City in the Clouds on

Since Pangu opened the heavens and the earth, the heavens and the earth were separated, and the earth developed into a prosperous one, and flowers and trees, birds and beasts began to appear, and then intelligent creatures and human beings also appeared. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 info And the sky, still quiet, doesn't seem to have changed.

Relying on genetic superiority, the humans on the earth gradually became the overlords of the earth, pointing fingers at other creatures as their ruling people. Especially after the invention of the airplane, they even claimed that they had conquered the sky, and the earth was all in the hands of human beings, and human beings on land were the kings of the whole earth.

In fact, the sky and the earth are like two sides of a mirror, and if you develop rapidly on the earth, the sky will not lag behind you. But since the separation of heaven and earth, heaven and earth have been far apart, and there has been no communication. Until one day, in an ordinary farm in the United States, the first step of the communication between heaven and earth creatures was inadvertently started.

It was a farm in Texas, USA, and it had not rained for a long time, and the crops in the field had dried up.

The farmer Old John was worried, it was not a way to go on like this, such a harvest, and soon the family could only drink the northwest wind.

John Sr.'s son, John, was studying physics at Princeton University and was at home for a few days during school holidays. When he saw old John sighing in the field, he went over and said, "Father, are you worried about the rain again?"

Old John: "Yes, if we continue like this, we're going to go bankrupt." β€œ

John thought for a moment: "Dad, I actually have two ways to try: one is artificial rain. Now there is a means of artificial rainfall, which is to shoot dry ice into the sky with cannons, so that the clouds and water vapor in the sky condense, and then it can become rain. β€œ

Old John: "In that case, let's try it, there is no other way now." β€œ

John: "I'm going to contact the weather station today, they should have the equipment for artificial rainfall, and then I can try it tomorrow." β€œ

Old John: "Raising a child for a thousand days is used for a while." It's up to you. What's the other way?"

John: "The other way is the Chinese version of artificial rainfall, but the principle is different. I have a college classmate named An Zhuo, who is Chinese, and he is coming to us in two days to play with me. He told me that they have a Taoist technique called Qimen Dunjia in China, which can call the wind and rain and directly change the celestial phenomena with manual intervention. Zhuge Liang, a famous philosopher, politician and military strategist in ancient China, is said to be a master in this area. β€œ

Old John: "This is too mysterious, isn't it, if it's so powerful, you still need a weather station? That's feudal superstition, or is it more reliable to use scientific artificial rainfall." β€œ

John: "I haven't actually seen that kind of method, but it can't be called feudal superstition, it's just a different field of science." β€œ

John Sr.: "Okay, well, when I was younger, I accompanied Kissinger to China to play table tennis, and I didn't see them use any spells to get us." You can get the artificial rain machine tomorrow, this is more reliable. β€œ

John: "No problem, we citizens of America are in need, do they dare not borrow us? I have a share of the Democratic votes." β€œ

The next day, John drove back the weather station's artificial rain device.

John Sr. couldn't wait to move his things to the farm with his son, ready to go.

John began to install the unit according to the instruction manual. Old John looked at John, who was installing the cannon device, and said happily: "If you are well, it will be a rainy day, and then the crops will be saved." β€œ

John finally installed it all.

Old John: "Hurry up and play with the first shot, and see the effect." β€œ

John: "What's the hurry, if you can say that you can fight, you have to have a little cloud." β€œ

Old John: "It's really verbose, why don't you just put a cannonball, anyway, it's the country's money, why don't you feel sorry? β€œ

John: "Well, I've never seen such a naΓ―ve dad. John had no choice but to fire a cannonball first.

Peng's bang, the dry ice cannon hit the sky.

Old John clapped his hands happily: "It's so fun, it's so fun! It's like fireworks at Christmas." β€œ

After waiting for a while, not even a drop of water fell.

John: "I said it's useless, you have to wait for some clouds, and there is enough water vapor in the atmosphere to condense into rain." β€œ

Old John: "Don't worry, according to what I watched last night, there will be some clouds drifting in the southeast today, wait." β€œ

John: "There are only five shells left, so save a little bit of use, and when the clouds come, you will have to fire a few rounds in quick succession to have an effect." β€œ

Old John: "No problem, high-tech stuff, you won't let go of empty cannons." β€œ

Father and son sat on the farm, staring at the sky, waiting for the clouds to come.

