Rebel Demon King

Chapter 1270 Ragnarok of the Gods (48)

Cheng Mo supported the apple tree and stood up straight, and suddenly found that there was no pain in his whole body.He lowered his head and saw that the bloody wound at the hole in the T-shirt had healed, leaving only messy bloodstains and a centipede-shaped scar.And those bruises and muscle soreness suffered in the maze, all disappeared without a trace.His previously bruised elbows and knees were as good as ever.But just now, he was exhausted and even his life was passing away, and his body was full of high-spirited vitality.It's like an athlete who has adjusted to the best condition, and there is a sense of excitement that he wants to go on the field immediately and compete with his opponent.

Seeing that Li Jiting had already walked down the gentle slope, he quickened his pace to keep up, walked down the gentle slope on the carpet-like grass, walked through the vibrant garden path, and walked to the towering white jade spire.

The circular corridor is full of arches and openings composed of ancient Roman columns. The white marble is as clean as jade, and there is no trace of erosion by the years.

"Come here." Li Jiting stood under the steps of the tower and waved to Cheng Mo.

Cheng Mo walked over according to his words, and then floated up out of thin air, soaring up like a fully transparent sightseeing elevator.The last two were hanging on the third to last floor.At this time, the moonlight and starlight were already within reach. He looked around, and he had a panoramic view of the majestic temple, the virgin forest-like garden, the vast grassland where dinosaurs were running, and the entire Garden of Eden.

Li Jiting stepped on the railing and jumped into the corridor with ease, and pushed open the white-painted wooden door in front of him.

Cheng Mo followed Li Jiting's example and jumped into the corridor silently.Two wall lamps hang on both sides of the colonnade, illuminating the shadows of two people intertwined.Li Jiting walked into the room, he stopped at the door very politely, and did not follow in immediately.

When Li Jiting turned on the ceiling light, he looked back at Cheng Mo, "Come in. There's nothing you can't see."

After getting the promise, Cheng Mo entered the room, closed the door smoothly, and at the same time, he looked around the circular room in front of him.The room at the top of the tower was small in size, and it was much simpler than he imagined, with almost no furniture.The arched windows were open on all sides.There is a balcony facing the direction of the temple. It is said that the balcony is actually a section of the corridor of the tower. The moonlight shines in from that direction, like an arch covered with frosting.Not only the light, but also the wind pouring in from the balcony and windows, the room is filled with fresh, cool air with a faint floral fragrance, and you can hear the cracking sound of fruits falling to the ground from time to time and the flying of pterosaurs while holding your breath The wind in the sky makes the ears not so lonely and boring.

Looking out from the room, the scenery is very beautiful. Standing at the door, you can see the pyramid-like roof of the temple and the moon like a silver plate.But the facilities in the room are extremely simple, not to mention it looks like a god's residence, it can't even be regarded as the residence of nobles or rich people.The floor is covered with black and white checkered floor tiles. Except for a wooden bed in the center, there is only a log-colored mahogany wardrobe, a bedside table of the same style, and a purple velvet-covered easy chair in the whole room.An easy chair is placed on the balcony, and there is also a small table with a vinyl record player on it. It looks like a European-style nursing home room for a widowed old man without children.

Cheng Mo was blowing the cool evening breeze, looking at the full moon and the sharp golden dome within reach, he felt so cold at the height, he suddenly felt that the more beautiful the scenery he could see, the more he felt The room at the top of the tower grew lonely.

Like an eagle's nest on a cliff.

Cheng Mo heard the sound of wood rubbing, turned his head and saw Li Jiting walked to the bedside table and opened the drawer.He looked intently, and there was an uncovered gold pocket watch in the drawer, with Greek numerals written on the surface of the pocket watch, and the hands stopped at 35:[-]:[-].There are also a few books randomly placed inside, one is "Das Kapital", one is "The Origin of Species", one is "On the Nature of Things", and one is "The Theory of Relativity and Space Problems", all of which are seriously worn , and a brand new book with a black cover, Li Jiting took out the book with a black cover.

