Chapter 113: Common Problems of Geniuses (5k)

Xiao Qingque was just very curious about what Bai Qiuning wanted to talk about with Shen Cheng alone, and why they had to avoid others, so he followed quietly, wanting to secretly eat some of the spoils.

Anyway, Shen Cheng just told her not to run around, but didn't tell her not to eavesdrop.

But she didn't expect that the melon she ate would be many times more explosive than she expected - she actually saw Shen Cheng and Bai Qiu Ning kissing.

When did these two guys secretly have an affair?

Xiao Qingque had always thought that the person who had an affair with Shen Cheng was Ruan Qingsha.

Is this a bloody love triangle?
Isn’t this too exciting?

Unfortunately, when she wanted to continue peeking, she was discovered by Shen Cheng's eyes, and she was so scared that her face turned pale.

It’s over. Will I be silenced?
Shen Cheng had already noticed that Xiao Qingque was peeking.

There would be plenty of opportunities to teach her a lesson in the future. Right now, his attention was all on Bai Qiu Ning, or rather, on what Bai Qiu Ning was telling him about the ins and outs of the Stargazing Club.

The Stargazing Club was founded a long time ago, so long that even Bai Qiu Ning, a formal member, is not sure exactly when it was founded.

All we know is that the stargazing club was founded by seven astronomy enthusiasts. Their real names are no longer traceable, so only seven mysterious stars are used as representatives.

The purpose of the stargazing club is to explore the real starry sky, but the scope of their involvement is not limited to astronomy, but also includes mysticism, archaeology, treasure appraisal, metaphysics, etc., which are all within their scope of investigation.

After listening to Bai Qiuning's story, Shen Cheng's doubts were not answered: "According to what you said, the Stargazing Club is just an ordinary club, so why would the government target you?"

Pei Mu said that there would be danger tonight and the enemy came from the government. Why would the government target such an ordinary astronomy club?

Bai Qiuning smiled slightly: "Then we have to ask the government why we are not allowed to observe the starry sky."

But Shen Cheng had never heard of the federal government issuing any order prohibiting astronomical observations.

"It's normal that you don't understand. I have something to ask you."

Bai Qiuning looked into Shen Cheng's eyes and said, "Do you think the starry sky above us is real?"

Can this be false?
Shen Cheng suddenly realized: "So your stargazing club thinks this starry sky is fake, but the government doesn't allow you to observe it?"

Bai Qiuning nodded: "You can understand it that way."

Shen Cheng couldn’t understand, he couldn’t understand that the starry sky was fake.

There are quite a few satellites in space now, including those owned by the federal government and commercial satellites launched by private individuals, as well as various astronomical telescopes.

If the starry sky was fake, it would have been discovered long ago.

Many stellar activities in the universe can be directly observed.

But this raises another question: if the idea that the starry sky is fake is nonsense, then why would the federal government ban stargazing clubs from observing the starry sky?
Either Bai Qiu Ning was lying, or the federal government was targeting the Stargazing Club for something else.

Bai Qiuning said softly, "You may not believe it, but this is the only reason. The club has been closed down and cracked down by the government many times, so the management has become so strict. I guess Pei Mu must have opened a back door for you. Otherwise, with your level of astronomy, it is absolutely impossible for you to pass the test and become a reserve member."

Shen Cheng did not feel looked down upon, because he was not interested in astronomy in the first place. He had some knowledge about it in his previous life, but he was just afraid of getting lost in the wild, so he could use the stars to identify the direction.

He asked another question: "Do you know Tianxuanxing?"

"I just told you that the Stargazing Club was co-founded by seven founders. Their names are not recorded, but they are codenamed after mysterious stars. Tianxuanxing is one of them. After the founders pass away, their successors will inherit this name, so Tianxuanxing is one of the seven highest leaders of the club now. Your question is like asking me if I know who the current president of the Federation is."

Bai Qiuning looked at Shen Cheng with some doubt: "Why are you asking me this question suddenly? Do you know Tianxuanxing?"

Shen Cheng denied it: "No, I just heard others mention it occasionally."

