Chapter 118: A Glimmer of Life
Zheng Haotian came out of Fang Hongrui and saw Cao Chi coming to him in a hurry!
"What's wrong?" Zheng Haotian was shocked, could it be that Junan called again?
"Chief of Staff, we were in a hidden place in the back mountain just now, and we found that someone wanted to open a back door for us, but there was no one at the scene! Later, I led people to chase along the traces, and as a result, I caught a number of stonemasons, and when I asked, it was actually the people from Junan who caught them and let them cut through the mountain wall, so that they could sneak attack us from behind! Cao Chi asked, "What to do with these stonemasons, the division commander will let you decide!" ”
Zheng Haotian thought for a while, "Let's go, take me to see!" ”
The two of them went out of the gate and began to go up the mountain, circled around the mountain for half a circle, and really found a cave that had been carved open in the back mountain! In front of the cave, some soldiers are guarding some stonemasons.
Zheng Haotian looked up and down, left and right, around the cave for a long time, and was very happy: "Wonderful! It's wonderful! ”
It turns out that this cave is difficult to see from the outside, it is inside a stone crevice in a Tianshan boulder, and if you don't look carefully from the front, you can't see it at all!
"How did you find out?" Zheng Haotian admired Cao Chi's observation.
"I'm in charge of patrolling this area today!" Cao Chi said honestly. Now there is a platoon commander and three squad leaders who come out to patrol the base every day, and the other sentry posts are counted separately.
"That kid may have dropped something here, and I just happened to find it! I saw that he was sneaky, so I followed him and found the place. Cao Chi pointed to a young stonemason and said.
Zheng Haotian walked over with a smile.
"Leader, this is not what we meant, it was those who were soldiers before, if they had to arrest us, let us dig the mountain, if we don't dig, we will kill us, leader, we are also forced!" The stonemasons seemed to be kind-hearted, and pleaded one after another!
"Why should I kill you?" Zheng Haotian smiled, "I'm here to thank you!" ”
As soon as he said this, everyone present was stunned, who did he thank for? Thanks to the people who dug their nests?
"Our base just lacks a back door, this place you chose is really good, hidden and safe! Okay, don't be afraid, come back to the base with us, and when I have someone design the back door, you still need to continue to work on it! ”
In this way, Zheng Haotian took these people back to the base, went directly to the science and technology building, and found Chang Yingguang, who was currently in charge of coordinating these scientists, and two other middle-aged people.
"Professor Chang, we want to make a back door in the back mountain, and we want to ask the experts in our science and technology building to design it, I don't know if it's okay?" Haotian said straight to the point.
"What's so hard about that?" Chang Yingguang is now working in the communication room, "We have geological expert Wang Miao, exploration expert Dou Jia, and engineering expert Bao Guangqi ....... ”
"Alright, alright!" Zheng Haotian waved his hand again and again, "I'm not familiar with these experts yet, and I just got a familiar face, so Professor Chang, you can coordinate and arrange it!" Then he pointed to the stonemason outside, "The staff are already in place, and you can decide the specific arrangements for the project, can you?" ”
Chang Yingguang looked at the stonemasons outside and nodded, "No problem, since you have joined our Silver Dawn, these are all obligatory things!" ”
Zheng Haotian nodded, turned around and said to the stonemasons at the door: "Everyone, you all live around here, of course you know, our base has never disturbed the people, so this time you do a good job, after completion, the base will definitely give you some rewards!" ”
"What reward?" A bold stonemason asked.
Haotian smiled mysteriously, "I heard that the residents in the neighborhood want to live in the neighborhood in their dreams, maybe I can arrange for you to bring your families to realize this dream!" ”
"Really!" As soon as these words were spoken, the stonemasons, who were already very depressed, suddenly came to their senses and demanded to start work immediately!
"However, this matter must be kept secret, whoever leaks it out, all of you will lose this opportunity to come in!" Haotian finally warned them with a straight face.
The stonemasons swore to the sky that they would never leak it out, Zheng Haotian nodded and left satisfied.
Although Zheng Haotian doesn't care too much about the leakage of the back door, after all, there must be defenses there, and this place is so small, sooner or later the matter of the back door will spread, but if fewer people know, fewer people will know.
……
After eating at noon, the three mercenary groups and four buses were not idle, Zheng Haotian arranged for them to go to Longshan Town to pick up Miao Xin, and it was about eleven o'clock in the evening that the mercenary group came back!
Although it was late at night, all the cadres in the base still came to the gate to welcome Miao Xin!
When Miao Xin saw Zhang Xiaoguang, he was very moved! Because on the way here, Qin Qi had already told Miao Xin everything that had happened, so Miao Xin knew that Zhang Xiaoguang came to greet him with an injury!
Meals have already been prepared in the cafeteria, and everyone is happy!
……
The next day, as soon as everyone got up, they got good news, Xiao Wenyao and Wang Zixue, two scientists, woke up!!
This is really good news for Zhang Xiaoguang, Gao Zhenshan and Zheng Haotian, because these three people are going back to Weihai today!
When Xiaoguang and other backbones from the base rushed to the wards of the two scientists, the two scientists had already come out of the nutrition cabin. Although it is a thorough wound, the wound is small, coupled with timely treatment and advanced technology, it has basically healed.
The hospital specially arranged a double ward for the two scientists, and many people were talking with each other in the ward, but the atmosphere was not good, to be exact, the atmosphere was very depressing!
