very far away, as if he saw the amazing stars in the sky when he looked up in the space of the Dream Plane that day, "Do you still remember When we mentioned the Kraken to people in the Dream Plane, we found out that there was no such thing as a Kraken in that 'world', right?"

Nangong Wuyue nodded: "Oh, yes, what did you think of?"

"After that, Raven 12345 reminded me to look up at the sky," Hao Ren said with a bit of embarrassment on his face, "I always thought that my horizons had broadened after going through a lot of things, but it wasn't until I fought with the 'eldest son' this time. After a fight, I realized that I still couldn't get rid of my fixed mindset - we have always only focused on one planet in the dream plane, and we almost forgot that there is an entire universe above our heads!"

When it comes to the stars and the sea, Nangong Wuyue's knowledge is narrower than Hao Ren's, so it suddenly dawned on her: "You mean... the sea monster comes from other planets in the dream plane?!"

"Isn't it obvious?" Hao Ren spread his hands, "The goddess they call Big Beard is a space creature. All species on that planet were sown in space. The ancient magical civilization of the Dream Plane has even been Colonized the moon. And the founder of the Radiant Sect also mentioned that there will be a group of aliens to help eliminate the eldest son... We have always considered things too narrowly. When I first arrived in the dream plane, I should have When I realized...when I looked up, the sky was filled with stars!"

In fact, this cannot be entirely blamed on Hao Ren's narrow vision. Under normal circumstances, a person comes to a standard magical world, surrounded by a medieval social environment. People study gods and gods. There is no budding science and no industrial revolution. In this environment, you will Unconsciously being assimilated by this atmosphere, I couldn't help but limit my thoughts to a standard "Medieval Magic Kingdom" script. Anyone who has read a few fantasy novels can think of aliens at this time?

The key is that the Dream Plane doesn't play according to common sense! In the middle of this fantasy world, the medieval Vatican's drama, who knew aliens would suddenly pop up?

"Aliens all come from the Dream Plane. I have always believed this," Hao Ren said with a serious expression. "I swear on Darwin that it is impossible for a group of supernatural creatures that can move mountains and reclaim seas to evolve in such a precarious environment on Earth. The Kraken is by no means original to the Earth. So now I think the Kraken should come from other planets in the Dream Plane..."

"Are you planning to find the origin of the Kraken?" Nangong Wuyue looked at Hao Ren with interest, "This sounds interesting, but does it mean anything?"

Hao Ren looked into Nangong Wuyue's eyes: "Think about it, now we have finally realized one thing: the 'whole world' in the Dream Plane that we have always thought of is actually just an ordinary planet in the universe, and the Huiyao Sect has The goddess' annihilation event was actually an ecological disaster that occurred on this planet - although it almost destroyed the entire ecosystem, it was only an insignificant regional event for the entire universe."

"So..." Nangong Wuyue vaguely understood, "The Siren has never experienced the 'Goddess of Destruction'."

"According to the chronological calculation, the werewolves and vampires on the earth came over after the goddess's annihilation incident," Hao Ren said his speculation, "Let's not care about how they came over, just when they jumped over the wall, they suddenly understood Cross-world travel technology - in short, according to the chronology and various historical records, the origin of the aliens on the earth is obviously related to the goddess's destruction of the world. They may be fleeing, or they may be using some kind of super phenomenon caused by the 'eldest son' Tearing through the wall of reality and coming to Earth. Now there is something unclear: How did the Kraken come? They have never experienced 'annihilation', so why did they travel to Earth at the same time?"

Nangong Wuyue frowned and slowly followed Hao Ren's thoughts.

Hao Ren paused and continued: "There are only two possibilities, either the goddess's destruction has nothing to do with alien time travel, or... a similar thing happened in the Kraken's hometown back then, causing them to have to escape like werewolves and vampires. Dream plane.”

Nangong Wuyue couldn't believe it: "Is the second possibility reliable? The ancient magic empire was destroyed because the research on the original seed caused the eldest son to go berserk, but the hometown of Siren... No matter which planet it is on, it is different from the ancient magic empire. Are they related? Will something happen at the same time?"

This is something Hao Ren hasn't figured out yet. He previously believed that all the aliens on the earth came from the Dream Plane, and the common reason for these aliens crossing over was the Goddess's Annihilation. But now he knows that the Goddess's Annihilation in the Dream Plane is actually just a planet-level "regional event". In this way It seems difficult to explain the Kraken who came from an alien planet. In the final analysis, the goddess destroyed the world just because the people on one planet wanted to die. It is not universal and inevitable. Theoretically, the same thing cannot happen on other planets at the same time... So what is the reason for the Kraken to travel across the world? ? Does it really have nothing to do with the "goddess", but another disaster that affects the entire universe in the dream plane? "Goddess of Destruction" just happened to happen at the same time as this disaster? How many other alien races are there on earth that are similar to the Kraken? Are the aliens that Vivian knows about all those who traveled through time?

Nangong Wuyue looked at Hao Ren's face. She knew that although the man in front of her was usually careless, when he talked about something seriously, he must have a basis for it. He was occasionally serious, but as long as he was serious, he would never be stupid, so she I asked further: "From your tone, you seem to be sure that the Kraken has also encountered a similar 'world-destroying' accident? Do you have any clues?"

Hao Ren nodded slowly: "The first pope of Huiyao Sect mentioned in his message that before the first 'eldest son' wakes up, there will be allies from the stars - I am definitely not the allies he said, because three thousand years ago My ancestors haven't been born yet, so the question is: Why didn't those 'real' aliens show up? Did something happen to them too?"
