Chapter 47: The Gaia Consciousness Hypothesis (2-in-1)
As the "mushroom monster" pulled out the terrifying glass bottle, the bird bombers, instead of scattering birds and beasts, flew higher and screamed more fiercely.
"Gah! Ga! ”
"Wow wow!"
If he could kill people with a roar, Zhang Ming might have died a hundred times.
Of course, the egg is just an egg after all, not a really hatched bird, and Zhang Ming will not take it all out at once for sustainable development, and will always keep a few in their nests.
So the "bombers" wandered around for a day or two, and found that it had no effect, so they died down and obediently went back to continue incubating eggs.
.
.
"Boom!"
A bolt of lightning swept through the sky, lead-gray clouds obscured the sun unconsciously, and icy rain fell from the sky and soaked through clothes.
Recently, the climate has not been very good, sunny days are rare, and rainy days are the majority, but Zhang Ming's mood is like chewing Xuanmai chewing gum, he can't stop at all, and his every move is full of energy.
"Another good day for a good harvest!"
Zhang Ming guessed in his heart that the rainy season belonging to this island was coming soon.
He didn't want to go out in the pouring rain to find food.
Hurry up and get back to your tin house.
Carefully remove the eggs from the backpack and place them in a large suitcase.
"One, two, three......"
The crate contained a box of sawdust and colorful bird eggs!
"Thirty-five, thirty-six......"
Zhang Ming enjoyed his own unique happiness, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.
Even if he knew exactly how many eggs he had, who could refuse the joy of a good harvest?
"101 pieces in total! Breaking through a hundred! ”
In addition to the two regular foods of crab jerky and coconut meat, there are also bird eggs, which are further abundant.
Oh, and with the addition of mushrooms, the rate of attribute improvement soars!
"I can eat three eggs a day, and I can last for more than a month."
"After a month, maybe they'll be able to lay new eggs...... Well, sustainability is the best. ”
Then he had a new trouble, because there were many kinds of eggs, and in addition to seagulls, there were also puffins, egrets, albatrosses, and some seabirds that he didn't know very well.
These eggs bring new abilities.
New superpowers, which require more attribute points to activate......
It's a vicious circle!
"There are too many superpowers, what should I do if I don't have enough attribute points?"
Lying on the chair, Zhang Ming thought tangledly.
……
……
……
Earth.
"Good morning, comrades."
"The No. 16 mystery area may have entered the rainy season, which is a major test for Zhang Ming's future survival."
At the morning meeting of the new day, Li Xianfeng rubbed his temples and clicked a few mouse clicks to transmit the latest mirage image to the big screen.
The scene was gray, drizzling, and it was not very clear.
Many experts discussed: "I don't think it's a big problem in a short period of time, he has enough food and plenty of firewood." We've been reminded of all this on the air. ”
"It's better not to go out in the rain during the rainy season, even if he is strong, what if he gets sick and has a fever?"
Li Xianfeng shook his head and said: "It's not a big problem, our Comrade Xiao Zhang is not only alive, but also digging bird eggs with great interest." In what way did he terrorize the birds on the island. ”
He even wrote some words on the beach with leaves. We imagined him to be too simple, and there were so many things that we didn't need to be reminded of. ”
Take a screenshot of one of the frames and zoom it in.
One of the leaf-covered lines on the beach reads: "Salted duck eggs." ”
What does it mean?
Of course, they were asked to show the way the salted duck eggs were made on the radio!
Many experts were silent, looking at each other speechlessly, this guy is a big fish and meat on an isolated island every day, and now he is still playing life, and people who don't know still think that he is on vacation in the rainforest!
Thanks to them, they racked their brains and worked hard, for fear that this guy would suddenly die violently, and there was a feeling that the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was in a hurry.
Of course, there are two other lines of text on the beach that have attracted the attention of scholars.
"Ask for advice on the principles and how to make a Faraday cage."
"There are natives, come quickly!"
The amount of information in these two lines of text is a bit large, which makes the expert team a little suspicious.
"What does he want the Faraday cage to do? Are you afraid of being struck by lightning? Or maybe there's a lightning-blasting monster on the island? Li Xianfeng asked with a wrinkle.
