Chapter 483 All living beings are equal
"What about supernatural powers?"

Luo Jun and Ailontan looked at each other, then turned to look at Xiaohui.

“I think we still have to believe in science…”

"Science?" Xiao Hui laughed. "Science is a way of understanding the world. It keeps pace with the times. Who says that supernatural phenomena that cannot be explained by science now will not be explained in the future? If you take a mobile phone or computer from five hundred years ago, it is also a supernatural phenomenon. If an objectively existing phenomenon does not conform to the current scientific theory, it means that science needs to be further improved!"

"That does make sense." Luo Jun nodded. "Then did Sister Xiaohui discover something, an objective phenomenon that cannot be explained by science at present?"

Xiao Hui glanced at Luo Jun and Ailontan: "Are you willing to believe me?"

"That depends on whether we can understand what you are saying," Luo Jun said.

"I'm just sitting around doing nothing..." Xiao Hui sighed, "My mom told you that I'm from Tianjing University, right?"

Luo Jun nodded: "Yes, Aurora is one of the best universities."

"But you definitely don't know that there is an institution hidden in Tianjing University that deals with and studies supernatural phenomena!"

"This... I haven't heard of it." Luo Jun touched his chin. Tianjing University did have an Explorer College: "Have you seen it? Or been in it?"

"I probably haven't been there..." Xiao Hui spread her hands and said, "This is just a guess from some clues I saw."

"What exactly happened?" Luo Jun asked.

"It all started four years ago when I first entered school," Xiaohui said. "When I went to register at school, I got lost on campus. I wandered around and around and somehow ended up walking into a quiet forest."

"That forest was very strange. There was no phone signal and it was hard to walk. I wandered around for a long time but couldn't find a way out. Just when I was wondering, I suddenly heard a dog barking. I turned around and saw a big dog pounce on a calico cat, biting it and shaking its head. The poor little cat thrashed around for a few times and then stopped struggling."

"I was frightened by this scene and cried out. The big dog looked up and saw me, with a fierce look in its eyes. It was about to pounce on me. At this moment, a long-haired girl suddenly appeared and scolded me. The big dog listened and turned away."

"I was so scared that I couldn't move. The girl saw me, came over, looked at me, and asked me if I was lost. I nodded, and she said her last name was Bai and she was also a freshman this year. She could lead me out of the forest, but before we left, we went to check on the cat that had been bitten."

"The cat's neck had been bitten through, blood was all over the floor, and its belly was still bulging slightly, but it was obvious that it would not live much longer. It was very pitiful. The girl sighed, put her hand on the cat's neck for a while, then got up and took me away. I don't know if it was an illusion, but I felt that the cat's breathing seemed to have become stronger."

"Later, the girl took me out of the forest, and I successfully completed the freshman enrollment. But before I could thank her, she disappeared. Then, a few days later, I saw the calico cat that was bitten to death on campus..."

"Are you sure it's the same one?" Luo Jun asked.

"Yes, because the pattern on the injured cat's face is very unique, as if it has two small mustaches. I don't think I would mistake it." Xiao Hui said, "But at that time, it seemed that the cat would not survive the injuries. It has only been a few days and it is alive and kicking. It doesn't make sense no matter how you think about it..."

"What's even more bizarre is that in the following years, I never saw the girl surnamed Bai again. She said she was a freshman like me, but I went to various departments of Tianjing University to ask around and there was no such person. It was as if she had disappeared from the face of the earth."

"Even if that's the case, it doesn't mean it's some supernatural power." Luo Jun said, "Maybe the girl dropped out of school, maybe she was lying at the time... As for the cat, maybe you remembered the wrong pattern? What does this have to do with the supernatural research institute you mentioned?"

"I thought so at first..." Xiao Hui held her chin and smiled, "But just last year, I saw that girl again."

"Oh?" Luo Jun was a little surprised and asked, "How did you meet?"

"I don't remember the details very clearly." Xiaohui recalled: "It was a weekend. My classmates and I went to climb a mountain in the suburbs of Tianjing. We encountered a landslide and were swept away. One of my classmates died on the spot. The others, including me, only suffered minor injuries and were fine when we woke up in the hospital."

