Chapter 168 When the fake is true, the truth is also false
In the laboratory.
After hearing what Li Xiu said, Yi Yuankui said with a strange expression: "By the way, how did Fellow Daoist Xie get his immortal body?"
"Of course it comes from the power of the indescribable creature." Li Xiu glanced at Yi Yuankui: "You know, it is the curse of the indescribable creature."
"That power cannot be explained by common sense."
"Okay." Since it was related to an indescribable creature, Yi Yuankui no longer dwelled on the matter.
Everyone continued to observe Xie Shen's condition in the laboratory.
…
I don’t know how much time has passed.
When Xie Shen opened his eyes again, he found that he had arrived in a very familiar room.
"This place is."
Looking at the layout and furnishings in the room, Xie Shen was shocked: "Isn't this the dormitory I lived in when I was in college?"
"I was actually in a dream, traveling back to my previous dormitory??"
If all the time Xie Shen spent on Tianyuan Star and on Earth were added together, then he would have lived for more than 1,200 years.
Those memories about college have long been blurred in his mind.
Now that the past scenes reappeared, Xie Shen couldn't help but reveal a trace of reminiscence in his eyes.
He looked around and finally followed his instinct to the dormitory balcony and looked into the distance.
Xie Shen saw it:
Pedestrians on the road, birds in the sky, and leaves and branches swaying left and right after being caressed by the breeze.
Everything seemed so real.
He could even smell a hint of laundry detergent in the air.
——It was caused by a classmate who was too sloppy when washing clothes and failed to clean all the remaining laundry detergent on the clothes.
I have to say.
The reality of dreams derived from the "dream" of unspeakable creatures has reached the point where it is no different from the real world.
It’s really scary to think about it.
On the balcony.
Xie Shen was thinking when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the corridor.
The next second, two familiar figures were seen entering the dormitory one after another.
These two were Xie Shen's roommates in college.
The fatter one among them said to Xie Shen.
"Son, when the roll call was just called, dad had already shouted 'arrive' for you."
"Do you think dad is good to you?"
As he said that, he suddenly showed a helpless expression: "I am such a doting father to you, there is nothing I can do about it."
Xie Shen stared at the fat man for a long time.
He searched hard for memories in his mind, and finally looked at the other person and said uncertainly: "Are you Liang Qiuyuan?"
"Huh?"
The fat man showed a puzzled expression. He didn't understand what Xie Shen was doing.
But seeing Xie Shen look at the person next to the fat man again: "You are Hong Chen, right?"
The roommate named Hong Chen looked at Xie Shen with a strange look on his face and said, "Xie Shen, what are you doing? Are you pretending not to know us?"
"Heh."
Although everything in front of him was just a dream, Xie Shen couldn't help but let out a silly laugh after seeing his old friends.
Maybe it's because it's boring.
Seeing that Xie Shen just giggled and said nothing, the two roommates stopped talking nonsense with him.
The two of them each held their mobile phones, and while eating their lunch boxes, they were busy watching short videos on their mobile phones.
Soon, the BGM unique to short videos began to sound one after another in the dormitory
…
Living in a dreamland derived from the "dream" of unspeakable creatures, Xie Shen didn't dare to have any confidence.
After sighing briefly, he turned to thinking about what he should do to leave this world.
Out of habit, the first thing Xie Shen thought of was to use his spiritual consciousness to explore the surrounding environment.
But.
Just when he tried to release his spiritual consciousness in his body, he found that not only did he lose his spiritual consciousness, but even his heavenly cultivation had disappeared without a trace.
So, am I just an ordinary person in the dream?
After realizing this, Xie Shen came to the dormitory balcony again and looked down.
——He thought of committing suicide to force himself to wake up from the dream.
But not long after he had this idea, Xie Shen suddenly began to doubt his own knowledge for no reason:
What if those memories about time travel and cultivating immortality are false, but everything in front of you is real?
What if I have never traveled through time at all?
If he jumped directly from the building like this, would he really fall to his death?
You only have one chance in life. If you die, everything will be lost.
Xie Shen did not dare to treat his life as a child's play.
