Chapter 11 Chapter Eleven Ending

I declare again that the sources of everything I wrote about the story of the different seas have not been verified.Whether it is all the previous documents about Majia's father, or that day, in the county town near my work, Majia himself dictated the content, I can't distinguish the authenticity of the matter. Of course, I prefer this to be a story. Maybe the waistcoat has continued his father’s character, and he is particularly keen on telling stories, and he has made a lot of efforts for this, and he did not hesitate to integrate himself into the story. A few years ago, I would definitely deny this kind of speculation, but now that I am an Internet writer, I have known many people who are devoted to storytelling. A writer of wonderful stories.The effort they put in for the post is unimaginable to ordinary people.

I'm one of them, no doubt, so I can understand their mentality now. I won’t say more about these nonsense, now let’s talk about Majia, which is the continuation of the story about Yihai that Wu Bing (Majia is the screen name) told me. After communicating with me, Wu Bing got the notes left by his father. At his home in Wuhan, he compiled them into electronic documents while reading them, and sent them to me online.He also visited several places where his father had worked, but they all erased his father's identity.He knew that there was no way to learn more about his father through normal means.So he made a decision to leave his normal life behind and start investigating the places his father had written in his notes.

The first stop is Nanjing. He stayed near XX University for a period of time, trying to find out some of the past events of XX University's magnetic experiment, but found nothing, and no one knew about it. Wu Bing thought about what happened after his father came back, slowly recalling and associating. In 1993, some things happened in the world, the biggest event was the establishment of the European Union.Correspondingly, North America has also established a free trade area. These two clues are very important. The world economic structure has once again undergone major changes, and a new round of competition has begun in the economic game between countries.In the same year, China also began to make efforts to join the "General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade" (the predecessor of the WTO).The six-year-long Uruguay Round negotiations, in which the parties finally began to compromise, ended in 1994.

It is hard for Wu Bing not to connect these incidents with the Operation Different Sea that his father participated in.Because the earth's materials need a lot of gold to enter the foreign sea, no matter how great the world's economy changes, the gold standard economic activities will always occupy an important seat. Wu Bing further contacted that Britain and Denmark did not join the "Maastricht Treaty". Under economic activities, it reveals the competition for power between countries, and the economy is also a part of the war—a part of the surface. Wu Bing asked at XX University if there was a professor named Luo in the 1980s, a professor of physics.No one knew that this person existed.It seems that Lao Luo is the same as Wu Bing's father, all traces have been erased.Wu Bing stayed in Nanjing for a while without gaining anything, so he went to the south again to learn about the "Dan Clan".

There are still Dan people along the coast of Guangdong, but there are not many pure Dan people. They live sporadically on some offshore islands.More Dan people have already landed and integrated into the lives of ordinary people. Wu Bing also found out that the "Dan Clan" does have a sea chart that has been handed down since ancient times-"Water Road Book".But the "Water Road Book" he got was completely different from what was described in his father's notes. Wu Bing continued to ask if there was anyone like Ni Ximei, but within a week, he actually found five or six women with this name.Ni is the surname of the "Dan tribe", and Ximei is a common name for girls in the "Dan tribe".Many "Dan" women have no names for life, and have been called Ximei all their lives.

Wu Bing did not give up, and went to Neihuang again, trying to find out the Cao family back then, but there was still no clue.The Cao family was originally a family hidden among the people. For two thousand years, they have carefully concealed their existence.Moreover, almost thirty years have passed since Wu Bing's father replaced Cao Cang.The appearance of Neihuang has long been changed, and it is really very difficult to find a courtyard for ordinary people who was very ordinary back then. According to the details in the notes, Wu Bing went to several cities along the northern coast.One of the cities is the country's famous submarine base, located in the interior of Bohai Bay.This city is likely to be the base where his father participated in the training.

But it was at this place that Wu Bing was noticed by unknown people.Wu Bing stayed in the military sensitive area for too long, which attracted the attention of the military.After a long interrogation, Wu Bing was not detained because he did not have any camera equipment on him, and Wu Bing also insisted that he was a tourist.After a verbal warning, Wu Bing was sent out of the vicinity of the military area. Wu Bing knew that in these places, there must be no clues related to his father.So he went home again and carefully read the document many times.At this time, he found that his computer was maliciously attacked by hackers, and his mobile phone was often strung together.He is very cautious and sensitive, knowing that someone is already watching his whereabouts.As a firm believer in conspiracy theories, he instinctively reduced contact with the outside world, and the number of contacts with me was also reduced as much as possible.I can understand now that he contacted me later because he used a public phone.

Now everyone should already know where Wu Bing went in the end. He packed up and set off. When he came back, he passed through the province where I am now. Everyone should know the direction. northwest. Wu Bing stayed in the Northwest for a long time. I estimated it was no less than four months.The experiences he told me were the things he investigated privately during the four months. Wu Bing arrived in Gansu in summer. The weather in 2011 was very abnormal. The Northwest is famous for its drought and lack of water. But at this time, the south of the country was extremely dry, while the Northwest had plenty of rain. It lasted for several days, and finally it cleared up for a week or so, and then it started to fall again.Where is the weather in the northwest? It's just the misty and rainy south of the Yangtze River.

Wu Bing stayed in Gansu for several days.He met three young people in Dunhuang, all outdoor enthusiasts.Wu Bing and them got along very well. After playing together for two days, Wu Bing asked if he could accompany them. Those three young people were going to Qinghai and Xinjiang, and they had just come all the way to play. Seeing that Wu Bing was a lonely traveler, they discussed for a while, and finally agreed.After Wu Bing joined, there happened to be two people in one car, and they could drive alternately. The leader of these outdoor enthusiasts is a tall man, about 1.9 meters tall by visual inspection.The two off-road jeeps they drive have on-board radios to communicate with each other, and they are equipped with commonly used outdoor equipment such as miniature trailers, air bag jacks for deserts, electric air pumps, and engineering shovels.

