Chapter 1 Alien Stone
The alarm ring on the bedside phone rings for a long time, and his master Meng Fan lazily reached out and pressed the phone, but fell asleep again. It turned out that he was having a spring dream? The girl in the dream was young and beautiful. He was anxiously taking off her clothes, but she couldn't take them off. After finally taking off her naked, the alarm rings.
"Oh my God! I'm going to be late." Meng Fan hurriedly jumped up from the bed naked, put on his clothes quickly, and didn't even care about washing his face, so he pushed the electric car out. Meng Fan is twenty-two years old this year and is a worker at a machine tool factory in Linhai County. His main job is to mark the parts of the machine tool and mark them so that the next process will be hit. He lives a repetitive and boring life every day, and receives a not-so-high salary.
Although sometimes I feel bored, I can’t do anything for my livelihood. Meng Fan remembers that when he was a child, he wrote about his dreams. He wanted to be an astronaut and traveled in space when he grew up. But now he can only sit in front of the TV honestly and watch Yang Liwei and others fly into space on a spaceship.
Just ordinary, but he is still a person with dreams. He didn't get into a big school, so he thought about applying for self-study exams. Although he was a worker, he thought about becoming a boss in the future. "I, Meng Fan, will never be ordinary all my life!" He always thought so.
He brought breakfast to the factory and was discovered by the hateful supervisor again. Wouldn't it be enough to just warn him verbally? He had to be fined ten yuan. "It's really Zhou Basi!" He muttered, but he went to work obediently.
"Hey! Let me tell you a super terrifying news, don't be scared!" The gossip man Wu Hainan ran over and put his mouth to him and told him the gossip news that he got from nowhere.
"Go and go, where did you get the news again? Two months ago, you swear that there was an earthquake here. Mingzhu was so scared that she didn't dare to sleep at home at night. As a result, two months passed. Did your earthquake hit Japan?"
"You can't say it. Japan was really shaking two days ago. Humph! Shock it hard! Kill these turtle bastards to death." Wu Hainan looked like a little angry young man.
"Stop coming. If you are in trouble, you are still happy like this. Look at your virtue. But then again, I am not angry with the Japanese. Tell me that we always call our Diaoyu Islands theirs. Humph! We were defeated in World War II and were still so arrogant. Isn't it just to rely on the support of the Americans?" Meng Fan also whispered a few words, "Hey! Do you have something to do? I still have to work. I have to earn the ten dollars to fine me quickly!"
"Oh! Look, it's all because of you that you have drawn the topic far. I got a very accurate message, or did I get it from my uncle-in-law of the Academy of Sciences?" Wu Hainan said and looked around nervously, making it look like an underground party.
"Okay, okay, just say it if you want to say it, and don't say it, what are you doing? This is! You say it's the exact news every time, and you haven't seen any time it's true."
"But this time it's really possible. My cousin told me to keep it secret." Wu Hainan looked around nervously again, then continued: "My cousin, well, he said that there is an asteroid one-fifth of the size of the moon approaching the earth at a speed close to the speed of light. Astronomical experts have calculated that this asteroid will hit the earth."
"What happens if you hit it?"
"What else? I haven't watched a science and education film. Dinosaurs were extinct 65 million years ago because an asteroid hit the earth. This time, if humans are not done well, they will be gone?"
Meng Fan suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, I already know the secret you told. Go and do whatever you should do. If it is difficult to work, I don't know if humans will be gone. I will definitely lose your bonus this month. I dare to guarantee it."
Seeing that Meng Fan didn't believe it, Wu Hainan was unwilling to give up and was unwilling to whisper: "Really, this is what my cousin finally found out. He asked me to prepare more food, rice, oil and salt as soon as possible, and said that once that time, these things will become treasures. Really, you must believe me this time, and I don't think it's true!"
Although Meng Fan didn't believe this was true, he suddenly had an ominous premonition when he got off work. His premonition was sometimes very effective. When his grandfather passed away, he saw a long meteor passing across the sky, and he had an ominous premonition. As a result, when he returned home, his grandfather really had to leave him forever----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"No, this time it's really the same as 'Wolf'!" Meng Fan patted his head and said to himself: "If there is really a day, it's not something I can change. So I should eat, sleep, and hope I can dream of that girl tonight." He laughed happily.
When I got home, I didn't contact my old classmate Di for a long time and suddenly called: "Hey, Meng Fan? I am the Emperor Zhou!" Emperor Zhou, Meng Fan suddenly remembered this interesting classmate. When he was in a vocational and technical college, they were good friends who could talk about everything. The Emperor Zhou's name was very interesting. It is said that he was specially asked for fortune tellers. The fortune teller said that he was born with the founding emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, King Wu, so he gave the name of Emperor Zhou. Do you think it is interesting or not?
"Emperor, I haven't called for so long. I wonder what kind of expensive things are there for me today?" Meng Fan liked to talk to him like this when he was in school, calling him the emperor and calling himself a subject.
"Oh! Meng Fan, I really have something important! There is no one around you!"
"Well! I'm at home, and there are no outsiders!"
"That's good. First of all, I have to say that this is really not gossip news. I have received reliable news that an asteroid will hit the earth in ten days, which may bring endless disasters to mankind."
