Chapter 228 Origin
Hou Wenjun is not a decisive and cold-blooded person, nor is she a kind person. She has her own code of conduct in dealing with people and things.
"Actually, I have always wanted to ask you a question, how did you see us that night?"
Chen An's stubbornness was beyond her expectations. As for whether he was a real seeker, it still needs to be considered. After all, anyone would say beautiful words, and how many of them were true and false. When all kinds of persuasion were useless, Hou Wenjun was silent for a while, suddenly avoided the important and changed the topic lightly.
This problem is very important because normal people cannot see the situation of sealing space at all. Even with instrument assistance, they can only observe abnormal fluctuations in the space, and it is unknown what happens in the space.
But that night, Chen An was like a peeper who was observing secretly. If the person from the Snake had not noticed him keenly, he might not have been kept in the dark. Afterwards, she had already evacuated with the organization and had no chance to ask.
Now, she has a chance to resolve her doubts.
"Everyone has his own secret, are you different?"
Chen An chuckled and avoided this question. Although his space ability was not awakened, his soul was extremely sensitive to the fluctuations generated by space. Under normal circumstances, he could not see the blocked space. If he could concentrate his thoughts on his eyes, he could see through more or less with calmness.
Nianneng is his trump card for survival, how can he easily be exposed?
"I believe in the principle of equal exchange in everything. Since you don't want to tell your secrets, please forgive me for not telling you what you want to know." Hou Wenjun said lightly.
“…”
Chen An's smile became stronger and stronger. He stared at Hou Wenjun's quiet and moving side face, mixed with the last trace of summer late autumn breeze blew up her black hair. The camera freezes at this moment. In the interweaving and mottled light and shadow, it is like a girl in Western classical oil paintings, full of gorgeous dreams and softness.
"Do you remember the book I recommended to you when we first met at the school cafeteria?"
"Remember."
"A Collection of Strange People and Different Things in Ancient and Modern Times"
She certainly wouldn't forget this book with such obvious nuances.
"In the fifth chapter of the modern chapter of this book, it specifically tells the story of a foreign boy who could see fooling around in the 1980s." Chen An said slowly. "In fact, what he should not see fooling around, but the inner world and the apostle of the psychic power in your mouth, right?"
"Do you want to say that you have the same strange abilities as this young man?" Hou Wenjun said calmly.
"You can understand this way." Chen An shrugged.
"What a perfunctory answer." Hou Wenjun shook his head and said.
"The conclusion cannot be drawn too early. How do you know that I am perfunctory?" Chen An said carelessly. "Maybe you should think about it the other way around. It is precisely because I can see a different world that I want to urgently pursue the truth of the world."
"Is that so? If it's convenient, can you show me your hand?" Hou Wenjun looked at him with a smile.
"certainly."
Chen An reached out and handed it in front of her without any concern.
Hou Wenjun held his hand without saying a word, and then slowly let go of it after a while.
"What is the inspection result?" Chen An asked with interest.
"So you are really an ordinary person." Hou Wenjun's tone was plain and his eyes looked at him seriously. "But the essence in your body is much stronger than that of ordinary people."
"If you have investigated me, you will know that I am not only good at learning, but also persistent in exercising every day." Chen An understates.
Hou Wenjun does not doubt that he is. After all, it is normal for adolescents to be strong in energy. If you add a good work and exercise, you will be more energetic than ordinary people.
After thinking for a long time, she finally said.
"Chen Ping, can you guarantee that you will no longer be able to get to the bottom of it after knowing the inner world and the Psychic Apostle?"
"Of course." Chen An said solemnly with a restrained smile. "I am a person who can distinguish between importance."
"Okay." Hou Wenjun sighed softly. "In fact, I don't have much to tell you, but these things are enough to make you understand the so-called relationship between the inner world and the psychic apostles."
12,800 years ago, a huge meteorite decomposed into tens of millions of tons of burning debris as it crossed the Earth's atmosphere and scattered on four continents. These meteorite remains released toxic gases that pollute the air and block the sunlight, causing a sudden drop in temperature, a large number of animals and plants to die, and permanent changes in the landform, which is what the geological community calls the "New Fairy Wood Incident".
