Upon hearing Gou’s words, Lu Xi’an and Yao Wei imdiately widened their eyes.
He looked at Yao Wei, her eyes flashing, not knowing what she was thinking.
Judging by her appearance, this woman probably had the sa suspicion as him, right?
Could it be that the two people who were once in this return capsule could really be Yao Wei’s parents?
"Gou, which ’Huo’ character is in Yao Huo’s na?"
Lu Xi’an asked.
Gou replied, "The character can form the word ’huoxiangzhengqi.’ If you’re unable to understand, chanical Dog 02 can explain the strokes and assist you in writing. Please check it yourself."
"No need."
Lu Xi’an said.
He breathed onto the glass of the driver’s seat and wrote the character "Huo" on it.
This character has too many strokes, making it dense, so he had to write each stroke as finely as possible to make it clear.
Yao Wei stared at the word Lu Xi’an wrote on the car window, silently.
After finishing writing, Lu Xi’an turned and asked Yao Wei, "The ’Wei’ in your na, is it the sa, with the grass radical?"
Yao Wei nodded and said, "Yes."
Lu Xi’an pondered for a long ti and said, "Then it should be... just that..."
"Really?"
Yao Wei slightly widened her eyes and asked.
They seed to be speaking in riddles, but the aning in their words was exceedingly clear to them—
All these clues pointed to that answer—
Yao Wei’s parents very likely originated from here.
They ca from the sky!
They definitely did!
How could they not?
Lu Xi’an carefully linked the clues he knew.
Actually, there was no need to connect too much, just a little clue was enough—
"From the nas alone, you can know a lot."
Lu Xi’an said, "Yao Wei, your na is quite different from the people in this world.
"Look at what others are nad, Liu Hua, Tang Er, Xuan Xiaocao, Yang Guan, Chang... Nas like Chai Xin and Luo Ping are considered better.
"But their nas, no matter what, are all simple, ordinary, without any implied aning.
"But yours is different. While the character ’Wei’ is also common, for the people of this world, it’s sowhat unusual.
"And you clearly know that your na is the ’Wei’ from ’Caiwei,’ not any other ’Wei.’
"Also, the characters you know, most people in this world don’t understand.
"Compared to you, they fall far behind. The characters you know were taught by your mother, right?"
"Yes."
Yao Wei nodded. But she thought of sothing and said, "But your na is also very different, Lu Xi’an. It’s quite different from others.
"You know characters and understand things more than anyone else. Even Luo Ping knows characters."
Lu Xi’an leaned back on the chair, looking at the windshield ahead, and let out a long breath.
The moonlight fell onto the windshield of the RV, forming a dazzling line.
The dazzling light fell on Lu Xi’an and Yao Wei’s faces, almost lighting up both of their eyes.
"As for my story, I truly don’t know how to explain."
Lu Xi’an said wistfully, after hesitating for a long ti, he said, "If I tell you I’m a Transmigrator, would you believe ?"
This was sothing he initially planned to keep forever hidden, not intending to tell anyone.
This matter was his biggest secret, a secret not suitable for anyone to know.
In the web novels of his previous life, revealing this secret to others was seen as the biggest deception point.
Yet he felt no need to hide it from Yao Wei.
Having known and interacted with Yao Wei for so long, their relationship had beco close to this extent, he was extrely clear what kind of woman Yao Wei was.
Even Yao Wei herself probably wasn’t as clear as Lu Xi’an.
Therefore, Lu Xi’an knew he had no need to hide from Yao Wei, this woman would absolutely not be of any harm to him.
They were already one, why hide any secrets from each other?
Hm... Gou is also no problem.
This Gou is quite safe too, having been with Lu Xi’an from south to north, he had treated Gou well and knew it thoroughly.
But upon his honesty, Yao Wei didn’t understand: "Transmigrator?"
Lu Xi’an said, "You can understand it as I co from another world, crossed ti and space, and inadvertently appeared in this world.
"The world I originally ca from is just like those videos you watched, everything was still good, cities, villages, schools, malls...
"Everything was there, everything was fine.
"You’ve seen it on the television as well, there everyone goes to school and learns knowledge, thus our nas would differ from most people of this world.
"Hence I know many things that you all don’t."
He originally expected Yao Wei’s sudden realization followed by a query to search for the root cause, but unexpectedly, after he finished, his hand resting on the gear lever of the center console was suddenly held by Yao Wei.
"You have in the future."
Yao Wei said softly, her voice gentle and rare, like a trickling warm current, flowing into Lu Xi’an’s ear, "I will always be here."
Lu Xi’an suddenly realized that this woman had heard the underlying aning in his words.
He spoke to Yao Wei about the prosperity of his forr world, but it also made Yao Wei realize the desolate loneliness he felt when he ended up in this world.
