Milky Way, Centaur Vortex Arms.

A cloud of cosmic dust is spreading, spreading towards the boundless expanse of stars.

This is the starry sky remnants of the supernova Velidad that exploded 11,000 years ago, and these debris have been spreading around for millions of years since the explosion, and then overlapping with another, older, and larger supernova remnant.

This even older supernova remnant is the Gum Nebula.

The Gum Nebula, located in the constellations Sail and Appus, which exploded more than 1 million years ago and has been in a state of continuous diffusion, is the iconic deep-sky star on the Sagittarius whirlpool and the closest supernova remnant to the solar system.

These two supernova remnants overlapping are so huge, so deep and dark, and so close to the solar system that they are difficult to observe from any vantage point in the solar system, let alone on Earth.

On Earth, let alone observing these two deep-space wreckage, it is not easy to even look at them.

The solar system, the Earth.

On August 29, 2130, it was a normal Tuesday morning, and the sun was shining.

On the G99 highway in a coastal city on the east coast of Asia, an ultra-luxurious dark blue extended Lincoln is speeding at high speed. In the middle of the compartment, where the doors were locked, several good-looking men leaned out of the huge roof window while jostling and laughing, and raised their middle fingers at another car that followed closely behind.

And in the roof window of another hole in the same car, someone was picking up a mobile phone and laughing to record a video for them.

In the man's shot, a stunningly beautiful fiery red Porsche was racing left, right, fast, and slow around their Lincoln, and it had just slowed down behind the Lincoln. As soon as the people in the Porsche saw that the people in front of them were laughing and trembling, they raised their middle fingers in response, and then stepped on the accelerator and flew up.

The person who was filming first caught the Porsche's sudden speed, and then captured that passionate fiery red and instantly soared, and instantly rushed towards himself.

Then, there is no then.

The accident happened in a short moment, and all the hustle and bustle, all the jokes and jokes were forever fixed in that passionate fiery red. Because in the short moment when Porsche stepped on the accelerator and caught up, it suddenly lost control, and it suddenly crashed headlong into the speeding Lincoln, and the huge impact inertia and impact force made the original red and blue beautiful picture become fragmented in a short moment.

With the violent sound of metal crashing and the piercing sound of metal tearing, the passionate fiery red instantly rolled into the air and flew into the air, and then smashed heavily into the middle of the Lincoln.

Yes, the out-of-control Porsche slammed into the roof of the open window of the Lincoln, and the flesh flew in an instant.

But the disaster was not only coming, the two cars that collided were instantly engulfed by a huge fireball and billowing smoke, the fire was very ferocious, and then an explosion occurred. When police cars and fire trucks quickly arrived at the scene of the accident to rescue them, all that came into view were the remains of the two frames that had been burned together into a pile of scrap metal and a miserable sight.

At noon on the same day, the police announced the facts of the car accident, and announced with regret: none of the people in the Porsche and Lincoln were spared, and all of them died.

Later that day, Neng Yuanhao, who was testing intelligent robots at high altitudes near the ground, suddenly received a satellite call, and the other end of the phone first briefly informed him of the car accident, and then issued an order: immediately activate the emergency plan.

In the afternoon, when the sun was setting.

In another coastal city in southeastern Asia, An Qi, a researcher at a postdoctoral mobile station at a medical university, has just driven back to the old house where her mother has lived for a long time, and is about to sit down to have dinner with her chattering mother.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

She immediately took out her phone and glanced at it, and then she caught a glimpse of a landline number displayed on the phone screen. If it were someone else, he would definitely think, "What age is this?" There are still people on the earth who use this antique landline from hundreds of years ago to make phone calls? ”

But when An Qi glanced at the extremely familiar landline number, he immediately chuckled in his heart.

Don't?

Didn't she just giggle or something?

Because this landline number hasn't contacted her for a long time since the news was officially announced, she thought it was all over, who would have thought that she would be called again today. But Angel's strong sixth-sense intuition told her what it meant for this landline to call her at this time.

So, Anqi immediately connected the phone.

"Anqi, is that you?" The other party's voice was obviously very hurried.

"It's me." Anqi responded calmly.

"I just received an urgent notice that there is a very, very important meeting tomorrow morning that you need to attend in person." The other party immediately informed the details.

"Tomorrow morning? Some? An Qi was stunned.

"Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock sharp." The other party immediately replied.

"What kind of meeting is this? Do you have to be there early in the morning? An Qi asked puzzled.

"We have just received a notice that someone will fly down from above to meet you tomorrow morning, saying that there is something very important to meet with you." The other party gave an answer.

"Someone came to meet with me? Who? An Qi was immediately stunned again.

"Neng Yuanhao." The other party replied.

"Instructor?" An Qi was stunned again.

"Yes." The other party replied again.

"Okay, I got it. Please reply to the other party: I will be on time tomorrow morning, thank you! An Qi immediately gave a clear answer.

"Okay, then I wish you all the best, I'm hanging!"

"Thank you for the notification, I'm hanging too!" After An Qi finished speaking, he hung up the phone with the other party.

An Qi, who put down the phone, was stunned for a moment, and then as soon as she looked up, she met her mother's wide-eyed staring. And the funny thing is that her mother was just holding a small blue and white porcelain bowl to serve the old fire soup, and the action has stopped in mid-air like petrification at this time.

