Chapter 229 String Song Returns (2)
The door of the room was pushed open with a "clang" and a thin man in his fifties appeared at the door. Lin Jingbian and Jiang Hengyan immediately stood silent and shouted respectfully: "Master."
Chen Changshan ignored them. In the deep eyes of the father and son, who were extremely similar, his eyes were as sharp as snow, staring at Chen Xiansong.
Chen Xiansong's mind was filled with the complete memories and emotions of the two people, and his heart was overwhelming and shocked. Suddenly, he saw the living Chen Changshan. Chen Xiansong was delayed for a moment, then stood up, strode over, and hugged his father with all his strength.
Chen Changshan was stunned, and his body suddenly became stiff. Then he slowly raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "It's good to come back."
Chen Xiansong's eyes were slightly red and let go of him. It was a very strange feeling. He seemed to have not seen his father for more than ten years. In his memory, every scene of training, eating alone, and living alone seemed to be vivid in his mind. But this body had not seen his father for only two days. He even remembered that his father drank fish soup the night before yesterday.
No, the one in front of me is the father who is the gatekeeper of the space. The father of the demon-catching master will never come back. He regards them as one person. But they seem to be just one person, including those ever-cold eyes and the seriously pursed lips. But this one is much older than he remembers.
Chen Changshan said: "You two go out first."
Lin Jingbian and Jiang Hengyan immediately retreated honestly and brought them to the door.
Chen Xiansong glanced at his father's calm face and remembered the words he said just now, "Just be back."
Chen Changshan also glanced at Chen Xiansong: "Sit down and say."
The father and son sat down against each other, just like the memories of Chen Xiansong's world. Every time, there was a moment of silence.
There seemed to be some emotion surging in Chen Changshan's eyes, but he quickly suppressed it and stared at Chen Xiansong and asked, "How do you feel?"
Chen Xiansong realized that his father was asking about himself in this world. After a little consideration, he seemed to be very accustomed to the natural way of Chen Xiansong, and replied: "What's going on? Jingbian said that it only took two days here, but I clearly remember that I had lived in that world for twenty-nine years. Why? Why did I go to that world for what I did?"
Chen Changshan's eyes fluctuated slightly, but his expression was as calm as before, and he replied, "It was me who asked you to go to that half-star."
The word "half-star" is like a needle, gently tingling Chen Xiansong's nerves. He knew that this half-star was not the other half-star. But he still couldn't control his thoughts of Lu Weizhen. When he was seriously injured and dying, she was heartbroken and stupid, and seemed to follow him. But he didn't know what was going on now?
Chen Xiansong suppressed his anxiety and dull pain in his heart, and he had to figure out the situation first.
That half star.
When his father mentioned this term, more memories related to that half-star came in Chen Xiansong's mind.
He remembered that as a gatekeeper, he knew some secrets since he was a child. He knew that in the universe they could not see, there was another earth, which was the "half-star".
How far is that earth from them?
It is so far away that it cannot be reached in ten lifetimes with the existing technology of the Earthlings.
How close is it?
The distance that is so close that it is only one atom, it almost overlaps on their space, within reach.
Whether it is parallel space, copy planet, or shadow space. In short, half-star and the earth exist together.
The gatekeeper of the Chen family, since a thousand years ago, took unknown mysterious responsibilities from the "gods" they followed, to guard the passage between the two worlds and ensure that the two worlds never intersect and do not interfere with each other.
The heir education that Chen Xiansong received since childhood told him that it was a broken and dangerous half-star. They only had three continents, and their resources were far less than those of this planet, but they had superpowers that people on this planet did not have. Once one day, the passage between the two worlds was opened, the monsters and monsters on the half-star would inevitably come greedily and cruelly to plunder the resources of this healthy and intact planet. In that way, the disaster of destruction would come.
Therefore, the Chen family has been passed down from generation to generation, offering secret weapons left by ancient gods, guarding this place silently. So far, there has been no one and a half-stars who have ever arrived in this world.
