Cheng Ming was cooking in the kitchen, listening to the laughter of the two little guys outside, as if he had returned to before the catastrophe.

"It would be nice if Cher was still around." Cheng Ming sighed and continued the work in hand.

After a while, lunch was ready, although the sun could not be seen here, but Cheng Ming looked at his watch just now and estimated the time, it should be noon the next day.

Cheng Ming walked out of the kitchen with the pot, and found that the two little guys at this time were already tired of playing, and they fell asleep leaning against each other in the corner.

Cheng Ming put the pot on the ground and gently patted the two little guys.

"Xiaofan, Ke'er, get up and eat."

Lin Fan opened his eyes first, smelled the fragrance of food and immediately came to his senses, while Ke'er was still asleep and did not wake up, Cheng Ming had no choice but to pick up Ke'er, scratched Ke'er's itchy flesh, and Ke'er, who was tickled, reluctantly opened his eyes and said dissatisfied.

"Dad, I'm sleepy, you let me sleep again."

"Then Kerr doesn't eat delicious? Then you can sleep. Cheng Ming said with a smile, and at the same time scooped a small spoonful of porridge with a spoon and shook it back and forth in front of Ke'er's nose.

Hearing Cheng Ming's words and smelling the aroma of porridge again, Ke'er immediately opened her eyes.

"It smells so good, Dad, what is this?" Ke'er asked hurriedly.

This stopped Cheng Ming, although there was a lot of food in the food pantry, but most of it was canned, so Cheng Ming mixed canned meat and canned vegetables, and put some rice to cook a pot of chowder porridge.

This is also because they haven't eaten meat for a long time, so they are afraid that eating canned meat directly will cause gastrointestinal discomfort to the two little guys, so they decided to do it, as for the name, Cheng Ming thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with a good name, so he said.

"This is chowder, get up and eat some of it, and go to sleep after eating."

Cheng Ming put Ke'er out of his arms, and during the time he woke up Ke'er, Lin Fan had already gone to the kitchen to bring dishes and chopsticks, and filled a bowl for everyone, and he himself was holding a bowl of hot air at this time, wanting the porridge to cool down quickly.

The three of them ate a lot of food, because there was no pressure of food, Cheng Ming ate three bowls to his heart's content, and finally ate the rest of the bottom of the pot, and the two little guys also ate a lot, and they were lying on the ground at this time burping.

After eating, Lin Fan took the initiative to take the pot to the kitchen to wash, while Cheng Ming and Ke'er chose a relatively clean room to clean up, and at the same time took the bed from the utility room and spread the new futon on the bed.

After cleaning up these, Lin Fan also finished washing the pots and bowls and came to the room.

Cheng Ming asked the two children to take off their clothes and go to bed, and the two little ones shouted vigorously as soon as they got into the quilt.

"Dad, this quilt is so comfortable, it's so warm."

"Yes, uncle, it's really comfortable, it's so soft."

······

The two little guys chattered non-stop, Cheng Ming just looked at the two little guys with a smile on his face, and his heart was also full of satisfaction, in this era, temporary comfort is really satisfying.

Cheng Ming saw that the two little guys were asleep, so he walked out of the room, closed the door that they had hidden when they came in, and turned off the lights in the hall before returning to the room where the two little guys slept.

Cheng Ming returned to the room, sat in front of the table against the wall in the center of the room, opened the diary that Lin Fan found before, and looked at it, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.

It turned out that two years before the catastrophe struck, that is, in 2018, there was a small spaceship that landed on the earth, it traveled around the world, leaving a few unknown gems and a piece of information that we could not understand for each country and left, at that time the heads of state were quite shocked, so the countries organized the most elite scientific research teams to begin to decipher this message.

However, after nearly half a year, the countries have not completely deciphered it, but only vaguely obtained a few words that make the leaders of various countries very restless, "destruction" and "killing".

In the case that the governments of various countries have made no progress in deciphering the information, they have set their eyes on the gems left by the spacecraft, and initially determined that these gems do not belong to any material known to the earth, but these gems have a particularly huge amount of radiant energy, and this conclusion makes countries unable to sit still, and hurriedly relocate scientific research institutions to relatively inhospitable areas, such as deserts and Gobi.

At that time, the Chinese government obtained a total of 18 gems, and the scientists believed that the uncertainties of these gems were to be studied together, and if there was any accident, the consequences of relying on the huge radiation energy of these gems would be immeasurable, so after discussion, they decided to set up 19 research institutes in different places, 18 of which studied the 18 gems, and the other was to continue to decipher the information.

And this research institute is one of the 18 gems that are studied, as for why he was established here, and not in the desert only a few hundred kilometers away from here, there is no detailed record, but there is a vague sentence "At that time, the Taoist power Yuan Yangzi determined the location of the institute through astrological reasoning." ”

The research institute here has failed to come up with a true result through 1 and a half years of research, but it was vaguely found that this gem seems to have a trace of life-like characteristics, which is still a researcher inadvertently cut his finger during the experiment, a drop of blood fell on the gem, the gem began to wriggle, and actually devoured the blood, and then returned to its original state, but just when the scientists were preparing to do experiments in this area, the catastrophe came, the experiment was shelved, and all personnel were evacuated urgently, As for the whereabouts of that gem, there is no record.

As for the electricity here, it was discovered that the gem would always emit a huge amount of radiant energy, so the scientists made a conversion device that converted this energy into electricity, which could completely sustain the power demand of the entire laboratory, which may be the only thing they succeeded in researching.

After reading the diary, Cheng Ming smiled bitterly in his heart, this is too mysterious, what is that gem, why would aliens leave it to governments, and why did the catastrophe come two years after leaving it. What's the connection, Cheng Ming was at a loss, he was just an ordinary person, and he really couldn't answer these questions.

Wait, the electricity here is supplied by that gem, and there is still electricity now, which shows ······ Cheng Ming suddenly thought of a very critical question, hurriedly took the diary, rushed out of the room, and came to the gem storage place recorded in the diary - the innermost part of the laboratory, a transparent crystal cabinet inlaid on the wall.
