Earth Era

The information left by the head of Keller let Wei Feng know a lot of things, but at the same time it also left Wei Feng with some doubts. One of the most obvious ones is, who is the so-called wise old man? Why did he have the ability to travel to the South Gate II galaxy hundreds of years before the implementation of the Lonely Island Project? Did he take the same hibernation voyage as himself? If not, how is his lifespan explained? Or, the simplest question, all the doubts that exist in him can actually be summed up in this one doubt, that is, is he really an earthling?

It seems that if he is regarded as an alien with super technology, all the doubts that exist in him will be solved, but if so, some new doubts will also spread, that is, why is an alien Will technological aliens have a connection with human civilization? What is his attitude towards human civilization? What is the purpose?

From the statement of the head of Keller, Wei Feng can probably confirm one thing, that is, this so-called intelligent old man is quite kind to the human civilization of the earth, which can be seen from the fact that he reminded the human government about the dead knot in advance, and at the same time , Wei Feng has reason to believe that the mysterious flashes he observed in the Nanmen two galaxies were created by this so-called intelligent old man, and the purpose was to send some information to the earth, which undoubtedly proved that he of goodwill.

With "goodwill" as a premise, many things become much clearer. The words "you can come here" seem to mean that he has some agreement with the human civilization government of the earth before departure, but there is one thing that needs to be paid attention to. That is, Führer Keller did not mention this in the reserved message. to this. Wei Feng has reason to think. This is in the passage of hundreds of years, and in the constant change of heads of state, the relevant information of this agreement may be lost.

Head of State Keller believes that the wise old man is also due to the dead knot, because the Martian civilization may have left the key scientific data in the Nanmen two galaxies, and Wei Feng also thinks so. So, under this premise, what do the seven words "you can come here" represent?

The first possibility. There may be some kind of danger in the Second South Gate Galaxy. The wise old man has already foreseen it in advance, so he arrived at the Second South Gate Galaxy and solved the danger. Then the human civilization government can send forces to the Second South Gate Galaxy and retrieve it. Those key scientific data that may exist.

The second possibility is that the retrieval of key scientific data requires certain preparations, and these preparations can only be solved by the wise old man, so the preparations are being done. After making it possible to "retrieve key scientific data", he sent a message back to the civilized government. You can send someone here.

In addition, there are some other possibilities, but the possibility is much lower. For example, the wise old man needs to do some things in the South Gate Two Galaxy, and he does not want these things to be noticed by the human civilization government. . But Wei Feng was keenly aware of one thing, that is, no matter what kind of possibility, it seems to imply one thing, that is, the wise old man has no plans to return to the solar system and return to the earth.

This inference casts a mysterious halo around this so-called wise old man, and at the same time adds a little credibility to the point that "the wise old man is not a life on Earth, but a member of an alien super-technological civilization". Because obviously, if the wise old man is not from the earth, he will not return to the earth.

It is precisely because of this that the wise old man will let the earth send someone to retrieve those things, instead of sending those things back himself.

But this inference is also contradictory. Because this inference is somewhat inconsistent with the technological strength mastered by the wise old man. There are two arguments for this contradiction. The first is that although the earthlings do not have the strength to communicate directly with the earth from the Nanmen 2 galaxy, for example, according to the original plan, after Wei Feng reaches the Nanmen 2 galaxy, Wei Feng will completely Lost the ability to send information to the solar system because the distance is too far, but is there no way for the wise old man who has mastered super technology? If he has a way, why not send a signal directly to Earth to send back that scientific data? Why is even a simple message like "you can come here" sent through a gamma-ray flash that is extremely backward and complex by comparison?

The second argument is that Führer Keller said that the wise old man had set off hundreds of years ago, and Wei Feng received the abnormal flashes in the Nanmen two galaxies about three hundred years after he left the earth. These two The time adds up to five or six hundred years, and Wei Feng has reason to believe that the wise old man spent at least three or four hundred years on sailing during these five or six hundred years. If they come, the speed of the spaceship that the wise old man is riding should be similar to that of the Xinghai spaceship. But in this case... doesn't this also mean that the wise old man has not mastered super technology far beyond human civilization?

