"CCTV! CCTV! Dear viewers, you are now watching CCTV! "
"Dear viewers! I am now in Queens, New York City. There has just been a riot here. The New York police have used a large number of officers to forcibly disperse the rioters. This riot has resulted in one death and more than 30 injuries. The situation is still being investigated … "
…
"Now let's contact Sun Fei in Europe. Let's understand the situation there."
"Hello, host!"
"Hello, Sun Fei. Can you tell us about the situation in Paris now?"
"Okay, it's like this. Since this afternoon, a large number of people have gathered in front of the Elysee Palace in Paris. They are holding various slogans and asking the government to reveal the truth of the matter. We can now see a large number of police have gathered in front of the presidential palace. In order to prevent the situation from escalating, President Sarkozy has canceled his visit to the Middle East and called on the people to calm down through a televised speech …"
"Okay, let's contact Su Ren who is in Tokyo. Hello, Su Ren, hello, hello … Okay, maybe the satellite signal is not very good, so we can't reach Su Ren for the time being. It doesn't matter. Now let's invite the two guests in the studio to give us a scientific explanation of this incident."

"Welcome back, this is CCTV's special news observation program. First of all, let me introduce the two guests we have specially invited today. Of course, they are also authoritative experts in the academic world. This is Professor Huo Sinian, an astronomer from Tsinghua University, and this is Professor Zhang Tingen, an astrophysicist from China University of Science and Technology!"
"Good afternoon, professors. We know that today, at 7: 15 am Beijing time on the 22nd, the entire sun suddenly disappeared from the sky for a full 10 minutes. This special astronomical phenomenon was observed all over the world. During this period, there were no predictions of solar eclipses, which led to a lot of speculation."
"Of course, the most famous speculation is about the end of the world. In the prophecy, the sun should disappear completely yesterday, that is, after the 21st, and the earth will fall into darkness. We know that many people are actually very concerned about this matter, especially some people abroad. They are very worried about the success of this prophecy. As of the 22nd, which is 7 am this morning, many people think that this prophecy is just a joke, like the end of the world in 1999."
"However, we also know that at about 7: 15 pm, the entire sun suddenly disappeared for about 10 minutes without any warning. The entire land was in darkness, and global communications also fell into extreme chaos. The whole process lasted for 10 minutes, and then everything returned to normal.
Therefore, many people believe that the doomsday prophecy may really come true. Of course, we know that this should be a special kind of astronomical phenomenon, but because it has never happened before, I hope the two professors can help us understand it from a scientific point of view. Thank you! "
… *&…%&…%% ((¥¥%&…
"Thanks to the explanations of these two powerful professors, we are suddenly enlightened. We believe that this special astronomical phenomenon has its own scientific reasons. Of course, it also refutes all kinds of rumors such as doomsday prophecies. We should also look at such things from a scientific point of view. There is no need to be ridiculous and pointless panic …"
Chu Yunsheng reached out his hand and turned off the remote control. He felt that there was no need to continue watching. The internet was already filled with people. The so-called experts refuting the rumors had become synonymous with deceiving the public. Since 2008, not many people believed the so-called experts. Of course, Chu Yunsheng didn't believe them either.
Although the internet was already in a mess, most people still held a curious attitude and wanted to watch the show. Of course, it also caused panic to many people. Just looking at the dense crowd in the supermarket at noon to buy food, one could see that if it was not quelled in time, the panic would cause a huge economic loss.
Chu Yunsheng was very confident in his judgment. Since a long time ago, he felt that something was wrong. The reason was because of the ancient book that was passed down in his family. Although the characters on the book were completely garbled, he was still sure that it was an ancient book.
Although it was called an ancient book, in fact, it had always been used as a bedside table. Because this book looked too old and broken. Apart from being a bit thick, it had no other advantages. Chu Yunsheng's father kept saying that this book was passed down in his family, and he would never sell it. But in fact, when Chu Yunsheng was admitted to university, Chu Yunsheng's father secretly took this ancient book and went to all the pawn shops and antique markets. The result was that it was a useless book. Even the age of the book was at most three to five years old, which obviously did not match what Chu Yunsheng's father said. This made Chu Yunsheng's father very angry.
Later, it was passed to Chu Yunsheng, and it continued to be used as a bedside table. When Chu Yunsheng decided to buy a house, just like his father, he went to all the antique markets with high expectations. But still, no one showed any interest in it. Chu Yunsheng was so angry that he stopped thinking about it. This so-called ancient book silently became a bedside table.
Until one night, after he broke up with his girlfriend of many years, when Chu Yunsheng was drunk, he strangely found out that the ancient book, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly emitted a dazzling light. Although the time from the beginning to the end was less than 20 seconds, Chu Yunsheng was sure that he did not see it wrong. Even if his friends laughed at him, he still insisted that he saw it.
So naturally, driven by the mentality of money, he took the ancient book to all the pawn shops. But the result was tragic. Still, no one admitted that it was a treasure. So Chu Yunsheng made up his mind and went to do a carbon identification. The result was that the identification report clearly stated that it was just a normal book, it was not an ancient book at all.
