Five Frozen Centuries

Upon seeing that Wei Huo was engrossed in reading, Ye Yunxiao could not help but say, “Didn’t you say you could not understand it? By the way, since you can understand it, don’t you have any special thoughts?”

Wei Huo asked curiously, “Do you have any special thoughts?”

Ye Yunxiao pointed to the other notebooks and said, “I’ve studied these ancient books for a long time. Through the evolution of the words in them, I’ve determined that the author’s lifespan should have been at least 100 years by the time the last book was finished. Besides, the last few books were not written with a pen. They were written using the imposing aura to control the ink.”

Wei Huo picked up the notebook he had just read. After examining it closely, he nodded and said, “That’s really possible!”

Ye Yunxiao added, “These probably include the first half of the author’s life. First, her youth, and then her self-reflection after coming of age. Following that, she was tortured for a long time, which was followed by self-struggle and finally soul sublimation.”

Wei Huo scratched his head. “Really? Lend me the books. I’ll see if I can read between the lines.”

Ye Yunxiao seemed to worship the authors of the ancient scrolls and love them very much. However, other than him, Wei Huo was the only one who could understand these words. Who knew if Wei Huo might have a new understanding of them? Even if he did not, they could study these ancient scrolls together.

Wei Huo did not say much. He felt that he should finish reading the diary first.

The gaps in the diary were huge. The author jumped between days, weeks, or even months.

Soon, Wei Huo read about the author’s second semester in Year Two. There was a sudden twist in the story. The school seemed to have taught a water learning mode. It had then begun teaching a group learning mode. Eight people in a group could learn from each other, help each other, and improve together.

This teaching model had arranged for students of different subjects to help and improve together.

Interestingly enough, the author of the diary had been in the same group as Li Xiaoyue.

Wei Huo thought, Although I was in Class 122, I did not attend the same school as you guys. I don’t have a memory of this at all.

From that day onward, the content of the diary changed. It was all about Li Xiaoyue.

“On the 10th of November, I realized that I liked Li Xiaoyue. Unfortunately, Li Xiaoyue seemed to like the tall, rich, handsome guy who had just arrived. That tall, rich, handsome guy liked to join our group too, although he was annoying when he constantly borrowed things from me.”

Wei Huo was confused.

“How dramatic!” Wei Huo could not help but say.

Ye Yunxiao was confused. “What do you mean? Why is it dramatic? Did the text mention any drama? Is it like a Shakespearean drama? Anything special about it?”

Wei Huo was speechless.

What kind of weird brain circuit is he having?

Wei Huo explained, “It’s dramatic because it’s such a contrived and cliched story.”

Ye Yunxiao did not understand. “Then you can just say it’s cliched. Why are you talking about drama? Did any actors wrong you?”

Wei Huo was silent for a while. “You’re right. The humans are at fault.”

At the mention of humans, Ye Yunxiao was suddenly interested. “Speaking of humans, I made an important discovery thanks to this book. Take a look at the middle page.” He flipped to page 70.

Wei Huo read the content of the diary.

January 3rd, 2017: “If there are souls in this world, does that mean that I could continue living in the form of a soul after I die? In that case, I would be free and unfettered by physical bindings.”

Wei Huo frowned. Are you trying to kill yourself?

However, Ye Yunxiao pointed at those words and said excitedly, “This is proof that humans evolved into Gods. I personally believe that Gods evolved from ancient times. Look at our divine texts. Although there are many lines, it is also a solid idea. This means that our God is unfettered. Besides, in the human language, God means spirit. That’s why I believe that humans abandoned their bodies and became souls. After countless years of evolution, they became the Gods they are today!”

Wei Huo took a few looks at Ye Yunxiao. Different cultural backgrounds and knowledge systems would make people understand different things when reading the same essay.

Wei Huo quickly flipped through the previous diary pages and realized that the author had fallen in love or something like that. It was a classic, timely, solid relationship.

Since the two men were good friends and the two women were good friends, they were connected like a square-shaped antenna. That way, four triangles would form and a complicated hieroglyphical relationship problem would be created. If there were five of each of them, a more complicated three-dimensional geometric relationship problem would be formed.

This was how school rom-com was born!

Bullsh*t! What kind of reward was there for me, Wei Huo? I did not enjoy much of my youth in high school. I only had endless test papers, practice questions, and practice books.

Wei Huo wiped the sweat off his forehead and quickly opened a math notebook.

Let me study two math problems to calm down.

However, the moment he opened the notebook, Ye Yunxiao said excitedly, “You noticed it too? The words in this ancient notebook are completely different from the words in the other ancient notebooks. The content is very complicated. It seems to be an ancient scientific research book written by another person.”

Ye Yunxiao seemed to like researching human language as much as the Wild Giant. Wei Huo did not know where he had gotten those notes, but he was concerned about Ye Yunxiao’s Epic-ranked conjecture. Was he a human who had yet to experience the time halt? Or had he entered the Epic rank before the time halt? Was he perhaps the God who had created the game world?

At that thought, Wei Huo tried to persuade Ye Yunxiao. “It would be better if you didn’t continue your research. These ancient books are probably what has made your life pathetic today.”

Ye Yunxiao was confused. “Why?”

Wei Huo said, “You know too much!”

Ye Yunxiao was speechless.

After their conversation, Wei Huo left Ye Yunxiao’s residence. He walked out of Ye Yunxiao’s residence and flew into the sky. He then realized that Ye Yunxiao’s door was stuck against a long wall. There was only one street behind the wall.

Is that a door for a robot cat?

It seemed like the Divine Realm was not a three-dimensional space. It was a four-dimensional space folded in by multiple three-dimensional spaces. The door looked more like a portal. One would be transported to another space upon entering it.

For example, in some RPG games, the buildings in the big maps were only portals. When one walked through their door, one would be transported to another small map. That would prevent slower loading and operating a large map. However, loading every building would be troublesome.
