Looking at the time, it was already three o'clock in the morning, but none of us felt sleepy. In the relative silence, the doorbell rang again. Bai Su and I looked at each other, but we couldn't think of anyone who would visit us at this time, could it be that Animi left and returned? I hurried downstairs to open the door. As soon as the door opened, I was stunned. I opened my mouth wide, both surprised and happy. For a moment, I waved my hands, not knowing what to do. Bai Su also came downstairs, she was also stunned when she saw me like this: "Please come in." As if waking up from a dream, I said repeatedly: "Naturally."

While talking, I hurriedly reached out and grabbed the wrist of the person outside the door, lest he escape, my expression was a bit abnormal, but when I dodged, Bai Su could also see who was outside the door, Bai Su She couldn't help shouting "ah", and she also recognized who the person outside the door was. Mi Duan, the person outside the door is Mi Duan. I kept grabbing his wrist and almost pulled him in. At the same time, I gave Bai Su a wink. Bai Su rushed over to close the door, and then I let go of his wrist. Mi Duan smiled wryly: "Since I'm here, I won't leave, you don't have to... like this."

I was a little embarrassed: "I'm really sorry, I'm really... I'm really separated from you, although it's only a few days, but there are too many experiences, so when you appear, really, I'm afraid that you will suddenly disappear again .” Bai Su smiled at me: "Actually, it's useless for you to tie him up. I think Mr. Mi Duan at least knows how to move the universe." Mi Duan was a little surprised: "What is this, I have never heard of it." Bai Su said in a deep voice: "The great transfer of time and space, this is the so-called 'Great Teleportation of the Universe' in ancient China, a method that can change time and space at will."

When Bai Su was saying that, I stared at Mi Duan, and Mi Duan's expression changed slightly, and when Bai Su finished speaking, he said: "I thought no one would know this." When he said this, it was tantamount to admitting that he did have the ability to transfer time and space at will. Really proving this point is quite different from speculating on getting this conclusion. For a moment, I couldn't help but open my mouth wide and couldn't speak. The first thing I thought of was: Who is Mi Duan?Why does he have that incredible power? Bai Su called this ability "The Great Teleportation Method of the Universe", which is naturally appropriate. The question is: why does he, Mi Duan, have such power?

Before I had time to ask many questions, Mi Duan murmured: "The ability of human beings is beyond imagination. There is only one person who has the ability to communicate with the soul. Such extraordinary ability." I finally burst out a question: "Are you a person with extraordinary abilities?" Mi Duan didn't answer my question directly, but just looked at me: "Mr. Wei, do you remember what I said that day that I would ask for your help?" I said: "Of course I remember, but you are so powerful that you can even move a fire that happened 30 years ago to any time. I don't know how else I can help you."

Mi Duan smiled wryly again: "I don't want you to help me with something, but I just want you to do one thing and help me make a decision." When Mi Duan said this, his expression was very hesitant, and my heart was full of doubts. He glanced at Bai Su again: "I also want to ask Mrs. Wei to provide some advice." I made a gesture: "Of course, first let us know what kind of thing it is." Mi Duan thought for a while, I picked up a bottle of wine and shook it at him, he shook his head to express his disapproval, and then he said: "Like the scenes displayed in the wax museum... like you just now... What I saw when I was in contact with some souls, this kind of thing—"

When he said this, I couldn't help but asked, "How do you know that we had contact with souls just now?" Mi Duan just frowned and didn't answer, Bai Su lightly touched me: "What's the matter with you? Of course Mr. Mi has the ability to know, don't interrupt Mr. Mi again." I looked at Bai Su with a questioning look, but Bai Su ignored me.Mi Duan took a breath: "This kind of thing has been happening in human history, isn't it?" For this question, there is no need to think about it at all, you can have the answer: "Yes, it keeps happening."

Mi Duan sighed: "Since many of these things have been clearly recorded in history, why do they keep repeating and repeating, and keep happening?" This question is much more difficult to answer, I shook my head: "Or, this is caused by the inferiority of human beings." Mi Duan did not delve into it further, and asked: "If there are so many written records, the inferiority of human beings cannot be improved in the slightest. Will it be improved if it is expressed in another way? For example, if the The tragic situation is alive in front of the eyes of human beings, will there be any improvement?"