The tall guy who took the lead was called "Haizi" by everyone.Wu Bing was very interested in this name because it had the same name as a certain poet.The last word of Haizi's full name is "Hai", so they all call him Haizi. There are two other people named Feng and Zou. Xiao Feng and Xiao Zou are lovers.They drove a Mitsubishi, and Wu Bing and Haizi drove another Pathfinder. The two cars set off from Dunhuang and headed west along the highway. The scenery along the way is very beautiful, large tracts of rapeseed are blooming, the grassland is vast, the territory is vast, and the air is fresh. Wu Bing and his companions are together, and the depression of the previous period has been swept away, and the mood has become much more cheerful.But Wu Bing knew that he didn't come here for fun, he had his own purpose.

As the road moved forward, the grassland gradually became barren, and the vehicle drove into the boundless Gobi desert.After walking for a day and a night on the flat Gobi Desert, the vehicle entered the Danxia landform. In the distance of the road now, there are various landforms with steep slopes made of red conglomerate, as if they are buildings deliberately built by nature. After millions of years of wind erosion, they look quite spectacular, but they also hide a weird. In the document, the place where Lao Song participated in the experiment was very close.The road ahead is straight forward, stretching to the end as far as the eye can see. From a distance, this straight road presents a slightly downward concave arc on the ground, which seems to be a downhill slope, and then goes up again.But the car kept driving flat.Wu Bing realized that his vision had produced an illusion.Just when Wu Bing was sure that he had read it wrong just now, he realized that the road ahead was going up suddenly, and it was really a big slope.Wu Bing saw Haizi shifting gears and knew that the uphill was real. But Haizi let out a "huh".Wu Bing asked, "What's wrong?" Haizi said: "It's obviously going uphill, so the speed should be slower now, but now, the speed of the car is actually faster." Wu Bing said: "How is it possible, this is obviously an uphill." Haizi carefully controlled the speed of the car and kept changing gears.The speed of the off-road vehicle was getting slower and slower, and finally almost stopped, just moving by inertia.Finally, Haizi switched to neutral gear. A strange thing happened, the vehicle without any driving force was slowly moving up the slope. This phenomenon that defies common sense happened.Wu Bing froze, watching the road carefully. "Haha." Haizi laughed happily from the side: "Don't look, I'm just kidding you, you haven't been here before, have you?" Wu Bing was very surprised by Haizi's attitude. "This is our illusion. It is the result of our eyes not being able to adapt to this terrain." Haizi explained, "It has something to do with the geographical environment of the Gobi. I have encountered it more than once." "Then what is the reason?" Wu Bing asked. "I don't know about that either." Haizi replied, "It's the first time I encountered this phenomenon, and I was as surprised as you. But many drivers have encountered this phenomenon in the Gobi, so it's not surprising. But I Every time I can’t help but try this wonderful feeling on this road. Illusion, this is a joke played by nature.” But Wu Bing was thinking about Lao Song's experience in his father's notes.Haizi shifted the gear to the normal driving position and drove through this area quickly. The scenery is so beautiful that everyone stopped to take pictures and walked around to play.The car drove at night, and it was still far away from the next destination.Everyone's original plan was to continue driving and reach the next town.But Haizi said, "Just set up a tent and camp by the road." There are only four people in two cars, and there is enough space to pile up the necessary equipment for wild survival.Drinking water and food are also absolutely plentiful.Everyone discussed it for a while. After all, the place where they are stationed is next to the road. Even if there is any accident, there will be no danger, so everyone agreed. It is summer now, and even if the temperature drops suddenly at night, they have prepared warm clothes in the car.The sleeping bag for the field at night is very thick, and there are down jackets to keep out the cold. Haizi and the others came prepared. After the tent was set up, the four of them found dry and cracked bushes nearby, lit a fire, made noodles, and ate with the vacuum-packed food they carried.Then, the four chatted around the campfire. Xiao Feng and Xiao Zou leaned together, listening to Hai Zi's nonsense.Haizi is not only a fan of outdoor activities, but also very interested in mysterious events in the world, and he keeps telling stories and anecdotes. Both Xiao Feng and Xiao Zou were fascinated by what they heard, but Wu Bing was not that interested. Compared with his