Escape the Library

Chapter 264: Deep in the Stars 16

【Deep Starry Sky-16】

Of course, the orange dinner cannot be full, but in survival mode, it is very rare to have something to eat, so you can't ask too much. After everyone has eaten dinner, the remaining oranges are directly squeezed into juice and stored in Xin Yan's flask sealed.

It's already 11pm. After a day of thrilling escapes, everyone was exhausted. When Yue Xingwen saw that the classmates were not in good spirits, he said to everyone: "Get ready to sleep, two people in a group, take turns to watch the night."

Ke Shaobin actively opened the laptop, took out the previous night shift schedule, and said, "Xingwen has an injury on his hand, so don't watch the night. How about we follow the old rules on the spacecraft? Xin Yan and I are from 4:00 to 6:00 in the morning. point."

Liu Zhaoqing agreed: "Pingce is responsible for taking care of Xingwen. The remaining 10 people are divided into 5 groups, and each person rotates for 2 hours. With the small map patrolling, the safety at night will definitely be no problem."

Others have no opinion, and they have determined the time of the vigil according to the previous grouping.

The temporary base built by Zhang Xiaonian is a reinforced concrete structure, which can withstand part of the heat from the magma. However, the temperature of the entire environment exceeds 40 degrees, just like the scorching heat on earth, it is difficult to sleep at such a hot temperature.

Yue Xingwen repeated the old trick, directly flooding a room with "water flooding the golden mountains", and asked Qin Lu to freeze the water into ice with the "Siberian cold current". In this way, everyone has natural ice cubes to cool down in the house.

Ke Shaobin said with emotion: "Our 183 research group is really the strongest construction team! Building houses, producing oxygen, heating water when it is cold, and cooling with ice cubes when it is hot."

With a deep smile, Xu Yi lifted a block of ice next to him and said, "I really want to bring these skills back to reality. I can have a clone of mitosis to attend the class, and the main body can play games in the dormitory."

Liu Zhaoqing complained: "My gauze is the best-selling product. It can solve all skin acne marks and scars. I can get rich overnight just by selling gauze."

Lin Manluo said helplessly: "Bring back to reality? Don't think about it. It's already very difficult for us to leave the library alive. Bringing skills back to reality, we become monsters instead."

Zhuo Feng said: "Anyway, with the ability in hand, it should be no problem to persist in such an environment for 27 days."

Everyone seems to see the customs clearance close at hand.

However, the library never taught martial arts, and Yue Xingwen always felt that this course would not be so simple. Next, there may be more dangerous things happening, so we must not relax.

He has always been crow-mouthed, and it is not easy to tell his guess directly, so he changed his words: "Everyone, rest well first, and we will discuss something tomorrow."

Everyone slept on the ice cubes, leaving two people to watch the night.

It was a very quiet night. When I was woken up by Xiaotu the next morning, the surrounding environment was the same as yesterday. If it wasn't for the time display on the bracelet, we couldn't tell how long it had been.

Ke Shaobin stretched and looked at the barren red land around him, and said, "This planet has no day and night, no light, and the scenery is the same no matter what time it is. It feels like it has been abandoned by the entire universe."

Xin Yan said: "If it weren't for various skills, it would definitely be a dead end for humans to land here."

Everyone was talking and taking a shower.

With Yue Xingwen and Xin Yan there, they will never run out of water no matter where they go.

Yue Xingwen was inconvenient to wash with one hand, so Jiang Pingce asked Liu Zhaoqing to borrow a roll of gauze, moistened the gauze with water and handed it to Yue Xingwen to wipe his face. He also took a glass of water in a still for him to drink.

After yesterday, Yue Xingwen no longer rejected Jiang Pingce's care psychologically. He sat there naturally and wiped his face with gauze, and took a few sips of warm water handed over by Jiang Pingce.

Seeing this scene, Lin Manluo was in a complicated mood. She quietly pulled Zhuo Feng aside and whispered, "Don't you think that Pingce and Xingwen seem to be getting closer?"

Zhuo Feng scratched his head in confusion: "Haven't they always been like this?"

Lin Manluo: "..."

Is the girl's intuition playing the trick, or is she thinking too much? I always feel that the relationship between Jiang Pingce and Yue Xingwen seems to be different from before. In the past, the two of them really had a good relationship, but outsiders could see the kind of intimacy they were "good buddies" at first sight.

But yesterday, when she saw Jiang Pingce feeding Yue Xingwen oranges, Xingwen blushed.

Good buddies will feed each other and still blush?

Lin Manluo looked at the two suspiciously, just in time to see Jiang Pingce taking the cup from Yue Xingwen's hand. Yue Xingwen just drank half a glass of water from that cup, and Jiang Pingce drank the remaining half glass in one go without hesitation.

Even the cleanliness has been cured?

Lin Manluo looked back, feeling complicated.

She has a bold guess... Could it be that Xingwen and Peace have fallen in love with each other after years of getting along?

Time passed very slowly.

