The Moon (2) Hello, Earth......
This is the Moon, three or four hundred thousand kilometers from the Earth.
The two planets are neighbors that do not come to each other, isolated from each other, and the people on the moon cannot be seen on the earth, and the moon cannot see the people on the earth.
The two are separated by a vast "sea of stars".
The sea of stars is beautiful and mysterious, especially attracting young girls on the moon.
Han Shiying is already a student at Yueping Middle School, and he has become taller and his eyes are more focused; The etiquette training made his waist straighter, and there was often a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth - this was his personal label, such a tired and stupid behavior, who would do it but him?
It's true that a smile makes him more relatable, more sunny and handsome.
He was born on the moon, spent his childhood on the moon, and was a native of the moon.
The emaciated body, thin little lips, white as paper face, a pair of eyes full of vitality, and a tall man--- this is the "Moon Anorexia Boy" Han Shiying.
He hadn't eaten a full meal for a long time, and the last time he had a full meal was the nutrient solution in the inoculation device, when he was still an egg.
His eyes were incomparably bright, radiating an unyielding light. He was so thin, but he was full of infinite vitality.
The nasty stomach twitched violently, desperately compressing the air inside, making a gurgling sound.
"You're naughty! The brain is about to shut down and you don't say anything, what are you doing! ”
Han Shiying took out a rope and tightened his stomach, so that it was much more comfortable.
He finally understood why those officials always wore a belt, but they had delicious [white potato cakes], so they didn't have to worry about being hungry, so Han Shiying judged that they were wearing belts for pretending to be forced.
The unpalatable food and the pitiful supply of water had to be picked up after he had woken up, and before that he had to endure it, treating himself as a piece of hard basalt, without eating or drinking, peaceful and peaceful.
It's hard! It's really hard to live, when will this day be a head?
Whenever he was hungry and his stomach hurt, he would look at another planet in the distance to divert his attention, that planet was blue, mysterious, and draped in a veil, like a quiet girl in the shadows, like a jewel shining in the darkness.
Many people say that the earth is quite cold, colder than our nights...... Is it true? Blue does give people an icy feeling.
He likes to look up at the starry sky, and whenever he is fascinated by it but has to return to reality, he is impatient and uncomfortable, he tramples the ground angrily, and his feet are stuck in the rubble; He kicked the boulder more than five meters high to pieces, kicking no stone bigger than his fist around, and kicking his foot weak.
Whenever the vast starry sky appeared before his eyes, his thoughts would always pass through the thin atmosphere, and he had many questions:
What is it like beyond the moon?
On the other side of the sea of stars, what kind of novelties are there?
Han Shiying sat on the basalt, he looked at the twinkling stars in the sky, and those stars seemed to wink at him, as if showing off:
We are free!
"Phew! If you don't move, you're not as good as me. ”
The moon is like a closed big iron box, there is no entry outside, and there is no way out inside, boring scenery, cold human hearts, the soul is pressed, although the body can breathe, but the soul is already close to suffocation.
Does it really make sense to live like this?
Han Shiying looked at the tall tower in the distance, giving birth to a simple and boring "lunar ecology" atmospheric transformation system.
This system creates the atmosphere on the moon, so that the temperature difference of the moon can be reduced to a certain extent, and the air of the moon begins to flow, which is the wind of the moon.
This mist-filled steel tower, with a red glow radiating from its top, roared so loudly that it could be heard from 100 kilometers away; How many children are scared and nightmares, and how many elementary school students are scared to wet their pants!
213 years of history, in the textbook of lunar history, the first page is "the construction and completion of the 'Moon Peak'"; But Han Shiying doesn't believe in history textbooks, can this thing be made by moon people? Or 200 years ago?
From the foundation to the spire as high as 3,185 meters, the ground pipeline is laid in width and width of more than 25,000 meters, and the huge steel body also represents a huge energy consumption, 60% of the moon's energy production is used on this guy, which is worthy of the name of the first building on the moon.
This tower is called [Moon Peak], this is the history of the moon people, without it, there would be no ancestors of the moon, and there would be no new generation of them.
The construction of this tall tower took only 6 years and is a miracle.
