Chapter 274 I Will Raise Your Wife and Children
Wang Qinian stood up with his eyes wide open.
"What? The key is not put back? This, this, this, isn't this a big deal? Then what should I do next?"
Fan Xian tilted his head and looked at him, feeling a little strange.
"This is my concern. Why are you so excited?"
Mei Cheng'an didn't figure it out either, and looked at Wang Qinian with the same curiosity.
"Yeah, why are you so excited? What does it have to do with you?"
Wang Qinian said anxiously.
"Of course it matters. If Master Fan gets caught when he goes back to put the key, I'll be dead too! No, Master Fan, why didn't you put the key there last night?"
Mei Cheng'an and Fan Xian looked at each other, both of them showing a look of realization.
So this is the logic, it makes sense.
"Forehead…"
In response to his question, Fan Xian touched his nose awkwardly.
"I went to Changxin Palace and was delayed because I lay down at the foot of the wall for a while."
"..."
Wang Qinian really wanted to curse, "Is there any business to do? Is lying on the wall more important than business?"
But now that things have come to this, there is no point in saying anything.
"So what are you going to do next?"
Fan Xian said.
"Didn't I just tell you? Put it back. The real purpose of our trip last night cannot be exposed."
Wang Qinian frowned.
"An assassin just entered the harem yesterday. It must be a sealed box now. How did you get in again?"
Speaking of this, Fan Xian smiled.
"Wouldn't it be better to find someone who can enter the palace at any time?"
"Can I enter the palace at any time?"
Wang Qinian thought about it, but found nothing.
"Where can you find such a person? Besides, even if there is such a person, why would he help you?"
Fan Xian smiled but said nothing.
Mei Cheng'an glanced at him and said to Wang Qinian.
"Okay, Lao Wang, calm down and sit down first. Can't you guess who he is by looking at his coquettish and slutty look? It's obvious that he's planning to be a gigolo."
"Soft rice..."
Wang Qinian was stunned when he heard this, then his eyes lit up.
He doesn't understand what it means to be a gigolo, but doesn't he understand what it means to be a flirt?
Princess Lin Wan'er, it's okay then.
Upon hearing this, Fan Xian's smile instantly disappeared and he raised his middle finger.
"You're the slut! You're the cheap one! You're the gigolo!"
Mei Chengan chuckled and crossed his wrists.
"Bounce!"
……
After being completely relieved, Wang Qinian quickly found an excuse to leave.
With his keen eyesight, he could tell at a glance that Fan Xian had some private matters to discuss with the young master, and that it was not convenient for him to listen to them, so he wisely took the initiative to say goodbye.
After watching Wang Qinian leave, Mei Cheng'an looked at Fan Xian.
"What's going on? You're so mysterious. Don't you trust Lao Wang?"
Fan Xian shook his head, took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to him.
"It's not that I can't trust him, but there are some things that are really inconvenient to tell him. The box has been opened. This is the letter my mother left for me. Take a look."
Mei Chengan took a look and didn't answer.
"I want to know what your mother's letter means to you. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
Fan Xian shook the envelope.
"The amount of information is quite overwhelming, and it almost shattered my worldview. I don't know what to say. You should just read it yourself, and you will understand after you finish reading it."
"Is this true? Is it really that exaggerated?"
As he spoke, Mei Cheng'an reached out to take the envelope, glanced at the words on the cover, raised his eyebrows, then opened the envelope, took out the letter, opened it and began to read.
Fan Xian did not disturb him. He stood up, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea. He also pulled the plates of snacks on the table towards him and ate the snacks and drank tea in silence.
Mei Cheng'an started to raise his eyebrows not long after reading it. He had almost forgotten the content of the letter in the play and only remembered the general idea. But when he took a sudden look at it, he was still shocked.
What shocked him was not the content, but the fact that Ye Qingmei went straight to the point in the letter she wrote to Fan Xian without even a few pleasantries, with a kind of fierceness that showed no regard for other people's lives.
"There is no time travel, no parallel world, this is still Earth, this is still our world."
Just this one sentence might have scared Fan Xian enough, but Mei Chengan remained calm after reading it, as it was the setting in the book.
'The Earth has existed for more than four billion years and has been rotating continuously. During this long period of time, there have been several special eras.'
'The world is cooling significantly, large ice sheets are forming in mid- and high-latitude areas, water is condensing into ice, and atmospheric circulation and ocean currents are changing accordingly'
'In such an era, white dominated everything. This is the so-called Great Ice Age.'
"Our era has ended. Fortunately, we have opened the forbidden door and hope to revive again in the new century."
"Have you ever seen a science fiction movie? It's like being frozen in an instrument. After many years, the instrument is opened and the sleeping person comes out."
"And I am a living example. When I woke up, the ice age had long passed, the old era was annihilated, and a new era came."
'The new human race has gone through the tribal period, the slave society, and now it is the feudal dynasty'
The first part was like reading a science fiction novel, and Mei Chengan read it with great interest, but the last sentence quickly brought him back to reality.
"Feudal dynasty, Qing Kingdom..."
Mei Chengan murmured in an inaudible voice and frowned.
He thought he could keep a relaxed attitude all the way through the film, but when he saw this, he suddenly had an inexplicable emotion. He didn't know how to describe it, it just felt weird.
Shaking his head to suppress the strange emotion, Mei Cheng'an continued to look down.
'Have you ever thought that this world still speaks Chinese and retains various customs from the previous era?'
"Because I'm not the only one who woke up from the ice."
"Many pioneers survived and spread civilization to the new humans. They can be regarded as seeds left over from the previous era." "Their legends are also the secrets of the temple."
This should be referring to the Heavenly Veined Ones. Mei Chengan thought of many things in his mind, including the murals in the Qing Temple, his own skills, and...
