The origin of life is synthesized with chemical energy, and the genetic spiral blocks the heavens.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The blue-haired girl lay bored on the table, her ruby eyes reflecting the monitor of the electron microscope in front of her, and the hum of the instrument echoing through the room......

"It's so boring...... Xinglan turned back lazily, "Xiao Cheng Xiao Cheng, how long do you have to wait for packing?" ”

“…… Wait patiently. Xiao Cheng stood in front of a pool of water tens of meters long. The large pool is divided into many different colored cells by a semi-permeable membrane, which is the color difference caused by the multiplication of different bacteria in the nutrient solution.

Most of the nutrient solution is gelatinous and semi-liquid due to the addition of some lipids, and the robot on the side is using the pipes at the bottom of each small cell to pump the culture of different strains into a special box and encapsulate.

"That's true, but we've been waiting here for a long time......" Probably because the mechanical body is directly controlled by the built-in central computer, Xinglan didn't feel those special signals that needed the brain to feedback, and the body's ability to feel was more like a stimulus of different currents to her, "Patience has run out!" ”

Xiao Cheng looked back at the complaining girl: "...... Anyway, you used to reassemble asteroids for tens of millions of years, why can't you even wait for a few hours now...... Burst! What are you doing? ”

"Hmph~ It's fun to do this." Xinglan fiddled with the microinjection device on the table, looked at the small bacteria displayed on the screen, and mischievously poked and poked with a microinjection needle......

The poor little bacteria probably sensed the injection needle chasing after it through the fluctuation of the water flow, and shook its flagella all over the screen like a child afraid of the needle, but unfortunately it couldn't escape that small area no matter how much it jumped......

"Okay, got you!" Xinglan shouted excitedly, and before Xiao Cheng could stop it, she poked the small bacteria with the miniature injection needle, and then ......

"Huh?" Xinglan took a step back in fright, "Split...... Cracked? ”

“…… Forget it, it's your first time, and it's inevitable. Xiao Cheng rubbed his temples gently, his face, which was almost bloodless, turned pale again, and after expressing his silence in his heart for the small bacterium that was cut in half by Xing Lan's excessive force, he did not hesitate to pull a certain culprit away from the experimental table.

"Hey! Are you underestimating me? Xing Lan, who was stared at by someone with vigilant eyes, instantly exploded, "After being a little proficient, with my computing power, the level of operation will definitely far surpass yours!" ”

"Yes, yes......" While perfunctory, Xiao Cheng was still sorting out the box in his hand, "Do you know how much effort it took me to get this batch of microbial ......"

"That's right, what are the specific varieties of microorganisms to be placed this time?" Xinglan tilted her head cutely, looking at the boxes with interest.

"The main thing is to synthesize bacteria directly from the chemical energy that can live with heat, water and chemicals, but there are also a small number of other unicellular organisms or even multicellular." Xiao Cheng lily closed the box, "Although the atmosphere of Lanxing naturally contains a lot of oxygen, there are too many toxic components, and conventional plant cells and animal cells cannot reproduce in large quantities. So chemosynthetic bacteria, which rely directly on chemicals to survive, are a good choice to deal with all that bad stuff like hydrogen sulfide......"

Xing Lan took a sealed box, and the invisible signal in the air rotated into an observation device, she watched the cells inside move slowly, and laughed softly: "In this way, Lan Xing's life evolution can officially begin, the current signal pro does not have the ability to manipulate gene molecules, and it is still fast to rely on machines to carry out transgenic operations." ”

"In fact, it also saves a lot of troublesome steps." Xiao Cheng patted the pool, "If it's in the original home planet, you still need genetic safety testing or something, but Lan Xing doesn't have any native species to harm these little guys anyway." As long as the initial number is large enough, even if my transformation is still flawed, it will slowly evolve and improve. ”

"But it does save a lot of effort." Xinglan narrowed her eyes slightly, "These cells with perfect DNA and nuclei are not really comparable to the original life. ”

"And RNA." Xiao Cheng added, "There are cells with some RNA as genetic material...... It reminds me of a confession I once heard, where a guy said to a girl, 'I'd rather do RNA just to have you.'" 'What the hell ......"

Xinglan blinked: "Is that what you mean?" Just to have you, it's pretty bad. ”

"But the key is ...... later," Xiao Cheng smiled dumbly, "The girl replied, 'It's a pity that RNA is destined to be a single stranded (love)'......"

“…… What a sad story. ”

"Forget it, it doesn't matter much to us anyway." Xiao Cheng suddenly said with some embarrassment, "Well, I have set a hidden gene in the engineered fungus, and after the environment is about right, they will be oriented towards humans...... That is, the evolution of the intelligent race where I belong......"

Is that really the case...... The race has been destroyed, so you want it to be represented? Xinglan thought so, but didn't say it, anyway, she just wanted an intelligent race, and besides, that race had almost been destroyed, so it didn't matter to her, so ......

"It's okay~" Under Xiao Cheng's surprised gaze, Xing Lan smiled and nodded, "Even if this is Xiao Cheng's reward for helping, we don't care about this very much anyway." ”

"You're really indifferent, but thank you...... Ahem! Xing Lan's simple agreement was obviously unexpected, Xiao Cheng stood up gratefully, and suddenly stumbled, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth again.

"Xiao Cheng! Xiao Cheng, what's wrong with you? Seeing that Xiao Cheng was halfway through speaking, his body suddenly tilted, and blood continued to spill from his mouth, Xing Lan was taken aback, and hurriedly stepped forward to support him, "Hold on, I'll send you to the medical room!" ”

"No need...... Xiao Cheng calmed down a little, gasped violently, and showed a helpless wry smile, "It's useless, in fact, it's not a sick ......"

