In a wooden house by the sea, Shi Lei and Jack sat opposite each other. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

There were wines and cigars on the table, but Shi Lei was not interested.

"Mr. Jack, don't be busy with these mundane tasks, let's get straight to the point. ”

Jack was already desperate, but he didn't expect that Shi Lei would agree to talk to him again, although Shi Lei still said that he just wanted to hear what the Night Pupil was going to pay to ask him for help, but at least, this was the first step towards success.

"Since Mr. Shi said so, then I will be open and honest. As soon as Jack spoke, Shi Lei was stunned, what he said was a pure Chinese, and Shi Lei was a little worried about whether his English was enough to deal with such a complicated conversation.

Shi Lei smiled and said, "Mr. Jack's Chinese is really good. ”

"For those of us who are in charge of the region, it is essential to know a few necessary languages. Mr. Shi, you must already know that we need to borrow your insight to identify a number of precious cultural relics for us. ”

Shi Lei nodded, this was his analysis, and in the communication he had just had with the scepter, the last question was about this matter. Otherwise, he wouldn't have changed his mind to see Jack.

"Do you really dare to believe me?" Shi Lei said with a smile, his expression slightly narrow.

Jack nodded seriously and said, "In the past, Mr. X has always helped us in this matter, and when scientific means can no longer determine the authenticity of a batch of cultural relics, we can only choose to trust Mr. X completely." And since Mr. X said that Mr. Shi is enough to inherit his mantle in this regard, and even better than the blue, then we will also trust Mr. Shi unconditionally. ”

"What kind of artifacts are these? Don't tell me it's illegal smuggling. ”

Jack's expression was slightly embarrassed, he scratched his head, and finally said, "This batch of cultural relics will definitely not see the light of day, but Mr. Shi, rest assured, no one will know that you have helped us." Moreover, this matter itself has nothing to do with Mr. Shi, who is only responsible for the appraisal, and everything else is the responsibility of the organization. ”

"I really can't see that the head of your organization is still a lover of cultural relics. You should not be short of money, as can be seen from the high fees you charge, and although the cost of maintaining an organization like yours must be astronomical, you are still not short of money. So, you're also smuggling artifacts, which is interesting, but at least not to sell them. ”

Jack smiled awkwardly and said, "I have already applied to the headquarters for this, and they said that they can say it to Mr. Shi." However, Mr. Shi is also asked to keep it confidential for us after hearing it. Of course, we trust Mr. Shi, otherwise we wouldn't have told Mr. Shi. ”

Shi Lei laughed, waved his hand and said: "Don't say it so high-sounding, you just know very well, if I don't tell me why you are so interested in cultural relics, I'm afraid I will never agree to help you with this." Without further ado, let's start with your purpose. ”

"We have been working around the world to search for a range of buried artifacts because we have enough evidence to show that these historical artifacts often represent the level of technology that their respective eras represented. At least a large part of these cultural relics represent the level of science and technology that mankind has reached in history. ”

Shi Lei frowned and said, "You don't need to show any evidence for this, each era has specific products of each era, and they represent the highest level of productivity at that time." ”

"No, no, no, we are not talking about this, but that there is probably a hidden technology in these artifacts that is beyond our world. Does Mr. Shi believe that in the so many years of the earth's existence, human beings have had at least several reincarnations on this planet? Not necessarily humans, but at least intelligent beings, who in their time, probably possessed a level of technology far beyond the current society. And we have enough evidence to show that these technologies are likely to be hidden in the cultural relics of previous dynasties. ”

Shi Lei's brows furrowed deeper, and he said: "You said that the intelligent beings on the earth have experienced at least several reincarnations, which I believe, or I am willing to believe. However, the cultural relics you can collect are only a few thousand years ago, and the history of thousands of years cannot give birth to more sophisticated scientific and technological capabilities than we have now. Mr. Jack's words puzzled me. ”

Jack smiled faintly, as if he had been prepared for Shi Lei's doubts, and said: "Mr. Shi is right, the era we live in now is at least the peak of our generation's intelligent biotechnology capabilities. But the mystery of the universe is beyond our comprehension, and the universe is influencing not only us, but also the ancients. Therefore, in the history of thousands of years of civilization, the artworks created by people in the past also contain technologies that they did not understand, but did not prevent them from recording them. Mr. Shi must have heard the saying that great artists are crazy, or perhaps, they are not anomalous people, but in some unknown place, they fit into the universe and perceive some technologies that will be born thousands or even tens of thousands of years later. And we hope that from these cultural relics, these artworks, we can unearth the secrets that those great artists cannot understand, but record them, and it is best to use them for us in advance. ”

"The erasure and reconstruction of memories are what you found from these artifacts and artworks?" Shi Lei hit the nail on the head.

Jack nodded slowly, his expression became grim, and he lowered his voice and said, "The technology we got is not perfect, and we are still working on it." However, the technique did derive from some of the great paintings. ”

"Oh, can you tell me whose painting it is?"

"Van Gogh. ”

Shi Lei didn't ask any more, in fact, he couldn't understand what Jack said, but just like he didn't know what the existence of the black card was, he was used to accepting these sensational but real realities.

"Therefore, authenticity is particularly important, you are not collectors, authenticity is only a certificate in collectors, but for you, it may represent a black technology. ”

Jack nodded heavily and said, "So, please ask Mr. Shi to help, in fact, identifying the true and fake, this is also a black technology beyond human comprehension, right?"

Shi Lei smiled, did not deny it, and maintained a smile of "guess".

"I'm sorry, please forgive me for my impulsiveness, I shouldn't have asked Mr. Shi this question. Jack couldn't see anything from Shi Lei, and he was afraid that Shi Lei would be unhappy because of this.

Shi Lei waved his hand and said, "It's okay, everyone has curiosity." ”

"Thank you Mr. Shi for your understanding. I hope that Mr. Shi can understand that if the current level of science and technology is only naturally climbed, it will no longer be possible to achieve the goal of leaving this planet before the extinction of mankind. All we're doing is trying to speed up the tech tree. ”

Shi Lei smiled slightly again and said, "Next, shouldn't you take out the temptation of your Night Pupil?"
