After returning from Tibet, I have been thinking about a question: is this dispute a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?
Viruses have co-existed with humans for a long time, but once the balance is not grasped, it will cause immeasurable terrible consequences. A long time ago, the ancient Tibetan religion may have discovered a unique virus in Tibet and developed a terrible "weapon".
But I think what should be reflected more is actually human beings. I recently saw a piece of news. Blood-red snow appeared in Antarctica, and 28 new viruses were discovered on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
Disasters threatening the whole world are occurring.
It’s hard to imagine that the ice-covered Antarctic could have a temperature of 20.8°C. Since meteorological records began in 1880, the temperature in Antarctica exceeded 20°C for the first time. In our understanding, the annual average temperature in Antarctica is minus 25°C, which is not a stretch.
It is an "extremely cold place". However, the once "extremely cold place" has also begun to "heat up". It has even begun to "bleed". Around the Vernadsky Research Base in Ukraine,
A rare scene occurred: The originally white snowfield turned into patches of blood-red.
Bloody streaks embedded in the ice.
In fact, the reason why snow turns red is because of the invasion of a red algae called "Snow Chlamydomonas." However, this red algae will only multiply after the climate warms. In other words,
The reappearance of large-scale "blood snow" in Antarctica has fully demonstrated that the temperature here is gradually rising. It is worth noting that a large amount of "blood snow" can significantly reduce the reflection of sunlight by ice and snow, thereby aggravating the warming of ice and snow, making it more
Too much algae wakes up, and then falls into a vicious cycle.
As the ice becomes thinner, penguin eggs and chicks often fall into ice caves and die. Because their habitats are severely damaged, penguins have to find new homes. Now, Antarctica has broken 20 degrees Celsius for the first time, and the situation in the Arctic is even worse.
Polar bears have no ice floes and cannot hunt. They are extremely hungry and can only look for food in places where humans live. In order to gain living space, hundreds of thousands of walruses can only migrate. Sometimes, they finally climb up the cliff, but the next second they are gone.
Unfortunately, they fell to death. The ice in late winter and early spring became thinner and thinner, making it difficult for female seals to give birth as scheduled. Some baby seals, less than 12 days old, fell into the ice prematurely and died.
"It's none of your business, just leave it alone" is regarded by many people as a guideline for life. However, they don't know that if the nest is overturned, how can the eggs be intact?
Melting glaciers will release many frozen viruses. In ice core samples extracted from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the genetic information of 33 different viruses was found, once again confirming the evidence of the existence of ancient viruses. Among these 33 viruses
Among them, 28 are new viruses that have never been recorded before.
Once environmental and temperature conditions permit, these viruses frozen in glaciers will become active again, multiply, spread and even mutate.
There has been such a lesson in history. In August 2016, an anthrax epidemic broke out in the Yamal Peninsula of Siberia. Investigations found that climate warming prompted the permafrost to thaw, and Bacillus anthracis, which had been absent in this area for 75 years, made a comeback.
"Lin Kun, I'm going back. Nice to meet you." Ella smiled and said to me. After returning to Yuling, we chatted very well. Half a month passed and it was time to say goodbye.
"Ella, go back and say hello to Mike for me." I smiled.
Laughing, after all, it was fate. "Light of the Dead Sea" has done me a big favor this time. This international friendship is still very precious.
"Why, do you want to drive me away so soon?" Ella smiled slyly.
"Don't make fun of me. Thanks to you for helping us during this period. Based on the gene sequence you provided, we not only successfully isolated virus plants from those sick bodies, but also detected antibodies from Cut Bazi."
"Congratulations then!"
"I am a person who keeps my promises. You and I and Xu Qian have made promises. After everything is done, we will each get what we need. I think what you really want is this antibody."
Ella nodded, "But it depends on you. Compared to the friendship between us, completing the task is not that important, because this antibody is more meaningful in your hands."
"Medicine has no national boundaries. This thing should belong to all mankind. Sister Qi has publicly published this antibody through her channels, so that all mankind can benefit."
"I have to admit that Si Weiqi is the most outstanding woman I have ever seen. She is amazing."
"That's not all I want to say. Did you know that we also found a new virus in the strange baby? If I am not mistaken, this may be the real secret of Soul-Transferring Kasyapa."
"It's so scary. The tiniest microorganisms are the most dangerous weapons." Ella shook her head. "After this time, I also had a profound enlightenment. I decided to become a volunteer to protect this beautiful planet."
"Oh?" Ella's decision was unexpected, but admirable.
"I have convinced Mike to come with me." Ella smiled, "He didn't agree at first, you know, but then I threatened him, saying that if he didn't agree, I would not leave in China, hahaha, and then
He got jealous and came early the next morning to admit his mistake!"
I chuckled. This foreigner spoke directly and without any subtlety. Even if he was joking, he didn't have to be so straightforward. This made me feel embarrassed.
After bidding farewell to Ella, everything seemed to be back to square one.
Long time flows slowly in the ancient Yuling Mausoleum.