Unfortunately, the sky was clear and cloudless, and I waited for a long time and didn't see a single cloud.

Old John: "You can artificially rain rain, can you artificially create clouds, make some clouds." β€œ

John: "Ouch, why do you think you can make it, then it's okay to make artificial crops, what kind of crops are you growing?" There is a limit to the power of man. β€œ

They waited and waited and fell asleep. When John opened his eyes, he saw a large white cloud in the sky above them.

John hurriedly woke up the old John next to him: "It's coming, it's coming, there's a cloud coming!"

Old John woke up: "Are you coming?

The two of them hurried up and loaded the dry ice cannonballs.

There was another "bang", and the shell hit.

Somehow, John felt as if the cannonball had turned a corner.

John: "Strange, is it a miss? It doesn't seem to be windy." One more shot!"

The second dry ice shell was loaded again, and with another loud bang, the shell flew up.

When the cannonball hit the clouds, it seemed to be at an angle again, and it flew out of the way.

John: "How? How did we go off? We were pretty good on the first shot. β€œ

Old John: "Son, there are only three shells left, what do you think?"

John: "I don't believe it. Where's the plane you used to irrigate your crops? β€œ

Old John: "Son, you don't want to fly an airplane to fire shells in the air, do you?" Son, this is a farm plane, not a fighter plane!"

John: "Leave it alone, give me the key, as long as I'm here, this plane will become a fighter in the agricultural plane." β€œ

Old John had no choice but to give him the keys to the plane.

John took the key, packed up the artificial rain device, and headed to the hangar.

Old John: "Alas, this bear child is becoming more and more like me when I was younger. I think that when I was in the West, I dared to break into the madman street of Obudding Gambling Town in Texas with a revolver, break through the bullets of more than a dozen Western gunmen, and kill all the way from the east end of the street to the west to save my beloved girl. β€œ

Old John hurriedly followed: "Hey, son, take me one, and I'll help you shoot the cannonballs." β€œ

In the blink of an eye, John had climbed into the cockpit of the plane, loaded the shell on the plane, and fired it at the touch of a button.

Old John ran over: "I'll go up too." β€œ

John: "No, you can answer it below, if you have any questions, we will contact the walkie-talkie." β€œ

John started the plane and began to glide, taking to the sky.

John: "Castle in the sky, I'm coming! β€œ

Old John watched the plane below and contacted John on the walkie-talkie: "You are already within 1,000 meters of the visual range of the clouds, and when you get close to 300 meters, you will open fire." Because the range of this artificial rain cannonball is 400 meters, considering the gravitational acceleration, 300 meters is the most suitable, otherwise it is not good for you to fly into the clouds if it is too close. β€œ

John: "What about flying into the clouds, isn't the clouds just a cloud of steam, and what can you do with my plane?" β€œ

Old John: "That being said, you'd better be careful, in case there is a lot of charge in the thunderstorm cloud." β€œ

John: "It's a white cloud, how can it be a thunderstorm, it's okay, I'll get closer and fire again." There are only three shells left, and I'm going to do three shots in a row, and the whole white cloud will be broken into raindrops to irrigate the crops. β€œ

Old John: "This kid is becoming more and more like me." β€œ

Seeing that the plane was getting closer and closer to this cloud, when it was only 100 meters, the plane fired three shots in succession, firing all three shells, desperately.

Old John watched nervously from below.

All three shells were fired, but for some reason, they hit the clouds without any movement. Then the plane also plunged headlong into the clouds due to inertia.

The plane disappeared from old John's field of vision.

At the speed of the plane, it should be able to pass through the other side of the cloud in five seconds. But old John waited for a long time, and a minute passed, and there was no movement, that is, the plane plunged headlong into the clouds, and then disappeared.

Old John shouted desperately over the walkie-talkie below, but there was no response.

Old John is stupid, how could an ordinary cloud swallow a plane alive, he has never encountered such a thing in so many years.

