Chapter 80: Persuade the gentleman to drink a glass of wine, and there is no one in Yangguan in the west

"Hundreds of tongues outside the curtain, startled the fifth watch spring sleep. Mu Qian sat up in a trance, as if he had come to a quiet home of peach and plum, green yin and green children in front of the hall, the chirping of birds and birds was noisy in his ears, the breeze was light, the air was pure and cold, and the sky had already dawned.

"Catch. Zhang Zechen threw over two bright red wild fruits.

"Thank you. How long have you been here?" Mu Qian grabbed the wild fruit and took a big bite, the tender flesh overflowing with sweetness.

"It's been a while, what are you going to do in the future?" Zhang Zechen looked at Mu Qian with sharp eyes.

"I'm going to stay on this planet, and now that we've met, it's our destiny. We want to avenge the tragic suffering of the earthlings in the chaotic region, and we want to seek justice for them, starting with the barbarians, and use blood to write the meaning of our life on earth. Mu Qian's tone was low. In front of Zhang Zechen, he showed his fierce and violent side for the first time.

"Then you can play by yourself, I'm not interested in accompaniment. Zhang Zechen glanced at Mu Qian with disdain.

"Have you forgotten that you are an earthling? have you forgotten the mistakes you made on the planet Lagcuo?" Mu Qian stared at Zhang Zechen.

"But this is a chaotic area, and any hatred and justice are extremely naïve. Here, life has its own laws of elimination, and no one can be a hero or a savior, so you'd better forget your identity as an earthling. Also, don't try to convince me, because your ability to do so is really, really rotten. Zhang Zechen sneered.

Mu Qian was stunned after hearing this: Zhang Zechen, whom he knew before, would never say such a thing, maybe he had experienced a lot of things in such a long time in the chaotic domain. But Mu Qian would not give up, he had already made up his mind to drag Zhang Zechen to hell together, so he thought for a while, and still said:

"Before, I was a complete failure, and now it seems that you are too, you have no brute strength, but you can only use it to cover up your stupidity and failure. Since you don't think I'm going to be able to convince you, let's play a little game and decide whether you win or lose, do you remember that pitcher game that took place in the universe?"

"What kind of game do you think I'm going to care about? Before you speak, it's best to think: If you don't have me at this moment, can you survive here? Hmph, I don't think you recognize yourself at all. Zhang Zechen took a step forward and approached Mu Qian.

"Maybe I really don't recognize myself, but at least it's better than you, because you have forgotten your past, do you remember what happened in the long years?" Facing Zhang Zechen's aggressiveness, Mu Qian did not show any flinching.

Zhang Zechen stopped talking, he looked at Mu Qian with a strange look, as if he knew Mu Qian for the first time.

"It seems that you have really forgotten the past, so I will help you remember it, and I hope you can remember where you came from. Mu Qian's tone carried a deep and inexplicable emotion.

In the vast and endless dark and cold universe, more than twenty small dots were connected in a row, emitting a faint white glow, and rushed towards the boundless darkness ahead with great speed. They are like the vast frozen meteorites in the universe, with no destination, no harbor, and no home. They are the earthlings who have been displaced into the universe from the planet Lagcuo, and they are the group of people led by Xie Yu.

Since there is no resistance in the universe, they can rely on the Qitian 2 generation armor to accelerate all the time, and their speed is already very terrifying at present. But even so, they are not worth mentioning in the vastness of the universe. Xie Yu knew very well that they were currently in a flat and empty cosmic space, not a galaxy, and the distance here must have reached the level of light years, so they had no hope.

But they had no choice but to keep flying forward like this, even if one day they all died, their corpses would still move forward.

After being in exile in the universe for more than a year, they all looked down on life and death, including Zhang Zechen, who did not have any arrogance, and even others felt that he was very pitiful. On the planet Lagcuo, Zhang Zechen wanted to become a god, but just one day later, the universe proved to him with cruel facts that his so-called path to godhood was not even a joke.

