The conditions for the existence of combustible ice are, one is low temperature, the other is high pressure, and the third is methane gas source. Seeing the third, Summer asked, "The temperature of the seabed is low, and the pressure is high, so combustible ice can be formed." How did this methane come about? ”

"The sediments from the corpses of ancient sea creatures can decompose methane gas. ”

"I see," said Summer, "so in this area of strange life, close to the land, it was a living colony long ago, from land life to sea life, and then as the tectonic plates subsided, a zone of combustible ice was formed here. ”

In the subsequent information fed back by the locust drone, it was shown that there were indeed a large number of signs of large-scale biological activity in the area, because the summer had been ordered not to get too close, so it was difficult to see what was from time to time.

"Interesting, this poor strange is not the same as what is described in our ancient deification, it is actually a sea creature."

Cangyue said: "No, my lord, to be precise, it is an amphibious creature, which can live both in the sea and on land. This is evident from the fact that it has wings and can fly low, but due to its degradation, it is more suitable for living in water. ”

Summer began to conclude: "This poor strange appeared on the earth in ancient times, and later due to various reasons, it may be extinct, or it may be taken back by the system of the small universe, or maybe it will be taken back. In fact, it is just a very ordinary creature, because it only appeared in the pan in ancient times on Earth. So it was deified by ancient books like the Classic of Mountains and Seas, including Pixiu, Phoenix and other lives.

"So, there is a very big difference between the real Qiqi and what is recorded in our ancient books, Brother Huangfu, do you remember the record about Pixiu, it actually said that it has no *** no ** creatures, where does it pull after eating, isn't it? It seems that many of the creatures mentioned in ancient mythology exist in the Lighthouse Star, and perhaps in another 13,260 worlds, maybe?

"On the other hand, this poor strange is not a ferocious beast, at least it will not attack humans when it is not a nuisance. Because they live in the ocean, apart from the sea, they can't live for too long. It's humans who disturb it, and it's attacked. ”

"So what are we going to do?" Huangfu asked, and the other people present also looked at Xia with inquiring eyes. Since Summer said so, it means that he doesn't want to kill these monsters.

"Well," said Summer, "we'll rest here for the night now, and we'll take a ship together tomorrow." ”

Everyone didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd in the summer, why should it be delayed until tomorrow? But I heard Xia say: "Cangyue, send the 10,000 locusts back, and leave 1,000 where to monitor, in addition, send 100,000 locust drones to survey combustible ice resources within a radius of 5,000 kilometers." Survey results, let me know tomorrow morning. ”

"Yes, sir."

The emperor asked puzzledly, "Lord, are we going to rest here for one night?" What about the conquest of the Plum Vegetable Continent? ”

"Let's rest for one night first, let's talk about the matter of the Plum Vegetable Continent, and I'll make plans tomorrow. King Fajera, do you have a liquor spring here? Summer asked.

"Liquan? What is it? Fajira asked.

"Why, you don't even have a Liquan here?" This time it was summer's turn to be surprised. You know, in the skies of Scud, there are springs on every hanging peak of opportunity, even on pumice stones. There are many minerals and microorganisms that are beneficial to the human body, and there is also a magnetic therapy effect, so bathing in the spring is a very comfortable and healthy activity. But there is no one on this Pufeng!

In view of King Fajira's lack of knowledge about the Springs, Queen Dote gave him the details of the Springs. Fajira sighed: "It turns out that there will be such a good thing in the sky above the land, and the phoenix, it is really envious." ”

At noon, King Fajila entertained everyone for dinner, and the emperor was a Ming man who couldn't eat what was here, so he had to return to the warship to eat. At lunchtime, King Fajira introduced Summer to the world of the sky on the ocean.

In the process of drifting between the two hemispheres, Pufeng only got to know three countries with hanging peaks, and they also floated back and forth between the two oceans like Pufeng. This is in the Northern Hemisphere and has four overhanging peaks. The Southern Hemisphere doesn't know how many there are. Originally, I just wanted to go to the Plum Vegetable Continent in the summer to recover the upper and lower worlds there, but I didn't expect that there were still hanging peaks on this ocean.

In the summer's large-scale construction plan, it is necessary to mine and utilize the lighthouse star in an all-round way, and finally take away all the humans here. This is out of thin air in the ocean sky world, there are four hanging peaks in the northern hemisphere, plus those in the southern hemisphere, how can there be seven or eight hanging peaks. The hanging peaks on this ocean will not affect Summer's future career, but when the time comes to leave the planet for interstellar migration, he can't bear to leave behind the humans on these hanging peaks in Summer. If you want to take it all, you have to take it all.

Since he wants to take them all away, then the work here must be done well, so that the people here are full of awe and trust in him and Daming. Now, as long as the matter of Qiqi is solved, there is no worry that Pufeng will not return, and once Pufeng is submitted, the other three hanging peak countries in the northern hemisphere will definitely be infected by it. As for the southern hemisphere, there will be time later, anyway, there will be time later.

There is also a very peculiar phenomenon in the lighthouse star, that is, although the lighthouse star and the earth also have the north and south poles and the equator, there is no division of the cold zone in the world, because the temperature difference between the lighthouse star is not large, and the north and south poles have the same temperature as the equator. And the north and south poles do not have the phenomenon of polar day and night like the earth, because there are three suns on the lighthouse star, and every corner of the planet can be fully illuminated by the sun.

Planetary and lunar eclipses are also common on Lighthouse Stars, with celestial eclipses (including solar, planetary, and lunar eclipses) visible almost every day.

Since we have to wait until tomorrow to act, and Pufeng doesn't have a liquor spring to bathe, there is nothing else to do. In the summer, he simply asked the robot to remove some equipment from the battleship and put it in the bedroom arranged for him by the king. He planned to work in the palace bedroom, which he could have done on the warship, but in order to strengthen his intimacy with the Pufeng royal family, he definitely came down to work.

The so-called office, of course, is to communicate with the fleet, the three kingdoms of Skad, Sky and Earth in real time, conduct remote command, chat with his wife and children during intervals, and of course, do not forget to say hello to his old parents who are far away in the solar system.

In this way, I stayed in Pufeng for half a day and a night, and waited until the next morning to start the operation.
