The east is whitening, the morning sun has dewed, and it is a new day.

On the outskirts of the city, on the trails.

Zhang Wangxi, who was jogging on the path, looked up at the sky, and then at the "smart terminal" on his wrist, 6:13 on August 23, Huoyuan 1110.

"The sun is coming out, we have to hurry home". Zhang Wangxi muttered in his mouth and stopped, took off the backpack behind his back, took out the radiation protective suit, hood, and glasses inside and put them on, and then continued to run in the direction of his home.

As the last group of humans born on Mars, Zhang Wangxi is quite adaptable to the current bad situation, but the sun's "abnormal radiation" is getting more and more serious. Nowadays, people go out at night to work and do activities, and hide at home to sleep and rest during the day.

Speaking of the "abnormal solar radiation" that has changed the laws of human life, it started more than 100 years ago. At first, only astronomical scientists focused on it, pointing out that the energy emitted by the sun was increasing at an accelerated rate. More than 70 years later, people exactly felt the consequences of this accelerated increase in radiation, many people who often spend time outdoors have skin lesions, and after another 30 years, no one dares to bask in the noon sun directly without wearing professional radiation protection clothing, and then ten years later, no one even dares to bask in the morning sun, so human work and rest have become diurnal and nocturnal.

Zhang Wangxi hurried back to his house and found that his grandfather was alone in the living room, with food on the dining table.

"Xiaoxi, why did you come back so late today? Being irradiated is not a joke. Grandpa Zhang Zhiyuan saw Zhang Wangxi enter the door and looked up and asked.

"It took me a little longer to read, and when I was jogging, I realized that the sun was coming out, but don't worry, I'm not wearing radiation protection, it's fine. Zhang Wangxi replied while taking off his radiation protective suit.

"Then we have to come back early, now the radiation is getting stronger and stronger, I don't know what happened to the alliance's "escape plan", and no one in our family works in the alliance, so we can only watch the news. Zhang Zhiyuan said and pressed the "smart terminal" on his wrist, and a light curtain appeared on the opposite side of the dining table.

"Okay, don't complain, who made your son not die, he wasn't selected when the alliance recruited staff, but now it's better, he knows how to play games all day long, and he even forgets to eat. Xiaoxi went to wash her hands, it was time to eat. Grandma Fang Cuiping came out of the kitchen with a plate of braised artificial meat, and started her own complaint while stopping her old man from complaining.

"Okay!" Zhang Wangxi responded, ran into the bathroom in two steps, and carefully cleaned it with anti-radiation hand sanitizer before returning to the living room and sitting on the edge of the dining table.

"Morning news, broadcast now, welcome to the Union News. "The announcer's magnetic voice came from the speakers buried in the walls, and since people's schedules were reversed, the 7:00 a.m. news has now replaced the 7:00 p.m. news as a must-see. As an ordinary person with little "inside" information, the news is the most important source of information.

"The main contents of this news are:

The main body of the three starships built for the "escape plan" has been completed, and the follow-up work is expected to be completed within two years.

Mr. Peter Ross, the First Speaker of the Human Alliance, made a public speech asking the Cult of the Shifting Stars to exercise restraint and not to interfere with the construction of the starship and all matters related to the 'Escape Plan', and to reserve the right to take all effective measures.

Pope Kwon so-hiro of the 'Cult of Shifting Stars' called on all 170 million members of the congregation and all followers of the 'Shifting Stars' to step up their prayers, declaring that the 'Shifting Stars' will definitely perform 'miracles' again.

The Scout 21 probe sent back a high-definition map of the whole planet of 'Earth II', and relevant experts and scholars issued a statement saying that 'Earth II' fully meets the needs of human survival.

At the conclusion of the 72nd comprehensive discussion of the Supreme Council of the Escape Plan, Executive Commissioner Kander Fall said that the Escape Plan has been continuously improved with a success rate of more than 91.1 percent, and called on the entire population to maintain confidence in the alliance and the plan.

See details ...... below. ”

The family watched the news while eating, although almost all the news in the past few years revolved around the 'escape plan', the three of them also watched it very seriously, saying that this matter is related to the fate of all mankind, and to the small is also related to the life and death of their family of five. At the end of the half-hour news program and the meal, grandpa Zhang Zhiyuan got up and sat on the sofa to make a cup of tea, and grandma Fang Cuiping cleaned up the table and pulled out a soap opera to watch it. Zhang Wangxi felt that the atmosphere was a little deserted, so he sat among his grandparents and wanted to talk to the second elder before going back to the house.

After waiting for two minutes, the two old men didn't mean to speak, Zhang Wangxi had no choice but to break the embarrassing atmosphere by himself: "There are still two years before the starship can be completed, I don't know if it can fit all of our 2 billion people." ”

"It shouldn't be a problem, after all, we started planning this more than a hundred years ago, and the population was almost twice as large as it is now. By the way, I heard from the grapevine that when the starship is actually on, everyone will be frozen, and then thawed when they arrive at the destination, which will not only save space, but also save resources, after all, this time it will be at least a hundred years old. Zhang Zhiyuan said slowly while shaking his teacup, with a face that saw through the calm of life and death.

