"CCTV! CCTV! Audience friends, you are watching CCTV now!"

"Viewers! My current location is Queens, New York City. A riot just occurred here. The New York police used a large number of personnel to forcibly disperse the rioting crowd. This riot resulted in one death and more than 30 injuries. Related The situation is still being understood..."



"Now let's contact Sun Fei in Europe and let's learn about the situation there."

"Hello host!"

"Hello Sun Fei, can you tell us about the situation in Paris now?"

"Okay, this is it. Starting this afternoon, a large number of people gathered in front of the Elysee Palace in Paris, holding various slogans and demanding that the government reveal the truth of the matter. We can now see that a large number of police have gathered in front of the Presidential Palace. In order to prevent the situation from intensifying, President Sarkozy canceled his visit to the Middle East and called on the people to calm down through a televised speech..."

"Okay, let's connect to Su Ren who is in Tokyo again. Hello, Su Ren, hello, hello... Okay, maybe the satellite signal is not very good and we can't connect to Su Ren for the time being. It doesn't matter. Now we'll ask someone from the studio to The two guests will give us a scientific explanation of this incident."

"Welcome back. This is CCTV's special news observation program. First of all, I would like to introduce to the audience the two guests we have specially invited today. Of course, they are also authoritative experts in academia. This is Huo Sinian, an astronomer from Tsinghua University. Professor, this is Professor Zhang Ting’en, ​​an astrophysicist from the University of Science and Technology of China!”

"Good afternoon, professors. We know that today, at 7:15 am on the 22nd, Beijing time, the entire sun suddenly disappeared from the sky for a full 10 minutes. This special astronomical phenomenon was observed all over the world. There were no forecasts for the eclipse during the period, leading to a lot of speculation."

"Of course the most famous speculation is the prophecy about the doomsday. In the prophecy, the sun should completely disappear after yesterday, the 21st, and the earth will plunge into darkness. We know that many people are actually very concerned about this matter, especially some people abroad. , are very worried about the success of this prediction. As of 7 o'clock this morning on the 22nd, many people think that this prediction is just like the end of the world in 1999, and it is nothing more than a joke."

"However, we also know that at about 7:15, the entire sun suddenly disappeared for about 10 minutes without any warning. The entire earth was dark, and global communications fell into extreme chaos. The process lasted for 10 minutes and then returned to normal.

Therefore, many people believe that doomsday predictions may really come true. Of course, we know that this should be a special astronomical phenomenon, just because it has never happened before, so please help us understand it from a scientific perspective. Thank you! "

……*&……%&……%%((¥¥%&……

"Through the explanations of two professors with such authority, we suddenly became enlightened and made us believe that this special astronomical phenomenon has its inevitable scientific reason. Of course, it is also a refutation of various rumors such as doomsday predictions. We should also look at such things from a scientific perspective, without making ridiculous unnecessary panic..."

Chu Yunsheng reached out and turned off the remote control. He felt that there was no need to watch anymore. There was already a lot of criticism on the Internet. So-called experts refuting rumors has become synonymous with deceiving the public. Since 2008, not many people believe in so-called experts anymore. , Chu Yunsheng naturally didn’t believe it either.

Although the Internet has become a quarrel and the harmony army continues to harmonize, most people are still curious to watch the excitement. Of course, it has also caused panic to many people. Just look at the crowds of people rushing to buy food in the supermarket at noon. You will know that if If it cannot be calmed down in time, panic will cause significant economic losses.

Chu Yunsheng was very confident in his own judgment. He had felt something was wrong a long time ago. The reason was the ancient book passed down from his family. Although the words in the book were completely garbled and could not even be counted as oracle bones, he was still sure that it was an ancient book. Ancient books.

It is said to be an ancient heirloom book, but in fact it has always been used to stand on the foot of a bed or cabinet. Because this book looks too shabby and old, except that it is thicker, it has no other advantages. Chu Yunsheng's father kept saying that this book The book was handed down from ancestors and would not be sold even to death. But in fact, when Chu Yunsheng was admitted to college and waiting for money, Chu Yunsheng’s father secretly took this ancient heirloom book with him all over the country. The book was found in pawnshops and antique markets, and it turned out to be a useless book. Even the year was said to be at most three to five years, which was obviously inconsistent with what Chu Yunsheng's father said had been handed down from ancestors. This made Chu Yunsheng Dad was very angry.

Later, it was passed to Chu Yunsheng and continued to be used as a cushion. Until Chu Yunsheng decided to buy a house, like his father, he visited the antique market with full expectations, but still no one cared. He became angry. , Chu Yunsheng no longer thinks about this matter, this so-called ancient heirloom book silently acts as a footpad.

Until one night, after breaking up with his girlfriend of many years, when Chu Yunsheng was drunk, he strangely discovered that the ancient book that had been unknown for a long time actually emitted a dazzling light. Although the total time before and after did not exceed 20 seconds, Chu Yunsheng He was certain that he had seen it right. Even if his friends laughed at him and made his head wet, he still insisted that he had really seen it.

So next, naturally, driven by the psychology of money, he took the ancient book to all the pawn shops, but the result was very disappointing. Still no one recognized it as a treasure, so Chu Yunsheng was cruel and did some carbon element identification. , and it turned out that the appraisal clearly stated that it was just a normal book, not an ancient book at all.

