Blessings to the beautiful stars

Perhaps, the clear self-awareness among individual creatures is the foundation of most societies that can enter the sea of ​​stars.

The method of testing whether living beings have self-knowledge is also very simple, just stick a little dirt on the places they can't see, and let them look in the mirror;

Those who can accurately remove the dirt on their bodies through the reflection in the mirror can be considered to have the ability to recognize themselves.

This is much more difficult than imagined, even for humans.

When a person is used to putting on makeup and accidentally sees his bare face; or when he is used to looking at the upside-down mirror and one day sees himself in the photo by accident; or when he works at a desk for too long day and night, he accidentally sees his rough and tired face Time.

Strangeness will first occupy people's minds, and at this time, familiar features are needed to identify themselves; but if these features are also forgotten, there is a high probability that people will not recognize themselves without knowing it.

"feature".

The face is one of the most obvious characteristics of human beings, and there are only a lot of things on it; "charm" connects the reproduction of human beings, and the characteristics bear the "credit" of human beings...

Perhaps, the cornerstone at the bottom of human society is these sheets of protein.

Zuo Wu originally thought that the human skin mask on Wo Jinre's face was a little "heart" specially prepared by him in order to get close to him and increase the probability of persuasion.

But not right.

The feel of fingers rubbing against it, the fit of fluff and fingerprints, and the flakes of skin being gently brushed off, everything is too realistic.

More importantly, when Zuo Wu touched the mask, a trace of disgust flashed in Zuo Wu's heart that was unique to and completely familiar with when He Xi was martyred face to face.

Because of the blessing of weaving, pure-blooded humans will have this kind of disgust for each other; it's just that Zuo Wu has never seen a pure-blooded human corpse, and he has never thought about it in this direction before.

Therefore, the material of a mask that can make you feel disgusted is likely to be real human skin.

But the pure-blooded human beings are almost extinct, and there will be no next generation born with the blessing of weaving; wherever they go, they are living legends.

Where did Woking's human skin mask come from?
Zuo Wu took off the human skin mask from Wo Jinre's face, and looked at Dunzi and Xiao Hui again.

Dutzi squatted down, took a few pictures of Wojinre with his vision, and used the relationship he had accumulated over time to compare his identity; creation, throw the mask into it for analysis.

Full of tacit understanding.

Zuo Wu exhaled, and "slapped" two slaps to wake up Wo Jinre, who was pretending to be dizzy, this time there was really a look of interest on his face:

"Mr. Wokinger, you are safe."

Woking fever is a mollusc creature, its snail-like eyes lost the cover of the mask, so fragile, now they can only get into the face, protruding slightly:
"Your Majesty, as the emperor of a country, how can you attack civilians in the street?"

Zuo Wu shrugged: "I'm off work, so I'm not considered emperor."

"Can the emperor get off work too?" Wo Jinnuo poked his eyes out a little more.

"I said I can."

"No matter how you look at it, it should be standard working hours."

"As the emperor, I can't even decide when I leave work?"

Wo Jinre was silent, opened his mouth slowly, and pulled out some sticky silk threads, which made Zuo Wu feel like poking: "...well, Your Excellency Zuo Wu, you attack... what do you want me to do? advice?"

Originally, he wanted to ask Wo Jinre how he got out of the galaxy, but now Zuo Wu is more interested in his mask: "Your mask, tell me what it is."

"Ordinary decorations."

"Don't lie to me."

"Your Excellency Zuo Wu, I said during the interview that I would never lie."

Zuo Wu grinned: "You can only hide some things, right?"

Wo Jinnuo didn't make a sound, expressing his acquiescence; the small eyes were still hidden in his face, shining with the light of intending to fight to the end.

Zuo Wu shook his head, thinking about whether a creature like him has a mature brain, and whether there is much difference between retrieving memory and human beings.

at this time.

Xiao Hui got the result first, took out the human skin mask from the analysis creation, and threw it back into Zuo Wu's hand:
"Hmm, it's indeed human skin, and there is still some woven blessing left; but it's not very fresh, it's estimated that it has been peeled off for 800 years."

