casket of old days

Chapter 881 Future?

Chu Qiguang looked at the fat cat in front of him, seemed to be slightly taken aback, and then saw some familiar shadows from the cat's face.

Fat Cat sat up from the sofa. He seemed to want to try to stand up, but he gave up after trying. He kept lying down and said, "It's me, Chu Qiguang."

"I'm Qiao Zhi, don't you know me? Are you suffering from sequelae after sleeping too long?"

At the same time, in front of the sofa where Qiao Zhi was lying, something like news was playing on a screen, and the content immediately attracted Chu Qiguang's attention. .

"On the second and third day of February, a suspected monster appeared at the Siming Wharf. People who were in the wharf that day are asked to perform a magic dye test..."

"The total amount of qi and blood in the world increased by more than 12% that year. The Ministry of Household Affairs announced that all the anemic population will be lifted out of poverty this year. The coverage rate of martial arts in the world exceeds 88%..."

"Qingyang County will promote free demon ritual rituals for people aged 3-7. The local area has maintained a record of zero demon contamination for ten years..."

"The No. 12 Human-Beast Friendship Conference is being held in Yongzhou. Representatives from all 49 states of the world are holding a memorial ceremony in front of the Central Plains War Monument..."

Watching these news, Chu Qiguang's mind continued to be filled with waves.

He looked at Qiao Zhi who was on the side, and said lightly, "It seems that I have slept for a long time."

Although there were many doubts in his heart, Chu Qiguang still maintained his composure.

After all, he knew that it was useless to be anxious, the most important thing right now was to collect information.

Chu Qiguang walked to the blood pool on the side, trying to control the Qi and blood network with the method of blood sympathy.

At this moment, he found that although the upper layer of the Qi and Blood Network was densely packed... even he had some commands that he couldn't understand.

But the language of the lower level is still based on his blood sympathy method, so it is not a big problem for him to manipulate, and the priority is still at the highest position.

Qiao Zhi said with a strange face: "Didn't you set the hibernation yourself?"

"Furthermore, logically speaking, although you are hibernating, you will also passively receive the latest information from the blood pool. Once you find that the situation is out of control, you will be awakened..."

Chu Qiguang touched his chin and said doubtfully, "I don't remember these things."

Qiao Zhi laughed and said, "Since you don't even remember... then you are welcome to the future."

"You can never imagine how beautiful the world is now. We have succeeded, and the world today has been completely changed by us."

"Whether it's famine or natural disasters, even if it's demon stains, or the threat of outer gods, all follow your plan, no... it should be that you overfulfilled your plan, and all the seeds you planted at the beginning have all become The big tree in the sky."

"The two races of humans and monsters are now working hand in hand, martial arts and Taoism have also been developed for a long time, and the blood is continuously increasing. Now you are the person with the most blood in the world."

"The interest you earn every year just from your energy and blood is probably worth as much as you have practiced for decades..."

Hearing Qiao Zhi's words, Chu Qiguang felt a little puzzled, a little weird, but also a little expectant.

He has no memory of ever planning a long hibernation of his own.

In addition, Chu Qiguang felt that something happened before he went to bed that made him care.

But maybe because he hibernated for too long, he couldn't remember what it was.

And the news just now and the future that Qiao Zhi talked about... All of these seemed a bit dreamy and unreal in Chu Qiguang's eyes.

After all, for him, the world before hibernation was just an instant ago.

At this moment, Qiao Zhi went on to say: "It's not uncommon for amnesia accidents to occur during hibernation. You and Jiaojiao have prepared a record together, as long as you can restore your memory with you."

He just yelled: "Jin girl! Are you there?"

"I am here, sir."

Accompanied by Jin Nu's cold voice, streaks of flames emerged in the air, forming a faint phantom of Jin Nu.

Chu Qiguang, who watched this scene, was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Is this... the power of Buddha Fire?"

Qiao Zhi said from the side: "Well, after the reform of the Taoism related to the Buddha's fire, the Ember girls have upgraded themselves. At present, within the scope of the Buddhist world, they can directly project to every corner of the world along the Buddha's light. "

Chu Qiguang was slightly surprised: "Is the progress so great?"

Qiao Zhi said to Ember, "Call the record and start the memory recovery process."

