Miss Sister is a mysterious creature

Professor Bai Yan was obsessed with the magnificent and mysterious creation wonders in "The Mirror of the Siren", and turned a deaf ear to everything that happened around him, until countless three-fingered hands like branches behind him tightly grasped his clothes. , Pulled him vigorously out of the narrow gap formed by the cage before he reacted.

Bai Yan pulled out his eyes from the world in the mirror, turned his head with a stiff neck, under the scruffy stubble on his pale and thin face, the corners of his mouth were strangely curved, there was still a trace of saliva flowing from his lips, and his cloudy eyes were at the moment Bursting with ecstatic and excited light, it was completely unmoved by the countless dark green skinned mysterious creatures in front of it.

Obviously, his emotions are still in the ecstasy of learning the ultimate secret, and his consciousness is still stuck in the vast universe, swimming between the border of time and the starting point of civilization, and has not fully recovered.

I only heard him speak eagerly, tremblingly propped up his bony body, facing a dense room of "alien creatures", muttering madly to himself, as if he was standing on the podium, wandering in the depths of knowledge. Haiyang, Yixing Trent flying, beaming with joy, gave a speech to the teachers and students of the school.

Bai Yan's voice sounded like a handful of sand, it was hoarse and ugly, but his passionate tone could not conceal his passion and excitement: "So it is, aha—! So it is! Students——"

Facing a group of short "secret keepers", he felt in a daze that he was pointing to the universe: "I tell you, I, I, I saw the beginning of the universe! I learned the ultimate secret of the universe! You know ?"

He made a generous statement: "The beginning of the universe is not the Big Bang at all! What a singularity, ridiculous! Ignorance!"

"Also, there is also the origin of human beings, the origin of life and consciousness, the origin of religion and mythology," Bai Yan waved his hand in the air, and clenched his fists into his chest again, with a mighty gesture, "I know everything , They! They are all there! It's amazing! It's magnificent! It's wonderful! It's too..."

Bai Yan's impassioned speech has not yet reached a paragraph, and he has not yet finished listing the adjectives used to describe the world in the mirror. As if he was suddenly shocked by an electric shock, he fell to the ground trembling all over his body, and his passionate exclamation was suddenly interrupted. Choked in his throat, he could no longer reveal half a clear syllable.

Bai Yan frantically waved his slightly yellowed fingers in front of him due to long-term smoking, as if he still had a lot of exciting content to say, and a babbling sound was constantly released from the depths of his throat.

Bai Luoyu didn't see clearly what the "Keeper of Secrets" did to Bai Yan, she couldn't help but shuddered all over her body, thinking: They are really worthy of the title "Keeper of Secrets" that Nai Jia gave them.

Those short dark green bodies stretched out countless three-fingered hands, and tightly hugged Bai Yan, who was in a trance and unable to speak, just like an ant carrying a huge food, holding the skinny but slender Bai Yan It was placed on top of the head, and it was lifted to the window in neat movements and in unison.

A large number of people walked to the window, but a "Secret Keeper" still stopped at the same place, and it turned its head slowly to look at Bai Luoyu, looking at Bai Luoyu with horror.

"Don't be afraid!" Bai Luoyu heard Naijia whisper beside her.

The "Keeper of the Secret" opened a pair of black and huge pupils, and with a strange posture different from that of human beings, he walked mechanically in front of Bai Luoyu, raised his head, and looked straight into Bai Luoyu's eyes with eyes as deep as the abyss in the ground. inside.

In those eyes, Bai Luoyu didn't feel a trace of soul communication between beings, but only felt a stern and cold scrutiny.

A shudder passed through her whole body, she subconsciously clenched Naijia's hand tightly, pursed her lips into a straight line, and looked back into its eyes calmly as hard as she could.

Bai Luoyu knew in her heart that she was also a human being who had come into contact with the "Mirror of the Siren", and had also used it to find answers about her mother. She must accept the "trial" from the "Keeper of Secrets".

She held her breath and looked at the "Secret Keeper", and saw that there were pupils that were even deeper and bottomless in those huge pupils that were as dark as a dark dead sea.

When the pupils opened, a faint blue light flashed past, reminiscent of some kind of scanning device during the security check.Bai Luoyu thought that it was probably searching its own memory, checking whether there were any relevant scenes about the ultimate secret of the universe.

After a while, the dark pupils of the "Keeper of Secrets" shrank back to their original size, mechanically turned their huge head, and followed the footsteps of other companions to the window.

The thick curtains were raised high again by some strange force, and a dazzling white light suddenly lit up in the sky outside the window, illuminating the dusk as bright as day.

The dazzling white light made people's eyes hurt. When Bai Luoyu opened his eyes again, the densely packed "Secret Keepers" and Bai Yan who had lined up in front of the window had disappeared.

