Chapter 95

The engineering team has two main tasks this time. The first is to evaluate the current environment of the three planets that were bombed by Prince Gloria. The second is to repair the old interstellar transport routes and overhaul the jump points. At the same time, In times of war, safety is also the first priority. Their initial plan is to deploy multiple military fortresses in the eighth galaxy. In this way, if an accident occurs at any point on the waterway, after quickly calling the police, there will be the nearest military fortress to jump to immediately. Arrive there, and there will no longer be a long-distance rescue delay of fourteen hours. Under the current situation of very limited armed armaments and troop size, the preliminary planning and design must be very precise, so Captain Elizabeth Turan of the Guard personally accompanied him.

　During the continuous space operations, everyone from the security personnel to the engineering team members turned pale.

　On the way back, Captain Turan's furious voice sounded over the mecha's radio: "Teacher Lu, the mecha's steering positioning is not in contact right now. What's going on? What did you do to my little baby last night? Mechas on the way, you guys You dare to use your hands and feet, are you crazy because of your dissatisfaction?"

　Lu Bixing emerged from the small bedroom on the second floor of the cabin and reprimanded several students with a serious face: "White, are you two! You are in trouble again, why don't you be happy? Go help!"

　White: "..."

　The primary school term for several of them was extended because Lu Bixing believed that the concept of "junior mecha" was very practical.

　The night before, the mecha piloting rights were transferred to Lu Bixing. Teacher Lu, a brave and talented person, supported the mental network by himself and asked the students to dismantle the mecha's power system and main control board, and analyze the mecha's driving conditions on the spot. Halfway through the analysis of the human-computer interaction device, Lin Jingheng connected to the mecha contact terminal for something. Teacher Lu's on-site teaching was immediately interrupted. The teacher was so lustful that he temporarily skipped class and threw the disassembled mecha to four half-hearted students. .

　The teacher had no choice but to bear the blame. Fighting Cock covered White's mouth from behind and led the expressionless dead man away.

　Lu Bixing straightened his collar like a pedestrian and came to the small bar. He nodded to Hope who was watching the excitement: "These kids are getting more and more courageous now. I can't control them anymore. It's ridiculous."

　Hope - —The former prophet of the Anti-Ukrainian Society is also on this mecha.

　Lin Jingheng and the others were able to safely retrieve the antibodies to the mutant rainbow virus. This magician took the greatest credit. Even under the alliance's legal system, if the merits and demerits were balanced, they could still be exempted. Of course, he could no longer be imprisoned.

　For the time being, Hope has no intention of returning to rebel against the Uprising and causing harm to the world. At the same time, he also knows that people like Lin Jingheng cannot be expected to have any gratitude. General Lin may let him go on the surface, but he may die a violent death one day. So Hope proposed bailing out some anti-URA believers who had never done any bad things and voluntarily accept strict supervision. Except for taking a shower and going to the toilet, they would be followed by electronic cameras. Place orders. And he used his expertise to manage ecological agriculture, which is similar to labor reform.

　The environmentally friendly ecological agriculture of the Anti-Ukrainian Society is at a very high level, with unique production efficiency and product quality. The first thing that the Eight Star Systems have to solve is the problem of food and clothing. This time, Hope is taking the inspection of the first batch of crops. The samples are sent back to Daystar for quality inspection.

　Hope smiled without exposing him, and took out a slightly turbid glass bottle: "Home-brewed wine, unfiltered, doesn't look very good, tastes okay, would you like to try it?"

　Lu Bixing accepted it readily - the route map showed that they were far away from each other. Daystar Base is less than a day away. Ever since One-Eyed Eagle and the others were ambushed, a series of events made him run around non-stop. He was busy with construction, and Lin was suspected of being an armed member of the Free Corps. The two people's itineraries had been going wrong, and he had not seen each other for a long time. Lin Jingheng himself was so excited that he wanted to hum a song on the spot. Even if Hope poured him a glass of foot-washing water, he could still drink it happily, let alone a glass of home-brewed wine that didn't look good.