Faraday cage, a device for protection against high-voltage electricity.
The cage is connected to the earth, and when a high-voltage electricity hits the metal cage, a strong current is channelled underground, leaving the humans hiding in the cage unscathed.
This physical phenomenon has many applications at the level of voltage protection, direct lightning protection, and even in the field of magic.
For example, David Bryan wore 12.2 kilograms of metal armor to challenge a million-volt electric shock, using this principle.
But what does Zhang Ming need the specific principle of Faraday cage to do?
As for the line "there are indigenous", the amount of information is even greater, and the expert team can't even determine whether this sentence is true and reliable, or whether it is blowing up.
To be honest, Zhang Ming's actions these days are a bit sneaky, and there is no way for the mirage to track.
Everyone was a little worried about his mental state, so they specially extended the broadcast time, from the original half an hour to the current hour.
The knowledge of survival in the wilderness has been said many times, let him wait in place, learn from Master De to build a shelter, and don't run around like Master Pei.
But...... It's useless!
After a moment of silence, Li Xianfeng cleared his throat and said a little helplessly: "He wants the knowledge of Faraday cage, satisfy him as much as possible, and send it over through satellite radio." ”
"As for the news of the natives and the like, it's not impossible, but it's on our side...... I can't help it! ”
"Even if there really is an indigenous civilization on that island, what can we do? We can't figure out where the others are......"
.
Regarding the possible existence of intelligent civilizations in the mysterious area, everyone has discussed many times in private.
A glimpse of Sputnik outlines a vast and boundless, deep and vast parallel world.
The area of the mysterious area is much, much larger than that of the earth.
Even, it may be a thousand, ten thousand times the earth!
Quantitative change brings qualitative change, and it is not surprising that such a huge ocean area gives birth to another intelligent civilization.
"Zhang Ming's information, sort it out and send it in the afternoon." Li Xianfeng said: "Comrades, there are two things to discuss next. ”
"The first is about the rescue plan for the survivors in the mysterious area. This is also one of the few international collaborations in modern times. ”
"Academician Ge, please briefly introduce the satellite data that has been analyzed in recent days."
Although the artificial satellite sent a few days ago only worked for more than a dozen seconds, it was able to analyze some basic contents with the radio wave data obtained in a short time.
The gray-haired Academician Ge held a thick stack of materials, two dark circles on his face, and said a little tiredly: "The first conclusion is that the satellite has received long-wave communications sent by international cooperators. It means that the four mysterious regions of the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the Arctic Ocean are essentially connected and are the same world. ”
"We can think of the mystery zone as a huge and vast parallel world."
"The earth we currently live in has been 'embedded' into this vast parallel world through an unknown form."
"And the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the Arctic Ocean are actually the entrances to the mysterious zone."
A young doctor raised his hand and gestured, "You mean that the Earth we live on is becoming part of the Mystery Zone?" ”
"That's right, as you know, it's easy to get lost after entering the mysterious zone, and if you don't connect inside and outside through the rope, even if you are close at hand, it will be difficult to find the location of the earth."
Academician Ge said lightly: "This is a special spatial phenomenon, and with our current scientific and technological system, we cannot understand this spatial phenomenon for the time being. ”
"To paraphrase some idealistic statements: the Earth is deliberately avoiding the fate of being assimilated by the mysterious zone. It hides itself to avoid the risks in the Mystery Zone. ”
"As Westerners say, God protects humanity, otherwise the end of the world would have happened long ago."
Of course, we don't believe in the existence of God. We agree that there is a Gaia-like existence that has given us a little help in this great calamity. ”
Gaia Consciousness!
Li Xianfeng couldn't help but straighten his waist.
The Gaia hypothesis is a major research hotspot in the current paranormal field.
This hypothesis holds that the appearance of the mirage is an instinctive self-saving act of the earth's "Gaia consciousness".
It's like when the human body is sick, it will spontaneously activate the immune system; Now there is a possibility that the earth will be "swallowed" by the mysterious zone, and there will be a strong tendency to save itself.
This hypothesis further infers that the outbreak of disasters in major regions is the resonance of human group consciousness.
