Chapter 16 The Legendary Things(1/2)
Go to the moon.
At first glance, it seems like a task that is impossible to complete.
The technical level of the Shenmu World is approximately the same as that of the Earth (this Earth), which means that the subtle point in the electronic age has emerged but has not yet begun to enter the electronic age.
Nowadays, the Tianzheng Alliance already has airships that can fly at subsonic speeds, but not to mention that they are the most peak special airships for the Demon Subduing Bureau. The ones that make the airships are not pure mechanical technology, but use high-level spiritual power arrays to activate. Of course, this is also a technology, and the technology of the Shenmu World itself is based on true qi.
But even with the addition of true energy and Shenmu World, they are extremely far away from the moon landing, which requires extremely high-tech content, they have never even launched satellites.
It was precisely because of this that Zhou Buyi didn't understand what Shao Qiming said at all. He touched his chin in confusion and said, "I'm sorry, what does it mean to go to the moon...?"
Shao Qiming showed his patience at this time: "The only way to solve the bug that you and Panrong Immortal Tree cannot be compatible with the same planet is to send your body to another planet."
"Theoretically, sending you to Mars is the best, and your development potential is much greater than that of the moon, but even ours has only been realized more than 20 years ago. I don't think you can do it."
And this time, Zhou Buyi vaguely understood. He stood at the edge of the top of the sacred tree, looked down at the earth and city under his feet, and then slowly said: "That means, if I want to survive and not be swallowed by the Immortal Tree of Panrong, I have to leave this homeland?"
At this time, Su Zhou, who was communicating with the Panrong Immortal Tree, vaguely heard the anger in Zhou Buyi's tone. He remembered clearly that when facing the migrants who fled from their hometown, Zhou Buyi was so helpless and sad that Zhou Buyi was. Although Qi Ming had no such intention, Zhou Buyi heard that going to the moon itself was equivalent to leaving China and going to other foreign lands to escape the Demon Dynasty.
Not to mention whether he will go or not, just doing this thing itself is a escape for Zhou Buyi.
So Su Zhou walked forward and patted the other person on the shoulder from behind: "Let's go, an old guy over 100, don't look at it from another perspective because of emotional matters. You are opening up the way forward for your world."
Then, Su Zhou gave a wink at Shao Qiming on one side, indicating that he would say the next thing, and Shao Qiming shrugged and stood aside.
"Listen, my friend, let's not talk about the essence of this matter. Don't you want to lead the Tianzheng Alliance to continue to develop? But in fact, this matter must be in a bottleneck."
Ordinary leverage is just a simple rebuttal. As an epic leverager, Su Zhou is best at finding what aspect a person pays most, and then devotes himself to this aspect, repeatedly questioning, and a person who is sufficiently angry is smoked and dies. Of course, this ability is also a skill in persuading people: "Civilization is lazy. After it develops to a certain extent, it will not make rapid progress without stimulation, but will fall into stagnation."
Of course, this is not Su Zhou's nonsense, but the fact that the earth's immortal and god civilization is a typical example. Their technological outbreak stage occurred during the war with the divine beast cluster, and the second technological outbreak occurred in internal factional struggles. After the state of many forces stabilized, their progress rate dropped greatly, and even the zero renewal brought about by the extremely long life span made them lack new blood.
The world of Shenmu is the same. When the masses within a civilization can have enough food, most people will not think about rebelling and overthrowing the existing regime, and naturally there will be no large-scale chaos. Instead, they will maintain a stable life. Naturally, the technology will be the same, and then it will show serious inversion.
Zhou Buyi himself knew this very well, so he wanted to make civilization move forward by creating threats.
So, Su Zhou gave a better suggestion: "First of all, if your body goes to the moon, it does not mean that your clones need to go, and you don't feel that the 'space monsters' coming from the moon brings a greater stimulation to the Tianzheng Alliance than the monsters that appear on Earth?"
This almost instantly touched Zhou Buyi. He frowned and then stretched out. The man pinched his chin and suddenly said, "Yes!"
In fact, before this, he was still worried about how to fabricate the origin of the monsters that will appear in the future. After all, the entire earth has been roughly explored by the Tianzheng Alliance once. It would be fine to hide those ordinary people, but the top leaders of the alliance are basically impossible to be deceived.
