Chapter 005 At least it freezes fast enough(1/2)
Lu Xuan thought for a moment and said: "There are medicines on the spacecraft to supplement trace elements, but according to your description, the old man should be suffering from physical failure. It is probably too late to supplement nutrition now."
Gu Wuyou was disappointed: "So you can't cure it?"
It was better to carry the master on his back and hurry up, so as to fulfill his last wish.
"There is a solution that is not a solution."
Lu Xuan ran to the console and made a few clicks. The lights around him no longer flickered, and the red "warning" text disappeared.
"The spaceship is ruined." Lu Xuan said with a stinking face, "I thought you also had a spaceship, and if you put two piles of rubbish together, you might be able to make a usable one, but it's a pity... forget it, you don't want to tell you this.
Understand."
Gu Wuyou smiled: "Who says I don't understand? I just pick up trash and turn it into treasure. How do you think my master and apprentice have been here all these years?"
"I thought you could... well, it doesn't matter if you don't understand. At least it looks pleasing to the eye and is a good target for complaints. The spaceship cannot be repaired, but it is not a big problem to turn off all functions and keep only the dormant cabin running."
Gu Wuyou nodded thoughtfully: "It makes sense."
"Pfft, do you know what a dormant chamber is?"
Gu Wuyou knew that he was just following Lu Xuan's words and pretending to be sophisticated - this is one of the basic skills of being a gangster.
Lu Xuan led the two Taoist priests through the corridor, opened a door and walked in.
"This is the dormant warehouse."
Lu Xuan pointed to a translucent... um, coffin-like object in the room. Regardless of whether Gu Wuyou could understand it or not, he said to himself: "Hyperspace jump technology is not yet perfect, and only the best explorers dare to try it -
-like me."
She smiled self-deprecatingly.
"This is also the reason why the spacecraft crashed. It's good that the hyperspace jump into the atmosphere didn't directly explode into pieces."
Gu Wuyou was not interested in hyperspace jumps or atmosphere. He just wanted to know how Lu Xuan planned to cure his master's illness.
"Can the dormant warehouse cure the old man?" He brought the topic back.
"It can't be cured." Lu Xuan shook his head and said, "You look quite smart. Guess what the dormant chamber is used for?"
Gu Wuyou asked tentatively: "Bring a word for sleep, for sleeping?"
Although it is quite scary to think about sleeping in a coffin.
Lu Xuan: "Hibernation is much more complete than sleeping. Almost all human body functions stop, which can greatly extend life. Before the emergence of hyperspace jumps, hibernation chambers were an important tool for interstellar travel. After all, in the vast universe, any two planets are often hundreds of miles apart.
Thousands of light years..."
"etc."
Gu Wuyou interrupted her: "What does planet mean?"
"This is complicated to explain. Are you sure you want to hear it now?"
"Okay, continue."
"Hyperspace jump technology is not perfect yet, so the spacecraft still carries a dormant chamber. Of course, I have never used it. I was very disappointed when something happened after only three jumps. Back to the topic, I can't cure Lao Dao's disease, but he can enter
Sleep state."
Gu Wuyou seemed to have some realization: "When the body's functions stop, is it just a case of feigning death?"
"Absolutely." Lu Xuan nodded, "When you are able in the future, wake him up and help him treat him."
Gu Wuyou smiled bitterly: "Where can I get the ability to cure diseases..."
"You're still young, it's not too late to start learning now. According to you, the doctor doesn't like him, and only a monk can do something about it - then you become a monk."
"Me? Be a monk?" Gu Wuyou pointed to his nose.
"Are you nostalgic for your identity as a Taoist priest?"
Gu Wuyou: "It's not a question of whether I will stay or not. Do you think monks are fried dough sticks and anyone can do it? Maybe the threshold for cultivation in your world is low, and we in China are really different."
Becoming a monk in a cultivation sect is what most Chinese people desire.
However, this requires talent and even more opportunity.
Talent is a hard indicator. If you don't have enough talent, it will be a waste of sect resources. Don't even think about it. Opportunity is just luck. If you have talent but no chance, it's all in vain.
The Shenxu Sect has no method, and Gu Wuyou has never practiced before, so he naturally doesn't know what his talent is. As for the chance... He feels that he must be seriously lacking. If he is more lucky, he can be tricked into becoming a disciple by Kong De?
Comte was about to speak but stopped.
Noticing the master's expression, Gu Wuyou waved his hand and said: "We will talk about the treatment later. The first priority is to ensure that the old Taoist cannot die. Master, what do you think?"
Conde was confused for a long time.
Finally nodded and agreed: "I will listen to you."
