Chapter 175: Superfluous People

"Okay, I'm going to rest, you can sleep here today."

Su Ruyu got up, yawned, and walked to her lounge, leaving Lu An, who was a little stunned behind her.

"Hey, don't go, and then?"

Su Ruyu stopped, turned around and gave him a blank look, and said, "What then?" ”

"How are we going to get out?"

"Even if I tell you now, can you get out?"

Su Ruyu obviously didn't want to tell Lu An, so Lu An had no choice but to shake his head helplessly and stop asking.

After she left, Lu An lay on the mat in the living room, staring at the ceiling, and the surprise that Su Ruyu had just brought him kept echoing in his mind.

"Going out for a walk?"

How to get out? Where can you go when you get out? Is there really any way to fly out of this asteroid that is so remote that there are only two people?

Is it a spaceship? However, except for the main base of Base 9786 and its own monitoring post, there is an unobstructed view of the rest of this asteroid, where can a spacecraft be hidden?

But if it's not a spacecraft, what other way can you break away from the asteroid's gravity and fly yourself into space? Are two people really going to hike through space?

However, the vastness of space is not something that a human being who is one or two meters tall and can walk at a speed of five to ten kilometers per hour can challenge. The emptiness of space, which seems to be dotted with light and countless stars, is beyond the limits of human imagination, and people who have never drifted in space themselves cannot imagine the distance between the stars that are like dust in space.

You must know that the distance between the planets of the solar system takes several minutes to reach the speed of light, the speed of light, which is the limit speed of the universe of 300,000 kilometers per second. At present, the average speed of human travel in the universe is only 300,000 kilometers per hour, and the difference between the two is more than 3,600 times.

In addition, in the solar system, light basically moves in a straight line, and the curvature caused by gravity is basically negligible, and human space travel due to the existence of gravity, basically has to move along the parabola of gravity, although it can save power, but the distance is doubled, and the time taken is also doubled.

In other words, the distance traveled at the speed of light in a few minutes will cost tens of thousands of times the time for human aircraft.

As for human walking? Haha, even at a speed of ten kilometers per hour, walking 24 hours without sleep, it takes as many as 1,200 days to walk from the earth to the moon, a full three years.

Just walking a distance of more than one second, human beings will have to walk for three years, which is the greatest malice of the vast space for human beings.

All the stars in the solar system, including the sun itself, are just a speck of dust in this cosmic space, even the sun is just a slightly larger speck of dust, and humans are just a smaller negative entropy existence on the inconspicuous dust - the earth.

And how can a man not eat or drink? How can you walk without a point of borrowing and motivation in space? Even the most advanced space drifting suits can only last 24 hours.

Lu An stared at the ceiling, thinking about it, but he couldn't figure out how Su Ruyu could lead him away from the asteroid number 265.

Perhaps, she really has a spaceship?

Lu An frowned and looked deeper into the base, Su Ruyu's lounge door was closed, and the only possibility he could imagine was that this woman was hiding a spaceship somewhere on this planet.

So, where will she hide?

Lu An remembered the years he had spent in the monitoring post when he was extremely bored.

I wanted to be a spaceship! Is......

However, I don't know what happened to the monitoring post now, and I still have some things in the monitoring post! However, the most important brain has been destroyed in today's accident, and there is nothing to be nostalgic for in that monitoring post.

Speaking of which, this brain borrowed from the Moon Recruit Training Base was buried on this asteroid and will probably never go back.

"This kind of behavior of borrowing but not repaying is really not a good habit!"

Lu An turned sideways, rested his head on his arm, and muttered to himself.

However, after the sprain of his wrist is healed, do you have to go back to the monitoring post? Since Su Ruyu exposed the fact that the No. 9786 base was originally an "unmanned base" just now, Lu An has little interest in going back to the monitoring post.

There is no need for oneself, and going there will cause a power shortage at the normally functioning monitoring post. If you want to complete the task seriously, then you should honestly stay away from that monitoring post and do not interfere with the normal operation of that monitoring post; If you don't want to complete the task seriously, then why go back there?

But if you don't know how to go to the monitoring post, where can you go? You can't stay here at the main base all the time.

This is the place of this female military doctor, it is Su Ruyu's "territory" on this asteroid, if Lu An just came here, he would not have to go down, but the tacit understanding between the two at the beginning was that she was in the main base, he was at the monitoring post, and the well water of the two did not interfere with the river water.

