Chapter 8 Chapter 7 God

I told Zhang Taifeng what I was thinking, and Zhang Taifeng immediately said: "Of course, time is running out. Dian Xiwei must have done everything he can to leave such a precious clue for us." I cursed inwardly as "nasty" - Zhang Taifeng is like all people in love, everything about the lover is good.The mark Dian Xiwei left behind is actually useless, but he said it was precious! Although I didn't curse out loud, I couldn't help but sarcastically: "Precious? May I ask what is your precious understanding of the highest arrow?" While struggling to climb, Zhang Taifeng panted and replied: "The arrow is up, which means she and the expedition team..."

Zhang Taifeng obviously wanted to say "Dian Xiwei and the expedition team move forward".But before the words were spoken, he felt something was wrong, so he stopped in embarrassment. I said coldly: "Yes, they continued to go up, stepping on the air and going to the sky!" Zhang Taifeng made a strange sound at first, and then said: "According to the arrows, they should go to the sky. Of course, there is no need to step on the air to go to the sky. There are many ways for people to go to the sky." I had been satirizing Zhang Taifeng all the time, but when I heard him say this, I couldn't help but startled for a moment, thinking that what this young man said made sense, at least it opened up a blind spot that I didn't expect.

After I heard the helicopter report that there was also an arrow symbol on the top of the cliff, I only thought that since I reached the top of the cliff, it would be impossible to go up, so this arrow symbol cannot be explained.I didn't expect that people, if they have transportation, of course they can go to the sky. When I came to the top of the cliff, I flew up by helicopter. So in theory, the highest arrow symbol is not completely inexplicable.Although there are many, many questions in the future, the arrow symbol indicates that the expedition team continues to go up, which should be what the person who drew the mark wanted to express!

Thinking of this, my thoughts became more disordered.All kinds of ideas came one after another, and gradually a picture appeared in my mind that I didn't want to believe.This picture is that in the sky on the top of the cliff, there is a strangely shaped aircraft, and there is something like a ladder hanging from the aircraft, and the expedition team is quickly climbing up the ladder, entering the aircraft, and then the aircraft emits a strange light , Straight into the sky. I really don't want to accept such a picture, because if there is such a situation, the only explanation is that a "UFO" took the entire expedition away.

I don't want to accept such a possibility, not because I don't believe in the existence of "unidentified flying objects", nor do I not believe in the existence of aliens related to it.In fact, in my experience, many have to do with aliens. It is precisely because of this that when some people come into contact with my narrative, they will laugh at it: Aliens again! The only reason for people who hold this statement is that they do not believe in the existence of aliens, or they are more advanced and believe in the existence of aliens, but they do not think that aliens have been to the earth.

It's purely a matter of insight and imagination.Just imagine the era when China was closed to the outside world. If you told a woodcutter in Yandang Mountain who had never left the mountain all his life that there were people with blond hair and green eyes in the world, he would not believe it. Not only would he not believe it, but he would try his best knowledge to come up with words to laugh at your statement. I know that in the vast universe, there must be many advanced creatures on the planets. I also know that aliens have not only been to the earth in the past, but also come one after another. Many of them have been on the earth for a long time and have activities for various purposes. There will also be more aliens coming to Earth.

The activities of aliens on the earth, because they are beyond the knowledge range of the earth people, cannot be explained scientifically by the earth people, so various "strange things" have been formed. Human beings have recorded many unexplainable strange events from ancient times to the present, and they have been inexplicable for thousands of years, which is the reason. And these many, many strange things are actually related to aliens in all likelihood. When I narrate my experience, I choose more weird things, because weird things are more interesting, so of course more aliens are involved.

Knowing this, there is absolutely no fuss about the appearance of aliens in Wesley's story. However, of course, not every story is related to aliens (in fact, it is not impossible). In order to diversify the stories, I even deliberately avoided stories related to aliens, and sacrificed some weird and incredible stories. , Stories that go far beyond what human imagination can accept. The reason why I was unwilling to accept the picture that came to my mind after listening to Zhang Taifeng's words on the top of the cliff was also based on this psychological state. I shook my head vigorously at the time, trying to drive the thought away.But the big arrow mark was right in front of my eyes, telling me strongly: The expedition team went to the sky from here!

