Chapter 6: Meteorites and the Moon
Ye Ziyan's Mysterious Anecdotal Society is located in a dark and crowded street near the outskirts of the city, or rather a small alley, where the lights are much sparser, and there are several small parks around, and there are several small artificial lakes in the park where you can fish, and there is a rural feel at night, a crowded countryside.
Obviously, Ye Ziyan is not very rich, otherwise he would not have opened the Mysterious Stories Society in such a remote place: far away from crowds and traffic, although close to the city, there is no trace of the atmosphere of the city. It's also a 'Third World' meeting place, but it's furnished like a tavern with a meeting room.
As soon as Shi Jie entered the door, he smelled a faint smell of wine, and saw Ye Ziyan lying on the sofa, holding a book in his hand, but his eyes were looking at the ceiling. Shi Jie looked at the small Mystery Society, and there was a wooden staircase leading to the second floor, which had a quaint atmosphere, and next to the staircase was a bar in a bar, but behind this bar there were two things, wine and books. The bar counter is facing the sofa where Ye Ziyan is lying, and there is a coffee table in front of the sofa, and there is a small sofa on the left and right of the coffee table. There was also a bookcase behind the couch on which several thick, large books were sparsely arranged. The furnishings of this mysterious anecdote give Shi Jie a hodgepodge of feelings.
Regarding Shi Jie's arrival, Ye Ziyan was not surprised at all.
"Sit." Ye Ziyan said, "It's strange, isn't it, indeed, the arrangement of the Mysterious Anecdotes Society is very strange, this is the same as the current world, nondescript, diverse." ”
"That's exactly how I feel." Ye Ziyan added.
"I ......" Shi Jie had a lot of questions, he had already thought about the questions he wanted to ask on the way here, but those questions disappeared without a trace as soon as they came to his mouth, Shi Jie felt that his brain was blank, and he didn't know where to start for a while.
"Why, it looks like you have more doubts than I thought." Ye Ziyan put down the book and crossed his hands on his chest, "Go on, let's start with the most recent one." His eyes told Shi Jie: Rest assured.
Shi Jie took out his mobile phone and asked Ye Ziyan to look at a few photos he had taken in Gu Guangbo's laboratory and tell about his findings. Ye Ziyan listened expressionlessly, and only glanced at the photo handed by Shi Jie, looking not surprised. Shi Jie felt a little surprised and embarrassed, and was about to stop, but Ye Ziyan nodded a few times and motioned him to continue with his eyes, and Shi Jie finished the matter. At this time, Ye Ziyan said a sentence:
"Actually, it has nothing to do with the 'Third World'. But it has a lot to do with other things, and you would never think about it. ”
"What is this?" Shi Jie asked, his curiosity aroused by Ye Ziyan.
"I heard that your Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics is working with the China Aerospace Center on a project on manned lunar landing and lunar exploration. That's it. Ye Ziyan said unhurriedly, "I can't think of it." ”
This shocked Shi Jie, it really had nothing to do with what he was talking about, and he really couldn't think of it, "What," Shi Jie pointed to the phone on the table, "Do they have anything to do with it?" At this time, Shi Jie inadvertently glanced at the book Ye Ziyan had just read, the title of the book was very special, called "Humble Civilization, Universe Without Boundaries".
Ye Ziyan glanced at Shi Jie and said lightly: "Yes, but it's not directly related." You can't find out this relationship on your own, you need to use the power of the 'third world'. ”
"And I am a member of the 'Third World'" Ye Ziyan chuckled, "Speaking of which, you may not be able to accept that it is the 'meteorite' that has something to do with the moon, not this to have anything to do with the manned lunar landing and lunar exploration project." ”
"So, it's ...... with me What does it have to do with manned lunar landings and lunar exploration projects? ”
Ye Ziyan was silent, stood up slowly, took out a book from the bookcase behind the sofa, turned around and put it on the table, and Shi Jie saw the title of the book: "Pandora's Box".
"In the grassland, there was a scarred wolf, at this time he was being chased by the hunters, at this time he hid in a bush, the hunters did not find him for the time being, unfortunately there was an ant nest next to the bush, those ants may have found him, for him, these ants are not much of a threat to him, but they will gnaw on the wounds of the wolf, make him feel pain and even make sounds. So he had to stop these ants. ”
"It's a very fake story, and it's hard to understand."