In fact, none of them are innocent, Zhang Zechen's comedy is not only his personal tragedy, but also represents some of the thoughts in the hearts of these people, but they are all more knowledgeable, and their attitudes and ways are much more elegant, so they will not be too obvious.

Zhang Zechen didn't say anything more, just followed their group of people blankly, like a walking corpse. However, it was Xie Yu who was really desperate. After wandering into this flat cosmic space for several months, Xie Yu realized that she had made a big mistake: she took this group of people away from the interior of the galaxy with many stars, and instead ran into the vast abyss of the universe.

At this moment, she didn't know why all this happened, and she didn't know where the road ahead was, she just needed one person to be responsible for the life and death of these twenty or so people.

Xie Yu endured everything silently, she didn't dare to tell anyone: it was she who cut off the last chance of this group of people. Therefore, she is more painful and numb than Zhang Zechen, her heart has been under such huge pressure, full of holes and blood, and only she knows it.

"Look, it's a big meteorite. Ivan suddenly sent a message to them. A huge meteorite with a strange shape was flying in front of them on the left, and they hadn't seen a cosmic meteorite in almost a year.

"It's just a huge rock floating around and doesn't have a clear rotation cycle, so it doesn't make sense to us. Someone said.

"It doesn't make sense for us to go on like this, even though we now have 2% of the speed of light, we have less than a year to live. Someone else spoke.

"Why don't we land on this meteorite, and then integrate all the resources in the Monkey King 2 armor, maybe a few of us can have a chance to get out of this empty star field. Gautama said.

"This is a solution, the power of the Monkey King 2 armor is endless, as long as it can produce oxygen and nutrients, it can maintain the lives of the people inside. Ivan agreed.

"Xie Yu, do you have any suggestions?" someone asked.

"Nope. Xie Yu's tone was cold, and she didn't have any intention of communicating with others, and she hadn't spoken to Xie Qiu'an for a long time.

After some discussion, they decided to land on the interstellar pumice stone for the time being, though it would lose the speed they had built up for a whole year. So they began to slow down together, eventually reaching a speed that synchronized with the meteorite, and then landed little by little.

The meteorite is 10,000 kilometers long and is made of an unknown material, covered with a layer of crystals. They found a depression in the surface of the meteorite, stopped, and began to plan for their next move.

"If you want to integrate the resources in the armor, you need to sacrifice someone, and even most people have to give up their lives immediately, which is a very difficult choice. Ivan said.

"Even if we give all our resources to one person and extend his life for another ten years, he may not be able to get out of this space, and even if he does, the chance of finding a planet like Earth and Lagso is almost zero. On the scale of the universe, no amount of careful thinking on our part will help. Hoshino Makenyu didn't agree with Ivan's statement.

"But at the slightest chance, we should give it a try. Someone said. In this way, they divided into two factions and began to express their opinions. They don't care about their own lives, but they make differences in certain beliefs and choices.

"I can give up my life and hand over the resources in this armor. Xie Yu said suddenly.

"You're crazy, you're going to die in no time. Xie Qiuan said loudly to Xie Yu.

"I don't have a choice, we have to be brave and try, there is always someone to live. Xie Yu said.

"Nonsense, it's a big deal that we die together, what's the point of letting one person live? We have more than 20 people here. Xie Qiu'an jumped up, and at the same time, the radiant energy of the Qi Tian 2 generation armor on his body was adjusted to the maximum, so that he would not be stupid enough to use his life to fulfill others.

All of them froze at once, and it was really hard to choose: intellectually they had enough reason to persist and try everything possible, but emotionally they knew that life could not be exchanged, and that the exchange in front of them might be meaningless, and that the rest of the person would be burdened with a heavy psychological burden.

"Either we're going to pick the survivors and then collectively decide whether we want to do it or not. Someone said.

But this matter is destined to be fruitless, because it is impossible for them to choose the last person, and even if they abandon all their selfishness, it will be difficult for them to agree with each other. Some people even proposed to make Zhang Zechen the last person, because his life is the most powerful, and the chance of survival should be a little higher than that of others, but this is the universe, who can say clearly?

