Fire Phoenix!

If someone had told me two months ago that they had seen a fire phoenix, I would have laughed my big teeth off...... Damn, now I have to stretch my face and look at Comrade Chen Shuipian of the green-haired turtle, and I can't say anything. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Now I couldn't laugh anymore, and looked at him in horror and inexplicably.

Maybe my expression was too wooden, Chen Shuipian obviously wanted to cry, but he didn't dare, so he had to tremble and say, "I'm not lying, what I said is true...... But I haven't seen the phoenix either, and the Americans have just shown me a few blurry pictures. With that, he began to touch his pocket, rummaged through it for a long time, and finally took out a wallet from his intimate inner bosom, opened it and showed it to me.

This kind of moment has to be scored, so I didn't even move, and the tiger girl snatched the purse, checked it, and said, "There is no danger." "Just show it to me. I opened it and saw that the first one was a green card with Chen Shui's name on it, and I couldn't help but pout: "You kid ****** love Taiwan so much?" Instructed Wu Shuyuan: "Kick him a few more times......"

Amid the screams of Comrade Chen Shuipian in frustration, I looked at those photos. There are only three photos, and the first one is actually a black and white photo, but it has obviously been artificially processed later. The photo shows a majestic eruption, with a bird-like creature with a long tail soaring through the flames amid the billowing fireworks...... It didn't look like the scenery nearby, so I stopped Wu Shuyuan's flying feet and asked Chen Shuipian, "Where is this?" ”

Chen Shuipian said with a sad face: "It's the Kilauea volcano...... I nodded, and told Wu Shuyuan: "Go on, continue to ......" and then look at the second photo, which is color, but the color is not very good, the color is relatively dull, and it looks like a product of the early 10s of the last century. The scene in the photo is still a volcanic eruption, but this time the situation is more ferocious, with magma splashing everywhere and the firebird looming in the smoke...... It was not the nearby scenery, so he stopped Wu Shuyuan's flying feet again, and asked Chen Shuipian: "Where is this?" ”

Chen Shuipaan had already begun to roll his eyes, and his mouth was full of blood: "It's also from the Kilauea volcano......" As soon as I nodded, he immediately continued: "The third photo is the same." "This guy actually knows that he can draw inferences, I don't think there is any need to convince education anymore, so I didn't let Wu Shuyuan continue to kick, and directly picked up the third photo to see, it was actually a digital photo, very clear, the same volcanic eruption scene, but this time I only saw a fire in the smoke, and I couldn't see what it was.

I frowned and asked, "Why is it that the more advanced the technology, the more difficult it is to see the shadow of the firebird?" Chen Shuipian spit out a mouthful of blood, took out a tooth, and defended himself in a leaky accent: "The fire phoenix is not something that you can see if you want to see it, and it is often decades before you can see the fire phoenix reappear, and it is even more difficult to take a clear photo......" Pointing to the last photo, he was proud: "This is what I took." ”

I glanced at the photo twice, frowned, and said, "This one you took is the second...... How do I think you're dealing with an errand? This...... The red light in this photo is likely to be only part of the magma ejected from the crater......" Chen Shui's face suddenly became embarrassed: "This ......" Seeing that Wu Shuyuan was about to get up again, he hurriedly said: "Don't ...... Other...... I said, I said, this ...... This is actually used by my boss after expiration...... Oops...... I've told the truth, why are you kicking me? Woohoo......"

"Okay, don't cry......" I gave him a blank look: "It's hateful enough to be a dog, but it's still a leper dog, how can the Americans hire you blindly?" Chen Shuipian snorted and cried: "When I was first transferred, I didn't know the situation...... And no one told me that the fire phoenix only came out once in decades...... I'm embarrassed to do it every day, so I'm going to come up with a ...... of a photo."

