Chapter 814: Departure Again
"What happened to my son, what happened, and there is no news yet?"
"What can happen, he is following behind a sage, and he is still going to the World Tree, what can happen?"
Having said that, Xiao Ai's father is still a little worried. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
More than half a month has passed since the expedition began, and a sound can still be heard when a stone is thrown into the water, but the expedition has been silent so far.
Every morning, Xiao Ai's parents completed the routine "cleaning", and they would go to the office of the immigrant city to inquire about Xiao Ai's news, what can the clerks at the bottom know, under the deliberate blockade of people with intentions, this expedition team, the light of life, and the most important thing is that Xiao Ai's legendary encounter has not been conveyed to the ears of the two people who need to know the most.
As for why it is so hidden, the answer is about to be revealed, yes, in the final analysis, it is still for profit.
Today, it was just dawn, Xiao Ai's father was lying in bed when he heard a small sound from the window, in a daze, he thought that some kind of insect or plant was popping up again, since he immigrated to Mars, since he participated in the construction of the city, this kind of sound is too common, has been used to Stone, there is nothing magical.
But after a while, the doorbell rang, and Xiao Ai's father got up from the bed, comforted his wife, and let her sleep a little longer, and then put on a coat for himself, and walked out of the house, all the way through the already overgrown yard, and opened the door of the small courtyard.
Perhaps to make up for the regret on Earth, the new immigrants on Mars, especially those from China, are very uninterested in living in the neat and modern facilities of high-rise buildings, and the most popular are these small courtyards.
The identical courtyard is like a grid on a chessboard, located in the northwest corner of the city, and only immigrants who have a special and important job in the early stage can be assigned, and for some reason, Xiao Ai's father also has such qualifications.
But now, the influence of the world tree has repeatedly refreshed people's understanding, the huge urban area, in the face of the expansion of animals and plants day and night, has gradually become inadequate, and now the factory, in addition to the necessary living and building materials, a large number of cleaning robots are the busiest, the purpose is to keep the city, in this competition for living space to win.
Up to now, there have been many people complaining about it!
It is true that with the help of powerful productivity and cheap and abundant energy, a million Martian immigrants did not fall behind in the initial competition, no matter what plants, no matter how vigorous their vitality was, they were all wiped out in front of the powerful tools driven by a million people.
However, there is no end to this marathon, on the contrary, as the influence of the World Tree continues to ferment, there is still a growing momentum, unless the World Tree is uprooted, there is no hope of stopping.
Soon, the enthusiastic "cleaning" became a must-do job every day when you wake up, and the first thing people pay attention to when they pick up the teacup is not the temperature of the tea, but to see if there is anything inexplicable growing in it, which may sound exaggerated, but it is the norm that happens every day in the city.
The vitality, what a fascinating thing, presents a completely different side here.
No one has such patience, so exhaustion and grumbling spread everywhere like weeds that have to be cleared every morning.
The most pessimistic thing is that after a series of rigorous and scientific analyses, under the existing forces and resources, the city will eventually be submerged by an endless jungle, unless it increases investment regardless of work and time.
It is a sad story of people who have just been driven out of the core of the World Tree, but who have just settled down, but have just taken the rudiments of civilization, and are forced to abandon their homes again and move to more distant areas to counteract the unstoppable spread of native species.
"Who are you?"
Several men and women standing outside the courtyard gate surprised Xiao Ai's father, he was not very old, he seemed very polite and enthusiastic, and his face was piled up with a gentle and decent smile, and one of them was a handsome man in his thirties, dressed in sportswear, and had an extraordinary temperament, stepped forward, "It's Mr. Ai, hello, I'm Xiao Cui of the Earth Federation Institute of Life and Genetic Engineering, these are a few colleagues from the earth......"
Xiao Cui introduced several men and women behind him like Xiao Ai's father, Xiao Ai's father was a little confused, these young people, the clothes seem to be very low-key, but from the texture of the clothes, cutting, workmanship, they are all worth a lot, and their demeanor and behavior, although they are all with good upbringing, but the temperament of staying on the top for a long time will not be wrong, he feels it very clearly.
So he asked politely, "What are you looking for me...... Oh, Director Li is there, too. ”
Director Li stood at the end, like a follower, and quickly showed him a warm smile.
"That's right, Mr. Ai, we have something we want you to help me with......"
"Help?" Xiao Ai's father was even more puzzled, he was an automation control engineer, although he was also a middle-level in the city, and he was also the object of work, a place where he only listened to orders and instructions, but there was no energy that could provide any convenience for others.
"Yes, about ...... About the World Tree. ”
It's the World Tree again......
Alas, no, what does the World Tree have to do with itself?
Don't......
A bad premonition immediately tugged at his heart, could it be his son, Xiao Ai, what accident did he have?
"Don't get me wrong, nothing bad happened, nothing bad happened to Ai Qingyun, he is ...... now Right now...... Oh, Mr. Ai, I really can't explain to you right now, I need you to join our team and ...... together."
"I'll go, I'll go......" Xiao Ai's father hurriedly agreed, he was not simple, and he would not be completely relieved because of this stranger's few assurances, something must have happened, otherwise they would not have found him.
When it comes to his son, no father can remain indifferent.
In this way, he temporarily appeased his wife with a lame lie, and asked for a leave of absence from the unit through Director Li, and Xiao Ai's father hurriedly left with these mysterious strangers.
It wasn't until the mighty advance camp that Xiao Ai's father reacted, and he was only worried along the way, and he didn't inquire about the most important information.
It was at this time that ......
"News has just come from Earth, a second deity has appeared!" (To be continued.) )