"It's all 'frozen'! Oh, it should be called hibernation, right?" Zhang Wangxi was a little stunned: "I read a lot of books that hibernation technology was invented hundreds of years ago, and it was also for a long interstellar voyage, but this technology has a major flaw, too long time will cause huge damage to the brain, including: brain atrophy, memory loss, and even brain death, etc., is the alliance going to turn everyone into idiots?"

"Probably not...... Zhang Zhiyuan usually doesn't pay much attention to technology, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, and he muttered for a while before saying: "You said that this technology was available hundreds of years ago, maybe it has been solved long ago." The only thing I'm worried about now is not the technical level of the Alliance, but the gang of the 'Star Shifting God Cult', who are praying and parading all day long, as if the guy who got the earth away will really listen to them. ”

"Shh......h Grandpa, just talk about it at home, those fanatics are not just praying and petitioning now, didn't they just say it on the news, their purpose now is to stop the 'escape plan', and some places have already begun to attack the facilities and personnel related to the 'escape plan', and those who oppose them will also be attacked. They claim that the 'Star Shifter' will come to save everyone before the sun completely erupts, and that the so-called 'escape' is completely unnecessary. Zhang Wangxi looked a little nervous, he had lived for more than ten years, but he had never seen the bloody picture in the news just now.

"Hmph! My old man has lived for more than 70 years, will he be afraid of them? And what kind of Raushzi 'Star Shifting God', who stole our earth silently, if we can still contact the ancestor, we will definitely not be afraid of him, maybe we can snatch the earth back, our ancestor is Zhang Tianshi, that is a big man who has become an immortal, in the ......heavenly court" Zhang Zhiyuan said faster and faster, the more he said, the more excited he became, looking at that posture, he could draw out a peerless sword and lead down ten thousand thunder from the sky in the next second. The Cult of the Shifting Stars' gang slashed all over the ground looking for teeth.

"Okay, grandpa, okay, okay, grandpa is angry, I know we have an immortal ancestor, you have said it hundreds of times, and when our ancestor returns from stepping on the clouds, that bastard god cult will immediately fall and scatter. As soon as Zhang Wangxi saw his grandfather talking about his ancestor Zhang Tianshi, he hurriedly stopped it, not because he was annoyed, but because he was afraid that something would happen to his grandfather's body when he was excited, after all, he was also in his seventies.

"You kid, what you say sounds good, but you don't believe it in your heart, right?" Zhang Zhiyuan glanced at Zhang Wangxi with disgust, stretched out his right hand, and gently twisted his thumb and index finger before he picked up his teacup and took a sip; "Forget it, you will understand by then, by the way, how are you getting along with that girl from the Meng family?"

"Girl, you said Meng Qingzhu, also... It's okay... , but grandpa, I'm not even 18 years old now, don't be too anxious about this......" Zhang Wangxi thought of the unspeakable discomfort in the man's mother-in-law, and then thought of her relationship with her or as an unmarried couple, and began to worry about how she lived the rest of her life.

Zhang Zhiyuan looked at his grandson's bitter face, took a sip of tea and said: "I also know that the girl's personality is not very good, but she is just young and fun, maybe it will be fine in a few years." I have been friends with Old Man Meng for decades, and I have already said good things, so don't complain, now pure Chinese blood is not so easy to find. As he spoke, he put his head close to Zhang Wangxi's ear and whispered, "It's just a fertility tool." ”

Hearing grandpa's last words, Zhang Wangxi's body stiffened and glanced at the grandmother on the other side with her peripheral vision, it seemed that the TV series was very attractive, but she didn't react.

"By the way, Xiaoxi, what have you been busy with lately, I see that you run out every night and come back at dawn. Zhang Zhiyuan also changed the subject.

"It's to go to the Alliance Library to read books, I found that those ancient books are very interesting, it turns out that when I was on the earth, there were many countries, some had a good relationship and some had a bad relationship, and they could fight at every turn, I really don't know what they think, is it not good to live well?" Zhang Wangxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his grandfather didn't say anything about the man's mother-in-law.

"Well, that's good" Zhang Zhiyuan nodded: "It's good to read more books, now the things inherited by the Knowledge Inheritance Center are limited after all, and they have all been screened, and a lot of things have been eliminated, and few people know about ancient things." You say why they are calling, but in fact, there are only two words, that is, 'interests', and the book is not only to be read, but also to be productive. ”

Zhang Wangxi nodded: "Well, I understand, but I recently found something very interesting in the library, which was an investigation report more than a thousand years ago, that is, when humans were just thrown to Mars. The report included the testimonies of hundreds of people who said that on the night of the Star Shifting event, they heard a voice in their sleep asking them whether to leave with him or stay, and they all chose to stay, and then they woke up on Mars. ”

"There's nothing strange about this, I've also seen a lot of records from that time, it's strange, a few years ago, when the 'Star Shifting God Cult' was just flourishing, their first pope also claimed that he could get in touch with the 'Star Shifting' people, even if what those hundreds of people said was true, it could be the answer that their brains 'made up' by themselves by a huge accident. Zhang Zhiyuan replied with a twist of his beard, and leaned back slightly on the sofa after speaking.

Zhang Wangxi saw that his grandfather was not interested in his discovery, so he didn't say anything more, stood up and said, "Grandpa, I'm going back to the house to rest, you guys should rest early, good morning grandma!"

"Good morning!"

"Good morning!"