　As soon as he took it in his mouth, he realized that it tasted very special, and it was actually pretty good. Lu Bixing was a lively and outgoing person, and he never hesitated to express his appreciation: "Why does it taste so good? Are there any more?"

　"Different bacteria, different grains, subtle Changes in the environment will produce a different taste, and every bite is unique," Hope said with a fairy air, "I still have some, but the taste may be slightly different from this bottle, if you don't mind "Here, I'll give you two bottles when I get back."

　As long as he opens his mouth, Hope will spin around to sell his views on every punctuation mark. He can turn small talk into preaching if he doesn't pay attention. He is also a talent.

　Lu Bixing pretended not to understand the meaning behind his words: "It doesn't matter. I grew up taking nutritional ointments and my tongue is not that tricky."

　Hope nodded: "Although nutritional ointments and nutritional injections hinder people from tasting delicious food, they It has indeed saved many people's lives. "

　In fact, nutritional creams and nutrients are healthier for the human body. They are ideal meal replacements in places such as the military that require high physical fitness, but it does forcefully change human nature. Eating habits have always been criticized by food lovers and technology critics. Lu Bixing did not expect that the "prophet" of the Anti-Ukrainian Society could accept meal replacements, and looked up at him in surprise.

　"Do you think we are all lunatics who oppose social development?" Hope laughed, but then he sighed, "It makes sense for you to think so. There are indeed many people in the organization who are like this. They rebel in order to oppose technology. Technology never explores the logic behind it. When something abandons the basic ideological system, it will easily change when it goes to extremes."

　Lu Bixing didn't know what to say - isn't the Anti-Ukrainian Society an extreme cult organization?

　"At the beginning, we just wanted people to stop, reflect on themselves, and not be ruined by their own arrogance and impulsiveness," Hope said seriously. "Human civilization seems to be impregnable, but in fact it is like a leaky ship on all sides. "It's a broken ship. If you don't keep vigilance at all times, it will slide into the darkness and the abyss with abandon."

　Lu Bixing nodded in agreement: "Like now."

　"Like now," Hope said, "The great interstellar era, the great Garden of Eden. The Internet devours people's souls, and the great interstellar hyperspace heavy armor can be loaded with weapons that can destroy an entire planet. Everyone is fighting, and everyone is heading for destruction. If you look at these people with different positions, they will eventually fall into the sand. "This is why we oppose weapons of mass destruction, over-intervention in the transformation of nature, and over-reliance on artificial products."

　Lu Bixing took another sip of rice wine. It was the first time he drank this hand-brewed wine, and it was very mild in the mouth. , it sinks into the stomach but has great texture, and a layered warm feeling spreads out. The aftertaste is not perfect, a bit bitter, but it makes it more special.

　Hope said: "How great the Alliance's Declaration of Freedom was. In less than three hundred years, a mortal's life has not passed, and we are now in this situation. Why? Doesn't it have anything to do with the Garden of Eden? As soon as the Garden of Eden was destroyed, someone immediately targeted it. It spreads drugs, and I heard that it has spread to the eighth galaxy, and many people will be killed in the future. Isn't this the crystallization of human wisdom? We have heard the bells of hell, but we still don't know how to repent and continue to slide down. It's true that there are some crazy people in the organization who have the power of speech, but isn't the Alliance crazy? Isn't Eden crazy? You can't think that they are normal just because they have many crazy people and are loud.

　" Lu Bixing nodded noncommittally, "Maybe you are right, maybe you are wrong, maybe in the future, in this period of history we are living in, you have a short period of foresight, but in a longer period of time, you have I have become a short-sighted person ridiculed by future generations. Along the long river of history, I see different scenery from every angle. I don't know if I should agree with you, because I can live for two or three hundred years. It's amazing, even this life and death are not enough to verify a conclusion."

