A long time ago, Chen Cheng had already discovered the existence of "qi", and he was able to make his strength greater and his defense ability stronger by adjusting his breathing, and thus created such a thing as "hard qigong". But at that time, no matter how hard he cultivated, he had always stayed at the level of hard qigong.

Although throughout the big and small Zhoutian, you can also feel the heat flow running around in the body, but you can only stay at the level of "hard qigong". At that time, he had thought, probably, that was his own limit. After that, although he still has the habit of practicing before going to bed every day, it is just a sleep aid.

"Qigong", let's say it's fake, but it really has some effect. But apart from getting better sleep, it didn't have much effect. Everything changed more than a hundred days after they came to this world, and on this day, Chen Cheng and Mark spliced a cabin to the original base, so that they had more places to grow food and vegetables.

After finishing the matter, Chen Cheng lay down to sleep, and as soon as he came out of the dantian in one breath, the whole person seemed to have fallen into darkness. This feeling is somewhat similar to the feeling he has every time he crosses, but now that he is on Mars, where else can he travel to?

In a trance, he seemed to see the surging tide of energy, as if he was facing the boundless sea. His own body became huge and hot, as if incarnated as a red sun, and slowly rose and rose in this sea of energy, all the way up to the sky, spreading light and heat in all directions.

The sound of countless people shouting came from afar, but when he wanted to hear it clearly, there was a fan who couldn't hear anything. In a trance, he came to his senses. There have been times when I dreamed like this before, but every time I dreamed, I was given something, either attribute points such as "strength" and "intelligence", or skill points such as "tactics" and "reconnaissance".

This time it was different, this time nothing was given.

Chen Cheng checked his body, as if there was something different, but it didn't seem to be any different.

"Chen, what's wrong with you?"

"Oh, I came up with a great idea, we can assemble the pieces that were taken apart the day before yesterday, and probably be able to connect with the Earth through Morse code, which is much better than your current contact information. You can now deliver a few words in half a day, and if you can use code, the efficiency is more than ten times higher. ”

Send a message from Mars to Earth, the situation is not important, it is the power that matters. The tyranny of distance is infinitely amplified here, and without enough energy, without enough power, the earth cannot receive the signal here. Hearing this, Mark sat up and said, "I have also thought about this problem, but the problem is power, if the power is not enough, the earth will not be able to receive the signals we send." ”

"Leave this to me, I'm a man who can knock out Gundam by hand!"

"Gundam?" Mark wasn't a lover of turnip slices and didn't know what it was, "What's that?" ”

"A humanoid vehicle."

"Oh!"

After four more days of work, they planted various seeds in the new cabin and set up a new communication device outside. Just like Chen Cheng said, he can knock out a Gundam with a hammer, and the communication device in the solar system is not simple? Well, it's not that simple.

Mark had made an appointment with Houston to make contact in three days, but he was too late to get involved with the new communication device. Mark is busy enough, although the main force is Chen Cheng, he also needs him to work on the side. I don't know why, he didn't feel tired.

Not only that, but some of the wounds on his body were left with some scars after healing, and now they are gradually disappearing. This made Mark even more convinced that Chen is God, if not God, then an angel. Of course, in his heart, sometimes he thinks that Chen may be Satan, Lucifer and other devils and demons.

But no matter which one it is, whether it is God or Satan, it is an existence that needs to be looked up to. After the new communication device was built, Mark finally didn't have to hang around outside for half a day before he could say a word. Powerful energy transforms words into signals, emitting them into the vast universe.

He sat in the room, put on earmuffs, held a pencil, and prepared to listen to the voice from his hometown.

"Houston, Houston, here's Mark, here's Mark, please answer if you receive it, please answer when you receive it."

Chen Cheng made a cup of tea, sat on a chair and looked at the red sparks outside the window. Even after watching it so many times, he still found it very interesting. On the entire planet, there are only two people, him and Mark. At the same time, he also felt his own insignificance again.

55 million kilometers, such a long distance, but still only within the solar system. It is already so difficult to get from Earth to Mars, and if you want to go to another star system, you don't know how much effort it will take. Some scientists are even pessimistic that human beings will never be able to leave the solar system.

This view is based on the premise that scientific theories and technical levels are no longer developed, and in another world, there has been no major breakthrough in scientific theories for a long time. The same is true for technical means, the simplest and most reliable interstellar driving force is nuclear fusion, but when it comes to nuclear fusion, it is always fifty years away.

