Do you believe in fate?

This is a simple and not simple question, simple because the answer is nothing more than believing or not believing, not simply because the question of fate itself is extremely mysterious. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Feng Han, who came back to his senses, didn't want to make a rash answer of believing or not believing, especially in front of such a beautiful woman to the extreme, an unthinking answer could only leave a superficial impression on the other party. What's more, the other party has been looking for the so-called destined person, regardless of whether he has a relationship with this destined person or not, I believe that the stunning beauty in front of him must have studied this issue in depth.

Just when Feng Han didn't know where to start to leave a good impression on the beauty in front of him, a clear voice beside him resolved his embarrassment.

"What do you need to drink, sir?"

"Bring me a glass of orange juice, thank you. "In the face of the sweet-looking waiter's inquiry, the wind chill pressure is finally not so great.

After the waiter took the orange juice and left, the beauty in sunglasses no longer seemed to be obsessed with Feng Han's answer, and she spoke again: "By the way, let me introduce myself first, my surname is Chu, my name is Bingyan, Bing Bing of Ice and Snow, Yan Ran, that is, the forgotten years in the bar are like passing water." ”

"You are a legend in the bar, I didn't expect it to be such a big beauty, I believe that the barmates will be shocked when they know the truth. In order not to look too cramped, Feng Han tried to control the smoothness of his voice.

Chu Bingyan smiled noncommittally and casually turned the notebook to face the wind chill. Take a ferry to the Black Pavilion to see the new festival

Feng Han looked intently, and saw an article on the computer screen narrating the life of the famous physicist Newton.

Just when Feng Han was a little puzzled, Chu Bingyan's cold and beautiful voice sounded again: "Nature and the laws of nature are hidden deep in the night, and it may be appropriate to use this poem by Pope to describe Newton's influence on modern physics." The old man, who was buried at Westminster Abbey in London, England, spent his life advancing human civilization, revealing the motion of the planets, the orbits of comets and the tides of the oceans with mathematical methods he invented and a high degree of intelligence, exploring the decomposition of light and the nature of color that no one else had anticipated, and explaining things in nature and antiquity. ”

Speaking of this, Chu Bingyan paused for a moment before continuing: "However, such a world-renowned physicist, mathematician, astronomer, known as the 'father of modern science', has spent the rest of his life studying theology and trying to prove the greatness of Almighty God with philosophy. Convinced of the secret code hidden in the Bible, he studied Hebrew diligently, and his extensive study of the books of Daniel and Revelation in the Bible is profound. He even spent about 50 years writing 4,500 pages of research manuscripts trying to predict when the end of the world would come. ”

Chu Bingyan stopped again, as if waiting for Feng Han to digest the above content, and then her beautiful eyes were raised, and she said in a tone that was almost admiring the pilgrimage: "No one knows what happened in between, what makes such a scientist who has always been rigorous in his studies firmly believe that finding the Bible code is more important than discovering gravity." ”

Maybe it's just that he's hit a plateau in his research and wants to find inspiration in theology. Feng Han didn't understand why Chu Bingyan suddenly talked about this world-famous scientist, so he could only find something to say.

Chu Bingyan shook her head and continued: "This great sage who entered Cambridge University at the age of eighteen to study, became a professor at Cambridge University at the age of twenty-seven, and invented the two theorems of calculus and integral can still say soberly and humbly when he is dying: 'I am just a little child picking up small stones and shells on the seaside. The truth is as vast as the ocean, far beyond what we can see in its entirety. Would you believe that all such a genius did in the rest of his life was simply to find inspiration?"

Feng Han was speechless, a reason that even he was not convinced.

"These manuscripts, known as the 'Newtonian Manuscripts,' were bought at an auction in the '30s by a mysterious collector named Abraham Yahuda. Until recently, researchers at the Hebrew Ethnographic Museum in Jerusalem, Israel, discovered the Newtonian manuscript that had disappeared for more than half a century from its collection, and what stunned the researchers was that the great scientist, after a series of tedious calculations, had scribbled the end of the world in 2060 on a piece of scribbled paper. ”

"Do you believe in this so-called end of the world?" Feng Han asked with some surprise, there are actually too many prophecies about the end of the world, but it turns out that these things are just people scaring themselves. It was hard for Feng Han to believe that the beautiful woman in front of him would be convinced of the end of the world because of the content of a manuscript, even if the owner of the manuscript was a great man.

Chu Bingyan didn't answer Feng Han's words, but turned the notebook on the table, tapped it for a while, and then turned it to Feng Han again.

This time on the screen is Nostradamus's famous prophetic poem "The Centuries".

Chu Bingyan said: "Throughout ancient and modern times, almost all prophecies point to the end of the world or the time of the new era after the 20th century, if one or two predictions are the same, you can call it a coincidence. But whether it's the Mayan prophecy, the Bible's "Revelation", this "Centuries", or the ten ancient prophecies of our country all have the same point in time, don't you think there will be some kind of potential connection between them?"

However, both the Mayan prophecy and the Centuries have been proven by time to be untrustworthy. Feng Han couldn't help but retort.

"What you're looking at now is a translation published in '98, and you can flip through the book book of Chronicle 9, number 83. Chu Bingyan didn't argue, but made a gesture of please.

Following Chu Bingyan's prompt, Feng Han quickly found the poem.