Seven 800 years?Zuo Wu rubbed the mask. People seven or eight hundred years ago should have been turned into dry bones and dust, but the owner of the mask has preserved his face in this form until today.

Zuo Wu looked at Dutzi again, only to see that the bald AI's face was a little flushed, in her expectation, she should be able to reach a conclusion with Xiao Hui, but she shouldn't be so far behind.

It's embarrassing.

Fortunately, she didn't lose too many chains in the relationship she operated. Duzi's eyes lit up, he clasped his hands, and forced a grin on Wo Jinre to cover up his embarrassment:
"Wojinre, okay, it turns out that you have conspired against others for a long time."

"If doing everything to fulfill one's dream is considered a conspiracy, then I have indeed planned it for a long time."

"Playing stupid again, you soft creatures have no brains, but the skill of playing stupid is superb,"

Duzi put his hands together and squinted his eyes: "Wokingre, are you from the civilization that currently occupies the earth?"

The birth of Woking Fever is the civilization that currently occupies the earth?
It should be known that human beings have not completed the unification of the entire planet before stepping out of the earth and into the sea of ​​stars; leaving means splitting up, and even the Dilian is the only one left among the countless split strands.

The earth has long been out of human control during this process; until Dilian has established a firm foothold in the sea of ​​stars, when looking back at history, it is impossible to understand what kind of years the earth has spent in these thousand years.

In the years when pure-blooded humans still ruled the Dilian, retrieving the Dilian was also the "correct mission" of the entire regime.

It's a pity that this momentum didn't last long. The pure-blooded humans hated each other, causing them to part ways and live on different planets.

No one remembers the right mission anymore, only the deep loathing is etched in his heart.

The earth, once filled with tens of billions of human beings in its heyday, has also become a stinky garbage dump in the hearts of pure-blooded human beings, and has been deliberately forgotten.

It's just that when they realized that they were about to become extinct, did the last pure-blooded humans see the earth as a mysterious, beautiful and memorable place.

Maybe there is, but it's a pity that there is no way to recover.

As for Zuo Wu, he has no memory of the earth, and even the idea of ​​looking for the earth has only recently been ignited. He thought it should be far away from him, but he did not expect to be connected so soon. .

Zuo Wu raised his hand, slowly tightening the human skin mask in his hand.After all, the blessing of weaving clothes has shown its power, and Wojinre is actually such a key.

Could it be that the so-called "event" he said was able to leave the galaxy was also an opportunity brought about by the luck bestowed by the loom?

Wo Jinre remained silent, not intending to respond to Dutzi's scrutiny, but turned his head, looked at Zuo Wu, and only answered Zuo Wu's question about the mask:
"It's just a gadget inherited from the ancestors, not worth mentioning."

Zuo Wu grinned: "Oh? So your civilization has passed down many such human skin masks?"

"...It's not such a popular thing. My product looks quite good."

"So it's an antique? Why do you say it's an ordinary decoration?"

Wo Jinre's eyes poked out, and the eye rods were covered with wet mucus:
"Isn't it a decoration? My face as a soft-bodied creature sometimes makes some flesh-and-blood creatures like you feel uncomfortable; just like we feel that there are foreign objects called bones in your flesh-and-blood creatures, it is very disgusting;"

"During previous job interviews, I have lost some opportunities due to similar mistakes. I just don't want to repeat the mistakes of the past."

"...Of course, there is also the purpose of using the mask as a talisman. It is said that it can improve the luck of the person who wears it. Of course, it's just for a lottery. This kind of effect is just an illusory legend in my hometown."

This is true.

Although the mask is real human skin, judging from Zuo Wu's slight dislike for it, the blessing of the woven cloth has been diluted a lot on it.

Also, the luck of the weaving will only protect humans; the good luck that is good for the mask does not necessarily make the wearer happy.

Huh?So it is a matter of good luck for the human skin mask that the mask falls into his hands?Could it be that Wojinre's previous interviews were unfavorable, and there is also a reason why this mask does not want to be obtained by other regimes?

Zuo Wu thought for a while, then threw the mask back into Wo Jinre's hand:
"Woking fever, do you know what time I start working?"

Wo Jingre was silent for a moment: "When you say you go to work, you go to work."

