"Xiangyu, how do you know? Did you, who was at the bottom of Poyang Lake at that time, participate in your family's sacrificial hall because of some unknown force?" I asked tentatively.
"No, but I have seen the scene of the sacrificial hall," Xiangyu said, turning on his phone and showing me a photo.
The scene in the photo is the image of the cube falling from the sky.
"Xiangyu, where did you get this picture?" I asked doubtfully, thinking that I must have drawn it when, and then I lost that part of the memory.
"That's the Wen family picture." Xiangyu said.
"Picture of the Wen family?" I repeated in a low voice.
"Yes, this picture has been kept by the patriarch of the Wen family. It is said that there is a huge secret hidden in it. But a few years ago, before I went to Stanford, my father quietly asked me to put this picture in the collection.
The picture was photographed, and it was said that if this picture was shown to the person in charge, he would be able to successfully enter the astrolabe research team." Xiangyu said. "At that time, I recognized the woman in the red wedding dress at a glance.
, Between the eyebrows and the eyebrows, there is actually a slight resemblance to you."
"Then have you ever asked your father what kind of secret is hidden in this picture?" I asked curiously.
"Of course I asked, but my father refused to tell me. Because of his face, he has always been reclusive. It is not easy for me to even see him. Therefore, the friendship between our father and daughter is probably only what he gives me.
That's a little bit of blood involvement. Therefore, he didn't say anything, so I didn't ask about it anymore." Xiangyu looked at me and said.
"So, in fact, the sacrificial ceremony I attended at that time really happened thousands of years ago, and this sacrificial ceremony must have certain special characteristics, otherwise your tribe would not use painting.
I recorded it and passed it down from generation to generation." I said to Xiangyu, as if I was talking to myself.
"Zhou Cang," Xiangyu suddenly raised her voice and shouted to me.
"What's the matter?" I was a little confused when she shouted, and I was also shocked.
"In the black sedan of the ghost ship, you must have traveled through time, right?" Xiangyu said with wide eyes.
"Time travel? It's impossible. I always thought it was my hallucination."
"Do you remember? In the waters of Laoye Temple, after I got separated from you, I kept diving down, but in the end I found myself on the water of Poyang Lake, so I always felt that in the waters of Laoye Temple,
It is very likely that there is a distortion of time and space. After hearing what you said just now, I really think that you may have traveled through time and space."
When Xiangyu said this, I suddenly thought that every time I had a hallucination, an astrolabe would appear in that place.
The first time I felt that I was hallucinating or delusional was eight years ago in the ancient temple of Zhuyin on the seaside. Although I didn’t know the existence of the astrolabe at that time, everything I experienced later made me
I vaguely felt that at that time the professor wanted to conduct some kind of experiment with me using the astrolabe.
The second time I had a hallucination was in the secret passage under my grandfather's study. At that time, I crawled out of the secret room, and I obviously felt that the secret passage was not the one I entered in the first place, because it was much longer.
Much darker.
Later, in Xiangyu's description, when they escaped from the ancient temple in Wawushan, they also climbed through a secret passage and saw me in the secret passage.
Therefore, the hallucination I had for the second time was actually very likely that I traveled through the secret passage that Chen Mo, Xiangyu, Zhang Jisheng and others crawled through when they escaped from the ancient temple on Wawu Mountain.
And that time, the astrolabe also appeared, in the hands of his father in the ice coffin in the secret room.
The third time I had a hallucination was in the black sedan chair of the ghost ship. I always thought it was a long dream of mine. But today, when I saw "Pictures of the Wen Family", I suddenly realized that it also happened in real life.
The hallucination that occurred this time was most likely due to the dark red astrolabe in his hand.
If we follow this line of thinking, will the role of the astrolabe be to open a passage that can travel through time and space?
However, this cannot explain why the eight major families, no, the seven major families, hid all the astrolabes.
The role of the astrolabe in the genetic engineering of the Sirians is also not reflected.
"Zhou Cang, what are you thinking about? I've noticed that lately you often lose your mind unconsciously. Are you too tired? Or are you feeling physically uncomfortable?" Xiangyu asked, pushing me.
At this time, I suddenly remembered that all the hallucinations I had had had corresponding situations in real life. Only during the sacrifice at the Zhuyin Ancient Temple, Xiangyu was struck by a thunderstorm and his consciousness was shattered.
An unclear state has emerged. This situation has not yet found a corresponding shadow in real life.
Thinking of this, a chill suddenly appeared on my back.
Could it be that Xiangyu will be hurt next?
Now that I think about it carefully, in fact, every time I go to a place related to the astrology chart, someone around me will always be hurt.
In Wawu Mountain is Wangzhishui, at the bottom of Poyang Lake is Li Zhuochen, and at the bottom of Shentang Bay is Zhang Jisheng.
I didn’t dare to think about it anymore, but from this moment on, without realizing it, I had already planted a belief in my heart, that is, I must not let the hallucinations I had when I was worshiping at the Zhuyin Ancient Temple on the seaside go.
Those things happen.
"Zhou Cang, Zhou Cang," Xiangyu shook me twice more, "Are you okay? Why do you look so ugly? Did you think of something again?"
"It's okay, let's go. Maybe I'm a little hypoglycemic. Let's go have breakfast." I said to Xiangyu while holding my luggage bag.
The two of us walked out of the hospital, rode a shared bicycle, and then found an old-looking shop to sit down and have breakfast together.
"Zhou Cang, I still remember that when we were in college, we often went to the wild for field trips together. At that time, we often sneaked out in the morning to look for more authentic local breakfast snacks. Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, we would have to go to the field in ten years.
It's over." Xiangyu said as he swished the fried egg noodles on the plate and took a sip.
"Yes, I really didn't expect that after so many years, a group of us would still be able to get together and do similar things as before, but the mentality is completely different." I also said with emotion.
"Zhou Cang," Xiangyu suddenly raised her eyes and looked at me. As a single mother and father for more than thirty years, I felt a little embarrassed to be stared at by her. After a while, she slowly said: "
Don't be discouraged, we will definitely be able to find out the truth of all things, no matter good or bad, let these horoscopes end in our generation."
When she said this, my morale seemed to be greatly increased again, and I nodded firmly.
Suddenly, Xiangyu stood up very quickly, and then stared behind me.
"What's wrong?" I stood up and turned around.
The scene in front of me made my heart beat, and I ran across the street.
Under the big banyan tree across the street, the faceless woman was standing there looking at our food stall.
I ignored the cars passing by on the street and rushed over as fast as I could.
Seeing the faceless woman standing indifferently, I actually felt very unsure. If the person opposite was really my mother, then I really didn't know how to face it.
However, just a short distance away, the faceless woman suddenly ducked behind the tree.
I chased him to the tree, but the building was already empty.
It's really strange. She just dodged behind the tree and didn't see where she was running. Why did she disappear out of thin air?
Not convinced, I walked around the big banyan tree and searched the trunk to prevent her from hiding in the crown.
However, in the end, nothing was found.
At this time, Xiangyu also ran over. When she saw my expression, I knew that she had run away again.
"Zhou Cang," Xiang Yu said breathlessly, "she will definitely appear again, let's go."