Human beings are creatures with the concept of "territory", and a social structure that can operate stably must be a structure that can reasonably divide the "territory" of human beings. "Territory" is not only wealth, property, nor just personal privacy, etc., it is an umbrella term for all social attributes of human beings.

A person does not care about "territory", but from the beginning of two people, there must be this difference.

This distinction has penetrated deeply into all human behaviors from ancient times to the present, and people are divided into regions, races, countries, factions, and planets, and the origin point of all these distinctions is to produce a certain concept in the minds of human beings.

That idea is, I, you, him......

With me, there is us; With you, with you; With him, there are them......

How do people describe intimacy between people? It doesn't matter if you or I don't.

And the starting point of all this lies in the beginning of the concept of "me". There is only one man, and there is no me, you, or his; With a second person, there is a "you" who is independent of me; And the third person began to have him. No amount of people can escape, us, you, them.

The concept of "I" as an independent individual is the cornerstone of all modern civilizations.

Without the concept of "I", human beings cannot step out of the category of beasts, and will always be just animals full of animal nature; With me, you, and him, but without the territory of "me", without the territory of "you", and without the territory of "him", then human civilization will always be an ignorant primitive civilization.

An independent "me" can support a close-knit civilized society; The more independent the "I", the closer the connection between "we" becomes.

These things are the consensus of human civilization and society in the interstellar era for human beings who have experienced the great alliance wave, and after more than 400 years of baptism in the galaxy, they are self-evident tacit understanding between people. Although this tacit understanding is only a silent tacit understanding, it is fragile in the complex human nature and complex social network.

However, human beings are born in fragility, grow in fragility, and thrive in fragility. Creatures that are not fragile never want to rely on tools, and if they are not so fragile that once they rely on tools, they can no longer do without tools, and human beings may not have developed with the help of tools to this day.

For Lu An, to choose between a monitoring post that does not require his own and someone else's main base, then he would rather go to the monitoring post and squat on the ground every day to draw circles.

"However, when I think about it, I seem to have become redundant in an instant!"

Lu An himself hated himself for being so redundant.

Perhaps, I shouldn't have come to this asteroid in the first place, so I don't say anything about being isolated from the world, and I also invade other people's lives and break the peace of others, which is a bit annoying.

However, this is not what Lu An wants to come, if he wishes, he will not choose to come to this asteroid hundreds of millions of kilometers away from his home, and he will not even choose to leave the earth to go to the moon, after all, he does not want to leave his sister Anna at all.

What is Anna doing now? She should have recovered now, and she must be happily imagining her future life, because Lu An at this time is exactly what she imagined.

When the rest of a person's life is stretched from one or two years to twenty or thirty years, forty or fifty years, and expands dozens of times, that kind of huge sense of happiness cannot be felt by people who do not have a deep understanding.

Lu An never thought about what happened after Anna was twenty years old, and all his knowledge of his life in the past, as if he accompanied his sister Anna, came to an abrupt end after she was twenty years old.

Now this kind of happiness stretched by life is like a sprout in the heart that has broken through the ground, which is a sign of the revival of all things in spring, and the awakening of the great joy of life in the body.

"Well, can you really go out for a walk? If you can run to a place with an Internet, maybe you don't have to wait for the moment when the broken brain is repaired, and you don't have to worry about praying for luck. ”

Lu An rolled over again and stared at the ceiling.

"I hope this woman doesn't deceive herself, she doesn't look like she's drunk, she shouldn't talk nonsense!"

The bright lights in the hall were a little dazzling, which made Lu An, who was slightly excited, even more unable to sleep, so he simply got up and turned off all the lights, plunging the hall into darkness.

In the dark hall, only the wide open door of the warehouse revealed some faint light, and a few faint lights scattered from the depths of the base, which made Lu An, who was lying on the cushion a little reassured.

Perhaps, Lu An will no longer have to worry about the sudden alarm in the dark in the future, no longer have to have a "tick-click" sound in the dark night to wake him up, no longer have to let himself like to sleep in the living room and on the sofa even if he is uncomfortable, and no longer have to be sensitive to the slightest wind and grass to wake him up.

For Lu An, the already beautiful dark night, after removing the trace of black fear, is gentle and tolerant to the point of intoxication, which can make him infinitely at ease and happy.
