Chapter 17: The Hand of Satan
Liu Yuenan was still calm, the two looked at each other for a long time, and with a sigh, Dong Yiran finally admitted that she had failed, in front of this seemingly familiar stranger in front of her, she actually lost her usual calmness, which made her very angry.
In fact, she herself understands that the reason she said before is very far-fetched, as long as she is not the kind of person who is purely greedy for her beauty, she probably won't accept it.
With a self-deprecating chuckle, Dong Yiran took out her communicator, calmed down, she never lacked calmness, and after a fluent operation, she handed the communicator to Liu Yuenan.
He whispered, "I can show you a few satellite pictures, maybe I can make you think about something?" β
Liu Yuenan frowned slightly, a little confused, and a little curious, took the communicator, looked at it carefully, and found that it was a few Xinghai charts, gorgeous and mysterious, but it was incomprehensible.
Dong Yiran leaned over and explained softly beside him: "These satellite images record the changes in the solar system in the past ten years, what mystery can you see?" β
Liu Yuenan nodded noncommittally, pointed to one of the satellite images and asked, "What year was this taken?" β
Dong Yiran glanced at it and replied, "It should have been five years ago?" β
Liu Yuenan flipped back, and Dong Yiran said again: "Four years ago, three years ago, two years ago, just filmed." β
"What do you think this strange nebula looks like?" Dong Yiran looked at the last satellite image and asked Liu Yuenan.
Liu Yuenan replied calmly: "If you only look at the shape and ignore the others, then this strange nebula is very much like a giant black hand, which comes from the sky, as if it wants to pick up a star in the solar system. β
This metaphor is so apt that some call it the hand of Satan."
"The Hand of Satan?" Liu Yuenan was surprised, and asked again, "Is there any deep meaning?" β
"Of course, Satan is known as a fallen angel or a devil in the Western 'Bible', which foreshadows disaster and ominousness."
Liu Yuenan nodded, thought for a while, thought of a certain possibility, suddenly felt frightened, and hurriedly asked: "You mean to say that the various changes that have occurred on the earth at present may be related to this strange 'hand'?" β
Dong Yiran nodded solemnly, and added: "I have already said before, this is just a conjecture, maybe right, maybe wrong, at least at present, I can't be 100% sure." β
After thinking about it, Dong Yiran said metaphorically: "If we imagine the solar system as a fish tank, then if someone suddenly stretches out his hand into the tank, what do you think will happen?" β
Liu Yuenan felt that this metaphor was very novel and interesting, so he thought about it seriously and replied: "Although I can't catch anything substantive for a while, that peace must have been suddenly broken, and some ripples and turmoil were caused by this, and I don't know?" β
Dong Yiran looked at Liu Yuenan and nodded appreciatively, obviously Liu Yuenan's answer made her very satisfied.
So, she continued: "Ten years ago, when that strange nebula flowed into the solar system, it was keenly captured by satellites in space, and it coincided very well with the time when black mountains grew on the western land, so some people speculated that there might be some mysterious connection between the two. β
Liu Yuenan nodded, since the calm has been broken and the ripples have already waved, it is natural that some mysterious turmoil will occur, but why did that mysterious nebula flow into the solar system, and in the past ten years, it has not disappeared, and it has also formed some kind of mysterious trajectory, could it be that the black 'giant hand' really wants to take away a certain star in the solar system?
"There are relevant international organizations that have made precise calculations on the trajectory of that strange nebula, and have come to a shocking conclusion, if that strange nebula is really a giant hand that has penetrated into the fish tank, then the star he wants to take away may be the earth." Dong Yiran sighed and said such a weak sentence.
Liu Yuenan's heart palpitated suddenly, he couldn't bear the trembling in his heart, and asked urgently, "What do you mean?" The ultimate target of that strange nebula could be Earth? β
"Not a possibility, but a necessity, don't you understand? The earth has entered the 'last days', and the peace we once had will be reduced to nothing and dust as that ray of fog approaches the earth. β
Dong Yiran's emotions suddenly got out of control, and he roared.
Liu Yuenan's heart was shocked, and he instantly thought of such a sentence.
"The earth's aura is about to dry up, the world will usher in a great change, and the long-standing evolutionary rules of all things will be broken, thus opening a new bloodline inheritance, or returning to the earliest and primitive state, or opening the god and demon genes, obtaining incredible mysterious energy, in short, a brilliant and vast era is about to slowly open with the advent of that wisp of mist."
This was the warning that the two immortal cultivators had given to Liu Yuenan before they left the earth, and he had never been able to figure out what 'that wisp of mist' meant?
Now listening to Dong Yiran's sudden roar, he actually has a feeling of enlightenment, which seems unbelievable at the same time, but he is also logical and calm.
This surprised Dong Yiran, and then became annoyed, she sneered and mocked: "Do you be naΓ―ve to think that the end of the world without zombies is not the real end of the world, right?" β
Liu Yuenan didn't answer, just looked at Dong Yiran calmly, because he found that Dong Yiran's understanding of the great changes in this world was far deeper than him, she may really know some truths, but because of some unspeakable rules, so it was inconvenient for her to speak directly, but at the same time, Liu Yuenan also knew that according to Dong Yiran's temperament, if she really wanted to tell herself some truth, then she didn't need to ask.
"In fact, from the moment that strange nebula flows into the solar system, our world has entered the end times, but we don't know it, or we don't want to admit it! You heard it right, in the past infinite years, such an apocalyptic era has happened countless times, the fall of a dynasty, the abandonment of an old era, can be called the end times. β
Not long after, Dong Yiran sighed lightly and made such an explanation.
Liu Yuenan was a little dazed, he never thought that the 'end times' could be so understood, the end of a dynasty and an era was indeed like the end of the world.
"Have you read the I Ching?" Dong Yiran suddenly asked, she didn't seem to want Liu Yuenan to dwell too much on the issue of 'the end of the world', so she quickly adjusted her mentality and directly changed the topic.
Although Liu Yuenan didn't understand what Dong Yiran meant, he still nodded and replied: "After turning it over once or twice, it is difficult to understand and difficult to understand its meaning, so it is dusty." β