An Qi immediately held his forehead, and immediately knew that something was wrong.

Sure enough, her mother's next reaction was even faster than she expected, and almost as soon as An Qi met her gaze, her mother immediately began to question in a weird way.

"Whose phone is this?"

At this time, An Qi was still thinking about the phone call just now, she didn't come back to her senses at all how to respond to her mother, but immediately she met her mother's complaint.

"Isn't that a good meal? Others will rush home early to rest after work, and you have to work overtime every day to do some ghost experiments. Shall I endure all this? But you finally came home for a drink, and the phone came after you with your heels..."

"Mom..."An Qi weakly called out to his mother.

"This can't work, I must go to your unit to complain, I must ask your leaders to guarantee that you have the most basic right to rest." Her mother immediately shouted.

"Mom, it's not like our leader is looking for me." An Qi had to quickly explain.

"Not your leader? That... Who's going to tell you to go back to the meeting early tomorrow morning? Her mother immediately asked.

"Who else? Isn't it the 'Protect the Earth' non-profit organization? An Qi couldn't even afford to put down her mobile phone, so she immediately turned on the emergency mode to deal with her mother.

"What? You tell me again? Her mother was immediately stunned.

"I said that it was the non-profit organization that 'protects the earth' that told me to go tomorrow morning, saying that I was going to have a meeting." An Qi had to say it again, and her mother fried the pot when she heard it. Don't? What she has always hated the most is the righteous organization that pesters her daughter all day long. Oh, she immediately got angry, immediately put down the soup bowl in her hand, and immediately began to chatter.

"I said Qi'er, it's not your mother who said you, you have been a member of the 'protect the earth' public welfare organization since you were in high school, your mother and I have a lot of opinions. Qi'er, you have so much spare time to protect the earth, but you don't want to sit down with your mother and me? ”

“.…..” Anqi was speechless.

"I said Qi'er..."Her mother turned on the Tang monk chanting mode.

“.…..” An Qi held his forehead, isn't this coming again?

"I said Qi'er, you yourself are not too young, you won't pick up your own fingers and calculate: by the end of the year, you will be thirty years old?"

"Mom..."At this time, An Qi was already full of black lines, "I said, Mom, what do you want to say?" ”

"I said Qi'er, you know what Mom wants to say: What else can Mom say about you in this life? What else can be expected from you? Aren't you just expecting you to find a son-in-law for your mother to come back quickly..."Her mother started the marriage urging mode again.

"And then?" An Qi asked subconsciously.

"Then hurry up and marry yourself, and go to your little life well....."

"I said Mom, what you said about living a good life: just let me become the second chattering mother like you? And then you go to my dad to quarrel all day long? Anqi was speechless.

"You said this kid, don't I disagree with your father?"

"Heh, the three views don't match, right? The three views don't match, did you still get married? Could it be that you were as lucky and invincible as me back then, and you also had a super chatty mother? An Qi immediately laughed.

"Your grandmother, you say? She didn't chatter. Her mother immediately explained.

"So, why did you marry my dad back then?" An Qi continued to ask with a smile.

"That, that's not because I was playful back then, I had you in my belly..."

"Mom, you'd better stop for me." An Qi immediately waved his hand, "Please, Mom, don't talk about me, you gave birth to me without my consent, and I haven't settled this account with you yet..."

"Qi'er...... "Her mother wants to say something."

"I said Mom, if you still expect me to come home to have dinner with you every week as always, then let me have dinner, otherwise..."

"Okay, okay, mom doesn't say it, mom doesn't say it? You eat, you eat well..."Her mother immediately shut up as soon as she saw An Qi's expression. Hehe, she's a chatter, but she knows her daughter's spleen better, doesn't she? Then she looked for the bottom of the stairs and said, "Oh, I still have a dish in the pot, Mom, let's go to the kitchen to have a look..."

"Look, that's right." An Qi immediately put down her mobile phone, and immediately stepped forward to hug her mother's old face, "Come on, my good mother, please accept the weekly kiss that your daughter has given you." After saying this, An Qi kissed her mother's old face, which was left and right.

"Poof! Kiss! These two fragrant kisses immediately made her mother happy, and she immediately twisted into the kitchen.

Seeing his mother enter the kitchen, An Qi pulled back her distracted self just now. Yes, what made her distracted was the phone call she just received. No one else knew it, but she knew very well that the phone call she had just answered contained was hugely informative.

That news has already been announced to the public, isn't the instructor always busy on it these days?

Since the notice of the meeting was given to her by a special plane, since it was still notified by a special person and a special line, and since it was the instructor himself who flew to meet with her. Then, that's all he has to do with her tomorrow. Thinking of this, An Qi suddenly felt her heart beat wildly, and she immediately pushed open the gate facing the back flower courtyard, wanting to go out and take a breath.

But what surprised her was that the twenty-one large water tanks lined up next to the gate were gone. An Qi immediately lifted his forehead, oh, those lotus flowers were moved away again. Oh no, it should be said that it was borrowed again, and it was borrowed along with the water tank with lotus flowers.