Of course, this story has nothing to do with the book. But it has a little to do with you, to be precise, it has something to do with the manned lunar landing and lunar exploration project. Ye Ziyan stared at Shi Jie with both eyes and said word by word.
These nonsensical words and stories surprised Shi Jie very much. He felt that the story had an unsettling layer of horror. "What does it have to do with this?"
"Shift your thinking and think about what a wolf is and what an ant is."
"Huh." Ye Ziyan laughed a few more times, "You still don't think about what a hunter is." ”
"You mean, the meteorite ......" Eze felt a little clue.
"Yes, yes, yes." Ye Ziyan clapped his hands, "Scientists are different, they can understand at one point." You are right, the meteorite is the wolf, and the manned lunar landing and lunar exploration projects are ants, and the 'wolf' is hiding in the 'bushes', and the 'ants' want to bite him. ”
Ye Ziyan's words were very clear, but Shi Jie didn't understand the specific meaning of this sentence, "What does this mean?" Or rather, what do you know? ”
"Whatever you want, sir." Ye Ziyan spread his hands, "That's it, that's all." ”
"Let's be clear." Shi Jie felt a little frustrated.
Ye Ziyan's gaze became cold, "That's all I can tell you." ”
"What the hell do you know?"
"I don't know much more than you do."
Ye Ziyan turned around and turned his back to Shi Jie, "If you want to know the answer, you have to go to other members of the 'Third World'." ”
"Don't ask me, I don't know anything."
Ye Ziyan's hint was already obvious: he didn't know the answer to this matter, and if Shi Jie wanted to know the answer, he would have to go to another member of the 'Third World' that Ye Ziyan had mentioned.
The conversation about the "meteorite" ended here, and after that, no matter how hard Shi Jie tried and how he asked, Ye Ziyan never said a word related to it again, but just repeated the sentence: "I don't know much more than you." Shi Jie clearly saw two words written on Ye Ziyan's face: Let's go.
"I have one more question for you, which has nothing to do with meteorites." Eze was going to make a last-ditch effort.
"What's the problem?"
"What does all this have to do with the Mayan prophecy?"
"This ......" Ye Ziyan pondered for a while and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter much, the Mayan prophecy is just a pretense, a smoke bomb." Of course, there is also a credible element in it, and there are quite a few people in the 'third world' who believe in this. ”
"I now understand that the 'Third World' is not a simple international academic organization, it is more complex than anyone thinks." Shi Jie finally said.
"No, on the contrary, the 'third world' is far simpler than you think, and you all complicate simple problems, but you think too much."
"Goodbye." Shi Jie simply said goodbye, and Ye Ziyan didn't send him off, so Shi Jie walked out of the Mysterious Strange News Society alone and drove away.
Before leaving, Shi Jie put his head out of the window and looked back, and he saw a black sedan parked not far away. After Sze started the car and left, the car also started, following closely behind Szew's car, but Sze didn't notice.
On the way, Shi Jie loosened the reins of his mind and began to seriously think about the connection between several recent events.
Meteorite! The key lies in the meteorite in 1992! Dai Mo, Gu Guangbo, and Ye Ziyan all knew that strange thing! An artificial product in the mouth of Ye Ziyan! Meteorite, what does it really mean?
Just thinking about it, the car had already driven to the gate of the community where Shi Jie was going.
It's an old neighborhood, and the location is far from the city center, and the floors are generally not high.
Shi Jie searched for this community according to the address given by Ye Ziyan, and at the door of the building he was going to, Shi Jie saw an old man with a white head, about sixty years old, wearing a pair of glasses full of age, holding a fishing rod in his left hand, and a bucket in his right hand, who was slowly going up the stairs. This old man has the characteristics common to old intellectuals, and Shi Jie often deals with them. Shi Jie guessed that he was another member of the 'Third World' that Ye Ziyan said. Quickly stepped forward and asked, sure enough, but the old man did not admit that he was a member of the 'Third World', and when he knew that Ye Ziyan introduced him, the old man was stunned for a moment, and then invited Shi Jie to his home as a guest.
So Shi Jie helped the old man carry the bucket and went upstairs with him. Upon entering his house, he found that it was not as quaint as he had imagined, but instead had a large TV, a modern dining table, dining chairs (there was only one), and a new-looking astronomical telescope by the balcony. It's full of modernity.
"Young man, what are you here to ask?" The old man glanced at Shi Jie, and his sharp gaze seemed to see through Shi Jie.
"Senior, I want to ask ......"
