Chapter 1524: Wengfaluo Si 3.6 (543)

~6 min read 1,100 words

"Yes." Sui Xing nodded slightly. "The rationality of the lighthouse is actually built on 'incomplete information.' It treats the ground as dead land and emotions as burdens. I think Night Moon made such a cold judgment not only because she sees Wengfaluo Si as a pure hidden danger, but also possibly because… information is incomplete."

"She doesn't understand Wengfaluo Si land well enough, nor does she understand the people of Wengfaluo Si, where beings capable of making star gods bleed were born. I think she may have greatly underestimated these Golden Bloodline Members."

"The night before ascending to Luo Fu Xian Zhou, the Xingzhou Train."

"…How is it, Star? First 'Pioneering' journey, how does it feel?" San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue asked eagerly.

"……" Star pondered briefly, "Very interesting."

"We still need to pay attention to safety from now on." Dan Heng reminded.

"Oh, Dan Heng teacher, we're here tonight to celebrate Star, so don't say such boring things." San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue beamed with confidence, "Don't listen to his scaremongering. Let me tell you, this young lady counts as half a 'Pioneering' expert—follow me and you'll be fine~"

Dan Heng wearily rubbed his forehead: "You call this 'being fine'?"

San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue hurriedly defended: "Well, well, that's not because I could only find guides from seven hundred years ago online!"

"It seems… you've been to many places?"

"Of course: Hot Night Capital, Kelsus Star, Technetium… counting on my fingers, this should be my."

After saying that, San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue solemnly showed the two the small notebook on the bar: "Look—Belloc Berg's notebook, I specially asked Bronya for this keepsake! She prepared many gifts for us: Bone Marrow Original Ore, Great Guardian Medal… but I only wanted this little notebook."

"In previous pioneering trips, we went to high-tech worlds—let alone paper books, even holographic projections were considered antiques. Ya Li Luo is quite different; seeing everyone record life with pen and paper, I finally understood why some still persist in making memory ledgers."

Dan Heng explained: "Just like 'calligraphy.' The deep emotions hidden in the human heart can only be awakened by this seemingly thankless effort."

"Dan Heng teacher… truly has a tiger's heart while stopping to smell the roses!"

"Well said, Dan Heng! Hey hey, you two…… why don't you quickly come ask Grandma me, 'Why do the Smoke Mystics mainly use textiles to record history'?"

Inside the Scarlet Witch Arena, Citlali drunkenly slammed her wine cup heavily onto the table, pointing and gesturing at Mavuika and Chaska before her.

"Eh……" The two exchanged glances, ultimately choosing to go along with this great shaman's nature, as Mavuika proactively asked: "So, please tell me, respected Obsidian Grandma, why do the Smoke Mystics mainly use textiles to record history?"

"Hmph hmph, let me tell you, because, because……"

Citlali wore a proud expression as she lifted her head, but just as she was about to speak, her expression suddenly froze, her flushed face instantly turning deathly pale as she bent over—

"Vomiting——!!"

"Obsidian Grandma really vomited again…… I'm already tired of saying 'again'." The restaurant owner seemed already used to it, smoothly instructing the staff to prepare cleaning.

And after vomiting, Citlali slumped over the table, completely motionless.

"Citlali got drunk again…… but what she just mentioned, indeed many travelers from other countries actively ask about it." Mavuika said.

"The textile custom issue?"

"Yes, some Fontaine visitors have mentioned before that history can be recorded with a recording device, producing very clear photos, which is very convenient, no need to spend years or even over a decade handcrafting a textile."

"But those who say such things definitely haven't visited the Smoke Mystic's sacred soil sacrificial grounds." Chaska merely smiled, "I actually agree with what Dan Heng said, when those 'thankless efforts' textiles are placed before one's eyes, that weight and emotion are indeed hard to put into words…… This might also be why Citlali is so obsessed with making textiles."

"But we also think this way. Cameras can only capture fleeting scenery, but to splice those fragments into a life, one still needs to rely on one's own hands…… Simply put, taking photos isn't enough, photos always need a place for people to display them~"

"Isn't a photo wall enough?"

"No, they're different. Moreover, this little notebook is the commemorative item from our and Star's first joint 'Pioneering'! Its meaning is thus even greater, hehe." San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue suddenly thought of something, her expression becoming even more excited, "So the next stop is the legendary 'Stellar Gala,' Pinokangni…… then, I'll definitely drag you guys for group photos, filling up the memory card!"

"I have no objection."

"Also——" San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue took down the camera from her waist, "If at any stop you're busy with other things and can't get off the vehicle, this camera will be handed to you. I don't want to miss any 'Pioneering'——you'd better practice your skills, striving to shoot as well as I do, got it?"

"……"

"At that time, I was also just half-joking. Never thought that after just two stops, we'd really be absent…… those 97 days spent alone, I was so nervous I thought I'd die here……"

"But good thing this young lady is bold and meticulous, resourceful, so I didn't end up behind Star and Dan Heng……"

Night Moon raised an eyebrow: "In the form hidden inside the camera?"

"What's wrong with that? That also counts as 'Pioneering'!" San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue proudly lifted her chin, "'The camera is my true self'—this joke, this time it actually came true!"

"Although it's very inconvenient: can't act when encountering danger; can't retort when someone says weird things; even seeing Star shoot bad films, I can't even control the shutter…… but no matter what, I still walked all the way to now with them——"

"And together with everyone, came to know this beautiful yet doomed world, to seize the first Fire Seed for the Fire Pursuit Journey——"

"And met new companions, and parted with new companions——"

"Inheriting everyone's resolve, bringing toward them the future they sacrificed everything for yet never got to see——"

"Until merging with this world's fate, rewriting the destined tragic ending, returning together with everyone to the true starry sky——only then can I, in this great endeavor named 'Wengfaluo Si'……"

"In this unprecedented great 'Pioneering,' also write down the name 'San Yue Qi Yue Yue Yue Yue Yue'!"
