Chapter 87: Star-chasing Journey
Chapter 87: Star-Chasing Journey (VIII)
"Aliens? What is that?" Yu Jinling was completely unable to understand the word.
The pancake owner understood her confusion very well: "I didn't know what aliens were before I came to the Space Village."
"After all, in our Tang country, our understanding of the universe is still superficial. I used to teach my students that we live in a place where the sky is round and the earth is flat. Now thinking about it, it is pathetic and ridiculous."
"Who would have thought that what we are standing on is not a flat land, but a sphere?" The boss looked up at the starry sky with an obsessed look, "And the stars above our heads are also spheres like us, or planets."
"It's just that they are so far away that all we can see are just a few pebbles of light from their long history."
Even Liu Sheng didn't quite understand this sentence.
And it was only after listening to Liu Sheng that Wen Weilan reluctantly realized that there were not only theirs but also other worlds in the so-called universe.
But she couldn't quite understand it either.
There is no way to imagine how the stars exist in the vast universe. We can only imagine based on our limited knowledge that Liu Sheng should have something like a mustard seed space that can generate extraterrestrial spiritual energy.
So she should continue to play the role of Liu Sheng's quiet and incompetent pendant.
Liu Sheng said: "So, aliens are creatures living on other planets?"
The boss nodded and said, "This kid is teachable."
Then aren’t She Chan and Master Qixuan aliens?
"Have you ever seen aliens?"
Liu Sheng didn’t know if other people had the same opportunity as her to arrive on another planet in a special way, but since these rumors have not been circulated until now, it means that at least at the popular level, the so-called planets and aliens are just pseudo-concepts.
Sure enough, the boss shook his head regretfully and said, "I haven't seen it yet."
"Where are the other people in the Universe Village?" Liu Sheng asked.
"nor."
"Alas, so far only the head of the Universe Village has seen aliens and even had a conversation with them." The boss's greasy face was full of envy. "It was also after she discussed with the aliens that they decided to establish the Universe Village as the aliens' office in Tang Country to gather everyone's strength and allow more alien civilizations to come."
"Since you have never seen aliens, how can you concentrate your energy?" Yu Jinling couldn't help but interrupt. She was confused and felt very puzzled.
Hearing this, the boss looked at her with some confusion and said, "So you don't believe in aliens because you haven't seen them? Then why did you come to participate in the star-chasing tour? And why did you come to our Space Village?"
Liu Sheng quickly explained: "Of course we all want to see aliens, but we all have different reasons, so we are curious about your reasons and those of the other villagers."
"The village chief said that alien civilizations develop differently. We must learn from the strengths of all of them to have a chance to break through."
"Break through?" Liu Sheng's mind moved.
The boss shrugged: "I don't understand."
"Anyway, for me, there is no need to care about what others think. I am thinking that if aliens come, we will be more united and will no longer exclude others because of certain differences. There will also be no border wars. After all, we belong to the same planet and are of the same race."
"Anyway, you can go to the science museum to learn about aliens, there's everything mentioned there." He pointed his index fingers at the kebab stall with his big and small hands on his right.
This seemed like he was trying to chase them away, as if he was afraid that they would disturb him while he was sleeping at the stall. No, he was trying to receive new customers.
Liu Sheng still insisted, "But I'm still curious, how did you gather the strength to make the alien civilization come?" The boss said lazily, "The village chief said that we can attract alien civilization in our own way. As long as we are sincere, they will know."
"Then what's your method?" Wen Weilan finally couldn't help but ask.
"As for me, I just make the pancakes so that the aliens can eat our authentic pancakes when they come."
……
Fortunately, outside money is accepted here.
After paying for the pancakes and squeezing through the kebab stall and the braised meat stall, you can enter this famous space exploration science museum.
But compared with its grand reputation, the scale of the interior is indeed a bit small. There is not even a window, and the lighting is dim, relying only on a few candlesticks.
The four walls of the room were covered with words and various pictures, but the densely packed words were dazzling under the dim candlelight. There were also many exhibits displayed under the calligraphy and paintings, but they were all quite old and covered in dust. It was obvious that no one usually came to take care of this place.
Liu Sheng and others read it carefully from the beginning.
It is indeed just as the pancake boss said, this science museum includes a lot of what he said, and there are many exciting stories that have not yet been mentioned.
For example, the chief of Universe Village.
Professor Tang, whose name is unknown, birth and death years are unknown, and birthplace is unknown. He is the president of the Space Exploration Travel Agency, the head of the Space Village, the director of the Alien Office in Tang Country, the director of the Alien Civilization Friendship Association, the mentor of cosmic mysticism, the expert on cross-civilization communication, the interstellar scientist, the galaxy painter, the galactic poet, the time-space backpacker, has sticky hands, and is the ambassador of cosmic friendship.
It’s a pity that there is no picture of Professor Tang, otherwise we could see what this person with so many impressive titles looks like.
When Liu Sheng saw the first picture, his heart suddenly trembled, as if he had some kind of wonderful resonance.
The brushstrokes of this picture are rather crude and childish, but one can vaguely see that it is a picture of a classroom filled with students, with a blurry figure on the podium.
"What is this painting about?" Yu Jinling also found it very strange and moved her eyes closer to see it more clearly.
The candlelight is getting dimmer and dimmer, and my vision is getting blurrier and blurrier...
Yu Jinling quickly shook her head and opened her eyes wide.
Then the sight before her made her heart skip a beat and she almost jumped out of her seat.
"Liu Weiwei" was sitting next to her. She turned her head and made a "hush" gesture with her finger on her lips.
"She Chan" sat on the other side, looking ahead seriously, as if listening to the nonsense of the blurry thing on the podium.
Although Liu Sheng didn't know how he got here, it was a good opportunity to hear what the incarnation of "Professor Tang" in front of him had to say.
"Have you ever tried eating an apple that is full of holes bitten by insects?" "Professor Tang" asked the "students" below, and the voice sounded like a woman.
When Liu Sheng saw the "students" around him who were as dark as the professor, they immediately burst out laughing when they heard this.
Although this is indeed funny, I always feel that the laughter of these "students" is a little too sharp.
Professor Tang ignored their exaggerated reactions and continued, "One day, I found an apple from the refrigerator. I was thinking about my paper and didn't read it carefully. I took a big bite and found something soft and juicy."
"When I looked down, I found that the place where I had bitten was half of a worm, and my apple was full of holes made by the worm biting and drilling."
I am disgusted by myself………(⊙＿⊙；)…
