Urban Legends: The Legacy of Ancient Civilizations

"You know, I have many businesses, and every one of them can easily buy your life, so you'd better be in trouble."

Jiang Yingxue's sensual voice made her feel a little more feminine, and the mean connotation in her words made the old housekeeper on the side slightly raise the corners of her mouth, looking like she was in a good mood.

The usual cold disregard, the usual domineering attitude, and the true sense of being confident.

Silently taking out the red crystal core and placing it on the table, Jiang Yingxue's cold expression became a little more fanatical, just like Bai Ning's before.

It is precisely because he is well aware of the commonality between the two of them that Bai Ning can be so calm and informal when facing this cold woman.

"There have been various rumors about crystal since ancient times. In the Bible, it is described as one of the twelve gemstones that form the foundation of the Holy City.

In general folk customs, crystals are also widely used in the fields of spirituality and meditation. In the West, crystal balls are used for divination. In Indian culture, people believe that crystals can purify the soul and help people better communicate with their hearts. .

The crystal coffin represents the death of the body and the eternity of the soul. "

Jiang Yingxue picked up the crystal core and looked at it for a few times. The cold touch from her fingers seemed to have a special magic power, giving it a sense of pleasure that came from the depths of her soul.

“If gold and jade are in the nine orifices, the dead will become immortal.

Jade immortalizes the body, while crystal has a psychic effect and is related to the human soul.

The role of the crystal coffin can be understood to a certain extent as a container for the human soul, allowing the soul to live forever.

What is trapped in this crystal core is a soul that is about to collapse, coming from a recent spontaneous combustion of the human body. "

Jiang Yingxue had a certain understanding of crystals, but she didn't seem to know the true value of this crystal core.

"This is really a dangerous and fascinating thing. It's really interesting, but it's only slightly interesting."

There are indeed few examples of spontaneous combustion in the human body, and there is no orthodox medical pathological explanation. There is indeed something special about this crystal nucleus, but it can only briefly surprise Jiang Yingxue.

"Many things do not exist in isolation, and a crystal core with a few souls does not mean anything.

You must have heard of the Tunguska explosion. So, how much effective information has your private channel provided you about the real secrets that may be hidden behind it? "

The meaning of the existence of crystal nuclei is not independent. The topic Bai Ning raised again made Jiang Yingxue a little surprised, wondering what the man in front of him wanted to do.

“The study of the Tunguska explosion is not a new topic, and the limited topics are also very limited, nothing more than the theory of meteorites, antimatter, icy comets, alien spacecraft explosions, etc.

As for the real reason, there is no conclusion yet. What, do you want to use the crystal core to summon the souls and find out the truth from the souls of more than 100 years ago? "

Jumping topics may surprise people, but Jiang Yingxue is Jiang Yingxue after all, and will not be led around by sudden topics.

“It is said that after the Tunguska explosion, animals in the villages near the explosion point disappeared for no reason, all the animals in the forest disappeared, and the fish and shrimp in the river were also missing.

After a while, some animals that had never been seen before appeared in the forest. They looked like pigs but not pigs. They walked listlessly. Wherever they went, leaves fell and flowers withered. So the villagers chased them with guns, but the animals It ran so fast that it was impossible to hit it, and it disappeared in an instant, just like it had escaped from the ground.

Many years later, newborn children in the village began to have deformities. What was even more terrifying was that animals passing through the core explosion area would spontaneously combust inexplicably. There were animal and human bones in the nearby pits.

It is precisely because of the horror of the explosion site that it is called a ghost grave by nearby residents. "

Bai Ning's story was more akin to a disaster legend, far from Jiang Yingxue's previous scientific speculation, but the details contained in it still caught Jiang Yingxue's attention.

"Having said so much, what you want to express most is the phenomenon of spontaneous combustion in animals.

I have also heard rumors about this part. To explain this phenomenon, scientists attribute it to the leakage of underground natural gas in Tunguska. "

The theory of underground natural gas leakage is also one of the many explanations for the Tunguska explosion. Jiang Yingxue also wanted to use this kind of rhetoric to hint to Bai Ning, and wanted to connect the spontaneous combustion of the human body with the Tunguska explosion. This small similarity alone is not enough.

Bai Ning just laughed at Jiang Yingxue's doubts.

"According to general records, the situation in Russia was in turmoil when the Tunguska explosion occurred in 1908, so officials simply did not have the power to explore and verify it.

It wasn't until 1927 that Soviet scientists went to investigate, but they dug deep and found nothing.

The official explanation seems very reasonable at first glance, but it cannot withstand careful scrutiny. After the Tunguska explosion, huge explosions could be heard for thousands of kilometers.