Gu Wuyou couldn't understand the old Taoist's dilemma. Who would want to die if he could live? Maybe he would never be able to cure his master in his whole life, but fake death was almost the same as real death. There was still a slight chance of resurrection in fake death. How should he choose and still be confused?
Lu Xuan reached out and pressed a few times, and the sleep chamber opened.
Gu Wuyou helped Kong De lie down.
Lu Xuan said: "I'm ready to start the process."
"Wait a minute." Kongde stopped, "Wuyou, please listen to my teacher's advice. Let's quit being a Taoist priest. If possible, become a monk."
"Huh?" Gu Wuyou never expected that Master would say this.
It was already surprising that he supported his apprentice to return to secular life, but now he actually advised Gu Wuyou to become a monk, which seriously conflicted with the Taoist's three views.
"I want to live a few more years as a master." Comte smiled sarcastically, "You can only help me as a monk. As a master, I count on you."
So it turned out to be the case, Gu Wuyou suddenly realized.
All living things cherish their lives, but Taoist priests are most afraid of death. Small life is more important than the three views.
The master does not want to die, so it is his duty as a disciple. The reason why the Shenxu Sect is regarded as his home by Gu Wuyou is because he regards the master as his only relative - although now he knows that the old bastard lied to him, and he actually has a family.
parents.
But again, monks are not fried dough sticks, you can do it if you want to?
Gu Wuyou: "Talent aside, your apprentice is afraid that he won't have that kind of luck..."
"How can you be sure if you don't try it?" Kongde sighed, "I thought that there was an immortal in this immortal boat, but at worst, it was an expert monk, so you were chosen by him and accepted into his sect, but..."
Gu Wuyou couldn't understand again.
It turned out that the master had this idea, and Gu Wuyou was very touched - provided that he didn't relapse into his old habit of lying to his apprentice.
The question is where did he get the confidence that a god or an expert would accept him as his disciple?
Eighteen is not too old. It is actually past the best age to get started in cultivation, unless he has an amazing talent - which is obviously unreliable. Even if Gu Wuyou is really a genius in cultivation, an experienced Taoist with no cultivation will not be able to tell.
"Anyway, if you have the opportunity to practice under your master, don't hesitate. It's up to you whether your master can wake up or not." Kongde closed his eyes and said, "Let's get started."
Lu Xuan looked at Gu Wuyou, who nodded.
Lu Xuan pressed a button, and the top cover of the dormant chamber closed. Gas spurted out, and Kong De was frozen at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Gu Wuyou: "Hibernation... means freezing when you close it?"
Lu Xuan: "You try freezing one? At least the dormant warehouse freezes quickly enough. Even if you had the ability to transport the old man to the Antarctic, he wouldn't be frozen so quickly."
Gu Wuyou was confused: "Antarctica should be the hottest, right?"
"...You and I, as natives, can't explain it!" Lu Xuan became impatient, "In addition, the operating principle of the dormant chamber is very complicated, and it is not a simple frozen salted fish. If a person is frozen, the liquid in his body will freeze, and he will definitely die."
don't know?"
Gu Wuyou's face was full of admiration: "You know so much."
Lu Xuan: "Of course, I can be considered as traveling through time. As a native, you have the opportunity to make friends with time-travelers, so just enjoy it secretly."
"It's time for me to go." Gu Wuyou glanced at the master for the last time.
Lu Xuan: "Wait a minute, I'll clean it up."
Gu Wuyou: "Huh? Do you want to go with me?"
Lu Xuan said confidently: "I have to find a guide anyway. You look very pleasing to the eye, and you make jokes from time to time. It's just you."
"Then what should my master do?"
"Only a lunatic would guard a pile of garbage... Don't get me wrong, I didn't say your master, I said the spaceship. As for the veteran, you don't have to worry, the spaceship uses nuclear energy, and the dormant cabin can keep running for at least several decades."
Gu Wuyou felt it was inappropriate: "That's what I said, leave the master here alone, in case someone comes in and makes trouble..."
Lu Xuan disagreed: "Who would be interested in a pile of garbage? Besides, do you think the spacecraft is so easy to enter? I didn't take the initiative to open the hatch earlier, so you two had to bow. I'm not looking down on you natives, the indicator light can do it
Treat it as a treasure, with your level of technology, it will be useless in another thousand years."
Gu Wuyou's face turned red.
The master said that the cabinet was filled with fairy treasures, and Lu Xuan obviously heard it. Although Gu Wuyou didn't agree at the time, he actually quite agreed with it in his heart.
The problem is that this so-called spaceship is right at the entrance of his village.
Laohuai Village suffered heavy losses, who knew they wouldn't dismantle the spaceship in anger to vent their anger? They dragged Lao Dao out of the coffin, no, the dormant warehouse, buried him as a frozen salted fish, and then resurrected him.
To be continued...
