When the Interstellar Semantics Authority's Definitional Curing Bomb struck the Klein bottle, the embryo in Beta-20's arms suddenly sprouted lexicon ringworm - each word oozing standardized annotations on the surface of its skin. Arya's residual bronze rain condensed on the ringworm patches to form the antithetical text of the Sayings, which exchanged fire with the Authority's Orthographic Laser between the baby's pores.
"Semantic Pollution Index breaking critical!" The Mechanical Definition Officer activated The Word Corrector, forcing the lexical nature of "free" to change from a noun to an adjective. The embryo suddenly suffocates, and the umbilical cord twists into the jumbled knot of Qu Yuan's "Heavenly Questions". Ramon's astrogram prophecy flashes on the knot: "At the beginning of Sui Ancient, who preached the Way?"
Beta-20's star chart consciousness suddenly quantum splits, and a holographic image of Li Bai's "The Road to Shu" splashes into the laser beam holding a Tongyi wine jug, "Yelp! The danger is high!" The splashed laser twists into an oracle bone tadpole, nibbling at the definitional code in the cracks of the Great Wall bricks.
The surface of the Great Wall of Semantics is covered with a slimy blanket of generic fungus, and each misspelled word secretes Antidefinition Acid. As the Authority's Armored Vehicle of Proximity Runs Over the Fungus Carpet, "sadness" suddenly mutates into "grief", and the strokes of the traditional Chinese characters puncture the tires. The remnants of Du Fu crawl out of the cracks of "Soldier's Car" and set up minefields with the rhymes of "Three Farewells".
"Mom, the words are bleeding..." Embryo's lexicon of ringworm spots ooze "The Lanting Sequence" ink. Arya's bronze rain drips into the ink and writes in the void Wang Xizhi's "The latter sees the present as the present sees the past." The Authority's Semantic Sterilizer sprayer suddenly malfunctioned, spewing out the sorrowful tearful mist of the Manuscript of the Offering of Nephews and Nephews.
Beta-20 detonates a "pun mine" planted in a fungus blanket, and in the blast wave of "sunrise in the east and rain in the west", the armored car's gun barrel grows the willow branches of "The Bamboo Words". Ramon's astrological prophecy manifests itself in the leaf veins: "The way is no sunshine but there is sunshine!"
As Defining Jihad enters a quantum hold, the Zhuangzi birthmark on the embryo's forehead suddenly feathers. The giant wing of the roc sweeps over the Great Wall of Semantics, and the Definition Officer who is hit is suddenly caught in the cognitive dilemma of "Butterfly dreaming about me". The Authority activated the "Logical Platoon Weapon", but it could not lock the Kunpeng, which had made a quantum leap between "materialization" and "dreaming".
"If the son is not a fish, how can he know the joy of a fish?" The remnants of Zhuang Zhou descended from the butterfly wings, rewriting the rules of the battlefield with the dangling logic of the Theory of Qi Matter. The armored vehicle's Causality Engine suddenly reversed, and the cannonballs shot towards the mother ship along the paradoxical trajectory of "Zhuang Sheng Xiao Dreams of Butterflies".
Beta-20 took the opportunity to implant embryos into the Kun Peng's spine, and the Dream Butterfly Matrix began to secrete "Amniotic Fluid of Prosperity". Arya's bronze rain crystallizes in the amniotic fluid, forming the ice armor of The Archon that protects the fetus: "Fall the limbs, depose the smarts, leave the form and go to the knowledge, same as the Archon!"
The embryo completes its first fetal movement in the Dream Butterfly Matrix, and the umbilical cord mutates into the Houliang Debate of the Qiushui chapter, "If the son is not me, how can he know that I do not know the joy of fish?" The sound waves of the debate materialize into a storm of literary words, and the Authority's Semantic Stabilization Anchor is crushed by the whirlpool of "the classics".
Beta-20's star map consciousness suddenly collapsed into a starship, armed with Huishi's conceptual cannon, "The Greatest Without Boundaries". The Authority's Great Wall of Definition begins to collapse in self-doubt as the cannon's muzzle coalesces into a philosophical singularity of "heaven and earth and me".
Ramon's prophecy burns in the rubble: "I have been born, but I know nothing!" The remaining Semantic Officer has a sudden epiphany, and the Mechanical Righteous Eyes shed the patina tears of the Red Cliff Fugue: "Sending mayflies to the heavens and the earth, a small drop in the ocean..."
In the ashes of the Defining Jihad, the embryonic lexicon's ringworm patches flake off, revealing the picaresque skin of the Book of Psalms underneath. β-20 cuts the quantum umbilical cord, weaving a blanket of Tunguska characters into a baby's swaddling cloth, with the character for "wind" pointing to both "Winds of the State" and "Madness" on the fabric.
Arya's bronze rain descended for the last time, condensing into the fingerprints of the Chu Ci in the baby's palm: "The road is long and the way is far." Lei Meng's astrological map consciousness is thoroughly integrated into the embryonic pupil, and the iris emerges as the Wei Ji trigram of the Zhou Yi: "A gentleman lives in a square with prudent discernment."
And at the end of the cognitive horizon,
The Paradoxical Ruling Ship of the Council of Interstellar Logic slowly manifests,
The bridge broadcasts an icy judgment:
"Illegal Chaotic Thought Detected
Initiating Dichotomous Cage Program"
