After the first few days of uneasiness and fear, everyone slowly calmed down their anxious mood, and several optimistic people such as waiter Nazha, chef Xie Dabao, machine inspector Mobuto, etc. began to take the lead in talking and laughing, and others were also driven to talk and laugh.

I sat in the lounge reading a book, which could have served some drinks or snacks or something, but in the long run, it wasn't available, and who knows how long it would take to find my way home! Food is extremely important to us, and this aspect has been regulated, but the good thing is that what is not a consumable is at your disposal.

The title of the book is Gu Ling Fun Talk, and the book was written by an earthling. Speak of many of the same things in ancient times and in the present with different treatment and values. For example, a diamond that was used in kilograms as a refractive component of the light guide system was still very valuable a thousand years ago. At that time, the production of diamonds on the earth was very small, unlike now, when you go to a diamond-rich planet and you can mine diamonds like iron ore in ancient times, a one-carat diamond in the 21st century can only be afforded by ordinary people with an income of a few months to a year. Aluminium, which is now produced in the tens of millions of tons, was worth more than the precious metal silver until the end of the nineteenth century. Coal that used to be used as a fuel is now used as a precious fossil for the study of ancient plants. The amount of mining is too large, and it is basically exhausted, and it is more and more loved and collected by people.

Lao Mai slipped over at some point, and Luo Yuxiang was faintly happy, seeing that I was reading, he walked over and raised his eyebrows, looking very happy: "Young man, what kind of ancient books are you reading?" ”

I shook the book in my hand. "Gu Lingqu talks about what's so good about this, let's listen to my old man tell interesting stories for a while!"

"Okay!" I really like to hear Lao Mai talk about his asteroid exploration, and Lao Mai starts to talk about it again.

As I was listening, Dabao came over, and his face was sad and frowning, so that the little eyes on his slightly chubby face were about to become slits. I'm also interested in food, and I've asked Dabao a lot about how to make delicious food in a relatively special way in space, and the two have gradually crossed paths.

"Jingtian, come and do me a favor." Dabao motioned for me to stand up and follow him.

"What's wrong!" I stood up, smiled at the old man, apologized, and followed.

Dabao motioned for me to walk outside, and when I got to the aisle outside, Dabao whispered to my ear: "Actually, I didn't ask you to help, we used a few bags of instant hot bags of beef yesterday, do you remember!" "I know Dabao and I very well these days, and I often go to the kitchen to help out, and yesterday we prepared dinner together.

I took a look at Dabao, recalled for a moment and said, "I didn't pay attention to a few bags used, but I remember that there were still ten bags left in the box." ”

Dabao blinked and said, "Sure?" ”

"Haven't you still carried forward your style! Speaking of three people, it looks like I'm going to run out of meat tomorrow. ”

Seeing me say this, Dabao smiled honestly: "You also know that if this beef is dismantled, if you don't eat it immediately for a day, the taste will be too bad, if I want to eat it, I have to open an extra portion, so that there will be excess leftovers, as a chef, I want to ensure that everyone eats delicious." ”

I blinked, and the chubby chef seemed so appealing, and my chest seemed to be slightly warm.

"But we have thirty-one people here, and if you say ten packs at a time, it's always less than one person, so don't you eat it every time." I suddenly had such a question.

"This one!" The eldest baby smiled again and said, "Of course I can't be so noble, in fact, there are three people who take turns." ”

"Who is it?" I thought it was pretty much the same, but I asked with some curiosity.

"One is the captain, and the other says she doesn't particularly like beef, and she asked me to keep it a secret." Dabao said mysteriously.

My heart warmed up again, and I couldn't help blurting out a sentence: "Then count me in!" ”

Dabao nodded slightly and said, "But there may be a problem now, I found that there are only nine packs left today, and I called you here to make sure that I am not mistaken." ”

"What! One pack less. I was stunned and looked into Dabao's eyes.

"It won't be ......" I was speechless, if it was as I thought, then this man was too hateful.

Dabao exhaled deeply, slept and said: "If there is another decrease in food, I will report it to the captain, I hope it is the last time, I will go first, and I will prepare dinner." ”

Looking at Dabao's slowly departing figure, I seem to like him more. For the next few days, no food was lost, and Dabao's mood improved, maybe both of us were mistaken. On this boat, except for the waiter Hong Sijia, my age is young, I gradually became familiar with everyone, and everyone is quite happy to talk about this and that with a fairly wide range of knowledge, I know a little bit about all aspects, in a closed space, communication is too important, sometimes more important than food.