So driven by the desire to survive, he slowly returned to the dormitory from the balcony.
Before you reach the point of desperation, try to try other methods first.
In the dormitory.
Xie Shen walked to the balcony and looked down as if he was possessed. After a few seconds, he walked back on his own as if he had realized something.
Liang Qiuyuan noticed something was wrong and asked Xie Shen seriously: "Xie Shen, are you okay? Why do I suddenly feel that you are weird?"
Xie Shen didn't say anything, he just sat cross-legged on his bed and silently started the 'Ancient Heaven Swallowing Jue' technique.
Sure enough.
There is no aura or extraordinary power like 'painful emotions' in this world.
This time Xie Shen was completely at his wits end.
"Son, what are you doing?"
Seeing that Xie Shen didn't say a word, he just sat cross-legged on the bed silently.
Liang Qiuyuan was speechless, but also concerned: "You are meditating on the bed, do you want to cultivate immortality?"
In Xie Shen's opinion, Liang Qiuyuan and other roommates were just transformed by indescribable creatures using great supernatural powers.
None of it is true.
Therefore, Xie Shen has always been reluctant to communicate too much with them.
But after seeing Liang Qiuyuan caring about him so much, Xie Shen began to look at him seriously.
He was also very serious and asked Liang Qiuyuan: "Recall, do you have any memories of your childhood in your mind?"
"Think about it carefully, do you really exist?"
In order not to let Liang Qiu go far away, he felt that he was joking.
Xie Shen said, and suddenly added: "I am asking you very seriously now. Please cooperate with me and answer my question."
This.
Although he felt strange in his heart, Liang Qiuyuan finally replied: "About the memories of my childhood."
"It was too early, like in kindergarten. I must not remember it clearly."
"But I still remember what happened in elementary school and junior high school."
"What?" Liang Qiuyuan asked curiously: "Why do you suddenly ask this question? You act like a philosopher."
Xie Shen continued to say to Liang Qiuyuan with a serious face: "Actually, I am now trapped in a dream created by some kind of creature."
"You are all just characters in a dream, transformed by that creature using mana."
"Including your memories and your character."
"Son." After hearing this, Liang Qiuyuan imitated Xie Shen's tone and said: "Actually, I am Qin Shihuang. I was framed by Zhao Gao and trapped in a dream."
"As long as you transfer 100 million to me, I can wake up from my dream."
"When I wake up, I will make you a general." "How about it?"
"Can you give me some money?"
Xie Shen ignored Liang Qiuyuan's teasing and just thought about what he should do to leave the dream world.
Suicide is definitely not an option.
Don't know why.
Xie Shen always had a vague feeling in his heart that the world he lived in was not entirely a dream.
Once he dies in this world, he on the Ark spaceship will most likely die with him.
Even if he has immortality.
Since you are in the dream world, you cannot use the Divine Transformation Stage to practice, nor can you force yourself to wake up by committing suicide.
At that moment, Xie Shen had only one way to go.
In the dormitory.
Xie Shen stood up from the bed and said to Liang Qiuyuan: "Can you help me ask for leave from the counselor?"
"I have something very important and I have to leave for a few days."
Saying that, Xie Shen suddenly changed his words.
"Forget it, forget it, you don't need to ask for leave."
"It's just a dream anyway. Asking for leave is unnecessary."
After saying that, Xie Shen picked up his cell phone and left the dormitory.
Only roommates Liang Qiuyuan and Hong Chen were left, sitting on chairs with confused expressions on their faces.
After thinking for a long time, Liang Qiuyuan said: "What exactly is Xie Shen going to do? Is he really crazy?"
"Oh, ignore him." Hong Chen analyzed from the side: "I guess he went to the Internet cafe to surf the Internet. If nothing else, he will be back before the dormitory closes in the evening."
…
When Xie Shen first arrived at the Tiangong Space Station, he escorted Li Xiu to a military base deep underground.
——According to what Li Xiu said, as a product of military experiments, he grew up in that military base since he was a child.
If Xie Shen remembers correctly, that military base should be in Jiaxing, Zhejiang.
Xie Shen's identity at this time was a student.
Since he had no money, he took the cheap green train for this trip.
