Gu Nianzhi slowly walked down from the low hillside and stood in the middle of the hillside. She found that from this angle, she could see the entire circular plain.
This place was an irregular circle, but was roughly similar to a circle.
On the plain, there were obvious traces of the shock wave caused by the huge explosion. The trees had once fallen in one direction.
More than a hundred years had passed, but this place still couldn’t grow tall trees. There were only low shrubs and grassy lawns.
Gu Nianzhi narrowed her eyes as the setting sun shone on her. She noticed that there was a huge circular crater in the middle of the slightly sunken basin plain.
This must have been the area directly affected by the Tunguska explosion.
The force of the explosion was equivalent to 20 million tons of TNT, and it directly created a crater in the forest.
The sky gradually darkened, and the setting sun grew redder. From Gu Nianzhi’s angle, she couldn’t see what was inside the circular crater at all.
The crater wasn’t black, but blue. Its dark blue color seemed to be able to emit light, and converging on this almost forgotten land, it also seemed like the ultimate rays of the universe.
Gu Nianzhi was fascinated by it. She only snapped back to reality when Huo Shaoheng patted her on the shoulder.
She turned her head and smiled. She pointed at the giant circular crater and said to Huo Shaoheng, “Look, that place is where the Tunguska explosion happened, right?”
Huo Shaoheng nodded. “That’s the place. The meteorite fell from the sky and crashed into the ground after the explosion.”
It seemed that Huo Shaoheng believed in the “comet meteorite impact theory”.
Gu Nianzhi pointed at the circular crater and asked curiously, “Why do you think the crater isn’t black, but blue?”
“It’s blue because there’s water in the crater. The water vapor evaporated, and under the setting sun, the water vapor refracted the color of the sky. That gave it a dark blue color.”
The person who answered Gu Nianzhi’s question wasn’t Huo Shaoheng, but Song Jinning, who had just walked over from behind them!
Overjoyed, Gu Nianzhi turned around. “Miss Song! I’ve finally met you!”
Huo Shaoheng was a little surprised to see Song Jinning. “I heard that you and the other scientists went there to investigate Lake Qike.”
Lake Qike was a lake about eight kilometers away from here. It was said that the meteorite fragments had fallen into the lake, but that was only a myth. They still needed to look for evidence from the lake.
Song Jinning chuckled. “I went to investigate Lake Cheko, but there were a lot of things going on there, and a lot of people. I didn’t think there was any evidence there, so I came back.”
It was obvious that Song Jinning didn’t believe in the “meteor impact theory”.
Gu Nianzhi held Song Jinning’s arm affectionately. “Ms. Song, you’re just in time. I was just wondering why the circular crater was blue… ”
“Actually, it’s not because the crater is blue, but because there’s a large amount of water in the crater. The water vapor that evaporated during the day is now frozen in mid-air and reflected by the setting sun. It’s like the color of the sea in everyone’s eyes”.
It was too beautiful to be true.
Song Jinning patiently explained to Gu Nianzhi in a very friendly manner.
She already knew that Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi were engaged. She had always been fond of Gu Nianzhi, but now she was completely treating her like her own daughter.
Huo Shaoheng carefully observed Song Jinning’s expression and knew that she probably didn’t know what had happened on the road.
Because Huo Shaoheng had already warned Vladimir not to mention the accident on the road to the Huaxia Empire’s physicists.
Now, it seemed like Vladimir had kept his promise.
When Gu Nianzhi heard Song Jinning say that it was “the same color as the sea”, she suddenly let out an “Ah” and said in surprise, “Major General Huo, look at this circular crater. It’s such a deep blue color. Doesn’t it look like the blue hole we saw in the Caribbean sea?!”
Huo Shaoheng’s heart skipped a beat. He focused his gaze and saw that the huge round blue hole really did look like the Blue Hole in the Caribbean Sea!
“Blue Hole? Is that the blue hole with electric arcs that you saw in the Caribbean Sea?”
Song Jinning also remembered the “divine workmanship of nature” they had seen in the east China Sea a while ago, and an alluring smile appeared on her face.
At that moment, Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng simultaneously thought of the “Blue Hole” in the east China Sea that was flashing with bluish-purple lightning.
It was different..
Gu Nianzhi thought to herself.
The Blue Hole in the Caribbean Sea had probably been formed naturally. Gu Xiangwen had used it to install an electric fence to encircle the area.
The “miraculous workmanship of nature” of the East China Sea had been artificially created by Gu Nianzhi and Song Jinning using the high-energy magnetic field that the Japanese scientists had gotten from God knows where to convert the magnetic field into electricity.
The giant circular crater that had appeared in the Tunguska explosion, which resembled the blue hole, must have been created for a different reason.
But why was it so similar in appearance to the blue hole that had formed naturally in the Caribbean sea?
Gu Nianzhi couldn’t resist the urge to tale out her phone and snap photos of the giant circular crater.
She then pulled up the image comparison APP and placed the photos there side by side with the images of the Blue Hole in the Caribbean Sea.
This way, the two places looked even more similar.
Of course, there were also differences.
The biggest difference was that the two places appeared in different places.
One appeared in the boundless forest, and the other appeared in the vast sea.
Hoping that her expert eyes would be able to see more, Gu Nianzhi showed the comparison to Song Jinning.
“Ms. Song, look, don’t they look very similar?”
“This is the Blue Hole of the Caribbean sea?!” Song Jinning was excited. “This is a real work of nature!”
She silently looked at it for a while and sighed. They are very similar indeed. However, only you, little Nianzhi, can think of the similarities between the two. How can a normal person link the sea and the plain together?”
“You can’t say that.” Gu Nianzhi felt that she should be modest in front of Mrs. Song. “It’s possible for the vast sea to turn into mulberry fields, for things on the sea to appear on land, and for things on land to appear at the bottom of the sea ”
“Of course it’s possible, but it takes billions of years of crustal movement for the vast sea to turn into mulberry fields. Do you think a hundred years is enough to turn the vast sea into mulberry fields?”
When it came to science, Song Jinning was especially stringent and sharp.
Gu Nianzhi smiled awkwardly and shook Song Jinning’s arm. “Mrs. Song, you’re a great person! I’m impressed!”
“Don’t try to flatter me! ” Song Jinning liked Gu Nianzhi’s personality. It was rare for a young girl to have such a background but be so carefree. She also wasn’t so sensitive that when others spoke, they had to be mindful of their words lest they hurt her fragile feelings…
Huo Shaoheng remained silent on the side, but his mood was exceptionally good.
The forest in front of him was like a clear blue sky after a rain. The color was green and tender, and the blue circular pit looked very pleasing to the eye.
Gu Nianzhi’s lips parted slightly, and she said endearingly, “I’m telling the truth. I’m not trying to flatter you, am I? Besides, there are specialties in the industry. I’m completely convinced that you beat me in this aspect.”
“That’s enough, you flatter me too much! ” Song Jinning laughed. “What did you grow up on? Honey?”
“Yes, pure natural wild honey from nature. It has the special effect of prolonging one’s life, beautifying one’s appearance, nourishing one’s Yin and nourishing one’s kidney. Miss Song, do you want to eat it together?” Gu Nianzhi winked at Song Jinning and moved her little face closer to her. She looked as if she was waiting for her to taste it.
Song Jinning glanced at Huo Shaoheng, who was beside her, and poked Gu Nianzhi’s tender cheek with her finger. She said kindly, “I’m not eating. I’ll leave you for Shaoheng to eat… ” she winked as well.
Gu Nianzhi’s face instantly blushed.
How could Miss Song say something like that? !
Where had the serious and sharp-witted Miss Song from moments before go? !
