Chapter 332: Discovery Crossing
But in addition to getting rich benefits, Dongfang Yu's protrusion also invisibly blocked the way of many people. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The profession of info archaeology is very senior, several people in their sixties have worked hard for a lifetime, and they have been working hard for decades step by step, and they can compete for the position of vice president of the archaeological association that has been vacated, but they have been completely beaten back to their original form because of an Dongfang Yu. Unwilling to be anyone, on the surface polite, Dongfang Chang Dongfang shouted shortly, but in fact, he was waiting to see when Dongfang Yu fell on his heels. Since Dongfang Ripple and his brother moved to the place where they live now, there will be some such old people in the family every once in a while, among which Shen Lao and Liu Lao, who sent the magazine today, are the most diligent, and the hypocritical smile on their faces, even Dongfang Ripple, who is not deeply involved in the world, looks like they will feel a chill that they can't help but feel. Dongfang Ripple had heard his brother say that these two people were also the most likely candidates to become vice presidents back then. Originally, he was just jealous, and it was nothing to worry about, but Dongfang Yu said it strangely, since the paper that made him a blockbuster five years ago, Dongfang Yu has never been able to come up with any influential academic research results. So the criticism became heavier and heavier, and Dongfang Ripple has heard others talk about it more than once, saying that his brother Dongfang Yu was just a flash in the pan by luck, but he actually has no real skills, and even more privately rumored that his brother's earth-shattering paper was actually not from Dongfang Yu's hand at all, but naked plagiarism! Dongfang Ripple didn't know how many of these words had reached her brother's ears, she just saw Dongfang Yu being depressed and decadent day by day. Sometimes Dongfang Yu would stand in his parents' mourning hall all day long, refusing to eat or drink and refuse to be disturbed by anyone, and when he came out again, his face was haggard, and Dongfang Ripple couldn't do anything except feel distressed. Just when Dongfang Ripple was becoming more and more worried that his brother would be completely defeated by doubts if he continued like this, things quietly changed from a certain day more than four months ago.
On that day, Dongfang Yu, as usual, went into the study alone to look at the antiques he had collected. Dongfang Ripple knew that his brother would go to the study every once in a while to see his treasures, one was to see if he could find some new research directions and inspiration, and the other was to dispel his boredom and depressed emotions. Dongfang Ripple watched his brother walk into the study with his own eyes, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but not long after his brother entered, Dongfang Ripple heard an exclamation from the study, "How can this be"! After Dongfang Ripple realized that something was wrong, he and Chen Hui went to knock on the door of the study, but found that his brother had locked the door of the study, and no one could open it. For two days, two whole days, Dongfang Yu never walked out of the study for half a step, just when Dongfang Ripple was worried that he was about to call the police, Dongfang Yu finally slowly opened the door, and what Dongfang Ripple saw at that time was a brother who seemed to have fallen into an evil spirit, with a burning light in his eyes.
Dongfang Yu's state of speaking didn't change much, but the whole person seemed to have suddenly come to life from a gloom, and after he withdrew Chen Hui in a few words, he called Dongfang Ripple to the study and took out the family photo painted by Cao Hongda. Dongfang Yu occasionally talks to Dongfang Ripple about some of his collections when he is in a good mood, and Dongfang Ripple once heard his brother mention this family photo. Dongfang Yu once said that although this painting is funded in the period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms, it can be regarded as a long history, but because the painter Cao Hongda was only a prime minister of Wu Yueguo at that time, this painting is just a masterpiece on a whim during his birthday, and there is no very deep meaning, and Cao Hongda's painting techniques are really not a master, so even if it is a little longer, this is not a great treasure. At that time, my brother bought this painting because the other party bid little and it was an authentic work, and he wanted to study the painting habits of the people of the time through the painting. At that time, after Dongfang Yu started this painting, he didn't value it very much, but he didn't expect that what changed his brother in the end was such a painting.
The name of this painting is family portrait, and the content is straightforward and easy to understand, but Cao Hongda gathered the whole family to sit together after his 40th birthday banquet and painted a souvenir. Originally, the structure of this painting was that Cao Hongda's elderly mother sat in the center position, and behind the old woman stood two concubines, Cao Hongda's eldest son, second son and younger daughter. The family gathered together, and the expression on their faces was also happy, and it was a happy scene. The strange thing is that when Dongfang Yu showed it to Dongfang Ripples, Dongfang Ripples found that there was obviously one less person in the second row, and the expressions on everyone's faces were not as bright and joyful as before. Dongfang Ripple recalled the painting in front of him and the memory for a long time, and was surprised to find that the eldest son of Cao Hongda, who was supposed to stand in the middle of the old woman's back, was missing from the picture! A good painting is one less person, this painting is hidden in the study, there is no possibility of being dropped, and Dongfang Yu has repeatedly emphasized that the technique of this painting, paper and pen and ink are absolutely Cao Hongda's authentic handiwork, Dongfang Ripples is convinced of Dongfang Yu's ability in this regard, is it really haunted? !
