Chapter 40: Alien Visits after the "Tianqi Explosion"

Buweiro nodded and continued, "During the reign 'Tianqi Year' of the Ming Dynasty, a flying saucer from an alien species was sighted by locals and documented in the 'Chaozhou Prefecture Gazetteer' 潮州府志.

Another well-known incident is the 'Tianqi Explosion' 天启大爆炸, which occurred as a result of a temporal experiment conducted by an alien species. A mishap during the experiment caused an explosion in Beijing, igniting a nearby gunpowder depot. Fortunately, the Alliance detected the issue in time and immediately intervened; otherwise, the casualties would have been even greater. (See Figure 40.1)

The explosion involved space-time frequencies, leading to bizarre outcomes. Some were blown far away but unharmed; others lost their clothes but remained intact; some vanished entirely, displaced and dissolved by spatial frequencies. Ancient people couldn't understand it, and even now, this secret remains unsolved—until today, as I reveal it to you."  

Once again, I gaped in astonishment. I was familiar with the 'Tianqi Explosion' and had thought about the possibility of alien involvement, but I always assumed the chances were slim. I never imagined it could actually be true.  

Seeing that I had gathered my thoughts, Buweiro continued: "During the Qing Dynasty, there were also numerous alien visits. Let me share two examples you can look up online, both of which happened during the  Emperor Guangxu's 光绪reign.  

The first incident occurred in Hubei Province. An alien spacecraft had landed in a remote mountainous area and failed to activate its stealth mode. At that time, the human population was sparse, many areas were undeveloped, and there were no roads, so the aliens assumed no one would come across the site. Unexpectedly, someone happened to pass by and saw the spacecraft.  

As your saying goes, 'Curiosity killed the cat.' This person, driven by curiosity, approached the spacecraft. It would have been fine if he had just observed, but he went so far as to try to desecrate it. Luckily, the alien species didn't take offense. Instead, they decided to have a little fun. They activated their spacecraft and made him 'disappear'. A few seconds later, they arrived in Guizhou and dropped him off and left, just teasing him and making him suffer. At that time, transportation was not as convenient as it is now, and he walked hard for half a year to return home!

The second incident took place in Nanjing, where an alien flying saucer openly observed humans for some time before leaving. Among the crowd of onlookers was a painter who, after the event, captured the scene in a painting, which was then passed down through history. The painting is known as the 'Red Flames Soaring into the Sky'.(Figure 40.2)

Additionally, during the Qing Dynasty, there were instances of people mysteriously disappearing for short periods and then reappearing thousands of miles away. These unexplained phenomena were also caused by alien experiments."  

I couldn't help but sigh: "I wonder if these people who were 'chosen' were lucky or unfortunate. In today's world, many people dream of being noticed or contacted by aliens, even if it involves risk. It seems their fascination outweighs everything else. For those who are passionate about alien civilizations, meeting extraterrestrials must feel like the greatest fortune.  

As for the strange phenomena you mentioned in the skies, I've read about them too. Like some experts, I thought they were celestial events or meteor showers. I never expected them to be the work of aliens.  

Also, I often read about Chinese history and find that bizarre historical events are quite numerous—far more than the unexplained mysteries you've explained. Is it because you're only sharing examples that can be found online, or are alien visits not as frequent as I imagined?" I expressed my doubts.  

"Celestial events, meteors?" Buweiro said with a faintly amused smile. "Your ancestors began observing and recording celestial phenomena in ancient times. Over the centuries, their astronomical knowledge became increasingly sophisticated. While their astronomy may not be as advanced as today's, they were perfectly capable of distinguishing celestial events, meteors, and anomalies. In fact, their knowledge surpassed that of many so-called 'scholars' today, who only know how to boast."  

Buweiro's pointed critique left me speechless, so I could only nod firmly in agreement.  

He continued: "Of course, the number of times alien civilizations have visited humanity is limited. With their advanced technology, they can monitor everything about you—including your thoughts and mental fluctuations—without needing to make a special trip. This is why humans rarely encounter alien civilizations. Their visits to you are always for specific reasons.  

