Chapter 25 A Proverb
Day and night, day after day, night after night.
One day at noon, when everyone was resting, Zhen Huan was lying on the ground, chatting weakly with Liri next to him.
"Chief."
"Huh?"
"Isn't it a prophecy?"
"What do you mean?"
"How many days have we been gone? According to Earth time, it's almost two or three months! β
"Well, it should be almost!"
"Remember when I told me about the Sahara Desert?"
"Impressions."
"At that time, to boost morale, I told everyone that even if we landed in the Sahara Desert, we could get out!"
"Well, that's what you said at the time."
"Isn't it a prophecy? Why can't we get out! ......" Zhen Huan breathed a long sigh of relief.
"You believe this?"
"It's not, but as time goes by, my heart becomes more and more bottomless."
"Not only do you have no bottom, look at everyone's recent looks, it's good if you haven't collapsed."
"Yes, my physical and mental strength is seriously overdrawn! I finally realized what the word torment is! β
"Well, slow knife stabbing people is the most cruel!"
"By the way, promise me one thing."
"What's the matter, you say."
"If the time really comes, you and I will fall first."
"Huh? What do you mean? β
"You fell, I slowly lay down beside you, so that we will never be separated!"
"Got me?"
"Of course! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have come here to die! β
"Aren't all of you voluntary? What's wrong with me? β
"Yes, it's all voluntary. Remember when there were 8 girls for you to choose from? β
"You said before you go?"
"Well, at that time, the investigation team selected a total of 8 girls, and told us that they were specially matched for you, and maybe one day they could become the queen of 'Wangxing'."
"Hehe, you really want to be a queen!"
"I thought, I thought, I thought about the addiction of being a queen. Of course, there are also those who want to change the environment and the way of living, and some who want to do something meaningful in life, such as preserving the fire for human beings. β
"So, you're not bad for me."
"I'm not done yet! Since you are a 'queen', you must have an emperor, right? But no one wants to find an imbecile or a wreck!
So, our 8 girls have formed a tacit understanding, if this 'emperor' has an eye, we will fight to go, if there is no eye, we will draw lots! β
"The result?"
"The result? Didn't you see them all? As soon as I saw you, all the girls went crazy! β
"Am I so charismatic?"
"Not to mention the looks, with the temperament of special forces, everyone has become your little fan sister!"
"You're saying I don't look good?"
"You can't get a perfect score anyway!"
"Why?"
"I'm afraid you're proud! Hehehe......"
"What a talent! Don't be poor, hurry up and rest, and wait a minute! β
Zhen Huan lay on the ground, looked at the tired and staggered crowd, and continued: "The food is almost gone, right? What's next? β
Liri thought to himself, along the way, Zhen Huan has always been assisting himself in leading the team, and has completely entered the role of "queen", so he slowly diluted his vigilance against her and said, "How do you know?" β
"For such a long time, even if it is high-energy food, the box can't hold so much! And looking at the expression on your face every time you distribute food, I can guess seven or eight points. β
"The food wasn't much, but it was really there. The main problem now is not food, but marching with weights every day, everyone's physical fitness has reached the limit, and according to my experience with budui, it may be about to collapse! β
"Then why don't you take more time to rest?"
"It's already slow, and if it's any slower, you'll run out of food! So, I have to push as hard as I can! Take advantage of limited food and make the march as long as possible. β
"What about tactics? Isn't your budui the most tactical? Is there no other way to adjust? Like how many more boxes to throw away? β
"I've thought about this, the remaining 6 boxes are basically life-saving, and I can't afford to lose them!"
"Even if it's to save your life, there's a priority, right?"
Zhen Huan's words reminded him of the departure day, so he said, "That's right! Even if it is to save your life, there is a priority! You can say that again! β
The spirit of the day was lifted, and he quickly got up and began to weigh again, leaving 6 boxes-
Energy box, weapon box, book box, tool box, medical box, food box, how to choose?
Come to think of it, if it's important to save your life temporarily, bring a weapon box, a tool box, and a food box!
By the way, take out a little medicine to stop bleeding, anti-inflammatory, and anesthetic from the medical box and put it in the food box, and once again select the basic and vital books from the book box to take away.
How many books do you bring?
After thinking about it for a while, Liri felt that he should seek the opinions of intellectuals, so he called a meeting.
"We're almost at the limit of our fitness now, so I'm going to bury a few more boxes for the time being, and only bring three boxes that can save my life, but even so, I still have to bring a few books. I'd like to hear your opinions on what books to bring. β
After repeated deliberation, everyone finally selected several books, such as "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing", "Compendium of Materia Medica", "Four Books and Five Classics", "The Original of Geometry", "Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy", "Encyclopedia of Technological Inventions" and "Principles of Aesthetics".
At the end of the day, he asked, "Do you have any suggestions?" β
"Chief, bring a copy of the Classic of Mountains and Seas." Zhen Huan did not suggest bringing a book on psychology, but suggested bringing a book on mythology in the reckless era.
