The two of them let the wind blow for a while, and a staircase extended down, and it seemed that there was a world below.

The simple staircase was only two feet wide, the angle of forty-five degrees was very steep, and there were handrails on both sides, but it was still easy to slip.

After more than ten meters, he suddenly opened up and entered an indoor. This room was carved into the wall of a deep cave, and the light poured down from the top of his head, and it was already faint by here, and the room was dark and unknown, which made Lou Lanfeng suddenly think of Lao Xue's corpse liquid fish pond!

Lou Lanfeng said to Meng Ying: "No wonder you are too lazy to listen to me tell me the story of the fish pond, I already knew it, I thought that this place had been blown up, and it was actually transformed into a room." ”

Meng Ying said: "The explosion cleaned up the toxic substances, and this place has been transformed several times to become our forward observation room. While listening to Lou Lanfeng, he turned on the flashlight.

Lou Lanfeng: "You hand me over to them to transform, and I will remember you." ”

After the renovation, the fish pond is only about 10 square meters, and there is a one-foot square window on the cave wall, and there is also an alloy mesh on it, which lets in some light and exchanges air with the room.

There are several devices hanging from the ground on the wall on one side, and no indicator lights are on, but when you get closer, you can hear a slight electric sound, and it seems that it has been working. I saw the cable along the equipment building, and it snaked into the wall.

Lou Lanfeng was surprised: "There is electricity here, how much does it cost?" ”

Meng Ying said: "Decades of development have only come to this point, and it is still early. Some things come at a cost. The alloy cover above your head is also electrified, the voltage is relatively low, and it works like a radar, monitoring if there's anything going out here. ”

Lou Lanfeng: "As far as I know, it doesn't seem to be of much use, there were shell people coming in and out here some time ago. ”

Meng Ying: "The role of this is similar to that of an outpost, in order to detect the entry and exit of most people, not to catch a few spies. There are several such imports and exports in the country, and we try to monitor them as much as possible, and the shell people are also well aware of this. ”

Lou Lanfeng: "No matter how good two countries are, it is impossible to be unguarded, this is normal, not to mention that they are not the same kind of people." You didn't even think to go down and investigate and get to know each other. ”

Meng Ying: "It's not so easy, people come to understand us, haven't you ever shot a gun?" We have also sent several investigation teams after synthesizing all the contact information, but the vast majority of people have not returned, and only one person named Su Ting has returned alive. ”

Lou Lanfeng was very surprised, no wonder the people in the ministry were afraid of her, it turned out that she was the only one who came back: "Since someone has come back, there is always a more or less investigation result, right?" ”

Meng Ying said, "You know very little, and you will be one of the humans who have the most contact with them. ”

Lou Lanfeng: "I know that there are two other European and American Phoenix people who will also be transformed. ”

Loulan Feng walked to the window and could feel the wind blowing down the deep hole, so he asked: "The wind here is so strong, it must be convection, did you find the exit at the other end of this hole?" ”

Meng Ying: "We have searched the vicinity and taken infrared photos with satellites, but we have not found an exit, which is also a very strange thing. ”

Lou Lanfeng listened to the whining wind outside and didn't speak again.

Meng Ying suddenly asked, "Have you heard of the Fermi Paradox?" ”

Lou Lanfeng: "I'm a liberal arts student. ”

Meng Ying then said directly: "Fermi is a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, seventy years ago he raised a question: the universe has existed for about 13 billion years, other galaxies are too far away for us to consider it, there are billions of planets with habitable potential in the galaxy alone, such a long time and such a huge number, there should have been intelligent life shuttling through the galaxy a long time ago, it stands to reason that there should be spaceships flying around in space, but where are they?" ”

"In contrast, human civilization has existed for less than 10,000 years, and the industrial revolution has flown into space for more than 200 years. This is really a difficult question to understand, is it really only human beings in the whole universe? ”

Lou Lanfeng: "If you want to say that, I also remember, I have also thought of this question, it turns out that such a powerful person has raised it so early." ”

Meng Ying continued: "The analysis conclusions of the scientists in the ministry based on our years of underground discoveries coincide with the latest theories of the US space agency, and it may be that intelligent life is widespread in the Milky Way, but most of them live in deep, dark underground or underground oceans, isolated from the rest of the universe. ”

"Underground cavities and oceans are probably common in the Milky Way. In fact, if we use our solar system as a reference, oceans are very common. Under the extremely cold surface shells of Jupiter's moons Ganymede, Ganymede, and Ganymede, as well as under the crust of Saturn's moon Enceladus, there are oceans of liquid water. And it is speculated that there are also subterranean oceans on other planets, including Pluto. The only planet known to have a liquid ocean on its surface is Earth. ”

"The subsurface and subsurface oceans provide a more stable environment than surface water bodies. As a result, celestial impacts and solar flares, nearby supernovae, what kind of orbit they orbit, whether there is a magnetosphere, whether the atmosphere is toxic or not, and so on, all become irrelevant. Such an environment may on average give life a longer time to evolve intelligence and sophistication. ”