Even the hum of some kind of engine vibration that had always been the background sound disappeared.It should have only been a few seconds before the world returned to silence.

Only the high curtains are still silently telling what happened just now, it's not just an illusion.Just as the curtains were hanging down, Bai Luoyu could vaguely see, in the dim twilight of the sky, a white spot of light like a shooting star whizzed across the sky.

In front of the window, on the floor where countless mysterious and strange light green creatures once stood, there is nothing else at this time, only Naijia's "mirror of the cracked sky" is lying there quietly.

Bai Luoyu picked up the hand mirror with lingering fear, not daring to glance at the deep darkness in the mirror, closed his eyes and quickly handed the hand mirror to Naijia, as if it was a hot potato.

Naijia looked at her stupid look of trepidation, couldn't help but hook her lips slightly, took the hand mirror, and silently put it into the mirror case.

"Najia, what will they do to Bai Yan?" Bai Luoyu bit his lower lip lightly, with a worried look on his face.

Her feelings for Bai Yan are far more complicated than those for Yang Ruobing. Yes, she knows that Bai Yan is the enemy who ordered the Lin clan to kill her parents, but at the same time, he is also the adoptive father who has raised her for 20 years.

There is a big difference between Bai Yan and Yang Ruobing's cruelty and indifference, Bai Luoyu can feel his sincere devotion and protection to him.

Naijia seemed to see her worry, and brushed the soft hair on the top of her head with her hand, and said quietly: "Don't worry about him, he will get everything he wants. Ultimate wisdom, secrets of the universe, travel in time and space... "

"From the vast space, to the edge of time, from the abyss of the seabed, to the center of the earth's core, he will go to many secret places he wants to explore."

"And, finally, become one of the 'Keepers of the Secret'..."

After listening to Naijia's words, Bai Luoyu remained silent for a long time.She understood her adoptive father's obsession with the unknown and his quest for the universe, and she thought: Perhaps, traveling through the mysteries of the universe and mastering all the secrets is really the ultimate goal that Bai Yan's heart desires and his body aspires to.

For some reason, Bai Luoyu's eyes were sad, and he sighed silently.

Naijia poked her serious little face with her hand and said, "Let's go too."

"Are you going to fly back to the hotel?" Bai Luoyu asked a blank question in a daze.

Naijia lowered her long eyelashes, sighed gloomyly, and said in a resentful tone: "Bufei... I was in a hurry to save you just now. I flew over the city for a long time. It should have been seen by many humans..."

"In this world, it's always bad to expose yourself..."

Bai Luoyu quickly took Naijia's hand to coax her obediently: "It's okay, it's okay, we all have ID cards. Miss Su Nai——" She made a cute long voice coquettishly, "In two more days God, we are going to the United States, and I will hide you from others to see!"

Bai Luoyu clenched her small fists and made a firm gesture.Jinwu Zangjiao's posture is well done, which can be said to be very convincing.

Naijia bent the corners of her lips, smiled lightly and remained silent.

Immediately, Bai Luoyu thought of another thing, raised his eyes and asked softly: "Najia, why is there a keeper?"

"Isn't it written clearly in human myths and legends?" Naijia asked back with a slight frown.

"What myths and legends?" Bai Luoyu was puzzled. Mythology is a branch of literature, which belongs to her major. She rolled her eyes and searched for myths about "Keeper of Secrets" in her mind, but found nothing.

Naijia looked at her puzzled look, and pursed her lips lightly.

Just listening to Naijia's calm and magnetic voice, he spit out a few words: "Prometheus steals fire."

"Prometheus stealing fire?"

Prometheus is a descendant of the Titan god in Greek mythology. He created human beings in his own image and brought fire to human beings.

At that time, Zeus, the god of all things in the universe, was quite disapproving of Prometheus' creation of new species.

Later, with the help of Prometheus, human beings mastered the method of using fire, and have since become the primates of all things. When Zeus knew this, he was very angry, tied Prometheus to the cliff, and sent eagles to peck at him every day. eat his liver.

This is a western myth that children are familiar with. Bai Luoyu retells this myth, and doesn't think it has any connection with the "Keeper of Secrets".

Naijia: "Do you know why the myth is written like this?"

"Prometheus brought fire to humans, making humans different from other creatures and becoming the primates of all things. This angered Zeus—?" Bai Luoyu frowned and thought.

Naijia did not answer, and continued: "The Bible, the Old Testament, and Genesis, the snake tempted Adam and Eve, and they ate the fruit of wisdom. Human beings had spiritual knowledge and consciousness, but God expelled them from the Garden of Eden. What do you think? Why?"

Bai Luoyu fell into deep thought. She heard Prometheus and the stories in the "Bible" for the first time when she was a child, and she was puzzled by the two stories mentioned by Nai Jia.When she grew up, she knew that there were countless metaphors hidden in the "Bible" and mythology, and there might be deeper interpretations.