father's experience, the mysterious events that Haizi said were not worth mentioning.Wu Bing was thinking about his father's notes, and Haizi noticed his absent-minded appearance. Haizi said to Wu Bing: "Xiao Wu, don't you feel curious about the unexplainable things in this world? For example, the long slope we met on the road today was obviously downhill, but it looked like it was uphill. .” "Are there no scientists to study that place?" Wu Bing asked. "How to study?" Haizi laughed, "That kind of phenomenon is not fixed in a certain place at all, and it is impossible to know when or where it will happen. But it is a little certain that this phenomenon will basically appear. In a desert area with vast land and few people." Xiao Feng said: "This phenomenon may also happen in the ocean." "Why do you say that?" Haizi asked. "Aren't there mirages on the sea?" Xiao Feng suddenly scratched his bald head, "Hehe, I was wrong, how can there be ups and downs on the ocean, the ocean is flat." Wu Bing suddenly realized something, and quickly asked, "Haiko, do you often encounter such a phenomenon?" "It's not often encountered." Haizi said, "I also came to Xinjiang in 2003, but I never encountered it that time. When I went to Tibet the year before last, I encountered it more than once. This phenomenon is very important to me. It’s not a new thing among the travel friends I know, we have talked about this kind of thing on the Internet, and many travel friends said that they have encountered it.” "But this phenomenon is rarely reported in the news." Wu Bing said, "This is not normal." "That's right, why didn't I think about this." Haizi said, "I guess everyone thinks it doesn't matter, get used to it, isn't this just a visual error? Science can easily explain it." "What if the occurrence of this phenomenon is not a human visual error?" Wu Bing said. Xiao Feng was curious about Wu Bing's statement: "Could it really be that the direction of gravity has changed?" "Your statement is very creative." Haizi said, "Yes, I really never thought that this is really a masterpiece of nature itself. Yes, people who have encountered this phenomenon seem to be after 2005 , before that, no one mentioned this matter." Wu Bing stopped talking for a while, and he gradually had a vague impression of things other than notes. When he was admitted to university, his always indifferent father gave him a pocket watch, which he knew to be an antique.Wu Bing thought it was a reward from his father at the time, but after reading his father's notes, he knew that this pocket watch was not ordinary.But this pocket watch is very different from the pocket watch described in my father's notes. That pocket watch is a machine that travels through space, while the one in my hand is very ordinary, an object to tell time. "What do you think of Lop Nur?" Wu Bing spoke. "It's not too far from Lop Nur. Could it be related to Lop Nur?" Haizi thought for a while and said, "It must be related. I heard that there are many mysterious incidents in Lop Nur. I also heard that the country sent many troops to conduct secret experiments in Lop Nur." "No way." Xiao Zou said, "Could it be that we are very close to Lop Nur now? If something mysterious happened, wouldn't we be in danger? Oh, what if aliens take us away? ?” "Don't worry, I'm here." Xiao Feng hugged Xiao Zou, "If you really meet aliens, your life will not be in vain." Wu Bing said to Haizi: "Do you know about the incident in the Bermuda Triangle in the Atlantic Ocean?" "Why don't you understand?" Haizi immediately went on and on as soon as this topic was mentioned, listing all the bizarre disappearances that happened in Bermuda. "I'm very sure." Haizi added, "Lop Nur and Bermuda must both be very mysterious places on the earth. They are both sea eyes." "You also know Haiyan!" Wu Bing said loudly, "You know so much." "Of course." Haizi said proudly, "I usually like to pay attention to the mysterious events in the world. I have also been to Shennongjia many times, just to see if there are any savages." "Then are you interested in the various bizarre events in Lop Nur?" Wu Bing continued to ask. "Of course." Haizi said excitedly, "The most mysterious incident in Lop Nur is that two well-known people have accidents in the Lop Nur area. One is Peng Jiamu, who disappeared mysteriously; the other is Yu Chunshun, who died in Lop Nur." Wu Bing was shocked. Haizi continued: "The incidents of these two people are very mysterious. In the second year after Peng Jiamu disappeared, someone saw Peng Jiamu in the United States. Some people speculated that he had defected to a foreign country. Yu Chunshun's death was also very strange. When he became famous For a long time, he is the idol of our outdoor enthusiasts. But he insisted on walking through Lop Nur regardless of the danger. At that time, many media reported that he was puzzled by his behavior of walking through Lop Nur with only a small amount of supplies. This