"Yes, so don't expect me to pick up any etiquette, morality, or any treaty about preferential treatment of prisoners,"

Zuo Wu grinned:

"It's just that benevolence comes first and peace is the most important thing, and I don't want to be a tyrant who is too cruel; next, I will ask you to answer, and don't hide anything anymore;"

"Otherwise I won't put it back in after I take your brain out and examine it later."

Wojin hot opened his mouth:
"In the end, I still have to dissect my brain? Oh, we mollusk creatures don't have brains at all...Okay, I understand, sir, just ask."

Zuo Wu nodded: "How much do you know about the earth?"

"I don't know how much, the earth is located at the edge of the Milky Way, and the regime I come from is also located in the edge area. It is very barren, and I can only hear about it."

"This mask is the same. It was brought back from the earth by my ancestors a long time ago, and it went around and passed to me at last;"

Woking answered honestly, he didn't even insist on his concealment, but poured out what he knew:

"As for me, after getting the population, I can set off from the earth to go beyond the galaxy, because the earth is in my hometown. It should be much more convenient for me to go there."

Ancestral?
So it seems that Woking fever doesn't know what happened to the earth, and who peeled a human's face and finally made such a mask.

Zuo Wu shook his head: "Then you said, what is the opportunity to go beyond the Milky Way?"

Wo Jinre was silent for a moment, looked at Zuo Wu, then at the two small but imposing women behind him, and sighed softly:

"It's very simple. I think that in the next time, there will be beings from outside the galaxy visiting our world."

Something beyond the galaxy?
Zuo Wu frowned: "When you say 'beyond the galaxy', do you mean the universe outside the galaxy, or the parallel world?"

"Your Excellency, you asked a very strange question, which naturally refers to the cosmic space beyond the Milky Way,"

Woking was puzzled: "There are parallel worlds? Isn't this an unproven theory?"

Xiao Hui listened, coughed lightly behind Zuo Wu, and sent a message:
"Hmm, Your Majesty, things about Renlian and parallel worlds seem to be commonplace to us; but to you who are a little backward in the galaxy, they are still very strange things."

Zuo Wu nodded, putting away his doubts, and not thinking about too complicated things for the time being: "Then how do you know that there are people who are about to visit our galaxy?"

Wo Jinre glanced at the mask in Zuo Wu's hand, and whispered:
"I'm ashamed to say that I have a lot of money in my hometown; I have collected countless masks like this, and it's only my family. Knowing that masks can give people good luck is not empty talk."

"And being able to affect good luck is equivalent to controlling the probability!"

"When people walk on flat ground with their eyes blindfolded, they will always be unable to walk in a straight line because they cannot visually correct the left and right strides; but who knows that the road walked by blindfolded will not be in the correct direction?"

"My family has studied such masks for several generations, and found that the good luck that different masks can affect is different, perhaps it has something to do with the spiritual energy field affected by the obsession in front of the owner;"

"And the different good fortunes of different masks can be superimposed and affect each other! We are still blindfolded explorers looking for the right way in the wilderness, but these masks are like invisible hands guiding us in the dark!"

"Through the superposition and matching of different masks, I can indicate to these masks that I want to achieve such an effect; and this luck can guide me to find the right destination!"

"I asked these masks, what is the opportunity to get out of the galaxy, and they answered me, that is, there will be entities from outside the galaxy visiting our galaxy in the future!"

Zuo Wu nodded: "So you think, since those visitors from outside the galaxy can come here, they must have a way to leave?"

"Isn't this obvious? If you can come, you can definitely leave; our galaxy is trapped in this galaxy and cannot leave, but those visitors have a way to leave! There must be!"

"Then how can you guarantee that you will be able to convince those visitors from outside the galaxy to help you leave?"

"There is no need to persuade, as long as the visitors from outside the galaxy really come, then everything has been revealed and destined;"

Woking heat inhalation:
"Our ancestors were all trapped in the planet, but because of the potential to enter the star sea, we have really gone farther! Those visitors from outside the galaxy are not the same, they can travel outside the galaxy Traveling, how can it be possible to stay in the middle of the Milky Way?!"

"They will leave the galaxy one day, and so will we. We also have the potential to do so!"
