Facts have proved that sometimes women's intuition is very accurate. For example, female creatures are born with an extra radar than male creatures. I remember that the Russian Empress Catherine the Great was able to predict the outbreak of the French Revolution and the rise of Napoleon with her intuition, and successfully predicted it. It resisted the attack of the dwarf and preserved the integrity of the territory, and was praised by later generations for its miraculous skills.
Today, there may be another "intuition crime" that will be recorded in history and sung by countless people. Professor Jiang intuitively fixed the dragon's cave by holding the Sinan Yangtze River. If the Baidi City hidden in history is really found in this water area, So whether this dragon-slaying battle is successful or not, this woman will be remembered in future textbooks.
There are thirty-three people on board the Monyach, which seems like a lot, but for a warship hidden as a tugboat, these numbers can be regarded as a concentration of concentration. They put down their work and temporarily The warship was parked on the river and everyone gathered on the deck to listen to the speech of this young woman in her thirties.
It was not a pre-war mobilization, nor a motivational speech. Jiang Peijiu looked at the many crew members on the deck, including the captain, and only asked one question, a simple and puzzling question.
"Dreaming? Why do you ask such a question?" The captain is a tough-guy Texas guy with a bald head and a military green coat. He is regarded as the temporary helmsman sent by the college. He is only responsible for driving the ship and nothing else. He can control The real captain of this mission attack is still on standby at the academy to teach normal courses, and will not leave for China until he discovers the location of the Dragon Tomb.
"There is no reason. I am a weirdo, so I ask strange questions, and everyone just needs to answer them." Jiang Peijiu, who was standing on the deck, nodded slightly and answered, her eyes staying on Ye Sheng at the front and the girl standing next to him. This time the dive was dedicated to Shutoku Aki, "Aki, I heard Ye Sheng said that you had a nightmare last night?"
"Yes... does this have anything to do with everyone else?" Jiude Aki was a little confused and looked at Ye Sheng, wondering why he told Professor Jiang these things and was brought up in public. When she did something serious, it felt like she had killed someone instead of having a nightmare last night.
"Contact? Maybe, it depends on your answers... Because as far as I know, it is a coincidence that Ye Sheng actually had the same nightmare as you last night." Jiang Peijiu looked at the other crew members and said.
If it were normal times, many sailors who are as wild as the rivers and seas would laugh at this pair of diving partners who seem to be in perfect harmony not only when diving, but also when they are on the bedside and outside the bed, but today they couldn't do this. What a joke. After listening to Jiang Peijiu's words, they all frowned and didn't speak for a long time, as if they were thinking carefully about something.
The captain raised his hand gently and asked, "There must be a way to determine what is called a 'nightmare', right? My son was frightened and cried because he dreamed that the butter at home was gone and there was no butter for bread for breakfast. For him, that's It’s just the worst nightmare.”
"Nightmares do not depend on the content. After all, everyone is afraid of different things. For people who are afraid of spiders, dreaming about spiders is a nightmare, but for people who have spiders as pets, it is undoubtedly a sweet dream or an ordinary dream. ." Jiang Peijiu paused, "So, I think a dream can be considered a nightmare if it will cause great panic and psychological pressure to the dreamer. If not having butter for breakfast will cause you stress and panic, then it can probably be considered a nightmare. kind."
"Well, last night I dreamed that I was overlooking a huge temple on the sea. It was a nightmare." The captain replied silently.
"Temple? This is not a good meaning. Temples have religious significance in all cultures, representing sacrifices, beacons, and worship... How does that temple make you feel?" Jiang Peijiu asked .
"It's a bit boring. After all, dreaming about a large building like that in a dream can feel very stressful. You know, the feeling of a nightmare is that although you don't see anything scary, in the dream you can know from God's perspective that there is something terrible. Something terrible is looking at me, and I feel an inexplicable feeling of fear." The captain smacked his lips, "I was actually not close to that place at all in my dream, but it felt like..."
"...It feels like the master in the Bronze Temple is looking at you from a distance, putting great pressure and fear on you?" Ye Sheng, the leader of the crew, suddenly said.
The captain raised his head with a cry and was about to get back together, but suddenly he reacted and looked at Ye Sheng strangely, and Ye Sheng also looked sideways at him and nodded lightly.
"Interesting..." Jiang Peijiu glanced at the two of them and said coldly. She observed the expressions of the other crew members. Every crew member had a strange expression after hearing this conversation. The atmosphere on the deck that was originally sunny and warm suddenly suddenly It became a bit weird and dull. There were few birdsong on the green hills on both sides and it seemed very quiet. The sound of gentle river water lapping against the boat suddenly seemed cool.
"Aki, can you tell me what nightmare made you wake up late last night?" Jiang Peijiu looked at Jiude Aki, who had been deep in thought.
"I...I dreamed of a building." Shutoku Aki hesitated and said.
"Be bold." Jiang Peijiu shook her head, "Say what you really want to say."