The temple sacrifice I have never seen before...
The temple hunters who are hunting Wuzhu...
Thinking of the pursuers, he thought of another interesting thing.
The Tianmai people themselves were sent by the temple to guide the progress of the world.
At the same time, they were hunting down Wu Zhu and Ye Qing Mei to prevent them from disrupting the proper course of this world.
This is very classic, a typical example of allowing officials to set fires while ordinary people are not allowed to light lamps. Doesn't this count as destroying the world's progress?
Some people may say that over-accelerating the world's progress can easily lead to the collapse of the world again, and that the temple did nothing wrong.
The question is, who will decide whether it is excessive acceleration? Or the temple? It is equivalent to being both a player and a referee. Is this reasonable?
The temple puts itself in the position of God, intending to dominate everything and make the world run exactly according to their wishes.
The question is, why? Does the world really need it?
Of course, Mei Cheng'an doesn't think that the temple is the villain. Perhaps from the perspective of protecting humanity, they are right.
But Mei Chengan couldn't help but complain about the fact that the temple itself intervened.
If you are a referee, then don't leave the court. If you leave the court, then don't be a referee anymore. This is fair and just.
This is going too far. It is not his place to judge right or wrong. He won't take sides until his own interests are involved!
Mei Cheng'an had the awareness of a spectator, so he put away his divergent thoughts and continued reading.
In the following content, Ye Qingmei explained that what Fan Xian thought was time travel was actually an experiment in memory data, and he was the only one who succeeded.
Then Ye Qingmei talked about a secret door she had hidden under the pond in Taiping Villa.
Behind the secret door is the secret of the forbidden door, the truth about human extinction, and the secret that can answer all of Fan Xian's doubts.
But after reading further, Mei Chengan couldn't help but complain.
Ye Qingmei had just said that if Fan Xian wanted to know, he could go there and take a look, but then she said that she personally didn't want Fan Xian to explore the matter.
Because once he knows the truth, Fan Xian is destined to return to the place where she fled and face his deepest fear underground.
Mei Chengan: ???
First arouse people's curiosity and get them to go, and then tell them that they will lose their freedom and face extreme danger if they go?
May I ask?!
Isn't this just crazy? You really don't want people to have adventures. You just want them to live a peaceful and happy life. Wouldn't it be over if you just didn't say anything?
Choice? Don't want this thing, tie it to Q!
Hiss~ I almost forgot that this letter is not for myself.
That's fine.
At the end of the letter, Ye Qingmei said something that seemed to be true but was not. She said that there was no true qi in this world, and that the so-called true qi was a product left over from the previous era.
Mei Cheng'an's comment on this can be summed up in two words: sick.
If you want to say something, just say it clearly. If you can't explain it clearly, just don't say it. Being vague and ambiguous is just hooliganism! It's all unnecessary!
'Last sentence, be nice to Wuzhu'
After reading this last sentence, Mei Chengan put down the letter, rubbed his brows and let out a long sigh.
"finish watching?"
Fan Xian put down the teacup in his hand, looked at his fellow villager with a smile and asked.
Mei Cheng'an was still rubbing his eyebrows and hummed when he heard this.
Fan Xian laughed.
"Haha, how was it? How do you feel after reading it?"
Mei Cheng'an put down his hand and looked at him.
"There are so many complaints that I don't know where to start."
Fan Xian: ???
"What's the problem?"
The smile on Fan Xian's face turned into surprise and surprise.
"What's the point? No, aren't you surprised, shocked, or have your worldview shattered after watching it?"
Mei Cheng'an thought about it and shook his head slightly.
This is really not the case, and he doesn't want to pretend or is too lazy to pretend.
"..."
Fan Xian looked at him with a depressed look on his face, not knowing what to say for a moment.
After a long silence, Fan Xian asked.
"You don't believe it?"
This was the only possibility he could think of.
Mei Chengan smiled.
"Yes, I believe it. I just...how should I put it? Look, the Ice Age, the digitization of memories, and the Wandering Earth have all happened before. It's not surprising.
The temple is like... a space station led by Moss, with a freezer, human fire, and an AI robot.
Ah, it’s similar to the existence of your Uncle Wu Zhu. After all, it’s the future world, so it’s not that surprising.
Your mother and Wuzhu both come from the temple, one is a human in the freezer, and the other is a temple robot with awakened consciousness. That makes sense!
Well, what else? Oh, as for the so-called pioneers, aren’t they all there on the murals of the Qing Temple, except that they are painted with green faces and fangs.
Deification is reasonable.
As for your mother saying that there is no true qi in this world, and also saying that there are traces left over from the last era, isn’t that just the nuclear radiation left over from the nuclear war? There is no need to be shocked.
Since people in this world can bear and utilize it, the so-called nuclear radiation becomes a kind of energy. You can call it whatever you want. If you like, you can even call it a little fragrant pig.
Oh, are you confused if you are the only result of memory digitization, then what is my situation?
Oh, why bother about this? Since you are here, why do you care how you got here? It’s meaningless.
Whether it is time travel or memory digitization, it's just a different name.
Is it true that in the parallel world we are no longer in the original world, so what does it matter?
Let me think about what else I haven’t said, ah, the forbidden door.
I am still a little interested in this, but of course only a little. Your mother described the consequences as so serious that I can only retain a little interest. I am timid and I am afraid of death.
If you want to go, don't worry. I will take care of your wife and children. I guarantee they will be plump and healthy. I will have enough money.
By the way, before you leave, remember to pay me Wang Qinian’s salary for the next few decades, which is ten taels per month, in advance.
Um... that's all. Do you have any questions?"
Fan Xian: "..."