On May 12 of a certain year, when the earthquake struck-

When the sun came to Taurus on the twentieth day

The earth will shake violently

The majestic theater was reduced to ruins in an instant

The earth and the sky were cloudy and dark

Those who do not believe in God also burn incense and kowtow to worship the Buddha and make offerings

This is the original text of the book, and the translator explains below that the twentieth day of the sun's entry into Taurus (also known as Taurus) according to the constellation is exactly May 12, of course, the translator did not have a clue about the location and year at that time, except for the month and date of the earthquake.

Feng Han instantly understood Chu Bingyan's purpose of letting him read this poem, he didn't want to enter the rhythm of the other party, and said: "Actually, I have already understood this "Centuries", and the most famous of it is about the doomsday prophecy of 99 years, but don't we live well now? ”

Chu Bingyan smiled brightly and said softly, "Can you read this doomsday prophecy to me?"

Without any hesitation, he quickly found the prophecy in the book and read: "In July 1999, the King of Terror descended from the sky, and then the king of Angolumoya will be resurrected, and Mars will rule in the name of happiness. After reading it, Feng Han focused his eyes on Chu Bingyan's pretty face, wondering what sensational remarks this stunning beauty would throw.

Chu Bingyan's eyes were shining, like a galaxy flickering, she muttered: "If I go back thousands of years, in order to give confidence to the suffering people, maybe I will leave such a prophecy." When all things return to their origins, the old calendar alternates with the new calendar, God will come down from heaven, and people will hear God's will and usher in a new life. ”

This prophecy, which imitated the format of "Centuries", sent a chill down Feng Han's spine, and he said hesitantly: "You mean that people have misunderstood, and what Danmas said about the date of birth of the King of Terror falling from the sky in July 1999?"

"Do you think that when we say that the Son of God fell from the sky, it starts from his birth, or does it start from his preaching? In other words, if Danmas saw the future through the eyes of heaven, do you think that the terrifying king in his pen fell from the sky, from the birth of the terrifying king, or from the beginning of the terrifying king who really destroyed the world?" Chu Bingyan asked rhetorically.

"Yes...... But ......" Wind Cold is a little incoherent.

If we change our minds in this way, many of the inexplicable things in the prophecy will be made clear at once. In "The Centuries", there are many prophecies about the post-99 years, and the Mayans have never explicitly said that 12 years is the end of the world, and the only thing that can be determined is that there will be a catastrophe that will affect the world in the 21st century, which will bring mankind into a new era. Chu Bingyan's tone was firm, with a convincing power.

Feng Han, who was shocked, couldn't find a theoretical refutation for a while, and his hands and ten fingers were unconsciously twisted together, showing the ups and downs of his inner emotions. After a long time, he spoke: "What if all these prophecies you said come true? ”

Chu Bingyan smiled slightly: "Actually, I asked you earlier if you believe in fate? The answer is not important, the important thing is that if there is fate, then can fate be changed?"

"Yes, yes!" Chu Bingyan's words immediately cleared the confusion in Feng Han's heart, and he said with an excited fist: "If fate can't be changed, do we know what fate can be? If fate can be changed, then the existence of these prophecies is completely worthless." ”

Chu Bingyan looked at Feng Han's somewhat childish behavior, and asked with a smile: "Then can you tell me what the fate is?"

What is fate? This is also a big proposition. Feng Han can explain it as the law of the operation of things, the trend of development and change, but he knows that the other party is raising this question now, and he will never just ask for an abstract explanation.

"I'd like to hear what you think. This time, Feng Han handed the problem back to Chu Bingyan.

"If I were to compare time to a long river that goes on and never returns, would you agree?"

"Totally agree. Feng Han nodded.

"Well, if time is a long river, then humans can be compared to swimming fish that can only swim down the river. Speaking of this, Chu Bingyan paused, and saw that Feng Han did not raise any objections before continuing: "For me, it is fate for a swimming fish to be in this river, and everything it will encounter in the river is luck. ”

Feng Han was attracted by the theory of Chu Bingyan's image, and gradually listened to it.

"In the long river of time, not all swimming fish will be well-behaved and quiet in the river, there will always be some outstanding swimming fish will jump out of the water to see what awaits them in front of them. When these swimming fish fall back into the water, some will hide everything they see in their hearts, and some will tell their partners how far ahead there will be a branch, a reef, and a whirlpool. ”

"You mean the prophets are the fish that jump out of the river. Feng Han couldn't help but interject.

Chu Bingyan nodded and continued: "However, either because of the speed of the current, or because of the deviation when swinging the tail, these swimming fish may experience reefs and whirlpools, but they have mistaken the branch. ”

"Fate can change. After hearing Chu Bingyan's explanation, Feng Han muttered.

"I think it can only be called an impact, for example, there is a waterfall in front of the river, and you can't change that fact as a swimming fish, it's fate. All it can do is to control its swimming speed and angle on the premise of knowing the waterfall, so that the end of rushing down the waterfall is not so miserable. Without knowing it, it rushed down the waterfall and maybe hit the reef and died, and with the knowledge, it made a slight change, maybe just a hard fall on the river surface under the waterfall, which is luck. Fate is a certainty, luck is a variable, but as long as the fish is in the water, it can't get rid of the word fate after all. ”

Feng Han let out a long sigh and said, "Your metaphor is very vivid, and it has always been considered the most difficult thing to change one's life against the sky, because although these prophets knew what to expect, they never jumped out of this river. But having said that, what I don't understand is what these things have to do with us. ”

"Would you be interested in hearing me tell a story?" Chu Bingyan asked with a smile.

"I want to hear about it. ”