Old John waited below for twenty minutes, did not see a shadow of the plane, and the walkie-talkie did not respond, he began to be anxious, so he was ready to go back to call the police.

John Sr. called the police station, who was shocked to hear what he had said, and promised to send someone over soon.

Half an hour later, several helicopters flew to Old John's farm.

It seems that things are getting bigger, and the FBI people, the UFO Mystery Research Institute, also sent people over, and they also brought a bunch of high-tech equipment.

The police captain introduced Old John with an eyed man and an eyed woman: "This is Team Henry of the FBI and Dr. Marilyn of the UFO Mysteries Research Bureau, both of whom have taken over the famous Roseville alien incident and dealt with aliens. β€œ

Old John: "Without further ado, hurry to my farm, it's been almost an hour since they all disappeared, and it will be troublesome if the clouds drift away later." β€œ

So they went to the farm.

Sure enough, by the time they arrived, the big cloud had drifted away and didn't know where to go, except for a few scattered small clouds.

Old John: "No, Dayun has run away, so what can I do, my son's whereabouts are still unknown." β€œ

Henry: "Don't worry, I've contacted the National Weather Service, and they'll locate all the cloud data that has appeared here, and all the cloud changes and cloud flow can be tracked. And our helicopter squadron has set off to search for unidentified objects in the sky within a radius of 1,000 kilometers. We have very advanced equipment, even UFOs don't want to avoid it. β€œ

Old John: "Then you can see what the reason is this? Why did you disappear in broad daylight even if you couldn't see the plane and the people?" β€œ

Marilyn lifted her glasses: "Based on my years of experience dealing with UFOs, this should be a typical UFO hijacking incident. However, it is really rare to be able to hijack people with planes. In fact, since the Roswell incident, our US government has been dealing with aliens on various planets one after another, and I am one of the people in charge. In fact, there are several kinds of so-called aliens, one is from planets outside the solar system, such as Sirius and the aliens of the Ang Star Cluster, their planet's technology is very developed, and they only come to the earth to conduct some investigations, and there is no malicious intent. And we have established a friendship agreement with our US government and set up an office in the United States. Of course, these are kept secret. There are also ancient earth humans hundreds of millions of years earlier than our current civilization, and their civilization is much earlier than ours, living on the earth hundreds of millions of years ago. However, they soon discovered that it was not safe to live on the surface of the earth, and they often had to face natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and asteroid attacks. Therefore, when their civilization and technology develop to a certain level, they all move to the interior of the earth to live, and it is much safer to live in it. There is an entrance and exit at the South Pole and one at the North Pole. And then a long time later, a new life, which is what we are now humans, appeared again. β€œ

Old John: "Which gang of aliens did the kidnapping of my son?"

Marilyn: "It's probably another wave of aliens who will do these hijacking things." They are also from aliens, but their intentions are somewhat evil, they like to plunder, and they have bad intentions towards us, such as lizardmen. Thankfully, we've allied with the aliens and interrestrial humans from other planets, so they don't dare to attack us on a large scale. So hijackings like this are usually done by them. β€œ

Old John: "Ah, what should I do, you must help me get my son back, we are taxpayers, you have this obligation." β€œ

At this time, Henry, who had been observing and contemplating, spoke: "I don't know why, I don't think this is like the behavior of the lizardmen, these techniques are too different from the style of the lizardmen. β€œ

Marilyn: "No, who else is there but them? Is there a fourth type of advanced intelligent creature that has not been discovered?"

Henry pondered, "Let's wait for the data from the Meteorological Bureau to come first." And old John, I may want to disturb you these days, our staff will be stationed at your farm to investigate, and we will borrow your house to live for a few days. β€œ

Old John: "No problem, I'll take care of food and shelter, as long as I can find my son." β€œ

So the staff began to get busy at Old John's house, setting up all kinds of instruments and equipment, and the helicopter roared back and forth in the sky, and Henry and Marilyn gathered other experts to analyze all kinds of data together.

Old John sighed, and could only silently pray that his son would be found soon.

Old John was sitting in the courtyard, thinking about what had happened that day. Suddenly, a staff member came to tell him that there was someone looking for him outside the door, a Chinese.

