It was a dazzling era of miracles, and it was a time of great oolongs to be "tail-to-head" that humans were able to surf the magnificent space – but it also came with destruction.

——Excerpt from "A Hundred Years of Collecting Shellfish", written by Yu Leshui

Ji Renrui quickly organized a large-scale IQ survey initiated by Chu Tianle. On the third day of Chu's initiative, 50 people, all of whom were the world's most famous psychologists, Wechsler IQ testers, and brain physiologists, sat in the conference room of the headquarters of Friends of Joy. Among them, only one is a quantum physicist, that is, Pauli, who lives in seclusion on Human Egg Island, and Chu Tianle brought him here. Chu Tianle went straight to the point:

"Welcome. The Academy of Friends of Joy would like to commission a large-scale IQ survey with you. I myself have never done an IQ test, and I am an absolute layman, so I would like to start by telling you two questions that are directly related to the goal of this survey. ”

Prutez, a famous British psychologist, smiled and said, "Please speak." I'm so glad to have a super genius as my student. ”

"Then I'll get to it. First, Wechsler IQ measures the discrete IQ of a population rather than an absolute IQ, in other words, people with IQs between 90 and 109 account for 50 percent of the total sample, whether it is for adults, children, or toddlers. This eliminates some uncertainties and makes the measured values comparable. Am I right? ”

"Yes."

"For the sake of accuracy, the IQ survey still hopes to use discrete IQs, but the sample averages used are not today's, but 50 years ago. Can this be done? ”

Prutez said keenly: "Fifty years ago, that is, when space was not shrinking. Do you want to measure the effect of spatial contraction on human IQ? ”

"Yes."

Prutez discussed in a low voice with a few acquaintances around him, and said, "Then we should use the original IQ score measured fifty years ago, not the final converted IQ value." There had never been such a large-scale IQ survey. But we can collect and sort out the scattered data, and we can still do it. ”

"Thank you. My second question is: I know that the Wechsler IQ test has been programmed to ensure the objectivity of the measurements, and I hope that this survey will continue to be objective. But, frankly, I'm afraid that you'll get bogged down in a maze of numbers, and you'll blur the clear and intuitive results. Because what I want is a very intuitive answer - whether the spatial contraction has an effect on human intelligence, and if so, roughly by a few percent. ”

Prutez shook his head with a smile, "This is not a question of yours, but a harsh demand on us. However, it is both demanding and simple. Actually, if you want a rough and intuitive answer, I've got it in my mind. Over the years, I've noticed a lot of intuitive evidence, such as the tenfold increase in sales of intellectual toys on the market in the last two decades. Another example is the human-computer competition in the field of chess, where humans are once again on an equal footing with computers, and so on. He bowed his head and quickly wrote a few words on a piece of paper, folded it into a swallow shape, and walked over to hand it to Chu Tianle, "Make a bet." This is my answer, please open it again when the survey is over and see if the two match. If the difference between the two is less than 5 percent, I win; Otherwise, count me as losing. ”

Tianle smiled and put the paper swallow into his jacket pocket and asked, "What are you betting on?" ”

"If I lose, I'll never read Playboy again."

"It's a special bet. Okay, I agree. What if I lose? To be clear, I've never seen Playboy. ”

"If you lose, then you're going to— listen, live by my standards, at least to be a hundred years old." After a pause, he added, "You don't live for yourself, but for everyone." ”

Chu Tianle was silent for a while. Prutez's words made him very emotional, but he replied in a joking tone, "Thank you." It's just that I'm afraid I won't be able to cash in on this bet. To be able to live until now, I have been extraordinarily performing, and it is a blessing for Dr. Toduan. I can only promise you to live as long as I can. ”

The atmosphere in the room was more solemn, and soon Prutz brushed away the solemnity with a smile, "Okay, then I'll be sloppy and count this as your fulfillment." ”

Pauli also wrote a few words on the piece of paper silently at this time, folded it into a swallow shape and handed it to Chu Tianle, and said briefly: "I will also participate." Same bets. ”

