Since the formation of the earth and the existence of civilization, there have been countless unsolved mysteries. Because we know so little about the world, even scientists can't explain it. There was a strange thing that happened in the former Soviet Union. It is about mermaids, and there are many records of mermaids.
The Classic of Mountains and Seas records this: "The lingyu people face the hands and feet of the fish, and in the sea ... Cha Tong sent an envoy to Goryeo and saw a woman in the sea sand, with a red hyena behind her elbow, a mermaid, and a cover that is a lingyu.
In the history of the East and the West, there are myths and legends about mermaids. In China, it is called "mermaid" or "fish man", a mysterious aquatic animal with a human fish tail. Not sure where it came from. In China's "Search for God", there is also such a record: "There are fish people outside the South China Sea, who live like fish in the water, do not waste weaving, and their eyes cry, they can produce pearls." ”
The tears of the fish people can not only be transformed into glass beads, but the oil of the fish people is extremely low due to the low ignition point. And a drop can be combustible for several days, so it was also used by the ancient Chinese as oil for changming lamps. According to legend, in the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, "mermaid paste is used as a candle, and those who are immortal are long." "Of course it's just a legend, and no one has actually seen it.
But there was one incident that upended people's perceptions. When a Soviet ship sank in Cuban waters in 1962, the Soviets sent a probe ship carrying scientists to search the area. Suddenly, a monster appeared in the underwater camera. Only to see a humanoid monster about a meter long appear in front of the camera.
He had a cheek in his head and ears, which looked like it was for breathing, and his lower body looked like a fish tail. With scales on his body, he swam around in front of the camera. Full of curiosity, not knowing what this is. After about half an hour of swimming, he disappeared.
The Soviet scientists, seeing all this, were astonished. I didn't expect that in this deep sea, there was life like a human being. One of the crew members, Gary, said, "I think that thing looks like a man, so let's take him and study it to see what it is."
Other scientists say it seems like it's a small one, what to do if there's a big one behind it. The rest of the crew said, let's open a net, put food in the middle, and bring him over, and that's it. I believe that in this deep sea, there must be other civilizations. After discussion, the scientists agreed, and they began the plan.
After the arrangement, they observed the place with underwater instruments, and after about an hour. The thing came back, as if it had found food, and swam over. The crew saw it and immediately closed the net. The thing found itself in a trap and wanted to run away immediately. But it was too late, and he was caught.
When he got to the ship, the crew put him in a transparent tank. I saw the thing, with a fish's tail, pointed ears, and a human face. And let out a roar, revealing its fangs. The crew saw him and said, give him some food, let him relax, and he will not be nervous.
The scientists observed for half a day and found that the slits between his fingers were connected. Like the soles of a duck's feet, it grows for the purpose of making it easier to swim in the water. Without much effort, the thing quieted down. But still looked at everyone in horror, the scientists saw it, and said, this may be the legendary mermaid.
Who knows, they just finished talking. The monster popped out of the fish tank and said something that he didn't understand. But there was an interpreter present, and a scientist said: He uses Old English, let's listen to what he says first, and I can record it. After an hour, the mermaid was silent.
The scientist translator said they were mackerels, from the city of Trantis at the bottom of the sea. There were tens of thousands of people like him living there, and they grew very slowly. But the life expectancy is very long, and the average can live to about three hundred years old. He was just a small mermaid, about a hundred years old.
The city of Atlantis was originally inhabited by people living on land. Five thousand years ago, there was a catastrophe due to changes in the Earth's crust. They sank to the bottom of the ocean. They lived by fishing, and in ancient times they were mostly similar to humans, but two species, they grew gills and were not suitable for living on land. Like living on the island, there is an Atlantean civilization, and it has been tens of thousands of years.
Who knew that five thousand years ago, there was a catastrophe, and since then, they have lived at the bottom of the sea. Cut a line with humans on land. Sometimes, they also dress up as humans. Come to the land to do activities, to visit human civilization, but you just don't know. But now humans have discovered Atlantis at the bottom of the sea. Knowing of their existence, they did not want to interact with humans, and there were only so many records.
The scientists listened and said that it turned out that their existence was real. The relevant materials were preserved and taken to Moscow to report to the superior leaders. Not long after, they took the fish man back to Moscow. Since then, there has been no news.
The manuscripts and materials related to the translation were then confiscated. To the outside world, this is just an ordinary animal. There were no mermaids, and they were later published in the newspapers. This matter will not be solved. That's it for today, see you next time.
