Chapter 564 The Purpose of the Eye of Dark Night
In a wooden house on the beach, Shi Lei and Jack sat opposite each other.
There was wine and cigars on the table, but Shi Lei wasn't interested at all.
"Mr. Jack, there is no need to be busy with these mundane tasks. Let's get straight to the point."
Jack was already desperate, but unexpectedly, Shi Lei actually agreed to talk to him again. Although Shi Lei still said that he just wanted to hear what price Eye of the Night planned to pay to ask for his help, at least, this was a success. the first step.
"Since Mr. Shi said so, I will be honest." As soon as Jack spoke, Shi Lei was stunned. He actually spoke pure Chinese. Originally, Shi Lei was a little worried about whether his English was enough to cope with such a complex situation. conversation.
Shi Lei smiled and said, "Mr. Jack's Chinese is really good."
"For us regional leaders, mastering several necessary languages is a basic skill. Mr. Shi, you must already know that we need to borrow your insight to identify a batch of precious cultural relics for us."
Shi Lei nodded, this was what he had analyzed, and in his previous exchange with the scepter, the last question was about this matter. Otherwise, he wouldn't have changed his mind and come to see Jack.
"Do you really dare to believe me?" Shi Lei said with a half-smile, his expression slightly narrow.
Jack nodded seriously and said: "In the past, Mr. Since Mr.
"What kind of cultural relics are these? Don't tell me they are illegally smuggled cultural relics."
Jack's expression was slightly embarrassed. He scratched his head and finally said: "This batch of cultural relics must not be seen in the light, but Mr. Shi can rest assured that no one will know that you have helped us. Moreover, this matter itself is also related to Mr. Shi has nothing to do with it, Mr. Shi is only responsible for the appraisal, and everything else is the responsibility of this organization."
"I really can't tell that the head of your organization is actually a lover of cultural relics. You should not be short of money. This can be seen from your expensive charges. Although the expenses required to maintain an organization like yours are not It must be an astronomical figure, but you are still not short of money. Therefore, it is interesting that you also smuggle cultural relics, but at least it is not to sell these cultural relics."
Jack smiled awkwardly and said: "I have already applied to the headquarters about this, and they said they can make it clear to Mr. Shi. However, we also ask Mr. Shi to keep it secret for us after hearing it. Of course, we trust It belongs to Mr. Shi, otherwise I wouldn’t have told Mr. Shi.”
Shi Lei laughed, waved his hand and said: "Don't say it so grandly, you just know very well that if you don't tell me why you are so interested in cultural relics, I'm afraid I will never agree to do this for you. Gossip Let’s talk less, let’s talk about your purpose first.”
“We have been committed to searching for a series of buried cultural relics around the world. That is because the organization has enough evidence to show that these historical cultural relics often represent at least the technological level of their corresponding eras. A large part of these cultural relics represent the technological level that humans have reached in history."
Shi Lei frowned and said, "You don't need to provide any evidence for this. Every era has its specific products, and they represent the highest level of productivity at that time."
"No, no, no, that's not what we are talking about. We are saying that these cultural relics may very well hide technology that surpasses our world. Does Mr. Shi believe that in the many years that the earth has existed, human beings have already Have there been at least several reincarnations? Not necessarily humans, but at least intelligent creatures. In their time, they probably had technological levels that far exceeded those of today's society. And we have enough evidence to show that these technologies are likely to be hidden Among the cultural relics of all dynasties.”
Shi Lei's frown deepened and he said: "You said that intelligent creatures on earth have experienced at least several reincarnations. I believe this, or I want to believe it. However, the cultural relics you can collect are only At most, it’s something from a few thousand years ago, and within a few thousand years of history, it’s impossible to give birth to more advanced technological capabilities than we have now. What Mr. Jack said is really hard for me to understand.”
Jack smiled faintly, as if he was already prepared for Shi Lei's doubts. He said: "Mr. Shi is right. The era we are in now is at least the peak of our generation's intelligent biotechnology capabilities. But the mystery of the universe is that we still cannot Understand that the universe is not only affecting us, but also affecting those ancient people. Therefore, in the thousands of years of civilization history, the works of art created by people in the past also contain hidden meanings that they do not understand, but it does not prevent them from incorporating them into the works. The technology it recorded. Mr. Shi must have heard the saying that great artists are madmen. Or maybe they are not abnormal people, but they are just in tune with the universe in some unknown place and perceive some numbers. Technology that will not be born for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. And we hope to discover from these cultural relics and these works of art the secrets that great artists cannot understand but have recorded. It is best to It can be used by us in advance.”
"The erasure and reconstruction of memory is what you discovered from these cultural relics and works of art?" Shi Lei hit the nail on the head.
Jack nodded slowly, his expression became serious, and he lowered his voice and said: "The technology we obtained is not perfect, and we are still working hard on it. However, this technology does come from some great people. Paintings.”
"Oh? Can you tell me whose painting it is?"
"van gogh."
Shi Lei stopped asking. In fact, he couldn't understand what Jack said. However, just like he didn't know what the existence of the black card was about, he had become accustomed to accepting these sensational but real things. The reality of existence.
"So, authenticity is particularly important. You are not collectors. Authenticity is just a certificate for collectors, but for you, it may represent a piece of black technology."
Jack nodded heavily and said, "So, please help Mr. Shi. In fact, identifying authenticity is also a black technology beyond human understanding, right?" Jack tested Shi Lei.
Shi Lei smiled and refused to deny it, keeping a "guess" smile.
"I'm sorry. Please forgive my impulsiveness. I shouldn't have asked Mr. Shi this question." Jack couldn't see anything from Shi Lei and was afraid that Shi Lei would be unhappy because of it.
Shi Lei waved his hand and said, "It's okay, everyone is curious."
"Thank you, Mr. Shi, for your understanding. I hope Mr. Shi can understand that if we only follow the natural climb of the current technological level, we will no longer be able to achieve the goal of leaving this planet before humankind becomes extinct. What we do is just to speed up the development of the technological tree. rising."
Shi Lei smiled slightly again and said: "Next, should you show off the temptation of your Eyes of Darkness?"