　Hope: "You are so humble."

　"There's no way," Lu Bixing spread his hands, "My job is to keep trying and making mistakes, keep getting excited about new ideas, and then deny them on my own during the trial and error process. Over time, my views on "right and wrong" will become more conservative. It's probably an occupational disease. At the same time, I also think that faith is a very good thing, especially in this era where you change your lifestyle every five to ten years and the average life expectancy is as long as three hundred years. It can protect your sanity and prevent you from falling into despair. Lose yourself."

　"Teacher Lu thinks so, which makes me a little surprised."

　"But Mr. Hope," Lu Bixing asked him, "if you fight for your position, point of view or even interests, your position can change as time goes by. Opinions can be overturned, interests can be weighed and given up, all of this can be wrong, and if it is wrong, it can be corrected without breaking the bones. But beliefs are different. I think beliefs must be deified and cannot be too far away from the secular world. Recently, we cannot get involved in secular conflicts, because it is either always and absolutely correct, or it faces total collapse. However, human civilization develops dynamically, with twists and turns. Nothing can always be correct. If one day, you find that you have taken the wrong path. , what should you do? Are you broken down, or are you like those who are obsessed with it, harming others and yourself, and are obsessed with it?"

　Hope was silent for a long time, and nodded slowly: "You have a point - but Teacher Lu, There is a saying, I don't know if you have heard of it, "Humankind originates from faith."

　Lu Bixing replied: "Humanity will also be destroyed by faith."

　These two people are full of fallacies and will brainwash people if they disagree. The magic sticks came together to wash each other, just like two raccoons rubbing each other. They found that neither one could wash the other, so they had to smile at each other, and there was a little sympathy for each other in chess.

　At this time, White's hesitating voice came from the mecha's radio: "Teacher Lu, this issue is a bit complicated. Can you come over?"

　Lu Bixing put down his wine glass, made a "tsk" sound, and said to Hope, "For Traffic safety, I have to clean up the mess for the naughty kid."

　Hope nodded, and then suddenly asked: "Teacher Lu, do you have faith?"

　Lu Bixing paused and was about to say that he likes to look at problems from multiple perspectives. The scientist didn't say anything, but he inexplicably thought of the man who opened the nursing cabin and held his hand that day.

　After many days, the scene of that day still appeared repeatedly in his dreams, which was quite unforgettable.

　No, he thought, returning home is a bit like a rocket.

　Lu Bixing stuttered on the tip of his tongue, lost his mind, and blurted out: "Yes."

　They arrived in the atmosphere in the evening of the morning star. As soon as they approached, they received the dispatch signal from the mecha transceiver station-a large number of military mechas. It will set off from the fourth channel outside Galaxy City in three hours. Mecha pilots taking off and landing nearby are asked to turn on the automatic navigation system and pay attention to avoid each other.

　"Ouch," Turan glanced at Lu Bixing gloatingly because his anger had not yet calmed down, "Why did you clear the road three hours in advance? With such a big movement, it couldn't be that the general went out in person, right? It seems that some people are not lucky? "

　Lu Bixing dismantled someone else's mecha the day before and violated at least a dozen interstellar traffic laws. He had nothing to say and rubbed his nose in embarrassment.

　"We are poor," Turan said, shaking his head. "The head of the family has to go out hunting all day long to earn a living. He doesn't even have wedding leave. Oh, by the way, Teacher Lu, I have wanted to interview you for a long time. What kind of thing is it to sleep with Lin Jingheng? How does it feel?"

　The mecha was bumped by the airflow on the way down, and Lu Bixing almost choked on his saliva.

　Turan laughed, patted him, and touched his flat shoulder: "It's not that good, right? It's normal that it's not that good. Why don't you stay at his place at all? Let me tell you, These bright-looking "Flowers of the High Mountains" don't taste very good. Either they can't let go or they can't live well. They are used to being served by others and don't care about other people's feelings at all. Who knows who feels uncomfortable - what will happen to him next? I didn't know how to cover you with a quilt when I went to smoke, right?"

