The end of the world begins with failing an exam

Chapter 41 Baiaji Sleeping in the Pleiades

The god horse who sleeps on the Pleiades star sea worships Aji?
When Chen Jing told the old man the origin of the relic against the light curtain, he couldn't help but feel puzzled.

God horse?

Bai Aji?
"Could it be that blowing this whistle...can summon a horse?" Chen Jing pondered in his heart, feeling a little confused.

in his understanding.

Shenjun is usually an adjective or synonym for a good horse in ancient times.

But sleeping on the Pleiades sea...

"Pleiades?" Chen Bofu muttered to himself, his eyes full of confusion, "I seem to have heard this name somewhere..."

"It should be a star, right? Isn't there a sea of ​​stars behind it?" Chen Jing reminded calmly, but he didn't dare to say too clearly, because his understanding of this world is still very limited.

At least in those musty-smelling books, Chen Jing had never seen any records about astronomy in the inner world.

What's more, since Chen Jing traveled to the inner world, he has never seen other stars in the night sky of Yongye Market.

At a glance.

All alone in the sky was the moon named Ghello.

"I remembered! It's one of the 28 mansions!" Chen Bofu said suddenly, with excited expressions in his cloudy old eyes, "Pleiades was one of the 28 mansions in the old days! After this record..."

"..."

Chen Jing looked at the old man with some puzzlement. He never expected that the inner world and the outer world would have so many similarities, even astronomy is so similar, but after thinking about it... he suddenly became enlightened.

The inner world and the outer world depend on each other.

Maybe the connection among them was deeper than he could have imagined.

It's no surprise that astronomy is similar.

"In the old days, in the sky of Yongye Market...no, it should be in the sky of the whole world, there were other celestial bodies!"

As if he had solved some problem, Chen Bofu excitedly took out the cigarette case from his pocket, first glanced at his good grandson to make sure he didn't respond, and then lit a cigarette slowly.

"The Pleiades is one of the 28 constellations in the old days. It is composed of seven stars that are extremely far away from us. It is also called the Pleiades star cluster or the open star cluster. I have also seen the name Baiaji in the book... "

"Have you seen the record of worshiping Aji?" Chen Jing was startled.

"I've seen it, but there are not many records about it. I only remember a rough idea, it seems to be..."

Chen Bofu's eyes showed memories, and he slowly exhaled a mouthful of thick smoke, so Chen Jing couldn't help but give him a blank look.

"Ahem, I won't smoke anymore..." The old man snuffed out the cigarette butt, threw it on the ground and stomped it hard, "Bai Aji is an ancient creature that serves an old god. It was born in the Pleiades. On one of the planets..."

Speaking of it.

Chen Bofu also seemed a little unwilling to believe the records in the ancient books, and he spoke in an uncertain tone.

"It is said that there is a lake on that planet, and Baiaji was born from the lake water. It can pass through the Pleiades star sea to deliver messages to the gods, and the speed of galloping between the stars is better than the light..."

"Is it so exaggerated?" Chen Jing heard the old man's narration, but he couldn't believe it.

Shuttle in the universe?

This powerful creature... can I really summon it?
And take a step back.

If this whistle can really summon the legendary Baiaji, then why is it only an ancient relic?

Shouldn't it be considered a rarer and stronger old relic?

"It's all legends, who knows if it's true or not, and there are records about the old days, most of which have exaggerated descriptions..."

Chen Bofu was also looking at the whistle in Chen Jing's hand at the moment, with an unconcealable curiosity in his eyes.

"The records say that Baiaji is the most beautiful creature in the Pleiades, a steed that even the gods admire...I think it should be a horse?"

When Chen Bofu said this, he raised his hand and made a gesture.

"It should be the kind that has wings and can fly. Anyway, there is a picture in an ancient book that draws it like this..."

Hearing this, Chen Jing couldn't help imagining the scene of "Bai Aji" galloping among the stars in his mind.

"How about..." Chen Jing held the whistle tightly, and blinked at the old man, "Let's try to summon it once? Anyway, there is no need to pay the price..."

"Okay!" Chen Bofu dragged Chen Jing and walked back, his pace quickly seemed a little impatient, "Let's go to the rooftop! That place is spacious!"

"Why don't you go to the square..." Chen Jing said in a low voice, "There is a big crow raised by Yanque on the roof, it is very annoying to chatter, and maybe Yanque is there too..."

"You know how to avoid people now?" Chen Bofu glared at him angrily, "I said at the beginning that you shouldn't meddle in so much business, but you meddle with her and annoy me. The crow I kept was roasted and eaten!"

"..."

"But having said that, you helped grandpa a lot today."

"Huh?" Chen Jing asked puzzled, "Can I help you?"

"Yes, it's too much..." Chen Bofu said with a smile, pointing to the shelves behind him without looking back, "Don't look at how many 'relics' Grandpa has collected, at least [-]% of them I touch. I don't know their origins, and I don't even know their functions..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jing was stunned for a while, and then suddenly understood why the old man said that his understanding of the relics came from "divine enlightenment"...

"For the old descendants, the 'relics' are both opportunities and traps. Their abilities need to be explored by the old descendants themselves. The origin is even more vague and difficult to study. The most important thing is the price..."

Chen Bofu let out a long sigh with a helpless expression on his face.

"Before groping for a way to use the 'relic', no one knows what the ability of the 'relic' is, and it is even more impossible to know what price the 'relic' wants."

Chen Jing listened silently, only feeling as if he had gained another extraordinary ability.

"So in many cases, when the old descendants figure out the cost of using it, it is often too late... But then again, you were not the old descendants when you used the Holy Grail, right?"

"I was indeed not an old descendant at the time..." Chen Jing tried his best to explain, holding back his guilt, "but I saw a thorn standing on the holy grail... I wanted to stick it in and try... I didn't expect to be fooled... "

Chen Bofu didn't show anything when he heard this, and Chen Jing couldn't tell whether he believed it or not.

It wasn't until they walked out of the scarlet door and the two returned to the familiar bedroom that the old man opened his mouth and gave him a kind smile.

"My dear grandson, you have to be good."

"Huh?" Chen Jing felt that something was wrong with the old man, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Without waiting for Chen Jing to ask more questions, Chen Bofu opened the window with a smile, dragged Chen Jing and jumped directly from the upstairs.

"Let's go, let's go to the square..."

"Go and summon your Baiaji."