There are no plants or animals on this planet. There are only 12 of them in the huge planet, hiding in the temporary base made by Zhang Xiaonian, and there is no entertainment to pass the time.

Everyone sat bored all day, and when they were hungry at night, they drank orange juice to satisfy their hunger.

My stomach is almost full, but I still feel hungry.

After all, they have not taken in the necessary protein and fat for 48 consecutive hours. Oranges can only supplement sugar and vitamins, and cannot satisfy human body metabolism at all.

This is the fourth day that everyone came to the examination room for the "Deep Starry Sky" course of the School of Physics.

26 days to leave.

The thought of spending the next 26 days like this made Ke Shaobin's scalp tingle. He simply pulled out his laptop and played minesweeper to pass the time, diverting his attention so that he would not be so hungry.

Xin Yan studied the periodic table of elements seriously, took out a lot of bottles and jars, and didn't know what experiment he was doing - he actually opened the chemical laboratory to an alien, he was really a scientific research madman!

Lan Yarong took out her law books and gave everyone a law popularization class.

The hard day is finally over.

The fifth day, the sixth day, was also spent in such boring and boring.

And in order to save their physical strength, everyone dared not go out for activities. After all, their food now is only oranges and leaves. A group of young people ate oranges for three days in a row, and they were so hungry that their chests stuck to their backs.

The situation was much worse than they thought.

When he woke up on the seventh day, Ke Shaobin obviously felt dizzy and weak in his limbs.

The moment he stood up, he almost fell, hurriedly supported the small picture next to him, and whispered to Yue Xingwen with a pale face: "Xingwen, although I eat oranges every day, I still feel very hungry, more and more. Hunger!"

It has only been four days of eating oranges, and everyone has already felt hungry and weak. It's hard to imagine what it would be like to eat more than 20 days in a row? I'm afraid they won't even have the strength to raise their hands by then. If they encounter danger again, won't they become a flock of sheep to be slaughtered?

Yue Xingwen looked at everyone's sickness, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "While we still have strength, we must find a way to expand the source of food."

Jiang Pingce looked at him and asked, "That abyss monster?"

Yue Xingwen frowned: "It's best if you don't disturb it, that thing is too scary, and it's a species I've never seen before. I don't know where its weakness is, we may not be able to beat it." Thinking of seeing it in the cave at that time The monster's eyes are densely packed, and Yue Xingwen's scalp is numb.

Ke Shaobin said with a bitter face: "Also, when we escaped, the karst cave had completely collapsed. We can't go back and let Xiao Nian dig inch by inch, right? If we fall into the abyss, we will still be dead."

Lin Manluo said softly: "In ancient times of famine, many people could survive by eating leaves and bark. We ate oranges for a few days in a row, and then we could eat my leaves. I can summon trees every once in a while. He Lawn, everyone just bear with it and go."

However, the strong hunger is still like insects gnawing on nerves, urging them to find food as soon as possible. Although it is theoretically possible to survive by eating bark and leaves, the experience of being so hungry and fainting is really bad.

At this moment, Xu Yishen suddenly said: "Didn't Xin Yan have a "Periodic Table of Elements"? Can you use chemical methods to synthesize amino acids artificially?"

Liu Zhaoqing's eyes lit up: "Yes! How could I forget this. Amino acids are organic compounds containing carboxyl and amino groups in their molecules, and they can be synthesized artificially. Xin Yan has a full set of chemical experimental equipment in his hand. If amino acids can be synthesized , then we can supplement the protein needed for human metabolism!"

Xin Yan's voice came from not far away: "I'm doing an experiment, and there will be results soon."

Everyone looked at him expectantly.

After a while, Xin Yan came to everyone with two glass bottles and said, "Synthesis requires more than 6 steps of chemical reactions, which is quite troublesome. I have only successfully synthesized two essential amino acids so far, and everyone regards them as nutrients. Come and add it, it doesn't matter if you're full."

Ke Shaobin said in a complicated mood: "I thought you were fiddling with those chemical instruments these past two days. What novel experiments were you doing... So you were synthesizing nutrients for everyone?"

Xin Yan said lightly: "Anything is better than nothing. Taking in a little essential amino acids can reduce the burden on the body's metabolism. Next, I will try to synthesize aliphatic compounds and add some oil to everyone."

Lin Manluo said excitedly, "Xin Yan is indeed our chef!"

With the nutrients synthesized by Xin Yan, even if they can't eat all they can every day, they are still much stronger than eating only leaves and bark. Everyone's mood suddenly relaxed a lot.

It was like this until the tenth day. Although everyone was depressed due to hunger, the nutritional supplements were still sufficient, and there were no obvious problems in the body.

Ke Shaobin looked at the bracelet and said, "One third has passed, there are 20 days left, everyone hold on."

At this moment, Xiaotu suddenly sounded the alarm: "Unknown moving coordinates are found ahead!"

Ke Shaobin hurriedly sat up straight and opened the laptop——

I saw a red coordinate flickering on the computer screen and approaching their location at a very fast speed!