challenge has not yet been completed. At the beginning, many people predicted that he would be in danger." "If that's the case, why didn't relevant departments stop him?" Xiao Feng asked. "This is the problem." Haizi said mysteriously, "We all know that with his supplies and mobility, it is a dead end to go through Lop Nur, but all the public opinion at that time only emphasized the danger of this challenge, but there was nothing to stop it." It’s like acting in a play, everything proceeded step by step, and finally Yu Chunshun died in Lop Nur. He was found the day after his disappearance, and there was no suspense at all.” "There is no suspense, it is the biggest suspense." Wu Bing said, "This incident is logically normal. From his entry into Lop Nur to his disappearance and death, every step was within everyone's expectations. As a Emergencies happened too normally, there was no accident at all." "When Yu Chunshun crossed Lop Nur, he had a large entourage, including TV reporters and some professionals." Haizi said, "He died in full view of everyone." "In what year did Yu Chunshun die in Lop Nur?" "In 1996." Haizi said, "What's even more strange is that after his death, someone dug his tomb. He is not some ancient prince or nobleman. Do you think those grave robbers are stupid?" "Can you stop talking about it?" Xiao Zou felt scared, and now several people are in the vast desert like Yu Chunshun back then.Although it is very close to the road, this breathtaking sense of fear has eroded into everyone's heart. "Forget it." Xiao Feng smoothed things over and said, "Let's talk about other places. We keep talking about the desert, Lop Nur, and so on. It's frightening. Didn't we talk about Bermuda just now? Let's continue talking about Bermuda." Haizi laughed and said, "Okay, let's talk about the story of the Bermuda Triangle. In fact, I think this place is also evil. So many countries have invested a lot of people and equipment, but there is no reason. There is no reasonable explanation now. I guess we also went to China to join in the fun, and probably didn’t find any results.” "Our country is far away from the Atlantic Ocean." Xiao Feng said, "Haven't you heard that our country has investigated Bermuda?" "Of course this will not be made public." Haizi said confidently, "But I know that our country actually sent a large scientific research ship to approach that area a few years ago." "Where does this start?" Xiao Feng asked curiously. "In that year, our country sent a scientific research ship to enter the Atlantic Ocean through the Panama Canal. The purpose at that time was to carry out scientific research in the Atlantic Ocean. As a lover of mysterious events, it is difficult for me not to think that this scientific research ship The ship is connected to Bermuda, which is too close geographically." "Which ship is that?" Wu Bing asked suddenly. "Ocean One." "which year?" "2005." Wu Bing's mind flashed like lightning.Linking these events together, a general outline formed in his mind. 2005 was the year my father disappeared.Sure enough, my father returned to Yihai again, and this time the operation was completely hosted by China. Wu Bing couldn't help being excited, and took a branch to fiddle with the bonfire. "Look!" Xiao Zou suddenly pointed to the bonfire.The shape of the flame has changed, it is no longer normal, it is no longer burning from the bottom up, but it has become a spherical shape, without flames fluttering.This situation is very strange, this is not the shape of flames on earth. "What happened?" Xiao Feng asked. Haizi looked at it for a while, then said cautiously: "The change in the shape of the flame is not due to the change of the flame itself, but the abnormal convection of the hot air. The change in the convection of the air must be caused by external factors." "This factor will also make the car move forward without any power when going uphill." Wu Bing said, "There is an external force that affects the gravity field in this area." "How could this happen!" Xiao Zou shouted anxiously, "Why is this place so weird?" "Xiao Wu," Haizi said to Wu Bing, "do you know something?" Wu Bing didn't speak, and pointed around with his fingers. Now the gravel on the surrounding ground seemed to be moving slowly. After a while, some stones slowly floated up, and when they floated to more than ten centimeters above the ground, they slowly descended and landed firmly on the ground.Even two cars floated up and down again. During this process, the four of them subconsciously grasped the fixed objects on the ground, for fear that they would float up like these stones.All four were in shock, but fortunately this process only lasted a few seconds. Haizi stood up and kicked the bonfire with his feet. Xiao Feng and Xiao Zou quickly put out the bonfire with the gravel from the ground. "Let's go." Haizi said, "It's better for us to leave here." Wu Bing said, "Can you do me a favor and leave the tent