Chapter 1244 Our own Bedstories.
“The Tunguska Explosion? Gosh, I was wondering why the name sounded so familiar. So that’s the reason ” Gu Nianzhi took out her phone and searched for it.There were many news articles and explanations online, but many of them had been reproduced from the same article, so they all looked the same.
“An explosion more than a hundred years ago was as powerful as 20 million tons of TNT. Wow, was too powerful. There hadn’t been an atomic bomb back then, so how could there have been such a powerful explosion? ” Gu Nianzhi astonished.
“Tens of millions of trees within more than 2,000 square kilometers were burned and charred. The way they fell was very strange. They all pointed to a center, just like the crop circles of later generations. ”
When seeing that Gu Nianzhi was surprised, “Haven’t the crop circles been proved to be man-made, not a natural phenomenon? ”
The ancestors of counterfeiting in the modern sense were actually the people of Great Britain. because they had been faking it for a long time since they were the first countries to industrialize. With the advent of industrialization, counterfeiting also appeared on a large scale. For example, the crop circle, which is closely related to the first industrial revolution, first appeared at that time.
But unfortunately, under the malicious propaganda of the West countries, the Chinese Empire, which had fallen from its peak and risen again, became the birthplace of counterfeiting.
Huo Shaoheng put all his clothes back into the box and locked it as he said, “What would the situation have been if the Tunguska explosion was man-made.”
“That… was improssible, right? ” Gu Nianzhi continued to read, she said in surprise, “I can’t believe that the whole of Europe, and even parts of Asia, were feeling the explosion at the time. Thankfully, it was in the uninhabited Tunguska region of Siberia. If it had been in a place with more people, it would have been much worse.”
“There are so many hypothesises about the exact cause? ” Gu Nianzhi read the information she was seeing to Huo Shaoheng, “Some people think it was a comet impact. Well, that’s the prevailing view in the academic world now. Some people still think it was an alien s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p impact, and some hold the view that it was a small black hole that was pa.s.sing through the Blue Planet at that time… Tsk, such imagination. Are they really scientists? Not science fiction writers? ”
Huo Shaoheng smiled and turned around, “You can discuss the topic with Ms. Song. ”
“Ms. Song is so professional. I’m only qualified to read popular science books. ” Gu Nianzhi laughed, “Well, there’s even a fanciful explanation here. It says it’s antimatter. With the collisions of protons and antiprotons, Bang! Everything melted into air. It’s just like the words in the Bible, ‘Dust to dusts, dirt to dirts, ash to ashes’ ! ”
Huo Shaoheng stood up and turned around. “See, that’s related to high-energy physics.”
” … Do you mean antimatter? ” Gu Nianzhi frowned. “If it really was because of antimatter, then it’s really possible to cause this much damage. ”
It was said that when half a gram of iron and half a gram of “anti-iron” collided, the power of the explosion was equivalent to the power of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiros.h.i.+ma.
“Yes, if that’s the case, then the power of the Tunguska explosion is equivalent to 1,000 atomic bombs, which is the power of 500 grams of “anti-iron” collision. ”
Gu Nianzhi frowned again. “But, antimatter can not exist in nature at all. ”
“Yes, antimatter can’t exist in nature, unless it’s in a specific laboratory environment, or there’s radioactive decay during nuclear research, or there’s an faint, fleeting antimatter detected in cosmic rays. ”
Huo Shaoheng seemed to be familiar with this point. He said, “Even if antimatter is produced in the laboratory, it can only appear in a very short period of time because it will inevitably collide with the laboratory utensils and be annihilated. ”
“When antimatter collides, the energy it will release is beyond your imagination. ”
“In front of it, even a nuclear weapon is just a piece of cake. ”
Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng suspiciously. “Why do you seem to know a lot about the sort of things? Don’t tell me they were the bedtime stories that Mrs. Song told you to coax you to sleep when you were young.”
