Chapter 563: Why Do People Become Monsters?
I felt more and more that this place was full of dangers, and as we came into contact with more and more secrets, the frequency of attacks would increase, whether this was to kill people or not, as soon as this thought appeared, I suddenly felt a chill in my back.
At this moment, a cool breeze blew in from the outside—the windows were blocked by bookshelves, but the cool breeze could still blow in through the smashed glass.
Everyone calmed down a little, and cautiously gathered in the innermost corner of the house, where it was safer, these houses were all made of stone, and they were all hard granite, so they were very strong, not to mention cold weapons such as crossbow arrows, even machine guns and pistol bullets could not penetrate it.
"Professor Shan, when we talked about the giant rat, the monkey eagle, and the snake, you suddenly said that you know what was going on, and then you told such a long story, but you still haven't solved the mystery, what is going on?" Hongmei, who was thoughtful, asked beside her.
After Hongmei's reminder, we suddenly remembered what we had said before, Professor Shan did say so, but we were all immersed in the long story he told just now, and the sudden attack just now, let us forget about it for the time being.
Because what happened just now was too sudden, and Professor Shan was too involved in telling his experience, so that even his own original thoughts were messed up, and Hongmei's inquiry made him wake up like a dream, slapped his head with his hand, and suddenly said:
"Alas, yes, I just thought of a very important conclusion - there is a connection between the giant rat that suddenly appeared, and the strange snake, and the fleeing monkey eagle, and the two-faced man I mentioned. What is the connection? ”
Professor Shan paused suddenly and pointed in the direction of the crater.
"You mean the meteorite? Is it all about the meteorite? ", Kenya speculated from the side.
Professor Shan nodded, but shook his head again, and after listening to Kenya's speculation, I couldn't help but be a little unimpressed—in fact, most of us had already thought that these monsters should be related to the meteorite, which was not at all Professor Shan's words.
But Professor Shan's next words shocked us.
Professor Shan said thoughtfully: "Well, what Kenya said is right, but what I want to say is a more crucial point - if we people continue to live in this place, we may also become inhuman and ghostly, giant rats, monkey eagles, and snakes, maybe what will happen to us, and a part of our body may become rats, snakes, and even unexpected appearances." ”
Professor Shan's words are creepy to us, but when we think about it, we feel that it is impossible, but looking at Professor Shan's serious face, it doesn't look like a joke. But how is this possible? Even the madman Six and his cousin shook their heads again and again after hearing this, as if they were very disapproving.
"Professor Shan, this is impossible", Sister Li said disapprerovingly, "Mr. Yuan has lived here for decades, and Mr. Chen and his wife have also lived here for a few years, aren't they still normal?" I haven't seen any part of their body deformed, we should be here for a few days, how can we say that they will turn into rats, snakes or whatever, you are kidding."
After listening to Sister Li's words, Professor Shan did not rush to refute, but smiled bitterly, let out a long breath and said, "Oh, Xiao Li, when is it, do I still have the heart to joke?" You're right, but you only know one thing, you don't know the other, have you heard of the half-life of radioactive materials? ”
Listening to Professor Shan's words, we are even more confused, why did Professor Shan suddenly talk about radioactive materials and half-life?
Professor Shan looked at us all at a loss, and then explained in detail: "Everyone also knows that this huge meteorite can produce a special kind of energy, and it is this energy that makes all kinds of strange creatures appear in this mountain, but this energy will also have a half-life, that is, about every hundred years or so, it will burst out with extremely strong energy, and the strength of this energy is at least hundreds of times stronger than usual, or even thousands of times, and this energy has a negative effect on nearby creatures. It's going to have a huge impact..."
"Are you saying it's almost half-life for a meteorite energy burst again?" Before Professor Shan finished speaking, Mr. Wang next to him couldn't wait to ask.
Professor Shan nodded slightly and said, "It should be the next full moon of this month, if I'm not wrong." ”
Professor Shan's words made everyone present shudder, when the moon is full this month? That is, five days later, it was terrible!
"Then let's hurry up, it's really as Professor Shan said, it's really terrible." Tian Liwen said with a look of fear.
