Otherworldly Merchant

I looked at him with some confusion, but I didn't ask anything, and I sat straight down.

Since he brought me here, he must have something to say.

As soon as he saw me sitting down, William opened the door and said frankly: “Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry, but I can only meet you here because of the situation. But I really need your help! ”

I'm still silent, but I'm getting more confused.

He took a long time to get me out of the mountains through Liu Lao Liu, didn't he just explore the underwater palace? Isn't that what you're looking for?

But why did you have to meet me alone and sneak up on me?

Lina held William and sat across from me: "Mr. Zhang, do you know why our family is so obsessed with this place? After decades of uninterrupted generations, are we really just curious? ”

When I was watching the documentary, I thought about it, and they tried so hard to find out what the real purpose was here.

For money, for name? Obviously not.

Just curiosity?

That doesn't make any sense!

If someone in their family is extremely curious, or even paranoid, about this, it's plausible. But it's a little strange that they've been exploring for generations for centuries.

What exactly is the reason?

I was curious, but I still didn't ask the question, and since he asked the question on his own initiative, he obviously wanted to tell me the answer - whether it was true or not.

“Everyone in our family has had a nightmare all along, night and night from the moment of remembrance.” William pressed his forehead painfully: “In dreams, everyone in our family turned into a fish, a mermaid, swimming around. All the way to the ground, all the way underwater, all dark and endless. Occasionally swimming through a white bone, across a pile of skeletons... that scene is incredibly shady and weird. ”

By the time William mentioned it, the expression on his face was still a little disturbed, and his hand holding the cane tightly had a blush.

“Since the beginning of our ancestors, everyone has suffered greatly, and we have thought of many ways to help. We have invited countless archbishops, wizards, psychologists… each of them has different interpretations and seems to have a point, but none of them can break the nightmares of our family for generations. ”

“This nightmare is like an indelible curse that has afflicted us for centuries and will continue to afflict our children. So, my ancestors tried to solve it on their own, and first they found the fish in their dreams, the sturgeon! ”

“We have invested countless sums of money and manpower in pursuing the trails of sturgeons around the world, studying their habits and cruise routes repeatedly; we have provided vast sums of money to scholars around the world studying sturgeons in the hope that they will find the secrets that have always perplexed us. ”

“After desperate pursuit and research, it was finally discovered in 1932 that this very different group of fish, the one seen at the dinner. ”

“In turn, it was found that the fixed spawning season of fish stocks each year is related to the Chinese agricultural calendar. ”

“Afterwards, everyone in our family gradually became Chinese - we have been learning Chinese since childhood and constantly studying Chinese history and mythology. We wonder how our family has been so far away from Europe that we can relate to this group of fish that seem to be related to China. But we still haven't given up, hoping to find a breakthrough. ”

“As you can see, every time those fish lay their eggs, they go into that little hole. ”

“We've thought of countless ways to get close. Cameras have been mounted on fish before, trying to explore the secrets inside, but they're all gone - fish with cameras will never swim up again. ”

“It wasn't until in recent years, when technology had developed, that I used real-time returned optical cameras to capture those images. This was followed by an extremely stunning discovery, exactly as our ancestors dreamed for centuries. ”

“After so many years of hard work by our ancestors, this is the closest time to the truth. That is why I will spare no effort. I must solve this puzzle and never let future generations be disturbed by this nightmare!” William said firmly.

I couldn't help but be a little surprised to hear that there was such a strange past behind it.

“Then why didn't you just say it? There's nothing to hide.” I'm a little weird.

Didn't he bring these men here to break the mystery into the palace? But why not just say it, just tell me.

“I was going to say it, but...” William took a moment and looked at Lina standing next to him in a panic.

Lina answered: "Mr. Zhang, one of these people who attended the dinner was an alternative, or that the sturgeon nightmare was related to him. ”

I was very strange to hear that.

Didn't this nightmare haunt their ancestors for centuries?

Of all the people in this room, only Mrs. Shen is the oldest, but not more than a hundred years old. Where does Lina deduce that?

Lina sees me confused and doesn't sell Guan. She says directly: "I've had nightmares like this since I was a kid, and almost every night I cry. When I grew up, I combined technology and religion to create magnetic field psychology. I found that, with interference from biomagnetic fields, I was able to detect fluctuations in brain waves. ”

“I've long recorded fluctuations in my dreams into my golden skull to distract my dreams through magnetic field interference, thus sparing my family's children from shock. ”

“But just now, at the moment when the lights were turned off and the sturgeon appeared, the golden skull created a turbulence. This wavelength is extremely special and only happens if the exact same scenario occurs in the mind of the person. The dream was only seen by me and my father, but the waveform was obviously not ours. ”

“In other words, if anyone in the group just now sees a swimming sturgeon in the darkness, they can think of the next image, just like our dreams.” Lina said nervously, "So I pretended to toast, one by one, and looked at everyone's magnetic field wavelength, to see who it was. ”

After that, she lifted her wrist to me with a very small gold watch on her wrist.

Looks like this is her secret device.