Because of the angle, Cheng Mo couldn't see the name of the book clearly for a while.When Li Jiting handed the book to him, he could see clearly that the large piece of black inlaid with sparse white dots in the middle of the cover was like a universe, and several colored DNA helices were entangled and rotated in the universe. The title of the book on the top of the DNA helix - "human origin", and the bottom of the cover is the father's name - Yongze Cheng.

Cheng Mo forgot everything, and his eyes couldn't move away from the bland cover of this book at all, as if he finally came to the treasure chest guarded by the dragon, and this treasure chest is a blind box, you don't know what happened after opening it. , what is hidden inside is a huge surprise, or a huge horror.

He involuntarily opened his eyes wide, held his breath, and impatiently reached out and grabbed the book that had appeared countless times in his dreams, and was about to pull the book over with all his strength.However, there was a slight tearing sound from the thin cover, but the book remained motionless in mid-air.He immediately raised his head and looked at Li Jiting blankly, as if all these actions were driven by a blank mind, without any thought.

Li Jiting pinched the upper right corner of the book, and stared at Cheng Mo with deep and quiet eyes like ancient fossils sealed deep in the glacier, "After reading it, there is really no turning back."

Cheng Mo came back to his senses and rolled his dry throat. He felt that there was a flame burning in his chest. This flame burned his internal organs and burned him to ashes. Only by opening the book in front of him can it be extinguished A fire burning in his heart.He said without thinking: "I never intend to look back."

"Then be mentally prepared." Li Jiting said solemnly.

Cheng Mo realized that he seemed to be acting too obviously. He had never lost his composure in so many years. Even in the face of extreme dangers, he could deal with them calmly. He did not expect that when he saw his father's book, he would be completely shocked. There is no way to restrain desire and curiosity, probably this is the temptation of "morning and evening death".He held the oblique corner of the spine of the book, closed his eyes, took a deep breath, let out another breath, and nodded to Li Jiting, "I'm mentally prepared."

Li Jiting let go of his hand.

Cheng Mo hurriedly held the book in his hands, slammed his mouth again, swallowed nervously, moistened his burning throat and chest, and quickly opened the first page under the yellowing light.He didn't even bother to find a place to sit, so he stood by the bed and lowered his head to look at those words intently, as if those words had some incredible magic power.

"Introduction: In fact, I have been hesitant to write this book. The reason for not writing it is that this book is too heavy-not only spiritually, but also physically. Doubt, which makes people fall into a desperate situation of self-knowledge, will also pull the trigger on me; the reason for writing is that someone has to say all this, so that human beings know where they come from and where they are going.”

Cheng Mo's heart was gripped by his father's words, and the image of his father writing under the lamp with a dignified expression appeared in his mind.But he didn't stop reading because of this deep sentimentality, and the strong desire drove him to browse without stopping for a second to remember something.

"The latter is a question I can't answer, the former happens to be something I've been working on as an anthropologist. When I went to Ilak as a historian, I saw the great and glorious Sumerian artifacts , was deeply moved by these beautiful things. So I stayed in Mesopotamia many times, and studied the connection between the oldest human civilization and modern civilization. There I met an expert who studied Sumerian civilization—— Mr. Zechariah Celery, and became a close friend with him. Later, under his reminder, I went to the Lascaux Cave in the south of France, and admired the horses, bulls, reindeer and other animals jumping and running on the walls. These patterns come from the creation of humans at the end of the Ice Age 17000 years ago. After visiting the Egyptian pyramids, I did fieldwork along the Nile River and wanted to know how the ancient Egyptians in 700 BC built beyond The miraculous architecture of the era. I am very glad that Mr. Xiqin and I have entered the inside of the forbidden pyramid with the help of a mysterious person. Unfortunately, we have not been able to reach the most central location, but we have also discovered the incredible The secret, no matter how you look at it, it is not a pharaoh's tomb, but has a magical use that humans did not expect. I have also studied one of the oldest human characters, the Hebrew alphabet, which is written by the Youtai people. The text of "Sacred Classics" wonderfully responds to the double helix structure of human DNA. There is an incredible similarity between the 22 Hebrew letters and the 22 chromosomes. I vaguely feel the hidden relationship among them, those hidden in Some facts in mythology, history, classics, architecture and cultural relics fascinate me. Just as the following chapters of this book try to clarify the context of human beings from birth to development, and put forward some explanations for the origin of human beings. I My teacher said that I overturned the "Origin of Species". I don't think that's the case. Humans are special existences beyond other species on the earth. The difference between us and other species is that we have intelligence. How do humans generate intelligence? This question is For thousands of years, countless philosophers, scientists, and theologians have wanted to study one of the ultimate questions, and it is also a question that "The Origin of Species" cannot explain."

