Wei Hongjun's major quickly won over a group of fans, especially two girls, Ning Fan and Mu Fanqing. They were originally hardcore lovers of horror and supernatural stories and were very interested in this type of mysterious sacrificial ritual.

The other companions were not much calmer than the two of them. With Professor Wei's introduction, the mysterious veil of Dibulon Island was gradually unveiled.

"I'm afraid even the aborigines don't know much about the authenticity of the folklore about Dibulon."

"On the one hand, the indigenous people lack knowledge and do not understand scientific knowledge such as meteorites and plate movement. Secondly, the Hades Stone can indeed cause hallucinations in people."

"As rumors spread, Dibloon became more and more mysterious."

Once the truth was explained clearly, the fog that hung over everyone's hearts dissipated.

"Do you think there is alien life in the universe?"

The theory of meteorites has aroused great discussion, with topics ranging from sacrifices to discussions of extraterrestrial life.

"I think the earth is not the only planet with intelligent life. The universe has been vast and vast throughout the ages, and there are countless life forms. The universe is like a calm lake, and the evolution of life is like the occasional ripples on the water. Some are fleeting, and some are long-lasting.

Long."

"Life is easy to come by, but civilization is difficult to achieve."

"There are many opportunities for life to form, but very few can survive the test and gradually form civilization."

"You mean there is life on many planets?" Mu Fanqing asked.

Wei Hongjun said solemnly: "Yes, I think so."

His words made most people think deeply. How life came into being, how civilization developed, and how many civilizations have appeared on the earth are still debated by all parties. Extraterrestrial life is even more talked about by everyone.

topic of.

Life does not mean civilization. When humans begin to set their sights on the universe beyond the earth, they hope to discover other civilizations in the Lonely Star Field.

"Alien life and alien civilization are two different things."

Scientists have discovered low-level life on meteorites, so whether life on earth originated from the earth itself or from meteorites is still being debated.

Wei Hongjun added: "It is inevitable for humans to explore outer space."

Yun Tianming asked in confusion: "Then why do you think we haven't found any signs of extraterritorial civilization?"

"Then what do you think are the signs of extraterrestrial civilization?" the professor asked.

Yun Tianming thought for a while and said: "Let's light it up."

"No, it's a creature." Xiuxiu next to her retorted.

Unnatural creation!

Like a straight line, located in the Nazca wilderness in southern Peru in western South America, there are many ground paintings, including a line that stretches for several kilometers;

Such as a standard four-sided pyramid, the pyramids distributed in Egypt and America;

Like the Great Wall that meanders between steep mountain peaks;

Like the densely packed artificial satellites outside the atmosphere.

"You are both right and wrong. Different civilizations have different development trajectories. Human beings have learned to use electricity and built lights. It does not mean that other civilizations also have such inventions, nor does it mean that we cannot see a certain planet when observing it.

The light shows that there is no civilization on the planet."

Everyone was confused and opened their eyes wide in anticipation of the professor's next words.

"First answer the tour guide Yun Tianming's question."

Freeman Dyson proposed a theory in 1960: When human civilization develops to a certain height, we can create a celestial body to wrap around the entire star to collect energy from it. This artificial celestial body is called a Dyson sphere.

.

For humans on earth, this technology is still a far-fetched theory. What if it is a higher-level civilization? Civilizations that can already travel through interstellar space are likely to master this technology. Once the star is completely wrapped by the Dyson sphere,

The light of stars is also locked and will not escape. So how can humans detect light through astronomical telescopes?

If there is no light, there will be no stars in that star field. Without stars, how can we observe whether there is civilization? Looking up at the sky at night, the stars that we can see with the naked eye are stars or nebulae.

Wei Hongjun continued to answer Xiuxiu's doubts, and said: "The creation you mentioned is not entirely correct. If there is life on a planet, civilization has developed, but this planet is like the moon, with only one side rotating towards us, and the other side

It's a barbaric wilderness with no signs of life, how can we judge whether there is life in it?"

After these words, everyone fell silent.

A small question triggering such a profound discussion is beyond the comprehension of those who have never been exposed to this knowledge.

Xiang Nan knew that Professor Wei had already spoken in a very simple and easy-to-understand manner. If he explained the report data from his daily research and some obscure professional terminology, everyone here would probably be confused.

The universe is vast and eternal, and Xiang Nan also believes that there is more than one civilization on our planet, but it has not been discovered yet due to many reasons.

The universe is a dark forest, and every civilization is a hunter with a gun... We have reason to believe that when life on a certain planet develops to a certain height, the civilizations that exist on it will gradually discover that they are not the only ones in the universe.

If you exist, you will try your best to protect yourself.

Wolves on the prairie will hide themselves behind piles of bulrushes before chasing prey, mice will dig holes, and insects will disguise themselves. These are the instincts of life. Instinct prevents one from being eaten and destroyed by more powerful creatures. Instinct prevents oneself from being eaten and destroyed by more powerful creatures.

