Section 10 Ceremony 1
Zhang Cheng first put all the cards in place, and then summoned Xiao Huihui. Although he knew it was safe here, there was something wrong. After holding Xiao Huihui in his hand, he went to open the door.
There is a courier at the door.
Zhang Cheng was a little confused. He did have been shopping online recently and bought a lot of things. But this is obviously wrong. First of all, this is a courier company that Zhang Cheng has never heard of, and secondly, the delivery time is completely wrong. He just woke up. He picked up his phone and glanced at it. It was 7:30 in the morning. How could a courier company come to his door at this time?
But you are confused and will not affect the courier's work. The other party took out the order, the name, address and phone number on it. It's just that this thing... this thing is transnational mail!
"Brother, why are the goods delivered to your door at this time? I didn't have time to brush my teeth. And... I don't have any shopping overseas!"
"Ha, this was specially requested by the customer." The courier replied. But he obviously knew so much.
What's going on? But Zhang Cheng had to sign for it first. When he left the courier, he was even more surprised to unpack the package. The one who came here was a mobile phone.
It's hard to say if you want to say something like glass jewelry pearl necklaces, after all, I bought too many. But he wouldn't get it wrong. And this phone...
The entire phone is clean and the brand logo is not visible. And this style and this style... Although Zhang Cheng is the kind of person who is not particularly sensitive to electronic products, he also knows that this thing is not a popular model on the market. Not to mention that this thing does not even have a brand. No, it is not just a brand. This thing is a whole seal, except for the charging port, there is not even a card slot for the card. All-in-one machine?
When he was holding the phone and couldn't figure it out for a while, he saw his phone suddenly ringing. He opened the phone and saw a message on the chat software. It was sent by the little girl.
"Brother Zhang Cheng, have you received my beloved wife's gift?"
Well, you know without asking. This phone was sent by the little girl. Zhang Cheng felt angry and funny, and reached out to reply on the chat software. "Do you think I don't have a phone?"
After replying, I remembered that the little girl should still be sleeping at the moment. In other words, it is timely sending? Common chat software does not provide this function, but Zhang Cheng did hear that it can be used to implement timely sending or something through some plug-ins.
This time, on the one hand, he finished reading the Book of Master Lu, and on the other hand, he went through the entire time travel process, "feeling" from beginning to end. In this way, he completely understood a lot of things. Some of them could only be speculated before, but now they can be sure.
For example, there is a problem with this "sleep travel", that is, the world is not synchronized. For example, the Republic and the United States are separated by 12 hours. Zhang Cheng is 7:30 in the morning, and the little girl should be 7:30 in the evening. Zhang Cheng woke up at this moment, and the little girl should have just fallen asleep, and she would not wake up after almost 12 hours. However, in another world, the two people woke up at the same time and fell asleep at the same time.
Zhang Cheng had previously guessed that this was the embodiment of the divine power of the Lord of the Plane. But now he understood Gaia's routine operations. Gaia did collect the souls of the time travelers from the earth one by one. All souls were first "temporarily stored" somewhere, and when the world was gathered together, they were thrown into another world. Then Gaia stopped her own operation and "paused for the full time."
Scientists have said that time is just an illusion for people. In a world, all matter movements are suspended, that is, time paused. All matter movements accelerate, that is equal to the acceleration of time passing. This is unimaginable for humans, but it is a very simple thing for the Lord of the Plane. Zhang Cheng believes that the Lord of the Plane may be able to reverse the original path of material movement...that is, time flows back.
I even feel this way... In fact, time pauses or something is a normal thing for the Lord of the Plane. It is as simple and natural as human breathing.
"This phone is special." The little girl's message appeared again. If you weren't sure that the little girl was still unable to wake up in a supernatural sleep, Zhang Cheng would almost feel that the other party was online. "It is the super invincible Piliqiang satellite phone that I researched and designed by myself. It is waterproof, electricity and radiation-proof, and it does not require a card to decode the satellite signal... In short, with it, you will no longer be worried about not being able to contact me! As long as you are on the earth, even at the top of Mount Everest, you can contact me."
