Chapter VII: Confluence
If it is opened on a flat road, more than 2,000 kilometers, it will be there in one day and one night at most.
But in this harsh environment, we drove for four days.
If at the beginning I was attracted by the boundless scenery of the Gobi Desert and praised its handsomeness and beauty, then I have nothing to say later.
I really vomited, and I sat in the car all day, looking at the scenery outside the car window that had not changed for thousands of years, not only dizzy, but also sore in my butt.
Originally, according to Victoria's meaning, it was a day and a night, and it would be possible to arrive in two days, because John gave us so much time.
But I ignored John, I called them directly and said, impossible, let him wait, otherwise I won't go, I'll come if I want to call.
John can only let me toss, his daughter-in-law and son are not in his hands, and I am much tougher.
Occasionally, I could see a few Tibetan antelopes, argali, yaks, etc., and I shouted to catch a few to improve my food.
As a result, he was despised by Victoria: "In vain, you are still Chinese, these are protected animals, don't you know?" One starts in three years, two are indefinite, and three are in prison! ”
"Damn! Isn't it a deer, a sheep and a cow? Eat one or two, no one should be able to see it, don't say it so scary! "I'm not convinced.
"Ignorance! Hum! Victoria snorted.
"Captain, Dejun is playing with you!" Luna covered her mouth and snickered.
Victoria was stunned, looked back, and immediately got angry, slapped me, and hit me grinning.
"Your sister! Hit Lao Tzu on the wound! I yelled.
It's not nonsense, it's really hit.
When he arrived near the agreed coordinate point, Victoria did not go directly, but put a drone and wanted to fly over to check it, but when the drone reached the coordinate point, it was directly bombarded by a miniature missile.
Soon two off-road vehicles came galloping towards us, each with loaded guns and ammunition, and surrounded us.
I wasn't afraid, so I went up and touched the leader's body, and the leader's face was expressionless.
"Cyborgs, I guess these are cyborgs!" I turned to Victoria.
Victoria frowned, clearly unhappy with my reckless behavior.
I know she's worried that John, they're going to die
We, and then snatched the dragon crystal.
But I'm not worried, if John and they really plan to do so, in fact, there is no need, just use my wife and children to exchange with me for dragon crystals, there is no need to do more.
We were escorted by a group of people, I think it was an escort anyway, and we arrived at the forward base.
This forward base is famous, and it is almost impossible to see from the outside that there is something different here.
When we look at it from a distance, we can't see that there is a problem here, and only when we get to the place can we see something strange here.
A kind of stealth material is used here, real stealth, from the outside, this is a vacant land, but closer, from multiple angles, you can still see some vague imprints.
When you open the gate of the base, it is very lively, and at a glance, there are hundreds of people busy preparing various equipment and equipment.
I also saw some flags and uniforms with the logo of so-and-so expedition, apparently to cover people's eyes.
"Hey! Qin, you're here, we've been waiting for you for a long time! "John is even taller and more handsome than he looks in the video, he is at least 1.9 meters, and he stretches out his hands from afar to hug me.
I directly avoided it and stretched out my hand: "We Chinese don't like this way, and we are suspected of taking advantage." Let's shake hands in an international way! ”
John didn't feel embarrassed either, and shook my hand, he had a very strong hand, he was very tall, standing in front of me, and gave me a lot of pressure.
After shaking hands with me, I went to say hello to Victoria, all hugging, even the kind that was close to the face.
"! I want it too! I looked at Victoria and said.
"You Chinese don't like this way, there is a suspicion of taking advantage!" Serena said coldly.
"That's it!" Phoebe rolled her eyes.
Luna covered her mouth and snickered, and the seventh sneered: "You deserve it!" People like you deserve it! ”
"Get out!" I don't have a good airway.
Then I was taken alone and went to the fenced conference room in the very center of the base.
After entering, I saw more than 20 old men.
As I had guessed, I had assumed from the beginning that these old men would follow.
It's impossible not to go, it's the only ones who can't go
People who are about to die, people who are nearing the end of their lives, are full of longing for life, and they want to continue to live at all costs.
In order to survive for oneself, doing things that hurt nature and reason has existed since ancient times, the richer and more powerful people are, the more they cannot cut off their attachment to the world.
"Coming? Have a seat! "An old man at the lead spoke to me in non-standard, but quite proficient Chinese.
I was not polite, I saw a chair, I sat down directly, sat on it and spoke: "According to the information you gave, I guess that thing must not be in the canyon, it must be on a certain mountain peak." The average elevation of the peaks here is 7,000 meters, can you old men still climb the 7,000-meter-high peak? If you can climb up, it's awesome, awesome. ”
Although these old men have never lived in China, they can still hear the ridicule in my words at once.
"You don't have to worry about this, how we go up is our business, on the contrary, it's you, are you ready to go back to your home planet?" The old man who was leading the way just now asked me.
When I heard this question, I couldn't help twitching the muscles on my face, and said speechlessly: "I didn't even think about the bullshit home planet, I actually didn't come here to dissuade you, so don't let you go, do you know how long it takes to get from here to the home planet?" ”
The old men shook their heads and asked me, "You know?" ”
I also shook my head: "I don't know, but I know that if it takes hundreds of thousands of years, you will all become skeletons by the time you arrive, it is better not to go, stay on the earth, with your background power and financial resources, play whatever you want, eat what you want, spend your old age in peace, and enjoy each other's family?" What home planet do you have to go to? In case ........."
"Don't you just in case, don't talk nonsense if you don't know, what if it only takes ten days and half a month? Besides, there are hibernation pods in the spaceship, and it is no problem to sleep for tens or hundreds of years. The old man in the lead said.
I can see that they have eaten the scales and are determined to go, and it is useless for me to fool around.
"Since it's useless to fool, then I can only sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman, I'm just curious to take a look, I won't leave the earth, since your heart is to the home planet, you will go, I won't go, my relatives and friends are on the earth, I can't go!" I'll be honest.
