Mysterious Tribulation

Beluga City.

Happy Home Community.

Aaron, dressed in casual clothes, walked past the door.

The access control face recognition system automatically opened the door, and the security guard in the guard box saluted.

Aaron nodded, came to the apartment he rented, and brushed his face directly.

The door opened at once, and a mechanical voice sounded: Galaxy Smart Home is at your service...Master, you have a courier arriving.

Aaron came to the living room and found a courier box. After opening it, there was a virtual game helmet inside.

He didn't put it on, just put his hand on it.

An idea emerged, got into the virtual helmet, and instantly came to a private space full of sci-fi.

【drop! 】

【Hello! Blue Star Citizen Aaron...ID #￥￥@! Do you want to register a unique game account? 】

Aaron is already a citizen of Blue Star, and he has a complete resume since childhood, without the slightest problem.

This is of course the use of some mysticism methods when applying for household registration.

At this time, he nodded directly: Yes!

The world is full of joy!

A cheerful voice sounded, and then, Aaron saw game apps emerge one by one.

There are all kinds, from science fiction, martial arts, to mythology, Taoism... everything.

If it's a 100% simulation, it's no different from crossing.

Aaron didn't choose the game, but went to his private space and turned on the luxurious one-wall TV.

On the TV, a lecture program is being broadcast:

Moderator: Hello everyone, today we have the honor to invite an expert in Chinese history, the 'first person in alien history and archaeology' - Professor Adam Smith, to interpret a piece of ancient history for us.

Adam Smith was in his fifties, with blond curly hair and blue eyes, with typical Western characteristics, when he opened his mouth, he spoke in eloquent Mandarin: Hello everyone... I'm glad to be a junior. Chi-speaking history program... Hello, Sister Xiaozhi!

Moderator Xiao Zhi: Hello...Professor Adam Smith, you have always been obsessed with the study of ancient Chinese history, and you have put forward some very interesting viewpoints, which coincide with some viewpoints on the Internet today...For example, the battle for the deer the truth?

Adam Smith showed a bright smile: Yes, there is a saying in Shu Yi Ji: Chi You 'eats iron and stone', and the same is true of his eighteen brothers, some of them have visions, many hands and many feet, and Sanxingdui Archaeological finds bear similarities…”

Moderator Xiao Zhi: Taiping Yulan said: 'The Chiyou brothers are eighty-one people, and they speak the language of beasts, with copper heads and iron foreheads, and eat sand and stones'. It seems that there are indeed some stories.

Yeah... If we imagine that Chi You is actually an alien, is everything easy to understand? Aliens, no matter how strange they look, are all possible... Even, Chi You may be an alien. A robot, its behavior of eating iron and stone may be devouring minerals to repair itself, or even extracting underground oil as a source of energy!

Adam Smith said a hypothesis, and then laughed: But no matter what, the battle for the deer in history is a real thing, Huang Di and Chi You, at least the leaders of the two major clans... They may not be aliens. Big, the one who really has the suspicion of aliens is actually - Hongjun!

Hongjun? That Hongjun who's one to pass on three friends, two to teach interpretation, the leader of Xuanmen, and one to transform Hongjun? The host Xiaozhi had obviously done his homework.

Haha, the word Hongjun actually comes from a book of the Ming Dynasty - Fengshen Romance, which has a huge chronology from the orthodox Chinese mythology...

Adam Smith said: The myths we are familiar with, such as Pangu opening the sky, Nuwa mending the sky, Hou Yi shooting the sun, Jingwei filling the sea, etc., are mostly formed in the Qin and Han dynasties... For example, the word Pangu originated from the Wu people during the Three Kingdoms period. Xu Zheng's Three-five Calendars, and Nuwa's earlier, from The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Great Wild West: 'There are ten people with gods, named Nuwa's intestines, who turned into gods, lived in the wild of Li Guang, and crossed the road. where.'

Not only is the age different, but the spiritual core is even more different. The myths of the ancient ancestors are about the pride of fighting the sky and the earth. If the sky is leaking, the sky must be filled.

