I have said too much about the subject of the Lord of the Sharks, some of them are cynical, some of them are alarmist, and I believe that these words have also spread to Area 51 in various ways. So, now is the time to shut up. I'm tired, it's time to leave some space for the world to think freely.

The other man was panting in his nostrils, as if he had been irritated by my attitude.

"I'll give you some time, you think about it. There are a lot of vacancies in District 51 that are reserved for fantasists like you. Staying here is something that many visionaries dream of, and it should be the same for you. As soon as the cigarette butt moved, the other party stood up suddenly.

"I'm tired, hungry and sleepy, and if I can solve my practical difficulties, I'll be interested in talking. I said coldly.

The other party did not answer, and strode out of the room.

My request was met, and after a great East-meets-West meal, I was escorted to a warm, spacious, and comfortable Chinese-style room. There is a full set of Chinese-style decoration, with landscape paintings hanging on the wall, and banners on both sides that read "The sun and the moon in the pot are long". What's more, there is also an antique Luohan bed in the room, and even the bed cover is made of Chinese silk products, which is extremely luxurious and radiant.

Being in such a room, probably all Chinese will be happy.

I was accompanied into the room by a girl wearing a Chinese cheongsam with an oriental face, with a bright smile on her face, and her every move was as well-trained as a robot.

"Sir, I will stand outside the door, and if I have any orders, just say hello, and be on hand twenty-four hours a day. She said.

I just nodded and didn't say a word.

For District 51, I'm just a passing visitor and will never be a part of it. So, the fewer traces you leave here, the safer you will be.

When the girl walked out, I took off my shoes and went to bed, and slept peacefully.

Han Ying really has her own set of action plans, and she has already left me out. So, I'm just a front to get the attention of the big guy Tiger in the 51 area. How to act, her people will naturally choose the opportunity to act.

Anyone who follows the Pentagon will know the name of "Tiger" Tiger, a die-hard hawk and a loyal follower of two generations of President Bush, who has traveled the battlefields of the Middle East. The most shocking act he made to the global media was to personally drive the US medium tank into Baghdad and bombard the flag in front of the presidential palace with one shot. Previously, in the Gulf War at the end of the last century, he was the highest-ranking officer who went deep into the front line, and finally became a well-deserved "military god" of the Pentagon's main combat faction.

From a soldier's and patriotic point of view, he was worthy of the United States of America and made great achievements for the Stars and Stripes. On the other hand, from the point of view of the hostile state, he is an executioner, a demon, a war maniac, and belongs to the number one target of the first assassination, and his threat even exceeds that of the president of the United States.

From my point of view, the experience of warfare he accumulated in the deserts of the Middle East is not helpful for naval warfare today, because the former is a battle between men and men, while the latter is a battle between thaumaturgists and mermaids. The difference between the two, like a bacterium fighting against the gods and Buddhas, is incomparable.

I slept for a long time, waking up once in between, but it was so quiet outside* that it made me feel as if I had returned to my old house and lived a simple and vegetarian life again. That kind of life, like the flowing water on the street side of Qushuiting, night and day, gurgling, ordinary and simple, unpretentious.

It is also a kind of life, a kind of red dust life that belongs to the small people of Shengdou and the pawns of the peddlers.

I came from that life, but I can't go back.

When I woke up, there was already a thick stack of bulletins on the bedside.

I picked up the two dozen pages, and the front page was stamped with a red "top secret" stamp.

The briefing reads: "Twenty-four hours ago, someone broke into Database 145, and when it was discovered, it caused a large explosion that destroyed four adjacent databases in succession, causing huge damage. As a result of the inventory, in addition to the four databases that were blown up, another 10 databases were stolen, and their contents covered various overseas war materials of the United States from World War I onwards. At present, a major investigation is underway within the base, and it is hoped that all employees will cooperate to eliminate the assassins who have infiltrated the base. ”

As I recall, Han Yeong-jin was targeting database No. 45, not No. 145, which appeared in the briefing.

