Although the sudden appearance of the new elfin was an unexpected interlude, it was even more unexpected that they had arrived at their original destination. Zhang Zian didn't know if this counted as a different route leading to the same destination.
However, a new problem was in front of Zhang Zian.
After he got up this morning, he was busy putting his camping supplies into the car. He was about to start looking for the elfin in the city again. He had been chasing the elfin for more than five hours without stopping. He didn't even have lunch. By the time he entered the Redwood National Forest, it was already evening.
The light representing the elfin plunged into the forest that covered an area of hundreds of square kilometers. Even if Zhang Zian was crazy, he couldn't just follow the light into an unfamiliar forest at night when he was exhausted.
After the light entered the forest, its speed was greatly reduced, but it was still moving north. It seemed that it had taken advantage of the fact that it couldn't be seen by others to hitchhike. From this point alone, it was at least smarter than Sihwa. Sihwa was stupid enough to swim from Denmark to Germany instead of finding a way to board a boat …
In any case, he had to find a place to stay before it was completely dark. Anything else could only wait until tomorrow.
The elfins were also complaining. Zhang Zian stopped the car once or twice to let them solve their physiological problems, but physiological problems couldn't be solved immediately. Except for Richard, everyone complained about the delay.
Zhang Zian switched to Google Maps and followed the directions to the tourist center. Although this would make him farther and farther away from the light, there was no other way.
In fact, from north of San Francisco to the border with Oregon, there were more than a dozen large and small forest parks. All of them had mahogany trees, but Redwood National Park was the largest.
When he arrived at the southernmost tourist center, Zhang Zian stopped the car. The elfins couldn't wait to jump out of the car and stretch their bodies.
There were also two or three station wagons parked next to them. They were probably tourists like him.
"What are those people doing?" Famous asked as he looked around.
There were a few tourists there, excitedly taking pictures with cameras and mobile phones. The problem was that neither Zhang Zian nor the elfins could see what they were taking pictures of. The place where the cameras were pointing was clearly the very ordinary edge of the Redwood Forest.
Could it be that they could see things that others couldn't?
Anyway, they were just stretching their bodies. The elfins curiously ran over to see what was going on, but they still couldn't see anything.
After those people finished taking pictures, they got in the car and left.
Zhang Zian locked the car and walked over to take a look.
He was taller than the elves, and as soon as he walked over, he immediately understood.
"It's the light of Jesus," he said.
"What?"
The elves didn't understand, and most of them didn't know who Jesus was.
Zhang Zian asked them to take a few steps back and stand at a suitable angle.
Due to the abundance of water vapor in the forest and the rapidly decreasing temperature due to the approaching night, the water vapor condensed in the air in large amounts, but it had not yet formed into fog.
They faced the west. The light of the setting sun shone from the west. The sunlight that should have been dazzling was blocked by a tall and sturdy red robe, so it did not directly reach their eyes.
On both sides of the red tree, the sunlight shone on the condensed water vapor, forming several light curtains that looked like sharp swords. The parts of the light curtains that were close to the sun had several circles of seven-colored rainbow halos.
The strong contrast between light and dark made the redwood trees look very dark, and the sunlight was very strong. Coupled with the tranquil forest, the whole scene had a mysterious and sacred feeling.
This phenomenon was called the Tyndall effect. The viewer seemed to be shrouded in the light of God, also known as the light of Jesus.
There was the light of Jesus in the west, and the light of Buddha in the east. Both were named because of the great shock and impact they had on the viewer's soul. In essence, they were actually optical phenomena that were given sacred names.
Zhang Zian explained the identity of Jesus and the relationship between Jesus and the church, which immediately caused Fina's disdain.
In theory, Fina was born in the same era as Jesus, or maybe even earlier than Jesus. It sneered and said, "Egypt came first, then heaven, and the Cat God came before Pharaoh! Jesus … Ha ha! "
Zhang Zian was speechless.
Snowy Lionet immediately seized the opportunity and said, "Your Majesty, I think it's better to change the name of this light to Fina's light!"
Fina didn't say anything, but its expression was still very happy.
The general public could feel the shock of the light of Jesus, but not many people could accurately call out the name "Jesus light." The name was mainly spread in the photography circle.
Zhang Zian could call out the name because Luo Qingyu, the president of the photography club at Binhai University, often posted similar things on his WeChat Moments to show off. Of course, the target of his pretentiousness was mainly the junior girls who had just enrolled in the university.
One time, Luo Qingyu showed a photo of the light of Jesus that he had taken and proudly popularized it. Soon, another photography enthusiast found out that his light of Jesus was photoshopped and not a real photo … Then the post was deleted, but Zhang Zian still saw it before deleting it.
The phenomenon of the light of Jesus was actually not rare, but it often appeared in the wilderness or at sea, and it required some specific meteorological conditions. When it appeared, there might not be people who happened to see it, and the people who saw it might not happen to know photography. Therefore, it was not often photographed, especially the most magnificent small part of the light of Jesus. Basically, it could not be seen in densely populated areas.
As the sun moved, the light of Jesus formed by the tree became weaker and weaker, gradually fading away. It was no longer as shocking as it was at the beginning.
Zhang Zian and the elfins had seen enough. In any case, it should be a good sign to be able to see such a beautiful scene as soon as they arrived.
They walked a few steps toward the visitor center, left the edge of the woods, and came to the open space, bathed in the sunset.
Old Time Tea occasionally glanced at the sky and reminded him, "Zian, look to the west."
Zhang Zian and the other elfins raised their heads and looked up at the sky in the west. They were suddenly stunned.
Unknowingly, a thick cloud had quietly moved in from the west. The sun that had not yet set the horizon was blocked by the clouds, forming a spectacle of a "one-line sky." The sun shone through a gap in the clouds, and an incomparably magnificent light curtain hung over the dense jungle in the west. It was as if the next moment, an angel would follow the light curtain and descend to the world.
He looked down at his phone. Although he could not be sure, just by looking at it, the position where the light curtain and the forest connected seemed to be the flashing position of the elfins on the electronic map of the game.