Originally, I would live a very peaceful life for the next period of time, planting fields and watering the garden during the day, and holding and breastfeeding my baby at night. I have a lovely wife and beautiful family at home, and I live a happy and carefree life without thinking about worldly troubles.
But things in the world are unpredictable and always difficult to predict.
Tomb robbing has been around for a long time. After the social changes of the Spring and Autumn Period, when "rituals and music collapsed", the trend of extravagant burials arose, so tomb robbing became more and more popular. With the development and growth of the industry, there are also differences in the standards of conduct within the industry.
Gradually divided into different schools.
As everyone knows, there are four major sects in tomb robbing. The sentence "Faqiu to touch gold, move mountains and unload ridges" explains these four major sects. Among them, the two sects of Faqiu and Mojin have the same origin. They were Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period.
An official position established specifically for tomb robbing.
Over the past dynasties, these four sects have had their ups and downs. Until now, apart from moving mountains and unloading ridges to make a living in the rivers and lakes and barely surviving, they have almost disappeared from the rivers and lakes. The main reason why the sects of Jinmen are in decline is because they have no successors and the authentic ones have no successors.
The captains of the Mojin School were all passed down from their masters and apprentices, so it was difficult for them to flourish. After liberation, it became even more difficult for them to flourish.
Although one branch has not completely disappeared, its main business has been "cleaned up" a lot, and it rarely gets involved in the affairs of the world.
Speaking of Faqiu Zhonglang, we must naturally mention Cheng Yiyun. As the eldest lady of the Cheng family, she single-handedly controls the entire Faqiu Sect, and she is also the last glory of the Faqiu Sect.
Faqiu Zhonglang will be amazed by his unique physiological structure. It is said that the index finger and middle finger of Faqiu Tianguan's right hand are extremely long, and the unique skill of exploring caves with two fingers is his special skill. Compared with Faqiu Tianguan,
Touching the gold captain, there is only one more copper seal. The seal on the hair mound is engraved with the words "Blessings from hundreds of officials, no taboos". It is said that all ghosts and gods can be avoided with a seal in the hand. In a high-risk industry such as tomb robbing, it is absolutely
It is an irreplaceable sacred object, but it is said that it was destroyed during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty and no longer exists.
During the Three Kingdoms period, in order to supplement military pay, Cao Cao came up with a dirty trick, which was to rob tombs. For this purpose, he set up two positions for his army, namely, Faqiu Zhonglang General and Mojin Xiaowei. This should be the most authentic in history.
When officials committed robberies, they usually gathered a large number of soldiers and fought with open fire. It can be said that no grass grew in the tombs they passed. It was not until later that Faqiu and Mojin really developed their own set of tomb robbing methods, and gradually formed a school.
Faqiu Zhonglang is actually not much different from Mojin Xiaowei. After all, they are from the same source. His method mainly uses the stars and celestial phenomena to determine the location of the tomb, and then excavates, but the craftsmanship is better than Mojin Xiaowei.
It's a bit trendy, and the rules don't touch as much as Colonel Jin. The public identity of General Faqiu is usually an antique dealer or pawn shop owner, and he won't take action easily. Only large mausoleums will arouse his interest.
The Mojin Xiaowei are the most orthodox group of tomb robbers passed down from the late Eastern Han Dynasty. They have unique skills, such as "Looking for the Dragon" and "Dividing Gold to Fix the Cave", etc., which can accurately find the location of the tomb. Mojin Xiaowei
It has the most complicated sect rules and incisions, but there is no formal master-disciple inheritance relationship. They are generally referred to as peers. As long as they understand the terminology of the industry and have the orthodox gold-touching talisman, they are all considered as gold-touching captains. The gold-touching captain is also only
When it comes to large tombs, the location of large tombs is generally very regular and requires a very good terrain. Therefore, it is very simple to find the large tomb with Jin Xiaowei's astrological knowledge.
I didn't expect that my next encounter would be related to the Cheng family of Faqiumen.
The person who has always been really in charge of the Cheng family of the Faqiu clan is Cheng Yiyun. As the eldest daughter of the Cheng family, Cheng Yiyun has always been in charge of the affairs of the Faqiu clan, while her father, Cheng Yuming, mainly manages the Cheng family's industry.
One is face, the other is lizi.
But now Cheng Yiyun is encountering a difficult problem. She has lost her memory and is in a state of isolation from the leadership of Faqiu Sect. Cheng Yuming has given Cheng Yiyun full power to take care of the affairs of the sect, so it is difficult for him to pick two sides at the same time.
A few months ago, Yu Ling received a letter from the Cheng family. The reason why he contacted us in this way was probably because the matter was not urgent at the time, and it was in line with the rules to have someone deliver it, and it would not disturb the dignity of the family.
But it was because of this that it took a lot of trouble and time, which led to things getting out of hand.
The story is probably that Cheng Yuming's second daughter, Cheng Xiaojie, accidentally fainted during a temple fair and then fell ill. Cheng Yuming called in countless famous doctors, but they couldn't diagnose the cause. Later, he encountered a series of strange things.
