CHAPTER XIV
Chapter 14 The Legend of the Mermaid Liu Hong published an article entitled "The Legend of the Mermaid" in the inconspicuous corner of the weekend edition of the "Globe", borrowing from the ancient legend of the East - in the depths of the South Pacific Ocean, there is a mermaid princess who lives on a beautiful coral island, accompanied by a pearl.
One day, the prince of the Dragon Palace of the South China Sea turned into a scholar and took a fishing boat to the coral island, and the sailors on board sealed their ears with gold wax and thought they could not listen to anything; the prince of the South China Sea sat alone on the bow of the boat, the sea and the moon were deep, and the stars were dotted, and he saw the mermaid Ling Boman dancing and singing, and the deep hope of his heart to go to the sea was also burning, and all the ordinary people were not able to listen to it;www.biquge.info

It is said that the prince of the South China Sea is a genius singer among the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas, and no one can match him.
So, he also overwhelmed his opponent with his high South China Sea fishing song tune; The waves parted, and he entered a stone cave at the bottom of the sea, and saw a mermaid guarding a huge pearl, which he estimated to weigh at least three or four hundred kilograms.
The two shells of the mollusk she guarded were half-open, and inside, he saw a pearl as thick as a coconut.
It's a rarity.
Later, the prince of the South China Sea led the shrimp soldiers and crabs to marry the mermaid princess as his wife.
As a result, it has become the pearl of the South China Sea, and shines when night falls.
Of course, this is an Eastern myth.

One evening, Liu Hong came to the Marine Biology Museum again at Mike's invitation.
After a while, Xiao Yu'er carried a porcelain basin on a tray and came in from outside.
"What's that?"
Mike stood up curiously, craned his neck to look, and asked, "Did you make a supper so soon?" β
"Ravioli!"
Xiao Yu'er put the tray on the table, straightened up and said, "I was ready, I knew you would be hungry!" β
Mike reached out and took the porcelain basin down, sniffing it: "Well, it's very fragrant!" How did you come up with the idea of eating ravioli? β
He carefully placed the basin in the center of the table, took the spoon, scooped one, blew it, poured it into his mouth, took a bite and said, "Well, it's delicious!" Great! β
Xiao Yu'er was praised by Mike, very proud, and said with a smile: "I have studied Chinese recipes and Western recipes, and I think Chinese recipes are better and scientifically matched." Westerners eat too much sweets and are prone to gaining weight. Like the Orientals, we sea creatures like vegetables and fruits, which are easier to absorb and digest. β
Liu Hong smelled the fragrance of wontons, couldn't wait for a long time, took the bowl handed over by Mike, hurriedly ate it, felt that the taste was very fresh, there were shrimp and leeks in it, and gave a thumbs up and said, "Great!" Thank you, little fish! You can eat with us too! β
"Hah!"
Xiao Yu'er picked up the bowl, Mike grabbed it, served it to her, and put it in front of Xiao Yu'er respectfully with both hands.
"Let's eat!"
Mike looked at Xiao Yu'er affectionately, nodded, and said in a sincere tone, "It's hard! Thank you! β
Xiao Yu'er was a little frightened, stretched out his hands and just wanted to pick it up, when suddenly someone outside asked loudly: "Xiao Yu'er!" Is there anything else to eat at the Ocean Restaurant? β
Xiao Yu'er was startled, her outstretched hand trembled, she quickly retracted it, turned around and ran out, and said in a greeting, "Yes!" Come in! Welcome! β
Looking at Xiao Yu'er's hurried figure, Mike shook his head with a wry smile, and said helplessly: "She is like this, busy from morning to night, working hard, this is her life." β
"You're lucky."
Liu Hong said, "It is your blessing to meet a good person like Xiao Yuer, who is loyal to you and has a deep affection for you." The undersea man is innocentγγγγγγ β
Mike ate a bowl of ravioli, put the bowl down, wiped his mouth and said, "The more she is like this, the more uneasy I become, and I always feel sorry for her." β
"What are you and Dr. Mary Strong going to Monster Lake on S Island to investigate?"
Liu Hong was afraid of arousing Mike's guilt for Xiao Yu'er again, so she quickly changed the topic and asked casually.
"Submarine cave ants and six-legged monsters."
Mike sat down on the couch and motioned for her to sit down as well, "It's just that something unexpected happened near the waters of S Island, and we encountered an alien flying saucerγγγγγγ After that day, Mary became pregnant inexplicablyγγγγγγ β
"Dr. Strong's friend then went to S Island as well?"
Liu Hong asked him.
βnoοΌβ
Mike shook his head and stroked his stray hair, "That guy's name is Henry, he's an arrogant guy, I don't like him." Dr. Henry is a strange person and a strange subject to research, and he is a monster in the American biological world. β
"How weird?"
Liu Hong smiled and asked with interest, "Is it a crazy guy?"
"Humph!"
Mike snorted in his nose, "That guy is craxy better than craxy!" What a madman! Specializes in the weird stuff. One of the first things Mary did with him was to track fish-like creatures. β
"Huh?"