I don't know how these 50 years were calculated, did someone take a time machine from the future back to the present, and told everyone that nuclear fusion would be realized in 50 years?

While Chen Cheng was drinking tea and thinking nonsense, Mark had already connected with the earth, and the computer was able to convert his words into signals and send them, and convert the received signals into sounds, so he could do the work of sending and receiving alone.

However, because of the long delay, he received an answer more than half an hour ago.

"Mark, this is Houston. Mark, this is Houston. ”

NASA didn't hear from Mark a day ago, and the people in the center thought that something was wrong with the Mars base, or that Mark was dead. The glasses officials and generals were naturally furious, keeping the staff of the space agency busy for a long time, and they didn't find out what the reason was.

It wasn't until the next day that the officer on duty came to report that they had received Morse code from Mars. The general was very happy to receive the signal, but after hearing that it was a message that was not encrypted at all, he let out another earth-shattering roar, "Doesn't that mean that other countries in the world can also hear it?" I knew he was a traitor! ”

The angry man was replaced by a general, and he yelled at the staff: "Immediately let him stop sending messages in clear code, damn it, it takes an hour to go back and forth from Earth to Mars!" That bastard has been leaking for half an hour, and it's going to be leaked for another half hour! ”

The distance between Earth and Mars is not static, but changes all the time. When two planets are on the same side of the Sun, they are closer together. But when Mars and Earth are on opposite sides of the Sun, the distance becomes two or three times greater.

Immediately after receiving the order, NASA crews sent a message to Mars. But no matter how angry the general was, it would take half an hour for the message to pass. For half an hour, Mark continued to babble on and on about a lot of things, including the fact that they had connected a new cabin, that they had grown vegetables and grain, and that he had done all sorts of things.

These messages are broadcast to the entire universe in plain form. But things changed after he received the reply, "What? Want to shut me up? Encrypt? Damn it? How do I encrypt? It's already a blessing to be able to send a message, and you still want me to encrypt it? ”

He took off the earmuffs, turned back to Chen Cheng and said, "Chen, let us encrypt it over there in Houston, will you?" ”

Chen Cheng put down the teacup, shrugged his shoulders, and replied, "I don't know the password of you Americans, how can I encrypt it?" I know some Chinese passwords, you ask those people opposite, is it okay to use Chinese passwords? ”

In the more than an hour of waiting for a reply, the two sides exchanged a lot of information, but in general, it was of little use. Even Mark heard something bad from the other party's answer, "Shet, these incompetent bureaucrats, these guys who deserve to go to hell, they didn't even think about sending a rescue team!" ”

"I'll go to your uncle's!"

Mark took off the earmuffs and made a gesture to smash them on the ground, but when he held them in his hands, he realized that this was not the earth, and even if it was a nail, he had to do it himself to get it out. Something is broken, but there's no way to get a new one.

Half an hour later, Houston received a message from Mars.

"What? Mark, that traitor wants to use the password of the Chinese? ”

As soon as the general's anger went down, it rose again, and he gritted his teeth and said, "This is a blatant traitor!" Arrest him and shoot him immediately! ”

"Well, General, I don't think you can get him here. Even if a spacecraft were launched now, it would be a year and a half before it reached the orbit of Mars. ”

Time and space have infinite power, and with a distance of tens of millions of kilometers, even if it is a world hegemon, it is helpless. Communication continues, and with the new communication device, the exchange of information between the two sides is ten times faster. As time passed, suddenly a staff member said, "Oh no, the Russians have joined in!" ”

"What?"

The general's anger burned again, but not as good as the previous two times. After all, he is old, let him get up and down, get up and down, and find a real person to vent, of course, he can't get up again.

"Damn Russians, I'll just say blow them back to the Stone Age!"

The general wanted to get angry, but found that he no longer had that energy, so he had to say stupidly: "Let the White House negotiate with the Russians and let them stop this behavior immediately!" ”

After a while, someone else shouted, "Oh no, Mark said we didn't want to go to the rescue, and now he refuses to communicate with us!" ”

"Traitor! It's time to shoot! The general said weakly: "Report it to the White House!" ”

keeps getting up and going down like this, the elderly really can't stand it!