However, if it was a space monster from the moon... it would be perfect! After all, now, who knows what space is like? Even Zhou Buyi himself only knew that the moon was an empty, unmanned and extremely harsh atmospheric satellite.
In response to this, Su Zhou even struck while the iron was hot: "Think about it! Since monsters come from the moon, in order to eradicate the attacks of monsters, the Tianzheng Alliance always needs to develop technology to go to outer space, right? It seems like a crisis, but in fact it guides civilization toward the distant starry sky! This is also a way to promote social progress."
"What's more, I think that with your body of divine wood, going to the moon is not just to avoid the Immortal Tree of Panrong... Zhou Buyi, you can use your own strength to open up the future for the human race in this world!"
When Su Zhou said this, even Zhou Buyi felt a little overrepresented: "I've passed it, I've passed it..."
But at this time, Su Zhou was immersed in his own thinking. He lowered his head and said thoughtfully: "The divine wood itself will transform a land into an environment suitable for his survival. If a divine wood is thrown on the moon, hundreds of years later, at least a large 'shen wood ecosystem' will appear on the moon. Yes, the changes in the world environment of the gods are sometimes not bad. They are engineers used to transform the planetary environment in the natural interstellar colonial era!"
Naturally, Zhou Buyi of the Shenmu World couldn't understand any interstellar colonization or the transformation of the planetary environment, but he vaguely realized that Su Zhou was getting more and more interested: "If this Shenmu, with the will of humans, can spontaneously convert spiritual energy and local matter to create an ecological cycle within the region... Then with its advancement, it would be easy to transform a whole planet and make it livable!"
After talking to himself, Su Zhou raised his head and looked at Zhou Buyi. His eyes were full of eagerness: "Although it was Qi Ming's head, now I really think it's a good idea to let you go to the moon!"
Zhou Buyi: "?"
Shao Qiming: "Did you think this was not a good idea before?"
"Of course not!"
Su Zhou, who knew that he was wrong, quickly made up for it and explained: "I mean, except for the purpose of letting Zhou Buyi survive at the beginning, I realized that this was unexpectedly matched Zhou Buyi's own ideas and goals."
After explaining that he did not agree at will, but agreed seriously, Su Zhou was excited: "According to the development of the Tianzheng Alliance, as long as he does not collapse in the future, it is foreseeable to establish a World Alliance in the next hundred years. Because there is no world war, the population that exploded during this period is enough to fill the entire planet."
"At that time, even if they are unwilling, there are only a few choices to plan for family planning, world wars, and open up new worlds. The first two are to reduce population, while the latter can slowly guide them to the moon through Zhou Buyi's 100 years. At that time, the divine wood that Zhou Buyi transformed should also be able to create ecosystems on the moon. At that time, whether it is starting from the moon, going to other satellites, or continuing to transform the moon and establishing a lunar colony, it is a possibility of future development."
Hearing this, Shao Qiming also followed this idea and thought: "Yes, the divine wood that Zhou Buyi transformed into, and the wood of the past can be divided into clones, which is suitable for taking root in various places on the moon and creating independent ecosystems, and then connecting them in parallel in the future... The premise is that Zhou Buyi can go to the moon and survive on it."
This is a good question. As the center of the topic, Zhou Buyi could only smile bitterly. He looked at the banyan tree under his feet with a complicated expression for a while, and then shook his head: "Okay, I am indeed a person who is almost two hundred years old, so naturally I won't act as impulsive as I was when I was young."
"Since Immortal Tree and I cannot coexist on this planet, it is almost a necessity for me to go to other planets. As for whether I can survive, I don't have to worry about the tenacity of the Shenmu is far more tenacious than ordinary life. I have been to the top of the atmosphere. The most important thing is how to go."
Whether to go or not is a mental problem, and how to go is a technical problem. Shao Qiming was still hesitating about this. He felt that if some Rocket-related technologies were handed over to Shenmu World, would it be a betrayal in a sense? He also wanted to urge Su Zhou not to transfer technology without authorization just because the other party was his friend.
But his thinking mode was not pioneering enough, at least not as pioneering as Su Zhou.
"This is not simple. You can just fly over after calculating the data yourself."
Speaking so, Su Zhou stretched out his hand, and hundreds of mist seeds soared out from his body like fireflies, and then turned into illusory light patterns, quickly condensing some rocket propulsion models with spiritual energy as the structure in the atmosphere.
