Chapter 14 To Live is to Hope
Because now is not the time to enter and exit the dungeon, there are not many people here, and there are only Gu Bei and Duoduo in the elevator.
"Duoduo, are you afraid?" Gu Bei smiled.
"Don't be afraid, Dad, didn't you say that with you, you will protect me?" Duoduo blinked, grabbed Gu Bei's arm playfully, and then said, "Dad, and I'm also very curious about the outside." ”
Duoduo also grew up in a dungeon, full of curiosity about the outside world, and she really wanted to see what the outside world was like.
"Hmm."
As the elevator rose, the number on the panel that calculated the height in the elevator slowly returned to zero, and Gu Bei knew that the temperature outside was too low, which was nothing to him, but to Duoduo, it was a big threat.
Gu Bei directly hugged Duoduo, and then said, "You wait and shrink your head first, the temperature outside is too low, and the air pressure is unstable." ”
"Uh-huh."
As the number on the elevator panel goes to zero, the elevator eventually stops as well.
When the elevator door opened, a cold wind blew into the elevator in an instant, and Gu Bei and Duoduo's protective helmets were also full of ice crystals.
The violent wind and snow made Duoduo bury his little head in Gu Bei's chest, and Gu Bei also hugged Duoduo directly.
"Don't be afraid of me as I am." And the faint sunlight also shone on Gu Bei and Duoduo, and after Gu Bei walked out, he found that the sun was much smaller when he entered the dungeon.
"The Shangjing Underground City is located on the solar side, so it will always be full of sunshine." Feeling the wind and snow weakening, Duoduo poked out her little head from Gu Bei's arms.
He looked around curiously, and at this time he was surrounded by delivery vehicles, and of course, there was a huge planetary engine behind it, and it also emitted light blue flames.
"Is that a planetary engine?" Duoduo looked at the planetary engine behind him in shock.
The huge planetary engine is shocking, especially the sky-high flames, which make this scene even more magnificent.
"Hmm."
"There are 10,000 planetary engines on the earth, and it is also by the propulsion of these planetary engines that the earth can be pushed out of the solar system."
"Hmm."
"Dad, what was your life like before?" Duoduo asked with some curiosity.
"Life before?"
"That's it...... Although there will be spring, summer, autumn and winter on the ground, and there will be a variety of scenery, but the human activities behind it will also cause great damage to the global environment. ”
"There used to be many, many small animals, and the whole earth was full of life." Gu Bei smiled, and he slowly fell into memory.
Those memories that were originally on his earth, he was just a college student who had just graduated, an ordinary office worker who had just entered society, right?
"Critters?"
"Well, you should have seen it in books, and schools should have taught these courses." Gu Bei said lightly.
"Brain axe, rabbit?"
"Hmm."
"It's just that because of the accident now, there shouldn't be any small animals on the surface of the earth, and now it's more than 70 degrees below zero, and there are almost no creatures that can survive."
"Of course, living things have always been adapted, so now there may be any creatures on the surface of the earth." After Gu Bei finished speaking, he quietly looked at the sky.
Now the Earth has passed the orbit of Mars and is approaching Jupiter.
However, Jupiter can only be seen on the back side of the sun, and only a white patch can be seen when you look up here.
Cloudless.
At such low temperatures, clouds no longer exist, and snow falls.
"Is that snow?" Looking at the snowflakes floating towards Duoduo's hands, Duoduo gently caught the snowflakes, which happened to be the kind of standard hexagons.
"Hmm."
"Then Dad, when will we see that kind of world full of spring, summer, autumn and winter?"
Duoduo was actually interested in the kind of vibrant world that Gu Bei said, and this kind of ice and snow would not make her like it.
"Maybe a thousand years, maybe two thousand years." Gu Bei glanced at Duoduo and didn't know what to say.
In fact, for Duoduo, it is forever.
Unless Gu Bei let Duoduo have the method of immortality, he would never wait for the day when the Earth was captured by other galaxies.
"Dad, when I was in school, I heard the teacher talk about what the earth was like before, and I also learned about it."
"I don't know when I sleep in spring, and I smell birds everywhere. The sound of wind and rain comes at night, and the flowers fall to know how much. ”
"I don't know what Li Bai's poems will be." Duoduo was a little confused, she had only seen the original appearance of the earth from the pictures.
Those are gone.
She may never be able to see them, although she is still young, but she understands those truths.
She knows that humanity can only hope to survive by pushing the earth out of the solar system.
"In the past, when my father was studying, don't destroy the environment, don't let the last drop of water on the earth become human tears."
"Although it is not a drought now, but now is the opportunity for human life and death, and when the plan of wandering the earth is completely completed, that is, the dawn of mankind." Although Gu Bei didn't know if he would understand these Duoduo when he said it, he would say the same.
He wants to let Duoduo grow, grow in this cold and snowy place, in this place like the end times.
Grow into what she wants.
"That's a good point." It was also at this time that a man in a crimson protective suit walked over, and the man looked emotional.
"You are?"
"Just an engineer who maintains the planetary engine of the Shangjing dungeon." The man smiled, and then said, "There aren't many people who know you like this now. ”
"Since the launch of the Wandering Earth project, many people have given up hope, and now most people are actually living a hopeless life in the dungeon, in fact, they don't want to be free."
"But in this kind of world, how can we say freedom? Without protective clothing, we would not be able to move an inch outside, and we would have to rely on the shelter of the dungeon to survive. ”
"But it will take a thousand years to complete the Wandering Earth plan, and the thousand-year-old world, I am afraid that we have already turned into a loess."
"What's the hope?" The engineer was a little pessimistic, but there was no way around it.
"Uncle, how can we not have hope? To be alive is to hope. Duoduo frowned, and then said very seriously.
"Alive?"
"Well, to live is to hope."
"As long as you live, how can there be no hope?"
"But ......"
"Uncle, there is nothing that cannot be done, and now for us, isn't it the best to live? Just like I have a father, you also have your own relatives, and in the rest of the time, you will always be together, isn't it also hope? Duoduo's words made the engineer stunned, and Gu Bei was very pleased.
His blossoms have really grown a lot.
