Wu Lang took it with a smile, took a deep breath, slowly spit out the smoke in his mouth, and said: "Now with the development of science and technology, human research has also shifted from the macrocosm to the microcosm, so as to find that the human brain and the brains of other creatures are essentially composed of individual neurons and neurostromal cells, of which neurons are the main body of the brain, and they are also the cells with the highest proportion in the brain. Neurons transmit information with the help of neural interstitial cells, so that various organisms have their own consciousness, when Chinese scientists are studying this process, they are surprised to find that the relationship between the "cosmic network" and the stars is actually very similar to the relationship between the neural interstitium and neurons, if it is only the above discovery, it will not shock scientists at all, what really shocks scientists is that through the observation of the Planck space telescope, people see another "invisible to the human eye, but real" The overall framework of the universe after depicting dark energy is surprisingly consistent with the "biological structure" observed by humans in living organisms. ”

Yin Yuting, Yin Fatzi, and Shang Minjie heard this with a look of horror in their eyes.

Wu Lang continued: "Whether it is a comparison of the dark energy "cosmic net" and the human brain, or a comparison of the primitive galaxy and the mouse brain, it seems to imply that the universe actually has many striking similarities with biological organizations, and scientists have begun to think that the universe may have a property that can only be explained by "self-consciousness", to put it bluntly, there are certain laws in the universe, and only under the premise that the universe has "self-consciousness" can it be reasonably explained. For example, after a year-long careful observation and calculation of a primitive galaxy 34 billion light-years away from the earth, it was found that the stars in this region have many phenomena that violate physical rules, such as unwarranted large-scale nebula eruptions, and the movement of stars that seem to "teleportation", etc., if the "anomalies" in this galaxy are caused by astronomical laws that have never been discovered by human beings, then it should be universal, which means that these "anomalies" can also be observed in other galaxies. And if these "anomalies" are caused by some kind of "self-awareness", then they should have a "personality", that is, only this area has these "anomalies", and what scientists have observed so far is consistent with the second judgment. ”

"After a while, let's finish drinking, don't sell off. Yin Yuting snatched the wine bottle from Wu Lang's hand and said coquettishly.

Wu Lang grinned at her and said: "So is the universe really a kind of life that cannot be understood by human beings? And those dark energy and dark matter that cannot be directly observed by human beings may be another material level of the universe? If the universe is not a kind of life, then why is there such a high similarity with the structure of living things at the macroscopic level? This involves the understanding of "aliens"; according to the current research on the universe, many scientists have found that "aliens" are conceived as the same as human beings." "Carbon-based life" is a narrow idea, because human beings do not know enough about the universe, so the so-called aliens are completely possible, they are another kind of material structure of life, and the high similarity between the "cosmic network" and human biological organization tells us that "aliens" Perhaps not only is the material structure different from humans, but even at the material level, it may be different from humans, for an exaggerated analogy, the 46 billion light-year universe that we humans have observed now may be just a cell in the alien body, or a drop of our water contains thousands of different cosmic spaces. ”

Shang Minjie nodded, and was about to speak, when suddenly there was a ringtone on the mobile phone, and then she picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table to answer the sound.

After hanging up the phone, Shang Minjie looked at the three of them excitedly and said, "Which of you has heard of the gates of hell?"

Yin Yuting and Yin Fatzi, brother and sister, shook their heads and did not speak.

Wu Lang nodded and smiled: "It was more than 50 years ago, a huge meteorite from outer space attacked the earth and smashed into the Karakum Desert in Turkmenistan, with a groundbreaking explosion, a large fire crater with a diameter of more than 70 meters and a depth of more than 30 meters appeared on the ground, and the raging fire in this crater has been burning to this day, and there is no sign of extinguishing at all, Turkmenistan people call it "the gate of hell" For more than 50 years, few people knew about its existence, and because of its location in the middle of the desert, of course, few people set foot there, and the raging fire burning inside the pit has been a mystery to the world. ”

"My friend George and his team, in order to obtain the expedition qualification and entry procedures to Turkmenistan, he prepared for 2 years, in 2 years, he also continued to test and improve his expedition equipment, finally, he obtained the coveted entry expedition qualification, just after the expedition in the afternoon, I sent the video data to my mobile phone, let's see. After Shang Minjie finished speaking, she stood up from the sofa with her mobile phone, connected it to the TV, and sat on the sofa again, and the four of them watched it intently......

Seven off-road vehicles drove slowly through the desert, rolling up a belt of dust several kilometers long, and George's team entered the Karakum desert......

The crater is a U-shaped structure that is close to a perfect circle, there are several large flames in the deepest part of the bottom, most of the flames are burned around, the surrounding pit walls are almost vertical, and there is an open area in the middle of the bottom that does not spew flames, it is likely that the collapsed soil buried part of the flame outlet, the reason for the flames is actually very simple, it is actually a methane leak caused by the meteorite hitting the underground natural gas layer, and the explosion of the burning meteorite ignited the leaked natural gas to form an inextinguishable flame.

The large fire pit in front of them was obviously beyond their imagination, pale red flames of different sizes came out of the soil gaps, and when they walked into the edge of the fire pit, they felt bursts of heat rushing towards their faces. The group circled around the fire pit to find the best solution to safely descend to the bottom, and after checking the surrounding area and basic conditions, they used a laser rangefinder to measure the diameter and depth of the pit to prepare for the erection of the rope device.

George's fireproof suit comes with an oxygen pack, a sealed helmet, a laser thermometer, Cameras and electronically controlled alarm systems, made of special heat-resistant fire-resistant materials, worn on the body are very similar to astronauts, facing the crater in the raging fire, George seems to feel unusually stressed, when he walked to the edge to probe and found that the rising hot air flow was beyond his own imagination, the thermometer showed 97 degrees Celsius, like a natural large oven, even if he put on the fireproof equipment still felt unbearable, and suddenly a sense of fear from the inside to the outside appeared on his face.

Explorers most of the time need the courage to overcome themselves in the face of fear, just like ordinary people, and George is obviously no exception.

After a long time, George formulated the best plan according to the situation on the spot, set up a high-temperature rope across the fire pit, the two ends of the rope were supported by fixed triangular supports, and the person slid to the center of the fire pit through the rope, and then retracted the rope to slowly send the person down to the bottom of the fire pit.

George needed to test the equipment himself after it was built, and he slid little by little to the center, trying to see if the solution was feasible, whether the temperature was there, whether it was within an acceptable range, whether the fireproof suit and other equipment could stand the test.

All the preparations were carried out step by step, they developed different plans and plans to deal with the risk to minimize the risk factor, and after the preparation was completed, George began to implement the first step plan, testing the equipment to slide to the center of the fire pit.
