With plenty of fuel, Xu Siqian boldly headed deeper into the desert.
Each step will be automatically updated on the electronic map and uploaded to Jasmine's hard drive.
Looking out from the car glass, nothing can be seen except windy sand and looming rocks.
She stopped at a narrow path surrounded by cliffs. Because it was completely blocked, there was almost no wind and sand on this section of the road, which was very suitable for repair.
She stood on a ladder and installed the small lighting blocks on both sides of the cliff with a cutting pick at intervals of three meters. After being connected in series, they were run by wind power on the top of the mountain.
It was already three hours after the installation was completed. Xu Siqian was surprised that his exoskeleton did not issue an overheating alarm as usual.
"Jasmine, what's going on with my exoskeleton? Has it been touched?"
She contacted Jasmine using a private channel.
"Xiao Qian, your exoskeleton was damaged when you came out of the lake that day. Qi Yu happened to be there, so I asked him if he could repair it."
"Okay, got it."
Xu Siqian was rarely convinced. Qi Yu was not completely powerless and only relied on his family background.
At least he is much better than her in mechanical repair and modification.
After resting for a while, Xu Siqian found the spot in the middle of the road and used a cutting pick to carve out a square cave of about twenty square meters on the left side of the cliff.
Not only did she install a door, she also buried a container of liquid oxygen underground.
In other words, after closing the door, she could take off her helmet and smoke a cigarette.
The lighting base was half on the outside and half on the inside of the door, illuminating the entire cave. Because Xu Siqian hadn't collected what she wanted yet, she was ready to take a nap before moving on.
The protective suit was enough to insulate her from the cold, so she curled up against the wall and fell asleep.
In the dream, she was hit by a big octopus on her face again. She couldn't breathe, and she felt suffocated.
"what's the situation!"
Fortunately, he didn't open his mouth. When he opened his mouth, he almost didn't breathe.
The wet breath hit his cheeks.
She opened her eyes suddenly, and saw a young humpback knocking open the door and staring at her curiously.
Xu Siqian quickly put on a helmet and touched the little camel's head with some reproach.
"You almost killed me, where are your parents?"
She knew there might be a creature here, but she never expected that it would be a humpback.
They are similar to camels and can live in extremely dry places. Their biggest feature is that they can store oxygen in the air and water.
It was first brought to Mars from the Andromeda Galaxy by high-level people.
Xu Siqian put the calf in the cart and searched for it in the valley for a long time. Their habitat should be nearby, but he couldn't find it.
Instead, we accidentally came across a huge stone. It was very tall, very pointed, and the point was a bit abrupt. It felt like a stalactite, which was in sharp contrast to the surrounding stones that were riddled with holes.
Xu Siqian approached the bracelet and the test showed that there should be some kind of metal hidden in it.
Under the shocked gaze of the little humpback, Xu Siqian turned the cutting pick to the highest setting, and the sparks caused by the cutting jumped everywhere.
Even so, it only removes the rocks attached to the outside.
But its true face of Lushan also appeared.
Just looking at the surface, the two colors of gold and silver are mixed together, and every little dot is closely next to each other.
But gold and silver definitely don't have such a high hardness. They should be some kind of undiscovered metal.
At the risk of the machine breaking, Xu Siqian scraped off a bit of it, put it in the toolbox on his arm, and went back to do some research.
Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered that she hadn't tried the signal here yet, so she climbed directly to the top of the metal stone and sent a distress signal to Earth's moon.
Unfortunately, the only answer she received was a slight signal failure.
In this way, after more than ten hours of trekking, Xu Siqian drove back to the spacecraft.
As soon as he stepped in, he saw that Qiyu was changing Jasmine's program.
"What are you doing! Are you crazy!"
She rushed in and pulled the man off the console. Before she took off her exoskeleton, the man was firmly pinned to the ground and unable to move.
"Don't get excited, let go first! Someone will die in a moment! They will go to the Interstellar Court!"
Xu Siqian let go of his hand and got up from him: "To put it bluntly, I can stay here for the rest of my life. If you want to leave, you can build your own airship."
Qi Yu didn't expect Xu Siqian to be so angry. After standing up, he put his pockets in his pockets and looked at her awkwardly.
"Jasmine? Are you okay?" Xu Siqian returned to the main interface and asked anxiously.
"The current condition is good, Xiao Qian doesn't need to worry."
"Why do you feel so weird? It really scares me to death."
"No, Xiao Qian, you will never die as long as I am here."
"Did he download some virus for you?"
Listening to Jasmine's tone, which sounded like the male protagonist of an idol drama was possessing her, Xu Siqian knew that Qi Yu must have touched something else.
"Qiyu, what did you do?!"
"Its language system has not been upgraded for at least ten years..."
"Xiao Qian, please stop arguing. I requested the upgrade."
Jasmine's tone was somewhat weak.
Sometimes being too smart is also a kind of cruelty to AI. Jasmine and Xu Siqian had complained before that other spacecraft systems had been fully upgraded, only they still stayed at the factory settings.
Xu Siqian didn't take it seriously, but he didn't expect it to ask for it on its own.
"Next time, just wait for formatting."
Xu Siqian hates upgrading because he is afraid that the AI will have too many artificial emotions, making it irrational and objective.
"Okay Xiao Qian, there won't be a next time."
Qiyu, who was relieved from the crisis, noticed the little camel lying obediently and a little drunk at the door.
"Steaming meat tonight? Not bad. As expected of Technician Xu, this is a rare delicacy in the world! Hahahaha...it hurts! Don't pinch me...hiss...just a joke, who doesn't know this is to protect animals, you Why do you always take my jokes seriously?"
Xu Siqian rolled his eyes, but was still forced to get used to Qiyu's existence. They each made dishes and ate dinner facing each other at the small table by the window.
This perspective provides a perfect view of Jupiter's moons and its unique sunset.
Qi Yu's head twitched and he suddenly said to Xu Siqian: "Don't you think it's romantic to watch the sunset on Jupiter with another person?"
Xu Siqian calmly put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "The last man I discussed romance with has become part of the Mars infrastructure. Do you also want to be part of the Jupiter infrastructure?"
Qi Yu's delicate eyebrows knitted together: "What do you mean? Have you killed someone? Just because he chased you?"
"You don't know about this. Didn't your colleagues in the department tell you? They all know."
"It's not really a murder, is it?" Qiyu's Adam's apple rolled, and he wanted to run away.
"How could I kill someone? He... Forget it. Go back to the moon as soon as possible and they will tell you."
In order to get Qiyu back as soon as possible, Xu Siqian did everything possible.
This really piqued Qi Yu's interest. While Xu Siqian was sleeping, he sneaked out of the room and typed on the screen to ask about Jasmine.
What Qi Yu didn't know was that all of this was synchronized to Xu Siqian's tablet by Jasmine.
Xu Siqian, who was reading the information, was disgusted by the pop-up window that suddenly popped up.
Qi Yu: "What do you mean that man became part of the Mars infrastructure? What does it mean?"
Xu Siqian pretended to be Jasmine and replied: "Xiao Qian won't let me tell you. So far, almost all the men who have approached her with more than pure purposes have been like that."
"Which what?!"
"I'm really sorry that I won't let you talk."
Xu Siqian successfully gave Qiyu a sleepless night.
