Darkness is Coming: Chapter 3 foggy

   Dawn is approaching, and the Yuanjiang River today is much quieter than before, but it is an unnerving, deadly silence.

  Yang Xiaoqian rubbed his head. He had not slept all night, but his mind was surprisingly awake, without the tiredness and drowsiness of talking all night long.

From last night to this morning, for eight or nine hours, he asked countless questions and answered countless questions. He finally eased his doubts and gave Yu Qian a preliminary understanding of the earth he was in: For example, the five permanent hooligans, such as nine-year compulsory education, such as planes, satellites, cannons, tanks, of course, Yu Qian is more interested in the humanities of the new world and the completely different history after the Ming Dynasty.

   "What he said should be the truth." Yang Xiaoqian thought to himself, looking at Yu Qian who had eaten ten takeaways in one night and was still eating.

  According to this Yu Qian, he came from another earth.

   is not another planet, but another earth. The history of that earth before the Ming Dynasty was exactly the same as that of the earth on which it was located, but this trajectory changed during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

  In the thirty-eighth year of Wanli, that is, in 1610 AD, a plague with a high infectious rate and fatality rate suddenly broke out in Nanjing, and those who died of the plague were transformed into living corpses that hunted human beings without pain.

   One sentence summary is: Ming Dynasty version of Resident Evil.

  Unexpectedly, the Ming Dynasty did not perish, nor did human civilization. After paying a certain price, the living corpses were wiped out.

   But this is just the beginning. In the next 400 years, countless natural disasters and foreign invasions of all sizes, large and small, continued to come, destroying the human beings on that earth.

   And Yu Qian crossed this peaceful earth through some kind of black technology, and brought a bad news: this earth is also about to face disaster.

   Yang Xiaoqian asked countless seemingly unrelated questions as a test, but most of Yu Qian's responses were mutually corroborative. This is not like a clever lie, but more like a mentally ill conjecture-or fact.

There are just a few more questions... Yang Xiaoqian pondered for a while, and then asked: "I don't quite understand. At that time, the whole city of Nanjing became a living corpse. How can the strength of the military resist such a disaster?"

"I couldn't stop it originally." Yu Qian replied while stuffing a chicken drumstick into his mouth, "but there are some strange reasons that blocked the advance of the living corpses, so that they all gathered in one place, so that the Ming Shenzong had time to organize the army and the people. Blockade, then dig traps, dig rivers, pile up strong crossbow artillery, plus a lot of alien generals who have the ability to open the chains, finally annihilated the living corpse and won a breather."

   Open the chain? Have the ability? Yang Xiaoqian remembered the chain on Yu Qian's forehead when he was driving the flying knife (chopping knife) last night. Is this the "Awakened" that must appear in the legendary end of the world?

   But these are not the key.

   "Strange reason? What reason?"

"do not know."

"do not know?"

"I don't know! I can know that these are already well-remembered. I have not received any nine years of education and have never taken a history class - there is no history class at all." Yu Qian pouted angrily, "But speaking, since This earth is already so highly developed, and the force is as powerful as you describe, this kind of corpse disaster can't make any waves at all?

"It's hard to say." Yang Xiaoqian shook his head in denial, "Every issue must be considered relatively. Although our army is strong and our weapons are powerful, our population is also very large and dense. The most deadly thing is that our transportation is too convenient. If this kind of disaster really happens, the disease carriers can take trains, cars, planes, ships and other means of transportation to the whole country and even the whole world in one day. It is difficult to form an effective blockade."

"Is it worse than the Ming Shenzong period? Once this kind of disaster breaks out, human civilization will be destroyed?" Yu Qian began to worry. After a night of understanding, he knew that the world was far more beautiful than he imagined. He has not yet begun to enjoy it. A beautiful world It's over? Can not accept.

"Oh, that's unlikely. You have to know that what we have here is not only military power, but also propaganda, imagination, and R&D capabilities." Yang Xiaoqian smiled proudly with a sense of superiority, "First of all, it is propaganda. In the past few years, I have experienced the crisis of a large-scale infectious virus. At that time, the whole country was panicked and everyone was uneasy, but with the cooperation of the country's strong publicity and organizational capabilities, most people survived the epidemic safely."

