Chapter 99: Star-chasing Journey
Chapter 99: Star Chasing Journey (XIX)
"What? Are you guys at Hanshan Academy scared?"
After all, Kuang Bowen spent three years studying Tiangong before becoming the chief, and he couldn't stand seeing someone being promoted shortly after entering school and being divided into different subjects.
I was curious about what kind of genius he was, but I also felt that a newcomer could never be as good as me, a senior.
Maybe the fame of Hanshan Academy is just undeserved.
This is what Kuang Bowen thought deep in his heart. He has always been indignant that Chaosui Academy is always suppressed by Hanshan Academy.
Are the top ten academies really so powerful?
It's nothing but empty reputation accumulated over the years.
Many of their martial arts students can successfully challenge the disciples of Hanshan Academy.
Although Chaosui Academy is a second-rate academy, its diligence is no less than that of the students from the top ten academies. Why should they be divided into different levels and looked down upon by the world just because of their academy origins?
It is said that even the imperial examinations would give priority to students from the top ten academies, because according to the academic tradition, the examiners basically came from the top ten academies.
When he was young and energetic, he could not stand the injustice of the world, so he, Kuang Bowen, decided to take a look.
Seeing his stubbornness, the kind disciple shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm afraid, it's just that Senior Sister Liu is simply too busy."
"Senior Sister Liu has always felt that these competitions and challenges are just a waste of her time. She said that she didn't learn Tiangong to compete with others for fame and ruthlessness."
Kuang Bowen sneered: "What is that for?"
See what excuse she can come up with.
"Let me tell you, let me tell you!" Another disciple who loves to join in the fun answered first, "Senior Sister Liu said, of course it's to make money for retirement! If you fight with others, you have to use materials to do unplanned things, which is a waste of money and time!"
"Wasting time is equivalent to shortening one's life, that's what Senior Sister Liu said." The disciple added, "So if someone wants to die, let him get first place."
Kuang Bowen was dumbfounded. He never thought it could be said like this, and it made sense?
"Then how did you recognize such a new disciple as your leader?" Kuang Bowen was still puzzled.
The disciple said, “I can see that.”
"Yes, the master said it. At first glance, Senior Sister Liu is different from ordinary people like me." Another disciple nodded, not caring whether the analogy was appropriate or not.
At that time, Kuang Bowen was still very puzzled. He returned home with nothing for no apparent reason.
It was not until later, when the joint examination between the two academies came, that he finally understood what "being able to see" meant.
The test question at that time was to make a mirage that recorded images according to Minister Ling's drawings.
Liu Sheng's refining ideas and refining techniques are different from theirs. He can always come up with some entry points that they can't think of, and take the original design to a higher level.
Finally, she made a camera that could fly in the air and take overhead photos of mirages, with clarity and color far exceeding what anyone had done before.
Even his mentor said that this girl was born to optimize spiritual weapons.
"What about designing spiritual weapons?" he asked at the time.
"Silly child, it is so difficult to start from scratch, and not everyone can become Minister Ling." The mentor shook his head.
"It is extremely difficult to add icing on the cake. After all, what we teach are all spiritual tools that have been polished to perfection by generations since the first year of the God's Manifestation."
"I think she's still a little bit short." The mentor concluded.
Unexpectedly, because of this sentence, Kuang Bowen gave up the study of nature and concentrated on practicing.
If she can't do it, what's the point of him continuing to study.
He didn't want to just add icing on the cake, he wanted to step into uncharted territory.
Now exploring the strange place can be considered as such.
He just didn't expect that she would come too. He recognized her immediately when he saw the way she repaired the car.
After all, he always dreamed about the exam and woke up in a sweat.
……
"you are wrong."
Wen Weilan sat next to Kuang Bowen and listened to the whole story. Her eyes fell straight in the direction of Liu Sheng in front of her and she shook her head and said.
"What's wrong with me?"
“It is not meaningless to add icing on the cake. Only by constantly adding icing on the cake can you know how to make a real flower.”
Hearing this, Kuang Bowen's head buzzed and he stood there with his mouth open for a long time. He understood a little, but he didn't seem to understand.
But before he could sort out his thoughts, he suddenly heard Liu Sheng outside the car shouting, "Everyone, don't move!"
"The stars in the sky...are moving, uh, into a line."
Wen Weilan was horrified and worried about the safety of Liu Sheng who was still outside, but since the tour guide Li Mingzhu said so, it would be better not to move.
Chen Shanyuan, who was sitting next to Lao Wang, also reacted immediately after hearing this: "Everyone, don't move!"
"Bo Wen, Jun An, Liu Weiwei, Yu Jinling, Song Ru, take good care of the people around you. They are unconscious now, don't let them move."
"She Chan, take care of yourself." He said to Liu Sheng again.
"Okay, it's quite interesting for me to watch the changes in the starry sky here."
Liu Sheng's voice came from afar. It was clearly right at the front of the car and outside the door, but it seemed to come from a very far away place, as if there was a barrier between them.
……
Liu Sheng looked up at the sky and indeed found it very interesting.
It was the first time she had seen such a celestial phenomenon.
The stars that were clearly moving slowly in the night sky along predetermined trajectories at a speed that was unrecognizable to the human eye now looked like a pile of tiny diamonds stuck on a piece of black paper, flowing straight along the crease because the paper was folded in half.
No, it should be facing one direction, forming a dazzling band of light, while the darkness outside the light band appears particularly deep.
There seemed to be something hidden in the darkness.
Because she couldn't move now, she had to sit cross-legged on the ground and took out "Primary School Students Reading Quantum Mechanics" to continue reading.
"Sister, sister, aren't you worried?" asked the doll tree.
"Why worry?"
"This astrological sign is totally abnormal!"
"Is this okay? In our world, there is a huge face in the sky."
"Really? I really want to see it!" The doll tree immediately became interested.
"Then you have to leave here. It's a pity that you don't know anything."
Liu Sheng said coldly, turned to the next page, and looked at the book with his tentacle eyes, still maintaining the posture of looking up at the starry sky.
"Who said I don't know..." Wawashu said with a pout, but suddenly covered her mouth.
"You really don't know."
"Hmph, forget it. Think about it yourself." The baby tree sat down dejectedly. The leaves on its head wilted a little, and the bare branch sticking out from its head looked much rougher.
"But you don't have to go out and look. I think the sky is almost the same with this one." Liu Sheng looked at the sky and suddenly said softly, "I feel that everyone's routine is similar, except that there is some more... quantum mechanics here."
The baby tree didn't understand and looked up in fear, but she could see nothing except the strip of light.
"How high is the sky?" Liu Sheng continued to mutter to himself.
She stretched out her hand, spread her five fingers and reached up to the sky, as if she wanted to touch the sky.
But it is indeed untouchable and out of reach.
Liu Sheng looked at the intermittent bands of light blocked by her palms, which gradually became distant between her fingers and slowly scattered into the stars that originally filled the sky.
She put aside the book "Quantum Mechanics for Primary School Students" in her hand and looked around.
It seemed that nothing was different around him. It was still the same wilderness, and the same almost-scrapped car behind him.
There was also the doll tree sitting obediently beside him, holding its cheek and looking at Liu Sheng curiously.
Wen Weilan asked with concern from inside the car: "Is it over?"
Everything is the same as before.
But Liu Sheng just felt that something had changed quietly.
What's the difference?