From the photographs from the scene that appeared in the briefing, I realized that Database 145 was directly above Database 45, and that if there was an explosion above, the roof below would be damaged. As for the theft of other databases, it should be Han Yingzhen's suspicious plan, so that Area 51 will not quickly suspect that this operation is related to the Lord of the Sharks.

Outside, there were explosions, and I slept soundly, letting the Japanese spies and the Americans fight to the death.

I rang the bell, and the girls outside the door came in immediately.

"I'm hungry. I said.

The girl nodded: "Yes, in twenty minutes, the kitchen will deliver the meal." However, if you have extra energy, there are a few gentlemen out there who want to talk to you. ”

I nodded in agreement, "Please let them in." ”

The one who took the lead was the tiger, followed by three bald middle-aged people. The three men were dressed in strange attire, two dressed like Indian dervishes, while the third was dressed in blood-red robes, and wore an octagonal crown with eight colored gemstones on his head, and the middle crown was crowned high above it like a red javelin.

The tiger is a middle-aged man with a high nose and deep eyes, a broad forehead, a burly body, and a menacing attitude, of course, those who know his real age will classify him as an elderly person, but only from the outside, they can only regard him as a very aggressive and hot-blooded middle-aged man. I was familiar with his voice and smell, and as soon as he appeared at the door, I had already seated him with the above two points.

"These three are all masters in the field of thaumaturgy. They came to confirm a very important matter. If you can be honest with us, our beautiful cooperation can begin. Tiger said.

After he sat down, he habitually took out the cigar case, lit one, and began to puff out clouds.

The three strangers didn't take their seats, but just stood side by side in the doorway.

Dervishes are a group of practitioners in India, Nepal, Bhutan, Sikkim and other places, and have long been active in large and small cities on the southern slopes of the Himalayas. This school of thought uses "suffering" to open the mind, which is actually the same principle as the "worship of the Buddha and chanting sutras" in Tibetan Buddhism, which is to drive the practitioner to enlightenment through a certain kind of ritual.

"Archimedes said that if you give him a bamboo pole, he will pry the earth up. Do you agree with that?" asked a slightly taller dervishe.

The question was abrupt, but I nodded my head in agreement.

He had actually found the bamboo pole and had pried up the earth, which resulted in a heavy tilt of the Asian continental plate. He continued.

Archimedes' remark is an extreme extension of the "lever theory" in physics, which means that if there are enough conditions, that is, the ratio of the power arm to the resistance arm is large enough, then a person can pry up an immeasurable weight of the earth with his weight of only 80 kilograms. Of course, the bamboo pole is long enough, the fulcrum is strong enough, and the pry point is accurate enough are all prerequisites, and Archimedes, as a great genius physicist, only provided such an idea. As for whether it can be realized, only God knows.

"Don't you dare to ask your Excellency what to call him?" I asked for the other party's name before I could express my opinion.

"Ananda monk. He replied.

"Gyala monk. Another dervish replied.

Ananda and Ka Ye are the first and second seats of the eighteen Arhats before the Buddha of the Western Heavens, which is the true record of the Buddhist scriptures, and its wisdom, merit, virtue, and character are known all over the world.

These two people named themselves Ananda and Kasya, of course, thinking that they could be compared to the two Buddha masters. This approach is either extremely arrogant or outstandingly intelligent.

"Thank you for your advice, and I'd like to hear about it. I nodded to Ananda.

In the Sanskrit classics, it is said that there is a long-eyebrow monk standing on the main peak of the Great Snow Mountain with his bare arms, holding a 3,000-foot rattan cane, straight into the Wuji trench of the East China Sea, exerting 3,000 jin forward, 3,000 jin backward, repeating 3,000 times, so that the East China Sea is ten times wider, and the originally adjacent land suddenly becomes an abyss. Again, three thousand days later, the people of the abyss emerged, like fish, but fish language, like people, can human language, self-proclaimed ancient people, in order to avoid the suffering of sun, fire, moon ice, clouds and mist, escaped into the underwater cavern for 3,000 years. This Sanskrit passage refers to the catastrophe caused by Archimedes after he pryed the earth. The most urgent task is to find the cane that moved the earth that day, restore the earth to its original state, and eliminate all calamities. Ananda's words are self-justifying, but the idea is crazy.