Jin Nu looked at Chu Qiguang after hearing the words: "Long time no see, Mr. Chu, do you need me to help you recover your memory?"

Chu Qiguang asked: "How to help?"

Qiao Zhi on the side said: "The amnesia in hibernation is usually temporary. Let Jin Nu help you read the history of these years, which can stimulate you to restore your memory."

Chu Qiguang nodded: "Let's start." He just wanted to see what happened in these years.

Accompanied by Jinnv's questioning again, a voice of calling rose from Chu Qiguang's heart.

Qiao Zhi said from the side: "This is Monternet connecting you. As long as you answer the call, you can connect to Monternet and see what we can see now."

Chu Qiguang asked: "Is Mengwang Lin Lan's dream?"

Qiao Zhi said: "That's right, it's the fifth generation of Monternet. Whether it's human race or monster race, it will be attached with Taoism as soon as it is born, and it will be permanently connected to Dreamnet."

"This kind of Taoism directly eliminates all illiteracy in the world, and also makes most crimes nowhere to escape. It can also quickly conduct preliminary detection of magic contamination."

"After the fifth generation of Monternet started to be promoted, the number of criminals and demons all over the world dropped rapidly..."

Chu Qiguang tried to respond to Monternet's call, and the next moment he felt the brilliance in front of his eyes, and a large number of images and shadows flashed in front of him.

It feels like the physical world in front of you suddenly has many screens of different sizes.

Chu Qiguang instantly understood: "It seems that the current dream net uses the Taoist technique that combines dreams and reality, making people have a lucid dream?"Seeing a world where reality and dreams overlap... Has this kind of Taoism spread all over the world? '

At the same time, Chu Qiguang felt a change in the Qi and blood network on the side, which seemed to be related to Monternet.

"Qi-Blood Network, Monternet, and Ember Girl's Fire Network, have the three networks been able to mobilize each other? '

At the same time, the image projected from the dream changed for a while, and a large number of images that appeared to be historical data appeared.

There was even a portrait of him, which gave Chu Qiguang a weird feeling of being in a history class.

In the next few days, Chu Qiguang did not go out in a hurry, but stayed underground in the Sala Palace.

Through Qiao Zhi, Jen Nu and Monternet to collect information about history and the outside world, to understand what happened in the past and what the world is like now.

And what unfolded in front of him seemed to be an infinitely beautiful and bright future, just like what Qiao Zhi said... All problems were solved after the development of the whole society.

"Mr. Chu, ever since you defeated the foreign coalition forces and led the world to peace, the two races of humans and demons have joined hands, the food production has increased year by year, the total amount of blood has been rising, and the productivity brought by the blood machine has also increased..."

"Martial arts, Taoism and all kinds of knowledge have been released one after another. Under your encouragement, the whole world has entered a period of rapid development..."

"However, Mr. Chu, your self-discipline, diligence and hard work are far beyond the reach of ordinary people."

"Whether it is a human race or a monster race, it is difficult to follow in your hard-working footsteps."

"So in the few years after you hibernate, the mental pressure of the people has increased year by year, social conflicts have occurred frequently, and work efficiency has decreased..."

"Under the leadership of Mr. Jiao, monthly holidays have been quickly extended to all walks of life."

"From the very beginning of taking one day off every month, to two days, three days, four days..."

"The life happiness of the people has increased rapidly, and the practice of martial arts and Taoism has become more efficient, and the research and development of major projects has also been rapidly promoted."

"Up to now, the average monthly vacation per person in the world has reached 20 days, and everyone spends more time on music, painting, drama and other entertainment activities every month."

"Most of the heavy and repetitive labor is replaced by the blood machine, and the people of the whole society can focus on more creative work and get rich results."

When Chu Qiguang heard this, he was a little surprised and said, "20 days off every month?"

Qiao Zhi, who had been with him all the time, said, "Don't worry, now everyone doesn't have to work so long, but it makes the whole society progress faster."

With the beating of each picture, Jen Nu continued to introduce: "With this background, with the great development of Taoism and martial arts, first the famine was completely solved, and then the natural disasters in various places were cured, and the solar terms in all parts of the world are in a state of depression. Under the regulation of the imperial court."

