This day was the legendary end of the world, but this day was very peaceful, and there were no major disasters such as the destruction of the earth, the reversal of the poles, tsunami floods, fires from the sky, and not even a small earthquake.

Of course, on this day, there is no natural disaster anywhere in the world, Yin Zhiping doesn't know, anyway, there is no problem in the city where he lives. When I woke up in the morning, the sun rose as usual, and there was no world that would be plunged into darkness forever as rumored to be.

Most people don't take the end of this world seriously, they should get up, they should go to work, what should they do anyway, it's no different from the past. Yin Zhiping has never taken the end of this world seriously, but just in case, he gave himself a day off today, otherwise he would still be busy with work after the end of the real world, it would be really a cup.

Originally, he quit his job and didn't go to work, and opened a design studio with others, just for a free and easy job, and casual working hours, how could he let himself be busy and tired on such a "special" day?

I woke up in the morning with urine and got up in a daze to go to the bathroom. Yin Zhiping looked at the table below, about eight o'clock, and looked at the window, although the curtains were covered, through the light through the gap, he could see that it was already bright outside.

"Cut, just know what kind of world the end of this world is bluffing!"

I slept until three o'clock in the morning, and I woke up at noon.

Wake up and turn on the computer as usual, and then wash up a little. Then I took my laptop to the kitchen and cooked my own brunch while surfing the news. It's all about the rumors of the end of the world being broken, and there are some related anecdotes. After browsing, I found that many of them were repetitive, and I was not very interested, so I turned off the chat software on the web, and then had breakfast and lunch while chatting with a few friends in the group.

While chatting, the phone rang, and when I picked it up, it was my mother calling. As usual, I asked him about his physical condition first, whether he had eaten, and then he said that he wanted to come to the house in the evening and have a meal together as a family. It was a family dinner, at least once a week, without special accidents, and all members of the family had to be present, which was his father's hard and fast rule.

Yin Zhiping naturally agreed, and when he waited until evening, he dressed up neatly, packed up, and drove to his parents' house.

Today's dinner is actually not at least once a weekend as usual, but is additional. Speaking of it, it is also related to today's "end of the world", although the family does not believe this statement from top to bottom, but after all, it has been widely circulated before, and it has been spread with noses and eyes, and there are many so-called scientific theories, anyway, it seems to be the same thing.

When parents are old, all they want is family harmony and the safety of their children and grandchildren. Although the end of this world is a rumor, it was spread very fiercely before, and now there is nothing to do, it is regarded as a catastrophe, and tonight's dinner is to celebrate the peace of the family.

After dinner, the family sat around and talked about the recent situation, life, work, study, etc. After talking for a while, he talked about Yin Zhiping's lifelong events, which is the top priority in the family at present, and the family takes turns to criticize education, from parents to eldest brothers and sisters-in-law, and even the little niece has to educate him two sentences, saying that Yin Zhiping is simply embarrassed.

At this time, the phone suddenly rang, Yin Zhiping shouted in his heart that it was really life-saving, and hurriedly took out the phone and connected it without looking. It was a friend who had co-opened the design studio with him who called, and it turned out that several of his partners were also planning to celebrate the end of the world today. However, their celebration is not a dinner party, but a drink at the bar, and it is best to hook up with a girl when they come out of the bar. ...,

Yin Zhiping was criticized and educated by his family so much that he couldn't raise his head, this kind of life-saving opportunity naturally couldn't be let go, after hanging up the phone, he said to his parents, brother and sister-in-law and ran out of his parents' house.

Before he drove out of the neighborhood where his parents lived, he heard a "bang", followed by a "bang" sound, and the sunroof of his car was smashed by something, splashing the broken glass on his head.

Yin Zhiping hurriedly stepped on the brakes to stop, looked out the car window first, and found that he was almost at the entrance of the community, there were no residential buildings nearby, there were no UFOs in the sky, and there were no flying objects in the sky.

He turned on the lights in the car, first lowered his head and fiddled with the broken glass on his head, and then looked for the culprit in the car. Soon he found a bead the size of a pigeon's egg in the broken glass beneath his driver's seat.

This bead looks like a glass bead at first glance, and it is not too conspicuous in the broken glass in one place, and Yin Zhiping missed it at first sight. But because this bead was larger than other broken glass, and it was round and spherical, Yin Zhiping noticed it again at the second sight. Although the window glass will become finely broken spherical particles to prevent cuts, it will never be broken into a very regular and complete spherical shape, not to mention that the ball is too big, definitely exceeding the thickness of the roof sunroof glass.

Yin Zhiping picked up the bead, put it in front of his eyes and looked closely, and found that the bead was pure and flawless, like a very clear crystal. As for whether it is glass or crystal, Yin Zhiping really can't tell the difference between the two materials. And its hand is warm, and it is very similar to the texture of pearls.