Chu Tianle smiled and put it in his pocket. Prutz said, "Haha, this time our gamble is even more interesting." Mr. Pauli has always had an astonishing instinct, a win-win gamble, and is well known in the scientific community. He then resumed his serious tone, "Now, I will turn to two technical issues. First, in the past, IQ measurements were transversal, measuring the dispersion IQ of an individual relative to the population to which he belongs. And the IQ measurement you are asking for is longitudinal, which measures the change in the IQ of today's population relative to the population of fifty years ago. It's a brand new job, but we're going to try to get it right. ”

"Good."

"The second point is more difficult. A well-known fable: a frog that is suddenly thrown into boiling water is able to escape for its life, because a sudden strong stimulus accelerates the release of adrenaline. Nineteen years ago, humanity was suddenly thrown into boiling water, which led to the extraordinary development of various fields. If a large increase in human IQ is measured, then, in addition to the improvement of background intelligence, there should also be an adrenaline effect. But the two cannot be separated. The percentage I just gave you includes two factors. ”

Chu Tianle paused for a moment, "No matter how difficult it is, we have to separate." What I want to know is the exact effect of spatial compression on human IQ, which cannot contain the adrenaline factor. ”

"If that's the case, then I would venture to make a suggestion, why not include animal IQ surveys? Animals, especially several species of orangutans, have considerable IQs and are well studied with sufficient comparative data. The most favorable condition is that their IQ is not enough to feel the existence of the pot of boiling water, which can completely exclude the factor of adrenaline, and the results of the survey will be more objective, which can be a powerful reference for human IQ investigation. "Of course, there is an implicit premise that there is no essential difference between the brains of humans and orangutans, and that anything that promotes human intelligence also affects orangutans." ”

Chu Tianle immediately smiled and said, "There is no problem with this premise. I don't think any of you here will be embracing human chauvinism. ”

"Okay, then let me share some information, which is the basis of my proposal just now. A friend of mine has been studying chimpanzees in Senegal for twenty years. He recently told me that something very interesting has happened there in recent years. ”

He didn't go into detail about what it was, but Chu Tianle fully understood the weight of the news, "Your opinion is very good, then add an animal group in addition to the routine adult group, children's group and toddler group." Mr. Prutez, this investigation is given to you with carte blanche, and you only need to submit a list of the required manpower and funds, and go directly to Dean Ji. Now the UN's SCAC has established a comprehensive cooperative relationship with us. Therefore, whether it is the resources of 'Friends of Joy' or the resources of SCAC, you can call them at will. ”

Prutez looked at Ji Renrui and smiled: "I often hear a saying that SCAC has been swallowed up by 'Friends of Music'. ”

Ji Renrui immediately responded: ", it's completely." There is no annexation, only full cooperation. Our cooperation has been really fruitful and enjoyable, especially since Abikar became that 'little secretary'. ”

"But objectively speaking, the 'Friends of Music' is already the de facto center of world politics. There is a common saying that the Executive Committee of the 'Friends of Joy' plus half of the SCAC is the real leader of the world, called 'governing by science', and the UN Security Council or the UN General Assembly are just two rubber stamps. ”

Chu Tianle said with a smile: "The reason why the 'Friends of Happiness' can do something is because they can move forward lightly, so you must not tie such a big chariot to us, it will harm us." He turned back to the subject, "Prutez, I won't bother with the IQ survey until you give me the results." When can it be? ”

Prutz looked at Ji Renrui, "I originally wanted to talk about it for a year, but although I am far away in a foreign land, I have already heard the murderous name of God's whip. So – within six months. ”

Ji Renrui's face was expressionless, "Three months." ”

"Three months?" Prutez looked at Chu Tianle. Chu smiled and said a few words to Ji and pleaded for the guest. Ji Renrui came in and out of three words again:

"One hundred days."

