Thousand Lantern Night

The huge black shadow in front is not far from us, because the reflection range of the ghost seal in the deep black fog is very limited, but we walked there for a long time, and I don't know why.It wasn't until we got really close that the thing was much bigger than what we'd seen.And the fog around it dissipated, and the sight became clearer.

The "ground" close to our feet was covered with white smoke, like fog but not fog, water and not water. We seemed to be stepping on the clouds, and we completely lost our judgment on the reality of the soles of our feet.And because there is a warm air flowing around the ankles when walking, the lower body seems to be wrapped in the water and wading around, and from time to time I can hear the sound of splashing.This scene is very similar to the fairyland state shown in the film and television.

But although the soles of the feet are unclear, they are very smooth when you step on them.Moreover, it seems that this place can still rebound strength, and I can feel the upward support on the soles of the feet, which makes people feel refreshed.

As for the appearance of that thing, how would you describe it?Its shape is like a small hill with a hollow in the middle. The chassis is not very open, which leads to a high and steep three-dimensional surface, so that it is hard to see whether it hangs from the top or grows from the ground.Of course, it is also possible that it is suspended in the air, neither reaching the top nor touching the ground.

If it is seen as hanging, then this thing is like an extremely huge pouch; if it is seen as growing from the ground, it is like a flower bud that soars to the sky.The part we can see is about as high as a three-story building, and it can be roughly seen from the place where the light shines. It is an extremely black and uneven texture that looks like black iron and inkstone. It is made of the same material as Wang Zanghai's inner coffin— — Meteorite.

The green light of the ghost seal shone on the surface of the thing, reflecting a dark metallic luster.The jade-like iron surface is very rough, but there are countless protruding lines intertwined and entangled, just like the blood vessels and meridians in the human body.And those tubular protrusions seem to be alive, twitching at a very slow speed, like a huge heart that is contracting.

The fat man said: "What is this thing? Oh my naivety, you have learned something about the force of gravity. Could this be the center of the earth?"

I opened my mouth, Fatty is always in a state of confusion where the wise and the mentally retarded are intertwined, which makes people very helpless. "Impossible. The core of the earth refers to the inner core of the earth. If the inner core of the earth is only this deep, then the gravity of the earth must be very buoyant. It will definitely not be able to hold your weight. You can't go to the sky?"

Xiaohua said: "This is the birth of the earth. There is such a thing in this place, which shows that this is a place where the aura of heaven and earth is fully concentrated." He touched the fetal sac of the meteorite with his hand, thoughtfully : "I just don't know if the fetal spirit inside is still there. If it is—"

The fat man said, "What if I'm here? Can I dig it out and eat it?"

Originally, when the fat man spoke, Qin Ai had to say something, but at this time he didn't speak.Not only Qin Ai didn't speak, but everyone else didn't speak.Xiaohua looked at Zhang Yinzhen halfway through her speech, and there seemed to be some scruples in her eyes.And Zhang Yinzhen also looked at Xiaohua and the fetal sac, his face was a bit cold, and the sharpness in his eyes flashed past.

In such a scene, the confrontation suddenly arises, the fat man sees that no one is answering, he looks at both sides, and he can see the clue.He immediately stood by Xiaohua's side, and said directly: "I don't think you guys should act rashly, this place is very mysterious, if something uncontrollable comes out, everyone will have nothing to eat."

Only then did Qin Ai smile mockingly, and said: "Although we have the same goal before, we have already arrived here, so everyone will go to their own places. We don't care what you do or don't do; don't care what we want to do. .If you insist on dividing life and death before proceeding to the next step, then we are all welcome."

The fat man said: "Don't be so unscrupulous, who knows if your stupidity will cause any crisis, and we will be buried at that time. What the hell did I become, the fat man? You little concubine!"

Qin Ai still wanted to reply, Zhang Qiling went straight to the front of the fetal sac, unloaded the black gold with his backhand, and stabbed it into the meteorite sac with force.That thing was really a living thing, after eating this knife, it moved suddenly and violently, and then the blood vessel-like protrusions all over the surface shrank, squeezing the sac wrapped inside to bulge everywhere.Seeing that the fetal sac was contracted to the extreme and was about to be squeezed and burst, it suddenly stretched out again, driving those "vessels" to quickly retreat.There seemed to be a powerful force wrapped in the fetal sac, and a flick of hula released a powerful air current, blowing us right and left.Pushed by this force, Hei Jin flew upside down with a muffled groan, and was nailed into the white smoke on the ground.

The moment Heijin entered the ground, the air flow suddenly swirled.At first, it only revolved around the black gold in a small area, and then spread out all of a sudden, reaching the dark depths that cannot be seen through the entire space.After the airflow dissipated, the ground began to take on a rusty yellow color, as if the ground had become as transparent as dark yellow crystals.

We were blown down so suddenly that we had no idea what was going on.Xiaohua has already realized: "The heaven and earth are dark and yellow, the universe is prehistoric—so this is the chaos that Wang Zanghai refers to? Then this fetal spirit—"

When Xiao Hua said these words, she was no longer as calm as usual, but instead looked extremely shocked.

The fat man followed Xiao Hua and stood up. He probably didn't hear what Xiao Hua said, and said, "What's the matter, Master Hua? Why are you talking about wonton again?"

What Xiaohua said "the heaven and the earth are mysterious and yellow, and the universe is prehistoric" comes from the most extensive and exquisite mysterious book in China, "Book of Changes", or more specifically, "Book of Changes".This sentence describes the world we live in now, which is formed from the ancient chaotic state. The "Book of Changes" records that "the light and clear rise to the sky, and the cloudy and turbid ones descend to the earth", which tells the process of the formation of the world.This process is called "Pangu created the world" in ancient Chinese myths and legends. Because they could not understand this physical process, the ancient people imagined a god who made such a great feat of dividing the world.