In the eyes of the gatekeepers, the one they live in is the real earth.
That one should not exist, incomplete, evil, and inferior fake earth.
But now, when these concepts poured into Chen Xiansong's mind, his brows were already tightly furrowed.
"You spent not twenty-nine years in that half star, but twenty-six years. Two days ago, I used a quantum transmitter to transmit your consciousness to the time when Chen Xiansong was three years old. He was born an idiot. So I asked you to go to that world to experience and understand everything about them so that you can better guard against them and do your duty. Now, Chen Xiansong's body has completely died, and your experience has ended, and it's all over." Chen Changshan said.
The amount of information about these words was too large, and Chen Xiansong was silent.
He remembered his parents - parents in that world said that before he was three years old, he was always stupid and had no opening of his orifices. But later he was smarter than ordinary people. Everyone just thought that he had to eat something better than his peers.
I also remembered the quantum transmission instrument that my father mentioned was one of the weapons left to Chen by the "god" a thousand years ago. Although it cannot be like a wormhole, it can directly establish a channel between the two worlds so that people can pass through, but it can transmit data. Human consciousness is also a kind of data, but it is more complex and huge.
So, in that world, at the critical moment of death, the father transmitted his consciousness back? This is the truth that he was able to resurrect from the dead, because his original body was here.
But... are all those twenty-six years just a training session?
Why can't he remember this incident at all, how he was transmitted there under what circumstances? Only this memory is blank, why?
Chen Xiansong looked up at Chen Changshan, but he had already stood up and said, "Since you have come back, don't think about it anymore, have a good rest, and have dinner with everyone later."
Chen Xiansong grabbed his arm.
Chen Changshan turned his head and looked at him with a little cold look.
Chen Xiansong was unmoved: "Dad, I have to go back, right away."
"Go back? Where to go?"
"The half-star you mentioned is war there, and everyone is fighting hard, and I can't get out at this time." He stopped and said, "And, I already have a lover there, and I can't leave my woman there."
Chen Changshan waved his hand away, grabbed the mirror on the table, smashed it to the ground with a "splash", and shouted: "You have a lover there? In that half a star? Their war has nothing to do with you? They'd better be destroyed by the war!"
He grabbed Chen Xiansong's collar, and his forehead veins swelled up, staring at his son: "Did you forget? Forgot whose son you are? Forgot your own responsibilities? For generations of our Chen family, we must guard this door and make it never open. As a result, now you tell me, you want to go back to live in that world? With a group of half-star people? And marry a half-star woman? What's next? In the next step, do you still have to open this door for them, lead them to this world, and completely destroy this world by them? You have forgotten who you are! Chen Xiansong, you have forgotten who you are!"
Chen Xiansong's hanging hands clenched into fists, and the muscles on his face moved gently.
"I never forgot who I am. Now I know more than in the past twenty-nine years, who I am."
Chen Changshan pushed him away and said, "Don't make me angry anymore. You didn't have such courage before! No matter what you thought, it would be impossible to go to that world again. Don't you remember that the body has died so much that it cannot die anymore. Now it is probably rotten! Consciousness cannot exist independently of the body. If you have to transmit yourself back to be a dead person, I won't stop you."
Chen Xiansong didn't say anything, as if he was stumped.
Chen Changshan turned around and walked out. As soon as he arrived at the door, the person behind him suddenly spoke again: "Dad, since you know my physical condition in that world, have you brought back some precious magic weapons, that is, some advanced civilized weapons that I carried on at that time?"
"No."
"If there is no, there is no." Chen Xiansong said slowly, "That body is dead, without magical tools, and there is no way. Just find a suitable body and transmit my consciousness."
Chen Changshan didn't move or look back, and he said, "So you have to be a person in that world no matter what?"
Chen Xiansong replied: "It doesn't matter who you are. Have you ever thought that saving them means protecting us?"