"Miss Lin Lan and Li Yaofeng Xianren jointly developed the magic dye detection method based on Mengwang, which can prevent the outbreak of magic dye in advance, and then use the method of subduing magic taught by the celestial master to cooperate with the physical transformation of the blood pool and other methods Come to cure the magic dye."

"The popularization rate of the world is increasing year by year, and now it has reached more than 96%. After the qi and blood of all races in the world are integrated, they are redistributed reasonably to maintain the rapid growth every year..."

"Dongtian Paradise has spread to more than [-]% of the world's land, and now is the age when everyone can live in a house in the Paradise..."

During this period of time, Chu Qiguang also tried to sense the world he had released, only to feel that the power contained in it and the complexity of the expansion had reached an unbelievable level.

Before he fully understood the current situation, he did not easily mobilize the energy and blood in it.

"Dazhu and Datai have been merged into the territory of Dahan successively. With the investment in education for all, and the promotion of the evil god of the emperor, and the spread of the world, the people have gradually awakened..."

When Chu Qiguang heard this, he asked, "How are these sects doing now?"

Ember said: "All the classics of Wuwei Sect and Immortal Dao have been collected and banned."

"The last follower of Huang Tiandao was arrested 12 years ago and is now undergoing thought reform in prison."

Chu Qiguang was taken aback for a moment, and asked again: "Where is the Emperor Datai, and the golden body of Xuanxuzi? Did they do anything?"

Jinnu said: "25 years ago, during a rent dispute in Dongtian Paradise, Emperor Datai was exposed because he didn't have a Tianxiatong account and couldn't pay the rent."

"We then pursued him for three months and formally arrested him. He is currently in enforced hibernation."

"Xuan Xuzi's golden body assassinated Mr. Jiao five years ago, and was killed on the spot. The body is currently kept in the Qi and Blood Workshop, waiting for your decision on how to deal with it."

Chu Qiguang opened his mouth slightly, feeling as if he was dreaming: "Xuan Xuzi's golden body... has been defeated? Who defeated him? Li Yaofeng? Huang Daoxu? Or Yong'an? Which one of them broke through to the top?" Participated?"

Jinnu said: "No one has broken through to the Shenyou realm. Xuanxuzi's golden body was bombarded and killed on the spot after being besieged by 580 million Qi and blood fighters."

"Because of the destruction of Xuanxuzi's golden body and the spread of the battle, the casualties of the people at that time exceeded 20, and the loss of blood reached more than 100 million."

"The public has a great fear of super-strong individuals, and the accumulated contradictions between ordinary people and the strong have exploded."

"In order to limit the oppression brought about by strong individuals, the chamber of commerce and the imperial court jointly promulgated regulations restricting martial gods and immortals above the Dao realm..."

"Afterwards, the development of martial arts and Taoism has completely turned towards mass production and generalization, and the strong in the traditional era are almost vulnerable to large-scale blood weapons."

"Today, there are far fewer people in the world who enter the Tao and reach the holy realm than before you hibernate..."

"But the strength of the entire world has far surpassed that of the past. Even if the Emperor's World really descends, we are still strong enough to fight against it..."

Chu Qiguang sighed, all that Jinnu said still gave him an unbelievable sense of emptiness and strangeness.

He said in a somewhat complicated tone: "By the way, I forgot to ask you... How long have I been hibernating?"

"President Chu, from the 29th year of Yongan Yongan to the 43rd year of Xinhan, you have hibernated for a total of 52 years."

……

On the streets of Night City.

In Chu Qiguang's eyes, there are colorful lights everywhere, shining with colorful brilliance.

Under the projection of Monternet, various advertisements flickered on the wall, on the ground, on the car, and even some people's bodies from time to time.

Before his hibernation, Night City was still dominated by bungalows, but now all he could see were high-rise buildings with hundreds of floors.

There are both people and monsters on the street, and according to Chu Qiguang's observation, each of them is a warrior of the first realm.

He has been walking on the street for a long time, and he has never seen a person or monster who has no foundation in martial arts, but he has never seen a warrior who has surpassed the first level. This ratio makes Chu Qiguang feel a little strange.

In the past few days, Chu Qiguang began to leave the Sala Palace, walking around and observing in the city of night.

And everything is just like what Qiao Zhi and Jin Nu said, the people's life is rich, the average person is a martial artist, all physical labor is replaced by the blood machine, and the life of most people is different entertainment every day.

