Chapter 10: The Wandering Trisolar

"Detail, lots of detail!" Chu Li grabbed a handful of sand from the ground and let the sand slowly fall from the palm of his hand.

At this moment, the touch of sand, the warm cool breeze, the uncertain stars in the sky, and the universe all seem to be close at hand.

Chu Li quietly looked at the three-body star in the three-body game for a while.

"Director Chu, what do you think of this game?" Shi Qiang asked.

"This game is not a simple game!" Chu Li said, he looked at the stars in the distance, and said, "I have read the report you submitted before, this planet is not fixed because the time and number of the sun rises, and it even seems to be completely random, no one can predict this time.

So normally, it is impossible for this planet to give birth to life, but the human beings on this planet have obtained the ability called dehydration by chance, so that after dehydration, the humans on this planet can give birth to civilization, but such a civilization is also extremely fragile and will be destroyed if you are not careful.

The humans on this planet seem to have been looking for a way, a way to predict the pattern of the sun, but they have not succeeded, so we gamers seem to be trying to assist the humans on this planet and find a way to keep civilization going, right? ”

Wang Miao nodded: "Not necessarily, it's just that we guessed like this, this game has no game guide, and a lot of content is hidden inside the game, so we can only wait for ourselves to discover and explore." ”

"That's hard." Chu Li said, glanced at the sky in the distance, and suddenly said, "It's coming soon." ”

When Shi Qiang heard this, he was a little strange, what is coming soon?

He looked in the direction where Chu Li was looking, and saw that in that direction, the sun actually appeared slowly, and the warm sunlight shone down, and everyone felt a burst of warmth.

Unfortunately, this warmth did not last long at all, and the sun deflected at an angle and quickly set from the other direction.

Chu Li had just come to the Three-Body Game Planet for a while, and the sun rose and fell, and the temperature also rose and fell.

It is conceivable what kind of living conditions the three-body people living in the three-body galaxy are.

And the three-body people born in such an extreme environment are also very emotionally indifferent, and it can even be said that there is no emotion at all.

These are completely two extremes from the human race on Earth, where humans have emotion, empathy, which is the basis for human unity.

In addition to humans, many other animals on the earth lack this mentality, such as monkeys that are very similar to humans, and the female monkey will often hold the baby monkey in her hand after the death of the baby monkey and not put it down for several days.

Ordinary people may think that this is actually the motherly love psychology of the female monkey, and they can't accept the fact that the baby monkey died, which is an emotion similar to that of humans, but the truth is just the opposite.

In foreign countries, special scholars have studied the behavior of animals such as monkeys, and found that although the existing female monkeys are holding the dead baby monkey, they have also observed that when the mother monkey drinks water by the lake, she will very indifferently put the dead baby monkey directly into the water.

This is definitely a very dangerous behavior for normal monkeys, which may cause the monkeys to drown.

If the mother monkey really has maternal affection for the little monkey, then she will never place the corpse of the little monkey, even the little monkey, so randomly.

Later, some people speculated that the mother monkey already knew that the baby monkey had died, and with the body of the baby monkey, maybe it was kept as a memorial or something?

After consulting nearby farmers, the scholars found that the body of the baby monkey in the hand of the mother monkey was not the child of the mother monkey at all, but was snatched from other mother monkeys.

It didn't care about the little monkey at all, it just thought it was a fun toy.

The results of this study may not fully indicate that the monkeys did not have empathy for their own kind, but at least it does show that their empathy is very low, and it is difficult for them to show fear of their dead kind.

Or rather, the monkey thinks that the baby monkey is not his own kind.

After all, monkeys are not juvenile creatures.

For example, humans, cats, and pandas are actually all juvenile continuations, so they will have special care for their young peers?

Chu Li thought about it for a while, the temperature of the three-body star had begun to get lower and lower, Wang Miao and Shi Qiang were talking and breathing, and a large amount of white mist condensed into ice crystals.

"What should we do, are we going to find a place to make a fire to keep warm?" Shi Qiang rubbed his hands and felt a little cold and shivering.

Chu Li said: "No need, I almost understand the situation in this world. ”

Hearing this, Shi Qiang and Wang Miao looked at Chu Li with a look of surprise, and heard Chu Li say: "The laws of the operation of this world, stars and planets, for some reason, may not be able to be found, so if the human beings in this world want to develop, it depends on luck, when this planet can stably orbit the sun for a period of time, then the civilization above can develop to a certain extent."

But this is only development, if civilization cannot transform itself, or transform the planet, then there is still no future......"

Just as Chu Li was talking, Shen Yufei also landed in the three-body game, she did not appear in front of Chu Li and the others, but hid behind the scenes, listening to Chu Li talk about his understanding of the three-body problem.

"Who is he?" Shen Yufei asked.

One after another other figures appeared around her, these people were all core members of the Earth Three-Body Organization, and they had been waiting for Wang Miao to appear in this game for a long time.

Wang Miao is an outstanding scientist, and if he can join the Earth Three-Body Organization, it will be very good for the organization.

So when Wang Miao first appeared in the Three-Body Game, most of the NPCs who appeared around him were actually pretending to be core members of the Three-Body Organization.

They have been investigating whether Wang Miaoshi is suitable to join their organization.

However, they didn't expect that Wang Miao brought another person into this game today, and this person seems to have a unique insight into the three-body problem?

Hearing Shen Yufei's question, no one around answered, only one member said: "It's not clear, this person has no identity information with us, and he may not be an internationally renowned scholar or an expert in other fields." ”

"Find a way to find out who this person is!" Shen Yufei said.

She is a member of the Three-Body Organization Salvation Faction, and her purpose is to solve the Three-Body Problem problem.

But there has been no answer to this question until now, and now, she seems to see an opportunity.

