Chapter 917: Virtue and Art
After returning to the Zhennan Palace, Gu Juan immediately called Thorn over and asked him about the construction of the contact circle, and it was also to verify the doubt that had always existed in his heart, to see if he could get an answer through the contact with the Thorn Master.
Half an hour later, Thorn rushed back from his secret base outside the city, bringing bad news, as well as good news.
The bad news is that the contact circle has been basically set up, but it doesn't seem to be able to be used to deliver messages to the Yunhai Sect.
After some discussion and research, the foreign monks such as Thorn Qiushui and Yu He came to a more disappointing conjecture than the mistake in the construction of the contact circle.
That is in this world, whether it is a living soul or a dead thing, or even a message, it is allowed to enter and not leave, just like some kind of ancient spirit beast named Pixiu, as long as it eats something in its stomach, it is impossible to spit out a single penny.
After listening to this, Gu Juan was also silent for a long time.
This piece doesn't seem to be much different from the Earth, but is it really a sphere in the ordinary sense?
Ever since he learned some of the secrets about the Lord of the Cave Heaven and the Realm of the Cave Heaven, some of the views he had always believed in had been greatly shaken, and he was even in danger of collapsing and shattering.
He has already thrown away a lot of the knowledge and experience of the previous plane, so now it is finally the turn of astronomy and cosmology?
In order to verify whether the earth is a ball or not, Gu Juan resolutely embarked on the road of "traveling around the world" without showing any fear or hesitation.
Now that a long time has passed, I don't know where she has gone, whether she can really circle the ball and return to the original point, and solve the puzzle that he has been thinking about since the beginning of the crossing.
Or is it the kind of person who lost his life due to various accidents halfway through, or even fell directly to the end of the earth, and couldn't even find his bones......
And it wasn't until he made great progress in cultivation and his strength rose sharply that he really understood what the sentence that his aunt once said was that the clouds are deep and the heights are cold, what kind of meaning it represents.
Because he also thought about rising to an extremely high place and looking down at the earth, in order to observe and find the most direct evidence that the earth is a ball, but every time he reaches a certain height, it is like touching an invisible barrier, and the pressure on his body will suddenly multiply, and it will increase exponentially.
If you continue to go up regardless of it, you will suddenly fall into a great danger of being blinded by your senses, losing control of your body, and losing your true spirit.
Neither he nor the Red Clothes could hold out for long, so they had to retreat under the barrier, so they needed to recuperate for a long time before they could recover from that weakness.
He also asked Ji Yu about this situation, and he had also consulted the remnants of the kara, but he did not get an answer that satisfied him.
It's a pity that the Northland Wolf God is not his dog, otherwise with the knowledge of this old wolf, maybe he can really make a more reasonable explanation for this.
Gu Juan drank the tea in one gulp, and it was not until he drank the whole pot of tea that he collected his thoughts from Piaofei, raised his eyes to look at the thorns on the chair below and sat down, and coughed lightly, "I already know the bad news, so what is the good news, hurry up and say it to make me happy." ”
Thorn slowly exhaled a cloudy breath and said, "Back to the Lord, my subordinates received a message from the same door the day before yesterday, but it may be that because of the distance, the news is incomplete, and it is impossible to accurately know where they came and how many people they came. ”
"Oh, that's good news. ”
Gu Juan sat up straight all of a sudden, rubbed the armrest of the smooth and delicate wooden chair and said with a smile, "The contact circle can't take effect, it's the same if they come over and ask in person, Thorns, you will focus on the search for fellow monks later, whether it is a person or a thing, I will support it." ”
Thorn was silent for a long time, peeked at Gu Ju's face, and then carefully said after considering the words, "There is another thing that my subordinates don't know whether to talk about or not. ”
Gu Juan was obviously in a good mood at this time, "For the real people ourselves, the principle we have always adhered to is to help relatives and not help, unless people are too biased, so if you say anything directly, let's find a way to solve it together, don't hide it." ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly showed a slightly understanding smile, "Could it be that you have a crush on the girl of a prince and nobleman in the city, and want me to be a matchmaker?"
Thorn opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, "This, subordinate, this ......"
"Huh...... Are you still embarrassed?"
Gu Juan laughed, waved his hand quite magnificently and said, "As the saying goes, Lang is a concubine, dry wood is a fire, which girl does not have spring, which teenager does not estrus, although your age is indeed a little older than that of a young man, but men, young people have the momentum of youth, and old age also has the flavor of old age, so you can't generalize......"
"Hey, thorn man, aren't you still a chick!"
"No, no, no, the Lord has misunderstood, and his subordinates are bent on seeking the Tao, and they have no such intention for men and women, and they really have no idea at all. ”
Gu Juan frowned slightly, "Work is work, life is life, both aspects must be taken into account, you can't take care of one or the other, as the so-called style and style bloom, virtue and art should be both Xin...... But since this is your own choice, I don't want to interfere too much, so just follow your own ideas. ”
"Thank you for your understanding. Thorn stood up and saluted, "If there is nothing else to do with the Lord, then the subordinates will retire first." ”
"Don't worry. ”
Gu Juan leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and said slowly, "Don't you have something to tell me, since it's not a matter of men and women, then it must be something else, or do you have nothing to say to me except for that idea between men and women?"
At this time, Thorn's mind was like a mess of paste, and when he heard this, he was stunned for a moment before he suddenly said, "My subordinates have been busy with the construction of the magic circle recently, and I had a long talk with the Lord just now, and I almost forgot what I wanted to say." ”
"What the subordinates really want to say is ......"
He exhaled a long breath of turbidity, but his voice suddenly lowered, "The Yunhai Sect, the sect where the subordinate sect is located, is considered to be the top five major sects in the realm, so the disciples will inevitably have some eyes above the top and be arrogant. ”
"And in their eyes, they have always thought that this heaven and earth is a blessed land that has just begun the revival of the spirit element and the evolution of living beings, and there will be no monks who can stand at the same level as them, so before they really reverse their inherent impression, they will inevitably show a proud attitude of being high and looking down on people......
Gu Juan waved his hand, interrupted Thorn's words, nodded slightly, and said, "I roughly understand what you mean, don't worry, a gentle and kind person like me will not generally do it for no reason, unless he can't help ......it."
"What's more, they are still in the same relationship with you, even if I don't give them face, at least I have to give you enough face, that is, unless they want to kill me, this king will try to ensure their safety. ”
"My subordinates have thanked the Lord for his grace. Thorn bowed deeply, as if he had let go of the burden that had been hanging on his heart, and the whole person seemed to be much more relaxed and lively.
