Chapter 114: Time Traveler
948.6 billion kilometers is a huge number. Even at the speed of light, it would take more than 30 days to complete this journey. Before Wei Feng completed this journey, the long-distance voyage record set by human civilization was only 50 billion kilometers, and Wei Feng has now increased this record by nearly 20 times.
In order to set this record, Wei Feng slept for ten years.
This should be an exciting thing, but Wei Feng didn't have an excited reaction, but sighed full of loneliness: "Oh, I've sailed almost a trillion kilometers......"
One trillion kilometers has been completed, and almost one-forty-second of the entire one-way journey has been completed. And this ...... It's just going to the closest star to the Sun.
Wei Feng didn't know how to describe the feeling. Perhaps it is an exciting event for an ant to crawl a distance of 100 meters, but what if the ant has the mind and vision of a human?
After resting for a while, Wei Feng felt that his head and body had recovered a little, so he walked out of the hibernation room. Ye Luo had already manipulated the food cart robot to deliver Wei Feng's breakfast - although the concept of day and night had long been absent from the Star Sea spaceship, Wei Feng was still used to arranging his life according to the routine on the earth. It's eight o'clock in the morning, and of course it's breakfast.
Breakfast was a very light rice porridge, and there was only one bowl - Wei Feng, who had just woken up from hibernation, was not suitable for eating too much, which required Wei Feng's stomach to gradually adapt to recover. Of course, Wei Feng didn't feel hungry at this moment.
After eating this breakfast casually, Wei Feng rested for a while, and then began to carry out restorative exercises under Ye Luo's arrangement. During this period of time, all of Wei Feng's behaviors, all routines, and diets will be strictly controlled by Ye Luo. How much sleep you get each day. How long to exercise, how much to eat, and what to eat are all arranged by Ye Luo. Because only in this way can Wei Feng's body recover in two months and prepare for the next hibernation.
The future is very boring. If there are no accidents, Wei Feng's life will continue this pattern, constantly hibernate and then keep waking up, continue to carry out recovery training and then repair the entire spaceship and help Ye Luo eliminate the bugs accumulated during operation, occasionally perform special tasks teleported from the earth and then hibernate, until Wei Feng can reach his destination after more than forty cycles.
Wei Feng rested for two days before regaining a little energy. At this moment, Wei Feng still looks sick, but he can probably act like a normal person. So Wei Feng followed Ye Luo's guidance, and referred to the maintenance manual and the maintenance suggestions transmitted from the earth, and began to repair or replace the faulty modules in the spaceship.
These damaged areas are less important. Therefore, after discovering that they were malfunctioning, Ye Luo did not wake up Wei Feng, but delayed until Wei Feng woke up normally before notifying Wei Feng to replace them. But Ye Luo was not idle during that time. After discovering that those parts were damaged, Ye Luo had already transmitted the damage information of the relevant parts back to the earth, and then the experts on the earth gave repair suggestions, and now Weifeng can repair these things in an orderly manner.
The round-trip communication from the Xinghai spacecraft to Earth can take anywhere from a dozen days to two months. However, all this process happened while Wei Feng was sleeping, so Wei Feng didn't need to wait.
It took Weifeng three days to repair all the faulty parts, and then it took another five days to eliminate the bugs accumulated during the operation of the leaves, and the remaining more than a month and a half was completely idle.
Astronautics is a boring thing. Wei Feng was locked in this cylinder container like a guinea pig, except to stay here. The rest is not going anywhere. Long-term loneliness and boredom can easily drive people crazy, and although Wei Feng's spirit has been tenacious in the past few decades of training, this feeling is not comfortable after all. Compared with this kind of boredom, Wei Feng would rather go to the hibernation cabin to sleep for more than ten years. But reason told Wei Feng that it was not okay. If you go to hibernation before your body is fully healthy, wait for the next time you wake up. Weifeng is likely to become disabled and unable to move.