Prutez smiled wryly, "Mr. God's Whip, you are so generous. Okay, a hundred days is a hundred days. Well, we don't dare to delay for a minute and start getting into the role from now on. I need to start by deciding on the project team members. He thought for a moment and named the six people in the room, "The seven of us stayed and started discussing specific plans." Others can take their own chances, and if you want to stay, you can also observe. ”

The six do not include the quantum physicist Pauli. He looked at Chu Tianle: "Say it, my job." ”

Chu Tianle said: "This job is separate and perhaps more important, so leave it to the smartest brain." As we already know, the deep structure of the vacuum is equivalent to the fourth dimension of space. If spatial contraction does affect intelligence, then through what pathways? This is a completely new topic, and I hope you can figure it out. ”

Pauli looked at Ji Renrui, "I'll do it." As for the time...... "He looked at Ji Renrui.

Chu Tianle smiled, "Where can our God's whip be unreasonable, he knows that this task can't be handed over in a hundred days." You two will decide later. ”

But Pauli's reply was unexpected, "I'll have a hundred days too." ”

Chu Tianle stared at this silent guy in surprise, and the other party's gaze was calm and confident. Chu Tianle thought that since Pauli was so sure, it meant that he had already started to study this. He said happily, "Of course it's better, it seems that I didn't choose the wrong person." Let's go, and don't interfere with the work of the Prutez group. ”

Two days later, Prutez led psychologist Dong Yuexia and brain physiologist Steley to the dense forests of Senegal, Africa. Pauli also came, and he was there to attend, "trying to put some visual pictures in my head." Also with him was Ge Qihong, vice president of the Friends of Joy Foundation, who has been more leisure recently, so he "wants to compare his IQ with chimpanzees".

Prutez came to find an old friend, Francine Blois, who had been living with chimpanzees for 20 years. The black guide, Mlago, led them into the jungle, while Blois did not use a cell phone, and Mlago was his communicator. Since Blois lives in a fixed place and migrates with chimpanzees, Mlago is not sure when he will see him. However, this time it went well, and on the second day of entering the dense forest, the guide found the chimpanzee group. He told the guests to wait where they were, and a man crept forward. Soon he hurried back with Blois. It was a sturdy white middle-aged man, with brown hair, blue eyes, a beard and hair that was unkempt, bronzed skin, and a full-body **, with only a grass skirt around his waist. He hugged his old friend Prutez, and then with the other guests. Prutez told him the purpose of the trip, and Blois said:

"Living in this isolated forest, I have almost forgotten about the shrinkage of space, so I have never considered whether the shrinkage of space caused their IQ to explode. But these orangutans have certainly improved their intelligence in recent years, and I'm no doubt rejoicing about that. I'll be able to show you some interesting footage right now, and we'll talk about it after that. Come with me. ”

He led everyone to sneak around. Although he himself had been a member of the chimpanzee group for a long time, there were so many strangers today that he was afraid of disturbing the chimpanzee. At one point, he asked everyone to stop, and twenty meters away there was a small clearing in the forest, where more than two dozen chimpanzees gathered in a circle and were doing something. They spotted the stranger here, but probably knew it was brought by Blois, and showed no signs of being disturbed. Blois whispered:

"Before I left here, they had just captured three Wo Bush monkeys, and they were preparing to share their food. See? There were a few chimpanzees holding groomed, sharp, hard twigs that they used to hunt. It's not uncommon for them to use weapons, and zoologists have known about it for forty years. But—look down. He smiled and glanced at everyone, "Don't be shocked by what follows, Mlago and I are used to it." ”

He stopped talking, and several people watched quietly. The chimpanzees over there were preparing a bonfire, and they gathered some branches and stacked them into hollow pyres, which they did quite skillfully. While the orangutans worked, a muscular male stood on one side and watched calmly. Blois Says:

"That's their leader, and I've named it Az."

