Striving for Science

Chapter 22: The worldview is broken

"No." Shen Changan said subconsciously, "It won't kill him."

As soon as the words fell, the thunder fell on the man. This time he failed to dodge successfully. The whole person was blackened by the thunder and fell to the ground motionless.

"Dead, dead?" The young man who followed Shen Changan widened his eyes in horror, and subconsciously grabbed Shen Changan's sleeve.

He turned his head and glanced at the hand that was gripping his sleeve: "Wu Wei, take your hands and hooves away."

"Hands are hands, hooves are hooves..." Wu Wei reluctantly retracted his hand, but he didn't dare to get too far from Shen Changan.

Shen Changan ignored him, approached the person who fell on the ground carefully, and stopped two or three meters away from him: "Hey, buddy, are you still alive?"

The "burnt corpse" lying on the ground was motionless, Shen Changan looked up at the sky, and after taking several steps back in a row, did he dare to take out his phone and turn it on.

"Changan, what are you going to do?"

"What else can I do, of course call the police and ambulance." Shen Changan said angrily, "Otherwise, what else can I do?"

"Don't, don't call an ambulance." The black lump lying on the ground suddenly moved, like a corpse. Shen Changan, who thought he was more daring, couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"I'm fine." The dark "charred corpse" stretched out his hand tremblingly, and slowly got up from the ground, his clothes scorched to ashes by the lightning and fell down, revealing his dark skin.

"Wait." Shen Changan turned around and took off Wu Wei's jacket, and threw it into the arms of "The Burnt Corpse": "It's indecent, put it on quickly."

"Chang'an, why did you pick me up?" Wu Wei whispered, "It's hard to wash these clothes when they get dirty..."

"Because I'm not wearing a coat." Shen Changan raised his eyebrows, "Or do you want to see his dark body?"

"Forget it." Wu Wei felt that this scene was really irritating, so he hid behind Shen Chang'an and asked, "Brother, what happened to you just now, how about the calamity?"

"Isn't it." The man tied his coat around his waist, "I managed to carry it, and almost killed me." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Chang'an and Wu Wei, "I'm going down here. Barrier, you shouldn't have broken in, how did you get in?"

Wu Wei: "Just riding a bicycle, riding... riding... I came here."

"I'm going through a calamity, I shouldn't be seen by you, let alone you are just ordinary people." The man looked down at the jacket around his waist, "I will return the money to you, but you can't keep this memory. "

After speaking, he suddenly reached out and waved in front of the two of them.

Shen Changan stared blankly at the man in front of him. He could understand every word he said, not only after being linked together, why was it so unscientific

"Chang'an?" Wu Wei shook his head, "Can you forgive me, I have explained to the school about the dissertation, but I haven't been able to contact you since then."

"You..." Shen Changan looked at Wu Wei with a complicated expression, "Remember what happened just now?"

"Remember, we met a homeless man just now. I saw that he was pitiful, so I gave him a coat." Wu Wei was overjoyed, and Changan was finally willing to take care of him.

Hearing this sentence, Shen Changan's mind was a little dazed.

It's like there's a clown dancing with the fairies and pulling him to join in. He's standing in the middle of the dance floor, and the whole world is noisy and unreal.

Maybe the buzzing sound in his head was not the shock of his heart, but the sound of the broken view.

At that moment, he wondered if Wu Wei joined forces to act with others, but he rode this road over, how could Wu Wei arrange for people to act in advance? What's more, Wu Wei doesn't have that much money, and inviting people to perform special effects is comparable to the scenes of world-class blockbusters.

So... what happened to the world

"Changan, Changan?" Wu Wei saw Shen Changan's pale face, as if he had encountered something unacceptable.

Shen Changan took out the money from his body and stuffed it into Wu Wei's hand: "The coat money, you take it."

"what happened… "

"Let me be quiet." Shen Changan pushed Wu Wei away, and sat down on the stone next to him, his whole body dazed.

Memories of childhood flashed in my mind like a quick glance. The death of the parents, the madness of the grandmother, and the gust of wind outside the country courtyard.

He knelt in front of his father's portrait, night after night, the useless water that his grandmother drank with her chin stuck.

There are no ghosts...

still have

If so, why has he never seen the undead of his parents

If not, what is he seeing now

Shen Changan took off his glasses, looked up at the man who was adjusting his coat around his waist, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Is there a ghost in the world?"

"Of course..." The voice of the person covered in pitch black paused, turning his head to look at Shen Chang'an defensively, "Why did you suddenly ask me this question?"

"What happened to the thunder and lightning just now?" Shen Changan looked up at the sky, "What's in there?"

"You..." The man turned his head to look at Wu Wei, quickly approached Shen Changan, and asked in a low voice, "Do you still have your memory?"

Shen Changan looked at him without speaking.

"Strange, how could it not work for you?" The man didn't believe in evil, and waved in front of Shen Changan again, "Remember?"

"Remember." As far as Shen Changan was concerned, the other party just waved his hand in front of him. There was no special effect of light and fog in fantasy dramas, nor did he get dizzy and dark in front of his eyes in psychological dramas.

It's just a simple, even silly gesture.