"What?" Meng Fan was shocked and thought to himself that Emperor Zhou was not a gossiper.
"Why do you say that too? It's not like hearing, right?" Meng Fan asked.
"No, don't forget what my father does. He is a general of the missile force. He told me that the country is fully deploying missile interception plans with the United States, Russia and other major powers. But the asteroid is too fast, so the hope of being able to stop is very slim."
"Is this really true?" Meng Fan also began to be confused.
After two days, the news flew away. A single asteroid hit the earth and prices soared like a second kick that had fired. Meng Fan had to squeeze in the crowd to buy oil noodles and other daily necessities.
But the government quickly came forward to clarify the facts. The relevant news was being reported on TV and radio, saying that an asteroid was indeed flying towards the Earth at a high speed, but whether it could hit the Earth needs further calculations. Even if it hits, the country will unite and use the most advanced missile interception technology to intercept. The losses caused will be predictable and controllable, so don’t panic and maintain normal living order.
For a time, the people were like a blowout, and there were many different opinions. Some people said that the government was giving everyone a relief pill. The municipal party committee even prepared the helicopter and immediately ran away whenever there was something. Some people said that they could slip out of the earth, and would they go to Mars to take refuge? Some people said that they should believe in the government's capabilities. We are in a panic. If the disaster really does not come, we will be scared to death. Do you think it is wronged or not? Some people said that living one day is counting as long as you are panic. I am still happy with myself. What planets do I care about?
Some cults even stood up and said that the current problem is because God is dissatisfied with the current government's incompetence, so they have brought disasters to the world. If you want to solve the disaster, you can only join my teachings. Isn't this causing trouble? Natural disasters are natural disasters. How can you associate them so much?
On the third day, the government began to use force, and a large number of vendors who took the opportunity to raise prices were arrested, and those who issued fallacies were severely suppressed, so Linhai County temporarily returned to peace.
At this time, the situation in the whole world was probably similar to that in Linhai County. Of course, some poor countries had to be excluded. They had no ability to stabilize the situation and could only let them go.
The news also began to broadcast some processes, saying that the asteroid had arrived, and although the sex was temporarily calm on the surface, they were still talking in private, and their hearts were already hanging in their throats. No one had ever seen the end of the world and the end of the world. How big will the next disaster be?
Like many people, Meng Fan did not have the heart to go to work? But he is a person with inertia of thinking. If he doesn't go to work, why don't he know what he is going to do? So like most people, he still goes to work every day, but his mind is no longer at work and often gathers together to discuss.
"You said Wu Hainan, you predicted so many things, and everything is not accurate at all. Why did you just hit you right this time?"
"What does it mean to hit me right? I have a source. Can I talk nonsense about things that have no source?"
At this time, Mingzhu also came over. Mingzhu is a girl, 21 years old this year, and her surname is relatively rare. At the beginning, Meng Fan thought this was her nickname?
"Do you think if this asteroid really hits the earth, it will bring great disaster?"
"This is not accurate." Meng Fan expressed his opinion: "The key is whether the government's interception can be successful. If it is successful, maybe there will be no disaster?"
"Hmph! I'm looking at it." Wu Hainan's spits were about to fly out: "If something really won't happen, why didn't the government come out early to clarify it? Why didn't it explain the situation to the people at the beginning? Such a large asteroid has not been flying in the universe for a day or two. Now that technology is so developed, it's impossible that it has just been discovered, right?"
Meng Fan had to admit that what he said made sense, but we are all ordinary people. How much benefit can we do if we know in addition to increasing our fear in advance?
Wu Hainan continued to make his big talk: "I think once you really hit it, it will be a planetary disaster. I wonder how many people will die. Think about it, if you hit the ocean, the sea water will not fly to the land. Now the world is warming, the sea water rises, and many islands are facing the danger of disappearing. If you do this for a while, hum! But okay, don't run away from any of the little Japanese and the others, all of them will be finished." This guy was so angry that he even came out when he mentioned the Japanese and swearing in front of the girl.
"What's good! After they finish playing, how many can we have left? We can't hold the idea of burning all the jade! Human beings should face danger together, rather than destruction together." Meng Fan said calmly: "I still hope that all this will not happen. Although my life is boring, at least I still have dreams. If there is dream, there is hope. If it is really as you said, life cannot be guaranteed, and dreams will be even more vague."
All three of them were silent. After all, no one wanted to see such a thing.
But the danger that should come will not change with the subjective will of mankind. The idealistic person may say, if I close my eyes and pretend that nothing can be seen, everything will not happen. But the earth will not stop turning because of the will of mankind. This day will still come unavoidably.
All forms of life have their beginnings and ends. Only the total amount of matter and energy is always in balance. Therefore, we have reason to believe that if one day the human beings on the earth really become extinct, they will be reborn in some place in the universe.
On the ninth day, the government issued an announcement through television and radio again. The great national leader Lu Heping personally spoke: "I regret to tell all Chinese people that all our efforts to prevent asteroids from hitting the earth will eventually end in failure. We can only intercept a small number of stars, and most of the asteroid wreckage will crash into the Pacific Ocean in 47 hours, 28 minutes and 19 seconds. On December 21, 2012, the world will face disaster."
