Chapter 51: The Man of Steel
After a day and a night of hurrying, they were finally only about ten kilometers away from their destination, and at this moment both of them raised their vigilance.
But when the guide car stopped steadily, Li Jun and Sun Qian were dumbfounded, and the surroundings were still endless gray and white, but here was a flat moon land, different from the potholes in other places, except for these, there was no other difference.
Li Jun took a look and found a strange place, only to see that with the soles of his feet as the boundary, the ground behind him was still the original appearance of the moon, with potholes and gravel, but after crossing the boundary, the surface was this flat lunar land.
"There's nothing here?"
Sun Qian asked with some confusion.
Li Jun shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
"Go ahead and take another look."
After finishing speaking, the two got into the guide car, and Li Jun drove slowly towards the front.
After advancing a distance of about five hundred meters, at this moment, there was flat ground in front of and behind Li Jun, and he stopped the guide car.
The two of them walked down and stood on the ground, still as before, both of them full of doubts.
Li Jungang wanted to speak.
"Boom!" With a bang, the ground shook and shook, startling both of them.
The two of them looked around, but they still didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
"Get in the car!" Li Jun said to this Sun Qian.
The two hurriedly got into the guide car.
Just as he got into the car, before he started the car, Li Jun felt that he was moving forward along with the entire vehicle.
Sun Qian also felt unusual, and looked at Li Jun with wide eyes.
"What's going on??"
"Shhhhh
Said softly.
"Don't make a sound, let's see first."
He didn't start the guide car, and sat quietly on the guide car with Sun Qian.
After the guide car shifted a certain distance, Li Jun felt the whole thing stop.
Li Jun was about to get out of the car to check, but before he could make a move, the car moved again.
However, this time the direction was different, and Li Jun felt that the two of them and the vehicle were descending vertically, and the speed was getting faster and faster.
Although the speed was fast, the two did not feel any discomfort.
Li Jun looked up, and where the two of them were just now, a hole was exposed, which had gradually closed at this moment.
Li Jun and Sun Qian took the guide car and kept descending, and after a full minute, they stopped.
Li Jun estimated that the altitude of the descent just now was about five thousand meters, and it was certain that this passage was definitely not built by earthlings, because human beings have not yet been able to build such a deep passage pit on the moon.
There was no other light around, but fortunately, the headlights of the guide car were automatically turned on, so that it would not be dark all around.
The two of them were a little unclear at the moment, and they didn't know what to do next.
"Click!" The sound of machinery running was heard.
"Who!!" Li Jun shouted.
turned his head to protect Sun Qian next to him, but when he turned his head, he saw Sun Qian leaning on the back of the chair as if unconscious.
Li Jun quickly shook her.
"Sun Qian! What happened to you? ”
But no matter how much he shouted, it was to no avail, Sun Qian's eyes were always closed.
"Don't worry, she's fine, she's just asleep."
A mechanical voice came.
Li Jun turned his head, and through the light of the guide car, he saw the giant "creature" in front of him clearly.
A full 10 meters tall. He was swinging his arms towards him.
Walking to a distance of three meters from the guide car, he stretched out a hand towards Li Jun.
An arm that was close to five meters stretched out towards Li Jun.
"Welcome, human."
Li Jun began to see his arm stretched out, and thought that the other party was trying to attack him, but after hearing this, the giant hand just stopped in front of him.
"Are you trying to shake my hand?"
Li Jun couldn't figure out the other party's thoughts, but he still stretched out his hand and held the other party's giant hand, but his hand was too small to hold one of the other party's fingers.
As soon as he held the other party's hand, a cold feeling came, and Li Jun knew that the other party's body was made of steel.
"You are?"
"Hello, I was ordered to come to pick you up, you can call me: One, One Three, this is my code name."
After shaking hands, the other party said directly to Li Jun.
"Please follow me."
"Where are I going with you? Who are you? ”
The other party explained.
"Don't worry, we have no malicious intentions, as for who we are, we will know when you arrive."
Li Jun looked at Sun Qian beside him.
"And what about my friend?"
"You can rest assured that she is safe here. I'll send her up in a moment. ”
Li Jun shook his head and said very firmly.
"No, it's not safe for her to go out alone, and where are you going to take me? I'm going to take her with me. ”
After Li Jun finished speaking, he saw the other party stand up straight, and after a long while, he said to Li Jun.
"Okay, we agree with you."
After finishing speaking, Li Jun saw that the other party stretched out his big hand, and directly grabbed Sun Qian and put it flat in the palm of his hand.
"Be careful."
Li Jun saw the other party's movements, for fear that the other party's iron hand would hurt Sun Qian.
"Don't worry, she's safe, please come with me now."
After finishing speaking, the other party held Sun Qian in his hand, turned around and walked forward.
When Li Jun saw it, he quickly followed.
After walking through the area, Li Jun watched as it reached out and pushed it towards the wall in front of him.
A "creaking, creaking" sound rang out, and the wall in front of it was pushed deep in.
When he had advanced about ten meters, he stopped, walked in, and turned around to signal Li Jun to follow.
Li Jun walked in quickly, then turned left and followed him into a passage more than ten meters high.
As soon as Li Jun entered with his front foot, the wall behind him moved, restored to its original appearance, and directly sealed the back road.
The aisle was not as dark as it used to be, with glowing circular spheres hanging every ten meters on either side.
"This is a mirror stone, which can absorb the light source and store it, and then slowly emit the light source in a dark place."
The one in front of him explained to Li Jun.
Li Jun looked up at the mirror stone above, it looked round, and the smooth surface did look like a mirror on the earth.
"Very beautiful stone."
"Yes, this kind of stone is only available to us."
Li Jun saw the big man in front of him, and also stopped, staring at the mirror stone above his head.
The steel-cast face actually showed a sad expression.
After a while.
"Let's go."
only heard the one and one three in front of him say a word to this Li Jun, and the two continued to walk towards the front of the passage.
"Robots?"
Li Jun asked as he walked, as an earthling, he only learned about the existence of alien creatures not long ago, and he was still very curious about the robot he saw today.
"Yes, machines are our bodies."
"Oh oh..." Li Jun nodded, revealing a puzzled expression.
Ichizo saw his expression and said.
"I know what you're thinking, you don't have to wonder, you see me and I feel the same way I see you. There are many species in this starry sky, each with its own unique way of living. ”
"You humans are also seriously alien to us, and your evolutionary direction is completely opposite to us, normally speaking, species will evolve into us in order to survive: the appearance will evolve into a hard shell to protect the fragile parts, but the direction of human evolution is very different, using the fragile flesh to protect the hard bones, which is really difficult to understand."
After Li Jun heard what he said, he thought for a while, this is indeed the truth, but he also doesn't know why human beings have evolved into this kind of "skin and bones" instead of "bone bags. skin".
"Here we are."
The one one three in front said a word.
The two of them were now standing at the end of the passage, in front of a huge gate.
