Chapter 603 - Micro Adjustment (2/2)
As the white shadow man pulled out a small book from a pile of ancient books and pa.s.sed it to Chu Yunsheng and carried on,
“I’ve looked through all kinds of data all over the world, and I’m not the only one in history that has similar doubts, but without exception, all the people who had similar doubts all died very quickly after they started to question it! The reason why I collect their information, hide it in this book and give it to you, is not that I want you to verify them. It would only put you in danger like me and them.
This book not only records the situation of these people but it also contains the success of all doubters in the study of a strange type of text and map. This is the most important. This book was discovered by me by accident when I tried to decipher your ancestor’s book. Although the characters and text in this book are different from the symbols and characters in your ancestor’s book, their systems are strikingly similar. Therefore, I want you to help me to complete the derivation of these texts and map, and mark them on the broken scroll that I gave you that night. I will find the remaining scroll.”
Chu Yunsheng did not take over the book, he just asked, “why me? And what is that scroll exactly?”
At this time, noises that came from outside the library gradually became louder. At first, Chu Yunsheng thought that it was the people from the military, but it didn’t sound like it.
The white shadow clearly became very anxious, and he started to speed up, “I’m in danger and I can’t stay in one place too long. These deciphering tasks require a lot of manpower and material resources, it is not something that can be done by one person. In addition, I think you also need to fully decipher the characters in your ancestor’s book. Those two systems are very similar, so they can be mutually verified. I will help you with your plan in Shanghai from outside. And…”
The white shadow man paused for a second, then took out a cigarette-box-sized smooth object from his clothes. It was light gray and wrapped in a soft blue cloth. He put it on the smaller book and gave it to Chu Yunsheng again and said, “this is the rock that the United States’ unmanned explorer secretly brought back from Mars. It contains a lot of dark matter, which is impure Yuan Qi in our term. Those scientists in the United States can’t detect these. As long as you infuse your Yuan Qi into it, and according to the method I wrote in the small book, you can cause a chain reaction of several of the dark matter inside it. It will release a lot of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi. I think you need it at the moment!”
Chu Yunsheng looked at that martian rock in shock. The white shadow man was right, he indeed had the ability to kill him. There was no need for him to spend so much effort to fool him. But from this, Chu Yunsheng could also tell that his situation was definitely very bad right now.
So in the blink of an eye, Chu Yunsheng made up his mind, No matter what, he needed to give the white shadow man an answer first. In terms of what he needed to do in the future, he would make changes to his plan according to the circ.u.mstances.
The white shadow man’s plan of getting Liang Xicheng’s jade pendant could indeed help Chu Yunsheng to distract the military and other forces’ attention, but at the same time, it also contained a threat to Chu Yunsheng. Maybe it was really because his ancestor had helped this white shadow man before, but the hidden meaning of this plan was that if he did not help him, he would create trouble for him in the dark.
He now had two jade pendants, and he was not scared that the white shadow man would be able to cut off the connection between the jade pendants and the ancient book, because that mechanism was set up by the senior pract.i.tioner, but since the white shadow man wanted to use him to do something, he could also use this relations.h.i.+p to use the white shadow man to help him to do something. Everyone could use each other, so it was not a big deal.
Seeing Chu Yunsheng take over the rock and the smaller book, the white shadow man let out a sigh of relief and said, “in terms of that broken scroll, I still did not know what it was. I only know that It’s a key, probably a clue left by the first doubter a long, long time ago.”
Chu Yunsheng nodded indifferently. He didn’t care much about it. What he really cared about was what made the white shadow man question if this world was real or not. This was related to him, and very important to him. If it was really caused by his strangeness, then he must immediately consider the dangers of different “variables” in the Pseudo-Monolith, lest the world inside the Pseudo-Monolith would collapse before he found the fifth pendant. So he carried on, “since when did you start to have this doubt?”
Just as the white shadow man was about to speak, the fluorescent lamp overhead suddenly flashed several times as if it were about to go out at any moment. The voltage suddenly became extremely unstable strangely. Outside of the library, it was even noisier, with a few screams in between.
“I can’t tell you in detail, I need to prevent you from having similar doubts and falling into the similar danger.
Probably I’ve lived too long. After my life expectancy broke through the first limit, I had more time to observe and understand the world. But shockingly, I found that the world has made a very subtle micro adjustment. Although it was extremely small, Its essence was as incredible as the Cambrian explosion. I was horrified at the time and was almost scared into stopping the investigation. But in the end, I collected myself again and carried on with the investigation with fear. As the investigation progressed, I knew more and more things. Gradually, I realized that I was in danger, and there was a voice in my mind telling me that I should stop investigating it further, but I couldn’t control my curiosity at that time. I continued to investigate it until one day…”
The white shadow man looked at the flas.h.i.+ng fluorescent lamps and was about to speed up talking again, all of sudden, his face suddenly changed, “the sun must have disappeared again, only when the sun disappeared and when it was night time would they come out! I have stayed here for too long, they are here! You must remember that before you have the strength, do not try to verify what I said, otherwise, they will also target you. The reason why I am telling you those things is to remind you not to make the mistake I made back then. Although you cannot see them, once you see and know their existence, you will be dead! No living person can know their existence! Remember, don’t try it unless you have the strength! Also, the weapon I took from Dan Yang city is in a garage in the Liang family’s backyard. You need to leave now, I’m leaving as well!”
After speaking, the white shadow man opened the door of the library without any hesitation and rushed into the pa.s.sage outside the library like a gust of wind. He did not even have the courage to resist.