When the pyre was ready, the orangutans turned their eyes to Az, who walked over majestically and raised his left hand. Prutez held up the telescope at Bruis's signal and focused the lens on Az's hand. It turned out that it was holding a silver-white lighter in its left hand! Blois Says:

"Do you see clearly? It was a lighter, stolen from me. You know, I've always lived with them, trying to eat the same food as they do. But my stomach is different from that of chimpanzees, and sometimes I quietly avoid them and use a makeshift stove to cook some cooked food to spice up my stomach. I did it very carefully, believing that I never let them find out. But—I suspect they discovered my secret by secret stalking. I lost a lighter five years ago, and then I found out that the lighter was taken by Az, and then he learned to make a fire like me and roast meat over the fire. Later, Azi ousted the old leader and became the leader of the tribe himself. ”

It took a long time to light the fire there, and Prutz looked at it with a telescope for a while, then turned around and said, "Az's movements are very solemn, as if he was holding a religious ceremony. ”

Blois smiled and shook his head, "No, it's not religious. The chimpanzee's thumb is far less dexterous than anyone's, and Az's fingers are often burned when he fires, and even now it is not completely avoidable. So it is very careful when it fires. Until now, in this group, ignition is the exclusive power of Aziz alone. Of course, it would not be wrong to see their reverence for fire as the germ of religion. ”

Screams of excitement erupted from there, and Azzy lit the fire. Small flames leaped and meandered between the branches, and soon turned into a raging fire. Sparks flew everywhere, probably burning a few orangutans, and screams of excitement were mixed with screams. Aziz triumphantly retreated from the fire, carefully clutching the silver-white lighter in his hand. Several male orangutans threaded the carcasses of the three leans onto the branches of a tree and roasted them on a fire, while the other orangutans stared greedily. Blois Says:

"In the past two years, the life of this ethnic group has been inseparable from fire. But they didn't learn how to keep the tinder, because they didn't have the objective need to do it—they knew my secret and kept all the lighters, and when one of the lighters didn't ignite, they would come here and steal another one. It's become a secret between me and them. ”

The meat over there is cooked, and the aroma wafts here. They first offered the food to Az, who tore off a piece and shared the rest. At this time, a chimpanzee suddenly left the group and walked this way, and Blois hurriedly introduced:

"Did you see the female orangutan? It's called Maru and it's my lover. He looked at the group, "I'm not joking, at least not all joking." You look at the grass skirt around its waist. ”

It approached, indeed wearing a grass skirt, in the same style as Blois's. "Maru is one of Azzi's 'concubines,' but she's been courting me for the last two years," Blois said. It cares about me very much, keeps me with the best food, always keeps me in sight when the tribe migrates, and it will be very anxious if I don't see me for half a day. I live in a chimpanzee group, and I should be naked, but after all, the habits of civilization are hard to change, so I have always covered my shame in a straw skirt. What I didn't expect was that from this year on, Malu was very envious of my grass skirt, and often came to my side and looked at me with the grass skirt in his eyes. Maybe it's, oh, her," Blois said, shaking his head and self-deprecatingly, "sometimes I really don't know what kind of pronouns to use—maybe its IQ has learned how to hide shame?" Later, I made a straw skirt for it, and it loved it so much that it didn't leave it for a moment. ”

Maru walked halfway and stopped hesitantly, probably jealous of the stranger around the "lover". Ge Qihong joked to the host:

"Maru is courting you, is the king of chimpanzees jealous?"

"No, no. I think the reason is that he—like Maru—has a lot of respect for the wisdom I represent. At least they all knew that the lighter, this treasure outside of their world, was brought by me. Shhhhhh

Blois silenced everyone as Maru came over after a brief hesitation. It could now be seen that it was holding a piece of cooked meat in its hand, and it walked over, avoiding the eyes of the others, and looked at Blois earnestly, holding the meat to him with both hands. Blois immediately ripped off a piece and returned the rest to Maru, patting it on the top of the head appreciatively. Maru, who had been praised, ran back with a radiant face and high spirits.