He didn't expect that Tianxuanxing's status in the club was so high.

No wonder he behaved like Doraemon, almost responding to Shen Cheng's requests, as if he could do anything.

On the other hand, it is a bit strange that Tianxuanxing would find me to cooperate with when I was still very weak.

However, before working with him, Tian Xuanxing had also worked with Zhang Zhiwen, so it seems that he just doesn't have any requirements for his partners.

"Okay, that's all I can tell you."

Bai Qiuning turned his head and looked towards the end of the corridor: "The manuscript is almost finished. Let's go over there and don't miss this historic moment."

Although Shen Cheng still had many doubts, he knew that now was not the time to ask more questions and could only find another opportunity another day.

He and Bai Qiuning returned to the end of the corridor.

Xiao Qingque lowered her head like a quail, not daring to look Shen Cheng in the eye, for fear that he would kill her because she had discovered his affair.

I'm also worried about the kind of pornographic story where you discover my affair and I force you to join in.

But Shen Cheng was not interested in teaching her a lesson now, his attention was all on the gate.

As time went by, the group of people who were whispering at the door quieted down, their eyes fixed on the closed door in front of them.

With his keen five senses, Shen Cheng could feel that there was someone in the room.

The other person's breathing is sometimes heavy and sometimes rapid, and his body temperature is very high. He should be in an excited state.

A picture involuntarily emerged in Shen Cheng's mind - a bald man leaning over a table piled with papers, his eyes filled with bright light, muttering to himself, and the pen in his hand constantly making calculations on the paper.

Shen Cheng finally understood why Pei Muming did not notify the man in the room to leave even though he knew there was danger tonight.

This man should be in a state of seclusion and cultivation, with a burst of inspiration. If he is forcibly interrupted at this time, it is very likely that he will not be able to return to this state, and the research that is about to be completed will be forced to be interrupted.

For some researchers, the research in their hands is a hundred times more important than their lives. If you save them by interrupting their research, they will not be grateful to you.

While waiting, Shen Cheng took out his cell phone and quietly sent a text message to Ruan Qingsha.

"Is Bai Qiuning still in the state capital?"

He still didn't believe that the woman beside him, who was as gentle and beautiful as the Jiangnan water town, was Bai Qiu Ning, so he had to find Ruan Qingsha to confirm it.

Not long after I sent the message, Ruan Qingsha replied.

"Qiu Ning said she was going on a long trip today. Did you run into her?"

"We met by chance, but her personality has become a little different, as if she has become a completely different person."

This time, it took a little longer before Ruan Qingsha replied.

"I'm telling you this because you're a friend. Qiu Ning's personality does change a little bit sometimes, a bit like she has multiple personalities. So don't be surprised if you see a completely different version of her. Maybe this is a common problem for geniuses. There are always some things that are different from ordinary people."

Ruan Qingsha's answer was beyond Shen Cheng's expectations.

I originally thought there were two Bai Qiu Nings, but I didn't expect that it was because she suffered from multiple personality symptoms.

This would explain all her strange behaviors.

But you just let this kind of patient run around like that?
Suddenly, Shen Cheng felt a finger gently scratching the palm of his hand.

He turned his head and met Bai Qiuning's smiling eyes: "Did Qingsha tell you about my situation?"

Shen Cheng put away his phone: "She asked me to take care of you."

This high emotional intelligence answer made Bai Qiu Ning reveal a gentle smile on her face, and she took the opportunity to gently hold Shen Cheng's hand.

Shen Cheng found it a little funny. He was so cold to him not long ago, but now he was so enthusiastic.

I really want to take a picture of her now, and show it to her next time I see her, to see if she still has the nerve to continue pretending to be noble.

Suddenly, Shen Cheng felt that the originally rapid breathing in the room stopped all of a sudden, and turned from a rushing river into a mountain stream, extremely slow.

A servant guarding the door seemed to sense something and quickly pushed the door open.

The group of members of the stargazing club standing at the door were all well-mannered people. They would not make loud noises or rush in rashly at this time.