I have read that when geologists studied the origin of the Bering Strait, they did say that it was the crustal changes that caused the land between Eastern Europe and North America to split and become straits. Otherwise, today's Asia, Europe, and the United States are connected together, and they can pass freely from the Bering Strait, establishing a "new Silk Road" from west to east.

In the opinion of geologists, crustal changes and plate squeezing are the causes of the Bering Strait, but if you go back a step further, what causes the earth's crust to change? Even if the earth's crust is wrapped in liquid, what stirs up the turbulence of the liquid and produces this destructive force?

The monk suddenly spoke: "You are also thinking, what is the rattan staff that destroyed the earth? This question can be easily answered by two books written by you Chinese. The first is called "The Legend of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty", and the second is called "Journey to the West", also known as "The Story of the Stone Monkey and the Buddha". If you've read these two books, then all questions are not puzzles. ”

The name "The Stone Monkey and the Buddha" is very obscure, only very few Buddhist scripture researchers know about it, and this title has never appeared in China at all, just the name of the Sanskrit translation of "Journey to the West" in India and Nepal.

It is very easy to explain Archimedes' bamboo pole that pries the earth with "Journey to the West", because it is described in the book that the Monkey King's wishful golden hoop stick is a bamboo pole that "is as long as it is long and pierces the sky, and if it is short, it is as short as an embroidery needle".

What's more coincidental is that the golden hoop stick, also known as the "Dinghai God Needle", was originally inserted in the sea cave of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea, and no water tribe can shake it slightly. Later, Sun Wukong pulled it out as his own weapon, subduing demons and eliminating demons all the way, and protecting Tang Sanzang to learn scriptures from the West.

"What does the master mean that when the Dinghai Divine Needle was pulled out, it caused changes in the earth's crust and the dislocation of plates, and only then did a large area of land become the Bering Strait?

Even if the inferences of Ananda and Kasa are reasonable, and even if they find words and pictures in ancient books as evidence, it is a very crazy idea and cannot appear as official information.

History can be traced, but it cannot be associated indefinitely, otherwise, our human worldview will collapse in an instant, and all atheists will fall into an unprecedented panic of intellectual subversion.

The reason why human beings can reproduce is because all nations have different beliefs, and relying on the light of faith, they can strengthen their strength, strengthen their minds, and increase their self-confidence and cohesion. Modern people do not believe in ancient myths, and occasionally mention them only as after-dinner conversations.

If, as Ananda and Kasa said, all miracles are true, then human beings will realize how small they are, like ants under the feet of gods, and they will not have the courage to live at all.

"I admit that some ancient myths have their authenticity, and they are based on some folklore. There are so many myths and legends in ancient China, and many of them have been proven to be true. Truth and truth, from which 'road' is 'reasonable'. Thanks to the explanations of the two masters, I have been taught. I said humbly.

The stones of other mountains can be used to attack jade.

Listening to foreign monks talk about Chinese mythology can sometimes be touchable, and it is a good opportunity to get an education.

Buddhism originated in India, Ananda monk and Ka Ye monk dare to claim to be the two disciples of the Buddha, and they must be very profound, not pretentious.

"Yes, Chinese culture has a long history, and many historical records are clearer and more orderly than those of other countries, which are worthy of reference by scholars in all countries. Now, let's not talk about anything else, just about the stone monkey using a bamboo pole to pry the earth. Ananda said.

The story of Monkey King making trouble in the Dragon Palace and the Heavenly Palace is familiar to Chinese, and I grew up watching such cartoons and TV series since I was a child, and I know the plot well.