Although I didn't say anything at the time, but because what I thought was really amazing, my breath was heavy. Zhang Taifeng noticed this, and he asked repeatedly: "Did you discover something else?" I breathed a sigh of relief: "There is no new discovery—it was what you said just now that triggered my new assumptions." Then I spoke my mind. Zhang Taifeng didn't make a sound for quite a while, and then asked out of breath, "Are they...the expedition team taken away by aliens?" I smiled wryly: "Don't use the word 'captive'. This word contains hostility. If they really went on some kind of flying vehicle, I believe they did it voluntarily."

My words didn't make Zhang Taifeng feel any easier, he said with a crying sound: "Anyway, they... they all left with the aliens... Where can I find Dian Xiwei?" After speaking, there was another whimpering sound from him, and he said, "I can't even look for her like the King of Witches looking for Dr. Yuan Zhenxia!" Zhang Taifeng immediately thought of Dr. Yuan Zhenxia who was lost in the vast universe, so his voice sounded extremely bewildered and helpless. I had no choice but to comfort him: "It doesn't have to be aliens, the helicopter that brought me up just now can also take them away."

Zhang Taifeng smiled wryly, and I said, "Do you want to come up according to the original plan or wait for the helicopter to pick you up?" Zhang Taifeng paused for a while before saying: "Since Dian Xiwei came up the mountain, I want to be like her." After speaking, maybe in order to avoid me calling him stupid, he added embarrassingly: "I hope I can find something." I said: "I hope—since Dian Xiwei can leave the arrow symbol, if there was an alien flying vehicle waiting for them on the cliff at that time, she should at least draw the appearance of that flying vehicle." Zhang Taifeng said: "I will try my best to pay attention." Our conversation has temporarily come to an end. On the top of the cliff, looking around, we can see that it is very far away.Looking to the opposite side, there are higher cliffs, and looking forward, there are one canyon after another, and the rushing water is rushing. Looking to the other side, the plains and forests can be vaguely seen beyond the rolling mountains, and the scenery is excellent. After watching for a while, I started to communicate with the helicopter. The helicopter reported that I would be back in two hours. I asked them to send the videotape with the arrow mark on the cliff that they recorded just now to her after contacting Bai Su, and Tell Bai Su that I am on the top of the cliff, waiting to hear her opinion. About half an hour later, I received a signal from Bai Su asking for contact, and I immediately notified Zhang Taifeng, asking him to join our conversation. Then Bai Su's voice was heard. Bai Su's first sentence said: "The expedition team has gone to heaven!" It is quite natural to draw such a conclusion from those arrows, especially the tallest one.Although there are still many questions that follow.In any case, with Bai Su having such a conclusion, it is much easier to continue discussing with her. The conversation between Bai Su and I can be shortened to the minimum. I asked, "Aliens?" Bai Su replied: "The possibility is very high." I asked again: "Did it appear by chance, or was it related to the experience of the expedition team?" Bai Su replied: "It's not sure yet." I asked again, "Why is the possibility of aliens involved so high?" Bai Su's answer was beyond my expectation - or I never thought of this question. Bai Su said: "From the arrow marks left on the cliff, we can know that the expedition team, or at least the people who left the marks, went up the mountain in a very special way." It's not that Bai Su didn't understand what she said, but for a while I really couldn't fully understand what she meant, so I hesitated for a while. At this time, Zhang Taifeng interjected: "Now I am next to the third arrow symbol, and I also feel this way." Bai Su immediately said: "It would be better for you to explain. After all, I only saw it from the video tape, and you are observing it on the spot." I muttered: "It doesn't matter who says it, please say it quickly." Zhang Taifeng still hesitated for a moment before saying: "The third arrow symbol is left on a protruding boulder. I am now beside this boulder, and I can't reach the place where the symbol is left on the boulder. Even if there is an excellent climbing It takes a lot of time and effort to leave symbols on the boulders." Zhang Taifeng explained it in detail enough, but I still don't quite understand it.I asked, "What does that mean?" Zhang Taifeng said: "This...it means...Dian Xiwei was in a