Chapter 40: A Strange Meteor

Sitting up from the bed, Ye Feng pointed to the only daily task on the phone screen.

"Sure to take on daily quests: born treasure hunt experts? Once accepted, it needs to be completed within the stipulated time. Out-of-time tasks automatically fail. ”

"Sure."

The phone screen flashed blue, and real information about this daily task emerged.

"Baoli Auction House is one of the largest auction houses in China, with an annual turnover of about 10 billion, and it is said that it is only one of the many industries in Lingbao Pavilion. At 1 a.m. today, a special monthly auction will be held at Xiamen Baoli Auction House, where 10 precious items will be auctioned within three hours. ”

"The people who participated in this auction house were all special buyers, and at the same time, the items that appeared in the auction were also special items."

"The auction will officially start in half an hour, provided that you are worth 500 million."

After reading the mission introduction, Ye Feng broke out in a cold sweat: "System, are you forcing me to rob the bank!?" ”

There was still half an hour left before one o'clock in the morning, and he did not rush to leave, but began to think about how to raise 500 million in a short period of time.

In a suite next to Ye Feng, two naked figures were moving one after the other on the huge Simmonxi bed, and the latest news was playing on the 70-inch wall-mounted TV opposite the bed.

CCTV News: The third meteor shower in 2018 will appear at 1:15 a.m. today, this is one of the three major meteor showers in the Northern Hemisphere, the "Perseid meteor shower", the average hourly zenith flow of the meteor shower can reach 120, if the night sky visibility is good, people can enjoy the wonderful scene of beautiful meteors crossing the night sky. ”

The vast starry sky is so vast that even the highest technology mastered by the humans of the earth cannot detect the edge of the universe. The stars in the universe also seem to be set and move according to a fixed route.

A great scientist has determined whether the universe is a supercomputer, and that human beings are just a piece of code in a huge, boundless computer.

Humans are already the race at the top of the food chain, and they are also the only advanced intelligent life forms on this planet. In the thousands of years of human evolution, many things in the universe have been discovered and mastered by them. Although the lifespan of human beings is very short, and they do not even see a meteor once in a lifetime, those meteor showers that only appear once in decades or hundreds of years are still known and recorded by human beings.

"The Perseid meteor shower seems to be a month earlier than usual."

In the observation room of the Zilong Observatory in Yanjing City, thousands of kilometers away from Bac Giang Province, an old man with gray hair frowned.

The old man is about eighty years old, but he looks old, but he has a temperament that is not angry and arrogant, making people who face him feel like facing an old general commanding thousands of troops.

"Grandpa, it's a little strange, it stands to reason that the Perseid meteor shower has never arrived in advance in the past hundred years, could it be that a galaxy exploded, which affected the original trajectory of the meteorite?" The girl in a purple dress standing next to the old man was also puzzled.

"Forget it, it's a rare meteor shower, let's not guess here, let's leave professional things to professional people to study." When the old man heard the words of the girl next to him, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled heartily.

"That's right." The old man suddenly thought of something, and suddenly turned to look at a middle-aged man in military uniform standing not far behind him and asked, "Why didn't this monkey grandson Dabao come?" ”

Hearing this, the man in military uniform with a straight body showed a helpless look on his face, and said with a dry smile: "Dad, isn't Dabao finished this college entrance examination!" So I went to Beijiang to visit the school in advance. ”

"You! Just get used to him! If it is according to Lao Tzu's meaning, he should be allowed to go to the army for training! A trace of anger flashed in the old man's eyes, and he spoke.

The middle-aged man in the military uniform looked more and more embarrassed, and thought to himself, If it weren't for your old man's habit, I would have thrown him into the army a long time ago.

Seeing that the old man and the middle-aged man were not speculative, the purple-clothed girl on the side showed shallow dimples on her face, and then pulled the old man's sleeve and pursed her lips and persuaded: "Grandpa, don't talk about the second uncle, since Brother Bao doesn't want to be a soldier, let him go to college in Beijiang, anyway, there is no other top student in our family!" ”

"Nanxi, don't say good things for your uncompetitive cousin. If he hadn't been angry, your grandfather and I wouldn't have licked this old face and occupied the seat under the ass without moving the ground. The old man shook his head and said in a ashamed tone.

Hearing the old man's words, the middle-aged man's face couldn't help but turn red. He knew in his heart that if there was no old man on it, the Yanjing Lu family would really decline.

"Grandpa, look! The meteor shower has begun! ”

The girl called Nan Xi by the old man suddenly pointed to the night sky excitedly and said to the old man.

Following the girl's pointing to the tender white lotus arm of the starry sky opposite, the old man also turned his head and opened his eyes that had been a little cloudy after the vicissitudes of life, looking at the Perseid meteor shower that pierced the sky through the sky with one by one, like a rain of fire.

"In the cold autumn of independence, the Xiangjiang River goes north, and the orange island is headed.

Look at the mountains red all over, the forests are dyed; The river is clear and transparent, and hundreds of boats compete for the stream.

The eagle strikes the sky, the fish soars to the shallow bottom, and all kinds of frost compete freely.

Confused, ask the vast earth, who is the master of ups and downs?

Bring hundreds of couples to travel. Reminiscing about the past, the years are thick.

Just a young classmate, in his prime; The scholar was angry and scolded Fang Xuan.

Pointing to the country, inspiring words, the dung was ten thousand households.

Have you ever remembered that when you hit the water in the middle of the stream, the waves curb the flying boat? ”

。。。。。。

Looking at the scene in front of him, the old man's cloudy eyes were a little moist, he closed his eyes, and gently chanted the poems of Taizu, and the distant memories and those comrades-in-arms who had long been forgotten in the long river of history appeared in front of him.

After a while, the middle-aged man waved his hand to beckon two young soldiers in military uniforms of the same size, and then whispered to the old man in front of him: "Dad, it's not too early, it's time to go back and rest." Nanxi. ”

Seeing the middle-aged man's eyes on her, the purple-clothed girl understood, and immediately held the old man's arm, and then said to the old man like a coquette: "Grandpa, go back quickly, I still want to hear you tell me about your previous battles!" ”

"Okay, well, go back and talk about it, go back and talk about it."

Not far away, watching his niece help his old man into the elevator, the middle-aged man shook his head with a little crying and laughing, thinking that with his old man's temper, only his precious niece could be subdued.

Seeing the old man and the girl in purple entering the elevator under the escort of two young soldiers, the middle-aged man also walked quickly towards the elevator.

The elevators closed slowly, but at the moment of closing, a look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the purple-clothed girl.

She seemed to see through the gaps in the elevators the sky above the huge dome glass, and another red meteor streaked across the sky, heading north.

"Is it a hallucination?" As the elevator door closed, the red, somewhat bewitching meteor disappeared into the eyes of the purple-clothed girl.