In fact, An Qi has already seen the news, saying that the annual International Lotus Festival was held in Lianshan as scheduled, and this year's theme is said to be "romantic marriage". In the visual feast of the sea of flowers all over the mountains, the most popular thing for tourists is the lotus flower that blooms once a year in the sacred realm of Lianshan Mountain, which is the unique lotus in this world. And the twenty-one large water tanks that were strictly guarded and guarded by a group of security personnel in the Lianshan Holy Realm were removed from the backyard of her house.

An Qi was thinking, the leaders of the Lianshan Scenic Area are really persistent, they are really obsessed, as always, year after year to come to her house to borrow flowers and offer Buddha, and this borrowing is more than ten years.

Don't?

An Qi glanced at her empty backyard, and thought to herself, no wonder the leaders of the scenic spot come to her house year after year to borrow those lotus flowers to fill the façade of the Lotus Festival in the Lotus Mountain Holy Realm.

You must know that there are not many people in this world, let alone Dottie's and Tillian? And her mother actually lined up twenty-one large water tanks in the back garden of her house to cultivate the best and unique products in the lotus and the unique seven tiles, especially the blue lotus known as the return of the king.

However, Anqi has turned a blind eye to these masterpieces and unique products for a long time.

Because her mother was born in Lotus Township since she was a child, An Qi was not surprised that her mother raised lotus flowers in her back garden. It wasn't until one year that the staff of Guinness World Records directly found the leaders of the Lianshan Scenic Area, and the leaders of the scenic spot brought the people directly to their homes, and An Qi knew that the only person on the earth today who could cultivate the seven-pedicing blue lotus was actually her mother.

Hehe...

Since then, the leaders of the Lianshan Scenic Area have been even more tireless in coming to her house to borrow flowers. And every time her mother nods, the scenic spot will send a professional hoisting and handling company, which will directly enter the back garden of her house and lift away the big water tank with lotus, which is said to be a lot of money every time it is moved.

But Anqi also clearly knows that compared with the extremely considerable ticket income of the Lianshan Scenic Area in midsummer every year, especially compared with the tens of millions of ticket revenues collected by the Lianshan Holy Realm for the second time, what are these handling fees? And this does not even include the other commercial benefits of the sale of souvenirs and mascots related to the seven tillians in the scenic spot.

Of course, An Qi does not deny that the scenic spot actually pays her mother a lot of copyright and rental income every year. However, An Qi knows very well that her mother is not greedy for those copyrights and rents at all, not only is her mother not greedy for money, but she also feels that her back garden will be ruined by those hoisting and handling companies once a year, which is annoying.

So her mother simply made a decision that could be done once and for all in a certain year, that is: she donated the twenty-one large water tanks with lotus plants to the scenic spot for free.

It is said that the leaders of the Lianshan Scenic Area at that time were almost not crazy with music.

However, it is strange to say.

Those peerless one-of-a-kind lotus plants seem to be unable to live alone once they leave her mother, no matter how carefully the professional lotus artists hired by the scenic spot are, but those donated plants are not able to survive, and in the end they all hung up.

So her mother donated lotus flowers seven times in seven consecutive years, but every time she donated them, the flowers were good, and they were all very competitive when she participated in the lotus exhibition. But when the summer is over, when the lotus show is over, all those plants will hang up.

At the end of the day, the leaders of the scenic spot sent all the lotus flowers donated by her mother back to her back garden seven times in a row, and they also sent back the water tank with plants. And the end result is that the hanging plants have come to life again and again under the care of her mother.

As a result, the leaders of the scenic spot have completely lost this heart, and they no longer expect the lotus artists in the scenic spot to cultivate this kind of unique product. In their opinion, there is a certain reason why Qidi and Tilian can be called a masterpiece and a unique product, and it is not something that can be easily cultivated by an individual.

Ay...

As a result, the back garden of Anqi's house will be trampled by the professional hoisting and handling company invited by the scenic spot year after year. This, she was really hated by her mother. For the annual lotus exhibition, the leader of the scenic spot had to pay rent to her mother every year at the same time, and cheekily took out an extra sum of money to renovate the back garden of her family once a year.

That's fine, too...

However, An Qi didn't care about these things, at this moment she pushed open the door of the back garden and walked into the garden, but she didn't see a lotus, so she could only look up at the sky. Oh, when she looked up, she saw the red glow of the sunset, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so beautiful!" ”

Don't?

At this moment, what caught her eye was the extremely beautiful red glow in the sky.

Here, An Qi is sighing at the red glow in the back garden of his house.

Over there, He Qianqian, who was attending a private collection exchange dinner held by the Collectors Association somewhere in inland Asia, also received a phone call.

"Millennium, it's me." Although the other end of the phone was trying to control it, there was still a clear excitement that could not be suppressed.

"Yuan Hao, what can make you so excited?"

"Millennium, I just received an official notification from the CNSA today: you have been approved to board the ship." There was an excited announcement on the other end of the phone.

"What?" He Qianqian was taken aback.

"I just received an order today: activate the emergency plan immediately. And I didn't dare to take it lightly, and I called the relevant departments to verify all the details before I dared to call you. The other party is explaining.

"If you haven't verified it again, you're afraid that it's an oolong yourself, right?" He Qianqian immediately asked with a smile.