Several people were quite moved and shocked because there was clearly "feminine tenderness" in its childlike joy. Blois says it's his lover, and it seems to be true. What happened next shocked everyone even more. After Maru returned to the chimpanzee herd, Azi approached him, and the two orangutans gestured in sign language. Blois Says:

"Look, they're talking in sign language. I taught sign language, and now the whole community uses it. It's no surprise that orangutans use sign language, as early as the 80s of the last century, the Gorilla Foundation of America taught a lowland gorilla named Koko to use more than 1,000 sign language words, know 2,000 spoken English words, and communicate with humans quite smoothly. As he introduced, he tried to make out the sign language of the two orangutans, "Oh, Azi is telling Maru, 'Send five more pieces of meat, for Venerable Blois has brought five guests.'" ’”

Ge Qihong looked at Blois suspiciously, not knowing if he was joking or the truth. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be true. There were five orangutans over there, and Maru was the head. They soon approached, each holding a piece of cooked meat in his hand, and respectfully holding it to the five guests. At Blois's signal, the five people quickly accepted the gifts, and patted each other's heads like Blois to express their appreciation. The five chimpanzees went away happily.

All five of them struggled to tear and eat half-cooked monkey meat, staring at the chimpanzee colony in deep thought. "It's truly incredible," Sterley said. Dong Yuexia also said: "It's really shocking. "Now, this chimpanzee group can be said to have escaped from the category of animals, and can be regarded as a native. With a generous, prestigious, brilliant leader, and even a rudimentary love between men and women, who would dare to say that a new civilization would not start here? Prutez asked Bruis:

"Old friend, I've been collecting a lot of information lately, and I've found that animals all over the world have seen significant improvements in intelligence, but you're the only one who is the most amazing. Why is that? ”

"It's simple. I think it's because the chimpanzee's IQ is close to the tipping point of getting out of obscurantism, so under the same amplitude of stimulation, only this is the only mutation that occurs; Perhaps there is another reason: it is basically a group life in a state of freedom, and in such a social structure, it is easier to produce positive feedback on intellectual improvement. ”

Pauli couldn't hold back a little and said urgently, "I want to live there." Are they allowed? ”

Blois looked at his snow-white skin and jokingly said, "It should be fine." The only problem is that you're so different from them in skin color, but I'm sure they won't treat you as inferior. Are you all going? ”

"Yes, all of them. Let's all go. Others said.

"Then you must first make up your mind to be naked like me." He smiled and added, "Wait a minute, I'll ask Az." ”

He walked over. Azi saw it and came to him. A man and an orangutan were talking in sign language. The conversation lasted for quite some time, and the five guests here were fascinated by it, although they couldn't understand it at all. Azi was obviously different from the orangutans just now, his gaze was quite calm, and he did not cringe from the other orangutans. Finally Blois came back and said with a smile:

"Let's go. It is more than glad that it invites you to be a guest of the community. I'm kidding, you don't have to take off your clothes. They're open-minded enough not to care about the ugliness of a few hairless aliens. ”

The five of them happily followed him to that side, and they were a little apprehensive in their hearts. Ge Qihong muttered, and Blois turned back and asked, "What did you say?" Ge Qihong said:

"I feel sorry for Maru. Look at its fists affectionately! But its unrequited love is doomed to be hopeless. ”

Blois smiled, but did not respond. After a while he said: "If the rate of intellectual improvement in these two years continues, they will soon break away from ignorance and become the fifth skin color of mankind after black, white, yellow, brown, or 'hairy race'." If so, would you care about your wife's skin color? ”

Ge Qihong scratched his head and reluctantly admitted: "Although I dare not imagine marrying a hairy wife, - I think you are right, the key is not in appearance, but in the wisdom in the brain." ”

One hundred days later, the Prutez group published the results of this massive IQ survey. Pauli submitted a separate study report at the same time with a formula.