And when it comes to Hongjun, the way of heaven has been set, all gods will be subordinated to Hongjun, the holy position has long been fixed, and it is full of a kind of class and fixed thinking... In fact, the orthodox Buddhist and Taoist schools , do not recognize the god Hongjun. Therefore, the emergence of the Hongjun myth can be regarded as a cultural evolution and countermeasure!

Why is this so?

Could it be that during the Ming Dynasty, an alien descended, and he named himself 'Hongjun', and his power was too powerful, even overwhelming despair... It left a deep impression on those who saw him. The psychological shadow of 'Hongjun is invincible', thinking that all immortals and gods should be subservient to it... Later, it was the novel Fengshen Romance...

Adam Smith said it all right.

The host Xiao Zhi was delighted: Professor Adam Smith really has an active mind and a broad vision...

Anyway, her this is not a serious archaeology show, how to entertain!

She smiled: Hongjun is an alien? It seems that the professor is a firm third-type contact, an alien existence... I wonder if you have any evidence?

Evidence? Of course I have!

Adam Smith answered without hesitation: It's the virtual reality technology launched by the Blue Star Human Alliance...Aren't you surprised? The alliance's virtual reality technology can simulate pain 100%, like a second world... Those players are too It's too real, there are many people who are mentally ill or even mentally ill after quitting the game... But an alliance with such powerful technology can't even make a qualified artificial intelligence, which leads to the high-level NPC of the game company. Acting as a real person... This is the biggest bug! The Blue Star Alliance must have made contact with the third type long ago and obtained virtual reality technology from aliens, but it was lame! This is the most reasonable explanation!

The corner of the host Xiaozhi's mouth twitched: Cough...Professor, these are all your speculations, there is no evidence!

...

Aaron watched this talk show in his private space.

These days, he also obtained a lot of information from the library and the Internet.

Intuitively, he wanted to watch this show, and it had already explained everything.

Still, Aaron simulated a coin in the virtual world and tossed it.

Snapped!

The coin is heads up, which means yes.

What the professor said is true! ! !

...

Come on, let's change the subject.

Sister Xiaozhi got a signal from the director and quickly changed the topic: If there are aliens, it should be good for us humans... After all, they all gave us technical support...

Ha ha……

Professor Adam Smith shook his head: Humanity...too fragile! Don't say that we have weapons that can destroy the world...In fact, we can only destroy human beings...Even in 2077, even one sixth of the speed of light spacecraft It can’t be built, and even the plan to colonize the moon is still on paper…”

According to my point of view, cosmic civilization should be divided into three grades. The first grade can fully utilize all the resources of the planet. Unfortunately, the Blue Star people can't do it... We can only use the Blue Star's subsurface energy to a limited extent... So , Blue Stars are at the bottom of the alien technology level!

Once contact with aliens, even if there is no dark law of direct destruction... it is equivalent to the establishment of diplomatic relations between the former feudal country and the country after the completion of the industrial revolution, becoming a raw material market and a dumping ground for commodities, which is already the best ending. As for worse, think about the history of the slave trade and the Indians...

...

Snapped!

Aaron casually turned off the TV.

Third contact, aliens are real? Funny... so funny!

He touched his chin: But I don't want to go to outer space, I just want to fish...

The previous clone was exhausted and worked hard, and finally tried his best to kill [Dari Tathagata]... It's too bad, I want to take a vacation, I want to play games...

Since virtual reality games are related to alien civilizations, I also play games to investigate... I can't blame me for this deity!

Thinking of this, he began to browse the previous game apps.

Many games have introductions, as well as a large number of video and text introductions, which make people dazzled.

Of course, more expensive is the price!

Even the cheapest game costs 8,000 alliance coins a month.

Yes, these virtual reality games are all based on the point card system, using money to buy time!

Of course, because of the different flow of time, one day in the real world is equivalent to one year in the game world!

In one month, you can play for thirty years!

At this time, you can't use virtual helmets, but you must go to the virtual game warehouse and replenish nutrition regularly, so that talents will not be too weak.

According to the anti-addiction system released by the alliance, after playing the game for one month in a row, humans need to rest for at least ten days before they can re-enter the game.

Even so, there are still many people who can't distinguish between games and reality.

Many experts have called for coalition legislation to stipulate that virtual games cannot be 100% realistic, but it has never been passed, and the inside story is deep.

Aaron didn't care about that.