"Isn't that right? When has this been? I don't dare to do oolong. The other party explained with a smile.

"So, it's true this time?" He Qianqian asked with a smile.

"Millennium, are you surprised? Are you surprised? The other end of the line asked eagerly.

"Well, I admit that the amount of information you made today was too much, and although it was reasonable, it was unexpected." He Qianqian responded.

"You have spent fifteen years for a thousand years, haven't you looked forward to it in your heart?" Asked on the other end of the line.

"Me? Didn't you say to me: If you don't expect, you won't be disappointed? He Qianqian couldn't help but smile and replied.

"That's true, but what I'm going to say now is congratulations, congratulations on the fact that you've finally been rewarded for all your work over the past fifteen years." The other party is also laughing.

"What about the others? Have others been allowed as well? Have they been notified as well? He Qianqian suddenly thought of something.

"They've all been approved, too."

"So, Qi'er? Will Qi'er go with you too? He Qianqian immediately asked.

"Of course."

Does she agree? Or what I should ask is: would her mom agree? He Qianqian immediately changed the wording.

"Before I call you this satellite phone, I have already arranged for the Academy of Sciences to notify them according to the procedure. As for Qi'er herself? I'll fly in myself tomorrow morning to interview her in person. ”

"So, do you think Qi'er will go with you?" He Qianqian asked cautiously.

"She has to come with me." Noh Yuanhao responded confidently.

"Okay, then I wish you success in the series of soft and hard plans you have implemented against Qi'er tomorrow morning." He Qianqian immediately laughed.

"Hehe, thanks to your auspicious words today, tomorrow I must take down the thorn of Qi'er......." There was a long-lost laugh on the other end of the conversation, "Happy Millennium Weekend, I'll call you after I'm done..."

"Alright, I'll wait for your call." He Qianqian put down the phone after speaking, but the hand he was holding the phone was not only sweaty at this time, but also trembling slightly.

So, while placing the champagne glass in his hand into a waiter's tray nearby, He Qianqian grabbed his mobile phone and walked through a crowd of people wearing tuxedos and evening dresses. He nodded calmly to the group of talkers as he walked, and then he walked through the fragrant warbler Yanyan in three steps and two steps to the large open-air platform outside the clubhouse, and then reached out and stroked his heart, which was almost jumping out of his chest.

"Bang bang! Bang bang! Bang bang bang! His heart was still pounding.

Isn't?

It wasn't that he wasn't surprised just now, and it wasn't that he was sick, but he had been trying his best to endure it. But in fact, his heart was beating so fast just now, like a deer running happily, and as if he had suddenly had a heart attack.

So He Qianqian stroked his heart, and then looked up into the distance.

At this moment, the half-set sun in the distance is like a loving mother, because the land with a group of children is reluctant to leave, so the sunset on the horizon is more and more brilliant. The half-round sunset was like a golden carriage driven by Taiyan wandering in the sky, and the golden sunset shone out from the sky, soaking the whole sky.

It's beautiful, it's really beautiful.

He Qianqian was unconsciously attracted by the distant sky, and he was stunned.

On the same day, on the territory of Turkey.

In Padociaca, which is separated by a full 6 hours of longitude and time difference from the Chinese time zone, the annual World Hot Air Balloon Championship is in full swing of competition and competition. More than 200 professional-level teams from more than 100 countries are preparing to fly over a mountain as they control their hot air balloons while battling the winds between them.

Countless hot air balloon enthusiasts and tourists from all over the world are already waiting on the observation deck in the landing area. They all held binoculars and looked at the mountains in the distance, all looking forward to the colorful hot air balloons coming in droves to welcome the wind, decorating the sky with a dreamy appearance.

Don't?

At the annual hot air balloon race held by IAF, the most exciting event is the championship landing moment. This time of year is the most exciting time for tourists, who rent their favorite grandstand box early, and then call their friends to wait and wait together.

They want to join their favorite contestants: Hey! Flip over! Sky! ‘’

Fast!

Fast! Finish!

Fast! Come! Finish!

End! In! Come! Finish!

The eye-shocking picture that everyone was waiting for: the end! In! Arrive! Come! Finish!

When the sun has become less powerful, when the sun has turned to the distant mountains to the west, the final sprint and landing competition begins. Tourists have stood up from the stands excitedly, they have picked up their binoculars to look at the colorful clouds, dozens of hot air balloons have flown over the mountains far ahead, and are getting bigger and bigger to meet people's eyes, and are speeding towards the landing area.

Suddenly, a gust of wind struck, and suddenly blew these dozens of hot air balloons far ahead, just like those colorful petals blown off by the wind disappeared in the wind. The audience on the ground all looked up in tension to watch this competition between man and nature.

And in the midst of this sudden storm, a public welfare hot air balloon marked with four large Chinese fonts of "protect the earth" is holding the helm steadily, while fighting wits and courage with the sudden wind.

Hehe, they succeeded.

Hehe, finally man defeated God.

I saw that they controlled the hot air balloon steadily, avoided the strong wind, and with a flash of the sudden attack of the wind, they returned to their original route, and took the lead in entering the landing area of the race with an extremely graceful floating attitude.

