Chapter 218 The barren world

Here is a vast and deserted light yellow coarse sand and a sea of ​​gravel.

Rocks, large or small, lying lifelessly among piles of coarse sand and gravel.

If you can be in this place and look around, it will be like entering the most primitive wilderness, full of desolation and lifelessness.

Most of the time, it is quiet, so quiet that it makes people suffocate. Only occasionally, a whirlwind rolls up a pillar of yellow sand and slowly rises into the sky.

This makes the surroundings appear quieter and more desolate.

The whirlwind is not always so docile. If it encounters strong winds, it will fly sand and stones, and the strong wind will roar and shake the sky and the earth. Everything from far to near is like thousands of horses galloping, with a powerful battle formation, ghosts crying and wolves howling, and the wind constantly pounces on the sand and stones, and the momentum seems to destroy the entire world under its tyranny.

I don’t know how long it took, but the wind stopped.

At this time, an extremely bright orange disc was hanging in the cheerful sky. In addition to this orange disc, another brighter disc often appears in the sky. If you look at the sky carefully, you can often find another bright spot in the sky.

After saying goodbye to the strong wind, there was no trace in the sky, and the whole world became quiet again.

After the strong wind blowing, the slightly fine sand and dust had been blown away, leaving only a large number of thick gravels, covering the ground in pieces, forming a gravel desert.

In the gravel desert that stretches through the sky, sometimes there will be huge rocks that decorate it, making the entire gravel desert appear more three-dimensional.

The wind blows invisible, but it carves a sculpted material. Over the years, the rocks in the gravel desert gradually form strange rocks with strange edges and different shapes under the abrasion of sand carried by the strong wind.

These strange stones are of different sizes and have experienced the vicissitudes of time and are full of the momentum of wind and clouds. They are simply amazing and can be regarded as masterpieces of the natural world.

In the vast world of gravel desert, it is not always unchanged. The chunks of uneven sizes of Yongquan oasis are scattered all over the world.

Every oasis is formed by replenishing groundwater. There is indeed rainfall, but it seems that it was a long time ago.

In the middle of a slightly smaller oasis, there is a bay of light blue lake lying quietly.

The lake is surrounded by many unknown green plants, greedily sucking the water seeping from its feet.

Looking further to the outskirts of the oasis, there were also gravels all over the way, but these gravels looked quite different.

This is not an ordinary stone, it is a kind of "stone" that has grown for tens of millions of years.

In fact, these "stones" are the crystals of a plant. They often grow in groups on the edge of the oasis. If one of them dies, all the other plants will slowly wither. Finally, their bodies will become "stones", without life but will never wither.

The ninth and seventh month after Earth's Eyes left Earth, that is, the fourth and tenth month after Earth's spacecraft left.

The Earth Eye Project Command Center finally received good news from Earth Eye.

"Team leader, it's successful!!" A young scientist from an extraterrestrial civilization project team shouted excitedly at the analysis of the picture in the communication system.

"What succeeded?!"

Durunik, the current leader of the extraterrestrial civilization project team, seems to have had a premonition these days. Although he has not seen it with his own eyes, after hearing the shouting, the stones that have been hanging in his heart finally landed on the ground.

"The Earth's Eye has successfully slowed down, and now it has entered the orbit of Alpha Centauri!" The young scientist continued to shout excitedly.

"Let me see!" Durunik sat in front of the computer, staring at the screen intently.

Last week, he had just celebrated his 37th birthday, which was a year to go straight to forty. The years and high-intensity research have quietly dyed his hair a little white.

His eyes gradually faded away from his former youthful recklessness, but replaced by a hint of perseverance and calmness.

"The Earth Eyes really slowed down successfully!!!" After getting the conclusive news, Durunik suddenly couldn't suppress his mood. "It has been nearly 10 years since we sent the Earth Eyes to leave together. Chinese, you should have known this news a year and a half ago."

Durunik raised his head, then closed his eyes tightly, and a hand brushed through his eyes silently.

After a while of silence, he opened his eyes and began to assign work: "Every day after tomorrow, everyone is busy. Through the Earth's Eyes, everything we see next is crucial."

A month later, Hara Kazuchen, Smith and Lynn welcomed their fifth awakening after hibernation.

This time, Yuan Shichen took an hour and a half to climb out of the dormant compartment safely.

In the same case, Smith of the Action Team took 6 hours, while Lynn's condition was even worse, and it took nearly 8 hours to recover his basic mobility.

"I feel like a zombie crawling out of the grave!" Lin En was in a little depressed.

"Don't say that, we'll be there after four more times." Smith comforted him.

"Keep a good attitude and too much negative thinking is also unfavorable for your health." Harashiki Kazuki patted his shoulder and continued, "You are an outstanding representative who stands out from millions of earthlings. I believe we will successfully reach the Alpha Centauri system."

"You are right. In the distant universe, we cannot get sick. We must ensure a healthy body." Lynn tried to show a smile and nodded in response.

"This month everyone must consume more nutrients, drink more water, and do more exercise," Yuan Shichen explained.

"Okay! I understand."

As expected by Nakaki Chen, Su Xing still had no news about whether Chen Shuqin entered deep dormant this time.

This time, the news about my parents was sent two and a half years ago.

"Son, my mother has been thinking about it for a long time, but she still doesn't want to lie to you. Although the country and the alliance are doing their best to treat Shuqin, her condition is getting worse and worse. She just completed a major operation these two days, and she is still in a coma and has not woken up." The mother's voice sounded very sad, which made Yuan Shichen's heart collapse several times.

The father held his mother's hand tightly and took the sentence: "Child, we must have confidence. We have been waiting for your reply. You must take good care of yourself."

At this moment, Yuan Shichen's heart was really messy.

He knew that what should come will come, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to!!

Now, he just wants to sleep immediately, and then think about nothing, and he will receive the long-awaited answer when he wakes up next time.

Of course, it may also be a bad news that he cannot accept.