Lou Lanfeng answered: "So we can draw a conclusion, on the surface of the earth, which is suitable for the existence of life, the possibility of the existence of underground intelligent life is probably tens of thousands of times higher than that of other planets, right?" ”

Meng Ying agreed: "Life on the surface of the earth has existed for hundreds of millions of years, during which it has experienced several large-scale extinctions. ”

Lou Lanfeng: "But it is also difficult for underground beings to develop the space transportation technology to leave their own planet, because it is already extremely difficult for them to reach the surface of their own planet. So it's quiet in space, and there's no aircraft shuttling back and forth. ”

Meng Ying said, "Yes. That's why the Shell people need to work with us. ”

Lou Lanfeng stood in front of the window and stopped talking, he could only hear the sound of the wind outside the window and his own breathing, the next challenge was unimaginable, his mood was not a simple fear that could be described, what kind of creature he was going to contact was the last thing he dared to think about, and the story of the corpse pond caused him a great psychological shadow.

Back on the ground, Lou Lanfeng finally asked, "Where am I waiting for them?" The small room just now? ”

Meng Ying: "That's right, I'll let you know in advance, and you'll be waiting in the room at that time." ”

At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark, and Lou Lanfeng looked at Hezhu a little embarrassed: "It's also delivered, it's not easy to go back now that the black light is blind." ”

Hezhu was still so calm: "I didn't plan to go back, I said I would wait for you to come back." ”

Lou Lanfeng shook his head: "If I go here for ten days and a half months, you will starve to death if you are not hungry." ”

He Zhu smiled: "If Brother Lou didn't bring me back from Xiangfeng Mountain, I'm still in that valley, what's the difference?" Ten days and a half months of starvation can't kill me. ”

Lou Lanfeng: "In the past, my face was like a mask all day long, and my skin was rough and rough, but now I can't bear it." ”

Kazu-ju smiled but didn't answer.

Lou Lanfeng knew that it was useless to talk too much, so she told Hezhu the password of the iron door and asked her to remember: "When I go, I can settle down in the room, and if I am thirsty, I can find the mountain spring by myself." ”

The mountain moon hung on the top of the mountain, and the two sat side by side on the low concrete wall, looking at the moon.

Lou Lanfeng said: "When I first saw you, you were standing on the cliff with your black hair fluttering, I thought you would open your mouth to the moon to absorb its essence." ”

When Hezhu heard this, he really opened his mouth to the moon, and immediately smiled and said, "I can't suck it." ”

Lou Lanfeng also smiled, and the two continued to look at the moon and stopped talking.

Ban Lou Lan Feng couldn't help but groan: "

I don't know in the mountains tonight

What a situation

I want to have a moon and a pine, too

There is a deeper stillness

I want to cling to the moonlight

A fresh breeze

Wake up the pine spring drunk. ”

Hezhu turned his head to look at him: "You did it?" ”

Lou Lanfeng shook his head and smiled: "Liberal arts students have this endorsement ability, this is made by the poet Xu Zhimo, I didn't think he was so powerful, it seems that he has lost his fame, and he only learned about his talent tonight." ”

Half an hour later, it was almost six o'clock, and Meng Ying contacted: "Go indoors and wait now, you will arrive at any time!" ”

Lou Lanfeng got up to say goodbye, told him to be careful again, and walked up to him and shook his hand: "Calm down!" ”

Less than ten minutes after going down to the room, the wind outside the window suddenly stopped completely and became extremely quiet!

This kind of moment is the most difficult, and proper distraction can help relieve tension, but Lou Lanfeng lacks such experience, and obviously shows that he is more than nervous. In fact, at this time, the intensity of the psychological impact had overshadowed the fear, and at the moment when the wind was still, he even had an urge to go to the window and look down!

Completely different from Lou Lanfeng's expectations, he did not wear a mask, thinking that he would not be able to see the other party, and was taken away in a completely blind state, the situation was just the opposite.

Their appearance was extremely sudden, like a picture, suddenly unfolding in front of him!

A foul smell also came to the face, and because there was no wind, the gas they brought almost completely surrounded Loulan Feng, the smell had obvious irritation, it was difficult to guarantee that it would not be poisoned after a long time, Loulan Feng held his breath!

There are no bubbles described by Lao Xue, they are more like a changing ball of light and shadow, Lou Lanfeng didn't see an obvious boundary, but he could still tell that it was three individuals!

The three lights and shadows were one in the front and two in the back, and the one in front slowly approached the window, and Lou Lanfeng instinctively took a step back!

Very suddenly, all thoughts dissipated from Lou Lanfeng's brain, as if the computer had turned off the screen! A cold and stiff feeling grabbed him, and he immediately lost the ability to move, and even his legs could no longer feel the strength of support!

The nightmarish feeling came suddenly, the brain lost control, countless pictures came one after another, Lou Lanfeng tried to regain his senses, but there was no power to help, and the willpower had completely disappeared!

He only lasted a few seconds, and finally his eyes went black!