This identification made Chu Yunsheng very frustrated at first, but he soon discovered that the problem was very strange. He had known about the existence of this book since he was a child. He could not guarantee how long it would last in his father's hands, but after he It has been at least more than 20 years since he could remember it, and he has seen it with his own eyes. Now the test results actually say that it is no more than ten years at most, which shows that this book is not only not garbage, but it is definitely a strange book.

Chu Yunsheng studied the material of the book for a long time, but there was no result. Later, he conducted a long study on the strange graphics and equally strange words on the book. With the help of almost the slightest similarity with Chinese characters and even oracle bone inscriptions, Chu Yunsheng Through the connection, Chu Yunsheng was able to learn about 300 relatively simple characters.

A mere three hundred words could not allow Chu Yunsheng to understand the complete meaning of this book. He could not even understand the content behind the ten pages. However, it was these ten pages that Chu Yunsheng could barely read. The author of this book took pains to warn future generations: "The path of heaven will follow, all laws will be restored, the universe will be restored, and the world will be in chaos."

During that time, Chu Yunsheng was in a bad mood because he was hit by love. Coupled with the impact of a doomsday movie in the United States and frequent earthquakes and floods around the world, he was very curious about this kind of doomsday prophecy, so he simply Out of boredom, I followed the calculation rules in the book and compared it with today's Western Yuan calendar and repeatedly calculated the date of the celestial orbit many times. This was not a bad thing. After a calculation, the period for the reunification of all laws was only less than The 21st of the doomsday prophecy is seven days late, which means that the great changes in the world mentioned in this book will not occur until the 28th.

Chu Yunsheng calculated it many times. At first, he was afraid that he would recognize few characters and make a mistake. Later, he recognized more and more characters and calculated more and more accurately. The time still pointed to the 28th. Chu Yunsheng was very panicked at that time. , he didn’t know why this book seemed to have a special magic power, which kept driving him to believe that great changes would happen that day.

Chu Yunsheng struggled with the matter for a long time. He once posted information about this date anonymously on the Internet, but the result was nothing. Because various doomsday predictions were flying all over the sky, the government strictly controlled rumors, and in serious cases, he was even banned from traveling across provinces by the government. Hunted, his posts quickly sank to the bottom.

Until three months ago, he once again discovered that this ancient book was emitting colorful light. At that time, he was just about to turn off the lights and go to sleep. The gorgeous colors illuminated the entire bedroom, almost beautiful, and Chu Yunsheng was almost stunned for a moment. .

The last time the ancient book shone, Chu Yunsheng was suspected by his friends because of drinking. Later, he almost thought it was an hallucination. However, this time he was very sober. After the shock, he no longer dared to doubt, so the three He had been preparing almost desperately for this day for months. His crazy behavior made all his friends think he was crazy, and some even wanted to send him to a mental hospital.

He sold the house he bought with a loan without hesitation, selling all the valuable things that he thought would not be needed in the future, in exchange for a large amount of cash. He believed that the core of Shencheng would be protected by the army in the future. He rented two houses on the same floor. He did not dare to rent on the ground floor or on the top floor, because ancient books said that the restoration of the sky rails would inevitably lead to the intersection of the sky rails in another space in the universe. At some point, there must be an invasion by powerful creatures from strange spaces, and their power cannot be resisted by earth creatures that have always been in a closed sky orbit.

Chu Yunsheng used the strongest steel to seal the doors and windows, and stored a large amount of food, pure water, and other daily necessities in the two houses. He bought a bunch of everything he could think of. He calculated that if he followed his He consumed up to 2 kilograms of rice a day, so he frantically bought more than ten tons of rice, which cost him more than 20,000 yuan. He estimated that it would be enough for him to eat alone for more than ten years.

Likewise water, salt, sugar, paper, batteries, even toothpaste, washing powder and lighters. Later, he spent a lot of money on the black market to buy a Type 92 pistol and 100 rounds of ammunition. Before the 21st, his bank deposits dropped sharply from hundreds of thousands to 2,000 yuan. It was not that he did not want to buy it. , but everything in the room was full, even the bathroom and bed were full.

One of the landlords of the house Chu Yunsheng rented was abroad and the other was in Shenzhen. He rarely returned to Shanghai. On the last day, which was approaching the 21st, he secretly forced a small door through the middle wall between the two rooms. He sealed the door and all the windows of the other room, and then quietly waited for the unknown changes.

It's not that Chu Yunsheng didn't want to help his friends, but unfortunately at the last moment almost everyone thought he was crazy, even his relatives thought he was crazy, and almost no one wanted to believe him.

However, since this morning, more and more people have called him because the sun disappeared in the morning was so shocking. Although many people still don't want to believe that something incredible has happened. After all, it is too ridiculous, but the panic is still there. It spread among the crowd, so many people who knew about his crazy preparations asked him what would happen, but Chu Yunsheng really didn't know, because he couldn't understand the words written in the ancient book "The Sky Track Follows" at the end, he just He could patiently persuade them one by one to quickly prepare supplies. When it was almost night, he went to the supermarket opposite the community to check out, and found that most of the items were empty.

The evening news repeatedly emphasized that this phenomenon is scientifically based and that the end of the world will not happen. At the same time, the commotion among foreign people demanding that the government reveal the truth is getting more and more serious. Even all website news has the same title:

When the sun disappears, are the doomsday predictions really coming?

The end of the world, are you ready?

The end of the world is coming, have you bought your ticket?