Coincidentally, this process is recorded as the Big Bang in foreign academic circles, and thus matter of different masses constitutes stars and life.Before the big bang, the entire universe was a chaotic mass of super-dense particles.In the "Book of Changes", this group of large particles has another name: Tai Chi.

That is to say, academics both at home and abroad have shown the existence of this "chaotic" state, and at the same time deduced the formation of the time and space we are in now. Although the expressions are different, their meanings are exactly the same.

It has to be said, a stunning fit.

The only possibility for such a coincidence between different cultural backgrounds is that chaos really exists.

Xiaohua's expression was heavy, her eyes stayed on the fetal sac, she frowned and said, "I think the message left by Wang Zanghai should refer to the state inside the bronze gate. Nothing is born, nothing is born—it is also said that chaos is formless and formless, but There is the miraculous power of creation, so "nothing" and "chaos" refer to the same thing. This thing is different from yin and yang, and both have the dual phases of destruction, transformation and creation—the Great Freedom we saw in Tallinn, isn't there also? Same function?"

Zhang Yinzhen said: "God does not exist. The ancients created such things as gods because what they saw and heard was beyond their comprehension and control. Since gods do not exist, the origin of the image of Da Zi Zai Tian , should be the 'nothing' that Wang Zanghai said. No wonder Wang Zanghai is so sure of rebirth, it turns out that behind the bronze door, there is such an energy enough to create the world."

The fat man said depressedly: "Are you playing charades? What are they talking about? Why can't I understand any of them?"

Can't blame Fatty either.He must have never read the Book of Changes, and he half understood the message Wang Zanghai left before, and it is normal for him not to understand the communication between Xiaohua and Zhang Yinzhen.But for me, the conclusions of Xiaohua and Zhang Yinzhen are like keys, unlocking all the shackles of my confusion.

I remembered that Wu Xie asked Zhang Qiling what was behind the bronze door, and Zhang Qiling said that it was the ultimate of all things.

He was absolutely right.

What is the ultimate?It is to die and come back to life.This is an endless loop without end.The carrier that supports this conversion process is energy.The law of conservation of energy in modern physics points out that energy can neither disappear nor be created out of thin air, it can be transferred from one object to another, and can be converted from one form to another.

Where does energy come from?It comes from the first division of chaos, from the big bang of the universe, the original life of all things began from then, the energy that affects the formation of life of all things, existed in the beginning of super-density chaos before the big bang.

Wang Zanghai defines the ultimate of all things: nothingness, chaos, and the god of creation.

And the god of nothingness, chaos, and creation actually all refer to the same thing: the energy that breeds life in the universe.

Not only that.Regarding chaos, there is another theory in the human knowledge system.The concept of chaos is also mentioned in ancient Greek mythology, and is believed to be the god that gave birth to the world.Like Pangu, gods do not exist, but the theory of gestating the world is completely consistent with what is mentioned in the I Ching and the Big Bang Theory-the whole world is developed from an infinite space.Since this development is not promoted by the hand of God, it can only be understood that the initial chaotic state of the universe undergoes energy changes by itself, thus disintegrating and deconstructing the material world in which various lives exist.Also known as the organic world.And these organisms are just energy bodies of individual units.

Although Wang Zanghai has never studied modern physics, he accurately described the existence of this energy with his knowledge, which is also the truth he learned after entering the Bronze Gate.He once thought he was spying on the way of heaven, but he didn't know that such a powerful force existed in the world, so he also became greedy for eternal life.The reconstruction of the Changbai Palace he presided over, and everything he arranged was not for the resurrection of the Wannu King, but for his own rebirth.

I sorted out the meanings of these layers of chaos, and then briefly explained it to the fat man.The fat man was amazed and puzzled: "That is to say, the resurrection and eternal life that the ancients talked about can be taken seriously? Tsk tsk, but why has no one realized it since ancient times? Including Wang Zanghai, he Although he has tried his best to retain his spirit body consciousness, he didn't seem to get up and dance on the grave immediately!"

The others were not as relaxed as Fatty, and even had a dignified look on their faces.Xiaohua said: "Even if there is life energy that travels here and there, it doesn't mean that something can be created anytime and anywhere. It should take a long cycle to conceive life, and the energy structure between individuals must be different. Otherwise, why is the mountain a mountain and the water is water? So Wang Zanghai may be waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity when the energy volume and structure are suitable for him.”

Xiaohua's words immediately reminded me of two things.One was when Fatty and the others entered the Heavenly Palace last time, they were with Chen Pi Asi.There was a brief "death" phenomenon on Chen Pi Asi's body. At that time, Monk Hua and the others confirmed that the old man had no vital signs.However, within half an hour, the old man suddenly gasped.Fatty may have forgotten this small episode. At first we thought it was a misjudgment, but now we infer that it may be because the life energy scattered in Tiangong happened to give Chen Pi'a a breath of life.The other is the time point of ten years. I said: "The bronze door will open every ten years. Could it be because the energy here changes periodically, and this change is the irresistible factor that causes the door to be opened?"

Xiaohua said: "This possibility is not ruled out. Since the life energy of the universe can create things, it will of course disappear. This is an inevitable cycle of energy conversion. So as Wang Zanghai recorded, this chaotic energy will of course create It has two functions of life and destruction. I just don’t know whether it is positive energy or dead energy that catalyzes the opening of the bronze door.”

Qin Ai said: "There is no need to continue discussing this issue, and we are not here to do research. Life energy and death energy are all mysterious things, and we still can't see or touch them after discussing for a long time. Since here It’s just such a raw fetus, maybe there’s something useful inside, open it quickly and have a look!”