and supplies behind." "Aren't you leaving?" Haizi said. "I'm not leaving." Wu Bing said, "I'm here for this." "Are you crazy?" Xiao Zou said, "Aren't you afraid?" "Not afraid." Wu Bing said, "I'm really not afraid." No matter how the three of Ren Haizi persuaded, Wu Bing insisted on staying. Finally, Haizi said to Wu Bing: "Then don't run around, wait until we call someone back to find you." "I will not be in danger." Wu Bing comforted them, "There is a reason for what happened just now." Wu Bing took out the pocket watch, spread it flat in the palm of his hand, and then moved his palm away.The pocket watch was steadily suspended in the air. "You mean, what happened just now has something to do with this watch?" Haizi said. Wu Bing said: "I'm sorry, I lied to you, I'm not a tourist, I came here for a purpose." "What purpose?" "I just want to know what is the connection between this pocket watch and this desert." Haizi looked at Wu Bing for a while and said, "Brother, it's not that we want to abandon you, you insist on staying..." "I'm really going to be fine." Wu Bing said, "Don't say that." Hai Zi, Xiao Feng, and Xiao Zou got into the car, Hai Zi poked his head out of the car window and said to Wu Bing, "Brother, although I don't know what your purpose is, I advise you to be careful. I will send the couple to the town ahead, and I will bring someone back to find you." Wu Bing waved to Haizi, then walked towards the tent. Wu Bing turned into the tent, lay down, and took a pocket watch in his hand to observe carefully.It seems that the contents of the father's notes are not groundless, and the pocket watch does have some special functions.What is the intention of father to keep this thing for himself?Judging from the description in the notes, this pocket watch has no radiation, and no father would leave such a dangerous thing to his son. The pocket watch can be controlled, but I don't know it yet. Wu Bing thought about any details related to the pocket watch in the notes.Yes, there is a person, that old Song whose whereabouts are unknown, who is the one who knows pocket watches best among all the people in the notes.He could somehow control the pocket watch. Wu Bing could no longer speculate on the details, so he lazily lay down in his sleeping bag to rest.Now I can't walk aimlessly in the desert, it's too dangerous.With a pocket watch in your hand, you will definitely find more things. Wu Bing closed his eyes and slowly fell asleep.I don't know how long I slept in a chaotic state.In his sleep, Wu Bing became more and more restless, and finally he woke up.When he woke up, Wu Bing knew exactly why he woke up from his sleep. It was bright all around. Wu Bing looked at the time, it was three o'clock in the morning Beijing time.It should be night now.Wu Bing knew that something happened here, and he was right. With a pocket watch in his hand, the probability of seeing the secrets in the desert would increase. Wu Bing walked out of the tent and saw a white light all around, but this bright area has a range, that is, a radius of several kilometers.The range of light is gradually shrinking.As the area of ​​light gathers, the visibility becomes higher and higher, and even fine grains of sand on the ground can be seen clearly. At the end, the light shrank into a beam of light, completely focused on Wu Bing.The vast desert is like a huge stage, and the beam of light is a spotlight, closely following Wu Bing. When Wu Bing saw this beam of light, it had shrunk to the size of a wine glass, and it was shining on his chest.Wu Bing realized something, put his hand into the inner purse on his chest, and took out the pocket watch. Sure enough, the beam of light chased and shone on the pocket watch. What does this mean, Wu Bing couldn't figure it out for the time being. Now the surroundings are surrounded by a silent and endless night. There are few stars in the sky, and the air in the desert is dry. Under the illumination of the stars, things can still be seen tens of meters away. That ray of light disappeared.Wu Bing looked at the sky in the direction of the light beam just now, but he couldn't see anything.Just when Wu Bing was at a loss, he saw a black shadow in front of him, which suddenly appeared for no reason.The black shadow was twenty meters away from him. This is a huge pillar, a square building, standing in the desert. Wu Bing restrained his inner fear and walked towards the cuboid building.This building is ten meters long and wide, thirty meters high, very regular. Wu Bing walked halfway and stopped suddenly.Because, he saw that this cuboid building is not a single building, but a building complex.Wu Bing walked to a slightly higher sand pile and observed carefully. There were sixteen in total, arranged in a square with each other, four horizontally, vertically and horizontally. The neatly arranged sixteen column-shaped buildings stand so strangely in the boundless desert. Wu Bing was frightened by