However, according to Chu Qiguang's observation, it seems that few people focus on practicing martial arts and Taoism.

In fact, today's Taoism and martial arts in the world have become scientific research. Most people only reach the first-level level in school, and basically they will not make any progress after graduation.

After all, things like fighting nowadays have been handed over to blood weapons by default in everyone's eyes.

Ordinary people, even if they want to gain some supernatural power, can directly rent the magic powers that are common in the world, or accept some physical transformation, use blood weapons and other means.

As for the situation in the ancient times where the whole society respected the strong and devoted themselves to cultivation and pursuit of realm, it is now regarded as feudal dross and involution caused by backward technology.

As a result, no one cares about Chu Qiguang's current realm and cultivation base. Compared with his realm, the management of the current chamber of commerce seems to be more worried about whether he will intervene in the daily operation and management of the chamber of commerce.

Beside Chu Qiguang was a girl with fox ears and a fox tail. The girl stared at Chu Qiguang non-stop and said, "Mr. Chu, I feel that you...are not very happy all the time? "

Chu Qiguang glanced at the other party. According to blood, this fox demon is a descendant of Thirteen Niang, and was sent by the chamber of commerce to help him adapt to modern life.

Hearing what the other party said, Chu Qiguang didn't speak.

The fox girl said: "Your current situation, many long-term hibernators have, it is a psychological problem caused by time and memory deviation."

"You have to learn to relax. Now it's not decades ago. The battle is over, and there is no need to practice martial arts."

"Just enjoy your old age with peace of mind."

"You are the richest man in the world."

Chu Qiguang glanced at the passers-by, and asked, "Is the battle not over yet? The imperial world may come at any time."

The fox girl said: "They don't dare to start a war with us when they come. If you don't believe me, you can read the analysis of other experts."

With the operation of Monternet, a video appeared directly in front of Chu Qiguang, which looked like some kind of network program.

One of them analyzed: "... next year our tenth Mountain of Controlling Demons will be officially in operation. This Mountain of Controlling Demons uses the latest Qi and blood technology, and it can reach thousands of miles away in one breath."

"After the emperor's world comes, it is estimated that most of them will be killed by the beyond visual range attack before they see us."

"The level of Taoism in the imperial world has fallen behind us."

"The Qi and Blood Workshop in Night City has already deciphered the composition of the Emperor's Son, and is able to cultivate the Emperor's Son by itself. They also extracted the memory of the Emperor's Son for analysis."

"The class in the world of Emperor Tian is severely solidified, the society is lifeless, and Taoism and martial arts have not developed for thousands of years."

"And our society respects the freedom and wisdom of every individual, and stimulates the potential of all citizens."

"Every step of social development will feed back to the citizens, so we will develop faster and faster, and finally leave the religious development model of the imperial world far behind."

Immediately afterwards, Fox Girl dug out another news video:
"We need to rebuild 20 Mountains of Controlling Demons! Li Yao Fengxianren: We should build more super weapons to deal with the threat of the emperor, and the whole society should increase investment in Taoism research... The stock price of Bad Kong Workshop rose by 5.8 that day %..."

He looked at the fox girl beside him and asked, "Where did the news you read come from? It seems a little different from what I've read these days."

The fox girl said: "Oh, that's what some folk media in Monternet summarized..."

Chu Qiguang: "Let's take a look again, those news seem quite interesting."

When the fox girl heard the words, she called out other news on the Internet.

"From now on in Xinshenjingcheng, the elementary and intermediate public martial arts schools in the whole prefecture will suspend after-school make-up classes. Any in-service teachers are prohibited from teaching martial arts above the second level, but private martial arts schools and off-campus training will not be affected by this. I recommend all apprentices to sign up for the Martial God Temple , with professional Wu Jinshi one-on-one guidance..."

"The anti-budo organization once again protested against the school's overburden, and accused the school of forcing students to practice for more than two hours a month in order to improve students' grades, which increased the risk of demon contamination..."

"The environmental protection organization 'Four Seasons' issued a proposal on the Internet, arguing that the global magic pollution is still on the rise. In order to reduce the magic pollution, the spread of martial arts and Taoism to ordinary people should be completely banned, and the side effects of knowledge must be guarded!"