However, what geologists don’t know is that the unknown radiation carried by this meteorite has undergone abnormal changes in a very small number of ancient humans, thus mastering the strange ability of extraordinary phenomena and leading humans to gradually become the overlord of the earth during the long ice age. A large number of myths came into being. Now, the gods and figures in each myth are basically these humans whose bodies have undergone abnormal changes.
As the "Gods" conflicts gradually increased for various reasons, the Ragnarok incident eventually broke out, and a large number of humans with superpowers died, resulting in a complete loss of control of the normal human kingdom that cultivated climate.
When human society entered the feudal era, the superpowers that gradually recovered from rest and recuperation began to be ready to move, trying to control humans like their ancestors again, but they ignored the multiple and complexity of human beings. Humans believe in God requires spiritual sustenance, but humans do not need God to interfere in the present world.
As a result, these psychics were slandered and described as monsters and demons, and became the objects of rejection of human society. In addition, the betrayal of the same kind stood on the human front, and the psychics failed to counterattack. After learning from the lessons, they were hidden behind the scenes and formed a dual world that was opposite to human society. The world of the psychics was the so-called inner world.
There are many names for psychics, until a certain psychic scholar discovered through research and experiments that the psychics in their bodies all came from some unknown and mysterious particle disturbance, which is the soul particles commonly known as the world later. From then on, they were collectively called psychics, or psychic apostles.
Generally, spiritual energy inheritance is inherited through bloodlines. If parents are spiritual apostles, the children born will have a high chance of inheriting spiritual energy. If they are combined with ordinary people, the probability of inheritance will inevitably be reduced. Therefore, in order to ensure the inheritance of spiritual energy and the purity of bloodlines, basically people in the world will not intermarry with ordinary people, and many families even directly combine with close relatives within the country all year round. This can be seen from a certain Western divine system with chaotic relationships. Therefore, the number of spiritual apostles is very rare, and the whole world may be less than 2,000 people.
The above is the origin of the inner world and the spiritual apostles.
"Please ask you another thing, what happened to you last time you fought with that mysterious cloak youth?"
After carefully digesting the secrets of the world that Hou Wenjun talked about, Chen An suddenly asked.
"The world is never lacking in ambitious people, even the inner world is no exception." Hou Wenjun had no intention of concealing it. "The organization I belonged to tend to live in peace with human society, and will not interfere with the development and evolution of human society unless it was absolutely necessary. The guys who fought with me belonged to an organization called the Snake of the Tail. Their philosophy was to establish a kingdom of gods dominated by psychic apostles... But history has proved that their plans were undoubtedly delusions and will never succeed, and would only bring endless disasters and regressions to human society."
"In view of the fact that we have repeatedly destroyed their plans, and the result was that they issued an indefinite pursuit order within them, which would inevitably eliminate our organizational branches in China. Last time, it was because the people of their organization found my whereabouts that a fierce conflict broke out..." Hou Wenjun took out the mineral water from her bag and took a sip, eased the thirst in her throat. "So, now do you understand my situation? Do you have anything else to ask?"
"No more." Chen An smiled and shook his head.
"Since that's the case, I should leave, otherwise I'll call the police if they can't contact me anymore."
As he said that, Hou Wenjun took out his cell phone, looked at dozens of missed calls on it, and then got up and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, she did not forget to remind her.
"Remember our agreement."
"no problem."
Dingling--
Shortly after Hou Wenjun left, the phone in Chen An rang, and the caller ID was Qian Xiaodong.
"Chen An?! Where have you gone? Why can't you find anyone? We just contacted Shen Lingyun who was lost. Where are you now? Let's have lunch together later!"
"No, I've already returned to school."
"What? Go back to school? Are you making a mistake? I won't take you to play like this next time!"
"Feel sorry."
After finishing the call, Chen An looked up at the sunny sky. In fact, he could just lie and explain it, but he didn't, even though he knew that such behavior would make his roommates subconsciously start to isolate themselves.
Because it is no longer necessary.
He stood up and stretched his body lazily. After a moment, he embarked on the journey back to school.