At first, Chu Yunsheng was very frustrated by the identification report, but soon he found that the problem was very strange. He knew about the existence of this book since he was a child. He could not guarantee how long it had been in his father's hands, but as far as he could remember, it had been at least more than 20 years. He had seen it with his own eyes. But now the test result said that it was at most less than 10 years old, which meant that not only was this book not garbage, but it was definitely an extraordinary book.
Chu Yunsheng studied the material of the book for a long time, but to no avail. Later, he studied the strange patterns and the same strange characters on the book for a long time. Relying on the slightest connection with Chinese characters and oracle bone inscriptions, Chu Yunsheng learned about three hundred relatively simple characters.
Three hundred words were not enough for him to understand the complete meaning of the book, and he couldn't even understand the content behind the ten pages. However, in these ten pages, he could barely understand the author's warning to the later generations, "Heaven's Path has returned, all laws have been reorganized, the universe has returned to its original state, and the world has become turbulent."
At that time, Chu Yunsheng was in a bad mood because of the impact of his love. Coupled with the influence of the doomsday movie in the United States and the frequent earthquakes and floods around the world, he was very curious about this kind of doomsday prophecy. Out of boredom, he used the calculation rules in the book to repeatedly calculate the date of Heaven's Path's arrival many times. After some calculation, he found out that the date of the Heaven's Path's arrival was only 7 days later than the 21st in the doomsday prophecy. That was to say, the world would change on the 28th.
Chu Yunsheng calculated many times. In the beginning, he was afraid that he could not recognize enough characters, so he would make a mistake. But later, as he recognized more and more characters, the calculation became more and more accurate, and the date still pointed to the 28th. Chu Yunsheng was very nervous at that time. He didn't know why this book seemed to have a special magic that kept driving him to believe that there would be a great change on that day.
This matter troubled Chu Yunsheng for a very long time. He once anonymously posted information about this date on the Internet, but the result was nothing. Because all kinds of doomsday prophecies were spreading all over the Internet, and the government strictly controlled the spreading of rumors. Some serious cases even led the government to chase after him. So his post quickly disappeared.
Until three months ago, he once again found this ancient book emitting a colorful light. At that time, he was just about to turn off the light and go to sleep. The gorgeous colors lit up the whole bedroom. It was so beautiful that Chu Yunsheng was stunned for a moment.
The last time the ancient book emitted a colorful light, it was because Chu Yunsheng was drunk. So under the suspicion of his friends, he almost thought that it was an illusion. But this time, he was very sober. After the shock, he didn't dare to doubt it anymore. Therefore, in the past three months, he almost desperately prepared for this day. His crazy behavior made all his friends think that he was crazy, some of them even wanted to send him to the mental hospital.
He sold the house that he bought with a loan without any hesitation. All the valuable things that he didn't think he would need in the future were sold, and he got a lot of cash. In the center of Shen Cheng city, which was also the place that he believed would be protected by the military in the future, he rented two houses on the same floor. He didn't dare to rent the one on the ground floor, and he didn't dare to rent the one on the top floor. Because according to the ancient book, when the Tian Gui returned, it would bring the Tian Gui from another space in the universe to intersect with each other. At that time, there would definitely be powerful creatures from a strange space invading.
Chu Yunsheng used the sturdiest steel to seal the doors and windows. He also stored a lot of food, clean water, and other daily necessities in the two houses. He bought a bunch of everything that he could think of. He calculated that according to his daily consumption of rice, which was about 2 kg per day, he bought more than 10 tons of rice. Plus, Yu Fei had spent more than 20,000 yuan. He estimated that it was enough for him to eat for more than 10 years.
He also bought water, salt, sugar, paper, batteries, and even toothpaste, laundry detergent, and lighters. Later, he spent a lot of money to buy a pistol and 100 bullets from the black market. By the 21st, his bank account had been reduced from hundreds of thousands Yuan to only 2,000 Yuan. It was not that he didn't want to buy anymore, but the room was full, even the bathroom and the bed were full.
The landlords of the houses that Chu Yunsheng rented lived abroad, and the landlords lived in Shenzhen. They rarely came back to Shen Cheng city. On the 21st, he secretly forced a small door in the wall between the two houses, and sealed the door and all the windows of the other house. Then he quietly waited for the unknown changes.
It was not that Chu Yunsheng didn't want to help his friends, but unfortunately, at the last moment, almost everyone thought that he was crazy, even his relatives also thought that he was crazy. Almost no one was willing to believe him.
However, since this morning, more and more people called him. Because the disappearance of the sun in the morning was too shocking. Although many people still didn't want to believe it, because it was too ridiculous, panic still spread among the people. Therefore, many people who knew about his crazy preparation were asking him what was going to happen. But Chu Yunsheng really didn't know, because he couldn't understand the words written in the ancient book. He could only patiently persuade them to hurry up and prepare the supplies. When it was almost night, he went to the supermarket across the residential area to take a look, and surprisingly, the supermarket was half empty.
The evening news repeatedly emphasized that this phenomenon had a scientific basis, and that it would not happen at the end of the world. At the same time, the uproar of foreign people asking the government to disclose the truth was getting more and more serious. Even all the websites had the same headline:
The sun disappeared, is the doomsday prophecy really coming?
The doomsday, are you ready?
The doomsday is coming, have you bought the ticket?