Soon days passed, and they did not have any conclusions, and at the same time did not bother to leave the meteorite and continue to fly into the hopeless unknown. This emotion quickly spread, their minds and spirits were hit like never before, and everyone became sluggish in thinking and sluggish in behavior. In the universe in front of us, even despair has become a luxury.

Life has become impossible, but death is immense. Such a cosmic meteorite must contain a large amount of frozen hydrogen, helium and other elements, as long as their armor emits a certain amount of thermal energy, they may be able to detonate the entire meteorite. Except for Zhang Zechen and Mu Qian, everyone thought of this possibility, but none of them said it.

But such crazy thoughts crawled slowly in their minds like a tiny earthworm, and since they were all dead, why not be as gorgeous as fireworks?—— and it was only a matter of time before destruction came.

However, the universe, like life, is unpredictable. Just as the final destruction was imminent, they spotted a behemoth tens of thousands of kilometers long floating past them. This is actually an incomparably huge spaceship, like an asteroid, sailing in the vast universe like an abyss.

The group of earthlings on the meteorite immediately became agitated, but the huge spaceship did not notice their presence, but continued to sail silently, and at great speed. With the relative speed of this spaceship and this meteorite, it will only take five or six minutes for it to completely disappear from the field of vision of Xie Yu and the others.

"I can't catch up,. Xie Qiuan was so anxious that he began to jump to his feet. Hope came so unexpectedly, but it also went so fast that they couldn't catch up.

In this moment, all of them experienced a mental journey of surprise, dumbfoundedness, and finally despair. But there are still people who remain calm, and these people are not ordinary people in terms of knowledge, knowledge, and thinking.

"We can leave one person to detonate this meteorite, and we might attract the attention of the ship, but the people who stay here might die. Someone said.

"I'll stay. Xie Yu immediately spoke, her tone was very resolute:

"You leave immediately and go after the ship. ”

"I'll stay, in our country there has never been a practice of making women sacrifice for men. A European said.

"Xie Yu, my life was saved by you and the fat man, anyway, I don't want to live for a long time, you can fulfill me. Mu Qian actually spoke very rarely.

"What are you fighting for, if you delay for another minute, no one will have to stay, everyone will die here together. Zhang Zechen spoke for the first time in more than a year, and then he laughed wildly and said:

"You all go, I'll detonate this meteorite in two minutes, and I'll do it whether you go or not, haha. ”

This seems to be the best choice, Zhang Zechen can take this opportunity to atone for his sins, and even with the strength of his body, coupled with the protection of Qi Tian's armor, he may not necessarily die. At this moment when every minute and every second was related to their life and death, in the end, Ivan waved his hand to Zhang Zechen and decisively led everyone away at the greatest speed, and Xie Yu was also forcibly taken away by Xie Qiuan and Mu Qian.

"Well, it looks like you all think I'm damned. Zhang Zechen smiled miserably. Ivan and the others, who had already flown away, heard this, but none of them turned back. The sanity of life makes people very helpless, both noble and pathetic.

A bright light like a nuclear explosion flashed in the dark universe, and a powerful energy wave swept towards Ivan and the others, although they were already tens of thousands of miles away, they were still affected by this energy wave, drifting away in all directions of the universe.

Soon, the cosmic space returned to its cold silence, as if nothing had happened. A circular spaceship appeared, spotted Ivan and the others, and then began to rescue people from the water one by one, like rescuing people who had fallen into the water, and scooping them out of space. The speed of this circular spaceship was extremely fast, far surpassing the Monkey Sky Armor developed by Ivan and others, and it only took half an hour to rescue them all, even including Zhang Zechen, who was already dying.

Gathered inside the small spaceship, Ivan and the others wept with joy, not only did they survive, but they also saw aliens - two aliens about the same size as them, with human limbs, a curved horn on their heads, and a kind of cuticle covering their bodies, standing in front of them at the moment.

