Linen is the strongest type of textile and is often used as a canvas. How did Old Tang tear off a piece with his bare hands?
When he got it in his hand, Li Liang understood the reason.
This piece of cloth seems to have been stored for many years, and it has become crispy like an unearthed cultural relic.
Judging from the shape, Old Tang probably pulled one side of the cloth and tore it out into an irregular semicircle. The bottom edge was relatively regular, but the curved edge was frizzy and uneven.
Spread on the hemp mat, Li Liang immediately saw the "special" area that Lao Tang said was located in the center of the semicircle. It was indeed obviously different from the surroundings, and the warp and weft threads were woven more loosely.
Taking a closer look, he soon discovered why this area was different.
In most areas of the fabric, the warp and weft lines alternate up and down very regularly, and are woven quite tightly. However, in this area, the warp and weft lines are irregular. Sometimes there will be continuous warp lines on top, which will naturally relax.
Gently touching the loose area, Li Liang was extremely sure that this thing must have meaning.
The question is how to crack it.
At this time.
K twisted the fabric with his fingers and said casually: "When I met the little Saron the night before yesterday, it said that the 'New World' had connected this loom externally in order to communicate with humans."
"Oh, yes," Tam rubbed the beard on his lips, "It is an inorganic creature that exists in a plasma-like state before it forms a body. The lights they saw are its way of existence."
"Ah?" Old Tang said in shock, "Then it watched us stick bombs on the loom?"
Tam spread her hands, expressing her confusion.
"By the way, I remembered it," K recalled, "Salon the trumpet also said that it was not a loom, but... what was it for, oh, a Turing machine."
Li Liang was stunned: "Turing machine? When did it say it?"
"You said it in front of us in that second-hand furniture store," K wondered, "Didn't you hear?"
"..."
Li Liang reacted. At that time, he was shocked by the "spiritual species" and realized that the "New World" might be a heavenly spirit. He didn't notice the conversation between the trumpet Saron and K at all.
Turing machine…
"Mr. Tam, the life of inorganic creatures comes from..."
"Operation."
Operations...
Machine language?
Li Liang brought the cloth to his eyes, looked at the irregular longitude and latitude lines in that special area, and murmured: "These are 0 and 1."
"What do you mean?" K asked.
"This is binary, with the longitude at the top representing 1, and the latitude at the top representing 0. It can also be reversed. These are machine languages," Li Liang said excitedly, "Last time in Ex Machina, the person you found who knew computers, What is your name and where are you now?"
"Maurice?" K thought for a while, "I guess he's hanging out in some club on Yiban Street."
"Find him," Li Liang folded the cloth carefully, stood up and said to Old Tang, "You need to rest first."
"Hey, hey," Old Tang nodded, got up and walked the three of them to the door.
After closing the door, he slowly walked back to the living room, sat on the futon with a confused look on his face, was stunned for a while, took out a double-ring ring from his pocket and put it on his left hand, saying to himself: "Oh, I finally became enlightened. What is the essence?"
——————————
In the corridor.
The three of them walked towards Brother Shui's room.
K made a voice call to one of his men with his bracelet and told him to call back after finding Morris.
After hanging up the call, he wondered: "I met Old Tang in the backyard of Nirvana Building. If he didn't lie, did he crawl out of the pipe again?"
"It's possible," Li Liang nodded, "I separated everyone just for cross-examination. Let's listen to what Brother Shui has to say."
Boom boom.
Arriving at the door of Brother Shui's room, K just knocked twice and the door was immediately opened from the inside.
In the entrance hall, Brother Shui was holding the doorknob with a calm expression.
"How do you feel?" Li Liang smiled.
"Not bad," Brother Shui nodded to K and bowed to Tam.
Tam put her hands on her hands and smiled: "Oh, if you don't mind, let's talk?"
"good."
moment.
The four of them sat down on the sofa.