“Of course not. Mrs. Song’s son is called ‘scientific research’ , and I was just a gift from her to pay for her phone bill. ” Huo Shaoheng was rarely humorous.
Gu Nianzhi’s heart ached when she heard this.
She put down her phone and walked over to hug huo Shaoheng’s waist. She leaned her head against his chest and said, “I’ll tell you bedtime stories from now on. ”
Huo Shaoheng was speechless.
He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips. He said hoa.r.s.ely, “Are you innocent? If you sleep with me, will I give you time to tell stories? ”
Gu Nianzhi: ” … ”
He had completely destroyed all the heartache and tenderness in her heart.
Gu Nianzhi pushed him away expressionlessly and tried to hold back the topic. ” … Are you so concerned about antimatter research because it’s related to weapons research in the military department? ”
Huo Shaoheng smiled but didn’t say anything. He picked up their luggage and said, “I need to buy you some overcoats against the cold before we go to Siberia. ”
Siberia was a vast area of northwest Russia. It spanned more than 10 million square kilometers, from the Ural Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, from the Arctic Ocean to Huck, and even part of the border with China.
Siberia had a Subfrigid coniferous climate. It was very cold, and there were at least seven months below freezing every year.
It was early May now, and it was slightly warmer. However, for Gu Nianzhi, who had grown up in C city in the south, it was still a very cold.
The only kind of clothing she had brought with her was just windbreaker, which was not enough to resist the cold winds of Siberia.
Gu Nianzhi followed Huo Shaoheng out of the hotel and saw the familiar jeep parked ostentatiously at the entrance of the hotel.
Vladimir, the furry second-in-command of the KGB, leaned against the car door.
The driver poked his head out of the car window and greeted them with a smile. “Cereus, where are you going? Vladimir and I will be your drivers and tour guides for free. We’ll send you anywhere you want to go! ”
Gu Nianzhi: ” … ”
Huo Shaoheng wasn’t surprised at all.
That was why he didn’t even call for a car. He was just waiting for the two of them to come to him.
In Russia, with the KGB’s escort, he didn’t have to worry about security.
It was so lucky to be hosted by KGB and President.
Huo Shaoheng unceremoniously opened the back door and said, “Sorry for disturbing you. Thank you for your hospitality. ”
“You’re welcome. Cereus and I are friends! ” The driver made a face at Gu Nianzhi. “Come, get in the car. ”
Gu Nianzhi smiled and followed Huo Shaoheng into the car.
Vladimir’s face darkened.
Da*n it!
Why did he feel like he was being used by Huo Shaoheng? !
After getting into the car, Vladimir’s face remained sullen and he did not say a word.
The chauffeur did not notice anything and happily chatted with Gu Nianzhi.
“Cereus, where are you going? ”
“I’m going to buy some overcoats to keep warm before going on a trip to Siberia. Is that right, Huo Shao? ” Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng replied with an “mm” and his expression was very calm and natural.
“To buy overcoats, ” Vladimir said sarcastically. “Then go to Gu Mu. ”
“Are you serious? ! ” The driver’s eyes widened. “It’s the most luxurious place in Russia! ”
“Gu Mu? ” Gu Nianzhi looked down at her phone and checked. “Its full name is Gu Mu National department store. Tsk, that’s actually a terrible name. ”
Although the name was tacky and terrible, it was the most luxurious shopping mall in Moscow, and even in the whole of Russia. There was a need for security checks before entering.
All the luxury brands of all blue star had flags.h.i.+p stores here, which truely reflected its grand scale.
When Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng got off the car, seeing the security check at the entrance,they were still struck by the surroundings.
Vladimir laughed strangely as he watched Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi walk into goom. “Hmph, let Major General Huo pay the bill, he deserves it. How dare he takes advantage of me.”
“Does he? Aren’t we watching them?” The driver was puzzled.
Vladimir felt depressedin his heart.
How did he have such thoughtless subordinates? !