Then Shi Dingfang, the captain of the public welfare team from China, stood still, only to see that he first handed over the flight control of the hot air balloon to his UI teammates, and then stepped on the floor of the gondola with his feet in accordance with the requirements of the competition, and then the landing performance with great viewing effect kicked off in his extremely chic and confident attitude.

I saw that he held the tail of the streamer of the logo bag that had been unfolded, and threw the streamer-type logo bag in his hand vertically one by one with a standard gesture without any horizontal foul action, and those colorful ribbon logo bags were like flying fairy landing, and they floated down and landed firmly on the landing mark that had been selected before the game.

Then the hot air balloon for the charity competition to promote "protect the earth" landed perfectly in the bursts of cheers on the observation deck.

The champion team was born.

And Shi Dingfang, the captain of this year's champion team, once again led his team to break the world record set by himself in the previous edition.

Originally, the award ceremony would be held on the spot after all the participating teams returned to the landing site, but as soon as he returned to the ground, Shi Dingfang immediately called the organizing committee that was preparing for the award ceremony, and politely informed the other party that he had to leave immediately and would not be able to participate in the subsequent award ceremony.

Then he gave his reasons.

While the reason he gave stunned the organizers, he immediately got the understanding of the other party, and the other party gave the most sincere congratulations without stopping. But the news that he was about to leave was still stunned and shocked, and his teammates and friends who flocked to congratulate him.

Why?

Why is that?

Wasn't it all said well?

Didn't everyone say that when the competition was over, they would attend the medal ceremony first, and then they would ask a group of friends out for a drink, and then they would plan together how to indulge in the next few days?

Didn't you say you would join the crowd of tourists from all over the world and be in a holiday and cheerful mood for the next amateur comedy competition? For example, there are fun contests, funny contests, and even Miss Bikini contests.

You know, this year's hot air balloon carnival program is richer than ever before, after the end of the professional event, almost every day a variety of new and lively hot air balloons will fly into the sky, a variety of activities enough to arouse the hormonal excitement of tourists will be colorful in the next few days. But how can everything that is clearly said to be good change?

However, Shi Dingfang told everyone that he had to leave.

There is no other reason.

For while he was still at the top of the mountains battling those strong winds, he had received a satellite call, and he had been notified that he had been allowed to board the ship.

What?

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then a huge cheer broke out.

So Shi Dingfang jumped into an off-road vehicle in the hug of all his teammates, and with the blessings of friends who came to cheer for him and celebrate the championship, he jumped into an off-road vehicle and walked away.

At the same time, it was Cappadocia.

Deep underground, in the depths of this ancient city famous for its speckled rock formations, in its miles of caves, tunnels, and countless underground cities, a scientific expedition studying geology and groundwater resources has reached an uninhabited area 500 meters below the surface.

The person in charge of this scientific expedition team is none other than Cao Lingzhong, an expert in geology, geomorphology and water resources from China.

The purpose of his trip was to probe the stratigraphy and water veins of the deeper abyss of the ancient underground ruins of the Cappadocia region, and at this moment, after a short rest, he had just left a 500-meter-deep uninhabited area, and was digging deeper into the depths, preparing to enter a deeper depth.

At this moment, a hanging basket was being slowly lifted from the ground to the ground.

I saw that the hanging basket was first hoisted to a depth of 100 meters underground, and then it was taken off and carried out of a long distance in his hand, and then put it on the second hook and continued to be hoisted down to a depth of 200 meters. Immediately afterwards, the hanging basket was hoisted to a depth of 300 meters. After several rounds like this, the basket was finally sent to a depth of 500 meters.

Eventually, someone picked up a satellite phone from the basket that was flashing a hint button. Then, the phone was stuffed between the neck and chin of a busy man.

The person who answered the phone was none other than Cao Lingzhong.

In other words, Cao Lingzhong at this moment is very busy, he has just been tied into a hoisting basket that is about to go down, at this time he is holding a detector in his left hand and a recorder in his right hand, and he is preparing for the next step of detection.

But he himself knew that he couldn't answer the call that had been chased underground to find him. As soon as the other party made the call, he directly told the ground personnel that if Cao Lingzhong himself did not answer the call himself, then he would keep calling until the satellite phone of the scientific expedition team was scrapped.

The other party said very persistently that even if he dug 500 meters into the ground, he would find Cao Lingzhong, and let him personally answer the call.

Hehe, it is said that all the people who are engaged in geological research work are tendons, and it seems that this person is even more tendons than them. As a result, the left-behind personnel on the ground had to obediently cooperate, and the phone that did not hang up was sent underground.

At this time, Cao Lingzhong signaled the surrounding staff not to stop working with his eyes, and then responded with a tilted head and grinning to the person who used a satellite phone to find him and refused to hang up the phone.

"Hello, I'm Cao Lingzhong."

"Ling Zhong, it's me." A familiar voice came from the other end of the line.

"Instructor?" Cao Lingzhong responded in surprise.

"It's me." The other party seemed to have a calm expression.

"I said, instructor, how did you find me?" Cao Lingzhong was so surprised.