Hidden better and camouflaged to obtain more food to survive and reproduce.

During his lifetime, British physicist Stephen William Hawking had always warned mankind not to search for extraterrestrial civilizations, not to send signals to the universe, and not to do anything that would expose the existence of civilization on earth. Human civilization is still in its infancy, ignorant and ignorant.

They are curious about any new things and want to explore and find out. They don't know how to hide or protect themselves.

It is foolish for us to expose ourselves naked to the universe.

Everyone listened attentively to Wei Hongjun's popularization of scientific knowledge. Even Han Qiao, a big boss, was fascinated. For a moment, he accidentally noticed that Zhao Wuji, who was kneeling beside him, became even more crazy.

He stood up, made a weird gesture of worship, and jumped towards the sacrificial pit not far in front of him.

When Han Qiao realized something had happened and turned around hastily, it was already too late.

"Zhao Wuji!!!" Han Qiao shouted. He threw himself forward and fell to the ground, only having time to touch Zhao Wuji's two toes with his hands.

However, such first aid was in vain. Zhao Wuji had already fallen into the shaft, and a dull sound pierced everyone's nerves.

Everyone gathered around the sacrificial pit on the ground and shouted down.

"Zhao Wuji, Zhao Wuji!"

Another miss caused Han Qiao to collapse completely. He sat on the cold ground, pounded his hands and shouted.

"Han Qiao, this is not your fault." Gao Xiaoxi squatted in front of him to comfort the man who was blaming himself.

"Zhao Wuji has fallen into obsession and lost consciousness. Even if he doesn't jump, he will do even crazier things. You can't watch him for a while."

Persuasive words had no effect on the person involved. Han Qiao blamed himself and remained silent. Gao Xiaoxi was worried about what would happen to him and stayed with him all the time.

The chamber was dark, and the people who came in did not immediately check all the conditions inside because they were tired. Instead, they sat on the floor to catch their breath and talk. Wei Hongjun also felt guilty. He knew very well that there was a sacrificial pit in the center of the chamber, but he did not expect it to be so

Shen. His wrong judgment and failure to alert everyone in time caused Zhao Wuji to fall into the well.

This sacrificial pit was deeper than any he had ever seen.

I used a flashlight to illuminate the situation in the pit to the south. It was completely dark 2 meters away. Except for the mottled and rough cave walls, it was an infiltrating darkness.

"Zhao Wuji?" Everyone shouted for a long time, but there was no response.

"Xiang Dui, what should we do now?" Yun Tianming, Luo Zhan and the others couldn't think of a good way. None of them knew what was going on and didn't dare to make a rash decision, so they had to ask Xiang Nan, who was still calm and composed.

Xiang Nan was silent for a long time before saying: "We don't know what's going on in the sacrificial pit. So, let's find a way to get a rope to tie the flashlight and hang it down to have a look."

As soon as he made his suggestion, Luo Zhan, Yun Tianming, and Zhou Fansheng began to untie the belts on their waists. Ning Fan, Mu Fanqing, and Gao Xiaoxi were all wearing sweatpants with elastic belts and could not provide any help, so they helped to make them.

Temporary rope.

On the other side, when Han Qiao heard this, he not only took out his belt, but also took off his traveling cedar.

"Xiang Dui, use my clothes for these clothes." He said as he tore the clothes into thin strips. Han Qiao was the first, and after him Zhou Fansheng also started to take off his clothes.

Soon, a simple rope was ready. The arm span to the south was 175cm and the rope was roughly 21 meters long.

With the flashlight firmly tied to one end of the rope, they began to slowly lower the rope.

"Xiang Dui, the flashlight is not bright enough." After the rope was lowered to a height of about 6 or 7 meters, it disappeared into darkness. After going down about 1 meter, the surroundings were completely invisible.

"It doesn't matter. If the flashlight touches the ground, the tension on the rope will slow down."

Everyone nervously waited for the signal that the rope had reached the bottom. Just when Xiang Nan lowered the rope to the end and there were still two people's length left, the tight rope in his hand slackened.

"The flashlight hit bottom."

"Zhao Wuji, Zhao Wuji! Can you hear me?"

"Pull the rope while you're still alive."

Everyone waited with bated breath for a minute, but the rope did not move at all.

Gao Xiaoxi shook her head and said: "If you fall from such a height, even if you don't break into pieces, you will go into shock and coma due to severe pain and excessive blood loss."

The forensic doctor's words gave Zhao Wuji the death penalty.

"No, I want to go down and have a look."

"I want to go down too."

Zhou Fansheng and Luo Zhan spoke out one after another.

"No, this sacrificial pit is too high. If you want to go down, you need to prepare professional equipment. You need a special outdoor rappel." Xiang Nan understood why the two were anxious. They were worried about the missing An Nian and Bai Xiaozhou.