In your country, many unexplained supernatural or bizarre events throughout history were actually the result of shady dealings conducted by commoners, officials, the imperial court, or special organizations. To cover their tracks or protect themselves, they deliberately spread rumors blaming gods or ghosts. Since ancient people deeply believed in the supernatural, as long as the stories were well-crafted, even the imperial family couldn't escape suspicion.

As history progressed, these mysterious events became increasingly distorted and exaggerated. In reality, most were human-made. Even in modern times, with technological advancements reducing belief in the supernatural, powerful organizations have shifted to blaming aliens for their illegal activities. It's the same pattern.

For instance, cases of human disappearances—caused by criminals—are often attributed to aliens abducting people for experiments, selling them to their home planets, or transporting them to alternate or four-dimensional spaces. Such claims are outrageous. Some organizations go so far that even aliens cannot tolerate the false accusations. In such cases, the aliens intervene, using the perpetrators' own tactics against them as a form of retribution. This leaves uninformed humans to believe it is divine punishment."

"I see," I replied, "but I have another question. According to what you've mentioned before, alien civilizations have continued observing and even influencing us in modern and contemporary times, occasionally revealing their presence. If world leaders and some key figures are already aware of alien civilizations, why don't they disclose this to the public? Why do they instead collaborate to suppress the truth?" This question has puzzled not only me but also a vast majority of ordinary people worldwide.  

"Well, there are several reasons. Since you're asking, let me briefly explain." Buweiro looked at me, noting my curious yet serious expression, and said:  

"The first reason the United Nations doesn't acknowledge the existence of alien or prehistoric civilizations is the fear that admitting it could lead to the collapse of human civilization as we know it. Think about it carefully: if aliens on the Earth were confirmed, humanity's current knowledge base, understanding of origins, and technological systems would all face severe challenges, potentially leading to societal collapse.  

The second reason is concern about people's ability to handle it emotionally. If alien existence were confirmed, would people continue working and producing as they do now? Unlikely. Many would seek out aliens for various purposes, throwing the world into chaos and danger.  

The third reason is rooted in human belief systems. While your country has relatively few religious adherents, many other countries are deeply religious, with their own creation myths and deities. If it were revealed that alien civilizations indirectly created humanity, most people's faith would crumble, affecting countless families and even global stability, including decision-making among world leaders.  

The fourth, and perhaps most significant, reason is resistance from capitalists. As I mentioned before, once humanity enters the stage of a Primary civilization, many of the systems you currently depend on will become obsolete. Transportation, energy, resources, healthcare, consumer goods, industry, manufacturing, construction, information processing, education, aerospace, and more—everything will be revolutionized by new technologies.  

For example, with advancements in medicine, the role of 'Traditional midwife'接生婆 from past centuries has long been replaced by hospitals. Likewise, other major industries will bear the brunt of technological progress. Powerful capitalists, unwilling to lose their dominance, will do everything in their power to obstruct progress."  

Noticing that I understood, Buweiro added, "Once you transition to Primary civilization, everyone will have access to free resources and live without worry. At that point, everyone will be equal, there will be no religious beliefs, no control by money, no exploitation of material wealth, and capitalists will no longer dominate as 'superiors'. This is a reality they refuse to accept.  

The fifth reason is resistance from politicians. They worry that if things spiral out of control, humanity will fall into panic, excitement, or delusions, leading to a refusal to work or produce, potentially resulting in catastrophic consequences for nations and ethnic groups.  

Furthermore, in Primary civilization, political power will be handed over to a fair, open and equitable intelligent system. There will be no more exploitation, oppression, corruption, intrigue and injustice in the world. Think about it, are politicians willing to hand over power?"  

"Sigh, I agree with your analysis. However, the 'closed-door policy' of those at the top has only brought temporary comfort to humanity. By remaining complacent for too long, technological civilization will never achieve a breakthrough. From the technological boom of the Cold War era to now, so many years have passed, yet human technology hasn't significantly advanced. The lives of ordinary people are much the same as in the last century. Everyone is rushing and toiling for work, anxiously struggling for a living, suffering family tragedies due to illness and injury, grieving over the pain of birth, aging, sickness, and death, and many wrongdoings go unpunished... all are living examples.

If we enter a Primary civilization, everything would fundamentally change. I sincerely hope that the world's top capitalists and politicians can look further ahead for the sake of all humanity and the Earth!"