He controlled the rocket model to fly in mid-air and said in a natural tone: "With your spiritual energy, plus you only need to push yourself, and at the same time, prepare some spiritual power formations to assist in acceleration, bring more spiritual materials and pills to replenish spiritual power. It should not be difficult to break through ten kilometers per second."
Zhou Buyi thought something and nodded: "It makes sense."
Shao Qiming: "?"
Although he was shocked by Su Zhou's answer that was too extraordinary, Shao Qiming thought about it carefully and realized that for the extraordinary, going to the moon was really not a matter of too much concern.
The earth landed on the moon in the past because at that time, major forces around the world were competing for the speed of space development. Just as Zhengguo alone, not talking about early research and development, launching satellites to explore the details of the moon's surface, choosing landing locations, etc., the entire project cost hundreds of billions of yuan, involving tens of thousands of enterprises and departments of various industries, 108 A and B academies, as well as other major academies, all of which were strongly supported. Even the public opinion environment of the entire Zhengguo and the people were willing to raise funds for this.
However, because the spiritual energy was cut off at that time, the project had to worry about many things that needed to be concerned about, such as the safety of astronauts, landing details, rocket thrust-to-weight ratio, fuel selection, shipping volume choice, repeated surveys of safe landing sites, corresponding extra-cabin activities and training, etc. Humans are fragile species after all, and they are not doing a one-time business. After sending people up, they have to send them back safely.
However, in the extraordinary world, things are much simpler than Rockets? The commanding superpowers are certainly not as powerful as Rockets, but they only need to transport themselves. With the help of some magic circles and magic weapons, their ultimate speed may even be faster than Rockets. As long as their spiritual power control is high, they are more flexible than Rockets. It is really not difficult to break through the gravity of the earth and go to the moon.
Material tolerance? Zhou Buyi can travel to the mantle. As long as he continues to practice and improve himself and fine-tune the shell, it is only a short-term adjustment problem compared to rocket armor.
Landing location? Stop being funny. Zhou Buyi hit the moon, and it was definitely the moon that was injured, not him.
As for vitality... If we have to compare the adaptability and vitality to the environment, even Su Zhou dares not say that he is stronger than the Divine Wood Series. There is light and soil on the moon, and there is spiritual energy in space. This is enough for a commanding strongman to survive.
These are also why Zhengguo chose Su Zhou as the captain of the exploration team on the back of the moon. Even if the rockets returned were blown up and everyone else died, Su Zhou could survive until Zhengguo sent a second spacecraft to pick him up. With this stability alone, he was the best candidate for the captain.
The only problem may be the calculation of the moon's orbit, the selection of the time and location of the launch. This must be calculated for a long time and repeated trial and error to find the most perfect answer. After all, the world of Shenmu is different from the earth. Even if Su Zhou and Shao Qiming are willing to give the information to Zhou Buyi, Zhou Buyi cannot use it.
But Zhou Buyi himself expressed his inattention to this point: "I have more than a hundred clones, just try it in turn, even if they are used up, I can create it again... In fact, those are actually my body, but the power of the ‘body’ I am using now is the greatest."
More than a hundred times, or even more trial and error opportunities, can be declared completely successful as long as you succeed once. Shao Qiming has never heard of a simple and convenient way to go to the moon without any troubles and fatigue.
Although many things are just an idea now, the general framework has been constructed. Whether it is the guidance of the future of the Shenmu World civilization or the incompatible contradiction between Zhou Buyi and the Panrong Immortal Tree, there are now rough solutions.
Su Zhou could not have done more about this. This is ultimately the business of Zhou Buyi and Shenmu World. As a friend of another world, it is already the limit to reaching this point.
For this, Zhou Buyi also sincerely thanked Shao Qiming and Su Zhou several times.
"Although it's just an idea, for me, ideas are the most important."
He said this, and he raised his head, looked at the sky, and laughed quite vicissitudes: "Guide a civilization to the starry sky and the moon... Such things are really romantic when you think about them."
An old man who was nearly two hundred years old ignited his fighting spirit because of a seemingly absurd suggestion and plan.
In response, Shao Qiming shook his head: "Su Zhou was always too romantic to forget the difficulties and obstacles in the middle... Zhou Buyi went to the moon, but it was a very lonely thing. Even if you really succeed, the construction on it is very boring, and the development of technology may not be so fast. Maybe dozens or hundreds of years will be required before they can barely reach the moon."