very...strange situation when he left the symbol..." He spoke hesitatingly, obviously he had an idea, but he was also very suspicious of his own idea, that's why this happened. I was a little impatient, so I raised my voice: "What's weird? Could it be that she left this symbol while hanging in mid-air?" Under my loud questioning, Zhang Taifeng seemed even less confident, he said: "It is... possible. But... But..." Before he finished speaking, Bai Su said: "There is no need to 'but', the person who left the mark must have not climbed the cliff at that time, but climbed close to the cliff at a very high speed." Bai Su actually made such an incredible assumption, I really don't know how to react.But Zhang Taifeng couldn't wait to respond: "Yes! Yes! That's how it should be. She ascended quickly." Zhang Taifeng was stuttering just now, but now he is very fluent.I was angry: "Ascend! How to ascend? She became a fairy, soaring in the daytime?" Zhang Taifeng's thinking may be quite close to Bai Su's, but he is immature, so under my questioning, he can't think he is right. Bai Su smiled: "Now I can only imagine how she and the entire expedition team ascended." I paused: "Begging for more details." Bai Su said: "There can be many hypotheses, divided into two situations." She spoke very seriously, and I also said "um", indicating that I was listening carefully. Bai Su said: "The first scenario has nothing to do with aliens. It may be that a helicopter was in the sky, and the rope ladder was lowered. The expedition team grabbed the rope ladder and was pulled into the helicopter." I turned what Bai Su said into a picture in my mind.In such a case, man is indeed approaching the cliff and ascending. I made a sound that I could accept this scenario. Bai Su continued: "The second situation is related to aliens. You can imagine more, for example, the alien's aircraft has an attraction, sucking people up, etc. You can imagine it in one Make more than ten in minutes." I smiled wryly in my heart, and it was difficult to tell whether Bai Su said this was a compliment or a derogation to me! I thought for a while, and said, "Just because there is a mark left on a protruding boulder, it is difficult to reach the conclusion that the person who left the mark rose rapidly." Bai Su replied immediately: "Yes, there is another evidence that can reach such a conclusion. This evidence is especially obvious on the highest arrow symbol." At that time, I was next to the highest arrow symbol, and I heard Bai Su say this. I stared at this symbol, but I couldn't see what it was. I didn't make a sound, just took a deep breath. Bai Su knew that I didn't understand, she said: "The first reason that made me think of this conclusion is that the straight line marked by the arrow is very straight - if a straight line is sprayed out while climbing up the cliff, it will It is very difficult to maintain such a straight line over a meter." Bai Su said all the way, I thought all the way, and I really think what Bai Su said is very reasonable.Since the straight line is very straight, it is assumed that the person leaves a straight line when he rises straight - in this case, as long as the nozzle of the can is pressed down, a very straight line will be left as the person rises. Thinking of this point, I understood a lot, so I also found that there is a considerable distance between the two parts of the arrow and the straight line. It would be tedious to explain this point in words, but it is easier to understand it with diagrams. Under normal circumstances, the arrow symbol should look like this: (omitted) And now, the tallest one and the rest I have seen are like this: (omitted) Where the arrow and the straight line meet, they do not touch, and there is a considerable distance.And the two sides of the arrow are also long and the other is much shorter. This situation, of course, is more in line with the speculation that the person who left the mark is rising rapidly.Just because the person is rising, there is a distance between the straight line and the arrow, and after spraying the slanted line on one side, and then spraying the other side, since the person has risen, the other side becomes very short. When I figured this out, I admired Bai Su's subtle observation ability.At the same time, I don't think Zhang Taifeng has the same power of observation, although Bai Su agreed as soon as he suggested that people be promoted quickly. Sure enough, after I figured out why Bai Su came to such a conclusion, Zhang Taifeng asked instead: "What's so special about the arrow symbol?" I just stated what I observed. Zhang Taifeng said "ah": "It seems that when she first ascended, she knew that she would