Richard couldn't hear the voice behind him at all, because his brain was as painful as if it had been twisted by a knife, and he only felt the world spinning at the moment.

When the pain finally subsided, Richard reopened his eyes, only to see a stranger around him.

The tall school buildings, the cement aisles full of people, or the green belts lined with camphor trees, stepgrass and boxwood in Phnom Penh have all disappeared.

In its place was a strange ruin.

This place, which looks like Angkor Wat, seems to have been abandoned for a long time. The black rock building, eroded by nature, resembles a piece of dried tofu. Moss crawled all over the thick stone slabs that lined the lattices above the ground. The thick roots of the trees, rising to the ground, even like naughty children, always lifting their feet when they sleep, pressed against adults, and climbing to the broken wall carved with reliefs along with vines such as creepers.

The most spectacular thing here is the black "tower" that surrounds this corner. These tall square cones are made up of many huge, about several tons of black boulders, which accumulate layer by layer, splicing together the shape of siu mai that is wide at the bottom and narrow at the top.

Richard looked around, and he found that each of the five towers surrounding him could be more than twenty meters high, comparable to seven or eight stories high.

But any high-rise building does not have their simplicity and vicissitudes.

There's no such hideousness at all.

Everywhere in the body of the tower, there are a large number of reliefs, all depicting all kinds of fierce beasts, some of them are like wolves and have two wings, and some of them have multiple heads obliquely. Or a giant with a head but horns, or a demon python wrapped in clouds and mist, all kinds of weirdness, and so on. Richard was in the middle of a tall tower to the east, and he saw a familiar pattern like a dragon.

He looked left and right, and looked at everything around him in amazement.

"What's going on? Dream?" thought Richard in a daze.

When he pinched himself hard, he suddenly became short of breath, could it be another crossing?

Richard, as a man who had died once, actually felt a touch of familiarity at this time.

"Which side is this?"

"Ah, didn't we just have a car accident?"

"Oh my God, it's not a dream. ”

"How do you wear this kind of clothes?"

"Is this heaven?"

......

Just as Richard was wondering, a cacophony of sounds reached his ears.

He followed the sound, and then ran with his feet in the other direction, toward the tower on the east side, from which the voices came.

The voices that Richard heard at this moment were all authentic, not authentic Mandarin.

"Are they the same as me, crossing together? What kind of car accident are they talking about? Why has the plot changed again?" Richard had more and more doubts in his heart.

Suddenly, after a casual glance at the sky, he was stunned.

At this moment, the sky was exactly what he had seen before—a huge sun, hanging diagonally in Amano, at three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

Richard's heart was heavy.

When he rounded the tower and reached a larger clearing behind him, he found that there were thirty or forty people gathered in front of him, and they were still full of people in groups of two or three.

Some people were arguing fiercely, others were looking around with curiosity, and some were actually kneeling on their knees and praying to God and Buddha......

"Look, there's another man over there. ”

"What the hell is going on here?"

"Whoever it is, listen to me, we must have arrived in heaven, and an angel will come to pick us up soon. ”

"Heaven is a ghost, Lao Tzu, I believe in Buddhism. ”

......

Richard's appearance caused a stir.

Many looked at him in astonishment, until another emerged from the southern corner and shared some of the stares and the strange questioning.

Most of the people here are very irritable.

The crowd was full of people, saying that they were in heaven, others said that they were in heaven, and some people kept shouting "crossing", most of which were young people.

Richard was at the corner of the crowd, quietly listening to the words of others, while constantly groping around. Because of some intentional or unintentional reminders, he found that the mobile phone and books in his backpack were gone, leaving only a bottle of water, which was not yet packaged. Similar to this, the intricate patterns on his clothes have all disappeared.

"What the hell is going on? This time it's actually a real body crossing?" Richard saw that his watch was still there, and his hands were still as white and slender as they were.

While they were still messing around, suddenly a burst of white light flashed on the top of the tower where Richard had come to the west.

After the flashbang light faded, there were two people standing on it.

"I'll go, big brother, hurry up and see, there are so many people here this time? Could it be that they are the same as Brother Li, they have encountered some kind of car accident or something. ”

The tone of the speaker is very frivolous.