I was stunned again, and Bai Su already said: "Humans have inferiority, but they also have a beautiful side of human nature. Human nature is very complicated, and there are really only inferiority, after all, they are a minority, and these minority often have a great advantage, and can do whatever they want , I think, no matter what method is used, these people can’t be changed, and the vast majority of people don’t need to change anything.” Mi Duan listened attentively, and when Bai Su finished speaking, he let out a sigh of relief: "That's exactly what I mean." At this moment, another strange thing happened, we suddenly heard a very soft and pleasant female voice: "I also mean the same, so I have stopped implementing it."

The sound came to our ears clearly, but not only could we not see the person who made the sound, but we couldn't even confirm from which direction the sound came from. Mi Duan was a little unhappy: "You are like this...it's inevitable..." That pleasant voice suddenly let out a sigh: "Do you think Mr. Wei and Mrs. Wei don't know our identities yet? Why bother to cover up and make people laugh." As soon as I heard the voice say this, I was shocked for a moment, and immediately looked at Bai Su, knowing that Bai Su understood it earlier than me, and I didn't understand it until now. Already understood.

When human beings only have a vague concept of time and space, Mi Duan already has the ability to transfer time and space with ease. He is not from Earth, don't you understand? Bai Su smiled a little: "Actually, I still don't quite understand your real identities, but I just guess that you must have a special mission when you come to Earth, don't you?" Although I didn't understand it for a while, I was not a person with an inflexible mind. At this moment, in an instant, I thought of many things and said hurriedly: "Why do I only hear the sound but not see the person? Is the person still in South America? ?” The melodious female voice sighed again: "What's the difference between South America and here? Human concepts are really persistent." Following the voice, a soft light flashed, and we saw a girl appearing in front of us, she frowned, with an expression of indescribable resentment, she was a very beautiful girl.When she appeared, Mi Duan stood up and sat down again, still with a very disapproving expression, and asked: "You stopped implementing it? Don't let human beings hear the mournful voice from their own kind?" I wanted to ask something, but Bai Su pulled me, motioning me to keep quiet and listen to the conversation between her and Mi Duan. The girl said: "Yes, because I think it is useless. We have been carrying out missions for a long time, but what has changed in human behavior? When these things happen, the people who caused these things to happen have a heart I understand it very well, but I still do the same thing, and I want to impose endless suffering on others. Now, if this situation is repeated, will it improve the bad side of human nature?" Mi Duan smiled wryly: "Why don't I know, but how do I explain to those wronged souls?" At this time, the doubts in my heart really reached the extreme, but Bai Su resolutely refused to let me speak out, so I had no choice but to endure it. The girl sighed again: "Those...souls, alas, they...they, alas..." She sighed again and again, obviously not knowing what to do. At this time, unexpectedly, Bai Su said suddenly: "Those souls, we should ask them to put an end to the pain in life, and go through the same procedure as ordinary people's souls to transform." The girl hurriedly said, "Yes, that's how it should be." Mi Duan said: "Oh, I don't believe it will be useful, how could they obey." At this time, there were four people in total, and three of them were talking, and I just rolled my eyes like a fool. I only had some extremely elusive concepts, and I couldn't express them in obvious words at all. The girl said: "At least we can tell them that we have done it, but it is useless. Moreover, the evil human nature is deeply rooted, and it is by no means easy to correct it. In my opinion, human beings are basically like that." The girl said again: "What happened before they were alive will continue to happen for generations to come. I want to go back and suggest that we no longer have to accept such complaints in the future." Hearing this, I couldn't hold back anymore, and suddenly yelled: "What are you talking about! Complaints, who complained to you? The souls of those who died in grief? What kind of court do you belong to, that can accept souls? complaint?" The girl and Mi Duan looked at me with astonished expressions. At this time, Bai Su's voice came to my ears firmly and clearly, she only said two words: "Heavenly Court." Bai Su's voice was not very loud, but the word "Heavenly Court", like two Jiao Leis, shocked me suddenly. The court of heaven, yes, of course the court of heaven, the court of heaven. ("Heavenly Court" as a noun naturally has another meaning, but the Heavenly Court that Bai Su said at this time