"I called your phone, and it kept showing no signal. I called Science to find you, and they said you went to Turkey to drill a hole, and they gave me this phone number. ”

"I said instructor, not only did you use the satellite phone to find me, but you also waited patiently for so long without hanging up, it seems that you really have something to do with me? But you know what, instructor? The people on the ground are said to have broken three ropes in order to send me this phone from you. ”

"Isn't that right?" The other party is also laughing.

"Then, let me think about it, what kind of good thing would it be for the instructor to come to me like this?" Cao Lingzhong was about to think about it. Who would have thought that the other party, who had been waiting patiently for a long time, did not give him this opportunity, but gave the answer directly.

"Ling Zhong, on behalf of the CNSA, I would like to formally inform you: you have been approved to board the ship."

"What?" Cao Lingzhong was stunned.

"Are you surprised? Not surprised? The other party asked teasingly on the other end of the phone.

"It's... Is this true? Cao Lingzhong is simply overjoyed.

"Really."

"Doesn't that mean I can finally go to outer space and burrow?"

"Is that not it?"

"Then, when can I board the ship, instructor?"

"October 1st."

"I'll go, there are only thirty-three days left, do you want to rush like this?" Cao Lingzhong immediately burst into a foul mouth with a smile.

"I said Cao Lingzhong, aren't you already ready?" The other party immediately teased him.

"Well, that's right."

"I've arranged for the Academy of Sciences to inform the West Asian Research Center, and the person they sent to take over you is probably already on the way. According to the plan, I will pick you up and return home tonight. ”

"That..."

"Then congratulations, we'll see you when we get home." After the other party was notified, he was ready to hang up the phone.

"What about the others? None of the others should be missing, right? Cao Lingzhong immediately asked.

"I've already called to inform the millennium and the fixed party, and you are the third." The other party immediately responded.

"Then, what about Cheng Qing and Yingjun?" Cao Lingzhong immediately asked anxiously.

"What? Would you like them to go together? The other party asked with a smile.

"Of course, how fun are those two guys? If the two of them could go together, we wouldn't feel idle along the way, right? ”

"Well, in order to fulfill your heart of not wanting to be idle, I'll call them later." The other party immediately responded teasingly.

"Really?"

"Really." The other party responds.

"Instructor, you are such a good person, I love you to death." Cao Lingzhong immediately blossomed with joy, and immediately couldn't help laughing. He was better off not smiling, and the satellite phone slipped straight between his neck and chin when he laughed, and then fell straight into the depths of the underground beneath the safety basket.

Hehehe, the call between the two was hung up. The satellite phone has disappeared, and it is estimated that there will be no way to find it back for a while. Even if it is recovered, it will be difficult to get the phone through the underground area. Well, let's get back to work.

But when Cao Lingzhong raised his head and was about to order everyone to continue to dive in, he found that he had been surrounded by countless scorching eyes.

Don't?

Cao Lingzhong was immediately warmly surrounded by his peers. So in a dark passage more than 500 meters away from the Cappadocia dungeon, all kinds of heartfelt and warm congratulations immediately sounded. Under these circumstances, Cao Lingzhong had no choice but to announce: This is the end of today's exploration work.

He decided to invite everyone back to the ground for a drink as a celebratory gesture.

So everyone immediately cheered, and then everyone immediately started to pack up the detection instruments and protective equipment and start to go up. In the process of the ascent of the people, Cao Lingzhong's recorder showed that the depth of the stratum that the people probed this time was 556 meters.

On the same day, at dusk.

In the western mountains of the Mongolian steppe, the annual "Naadam" convention culminates in August, when the livestock are at their fattest, with their favorite nightly bonfires.

Zoologist Kang Yingjun and botanist Cheng Qing, who have almost become good friends since they were in high school, signed up for three events in broad daylight, including horse racing, archery and wrestling.

No, at this time, the two of them were being teased and played around the campfire by a group of dead friends and bad friends.

It's just that the two of them don't care, and the friends are making fun of him being beaten half to death by competitive opponents, so they eat meat and drink wine in big bowls. Don't? They didn't come to the grassland to compete in the first place to get any rankings and prize money. Since it's just for a vacation, how easy it should be to come, how happy to come, right?

So when the clock struck midnight, when the dim bonfire was once again thrown into the thick wood-burning, when the flame burned freely again, all the Cinderellas who had participated in the Aobao meeting lost all their magical aura and began to become bold and open at the bonfire.

Don't?

At the "Naadam" bonfire party at midnight, the crowd was crowding and the demons were dancing.

The tourists were all hustle and bustle, and they all writhed wildly around the bonfire. Cheng Qing and Kang Yingjun also mixed with the noisy and cheerful crowd with their friends, and they were each pulling a girl who came to meet with Ao Bao, and they were indulging and dancing around the bonfire together.

Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound from behind Cheng Qing's buttocks. Oh no, it should be said that Cheng Qing's mobile phone stuffed in the butt pocket of his jeans is vibrating non-stop. At this time, Cheng Qing was obviously drunk, and he couldn't care about answering any phone calls, so he immediately reached out and cut off the phone.

But after the call was cut off, the other party immediately called again.

Cheng Qing was stunned, he had never seen such an uninteresting guy? Since everyone has already cut off the phone, it means that it is very inconvenient for people to answer your phone now, right? So why do you keep calling? So Cheng Qing was very impatient and cut off the phone again.

