Chapter 249 Asteroid

The observatory's sky eye also received this signal. After discovering that it was a signal from the White Leopard Star, Shang Nan, Paul and others were urgently recalled to the observatory. However, the observatory's interpretation of the signal was different from what Shang Nan deciphered.
What they translated was an invitation letter, and the White Leopard Star invited humans to land at any time.
Paul is the deputy leader of their group. The leader is a conservative middle-aged man who is nearly forty years old and wears black-rimmed glasses. He was shocked by Paul Qiushi's dress, "Even if it is not working time, someone who is almost thirty years old, dressed like this..."
"This is the first time that the observatory has received a signal from a planet, or from the White Leopard Star. The director attaches great importance to it. Not only the observatory, but also the aviation control center has sent an email asking for details. What do you think?"
"Although we are fully qualified to land now, since the White Leopard Star can send out signals, saying that there are life forms unknown to us on the star body, I think it is very dangerous and the risk is very high." Qiushi wiped her chest with some embarrassmentHe lifted it up, but he came in a hurry, and he didn't even have time to go to the locker room.
Paul was wearing a pair of studded boots that were incompatible with the leather shoes of the rest of the group. Fortunately, he was under the table and looked much better than Qiushi. "I don't agree with logging in now. We need to make a detailed plan.One year from now, or five years from now, we need to make sure that the life form that sent the signal has no ill intentions toward Planet A."
His worries are right, Shannan thought with drooped eyelids.
"Shang Nan? Tell me what you think." the team leader asked.
Shang Nan raised his eyes and said calmly: "I agree with Paul's point of view."
The White Leopard Star sent out a signal, and only the relevant units knew about it. The disaster that lasted for more than eighty years was still vivid in their minds, and they would not rush to land on other people's territory this time.
Pluck your mouth and your mouth will be dirty——
The plan to land on the White Leopard Star was repeatedly formulated and overturned. It lasted for ten years before the specific time for the landing was determined and the aviation center could bring three members of the observatory.
It was originally Shang Nan, Paul and the team leader, but the old team leader's first physical examination result did not meet the standards. He practiced diligently for three months and still failed, and the final spot fell to Qiushi.
Logically speaking, it would be difficult for Shang Nan's body to meet the standards. The trauma he suffered back then was so severe that he was almost dead. But after more than ten years, he has become the most suitable person to board the spacecraft to carry out missions at the observatory.
After several simulations on the ground, Shang Nan handed over the personal belongings he wanted to carry for inspection and shipment. He didn’t bring much, and most of his personal belongings were daily necessities. He wanted to bring a gift to Ning Yi, but he really couldn’t think of what to bring, soA month ago, he polished a rough ring at home. The color was like the color of white leopard star rocks, deep gray, and he set a smooth moon stone on the ring.
He said the ring was a souvenir, and the person who inspected it didn't say anything. It was not something that couldn't be brought on board.
Most people who landed on the White Leopard Star this time were mentally prepared to never return, and in outer space... the genes in the human body may also change. Qiushi got married and had children a few years ago, even if the genes in her bodyEven if it changes, it will not affect her descendants, let alone bring hidden disasters to mankind.
As for Shannan and Paul... they said that they were gay and could not have children, and Paul almost went to get a sterilization.
On December 13, the Sin Chew 37 spacecraft was pushed into space. After completing the separation from the push rocket, the spacecraft went straight to the White Leopard Star according to the flight plan.
The life in the spacecraft is somewhat anti-human, at least anti-Honun. They have to experience sunrise and sunset every two hours. The food is strictly prepared and controlled by nutritionists. The astronauts who have a lot of experience adapt well and enjoy the time.With the help of 14, Nan did not suffer from severe maladjustment. Instead, Paul looked like he couldn't survive every day.
After flying on the route for more than twenty days, the complete White Leopard Star finally appeared in front of everyone. Shannan posted it on the window and looked outside. This was his first time in the universe. They passed through many asteroids.group, but the surroundings of the White Leopard Star are exceptionally clean, and it indeed looks no different from Planet A.
No wonder Dr. Sky was so excited back then. Dr. Sky was excited because he had found a second home for mankind.
The operation of the spacecraft and the flight plan are not the responsibility of Paul Shangnan and Qiushi. They are only responsible for in-situ sampling and analysis. Because they have learned from past mistakes, the superiors issued a death order. Nothing on the White Leopard Star can be taken away..
The spacecraft flew around the White Leopard Star for three weeks as planned. Shannan didn't know whether he should regard this planet as Ning Yi's home or Ning Yi more appropriately. He was in the spacecraft, surrounded by silence, and the spacecraft was wrapped in darkness., he can better empathize with Ning Yi's current life.
After determining the landing site, the spacecraft stopped orbiting and began preparing to land at the landing site.
A group of people put on protective clothing and helmets, and got off the spacecraft with detectors and sampling analyzers in hand.
At the front were several astronauts, headed by the captain of this project. He made a gesture, and the operator who was still on the spacecraft released the star patrol vehicle and started running maps on the White Leopard Star.
"Don't spread yourself too thin," the captain said succinctly.
The group of people was already stunned by the sight in front of them. They stepped on the ground of White Leopard Star and completely understood Dr. Sky's excitement after returning to Planet A.
They landed on a grassland. The grass was a species that had never appeared on Planet A. It was jagged and had dark green leaves that were wide and long. When the wind blew, it formed endless green waves.
It was night at this time, the starry sky above our heads was extremely bright, and the calls of birds could be heard from the mountains not far away.
A group of huge cattle and sheep heard the strange noise and raised their heads to look at the intruder. They were not aggressive at all. After seeing it, they continued to lower their heads and eat grass.