must mean the court in heaven, and it cannot be anything else.) (The souls who have suffered all kinds of injustices have nowhere to complain about their grievances on earth or in the human world, so they have to complain to the heavenly court.) (Assuming that the soul is a kind of energy, the energy is continuously emitted into the depths of the universe, and the energy signal is finally received by a high-level creature somewhere in the universe and translated, then their grievances are known to "God" , there will be some incredible power to help them.) While thinking quickly, I cast a knowing look at Bai Su. The girl sighed, and Mi Duan's expression was also a bit bitter: "For human beings, we can be regarded as the 'Heaven'. We understand their pain, but our ability is very limited. In the early days, we could make some visions in the sky. If you come out, you can make some people restrain themselves a little bit, and later, some catastrophes will be caused on the earth, and the victims will not be innocent people? It can’t always be snowing in the hot weather of June──” I was even more stupid when I heard this. (Ahh, Dou E was wronged, and it snowed in June!) Bai Su's feeling must be similar to mine, she also has a dazed expression. Mi Duan sighed: "We came up with the solution. Bringing those sufferings to life in front of people's eyes, in imagination, should be able to make people realize that such a thing should not happen, but it cannot be held on a large scale. , and the facts have proved that although people who saw it were shocked, in fact, it has no effect on the reduction of such things." The girl sighed again: "It's also our idea to separate the image from the sound to avoid causing too much shock. He and I—" she pointed at Mi Duan, "we will manage it separately. We know that if The unity of sound and image is something human beings cannot afford.” I hurriedly said: "Yes, I really can't bear it." Mi Duan also sighed: "We have also been in contact with those souls. It is useless to ask them to try their best to influence those in power in those suffering events." Mi Duan added: "Human beings have created a term: dream. People who have had this kind of contact experience only regard the experience as a dream. After the dream, they are still the same and are not affected at all!" I hesitated and said, "It's of no use at all?" Mi Duan said: "Yeah, isn't this kind of thing going on all the time? After all, it's human beings who make human beings suffer so much, not us alien monsters. The strange thing is that human beings have been assuming that aliens How monsters will abuse and enslave human beings, but don’t think about it, the great enemy of human beings comes from among human beings!" Listening to this "alien monster" criticizing human beings so brazenly, Bai Su and I naturally wanted to refute a few words, but we couldn't say anything, because what he said was really irrefutable. The girl sighed again: "Human beings are really strange creatures. In a single sense, the biggest enemy is himself. In general, the power to harm human beings also comes from human beings themselves." Bai Su and I had no choice but to smile wryly, and the girl let out a long sigh: "I have been mastering that terrible voice these days, look at me, am I quite different from before!" She asked Mi Duan this question, and Mi Duan said: "Of course it's different. Before, you seldom sighed, and you weren't so melancholy. It seems that those painful cries have affected you." The girl sighed again: "You are not the same, you didn't have any painful expression before." Mi Duan murmured: "This kind of...the scene of suffering will always appear in front of our eyes. After a long time, who will be happy?" The girl said: "Yeah, we should give up and let humans handle it by themselves! Humans have a saying that it is difficult for upright officials to decide housework! It seems that we can't make any changes for the people on earth, or Let them go! After we go back, we have to tell other people that there is no need to pay attention to such sad and indignant signals.” Mi Tuan couldn't help but nodded: "Yes, maybe human beings are such strange creatures. They have to endure constant suffering in order to continue their lives from generation to generation. Otherwise, they have a long history. Why would they not know how to improve and continue to live like this? Do!" Hearing this, I said weakly: "No, no, human beings are not what you imagined, it's just...just..." I originally wanted to defend mankind, but I couldn't continue in the middle of the sentence. Originally, I wanted to say "It's just a few people who always want the majority to live according to their will", and shift the responsibility to the few.But then I thought, is that just the responsibility of a few people?If the vast majority of people do not obey at all, how can a few people do evil?A small number of people can do evil, naturally the majority of people also have their own weaknesses, cowardice and obedience, can it be regarded as human