"At that time, in addition to feeling sad for the classmates who died, we were also very lucky to have escaped. My mother came to Tianjing to see me and was so scared that she lost her mind. She was a superstitious person and thought it was unlucky for me to stay in Tianjing. It was from that time that she insisted that I return to Ningdong for development after graduation."

"I see..." Luo Jun nodded: "What does this have to do with the woman surnamed Bai you met?"

Xiao Hui sighed: "Other people can't remember anything about what happened after they were in danger, but I have retained some memories."

"In my vague memory, my lower body was crushed by the rubble and was bloody. I was just breathing. At this time, a girl came to me and put her hands on me. I felt a warm current spread throughout my body, and my numb lower body began to regain consciousness... I used up my last bit of strength to see the girl's face. It was the girl named Bai from that year!"

"You mean..." Luo Jun narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Hui: "She is treating you?"

Xiao Hui nodded: "She didn't use any equipment, just her bare hands, and treated a serious injury that was enough to cause death!"

"Are you dreaming?" Luo Jun already had a guess in his mind. He took out his mobile phone and checked the news about the landslide in Tianjing.

"I've had this guess too..." Xiao Hui nodded: "Maybe because of the cat incident, I subconsciously believe that the girl surnamed Bai has some special abilities, so I had such a dream."

"But in that memory, besides her, there was also a man who appeared. The girl called him Professor Lu... I am very sure that I have never seen this Professor Lu before, and normally I should not dream about him, but the strange thing is that in my memory, the face of this Professor Lu is very clear..."

"Just when I was wondering, teachers and classmates from school came to visit us in the hospital, and I found that Professor Lu was standing in the crowd!"

"This person who just appeared in my dream and whom I have never seen in real life, just appeared in front of me!"

"Did he introduce himself?" Luo Jun asked, "Is his last name Lu?"

"I don't know..." Xiao Hui shook her head: "No one introduced him. He just stood at the back of the crowd. He looked like an unrelated person who just came to join in the fun. I was very scared at the time and didn't dare to ask more questions... After I recovered, I asked about his background, but no one knew him. The teacher who came to visit at that time said that he was arranged by the dean of the college and asked him to help with some physical work. He thought he was a school worker, so he didn't ask more questions." At this point, Luo Jun was basically sure that this Professor Lu should be from the Explorer College of Tianjing University. He was the person in charge of the rescue site at the time. Afterwards, he followed the visiting team to the hospital to confirm the status of the injured. According to convention, the memories of the rescued survivors will be cleared, and no one will remember the existence of Professor Lu. But for some reason, Xiao Hui's memory was preserved, and she actually recognized this Professor Lu.

"Do you know what this means?" Xiao Hui continued to put her hands on the table and continued, "This shows that my dreams are real! That girl named Bai really saved me, using a supernatural healing ability that I can't understand!"

"She once said that she was also a student of Tianjing University, and she called the mysterious man Professor Lu, which means they should both be from Tianjing University! This means that there should be a mysterious major in the school that we students don't know about... or it should be called a mysterious institution that studies this kind of supernatural power!"

"It does sound a bit scary..." At this time, Luo Jun had already found relevant reports in April last year. At that time, he had not even come into contact with Yuan Qi...

Afterwards, Luo Jun opened the practitioners' forum, searched for keywords, and quickly found related posts.

Unlike the landslide reported by the mass media, the forum clearly stated that this was a disaster caused by a fight between practitioners. The culprit was the Mountain Shaking Ghost, who was ranked fifth on the wanted list. When the Tianjing branch was trying to capture him, it triggered a landslide, causing many casualties among the mountaineering tourists.

The Mountain Shaking Ghost? Luo Jun remembered that this guy was still on the wanted list, and the bounty had reached 30 million Aurora coins, or five Class A merits. With this value, he was a wanted criminal all over the world.

"So you believe it?" Xiaohui looked at Luo Jun and Ailontan with some surprise.