"Okay, okay, I understand. Thank you for your gift." Zhang Cheng replied, and then turned off the chat software.
Not to mention anything else for the time being, wash your face and brush your teeth and order breakfast and takeout, and feed Xiao Huihui. When everything is done, he sat down and turned on the computer while checking the mobile phone sent by the little girl. The plane master has no limits of magic power, but Zhang Cheng has to solve his own affairs as a mortal. The Wizard may not be a mortal... but the card is very clear, Zhang Cheng has become an ordinary human.
Although it was made by the little girl himself... but it doesn't sound like it. Zhang Cheng thinks that this phone should be customized. The little girl is doing very well now. Moreover, because of her own protection, the little girl is obviously safe in another world. Similar to Lao Liu, but in fact the situation is much better than Lao Liu. So she seems to be having a lot of fun?
Is it because of that money? The funds of the gangster that Zhang Cheng killed before were all in the hands of the little girl. However, this money has hidden dangers... Zhang Cheng is becoming more and more confident that he will not lack money with supernatural abilities. It is more important than money to be low-key. Now that he is increasingly in control of the power of the brigade master, he has found that he does not need to care about currency at all.
He casually drew a card and took out a large piece of dog-headed gold from it. Yes, dog-headed gold, also called horse-hoofed gold. It is a natural-produced gold with impure texture, large grains and irregular shape. Because of its rarity, its value is very high on earth than ordinary gold. Zhang Cheng felt that the piece in his hand was at least 3 or 5 kilograms, and it would be at least hundreds of thousands of dollars for money. This thing was obtained by him in another world without any effort.
In fact, if you take out the scrolls, wands, or magic items with supernatural powers, you can't tell how much it is. For example, the bronze pot that can use the water condensation technique many times a day. If that thing is auctioned on Earth, God knows how much it can be sold. At least hundreds of millions of knives will not be a problem.
And it is okay even if you don’t conduct plane transactions. In fact, Zhang Cheng understood that it is not difficult to make money using supernatural abilities... and even the chance of being exposed is very small.
"Zhang Cheng." Zhang Cheng put the gold on the computer desk, but saw the little bear coming out at some point.
"What?" Zhang Cheng remembered what Xiaoxiong said. After such a long wait, Xiaoxiong was convinced that the world was basically harmless.
"Look at this." said the little bear.
Only then did Zhang Cheng realize that under Xiaoxiong's control, the computer had switched to a certain online live video. In fact, it cannot be called "switching". This is a web page collected by Zhang Cheng, and it can be opened at a glance.
As mentioned earlier, Zhang Cheng's level of overtaking the wall has improved a lot during this period, and now he can see first-hand foreign news.
Seeing the host speaking at a very fast speed that Zhang Cheng could understand only a few words, he quickly took out the verbal necklace from the card. When the metal pendant touched the skin, the birds in front of him could be recognized and understood. This was not his understanding of third-rate foreign language level, but an effect that was very similar to the translator. It could even be said to be the same type of effect.
By the way, this is...what are you doing? Zhang Cai saw that in the video, it seems to be a wilderness, and there are many bonfires full of bonfires. It is not the kind of ordinary camping bonfire, but a large bonfire that is almost one person tall with large pieces of firewood. There are five bonfires in total. It is clearly visible in the distance. In the camera, in addition to the host, the figures of other tourists are also swaying from time to time.
"Dear viewers, let me introduce, the one next to me is Mr. Baker... a wizard, a wizard in Niu Niu Country..." A middle-aged white man appeared in front of the camera, tall, smiling, bald, and wearing casual clothes. Without the introduction, I couldn't tell where he looked like a wizard. "You may not think it's like it. I also felt it at first." The host said in a joke, "But believe me, Mr. Baker is one of the few officially recognized wizards in the world... He will be a VIP guest and introduce the details to us in detail. Mr. Baker, can you give me a brief introduction? What do you know about Indian witchcraft? What do you think of the meaning of this ritual at the moment?"
