Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Wind Will Rise
Returning home like sleepwalking, Isaac looked at his familiar room, and his mind was empty for a moment. The divorce agreement on the table made him realize that his warm married life was really over.
"Damn life!" Annoyed, he threw his briefcase on the couch, as well as the tablet wrapped in newspaper on the carpet. Why are you so stupid that even an old man selling antiques can deceive himself? Isaac grabbed his hair in chagrin.
His life wasn't supposed to be like this, what went wrong? The unsuccessful career and the betrayal of his wife made him feel that his life was clouded.
On TV, CNN is broadcasting the latest news about the recent dispute over gun control, as well as the war of words between countries over trade barriers, and of course, as a financial practitioner, Isaac has also been very concerned about the financial risks that have just emerged recently. But at this moment, he looked at the TV with blank eyes, and was not moved by what the host said.
At this moment, he figured it out, the official bigwigs, you sang and I appeared on the stage, the gongs and drums were noisy, and the slogans were thunderous, but the end was in one sentence, I said mine, you do yours, we are not at the same frequency at all.
"Don't listen to what he says, see what he does! From the country to the office, and even the life of husband and wife, it is actually the same. Isaac suddenly realized how plausible the joke of his best friend Grove when he first started his career was, and it was simply a wise quote.
"If only it could start all over again." Isaac shook his head and thought, but he also knew it wasn't possible.
"Want to change your life?"
A distant voice suddenly sounded in my head.
"Who!" Isaac jerked up from the couch and glanced around warily, trying to find the damn man hiding in his room.
"No, you don't have to be afraid, my arrival will only change your failed life......"
"Ahh Under Isaac's horrified gaze, the stone tablet he had dropped on the carpet floated, and the layer of newspaper on the outside was blown off by the wind, revealing the white and immaculate body inside, and the words engraved on it were said to be more than 2,000 years ago, and at this moment it was emitting a bright silver light.
"God, is it really like the antique boss said, this is a stone tablet to dispel diseases and eliminate disasters?"
Isaac swallowed, his face frightened, but deep down, there was a power surging in his heart that longed for change.
……
Riverside University, Fu Li crutches back to the dormitory, his roommates are not there, he threw the stone tablet he picked up from the back mountain on the ground. Just as he was about to do some research, a sudden wave of sleepiness hit him, and he yawned and threw himself into bed.
In the dream, he seemed to see a kind old man with a white beard and white hair, the old man's lips were lightly closed, as if to transmit something to him, and then with a little hand, he pointed him in the direction.
What a dream!
The same thing happened at the UCAS school building, after returning from Qinghai Lake, Hou Ziyi and Du Qing returned to the school non-stop, and then closed the door of the room, and the two gathered together, holding a magnifying glass and constantly studying the inscription on the stone tablet.
"Monkey, the words on this are indeed small seals, I took a photo of each word on it and consulted it on the Internet, you see, this is a translated text."
"Heavenly ...... Road...... Monument, there are ...... Margin...... He who...... Get...... It. ”
"This is something God gave us?"
"Is there really a god in this world?"
Hou Ziyi and Du Qing opened their mouths, they had witnessed the stone tablet falling from the sky, so naturally they would not suspect that someone was playing a prank on them.
Besides, if anyone has the ability to play such a prank with them, they admire it.
But there is really a god in this world, which has shattered the worldview they have shaped for more than 20 years.
Just as the two looked at each other, suddenly a white light shot out from the stone tablet, and then split in two, submerging into the foreheads of the two.
……
In a beautiful girl's room, two bodies are entangled, and young men and women are in love, doing things they like. Suddenly, just as the woman made a sound, the stone tablet placed in a cardboard box in the corner of the room suddenly floated up.
The woman's misty eyes widened suddenly, trying to remind her boyfriend, but before she could speak, her eyes suddenly went dark.
……
At this time.
In the Golden Autumn Garden, in a conference room, the atmosphere is very solemn.
Elder No. 1 looked at the rest of the elders silently, and the ashtray in front of him was already full of extinguished cigarette butts.
"Everyone must know the seriousness of this matter......
After a while, Elder No. 1 spoke with a solemn face.
"At present, there are a total of six steles that have been discovered in China, and these steles are being sent to nearby military bases and scientific research centers one after another."
"Originally, the local cultural relics department did not pay much attention to the cultural relics handed over by the citizens, but thought that some enthusiastic citizens had been seduced by counterfeit dealers. But those who handed in the cultural relics all said that these stone tablets fell from the sky, one of them may be a coincidence, but two or three of them said this, so they realized that there was probably something strange in it. ”
"What happened later also scared them. At present, the security services have blocked the news, and all those involved have been questioned by special personnel. ”
"Heavenly Dao Monument, it should be right to say that, right?" Elder No. 2 took a breath, curiosity on his face.
"According to the decipherment of antiquarians, it is the name that is correct." Elder Number One nodded.
"The report says that this Heavenly Dao Monument will float in the air, and eight people from the cultural relics department who have come into contact with them have fallen into a coma?"
"Yes, this incident has seriously shocked our common sense, and it has been investigated as a core confidential matter! As for the eight people in a coma, all of them have been arranged to be observed and treated in the relevant military hospitals. ”
"It seems that these steles are indeed very strange."
Everyone was silent, and one of the elders said, "At present, there are a total of six Heavenly Dao Tablets in our possession, so are there more Heavenly Dao Tablets scattered among the people?" In other parts of the world, are there similar stone monuments falling? ”
"I don't know about this......"
At this point, the topic is at an impasse.
All the elders stared their faces quietly, and suddenly felt that in this world, I am afraid that there is a kind of limelight that is about to come.
……
White House, Oval Office.
President Annelin looked at the CCTV with an incredulous expression, his messy hair like a chicken coop had been scratched even more by him: "God, it's incredible. ”
"Mr. President, at present, we have searched for five similar stone tablets engraved with ancient Chinese characters across the country, and I am afraid that this has to attract our attention."
"That's right, you really need to pay attention to it!" President Anelin nodded repeatedly, "God, this is crazy. ”
"Derek, why do you say that there have been strange things lately, why didn't these things happen during the previous president's tenure?"
"Mr. President, I don't know about that." Derek shook his head.
"It seems that our beliefs in the past are still not religious, it is incredible, maybe God and his old man really exist."
President Annelin began to walk around his office, and suddenly, he made a decision: "This matter must have something to do with Huaguo, even if it has nothing to do with them now, it must have something to do with their ancestors!" Derek, prepare a special line for me at once, I'm going to talk to their Elder One. ”
"Okay, I'll arrange it!"
Derek said, going to make arrangements.
"Wait, contact our allies a little more, I don't believe they didn't get the stele there!"
