Who Isn’t A Cultivator?

Chapter 10 Why should we cut candles in the west window together

The ninth day, morning.

A rudimentary platform has been built in front of the cube west gate embedded in the upper half of Beauty Hill, and a shallow red barrier covers the arch.

A young man in uniform said to Professor Chen and Chen Shu, mainly to Chen Shu: “Professor Chen, little Teacher Chen, when you go in next, there will be instruments for testing, you can’t bring the equipment with you. If there are items of space storage nature, you can now hand them over to me for temporary storage for you.”

“No.” Professor Chen can’t afford it.

“Are these ok for cell phone watch necklaces?” Chen Shu asked.

“Yes, but you can also hand over your phone to me to keep it for you temporarily. It’s basically useless inside. Just wear a watch to check the time.”

“Okay. Yes.”

So Chen Shu turned off the phone and handed it to him.

“I’ll give it back to you when you come out.” The young man immediately took out two metal masks with a sci-fi appearance, “At the same time, when you go in, you need two teachers to wear the masks. The mask is valid for a single time. More than 12 hours, if the teacher has not come out by the time, we will come in to remind you.”

“The title of teacher is not worth it.”

“I will replace it. You wear it.”

“Thank you.”

The mask is almost completely buckled on the face, and the eyes are shimmering, like the mask of Iron Man, which has a sci-fi feel. It can provide people with both breathing and night vision capabilities.

Through the shallow red barrier, Chen Shu saw that the west door of the cube had been opened, but because of the isolation of the barrier, there was no sound coming out.

Pass through the detection gate in turn, check the space item, and the crystal is immune to it.

Enter the cube.

The skin is cold as it passes through the barrier.

The interior of the cube is dimly lit. There is a passage several meters long after entering the door. The further you go inside, the darker the light.

Chen Shu adjusted a little and glanced around.

It is different from the outside of the cube. The curve inside the cube should be smoother. It is no longer a cube. The inner wall is full of densely packed runes, all of which are Level 2 runes.

There is a rectangular stone platform in the center of the ground. It is flat, and there is an irregular black stone floating on it, which is about the size of a palm.

Behind the stone platform there is a stone tablet with a white shimmer, facing the east gate.

At the same time, there are many boxes scattered on the ground. The boxes are like new, and they don’t look like they have been placed for five thousand years.

In fact, even if you don’t take safety measures and let the outside air pour in, the things inside will not be damaged quickly.

“It’s the same as other cubes.”

Chen Shu whispered and continued to look around.

If nothing else, these boxes are filled with handicrafts at that time, precious materials needed by cultivators, and special books of different types. Some were precious at the time, but are now worthless, and some that were mediocre at the time are now invaluable, and history has given them meaning again.

But something more valuable is on that central stone platform.

That rock.

This stone was called mustard stone in ancient times, also called storage stone, World Stone, etc., and it is called Space Stone in modern times.

It comes with a space in it for storage, and if the environment is stable, it can also install lifeform. If you smash it with great force, the space inside will be divided equally.

In the past, people thought that it might be the product of the fragmentation of other universes. Later, with the plane theory put forward by Old Mister, people speculated that it was the product of the fragmentation of other planes.

Some people process the finely divided Space Stone, set the switch mode and anti-theft prohibition, and it becomes a space item.

So space item has nothing to do with people’s attainments in space, it is a kind of ore, and this kind of ore is not self-generated by this planet, the cultivator of since ancient times has already used it bits and pieces, so that in this day and age, space items are much more expensive.

Some countries regulate it directly.

Like such a big Space Stone, it can also accommodate living things, and people often call it Secret Realm.

Strategic supplies.

Now a group of military and Taoist people are surrounding the Space Stone, wanting to take it down, then untie it, take out the contents, and put it where it should be placed. This Space Stone is To be delivered to the military as a strategic weapon for Yi Country.

At present, Chen Shu’s task is to clean up the items in these boxes on the ground, protect them, take them out after they are installed, and store them well.

Some books will be sorted out later.

Maybe in the future some things will appear in a museum, and some historical cognitions will be revised accordingly.

Chen Shu took a turn inside and saw that the front of the stone tablet was engraved with the six characters ‘Xizhou’ and ‘Yishen Pingcang’ in standard Song script, and the time was recorded below.

After more than 5,000 years, Chinese characters and people’s writing habits have been slightly deformed. Even accents have undergone subtle changes, and it is difficult to see Song Dynasty. When Chen Shu saw the handwriting, he felt very kind and moved.

But what caught his attention more was the content and the stone tablet itself.

Western State is Western State, and now it is also called Western State. Yi Country is located in Central Continent, but why write a Western Continent and Ye Shen to close a position here?

Take a guess—

Night is a person! He is speculating on futures!

Just kidding.

This stone tablet Chen Shu has never seen before.

Either the other cubes don’t have similar stone tablets, or they are officially hidden, and now that Chen Shu has come in in this way, it is naturally regarded as qualified to access this thing .

Looking at everyone’s reaction, most of them are the latter.