When Han Shiying was a child, he visited this tower, this tower, just the ground engineering can be visited by many people, not to mention the larger underground engineering.
Han Shiying saw this tower for the first time, and his heart palpitated, looking at this immortal first masterpiece of the moon, he felt his own insignificance, as if looking up at a giant in the sky...... The loud sound of whining forced everyone to wear earplugs, looking at the steel body, as if there was a strange force tugging at his soul, mocking him, torturing him, insulting him.
There was a white light in the distance, and it was the [First Lunar Universe Company].
Lunar First Universe Company, in the hearts of the new generation of the moon, is a lock that imprisons thoughts.
It is the watchman on the moon, the supreme authority on the moon, a butcher's knife stained with the blood of the seeker of freedom.
The First Lunar Space Company was founded during the "Great Construction" period, and the second lesson in history textbooks is "The Birth of the Lunar Government".
No matter how much history textbooks exaggerate its glorious image, Han Shiying will not change it a little; Lifelong tenure made the seeds of numbness and pedantic take root and sprout on the moon, and eventually "bloom everywhere" and become "thousands of purples and thousands of reds......
The leaders of the First Universe Company are unenterprising, conservative and closed-minded, imprisoning their minds and destroying their creativity...... Poor moon is already riddled with holes.
Especially the "Law of the Moon", which represents the authority of the First Lunar Universe Company, Han Shiying can't even read it, he is not too lazy to read it, but he hates to read it, his teeth are itchy with those words, and he can't read it after reading two pages.
Even if I break these rules, I won't regret it.
I'll never follow that red tape......
Rotten life, you want it, just give it to you, I've lived enough!
I only act according to my moral standards, and I will never be reduced to a tool of slavery......
I am flesh and blood, why should I be at the mercy of a pile of words?
But Han Shiying is one of the many beings on the moon after all, he is powerless to resist oppression, no matter how hard his mouth is, he can only be hard for a while; He's not a savior, at least not yet.
The Law of the Moon imprisons the minds of the Moonmen, including all new generations of the Moon.
They are miserable, helpless, and full of hatred for the Cosmic Corporation.
Therefore, Han Shiying never knew what the earth was and what existed on the earth, and he could only vaguely see the vague outline of the blue planet through the thin atmosphere.
How many secrets does the beautiful blue planet itself hide?
Open your arms, I want to hug you! Our days are too hard, when is it a head?
Because the population is small, it is mainly distributed in the plains, and each dwelling is far away.
In such a place, Han Shiying felt the coldness and horror of people's hearts, and he felt that his edges and corners were gradually smoothed out by the high-pressure rule.
Struggling with emptiness and pain, wandering back and forth between despair and hope...... Cold, empty, every breath is a rebellion against oppression and exploitation.
As for reproduction, it is only after one or two generations have passed away that DNA is collected once, and all of it is handed over to the Cosmos Corporation to be processed, cultivated in the instrument, and received a unified education.
There are no parents here, the moon is too poor, so poor that pregnant women are not allowed.
There is no better time than dreams.
Every time Han Shiying fell asleep, he didn't want to wake up.
It may be that the creator is too sad to see the moon people, so he makes their dreams better, so that they can digest the blows and frustrations suffered in reality in their dreams, and let the dreams fill the emptiness of reality.
Dreams are the gods of the moon people, bringing them hope and joy.
The more unknown and hopeful you are, the more wonderful the dream will be, and every moon man is a dream master.
For example, a sad hungry man, he will never dream that he is hungry in his dreams, everything in his dreams can be eaten, all kinds of rocks, mountains, earth, sky, stars, but we don't know what it tastes like.
Including Han Shiying, Han Shiying is in a dream, it is omnipotent to fly to the sky and the earth, travel to the stars and the universe, and even set foot on the earth - after all, he has never been, everything is just based on his own imagination.
Of course, dreaming of a beautiful woman will also make Han Shiying excited, after all, he has grown up.
But dreams are not reality, dreams are only for a short time, and reality is the real life.
Alas!
The boring geography of the moon in the textbook, what friendly peaks, what moon sea, is not all stones?
Also the Moon Elite Study, I am me, what do you learn from others?
