Chapter 764 "Twin-tailed Fish"

At night, when the children should go to bed and sleep with the company of fairy tales, the choir of the Church of Our Lady of San Antonio was replaced by men, who sang hymns in Italian with the accompaniment of the organ.

They could actually sing the gondolier's ditty, like the one Alejandro once sang outside the church, where he wanted a house with a well.

The basic principle of seawater desalination is actually similar to the water cycle in nature. Seawater is heated by sunlight and turns into water vapor. Then it floats to the land with the wind, and then falls on the land and turns into rain. The rain converges into rivers, lakes and seas, nourishing the water.

After removing plants and animals, they return to the sea.

Because the salt is too heavy to float, the fresh water flowing back from the river combines with it and turns into sea water.

In the movie the day after tomorrow, due to the melting of glaciers, a large amount of fresh water poured into the sea, affecting the ocean currents and causing climate chaos. The cities built by humans were destroyed by tornadoes and tsunamis, and humans ushered in the Ice Age again.

The by-product of seawater desalination is salt. If Pomona's idea can be realized, using salt bags to replace steel gates and temporarily blocking the entrance to the sea, then a seawater desalination project can not only solve the water problem of the island residents, but also

The by-product salt can also be used for flood control.

She had seen new energy power generation in the British Museum. Solar energy was probably not going to work. If a tidal power station could be built, it could solve Venice's electricity problem, and the heat from the seawater desalination process could also heat residents.

It was the samphire plant that allowed Venice to produce transparent glass, which Galileo then used to build his astronomical telescope.

When Moses led the Hebrews to trek in the desert, many people could not go on because of lack of water. Thirst was not a problem that could be solved by willpower.

He used a magical plant to make the undrinkable water drinkable again, and everyone was saved.

Pomona thought this when she saw the golden relief of the "Holy Grail" enshrined on the altar. It was the last cup used by Jesus in the Last Supper. The real thing has long gone. Many people are looking for it.

.

The function of the cup is to hold water and wine. Why didn't she think of it when she came here before?

"Where did you read that book?" Alessandro asked from behind her.

As for the old bat, he was standing in the center of the marble mosaic "whirlpool", closing his eyes and feeling the power of "healing".

"Have you ever heard of the Dead Sea?" Pomona turned and asked.

"Is that the lake where people can float without swimming?" Alessandro asked.

"Yes, that's right there. Someone found some old books in a cave near the Dead Sea. In the Bible, that place is called the Sea of ​​Araba." She said lightly.

"I know," said Alessandro. "Lot of Sodom had a disobedient wife. God turned her into a pillar of salt."

"Oh, yeah, that's the right place." Pomona said with a fake smile, "You are so smart."

"But that city was destroyed," said Alejandro.

"Yes, because there are too many gay men in that city." Pomona said with a sweet smile, "When God turns all the disobedient women into pillars of salt, isn't that what he has to do?"

Alessandro didn't quite believe it, and Pomona didn't bother to pay him any attention.

She was just a little bit close, so she took out her magic wand and cast a curse on this "man" who wanted to make women "obedient" at a young age.

The sin of Sodom and Gomorrah was so great that the Lord heard about it, and the Lord sent two angels to destroy the city. Abraham prayed for Sodom, and God promised him that as long as there were ten righteous people in the city, he would not destroy the city.

city.

That city was so full of sin that not even ten righteous people could be found. Finally, the LORD rained down brimstone and fire from heaven on Sodom and Gomorrah, and destroyed those cities, the entire plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities.

Everything that grew on the earth was destroyed.

For a moment, smoke rises all over the plain, like a kiln. The destruction of Venice will not be so exaggerated. It will slowly sink to the bottom of the sea. Who said that city now can't even gather a "parliament of ten".

Pisces is the last house of the zodiac, so it can be said that it combines all the advantages and disadvantages of the twelve constellations. It can also be symbolized by two fish swimming in opposite directions representing Pisces. This is multiple contradictions.

a zodiac sign.