Old John wondered: "I don't know Chinese, how can anyone look for me?" β€œ

When John Sr. arrived at the door, he realized that it was John's college classmate An Zhuo who had come to play with John.

An Zhuo looked at the FBI staff who were coming in and out of the house, and asked Old John strangely: "Is your house going to be demolished and forcibly requisitioned, so many police and government personnel." β€œ

Old John: "No, they're here to help me find my son, who seems to have been kidnapped by aliens." β€œ

So old John told An Zhuo what had happened.

An Zhuo frowned: "There is also this kind of thing, it's too bizarre, and it's the first time I've heard that a cloud can hijack a plane." β€œ

An Zhuo said with a deep dantian, stretched out his left palm, his fingers moved quickly on the palm, and he started the six-point game, and began to pinch his fingers and count.

Old John looked at An Zhuo, who was pinching his fingers, and wondered: "What kind of magic is this, Harry Potter?"

An Zhuo quickly calculated: "Don't worry, he's safe now." β€œ

Old John: "Ah, that's fine." So where is he now, tell me quickly. β€œ

An Zhuo: "His specific location is a bit erratic, but it is basically clear that he is still in the sky and has not come down yet." β€œ

Old John: "And that." What kind of magic are you, can you be sure, the US global positioning satellites have not been able to find the whereabouts of my son, and you can find out my son's whereabouts with a flash of your fingers?"

An Zhuo: "What's the use of your satellite system, it's useless except for the self-auction moe, let's take a look at our easy learning in Greater China." It's science, not magic. The laws of the operation of heaven and earth, and all changes in the world, are in the laws. But I only figured out the beginning, but not the end. Although he is safe for the time being, there is no guarantee that he will always be, so it is better to find him as soon as possible in the end. β€œ

Old John: "What should I do? Hurry up and help me, John said you can do spells, why don't you just chant a spell to turn him back?"

An Zhuo glanced at him: "You and I are the Monkey King, you can change anything." We also have to abide by the law of conservation of mass and energy, I can change what I want, and I will not become an almighty immortal. β€œ

Old John: "Then what will you do, try it, you can track his coordinates." β€œ

An Zhuo: "Although I can't change him back, it is possible for me to use my Qimen Dunjia's Heaven and Earth Escape Technique to achieve the unity of heaven and man, and turn me into him." β€œ

Old John: "Yes, you Chinese have been practicing martial arts since childhood, and it is much safer to have you to save him." If you need anything, just say, the FBI guys are there, and the U.S. government can give you full support. β€œ

An Zhuo: "I don't need those rice buckets." But I do need you to provide me with something. Are there any clothes that John has been wearing lately, or any other chains? β€œ

Old John: "Yes." What do you want these things for?"

An Zhuo: "I'm here to get information about his soul. Because the human soul is a plasma-like carrier of information, it exists by attachment to the body. But the soul is not static, it is not something tightly wrapped in a can, but it is also constantly moving and changing, like a smell, it will diffuse, it will penetrate the surrounding matter. For example, the clothes he wears, because they cover his body, the breath of the soul will penetrate into the clothes over time, as long as I find his clothes, I can track his location. β€œ

Old John: "Okay, I'll go get it." β€œ

Old John then went into the house and brought the clothes that John had worn.

An Zhuo took the clothes brought by Old John: "Yes, then I'm going to do it." You keep an eye on this neighborhood, and don't let the FBI and the police bother me. β€œ

Old John: "No problem. β€œ

An Zhuo then took out all kinds of magic utensils, incense and candles from his bag, and set up the altar, ready to start the practice.

An Zhuo explained to Old John, who was watching suspiciously: "This is a Taoist formation, through some spells, it opens the passage of the three worlds of heaven, earth and man, so that people can go to heaven and earth, and freely shuttle between heaven and earth. Ordinary mages can only let their souls go out of their bodies to find what they are looking for, but I have practiced to a certain depth that allows my body to travel through time and space, and escape to heaven and earth. β€œ

An Zhuo lit all the incense and candles, recited the words, wrote a few charms, lit them one by one, walked seven star steps, and chanted as he walked.

