Chapter 88: Star-chasing Journey
Chapter 88: Star-chasing Journey (Part )
"Then I just dumped the apple in my sink and continued to work on my paper."
"My sink drain is clogged, so all the dirty water is from washing dishes, including vegetables and minced meat washed off the plates."
"I didn't expect it." Although I couldn't see Professor Tang's expression clearly, I could sense her strong excitement. "The apple was like a sponge, absorbing all the leftovers in my sink and filling up the holes."
Liu Sheng felt a little numb as he listened.
Some descriptions don’t need to be so detailed, they are too graphic, and she really can’t tolerate this level of filth!
Wen Weilan maintained her outward calm, but her lips were tightly pursed.
Yu Jinling covered her mouth and almost vomited.
Professor Tang seemed not to hear the more outrageous laughter from below, and said excitedly: "Then I picked it up and looked at it carefully, and I felt that it was so familiar!"
"I kept thinking and thinking, and finally I figured it out!"
“Isn’t this our world?”
"Professor Tang" said this solemnly and seriously.
But all that came out was laughter.
There were also some trivial words like "madman" and "crazy woman" mixed in.
At this time, "Professor Tang" on the podium suddenly said: "Speaking of our world, you three are not from here, right?"
Although they couldn't see the eyes, Liu Sheng and the others could feel that "Professor Tang's" gaze was on them.
The laughter around me also stopped, and the whole space became silent.
Those "students" all turned towards them, their resentful looks seemed to be real.
Then an even more terrifying scene appeared!
Their hollow and blurry faces slowly turned into rotten apples full of holes, with countless wriggling maggots crawling in and out of the wilted skin.
They slowly stood up, ready to move.
"Do it!"
Liu Sheng shouted loudly.
The small tentacles moved and swept in all directions.
Now that she has cultivated herself, the little tentacles have become much thicker with the nourishment of spiritual energy, and the golden patterns on their bodies have become more obvious.
As soon as the small tentacles touched the rotten apples, a golden light flashed and tiny electric sparks appeared. The "students"' bodies instantly made a sizzling sound, like meat on a red-hot iron plate, followed by a terrible howl.
The "students" took a few steps back in fear, and there was immediately a large empty space around Liu Sheng.
Yu Jinling took out a string of golden bells and infused them with spiritual energy. As the bells rang, the movements of these strange creatures suddenly slowed down a lot.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, cold light flashed between her ten fingers, and silver needles pierced through the bodies of the nearest "students" like strands of silver threads.
Although Wen Weilan had no cultivation, his instincts were still there. He first put a layer of protective amulet on himself, then drew out his sword, and with the help of Yu Jinling's bell effect, the sword light flowed like water, silently passing through the bodies of the "students".
With every swing of her sword, an apple-shaped head would slide off with a "click".
Although it was the first time for them to cooperate with each other, they still had a good understanding of each other.
Not long after, the ground was filled with shriveled rotten apple heads, and only Liu Sheng and three others were left standing under the podium. The little tentacles grew thicker, and they danced while burping loudly.
All I heard was a soft laugh from "Professor Tang" on the podium, and then black fog rolled in from all directions.
When the black fog dissipated, Liu Sheng found that they were back in the science museum.
It seems that the paintings here probably contain traps, and there are three or four more paintings behind.
Liu Sheng thought silently, turned his head and saw Yu Jinling looking at him and behind him with fear and admiration.
Liu Sheng finally reacted, coughed lightly, and took the small tentacle that was showing off like a peacock behind him into his body.
"So you are a ghost master?" Yu Jinling asked in a low voice. Liu Sheng was puzzled.
But this makes sense, otherwise the existence of the small tentacles cannot be explained.
Moreover, the master of ghosts is a fusion of ghosts and humans, so why am I not counted as one of them?
So he nodded without comment: "Yeah, right."
Yu Jinling took a deep breath and her eyes became even hotter after hearing this.
Even though Chen Shanyuan and the others seem to be quite repulsive to the Ghost Tamers, once they know there is really a Ghost Tamer in their team, they will definitely have to be respectful and humble.
The abilities of the ghost controllers cannot be simply divided according to the existing level of cultivation, because their abilities vary. If they encounter a situation where they have an advantage, they can even challenge opponents of higher levels.
Moreover, judging from the combat performance of Liu Sheng's tentacles just now, their combat power is extremely high and they have a certain restraining effect on monsters, not to mention that they have reached the realm of controlling them at will. Their strength is probably the strongest among all the monster controllers Yu Jinling has seen so far.
This woman needs to be pleased, including "Liu Weiwei" who has little presence beside her.
Liu Sheng ignored Yu Jinling's thoughts and read the text of the picture carefully. It did say that "Professor Tang" published a "rotten apple universe theory", but it was not recognized by the academic community.
There is also an exhibit under the picture, which is a small black, wrinkled thing. Looking at it together, I finally understand that this is a rotten apple.
But as we read the story later, we learn that "Professor Tang's" theories were not only not recognized by the academic community, but were also ridiculed by all the teachers and students in the school where she worked. Therefore, she chose to leave the school and began to explore the true meaning of the universe on her own, and preach and answer questions among the people.
Then the story jumps directly to the end of the meeting between "Professor Tang" and the aliens, and they decide to build a "cosmic village" to jointly inspire the aliens.
The second picture depicts this scene.
In a flash, the three of them came to a desolate valley. The sky was full of stars, and in front of them was a large and extremely simple tent camp.
It looks like a space village that was once a wasteland and not yet built.
There is an empty small square in the middle of the camp. It is called a square, but in fact it is just a place where the weeds have been pulled out and the ground has been leveled.
The shadow of "Professor Tang" stood on a wooden box in the front, looking down at everyone.
There were hundreds of blurry figures in the square, all sitting cross-legged quietly, with shiny iron pots on their heads, as if they were participating in some mysterious ritual.
"Do you feel the energy from the universe?" "Professor Tang" asked softly.
An "iron pot" beside Liu Sheng suddenly screamed excitedly: "I feel it! It seems... it seems that something is talking to me..."
The people around could no longer sit still and started whispering to each other.
"Oh my god, could this guy be able to meet aliens like the professor?"
"Isn't that the second person in the world who can communicate with aliens? How enviable!"
"That's not all, is it? I heard there's a village where everyone has seen aliens!"
"Why can't I feel anything? Is there no hope for me? Wuuuu!" Another figure burst into tears.
"Professor Tang" stretched out his hands and pressed down.
"Everyone, please be patient, please be patient!"
"Professor Tang" was quite majestic at this time. As soon as she spoke, the square became quiet instantly.
"Everyone will have a chance. Be quiet, close your eyes, and imagine yourself as a worm inside an apple."
“Imagine yourself wriggling through the layers of cells, penetrating the apple, sensing the existence outside the apple, and bringing it in.”
"Professor Tang's" voice is calm but also has a firm strength that makes people fall into it unconsciously.
Suddenly, the gentle voice of "Professor Tang" sounded in Liu Sheng's ears.
"Why don't you three close your eyes?"
"And without a signal receiver?"
