Chapter 4: The Secret of Carbon-Based Experiments
It was already dark when I left the police station. It was at the end of the sixth month of the lunar calendar, when there was no light pollution, that we found that there would be so many stars in the sky with thief light, and one or several of them were staring at us.
Grace and Sudy got back into the car, thinking about what had just happened, and feeling more and more frightened. I'm afraid no one will believe what happened to the two of them, let alone aliens and the like, and the only thing I can rely on now is myself.
"What's next? Dr. Lee? Sudi complained.
If we give up, the subconscious distress and the fear of a pair of eyes staring at us will stay with us for the rest of our lives! Instead of suffering for a lifetime, it is better to find out today. ”
"What a Shandong man! Let's go! "That's exactly what Sudi wants.
Sudi kicked the accelerator and returned to the house the same way.
"It's here, but do you have a plan? How did the two of us get into the mountain? Excavators, or *? Or was Dr. Lee born with the art of earth escape? And we haven't eaten seriously for more than 12 hours, so we can't go hungry even if we're ghosts! "What Sudi said is not unreasonable, this huge mountain, how can you enter it without the help of tools.
"When has this been, still poor! I didn't have a plan, I just came to try my luck. I'm also a little hungry, so why don't I make do with it. ”
The two of them tossed over the food reserved in the car, and all they could eat were down, but Xun Xuan still ate less, he looked very anxious, but Su Di seemed to be just a trip.
"I hate mosquitoes the most in my life, I brought so much mountaineering equipment but forgot to bring mosquito repellent, let's feed the mosquitoes tonight." Sudi collects her climbing supplies while keeping mosquitoes away.
"And let's try our luck to see if there is a direction, won't we climb the mountain aimlessly?"
"There is a cliff on the east side of the top of the house, the cliff is more than 100 meters high, and we have seen it on the east side. There is a cave in the middle of the cliff, and it is said that some people found stone benches and stone tables in the cave, which is called the fairy cave. We first ascended to the top, and then descended to the fairy cave. ”
"It's night, and the rappelling is too dangerous. But scholars dare, and I, a rough man, don't care anymore. Sudi was cheering for Sen all the time.
Although the house is a famous mountain in the local area, but undeveloped, the road up the mountain is only the trail that has been stepped out by tourists for many years, and occasionally there are a few stone steps in the early years, it is estimated that it is also before liberation, built for the temple on the top of the mountain, and now the temple and the relics stupa only leave the ruins, and a deep underground palace. It is said that the relics stupa can look at the East China Sea to the east, and can see the whole picture of Jucheng to the west, so the relics stupa is also called Wanghai Tower.
At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, a cloud-wandering monk released Tanjing, passed by here in the early morning, suddenly saw the Buddha on the top of the mountain, and vowed to set up a temple on the top of the mountain to offer Buddha. After several years, a small temple was erected on the top of the house, called: Foguang Temple. The scale of the Foguang Temple is not unusual, but only a seven-storey pagoda is built, standing on the top of the house, and it is very spectacular from afar.
Legend has it that the relics of high monks are enshrined in the tower. Attract a radius of 100 miles of good men and women to worship the Buddha. Foguang Temple has flourished for hundreds of years, but its scale has never expanded. During the Republic of China, there were frequent wars, coupled with the invasion of Japanese invaders, the monks of Foguang Temple fled one after another, and the temple gradually declined. In the sixties and seventies, for some special reasons, the nearby villagers demolished the temples and pagodas, and transported the bricks and stones home to build pig houses and the like. During the Kangxi period, there was an earthquake with the largest magnitude ever recorded, and the pagoda did not collapse, but it was destroyed in an instant by a group of angry people.
At night, their vision was blocked, and it took them an hour to climb to the top of the house. The breeze was gentle and cooler. On the top of the platform, there is nothing but the ruins of the ancient temple, because it is a stone platform, there are no large trees, and a few clusters of wild grasses or small shrubs are dotted in the rock crevices. The grasshopper seems to be playing a send-off song, from the beginning of the mountain climb to the top of the mountain has not stopped, but now it is quiet, and the sound is more and more crisp. Occasionally, there are a few "kaka" nightingales chirping, or chilling "cooing" owls.
