We do have specially grown spaceships, no meat, all meat is synthesized from plants. Su Meng calmed down and explained.
How many spaceships do you need for planting? Gong Yun asked curiously.
In fact, we are not always sailing. Every once in a while, we will find a planet to establish a base for production, and when the reserves are almost enough, we will set off again. Su Meng explained.
Oh, how many of you are there? Gong Yun used chopsticks to stir the noodles in the pot.
When I left, there were still hundreds of thousands. I heard that many people died when my predecessors just left the earth. At that time, there were always boatloads of dead people. A solution was found later, and we call that period the Dark Ages.
Hundreds of thousands? Gong Yun shook his head. As far as he knew, there were more than just these people who escaped from the earth.
So what was the reason why so many of you died in the first place?
It's nothing, just because of the lack of understanding of the space environment, the shells of those spacecraft were too thin when they left the earth, and many cracks appeared as soon as they entered the void of the universe. If it hadn't happened to encounter a group of abandoned spaceships, all the fleeing humans at that time would have been wiped out. Our current spaceships are imitations of those spaceships. Su Meng explained.
Picked up a lot of spaceships? Gong Yun asked suspiciously. It was hard for him to believe that this thing could be picked up.
Well, according to the record, that's it, not long after we left the solar system. For unknown reasons, the originally good spacecraft began to have cracks, and a large amount of gas in the cabin leaked, causing the life support system to be overwhelmed.
Just when we were about to become extinct, we encountered a group of spaceships that no one wanted. This is what is written in the history books. There is no record of what the situation was at that time. Su Meng added.
Gong Yun poured the noodles into Su Meng's jar. He knew very well that those spaceships were definitely sent by the civilization that helped humans on Earth, otherwise it would not have been such a coincidence. But why do they just do it this way? Could it be said that they cannot afford to offend this civilization that is destroying the earth? Are you pitiful about earth civilization?
Won't you eat some? Su Meng looked at Gong Yun who was just drinking soup and asked.
I've already eaten it. It belongs to you. Now that I have met you, I can only save it for you, and I will take that. Gong Yun pointed to a python that had a lot of meat cut off.
Sorry, I'm dragging you down. Su Meng said embarrassedly.
It's okay. Now that you're back, use your expertise to revitalize humanity. Then maybe we can go to the stars to find our people back. Gong Yun responded calmly.
How can it be that easy? The starry sky in the universe is so empty that I don’t even know where I am. How can I find it? Su Meng sighed.
There will be a solution then. Gong Yun smiled.
Su Meng looked up at the sky, her expression full of sadness. Even if she could, she didn't know when she would have to wait. It’s not certain that they will still be around by then. Maybe they were gone four hundred years ago?
Ignore him and just work hard. Gong Yun looked at the sad Su Meng and comforted her.
Yes, it feels good to survive and return to Earth, and it would be even better to meet you, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to survive even if I come back. Will you always protect me, or will you leave when I get to the Black Sea base? Su Meng asked anxiously.
What do you hope? Gong Yun asked probingly.
Do you believe in fate? If we are destined to cross the starry sky, we can meet across time and space. I have lived for thirty years. Ever since I was sensible, I have been living in the shadow of fear. I don’t know which day I will be abandoned in the cold space, drifting in the endless darkness, never ending. It kept drifting. None of us knows when we will die. Therefore, we must have our own value. Only by having value can we get better treatment and enable our loved ones around us to survive.
So I worked hard and studied day and night. However, the greater my ability, the less powerful I became, and the more I knew, the more afraid I became. A spaceship in the starry sky is like a big coffin. When I have nothing to do, I just look at the universe through the small porthole and see the stars in the distance.
Later, I began to imagine that a big hand suddenly appeared in this dark world, broke the coffin that led me to death, and then took me to the legendary paradise.
However, what I was waiting for was the wheel of destruction. The coffin was smashed, but no one could pull me into heaven. At that time, we had no supplies and only so much food.
So we chose hibernation and set an impossible destination for the spacecraft. The spacecraft's computer shows that it will only take a few decades for us to return to the legendary paradise.
But Huang Ri and I both knew that that data was wrong. When we ate the last bit of food and entered the hibernation cabin, we had already said goodbye to life.
But my sleeping cabin seemed to be broken. I just woke up after a blur, but I found that I was once again locked in a coffin, and I couldn't get out even though I tried my best. But that big hand appeared and broke the coffin. Then I discovered that heaven had really arrived, and it was a god-like man who saved me.
Four hundred years later, I actually slept for four hundred years. Four hundred years later, the big hand I fantasized about countless times really existed. He literally broke the coffin that bound me. do you know? To me that big hand was the hand of my imaginary lover. I am a lost soul, I am looking for him, and he is looking for me. I imagine that he will be able to find me, and then break the darkness to save me.
They said I had a mental problem and refused to join the research ship, so I had to work as a maintenance worker. But now I know, I'm mentally okay, you finally found me. Su Meng looked at Gong Yun foolishly and said.
Gong Yun wordlessly reached out and touched the top of her head. He knew that this was the imagination of a woman living in helplessness and fear. It's normal to have paranoia in that kind of environment, but what happened next was a bit of a coincidence.
You won't abandon me, right? Will you always protect me? Su Meng asked expectantly.
Of course, I will always protect you as long as you want. Gong Yun smiled kindly. What else could he do at this time? She is not the only one he wants to protect?
After hearing these words, he finally understood why she was indifferent to his exposure. Because whether it was a coincidence or some other reason, he did cater to her fantasy. In her imagination, this is how they should be.
But it doesn't matter. With her abilities, she will definitely become the best among all humans, and she will do her best to protect her. There is no difference. .