"The goal was to have a private contact with a student named Chen Ping for thirty-six minutes, and the specific content of the conversation was unknown..."
Behind a landscape tree in the blind spot not far from the bench in the small square, Su Yingxiu was wearing sunglasses, her mobile phone was pressed to her ear, looking indifferently at Chen An who had disappeared at the end of the road.
"I understand, I will follow up on the investigation."
After hanging up the phone, Su Yingxiu skillfully switched a number and called.
"Haiyan? I've finished the bathroom here. Where are you?...Okay, I know, I'll hurry over now."
...
...
As the winter vacation approaches, the students are busy with exams and going home. Since the Food Festival, Chen An’s relationship with his three roommates has gradually become cold. Except for eating in class or in the dormitory, they occasionally chat with a few irrelevant things. At other times, people who can’t see them or can’t get into their topics, and they won’t call themselves again even if they have activities.
This isolation can actually be broken, just like four people in the dormitory, three people like to play the same game, and one doesn't like it, but those who don't play the game are often isolated unconsciously because communication has already formed obstacles. The best way to break the deadlock is to actively integrate into them.
Chen An's situation is similar to this example. Qian Xiaodong and Jiang Zhili are both unscrupulous people. Their isolation is nothing more than that Chen An can't play with them. Sometimes when they talk about where to go in the dormitory, whenever Chen An says he wants to participate, they will accept Chen An. However, Meng Fanfei seems to still be jealous of himself because of Chen Lingyun's relationship. Especially when he is frustrated in pursuit, it is a blessing that he has not blamed Chen An for no reason. Don't think it is incredible. This common problem is common in adolescent men and women who are frustrated in their relationship.
But Chen An chose to maintain the status quo.
The so-called "Does the Tao do not plan for each other, and the different aspirations do not make friends with each other.
As a person with a mature mind, there are great differences in his thoughts and behavioral habits, including Qian Xiaodong and others. In short, the age generation gap problem.
Just as a mature middle-aged man in his forties was reborn from his 20s, his thoughts and behavior habits deeply rooted in his bones have determined that he could no longer squander the laughter and tears of youth like an ordinary college student. He is eager for success and recognition and will have clear goals and directions when doing anything.
If you extend the timeline infinitely, and look back suddenly, you will find that the people on the timeline in the past are just insignificant passers-by in life.
So it is not difficult to understand Chen An's behavior.
According to the agreement, he and Hou Wenjun never met again after they parted in the small square. It is not difficult to know about her situation. After all, Qian Xiaodong and others often talk about their affairs in the dormitory. Basically, she is no different from a normal college girl. I heard that she has recently joined a literary club and is busy editing the club and magazine.
If there were no accidents, she would have spent her four years in college without any turmoil. The Psychic Apostle is also a human being. Anyone who survives in human society must have a concealed identity. Her current identity is a student, and perhaps she will be an ordinary white-collar worker after graduation.
From then on, the sea of people is vast and the mountains and rivers do not meet each other.
For a while, Chen An always felt that someone was peeping at him in a dark place, but every time he searched quietly, he found nothing. After a few days, the feeling disappeared, which made him wonder if he was nervous and had an illusion.
Carefully analyze your psychological condition. Since you have feelings, it means that he is subconsciously worried about something.
What were he worried about? After thinking about it, perhaps he thought that the organizational companions behind Hou Wenjun had set their sights on him, and only gave up the behavior of following after confirming that he was not threatening him.
The day after the exam, Chen An took the train home alone.
Students’ winter vacations are often accompanied by a large-scale wave of migrant workers returning home, especially in major cities like the capital, where there are tens of millions of migrant populations alone, and every time they go home, it is difficult to get a ticket.
Through some technical means, Chen An never worried about not being able to buy a ticket.
The train compartment is mixed with fish and dragons, and the sleeper berths are usually much cleaner. It takes nearly eight hours to drive, and most of the time Chen An spends quietly reading on a chair next to the corridor.
While the train was driving on the rails at high speed, suddenly, the whole world became quiet.
The scenery outside the window is still, the passengers of various colors are still.
Only Chen An is not a quiet person.