"Qingyang Pharmaceutical announced its delisting. Since its listing, its market value has shrunk by 95%. The chairman has already hibernated. It seems that this liar has exhausted all his energy and blood..."

"The day before yesterday, a male delivery man of the Dragon nationality in Longdao used lethal martial arts to injure a number of human students in the submarine apartment. The suspect has been arrested."

"His followers on Montnets have exceeded 10. Some Dragon Rights organizations expressed concern and believed that he suffered unfair treatment during the interrogation. For his live trial, please focus on this station..."

At this moment, the fox girl seemed to be listening to something, then she closed the news page and said, "There's nothing to see in the future."

"Anyway, don't worry, the current qi and blood weapons are much more powerful than ancient ones, no matter how strong an individual is, it's useless."

"It will only become more and more difficult for those who follow the route of the individual strong like Huangtian World."

"And our society is the development of developing each individual's subjective initiative and gathering the wisdom of all people. Our development model is far beyond the feudal and superstitious model of the imperial world."

"Because our development will continue to feed back to everyone, and we will develop faster and faster..."

What the fox girl said is also the consensus of most of the people at present, that is, the current development model of Dahan is far superior to that of the emperor's world, and it is the most excellent social system from ancient times to the present.

Chu Qiguang said again: "Then what if you can't beat it?"

The fox girl said: "Then we can use the Buddha Realm to escape..."

It is said that under the research chaired by Jiaojiao, the Chamber of Commerce has found a way to control the Buddhist world. If it encounters a disadvantageous war, it can take all the people to escape from this world at any time.

Therefore, the development of the entire society is now concentrated in the Buddhist world, and the original material world has become a large area of ​​farmland and various natural environmental protection areas.

All of Chu Qiguang's past plans seemed to have come true, but there was always a feeling that something was wrong in his heart.

……

"Brother Dog, you finally woke up!"

Appearing in front of Chu Qiguang was a middle-aged man with slightly gray hair. He held Chu Qiguang's palm and said excitedly, "I'm Chen Gang, do you remember me?"

Chu Qiguang: "I'm just hibernating, and I'm not dementia. How can I not remember you?"

Chen Gang scratched his head in embarrassment: "I heard Master Qiao say that you lost your memory, so I thought you didn't remember me."

Chu Qiguang said: "How long have you been hibernating? When did you wake up?"

Chen Gang said: "I have always hibernated for a short period of time, and hibernated for a long time... I always feel that things are different, and I don't dare. Brother Gou, you are so courageous, you can sleep for decades."

Chu Qiguang asked inexplicably, "Really?"

Chen Gang said: "Yes, after a long period of hibernation, how many people have their sons become Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu become sons, and the relationship between relatives and friends is beyond words."

Chu Qiguang asked: "What do you think of the world now?"

Chen Gang said: "Of course it is good, as long as we eat and drink every day, we are much happier than we were at that time..."

At this moment, there was a noise coming from the front.

Chu Qiguang asked, "What happened?"

The fox girl on the side stretched out her hand, and a line of pictures and texts appeared in front of them.

"It seems that the racial equality organization 'Ring' protests the invisible discrimination of the East Sea Chamber of Commerce against non-human races, demanding a 12% increase in the wages of all non-human races..."

Chu Qiguang said: "Didn't it mean that the monsters join hands, and the conflict between humans and monsters is gone?"

Fox girl: "All races must pursue their own interests. Everyone can speak out freely and express their demands freely, without affecting the friendship between transvestites."

Then I saw all kinds of monsters rushing towards me like a tide.

Chu Qiguang took Chen Gang and the fox girl away, but he suddenly sensed someone breaking through the crowd and approaching him.

Immediately afterwards, a familiar voice sounded in his heart: "Chu Qiguang, it's me."

"Master Qiao? Aren't you in the Sala Palace?"

The other party said: "How could I be that kind of fat man, that's a fake."

"Chu Qiguang, this world is far from being as beautiful as it appears on the surface, but there are huge problems."

"You are the true owner of the Chamber of Commerce, and also the true owner of Blood Pond, Tianxia Tongxing, and Dongtian Paradise."

"It's only you now..."

The other party's voice disappeared instantly, as if it had been cut off by something.

Chu Qiguang frowned slightly, his eyes swept around, but he didn't feel anything unusual.
