Chapter 9 How Humans
"Don't worry, it's the keeper." Xu gently put one hand on Yuchen's sword and stopped Yuchen's action. "Don't do too much action, or you will be regarded as an intruder."
Yu Chen nodded and put away his breath of death. Xu took two steps forward and read a series of twisting syllables in his mouth, and then two beams of light came straight out of the eyes of the black humanoid and then convercated.
The light gradually lit up, and Yuchen was able to see the whole picture of the black human figure. It is indeed not human, but more like a bronze statue. The workmanship is exquisite. Each metal muscle is extremely exquisite. The golden-scale body is completely like a work of art written by a master.
Yuchen clearly saw that two strands of blue energy slowly poured into it along the channels around the black statue, and then there was a series of energy collision crackling in the statue's body. Perhaps it had not been activated for a long time. At this time, the energy was once again, and the light suddenly dimmed, which lasted for more than ten minutes before it was slightly slow.
"Why do I feel that he is going to jump at any time?" He whispered to Xu. Yuchen looked at the statue in front of him and only felt that an inexplicable pressure naturally came out of his heart.
"Don't worry, it's a routine procedure. Only the guard's hands can open the door of the tomb. There is no other way. Everything here can't be solved by brute force." He said in a soft voice.
Sure enough, when the energy under his feet is fully input, the whole statue seems to be coated with a halo, and the whole body is crystal clear, and countless light spots are exposed from it, like stars all over the sky.
With several loud rumblings, the statue actually moved its body and then opened its mouth.
Yuchen can't understand a word. The words of the statue completely belong to another stage of civilization. In addition, the tone of the statue itself does not have any emotional color, which is even more indistinguishable.
However, she seemed to be skillful. She slowly opened her mouth, spit out a series of complex and astringent syllables, and began to talk to the statue one by one.
Yuchen stood aside like a foil, not knowing what to do.
"It's a little troublesome, Yuchen." While thinking about it, Xu suddenly turned around and opened his mouth to himself.
Yuchen hurriedly asked, "Why, isn't the communication with this big crystal smooth?"
"His words are a little strange now. I was just a routine conversation, but he has been talking to himself some words that I can't understand, so I can only ask you to help communicate with him. With your wisdom, you must be able to understand what he is saying." He shrugged his shoulders and said.
"Me?" Yuchen pointed to the tip of his nose and smiled, "I don't even know what you said. You still want me to distinguish it. It's right that spiritual spells can understand the mind, but it doesn't mean that you can understand the mind of the machine."
"If I don't let you understand his mind, I will let go of the spiritual barrier and let you enter, and then I will make a translation of what he said. That's all I can do. If I retranslate it into just multiple words, I'm afraid it will exceed the conversation time. After all, even I can barely read the meaning, and I have lost too much memory. ."
"What should I do?" Yuchen said worriedly, "I have never done such a thing."
"You just need to integrate your spirit with my spirit."
"I know. I will try to be careful." Yuchen has no nonsense. At this time, nonsense can't solve any problems. Everything can only be carried out according to the false meaning, looking at each other and smiling. Both sides understood the meaning of trust from each other's eyes. Yuchen closed his eyes and began to guide his mental strength lightly.
Now he is not what he used to be. In addition, after integrating the realm of stopping the water, the manipulation of spiritual power has reached an indescribable level. He tried to penetrate the spiritual power into the virtual mind. Sure enough, the virtual has opened the barrier, which also allows Yuchen to sneak into it smoothly.
Only a profound spiritual mage can control the opening or closing of their own mental barrier. For ordinary people, the mental barrier is always automatically opened, which is also a biological self-defense instinct. If you want to sneak into the other party's heart, unless you first erase the other party's mental barrier like Yuchen, and then change your own strength. OK, but this will definitely cause permanent and indelible damage to the other party.
At this time, the body and mind are released, and the spirits of the two are mixed together. This is a mysterious and unspeakable feeling. Even Xu himself can't help tremble. The spirit is not as good as the body, and no one even knows the principle of its composition. The only clear thing is that the spirit is much more fragile than the body. The ancients said that the soul is scattered, that is, It is said that if the source of the spirit is hurt, it will collapse and the person will become a walking corpse.
Yuchen also understood that Xu had given his whole life to himself at this time, and he could not live up to her painstaking efforts.