"Lonely?"
He chanted the Tao in a low voice, but Zhou Buyi looked at Su Zhou, and the two "undead" looked at each other.
Su Zhou could see that in the other party's eyes, there was a fire that was extremely similar to the young man who had first met with him more than a hundred years ago.
Difficulty is never a reason to stop action, it is just an adjective and will be overcome.
"I'm not dead, I'm not dead... Isn't I lonely in this bustling crowd?"
But after Su Zhou looked at each other, Zhou Buyi laughed loudly. He turned around and walked towards the edge of the top of the divine wood. The lonely man repeated: "It would be better to say that this is exactly what only me who possesses the power of the divine wood, and only the undead, can do!"
The long conversation with Zhou Buyi has ended.
The communication with the Panrong Immortal Tree did not last long, and the thinking of the Divine Wood and humans were not on the same channel at all.
Through a brief exchange, Su Zhou knew that the Immortal Banyan Tree had indeed been completely rooted in this planet, and in the past 100 years, no one has ever used the power of the divine tree derived from His.
Zhou Buyi is different. He used tricks to get the Panrong Immortal Tree that had been separated from the Panrong Immortal Tree, which originated from the power of the Demon Emperor and the Demon Dynasty, so he happened to avoid the detection of Panrong Immortal Tree.
After confirming this information, Su Zhou ended the call with the other party. Anyway, for this kind of divine tree that has been in a flash in one hundred and fifty years, everything in the world is just a fleeting drama. They never care about it, nor will they observe these, because only all things exist through them, not the opposite.
And this unconscious arrogance may be the reason why the end of Shenmu is not very good in many myths.
"... Almost, the things that should be done in this world are over. When my old friend met, the situation of Shenmu was confirmed, and the blade of Destruction was about to advance. My own practice was also confirmed through the battle with Zhou Buyi. I made a little progress, not to mention the technology and information, which was a great harvest."
Zhou Buyi's figure had gone away. I thought he should have gone to find his staff and astronomers to calculate the basic information of the moon's orbit. Su Zhou was at the top of the divine wood and showed off to Shao Qiming, "This is where I stabbed the Demon Emperor on the pillar with one shot!" Afterwards, he stood at the edge with the other party and looked down at the vast world around him.
Clouds are floating. The weather in Nantianjing is very good recently. From time to time, there are snow-like clouds floating towards the top of the divine wood like waves. Some flowing clouds cannot touch the top of the top and can only pass below it. However, there are still some huge clouds that can swallow the towering top of the divine wood. With the strong winds whistling at high altitude, it really feels like touching the waves of the clouds.
After missing the excitement he had at the beginning, Su Zhou sighed. He turned his head with some remembrance and looked at the Victory Memorial beside him, then took a step and slowly walked towards that direction: "After a while, it's time to go back."
Shao Qiming followed Su Zhou. He hadn't figured out what his friend wanted to do at first, but as Su Zhou put his hand into his arms and took out the photo of himself and Zhou Bu, he vaguely understood.
Even if it is just a temporary intercourse or a short battle, friendship is friendship and will not change color due to time and the death of one party.
He followed Su Zhou's footsteps and saw the other party step into the Victory Memorial Hall. As the most famous hero in the entire Shenmu world and a hero who was praised by the world, all the pioneers of the Hundred Schools who had participated in the fight against the Demon Dynasty and fought against the Demon Emperor and Demon General, their ashes were here, and stone tablets that remembered all the deeds of life were erected in the museum, just like telling the history and story to all visitors.
Su Zhou walked through all the stone tablets and all the tombstones. He remembered the names of most of them, and also remembered the appearance of those people, Mo Ganxiu, Li Daoran, Wei Lie, Fang Hui, Liu Xizhao... Su Zhou all remembered very clearly that his Lan Jia, bow technique and thunder technique all came from this world, and the national master was indeed the first tricky enemy he encountered.
Of course, this is not something worthy of sadness. Everyone here is heroes. They succeed and have their ideals come true. Their achievements are sung by the world and will last forever.
So Su Zhou just smiled and nodded at the stone tablets in turn, then walked to the center of the row of stone sculptures on the innermost side.
He found his name.