However, they still couldn't help but look forward to it and peek into the room.

Soon, the servant carried out an unconscious middle-aged man from the room.

Just as Shen Cheng expected, the middle-aged man was slightly bald. Perhaps this was a common problem that geniuses could not avoid - the higher the IQ, the less hair.

He lay on his servant's back, his face pale, his lips chapped, his eyes sunken, like a traveler lost in the desert.

Seeing his exhausted look, the crowd at the door let out a small cry of surprise. "Everyone, my master has fainted due to exhaustion. I need to take him to the infirmary. The research manuscripts you need are in the room, please help yourself."

After leaving these words, the servant hurried away carrying the middle-aged man on his back.

The doorway fell silent, and the open room was like a dragon's treasure house, attracting all the brave men at the door.

Even though they were all well-mannered people, they couldn't help themselves at this moment and rushed into the room one after another, even with a sense of competition.

The room was extremely messy, but it was obvious that it was originally a study room used for research. The floor was littered with discarded manuscripts, and several trash cans were filled with crumpled papers.

There are more than a dozen blackboards hanging on the wall, filled with countless incomprehensible calculation formulas.

At least Shen Cheng and Xiao Qingque, who followed in, couldn't understand it. They looked at each other and felt that they were illiterate after graduating from college. They were so out of place in this place full of academic atmosphere.

The rest of the people were completely attracted by the messy pile of papers on the table, just like a person who has been thirsty for many days and finally sees a clear spring and can't help but want to get closer.

"Wait a minute everyone, please listen to me."

Pei Mu suddenly stood up and raised his hands: "I know you all want to see this research result that can change the world, but for safety reasons, let me take a photo for backup first, okay?"

If it were a different scene, or a different group of people, Pei Mu would definitely be beaten to a pulp if he dared to stand up at this time.

But these members of the stargazing club attach great importance to discipline and order, and they all expressed their agreement.

Pei Mu then came to the table, took out his mobile phone, and started taking photos of the research manuscripts for backup.

The others stood aside, eagerly waiting. Every time Pei Mu took a picture of a piece of paper, they would immediately take it and gather around to watch.

Shen Cheng and Xiao Qingque also joined in the fun and squeezed over to take a look. They found that they recognized every word on the paper, but when they put them together, they couldn't understand what it said.

The two looked at each other subconsciously and saw the same meaning in each other's eyes - you illiterate, if you don't understand it, don't read it!
However, this group of stargazers gathered around the manuscript paper, exclaiming from time to time, with excitement and excitement on everyone's face, as if this thin piece of paper recorded the truth of the world.

Some people started arguing with each other, while others simply lay on the ground, took out paper and pen, and started calculating and verifying the research results on the paper.

The group of people who were originally well-mannered and polite finally became as noisy as a vegetable market.

The world is essentially a giant duck, and everyone will encounter times when they can't control their emotions and start quacking.

The person who suffered the most was Pei Mu.

Because everyone else could see it, but he didn't have time to read it, so he could only quickly take pictures of the research manuscripts with his mobile phone for backup.

The screams and arguments in his ears made him burst out with the terrifying speed of his hands that had lasted for more than 50 years since he was single. He took photos and backed up all the research manuscripts in just a few minutes.

Backing up alone is not the end of the story. Pei Mu immediately opened his email and prepared to send all the photos he had taken to a certain account. Only in this way would it be safe.

But as soon as he opened his mailbox, he found that there was no network connection on his phone and the email could not be sent at all.

Pei Mu's heart sank suddenly. He knew that what he had predicted had happened.

He subconsciously looked up for Shen Cheng and opened his mouth to shout.

boom!
With a loud bang, the ceiling of the entire room suddenly exploded, and countless broken bricks and stones fell down, instantly submerging everyone in the room.

Shen Cheng's gravity was just a trial version and did not have the function of applying gravity in reverse, so he could not stop the entire ceiling from falling in time and could only use the mysterious hand for defense.

After a large amount of concrete fell down, accompanied by a few screams, it soon became quiet with only the sound of falling gravel.