"Although this matter is a little unbelievable, but you are well-reasoned and logical, I think it is very credible." Luo Jun nodded and commented: "I think we should have awe of all unknown things."

Hearing Luo Jun say this, Xiao Hui seemed relieved: "I have mentioned this to people more than once, but most people think I am making up stories, or that I have read too many anime novels... You are the first person to give a positive comment."

"Have you told anyone else?" Luo Jun asked, "Have you posted anything related to this online?"

"This is also evidence that I believe in the existence of supernatural organizations." Xiao Hui finally met an interested audience, and she also became interested: "I once posted a post on the forum, but when I checked again the next day, it had been deleted... It was a section where people often discussed supernatural phenomena. Others could post more outrageous information without any problem, and they could leave comments and discuss it at will, but mine was not allowed..."

"No one came to you after that?" Normally, if Yuan Xiu noticed this situation, he would come to erase your memory.

"I didn't use my real-name account. I posted it in a black internet cafe far away from the school. The content was also written from the perspective of a tourist who witnessed the disaster. There is no way to link it to me as the person involved."

"That's quite cautious..." Luo Jun nodded. "Then the question is, what do you think about this possible supernatural phenomenon?"

"As for my thoughts, there's nothing special about them..." Xiao Hui sighed, "It's just that after experiencing life and death, I learned the truth behind the world, and I feel that everything around me is meaningless."

As she spoke, she propped her chin up and looked out the window: "Look at those busy people coming and going. The wealth, achievements, and even their lives they pursue may be meaningless in the eyes of those superpowers who are superior to ordinary people."

"Everyone is born equal. This statement may be a little naive, but we are still willing to believe it. At least, when fame, wealth, and birth are removed, from a biological point of view, we are indeed equal."

"But if after losing all external conditions, some people still have power that others do not have, then this so-called equality will be completely gone..."

After saying that, Xiaohui sighed deeply. Luo Jun could feel that she seemed a little depressed because of this experience.

"I don't think so." Luo Jun smiled and shook his head.

"Mice are born to be preyed upon by cats. Animals are not naturally as smart as humans... If all these creatures give up hope because of the so-called inequality among all living things, then in the end, there will only be one most powerful species left in the world."

"But mice and cats are not the same species!" Xiaohui retorted.

"Then how can you be sure that ordinary people like us and those with super powers are the same race?" Luo Jun asked with a smile: "If these so-called supernatural powers have existed since ancient times, does that mean that the history of people with super powers is as long as that of ordinary people like us?"

"For so many years, people with super powers have been coexisting with us humans, and according to what you said, they even tried to rescue you after the disaster... Does this mean that ordinary people like us are also meaningful and even indispensable in their eyes?"

"The meaning of ordinary people?" Xiaohui blinked.

Luo Jun nodded: "Once, humans were just an ordinary part of the food chain, but after a long period of evolution, we finally relied on our wisdom and tools to defeat those once invincible beasts and became the masters of the world."

“All beings may not be born equal, but fate is not unchangeable!”

After hearing this, Xiaohui's eyes lit up, and she seemed no longer as lifeless as before.

Luo Jun secretly sighed. As an orphan who had just gained power for more than half a year, Luo Jun could understand Xiao Hui's thoughts. Ordinary practitioners were fine, but those who had reached the peak of concentration, or even the Immortal Realm, were also human beings, but they possessed magical abilities and even the power to destroy the world.

Even Luo Jun himself was able to have the power he has today because of his good luck and the dice of heaven.

Hard work is important, but what really determines the final achievement is often factors other than hard work.

But this reality is not something Luo Jun can change. At least for now, the only thing he can do is to comfort the girl in front of him.

"Thank you for chatting with me for so long." Xiao Hui smiled gently: "Cousin, my opinion of you has changed a little."

"Oh, Sister Xiaohui, I'm flattered!"

As they were talking, the waiter brought the drinks and desserts that the people ordered. Luo Jun picked up the cup and just put it to his mouth when suddenly there was a huge earthquake and the hot milk spilled out!