The lunar atmosphere simply suffocates the brain, I'll you on the theory of lunar peak dynamics!
The history of the moon feels like it's all made up, like a myth and legend......
There was once a student at Yueping Middle School who was very fantasical and observant, and was as obsessed with the earth as Han Shiying.
With his beautiful fantasies and meticulous observations, he relied on his imagination and observation records to depict the face of the earth in words, and also expressed his unremitting pursuit of freedom.
He didn't know what method he used, what energy he used, but he actually published it on Pravda, and it immediately became famous all over the world and shocked the entire moon.
He preached that there are more beautiful landscapes on earth, and that there are many things on earth that we have not seen before.
This touched the new generation of people on the moon who were imprisoned in their minds.
He said that there is life like us on Earth, a civilization like us, which is a bad thing, and Lunar First Universe has always tabooed this.
The article and its transcript were destroyed, and the student was punished for "fabricating out of thin air" and "disrupting the stability and order of the moon", and his whereabouts are still unknown.
There are many theories, and until now there is no evidence of where the student is.
All kinds of fanciful conjectures emerge one after another, such as "spaceship escape theory", "exile cosmology" and so on......
Han Shiying has seen the transcribed version of the article, but it is impossible to know whether it is the original text.
The article roughly reads:
Earth is a product of our fantasies, because none of us has ever been there, and we have no ability to go there, we can only carry the spaceship of the "dream", going back and forth day and night.
Dreams don't give us knowledge, so it's useless to just get some sleep.
The earth is full of unknowns, and it is the unknown that makes it even more fascinating and lovely......
I've made a series of observations, plus some strange and ancient "legends of the moon" to deduce, and this is not necessarily accurate, but at least I was the first to do so, and if there is a mistake, please correct it:
Earth is supposed to have a pleasant climate, and I don't believe it's an icy planet because it has the sun nearby.
She is supposed to be cute and suave, but sometimes she loses her temper, and when she loses her temper, it is very scary......
Infinite resources are its eternal treasures, and the vast land is definitely pregnant with life, and it is also a higher intelligent life.
The earth is a huge treasure, the blue plain is vast, the deep blue plain uplifts the yellow-green plateau, the form is thousands, there is a sense of "totem", on the plateau, the white mountains and rivers are staggered and extended, unpredictable...... This beautiful planet is like a blue gem in the vast sea of stars, shining with beautiful life......
Han Shiying often dreamed that he was on the earth, the dark blue heaven and earth, with half darkness and half light, hazy and extremely mysterious, which made him haunted by his dreams and couldn't extricate himself.
Is this the real Earth? How I want to see the real earth! The beauty of fantasy made him hate this cold moon even more.
Is it the same with the earth, where knowledge and ideas are forcibly indoctrinated, and then endlessly sacrificed to death?
"No, definitely not!"
A voice appeared in his head, echoing violently.
He patted his head, and he was a little suspicious that he was faint from hunger.
Every day when you open your eyes and eat a bite or two of ball food, you have to go to school and learn knowledge, which is a necessary part of a highly intelligent life.
You must keep your pace low, otherwise you will "float" up and be blinded by the people around you; Low gravity is a troublesome matter, and the moonmen have not completely solved it until now.
The only solution is counterweights, but few people want that.
The barren land of the moon lacks fertility in the soil, so it can only grow extremely unpalatable lunar crops, such as lunar vegetables, lunar lettuce, and lunar rape, all of which are hard and tough, bitter and astringent, and difficult to swallow.
The scarce lunar sweet potato, which is only slightly larger than a thumb nail and slightly astringent, is already the most popular crop on the moon.
This kind of thing is not eaten by students, and it is difficult for teachers to get it, so it is mainly supplied to the people of the Moon Company.
Han Shiying walked into the classroom with a tired state, the classroom was extremely dim, and the lack of energy could not support the appearance of lighting equipment, only relying on the cosmic starlight outside the window, dimly shining in the room, and the class was difficult.
Carlo looked at Han Shiying and smiled tiredly, he didn't have a good rest.
"Today we continue to interpret the great lunar plain engineering ......"
Hearing this, Han Shiying fell asleep, and among the 15 students in the class, he was the only one who didn't listen to the class, and the teacher could see it at a glance.
