Chapter 136 Tianyan Stone Book
As soon as these words came out, Shi Ban fell silent, and so did the two women.
[After the rewards for the fourth trial were distributed, the inheritance was downgraded. Do I need to issue the rewards for the fourth trial? ]
"No, no, no, why are you so petty?"
"I'll give you a reward and you'll be demoted."
Wu Wei still knows the importance. Although he doesn't know what inheritance is, it is obviously much more valuable than the reward of a trial.
[Do you accept the inheritance? ]
"How long will the inheritance take? Will my people sleep in the territory, or will they disappear?"
After the unknown situation of the survival trial emerged, Wu Wei said that if you have any questions, you should ask them clearly.
[The territory will be absorbed into the body of the inheritor, and the inheritor will physically enter to accept the inheritance. ]
"Okay, I choose to accept the inheritance."
After getting a satisfactory answer, Wu Wei replied directly without any hesitation.
The next moment, the huge territory between the two stone slabs and everyone in it suddenly disappeared.
After sensing that there was no problem with the territory within his body, Wu Wei took stock of the surrounding environment.
"Um?!"
Wu Wei saw a familiar scene, this was the tribe from his previous trial.
The original cave-dwelling tribe, the cave in front of him, even though a long time had passed, the shape of the cave opening was still fresh in his memory.
"Lin, grandma, Gu?"
Familiar names floated with Wu Wei's voice, but there was no response at all.
Wu Wei walked into the cave and saw a piece of tortoise shell and forty-nine yarrow roots placed where the totem was originally used for sacrifice.
When he saw these two things, Wu Wei finally remembered what he had forgotten.
That mysterious and inexplicable cultivation method and all the memories related to it seemed to have disappeared.
It wasn't until I saw the yarrow that I had been playing with for decades that the disappeared memories slowly appeared as if they were unsealed.
But no specific memory about cultivation was left behind.
Just when Wu Wei wanted to touch the yarrow, the yarrow and the tortoise shell beside it suddenly turned into light and disappeared.
What was left in place was a stone book.
Looking at the stone book in front of him, Wu Wei began to wonder whether his previous experiences were in a time illusion.
Not-so-distant memories resurfaced.
...
Yi asked:
"Father, is there any way to preserve the information for a long time?"
"Whether it is carved on bamboo or wood, the information will always become blurred and faded quickly as time goes by."
"Even if you teach us how to make silk cloth from silk, as time goes by, even the symbols recorded on the silk cloth will disappear."
When Wu Wei heard this question, he was thinking carefully when he suddenly thought of a science fiction novel he had read in his previous life.
The human beings inside once asked such a question when they were facing a desperate situation and wanted to carve a tombstone for themselves.
How to retain information for a long time.
Quantum storage is not good. No matter how optimized it is, the storage will be damaged in just two thousand years.
Old-fashioned USB flash drives and hard drives, if individually optimized and manufactured, can last for five thousand years.
The special disc can be stored for 100,000 years.
But these methods are not as good as printed matter. Specially produced printed matter can be preserved for more than 200,000 years.
But that’s where the upper limit ends.
For a civilization, there is no difference between whether a tombstone has been erected for 200,000 years or not.
The end result is the best way to preserve information that humans have found.
"Carve the words on the stone."
Wu Wei touched Yi's head and spoke word by word.
While he was rising and falling, he retrieved a huge stone from outside and said to Yi.
"This stone has existed longer than most tribes and even civilizations have existed."
"If there is something that must be passed down, engrave it on stone."
...
Wu Wei looked at the huge stone book called "Tian Yan". After touching it, Wu Wei was stunned.
A soft male voice sounded in Wu Wei's ears at this time. In addition to Wu Wei's uncontrollable admiration, Wu Wei felt more familiar and strange.
"The inheritance of Tao is carved on stone to be passed down to future generations."
He clearly felt that the source of the voice was his ancestor, not his blood-related ancestor.
But the person speaking was the ancestor of Human Race, and the feeling in Wu Wei's bloodline couldn't be suppressed at all.
It felt familiar, because if Wu Wei heard it correctly, it was clearly the voice of his son Yi.
"My son is my ancestor, why are you kidding me?"
But he firmly believed that he couldn't hear him wrong. Although the man spoke in a garrulous manner, his voice was definitely Yi's.
Wu Wei really couldn't tell the difference now, but after he used his smart head.
Suddenly he thought of the possibility that he might have experienced the life trajectory of a person in that time and space who might be called "Wei" or might have another name.
This is much easier to accept than his son being his ancestor.
These ancient things were too mysterious. Wu Wei chose to think about it later. Now in front of him was this stone book that was his inheritance.
After Wu Wei turned the first page, he was addicted to it.
He understood that this book of preaching called "Tian Yan" was far beyond the simple magic he had received.
His cultivation in the previous life was just Dharma practice, and he was still far away from the level of Taoism. Not to mention that he had completely forgotten Dharma now.
"The number of Dayan is fifty, and the number of Tianyan is ninety-nine, and one of them escapes."
"Heaven and earth have their own fixed numbers and their own variables."
"Forty-nine are determination, one is change."
"The fixed number is destiny, the variable is luck."
...
Wu Wei was immersed in it and his mind was clear.
Sometimes it feels like I understand everything, and other times it feels like I understand nothing.
The truth contained in these words is far beyond what he can understand now.
Every word seems to carry a kind of Tao, Tao and Tao are intertwined, the structure of the world, the rules of the universe...
Wu Wei could only be a spectator, looking at this stone book to show him the principles and principles contained in it.
He can only see, cannot feel, cannot understand.
After Wu Wei read the entire stone book, he was immersed in it and wanted to read it again.
However, during the action, he fell to the ground. The place where he fell happened to be the place where he slept during the trial. His whole face was as peaceful as if he had died.
Only the slightest sound of breathing indicated that he was still alive.
After Wu Wei fell to the ground and fell asleep, the stone book also turned into light spots and disappeared.
He seemed to have returned to the survival trial, lying quietly in the cave and sleeping alone.