As the collective consciousness of the earth, the "Gaia consciousness" is connected with all things in the world, from fungi and bacterial spores to forests, grasslands, lakes and seas.
But it is undeniable that the biggest variable is actually human beings.
When a group is wiped out in the mirage, the entire human community spontaneously emerges with the idea that the race is not fit to survive in the apocalypse.
This view is so strong, so strong that it resonates with the group, thus influencing the "Gaia consciousness" and causing great disasters in the region.
That is, it was the spontaneous collective consciousness of humanity that allowed Gaia to destroy the country, and not the so-called "punishment of God".
This hypothesis is actually quite metaphysical, some chains of evidence still need to be collected, and there are many disputes between believers and unbelievers.
But in any case, it can be regarded as a logically barely complete statement.
The so-called "science" is like this, it does not exclude the emergence of unknown phenomena, nor is it a rigid box. When unknown phenomena arise, scientists will try to establish a more complete system to incorporate and explain the unknown phenomena.
After talking for a long time, Academician Ge found that it was a little far, coughed lightly, and pulled back to the topic: "Let's push back the time to more than a month ago, when the outbreak of the global earthquake was essentially a global shock caused by the earth's 'mosaic' into the mysterious zone. ”
"On the boundary between the Earth plane and the mysterious zone, there is a large displacement in space, so those unfortunate people may be 'teleported' to a far away place by mistake."
"This kind of long-distance spatial displacement only happens in that moment, and now that we have entered the mysterious area, this kind of spatial displacement phenomenon will no longer occur."
Li Xianfeng nodded slightly.
Academician Ge continued: "On the basis of the above hypothesis, China's previously launched artificial satellite has heard two electromagnetic wave signals. ”
"The first is the large cruise ship of Mirage 1, the ship that carried 3,000 passengers, about 12,000 kilometers to the southwest. The signal source is simple, using the SOS that is transmitted by radio. ”
"The second is the Arctic Ocean team, in the northeast, at a distance of 17,000 kilometers. The source of the signal is simple, radio-transmitted Mayday. ”
"The above two data are not completely accurate, and at least two satellites are needed to be able to locate more accurately. However, the overall credibility is still high. ”
This news is really exciting, the three teams that entered the finals were actually found by a satellite!
There are indeed some nationals among them, who are from the Great Xia country!
As long as you know the general location of these two teams, there is a possibility of rescue!
There was a "buzz" of discussion in the room.
"Are the energy reserves on their ships enough to span more than 10,000 kilometers?"
"It's not possible, they're short on energy and they don't have much food. So we have to send warships, planes, to meet them. ”
"So, it's one of the few international joint efforts."
Spending a lot of manpower and material resources to rescue the international team is not a big heart.
On the one hand, it is indeed to reduce the occurrence of geographical disasters.
On the other hand, being able to create a more relaxed diplomatic environment is a kind of diplomatic bargaining chip.
Due to the drastic harshness of the living environment, the clouds of war loom over the heads of human civilization.
In some areas, there is already a war.
The earth can no longer support such a large number of people, who will die, who will survive? Who is friends with whom, and who is enemies with whom?
These are questions that must be thought through.
The world with turbulent undercurrents, the spiraling of human civilization, and the massive expansion of the military in every country, yesterday will always be better than today, and tomorrow will always be worse than today. Even if it is a big country, it has to be cautious and take every step to avoid the possibility of wolves hunting.
Li Xianfeng is even a little glad that he lives in a large country with strong industrial capacity, and the work he is engaged in is relatively academic, and he is a little far away from the politics of intrigue and intrigue.
There's a lot going on, and it's really exhausting.
After everyone finished discussing, Li Xianfeng spoke again: "Everyone, in addition to rescuing the survivors, there is a second task, we need to deploy a large scientific research base near the junction between the Pacific Ocean and the mysterious area. ”
"The training plan and research plan for superpowers will be officially launched within a month!"
About one-tenth of the humans who enter the mysterious area have activated their superpowers, and this number makes the upper echelons very excited!
The cost is much cheaper than eating monster meat, and mutated creatures on the earth are still scarce.
Even if most of the abilities are physical abilities, who would refuse better physical fitness, more talents, or even ...... What about a higher lifespan?