In the story, Sun Wukong returned from the East China Sea, and his martial arts, spells, and strength became extremely powerful, and there was no weapon in the mortal world that could match him. The old monkey of Huaguo Mountain suggested that he go to the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea to hunt for treasures. Sun Wukong arrived at the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, the Dragon King at first just took some ordinary weapons perfunctory, and later saw Sun Wukong entangled, so he deliberately said the matter of the Dinghai God Needle, its original intention was just to let Sun Wukong know the difficulty and retreat, but unexpectedly, all the coincidences, Dinghai Shenshen Needle and Sun Wukong are a perfect match, so Sun Wukong pulled out with one hand. In the history of the Dragon Palace, the Dinghai Divine Needle is the treasure left by Dayu when he controls the water, and its role is "Zhenhai, Dinghai", once lost, the ocean is turbulent, and the Dragon Palace is unstable. This section can be called the history of the Monkey King, it is precisely because of the Dinghai Divine Needle that the Monkey King was able to defeat the heavenly soldiers and generals, and set up the eternal immortal banner of "Monkey King" in Huaguo Mountain, becoming the only anti-god, anti-imperialist, anti-heaven, anti-ritual and anti-ritual fighting Buddha in history.

"What does the master mean is that if the Seagod Needle is lost, the bottom of the sea will be in turmoil, and the merman will be bred up?" I asked.

If Ananda is allowed to repeat this story, it will be verbose, tortuous, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and very procrastinating. Why don't I just state the results and save everyone's time.

Ananda Monk nodded: "Yes, what is 'Dinghai'? It is to suppress the monsters under the sea and keep the sea peaceful and quiet." Before Dayu ruled the water, the sea flowed across the sea and flooded the mulberry field, which was the result of the monsters in the sea making waves. Dayu first used the Dinghai God Needle to suppress the monsters, and then used the soil to build a dam to guide thousands of rivers, flowing from the high place in the west to the low place in the east, and completed the dredging and management of the Asian section. Another thaumaturgy of your country—"

I immediately answered: "The Classic of Mountains and Seas also lists many ancient monsters, about one-tenth of which are similar to sharks. From the Xia, Shang and Third Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all monsters did not appear in the official historical records. According to the master's speculation, those monsters are all from the East China Sea and have been suppressed by the Dinghai Divine Needle?"

This way of talking saves at least half of the time and makes the conversation a lot more nutritious.

"Yes, exactly. As soon as the Dinghai Divine Needle came out, the monster revived from the bottom of the water, which is the most fundamental source of the merman. Ananda replied.

"How to fix it?" I asked in just four words.

Understanding its source is only a small step in solving the problem, and truly resolving the crisis is what we urgently need to accomplish.

"Like Dayu, find the Dinghai God Needle and re-suppress the monsters. Ananda replied.

"I wonder what progress the two of you have made in this matter with the great help of District 51?" I asked.

Tiger came in with three strangers, it must be justified and did a lot of related work, which is in line with the work style of District 51.

"Ninety-nine percent, one percent, one percent. Ananda replied.

This person is very pedantic and wants to make an introduction to an issue rather than going straight to the point.

I snorted and made a gentle "continue" gesture.

"Alright. The heavy-eyebrow monk with the octagonal monk's hat spoke for the first time.

As soon as he spoke, Ananda and Kasa retreated at the same time, clasped their hands together, and lowered their heads.

"Long-winded. The heavy-eyebrow monk snorted again.

Ananda nodded again and again, not daring to make a sound.

"The Mirror Room. The heavy eyebrow monk said.

These two words alone are enough for me to understand a series of questions. The mirror chamber is an inverted pyramidal structure, i.e., a vertical wedge. Usually, wedges are used to plug leaks. The ancients used wooden barrels to fill water, and after a long time, the wooden barrel dripped out, so they would use a wooden wedge to knock it in, squeezing the adjacent wooden planks tightly and no longer leaking. From the words of the heavy eyebrow monk, I judged that the mirror room was used to "plug the leak of the East China Sea", as long as it was translated to the mouth of the seabed, it would firmly seal the hole under the dual action of seawater pressure and the suction of the sea. However, in that case, all the people who remained in the mirror room would become burial companions.

"There's no better way?" I asked.