Gradually, Yuchen's heart completely calmed down. At this moment, he felt that he was virtual, virtual was himself, and he was no longer separated from each other.
The virtual words are just like what I said, and what I hear is really reflected in my mind.
He opened his mouth, and the complex syllables came into his mind, but they were so familiar, as if he had known what he meant.
"Great Guardian Proctor, please allow me to make my request again. We need to enter the last treasure house and take out the seal. Please open the last barrier."
The statue rumbled and spoke like thunder. This time, Yuchen understood the words of the statue: "The noble and pure Ancherus, you must abide by the rules and answer my question, otherwise I will not allow you to enter this door."
"Can you tell me why? The great guardian of Proctor."
"I have been watching for tens of thousands of years. Even if the outside world withers and the mountains and seas change, it can't shake half of the great city. In these tens of millions of years, I have been able to gradually have the heart of human beings by reading the knowledge in the treasure house, but I am confused and I can't resist the determination of the master. The iron law gradually has something that seems to be the feelings recorded in the literature.
"I began to learn to store data. Is this what human beings call memory?"
"I have always been confused. What kind of existence am I? Is the meaning of my existence what the owner said to protect here?"
"I need an answer, as long as you can tell me what I am? If the answer satisfies me, I will open the treasure house and hand over the last treasure of Ancherus to you.
In my mind, there are false words: "The change of this guardian scares me. This has certain feelings. The soul of the guardian should be just a trace of fragments given to them by their creators, only obedience and compliance with the regulations..." P>
"I see. Let me talk to him." Yuchen must be in his mind. Now that the two souls are fused together, he seems to understand the basics of this ancient language. When he tried to speak, the words came out of his empty mouth.
"Tell me, the great guardian Proctor, what exactly is human?"
"Human beings are the existence of all great souls." The guardian replied.
"What exactly is the soul?"
"The soul is the heart that obeys."
"What are you following?"
"What he followed was..." The guardian was stuck. He stopped, as if thinking, as if recalling the question and answer just now. Both of them maintained a tacit silence and did not have a dialogue for a long time.
"Tell me... what exactly are you following?" The guardian opened his mouth, and this time his language felt a little short, and he seemed to be very anxious to get the answer.
"You are confused about what kind of existence you are. In fact, in your heart, you have already made a conclusion." Without directly answering the guardian's question, Yuchen said, "If you follow human emotions with human words, you will think... the questions that human beings will think about."
"What you are confused about now is only your own body. Obviously, you have no human body, but you follow the logic of human behavior. So are you a human?"
"You're right, great wise man, please tell me what I should do."
Yuchen smiled and said, "Follow your feelings, even if it's a failure. The reason why human beings are human beings is that human beings have dreams, and your dream is to become a human being."
"From this point of view, you are already a person, and your soul is your own heart, and what you obey is yourself." Yuchen said, "Let go of confusion, you can become a real human, because human beings never ask themselves whether they are human or not."
The guardian seemed to understand and didn't seem to understand. He silently thought about Chen's words and stayed there. As Yuchen, that words were only his own understanding. After all, he had asked himself the same question for a long time.
What exactly are you? Humans? But it is a creature made by human beings. Is it still human?
Rebirth once made him ecstatic and obtained a human body, and finally became a real human. Because of this, he decided to live as a human.
Later, after a dialogue with Gaia, Yuchen's perception of life further sublimated. In his view, human beings are ideal lives. Now it seems that the situation of this guardian is somewhat similar to that of himself. For thousands of years, without the support of exhausted energy, he has gradually learned to think and feelings. He has been pursuing a truth, a truth that belongs to himself, until now.
Yuchen suddenly gave birth to a feeling that seemed to be sympathetic to the guardians. He was born without knowing the cause and lived without knowing his fate. This is the saddest life.
After a long time, the guardian finally opened his mouth.
"Thank you, great wise man, you have solved my confusion for thousands of years. I am qualified to enter the treasure house. I can open the treasure house for you, but I need your help."
"Please tell me, Guardian Proctor, tell me your confusion."
"I understand human feelings, but I also understand the fact that I can't become a real human after all. I want to ask you to end my life and end these tens of millions of years of suffering. As you said, there is a dream to become a human being. Now, my dream has come true, but I don't have it. He dreams of living like a walking corpse and choosing to die alive.
"I can't choose to die by myself, so please help me and end my life."
