Chapter 177 Beyond the Deep Sea

Deep Sea Year in the Old Calendar...

Although Chen Yan has only been in the empire for a short time, he still knows these things - almost everyone in the empire knows that in the past ten years, subtle changes have continued to occur at the top of the empire.

The imperial power was eclipsed by the new rich who suddenly emerged in the industrial era, and the emperor almost became a mascot.

Although the empire is still the same empire, the era when the emperor had political power has passed. That era is called the "Old Calendar" by the informed people to distinguish it from the "New Calendar" in today's industrial age.

The name "Deep Sea Year" comes from the ancient custom of the imperial royal family - the feudal rulers who have passed down the history for a long time will name the year according to the major events of each year.

Chen Yan didn’t know about the major events that happened in the Deep Sea Year, but Vidya Gandhi knew about it, so a new memory emerged in Chen Yan’s head:

In the summer of the Deep Sea Year, the empire's colonial fleet reached a farther part of the world, which was named "The Other Side of the Deep Sea" and had an extremely deep trench.

The reason why the scientific expedition team determined that the "trench is extremely deep" is because the sea water there is almost black——

When there are no schools of fish or large marine life underwater, the composition of the seawater is normal, there is no large-scale eutrophication of the water body, there is no oil leakage from ships, and the clouds have extremely high light transmittance, the seawater is still black——

This shows that the sea there is deep enough.

The existing deep-diving equipment of the scientific expedition team cannot continue to dive when it reaches three thousand meters underwater.

According to the telegram sent back by the scientific expedition team at that time, they discovered an "incredible life form" three thousand meters underwater and needed further observation.

Then, the scientific expedition team lost contact.

The news of the missing scientific expedition team spread like wildfire and appeared in major newspapers and media outlets in the empire in just half a day - this is the reason why Vidya Gandhi has these memories: she has read the reports in those newspapers.

Chen Yan heard someone say that at that time, newspapers and media had not yet been eroded by the entertainment industry. Most of them had the principle of pursuing the truth. The news they published was very conservative and had a high degree of credibility.

Three months after losing contact, the scientific expedition team's ferry docked.

There was no one on board.

According to Vidya Gandhi's memory, the Deep Sea Year was a year about ten years ago.

Ten years ago...the empire had not yet opened immigration customs throughout the territory. It was quite difficult to survive legally within the empire - that is, to obtain a visa, immigrate, and legally enjoy all citizen rights within the empire.

Vidya Gandhi looks like she is only in her twenties now...not more than thirty years old at most, and she probably wasn't that old ten years ago.

Chen Yan "watched" the memory of the "Deep Sea Year" in Vidya Gandhi's head and realized another thing:

When he recalls information about "things" through "seeing things", if there is information related to that thing in the body he is in, he will be able to know it all -

Just like when he saw the contents of the diary, he learned more relevant memories in Vidya Gandhi's head.

Chen Yan was silent for a moment, digesting the information, and then stayed on the phrase "Deep Sea Age" for a few seconds.

The "Deep Sea Age" in the diary is not a phrase made up of short words, but a complete short sentence.

Compared with the "Deep Sea Age" that Nuomiguo once said, the semantic expression is very different based on the order of subject, predicate, and object and the usage of noun, verb, adjective, and preposition.

According to the grammar of the empire, the meaning of "Deep Sea Age" mentioned by Nuomiguo can be translated as:

[The world has fallen into a dark apocalyptic era, like the deep sea where no light can be seen].

According to the grammar of Vidya Gandhi's home language that automatically appeared in Chen Ya's mind, the semantics of "Deep Sea Age" in this diary can be translated as:

[A place of long-lost sleep without knowing the time, a forbidden abode of exiles, an abyss where the bones of the old kings are buried].

After such a comparison, Chen Yan felt that the language of Vidya Gandhi's hometown was a bit strange.

This kind of language will automatically attach a divine context to things. It is obviously a very ordinary description, but it is always related to existences like "gods".

What a weird language...

Judging from the following diary entries, Vidya Gandhi was indeed an ordinary female teacher from a distant country, and had nothing to do with any extraordinary events.

"I never care about scientific expedition teams, I only care about my identity - Connery, that white-skinned pig. In order to get a visa to enter the empire, I stayed with him for so long and tried to please him in every possible way. Now I finally have a

Good results:

As long as I hold my marriage certificate with him and get a 'partner visa' from the customs, I can stay in the empire legally.

If you find another job and work steadily for three years, you will be eligible for naturalization in three years. In the past, the pure land was above, holy Arahant, have you heard my sincere prayer? It is you who is here

Are you protecting me? Have I received good luck from the gods?!

Is the physical pain finally coming to an end?

Tonight I have to deal with that white-skinned pig Connery... How I hope this will be the last night I spend with him."

This is the end of the diary on October 13, the Deep Sea Year of the Old Calendar.

After Chen Yan read it, he felt doubtful.

How could she dare to write such a sensitive thing directly in her diary and place it openly in a pile of junk?

Is it because the vast majority of people in the empire don't know the language?

Chen Yan recalled Vidya Gandhi's unique appearance and name. That unique appearance and name were incompatible with all the ethnic groups he saw after entering the empire - such a person would use the name of his hometown in the empire.

Language should be very safe.

Chen Yan was silent for a moment and continued to look.

"November 21st, Pregnancy Day

Damn it, I'm pregnant with Connery's white-skinned pig's child!

How disgusting!

All my previous contraceptive measures failed, how could this be possible? Did Connery poke holes in those swim bladders?

That damn white-skinned pig!

I must abort this child, must!》

Vidya Gandhi did not write her diary every day, but she would definitely write it when she was emotionally agitated - from the excitement when she landed in the Empire to the resentment after becoming pregnant with Connery's child, both diaries were written in times of great emotion.

Recorded when the amplitude fluctuates.

"January 2, entry day

Connery's sister helped me get an internal recommendation letter, and I was able to work in a missionary school. Even if I was just a clerk in an ordinary office, it was better than being an unemployed vagrant who had to rely on others to make ends meet.

This is one of the few good things that has happened in months.

Another good thing is that the holy Arahant from the Pure Land in the past heard my prayer and helped me get rid of the child.

The pure land of the past is above, and I will shed tears of gratitude!

But the Connelly family didn’t know about this yet. They just thought that Connery, who was mentally retarded, was going to be a father. They celebrated and even helped me get an internal recommendation letter——

I understand that they don’t have any good intentions toward me, but just want the child in my belly to have a mother with a serious job.”
