Earlier, the old house of the Shen family had been destroyed in a big fire.
A feeble signal, which even the most sensitive monitoring equipment couldn't capture, was emitted from the fire and didn't stop until a long time later.
The feeble signal passed through the atmosphere of the planet, the warp hole and countless celestial bodies, and arrived in the distant universe with no specific location.
In the strange universe, a black battleship was moving forward at a relatively slow pace without any destination, or in other words, it was floating. It looked like a black coffin.
The body of the black battleship had been coated with a special layer of composite materials, which could block all signals and not receive any information.
The most important room was isolated by a gravitational field.
The staff members of the Shen family on the battleship had been branded with an unbreakable mental brand; they wouldn't do anything to break the silence. If things continued like this, the battleship would be like a stone thrown out of the atmosphere and would never return to the human civilization. It would become a ghost drifting in the universe until it died or some accident occurred.
Of course, the so-called signal blocking couldn't block everything in the world. After all, many rays and particles could pass through the whole planet, like neutrinos.
Countless particles had passed through the black battleship during this ghostly voyage without any return date. However, those particles didn't carry any useful information, so they were meaningless, like real ghosts.
Nobody had expected that someone could endow the neutrinos with a special emission pattern and make them carry some information as a whole.
This achievement was based on that person's research on consciousness. Nobody in the Federation of the Milky Way knew about this until now, except for a cyborg.
The light particles passed through the high-composite materials, the super-dense coating, the super-alloy body, and the interior of the black battleship and then passed through the other side, just like they had done every time in the past.
It was because some neutrinos brought the information from the distant old house of the Shen family; it was unclear whether it was a blessing or something else.
An ordinary staff member of the Shen family was sitting in a chair, looking at the monitor screen with a dull look in his eyes.
No one was piloting the battleship, and no navigation plan had been made in advance. The universe was really vast. As soon as the battleship entered the desolate universe, the probability of being captured by a star or encountering other human spacecrafts was extremely small; it might take thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
The staff member suddenly felt a headache and held his head with both hands. Then, the chip on the back of his neck began to heat up.
With a light snap, his neck broke just like that. His head fell to the ground, like a torch falling into the clouds of the Shen family's old residence, causing an explosion with a bang.
There was a slight vibration in the battleship, and a crack appeared on the baffle of the hull.
The housekeeper walked over from the passageway and looked at the scene in front of her. After a moment of silence, she said, "Begin the self-examination. Don't miss any corner. Use your naked eye."
…
…
During the previous phase of the black battleship's Ghost Voyage, a yellow paper crane had flown out during the tidal fluctuations of the gravitational field to inform Jing Jiu, who was far away. The problem was that the coordinates were just a point.
Now, the information that the black battleship was sending out through the crack was continuous, so it could form a line that pointed straight ahead.
The information of this line appeared in the electronic maintenance shop on the Stargate Base, and was transmitted to the bracelet of another person along with the blood and ripples on the low-quality bracelet.
Tong Yan stood in the dark space. The light of the distant permanent star drew a silvery line on his body and the edge of his luggage.
He lifted his left hand and looked at the bracelet, knowing that Mr. Dan was already dead. After a moment of silence, he flew toward a nearby planet.
It was a secret hideout of the space pirates. It was said that there were fast spaceships there.
…
…
There were three large fleets in the Federation of the Milky Way, as well as the ascendants and the swordsmen in the military of various Cultivation states. The reason that the space pirates could survive until now was that the military was not interested in them, and that they had some good methods.
The spaceships of the space pirates could fly very fast, though they looked shabby, even worse than the mining spaceships of small companies.
Tong Yan didn't need the life-support system and the related auxiliary systems, so he could accelerate the speed of the spaceship to the maximum. It took him only seven days to find the black battleship.
This place was far away from any galaxy, and it was relatively dark. Even he had to observe carefully to find the figure of the battleship.
The spaceship of the space pirates started to decelerate rapidly, and a great many parts splashed out. Finally, the spaceship and the black battleship came to a standstill, looking like a small fish following the belly of a shark.
Tong Yan drifted out of the spaceship while carrying his luggage bag. As he touched the ground with the tip of his foot, the spaceship disintegrated instantly and started to burn.
Tong Yan broke through the super-strong composite baffle, the super-dense coating, and the super-strong alloy by relying on the powerful force, and rushed into the black battleship.
Following a loud boom, there was a sharp alarm and the shrill sound of the air gushing out of the battleship.
Tong Yan stood at the entrance of the cave. The burning spaceship not far away from him drew a line of fire on the edges of his body and his luggage bag.
Seeing this scene, the workers on the battleship were taken aback for a moment before they came back to their senses. They entered the Mechas as quickly as possible and started to set up a space partition.
Even though they had the most advanced technology in the Federation of the Milky Way, the resistance of the commoners was futile and meaningless when an ascended Daoist fairy man arrived.
It didn't take long for a great many people to die. Some of them were lying on the chairs, some in the Mechas, and some were lying on the ground of the passageway. No wound or bloodstain could be seen on their bodies, as if they were asleep.
The Sect Master of the Zhongzhou School had employed the most orthodox Taoist magic, which looked mild, but still killed people invisibly.