Pisces is darker than Capricorn, representing secrets, dreams, and subconsciousness. On the bell tower of San Marco, it is adjacent to Aries, the zodiac sign, and it is directly opposite 12 o'clock at noon.

The extremes of things must reverse, peak and then decline. When the sun rises to the middle, it is the brightest and hottest and then begins to gradually decline. People of this zodiac sign are easily affected by negative emotions. It is difficult to save the city of Venice, but there is hope. If you don’t save it,

This city will be negative if it is allowed to take things as they come. Do something when you can, and escape until the end, which means there is no way out.

With so much money, there will always be people who can't help but tempt those who abuse their power, take bribes, and use the money to save Venice to buy houses in Sardinia or Paris.

Their goals are all wrong.

When this city was first built, people overcame countless difficulties and finally built it.

Just like many people who have put in a lot of effort to achieve success on the unknown road, they have to think about it every day, observe carefully, and summarize the rules before they can discover those physical and chemical formulas.

The smallpox seed was also planted by someone who carefully observed that there were acne marks on the arms of the milkmaid, and when smallpox was eliminated, cowpox was used instead of variola.

A person who can only enjoy blessings but cannot overcome difficulties cannot make the world a better place.

Time seems to have started a new cycle. When people became godless because of the Black Death, people returned to the past, sin has become the norm, and no one thought there was any problem.

The wedding in Cana tells the story of Jesus, Saint Mary and the apostles meeting a family holding a wedding banquet in Cana on the banks of the Jordan River. The host invited them to attend. At the wedding banquet, everyone drank and celebrated. Later, the wine was all gone and Jesus

The water in the altar was turned into wine, and everyone continued to drink and be merry.

If Maria had become pregnant out of wedlock and the Son's carpenter father had not married her, would there still be a Holy Family?

When Paolo Veronese came to Venice from Rome, he quickly abandoned his "bland" painting style and became rich in paint, and his painting style was close to that of Titian.

It was also said in the travel magazine that the painting in Notre Dame de l'Encon was painted by Tintoretto and that the one in the Louvre was a copy. No one mentioned the name of Paolo Veronese again, even though he was the original artist.

Paolo Veronese and Tintoretto were classmates, and Tintoretto must live under the fame of Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael, not to mention the paintings of Paolo Veronese before he became famous.

No one knows that some of the world-famous paintings were painted by unknown painters and then bore the name of the master.

Maybe it didn't exist at the time, but if there were high imitations in the museum that were difficult to detect with the naked eye, then no one would know.

The church has always opposed the inclusion of secular characters in religious themes, but painting was a big deal at that time, and it was a great honor to "participate" in the wedding in Ghana.

"The man who plays the instrument is Gabrieli, the organist of St. Mark's Church." Alessandro, who was following Pomona, said, "Some people say he is still here."

Pomona remained silent as she listened to the beautiful organ music.

"This painting was from the heyday of Venice, but Napoleon snatched it away. "The Last Supper" would have been snatched away if it hadn't been a mural." Alessandro said with hatred.

"You are lucky." Pomona stared at the painting and said, "The British Museum has a lot of Dunhuang murals. They demolished the entire wall of the Buddhist cave."

"Barbarian," said Alejandro, then added, "I'm not talking about you."

She didn't answer.

Depraved people will eventually degenerate. These people will not listen to any advice. Instead, they think that person is sick and meddling in other people's business.

Only those who want to correct themselves and long for redemption are worthy of saving.

In the movie the day after tomorrow, how many people survived in the New York Library?

The vast majority of people made the right choice and would starve to death if they continued to stay in the library without food.

But they did not expect that God did not choose them.

Why not just find enough supplies on the road, or find a safe place to hide, and wait for the storm to pass, instead of just following blindly?

The rain outside the church was getting heavier, and Pomona prayed in her heart that there would be no more floods in Venice tomorrow.