the strange scene in front of him.Although he has always maintained a strong curiosity about his father's incident, he still couldn't suppress the panic in his heart when he encountered such a scene. Now Wu Bing understands that his father and himself are not the same person at all.My father is a soldier with a super strong psychological quality, but I am nothing. Wu Bing didn't have such firm determination now, he thought of retreating.He turned around and ran back the way he came.After running for a while, he suddenly realized that he couldn't return to the original place at all.He couldn't see the tent at all, and the road across the desert. Wu Bing found helplessly that he was already in the middle of the deserted desert.He walked indiscriminately in the desert for an hour, and he still hadn't determined the direction. Suddenly Wu Bing found several rows of footprints on the ground in front of him. He squatted down and walked slowly, and found that these footprints stretched all the way to the front.After walking for a few minutes, Wu Bing suddenly realized that the footprints belonged to him.What made him even more alarmed was that there were footprints on the ground one meter away from his body. be lost. Wu Bing tried his best to calm himself down and inspected carefully, but the consequences of the inspection made him despair.The ground is full of footprints, densely intertwined - these are his own footprints. Wu Bing only now realized that he was not psychologically prepared to face emergencies at all.When there were no strange events, I felt that I could face anything, but when I did face it, I couldn't maintain my composure.Wu Bing took out his pocket watch, his body trembling.Yes, it was this mysterious thing that brought me into this weird place without any preparation. Wu Bing took a few more random steps and found that the footprints became more dense.What is going on here, I have never heard of getting lost like this.Wu Bing was thinking about the reason why some books describe getting lost in the desert. It is because in the wilderness, there are no obvious landmarks, and people walk in a straight line ahead, thinking that they can get rid of the lost situation by heading in one direction.But the fact is that the two legs of the human body are not the same length, and there will be a slight difference. In a living environment with a reference object, when the human body walks, it subconsciously corrects this subtle difference. However, if in the vast desert, people walk for a long distance without any reference to correct the direction, the consequences of this difference will appear over time, and the result is that lost people circle around a central point.Similarly, a sailor who is lost on the ocean has a greater difference in strength between the two arms that row. But the current situation is obviously different from the common sense that Wu Bing understands.Now there are footprints everywhere on the ground, which means that he thinks he is walking in one direction, but in fact, he is walking in all directions, and within a small range. There is a possibility that the space is expanding.There is a mysterious external force that changes the dimension of space. (When Wu Bing talked about this, he gave me an analogy to describe the possibility of space expansion. Comparing his footprints to a straight line drawn on a piece of paper, imagine that there is an unknown external force that draws The two-dimensional paper is randomly crumpled, which expands the dimension to a high dimension. So the straight lines on the paper will become chaotic and no longer maintain a single direction.) Wu Bing saw his own footprints, facing in all directions, and all around his body.At that time, he didn't realize what dimension expansion was, so this phenomenon made him very frightened. Although Wu Bing knew that running in the desert was futile, he couldn't help running wildly. Then Wu Bing found a figure not far in front of him, about ten meters away from him, because Wu Bing's line of sight was just within ten meters.That figure happened to be within his line of sight, but he couldn't see it very clearly.Wu Bing suddenly found someone appeared, and he didn't know whether to be afraid or relieved.In a panic, he changed direction and ran to the right, but he found that the figure also ran to the front of the right more than ten meters away.The light in this direction was slightly stronger, and Wu Bing saw that figure, with his back facing him, swinging his hands, running desperately forward. Is there any danger that makes him so afraid? Wu Bing stopped quickly, turned his head and looked back, but found a scene that made him collapse. It was still more than ten meters away from him, and a figure was standing there in a daze... His head was twisting backwards! Wu Bing knew what was going on, he ran in any direction randomly, and he could see a figure in front of him.That figure is not someone