Wei Feng thought about it, but none of these contradictions could be resolved. As a last resort, Wei Feng had to temporarily put these things behind his head. Wei Feng thought that as long as this so-called wise old man was well-meaning, he would not pose any threat to himself. After all, his main task is to bring back the super technology left by the Martian civilization, not to investigate the life experience and origin of the wise old man.

But in this case, another serious problem is placed in front of Wei Feng. That is... the remaining fuel on the Xinghai spacecraft is only enough to decelerate once and sustain life for a period of time. After the Weifeng arrived at the Nanmen 2 galaxy and slowed down and stopped, there was no fuel left to leave the Nanmen 2 galaxy and return to the solar system.

And Wei Feng also does not have radio communication equipment with enough power, and cannot directly send messages to the earth from the Nanmen two galaxies. So... even if Wei Feng finally succeeded in obtaining key scientific data, how should Wei Feng bring them back to Earth? What's the use of getting those things if you can't bring them back to Earth?

This question made Wei Feng fall into deep worry.

The means of transmitting information by means of gamma-ray flashes are not applicable in this case. Because it can only transmit some extremely simple information, and the key scientific data that may be left by the Martian civilization must be extremely huge. How can it be possible to transmit so much data back in this way? Besides, the solar system at this moment has been caught in the chaos of war. Even if Wei Feng has the ability to take this method, how could someone on the earth look specifically at the second direction of the South Gate to receive information?

This seems to be another dead knot, a dead knot that cannot be broken.

Wei Feng fell into a long period of thought. Wei Feng knew that his life or death was actually irrelevant. The most important thing was that he must, must send these scientific data back to Earth. Because without these things, human civilization will fall into extinction. These scientific data are the only elixir to save human civilization.

There was silence in the control room, and after the message left by Führer Keller was played, no one in the control room spoke. Although it was time for hibernation now, Ye Luo didn't say anything to remind Wei Feng, perhaps because he saw that Wei Feng was thinking all the time.

Wei Feng had been so quiet for several hours. After a few hours, Wei Feng's frowning brows suddenly relaxed. Wei Feng stood up from his seat, then stretched lazily: "Ye Luo, can I drink some water before hibernation?"

Ye Luo replied, "It's not allowed to eat before hibernation, but you can drink water, as long as you don't drink too much, it doesn't matter."

"Okay, bring me a glass of water." Wei Feng said.

The push-type robot brought a glass of water to Wei Feng. Wei Feng picked up the water glass, took a sip, and said, "Ye Luo, I have a solution."

Ye Luo immediately said: "Is it about the way to send the possible scientific data back to Earth?"

Wei Feng nodded: "Yes, I figured out a way to send this data back."

Ye Luo immediately said again: "This is impossible, unless you can think of a way to get enough fusion fuel from the Nanmen two galaxies. According to the data we have obtained so far, this is basically impossible. Nanmen There are no gaseous planets in the two galaxies, and even if there are gaseous planets, we don't have the tools to collect fusion fuel."

Wei Feng shook his head with a faint smile: "No~www.readwn.com~ We don't need any help from the outside world. The method I've come up with doesn't require any additional supplies."

"It's impossible." This is the third time Ye Luo has said the word impossible. "Our fuel is running out, and it is impossible for these fuels to support us returning to the solar system."

"But the truth is, I really thought of a way, and I'm 100% sure that my solution is feasible." Wei Feng said with a smile, then picked up the water glass and drank the water, then turned and walked towards Hibernation room: "Yes, the way to return to the solar system without getting external supplies... I thought of... Ye Luo, you don't need to wonder what my way is now. When needed, I will naturally Here's how. Now... I'm going to hibernate."

Ye Luo was silent for a while, and did not continue to ask Wei Feng what the solution was, but said, "Okay Captain, the hibernation equipment has been prepared for you."

Wei Feng lay quietly in the hibernation cabin, and then closed his eyes again. (To be continued...)