According to the results of the Prutez group, the average IQ of humans, including adults, young adults, young children, and all animals with measurable IQs, has increased by about 45 percent compared with 50 years ago, and adrenaline has no significant effect on it. The most significant improvement was made in chimpanzees, where their average IQ increased by 65 percent, a special phenomenon called "critical explosion". Since the increased intelligence of chimpanzees is certainly not related to adrenaline, this data is a strong circumstantial evidence for the above conclusions.

The bet between the two was that Chu Tianle had won, because Prutez's note read: It is estimated that human IQ has increased by 35 percent. The error between this value and the measured value is greater than the standard of five percent set at the time of the bet. But Prutz argued that the five percent he was talking about at the time only meant a negative difference, that is, five percent lower than his measured data would be awarded to him, because he had expected it to exceed it! Chu Tianle recognized his strong argument and said with a smile: "I can't wait to lose, I wish to realize that gambling contract - to live to be a hundred years old." ”

When Pauli's swallow slip was opened, it was revealed that there was no bet number, but a formula, exactly as listed in Pauli's official report. Pauli said in the report that he started the study five years ago. Of course, this is a topic of the century, and it is impossible to study it thoroughly in a short period of time, and for now he can only draw a preliminary conclusion: the dense vacuum affects the level of human intelligence through the effect of the quantum level, just as an increase in the concentration of ions in a solution can increase the density of electric current, and an increase in soil fertility can increase the growth rate of plants. Pauli used measured data and theoretical deduction to spell out an empirical formula that could calculate different intelligence improvement values based on different vacuum shrinkage rates. Substituting the current shrinkage rate into the current value gives you exactly the value reported by Prutez: 45 percent.

Compared to Prutez's conclusions, the Pauli formula has a wider range of applications. In the formula, the intelligence improvement value is positively correlated with the shrinkage rate, that is, if the space continues to shrink, human intelligence will also increase, gradually approaching a limit value e~2/3, that is, 1.95. Now that intelligence has increased by 45 percent, there is still a possibility of further improvement.

Colleagues in the scientific community generally accepted Proust's and Pauli's reports.

The report also came to another conclusion: in a dense vacuum, the computing speed of the computer did not increase. This is to be expected, because the speed of computing is based on the speed of light (to be precise, the electric field transmitted at the speed of light), which is already the highest speed in the universe. But this natural conclusion still provokes a small amount of excitement. Naughty ghosts say on the Internet: Human beings don't have to feel inferior in front of powerful computers, because we are relatively smarter.

People all over the world — with their improved intelligence — savor the significance of this conclusion with joy. Adult education immediately became the most fashionable and powerful trend, because billions of people with low levels of knowledge now have a surplus of intelligence, and they do not want to be locked up in the "cage of ignorance" as they used to be. But for the "friends of happiness", there is also pathos floating in the base color of joy, because the improvement of intelligence is based on the "spatial contraction cataclysm", if human beings cannot escape from the cataclysmic area, then the brilliant bloom of intelligence is only a return to the light before death.

The progress of the wormhole ship is extremely rapid. On a day full of spring flowers, He Zizhou took time out of his extremely busy work and returned to the long-lost mountain. He was joined by his colleague Ovrah Haza, a Jewish woman who was a brilliant engineering physicist. and Ji Jichang, who is now also his colleague and a key member of the project team. Ji Jichang also invited his parents here, this is what He Zizhou meant, because today he wants to talk about an important matter with the most important people in the 'Friends of Music', or the soul of the 'Friends of Music'. They didn't summon Alex because they had a disagreement with Alex about it.

The Ma couple and the Chu couple happily received the guests, and they had long regarded Yangyang and Changchang as members of the Ma family. The seventy-nine-year-old is extremely emaciated, but he is mentally healthy and can chat with guests in a wheelchair. Chu Tianle has not returned to Rendan Island to live a secluded life in the past year, because his wife has been pregnant for four months and obviously has a body. Leshui is forty-four years old this year, belonging to the advanced maternal age, although the disabled Chu Tianle can't take care of her, but staying by his side is at least a spiritual comfort. Ma Liuye went to study at Harvard University in the United States and has been gone for a year. There is also a newly hired nanny sister-in-law Xu in the house, Tianle's mother is old after all, and she has enough energy to take care of two disabled people and a pregnant woman.

