Chapter 12 Main tasks
Soon, Li Ping wrote a report and sent it to the top, not surprisingly, this discovery caused a great sensation, and the first news came quickly, just a few words.
"Blocking messages."
The simple and direct news made everyone in the research institute have a different taste in their hearts, and it was the news of the blockade, this news is so important to human beings, and the top still wants to make their own decisions.
Although he was very unhappy with this news, Liu Xuan was also helpless, he used the equipment he provided, and the external communication tools were also deprived, and there was no way to transmit the news to the outside world.
Human beings always have a lot of scruples, sometimes these scruples will save mankind, and sometimes they will destroy mankind. Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat.
The second order also came down, and several important researchers were summoned to the parliament to explain it in person. Professor Ma and Li Ping are also among them, and Liu Xuan, as a newcomer, does not have such qualifications.
Without Professor Ma, Liu Xuan would not be able to study space engines on his own, so he could only shuttle between the city boredly, going back and forth between the institute and his residence.
A week passed like this, Li Ping led everyone back to this underground city, Liu Xuan had nothing to do, so he personally went to the door to greet them.
Professor Ma got out of the car, looked at the surrounding environment blankly, and said something that made Liu Xuan have mixed feelings: "It's still really good-looking, and when can we fly freely under the sun." ”
When Li Ping saw Professor Ma like this, she also sighed lightly, and said to Professor Ma: "You lead Liu Xuan to conduct research first, we can have such a discovery, and it is also the insistence of the above, this time we will choose the decision of the above." ”
Professor Ma also sighed lightly, and pulled Liu Xuan to walk towards the research room, along the way, Professor Ma didn't say anything, but his eyes were even more confused. He didn't understand what he was doing research here for. For the sake of self-preservation of the earth or for the conquest of the stars and seas?
Back in the familiar place in the research room, Professor Ma directly took out a cigarette, took out a lighter and lit it, the smoke and dust rose, and the wrinkles on Professor Ma's face became even deeper.
Liu Xuan sat next to him, without words, but he was very shocked in his heart. It is a rule set by Professor Ma that smoking is not allowed in the research room, and he has followed Professor Ma for nearly a month to study, and has been reminded no less than ten times that smoking is not allowed in the research room. Liu Xuan was originally a non-smoker, but he was warned dozens of times like this, so that Liu Xuan didn't know whether he smoked or not.
"Xiao Liu, I'll still call you that. The final order from above has been decided, and we researchers can't change the decision of those politicians by arguing with reason. They asked us to develop a nuclear fission engine as soon as possible and to take the first close-up look at wormholes. Professor Ma took a deep breath, and as the smoke rose, Professor Ma's old eyes blurred.
"If you observe the wormhole up close, I feel that there should be no problem, as long as the advanced civilization on the other side of the wormhole is not discovered, the problem should not be big." Liu Xuanmo stroked his hair and analyzed.
"There are many more requirements. We're going to try to get back to that agreement. Fill in the signature of the earth directly, and then send it back, and we can parse the real content. But first reply to the other person's message and make the first contact. Professor Ma took a puff of his cigarette fiercely, and the sudden thickening smoke made Professor Ma's throat a little unbearable, and he hurriedly spit out a puff of smoke, coughing violently, Professor Ma hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, and between his fingers, a wisp of blood red remained.
"Professor Ma, you?!" Liu Xuan hurriedly stood up and looked at Professor Ma who was coughing up blood with some surprise.
"Sit down!" Professor Ma said sternly, and Professor Ma, who had always been kind, suddenly aggravated his voice, which made Liu Xuan also startled, and subconsciously did what Professor Ma said.
"We study engines, especially aerospace engines, and exposure to radioactive heavy metals is common, and I have had this cancer for a long time." Professor Ma wiped it with a tissue, did not extinguish the cigarette, and continued to smoke.
"Any other orders?" Liu Xuanqiang held back his anger.
"Block the news!" Professor Ma continued to take a puff of cigarette, and between the smoke, Professor Ma's gray hair appeared even more, reflecting the pale color under the light of the research room.
"Hehe, such an important news is still blocked, because I am afraid that the masses will know that this news is out of control?! No, it's not the end of the world, we just want all mankind to determine the direction of the earth's civilization, is it so difficult? Liu Xuan's tone was full of mockery, in their eyes, the people were mediocre, incompetent, and would mess everything up.
Professor Ma waved his hand and motioned for Liu Xuan not to say anything more. Finally, he took a hard puff of the cigarette with only the cigarette butt left, and the cigarette butt lit up instantly, Professor Ma bent his hand and flicked the cigarette butt into the pool, and in the air, the cigarette butt emitted the last light until it reached its strongest brightness.
Laugh at!
The cigarette butt fell into the pool, and the cigarette butt, which was at the peak of burning, was extinguished instantly. It is like the development of civilization, which begins with the light and is destroyed by the light. Water-soaked cigarette butts float on the water, showing the last glory of a civilization.
"Let's not care about it, this is the so-called fate, no one falls directly into the abyss, they were attracted by the abyss at the beginning. Fate is also the same, it's not that you don't have the opportunity to change, but you don't grasp it. Our task is to study the engine first, and whether the future is or not, it is not clear to you and me. Professor Ma breathed a sigh of relief and began to devote himself to his work.
Liu Xuan had no intention of working, walked out of the research room, entered a snack bar in the city, asked for a plate of peanuts and a bottle of beer, sat on the seat in the open air, and looked at the somewhat false starlight above his head while eating and drinking, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.
Liu Xuan's alcohol consumption was not very good, and after drinking a bottle of beer, his eyes were foggy, and the whole world he saw was ghosted. When he was a child, his mother told him that if you want to be a smart person, don't let alcohol numb your brain, and Liu Xuan has always kept it in mind. This was one of the few times he had ever had a drink.
Looking at the surrounding scenery in a daze, the scenery projected by the whole system is so real, even if it is night, it is so quiet, this may be the last tranquility before the launch treaty.
"Drunk eyes look at the world, the world is intoxicated with me."
Liu Xuan hummed the music lightly and returned to the research institute, now no matter what he does, he can't change the order, so let the human race become stronger! Civilization at the highest level has no enemies.