This tall and thin young man in his twenties, who was also relatively frivolous, had dyed yellow hair, a large gold chain on his chest, and a string of earrings.

The dress is even more bizarre, it is actually a kind of black armor, the color is pitch black and rich, shining with metallic luster, and the texture is like obsidian.

The armor is in the form of plate armor, and in the middle of the breastplate, a gold-colored tiger is carved.

Beside him was a tall young man whom he called the eldest brother, and he was dressed in a kind of attire.

"Is that the case?" Liu Sheng laughed, and then turned around and looked at the "little brother" beside him, "Ah Guan, they also deserve to be unlucky." This time I lived again, and I didn't encounter any good times, but I actually suffered from the time of the big war. Last time, Brother Liu and his party were more than 50 people, and only eight survived. In my opinion, they don't even think about it. ”

Liu Sheng is tall, athletic, and has a tiger's back. His skin is dark, and although his facial features are ordinary, he has the ferocity of a thug. At this moment, when he laughed, his eyes shrank slightly into a line, giving people the appearance of a smiling tiger.

"Big brother, what you're saying is that this group of people is estimated to be unlucky. However, there are a few chicks who seem to be good-looking......"

Guan laughed.

"Don't worry, we'll take care of the task first. Liu Sheng patted him on the shoulder.

Because of their appearance, the crowd below was silent at first, and then exploded, and all kinds of sounds sounded one after another.

Richard pressed his glasses and looked coldly at the people on the tower. Because it was closer, at the bottom of the tower, he could see more clearly.

Neither of them looked like good people.

Then, his eyes suddenly shrank, just because of a strange movement from the other party.

Liu Sheng, who was standing at the top of the tower, suddenly raised his left arm, and the obsidian-like armor there was a vacant piece, revealing a round, about the size of an egg.

Inside was his skin with a strange tattoo.

Liu Sheng pressed this way, and suddenly a burst of light bloomed on him, and countless glowing particles formed a piece of light and shadow, like a page in a game.

After two clicks, he spoke fiercely and loudly.

"People below, give me a moment of silence. Uncle, I was about to talk to you, show me, each of you has this kind of ghost on his left arm, all of which have tattoos of 0 and 1. Once you press this side, the will unfold. If you have any questions, just say to it, remember to ...... louder."

His voice was unusually loud.

The crowd below, after he shouted two sentences, fell silent.

"Hey, there's really something?"

"What the hell is this?"

"I'll just say it, this is a crossing—a crossing?"

After the crowd listened to Liu Sheng's words, a whisper sounded again, like a bee buzzing. There was a fat man who shouted "cross", and when he saw the person on the top of the tower, he seemed to be looking towards him, and when he landed, he was humming like a mosquito.

But he was visibly excited.

Hearing this, Richard also rolled up his sleeve and checked the position of the inside of his arm. But strangely, there's nothing here. "What's going on?" he was rummaging through when he suddenly felt a pinprick pain in the corresponding position of his right arm. As soon as I opened the sleeve on that side, I immediately saw the square, pitch-black tattoo on the inside of the elbow, which was made up of "0" and "1" as small as the eye of a needle.

"I'm afraid that this ghost thing will trouble me, your big brother, I'll say a few more words. When you click on this thing, whatever you ask, it answers. It has some functions, such as clicking on the map, or helping you get some things, such as making clothes, getting food, and of course, the latter one needs points. Hehe, but then again, this damn thing has to earn points for everything. Big brother, let me tell you, what is the use of this point? But there are a lot of doorways here, so you should ask about it specifically. As soon as Richard pressed it, Liu Sheng opened his mouth to speak again.

The man who looked like a gangster laughed again, "Of course, there are some things that are pure nonsense on its side. I can tell you that this is neither heaven nor hell, but a playground built by God, as my brother Liu said. We are here to fight to the death, all to please this god. ”

"Also, don't talk about science, I won't talk about that here. Liu Sheng finally laughed, "Like this weird thing, this is an alien planet, and we are here to save this." Hahaha, laughing dead, it's an alien, and it's not like that to lie. ”

The crowd below listened silently to him, and then experimented with it hand in hand.