At this time, the sky that was originally clear suddenly became cloudy, thunder and lightning, and overcast winds.

Old John exclaimed: "I knew that you had this ability, why should I do any artificial rain, you will rain like this, it is much more effective than any dry ice cannonball, so it will not cause so many troubles." β€œ

It is said that after John drove the plane into the clouds, there were clouds and fog as far as the eye could see, and he couldn't see anything, but he felt that the plane was slowing down quickly, and the engine couldn't move.

John was nervous, the engine wouldn't start, it would be terrible, it would fall. But the strange thing is that the plane slowed down to a stop, but it had no intention of falling at all, and seemed to be firmly held by the clouds.

Strange, John tried to open the door to the cab and walked out.

He cautiously stepped his foot to the ground, stepped on it, and it was very strong, so he stepped out of the plane with confidence.

Before his eyes was a world of white clouds. He was full of doubts in his heart, isn't this cloud a Xiaoice crystal formed by water vapor, how can he still stand on people? But John was born with his father's adventurous spirit, threw off the plane and walked boldly forward.

The further he went, the clearer the road became, and he also found that there were some plant-like things in the clouds, but they were different from those on the earth, as if there was no very clear entity, and it looked good, and when he reached out to touch it, it was empty.

Anyway, John is also a physics major, but he still can't explain this phenomenon.

John thought to himself, "These things that have a form but no substance, not like a solid or a liquid, but which do not seem to be illusions, is there a fourth state of physics?"

The further he went, the more he saw things, and he seemed to see a small bungalow. The buildings in the clouds are not motionless like solid physical buildings, but they are real.

Even more peculiar was the fact that he saw a person, a real person, on a stool under the building, seemingly drawing.

John got closer and saw that she was a pretty girl.

John was even more surprised, in this cloud, he could intercept his plane, he thought that some strange-shaped big-headed short-footed aliens would emerge, but he didn't expect it to be the same breed of human beings as himself.

John wondered if it could be aliens who looked like humans, aliens of the same ancestor as humans, or something like that. So he approached the girl and greeted her: "Hi, hello beauty, are you free now?"

The girl stopped drawing, looked at John, and said, "It's you, you're the human who wants to knock out our city with a dry ice cannonball!"

John was astonished: "Ah, you know me? So happy!"

Girl: "No, I just saw you on TV today, you're the human who drove a farm plane as a fighter and wanted to knock us out of the clouds." β€œ

John: "Hoho, I'm still on TV, I'm not as well-known as you on Earth." Tell me, what the hell is this place, what kind of creatures are you?"

Girl: "I know you're a human on Earth, and you don't understand what you're seeing, aren't you?"

John: "I, I'm a human being, chemically speaking, it's supposed to be a carbon-based organism composed mainly of three elements: carbon, hydroxide, and oxygen, plus some trace elements and metals, to form proteins, sugars, and then make up my physical body. But according to my Chinese classmate An Zhuo, in fact, we human beings should be mainly composed of two parts, one is the body, and the other is the soul, just like the relationship between computer hardware and software, the soul is attached to the body and manipulated the body to form the human beings we see now. The soul can be subdivided into three souls and seven spirits. β€œ

Girl: "Well, the second statement is more accurate, you are born of human beings, mainly composed of solid flesh composed of souls and carbon-based proteins. In fact, in essence, we are the same as you, and our souls are also composed of three souls and seven spirits, so in essence, we are all human beings. But we still have a difference, we belong to natural human beings, and you belong to terrestrial human beings, and our souls are not attached to solid bodies, but to a substance that is not solid, not liquid, not gas, close to plasma, to form human beings. β€œ

John was shocked: "No! There is such a thing, it's so bizarre." I always thought that there were only human beings like us on the earth, but I didn't expect that there were relatives of the same origin and different species in the sky!"

Girl: "Yes, everything in the world is divided into yin and yang, and people are the same, if there are only human beings of your species, wouldn't it be too asymmetrical." β€œ

John: "It seems that you humans in heaven know more than we humans on earth, so tell me where it all came about." β€œ