Everyone is a cultural person, and they still know a little about the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and they immediately remembered strange things such as the mountains suspended in the air, and they couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Shangguan Ting added: "Chief, is there a book on cultivating immortals?" I want real books, the kind of real books passed down by the ancients, not that kind of illusory novels, otherwise I will die if I don't succeed in cultivating immortals! β
Liri knew that Shangguan Ting was telling the truth, this planet was indeed mysterious and secretive, and they didn't know what strange things were waiting for them, and people would reach out to the mysterious power in fear, so they asked, "Who knows?" What books can cultivate immortals? β
Gongsun Liang said: "Chief, let's see if there are any Taoist books, I heard that the ancestor of our Huaxia tribe, the Yellow Emperor, when he was 100 years old, specially put down mundane things and went to Kongtong Mountain to ask a Taoist named Guangchengzi for the method of immortality."
Later, at the age of one hundred and twenty, the Yellow Emperor rode on the back of the dragon and ascended to heaven, and when he ascended, his concubines pulled his robe and followed, and more than 70 ministers also followed the Yellow Emperor to ascend to heaven on the dragon! β
Gongsun Liang said it vividly, everyone listened with relish, Shangguan Ting said: "Gongsun Liang, is there really such a thing?" Don't lie to me. β
Gongsun Liang said: "What am I lying to you for, there are books as proof, I remember what Guangchengzi Taoist said!" β
Shangguan Ting said: "What are you talking about? β
Gongsun Liang began to read in a frustrated manner: "The essence of the Tao, the most slender, the extreme of the Tao, faint and silent." Ignore and listen, hold the mind to be quiet, the form will be self-righteous, will be quiet and clear, no hard work, no shaking of your spirit, keep your mind calm, you can live forever......"
Zhen Huan was also very interested in cultivating immortals, and when he heard what Gongsun Liang said, it seemed that there was something really going on, and he interjected: "Gongsun Liang, what kind of book is this?" β
Gongsun Liang said: "I can't remember it either. β
Shangguan Ting scolded: "Wang Ba calf! β
Gongsun Liang said: "Tingting, don't be discouraged, in the future, we will settle down, turn on the computer, read book by book, and we will definitely find the book of cultivating immortals." β
Seeing that this matter was endless, he said, "Okay, okay, since I can't remember clearly, let's talk about this matter in the future!" β
Gongsun Liang said: "However, there is another book, maybe it will be helpful for cultivating immortals." β
Shangguan Ting and Zhen Huan said in unison: "What book?" β
Gongsun Liang said: "I Ching! β
"I Ching?!" The two spoke in unison.
Gongsun Liang said: "Yes, it is the Book of Changes, one of the three strange books handed down from ancient times. β
Shangguan Ting said: "The three strange books of ancient times? What are the other two? β
Gongsun Liang said: "We have already brought these three books, one is the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic", and the other is the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that the queen just said, among which the "Book of Changes" is the most mysterious, maybe you can understand the way to become an immortal from it!" β
Seeing Shangguan Ting on the left day, she continued to ask questions, worried that she would delay everyone too much time, so she hurriedly said: "Since we have brought all three books, let's leave quickly!" β
After selecting the books needed, Liri arranged for special forces to bury the other 3 boxes, and still asked everyone to swear not to leak them.
Then the task is simple -
4 special forces, plus Liri and Wu Wei, 6 people carried 3 boxes, and other men helped in the difficult key sections.
Dr. Jiang's injuries were much better, and he was barely able to walk on his own with a metal rod as a crutch.
Other men and women carry or carry their own children, and Zhen Huan is responsible for carrying Dr. Jiang's children.
Qin Tian's child, Long Wu, is in good physical condition and walks by himself.
Wu Wei's child, Long Er, was in charge of Qin Tian.
Qiu Yue herself was so tired that she let Feng Wu go by herself most of the time.
"Sister, why are you like this? Other people's families are carried by adults and children! "Feng Wu learned to complain at a young age.
"Miss, let's go if you can! Do you want to see my sister die in your hands! Qiu Yue is not used to her, and she only has half a life left.
"Sister, are you afraid of monsters?" Feng Wu asked abruptly, as if he was deliberately taking revenge on Qiu Yue.
"Feng Wu! Don't ask! Qiu Yue's face turned pale, the matter of the monster had long been embedded in her heart, and as long as she mentioned it lightly, the fear immediately burst out.
"Sister, haven't you watched "Journey to the West"? The situation here is similar to the situation in "Journey to the West", there must be monsters! β
The child's words were the most effective, and Qiu Yue shouted: "I told you not to talk nonsense!" "She wants to suppress her palpitations with anger.
And suddenlyβ
Feng Wu's face sank, his eyes widened, he stretched out his hand, and said, "Sister, look, what is this?!" β
