"What I'm talking about are China's top state secrets. If you hadn't accidentally discovered that treasure, you would never have known this secret in your life."
Xue Taikang used rare seriousness to explain to Tang Peng in detail the whole process of why the Awamaru treasure appeared in the Golden Triangle.
Finally, he asked with a half-smile: "Tang Peng, by now you should know how I knew the existence of that treasure, right? Moreover, what you discovered this time was not a treasure, but Pandora's Box.
"
The so-called Pandora's Box comes from a classic myth of ancient Greece.
It is said in the myth that before the box was opened, mankind had no disasters and lived a peaceful life. This was because all viruses and diseases were locked in the box, so that mankind could avoid torture. But after Epimetheus' wife Pandora opened it,
After that, the world became restless - this allusion is actually similar to Tang Peng's discovery of the Awa Maru treasure.
"Pandora's box?"
Tang Peng was stunned for a long time, then shook his head hard and said: "Vice Chairman Xue, to be honest, if someone else told me this, I really wouldn't believe it. But this is what you told me, but I can't help but believe it.
It turns out that the Yan family did not swallow up this treasure privately, but on the order of the country. Well, thinking about it carefully, when I found out that the commander of the **93rd Division was related to this treasure, I was still wondering why. It turned out
…”
After saying this, Tang Peng's expression suddenly became strange.
Xue Taikang asked: "What's wrong? Do you still have any questions?"
Tang Peng did not deny it: "Yes. If everything you just said, Vice Chairman Xue, is true, then am I, the person who came into contact with the treasure, also exposed to nuclear radiation?"
Without waiting for Xue Taikang to answer, Tang Peng added: "Then why do I not feel uncomfortable at all until now?"
Xue Taikang replied calmly: "It's very simple, because after decades of keeping the treasure in a suitable environment, its own nuclear radiation has been reduced to a minimum. Mr. Zhou Yanwu, a nuclear expert who participated in the study of the treasure's storage, clearly pointed out in the report,
There are two possibilities that will make the treasure's nuclear radiation ineffective. The first is that after the treasure has been diluted by the environment for more than 25 years, only people who are close to the treasure for a week will cause harm to the human body."
"Oh, so that's how it is. How could I be okay?"
Tang Peng breathed a sigh of relief and vaguely felt something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it. He just frowned and thought for a moment before asking: "So, what about the second scenario?"
"The second case is very simple and can be said to be similar to a legend."
Xue Taikang took the trouble to explain: "As a Chinese, you should know the principle of the restraint of the five elements passed down from your ancestors, right?"
The so-called mutual restraint of the five elements in traditional Chinese medicine theory refers to the five basic substances that make up all things in the world. It is used to explain the origin of all things in the world and that the world is a unity of material diversity.
In traditional Chinese medicine, there is a famous judgment: "One Qi divides Yin and Yang, Yin changes into Yang and harmonizes, and transforms into the five elements."
Simply put, all things are first of one Qi, and one Qi then becomes Yin and Yang. Through the movement and changes of Yin and Yang, the five elements are transformed. This is also a theory of the Taoist school in my country.
Tang Peng didn't know much about the principle of the mutual restraint of the five elements, so he showed rare humility: "Hey, Vice Chairman Xue, I really don't know much about this professional knowledge. But when I read Master Jin Yong's martial arts novels before,
, but I know that any treasure, such as the Tianshan Snow Lotus, must be guarded by poisonous snakes. It seems that this can be regarded as the five elements that are in conflict with each other, but at the same time complement each other, right?"
Xue Taikang raised his hand and gave a thumbs up: "Yes, your metaphor is correct. No matter how poisonous the thing in the world is, it is possible to be restrained, even if it is nuclear radiation from the Awa Maru treasure. This is what Mr. Zhou said
The second possibility is that although nuclear radiation is extremely harmful to humans, there are some people who will not be harmed by nuclear radiation. This is also the reason why some people were able to survive the atomic bombing of Hiroshima."
Xue Taikang looked thoughtful: "As for why these people can resist nuclear radiation, science now has a vague answer, that is, the genes in their bodies are different from most of us. But there are very few such people.
, after the atomic bomb exploded in Hiroshima, hundreds of thousands of people were exposed to radiation, but only one family named Tianxiu, about 20 people, survived. Scientists later showed that the Tianxiu family in Hiroshima, an island country, had the ability to neutralize nuclear radiation
There is a special gene, but there is no definite conclusion as to what exactly it is."
This was the first time Tang Peng heard that someone had the ability to withstand nuclear radiation. He asked with interest: "Vice Chairman Xue, do you think there are any people in our country who have this special gene?"
When Tang Peng asked this question, he meant to ask it casually, and he did not expect Xue Taikang to answer.
But to his surprise, Xue Taikang nodded: "Yes, and you know the family, or rather the person, that possesses this special radiation-resistant gene."
Tang Peng was stunned: "What, there really is such a person, and I even know him!?"
Xue Taikang nodded again.
Tang Peng couldn't wait to ask: "Then who is this person?"
