Chapter 997 Resonance
"Quickly start the sound wave resonance!" Liang Lu pointed the earth vein mixer at the altar. When the dragon and phoenix frequency was injected into the mountain, the ice layer made a sound like glass breaking, and the purple cracks began to heal in reverse. However, the leader of the archaeological team suddenly went crazy and rushed to the core of the altar with a laser cutter. At the critical moment, the little fox turned into a stream of light and knocked the cutter away, but he was shocked by the energy aftermath and vomited blood.
The battle lasted until dawn. Qi Tongwei bit his fingertips and pressed the blood on the "dragon eye" of the dragon and phoenix totem, and the ancient altar burst into golden light. The energy of the earth veins surged back on track like a tide, and the archaeological team members regained consciousness but lost all their memories. But their portable cameras accidentally recorded a shocking scene: the phantoms of dragons and phoenixes rose from the depths of the earth veins, picked up the purple cracks, and turned them into stars in the sky.
After the crisis, a global craze for protecting earth veins has swept across the world. The Ecological Museum has added a "Forbidden Land" exhibition area, displaying bronze fragments brought back from the Himalayas. Children wearing VR equipment can personally experience the wonderful feeling of resonating with the earth veins. Qi Tongwei wrote in "Notes on Earth Veins": "The sky is vast, the wilderness is boundless, and the mountain roads are winding and lead to the dark yellow. There are some forbidden areas of destiny. Stepping into them is not conquering, but self-destruction."
At the monitoring center late at night, the astronomical telescope is still pointed at the North Star. The light and shadow of the dragon and phoenix totems flow in the starry sky, sometimes turning into a compass to guide the direction, and sometimes condensing into a protective shield. Qi Tongwei stood under the dome, looking at the winding mountain road in the distance, and suddenly realized: the relationship between humans and nature is like this rugged mountain road - only by respecting every bend and every dangerous peak can we find the real way out in the fog.
The light and shadow of the dragon and phoenix totems flowed on the mirror of the astronomical telescope, and suddenly turned into a sharp sword that pierced into the clouds, and a thunder-like roar came from the distance.
"Professor Qi, the Southeast Asia Geophysical Monitoring Station has lost contact!" Lin Xia's voice was trembling. On the holographic map, the geophysical nodes in the Mekong River Basin went out one after another, replaced by flashing red warning lights. The little fox jumped onto the operating table, its tail sweeping across the keyboard, and a shocking scene appeared on the satellite image: the primitive rainforest was razed to the ground by a bulldozer, revealing a giant stone tablet engraved with dragon and phoenix totems underground, and the inscriptions on the tablet burst out black juice under the mechanical crushing.
Three days later, representatives of a multinational agricultural group broke into the manor with a team of lawyers. The leading blond businessman threw the documents on the conference table. Between the pages was a plan for a Southeast Asian plantation. The red-marked irrigation system was crossing the main vein of the earth. "Our project meets international environmental standards." The lawyer pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, "but your earth vein monitoring data is suspected of infringing on commercial secrets."
Qi Tongwei silently opened the "Earth Vein Notes", and the Southeast Asian ancient coins in the latest page suddenly became hot. The phoenix pattern on the coin completely overlapped with the pipeline direction on the planning map, and the Sanskrit engraved on the edge translated into "Those who anger the earth spirits will bleed into Mekong." Liang Lu called up the satellite remote sensing image and saw that the earth vein network under the plantation was carbonizing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The conflict broke out during the rainy season. In the middle of the night when it was raining heavily, the alarms at the monitoring station were intertwined with thunder. Zhang Dazhu rushed into the main control room: "The toxins in Southeast Asia's earth veins are spreading along the water vapor!" On the holographic screen, the gray-black pollution clouds were moving in the form of strange dragon and phoenix totems. Wherever they went, crops withered and rivers foamed. Even more terrifying was that local residents began to experience symptoms such as skin cracking and hallucinations, which were exactly the same as the fungus disaster in Dongjiang Village that year.
Qi Tongwei led the team to Southeast Asia urgently. In the rain-soaked plantation, they found that the damaged stone tablets had curse-like patterns. When the sound wave detector was close to the crack, an ancient chant was heard: "The phoenix roosts in the scorched earth, the dragon is trapped in the quagmire, and blood sacrifices in all directions can resolve the grievances." The accompanying anthropologist was pale and said: "This is the prayer of the ancient Khmer civilization to destroy the world."
The security forces of the multinational group cordoned off the scene. Qi Tongwei stood in the mud, watching the bulldozer restart, and suddenly felt an unbearable burning pain from the dragon and phoenix pendant on his chest. The shadow of the new locust tree emerged in the rainstorm, and the totem on the trunk turned into a chain to wrap around the machine, but was cut off by the laser cutter. Amid the flying sawdust, he heard the little fox roar: "They are using quantum jammers to block the ground vein signal!"
A turning point came on the seventh day. When Qi Tongwei was looking up ancient books in the scripture library of the local temple, the abbot held out a water-stained palm leaf scripture. On the yellowed leaves, the faded dragon and phoenix totems suddenly regained their brilliance, revealing the solution: holy water from the source of the Mekong River, mixed with the ashes of the old locust tree in Dongjiang Village, should be sprinkled on the damaged ground veins on a full-moon night.
On a full-moon night, the two sides confronted each other on the banks of the Mekong River. The armed helicopters of the multinational group hovered in the sky, and the searchlight swept over the bronze tripod in Qi Tongwei's hand. When the first scoop of holy water was poured into the tripod, the river suddenly boiled, and countless golden carps jumped out of the water, forming a huge dragon and phoenix pattern. Liang Lu led the villagers to simultaneously activate the global geomagnetic monitoring station, and the energy barrier formed by the resonance of sound waves instantly paralyzed the electronic system of the helicopter.
This contest lasted for three full months. The United Nations Environment Program intervened in the investigation and discovered a leyline ecosystem beneath the plantation that was enough to subvert modern biology. The secret documents of the multinational corporation were exposed: they had long known that the development project would cause disasters, but they attempted to use gene editing technology to create "drug-resistant crops" for profit. When the evidence was made public and news of the stock price plummeted came, the blond businessman looked at the dragon and phoenix tapestry on the wall of his office and suddenly found that the totem's eyes were oozing blood and tears.
In today's ecological museum, the restoration of the Southeast Asian stone tablet is quietly displayed. Whenever visitors approach, the holographic projection will reproduce the thrilling battle of protection. Qi Tongwei wrote in the new chapter of "Notes on the Earth Veins": "The sky is vast, the wilderness is boundless, the fog of interests will blind our eyes, but the heartbeat of the earth veins will never lie. Some roads seem to be shortcuts, but in fact they lead to the abyss; some guards seem clumsy, but they are the only way to survive."
The mountain breeze swept across the dome of the monitoring center again, and the dragon and phoenix totems in the astronomical telescope were still flowing in the starry sky.
He deliberately spilled coffee on the newly delivered "White Paper on Global Geophysical Development", and the pattern created by the smudged ink looked very much like the black blood that oozed out when the geophysical veins were damaged.
"Professor Qi, the World Energy Alliance invites you to attend the Dubai Summit." Lin Xia pushed open the door with documents in her arms, only to see Qi Tongwei graffiti on the wall with children's crayons, with "Don't dig" written all over the wall next to the crooked dragon and phoenix totems. The young assistant was stunned. He clearly remembered seeing this academic leader working for 18 hours in the laboratory last night, comparing the night-scented fungus gene chain with the totem of the ancient Shu civilization.