cross the cliff and go to the sky!" Zhang Taifeng only had Dian Xiwei in his heart, so when he spoke, he was only targeting Dian Xiwei, not the entire expedition team.But the fact should be that Dian Xiwei's actions are consistent with the entire expedition team.In other words, when the entire expedition team began to ascend at the foot of the cliff, they knew they would go to heaven. At that time, was there any strange phenomenon in the sky? Is there an aircraft?Or something else weird? Did the expedition ascend voluntarily, or was it forced to ascend? Ascending was not the direction the expedition had originally traveled, and there must have been powerful reasons for their ascent. All of a sudden, I thought of many questions, but there were no answers. I expected Bai Su to have an answer, but Bai Su agreed with Zhang Taifeng and said: "That's right, she should have known that she would go to the sky as soon as she started her ascension—it's because things are so extraordinary, she knew that after she went to the sky, her behavior would be different." Unpredictable, she knew that someone would come looking for her, so she left a series of marks to tell others about her extraordinary experience when she rose rapidly and was in a very difficult situation." I couldn't help but add a sentence: "It's not the extraordinary experience of Dian Xiwei alone, but the extraordinary experience of the entire expedition team. It's a pity that the marks left behind cannot be known. Where did they go after they went to the sky?" .” Bai Su paused for a moment: "The marks left behind can let us know that they have gone to the sky, it is already very difficult." I snorted: "Don't you think there are more and more complicated problems with these marks?" This is indeed the case - without these marks, the expedition team simply disappeared, but now it is after the expedition team went to the sky that they disappeared.Just how they will go to heaven is already unimaginable. Bai Su said: "Although it is complicated, you can know that they are safe." Zhang Taifeng obviously believed in Bai Su unconditionally, so when he heard Bai Su say this, he was greatly relieved.I was very skeptical: "How can I see it?" Bai Su said: "The expedition team brought a lot of supplies. According to the data, each person carried an average of 40 kilograms. These supplies are necessary for the expedition team's itinerary. Now that the expedition team has disappeared, none of these supplies remained—— " When Bai Su said this, I couldn't help interrupting her, because I felt that what she said had nothing to do with the safety of the expedition team after it disappeared.I said, "Please get to the point." Bai Su's tone was very calm: "Since the expedition team can still carry a large amount of supplies, it can be inferred that they are in a good situation and there is no problem with their safety." I couldn't help but laugh: "What kind of logic is this!" Bai Su said: "It's very simple - if they encounter violence, their belongings must not be kept, and they will be scattered everywhere." The inference made by Bai Su actually has no real basis, it is just a result of "taking it for granted". However, it is difficult to completely overturn her statement. I asked: "Our speculation is that the expedition team went to the sky, and they took all the equipment with them?" Bai Su replied: "Yes, in this situation, it can be inferred that the power that caused them to go to heaven has no malicious intentions. Otherwise, why bother to care about equipment when killing people?" For Bai Su's optimistic statement, I still can't fully agree with it, but it's hard to refute it for a while, so I stopped talking and changed the topic: "How is the situation on your side?" Unexpectedly, Bai Su said: "I think the matter here has come to an end. Hong Ling and I will meet you as soon as possible - I have already contacted the helicopter that came back to refuel, and they will bring us here." Due to the surprise, before I had time to react, Zhang Taifeng had already let out a cheer. Of course, I am very happy that Bai Su and Hong Ling can join me.I asked casually: "We have been talking for a long time, but Hong Ling didn't interrupt." Bai Su said: "She is not around now, she will come soon." I was anxious to know what Bai Su found, so I suggested: "You wait for the helicopter to come, and the helicopter will take a lot of time to fly. Why don't you use this time to tell me what you found. I am alone on the top of the cliff, It's boring beyond imagination." Bai Su smiled and said: "I'm afraid it will keep you bored, because what happened here is quite simple, and we will finish it soon." I also laughed