I thought to myself that your grandmother really couldn't see that you were quite dedicated, so I snorted: "Tell me concisely about the information you have about the Fire Phoenix." Chen Shuipian was afraid of being beaten and stood up straight: "The legend of the fire phoenix is very famous in the local area, and the early Polynesians who lived here claimed to be the people favored by the fire phoenix and the darling of the earth. ”

Sun Hongxu nodded beside him: "Each primitive nation has its own gods. Chen Shuipian hurriedly said: "The fire phoenix is not a god, we believe that it is a real creature, and many indigenous people have seen it with their own eyes. It is said that as early as 1795, Hawaiian Chief Kamehameha relied on the help of the fire phoenix to unify the entire Hawaiian Islands, and called himself King Kamehameha I of Hawaii, when the European navigator Cook landed on the Hawaiian island of Oahu. ”

Sun Hongxu continued to nod: "I have also heard the story of Chief Kamehameha, in 1818, Kamehameha I painted the flag of the Kingdom of Hawaii similar to the British flag because of his envy of the rice-shaped flag pattern of the British flag, which is also the origin of today's Hawaii state flag. The following year, Kamehameha I died, and Kamehameha II ascended the throne. In 1840, the Hawaiian government amended the law to change the original monarchy into a constitutional monarchy. ”

Luan Xiaoting couldn't help but be surprised when she heard this: "Isn't Hawaii the fiftieth state of the United States?" How did you still get something from Kamehameha I II? I sighed: "Less than three years after the reform, the British government openly claimed that Britain had sovereignty over Hawaii. Five years later, the French government claimed to occupy Hawaii and claim some of Hawaii, but this claim caused resentment among the inhabitants of Hawaii at the time. In one or three years, American Christian missionaries led all the members of the church and overthrew the Kingdom of Hawaii. The following year, the Provisional Government of the Republic of Hawaii was established, and the first and last queen of Hawaii was forced to abdicate, and Duchen became the first president of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Hawaii. Three years later, the United States officially incorporated Hawaii into the 50th state of the United States. ”

Instead of blaming the British, American, French, and Western powers for their brutal plundering of the Native Hawaiians, Tiger Girl asked another question: "When the Native Hawaiians were bullied, why didn't the Fire Phoenix come out to help?" Before I could speak, Chen Shuipian said: "Haha, what do you think the fire phoenix is?" Just a bird! Is it okay to be foolish to be blinded by those aborigines, and can you be blinded by foreign guns and cannons? ”

Wu Shuyuan raised his hand to give him a mouthful, but I stopped him: "It seems that the Hawaiian chief should have won the hearts of the people by relying on people's belief in the fire phoenix." This practice abounds in ancient China, what Zhang Chuxing Chen Shengwang's fish belly biography, what Liu Bang beheaded the White Snake uprising, what Ming Sect's Mo Dao Shiren one eye, instigated the Yellow River world to rebel...... To put it bluntly, it is the tiger skin of the gods to cover the common people. ”

Sun Hongxu also agreed: "Looking at the thing in this photo, it should be a bird that can survive in a hot area, and that Kamehameha I probably took advantage of this sudden natural scene to publicize that he got the help of the fire phoenix, so it was done." ”

I frowned and said, "But what does this have to do with the Americans?" Why did they go to great lengths to send people to build a station and wait for the rabbit on the top of this volcano where birds don't? Sun Hongxu couldn't guess it, and looked back at Chen Shuipian: "Let's say it, say it in detail, so as not to be beaten again." ”

"Yes, yes, yes......" Chen Shuipian nodded quickly, and said in detail: "The first photo of the fire phoenix taken by the Americans was a complete accident, the black and white photo was taken by a geologist, in the middle of the last century, just after the end of World War II, he took the expedition team to the Hawaiian Islands to shoot the landscape of the volcanic eruption, and unexpectedly encountered the fire phoenix. After the photo was washed out, he felt that the incident might cause a sensation in the entire biology community, so he gave the photo to one of his biology classmates, who had been drafted into the war during the war, and after the war, he was already a mid-level military officer, and went directly to the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) after changing jobs. When he got the picture, he felt that this particular creature could make a significant contribution to the development of weapons technology, such as fighter engines, rocket boosters, howitzer breeches, ...... All the military technologies associated with high temperatures are likely to benefit from this. Since then, the CIA has sent people to investigate the situation of the Fire Phoenix, but unfortunately the progress has been slow, and the Fire Phoenix research program was terminated shortly after the student retired. ”

