I Have Refined Qi For 3000 Years - 491. 22. The Dust of History

Before that, Bai Qiuran had always thought that the prison system of the puppets was used to imprison the beasts for research.

However, now, in the deepest part of this prison, there is an existence that is absolutely a wise creature of the material world being imprisoned.

Bai Qiuran looked inside the prison. The prison was empty, surrounded by metal walls, and a small bed was placed on the wall. Not far from the bed was the toilet for the smart life to go to the toilet and a simple and clean washstand. On the other side of the bed, in that dark corner, there was a thin figure curled up.

The darkness obscured his appearance, but the guardian sequence puppet currently controlled by Bai Qiuran had powerful night vision capabilities in his eyes. In the darkness, Bai Qiuran clearly saw his appearance.

The blue skin, the spiral horns on the top of the head, and the sickly tail on the buttocks, this is indeed a blue-skinned person.

Perhaps Bai Qiuran stayed at the prison window for too long, the light from the eyes of this puppet’s body attracted the attention of the blue man who had been in the dark all year round, and he slowly made a sound.

“Hey you……”

His voice was extremely hoarse and intermittent. It sounded like he had suffered a lot, more like he hadn’t spoken all the year round. He has almost forgotten his native language and needs to think about it slowly.

“Are you… new here? You… shouldn’t… be my compatriot before?”

“Comrades?”

Bai Qiuran stood at the gate of the prison, thought about it, and replied:

“Before the Ascension Ceremony, I was indeed your compatriot.”

“Tell me, my fellow citizens, is our world still the same as before?”

The blue-skinned man seemed to be very old, and his voice felt decayed.

“Before? I don’t know how it was before.”

Bai Qiuran considered his words and tried his best to prevent the blue-skinned old man from discovering any flaws.

“I only know that now, we live in a tall, majestic, safe and comfortable mechanical city. We use rail transportation to completely isolate the dangerous beasts in the wilderness. We are prosperous, and the dazzling array of goods in the store can be accessed casually without worrying about it. The problem for the future. We don’t have to work, we don’t have to study, and work is just a kind of play for us. We can live a good life without being tired or difficult.”

“…”

The blue-skinned old man was silent for a long time and asked:

“So, how many people still work in our field research institutions?”

“Research institute?”

Bai Qiuran pretended to be surprised.

“Isn’t that the god of machine power?”

“…Theocracy? Theocracy? Haha.”

Hearing this, the blue-skinned old man suddenly leaned his back against the wall, slid slowly, and sat down.

“The sky is going to kill my clan, it really is the sky is going to kill my clan!”

Heaven does not carry this scapegoat.

Bai Qiuran murmured silently in his heart, and then asked:

“What day did my clan die? My clan now obviously lives in a paradise.”

“Where is the paradise? Is the paradise given by others also a paradise?”

The blue-skinned old man shouted excitedly:

“Ignorant child! It’s not a paradise that you have won by your own struggle, and it can’t be regarded as a paradise at all!”

He yelled at Bai Qiuran and Tang Ruowei to insult the machine god and the machine puppet, and then sat down weakly, shaking his head and muttering to himself.

“Fine, what am I telling you, your current thinking must have been constrained by the machine god.”

“We are indeed loyal to the machine god.”

Bai Qiuran paused and continued:

“But old sir, I am also very interested in what you said… why did you say such a thing? I don’t quite understand it.”

“Are you interested in what I’m talking about?”

Perhaps it’s been a long time alone. Hearing Bai Qiuran’s words, the blue-skinned old man shrank his toes, a little surprised.

There was a mechanical sound, and Bai Qiuran’s robot head shook up and down and nodded.

The blue-skinned old man was silent for a few seconds, then sighed:

“Forget it, the situation can’t be worse than it is now anyway, let me tell you, if you want to report these [great rebelliousness] words to the machine god, just report it.”

He changed his posture, facing the door of the cell, and said to Bai Qiuran who was standing outside the cell:

“If you don’t choose the Ascension Ceremony, the average life span of our race is between 300 and 500 years old. I think you probably don’t know what our race looked like before. You know that before the arrival of the Mechanic God, What does our world, our civilization, our race look like?”

Bai Qiuran shook his head.

“At that time, our world and our races were not yet unified. We were divided into countless countries on the earth and on our home planet, fighting each other, and we all wanted to annex each other and unite the entire race. .”

The blue-skinned old man looked up at the dark cell.

“At that time, our material life was not as good as it is now. Indeed, at that time, wars, poverty, and famine took away the lives of many compatriots. Our rulers were not all wise. There are many countries in the world. Even under the rule of a malicious ruler, it gradually goes to extinction.”

“But the only thing that is different from now is that at that time, our thinking was [alive]. We knew how our equipment was made, how our history developed, and we established our own system. To take charge of ourselves, we know our shortcomings, and we are also working hard to seek our own development. Although we have various shortcomings, our race is constantly improving.”

The blue-skinned old man paused and added:

“Of course, what I said is something that has a history of about 6,000 to 7,000 years, and I have not experienced it myself.”

“So how did you learn about these things?”

Bai Qiuran asked.

“Because I learned our history through some way.”

The blue-skinned old man raised his eyes and glanced at Bai Qiuran.

“Now in the entire race, no one cares, and no one can know the history of our race.”

“Then have you verified this approach?”

Bai Qiuran continued to ask.

“Of course, when I was free, I also went in and out of the wild many times. Based on historical investigations, I found many relics that are sufficient to support that piece of history.”

The blue old man was a little impatient.

“Do you really think I’m stupid?”

“No.”

Bai Qiuran said:

“Please continue.”

“Then, then the Mechanic God came, bringing its great regiment, the brilliant Mechanic God, and came to our world, using power and strength to integrate our world together in a very short period of time.”

A strange brilliance appeared in the eyes of the blue-skinned old man.

“In the beginning, our life really changed for the better. The Mechanic God was willing to share its technology with us. Some of us voluntarily abandoned our bodies and ascended to become a member of the Mechanic God, fighting for the glory of the Mechanic God. But later, Mechanic’s control over us began to become stricter. It abolished all of our race, schools, military, research institutions, imprisoned all of us scholars with knowledge reserves, and raised us in captivity, just like Like livestock.”

“But no matter what, it didn’t treat us like livestock.”

Bai Qiuran has roughly understood the meaning of the blue-skinned old man, but he continued to act in order to circumscribe and play a confused blue-skinned man.

“Our people are still alive, don’t they?”

“You don’t understand. Didn’t you hear me say that the real paradise is the only paradise gained by your own struggle?”

The blue-skinned old man chuckled lightly.

“Since you are patrolling the night tonight, I believe you should have seen all the beasts in front of my cell. Did you know? Those beasts, thousands of years ago, they were all genuine civilized races.”
