Others have not recognized what this pattern is, and they are still staring at the gray-white monument with interest, but when they see the back of the monument, their faces are hard to look.
I know what else is on the back. Now that I have seen the UN badge, what else can scare me
I leaned over and followed and took a look. There is nothing strange, isn't it just a paragraph
There are only five versions of this passage, namely English, French, Russian, Chinese and Spanish. That is, the five official languages of the United Nations.
I went straight to read that Chinese.
"Civilization Monument-Establishment of the Arab Republic of Egypt, 1997.11.14"
I think I'm going crazy.
So this is really a reality show, right, the director behind it is the United Nations
Gu Tang asked, "Gu brother, what's going on? Why is there a civilized monument here? We're not here to travel, right?"
Gu Tang rubbed his eyebrows and said nothing. I don't know what to say, I can only silently stare at this monument erected by the Egyptian government.
"I vaguely know what else is on this tower." Chongyang said.
"what?"
"Civilization." Chongyang pointed at this monument, "a monument of various civilizations."
I was stunned for a moment, and then I found it made sense. The entire tower presents a weird mix-and-match style in appearance. The first layer is the style of ancient Egyptian civilization, and then upwards should be the style of other civilizations.
"It's just that, is this tower really built by the United Nations?" It's outrageous.
Gu Tang shook his head and said, "No, no, at least, it shouldn't be the United Nations of our world."
The scene quieted down for a while, at least not the United Nations of our world. It sounded absurd, but it was credible. Of course, more people just don't understand the meaning and actively choose not to speak.
Fang Jinyue had heard the nonsense of Padmasambhava, and asked, "Is there a United Nations five permanent member in that world?"
"It stands to reason that this is the case, but it cannot be said that their world also has the United Nations five permanent members, but our world also has the United Nations five permanent members. After all, our world developed from that side as a template."
If this tower is really built by a country in another world, it is not impossible. After all, the space of Saint Snow Mountain and Mapu Temple is distorted, we can come in, and people from another world can also come in.
Now I have a question, whether Padmasambhava knew about this tower. He is an agent who obsessively and projected onto the ground, knowing the origin and development of this world, but what about the outside world? On the night of the full moon, Padmasambhava seldom mentioned to us what the outside world looks like. He just said that the world we live in was developed based on that world. The implication is what our world looks like outside. What will that world be like.
But this is only a rough generalization. In general, the opposite is also the Wuchang. It is also in the Internet era. The productivity level is similar, but the details must be different. There is definitely no Ning Chuan in that world who is also thinking about it, and the president of the United States in the two worlds will not be the same person.
The most important thing is that the United Nations in our world will not organize to build this tower.
"Civilization monument." I murmured, "It's not that the world is about to be destroyed, so build a civilization monument to commemorate their civilization?"
"If it is really going to be destroyed, there is no such idle time." Gu Tang said, "And the ancient Egyptian civilization has been destroyed long ago. Haven't you seen the full name of the modern Egyptian country called the Arab Republic of Egypt? Modern Egypt is just the Nile River basin. Secondary civilization."
Fang Jinyue said excitedly: "Sublimation, Chinese civilization has a long history, and it is the only civilization that has been passed down continuously to this day."
"Come on, I know you are full of enthusiasm." I said perfunctorily, "Since the ancient Egyptian civilization has been destroyed, what is the use of building this monument?"
"Could it be that the symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning." Chongyang Tao.
"Symbolic significance?" I repeated, "The ancient Egyptian civilization is used to replace modern Egyptian civilization because the ancient Egyptian civilization is more symbolic and symbolizes..."
"It's very simple." Chongyang pointed to the two words on the monument, "symbolizing civilization."
If anything is to be used to symbolize the power of human civilization, it must be a civilization that symbolizes the ancestors of civilizations in various regions.
"That is the four ancient civilizations." Fang Jinyue said, "Ancient Egypt, Babylon, ancient India, and China."
I shook my head. "The members of the four ancient civilizations are not necessarily these four. If you don’t use the age as the criterion, but look at the degree of influence on the world, they should be Babylon, ancient Egypt, ancient Rome, and China. ."
"Why replace ancient India?" Fang Jinyue was unhappy.
"I'm happy." I just don't like India, what's the matter
Gu Tang smiled and looked at Fang Jinyue, and said to him: "What can you fight with him, you can't win."
If I choose, there are some subjective preferences in replacing ancient India, but it is more because the ancient India thing has collapsed. It takes up such a good place and the damn words can’t even keep the words and dare to call it ancient civilization. ? Talking about the impact is even less worth mentioning. After the destruction of the original civilization, I don't know how many foreign civilizations have been killed, like a bunch of people, hundreds of thousands of years without history, dare to be called a great country? Dare to cross the border? Fuck you.
Sorry for the gaffe, anyway, it's just for fun, and doesn't mean to look down on the big country India.
After experiencing so much, I am basically not so panicked now. Although I have not found a way out for the time being, from the mechanical operation I just saw, there will always be a way.
After chatting for a while, I looked at this small closed room upright, except for the monument, there was nothing else, not even a place to sit.
I waited for a while like dementia, and I heard a click, and then the sound of the machine bracket turning. The monument slowly sank, and the stone slabs on the ground moved to fill the void, as if there had never been a monument here before.
Then the walls on all sides rose slowly. We looked up and saw that the ceiling above was gone. Except for the slate floor standing under our feet, the other directions were pitch black, and we couldn't see anything.
Then there was the sound of the tightening of the iron cable, the sound of clanging clanging sounded in the dark, the sound of steel friction, the sound of the machine running, and the sound of the bearing rotating from different directions.
A sense of lift suddenly came, and the ground suddenly rose.
"Stand firmly!" Gu Tang suddenly grabbed my left hand, and I looked at Chongyang who grabbed my right hand, "Are you two going to tear me up?"
They both let go of their hands at the same time, and I sat on the ground, so I didn't bother to get up, so I just sat down.
After standing for a while, the others found that they were unsteady, so they all sat on the ground.
It’s like riding a cable car, but it’s not moving straight forward. It moves back and forth and sometimes left and right in the dark. The few lamp slaves holding candles have already fallen into the darkness in the huge swing and shattered to pieces. , We can only rely on flashlights to illuminate, but we can't see what is in the darkness around us. We can only occasionally see huge beams or gears that turn quickly.
It's like being inside a working machine. No, it's not like, but it is.
The sound of braking came slowly, and I felt like I was sitting on a pirate ship all the way. I resisted the desire to vomit, and heard a clicking sound in the darkness ahead, and then a black stone ladder slowly extended down until it fell to us. before.
Then there was a buzzing sound, and two flames lit up at the end of the stone steps, illuminating a black door. The carvings on the door were extremely cumbersome and completely different from the simple style of ancient Egypt.
And we also saw clearly the two figures holding the flames. They were two knights in Gothic armor, wearing scarlet masks, unable to see their faces, holding a spear in one hand and a torch in the other.
We walked up step by step, the knight looking down at us, the eyes in the visor without any emotion. (End of this chapter)
