PS: PS: Yes. I have always believed that imagination is the greatest wealth and ability of human beings.

=========================================================================

I sighed. "I know. But it was a terrible situation, we were almost on edge, and the words caught up, and I blurted out. Lao Cao, I didn't expect them to know nothing and treat them like this

Isn't it going to kill them? ”

"Take care of others, think about yourself first. What did you reveal? To what extent? Forget it, where are you? We met and said. ”

"What about the hall on the first floor, the revolving door."

"You wait for me, I'll go out immediately."

Cao Mingzhe hurriedly walked out of the banquet hall, did not stop when he greeted me, but gestured to the revolving door with his chin, and then walked past me and left the hotel directly through the revolving door

Hall.

As soon as I saw Cao Mingzhe's situation, I casually said the secret of Lop Nur, which seemed to be more serious than I thought. But I don't regret it, even if I have a chance to do it all over again, I will still do it

out of this choice. This is determined by my personality and is not controlled by thoughts.

In the depths of winter, there are few pedestrians on the streets, and although the afternoon sun shines unobstructed, it still can't withstand the chill brought by the cold wind. The bad thing is that Cao Mingzhe actually took me to the one not far from the hotel

A small park, where there is no wind on all sides, and I feel that I may freeze to death if I talk here.

"Let's go." Through this proposal, it can be seen that Cao Mingzhe is also frozen enough.

"That is, you may not be able to get up when you sit down."

The park is not large, and there is a cement paved walking trail around the park. When the weather is good, especially in the morning and evening, there are many surrounding citizens who sprint or jog here. Of course, now there is no one, no

Someone will come out after lunch to work out.

The trees on both sides of the road do not play a role in blocking the wind, and they also do not block the sun. The dead branches have been pruned, and only some very thick branches remain. Above us was a very high blue sky in the summer

At that time, the sky above this trail is covered by the branches and foliage of huge trees on both sides.

"What did you say to the members of the panel of scientists?" After the two of us walked side by side, Cao Mingzhe asked his concerns.

"They wanted to win me over and seize the leadership of the expedition." I first told Cao Mingzhe about it.

"It's not a problem, as soon as you go underground, they're a flock of quails, and you're just kneeling and giving them leadership. They didn't dare to ask for it. The question is what you say and how deep you say. ”

"Okay." I shrugged my shoulders and repeated what I had said to the group of scientists to Cao Mingzhe.

"Enough trouble. You didn't name Company Commander Li. ”

"Nope. I just said the names of two materials scientists. I didn't even say Company Commander Li's surname, I just said that a soldier died in front of my eyes. ”

Cao Mingzhe frowned and thought for a while. "This matter will soon be stabbed to the top, the military, especially the number one leader, will soon find you on the head, you have to be mentally prepared. It's a big deal

It's not small. But this will be embarrassing for the military, and I fear they will turn their anger on you because of it. You have to hurry up and make some of the information public, so that you are not subject to maximum liability.

Fortunately, you did not disclose the identity of Company Commander Li, otherwise, it would be difficult to exonerate you. That involves military secrets. ”

"The team of scientists didn't reveal any information to me, they didn't even give me any explanation. Including the information of that piece of iron. ”

"Those old antiques keep a hand on everyone, and they also didn't provide me with more information, just thinking about taking my power, spooning and dripping (very), thinking that going to Lop Nur is a tourist pinch."

"Lao Cao. It's all here, don't you want to say something to me? Like that piece of iron. What the hell is it? What does it represent? After studying for so long, you won't have nothing

Harvest it. ”

Cao Mingzhe was silent. The two of us walked silently on the trail with no shade and only a biting cold wind.

After walking for a long time, Cao Mingzhe suddenly stopped.

"Actually, the research results on that piece of iron are mainly in the hands of the Academy of Sciences, and I and the military don't know much. And it's mostly speculation. But there is one thing we agree on, that piece of iron, not nature

What has been formed is not what we can achieve with our current technology. In other words, to put it more easily, that piece of iron represents a civilization that is beyond us. ”

"Alien civilizations?"

"That's one of the possibilities. We believe that it represents another civilization that once appeared on Earth. You know, this round of earth civilization represented by human beings is just a bomb relative to the earth

Refers to things in between. From the Quaternary to the Tertiary, Cretaceous, Jurassic and all the way up to the Cambrian. What about going further? Precambrian? We are archaeologists, and we all know that it is only an archaeological form of stratigraphy

into a concept. But in those strata, too, there are some mysteries that remain unsolved to this day. There are discoveries in our country, and there are them in other places, but they are not public. ”

"Lao Cao, what you said is too mysterious. The earth and even the solar system have only been formed for billions of years, and the appearance of life on the earth should be a very small and extremely small probability, and it is only today that human civilization has been produced. How can I believe that there were other civilizations before human civilization? What about that civilization? Evaporated? ”

"I can't answer that question. But I advise you not to fully trust modern science. I'm not a science major, but I know what the foundation of modern physics is, you know? It's a guess. Whenever there is a physical phenomenon that they can't explain, they speculate about the phenomenon, of course, they don't say that, they call it a hypothesis. Actually, it's the same thing.

It's like the Big Bang theory that is currently in vogue. Nothing, and then with a 'bang', the universe came into being. Oh, singularity, there's a singularity. The most is the singularity, you know how they are

Explain that thing? The mass is infinitely large, and the volume is infinitely small. The mass of the entire universe is in that small proton-like singularity.

Xiao Zhang, I'm not denying physics. I mean you have to have the courage to deny and overthrow others, imagination is the most precious asset of human beings, hehe, I used to call it guessing. Your imagination

What about force? The iron is right in front of you, and it is entirely up to us to guess what it came to and where it came from, and we can't know anything more than that. Maybe there will be something to gain this time. But who knows. ”

"Lao Cao, you told me for a long time that these are all guesses, so what's the value? Isn't this for me? ”

"It's not that I've blinded you, but that some key information is in the hands of a few people, and it is estimated that only a very small number of high-level military officials have this information. However, judging by the attitude of the military, they seem to be on the matter

The level of secrecy was lowered, that is, they believed that this piece of iron and the civilization it represented were of little military value, at least not as much as initially thought. Otherwise, this expedition will not be

Let the Academy of Sciences intervene. ”

"Then what happened to foreign archaeological organizations entering this expedition team? You said that Jack and some organization in Europe would send someone as well. That's too low. ”

"It's some kind of deal at the top. Although this happened in our country, they have some information that we do not yet know, and they exchange it for access to the Lop Nur underground. ”

"What's the message?"

Cao Mingzhe pointed to it. "God knows." (To be continued......)