However, it's just like. Yin Zhiping said that this bead could never be made of crystal or pearl, because neither of these materials was hard enough to smash his car window. Although the roof sunroof glass is not as thick and strong as the windshield in front, it is also made of tempered material, and it may not be possible to smash it with a sledgehammer. If the bead is really crystal or pearl, then the two collide, and the bead must be the first to shatter, not his skylight glass.

It is a bit possible that the glass material is a bit possible, if it is high-strength tempered glass, the hardness is enough. But if you want to smash the sunroof glass, the weight of this small bead is a little light, unless it is hit at the speed of a bullet out of the chamber. But even if it is tempered glass, although the force area of this bead is small and the structure is stable, if it hits at this speed, it should at least hit a crack if it is not broken. But this bead is round and flawless, and there is really no trace of damage.

Yin Zhiping is really strange about the material of this bead, and where did it come from, and what made it form an extremely fast speed, which happened to shoot through his car window.

Looking closely, Yin Zhiping suddenly found that the center of the bead lit up with a little light, first white, then black, and then red.........

In an instant, the little light in the center changed many colors in succession, full of colors and uncertainties. Suddenly, the point changed into a line, still changing colors, and at the same time undulating like waves, like the frequency spectrum changes when music is played by music playback software on a computer, with a certain rhythm, but no sound.

In an instant, the line became several lines, intersecting at the central point, and radiating in all directions from the central point. In the blink of an eye, the flickering wave lines changed into geometric figures, square, round, long, and flat, from one to an infinite number. At the end, it is like a kaleidoscope, changing into a variety of patterns, colorful and endless, and the interior of the car is also reflected in the brilliance, with a dreamlike sense of magnificence.

It's a long time, but it's only a short moment from the inside of the bead that lights up a little light to a kaleidoscopic pattern. And from that little bit of light, Yin Zhiping was deeply attracted by it, his eyes stared at this bead without blinking, as if he was enchanted, not only his eyes seemed to be glued, but even his whole spirit seemed to be absorbed by the changing patterns and colors of this bead. ...,

Suddenly, the changing pattern of the beads changed again, and the kaleidoscopic pattern disappeared and an image appeared. The image shows the appearance of the earth in space, and this earth is on fire everywhere, constantly exploding, as if the end of the world is really happening, and the earth is being destroyed.

The images change again, showing that the people of the earth are fleeing in panic in the midst of the disaster, but it is difficult to escape the pace of the apocalypse. Volcanic eruptions, fires from the sky, cracking of the earth, rolling of rock oars, and continuous explosions quickly drowned cities in the fires, and human beings could not escape, and the cities were lost. The Earth was quickly destroyed by fires and explosions.

The image changed again, and it was an earth again, but this time the disaster was a great flood, flooding everywhere, and all the cities were submerged. After the flood is over, it returns to the original point again, and an earth reappears, but this time the earth stops and the poles are reversed, and when it is finished, it is reset again, and a nuclear war breaks out on the earth......

Again and again, the earth is constantly being destroyed by different disasters in this bead.

And Yin Zhiping was horrified to find that these disasters that destroyed the earth were all what he had imagined. Although he doesn't believe in the end of the world, it doesn't mean that he can't even imagine it. Prior to this, he had also imagined how the earth would be destroyed if the end of the world really came. He had imagined all the methods of destruction that had been circulating and that he could come up with, but it was only imaginary, and he had not even imagined specific images and situations.

But now, this bead has embodied all his imaginary ideas in the form of images, and has automatically supplemented the details, making these pictures look as if they were all real.

Looking at the beads that embodied these imaginations of himself as detailed images, Yin Zhiping suddenly became frightened, and threw the beads to the empty seat on the dashboard with shaking hands. As soon as the beads left his hand, the images disappeared and turned back into ordinary beads like glass beads.

Yin Zhiping took a breath, but he knew that this bead was by no means ordinary. After glancing out and making sure that nothing had happened to the earth he was on, Yin Zhiping breathed a sigh of relief. After seeing so many images of the destruction of the earth just now, he was really afraid that it was a little true.

Looking at the smashed skylight glass and the broken glass slag on the ground, and feeling the cold wind coming in after the skylight opened, Yin Zhiping shuddered, and also confirmed that what happened just now was true. Looking at the bead on the dashboard again, Yin Zhiping wanted to reach out and pick it up again, but he took it back halfway.

"Let's go back first and study slowly!"

Yin Zhiping made up his mind and drove home at speed, and the partner's bar appointment was naturally not going, and the sunroof glass was also planned to be changed tomorrow. On the way, he made a random excuse and called to apologize for pushing the bar appointment.
