Cruise’s fingers are very thick and short, but they are extremely flexible. He finished the demolition of the storage pool without tools. After this, Cruise immediately punched the cover plate of the main light, then pulled out the line directly and cut it off.
"I need to make a small transformer to solve the problem of unequal pressure between the storage tank and the lamp," Cruise said in a low voice. "It will take ten minutes."
"It is estimated that the military spacecraft will enter the range of 50 kilometers around us in 15 minutes," Zhao Lan also replied in a low voice. "This is the limit distance to prevent them from being affected by the residual radiation of the hydrogen bomb explosion. They will definitely not come near them again. The specific stay here is unknown but it is not expected to exceed 10 minutes. This is our last chance."
"Good" Cruise promised to be busy at once. Cruise skillfully manipulated a strange thing with both hands, and it gradually took shape. It was rough and messy, and the lines were simply screwed together without welding or isolation. However, after the main lighting line was connected to it, the lighting actually turned on.
Zhao Lan’s spirit immediately vibrated, but the lights went out in a moment, and the maintenance cabin was dark again.
"What’s the matter?" Zhao Lan low asked.
"This storage tank has a limited capacity, and it can support the lighting for one minute at most," Cruise replied. "That was just a test to determine whether it can."
"Well, then wait," Zhao Lan said.
When the storage pool can support for one minute, then Zhao Lan and several people naturally refuse to take this precious photo. It is the most appropriate way to light up the lights when the military ship is close to a certain distance.
Then we can really wait now.
"Let’s try to slow down our breathing and don’t make any big movements, so as to save oxygen, and let’s get together. The temperature is getting lower and lower, and getting together will help keep warm," said Zhao Lan.
So Anliyah and Cruise gathered together to Zhao Lan, who would have been in a coma. Zhou Xiao put three people who were still awake together to surround Zhou Xiao and try to warm Zhou Xiao’s body with his body temperature.
When it is almost absolutely dark, the passage seems to slow down. It’s very quiet here. It’s so quiet that Zhao Lan can almost hear his heartbeat and breathing. The heartbeat and breathing seem to have a wonderful rhythm that makes people’s hearts beat. There is an impulse to feel dizzy and want to sleep.
So Zhao Lan realized that the carbon dioxide concentration in the maintenance cabin must have risen to a high level, and she had shown signs of slight carbon dioxide poisoning. It was not enough to go like this. Zhao Lan knew that she was going to sleep, so she would not wake up.
So Zhao Lan opened his mouth and said slowly, "Idle is idle. Let’s have a chat."? How did you join the adventurer team in the first place? What about you, Cruise? "
Chapter one hundred and ninety-five Long time
Darkness and silence are like ghosts, and Zhao Lan is tightly wrapped around these people. There is no sky, no land, nothing but emptiness.
In this way, the environment will bring people a great sense of stress. This kind of mental stress, coupled with the ever-increasing concentration of carbon dioxide and the ever-decreasing temperature, will easily lead to mental breakdown or directly fall into a deep sleep and die. At this time, talking and chatting is the best and most economical way to deal with it. Because you want to speak, you need to mobilize your brain’s language and logic, and it will also activate your brain to replenish your memory blocks, which is very beneficial to stabilizing your spirit and improving your psychological endurance.
After Zhao Lan asked that question, she waited quietly for a moment. After that, Anliya replied, "There is really nothing to say … All three of me are orphans and grew up in an orphanage, and then the boss took us away to teach us all kinds of knowledge and do all kinds of training for us … We naturally formed a team of adventurers with the boss. The name was later taken as a joke and has been called like this ever since."
Anliya said that her voice was a little stumbling, but overall it was smooth and the logic was clear. This shows that Anliya is in good condition, so Zhao Lan turned to Cruise and asked, "Bald, you should be about the same age as Anliya Zhou Xiao. What do you look so old? My hair is going to fall out. "
Cruise said bitterly, "Who am I going to ask if you ask me? If I can find my father and mother, I would also like to ask them what made me like this, so that every girl I like can look at me like a toad. "
Anliya sneered at this. "Baldness means laziness, lack of exercise, smoking and drinking, staying up late and staying up late. Even this is your parents’ fault, and your parents are too unjust."
Zhao Lan wanted to comfort Cruise, but by this time she was already in a coma. Zhou Xiao suddenly moved and started, and then she gave a groan that seemed to mean something. Zhao Lan’s mood became heavier and heavier.
This groan also made the maintenance cabin fall into silence again, and several people were full of worries at the thought of the situation in Zhou Xiao, but there was no way here.
But it’s no good to be silent like this after all. Anliya obviously knows this, so after a moment’s silence, Anliya asked, "Zhao Lan, you know more about this universe. Can you tell me if no one has come to rescue us, if we keep drifting like this … where will we eventually go?"
Zhao Lan thought for a moment and then replied, "Our current speed has far exceeded that of third cosmic velocity, which means that the solar gravity method will bind us again, and we will leave the sun directly and sail to the exhausted star, where will we go …"
Zhao Lan tried hard to think about the navigation route map before departure, and made a brief calculation according to the orbital parameters and the relative position of the stars she knew. Then she replied, "We will leave the solar circle in about four years and reach the top of the heliosphere in about 24,000 years, and then we will pass Sirius. Well, although it is a pass, it is about a light year away from Sirius … After that, we will probably go to the Crab Nebula, which is 6,500 light years away from us. It will take us more than 15 million years to sail there … It is really too far to estimate the distance.
"Can you leave the Milky Way?" Cruise then asked
Zhao Lan calculated and then replied, "Probably not. We are not fast enough to break away from the gravitational pull of the Milky Way. Even if we can break away from the Milky Way, it will take hundreds of millions of years … and billions of years to reach the nearest river."
"The universe is so big," Cruise swore with great grace. "It took hundreds of millions of years for us to reach another river, and God knows if there were any human beings on the earth at that time."
Zhao Lan also gently sighed and put his eyes out of the window. Although he couldn’t see anything, Zhao Lan still looked at it every time.
The vastness and emptiness of the universe make people feel desperate from the bottom of their hearts. What is the Milky Way compared with this universe? What is the sun? What is the earth? What’s the point of this struggle I’m carrying out and what I’m doing? Anyway, it’s just a speck of dust, a small article, life and death. What if it finally dies? Anyway, to exhaust one’s life is to exhaust a whole article, all wisdom and all energy, and it is not always possible to understand this vast universe. What’s the point of all this?
Absolute silence, dark universe is the best time to meditate. At this moment, Zhao Lan’s thoughts have drifted far away. Now Zhao Lan feels that she really shouldn’t be so good at that time, so she should try everything she can step by step.
This seemingly indulgent idea is different from the regret that the former hydrogen bomb spacecraft didn’t come to do many things. Now Zhao Lan thinks a little deeper, because Zhao Lan finds that compared with this universe, his life seems to be purely important and meaningless, and all the good feelings of morality and law are meaningless.
In that case ….. Why should we pursue others’ appreciation or our own satisfaction? Why not give up all this and simply pursue physical pleasure? Drunk and dreamy, singing every night?