"Strange, could it be that I survived a fake cultivation calamity?" The other party squatted in front of Shen Changan with a face full of frustration.

Shen Changan stared at him for two seconds, and said in disgust, "Squat down and go up."

"Do you know who I am, I am a Celestial Master, treat me with respect."

"Even if you are a Celestial Master, I'm not interested in your dirty body." Shen Changan turned his head ruthlessly, "Spicy eyes."

other side:"… "

After a brief silence, the young man who claimed to be a Celestial Master spoke up: "My name is Zhang Gu, and I am from the Zhang family." ? If you want to read Feng Shui or fortune telling, you can come to me, meeting is fate, and I can give you 95% off."

"I just don't want to talk to someone who destroys my worldview." Shen Changan looked at the few weeds next to him, his face indifferent.

"Don't be like this. Didn't Newton say that the end of science is theology." Zhang Gu comforted, "Just get used to it."

"Newton didn't say that." Shen Changan retorted, "This sentence was made up by someone else."

"Yes, is that so?" Zhang Gu was a little uncertain, "I have been a scumbag since I was a child, maybe I remembered it wrong. It wasn't what he said, it must be what Einstein said."

"Einstein didn't say that either." Shen Changan suddenly fell silent, and after a long time, he asked in a trembling voice, "Do people really have souls after they die?"

"Yes." Zhang Gu said, "But this life is the end of this life, and death is the end of everything. We cultivators only focus on this life, not the next life."

"If I did a lot of good deeds in my lifetime, will I have a good life in the next life?" Shen Changan asked.

"There should be. Buddhist practitioners understand things like karma and reincarnation more clearly." Zhang Gu was a little embarrassed. Not only was he a scumbag in school, but he was not considered a genius in the cultivating circle, otherwise he would not be able to. In the case of no preparation, he began to cultivate for calamity.

Shen Changan saw pedestrians passing by not far away. They talked and laughed as they walked away, as if they could not see a person with disheveled clothes not far away.

"Your physique is a bit special. I can't erase your memory. I can only wait for the teachers to come back from the north and leave it to them to deal with it." Zhang Gu looked at Shen Changan, and then looked not far away, squatting under the roots of a tree Wu Wei, who plucked the bark, said, "The most urgent task is to ask your buddies to help me buy a set of clothes and come back. I am afraid that after I leave the barrier, I will be arrested by the police for violating public security management."

"I thought you could take things from the air, or fly with your sword." Shen Changan glanced at Zhang Gu.

Zhang Gu felt that there was a strong air of contempt in his eyes, "I thought I was a king, but it turned out to be just a bronze".

He touched his nose: "What about taking objects from the air, flying with the sword, we cultivators also pay attention to scientific theories."

"So the conclusion is that you can't do it." Shen Changan stood up and patted the dust on his buttocks.

"Where are you going?" Seeing that Shen Changan was about to leave, Zhang Gu was a little nervous. He couldn't stay here all the time, waiting for someone from the division to bring him clothes, right

"Go buy you clothes." Seeing the other party hugging his knees and sitting pitifully on the stone, Shen Changan felt that the legendary temperament of the cultivator would be defeated by Zhang Gu.

He rode his bike and bought a set of sportswear in a nearby store. When he came back, Zhang Gu was still sitting on the stone in that posture.

"Take it and wear it." Shen Changan threw the clothes into Zhang Gu's arms and turned to leave.

"Wait, wait." Zhang Gu put on his trousers and put on his clothes while chasing Shen Changan. "You can't leave yet. Promise me first that you must not tell me what you just saw."

"Who will believe it?" Shen Changan asked back, "Other people will only think that I am bragging."

"That's also true..." Zhang Gu put on his clothes, "Then you can look at Feng Shui in the future. You can come to me. Although I haven't learned to look at Qi, I can still look at Feng Shui."

"Chang'an." Wu Wei also came over, he looked at Shen Chang'an eagerly, "Where do you live now, I'll come to see you tomorrow, okay?"

Over the past year, for some unknown reason, his work has been exceptionally unsatisfactory. The internship unit has not issued an internship certificate, and the work unit is in arrears with wages. He finally found a serious job, but was transferred to a remote city like Wuming City. He wanted to take advantage of the lack of formal After working for a day or two, he was locked in a strange mountain spring villa.

If it wasn't for Shen Changan's accidental intrusion, he and the other passengers might not be able to escape at all.

In the police station at the moment, Yao Huailin and Team Li are still working overtime all night. In particular, their people found that there were still dozens of skeletons in the villa. According to the preliminary judgment of the forensic doctor, the death times of these skeletons were different, and the earliest ones may have died hundreds of years ago.

However, there is no accurate result yet, and the forensic examination is still pending.

"This case, how do you see it?" Yao Huailin looked at the photos of the corpse at the scene and invited the person in charge of the scenic spot over.

"Today, when you accompany us up the mountain to find this villa, your expression was a little off." Yao Huailin tapped on the table, "Do you know these criminal suspects?"

"Comrade police, how could I possibly know such criminals? My expression is wrong, that's because...because..." The person in charge of the scenic spot gritted his teeth, "There is no such villa in our scenic spot at all, it seems to pop up out of nowhere. the same."