"Furthermore, imagination, in the eyes of the Ming Shenzong period, living corpses are terrifying creatures that cannot be understood, and they are natural disasters. But in our place, almost everyone knows what it is, and the psychology of fear should not be too much. Strongly—well, probably, people will come up with countless ways to deal with them.”

"Finally, research and development capabilities. From a biological point of view, it is impossible for this powerful virus to have no early warning signs. Maybe it has successfully developed a serum and an antidote before it ravages a large area. After isolation and quarantine, it may be easily eliminated. disease."

"Of course, what I said is too idealistic. But! Even if it's not good, we still have a nuclear submarine fleet that lives in the deep sea for months or even years! There are also various strategic facilities such as epidemic prevention and air defense. It's impossible for a corpse to destroy human civilization. To be reasonable, it's impossible. But if the response is not good, many people will die in vain."

   Yu Qian's eyes became brighter the more he listened. He was not only happy for the strength of this earth, but also satisfied with the analytical ability of his temporary guide - as for whether it was correct, he didn't care, anyway, it was only on paper.

   "Okay! I'm full." Yu Qian, who seemed to have a space hole in his stomach, finally stopped eating, spread his hands and said, "Let's think about how we will deal with the disaster next!"

   "...Uh, this." Yang Xiaoqian was a little embarrassed, "Are you sure there will be some kind of disaster or foreign invasion?"

Yu Qian lowered his head and pondered for a while, the light chain on his forehead reappeared, the kitchen knife spun in the air, and he nodded heavily: "It should be true. Since I can really travel here, then disaster may really happen. Let's talk about this. ." He pointed to the light chain on his forehead.

   "This chain, it is a kind of seal, which seals the ability of human beings. When you open the chain, you can use the magical ability. Then do you know where it came from?"

   Yang Xiaoqian shook his head, how could he know such an unscientific thing.

"I heard that this is the embodiment of the will of the stars." Yu Qian said eloquently, "Humans are different from other animals. Humans are smart, intelligent and greedy, and they can reproduce in large numbers. It is an irresistible disaster. So the will of the stars has sealed the ability of all human beings, and when the planet encounters an alien invasion, the will of the stars will select a suitable person to open the seal and release his ability to defend against foreign enemies."

   "Since I can now use my abilities like an arm and a finger, then... I am afraid that disaster will indeed be faced here."

   Yang Xiaoqian scoffed, the will of the stars? Gaia Consciousness Unity? He didn't believe it at all.

   Humans are too strong to be sealed? Or is it a disaster? what logic?

   Besides, where did the will of the stars come from? If it is born, it can't be just the earth, right? Is there any sun? Is there a moon? If it's man-made, wow, who made it? God? When disaster strikes, is it necessary for all human beings to announce: "Humble human beings, you are struggling to please the boring me" This kind of middle-two lines?

   How did such a boring consciousness evolve into a higher species like a god?

but! A big fist is the last word. Yu Qian has super powers. If he can't beat him, he has to listen to his reasoning.

   "What you said makes sense." Yang Xiaoqian nodded with a look of approval, "Then what should we do?"

"we need to…"

   Yang Xiaoqian's eyes wandered, not listening to Yu Qian's plan, but thinking about other questions:

   First of all, according to what Yu Qian said, the earth where he is located has undergone sudden changes since the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

Not to mention 400 years, even if it is 40 years, it can bring about a reverse change to the people in the whole world. As long as one person dies or encounters an accident and marries another person, it is possible that thousands of his descendants will cease to exist in the past 400 years. .

   This unstable time chain lasted for four hundred years.

   So what is the possibility of another Yu Qian in Yu Qian's world?

   is infinitely close to zero.

   Furthermore, Yu Qian said that he was thrown into the traversal door by another person who could not enter the traversal door, and that person gave a general description of the peaceful earth.

   So the question is, since that mysterious person can't pass through the door, how can he get information about another earth?

  Or, Yu Qian lied.

  Either, people from that world have come here, or, people here have been to the world over there...

  Yang Xiaoqian raised his head, his eyes showed through the window, the early morning sun had already blown into the sky, but there was a lot of fog in front of him.