Shutoku Aki held the oxygen mask and exhaled. He closed his eyes as if he was remembering or meditating on something. Then he opened his eyes and said, "I dreamed of a temple...the Bronze Temple, just like what Ye Sheng said." That way, it's just that in the dream it was on the bottom of the sea... In fact, I didn't see it at all. This feeling was very strange. At the beginning, in the dream, I was swimming in an unknown sea area, with no islands or islands around it. There were only storms and waves on the ship. I was swallowed up by the big waves, held my breath, and came up to take a breath. When I was exhausted, the waves finally calmed down. Everything around me was black. I floated in the center of the water and suddenly realized There was something peeking at me deep in the water directly below me... I didn't know what it was at the time, but I could feel its presence. It was huge and majestic, standing in the water and watching quietly. I was so small on the water, watching me as if I were alive, and could break out of the water and swallow me up at any time. At that moment, panic and fear exploded in my heart. I had never had any fear of the deep sea before. It’s a mental illness, but I think what I felt at that time was probably what a patient with a mental illness would feel like when he develops it, right?”
"That's a good description." Jiang Peijiu nodded and turned her gaze to the big boy beside her, "What about you, Ye Sheng? Do you have anything to say?"
"Me? In my dream, I was standing at the door of a temple. Specifically, I was stepping on the steps in front of a temple." Ye Sheng's answer was even more amazing. If the captain and Aki were both separated by a long distance, Looking at the temple from a distance, he was almost in front of the temple.
"What does the temple look like?"
"I can't remember clearly." Ye Sheng shook his head. "After I woke up from the dream, it was like the white foam of the sea washed up on the beach and receded. I only vaguely remembered that the temple was made of bronze. The steps were all the same color, outlined with patterns that I couldn’t understand and had never seen similar patterns before. A voice asked me to climb up to the temple. In my dream, it spoke to me as if it was giving me orders, which was very disappointing. People are depressed and uncomfortable.”
"Where are the others? Do you have anything to add? If my guess is correct, you should have a lot to share with me now." Jiang Peijiu nodded lightly and looked at the other crew members.
After everyone looked at each other, someone finally couldn't help but speak, "In the dream, I was in a primitive forest. I seemed to be a hunter? Or a villager in the village. I can't remember clearly, but I only remember that I was in a primitive forest." There was a sharp corner of a temple exposed in the distance of the forest, so I walked towards it along a river like a man possessed. The river got wider and wider as I walked..."
As if it was the beginning, the crew members began to talk about their "dreams". Each "dream" had a strong overlap. The temple, the water flow, and something in the dream was watching them and inducing them. Threatening them... Without going into details, everyone knows that the crew of the Monyach seemed to have a nightmare on the entire river last night, and now they are telling and displaying these nightmares like a story gathering. .
In the nightmare, some people were in the wilderness, some in the mountains, and more people were on the sea. A few even met the temple in the city. Thirty-three people dreamed of the same thing. , this incident can be called a supernatural event anywhere, enough for the "Access to Science" program to shoot a brand new episode, and it is also one of the few that does not use "scientific" methods to answer questions and puzzles. Case.
"This is unusual, isn't it, Professor Jiang?" Ye Sheng looked at Jiang Peijiu, who had fallen into silence since the crew started telling their stories, and asked, "But can I ask a question?"
"explain."
"Professor Jiang, didn't you have the same dream as us last night?" Ye Sheng asked.
"No." Jiang Peijiu said, "I didn't sleep last night."
"If I remember correctly, Professor Jiang spent the whole night on the deck looking at the compass...well, that's what you call Si Nan." The captain who stayed up late said to Ye Sheng.
"Thank you for your hard work, Professor..." Ye Sheng was stunned for a moment and then scratched his head and said.
"Now it seems that sometimes hard work does not mean practicality. Maybe if I was lazy last night, I could see the 'temple' that everyone has seen. I don't know if I would have a chance to meet some of the people who care about me if I sleep now. The mysterious existence of the Monyach." Jiang Peijiu chuckled and shook her head, "But obviously now is not the time to sleep. Now that the phenomenon has occurred, what we should do is to concentrate on studying the nature of this phenomenon and trace the origin. Even if we can’t investigate, we still have to try our best to restore the process of its occurrence.”
"In fact, the professor should have the answer in mind, right?" Ye Sheng asked in a low voice.
"Two answers, which one do you want to hear?" Jiang Peijiu looked at Ye Sheng, who was always very sensitive and understanding of people's minds, and asked.
"Anything is fine, I trust the professor's intuitive judgment." Ye Sheng said with a smile.
Jiang Peijiu nodded and said: "The scientific answer is that there is a huge space under the riverbed under the river below our feet. Geographically speaking, there are underground rivers, potholes, or land with complex geological structures. Under certain circumstances and times, long vibration waves, particle flows and other substances that are highly disruptive to the human body may be emitted, causing hallucinations and physiological discomfort in those affected.”
"For example, having a nightmare." Shutoku Aki whispered. She has not yet fully recovered from her energy. Even with light makeup on her face, she looks a little slumped, causing Ye Sheng to look at her worriedly from time to time.