The god of the universe——Why did Zeus punish Prometheus who brought fire to mankind?

The snake made human beings eat the fruit of wisdom, giving human beings a soul, wisdom and shame, different from other chaotic and ignorant life forms, but such human beings were expelled from the Garden of Eden by God...

The cultural connotation of the creature "snake" in later generations is even more polarized.On the one hand, as shown in the Bible, the snake is the embodiment of the devil.

On the other hand, in wider religious beliefs around the world, the snake is a symbol of wisdom and soul, and even a god that conceives all things.

When Bai Luoyu thought of this, a light flashed in his mind, as if he had realized something.

Perhaps, the soul and wisdom are the original sin of human beings. From the perspective of "gods", human wisdom and spiritual consciousness are dangerous signals. They should be like other "creatures of gods", chaotic and ignorant, shameless, and ignorant. He can distinguish between good and evil, doesn't know how to use fire, doesn't know how to explore the world around him, and can't even consciously realize that he is alive.

From the perspective of "human beings", wisdom and spiritual knowledge happen to be the basis that distinguishes human beings from thousands of lives. The reason why human beings are human is the only condition for becoming the primate of all things.It is the "divinity" in the human soul and the most important and precious thing for human beings.

In Greek mythology, the fire that Prometheus brought to mankind and the snake that tempted mankind to eat the fruit of wisdom in the Bible may both represent one thing—a kind of awareness of wisdom and self-awareness.

The created things have wisdom and souls with infinite possibilities. For the "God" who created them, it is a dangerous message and original sin.

Bai Luoyu murmured the conclusion he had come up with: "The gods in your world don't want humans to know too much, and don't want humans to know the secrets of life and the universe, so they sent 'Secret Keepers' to monitor humans?"

"If someone knows the secrets of the universe and the origin of life, the Keeper of Secrets will take him away, just like taking away my adoptive father?"

Naijia looked at Bai Luoyu silently, and only nodded slightly.

Bai Luoyu suddenly felt that she was living in a closed box full of restrictions, and the walls were surrounded by cold iron cages, which made her feel impenetrable.

She complained angrily: "The God who created human beings, how can he be so narrow-minded? So anti-intellectual? Isn't it good to have wisdom and soul? How about knowing the secrets of the universe? Human beings are born with the desire to be curious and explore! "

Naijia couldn't help laughing when she saw Bai Luoyu's righteous indignation, pinched her puffy face, and said softly: "One day, humans will do the same. When the artificial intelligence created by humans has self-awareness When they can think independently, human beings will also feel the crisis, and they will certainly impose various restrictions on them."

Naijia paused, and added: "Human beings, the more they know, the greater their ambitions."

After being told by Naijia, Bai Luoyu suddenly realized that if he stood in the position of "creator", it would not be difficult to understand the meaning of "Keeper of Secrets".

It is roughly equivalent to the human being who created the artificial intelligence, who will face the artificial intelligence at his mercy, and one day suddenly wake up like Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden.With soul, wisdom and personal consciousness, full of curiosity and ambition, start to break free from the creator's control and think independently.

That would be a catastrophe for the creator himself. He had to use certain means to control their wisdom and consciousness, and control the information they had about the world.

Therefore, human beings are like ornamental fish kept in a fish tank, always swimming in place, and can only explore the source code of God's creation of the world, those mathematical symbols, those basic constants, and those obvious laws, but they can never grasp God's "creation" "Ability.

However, with human ambitions, once humans know those secrets and master high-end wisdom, they will definitely find ways to break out of this low-dimensional and cramped time and space, and go to the "God's Domain" to plunder and occupy and divide up resources.

Human beings are never grateful and content, just like the shameless plunder that has been staged countless times in history.

When they found a fertile land, they went to occupy it and enslave it. They called it—discovering a new continent.These, presumably "gods" are cold-eyed.

Bai Luoyu glanced at the "Mirror of the Siren Ripper" in Naijia's hand, and asked timidly: "Naijia, I have seen the Mirror of the Siren Ripper, will I be taken away by the 'Keeper of Secrets' one day. Ahem—I don't like space travel, and I don't want ultimate wisdom, I just want to be with you..."

There was a doting smile on the corner of Naijia's lips, a sly gleam flickered in her eyes, and she said softly: "It doesn't matter if you look at it a few times, you don't look at it again, it will be fine."

After a pause, she came up with a better answer and quickly added: "It's dangerous not to look in the mirror in the future! If you stay by my side all the time and don't run around, you'll be fine!"

Bai Luoyu: "..."

Naijia, you added too bluntly...

Your selfishness is obvious, okay?

The author has something to say: two chapters send away Professor Bai o(*￣︶￣*)o

I hope that the little cutie will not be entangled in this "secret keeper" brain hole, after all, it is just a story~~