But the cousin and the madman were silent, as if they were thinking about something, and Mr. Yuan, who had not spoken all the time, muttered to himself: "Actually, at that time, it was also the best time to eliminate those things that are not human and ghost, let's go, I fought such an old bone, and I will fight with those monsters to the end, and avenge my Xuanheng seniors." ”
Crazy Six nodded slightly and said: "That's right, maybe whether it is the blind man, or those Japanese, even Zhang Liangchen and them, as well as those amphibious people, are waiting for this month's full moon night, because on this full moon night, the huge energy released by that huge meteorite will have a huge impact on them, and this influence is exactly what they want, whether they want to practice the White Bone Concept, or immortality, or from amphibian people to humans, they need this energy, if they really succeed in using this energy, The consequences would be even more disastrous. Therefore, we must destroy them before this. ”
The cousin did not join in this discussion, but looked at Professor Shan seriously and asked, "How do you know this?" I mean, how do you know that this meteorite has a half-life, and that its eruption is 100 years, and that it is even on the night of the full moon of this month? ”
In fact, my cousin's series of questions are really what we want to know the most, yes, how did Professor Shan know this?
Before Professor Shan could speak, he hurriedly explained: "Professor Shan has a master's degree, and he is still studying in the United States. ”
Hearing Tian Liwen say this, we were all surprised, didn't Professor Shan study art history? How can there be a degree in heaven, and one is a liberal arts and the other is a science, this difference is too big.
Professor Shan smiled and said: "Yes, I have a master's degree one day, at that time, I was in love with my wife, and she was going to study in the United States, at that time going to the United States to study was generally public, and the opportunity was rare, she finally won it, although we were in love, but she insisted on going, and I studied art history related majors, there was no such place, I was in a hurry, for fear that my lover in case of going abroad, may be taken away by other men."
What to do?
I thought about it, there was only one way, I was admitted to another nearby university for a graduate degree in the field of heaven, at that time, there were several places to go abroad every year, the power of love is really great, I actually got in, and finally I was able to meet my lover in the United States, just like that, I got a master's degree in heaven by mistake. "Oh, I can't imagine that your love is still so long, presumably interdisciplinary is very rare, to have extraordinary perseverance, of course, but also to talent, you not only learned, but also won the place to go abroad, that is really not simple, in addition to your own qualifications, I am afraid that the rest is the power of love." Kenya said from the bottom of her heart, with a look of envy and yearning, as if she also hoped that a man could do this for her.
I peeked at Tian Liwen, only to see that she buried her head very low, I knew that she had a very strong crush on Professor Shan, and hearing Kenya say this, I must have felt very uncomfortable. Professor Shan didn't notice the subtle change in Tian Liwen's expression at all.
The cousin nodded slightly, but then asked, "Professor Shan, there are some questions that I still don't understand, what I want to know is, do all meteorites have such a law?" As far as I know, probably not, so specifically, what signs did you use to determine that this boulder has the patterns you mentioned? ”
Professor Shan nodded and replied very sincerely: "Actually, I only found out tonight, as for how I saw it, it was purely accidental." You may not have noticed the dark clouds in the sky tonight, but I first saw them from them. ”
What the? Dark clouds? How can you see the patterns of meteorites on the clouds?
Professor Shan went on to explain: "From the dark clouds, this rain is very strange, and the area of the rain should be a circle, and it is a very regular circle, and this circle is centered on a meteorite. In other words, two kilometers away, there is no rain, and the dark clouds in the sky are also in a regular circle, which is actually very easy to judge for me, because at the edge of this kind of cloud, the light is very different, because at the edge of the cloud, there is moonlight shining down, as long as you look closely, you can find this situation.
This kind of round cloud is the precursor of meteorite energy changes, of course, only large meteorites can produce this kind of energy, so why is it said that meteorite energy changes drastically and only erupts on the night of the full moon?
The reason for this is more complicated, in short, it is because the gravitational pull of the moon is the fuse that ignites the explosion of meteorite energy, and according to the research of relevant experts, the cycle of meteorite energy change is 100 years. ”
After Professor Shan's explanation, we can probably understand what is going on.
But then the question comes again: the cycle of this kind of energy change is a hundred years, so it is easy to understand that Old Man Yuan has lived here for decades and has never encountered it, but Xuanheng They have lived here for hundreds of years, if this kind of energy change can really distort people's meridians, then why haven't they become giant rats or snakes?
Professor Shan only thought about this question for a moment, as if he had figured it out, and said: "Because they are underground, and directly above the meteorite, the energy of this meteorite is regular, and directly above it, on the contrary, is the weakest part of its energy, and it is these factors that they maintain the human form and do not become other monsters." ”
We all felt that what Professor Shan said was very reasonable, but what we didn't expect was that Crazy Six shook his head again and again and said, "Professor Shan, I think some of your judgments are wrong. ”
