Chapter 829

Deeply influenced the development of the Shenzhou civilization...

Asta was attracted by the description in the "Blue Bird" file, and images couldn't help but pop up in her mind, one after another, connected to each other.

A blue bird fluttered out from a book, its body wrapped in a blue-white bright light, making it impossible to see its specific appearance.

It swam and soared in the sea of stars, riding the wind of particles escaping from stars, playing among the stars, occasionally piercing through the atmospheres of planets, visiting one world after another.

On a spring morning, before the first ray of sunlight had arrived, the ancestors of humanity had already left their houses to work in the fields.

Just at this moment, a dazzling blue-white light appeared on the horizon, shaped like a bird, bright as the great sun.

The villagers stopped their work, one after another prostrating on the ground, viewing this scene as the descent of a god, praying for a good harvest, praying for rain, praying for no disasters.

Scholars and poets wielded their brushes and ink, writing poems and painting pictures, depicting the elegant posture of the Blue Bird, chanting its mystery and beauty.

Inside the imperial palace, the Emperor closed his eyes in contemplation, the ministers discussed what this meant, and the diviners responsible for predicting good and bad fortune interpreted this strange sight using various methods.

Her thoughts gradually withdrew from her imagination, and Asta's interest in the "Blue Bird" became even more intense.

"What exactly is the 'Blue Bird'? It couldn't really be a giant bird that glows, could it..."

Thinking of this, Asta smiled and shook her head; this was not impossible, as life forms in the galaxy are diverse, and the miracles belonging to life are countless.

Not to mention anything else, just the biological experiments Ms. Ruan Mei did on the space station had already overturned Asta's understanding of life.

To some extent, what the "Blue Bird" actually is might not be important.

What is important is that it shifted the gaze of the human ancestors who were prostrate on the earth from their day-to-day labor and survival to the brilliant sea of stars.

Or perhaps, the awe and longing for the starry sky burst forth at that moment, and it was unstoppable.

Asta always believed that when a civilization longs for the starry sky and the vast universe, it will not be satisfied with its home planet and will inevitably spread its civilization across the entire galaxy, and even the entire universe.

There is no doubt that the current state of the Foundation confirms this idea from the side.

Asta suppressed her fluttering thoughts and seriously continued to read the subsequent files.

However, the subsequent content made her doubt for a moment whether her "Synesthesia Beacon" had malfunctioned.

The content within was, to her, almost like a heavenly book!

【Record Number - Anomaly Ninety-Nine】

【Record Category - Charm -】

【-Classic-】

【The Blue Bird is a spiritual bird. It rises at dusk, lingers among the stars, and rests at the Hour of the Rat.】

【-History-】

【The Blue Bird dwells in the Chu region; when spring arrives and the Geng star rises, it rises to patrol the sky, stopping only at the Hour of the Rat. When summer begins, it does not appear again, and is seen again the following spring.】

【Its twin wings are blue-white, its body glows as bright as the morning star, and its tail flickers as clearly as blue flames.】

【When it rises, purple energy must be seen, the energy piercing through ninety thousand miles and ascending; it roams freely among the stars, joyful as a swallow or sparrow.】

【The people of Chu found it strange, believing it to be the messenger of the Queen Mother of the West, leaving Kunlun in the morning and sleeping in Penglai in the evening; it is an auspicious sign.】

【Every dusk, the people of Chu vied to look at the sky to find it.】

【Once, a skilled archer named Yang Youji prepared a strong bow and sharp arrows to strike it, but the Blue Bird soared high above the clouds, and the arrows fell when their force was spent, ultimately gaining nothing.】

【Over time, the people of Chu mastered the method of observing the stars, dividing the celestial stars into twenty-eight mansions, and ordered the Left Historian to oversee the instruments of celestial observation.】

【The flow of celestial time was thus determined by star observation.】

【When asked, they would say: The Blue Bird is a spiritual messenger; when the Blue Bird rises, the message of Heaven is transmitted.】

【The message of Heaven is the celestial phenomena; when the solar terms differ, the changes in darkness and light differ.】

【In the fourth year of King Huai of Chu, Qu Ping was appointed as the Left Minister of Chu.】

【At that time, the Blue Bird appeared frequently, and everyone thought it was a good omen.】