I really didn't expect this to be going all the way to World War II, so I picked up the second photo and asked, "So what's going on with this?" Chen Shuipaan breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Shortly after the famous Iron Curtain speech in 1946, the Cold War broke out in full force. The political and diplomatic rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union and their allies was carried out in 'cold' ways such as local proxy wars, technological and arms races, diplomatic competition, and other 'cold' methods, that is, 'mutual containment without resorting to force', despite serious differences and conflicts, during this period when the differences and conflicts were serious. After saying these premises, Chen Shuipian continued to say the content: "At that time, the confrontation and competition between the two camps of the East and the West was very serious, from sending spies to Star Wars, and comparing each other in various fields. So there was the Soviet side's experiment on the orcs, and the United States was not to be left behind, restarting the fire phoenix scientific research experiment, so at the end of the seventies, the vague shadow of the fire phoenix was finally photographed again. ”

I tilted my head and thought for a moment: "No, since it's already been filmed, why didn't you make a big splash?" Is this better news than the suspicious moon landing? Chen Shuipian nodded and said with a wry smile: "Yes, at that time, referring to the comparative data, scientists even roughly calculated the height and length of this firebird...... However, if the news of the discovery of this firebird is spread, at most it will cause some effects similar to the Loch Ness Monster, and the impact on the overall battle situation will not be very great. At this time, the Americans re-opened the report of the classmate who started the Fire Phoenix research project, re-examined the evaluation of high-temperature physics and technology, and finally decided to stay on hold and continue to explore. For the next twenty years, nothing was achieved until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 90 and the end of the Cold War. ”

I let out a long sigh when I heard it, and I really didn't think that there were many twists and turns in things. However, I soon realized that something was wrong, and this time I didn't need to ask, Chen Shuipian said directly: "The observatory and the famous eight-meter telescope here are built and managed by a consortium of the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Chile, Brazil, Argentina and Australia. However, in 2007, the British government was forced to terminate the payment of membership fees to the Gemini Observatory due to arrears of up to US$16 trillion in foreign debt, resulting in a huge financial gap in the overall operation of the Gemini Observatory. ”

Sun Hongxu smiled and said: "I understand, Lao Mei took the opportunity to pretend to be a good person, anyway, they can print money without restrictions, and they don't care about printing a little more, so they will print out the British arrears of the Gemini Observatory by the way, so that the people of the world will pay." ”

Chen Shuipian nodded awkwardly: "Almost...... However, in the end, British astronomers did not return to the area for scientific research, and the Americans redeployed their scientists and launched the Fire Phoenix research program again. This time, it is said that a private chaebol joined in, saying that they wanted to catch one and return it to the exhibition......"

Depend on! Now we were all stunned, how bold and prolific people are! Something is on everyone's mind! Even the Fire Phoenix has people who want to catch it...... I rolled my eyes: "You're the one sent by the private chaebol, right?" Biologist, hehe, really apply what you have learned. Chen Shuipian nodded shamefully, admitting it.

I said angrily: "Then you dare to think about things without a shadow?" I haven't come out once for decades, and here, it's still full of fire, and you're going to catch it? ”

Chen Shuipian pointed to a room next to him: "There are all kinds of radar receiving devices here, we have set up a lot of radars on the side of Kilauea Volcano, as long as that firebird appears again, it will definitely not be able to run...... We have developed a fireproof giant net that can be shot out to catch prey, and once it touches the target, the giant net will immediately retract. The entire installation was housed in an F15 fighter jet and docked at Ford Island Air Base...... As for the distribution of profits between the US government and the private chaebols in this cooperation, I don't know......"