"Host, you have too many questions. But I will answer one by one. First of all, I want to declare that the origin of my teacher is different from Indian witchcraft. What must be said is the difference between civilized people and barbarians." He said confidently. "For example, I don't know much about this large-scale ritual in the wild. However, although the details are different, I still know very well about Indian witchcraft. For example, these five fires are arranged in neat pentagons, which in the field of witchcraft means 'life'..."
Zhang Cheng understood that this was a magic ceremony. And it was talking about Indian witchcraft? There was no doubt that it was no one else. It was Redstone who held the ceremony. Obviously, this ceremony was not kept confidential, and many well-informed people came to participate or watch.
"We all know that the purpose of this Redstone ceremony was to solve the disease problem of Monopoly Gerald, who tried to cure Gerald's pancreatic cancer through a large-scale ceremony," the host said. "Do you think this is a challenge for science... modern medicine?"
"In fact, I don't think this can be regarded as a challenge. The difference between science and magic is that medical schools around the world produce tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of graduates every year, and Indians can only produce one great wizard after hundreds of years. This itself says everything." The Wizard Baker replied. "There are too few wizards."
"You have said a lot. What do you think of the prospects of this magic? You think..."
While discussing this topic with the guests, the host walked forward. They soon reached a special boundary line. Outside this boundary line, people can act freely, regardless of shooting, action or speaking. However, at the edge of this boundary line, someone came to stop it. Obviously, this is "free from entering".
An Indian dressed in ethnic style stood in front of these people. The security guard held a baton and used body language to signal the few people to stop there.
Zhang Cheng did not start the barrage. But without watching it, you know that there must be crazy complaints in the barrage at this time. But then again, this is not an official program, but the host of the private website was intercepted in the middle, although it is unexpected, it is reasonable.
By the way, if it could only reach this point, the show would not be filmed. However, the host did not show any wavering. Instead, he looked at the camera with a relaxed expression. "Dear viewers, everyone has seen it. Outsiders are prohibited from entering. Under normal circumstances, it is not possible. But fortunately, we have a good friend, and with his help, we got a chance."
They walked along the border line for a while. Here, they were blocked by another guard. However, this time the situation was different, because when the two sides were in a stalemate, a strange young man suddenly came over there. He talked to the guards for a few words, too far to hear what they said, and could not see the young man's appearance, but the guards no longer blocked the hosts and let them go.
Before, I could only see the bonfire from afar, but now the group can pass by a bonfire at a closer distance. You can see a group of Indians in ethnic costumes dancing around the bonfire.
"Mr. Baker, what does this dance mean? Is this movement... this posture special?
"The dance itself is meaningless," the wizard introduced. "The main purpose is to mobilize the dancer's emotions and activate the magic power within a larger range. Our school's theory believes that magic power is usually in a sleeping state or a quiet state, and activation of it is the basis of all witchcraft. Different methods have different advantages and disadvantages. For example, this method has the advantage of being large in scope and low in difficulty, and as long as there are many people, there is no need for special qualifications and abilities. The disadvantage is that although the scope is large, the degree of activation is actually not high."
They passed the bonfire and began to move towards the center of the ceremony. Suddenly, the group stopped.
"Please take a look, the cameraman, the camera is facing there!" The host reminded. Then, the camera looks into the distance and you can see a wheelchair.
People wearing blue and white patient uniforms sat in wheelchairs, with various tubes hanging on their bodies, connected to bottles, jars or various instruments that looked tall. Several white coats walked around. This scene was something that an earthling could see at a glance.
This is probably the Monopoly Gerald.
"This should be Mr. Gerald. Legend has it that he has cancer and is already terminally ill. Although we cannot get close to it, there is no doubt that the legend is not groundless. We should have gone to see him first," the host said in a low voice. "But I think I'd better find where the Redstone Wizard is more suitable."
"It's so interesting..." The little bear kept watching the video, and then suddenly spoke. "It turns out that he is seeking my help... Zhang Cheng, do you want to see what the spiritual realm on the earth looks like?"
Chapter completed!