Ten days have passed, and we have been bored in this transport for ten days. There's nothing to do every day except to chat, read a book, and work out in that improvised gym. The myriad stars that have been withdrawn from the vast universe form an array of ecstasy that seems to want to devour some of those who offend it, but I believe it will leave a right path for those who fear it and know it.

On this day, the slender second mate Mikel walked into the lounge with her signature buttocks twisted and said in her slightly hoarse mezzo-soprano: "Good news, guys, we have found a terrestrial planet with a high probability of life. ”

"Wow" suddenly boiled in the cabin, and people shouted and screamed excitedly, venting their pent-up emotions for many days. Some of the men hit each other's chests, while the ladies hugged each other and cried, and the intent lovers seemed to have a sudden increase in affection at this moment. Inspector Brestoya rushed at Mikel, presumably trying to give her a hug.

Mikel leaned over to one side, returned Brestoia's outstretched arms tightly to his sides with both hands, and said with a smile: "Boy, don't try to take advantage of the opportunity. ”

Everyone burst into laughter. Brestoya blushed and said, "No! No! ”

But his words only had the effect of getting darker and darker. In an enclosed space, some people's hormones are extraordinarily rich, which brings people unexpected suburban fruits.

Finally able to fly faster than the speed of light again, I put on safety equipment in the safety cabin according to the prompt sound, looking at the stars outside the cabin that gradually accelerated their movement, and soon, my brain banged, and the whole person also entered the light barrier state with the spacecraft. After a long time, the slow-release wave hit my brain again, I gradually regained my senses, the faster-than-light flight was over, I glanced at the flight record of the cabin, cosmic time flew for 15 days, 15 light years is not far away! I thought to myself.

"Captain, we are starting to enter the outer reaches of the star system, entering the regular cruising speed, and it will take about 15 hours to reach the target constellation." Feng Hongyin replied loudly, hoping to lead people into an excellent working state, Feng Hongyin stared at the information on the screen intently, for fear of missing a piece of data.

"What are the results of the overspeed radar detection." Case. Locke's speed of speech increased slightly, although it was only a little faster, but Feng Hongyin still heard out of place. Locke was excited, she turned her head to look at the captain, and showed a reassuring smile:

"There are seven planets in this star system, terrestrial planets are 160 million kilometers away from the star, 09,000 kilometers in diameter, and there are two gas giants in outer orbit (1), and the whole system structure is very conducive to the formation of life."

Case. The muscles on Locke's face moved slowly, and the small muscles tried to create a slightly widening expression on his face. Thick fingers tapped rhythmically on the counter in front of him, and two words popped out for a long time: "Forward." ”

I was sitting in the cabin and suddenly I saw a star in the distance that was so bright that it overshadowed the stars around me and seemed to show us the way forward. The star is getting bigger and brighter, and it is gradually revealing its true face, a star with a long life, and we are entering its gravitational sphere. Soon two more bright stars showed its form, one large and one small, the larger one revealing most of its body, and the smaller one showing only a small wisp of bent shyness. This is the terrestrial planet we are looking for.

The spaceship continued to move forward, and Lao Mai and I ran to the observation module to find the best viewing angle, and there were already many people in the observation module, except for the pilots of the spacecraft. The scorching glow of the star imprinted our figures on the chamber through the window of the observation module, as if to tell us not to get too close to it, and the spacecraft, perhaps sensing the star's intentions, finally slowed down and went into a low state again.

The planet is getting closer and closer, and with my eyesight, I can see that the planet is showing patches of red without the help of observation instruments, and my heart is beating faster, is this a planet similar to the Red Flame Star when I last set out? But as the distance narrowed again, I suddenly felt like I was in a cold space, and people couldn't help but shiver. Fortunately, this feeling was very short-lived, and the hope for the future that somehow arose removed my anxiety. But the other people in the cabin could no longer control their emotions, and the crying gradually sounded, and it entered everyone's ears like a sad melody, making the space that was once full of heat gradually cold.

Note (1): Large gaseous planets in far orbit can protect planets in near orbit from asteroid impact to a certain extent, which is of great help to the formation of life on planets in near orbit.