The explosion was recorded by seismic stations across Eurasia, and the unstable air pressure it caused was even detected by the automatic air pressure recorder just invented in Britain at the time. Within days after the incident, the night skies of Asia and Europe showed Weird dark red.

Such a huge ominous sign could easily be interpreted as a sign of national destruction, and it was impossible for the Tsar not to send personnel to investigate.

The unified explanation at the official level, if interpreted from the perspective of deliberately concealing the truth, is that after Tsarist Russia sent people to explore the truth of the Tunguska explosion, certain secrets were sealed away by the Tsarist Russian royal family.

It was not until the founding of the Soviet Union and a large amount of royal information was declassified that this dusty past was reopened for investigation.

Judging from the importance the Soviet Union attached to it at the time, they drained the explosion crater in Tongus and dug three feet of the ground. It is unjustifiable to say that they did not discover any secrets based on Tsarist Russia’s investigation.

In addition, a large part of the reason why urban legends related to the Tunguska explosion spread is because of the disintegration of the Soviet Union. The confidentiality of a lot of information was no longer strict, so it was spread in the form of urban legends. "

Bai Ning's subsequent interpretation seemed to be leading the cause of the Tunguska explosion to some deeper secrets. With so many thoughts in her mind, her eyes finally lit up, and she looked at the red crystal core with an even more enthusiastic expression. .

"You mean, this crystal core is the key to the ruins of an ancient civilization?"

"yes.

The spontaneous animal combustion phenomenon that occurred in the core area of ​​the Tunguska explosion was probably an external manifestation of the related possibility.

As for the strange creatures that appear in other rumors that look like pigs but are not pigs, wherever they go, leaves and flowers fall and wither, it is possible that some creatures from the ancient ruins were leaked after the big explosion.

In a word, this special crystal core is the key to opening the mysterious door, and it will definitely make your trip worthwhile. "

After exhausting all his words, Bai Ning also said this. He believed that Jiang Yingxue could not resist the temptation.

"Uncle Qian, bring me a map. I need to plan my next trip."

Jiang Yingxue gave a neat order, and the matter seemed to be settled.

Not long after, a military-grade map was brought over. After checking it for a while, Jiang Yingxue gave instructions again: "After leaving the country, we will take the Chita-Lake Baikal route. After replenishing our equipment, we will follow the Yenisei River. The basin moves northward into the Tunguska region.”

Jiang Yingxue's execution ability is extremely strong, and the planned route is also very reasonable. The idea of ​​traveling to the primeval forest area via waterway is also the most convenient.

However, the independent place name Chita is very abrupt. You must know that there are many supply cities near Lake Baikal. Chita is definitely not the closest, and is even a bit remote.

In addition, Chita is also very famous in urban legend circles and is not an unknown city on the shores of Lake Baikal.

"Why, can this crystal core also be related to some past secrets of Chita City?"

"You will know when you go there, and someone will explain it to you.

In addition, I am the absolute leader of the follow-up plan. For a worthless person, no matter how much I know, it is useless. "

Jiang Yingxue's tough attitude clearly clarified the master-slave relationship between the two, which was indeed the case. She spent real money to produce other information, and the cooperative relationship did not equal information sharing.

The price for obtaining information is equal exchange. Bai Ning once again made it clear the tone of cooperation with this woman.

Jiang Yingxue's business spans both domestic and overseas, and it only takes a few phone calls to go abroad. Not long after, Bai Ning and Jiang Yingxue were already on the flight to Chita International Airport.

Jiang Yingxue, who was sitting by the window, didn't appreciate the white clouds and dogs outside the window. She didn't know whether it was because of work or because she was used to seeing the magnificent scenery high in the sky.

Bai Ning, who was sitting aside, had nothing to do and could only lower his head and ponder some things related to future adventures.

Long-term boredom will eventually make people drowsy. This uncomfortable feeling made Bai Ning slightly surprised. The discomfort coming from outside the biological clock made him decisively call the flight attendant service.

"What, are you airsick?

I didn’t expect you to have such unexpected moments of vulnerability. "

After drinking a little of the cold drink in the cup, Bai Ning was slightly startled by Jiang Yingxue's chatter, and then thought it was nothing.

"The fact that you care about your companions shows that you attach great importance to the follow-up adventure. What, can you reveal a little bit about the follow-up content?"

Climbing up the pole, Bai Ning was indeed very interested in the secrets behind the Chita zombies.

"It's just some casual investment, and no substantial progress has been made so far. I hope that some of the knowledge you have can open up the current sluggish situation."

A very straightforward response that sounds more like a very perfunctory excuse.
