Chapter 459: Luo Ji's retirement
Cheng Ping's decision surprised many people, but everyone immediately understood his feelings.
Since leaving the solar system and coming into the universe, human thoughts have also undergone subtle changes.
The universe is too big for humans, and there are too many unknowns hidden in the dark forest.
Here, human desire for exploration has been completely stimulated. If the Solar System had not been advocated for planned and rational exploration, it would have probably triggered a wave of exploration craze.
Everyone also understands the concerns of the solar system country's proposition. After all, everyone is in a dark forest where people can eat people at any time. They are not here for outings, so they must be careful every step they take.
Therefore, everyone understands Cheng Ping's desire to explore the unknown, and admires his courage to explore.
On the day Cheng Ping set out, many people came to see him off. In addition to his family, friends, and colleagues, more people who did not know him and were infected by his actions.
The Earth Government also held a simple ceremony for him. Amid everyone's cheers and tears from relatives and friends, Cheng Ping waved to everyone with a smile, and then boarded the spaceship without looking back.
Because I have learned that other people have died when they go, Cheng Ping is the only one in this expedition team.
The spacecraft has been intensively transformed and has a large number of redundant life maintenance systems and energy systems. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be enough for Cheng Ping to use it for thousands of years alone.
This transformation is because no one knows how long his voyage is or how long it will take.
In order to reduce the chance of the spacecraft becoming a part when entering the time chaos area, an old warship that set out from the solar system was deliberately transformed.
However, with an intelligent driving system installed, otherwise a person would not be able to complete the operation of an old warship.
At the same time, the spacecraft is also equipped with many new research instruments. This is a rare opportunity to study the holes of the universe, so we naturally need to collect as much information as possible.
After the spacecraft took off, the crowd gradually dispersed.
After two or three hours, you can see from the large screen of the dock that there was only a small red dot left in the spacecraft.
Only Luo Ji had not left yet. He was leaning on a crutch and staring at Xiaohongdian in a daze.
After half an hour, his wife called him to go home for dinner, and then he found a shared airship home in a sloppy manner.
At the dining table, Zhuang Yue found that her father was feeling a little disappointed, so she took the initiative to find the topic and said: "Most of the 'Eden' that the wall-faced man Jiang Yu ordered to be built has been completed. I have visited it and it is very beautiful.
"After coming to Earth, you have been paying attention to the 'Chameleon' project and have no time to inspect it. Let's take a look together."
Luo Ji nodded: "Go next month."
By next month, Cheng Ping should have entered the time chaos.
Then Luo Ji smiled: "Actually, I didn't feel so sad when Cheng Ping left. I could feel his excitement and be happy for his decision.
"I just suddenly feel that this is the universe, the adventurer's paradise!
"It's a pity that I'm an old man, and I can't take risks anymore, otherwise I'll go to the universe to take a look."
Zhuang Yue was stunned: "The wall-faced Jiang Yu promised..."
Luo Ji waved his hand, "This head can't be opened no matter what!"
Although Zhuang Yue didn't finish speaking, Luo Ji understood that what she was talking about was "transferring" consciousness to a young body.
Jiang Yu should have made a promise that as long as Luo Ji is willing, he can do it at any time.
But Luo Ji would not agree that this revolutionary technology can only be popularized if the level of human thinking is high enough.
If it starts now, it will be used in some people who have made great contributions to mankind at the beginning, but it will not be necessary in a century or two.
Judging from the current human situation, if a group of people who never die will appear, it will squeeze the living space of newborns, and in the long run, a new privileged class may develop.
This is why Jiang Yu pulled the reins of technology very tightly, otherwise humans would probably play with fire and burn themselves, or they would cause too much uncertainty.
On the dining table of Luo Ji's family, Zhuang Yue saw that his father was so decisive, so he did not persuade him again.
For some time afterwards, Luo Ji went to the "Chameleon" research group every day to learn about the latest trends.
Because there is no need to worry about leaving a trail, Cheng Ping used a curvature engine for the early trip. When he was 2,600 astronomical units away from the "Chameleon", he left the speed of light for a series of observations.
The result is: nothing is observed.
The color of the "chameleon" is the only thing that humans can observe.
More than twenty days after Cheng Ping set out, the signal of the spacecraft he was riding suddenly stopped.
On the spacecraft, there are many signal transmitters, and in the end, only the neutrino signal transmitters sent back weak signals, but the signals received by the earth are all garbled and there is no useful information at all.
However, I still have to use it for deciphering it for the technicians. During the deciphering process, I accidentally found a clue: these signals are not garbled, but are just divided into hundreds of small segments of varying lengths.
When we think of the phenomenon in the chaos of time, it is not difficult to guess that the phenomenon in the chaos of time should have changed the signal.
It seems that the signal sent during normal times is 12345, but the signal received now is 43215, so it looks like garbled code.
In the next two days, the staff spliced two small signals to form a coherent signal, proving this conjecture.
This is like Cheng Ping sends everyone a handful of paper. Only after splicing it can you get important information on the paper.
After another eight days, the "notes" were finally spliced together. It turned out that this signal was a short message:
“I saw the towering mountain top!
There is a magnificent hall on the top of the mountain
I saw the paradise!”
This message immediately caused a new sensation. Cheng Ping's experience was different from that of "old Cheng Ping"!
Why is it called a paradise by him?
Just as the Solar System Kingdom restarted a new round of research on the "chameleon", the "chameleon" disappeared, and Cheng Ping's whereabouts were still the disappearance.
For a time, people had many new guesses about the "chameleon". Many people thought that this would be a reminder for future humans to the present humans? Or an opportunity to become a god-level civilization?
In the future, everyone lives a relaxed and comfortable life, everyone is happy and fulfilled, and everything conforms to the beauty deep in the soul, so it is called a paradise by Cheng Ping.
Some people believe that this is a backdoor opened by advanced civilizations for humans. After all, humans received information about the "park" two centuries ago, and later verified this information with the Three-Body Stars.
So could it be that there are really some kind-hearted and god-level civilizations that have built a paradise in the universe?
And waiting for the arrival of civilizations one by one.