But something interesting happened, and the other party actually dialed it for the third time. Obviously, the more Cheng Qing doesn't answer this call, the more the other party wants to be like him. Cheng Qing was annoyed at this time: I am in charge of my call, and if I don't answer it, I won't answer it.

So Cheng Qing cut off the phone call that disturbed him in the middle of the night again and again, and what about the other party? The other party is really persistent, and he actually took the trouble to continue to dial over and over again.

So Cheng Qing's mobile phone kept vibrating and vibrating in the middle of the night, as if Cheng Qing was using his mobile phone to give his ass a midnight vibration massage. Cheng Qing was thinking, "What kind of person is this?" Who would be so uninteresting? Don't know if they're on vacation? I don't know if it's rare for people to come to Ao Bao to meet once a year? ”

However, the other party was really uninteresting, and he continued to call Cheng Qing's phone with perseverance.

When the phone began to shake Cheng Qing's ass again, and it had already shaken his ass and began to tickle, Cheng Qing finally couldn't bear it anymore. He knew he had to answer the call, and unless he turned it off tonight, the other party wouldn't stop and would keep hitting his phone.

So he decided to answer the call, and he decided to spray this uninteresting other party with a stinky fart.

"Baby, you wait for me first, this phone call has already shaken my ass, I'll find a quiet place to send the other party back and come back." Cheng Qing reluctantly let go of the girl's hand, and began to walk outside the crowd, and immediately yelled when he answered the phone.

"Hey, I said who are you? I don't care where you are, I'm only going to give you one chance to tell me who you really are, and then I'll..."

"It's me." A very calm voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Instructor?" Cheng Qing was immediately stunned.

"Well, it's me." The other party is still very calm.

"Oh my God, my instructor, in the middle of the night, the fairy wind blew your old man back from the sky to the earth?" Cheng Qing immediately teased with drunkenness.

"I just got on the ship and was about to fly back to the ground." The other party responded.

"You flew back to the ground? What are you flying back to the ground for? Isn't it all already announced? Aren't you ready to set sail? Cheng Qing asked puzzled.

"I'll fly to see Qi'er."

"Are you going to see Qi'er? Oh, I see, instructor, you're going to fly to Qi'er to make a formal resignation, right? Cheng Qing felt that he was really drunk, he had seen someone chase from the northern hemisphere to the southern hemisphere in order to chase the girl, but he had never seen someone like an instructor chasing from the near ground to the ground.

"What do you say? On behalf of the CNSA, I went to inform Qi'er in person that she had been allowed to board the ship. Who knows, the other party actually responded lightly.

"What?" Cheng Qing was cold, and he was a spirit: "Qi'er has been allowed to board the ship?" What does this mean? ”

"It didn't make sense, but the CNSA asked me to inform Qi'er that she had been allowed to board the ship." The other party thought that he didn't hear clearly, so he immediately repeated it again.

"Really?" Cheng Qing was another agitator, and he immediately felt that he had woken up.

"Thankfully, Qi'er finally got the qualification to board the ship." The other party responded to him with certainty.

"I said instructor, you have been calling me over and over again in the middle of the night, just to tell me this news about Qi'er?" Cheng Qing asked in disbelief.

"Isn't that right? You and Qi'er are both excellent students taught by me, and I think such a big thing should be known to you as soon as possible, so that you can also be happy for Qi'er and her efforts over the years..."

"But instructor, what about me..." Cheng Qinggang wanted to ask: What about me? Have I also been notified by the CNSA that I have been allowed to board the ship? However, the other party on the other end of the phone apparently did not intend to reserve any opportunity for him to ask this question.

"Okay, I finally got through to your phone and finally told you the good news about Qi'er. You'd love to hang up my electricity, don't you? Then you're hanging. The other party was about to hang up the phone, but at the end of the day, he didn't forget to tease him, "Oh, yes, it's midnight, and your Ao Bao meeting must have entered the final climax, right?" ”

"Instructor..."Cheng Qing's voice was already a little wrong, but he tried his best to endure it.

"Is this good news about Qi'er? I suggest you don't call her tonight, and although I estimate that she won't be able to sleep tonight, I'd better wait until I see her in person tomorrow morning, and then let her know in person...", the other party suggested with a light smile.

"But instructor, I..." At this time, Cheng Qing was already speechless, and he was about to go crazy.

Don't?

At this moment, Chengqing is not about to go crazy, what is it?

Because Cheng Qing knew very well that when the instructor started talking like this, it meant that the other party was ready to hang up his phone, which meant that he was really out of play.

However, why is there no drama for me? He remembered that his serial number was clearly ranked in front of Anqi, and according to the official process of automatic computer screening and supplementation, he should have a better chance of being rerecorded than Anqi, right?

However, why is there no drama for me?

It's not fair?

At this moment, the first thought that flashed into Cheng Qing's mind: Could it be that the instructor saw that he was about to set off, and he hadn't caught up with An Qi yet, so he pretended to be public and privately recorded An Qi, who was ranked after him?

Well, that's highly likely, isn't it?

Just when Cheng Qing was thinking about it, the other party had already said lightly on the other end of the phone in a tone that was about to close the line: "Then that's it, I'm ready to hang up the phone..."