At this time, Wei Feng remembered that there was still a notice sent to him from the Earth side. Because the distance between the Xinghai spacecraft and the Earth side is too long, and the communication delay is too long, Wei Feng has great autonomy over the Xinghai spacecraft, and the Earth side generally does not interfere with these things. Even if there is something, it is generally sent directly to Ye Luo, and then Ye Luo will manipulate it. At most, I just add a blessing to myself in passing. In this case, then, this notice sent directly to yourself seems a little unusual.
Wei Feng was a little annoyed that he had forgotten about this matter before, but at the same time, he remembered that Ye Luo did not urge him to check the letter, which showed that there was nothing important in this notice, so his mood relaxed again.
After notifying Ye Luo, Ye Luo sent the notice directly to Wei Feng's personal computer. Before checking this notice, Wei Feng first took a look at the payment and found that it was written by Chu Hai to himself, and his heart was a little warm.
For Wei Feng, there are more than 200 billion people in the entire human civilization, and the only one who can be regarded as a friend is ...... Probably only Chu Hai is alone.
"Wei Feng, hello, I'm Chu Hai."
"By the time reckoning, you're probably about to wake up from hibernation. By the time you wake up, the Star Ocean spacecraft has probably reached a position of thirty-seven light days from Earth, which means that it will take thirty-seven days for you to receive a signal from me. In order not to miss your waking period, I deliberately woke up from hibernation two months before you and wrote you this letter. ”
"First of all, I want to tell you a piece of good news, uh, maybe not good news, in short, everything on the ground end of the Lonely Island Project, including the eight giant antennas, everything is working normally, we people - that guy Rose gave us a group of people the name of Time Traveler - we time travelers are also very good, according to the physical data about you sent back by Ye Luo, you will probably be very good, here, first of all, I would like to congratulate you and all of us."
"How do you feel about the name Time Traveler? We are all people who have been abandoned by the times, we do not belong to any era, we are on a journey about time...... By the time we have finished this time journey, the world has long been in flux, but we will not be alone, because on the earth, there are still forty-seven time travelers who belong to the same era as you waiting for your return. I am proud that our collective has lasted for millennia. ”
"I'm sure you feel the same way I do, and being a time traveler isn't a good experience. Reality requires us to stand in a detached position to look at everything in this world, even the most ordinary for ordinary people, such as falling in love with such a thing as being out of reach for us - think about it, if we have a lover, the last time we saw her, she was still a young girl, the second time we saw her, she became a graceful mature woman, the third time we saw her, she had already entered middle age, at most the tenth meeting, she was already dying. For us, it was only ten times to meet, but for them, it was the whole of life. ”
"My friend, I have to say that this is the common sorrow of our time travelers. But I don't want us to just throw away our lives. We can't have normal human ways, but we can have our own ways. After the deliberation of the forty-seven of us Time Travelers who remained on Earth, we have made a decision that each Time Traveler will use our eyes and hands to record all the things that are worth recording in the world while they are awake, in addition to their daily work. The age of ordinary people is too short, but we are different, we have a thousand years of life, we can stand on a detached position, with cold eyes and the identity of witnesses to record the vicissitudes of life in the past thousand years. I guess that's going to be interesting, right? ”
"Of course, we won't forget you in space, Weifeng, you are also a member of our Time Traveler group, and the most indispensable. Whenever something important happens in this world, we will send it to you, so that even if you are in space, you can experience these things like us. ”
"Alright, that's it, Wei Feng, our mutual friend, we will always be waiting on Earth for your return."
At the end of the letter is a long list. Wei Feng counted, and there were exactly forty-seven, one was not much, and one was not many.
Wei Feng put down the computer, stood up in the control cabin, looked at the dark starry sky outside the window, and did not speak for a long time.
After a long time, Wei Feng opened his mouth: "Ye Luo, I want to go outside the spaceship for a while, is it okay?" ”
"Absolutely." Ye Luo replied, "Please wait, give me fifteen minutes, and I will prepare all the equipment you need to walk out of the cabin for you." ”
"Okay, thank you." Wei Feng replied. (To be continued......)
PS: By the way, from now on, the name of this volume has been officially changed from "Star Voyage" to "Time Traveler", and the rainbow feels that compared to the original name, Time Traveler is more in line with the theme of this volume.