Just looking at the "Introduction", Cheng tacitly believes that his father should have discovered evidence of the "alien origin theory", but this is not a particularly novel theory, and he should not encounter death threats.The curiosity in his heart became more and more intense, and he flipped through the ten lines at a glance.

Chapter 1 begins with the origin of life on Earth and continues until the extinction of the dinosaurs.In Chapter 1, my father overturned the meteorite extinction theory of dinosaurs with detailed information and demonstrations, and deduced that the extinction of dinosaurs was a selective extinction based on the continuation of birds, snapping turtles, crocodiles and some plants, because as the earth The overlord not only cannot produce intelligence, but also prevents the earth from producing intelligent creatures.
The first chapter of Chapter 1 made Cheng Mo's scalp tingle. He speeded up and swallowed chapter after chapter. When he saw his father trying to clarify the relationship between the three, he immediately felt a sense of suffocation that was so depressing and terrifying.

These contents overwhelmed him like a muddy torrent, causing him to struggle in the vortex of history, not knowing where he would end up, whether it was the Jedi of death, or what tree trunk he could hold on to.He really can't bear this uncontrollable sense of fear, just like you are watching a horror movie that you can't help yourself, you have completely lost the courage to continue watching, but you want to know the ending, so you choose to skip the middle The process, let everything end as soon as possible.

This feeling of not knowing when the fear will come is the most tormenting, and it is better to give people a good time.Even though what Cheng Mo hates most when reading a book is to read the ending without looking at the content, but at this moment, he can no longer suppress the urge to seek answers, and turned the book to the last chapter.

This section is only one page.

The title is very long, and it is a sentence from the "Dead Sea Scrolls": Human beings do not know the mysteries of the future, nor do they know the ancient things of the past.They don't know what's going to happen to them.They don't save their souls for the future.

There are only a few sentences in the following text, which can be scanned to the end with a few glances.

However, these few words were like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, spiraling up from his ankles, climbing up his waist, climbing up his neck, getting into his unclosable mouth, and crawling inward. After entering it, his hair stood on end, watching the snake go in in horror, his brain was trembling, but he was powerless
Cheng Mo felt weak all over, and fell down on the bed, throwing away the book in his hand like a hot potato.He was breathing heavily, his eyes staring blankly at the void, as if he was watching something terrible floating around in his eyes.

He didn't know how long he had been sitting there, but he felt a breeze blowing by. Even though the curtain beside the bed hadn't moved, he still felt the bone-chilling chill after the sweat all over his body was dried by the cold wind.

"How do you feel?" Li Jiting asked a little proudly, the laughter contained the pleasure of a successful prank, but also a little unspeakable bitterness.

Cheng Mo didn't answer immediately, but closed his eyes, calmed down his arrhythmia, and said with a wry smile: "I can only say that my father's death is not wronged."

"Actually, your father wrote this book, so he died a worthy death." Li Jiting said, "It's just a pity that your mother couldn't be rescued."

"What about my mother?" Cheng Mo asked.
