The starlight shines through the glass and falls on the back of the flower of life who is bending over to adjust the telescope.

This telescope has been bought for almost a year. Except for the Lantern Festival, a few children came to have fun. Later, they stood alone on the top of the building, looking up at the starry sky with a stubborn attitude, unchanging wind and rain.

The children did not come again. They usually go to school, and play games at home after the holidays. For children living in a smog city, the charm of games is far greater than the dim starry sky above their heads.

It took tens of thousands of things to buy, but since then, it has been dusted, which is a pity for the flower of life. Every time she cleans Aoki's studio and room, she goes to the glass shed on the top of the building to clean up the dust on the telescope.

Sometimes she would look at the sky, the moon, and the unfamiliar stars on a good day, until one time, she happened to see a shining cloud in the eyepiece. She had never seen such a shocking picture, and had never seen such a beautiful brilliance.

At the time, she didn't know what it was. After going back to the Internet, she found out that she saw the Great Nebula in Orion.

From then on, Bi Shenghua fell in love with astronomy and the stars hidden deep in the faint universe. She wanted to see them as they were.

Winter is the best season to observe the Orion Nebula. The weather today is good, there is no cloud or haze in the sky. She looked for the position of the three stars of the Orion belt in the finder. The three stars were very bright and neatly arranged. They were very conspicuous in the winter night sky. She quickly found them.

After adjusting the angle and focus, she saw the bright nebula in the eyepiece.

It is the M42 Orion Nebula, like a big colorful bird flying with open wings. Seeing it, the flower of his whole life thought of the coal boss, the greedy and wordy crow.

Beside the big bird, there is a dense and gloomy dust cloud. Behind the cloud is red light emitted by hydrogen ionized by a nearby star. On the top of the cloud, there is a cloud with a rotating bulge, because it resembles a horse's head. , Astronomers call it the Horsehead Nebula.

But in the eyes of lifelong flowers, where is there a bit of a horse's head? It's somewhat similar to that chicken coop head. Right next to it is the M42 Nebula that resembles a big bird, like a crow croaking and flying towards Aoki's head.

Together with other nebulae and bright stars, they are surrounded by a bubble-like arc-shaped red emission nebula, which is the Barnard ring in Orion, which is said to have a span of 300 light years.

The flower of his life has a soft spot for Orion, and it will take a long time to look at it. For this reason, she also researched astronomical data about Orion, and learned that the bird-like M42 nebula is 1350 light-years away from the earth, and the chicken-like Horsehead Nebula is a little farther away from the earth, 1500 light-years away. .

Thinking that even if the bird could fly to the speed of light, it would take hundreds of years to stop on the green wood, the flower of life couldn't help laughing.

For hundreds of years, it would have been early to starve the crow to death!

But sometimes, she would be a little sad again inexplicably. The wood and the greedy crow have been gone for almost a year, and there is no news at all, as if they had evaporated from the world.

Bi Shenghua straightened up, looked away from the eyepiece, and looked up at the distant starry sky. The nebula cannot be seen with the naked eye, only the three stars on the belt of Orion hang in the sky as if to declare a certain meaning of life.

She remembered some rumors about Orion, saying that human beings were born in the nebula 1,500 light years away, and later migrated to the solar system. It was the first solar calendar recorded in the Mayan civilization and was called the Gendaya civilization. At that time, people had a third eye, emitting a blue light like a Betelgeuse, which could communicate with the gods living in the center of the Milky Way.

It is said that many important pyramids in Egypt and Maya are laid out according to the position of the three stars of the Orion belt, and the vents of the largest Pyramid of Khufu seem to point to those stars. Some scholars say that it is not a vent at all, because the tombs do not need vents, and other pyramids do not have vents, so these passages point to the road of the "return" of the Pharaoh. Their souls will return to the Great Nebula of Orion through the pyramids, and their bodies will become mummies and be air-dried on the earth.

Bi Shenghua doesn't know whether these claims are based or not, maybe they are just nonsense. She didn't know why mankind lost the third eye, or how the Gendaya civilization disappeared, anyway, this is just a legend.

But when she was looking for information on the Internet, she saw a late German scholar named Jaeger who claimed that the Gendaya civilization was on the bottom of the South Pacific Ocean.

She thought of Aoki and the boss of Coal and went there.

It has been almost a year and they have not returned. She has asked many people and even called the police about it, but it was useless. Not only her, but many people who care about Aoki are doing their best to find Aoki's whereabouts.

Hu Xing and Shi Dazhuang used the resources of the police, Yao Jingjing and Hou Biao also mobilized the entire security company's personnel, and the Xia family assisted. Still nothing.

The last news about Aoki is the oral message brought back by Xia Xiaoxiao and the information provided by Mei Yiqi through the United Nations Space Management Committee and the South Pacific Research Ship Rescue Team. Aoki and Su Huilan arrived at the camp on Lapa Island at the end of last year and drove them. There was no more news after the boat he rented out to sea.

Will they really follow the Gendayas with three eyes to the distant Orion, even if the speed of light, it will take more than a thousand years to fly back? She looked at Orion's direction and thought.

Ever since I fell in love with astronomy, there have always been some strange ideas in the mind of the flower of life. She felt that she was a little abnormal. Not only did she become sentimental, she also began to doubt the meaning of life.

She was a little worried about both Xiao Qi and Mo Yu. Xiao Qi said she was suffering from lovesickness, but Mo Yu believed that she lacked faith and should use faith to expel those strange thoughts in her mind.

Bi Shenghua felt that Mo Yu was right, so she followed Aunt Zhang to the church. But she really couldn't bear the accent of the local priest who read the Bible and preached the gospel in a Wuzhong accent, and people sang local hymns over and over again. She ran away after hearing half of it.

Later, she went to the Lengchan Temple outside the city and felt that the Bodhisattva was always more amiable than Jesus. But when she went to the temple, the crowd was full of tourists. The smoke from the incense made people cry and the hall was noisy. There is nothing solemn and holy.

She also went to Taixuan Temple, but there were more people in Taixuan Temple than Lengchan Temple, and the street in front of the Temple could hardly be crowded. She gave up before entering the gate of Taixuan Temple.

Finally ~lightnovelpub.net~ Lifetime Flower came to a small temple in the outer suburbs. In fact, she doesn't know if this is a temple, anyway, the locals call it that. The gods offered in the temple are a bit messy, there are Bodhisattvas, spiritual officials, and the Jade Emperor. Confucius is also offered in a small side hall next to it.

The Flower of Life is here to find faith, but he can't look up the "belief" of these clay puppets. She just felt that this small temple was quiet, with an unspeakable sense of comfort and security.

She worshipped casually, and when she walked into the Lingguan Hall, a Taoist greeted her: "Girl, draw a lottery, it's very spiritual!"

On the table in front of the Taoist priest is a sign of ten yuan for drawing lots, and there is also a QR code for payment next to it. I spent my whole life scanning the QR code with my mobile phone and paid ten dollars.

The bamboo stick rattled in the scoop, and then one fell out with a clatter. The life flower picked it up and looked at it. There were two signatures on it:

The next year, what happened the next year, I participated in the business.

She stared at the words on the sign blankly, and studied the meaning of it. She didn't even hear the Taoist words: draw ten yuan, resolve the sign thirty, the girl will scan the code again, and I will resolve it for you.
