Chapter 119 Mysterious Footprints
Since Lin Ruowei stabilized the space-time energy field, life in Liuxi Village has gradually returned to peace. One night, Lin Ruowei was sorting out experimental data in the study room when Gu Yan suddenly broke in with a serious look on his face.
"Ruo Wei, there is something you must know." Gu Yan said straight to the point.
Lin Ruowei put down the book in her hand and looked at him worriedly: "What happened?"
"I found some strange footprints at the entrance of the village." Gu Yan explained, "These footprints don't look like our villagers'. The shape and size are very unusual."
Lin Ruowei immediately realized that this might be a serious problem: "We must investigate these footprints immediately to ensure the safety of the village."
Gu Yan nodded, and the two immediately took their equipment and went to the village entrance to check. They carefully observed the footprints and found that the shape and size of the footprints did not match those of the villagers, and the footprints looked very new, obviously they were left recently.
"These footprints look very new, they must have been left just now." Gu Yan analyzed, "We have to find the owner of these footprints."
Lin Ruowei frowned, feeling uneasy: “No matter who left here, we must find out why they came here.”
They followed the trail all the way through the woods outside the village and finally came to an abandoned temple. The area around the temple looked desolate and silent, as if no one had been there for a long time.
"It looks like no one has been here for a long time, but these footprints extend all the way to the temple." Gu Yan said in a low voice.
Lin Ruowei nodded and responded softly: "Let's go in and take a look. Be careful."
The two entered the temple carefully. It was filled with dust and strangely quiet. Just then, they heard a slight sound of footsteps coming from deep inside the temple. Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan looked at each other and walked towards the direction of the sound alertly.
In a corner of the temple, they found a mysterious man. He was tall, wearing a black robe, and looked very cold. When the man saw Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan, a flash of surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Who are you?" the man asked coldly.
Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan looked at him warily. Gu Yan spoke first: "We are from Liuxi Village. We found your footprints at the entrance of the village. Who are you? Why did you sneak into our village?"
The man smiled slightly, with a hint of mystery in his eyes: "My name is Han Ziqi, and I came here to find an ancient power."
"Ancient power?" Lin Ruowei frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Han Ziqi looked straight at them, with a hint of coldness in his tone: "Do you know the space-time energy field? I have been studying it, and I need more information."
Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan looked at each other, their hearts full of doubts. Han Ziqi's appearance made them feel uneasy, but also aroused their curiosity.
"Why do you want to study the space-time energy field?" Lin Ruowei asked.
Han Ziqi sighed and said slowly: "My family has been studying time and space energy for generations. We found that this power can not only travel through time and space, but also change the course of history. I hope to find this power for an unfinished mission."
Gu Yan asked cautiously: "What do you want to change?"
Han Ziqi was silent for a while, and finally spoke: "I hope to save my family. We have encountered major changes in history, and I want to use the energy of time and space to go back to the past and change everything."
Lin Ruowei felt the complexity of the situation: "The power of the space-time energy field is very dangerous. Do you know the risks of doing this?"
Han Ziqi nodded: "I know, but I have no choice. I am willing to take all the risks just to give the family a new hope."
Lin Ruowei thought for a while and finally decided to help Han Ziqi: "We can cooperate, but you must promise not to do anything that endangers the stability of time and space."
Han Ziqi nodded gratefully: "Thank you, I will keep my promise."
From that day on, Han Ziqi joined Lin Ruowei and Gu Yan's team. Together they studied the theory and application of space-time energy fields, trying to find a way to satisfy Han Ziqi's wishes without destroying the stability of space-time.
However, Lin Ruowei was still full of doubts. What was Han Ziqi's real motive? Could he really keep his promise? These questions kept her awake at night.
