Chapter 372 Xiaocao's Reasonable Suspicion and Bold Guess

Looking at the things in the hole, Fang Xiaocao fell into deep self-doubt.

“Did I get the wrong script?”

"I think should not be?"

"Why is it here?"

Fang Xiaocao stood there, muttering to herself.

No-Brain squatted aside, tilting his head and looking curiously at his own princess who had suddenly gone offline.

After a long time, Fang Xiaocao sighed.

As you step into the cave, you will see a statue of a god wearing golden chain mail, a towering crown on his head, lotus silk boots on his feet, a hairy face with a thunder god's mouth, and holding a golden hoop stick.

Fang Xiaocao was caught off guard to see a statue of the Monkey King underground in the vast desert of New Zealand. This made her doubt herself for a moment whether she had got the wrong script.

She had just taken out the Blood Jade Wheel, a personal prop belonging to Zuo Ci, the master of illusion in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, from the sarcophagus in the stone chamber outside the cave.

From the moment he saw the blood jade wheel, Fang Xiaocao had a preconceived notion that this ancient tomb, which was full of weirdness, should be Zuo Ci's tomb. Although he didn't know why Zuo Ci's tomb appeared here, the appearance of a statue of the Monkey King in the tomb was ridiculous.

Wasn’t the image of the Monkey King fabricated by a Ming Dynasty novelist based on the Tang Dynasty’s “A Record of the Western Regions of the Great Tang Dynasty”?
How could it appear in the tomb of a famous alchemist from the late Eastern Han Dynasty?

Could it be that this tomb doesn’t belong to Zuo Ci?
But it was built by someone in the Ming Dynasty?

The person who built the tomb particularly liked Journey to the West written by Wu Cheng'en, so he carved a statue of the Monkey King in the tomb?

Isn’t this a bit too ridiculous?

Looking at the statue of the Monkey King in front of him, Fang Xiaocao was confused and had a feeling of unreality. He couldn't help but wonder if he was really in a real world?
Or maybe I was hypnotized?
Is everything before my eyes an illusion?

As the thought came to his mind, Fang Xiaocao used hypnosis to try to use his mental power to distinguish the truth from falsehood of everything in front of him.

But no matter how many times she tried, the statue of the Monkey King still existed before her.

She also didn't sense any signs of having been attacked by mental force.

At this moment, Fang Xiaocao's scalp felt tingling.

She didn't believe it was real.

It's so destructive!
She would rather believe it was an illusion.

"and many more!"

"Hallucination?"

"Illusion!"

Suddenly, Fang Xiaocao's eyes lit up.

He lowered his head to look at the blood jade wheel in his hand.

"Could this thing be the cause of this?"

Looking into the eyes of Zhong, Fang Xiaocao murmured to herself.

But she didn't feel any energy from the Blood Jade Wheel attacking her!
Instead, holding the blood jade wheel and feeling the faint energy fluctuations emanating from it, she felt very comfortable.

My mental strength is a little more active than usual.

It was as if she was in a constant state of meditation.

Mental strength remains active at all times and grows slowly.

As a master of hypnosis, it was impossible for her to not be able to tell whether she was being attacked or not.

This is not how being attacked should feel.

Fang Xiaocao frowned and shook her head.

The problem should not be on the blood jade wheel.

"What could that be?"

Fang Xiaocao muttered to herself, quickly scanning everything in the cave.

The cave is not big. Apart from the statue of the Monkey King and a stone table, there is only a stone door behind the statue.

There is a pattern of an eye carved on the stone gate.

It was exactly the same as the blood jade wheel in her hand, emitting a faint spiritual radiation.

But before the mental radiation could reach her, it was absorbed by the blood jade wheel in her hand.

Fang Xiaocao felt that the blood jade wheel in her hand was like a magic weapon in a myth. It could not only amplify her mental power output, but also automatically protect her from mental attacks.

Very magical!

But thinking about the Blood Jade Wheel, it was after all carved by the immortal Zuo Ci himself, so Fang Xiaocao didn't find it strange.

The main theme is not understanding, but respect.

After all, China is a great country with thousands of years of civilization heritage. Archaeologists have even discovered the writing of the Yu Dynasty, and a super civilization is almost unearthed in Sanxingdui. It seems that we can understand all the strange people and magical abilities in ancient times.

Even she herself can chat with her future self and has learned hypnosis.

With such a good example before her, Fang Xiaocao didn’t find anything that didn’t go against common sense strange at all.

As for what is not scientific...

Are there not many things in this world that cannot be explained by science?
Didn’t scientific giants like Newton and Einstein start studying theology in their later years?

The end of science is metaphysics, but it is not all groundless.

Wasn’t gunpowder, one of the Four Great Inventions, invented by a group of Taoist priests who were engaged in metaphysics and were making elixirs?

Is this science or metaphysics?
You say it is science, and the ancient people who invented gunpowder through alchemy would be the first to express their dissatisfaction.

He has been studying metaphysics all his life.

They have dedicated their entire lives to the alchemy career that seeks immortality. Why should we use a discipline created by modern people to negate the career that they have pursued all their lives?

There are too many things in the world that cannot be explained by science. Fang Xiaocao feels that using metaphysics to understand them appropriately may bring different gains.

For example, the brainless guy next to her.

Brainless situations can be explained by science, but metaphysics can also be used to explain them!

"and many more?"

"No brains?"

Fang Xiaocao was suddenly stunned.

Fang Xiaocao looked at No-Brain, then raised her head to look at the statue of the Monkey King in front of her.

Covered with hair?

No tail?
A giant monkey that can walk upright?
Although the monkey is like a wild beast, its words and actions are just like those of a human...

Fang Xiaocao suddenly had an extremely absurd idea.

just in case……

Wasn't the character of the Monkey King fictionalized by Wu Cheng'en?
Is it possible that there really was such a person as the Monkey King in the Ming Dynasty, or even in the Tang Dynasty, or even in the earlier Han Dynasty?

Even when Xuanzang was traveling west, he had a disciple or guard by his side who was hairy, monkey-like, and had great martial arts skills.

Then the fact that there is a statue here that looks exactly like the Monkey King can explain it!

If this assumption is true, it doesn't seem strange that Wutou and Cangluan have turned into savages that are neither human nor monkey.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiaocao suddenly felt as if he had suddenly been enlightened, and his thoughts became clear.

All her suspicions were caused by her own preconceived ideas.

Her preconceived ideas made her get stuck in a rut again.

Quack, quack, quack——

At this moment, a series of frog calls came from Fang Xiaocao.

Fang Xiaocao was stunned at first, but then she came to her senses and realized that this was her cell phone message ringtone.

In such a remote place, the only person who could make her phone ring was a hot noodle. Fang Xiaocao immediately took out the phone in the waterproof bag from her pocket.

I unlocked the screen and saw that it was indeed the WeChat message from Danzui Noodles...

My dears, this book is about science fiction and suspense. Here, the book has reached a dividing point. One direction is to go in the direction of science fiction. This direction will focus on the heroine’s discovery of many relics of historical or mythological figures. I use some things in science fiction, such as super civilizations, future people, etc. to write about their existence. The other direction is to maintain the status quo and keep a suspenseful writing style, focusing on fighting and passion. The direction of the story is the same. It’s just a matter of which writing style you prefer when writing. Which style do you prefer? You can comment and tell me.