"Oh....." Cheng Qing didn't know what kind of mood he was in to say this last "oh" response. He only felt that he had quickly fallen into the bottomless abyss the moment the other party said that he was ready to close the line, and then he kept falling, just like that.

Yes, the news that An Qi was allowed to board the ship was like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, instantly shattering all the beliefs he had worked for, insisted on, and longed for in the past fifteen years. Because he has always felt that he has a chance, as long as he has not officially set sail, he feels that he has a chance.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, since Anqi, who was ranked behind him in the serial number, had been notified that he had been allowed to board the ship, which meant that he had been skipped in the final round of selection, and he had lost this last chance.

Cheng Qing suddenly had an urge to cry, for himself, for the fifteen years of hard and outstanding years.

Then, that sense of loss hit him overwhelmingly, and it immediately swept his whole person and his whole heart. However, even though he was extremely disappointed, he still responded politely: "I wish you all the best, instructor, and I wish you a good night..."

Then, he waited for the other party to hang up the phone.

Yes, Cheng Qing has always maintained a good habit of waiting for the other party to hang up the phone first after every call. However, this midnight is destined to be an extremely unquiet midnight, and at the moment when Cheng Qingjing was waiting for the other party to hang up the phone, the other party suddenly said a word.

"Oh, yes, by the way, I forgot a little thing and I'd like to tell you by the way."

“？” Cheng Qing was stunned.

"The CNSA asked me to inform you by the way: you have been approved to board the ship." The other party was obviously desperately covering his mouth and snickering.

"@#%**@&......." Cheng Qing immediately became messy in the wind.

"........" The other party did not speak, obviously waiting for Cheng Qing's next reaction.

"Really....really?" At this moment, Cheng Qing couldn't believe his ears, his heart, which had fallen to the bottomless abyss, was suddenly shocked, and then immediately began to rebound. Then, he heard the other man say something in a calm tone.

"Oh, I'm not too embarrassed to tell you about such a small thing, but I'm afraid of disturbing your meeting tonight." Oh, the other party is clearly playing with him on purpose, and he is clearly cutting off the phone again and again before punishing him.

"Instructor, I..." But at this time, Cheng Qing was already choking.

Isn't?

In this short period of less than a minute, Chengqing's life has been up and down, this is really exciting, isn't it?

And just as Chengqing was rebounding from the full blood resurrection, another calm question came from the other end of the phone: "Hey, I said Chengqing, where did Kang Yingjun's little Wang Balamb die?" I heard that you two went on vacation together, but I kept calling him and no one answered..."

"Instructor, you're also looking for Yingjun?" Cheng Qing was immediately stunned again.

"That's not looking for him, is it? Is that little Wang Ba Lamb turned off? The other party seemed to be very angry.

"Instructor, don't hang up the phone yet, you wait for me, I'll go and call him..." Don't? As soon as he heard that the other party was looking for Kang Yingjun, he immediately reacted to what was going on.

So, Cheng Qing ran back. I saw that he rushed directly into the crowd of people who were dancing wildly, and directly rushed to a pair of men and women who were hugging and kissing each other, and directly stuffed the phone in his hand into the hand of the person whose male hormones were overflowing.

"Huh?" The two who were hugging and kissing each other were disturbed by Cheng Qing like this, and immediately screamed.

"Yingjun, you hurry up and answer the phone, hurry up and answer the instructor's satellite phone..."Cheng Qing excitedly pulled Kang Yingjun away, and shouted excitedly, because he was worried that the noisy crowd would drown out his voice.

"Instructor? Which instructor? At this time, Kang Yingjun was almost drunk, and he didn't react at all to what was going on. But the moment he picked up his phone, a familiar and majestic voice immediately came from the phone.

"Handsome, it's me."

"Instructor?" As soon as Kang Yingjun heard this voice, he immediately reacted to who it was, he looked at Cheng Qing in front of him, who was already so excited that he didn't want to, and knew that there must be something on the other end of the phone. So, he immediately put down the girl he was kissing, and immediately grabbed his mobile phone and walked out of the crowd.

Only the girl who was forcibly given a dream was left and didn't know what to do to stand alone by the campfire, and it was not to walk away, nor to stay.

Don't?

Isn't it just embarrassing? So the girl's tears fell uncontrollably.

However, Kang Yingjun, who had just left, quickly turned back, and at this time he was so excited that he was dancing. I saw Kang Yingjun pull up the girl who was crying, and while holding her tearful eyes and kissing her, he asked excitedly: "Hey, good baby, I have been allowed to board the ship, I love you, you love you, are you willing to give birth to a son for me?" ”

"Hmmm! Uh-huh! The girl was crying with joy, and she nodded excitedly and gave a passionate kiss in return.

And what about Chengqing at this moment?

Seeing this scene happening, Cheng Qing couldn't help laughing immediately, but just as he shook his head and turned around himself, he realized that the girl who met him was looking at him with pear blossoms and rain at this time? He immediately patted his head, and then stepped forward in three steps and two steps and took the girl's hand: "Go, baby, let's have a baby too..."

On this day, a lot of things happened, it was very noisy and special.

Someone, who has just lost his precious life.

Someone, who is indulging all night.

There are people who can't sleep all night.