"Han Shiying, who was the first to grow a lunar dish?"
"It's a teacher......"
There was laughter in the classroom, and Han Shiying realized that he was talking nonsense in a daze, and sat down embarrassed.
"I should have thrown you into the universe! The competition on the moon is so fierce, you are not nervous at all? ”
The teacher was not wrong, on the moon, the competition is indeed fierce, survival is indeed difficult, under the strict rationing system, if you do not work hard to climb up, you will starve for a long time, your whole body will shrink, and eventually starve to death.
"Teacher, I want to ask you a question."
A hint of cowardice flashed in Han Shiying's eyes, but he still stubbornly planned to ask to the end.
"Say it, as long as it's related to the classroom......
"What kind of place is the earth? Is there life at all? ”
He was expecting the teacher to answer him, even if the chances were so slim.
This sentence is a bit of a question for the teacher, but it is clear that it is definitely a question that should not be asked.
It's not just a question that shouldn't be asked, it's a big taboo.
The teacher's face sank for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched, his eyelids jumped around, and his eyeballs seemed to be fighting with them.
He glared and crooked his mouth and shouted:
"You get me out! Get out! Penalty stand until the end of school! ”
Later, Han Shiying realized that this punishment was light enough, and his behavior had violated the "Law of the Moon".
Standing at the end of the school, he looked at the end of the dim corridor, and then looked at the twinkling starry sky on the skylight, he really didn't understand, why the people here are so sensitive to the earth, why he was born to build this lifeless planet, what are he living for?
Carlo looked at Han Shiying, who was standing on the penalty station, and whispered:
"You're really brave enough to ask that in class, I had the idea, but I didn't dare ask."
Han Shiying smiled.
“”
"I'll go back first, you can go home quickly!"
Han Shiying just wanted to leave, and a cold hand was placed on his neck.
Han Shiying was frightened, and when he looked back, it was actually a little girl, the little girl who appeared in his dreams every day.
"Are you tired of standing?"
She whispered very much, and pretended to look at the starry sky at the skylight, not at him.
"Don't get tired ......"
Han Shiying added: "But it's boring. ”
"You're really 'newborn calves aren't afraid of tigers'! If I were a teacher, I would exile you directly to Lunar Peak! ”
"Really? Is it that serious? ”
"What do you say? You can't talk about the earth in public! Don't you know...... You can all be sent to trial, as long as there is a 'traitor' in our class, you are finished." ”
"I really don't know...... It's also so weird. ”
Han Shiying's face was flushed, and she was already sweating; It was the first time he was so nervous, he felt like his body was filled with lead, and he was trembling from the back of his head to the toes, and his whole body was numb and uncomfortable.
"Hmm...... You have to be careful in the future, you only have one life, and if you lose it, you can't get it back. ”
"I'll take note, thank you."
Han Shiying still didn't dare to look at her, he felt a fire rise from his body, burning his heart and making him suffer.
"Qiu Mengxue, do you like this planet?"
"This ...... It's a secret for the time being, so I won't tell you yet. ”
"Why, why can't we mention the Earth? The Earth is the closest star to us! ”
Han Shiying changed the topic, she didn't want to say, so don't ask.
"Be quiet! was discovered, neither of us could eat and walk! ”
She was a little anxious and reminded Han Shiying in a hurry.
"Hey, hey, what are you two doing!"
A student from a neighboring class couldn't help but look at them talking nonsense.
"I taught him who was the first person to grow a ball dish! Didn't he answer? What a fool! ”
Qiu Mengxue hurriedly explained.
"It's so simple to teach, it's really a fool."
The student was very bullish and walked away with his head held high.
"I'm not a fool!"
Han Shiying was a little unwilling. In fact, he knows the answer to this question, which is too simple!
"Cut, you're not self-aware."
Qiu Mengxue looked at the starry sky and said briskly.
"You look me in the eye!"
Qiu Mengxue really turned his head, and with this look, he was completely defeated.
It was as if his heart had been punched, and a strange electric current passed through his whole body, although it did not hurt, but it had greater energy, making his bones weak and numb, and he completely lost his resistance.