Qiu Yong touched the grass that was as high as her calf, and she couldn't hide the shock in her eyes, "What the hell, if you say that there are no highly intelligent life forms like us here, you can't believe it!!!"
There is water, oxygen, grasslands and mountains, stars and moonlight. We just need to confirm the temperature and weather changes, the duration of sunshine, and whether it has the same geology as Planet A... Even if the above are different, we can only get it by looking at it.According to the information obtained, White Leopard Star is definitely a planet suitable for the survival of highly intelligent life forms.
Paul held up the camera and kept clicking. Lines of data popped up on his watch. He lowered his head and looked at it for a while, "The air purity is higher than Planet A."
Qiushi said immediately: "Of course, don't you look at how many big chimneys we have there."
"..."
Their communicators sounded at the same time, and the message from the captain said, "Perform your respective missions, gather at the landing site in six hours, and report the situation around you at any time. Comrades at the observatory, please pay attention to safety." Several people at the observatory were completely unaware.Experience, even though we have been training on the ground for several months, actual combat is not the same as an exercise.
Shannan exhaled and said to Paul, "I'll go over there and take a look. We can collect more samples by spreading out."
"be safe."
The three people took the landing site as the center and scanned and analyzed samples in three directions: south, west, north and south.
[14: Nannan, Ning Yi is by your side.]
"where?"
[14: It is everywhere, under your feet and above your head.]
Shang Nan listened to the voice of 14. The computer in his hand had already collected many samples. He chose a high ground. The further he walked, the steeper the slope became. He was out of breath as he walked.
The surroundings were extremely empty, and the sound of wind could be heard. Shannan looked back and saw that he was already very far away from the landing point. The figures of Paul and Qiushi looked like two glowing fireflies.
He was so engrossed that he didn't pay attention to his feet, let alone the map in his hand. He saw the steep slope behind him, and there was an endless deep lake at the bottom of the steep slope.
[14:Host!]
14 sounded together with the sound of the siren. Shannan's feet were in the air and he fell backwards. He reacted very quickly and dropped all the computers and instruments in his hands.
People can die, but data cannot be lost.
No, people can't die, the task is not completed yet.
The slope was steeper than he imagined. He rolled faster and faster, making Shan Nan feel that his internal organs, brain and cerebellum were all shaken. He felt dizzy, and his body suddenly became empty, and then he wasThe sudden cold and wet package, the rushing sound of water poured into the eardrums, and several mouthfuls of water were forced into the mouth and nose.
Fell into the lake.
Shang Nan reacted and wanted to climb out of the water to the shore.
And just when his fingers touched the wet soil on the shore, his waist was suddenly tightly grabbed by an unknown object - Shannan thought it was an underwater creature with tentacles.
When he was about to send a distress signal to the spacecraft, his body suddenly felt light and he was lifted out of the water.
Shan Nan knelt on the shore, holding his helmet with both hands. All the water inside was immediately poured out, and his breathing was no longer so uncomfortable.
When the physical discomfort subsided, Shang Nan suddenly came to his senses. He quickly sat down on the ground and saw the water plant vines that had sunk into the water, disappearing into the water like a water snake.
Indeed, as 14 said, Ning Yi is everywhere.
The moment he saw the water plants, Shang Nan felt a faint sense of loss in his heart, but it only lasted for a few seconds. After all, the appearance of the water plants proved that this was indeed Ning Yi's territory, and everything here was under his control.
Shang Nan wiped the dirt off his hands and tried to stand up.
And just when he was about to stand up, he heard the sound of the wind that was not quite right. It was different from the wind speed before. The sound of wind like water waves was mixed with the rustling sound of grass being plucked. The surroundings were originally as lively asThe insect chirping of the band gradually became more subtle, and the waves on the lake surface were even bigger than before.
coming.
Shannan thought subconsciously.
He quickly got up from the ground and turned to look behind him.
Beneath the steep slope is an endless green plain. Thick fog appears at the end of the plain, like soft human skin. Under the thick fog, a small black dot like an ant appears, shaking slowly.
As the dense fog gradually dissipated, the outline of the small black dot gradually became clear, the outline of human beings, and the outline of Ning Yi.
The young man was wearing the same clothes as when he left. He didn't walk fast, but he approached extremely fast. He would change his position closer to Shangnan in a few seconds.His face looked a little pale, and his chiseled features were as cunning and sharp as ever. The grass separated a path for him, leading directly to the person he missed.
Shang Nan blinked and suddenly had an inappropriate thought. No matter whether the White Leopard Planet contained oxygen and water or not, it was not suitable for human habitation because all living things here obeyed Ning Yi.
When Ning Yi came to Shan Nan, he even tutted, "Why are you here?"
It feels that the seventeen years of waiting to admire the south are longer than the billions of years he spent wandering alone.
Without waiting for Shannan to answer, it pulled Shannan into its arms and hugged the middle-aged man in its arms, "I miss you so much, do you know?"
"I sent out a lot of signals, but we were too far apart. The signals always disappeared halfway or hit other stars." Ning Yi placed his palm on the back of Shannan's head. "How long will it take for you to land this time?""
"Two months." Shang Nan's voice was trembling. He was still a little dreamlike, and it was difficult to react. Ning Yi appeared in front of him, unchanged from seventeen years ago. After all, it was still the same thing.A very young asteroid.
This is much longer than the time spent surveying other stars, but for an asteroid, it is only the blink of an eye.
Ning Yi said nothing.
Redness crept up around his eyes, and he stroked the fine lines at the corners of Shannan's eyes with his fingers. They didn't appear when he left, "Team leader, let's get together. Let's fall in love for two months."
