Chapter 7 It is better to die than to live
It's actually quite good to die ignorantly, Ge Zi is afraid of pain and cold, and what she is most afraid of is that she will be tortured before she dies, if she must die, then she wants to die like this: first eat all over the world, eat from the earth to Mars and then eat from Mars to the earth, and then play all over the solar system, from Mercury to Pluto and then from Pluto to Mercury, after playing a lap, she is almost two hundred years old, and then dies peacefully.
But if it is better not to die, it is better to die than to live.
The Hades slid 4,000 kilometers in the atmosphere of Titan, and when it finally landed, only half of the open-top spacecraft remained, and the only remaining fusion engine completed its historic mission, successfully carrying the "Hades" to the Shangri-La Plain with great perseverance beyond ordinary engines, the bow of the spacecraft made contact with the surface at a precise three-degree angle, and then glided on the ice for 15 kilometers, and this angle was one degree larger and it plunged headlong into the formation.
The moment the spacecraft made contact with the ground, the huge kinetic energy destroyed the entire spaceship, including everything in the cockpit, as if a pair of invisible hands had squeezed the spacecraft from end to end, and even the sturdy skeleton was twisted and broken.
In Stern's words, it was a barely manageable air crash.
Only Steng stayed awake from beginning to end, all the cushions in the cabin were broken the moment the spacecraft touched the ground, the control panel, buttons, screens, cables and even the seats were detached, they were wrapped in the airbag and spinning, like six dice in the cup, being picked up and shaking wildly, and like a car rear-end at high speed and then rolling down the cliff, the airbag and the Iron Float saved the lives of the crew members, the airbag absorbed most of the energy, and the Iron Float helped them resist the overload, otherwise they would die in the violent impact even if they landed.
Steng estimated that the world was turned upside down for about five or six minutes, there was any sound in his ears, and the auditory nerves were numb from the shock, and the surroundings were quiet, he should be glad that the person who shook the dice was not the god of gambling, otherwise the dice would have been shaken.
When he finally stopped, he was already buried in a pile of garbage, covered with airbags, and he didn't know what was pressing on him.
Shi Teng unbuckled his seat belt and uncovered the airbag wrapped around him, the airbag had burst, Shi Teng tried to get up, but the seat under his buttocks was tilted to the side, and even the person and the chair overturned together, "bang", I don't know what I hit.
The cockpit was no longer the cockpit it it used to be, and even the old driver who had entered it countless times didn't know what shape it had become now, and he slowly raised his hand and pushed away a large board that had smashed into his chest, and the broken glass crackled and fell - what was this?
Steng turned on the Iron Float's headlamp and narrowed his eyes.
It turned out to be a twisted lining, and Stong remembered that it was originally on the roof of the cabin, and it looked like the entire roof had been smashed down.
"Old history? Old history, are you dead? Liu Peijia's faint voice came from the earphones.
"Not dead yet." Steng was overjoyed, it seemed that he was not the only one who survived, "Eggplant, how are you doing?" Are you alright? ”
"There's still a breath of air, but I can't move for the time being." Liu Peijia let out a sigh and licked his teeth, only to find that his mouth was full of blood, "My body is as hard as a stone, and I have no strength at all...... It's damn damned, it's not going to die. ”
"What about the others?" Shi Teng asked, "How are Mu Mu, Boss Zhuo, Xiao Zi, and Dai Yue?" ”
"Mumu ...... Mu Mu is by my side. Liu Peijia panted, turned his head to look, Zhao Mumu rolled with him, this girl's luck was better, a broken long steel pipe rubbed the helmet and inserted the seat backrest, and the person was gone by an inch, "It doesn't seem to be a big deal, but I haven't woken up yet." ”
"It's okay...... It's okay. Stong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Old history."
"Huh?"
"Are we there?" Liu Peijia asked.
"It's time to arrive." Stern replied, "If the ship's computer isn't wrong, we're not far from Cassini Station." ”
"What if something goes wrong?"
"Then we're dead."
Shi Teng struggled to get up and got up, he squeezed the last bit of strength from his body, straightened his body, and like Liu Peijia, Shi Teng's limbs were also stiff and painful, and his knees couldn't bend like his feet were filled with lead.
Steng overestimated his own endurance, the high overload generated by the violent deceleration of the atmosphere was beyond the reach of ordinary people, Steng's brain was dizzy, and he should immediately lie down and rest.
But now there was no time to rest, he climbed out of the airbag, and looked around, the headlights of the Iron Float were in shambles, the ship had become a broken hut with air leaks on all sides, the skin and lining were peeling off, the metal skeleton was twisted and bent, the broken cables were hanging down, the bursting airbag was covered with the ruins, the bow of the ship had been shattered into slag when it hit the ice, but fortunately, Steng's seat flew out, otherwise he would have turned into slag with the bow of the ship.
There was a person under the airbag who moved, and he slowly crawled out, it was Liu Peijia.
He was still holding a person in his arms, Mu Mu who was unconscious.
Liu Peijia dragged Mu Mu out of the seat, and then collapsed to the ground gasping for breath.
He looked around, "Damn, can this ship still fly?" ”
"Yes."
"Yes?"
"Then there are ghosts." Shi Teng shook his head, crawled over to check Zhao Mumu's condition, made sure that she was safe and sound, and turned to look for the others.
"Can Earth and Mars receive our distress signals?" Liu Peijia asked, "Do they know that something happened to us?" ”
"God knows." Steng can't guarantee that this Titan and Mars are thousands of miles away, who can guarantee that they heard your cry for help?
"That's the problem."
"But the school will find out that we are missing, and when they find out that we are missing, they will find someone to rescue us." Stong said.
"When will they find out that something is wrong with us?" Liu Peijia asked.
"Twenty days."
"Twenty days!"
Liu Peijia and Shi Teng worked together to drag the rest of the crew out of the rubble one by one, Ge Zi, Zhuozhi, Dai Yue, and then opened the first aid kit, and checked the status of the crew members in turn, several people were more or less injured, but it was not life-threatening, the situation was slightly more serious is Zhuozhi, that is, a concussion, Dai Yue regained consciousness, he looked around in surprise, and the first thing he asked was: "I'm still alive?" ”
"You're alive." Steng patted him on the shoulder and grinned.
It was an incredible miracle that the Hades prospecting ship entered the atmosphere and landed on the surface of Titan, and the crew survived.