He wouldn't starve to death even if he played games with a helmet on for a hundred years!

Also, there is still some money in the account.

Of course, this was earned by him using regular means (no wonder), to ensure that the anti-money laundering department of the alliance could not find him (this is true).

With Aaron's extraordinary ability, it is really easy to play with the Blue Star civilization, which has not yet entered the interstellar era.

'The hometown has become a parallel world, and there are aliens. ’

'Ontology should want me to inquire about the situation carefully, and learn the advanced technology of the alien system by the way...'

‘But whatever, let’s play first! ’

Aaron chose a game called Sword Moving Rivers and Lakes!

[Spend 10,000 Alliance Coins and recharge for 30 days! 】

[Drop... The world of the heavens is endlessly fun! 】

...

Aaron's eyes darkened.

When I opened my eyes again, I came to a quaint street.

The bluestone pavement seemed to have just rained, and it was still moist.

Sure enough!

Aaron picked off a dog's tail grass on the side of the road, held it in his mouth, and felt the slightly bitter fragrance of the grass: No wonder some people have been cattle and horses outside for several years, just to play a game... Well, in the game Being an emperor for decades inside is no different from getting a second life through transmigration, isn't it?

At this time, he realized that there was a fluorescent plate in front of him.

The above requires him to set his own nickname.

As for the user name already bound, it is his unique game account number, which is tied to his citizenship and cannot be hidden or modified.

Once you meet a player whose game account number is invisible, it goes without saying that he must be a lawbreaker!

Aaron thought for a while and typed his name:

[Nickname: Waves over the sky]

Then, there is a background introduction:

[The situation in the world is beyond my generation, and as soon as I enter the rivers and lakes, the years will remind me. In the chatting and laughing of Emperor Tubaye, it is a drunken life. 】

[In today's world, there are eight major sects, six major demon gates, the imperial court is in the sky, and the Quartet is suppressed... All the young people have swords in their hands, and they have a dream in their hearts... One day, they will be famous in the rivers and lakes! 】

【This person, could it be you? 】

...

[Player waves are overwhelming, you have come to Novice Village - Qixuan Town! 】

[You have obtained: basic swordsmanship, copper plate × 100! , Iron Sword × 1! 】

In Aaron's mind, a set of basic swordsmanship emerged, stabbing, picking, flirting, blocking... with a single-minded look, it was very rigid.

And his hands sank, a string of copper coins appeared in his left hand, and a rusty surface appeared in his right hand, like a three-foot long sword with a long history!

Goooo!

Just then, his stomach growled.

Aaron touched his stomach and felt a little hungry.

As expected of a 100% simulated reality game... but only a little money is given at the beginning, pit!

He complained and walked into a nearby restaurant.

A junior immediately stepped forward: Master... What do you want to eat?

‘Little Er, drink up! Two more pounds of beef! ’

Aaron groaned in his heart, and then looked at the signboard: Bring me three steamed buns one for one copper plate!

okay!

Xiao Er smiled and said: The guest official has come from a long way, and he will definitely be able to make a name for himself. The shop will send a pot of clear tea first to show our respect!

what?

Aaron looked at Xiao Er's smart eyes, and knew that he was not an ordinary NPC, but a high-level NPC who was hired by the game company to seal the memory.

But he didn't say anything, just sat down and looked inside the shop, and found that there was actually a player!

With a nickname that only players can see on his head - 'Jin Dayong', a young man with a short stature came over: Brother... a newcomer?

As a player, what you want is an immersive experience, so players will try to follow their own identity settings as much as possible, and will not easily say something in reality.

Yes, Brother Jin, hello! Aaron saw the other party's account, smiled, and asked Jin Dayong to sit down.

What? Do you think there are too many high-level NPCs? Jin Dayong was a familiar face and said directly: Actually, because Qixuan Town is a novice town, there are only a lot of high-level NPCs here. You can go out for more than ten miles to reach Taohua. Looking at the village, Quan Te is an artificial mentally retarded. Well, those NPCs are still a bit stronger than the artificial mentally retarded, but they are too stupid and their brains are not flexible. The only high-level NPC is the old village chief... But he has no missions there for a long time. Now, many of the tasks here are one-offs, and once they are triggered, they are gone.