"What's wrong?" Xiaoguang felt something was wrong when he entered the door, "What's going on?" ”
Everyone looked at Xiaoguang and didn't speak.
"Is there anything that is not well taken care of in the base, you can bring it up, and I will let them correct it!" Zheng Haotian said sincerely.
"Yes, if you have anything to say, everyone will be a family in the future, don't have any worries!" Gao Zhenshan also persuaded.
"Well...... this matter has nothing to do with the base." Mathematician Su Yixiu helped his thick glasses.
"What's going on here? If there are any difficulties, we can say it, let's solve it together! Village Chief Xiao said.
"I'm afraid, you can't solve it!" The skinny prince professor spoke.
"I know, is it related to the statement that Jia Ai** asked you to make!" Gao Zhenshan has always felt that there must be a big secret in this matter!
Wang Zixue nodded.
"What the hell is going on?" Zheng Haotian also felt the seriousness of the matter, "Everyone, please tell me the truth, I believe that as long as we are united, there will be no flame mountain that cannot be crossed!" ”
"I'll tell you." Professor Chang Yingguang stood up, "Everyone will know about this sooner or later, and if you know sooner, you may be able to come up with some good solutions." ”
Everyone looked at Chang Yingguang quietly.
"Political commissar, you know, Jia Aimin asked these two professors to issue a joint statement, the content of the statement is actually very simple, that is, to tell everyone that in two years, the earth can resume farming and grazing, as long as you persist in the past two years, everything will return to normal." Chang Yingguang said slowly: "However, for us scientists, we will not publish a statement without experiments or demonstrations, so our two experts told Jia Aimin to go back to experiment and research first."
However, after several months of research, it was found that in two years, the sunlight will indeed be much stronger than it is now, and the daylight hours will basically return to normal, but the plants ...... But they can't reproduce! ”
As soon as he said this, the whole room was shocked!
"What? What does it mean that a plant cannot reproduce? Zhang Xiaoguang thought he had misunderstood.
"I'll tell you." Professor Wang Zixue sat up slowly, "After months of experiments between the two of us, we found that the radiation dust that spread all over the space has killed the germs of all plant seeds in a few months!" So, these seeds will never germinate! And, because fallout will be around for a long time, even if there are good seeds now, the seeds they will produce later will face the same fate! In other words, there is no way out for us humans! When the current stock of food is eaten, everyone will be in danger of starvation! ”
The explanation was so thorough and scary that everyone in the room turned pale!
This is the real end of the world! The plants at the bottom of the food chain are gone, not to mention animal husbandry!
"Can you be sure about this, two?" Zheng Haotian stared at Xiao Wenyao and Wang Zixue.
Wang Zixue smiled and said: "Xiao Wenyao is the leader of our national physics community, I don't think anyone can deny this, and I, in the biology community, it is estimated that no one will question ......." ”
"I have doubts!" Before Wang Zixue's voice fell, a soft voice came out from behind the crowd, and everyone looked back and saw that it was Chu Yiyi.
"I have doubts, too." Another weak voice also remembered later, and when you look at it again, it was Lei Tong's sister, who was holding two bowls of egg noodles. It turned out that she had just arrived last night and was assigned to work in the cafeteria, and it seemed that she was delivering noodles.
"Who are you?" Wang Zixue asked Chu Yiyi first.
"I am the person in charge of biological research and some animal rescue work in the base, my name is Chu Yiyi." Chu Yiyi stepped forward generously, "Professor Wang, I am just a junior in the field of biology, and I can't compare with you, but I believe that life will always find its own way out, the more desperate the situation, the more powerful the power of life can be stimulated, and new creatures and plants will definitely appear in this world!" ”
Wang Zixue looked at Chu Yiyi deeply, "Little girl, I agree with what you said, life will always find a way out, but it is difficult for us humans to wait until that time." Moreover, there is now a creature adapted to this world, and that is cockroaches. Cockroaches are almost unaffected by any nuclear radiation, but we humans can't survive ten, twenty, or even a hundred years by eating cockroaches! ”
Listening to Wang Zixue's words, Chu Yiyi wanted to refute, but there was no reason to refute!
"That little girl who delivers noodles, what do you have to question?" The younger sister of the prince's learned Lei Tong.
Lei Tong's sister had a weak voice, but her personality was not weak, she put the noodles on the table and said to Professor Wang Zixue: "Let me say, the most unreliable thing is you experts!" ”
As soon as he said this, everyone had a black line on their faces! This little girl is too rude!
"I just heard outside, what kind of experiments and research are you going to do, and after a few months, you have come to the conclusion that no plant can grow and reproduce! However, in our Junan Da Liujiayuehe Village, there is an old man who has already cultivated mushrooms that can grow and reproduce! Tell me that the old men who farm are better than you experts! ”
As soon as the girl finished speaking, the whole room fell silent, staring at her with wide eyes!
The little girl looked left and right, a little scared, "What are you doing?" ”
The prince stood up with a sigh of relief, "Little girl, are you telling the truth?" You know, this is a major event related to the survival of the entire human race! ”
"Yes, you've seen the mushroom with your own eyes!" Zheng Haotian also asked with wide eyes.
"Of course, I also drank a bowl, I don't believe you can ask that black bear!" The girl said aggrievedly.
"What black bear?" Everyone was stunned.
"It's the one who carried me back from Junan!"
"Cao Chi!" Gao Zhenshan slapped his thigh, "He also knows?" ”
"I don't know, he almost ate everyone's pot, but the mushrooms are really delicious!" The little girl tilted her head and savored.