and said: "Maybe you might as well learn from the storyteller in the past and make things longer. I heard that there are master storytellers who talked about desperately trying to rob Sanlang Shixiu. He jumped down from the restaurant with a loud cry. From the beginning From the jump to the landing, it was said for a month, and the audience still listened with gusto." Bai Su said: "I don't have such ability, try my best." So Bai Su began to talk about what happened to her.Before she spoke, I reminded Zhang Taifeng and those two to listen carefully to Bai Su's narration.I believe that Bai Su's narration must be quite attractive, which can properly reduce their fatigue of climbing the cliff. And myself, on the top of the cliff, found a leeward place, leaned on a big rock, and sat down.Looking far away, the scenery is beautiful, and you can listen to Bai Su's narration, and the mountain breeze is gentle. If there are not too many questions circling in your heart, it can be said to be a pleasure. After I boarded the helicopter and left, the first thing Bai Su did, which was beyond my expectation, was not to investigate the scene of the bank robbery, but to find Aunt Joan with Fernando! I just heard this, and couldn't help but said, "What's the use of finding such a country witch!" As soon as I took more mouthfuls, Bai Su stopped talking.Zhang Taifeng and those two shouted together: "Don't interrupt the conversation!" I paused for a moment and didn't say anything else, and then Bai Su continued to narrate. She explained the reason why she went to find Aunt Qiao An. One of the reasons why Bai Su went to find Aunt Qiao An was because the old lady was there at the time and witnessed everything that happened. If she needed to know what happened again, Aunt Qiao An would be able to provide first-hand information . Although I still don't think it's necessary, because everything that happened was recorded on video tape, it couldn't be more real.If you listen to a country witch narrate the story, even if she has a good memory, she must add embellishments when she narrates, which is by no means as true as the video tape record. I just thought about it and didn't say anything.And Bai Su explained her second reason was for the "God of Fruit Retribution" that Aunt Qiao An said. She felt that what happened in the bank could be connected with the so-called god of karma.Her basis is that "retribution" happens in many different forms, and what happened in the bank is a typical kind of "retribution". The so-called "present eye report" means that the retribution will be realized immediately-the gangster wanted to kill someone, but ended up killing himself. Now that the so-called "retribution" is mentioned, of course everything is inferred according to the logic of so-called retribution, there is no ordinary rationality or irrationality, only whether such a thing will happen in the logic of retribution. The highest principle of retribution is "Evil will be rewarded with evil, and good will be rewarded with good".It is evil for gangsters to kill, so there should be evil rewards.And the gangster turned into shooting himself at the moment when he was about to shoot and kill, and the retribution happened immediately. And according to the logic of retribution, there is a force presiding over the operation of retribution.This kind of power is mysterious and unfathomable—any phenomenon that is unpredictable and deep can be attributed to the power of God. Therefore, it is inevitable that there is a god like the "God of Retribution" who controls the operation of retribution. Bai Su followed the direction of retribution to understand the incredible things that happened in the bank, and he did so only when there was absolutely no other assumptions that could be established. Because although people often talk about "retribution", in fact, it is very, very rare that evil is rewarded with evil and good is rewarded with good. It is rare to see that "retribution" does not exist. . Therefore, Bai Su's characterization of the whole incident as a retribution incident is really illusory, and there are no actual clues to follow. The fact is indeed the case - Bai Su's only clue is the "God of Fruit Retribution" spoken by the country witch. However, Bai Su not only defined what happened in the bank as an incident of retribution, but she further included the incident of the expedition team encountering bandits as a retribution, and it was also a "report". Bai Su's further explanation is: Although the two incidents happened at different times and places, their natures are exactly the same. They were both murdered and robbed by vicious gangsters, but they turned their guns on him.
