In the middle of the night, the thunder and lightning outside the window tore the sky, silver and purple electric snakes occasionally appeared scales and teeth in the dark clouds, and it rained non-stop.
The young man sat in front of the window watching the rain with his face in his hands, knowing that he would not be able to go home until early morning.
The light in the ancient mirror palace cannot be said to be weak, but it cannot illuminate the vast sea of books. I don’t know how many huge dark bookshelves lined up all the books that Da Xie had collected in the past 120 years. Here you can find the scale claws of the supreme secret art of Chenyue Palace, you can also find important documents of the Kuafu family on Tianchi Mountain, and even countless versions of the legends of divine creation before the birth of ancient humans.
Wearing a black robe with stars embroidered with silver thread on the back, the old man is climbing to a high place on a wall of books with the help of a mechanism, carefully searching for the ancient books he needs. Usually, the ancient books studied by these astrologers are different from anyone else, and only they can use the occasional truths in these ancient books to deduce the changes in the starry sky from ancient times to the present.
“Sigh, that Jiuzhou Misty Record should be here.” The astrologer sighed in a low voice.
“Teacher,” the boy leaned against the wall of books, “What was it like in the beginning?”
“In the beginning? In the beginning, there was no earth, no sky, no stars and no gods. The universe was a boundless chaos.”
“I’m not talking about the origin of creation,” the boy said, “I’m talking about the changes in our land.”
“Oh, the vicissitudes of the sea, the changes are unpredictable, the past races have been buried under the mountains and rivers, or they have sailed to other lands outside the Yinghai Sea, in ancient times there were continents rising from the bottom of the sea, and majestic mountains sank into the water , “The astrologer smiled freely, “History has buried a culture more brilliant than ours.”
“Alas,” the boy had to endure the teacher’s habit of talking nonsense for a long time, so he could only sigh by himself, and was about to leave.
“Hehe, I still want to ask about the founding history of the Alliance in Troubled Times, right?” Some things. But I can’t guarantee whether it’s true or not. Only those who have experienced that change can know the whole picture of history, right?”
“How the **** did it start?”
Thinking, the astrologer raised a finger.
Slowly, he erected another one.
When the young man looked at him in confusion, the astrologer suddenly raised five fingers tremblingly!
With a cough, the old astrologer supported the book wall behind him. For a nearly hundred-year-old man, Night Breeze was indeed too cold. The boy hastily closed the window. The astrologer stroked his chest.
“Teacher, you started to use one finger to say that the world started from one, and then that duality was born, but what does five represent?” The boy looked at the teacher in confusion.
The astrologer tapped the top of the boy’s head with the ancient book in his hand, and smiled: “So he is a fool.”
“In the beginning,” the astrologer weighed his words, “maybe it started with one person, but we can also be said to be two, and then I wanted to cough, so I opened my hands to help something next to me… “
The old astrologer looked at the rain falling all over the sky outside the window, and his thoughts entered the vague past: “Well, let’s start this story with the first person. When he walked into that piece of history, he was still a Innocent child.”