In comparison, for the average person, it would be hard to accept and might even be overwhelming, right?
Perhaps Yao Wei was reminded of her own experience, when her mother had just passed away, and she was alone and helpless, it was so difficult...
Lu Xi’an softly smiled, clasped Yao Wei’s hand in return, looked directly into Yao Wei’s eyes, and said, "I’ve always been here."
"Hmm."
Yao Wei nodded, her voice revealing happiness.
She suddenly asked, "What did you an by Caiwei?"
She seed deeply interested in this question, her eyes burning as she looked at Lu Xi’an.
Lu Xi’an replied, "That is a poem from the Classic of Poetry: Caiwei, Caiwei, the vee is hardy, Caiwei, Caiwei, the vee is gentle, Caiwei, Caiwei, the vee is firm..."
This poem, Caiwei, isn’t short, and Lu Xi’an couldn’t rember it all, so he didn’t explain it in detail to Yao Wei.
He just picked those lines "Caiwei" and explained to Yao Wei, "Vee, actually has two interpretations.
"One describes a rose, a very beautiful flower, and another interpretation refers to a type of wild vegetable.
"In Caiwei, it refers to this wild vegetable. Caiwei ans picking wild vegetables.
"However, the poem only uses the act of picking vee as a taphor to describe the cruelty of war and the sorrow of missing one’s holand.
"Maybe your parents nad you this to make you as beautiful as a rose, or perhaps to reminisce about their holand? Giving you this na might have been their way of entrusting sothing within you?
"Which do you think your na, Wei, refers to?"
Yao Wei thought for a mont and said, "I don’t know."
Lu Xi’an then changed his approach, asking with a smile, "Which one do you want it to be?"
But Yao Wei thought again and still said, "I don’t know." She quickly turned the question around and asked Lu Xi’an, "Lu Xi’an, which do you think it should be?"
Lu Xi’an: "..."
He gazed into Yao Wei’s captivating eyes and, without needing much thought, blurted out, "In my opinion, I think you have both.
"The beauty of a rose and the resilience of the wild vegetable in Caiwei.
"No matter what, you have all their virtues."
Yao Wei suddenly averted her gaze, unable to look directly at Lu Xi’an.
This woman, who was so straightforward and spoke about even childbirth with such candor, was now shy to the extre, her face tinged with a ruddy hue, unbelievably so.
"Let’s go, we still need to take a look inside."
She hurriedly changed the topic, saying as she prepared to get out of the car.
Lu Xi’an couldn’t help but smile, saying, "We haven’t finished asking Gou yet."
Yao Wei’s hand on the door handle paused, unsure where to place her hands for a mont.
"Hurry and ask."
She had no choice but to draw her hand back and said.
Lu Xi’an then asked Gou, "Gou, what about the other three places, specifically what makes them special?"
Gou replied, "The cabin walls have inscriptions, tentatively judged to be an operation manual, severely eroded by salt, corroded extensively, if the cabin were intact, it would be repairable and have reference value."
Lu Xi’an caught the key point, "Can the cabin still be used?"
Gou said, "Severe damage and corrosion, judged unusable."
Lu Xi’an: "..."
Then why even ntion it!
"What about the other two?"
Lu Xi’an asked again.
Gou replied, "The ground contains amber-like organisms including compressed biscuit crumbs and indigenous fungi, having a strong hallucinogenic effect. Can serve a unique purpose, recomnded for collection."
Hmm, this might be useful...
Lu Xi’an recalled those amber-like substances, feeling they were nothing like the mushrooms from Yunnan.
If you ate that, who knows what kind of hallucinations you’d experience?
But since Gou had ntioned it, it should be collected later just in case it served so special function at certain tis, that would be great too.
"And what about the last place?"
Lu Xi’an asked again, "What is the clump on the ground in the corner? Is there anything special about it?"
Gou imdiately replied, "It is an extremophile microbial community, attached to the storage compartnt panel. Once cleared, the storage compartnt can be opened."
So that’s it!
Lu Xi’an suddenly understood.
He had previously searched the cabin and found so drawers and cabinets, but they were all empty, with no discoveries at all.
He considered if there were any hidden doors, he searched, but found nothing.
Originally, he thought he was mistaken but didn’t expect that so microorganisms blocked the storage compartnt door.
"How should it be cleared?"
He asked.
He had looked at that place before, but there was no way to start pulling it apart.
Gou replied, "It is recomnded to clear it by burning."
"Alright, got it."
Lu Xi’an and Yao Wei imdiately got out of the car, took a lighter inside, squatted in the corner, and set it on fire with the lighter.
The extremophile microorganisms, once touched by the fla, were instantly reduced like the receding tide, until they disappeared completely.
Under the extremophile microbial community, the storage compartnt panel was revealed.