Only the area around Shen Cheng was clear. Xiao Qingque hid behind him with a confused look on his face.

In addition to the two of them, Bai Qiu Ning was also fine. Shen Cheng's mysterious hand blocked it for her.

She stood there quietly, still holding a piece of manuscript paper in her hand, reading intently.

But others were not so lucky, including Pei Mu who was standing at the table at a relatively far distance.

Shen Cheng rushed over immediately and found Pei Mu in the gray dust.

He was still alive, but his head was bleeding and one of his legs was crushed by a huge piece of concrete.

Shen Cheng reached out and grabbed the concrete, and with a slight effort he lifted the piece of concrete, which weighed at least one or two hundred pounds, away.

Pei Mu ignored his injuries and said to him anxiously, "Don't worry about me. My phone has been stolen. Get it back quickly."

Shen Cheng had already sensed the presence of the enemy. He used his ability to manipulate the air and turned it into a strong wind, blowing away all the dust in the room.

A huge hole has appeared on the ceiling at this moment, and the dark night sky and dim starlight can be seen above.

The manor has a total of four floors, and all four floors were directly penetrated.

The fallen concrete piled up into uneven layers of ruins in the room.

A man with a cold face stood on the ruins, holding Pei Mu's cell phone in his hand.

He and Shen Cheng looked at each other, then exerted force with their feet.

boom!
With a loud bang, the ruins under the man's feet exploded instantly, rubble flew everywhere, and he soared into the sky like a rocket and disappeared into the dark night above the hole.

If he were to run away, Shen Cheng would have no place in the world.

He threw the injured Pei Mu to Xiao Qingque who was running over, then used his telekinesis to lift himself up and flew quickly into the night sky.

When they arrived above the manor, although it was pitch black all around, Shen Cheng could see the night as bright as day. He could see that there were a large number of armed men surrounding the manor.

The servants in the manor have already started exchanging fire with the group of armed men, and fierce gunfire continues to echo in the silent night.

Further in the night sky, there was even the sound of a helicopter.

In order to deal with the powerless stargazers in the Stargazing Club, the federal government actually dispatched the army. And the person who ran in to snatch the mobile phone was also an extraordinary person.

The federal government's attention to stargazing clubs is really unexpected.

The man who had snatched the phone had already landed outside the manor and immediately ran straight to an electronic warfare vehicle hidden in the night a hundred meters away.

He came to the tank, threw his phone into the vehicle, and informed the three soldiers who were operating the equipment inside: "Turn off the interference and send back the photos in the phone."

This electronic warfare vehicle can interfere with signals. Pei Mu’s mobile phone was unable to send emails just now because the signal was interfered.

The soldier hurriedly caught the phone and was about to shut down the jamming facility.

A powerful mental impact appeared out of nowhere and knocked the three soldiers unconscious.

The man standing next to the car subconsciously wanted to take his phone back, but he sensed the attack coming and took several steps back. Pits instantly appeared on the ground in front of him.

"Air cannon?"

The man raised his head and looked in the direction of the manor, and saw a figure flying towards him from the sky.

A huge gravity appeared out of nowhere and acted on the man.

The man's feet sank directly into the ground, but his body remained upright, not moved at all by the pressure of gravity.

"gravity?"

The man looked up at Shen Cheng who was flying above his head, with a puzzled look in his eyes: "What is your code name in the club?"

Most members of the Stargazing Club are scholars without any fighting power, but a small number of members have strong fighting power. These small number of members all have a unique code name, which does not match the strange young man in front of them.

Shen Cheng had already prepared himself to be recognized, but he didn't expect that the man didn't recognize him.

This made him feel subtly a little embarrassed.

It’s like an internet celebrity walking on the street, afraid of being recognized by fans, but in the end no one pays any attention to him.

But that's normal. He is most famous in Tailing City. Unless other people pay attention to the news on the Internet, it is basically impossible for them to know him.

"My code name is Li Yingshang Angelina Yingxueyu Hanmei..."

Shen Cheng read out a long string of words, which startled the man.

He took the opportunity to wave his mysterious hand and slapped him seven times.