The heavy-eyebrow monk shook his head and said two more words: "Dead man." ”

The meaning of these two words is undoubtedly that those who remain in the mirror room are dead soldiers, and they are determined to die and live and die with the mirror room.

In the mirror room, the only thing I can't give up is Tang Wan. This kind of ending is strange and tragic, and once it comes true, my heart will not be at peace for the rest of my life.

"You don't believe it, I have proof of it. Every dead man is born great and dies glorious. If you die for the survival of the earth, it is a supreme glory and will be recorded in the annals of the earth and will be famous for eternity. The monk said a long sentence, his face blank and emotionless.

I wanted to get angry, but then I realized that these plans could not be changed, and it was a foregone conclusion. It can even be said that when the mirror room was manufactured, it was already doomed to today's fate. This is a major matter decided by the superstructure, and my generation of thaumaturgists cannot reverse it. To change it is like shaking a tree with a mayfly.

"What about you?" said the heavy-eyebrow monk as I followed.

I could neither answer "agree" in a high-profile manner, nor could I truly answer "reluctant to give up Tang Wan", so I could only take a long breath and refuse to answer.

It's none of your business, hang high. If it is about oneself, the heart is already in turmoil.

"When will you finish the last step?" I asked again.

"Anytime, always waiting for you, you're rested, do it right away. The heavy eyebrow monk replied.

I suppressed the dissatisfaction in my heart and replied coldly: "Thank you for your attention to me, I must think about it again to see if there is any possibility of compromise in this matter." ”

The monk slowly raised his head: "Dayu controls the water, and he passes through the door three times without entering, have you ever thought about a compromise? ”

I looked around at the three of them, and finally my eyes fell on the tiger, and I asked lightly: "The four of you are standing here together, who should I listen to? There are a thousand families, and one person is in charge, and the country has a thousand families, and one is in charge." Now, I don't understand, who has the authority to give the final order when it comes to the reclamation of the Mirror Removal Room?"

Tiger's answer was the same as I thought: "It's the president." ”

"I want to see him. I said.

Without the slightest pause, the tiger replied, "I will arrange that within twenty-four hours, he will set aside a special time to meet you." ”

I nodded: "Okay, we'll talk about it after meeting the president." ”

The heavy-eyebrow monk suddenly raised his voice: "There is nothing to discuss, this is not something that the president can decide, this is ...... This is the Buddha's will, and it has to be done, and there is no need to discuss it. ”

"Master Budan, Master Budan!" the tiger howled twice, his face was grim, and he was not angry. Among the four of them, Tiger Tiger has political, military, and 51 regional power in his hands, and belongs to the tripartite alliance and merges into one, but the status of these three monsters is only limited to the scope of thaumaturgy, so naturally they cannot be compared with Tiger.

"I'm going to see the president, I'm going to see the president!" the heavy-eyebrow monk was unwilling to surrender.

Tiger nodded: "Okay, I will arrange it, but the president has limited time and can only meet in turns." Master Budan, don't be impatient, wait for my news. ”

The heavy-eyebrow monk suddenly became angry and raised his right hand, palms facing the tiger.

The tiger unceremoniously lowered his hand and drew his gun, pointing it at the heavy-eyebrow monk.

He made the fundamental mistake of not judging the right moment to shoot. You know, when Budan raised his hand, his attack had already begun. The most important thing the tiger should do is to draw its gun and shoot immediately, and use the attack to counteract Budan's attack.

With a click, the pistol in the tiger's palm trembled, and the magazine automatically slipped off and fell on the carpet. In this way, the only bullet left in the gun that was already loaded, but it had to face the three enemies led by Budan. Moreover, if the magazine falls off and the pistol loses its weight balance, it will greatly reduce his shooting accuracy and prevent him from hitting the target.

"You are tired, you have to sleep, you have to sleep, you wake up obedient, do what I say. The mermaid is so powerful that it has to be removed, and within three days, the mirror room will be reclaimed ......" Bu Dan hummed these words in a magical Sanskrit chant, and the tune was twisted and coiled, like an iron snake, drilling in the air.