Dongfang Ripple felt that a layer of fine cold sweat broke out from her junior, growing so big, this is probably the weirdest and fantastic thing she has ever experienced, and this kind of thing that science can't explain, Dongfang Ripple doesn't know what else she can say except for deep fear. She stared at Dongfang Yu with her eyes wide open, unblinking, hoping that her brother could explain the panic and doubts in her heart. After Dongfang Yu saw Dongfang Ripple's reaction, he first grabbed Dongfang Ripple's shoulder comfortingly, and then couldn't hide his excitement and said: "Ripple, I think you have already seen the strangeness of this painting, when I came to the study two days ago, it was already what it is now." At first, I was just as surprised as you are, the painting itself is inanimate, and the people on the painting naturally don't run around, and I don't believe in the words of Zi Bu and the strange force, so there should be only one explanation for all this, and that is because something different may have happened on our side, which caused a major change in the environment in which the painter put himself in his own shoes. ”
Dongfang Yu paused after looking at Dongfang Ripple after speaking, expecting Dongfang Ripple to give him a corresponding reaction, but the impact of this incident on Dongfang Ripple was too great, causing Dongfang Ripple to be confused after listening to what Dongfang Yu said, and could only look at Dongfang Yu stupidly. Dongfang Yu had no choice but to continue step by step: "Ripples, let's put it this way, you must have heard of the 'butterfly effect', right?" This is a theory that American meteorologists once mentioned in the 70s of the last century, and the occasional vibration of a butterfly's wings in the Amazon rainforest may cause a tornado in Texas, USA. Its central argument is that even the slightest change in conditions, amplified over time, can make a huge difference in the future state. Now let's think about this theory from another angle, if there are two spaces that are almost parallel to each other, with only a small amount of causal relationship and no great intersection, and the space as effect is integrated with another element that should not be missing in the space as cause, will it also cause many things to change in this space as cause, and then cause some things to happen in this space as effect that cannot be explained at all? ”
Dongfang Yu said this, looking at Dongfang Ripple's expression, he felt that with Dongfang Ripple's current state, it shouldn't be useful for him to tell her about these theories, so he continued to explain while thinking about it: "Ripples, look, if we bring this theory into what we see, this is the case, we already know that this painting is a family photo painted by Cao Hongda at his fortieth birthday banquet, right?" Before, we saw that there were six people on the painting, but now there are only five people, and after expelling the theory of ghosts and gods, we can actually try to understand it in this way. It's not a collection that I really love, so I don't open it every time I go to my study, and the last time I saw it was a little over a month ago. At that time, there were still six complete people in this painting, which means that if we take our current life time as a measure of latitude, then if we extrapolate history back and forth according to the space and environment in which we lived a month ago, there were still six people in Cao Hongda's family who attended Cao Hongda's 40th birthday banquet. But now it has become five people, which means that if we extrapolate history back and forth based on the space and environment we live in now, when Cao Hongda was forty years old, there were only five family members attending his birthday banquet. You must know that the average life expectancy of the ancients is much lower than ours now, so there is a saying that "life is rare in seventy years", and if you change it to the present, there are many people who are eighty or ninety years old, so people used to celebrate their birthdays, and the birthday banquet of the whole ten years old after forty years old is worth having a good time. And Cao Hongda was the prime minister at that time, a standard dignitary, no need to worry about livelihood, and the ancients were taught by Confucianism and paid great attention to filial piety, so there was no such thing as children going out and not catching up with their father's birthday banquet. Then the eldest son of Cao Hongda who disappeared on the picture is very easy to explain, that is, if you extrapolate back now, when Cao Hongda is forty years old, his eldest son is likely to be no longer in the space where he lives. What I say, Ripples, do you understand? ”
Dongfang Ripple didn't squeak, she lowered her head and thought seriously for a long time before she raised her head and looked at her brother and said with some apologies: "It seems that there are some understandings, but it doesn't make sense, brother, can you make it simpler?" ”
Dongfang Ripple's answer made Dongfang Yu a little impatient, but it was useless to be in a hurry, after all, it took two days to figure out what he had thought about, and it was indeed difficult for his sister to accept it all for a while. So Dongfang Yu could only smile helplessly, thinking in his mind how to organize the language, so that his sister could fully understand what he wanted to express. As he pondered, he looked around aimlessly, avoiding staring at the ripples in the east all the time, which would put more pressure on his sister and make it more difficult for her to smooth out her thoughts. Just when the thinking of the brother and sister was no longer at a frequency and the communication entered a blind spot, Dongfang Yu suddenly aimed at a book on the shelf, which was a best-selling novel that Dongfang Ripple bought some time ago to pass the boring time, Dongfang Yu finally found a new entry point, he suddenly turned his head to look at Dongfang Ripple, and asked in surprise: "Ripple, have you heard of crossing?" I can tell you with great certainty that the only reason that can be explained is that Cao Hongda's eldest son, Yin Mingjing, must have traveled to other time and space, and it should have happened in this month! ”
Through? Through! Dongfang Ripple's thinking exploded in an instant, and crossing this kind of bridge that has been written badly in the novel is something that Dongfang Ripple often sees, but never thought about what would really happen. Now that he said it so seriously from his brother's mouth, Dongfang Ripple felt like he was dreaming. She stretched out her right hand and pinched her inner thigh, when her mother was still alive, she said that the nerves in the inner thigh are particularly densely distributed, so it is much more painful to pinch the skin and flesh on the inner thigh than to pinch other places. At this moment, a sharp pain made Dongfang Ripple finally understand that she was not dreaming, she gasped and said in hindsight: "I'll go!" I'm not dreaming, brother, what you said is actually true? There really is a crossing in this world! ”
Dongfang Yu was speechless about Dongfang Ripple's cuteness, he touched Dongfang Ripple's hair funny and distressed, and said in a tone full of doting: "You said that you stupid child, you are so light and heavy on yourself, it hurts, quickly rub it yourself." ”
Dongfang Ripple looked at his brother and smirked a little embarrassed for a long time, and when the pain slowly eased, he asked suspiciously: "Brother, you have been in the study for two days, and you have mysteriously called me in, just to tell me that Cao Hongda's eldest son has crossed this matter?" I know it's amazing, but what does it have to do with us? Brother, do you know that you have locked yourself in the study for the past two days, how can I think you don't open the door, but it scared me, and you made trouble for a long time just for such a little thing, you can't do it!