　Lu Bixing didn't want to discuss such obscene topics with the old gangster, so he could only smile quietly and said to himself: You told me that you were a slut last time.

　The mecha began to pass through the clouds. Taking advantage of the loud noise, Turan asked him loudly: "Would you like to try my medicine that can help you feel happy?"

　Lu Bixing pressed his ears, pretending not to hear, and decided to go back later Report her.

　The mecha station is very busy, which is strange to say. The people selling biochips in the Free Corps are somehow so obsessed with the eight systems. They try to infiltrate them every three days like flies. They are beaten to the point where they can't be found, and they reappear every once in a while. This time, the scouts followed the clues and found their command center and military supply depot in the eighth galaxy, which was suitable for robbery, so Lin Jingheng specially ordered a dozen transport ships to accompany them. The transport ship does not have as high maneuverability as the mecha, so it must be loaded onto the orbit in advance.

　Normally, Lin Jingheng would be sitting in the command center of the mecha platform at this time. Lu Bixing slipped out of the engineering team unnoticed and went straight to the command center, intending to seize the opportunity to see Lin Jingheng before they set off. Who knows what happened next? Looking far away, he saw a solemn-faced one-eyed eagle patrolling the door of the command center, holding a cigarette and looking upright as if he was guarding the door of the Yuanyang Inn and preparing to crack down on pornography.

　Lu Bixing felt a pain in his molar, and took advantage of the various large-scale equipment in the mecha station to hide, and began to think about how to avoid the one-eyed eagle. Behind him was a small mecha parked outside the mecha station. As soon as Lu Bixing's back touched the hatch, the hatch accidentally slid open. Lu Bixing didn't pay attention and stumbled half a step before he could help him. Steady, a pair of hands suddenly stretched out from the cabin door, covered his mouth with one hand, and dragged him in.

　Lu Bixing: "..."

　The green mental net fell down, and the cabin door was locked from the inside. The lights in the cabin suddenly dimmed following the pilot's thoughts. Lu Bixing was shocked to see Lin Jingheng, who was supposed to be at the command post, nearby. So close, the glowing light of the spiritual network is reflected in the eyes, it is simply a classic affair scene in the movie.

　Lu Bixing's heart rate soared to 180, and his ears were about to burst.

　Lin Jingheng moved her palm away from his mouth, frowned and said, "Why do you have such an annoying father? This menopause must have been going on for hundreds of years."

　Lu Bixing casually teased: "Why don't you just hide me in the mecha and steal it ? Let's go."

　Lin Jingheng raised his eyebrows expressionlessly, as if he was thinking carefully about the feasibility of this matter: "Okay, this mecha will be incorporated into the third team. After leaving the atmosphere, you can report the fault and go directly to the heavy machine. Three is enough, I'll tell Zhan Lu to shut up."

　Lu Bixing was afraid that he would take the joke seriously, so he quickly said, "No, no, no, no, no, Director Edward must be crazy."

　Lin Jingheng looked at him for a while, and at first, his eyes were like those around raw meat . The lion was spinning, but gradually, a smile that couldn't help but appear in the corners of his cold eyes.

　Only then did Lu Bixing realize that the serious General Lin was actually teasing him. He raised his hand to push Lin Jingheng away and pressed him against the mecha hatch: "Okay, General, your mouth is full of this and this, and your stomach is full of this and that - what happened before?" Didn't you see that you are this kind of person?"

　Lin Jingheng was preparing to go out. Although his gloves were in his pockets, his uniform was meticulous. With this extremely serious outfit and doing something extremely unserious, Lu Bixing's heart felt hot and he suddenly thought of landing. The rogue words that the former Turan poured into his ears made him forget about the serious matter of reporting the guard captain. His eyes slowly fell on Lin Jingheng's collar, giving birth to a bold desire.