The first words Brother Shui said were shocking: "There is something wrong with Cain."
Li Liang glanced at K, leaned on the back of the sofa and said with a smile, "Let's start from the beginning."
Next.
Brother Shui recounted the experience of the Nirvana Building from his perspective, until the soldiers were divided into two groups. It was similar to what Old Tang said, except that Brother Shui was calmer and noticed more details. For example, the Green Flame Giant should be a kind of death. Spiritual magic, for example, there was a group of magicians fighting with the spacecraft of the Marginal Business Department at the height.
After the soldiers split into two groups, the story became even weirder.
"House hid the airship in the basement of the building diagonally opposite the Nirvana Building. This man is very smart. Those airships were not just hidden there. There are many of them and they are equipped with full weapons. We have no time to hesitate and take the airship immediately. When we set off, we thought there would be a battle to the death, but...no, when we came out, Nirvana Building was very quiet."
"What kind of silence is it?" Li Liang asked, "As if nothing happened?"
"No, it's not," Brother Shui smiled. "Both parties died together. All the spaceships and airships have crashed. Do you think it's an illusion? No."
Li Liang nodded.
Brother Shui is different from Old Tang. He has a more open mind and can communicate quite effortlessly.
"At that time, it was too late to think about whether there was a trap. We drove the airship into the podium building and hit the elevator entrance of the main building. As a result... there was no one. I found a few cigarette butts in the corner. I just stubbed them out, indicating that Zhuos's The gunmen withdrew, and they retreated to the roof."
Brother Shui fell into memories, "Cain wanted to chase up, worried that the four princesses would take away the New World, but I once heard the ruler say that the 'New World' cannot be moved, it must still be underground, and if it can Moving around casually, there was no need for the fourth princess and the psychic to stick to such a big goal as the Nirvana Building. With my insistence, we began to move downwards.
No one was encountered, and all passive defenses were turned off. It didn't take long for us to reach the deepest part of the underground, where the airtight door... was ajar.
This is the most terrifying situation. You break into a place where you should have a narrow escape, only to find that the place is not defended at all. This can only mean that it is a trap and the enemy deliberately let you in.
Cain hesitated, sensing danger.
Then, I heard Old Tang's voice. "
Brother Shui lowered his eyes and said in a dull voice: "Old Tang and the others...are cheering."
"Cheering?" Li Liang was stunned for a moment and looked at Tam.
Tam shook her head.
Neither of them heard anything about "cheering" from Old Tang's mind.
"Yes," Brother Shui said with a gloomy expression, "I told Cain that something was wrong and we could no longer hesitate... Then, we rushed in, only to find that Old Tang and the others were sticking bombs, and no one cheered."
"Psychic vision," Tam rubbed his mustache.
"Thinking about it now, maybe yes, but we didn't think much of it at the time. The new world is right in front of us, and we can destroy it right away." Brother Shui took a deep breath, leaned forward, and whispered, "It was activated during the countdown of the bomb. For a moment, I saw a monster appear from the magic circle above my head, a monster with a wolf head, a snake body, and bat wings..."
Tam interrupted: "Oh? What essence did you enlighten?"
"Penance."
"Oh, no wonder, Mr. Shui, what you see is 'Machisas', the archangel who cultivates the essence, seals the path, and the scepter's sephiroth. He is also called the 'Lord of Seals'."
Brother Shui was a little confused.
Psychics only think of magic as a language and know nothing about God's system.
"What you saw was the shadow of a god," Li Liang squeezed Brother Shui's shoulder, "Then, what happened?"
"Everyone except Cain was unconscious, and my consciousness slowly blurred, but it was a little better than others. The last scene I saw was that all the light entered Cain's body, she floated up, and the roof The magic circle on her body seemed to have melted, flowed down, and enveloped her."
Li Liang looked sternly and slowly turned his head to look at Tam.
Tam was equally serious: "Oh, this is really bad news."