"The worse the physical fitness of the person, the stronger the impact will be. Yaji, you have never focused on physical fitness, so Ye Sheng, who is also affected, will recover much faster than you. The other crew members on the Monyah They also hold on to the life of long-distance sea drifting, and their adaptability is much better than yours, so you are the most affected among all people." Jiang Peijiu said, "This is a good thing and a bad thing. Fortunately, the more People who are easily affected can more keenly locate the source of abnormalities. The bad thing is that if the impact is too great, I worry that you will have a mental breakdown or even other physical discomforts during the search process. This is very important for underwater operations. It’s particularly deadly.”
"I don't have much of a problem, it's just a nightmare. It won't delay the mission." After hearing Jiang Peijiu's words, Jiude Aki perked up slightly, raised his eyelids and looked at the young female professor in front of him and said seriously.
"Professor, you only gave one answer... If my guess is right, after using science to explain it, it should be metaphysics' turn, right?" Ye Sheng asked.
"Ye Sheng, did anyone tell you that it would be annoying for others to guess you so accurately?" Jiang Peijiu looked at Ye Sheng and said with a smile.
"...I'm sorry?" Ye Sheng was a little confused, thinking that he had said something wrong and made the professor hate him.
"You're kidding." Jiang Peijiu shook her head, "The second answer is actually the same as the first one in a sense. The long vibration wave and particle flow causing collective nightmares can be explained scientifically, but thirty Three crew members had the same type of nightmare and dreamed of the same thing. This is obviously not something that science can justify. This situation reminds me of another phenomenon... Ye Sheng, if it were you You should be able to guess what I want to say, right?"
"Spiritual vision." Ye Sheng replied.
"I've seen your files at Norma's. You got an 'A' in Dragon Literature. Naturally, you are no stranger to the process of spiritual vision. After all, those students in the Dragon Literature Department are immersed in the dead words of the Dragon Clan every day. Suffering from the pain of spiritual vision, almost every time I read a book late at night, I would force myself to have a spiritual vision. This is also the reason why people from the Long Literature Department are the most diligent in going to the psychology department." Jiang Peijiu said, "I have observed this phenomenon and concluded that This kind of thing cannot be controlled by hybrids. Compared with a skill, it is more like a knee-jerk reaction. The college's 3E exam also takes advantage of this phenomenon by mixing Long Wen into the FBI. The interrogation recording allows students to have psychic visions for blood screening, and people without blood cannot even cheat because they have no idea how the exam is conducted."
"Actually, songs are played in the 3E exam now. Some students said that the beating and screaming part of the interrogation recording would obscure Long Wen's record of affecting his spiritual vision." Ye Sheng coughed lightly.
"Yeah, it seems that I am out of date, but compared to the songs, I still think that playing the interrogation recording is more in line with the style of the military fortress of Kassel College." Jiang Peijiu smiled nonchalantly, "In short, this is the truth."
"What does the professor mean...last night on the Monyach, my crew and I were forced to have a spiritual vision?" The captain also understood what the female professor was trying to explain, and his face There was something slightly creepy about it.
"A collective spiritual vision." Jiang Peijiu nodded, "If you have studied Feng Shui in depth and analyzed some cases, you will naturally know that there were not many such examples in the past. People in a village went crazy and killed each other, or An army disappeared after accidentally entering a cave. A few years later, everyone was found dead only twenty meters away from the cave exit. The cause of death was that they all starved to death. They knelt down before death. A pious face in front of a huge mural... In these cases, each group is suspected of experiencing the phenomenon of collective spiritual vision. The village went crazy because of the spiritual pollution caused by the falling dragon in Yingchuan, and the death of the army in the cave was Because the cave paintings contain the power of words and spirits that can influence ordinary people... In fact, to use more modern terms, these phenomena are the so-called 'group hypnosis'!"
"But Professor, we just came to this area of water yesterday, and we haven't seen anything related to Longwen until now. How could we fall into spiritual vision?" Shutoku Aki asked hesitantly.
"...Aki, have we really never met before?" Jiang Peijiu looked at the girl and asked. Jiude Aki was stunned. She looked at the professor but found that his eyes slowly moved away from the side of the ship. , as her eyes moved, Shutoku Aki gradually looked away from the boat to the vast surrounding mountains and rivers. After seeing this magnificent geographical location and hydrology, she suddenly realized something, and her expression became horrified.
"...We have indeed seen it before." Next to Ya Ji, Ye Sheng, who also woke up, whispered, "What is related to dragons is the entire body of water in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River!"
The green water, rivers and mountains reflected in Jiang Peijiu's eyes couldn't be more beautiful. In everyone's eyes, the originally beautiful green mountains and rivers seemed to be covered with a layer of fog that made it difficult to see. In the fog, the bronze temple was hazy, and the huge dragon shadow Chuo Chuo.
"Start preparing the underground cavity detector and dive work. Notify the headquarters that we may have found what they want... You can ask the principal to start the recall of 'personnel', as well as more 'back-up' preparations. It’s starting to get put on the schedule.”