Everyone sat down, and He Zizhou asked with a little embarrassment: "Are Liu Ye still angry with me?" She went to study abroad, and she didn't tell me about such a big thing, and treated Brother Yangyang as an outsider. ”

Yu Leshui told the truth: "She listened to my advice and left." What I said at the time was, if you want Brother Yangyang to accept you and turn your little sister into a lover, then make up your mind to stay away from him for three years, and then, let him suddenly see a strange mature woman. ”

She said this with a glance at Ovra Haza. A woman's eye is the keenest, and Yu Leshui has seen that Ovra Haza has a very close relationship with Yangyang. So Liu Ye is likely to be hopeless, and when she comes back in three years, the relationship here is already ironclad, but no matter what, she feels that she should tell Liu Ye's thoughts. Yu Leshui knew that in the century-long operation to develop the wormhole spacecraft, a powerful Shaozhuang faction, or Noah's Convention faction, had been formed among scientists, and He Zizhou was its leader, and this Jewish girl must also be an important member of it.

He Zizhou shook his head helplessly, and did not continue to talk about the topic of willow leaves. Obhra Haza looked at Yu Leshui attentively, and clearly understood what she meant, but did not say anything. He Zizhou first asked about the well-being of his family and hugged Uncle Ma. Ma Shiqi in a wheelchair said:

"I'm already a candle in the wind. The body has largely refused to accept foreign nutrients and is slowly devouring itself, first muscle cells and then bones. He pointed to his emaciated limbs, "The most important brain will be devoured at the end, but not too soon." So, while my mind is still clear, I would like to say goodbye to you in advance. ”

Everyone was sad, and behind him, the sixty-eight-year-old Tianle Mother's eyes were red. Mr. Ma is telling the truth. He is a systemic failure caused by aging, and there is no cure. Mr. Ma said heartily:

"As I said, birth, old age, sickness and death are the hardest iron laws set by God, and no one can avoid it, needless to say. However, before admitting defeat to death, I still want to fight for a small victory - to see my grandson born. ”

Yu Leshui hid his sadness and joked openly with the public: "That's no problem, Dad, you work hard, and I'll hurry up a little bit." The space is compressed, can't the pregnancy be compressed? ”

She deliberately grabbed her husband's arm. Over the past year, the husband still has a lot on his heart, and even the joy of fatherhood cannot drive it away. She talked privately about her worries with the second elder and Ji Renrui, and the three of them advised her not to worry, saying that when the time was ripe, Tianle would say it herself. At this time, Ji Renrui looked at the silent Tianle and said to He Zizhou:

"Yangyang, you said there was something important? Let's go. ”

"Okay." He Zizhou looked at everyone happily, "Brother Tianle, you have already said at that remote virtual meeting that for this kind of pure displacement flight caused by space annihilation, or wormhole flight, there is no theoretical limit to its maximum speed, only a technical limit. But you've also worried that the spell of the speed of light limit might continue to work in some roundabout way. ”

Chu Tianle nodded, "Hmm." ”

"It's been a year since we've finally figured it out - the spell has indeed worked! The speed of the wormhole spacecraft can reach the speed of light relative to non-native space, and it can reach Mach 1.7 or even higher! I'm borrowing an aviation term here, Mach 1 is the speed of light. Provided, of course, ......"

He stopped to look at Chu Tianle, who said keenly: "The premise is that the spacecraft has to fly continuously, and give up the intermittent flight method I designed, that is, give up the observation of the front?" ”

"Yes. Brother Tianle, seeing that the hardest iron law of the speed of light in the universe can be broken, how can we resist the temptation of the banshee? ”

Ji Renrui didn't follow He Zizhou's train of thought, and asked suspiciously: "It's not a problem." You can confirm it with experiments, and there is no danger in flying blindly for a short time. ”