"Is he still saved?" Xie Yu was the first to notice Zhang Zechen lying on the ground, and asked. Her original intention was to ask these two aliens, but unfortunately only the earthlings next to her could return to her, because it was impossible for the aliens to understand what she said.

"He was still alive, but his vital signs were very weak, he was on the verge of death, and his armor was almost completely destroyed. Ivan said, and then squatted down with Xie Qiu'an, carefully examining Zhang Zechen. They didn't dare to take off the armor on Zhang Zechen's body, because it would most likely kill him immediately.

At this time, an alien took out a sheet of metal similar to paper from nowhere, as well as a pen that had been thin, and handed it to Ivan and the others. Ivan and the others immediately understood what this meant, and the two aliens wanted to establish communication with them.

Xie Yu grabbed the metal sheet and pen and began to write a set of abbreviated earth language symbols on it. She is an astrophysicist and naturally has an understanding of this. The language of human beings on the earth has been restored to the beginning, and it is just numbers, using dots, or horizontal lines and vertical lines to represent everything.

After clarifying the ten basic numbers from one to ten, Xie Yu quickly explained the symbols that represent the common language of human beings on the earth. This is the result of the combination of many languages and scripts on the earth, and it shows great adaptability at this moment. Among them, in Xie Yu's set of symbolic systems specially used to communicate with aliens, ancient Chinese hieroglyphs play a great role.

After only two hours had passed, Xie Yu had been able to have a cursory communication with the two aliens. For example, Xie Yu pointed to Zhang Zechen who was lying down, and drew two symbols representing "disease" and "death", and the alien in front of him immediately understood what she meant.

But the alien language Xie Yu and the others didn't understand, but fortunately, there were some gestures and expressions that were probably common to all life in the universe, and an alien pressed his palm against Xie Yu, and then showed an expression that seemed to be smiling, as if to say: Don't worry.

In this way, in extreme anxiety and excitement, Xie Yu and the two aliens continued such a complex project. The small circular spaceship began to accelerate forward, apparently chasing the large spaceship in front of it.

According to the estimation of Ivan and others, the speed of this small spacecraft at this moment has reached at least 30% of the speed of light, and this discovery made them and these people stunned for a while. From this point of view, this universe is really big, and there are many miracles of life that have been bred, and what they have achieved in Lagso is not worth mentioning at all.

On the third day, Xie Yu's communication with the two aliens finally achieved initial results, and they were already able to have a simple conversation. The two aliens told them that at this moment, the small ship had automatically detected their vital signs, thus automatically adjusting the composition of the air inside, and they could take off the armor on their bodies.

Xie Yu and the others took off their armor in great excitement: the air inside the spaceship was very pure, and the oxygen content was just right. Xie Yu took a big breath of air, and two lines of tears slid down. She and Xie Qiu'an hugged each other tightly, the ups and downs of life, but that's it.

After that, things became much simpler, after Xie Yu and the others were able to speak, the aliens used their high technology to quickly analyze the voice system of the earthlings and simulate the voices of the earthlings. The two aliens then gave each of them a palm-sized, oblate metal object, a telecommunications device that recorded a set of Earth's language systems that Xie Yu had spent three days transmitting, and that communication between them and the aliens was completely unimpeded.

Subsequently, Xie Yu and others told about their encounters in the universe, and also briefly explained the earth, humans and the solar system, and these two aliens also introduced themselves. According to them, they are a starship civilization that has no home planet and has always lived on that huge spaceship. On the ship, there were two other civilizations, but there were not many of them, one of them had a few hundred people, and the other had only one person. They are also like Xie Yu and others, who are cosmic shipwrecks salvaged by the Xingzhou civilization during the long space voyage.

"How can a civilization not have a home planet? and how can it evolve?" someone questioned.

"We used to have a home planet, but then we were like you and ended up in the universe. Just like the nomadic people on your earth, they are a civilization that lives on horseback, and we are a civilization that lives on a star boat, so we are called the star boat civilization. An alien explained.