virtues? There really are no words left to justify human behavior!So I didn't go on, I just waved my hand bitterly, looking very depressed. Mi Duan and the girl looked at me and smiled, as if they sympathized with my situation. I waved my hand vigorously to shake off their sympathy. I admit that human beings have deep-rooted inferiority, but I can’t say that human beings In these thousands of years, there has been no progress at all.Although there are still at least two-thirds of the earth who don't know what human rights are, there is still a third of the places where everyone knows what human rights are, like that kind of suffering , is not going to happen. Naturally, the progress is not very fast, but it is always improving. Who wants them to look at me with such sympathy! Because they aroused my disgust, when Mi Duan said something, I didn't hear it very clearly. I only heard him ask at the end: "Do you want to learn?" I didn't even think about it, so I said, "I don't want to, I definitely don't want to!" After speaking, I noticed Bai Su's expression was very surprised, and then I realized what he wanted me to learn, but I didn't hear clearly, so I refused.But the words have been spoken, and naturally they cannot be changed. Bai Su sighed: "Liu Ju was burned to death in the building because of your time-space shift." Mi Duan smiled: "Why did I harm him? As soon as he rushed into the fire pit, I transferred him. In order to punish him for being rude to me, I transferred him to a small desert. You can only leave after suffering for a few days, and if he comes to you again, you might as well explain the truth to him, but he may not believe it." I snorted: "He discovered that those were real people early on. May I ask, are the souls of those victims always in pain, and is the pain they are suffering continuing?" Mi Duan and the girl sighed in unison: "That's their own choice. They can completely wash away the pain in their lives through a certain procedure like other human souls, but they don't want to. I believe that after we decide to give up and ignore them, they will continue to radiate energy into the depths of the universe, and continue to look for heaven to appeal their grievances. Perhaps, there will be someone more powerful than us who will accept their appeals , stand up for them, and use powerful methods to make human beings change." Bai Su's voice was dry: "Maybe, but I would rather human beings continue to learn from history and change themselves." Both Mi Duan and the girl made gestures that are irrelevant. The girl is indeed very beautiful. I said, "I'm not very polite to ask you a question. Is what I see now your original body?" Mi Duan and the girl shook their heads together, and the girl said: "The shape of human beings is completely determined by the environment. The most advanced creatures on the earth can only be humans. In order to adapt to the living environment of the earth, we naturally have to Just like people." I was a little startled, and said: "Then you—" Mi Duan smiled: "Yes, not only will he know how to move the universe, but he will also change in seventy-two ways." I'm a little dumbfounded, how great is their ability?How far is their scientific civilization from ours? When I wanted to ask them, I suddenly felt sad again: what's the use of asking these? There is no doubt that their spiritual civilization is many times higher than that of human beings.Perhaps, when the spiritual civilization of human beings has progressed to the same level as them, the scientific civilization will naturally do the same. Bai Su let out a long breath: "There is only one thing I don't understand, why do you want to destroy the Wax Museum when we visit overnight?" Mi Duan smiled wryly: "That's because I was ready to give up a long time ago. If I continue like this, the painful infection will get deeper and deeper, so I don't want you to know the truth. If I continue like this, I will be punished." The feeling of sentencing, it's horrific." Bai Su nodded in understanding.Mi Duan and the girl made a rather weird and unexplainable gesture together, and then suddenly, a large cloud of shining light spots disappeared, and the two of them had disappeared. Bai Su and I stayed together for several minutes before we came to our senses.Bai Su's first sentence said: "That girl must be the one that Big Brother has a crush on. When you meet Big Brother, don't mention her." I said: "Why?" Bai Su sighed: "It's not that you don't know big brother's temper, who knows which star she came down from, why make him lovesick for nothing?" I also sighed and agreed to Bai Su's proposal.That night, and in the next few days, we were all in a very unhappy mood, and we all secretly hoped that the energy emitted by those souls into the depths of the universe would receive stronger echoes and support, but that was of course nothing more than hope. What the process is like, I can't even imagine it. The pain in the world will naturally continue, and it will last until an unknown year before it disappears.
