Just as some people are strong in nature and some are weak in nature, so are elves. Many elves have honed their indomitable will in past experiences, while some elves do not have such a character, which is understandable. The world is so big, there should be countless different personalities.
Having said that...
There was a patter of spring rain outside, and patter of tears in the house, Zhang Zian and the others were very worried, for fear that Shihua would start crying again if they didn't agree with each other. If the pets downstairs were in an abnormal commotion again, he really didn't know how to explain it. , maybe it will attract the "Approaching Science" column group...
Why did the manager of the pet store die tragically on the street
Why do dozens of pets run around during the day
Why do the fish in the aquarium jump out frequently
Why do bats that lie at night and come out at night prostitute themselves during the day
Is it an outburst of madness or helplessness of hunger and thirst
Is it the distortion of human nature or the loss of morality
Welcome to "The Strange Voice Into the Pet Shop of Science"!
It’s tempting to think about it, but it’s absolutely impossible!
The best way to stop Shihua from crying is to turn grief and anger into strength, but this is not easy for her who is weak by nature.
Laocha and Feina sympathized with Shihua in their hearts, and could understand her loneliness, because they were also lonely in a certain sense, the kind of loneliness that was so high that it was too cold.
Understanding is understanding, but they don't know how to comfort her. Although they are lonely, they are stronger and prouder.
Zhang Zian sighed softly, reached out and rubbed her head, and said, "Don't cry, let me tell you a story."
"I hate it! Don't mess up other people's hair!" Shihua shook his head in embarrassment, and the remaining tears in the corners of his eyes were also thrown into the water with the movement.
In fact, her hair was already messy, curly like dark green seaweed, she never combed it, and started playing with her mobile phone every day when she opened her eyes, but this is a world of faces after all, because her face is unique in the world, even the disheveled Hair also exudes natural beauty.
However, she was very curious about the story Zhang Zian was going to tell, even overshadowing the sadness in her heart, and asked full of expectation: "What story?"
"It's the story of a whale, a lonely whale." Zhang Zian briefly introduced, making people think of the lonely song Shihua just mentioned.
Fina and Lao Cha are also quite curious, after all cats are curious by nature.
"Squeak?"
At some point, π also appeared at the door of the bathroom, gesticulating, meaning: Can I listen too
"Of course." Zhang Zian beckoned it in.
Watched by four pairs of expectant eyes, he recalled the stories he had read before, organized the language, and re-tell the stories in his own words.
Old stories often start with "a long, long time ago", allowing the audience to quickly escape from real life, just like the opening of the Internet is often through a different world, so as to let readers know that the story cannot be judged by the rules of reality .
But unfortunately, this is not a story that happened a long time ago, nor is it someone who traveled to another world, but a real story that happened before.
The story begins at the end of the Cold War, when the United States established an underwater acoustic listening system called sosus in order to fight against the false enemy.
The original intention of many things to be manufactured is due to the military, but later it has an unexpected effect in other directions, and sosus is the same.
There are too many sounds on the bottom of the sea, and the U.S. Navy, as a soldier, can only distinguish a small part of them, and they don't even know what is coming from most of the rest, but for national defense reasons, they really want to Know.
So they wisely decided to cooperate with scientists and share some of the military's recordings with scientists, and the scientists can analyze the sounds that the military wants to know, which can benefit both sides a lot.
Dr. William Watkins, a researcher at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, was the first to hear an unusual sound in a recording. The sound frequency range of whales is basically between 15 and 20 Hz, and the frequency of this sound is as high as 52 Hz.
After the end of the Cold War, more originally top-secret recordings were made public.
The sound of this whale, which has seen its head and tail, has been recorded more than once. Scientists have conducted more research and even mapped out its previous swimming route based on the recording location. However, the ocean is too big and too deep for anyone to see it in person. seen it.
In the 21st century, this unfinished research was published, which aroused the curiosity of the whole world. People called this mysterious whale "the loneliest whale in the world at 52 Hz".
More and more people have joined in the research and tracking of this whale, and people can record its voice almost every year, but it is always limited.
It swims in the vast Pacific Ocean, mainly in the eastern Pacific Ocean and the west coast of the United States, but it can also appear farther afield from time to time.
More than 20 years later, this whale still sings alone in the ocean with a unique frequency.
Because its sound frequency is completely different from other whales, it has no way to communicate with its kind, so it has been excluded from the cetacean society and has been alone for more than 20 years.
It has been wandering in the depths of the ocean, singing a song that has no response of its kind.
It has been wandering alone, looking for traces of its kind on an endless journey.
In recent years, its sound has become deeper, from 52 Hz to between 45 and 50 Hz. People speculate that it may have matured, growing from an ignorant teenager to a young and strong youth, but this is just speculation. No one knows what the truth is.
No one knows if it is male or female, no one knows if it is young or old, no one knows what kind of whale it is, no one even knows if it is alive or dead... because no one has recorded it since 2004 sound up.
No one wants it to die, and if it dies alone like this, the story has a tragic ending.
Probably, it was just bad luck that its sound was not recorded.
Because the most concentrated places of hydrophones are the eastern part of the Pacific Ocean and the west coast of the United States, maybe it has swam to other places, and there are not so many hydrophones there, and there are not so many scientists who are keen to study the ocean.
People believe so.
In order to find its traces, in order not to let it be forgotten, people who love it and sympathize with it even raised funds to shoot documentaries and movies, and wrote songs for it.
Zhang Zian had read this story a long time ago, and like everyone else, he didn't want it to die like this, but his reason told him that it was probably already dead.
Maybe, he was wrong.