"I'm tired, why don't you rest for a while." Sudy found what she thought was a clean spot and sat down.
"Which star civilization do you say is staring at the two of us, and the light of my flashlight will not blind their eyes temporarily?" Sudy fiddled with her flashlight and shone it into the dark night sky, laughing at herself.
"Childhood summer, that is, at this time, the summer vacation is generally sent back to the hometown by the parents, grandparents will take the mat to chat with the neighbors on the wheat field after dinner, at that time I especially like this leisurely, lying on the mat on my back, listening to the old man has talked about the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl countless times, looking at the Milky Way in the sky and the Aquila and Weaver Girl who are given too much emotion. But now it seems that I always feel cold, even fearful. Every star is an eye, staring at us all the time. ”
When you get rid of anything that you don't know about it, all illusions disappear, and all good possibilities disappear. Sometimes ignorance is happiness.
After resting for a while, they prepared to rappel, because they didn't know the specific location of the cave, so they could only start descending from the middle of the cliff first, and use the drone to find the cave with the help of a flashlight. She is "fully armed" and goes first, while Sudi is on the top of the cliff ready to respond to emergencies and control drones to find caves. The first rappelling was unyielding.
The second time, moving twenty meters to the south, when Xun Jue descended to about 60 meters away from the top of the cliff, Su Di called through his mobile phone: "Shen Jue, please pay attention to a black hole in the lower left of you, pay attention!" "There is indeed a hole with a diameter of about 1.5 meters in the lower left of the cave, and she first lowers herself to a parallel position with the hole, and then slowly climbs over it.
The hole is not deep, it is only seven or eight meters deep. She quickly scanned the cave with a flashlight, and there was nothing but a stone table and a stool.
"Sudi, you can also come down, this may be the Immortal Cave."
For more than ten minutes, Sudi also descended into the hole. The two stopped at the end of the cave and looked closely at the walls of the cave and the stone tables and benches. The traces of artificial excavation of the cave are obvious,
"Which ancient man do you think this will be idle and living in a hole here?"
"This is a lot of work and difficulty that cannot be done by one person." Echo should be reconciled.
"I don't think there's anything special about this cave, and it may be in vain again." Sudy sat down directly on the stone bench. But at this moment, a strong light shot out from the bottom of the stone bench, illuminating the entire cave, and Sudi was frightened and wanted to get up and leave the stone bench, but her body seemed to be stuck to the stone bench and could not get up.
"Treat me!"
She reached out and grabbed Sudy's arm, but to no avail, Sudy's body quickly became more and more transparent, and suddenly disappeared, and the beam of light disappeared with it. Except for the sentence "Save me." Sudy didn't have time to say a second sentence.
She was panicked, but she couldn't hold back her excitement, after all, she was one step closer to decryption. The stone bench is supposed to be a teleporter. Once you sit on the stone bench, you will definitely disappear in an instant like Sudy, and go to another place to solve the mystery that has lingered for a long time. But once you go in and can't come back, you lose everything you have now, and what is the difference between death and death. Although she had already made up her mind, she would sit on the stone bench and follow Su Di closely.
All his emotions at this time were not because of fear, but because he missed his relatives and friends and the experience of more than 20 years: he had not had time to honor his parents and elders; Some people haven't had time to thank them; The project has not yet been reported in the interim period; And the oranges that I can't forget......
Tears of reluctance flowed from the corners of his eyes, and he raised his head to try not to make himself more embarrassed. It is believed that these tears can only be seen at the time of parting with life and death.
He took out a pen and paper and wrote on the paper: At 22:29 on August 17, 2039, Su Di and Li Taohui went to another unknown world through the stone bench. If they really can't come back, maybe they will be rescued later through the note man.
