Shi Teng and Liu Peijia finally saw the light in front of them, Cassini stood up, and the two of them saw from a distance that the inclined main station building was slowly clear in the lamppost.

The walking car slowly stopped by the gangway in front of the airlock room door at Cassini Station, and then opened the hatch.

"It's time to get off, let's get off." Sten unbuckled his seatbelt, climbed out of the door, and stomped the ladder, "This car is out of power, it has to go back and recharge." ”

Liu Peijia climbed down from the other side, the car door closed, and Shi Teng patted the walking car hard, the latter's headlights flashed, and he slowly turned around and crawled away.

"It knows how to go back?"

"Yes, I think it can't wait to go back." Steng nodded, "There's a stout charging pile waiting for it in the nest." ”

Liu Peiqi frowned.

I don't think this sentence is simple.

The two of them opened the hatch of the airlock chamber and shut the extremely cold ice and snow outside, and the moment the hatch closed, the overhead lights lit up, and Shi Teng and Liu Peijia both felt warmed up.

Although this is an illusion.

"At this time, it would be nice if I could make a fire, my hands and feet are a little numb now, and the temperature outside is too low, and the Iron Floating Slaughter will not be a problem." Liu Peijia sighed in the helmet, raised his hand to wipe off the white mist condensed on the mask, "The cold starts from the feet, the cold starts from the feet." ”

White smoke was coming out of both of them, and the white smoke slowly flowed down the shoulders, arms and legs of the Iron Floating Tu, and at this moment, the surface temperature of the two Iron Floating Tu was as low as minus 180 degrees Celsius, which was the freezing people who walked, and all the water vapor in the air condensed everywhere they went.

"Open flames are strictly forbidden inside the station, and don't forget that this is a world full of methane." Sten opened the second door of the airlock chamber and bent down to enter, "Oxygen and methane mix, and then ignition, what is that?" ”

The two men chattered as they entered Cassini Station and unloaded the Iron Float in the tool room.

"The Iron Float has an anti-human design, its air circulation system always turns from top to bottom and back again, so the air supply in the helmet keeps blowing my fart and foot stink in my face, and the urine collector is so small, and the filter pipe is always on top of my eggs, hard." Liu Peijia stepped into the storage cabinet, turned around, leaned back, and with a "click", Tiefutu was fixed.

"So you moved around in the saddle to adjust the egg lane?"

"yes, I'm not just adjusting the trajectory, I'm getting ready to launch."

"That's because your eggs aren't in the right place." Stong was in the cabinet next door, "Before you wear the iron float, you should first unload the balls, do you see if there is a small frame on the left hand side of your cabinet?" That's where you put your eggs. ”

"Damn, you take your balls off every time you wear this?" Liu Peijia took off his helmet and took a deep breath of the warm and dirty air inside Cassini Station, feeling that his life was connected to the outside world again.

"Not only did I unload the eggs, I unloaded the whole thing." Sten said, "Finish the task and put it on." ”

"Wearing Tiefutu for a long time is not good for men's physiological health, to be honest, the underwear space is too small, and it is taut." Liu Peijia opened the buckles one by one.

"I'll think you're boasting about yourself from the side."

"Generally average, three out of twenty." Liu Peijia said.

"Sacrifice ugliness and ugliness, and be able to beat the drum." Stenn snorted, "But I suggest you check if you have a women's urine collector in the Iron Float." ”

"Is this thing still divided into men and women?" Liu Peijia asked.

"Strictly speaking, there are twenty-three genders in the Iron Float." Stern's hands outstretched.

"If I make it back alive, I don't want to wear this stuff again in my life." Liu Peijia sighed, unzipped it, and got out of the Iron Floating Massacre, "What do you say?" Those who want to wear the iron float must bear its weight...... It's quite heavy. ”

"Did you say that?"

"Lu Xun said." Liu Peijia is sure.

"I don't know if Lu Xun said that he said this, but I am sure that Zhou Shuren did not say this." Stenn also came out, and he stuffed the iron float back into the cabinet to recharge, "No one wants to wear this thing, but what can be done?" We all depend on it to survive, and without it, it is difficult to move an inch, but without you, it can still move around, in the end...... We are not their masters, but only appendages. ”

Liu Peijia was stunned.

"Come to think of it, we're just the guts of these steel machines." Stong pointed to the armor in the cabinet, "The essence of life has been transferred from us to them, when you put on the Iron Float, put on the helmet, and put down the mask, who knows if it is you or it that has life?" ”

"I'm its brain, and it has to listen to me." Liu Peijia thought for a moment, "So the subject is me and not it." ”

Ston glanced at him, "That's what your brain thinks too." ”

The two returned to the P3 lab, and everyone was relieved to see them return safely.

“…… That's the general situation, the tarmac is useless, it could be an earthquake or a volcanic eruption, but it is badly damaged anyway, and it is impossible to use it for landing. Ston sat cross-legged on the floor, munching on dry food and water, "We'll have to find other more suitable diversion areas." ”

"Is there such a place?" Mu Mu asked.

"There are alternatives." Stong picked up his laptop and turned it around to the crowd, "Eggplant and I discussed on the way back that there was detailed topography of the Shangri-La Plain inside Cassini Station, and we searched for it and found a place that seemed to be suitable. ”

Everyone else leaned in, and on the computer screen was a magnified map, with a red line on a blue background zigzagically outlining an irregular area.

"Dongting Lake." Liu Peijia said.

"Dongting Lake is on earth." Dai Yue was stunned.

"Oh, this is the second Dongting Lake more than a billion kilometers away, and it's colloquially called Half-Foot Lake." Liu explained, "Half a foot lake is the closest lake to Cassini Station and the largest lake. ”

Shi Teng nodded, and then continued: "According to the satellite remote sensing data of that year, the half-foot lake is very shallow and very gentle, just like the Uyuni salt lake on the earth, there are 20 million cubic meters of liquid methane in the lake, and the depth of the lake is only forty centimeters, almost a natural landing field, where rescue spacecraft can land." ”

Dai Yue, Zhuo Zhi, Mu Mu and Ge Zi were all a little surprised.

"And a place like this?" Ge Zi was curious, "How big is it?" ”

"Forty-six square kilometers." Stong replied, "It's about the same size as Xicheng District in Beijing." ”

"What do we need to do?" Dai Yue asked, "What's next?" ”

"We have to go to the half-foot lake first to see if it's a suitable landing site." "The next step is to set up navigation and location beacons that allow us to guide rescue ships to land safely when they arrive, which is important." ”

"And when are we leaving?" Liu Peijia nibbled on dry food.

Stong glanced at the time, "It takes three to four hours to charge the walking car, and we will wait for the car to be fully charged before we leave." ”