"Okay, we'll look into it later, but it's not very hopeful, you know why." The man said.

"Either way, you have to do your best to find out, even if it's just his identity!" Shen Yufei said, her expression was very flat, even if that person didn't investigate Chu Li's identity, it didn't matter, at most, she just asked her 'master', no matter what information, she could investigate it.

She wanted to know now, what would Chu Li do?

Wang Miao asked, "So the way is to change yourself, or change the environment?" ”

At this time, Chu Li nodded and said: "Yes, two ways, change yourself or change the planet, because of the random appearance of the sun, the environment on this planet changes from time to time, and it is difficult for civilization to continue to develop without a stable environment."

So there is only one change, one that allows the human constitution to adapt to changes in this environment, such as various genetic engineering, or a kind of unimaginable evolution. ”

Shi Qiang scratched his head and said, "What kind of evolution is unimaginable?" Can humans adapt to such extremely high or low temperatures? That's too hard! ”

"Actually, it's not that difficult, if you look at the humans in this game, haven't they also evolved the ability to dehydrate? If you continue to evolve, you will have the opportunity to evolve the ability to move and survive in extremely high or low temperatures. Chu Li said, in fact, the current Chu Li can already live normally on the three-body planet, no matter how the external environment changes.

Whether it is extremely cold or hot, Chu Li's possession of Yan Yan and Bai Yan can help him live a normal life on this planet, but if the Three-Body Civilization wants to evolve to the point where Chu Li, it is basically impossible to do it.

In the Zhongzhou team, in addition to Chu Li, Zheng Zha can also survive in this environment.

"The second way is to completely transform nature." Chu Li fiddled on the ground, he put a few stones on the ground, pointed and said, "These two are the sun, and this one is the planet under our feet." ”

"And what is this one?" Shi Qiang pointed and asked.

"This is the third sun!" Chu Li said.

"The third?" Shi Qiang looked surprised, "I, no, I've never heard of it!" "He thinks that there are two suns in this game, which is already outrageous, how can there be three?

Chu Li didn't speak, but Wang Miao next to him thought for a while, and then showed a look of sudden realization, he said: "Yes, I know, there are indeed three suns, no, three stars, this planet is actually under the gravitational pull of the three stars, constantly changing its orbit.

Sometimes it moves around one star, sometimes it moves around two stars, sometimes it moves around three stars, and sometimes it even moves away from three stars, which is the phenomenon of three flying stars that we heard about before!

Therefore, the appearance of three flying stars means that the planet is far away from the three stars, and it will take a long time for it to return to an orbit close to the three stars, and during this time, the incomparably cold will appear, and any civilization will be frozen. ”

"What if it orbits three stars? Isn't that three suns in the sky, I've never heard of this before? Shi Qiang asked, he is also familiar with several NPCs in this game, and there is a history on this planet, but there has never been a scene in history where three suns appear at the same time.

"Quite simply, if three suns appear at the same time, then the civilization on the planet will be completely destroyed, so there will be no historical record!" Wang Miao said.

This is the most plausible explanation, the system of three stars, which perfectly explains the series of strange sights that appear on this planet.

Chu Li observed, the game did not prompt him to unearth the secrets of the three-body galaxy, the game entered the next stage, and he also found that it was the members of the three-body organization of the earth who were hiding to prevent the development of the game.

Chu Li didn't mind, he continued: "The next way, to transform the planet, is when the civilization on this planet, if it is lucky enough to develop to a high enough level of technology, it can build a planetary engine on the planet.

It is also possible to install a planetary engine on the planet, and then use the planetary engine to take the planet out of the current galaxy and find a new star suitable for human life. ”

Chu Li said a wandering three-body star plan, and he didn't know if the three-body star could do this kind of thing, but even if it could be done, for the three-body people, it would be quite cost-effective to wander the three-body star to a suitable galaxy, and it would be far more convenient to spend four hundred years to conquer the earth.

As expected, Chu Li's plan caused a wide range of discussions among the Earth Three-Body Organization and the Salvation Faction.

Shen Yufei tried to inform her lord of this plan, and it took a long time for her to get an answer, and the answer was just three words, not cost-effective.

It's not that the Trisolarans can't do it, but it will waste a lot of resources to do so, and the resources on the Trisolaran are not necessarily enough.

It is also quite difficult to make a planetary engine that burns stones.

Later, Shen Yufei proposed a simpler plan, that is, to use the planetary engine to find a way to make the planet move regularly around a star, so as to avoid the problems that occur on the current trimaran star.

However, Shen Yufei's plan did not get the consent of the three-body people.

Then she came up with a third plan, which is to build a planetary engine on Mars and push Mars into a suitable orbit, so that the environment of Mars can be transformed and gradually become as suitable for Trisolarans as Earth.

After all, there are still hundreds of years before the Trisolarans come to Earth, and maybe by that time, the transformation of Mars has been completed, and at that time, human beings can coexist peacefully with the Trisolarans.

This plan is used as a backup plan by the Trisolaran.

Because the current human beings cannot make planetary engines on Mars, and it is still hundreds of years before the Trisolarans come to the earth.

Unless the Trisolarans give up the plan to occupy the earth now, and assist the earthlings through Zhizi to improve the scientific and technological level of the current earthlings, but it will directly conflict with the plan that the Trisolarans are now implementing.

However, Shen Yufei's plans are all for later.

After Chu Li said the two plans, he watched the three-body game for a while, and then went offline directly and began to discuss the new flying blade plan with Wang Miao.

In a few days, Chu Li determined the experimental plan with the help of Chu Xuan, and if the new flying blade material is successful, it will be a subversive material, not only with stronger toughness, but also as a normal temperature semiconductor material.

In that way, the project of controlled nuclear fusion can also greatly improve its practicality.
