Escape From the Library

【Deep Starry Sky-16】

Orange dinner is certainly not full, but in survival mode, it is already hard to get something to eat, so you can't ask too much.After dinner, everyone squeezed the remaining oranges into juice and sealed them in Xin Yan's flask for storage.

The time has come to 11 o'clock in the evening.After this day's thrilling escape, everyone was exhausted.Yue Xingwen saw that the students were not energetic, so he said to everyone: "Get ready to sleep, two people, take turns to watch the night."

Ke Shaobin actively opened the laptop, took out the previous night schedule, and said, "Xingwen has an injury on his hand, so don't keep vigil. How about we follow the old rules on the spaceship? Xin Yan and I point."

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

The others also had no objection, and 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 the earth. It is difficult to sleep at such a hot temperature.

Yue Xingwen repeated the old trick, directly filling a room with water with "Water Flooding the Golden Mountain", and asked Qin Lu to freeze the water into ice with the "Siberian Cold Current".In this way, everyone has natural ice to keep in the house to cool down.

Ke Shaobin said with emotion: "Our 183 research team is really the strongest construction team! We build houses, generate oxygen, boil water to keep warm when it's cold, and use ice cubes to cool down when it's hot."

Xu Yishen lifted a piece of ice and put it next to him with a smile, "I really want to bring these skills back to reality. I can mitosis a clone to attend lectures, and the main body plays games in the dormitory."

Liu Zhaoqing complained: "My gauze is the best seller. It can solve all skin acne and scar problems. 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 will turn us into monsters instead."

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

Everyone seems to see that customs clearance is just around the corner.

However, the library never talks about martial arts, and Yue Xingwen always feels that this course will not be so simple.Next, maybe even more dangerous things will happen, so everyone must not relax.

He always had a crow's mouth, and it was not easy to directly express his guesses, so he changed his words: "Everyone should have a good rest first, and we can discuss things tomorrow."

Everyone leaned on the ice and fell asleep, leaving two people to keep watch.

It was a very peaceful night.When Xiaotu woke up the next morning, the surrounding environment was no different from yesterday. If it wasn't for the time display on the wristband, everyone wouldn't be able to tell how long it had been.

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

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

Everyone chats and washes up.

With Yue Xingwen and Xin Yan around, no matter where they go, they will never lack water.

It was inconvenient for Yue Xingwen 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 used a decanter to catch a glass of water for him to drink.

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

Seeing this scene, Lin Manluo felt complicated, she quietly pulled Zhuo Feng aside, and said in a low voice, "Do you feel that Pince and Xingwen seem to be getting closer?"

Zhuo Feng scratched his head in doubt: "Aren't they always like this?"

Lin Manluo: "..."

Is the girl's intuition at work, 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 did have a good relationship, but outsiders can tell that they are "good buddies" at a glance. Yue Xingwen would put Jiang Pingce's shoulders and talk unceremoniously, with frank eyes...

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

Good buddies will feed each other, still blush?

Lin Manluo looked at the two suspiciously, just in time to see Jiang Pingce take the cup from Yue Xingwen.Yue Xingwen just drank half a glass of water with that glass, Jiang Pingce drank the remaining half glass of water without hesitation.

Has cleanliness been cured?

Lin Manluo looked away, feeling complicated.

She had a bold guess... Could it be that Xing Wen and Ping Ce have fallen in love with each other during their years of getting along?

Time passed very slowly.

There are no plants or animals on this planet. There are only 12 of them on this huge planet, hiding in the temporary base built by Zhang Xiaonian, and there are no entertainment activities 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, which cannot satisfy human body metabolism at all.

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

26 days to go.

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

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

Lan Yarong took out her law books and taught everyone a law education.

A tough day is finally over.

The fifth day and the sixth day were also spent in such a boring and boring way.

And in order to preserve their strength, no one dared to go out for activities. After all, their current food was 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 is much worse than they imagined.

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

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

After eating oranges for four consecutive days, everyone already felt hungry and weak.It's hard to imagine what will happen if you eat it for more than 20 days in a row?I'm afraid they won't even have the strength to raise their hands at that time. If they encounter danger again, won't they become a group of sheep at the mercy of others?

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

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 terrifying, and it's a species I've never seen before. I don't know where its weakness is. We may not be able to fight it." Thinking of seeing it in the cave The monster's eyes were densely packed all over its body, and Yue Xingwen's scalp was numb.

Ke Shaobin said with a bitter face: "Besides, when we escaped, the cave had completely collapsed. We can't go back and let Xiaonian dig it inch by inch, right? If we fall into the abyss, we will die."

Lin Manluo said softly: "In times of famine in ancient times, 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. And the lawn, everyone endured it and passed."

However, the strong hunger still urges them to find food as soon as possible, like insects and ants constantly gnawing on their nerves.Although it is theoretically possible to survive by eating bark and leaves, the experience of being so hungry and dizzy is really terrible.

At this moment, Xu Yishen suddenly said: "Doesn't Xin Yan have the "Periodic Table of Elements"? Can amino acids be artificially synthesized by chemical methods?"

Liu Zhaoqing's eyes lit up: "Yes! Why did I forget this? Amino acid is an organic compound containing carboxyl and amino groups in its molecule, which can be synthesized artificially. Xin Yan has a full set of chemical laboratory equipment in hand. If he can synthesize amino acid , then we will be able to supplement the protein that the human body needs for metabolism!"

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

Everyone looked at him expectantly.

After a while, Xin Yan came to everyone with two glass bottles and said, "Artificial synthesis requires more than 6 steps of chemical reactions, which is rather troublesome. I have only successfully synthesized two essential amino acids so far, and everyone treats them as nutrients." Let’s add it, it doesn’t matter if you’re full after eating this.”

Ke Shaobin said in a complicated mood: "I thought you were tinkering with those chemical instruments in the past two days, and you were doing some novel experiments...so you were synthesizing nutrients for everyone?"

Xin Yan said lightly: "Something is better than nothing. Taking in some 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 want every day, it's better 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 of the time has passed, and there are still 20 days left. Hold on, everyone."

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

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

I saw a red coordinate constantly flashing on the computer screen, approaching their location at a very fast speed!
