Chapter 54 "The sound of the ruan falls on the gorgeous dress, the plum blossoms appear as if a

Gui Naifen, who was drinking water, saw the comments and quickly opened the official account.

Sure enough, there's a new PV, and the number of viewers is skyrocketing.

Bullet comments:

"May Ruan Mei stay on the right track, and may we play until the server shuts down!"

"If it's crooked, it's a Zisha teapot!!!"

"archeology!"

"Ms. Nguyen Mai, I would like to explore the mysteries of life with you in this silent place!"

"It's only been a few seconds since it was released! Hundreds of billions of viewers are watching online. Even the best is recovering!"

......

PV begins:

The scene opens with a light blue ink painting style of Jiangnan landscape, with bamboo shadows swaying by the window, and vigorous plum branches stretching out diagonally, pink stamens falling on the bluestone slab in the wind.

Before her, the water in the stove gently boiled, and white steam rose. Ruan Mei sat there, her long, dark hair tied up with a golden plum blossom hairpin. She wore a gorgeous dress with dark patterns, and her hand, gloved with dark ink, held a pen as she slowly wrote on a plain white letter.

Simultaneously, the original Suzhou Pingtan (storytelling and ballad singing) recitation begins (which is essentially the opera singing in the background):

"Boiling water to soothe the brows, embroidering pillow to soften the gray hair, gently warming it over a low fire."

The letter contained mostly subtle meaning, with very little deep affection.

With a stroke of the brush, the branches are depicted, and the lake water is dipped in green.

She wiped away a wisp of fine silk and jade, its icy tinkling sound like snowflakes.

All the old chapters are ashes.

Ruan Mei lowered her eyes to look at the letter and began to read its contents:

"Dear Mother, I feel as if we are meeting again upon receiving this letter."

"The plum blossoms bloomed and then faded."

"I sometimes smell loneliness in the fragrance, and it reminds me of the research we did together in deserted places when I was a child."

"A warm little house, an abundance of jubilant species and life—I will never forget that time."

The scene transitions to a desolate, white research setting, where young Ruan Mei, with her hair in two buns and wearing a plain outer garment, is protected within a transparent protective barrier.

The researchers around them were tense, facing a huge, unknown creature that was sleeping. Its body was covered with a faint blue light, and countless orange-red eyes were faintly visible in the hazy mist.

A piercing alarm sounded, and the researchers shouted in panic, "Get out of here! It's waking up!"

The researchers scattered and fled, but young Nguyen Mai stared wide-eyed at the giant creature that was slowly opening its eyes without fear.

Ruan Mei's voice-over says, "I understood the vastness of the universe far too early."

"Birth, growth, decay... marveling at the process of life is the origin of my thinking."

"I'm starting to realize that I crave something pure."

The scene abruptly shifts, with cool blue light filling a modern laboratory. A giant holographic projection displays the phantom of a life-bearing planet she has nurtured, with nebulae swirling around it.

The nurtured planet: (｡･∀･)ﾉﾞ Hi!

As an adult, Ruan Mei stands in front of the control panel, her long hair hanging down.

Ruan Mei began, "When I discovered how simple it was to even cultivate a 'planet,' I began to realize that I longed for something pure."

In the video, Ruan Mei's fingertips trace a virtual DNA double helix, with pale blue light dots floating in front of her. She continues:

"Attachment is related to the insular cortex, which controls anxiety and pain, and the nucleus accumbens, which produces desires."

"The patterns of emotions can be easily broken down; children become more obedient when they receive random rewards."

"But recently I've had some different thoughts..."

Black Tower's voice came through the screen: "Ruan Mei is a very difficult person to deal with. I contacted so many people and spent so much time and effort to finally get in touch with her!"

Screw Gum: "Every self-aware person... is the brightest star in the night sky. Logic: No explanation needed."

Black Tower: "Hey~ Ruan Mei, can you hear me? You have to show yourself!"

In the picture.

Nguyen Mai walked quietly, surrounded by colorful paint paintings.

"At first I was terrified by its appearance. It was born from a spectacle, neither resisting nor mourning. It was closest to the feeling that arose spontaneously in my childhood."

The next second, Nguyen Mai plunged into the water, and the background music became louder.

"I explore the mysteries of the universe, seeking answers that are deeper than human nature."

"I have nothing left to lose, nor anything left to gain."

"If life is nurtured, recombined, and reproduced, then we can dissect memory, regulate balance, deconstruct beauty, and reproduce immortality..."

"I will understand life, touch upon concepts, and perhaps I can..."

"To become ■■".

The scene shifts back to the landscape of Jiangnan at the beginning, with clouds and mist drifting over distant mountains, plum branches swaying gently in the wind, and petals falling softly.

Nguyen Mai stood by the window, gazing at the surging sea of ​​clouds.

"Don't worry, my dear assistant, I'll give you a 'reward'."

Ruan Mei's figure blends into the ink-wash-like scenery, and the picture finally freezes on the logo of "Honkai Impact: Star Railway", with the branches of winter plum blossoms and star trails complementing each other.

PV ended.

Bullet comments:

"Hello, Mother-in-law!"

"She was definitely a beauty even as a child! I'm so envious!"

"I couldn't understand half of it, what was he saying in all that gibberish?"

"I don't understand Korean!"

"Can you study my DNA?"

"Let's give the guy upstairs a boost, a level 8 gale—after all, I'm afraid of needles."

"Your mom..."

"Raising a planet is easy, but raising a child is difficult. Would you like to take on the challenge? I can be your assistant!"

"Get lost! Keep dreaming!"

"What are the last two characters? Why are they censored?"

"Let me guess, could it be... becoming a Genshin Impact?!"

"Kamitmhara."

"New God, Star God, my God!"

"Wouldn't it be great if I just became a planner? I could make whatever I wanted!"

"Honkai Impact: Star Railway Official (Max Level): ???"

"What does the last sentence mean? Will you give me Jiang Li (as a reward)? But I want Zhang Wenyu!"

......

Black Tower Space Station.

The two watched the PV in silence without saying a word.

Black Tower looked at Nguyen Mai strangely.

Nguyen Mai asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Black Tower: "Any ideas?"

Ruan Mei didn't know either: "It was just a thought that popped into my head automatically; it's not that exaggerated!"

Heita nodded knowingly; she often had unique ideas popping into her head too.

Very normal!

Just like her cakes, they inspire her!

"In my opinion, we should study Lin Lin instead!"

Nguyen Mai: "???"

"I feel like once we figure him out, we'll discover a lot of surprises!" Black Tower exclaimed, spreading his arms wide in an exaggerated analogy.

Upon hearing this, Nguyen Mai seemed to have thought of something.

He took out an octagonal stone with a horse imprinted on it.

Black Tower asked in confusion, "What is this?"

Ruan Mei explained, "Lin Lin sent it to me via express delivery; it contains a magical dispelling power!"

"Another strange artifact?"

Black Tower took the horse talisman, and a white light flashed.

Her slight mental fatigue vanished instantly.

This state was keenly observed by the Black Tower.

She fiddled with the talisman: "I knew he had more good stuff!"

Ruan Mei said, "I need to go to Xianzhou later to see someone off. You can come with me, and we'll go find Lin Lin."

Black Tower nodded: "That makes sense. We should also place a Black Tower doll next to him, so we won't have to run back and forth next time we need to find him!"

genius!

This genius truly is a genius!

Lin Lin, who was far away on the Immortal Ship pondering what to have for dinner that night, suddenly felt a chill.

What happened?

Does Old Mi miss me?