By the time the self-repairing system had cut off the space from the hull of the battleship, there was no one alive on the battleship.
The female housekeeper in black clothes sat on the ground while leaning against the door of a cabin, holding a laser gun in her left hand and an object in her right hand. She was no longer breathing, her face full of terror.
She didn't have a chance to shoot or self-destruct from the beginning to the end.
Tong Yan reached out his hand in the air. The female housekeeper opened her left hand, and the self-exploding device resembling a fitness ball flew up and landed in his hand.
He waved his hand, and the corpse of the female housekeeper slid along the wall for a dozen meters. Meanwhile, the cabin door was opened.
Walking into the dark cabin, Tong Yan smelled the disinfectant and … the odor of some liquid, as well as the gravitational field, which he didn't like.
Along with the sizzling sound of the electric current and the buzzing sound of the device starting up, the generating device of the gravitational field was turned off, and the illumination was turned on.
There was nothing in the cabin, which was clean, spacious, and deserted. There was only a metal table in the middle of the cabin, on which a basin-shaped object was placed.
Tong Yan walked to the front of the basin and saw the head.
There was only a thin layer of liquid left in the basin, and the skin was a bit curled after being soaked in the water for a long time. The head gave off a strange feeling, but it was also a bit ridiculous and miserable.
Tong Yan had been cultivating for many years and had a calm Dao Heart. Even though he had been mentally prepared, he was still shocked. He learned the etiquette of the Federation of the Milky Way reflexively and reached out his hand, saying, "Hello, I'm Tong Yan from the Center State."
Shen Yunmai looked at him with narrowed eyes, saying nothing.
It was not because he didn't want to curse; it was because he was so weak that it was impossible for him to speak.
Tong Yan understood what he meant. He fetched some nutrient solution and poured it into the basin as quickly as he could.
The solution looked like a dried flower or a kind of seaweed rubber ball that children liked to play with, which would open up after being soaked in the water for a long time.
Shen Yunmai said feebly while supporting his swollen eyelids, "Next door, the mechanical arm."
Tong Yan waved his hand to break open the alloy wall between the two cabins and grabbed the high-precision mechanical arm, connecting it to the power supply.
Shen Yunmai's eyes brightened a bit as the brainwave apparatus was activated.
The mechanical arm ran wildly in the battleship like a crazy racecar. It didn't take long for it to bring back many instruments and a large amount of medical supplies. A brand-new operating room was soon set up.
The tiny stream of water dripped down, making no sound. It was extremely gentle.
In the next moment, Tong Yan observed the most advanced brain surgery in the Federation of the Milky Way, the jaw surgery, the bionic skin replantation surgery and a dozen other related operations.
All the operations had been completed about two hours later. Shen Yunmai was still very weak. "Fairy energy," he said softly while looking at Tong Yan.
Tong Yan understood what he meant, so she released a strand of the purest fairy energy.
Shen Yunmai took a deep breath and inhaled the fairy energy through his nostrils, his eyes growing brighter.
In the next moment, he rolled his eyes at Tong Yan and scolded, "Aren't you the second smartest person in Chaotian? Why are you behaving like an idiot? Handshake … Do I have hands?! "
This was the first thing he said to his savior after he saved her from the brink of death … Tong Yan didn't get upset. Instead, she was certain that the person was Shen Yunmai and that he wouldn't die.
"What's going on?" Shen Yunmai asked.
The paper crane had flown away for many days, but nobody came. Shen Yunmai was on the verge of despair, but he had suddenly escaped from death. It was natural that he wanted to know … all the details.
"I went to the old house of the Shen family," Tong Yan said.
"Huang Mujin?" Shen Yunmai asked.
Tong Yan said, "I think he should be happy that you still remember his name."
Shen Yunmai stared into his eyes for a long time, but he didn't ask anything in the end.
Tong Yan knew what he intended to ask, but he didn't say anything.
Shen Yunmai asked Tong Yan to release another strand of fairy energy and inhaled it deeply. "I thought it would be Jing Jiu," he said gloomily while rolling his eyes.
All his hopes and imaginations about getting out of trouble were about Jing Jiu, regardless of whether he went to the old house of the Shen family to seek a chance of survival or to find the black battleship in other ways he couldn't think of. Unexpectedly, it was Tong Yan from the Zhongzhou School who had come in the books.
"Jing Jiu is going to die," Tong Yan said straightforwardly without any foreshadowing.
Shen Yunmai's reaction was the same as Cao Yuan's; he didn't believe it at all. "This is a terrible joke. That's why Bai Zao doesn't want you," he said in a mocking tone.
Tong Yan suddenly had the thought of smashing his head.
Shen Yunmai sensed the change in his mood. "It's really not funny," he said after coughing twice, "and an old friend of mine has just passed away. It's not appropriate for you to make such a joke with me."
Tong Yan said after calculating the time, "He will die in three days."
Shen Yunmai narrowed his eyes.
Tong Yan told him what had happened after Shen Yunmai was imprisoned on the black battleship, without omitting any details.
Shen Yunmai said after a long moment of silence, "Old Li … is dead."