else, but himself! In a space, you can see your own complete image without relying on a mirror. This phenomenon indicates that the space is distorted or compressed.Wu Bing found that with the passage of time, his figure became more and more clear, and he was getting closer and closer. Half an hour later, countless overlapping figures appeared within a few meters. Those are not human figures, but real human bodies, and they are themselves! Wu Bing makes any kind of movement at will, and the surrounding human bodies will make exactly the same movement, and there is no time delay. Wu Bing tried to calm himself down.Each figure is actually himself, but the space is severely distorted, causing the light to circle back in a small space.The figures Wu Bing saw were all himself.There is only one person, but in a small and independent space. (Wu Bing is here, and gave me a popular science about the possibility of the opposite. The man from Chu State is going to the north, but he is walking towards the south. As he said, if his equipment and supplies are sufficient, one day he will To reach the destination, he will pass through the equator, pass through the South Pole, and then on the other side of the earth, cross the equator, circumvent the North Pole, and finally reach the north of Chu State. If he is willing, he can return to the starting point without going back. The people of Chu used the line of light to expand the earth into the space of the universe. Yes, the light in the universe, if time is long enough, will return to the original point one day. But because the universe is too big, it is too big to imagine , therefore, no light can go back. But if the space of the universe is reduced, and then reduced, for example, to a range of more than ten meters, in this case, the light that radiates around will quickly return to the original point This is why Wu Bing can see himself, and there are countless. Where he is, the space has undergone a huge change, and he is isolated from the universe.) When Wu Bing came to the desert and approached Lop Nur consciously, he was indeed well prepared psychologically.But now he knew that mental preparation alone was not enough. When exposed to some mysterious events in the world, it was impossible to deal with them by relying on one's own strength alone.In fact, when I came to the desert, the only thing I was sure of was the pocket watch on my body.From his father's notes, Wu Bing concluded that events such as Lop Nur must be inextricably linked to the pocket watch.That pocket watch, as a souvenir left by his father, has been worn for several years, and nothing abnormal has been found.现在到了沙漠的未知地带，这块怀表突然发力，展现出来的功能，让他根本无法接受。 四周的人影距离吴兵自身越来越近，吴兵在心里想着，如果这些影子和自己完全重叠，会发生什么事情？ 吴兵难免开始考虑这跟自己安危相关的问题。 突然一个尖锐的声音灌入吴兵的耳膜，非常的刺耳。这个声音，类似于收音机在搜索频道的时候，突然发出的磁噪声，也和开会的时候，工作人员调整麦克风时发生的啸叫一样，听着让人无比难受。 吴兵的眼前突然一片光明，然后四周的人影全部消失。 头顶传来巨大的轰鸣声和扩音器发出的警告：“屏蔽已解除，发现不明人员。重复，屏蔽已解除，发现不明人员。” 吴兵茫然地看着上空，上面是一架直升机，在距离自己几十米的空中盘旋，一个探照灯，照射在自己身上。 一群军人正在吴兵的四周，用枪指着他，并慢慢移动。 吴兵喊起来：“我是个游客，我是个游客。” 军人都逼近了吴兵，枪口已经顶到他身体上。吴兵不敢妄动，嘴里喊着：“我迷路了，我是个游客。” 把吴兵围着的军人都不说话，谨慎地观察他。隔了一会儿，一个军人喊道：“把手放在头顶。” 吴兵照做了。 然后两个穿着白色生化服的人靠近吴兵，用某种仪器在他的身体上下探测。 “没有辐射。”穿着白色生化服的人员把防护面具摘下，对旁人说道，“没有放射性物质。” 军人退开了一些，穿白色生化服的人员对吴兵说道：“你是什么人？从哪里来？” “我是个游客，我迷路了。”吴兵回答。 “你是什么人？从哪里来？”穿着生化服的工作人员加重语气说道，“没有哪个游客能徒步走到这里来。” “我说了，我迷路了。”吴兵辩解道。 穿着生化服的工作人员，一把把吴兵抓住：“你被捕了。” 吴兵的胳膊被军人扣到背后，肩膀给狠狠按住。他跟着军人在沙漠上行走。吴兵看到，这是一支小分队，附近还停着军用卡车，只是这一军用卡车有点特别，不是橡胶轮胎，而是履带，应该是装甲车改装的。 吴兵以为自己要被带到军用卡车里，不过他想错了，他被军人带到直升机上。 直升机马上起飞，吴兵又看到了那些长方体的柱子。随着直升机向上提升，那十六根柱子都进入吴兵的眼底。从上方来看，十六根柱子成了一副几何图形，摆在沙漠上。 忽然天空划过一道明亮的光线，光线保持了几秒钟，把这一片沙漠全部照亮。 吴兵看到了地面上的景象，不禁惊愕万分！ 广阔的沙漠上，到处都是规则的几何图形，和父亲笔记里描写的一致——正方形、三角形、五角星形、菱形、矩形…… 每一个几何图形，都是由方正的建筑物排列构成，而自己刚才看到的十六根正方体柱子，只是其中的一个图形而已。 吴兵惊讶得嘴巴都合不拢，向坐在旁边的人看去，飞机上还坐了三个人，都面无表情。其中一个拿起步话机，沉稳地说道：“第四分队又发现了一个传输体，坐标是经度91°23′59″、纬度40°27′8″。” “传输体！”吴兵说道，“什么传输体？”没人回答他，直升机继续飞行。 直升机快速飞过这片区域，吴兵看到前方的地面有很多灯光。这些灯光很奇怪，长长一条，集中在一条长形线上。 直升机向着灯光降落，现在吴兵才看清楚了，所有的灯光都在一道狭长的裂谷里面。这里是一片平地，表面平整，可是中间有一道裂谷，把地面分割开来。这是大自然的作品，不是人为的。 这道裂谷很深，有几十米宽，发光的指示灯就挂在裂谷两侧的岩壁上，裂谷底部有一大片建筑——军营。军营顺着裂谷的方向向着深处排列，其中还有块空地，就是直升机的停机坪。 直升机降落在停机坪上，吴兵被带下来，向着军营走去。吴兵看到军营附近有军人在站岗，有几支保持队形的军人从裂谷内侧快速地跑出来，向外侧跑去。他们都荷枪实弹。还有几辆坦克，也在向外开动。裂谷里的喇叭在广播，不停地发号施令：“XX编队向XX方位行动……” 气氛非常紧张。 毫无疑问，这是个隐藏在沙漠裂谷里的军事基地。 吴兵的目的达到了，他真的介入到了某军区在沙漠里的基地。 吴兵被带到一个房间，这房间不像其他军营一样是用砖砌的平房，而是在岩壁里挖出的一个巨大窑洞。 窑洞里面到处是穿着军装的工作人员，都在设备仪器前紧张地工作——就和父亲笔记里所说的海军军事基地差不多。 吴兵被带到一个高级军官面前。根据肩章，吴兵能确定他是个大校级别的军官。 押送吴兵的军人向大校敬了一个礼，大校点头，那几个军人走了。 大校没有让吴兵坐下的意思，两个人站着，相互打量。 “你是不是姓吴？”大校问道。 “你知道我的名字？”吴兵诧异地说道。 “你在东北的那个潜艇基地时，就已经被我们挂上号了。”大校说道，“你到甘肃、青海，我都知道。我只是没料到，你真的能进入这里。” “你是谁？”吴兵问道，“你是不是认得我父亲？” “如果不是因为你父亲，你在东北就被扣留了。”大校说道，“我们知道你是在调查你父亲的消息。” “我父亲是不是又去了那个地方——异海？” “你既然已经知道，为什么还要问。” “我想我有权利确定我父亲的下落。” 大校沉默片刻，说道：“你现在已经知道了。我给你肯定的答复，你父亲为了国家利益，又一次进入异海。你的父亲没有恪守原则，他已经把任务的部分信息透露出来，并且私自藏留了一块怀表给你。” “进入异海的行动中，你是我父亲的上司，你姓王？” “不是，我姓张，我没见过你父亲。”张大校说道，“我的工作和你的父亲有联系，但不是同一个行动部门。” “你怎么知道我父亲给了我怀表？”吴兵说道。 “没有怀表，你根本不可能进入到罗布泊的腹地。”张大校说道，“空间位移，只有怀表能做到，你忘了吗，你自己都没意识到你在瞬间位移了几百公里。还有你无法控制怀表的功能，怀表在自行运转，提升了你所在空间的维度。” “这怀表在我身上很久了，为什么它突然在这里启动？” “这不就是你靠近罗布泊的目的吗？”