Chapter 1: The Mystery of the Moon

Next Chapter

Jiang Xun, known as a prodigy since he was a child, is only twenty years old this year, has finished his Ph.D., and what is even more enviable is that he broke the record and entered the space agency at the age of twenty, and is the youngest member in the history of the space agency.

"Fingerprint authentication passed!"

When night fell, Jiang Xun "secretly" came to the space base and successfully passed the verification.

He's ready to sneak to the moon.

"Twenty years."

Looking up at the starry sky, he had mixed feelings.

Twenty years ago, the base built by humans on the moon was destroyed overnight, and everyone lost contact, including his parents.

It has been reported in the news that the cause of the destruction of the base is most likely due to the failure of the nuclear power source, which led to a large explosion of the entire lunar base.

Only one unmanned spacecraft was not at the base before the explosion and was spared.

However, when the spacecraft returned to Earth, at the moment of landing, there was also an explosion, and the entire spacecraft was destroyed.

"Was the death of my parents really an accident?"

Jiang Xun whispered, suspicious of the space accident twenty years ago.

After decades of development, humans have been able to drive a spacecraft to the moon independently, which is undoubtedly a revolutionary step forward compared to the past.

It's just that since the accident at the moon base 20 years ago, many countries have explicitly banned it and are no longer allowed to go to the moon.

"Why are they banning humans from landing on the moon, what the hell is going on on the moon?"

"Also, what is the mystery of the far side of the moon?"

At present, humans have been able to easily land on the far side of the moon, but there are still many mysteries waiting to be explored and uncovered on the far side of the moon.

"The moon is a hollow sphere with a solid metal shell, always with only one side facing the Earth, and glass on it, which ...... It's like a giant camera! ”

He was stunned by his surprise thoughts, and his hairs stood on end for a moment.

"If that's really the case, isn't that okay...... It's like humans are being kept in captivity by some kind of creature, and the moon is just "it" a machine used to monitor humans? Thinking about it carefully, Jiang Xun shook his head, and a cool air rose in his heart.

"Ding."

The mobile phone rang suddenly, Jiang Xun took out his mobile phone, and saw a message pop up: "Dude, did you succeed?" ”

"All the best!" Gu Lingfeng smiled and replied to the message.

It was Lu Ming who sent the message, his best friend, and he was able to successfully "smuggle" the space center thanks to his help.

"I've got some information from the old stuff, you can take a look, it might help you."

He opened the file, just glanced at it and was stunned.

As mentioned above, the unmanned spacecraft seems to have brought back some kind of mysterious substance from the moon.

"Detected from the object brought back...... Unknown factor that is not in the existing periodic table? ”

"And, it's exactly what it is...... Caused the spaceship to explode?! ”

Jiang Xun was stunned and felt incredible, you must know that most of the construction of the spaceship uses titanium elements, which can withstand the huge friction caused by the air at high speed, but the spacecraft still exploded due to this unknown factor?

Previously, he had also tried to investigate the specific cause of the ship's explosion, but the answer he got was surprisingly consistent, it was a sudden failure.

"How much energy does this have?"

Jiang Xun muttered, deeply shocked, and the content described in the document subverted his cognition.

"Ding, the spacecraft has completed self-inspection, confirm safety!"

A mechanical voice came from inside the cabin, interrupting his musings.

"Please check if there is a fire."

The opportunity was not easy to get, and he didn't think much about it, so he pressed the confirmation button.

Twenty years, for as long as he can remember, he has been thinking about going to the moon all the time.

"Boom"

The spacecraft ignited, and there was a lot of noise, and the ground was shaking, which naturally alarmed the base's security personnel.

"Who is going to the moon without permission? Stop him! "Someone turned pale.

"Team leader, I'm afraid it's too late, the spaceship has already lifted off!" The man looked at the starry sky and shook his head.

"Quick, call him! Three days ago, an anomaly was detected in the orbit of the moon, and at this time the moon landing was not sent to death! ”

However, it was too late, and the ship lifted off with a rumbling sound, and it was moving away at breakneck speed.

Looking down from the spacecraft, the parent star seems to be wrapped in a layer of mist, gray, except for the occasional brilliant light that dots the night sky like starlight.

"What's that?"

From the spaceship, you can see that a streamer suddenly flashes from the home star, like an aurora, and like a firework that is extremely brilliant and then quickly withered.

"It sank into the Kunlun Mountains?"

According to the image data provided by the satellite cloud image, the "streamer" flashed and finally disappeared into the Kunlun Mountains, as if it was absorbed by something.

Kunlun, also known as Kunlun Xu, has been known as the first immortal mountain in the world since ancient times, the ancestor of ten thousand mountains, and is the birthplace of Chinese myths and stories for thousands of years.

He noticed that not only Kunlun, but also in Buzhou Mountain, Penglai Mountain, and Yingzhou, there were streamers flashing.

"What happened, is this a miracle?" Jiang Xun was puzzled and imagined.

Whether it is Kunlun, Buzhou, or Penglai and Yingzhou, they all occupy an extremely important position in ancient Chinese myths and stories, and they are a kind of spiritual symbols, and they all have endless legends.

"It doesn't seem possible!"

He swallowed hard, for thousands of years, the existence of "gods" had been falsified, and the characters in myths and legends were just beautiful visions in the hearts of people at that time.

He laughed to himself, put away his thoughts, and in a few hours the ship would be in a certain orbit, and there was no room for error.

Twenty years later, the rapid development of science and technology, especially in the space industry, has made revolutionary advances, and the distance from the Earth to the moon has been shortened by less than a day.

The spacecraft travels at great speed, and you can see the bright galaxy, countless star chains like gorgeous heavenly rivers across the sky, and in the deepest part of the starry sky, eternal silence has become the main theme, where there is no trace of light, as if time is still.

"The spacecraft will be in orbit with the moon in 30 minutes"

After a simple operation, Jiang Xun began to take a nap, the whole process is the spaceship flying autonomously, he can not be said to be unambitious, you know, the depths of the starry sky are not calm, there are endless dangers, if you encounter an interstellar storm, let alone just a small spaceship, even the largest interstellar armor will be torn to pieces.

When he opened his eyes again, the spacecraft was already flying around the moon in a specific orbit, and through the string window, he could see that there were many large and small craters on the surface of the moon, and he didn't know how many thousands of years had existed.

On the other side of the moon, there are many black areas that some say used to be a body of water, but it has dried up over the years.

Of course, there are also those who believe that it is not a body of water at all, but a huge solidification pool of ancient basalt lava.

But no matter what kind of inference is made, people can only imagine that the moon has existed for an extremely long time, not to mention hundreds of millions of years? For that period of time, it is difficult to fully discover the truth with the current level of human technology.

The insect's song is not more than autumn, and human beings are only a hundred years old, and a sea of stars can easily start from hundreds of millions of years from its origin to its demise.

Facing the universe and looking up at the starry sky, human beings are too small after all.