When Liu Hong heard this, she didn't know what was going on, and asked with a smile, "What 'fishman tracking'?" Could it be that a mermaid from Hokkaido, Japan, ran into the waters near S Island? β
"It's not! No! β
When Mike heard this, he laughed, shook his head again and again, and said, "What are the mermaids caught by fishermen in Hokkaido, Japan, running into the waters of S Island?" It's just an ugly human-faced fish-bodied sea creature. I'm talking about real alien sapient fish-like creatures. β
The fourteenth octopus-like creature tracked Mike took a sip of tea, tasted it, pointed to Liu Hong's teacup and said, "The tea is good!" You try it! β
Liu Hong took a sip, it was indeed very fragrant, nodded and said, "Good tea!" Where are they picked from? β
"Maybe it's made in China."
Mike picked up the teapot, sniffed it, put it down and said, "It is said that these are all hand-picked by the little fish in the morning when the dew is not dry in Penglai Wonderland, and she always likes to entertain her favorite guests with the best green tea." β
"What the hell is going on with the Fish-Man?"
Liu Hong asked, hoping to hear his story.
"You know,"
Mike turned his head and stared at her, and continued thoughtfully, "There's a short section of the story of the alien fish-like creatures of silicon life and the mechanical life of the earth's core exploring the universe. In fact, as far back as 1904, a miner named Brown in the Custer Mountains of California, USA, found a manfield tunnel similar to that of a giant. The cave is a huge chamber locked with huge copper locks, with shields made of gold and never-before-seen objects between the walls, and strange pictures and literature painted on the walls. During World War II, U.S. Army soldier Heber was separated from his comrades in the battle against the Japanese invasion of Burma and was left in the forest, and one day he accidentally found a hole hidden by a boulder, and found that it was illuminated by artificial light sources as bright as day, like a huge underground city. When Heber was looking at it in shock, he was suddenly caught, and he was in a level for four years, and then he desperately tried to escape. According to him, there are seven tunnels leading to the surface in this underground kingdom, each with secret entrances and exits to other parts of the world. For example, in Mexico and the Yucatan Peninsula, there are many magnificent pyramids, which are said to be the works of the Mayans. The grandeur of its scale, the intricate structure of its construction, and even the mystery of its scene are completely comparable to the Egyptian pyramids. Take the Pyramid of the Sun as an example: the base of the tower is 225 meters long and 222 meters wide, which is roughly equal to the pyramid of Khufu in Egypt, basically square, and it is also exactly facing the four directions of the southeast, northwest and south, and the four sides of the tower are also equilateral triangles with the word "gold", and the ratio of the bottom edge to the height of the tower is just equal to the ratio of the circumference to the radius. Their astronomical position was even more frightening: the rays of Sirius, passing through the air channels on the south wall, could reach the heads of the dead who lay dormant in the upper halls; The light of the North Star, passing through the airflow channel on the north wall, can reach the lower hall. The Mayans revered the sun god, who they believed to be the embodiment of the sun god Kukulkan (i.e., the feathered serpent). Only on the afternoon of the spring and autumn equinoxes every year, when the sun is rising, the illuminated part of the north wall, the edges and corners are gradually distinct, and those straight lines are also from top to bottom, forming a wave, as if a flying python descended from the sky, wandering away, as if flying, this scene often made the Mayans excited and crazy. A similar spectacle is seen in the jungles of South America. This kind of artistic illusion caused by the integration of astronomical knowledge, physical knowledge, and architectural knowledge is difficult to imitate even at an ultra-modern level. In 968, a group of scientists attempted to probe the inner workings of these pyramids, and it was puzzling that they had X-rayed the same parts of the pyramids at the same time every day and with the same equipment, and the drawings were identical. When the American anthropologist and explorer D'Oblovic and the journalist Rantin investigated the Yucatan, they found that there were many underground caverns connected by tunnels, and the structure of the tunnels was very similar to the passages inside the pyramids. They took nine photos. However, only one could be printed, and all that was captured in this one was a swirling mysterious white light. Remembering the curse of the creepy pharaoh in the Egyptian tombs, they obediently stopped probing. Coincidentally, on a summer night a few years ago, in a cave halfway up a mountain near Longgong in Anshun County, Guizhou, China, a beam of light shot out in the shape of a barrel with a diameter of four meters, sweeping over a field of 500 meters and shooting straight to the opposite hillside, illuminating the surrounding villages and fields for several minutes. According to the local county records, this kind of wonder also occurred during the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. However, the cave is very familiar to the locals, and the cave is empty, so where does the strong light source come from? Some people may ask, if this underground kingdom really exists, then why don't they go back to the sunny ground to live? There seems to be only one answer: the inhabitants of this subterranean kingdom have lived underground for a long time, or have evolved into thermophilic silicon lifeforms, and can no longer adapt to life on the ground. One thing is for sure, if the underground kingdom really exists, then they must have mastered science and technology higher than that of the surface people, and a series of so-called mysteries such as flying saucers will not be difficult to answer. Regardless of whether there really is an underground kingdom, is the interior of the earth really empty? Many geophysicists believe that the Earth's current weight is a million times that of 6 trillion tons, and that if the Earth's interior were not empty, it would weigh much more. β
"Oh? Is this really possible? β
Liu Hong was not convinced, "I have read similar popular science articles from electronic publications before, and one day in early summer two years ago, I witnessed a green fireball silently piercing the dusk sky at Nanhai Resort. β