"My eldest brother is right, it's weird here. But that's not what it says it is. Ah Guan on the side said kindly, and he shook his arm at the people below.

"Like the hell the hell says, this is a real planet. Hehe, this is pure nonsense. I tell you, when you see the sun here, it will always be on top of your heads. According to the natives here, it only changes every few decades. However, when it fell, it was never seen again for decades, and there was no moon in the sky in the middle of winter. Brother Liu knew about this at the time, so he told us, isn't this a joke? Even in Antarctica, where there is a polar day, it is definitely not like this. You talk about this kind of place, talk about the science of ghosts......"

However, before he could finish speaking, Richard suddenly lost his voice and shouted at him.

"Is what you're saying true?

This interrupted the other party's voice, causing everyone around him to stare at him all at once.

Richard ignored the gazes of the people around him, and was now looking down at the boxy light and shadow that appeared in front of him. It was about the size of a computer screen, and it was white at this point.

When Richard realized something, he shouted at it, "Is this a planet?"

Suddenly, lines of Chinese characters appeared on the screen here.

"Which kid is talking down there, who dares to interrupt me?" Ah Guan Deng glared at Richard, his face angry, obviously being interrupted, which made him very unhappy.

By this time, the people around Richard had already vacated a space.

Just as he was about to make a move, Richard suddenly shouted at the people around him, "Yes, yes, this might really be a planet!"

The sound, like a kilogram of explosive TNT, shocked everyone here.

The crowd didn't understand what he was talking about.

Even the two people on the tower didn't know what Richard meant.

Seeing the people around him at a loss, Richard seemed to think of something, and he said to the people next to him, "Do you know that the tide is locked?"

Richard had thought that when he talked about this, he would remind some people.

But he still saw the people around him shaking their heads.

"Alas......"

He knocked on his head, and then said to the people around him: "Then who of you knows that the moon in the sky is always facing away from us, and we can only see half of it......

Before he could finish speaking, some people gave him peace.

"By the way, I remember that the news popped up on my phone had this!" to the east of the crowd, a slim-looking girl with a peaked cap and black sunglasses shouted at Richard in surprise

Later, another muscular young man in black casual clothes replied to Richard: "I have seen it in the documentary, and it seems that this is indeed the case. No matter which direction we look at the moon, we will only see half of it. ”

"Big brother, what kind of nonsense is this kid talking about?" Ah Guan pointed to the bottom and said to the side.

However, he saw a strange scene.

Liu Sheng shouted to Richard below in surprise: "Boy, what do you know. I remember that in the past, a news that popped up on my mobile phone, as if it was like this, the moon could only see half of it. ”

This time, more people looked at Richard.

Richard didn't want to be noticed by such a person, but when he heard Liu Sheng's words, he really couldn't contain the surprise in his heart, so he blurted out.

Now that the situation is pressing, he only has the temperament to say: "In short, this is very complicated. If you know a little bit about astronomy, or you're a science fiction fan, you'll probably know what's going on. I'll put it simply, you can only see half of the moon because it's tidally locked to the earth. ”

He paused, then gathered his words again.

"If you have studied a little physics, you probably know about gravity, right? That is to say, the same thing and the same thing can attract each other. So, the earth is round, and we won't fall down. The reason why we usually don't have this feeling is because the mass of the things we come into contact with on a daily basis is relatively small, and the gravitational force is negligible. ”

"You can think of it as a magnet to absorb iron. ”

"When the magnet attracts iron, whether it is close or not, the gravitational force is large, and the farther away, the gravitational force is smaller. ”

"It's the same with the Earth when it attracts the Moon. The size of the moon is huge, and it is a very large ball. The part that is close to the earth has a large suction, and the part that is far away has less suction. And then - well, you don't understand that. In short, under a series of mechanical actions, when it revolves around the earth, it will always fix a face facing us. Not only the moon will be affected by the gravitational pull of the earth, but the earth will also be affected by this force of the moon, which is the cause of the formation of tides, so it is also called the tidal force. ”

"Tidal locking is the locking of tidal forces. ”

In fact, this kind of tidal lock is very common in the universe. ”