What does that feel like?
A sweet and sour feeling grows in my heart, as if a dream has become reality.
In the clear eyes, there were a few silver stars, probably because of nervousness, the cute little lips were tightened, and they were even more ruddy; Her face was red, too, and even the roots of her ears were red! This level of shyness is almost on par with Han Shiying.
She seemed to be from another world, but she was a little ethereal, and he was a little fluttering when he saw it.
She is high-spirited and energetic, not at all like she grew up eating unpalatable moon dishes......
Han Shiying could not see the scars left by hunger on her body. She eats the same thing as herself every day, but it is completely different from her own state...... What kind of supernatural powers does she have?
Han Shiying felt uncomfortable, as if her soul had nowhere to settle down, and her body was hot and unbearable.
Qiu Mengxue was hot, but she was embarrassed to mention it.
"Then I'll call you Xiaoxue in the future."
"Feel free to do so...... Xia Yusheng also called me Xiaoxue. ”
There is no snow on the moon, but it is possible to dream of snow, to dream of the snow that only exists in consciousness.
"Xiaoxue screams how cute, you are as cute and beautiful as your name, I really want to be friends with you."
"Then be friends...... We'll be friends from now on! ”
Qiu Mengxue was really embarrassed to hear him praise herself like this, she was now "Qiu Hongxue", and her face was not ordinary red.
"Really! You're so nice! ”
Han Shiying jumped up excitedly, he was very happy.
"By the way, can you tell me why you always giggle?"
When Qiu Mengxue said this, her face turned even redder.
"What a smirk, it's obviously a smile! I'm an optimistic person and a healthy person, so why should I keep a dead face? ”
"Don't be tough, it's just a giggle! Because you're silly when you laugh! ”
She smiled, and laughed heartily.
"Then, again... Goodbye! Until next time! ”
Han Shiying was in high spirits, and "jumped" out of the school gate like a gust of wind; He's never been so happy, never.
Han Shiying jumped, he ran wildly all the way, his body as light as a feather.
The arrogant sun quickly raised its head from the east, but the temperature was still cold, and it took a while to warm up.
It's time of day and night again, cold and hot, and it's hot again.
The sky was still so dark and dim; The earth that has lost its warmth is so dead and silent.
Few people were willing to stand in this bone-chilling day, hurrying to their respective residences.
Han Shiying didn't feel cold at all. Walking on the road flutteringly, everything is so beautiful! The once inconspicuous stars in the sky now seem to be a hundred times more dazzling, a thousand times more dazzling than before, dazzling. The soil of the moon, which was once rare to see, is also so crystal clear that it makes people happy. I used to look at the school building that I hated, but now I look at it, and it is so refreshing!
The ring-shaped hills, the cold earth, the dazzling sky, including the rolling cold wind, are all so beautiful. Han Shiying, finally know what he is living for!
The bitter life is really coming to an end!
It is as if a gentle light finally shines into a closed space that has never been opened, dispelling the darkness, and the warmth of the light is really the loveliest thing in the world.
There is no sound around, only the wind howling fiercely, looking at the blue planet, I feel an inexplicable coolness in my heart, due to the distance, plus a layer of lunar atmosphere, how to look at it also feels a little blurry.
The distance between reality and hope is the distance between the moon and the earth.
Han Shiying sighed: "This planet is really beautiful, I wonder if there is a life like us on it?" ”
He looked around, and when he was sure that there was no one, he cried out:
"Earth, hello~~!"
The sound echoed in the cold mountains and rivers, and the sound echoed repeatedly around the barren people.
The Earth in the distance was silent, and there was no response.
"Yikes! I don't know if there are people like me on the earth! He thought to himself, but then shook his head: such a beautiful planet, it is simply heaven! How can there be someone like me?
In the evening, Han Shiying had a dream about the earth again, in the dream, he traveled between the vast white world, the earth, the fantastic dark blue earth, giving people a sense of steadfastness and making people feel refreshed.
"Earth...... Hello ......"
Han Shiying muttered in her dream.
Ah, life on the moon, so irritable! Can the most fantasy-loving teenagers and girls not fantasize about the mysterious and lovely earth?