"I see, the same people who have fallen from the end of the world, why should they have met before. Xie Qiu'an was in a good mood, and actually pulled out two ancient Chinese poems.

"That's right, your culture on Earth seems to be quite interesting, and verses like this sound good. You can call me Xinghui, his name is Guangyao, we are the captain and vice captain of the rescue team of Xingzhou Civilization XXX, through the communicator around you, you can contact us at any time. An alien said.

"Hehe, Brother Xinghui has won the award, my wife is a master in this area, and any poems and songs are at her fingertips. Xie Qiuan said with a smile, and then he actually said something that surprised everyone:

"My name is Xie Yuba, which means the great overlord of the universe. ”

When Xie Yu heard this, he glanced at Xie Qiu'an, dissatisfied that he still had to talk about it at such a time, and he was not serious. Then, Xie Yu said:

"How long will it take for us to catch up with the big ship ahead?"

"For about twenty days, the Star Boat has slowed down and is waiting for us. ”

"I ......" Xie Qiuan held his breath and almost couldn't get up, this small spaceship has reached 30% of the speed of light, so how fast is the speed of the Xingzhou in front?

"How fast is the Starship, why did you slow down in front of you, otherwise we wouldn't be able to see your ship at all. Hoshino asked.

"This is also a coincidence, some time ago, the Starship was slowing down for routine maintenance work, so we were able to meet here. If Starship were to go at full speed, it could reach 50% of the speed of light, but it would take a whole year to accelerate continuously, and there would be a lot of energy consumption, which we don't usually do. Xinghui said.

Hoshino True Kenyu suddenly choked there, just like Xie Qiu'an: a spaceship as big as the Earth, reaching half the speed of light, what is this concept?

"Then you still don't have a destination, are you moving through the universe at will?" Ivan asked.

"It's not, we just recently obtained a coordinate, where there may be an open place in the universe, called the Chaos Domain, where maybe there are a lot of civilizations gathering, so the Starship is heading there at high speed. Xinghui said.

"Chaos?" Ivan and the others looked at each other. They could never have imagined that there would be a gathering place of civilization in the universe.

"You can come with me there if you wish. It is better to have the opportunity to see the splendid civilization in the universe than to wander in the boundless darkness. Guangyao said.

"Where and how long will it take?" someone asked.

"To put it in terms of your concept of time on Earth, it's about 1,400 years. Glory replied.

Hearing Guangyao's words, Xie Qiu'an almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood:

"Fourteen hundred years? How can we live that long? Do you have such a long lifespan?"

"We have a lifespan of about 500 years, but that's not a problem. We can use our technology to help you extend your lifespan for a hundred or two hundred years, after which you, like us, will need to go into hibernation so that we can reach the Chaos alive. Xinghui said.

"Fourteen hundred years away?" Xie Yu and the other twenty people looked at each other, they had to make another choice. With this departure, they really became Xingzhou people, and since then they have lived on Xingzhou and have nothing to do with the earth.

"Persuade you to have a glass of wine, and there is no one in Yangguan in the west. Xie Yu groaned in a low voice.

"A thousand glasses of spirits beg to get drunk, horseback, looking back at the gloom. From now on, let's be nomads on horseback. Hoshino True Kenyu said with a smile at Xie Yu.

"Get out of the way, why are you molesting my wife?" Xie Qiuan glared angrily at Hoshino True Kenyou. Hoshino True Kenyu just smiled freely, and chose to ignore Xie Qiuan's dissatisfaction.

"Yes, an earthling can have such an experience as us, and there is no need to regret it until he dies - we will go to the Chaos Domain. Someone else said.

"In this moment of tragic and generous parting, it is a sight to be without wine. Alas, I've forgotten what wine tastes like. Xie Qiuan muttered in a low voice alone.

"Of course, there are a lot of them on the Star Boat, I'm afraid you can't drink that kind of liquor, hahaha. Guangyao said with a smile.

"The same is the end of the world, why should we have known each other. Everyone laughed together, and perhaps this is the charm of life in the universe.