"What? Not a disease? Xinglan looked at Xiao Cheng in a daze, indicating that she didn't understand......

"In a sense, it's really not a disease...... even though the gravity on the corpse is much smaller than that of the planet, Xiao Cheng still took a lot of effort to sit back on the chair, wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face was terrifyingly white, and his work clothes were stained with red spots, "This should be regarded as normal body function aging." ”

"Aging of bodily functions?" Xinglan stretched out her finger and carefully pressed it on Xiao Cheng's hand, feeling the texture of her skin by the pressure sensor of her fingertips, "But Xiao Cheng, aren't you only in your thirties?" Don't...... Humans can only live for more than thirty years? ”

"Poof! …… Ahem! Shocked again by Xinglan's natural stupidity, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but cough violently again, "How can a human being run out of life after living for more than thirty years, hey!" Are you going to let me die prematurely because of the intense stimulus? ”

"Huh...... Sorry woo...... But what's going on? ”

"It's fine." Xiao Cheng stretched out his hand and patted Xing Lan's head comfortingly, "Actually, this is also normal......

"Huh?" The girl tilted her head to look at someone who was about the same height as her when they sat down.

"I, I've been naughty since I was a child, and I don't want to study hard......" Xiao Cheng looked up at the light on the ceiling, as if he saw a long past, "At that time, I really didn't have my own goals for anything, I had nothing to do all day long, I was running around, and I didn't know what I should do in the future...... Until that day, I saw a report on the news about the Salbins Shining Star incident. ”

"The Salbins Sparkling Star Incident?" Xinglan's heart moved.

"Yes, the Salbins Sparkling Star Incident ......" did not notice Xinglan's abnormality, Xiao Cheng was completely immersed in the memory, "The Salbins Telescope was the largest astronomical telescope of our home star at that time, it floated outside the limit range of stellar winds, and it was a cosmic platform for celestial observation directly in the interstellar wind environment. During a focusing operation, a new scientist accidentally mistook the parameters of the target, and the telescope turned on the power of an ordinary star that scientists had never cared about, only to accidentally discover the magic there. It was a star whose brightness was constantly changing, and after a series of calculations, scientists were surprised to find that it was completely impossible to explain the sudden change in the brightness of this star with known theories, and at the same time, a series of tiny continuous radiations were detected within the star system, which were so small that it would not have been possible to detect these miniature radiants without the entire telescope fully focused on the star. So scientists made a bold guess that this star system may have alien civilizations that people have never found before, and they used technology to create these anomalous phenomena. For some reason, I fell in love with that beautiful star from the first time I saw it, so from then on, I secretly made up my mind to reveal the secret myself, and I became the top space pilot of the entire civilization......"

"Xiao Cheng, what do you mean by ......?"

"Yes, that's it." Xiao Cheng looked at Xing Lan again, "That's right, that star is you." ”

“……”

Ignoring Xing Lan's silence, Xiao Cheng continued, "If it weren't for the destruction of my home planet, I probably wouldn't have come here. I didn't tell you before, even if all the escape plans were successful, only six people would survive, which is why I want to re-evolve humans on this planet, even if ...... It's no longer the same Earth humans. ”

"You're finally willing to say it." Without the mischievous mood, Xinglan's voice revealed a seriousness, and she looked at Xiao Cheng quietly, "Actually, when you first came, I checked the database of the new star. You should know that all of your electronic defenses are vulnerable to anything less than an order of magnitude of computation. ”

“…… Did you peek at my ship's core library? Xiao Cheng's face changed suddenly, and after a while, he sighed softly, "You are really not stupid, so I am relieved." ”

"Xiao Cheng ......"

"In the vast universe, not to mention large galaxies, even if they are star systems, they are like islands in the boundless sea, what kind of fate is this......" Sitting on the chair, Xiao Cheng looked up at the ceiling, as if he saw a sky full of stars, "I, not only found here, but also personally participated in the creation of the intelligent race here." In fact, if the home planet had not been destroyed, human civilization might have disappeared in the torrent of time at this moment......"

"However, after all, the Nova is an experimental spacecraft that has just mastered the transition technology......," Xiao Cheng sighed and said, "The poor technology leads to a short distance for a single jump, although the energy is sufficient, but it takes so long to get here...... Even if time is greatly stretched by the relativistic effects of near-light-speed flight, the interior of the spacecraft has been spent thousands of years. ”

"Huh? It's not a long time. Xinglan tilted her head in confusion.

“…… A sucker! Xiao Cheng showed a smile and flicked Xinglan's forehead...... Well, because it's an artificial realistic skin, it doesn't bounce on metal and hurt your fingers, "Plants may be able to support it, but for ordinary animals, thousands of years is a terrible concept of time...... After all, dormancy is not a real time standstill, and such a long period of dormancy has left a major hidden danger to the body, so after waking up, even if you add the effect of physique enhancers, it is already very good to last for fifteen years......

"Xiao Cheng......" Xing Lan said with a hint of anticipation, "There must be other ways, right?" ”

"Who knows?" Xiao Cheng struggled to stand up, "Can you help me bring the spacesuit?" ”

"What's wrong?"

"At least let me send them into the environment by hand......" Xiao Cheng took out some small equipment from the drawer and took it on, and instructed the robots around him to carry the sealing box to the nova, "We ...... Let's go to Lanxing to see the sea ......"

After being stunned for a while, Xing Lan nodded slightly, and in a trance, there seemed to be a trace of fluctuation in the eyes of the ruby-like machine: "Hmm." ”

(The first time I saw a collection of more than 100 said!) So happy, so happy...... ）