张大校说道，“怀表的功能启动，当然是有原因的。” "what reason?" “你到底对怀表和你父亲的行动了解多少？”张大校注视着吴兵，“你难道不知道，怀表就是连接平行空间的仪器？” “那些在沙漠里的奇怪柱形建筑，和平行空间有关？”吴兵懂了。 “这就是我们军队驻扎在此的原因。”张大校说道，“形势已经不由我们控制，事件升级了，很严重。那些奇怪的建筑，从半年前开始，就无端地在沙漠里冒起，我们不知道它们的来源。” “你和我父亲到底是什么部门？” “我和你父亲一样，都隶属于执行有关平行空间任务的部队，只是我从事的是理论研究。” “张校，我父亲执行的任务，你有更多的信息吗？” 张大校严肃地说道：“我说过，现在事态的发展，已经脱离了我们的控制，你父亲行动的级别已经下降，现在我们面临最大的困境，不是我们要进入异海，而是那些传输体。” “什么传输体？”吴兵在直升机上已经听过这个名词。 “他们来了！”张大校眉头深皱，慢慢说道。 “谁来了？”吴兵看到张大校的神色紧张，知道他说的不假，事件在升级。 张大校对吴兵说道：“跟我来。” 吴兵随着张大校走过大厅，进入一间内室，室内放了一张巨大的办公桌，上面堆满了文件和档案。房间角落里放了一张行军床，看来张大校吃住都在这个办公场所。 张大校指着墙上，那是一张船舶的照片：“这艘科考船对我国有非比寻常的意义。” 吴兵想到了海子所说的“大洋一号”，对张大校说道：“我国第一次完全独立进入异海的行动。” “也不完全是这样，我国从20世纪80年代就已经和美国联合研究平行空间的实验课题。”张大校说道，“是的，两次实验，你的父亲都参加了。” 吴兵现在已经得到了父亲下落的确定回复，心里不知是什么滋味，虽然内心早已对这个结果有所预料，但真的确定了，仍旧感到失落，父亲为了这项实验两次抛弃了自己。 “谈谈你父亲吧。”张大校说道，“其实我们已经打算把你叫来……你父亲对你说过什么？” “他什么都没对我说过。” “你在撒谎。”张大校说道，“你对异海相关的事情了解得太多，并且你父亲又参加了异海的实验，如果你是我，你会相信吗？” 吴兵还在犹豫，不知道该不该把父亲留下笔记的事情说出来。 “我们需要你吐露这些内容。”张大校说道，“你父亲当年回来后，说过什么，做过什么，到现在都是绝密档案，我一直无从得知。但是自从我到这个基地指挥这里的行动之后，已经得到你父亲当年提议的一些内容。” “我父亲提议什么？” “他提议我国停止经济上的开放，阻止全球一体化的进程。”张大校说道，“可是对外开放已经是我国经济发展既定的大方向，他的提议当然不能被采纳。” “他的目的是不想让国外的资本进入国家。”吴兵说道，“异海行动有个关键内容，跟经济有关。” “所以他主动要求退役。” “他回到家里，一直都很少说话。”吴兵说道，“他也许在等待下一次机会。他知道国家会安排他再一次进入异海。” “你没有必要再隐瞒。”张大校说道，“这个秘密已经在世界各地显现出来。很多相关的谣传，在世界上到处流传。” 张大校把一摞档案扔到吴兵身前的桌面上：“你自己看看。” 吴兵拿起最上方的一个档案，这个档案上列举的是全国各地这几年不同地区煤矿地下燃烧的记录，煤层在地下燃烧，严重的，已经烧到地面上。 “这是地火。”吴兵说道，“很常见的煤矿灾难，听说新疆的某个地区，地面下的煤矿已经燃烧了上百年。” 张大校面无表情，示意吴兵看下一个档案。 下面的档案就不是来自于国内，而是发生在其他国家的事件：美国的军舰长期在印度洋西部执行任务，发现了空间紊乱；有不明的物体出现，无法用现在的科学解释。 吴兵继续看下去，美国的一家通讯公司发生了奇怪的故障，导致所有用户在某一个时间，都同时接到一个电话，但是里面的声音，谁也听不懂。 南美洲发生无数起地陷事件，但是只有一起被报道，因为那起地陷发生在城市中心，无法掩盖。 非洲某国热带雨林里的树木突然大面积枯萎，以至于居住在里面的原始居民，不得不离开栖息之地。根据那些原住民的诉说，世界已经被诅咒了。当调查人员进入那个森林调查的时候，发现枯萎的树木又焕发了生机。不过，十几个队员，只有一个人回来，其他的队员全部失踪，而幸存者现在也已经精神崩溃。 吴兵的手在发抖。这些事情，有的看起来平淡无奇，有的又怪异非常，可是这些事件有个共同点，就是都能和父亲笔记里提到的某些内容产生联系。 “你父亲不是唯一掌握秘密的人。”张大校说道。 吴兵知道事件在升级，但是没想到已经到了如此境地。他在这一刻，已经隐隐知道，事件对地球的影响，已经非同寻常。 “先谈谈地陷事件。”张大校说道，“我的部下已经对我报告，他们在发现你的时候，你已经处在一个封闭的高维度空间里。” “这个和地陷有什么关系？” “高维度空间的物质进入低维度空间，可以进入低维度的任何方位——包括低维度空间的内部。” 吴兵一言不发，是的，父亲的笔记里提过这点。 “地下煤矿燃烧，一开始就被注意到。我国有专门针对地火的科学研究队伍，并且我们的技术非常成熟。”张大校说道，“我们能用在煤层上采取灌浆隔断的技术，阻止地火的蔓延。” 吴兵第一次听说中国还有这个科研部门。 “可是那些地下火焰，能够从我们意想不到的煤层延伸面通过隔断。”张大校说道，“火焰甚至能预测到我们采取的隔断方案，它们有思考能力。并且有矿工看到冒出地面的火焰呈现几何图形，比如菱形、正方形，就跟我们在沙漠里看到的那些建筑物的形状一样。” 吴兵心里想着自己刚才在沙漠里看到的那些规则的柱状建筑物。 “我国罗布泊的沙漠地带，也出现大量不明建筑，形状规则对称，但不是我国任何单位和个人所为。建筑持续存在六十一小时后，就莫名消失，不留痕迹。但是附近的磁场一直保持异常状态。我们已经发现有动植物在上述地带发生突变，我说的动植物也包括人类。” “那些神秘建筑，和我被你们发现地点附近的建筑物是类似的吗？”吴兵已经在颤抖。 “我就是受国家派遣，专门调查这个神秘建筑的总指挥。”张大校说道。 “我们现在就在罗布泊！”吴兵的心理防线完全崩溃。 “我们现在就在罗布泊的中心地带。”张大校说道，“我国很久前就在这里建立了基地，不过我想你早就知道。” “我父亲的确给我留下了一些信息。”吴兵妥协了，“不过他从没说过，我是在他离开后，发现他留下的笔记。” “笔记呢？”张大校焦急地说道，“这么重要的东西，怎么没交给国家。” “笔记我藏了起来。” “你能说一些关键性的信息吗，笔记上的？” “我父亲提到过这些神秘的现象。它们是某种文明——寄生文明，它们来自于平行空间。” “这些我都知道。”张大校说道，“我就是研究这个的专家。还有什么重要的内容？” “有一个设想，我父亲提到过一个德国人，他说我们人类，被那种寄生文明控制后才产生了意识——智能意识。” “这个我真的没听说过。” “他还提到过，那种来自于平行空间的文明有很多种生存的方式，比如能以离子态存在，或者是植物，或者是种群共生体。” “这就解释了现在沙漠上的那种规则建筑。”张大校说道，“如你所说，那我们人类也是这种文明的存在方式之一。可是它们为什么现在要进入地球，而且充满敌意？” “因为，我们人类也许已经脱离了它们的控制。”吴兵说道，“不仅如此，我们还要消灭它们，走自己的道路。” “我们有什么办法消灭它们？”张大校说道，“它们的存在形式多样。” “它们要控制我们，一定要寄生到我们的身体上。”吴兵说道，“我父亲在笔记里提过，它们是寄生文明，它们习惯和侵入空间的生物融合，保持对环境的适应。” “它们并不是要从种群数量上对付我们。”张大校说道，“只需要附在我们身上就行了？” “之前它们就是这么做的。”吴兵说道，“我推测，它们又会使用这种办法。” “如果你说的是真的。那它们现在一定在行动了，沙漠里已经出现了异于常人的人类个体。”张大校说道。 吴兵忽然意识到，张大校其实知道很多事情，因为他对自己的思路很理解，交流根本没有滞涩。 吴兵不再隐瞒了，对张大校说道：“它们现在再次进入地球，是有人在暗中帮助它们。地球上有股庞大的势力，仍旧没有摆脱它们的控制。” “如果它们只能以寄生的方式入侵地球。”张大校说道，“那事情就相对好办，它们会改变寄生体的基因，那我们只要针对基因，研制出生物武器就足够了。” “你为什么这么肯定？”吴兵说道。 “人类基因图谱已经破译。”张大校说道，“你忘了，我国也有参与。” “我父亲的笔记里说过，德国人有针对这种寄生文明的撒手锏——某种生物武器，秘密隐藏在南极。” 张大校说道：“继续说下去。” “那种生物武器，可以在人类的个体里疯狂传染。没有被寄生的个体会抵抗这种病毒，被寄生的人类就会被淘汰。” “原来是这样。”张大校说道，“原来德国早就研究出了应对的办法——既然不能消灭这些异类，就从人类自身个体上辨别被寄生者，再针对性地消灭。” “应该是这样，并且世界上还有部分人类没有摆脱寄生，并且他们很强大，渗透到各个领域。” “是的，这场战争，并不是仅仅针对这些神秘事件这么简单，我们将要面对的敌人，就是我们自己——那些迎接寄生文明的力量，才是我们最大的敌人。” 吴兵没有什么信息可以透露了，于是站在原地，玩弄手上的怀表。 “我对你说了这么多，是希望你能提供相关的线索。”张大校说道，“毕竟你是吴XX的儿子。但是你不是军人，我不建议你参与进来。不过这个由你自己决定，无论你作出什么选择，我都会作出相应的安排。” 吴兵知道张大校说这句话的意思，如果真的参与进来，自己的下半生将完全改变，而且，有可能会见到自己的父亲。 吴兵将怀表递给张大校：“我想我是用不着这个了。” 张大校没有接过来，而是对吴兵说道：“我给你时间考虑，你随时都可以联系我，这个很简单。等你把怀表交给我的时候，再告诉我你的选择。” 吴兵答应了张大校的提议，点头说道：“好的，我想想。” “那我先送你回去。”张大校说道。 “张大校，如果我把关于异海的内容发布到网上，是不是会对我们现在的任务产生影响？”吴兵问道。 “没什么，如果这些真的发生了，人类的处境已经无法收拾。如果我们赢了，这些信息，有谁会相信呢。”张大校拍了拍吴兵的肩膀，“你考虑好自己的选择吧。” 吴兵又被几个军人带到直升机上，直升机在空中飞行。太阳已经从东方升起，一缕淡淡的阳光照射在地面上。 吴兵看到一些军人，正在地面上围剿一些快速移动的动物。那些奇怪的建筑物，矗立在沙漠里，看起来让人遍体生寒。 吴兵告诉飞行员自己进入沙漠的大体方位，直升机把他送到那条公路旁边。 这条路，有很多车辆往来，吴兵可以寻求过往车辆的帮助。 直升机飞走后，吴兵独自一人向着西方行走。飞行员告诉他，前方几十公里，就有市镇。 不停地有车辆从吴兵身边开过，有几辆车停下来，询问吴兵需不需要搭载一程，吴兵拒绝了，他想自己多待一会儿，好好想想自己今后的人生道路。 如果人类不会在短期内失败，那场战争，也许会持续很久。这本来就是一场延续了千百万年的战争，从没中断过。 吴兵走到中午，正饥渴难耐，打算拦一辆车的时候，前方一辆探路者远远地开过来，开到他的面前急停。 海子从车上跳下来，对着吴兵说道：“兄弟，你不在帐篷里，我还担心你在沙漠里失踪了。” “没有，我只是随便转转。” “你肯定去了什么地方。”海子说道。 吴兵没有回答。 “不管这些了。”海子说道，“你没事就行，你打算接下来去什么地方？” “当然是跟着你们去新疆旅游。”吴兵说道，“你们不会扔下我吧？” “怎么可能，你一定有很多事情还没有说，正好有时间告诉我们。” “你喜欢听故事吗？” “不管是不是故事，我都愿意听。” 吴兵跟我说的所有事情，到此结束。 我知道大家对这个结局一定不会满意，但是我只能如实把这些东西写出来。我很想把吴兵在沙漠里的经历加以夸张，构思一些匪夷所思的历险情节。可是这样做的话，总觉得对吴兵不太公平。我左右衡量，还是就以吴兵告诉我的那些事情作为故事的结尾，勉强算个不是交代的交代。 哦，还有件事情要告诉大家，我上个星期收到了一个快递，打开包裹后，我看到了一支钢笔，通体灰白色。我正拿着钢笔入神，快递人员提醒我，里面有张纸片掉出来了。 我连忙弯腰捡起，看到纸片上写着一句话：“蛇哥，真的开始了……” (End of the book)