History should be objective and realistic.

Archaeologists cannot change history, and may not be able to create history, but they should not deceive history and leave history that is closer to reality to future generations.

But there are times when you really can’t publish anything you’ve dug out of the ground, because some things are too shocking, or contradicting themselves, or enough to overturn the history we know and our citations. Proud of the glory, the impact of our civilization. For example, we all regard a certain person as a great man and a common ancestor. We relish the legends he once left behind. We draw national pride from such ancestors, but one day something was unearthed that made his image Completely subverted, then such a thing may not be suitable for showing to the public.

For something like this, we still have to keep it, and we have to keep it, but not for everyone.

What could be the reason?

Go back and ask Professor Chen.

Chen Shu worked with Professor Chen.

In the evening.

A group of people came out of the cube, and tents have been set up outside. They will rest here tonight, wake up tomorrow morning and resume work.

After dinner, Chen Shu and Professor Chen shared a tent.

Professor Chen sat by the bed to soak his feet and turned his head to answer Chen Shu’s question: “Pingcang is the Spiritual God in the legend of ancient Xizhou, probably in the same period as Saint Ancestor, as for these stone tablets. We don’t know why the names of Spiritual Gods were engraved at that time.”

Professor Chen paused: “It’s a guess.”

Chen Shu heard it.

Each cube has a tablet, and each tablet bears the name of a different Spiritual God.

“What guess?”

“The cubes were built for these god spirit cultivators.”

“Is it possible that these cubes are called Saint Ancestor though Cube, but not built by Saint Ancestor? I always feel that the things in the box are a bit low-end.”

“Unknown, everything is possible.”

“The door is not Can anyone go back in history?”

“Can you go back to Saint Ancestor?”

“Oh…”

“Go to sleep, wake up early.”

Professor Chen went out to pour out the foot-washing water, wiped his feet and lay down on the bed to rest. He looked like an ordinary person.

Chen Shu also needs Cultivation and chat with Qingqing.

It was a busy and uneventful day.

Until he fell asleep-

Chen Shu seemed to be in a strange place.

The sky is like a semi-circular cyan cover, covering the ground tightly. The ground in the distance was blurred by dust and mist, and the outline of a city could be vaguely seen.

Behind the city is a stretch of towering Snow Mountain. The moon came out before it was dark, and the setting sun dyed the top of Snow Mountain red.

This picture made Chen Shu feel a little familiar, but he couldn’t remember anything.

Suddenly a voice came into my ears:

“Why should we cut the candles at the west window?”

Chen Shu was stunned after hearing this. He was stunned for a while, pursing his lips tightly without saying a word.

“Why should we cut the candles of the west window together?”

“…”

“Why should we cut the candles of the west window together?”

“…”

Chen Shu remained silent.

The sound has not appeared since then.

Time seems to be getting long.

 …

Chen Shu felt very strange when he woke up. He remembered a strange dream, but he couldn’t remember what he dreamed.

Turning his head and looking around, Professor Chen’s bed is empty.

Waking up, getting dressed, and walking outside, Chen Shu immediately learned that he was not alone in having this dream.

I saw Professor Shi and Professor Liu with solemn expressions, and Professor Shi said to Professor Liu: “I also seem to have a dream, but I can’t remember anything. In this situation, I discovered jade a few years ago. It doesn’t seem to have appeared in the Beijing cube, right?”

“Never.”

“Ask the three.”

“I I asked the three, and they did the same.” Professor Liu said, “They also attach great importance to it, and it is estimated that they will invite ninth rank experts and special research teams from Yujing.”

“Oh…hey Little Chen got up?”

Professor Shi was very enthusiastic about Chen Shu, because in the process of sorting out yesterday, although the detailed inventory has not been carried out, the professional knowledge that Chen Shu inadvertently revealed has made him He had a good impression of this young man, and hurriedly asked:

“Little Chen, did you have any dreams last night?”

“It seems that…it feels very strange. .” Chen Shu said honestly, “It’s that kind of feeling like I had a dream, but I don’t remember anything.”

“That’s it!”

“What’s the matter? ?”

“Everyone of us had a dream last night, and it was the same situation, which has never happened before.”

“Really? “

“It’s just weird!”

“So are we going in today?”

“I’m not afraid, but Little Chen, you should Two days off.”

“I’m not afraid either.”

“Well, better have another dream tonight to know what Saint Ancestor wants to convey to us.”

“You’re right.”

“Have you washed up? Let’s go to breakfast.”

“Not yet.”

Chen Shu picked up something to wash, and was full of doubts. The feeling of not forgetting, but not being able to remember, was very torturous.

Is it my fault?

Chen Shu touched the crystal that he made into a necklace.

At this time, Professor Chen came over with a bowl of tomato and egg noodles, and when he saw Chen Shu, he stopped: “You already know? Why don’t you go back to rest for two days and wait for Yujing Come back to find out what’s going on here, come back.”

“What era is it, you’re still afraid of this?”

“Well, let’s go face it.”