I asked him to roughly describe the appearance of the hunting net catapult, then turned back to Jian Tianhan and said, "Little sword, send a telegram to the brother who stayed on Ford Island to confirm whether there is still that F15 fighter." Jian Tianhan nodded, ticking the report, and after a while, Ford Island called back: "Yes!" ”

Hey! Originally, I thought it was to watch and listen to ghost stories, but Mary's next door actually has it, it seems that Americans are not only idle eggs, but also a little naïve to take it for granted...... Just as he was crying and laughing, he suddenly saw Chen Shuipian's eyes widen, looking blankly at the room with the radar receiver, and he was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Chen Shuipian was startled by my question, pointed to the room, and was inexplicably shocked: "I seem to hear a signal...... I paused: "What signal...... Yes? A signal for the appearance of the fire phoenix? Chen Shuipian was at a loss: "I'm not sure...... But I'd like to go over and see ......."

This also used him to say, I waved my hand, Lu Hu and Wu Shuyuan one by one, and drove Chen Shuipian to the room, and the rest of us followed closely behind, and when we got to the house, there were display screens everywhere. Chen Shuipian stood in the middle of the room, looking east and west, dumbfounded and at a loss, as if he was stupid.

When I saw it, I said angrily, "What are you doing in a daze?" Is the Fire Phoenix really here? "Isn't his grandmother's old flower luck so good? They had been guarding for almost a hundred years, and they had only seen each other twice. I've been here for less than twenty minutes, and I can catch the fire phoenix with my own hands?

Chen Shuipian opened his mouth and said in a changed tone, "I'm not sure if it's a fire phoenix...... However, in the area where the fire phoenix once haunted, there are indeed suspicious signals......" I asked with a frown, "Haven't you been waiting for the fire phoenix?" I'm really waiting for one, why is it like pulling a pants of yes? Chen Shuipian said with a sad face: "It's not one...... It's a group of fire phoenixes......"

We were all startled, and looked at one of the computer monitors in the direction of his finger, only to see a dozen white dots densely appearing on a picture full of red and yellow patches. I shouted at the top of my voice, "What is this place?" ”

Chen Shuipian was jumped by me: "Kilauea Volcanic Crater......" I quickly turned back to look at Sun Hongxu, no need to ask, Sun Hongxu nodded directly to me, I didn't doubt it, turned around and shouted to Jian Tianhan: "Xiaojian, send a telegram to Ford Island, let Xu Ningqiao send the F15 fighter with a hunting net catapult canister to take off immediately, target the Kilauea Volcanic Mouth, and prepare to capture the fire phoenix alive." ”

Jian Tianhan sent a telegram to Ford Island, Sun Hongxu grabbed Chen Shuipian's shoulder and pressed him into the chair in front of the display screen, and said, "From now on, fully cooperate with us to catch the fire phoenix." After thinking about it, he added: "Unless you want to be beaten again." When Chen Shuipian heard this, he quickly sat up straight and looked at the screen.

was nervous, Zuo Jia pinched something and walked into the room: "Lao Hua, look at what this thing is?" I just glanced at it and said, "Where did you find the golden bean?" The psychological side was in a hurry to catch the fire phoenix, and he didn't have time to pay attention to her, so he waved his hand casually: "If you like it, you can play with it, you don't have to tell me......"

Zuo Jia didn't speak, but directly put the golden bean into my hand, she looked at my increasingly shocked eyes, and asked: "Have you noticed it, the weight of this little thing is very large, I estimate that it is at least ten times heavier than gold......" After all, he did not forget his duty as a teacher, and seized the opportunity to give me popular science: "The heaviest metal known platinum, under the same volume, will not be twice as high as gold." ”

I held this little golden metal nugget, and I was speechless. (To be continued.) )