Xue Taikang raised his head, looked at a national map hanging on the wall, and said slowly: "More than twenty years ago, in Xingjiawan, the old town of Shenyang City in the northeast, there was a man named Xing Chunshan..."
Before Xue Taikang finished speaking, Tang Peng stood up from the sofa and said in a hurry: "Xing, Xing Chunshan, you mean Uncle Xing?"
"Yes, he is your Uncle Xing and the biological father of Xing Yasi, the current CEO of Poly Group."
Xue Taikang nodded affirmatively.
"Xing Yasi's biological father? It turns out that Xing Yasi is really Uncle Xing's daughter - but why did she get entangled with the Yan family again?"
Tang Peng never dreamed that Xue Taikang, a military boss, would actually know the true family background of Xing Yasi. This made him shocked and felt his head hurt. It really hurt, because everything Xue Taikang told him greatly changed his mind.
It was beyond his ability to bear.
First, the top Chinese officials have long known about the existence of the Awa Maru treasure and why it appeared in the Golden Triangle.
Then I learned that there are people in this world who can withstand nuclear radiation.
In the end, Xing Yasi was actually involved!
What exactly is going on?
Could it be that the Yan family knew that the genes of the Xing family in the Northeast were extraordinary more than 20 years ago, so they snatched her away and raised her as a descendant of the Yan family?
Next, Xue Taikang solved Tang Peng's doubts: "Xing Yasi is indeed Xing Chunshan's biological daughter, but her mother is not the woman your father Tang Wenju knows, but a descendant of the Yan family in Central China!"
Tang Peng looked at Xue Taikang stupidly, and stayed for a long time before murmuring: "I know, the wife that Uncle Xing married when he immigrated to the United States turned out to be a descendant of the Yan family in Central China - in this way, it turns out that in
More than 20 years ago, the Yan family knew that Uncle Xing had a special gene that could neutralize nuclear radiation, so they married their daughter to him for the sake of the Awa Maru treasure, right?"
"What you said is both right and wrong."
Xue Taikang said calmly: "Xing Chunshan's wife before he went abroad was not a child of the Yan family at all. Xing Yasi's mother only met Xing Chunshan after he went to the United States."
"Borrow, borrow seeds, is this considered borrowing seeds?"
Tang Peng felt that his head was filled with screams, and he could only hold his head with both hands: "Just because Uncle Xing has a special gene that can neutralize nuclear radiation, will the Yan family have to lose a daughter? With the Yan family's financial situation, it seems
You wouldn’t care so much about dozens of tons of gold, would you? As for the skull fossils, it doesn’t seem to be of much use to them.”
Xue Taikang sighed leisurely: "Oh, Tang Peng, things are not as simple as you think."
Tang Peng rolled his eyes: "It's already so entangled, is it still simple?"
Xue Taikang tapped the table with his right fingers and said thoughtfully: "If it's just because Xing Chunshan has a special gene, if it's just because he can rely on this gene to obtain those treasures - as you said, the Yan family is still
I don’t bother to do it. In fact, the real reason is by no means that simple, there is another deeper meaning. Unfortunately, I can’t tell you those deeper secrets anymore. But..."
Seeing that Xue Taikang hesitated to speak, Tang Peng quickly asked: "But what?"
Xue Taikang hesitated for a long time before saying: "However, I am not sure that Xing Yasi is the daughter of the Yan family's daughter and Xing Chunshan."
Tang Peng was dumbfounded for the nth time: "What? Xing Yasi, why is it not the Yan family - Vice Chairman Xue, why don't you just say, I don't know who got Xing Yasi!"
"It is absolutely true that Xing Yasi is Xing Chunshan's biological daughter, because she has that special gene."
Xue Taikang explained: "The only thing that I, or the authorities, are not sure about is whether Xing Yasi was born to a daughter of the Yan family. Because after Xing Chunshan went to the United States, the women he came into contact with were not just the daughters of the Yan family.
And the daughter of the Jiangdong Liao family..."
Tang Peng felt that he was really going crazy: "What? The Jiangdong Liao family is still involved!? Damn! In order to get Uncle Xing's special genes, they shamelessly gave away beautiful women with both hands!"
Regarding Tang Peng's foul language, Xue Taikang pretended not to hear it and just smiled bitterly and said: "This is all caused by huge interests."
"What a bullshit huge benefit."
Tang Peng cursed and rubbed his cheeks with both hands: "But I think you are too stupid? You don't even know who Xing Yasi's biological mother is, but I think the Yan family and the Liao family must know."
"They don't seem to know either."
Xue Taikang also began to struggle: "Hey, listen to me first. Back then, it was the Yan family and the Liao family who sent their outstanding girls to contact Xing Chunshan. Moreover, they all got pregnant successfully - what,
Well, coincidentally, they both gave birth to daughters on the same day, in the same ward at Queen Mary Hospital in New York, USA. But that day, terrorists attacked Queen Mary Hospital, Xing Chunshan, and his two
All the beautiful wives perished in disaster - only one nurse rescued a little baby, and that was Xing Yasi."