Although the speed is very slow, fortunately, the university where Xie Shen is studying is not too far from the destination.
So it took him less than half a day to successfully reach the target city.
Following the memories in his mind, Xie Shen kept searching throughout the city.
It took him two days and two nights to finally find the entrance to the military base where Li Xiu was suspected to be.
This entrance is in an inconspicuous underground parking lot.
In the corner of the parking lot, you can still see an old man, lying on a couch and taking a nap.
This is very interesting:
There are neither public toilets nor any entrances and exits in this corner of the parking lot.
It's summer at this time.
In addition, when Xie Shen came, it happened to be evening.
So there are still quite a lot of mosquitoes in the parking lot.
But the old man was like Taishan, never leaving the corner of the parking lot.
In order to repel mosquitoes, he even lit three sheets of mosquito coils on his side.
Obviously.
This old man is guarding something.
For example, the entrance to an underground military base.
Thinking of this, Xie Shen walked forward directly.
He used words to directly test the uncle: "Uncle, there should be a military base underground here, right?"
On the couch.
Hearing Xie Shen's voice, the old man who was closing his eyes to rest his mind was very reluctant to open his eyes.
He didn't speak, just looked at Xie Shen up and down, and then continued to lie down on the couch and take a nap.
Xie Shen did not give up.
He continued to say to the uncle: "I'm here to see Li Xiu. I have something very important to tell him. Please inform him."
The uncle slapped Xie Shen with a fan and said dissatisfied: "I don't know what you are talking about. I am the security guard here. If you have nothing to do, don't bother me."
Xie Shen is very patient.
He thought to himself again: "Please tell Li Xiu, please tell me that I know information about unspeakable creatures, as well as the tower prison that will appear on the earth in the future, and many, many other important secrets. I know them all. ”
This time the uncle no longer had that careless expression.
After hearing what Xie Shen said, he suddenly sat up from the couch, and his expression became extremely serious.
The uncle said sharply to Xie Shen: "Where are you from? Who asked you to say these words?"
Xie Shen thought for a while and said: "Everything that happened to me may be a bit complicated to say."
"Besides, I feel that with your status, you are not necessarily qualified to know"
"So, maybe you can take me to see Li Xiu now?"
There seems to be listening and monitoring equipment installed in the corner of this parking lot.
Just as Xie Shen was talking to the old man, a familiar voice without any emotion suddenly sounded from the wall.
The voice said calmly: "Uncle Quan, please bring him in."
This was Li Xiu's voice.
After getting Li Xiu's permission, the old man looked Xie Shen up and down again.
After a few seconds.
He jumped into the carriage of a van in front of Xie Shen and said to Xie Shen: "Come in, I will take you to see Li Xiu."
So is the back compartment of this van the entrance to the military base?
After realizing this, Xie Shen couldn't help but ask: "I remember, shouldn't the entrance to the military base be a bunker door?"
"That's the main entrance, and you're not allowed to go there normally." The uncle explained: "There are people coming and going in this parking lot, and they come in and out through the main entrance every day. Hasn't the military base been exposed long ago?"
Reasonable.
Xie Shen said no more and just followed the uncle into a secret door in the carriage.
After walking through the secret door, his eyes suddenly opened up.
Different from the dilapidated scene in Xie Shen's memory - what caught his eyes at this moment was an underground military base with a strong sense of science fiction.
As soon as Xie Shen arrived, he saw two soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms approaching.
Under the leadership of the two men, Xie Shen quickly arrived at a small room that seemed to be an interrogation room.
It didn't take long again.
A middle-aged man wearing a white shirt and a pair of metal glasses pushed open the door and walked into the room.
After Xie Shen saw the middle-aged man's appearance clearly, he felt happy at first.
Then he suddenly realized: "No wonder you were able to develop zirconium metal glasses in such a short time after going to the space station."
"It took a long time, but you have already researched these glasses at this time."
Xie Shen's words successfully aroused Li Xiu's interest.
He pulled up a chair, sat across from Xie Shen, and said expressionlessly: "What do you mean by this, so you are a time traveler? Did you return from the future to the present?"
