Perhaps because of the plateau, Xiyang in Jiayang Village was particularly dazzling, which made Mo Yunshu unable to adapt for a while. She squinted her eyes and raised her hand to block the strong light from the sky. It seemed like a short while, but also a long time For a long time, Mo Yunshu slowly opened his eyes in the strong light.

What a vast picture appeared before Mo Yunshu's eyes!The grassland is boundless and has no end in sight, and you can see the clouds on the horizon, and the wind whizzes past the sky, blowing the grass on the grassland into layers of waves, and the grass waves follow the strong wind. The wind blew past Mo Yunshu's ears, and the dull howling sound filled her ears. Mo Yunshu braved the wind and walked along the stone path. Wangmucuo (lake), Mo Yunshu's face was also reflected the luster of the lake water, the wind stopped in Shuer, Wangmucuo was quiet, and Mo Yunshu went to Baihua along the path she was all too familiar with. Walking in the direction of the forest, on the small plain, the white birches planted together look like an isolated island towering above the sea, and also like Arnold Böckling's famous painting "Dead Island".

And in this picture, the red-haired woman is standing quietly, she is stroking the tree with one hand, and the other hand hangs naturally below her body, facing the scorching sun, Mo Yunshu once again feels the beauty of the tree through the birch tree. She was reluctant to close her eyes at this time, but looked at the man's body vigorously. The red hair seemed to be hotter than the sun, and Mo Yunshu couldn't tell if it was Wendisha. Or Natalie.

With a trace of curiosity, Mo Yunshu walked towards that person, with intuition, Mo Yunshu called softly: "Wendisha."

"Shu, you're here." The woman turned her head, and it was no different from Mo Yunshu's guess.

"Why are you here?" Mo Yunshu asked, she didn't know why she asked such a question.

Wendisha looked up along the birch tree, the sun was shining on her face, as beautiful as an oil painting.

"I'll come and see you, how are you doing?" Wendisha smiled calmly.

"I....is fine." Mo Yunshu replied, indeed she was fine all these years, because the person who died was Wendisha.

"Yeah." Wendisha looked at Mo Yunshu, and said lightly, "I know, I'm also very happy to see you happy."

Mo Yunshu suddenly didn't know how to answer, she just looked at the white birches quietly, she touched the uneven bark vigorously, suppressing her entangled emotions.

"Shu, it's good to be here, don't go any further." Wen Disha patted Mo Yunshu on the shoulder, which felt so real.

"I... want to go back and have a look." Mo Yunshu replied softly, like a gentle kitten.

Wendisha shook her head lightly, and refused: "Go back, go back to Earth...."

"Can..."

Before Mo Yunshu could speak, the calm and clear Wang Mucuo suddenly became turbid, and the strong wind howled again. It rushed towards Mo Yunshu from the sky, and the sea of ​​grass turned into a huge wave, roaring crazily They rushed towards Mo Yunshu like thousands of horses galloping, and like flooded rivers, they split the gap between Mo Yunshu and Wendisha into two pieces, and the water from Wangmucuo Lake also rushed in. Mo Yun Shu stretched out his hand and tried to grab Wendisha, but he missed him. He could only watch Wendisha and the birch forest get farther and farther away, until they disappeared into the endless darkness.

The wind finally stopped again, and Mo Yunshu seemed to have returned to the original position. The sun was piercing her eyes, and suddenly a heavy coat was draped over her shoulders with both hands. It was a solid and warm feeling. Yun Shu looked back, and it was Natalie's smiling face.

"Natalie..."

"I'm here."

Mo Yunshu opened his eyes. The familiar ceiling was her captain's cabin. Natalie was sitting beside her, looking at her with concern as if she was in a dream.

"You're finally awake." Natalie helped Mo Yunshu up and let her lean against the wall.

"I'm sick again..." Mo Yunshu muttered, and then asked, "How long have I been asleep?"

Natalie looked at the time on the wall and said softly, "It's almost twelve hours."

"How is Yue Dong?" Mo Yunshu recalled what happened before he fell into a coma.

Natalie took a deep breath and said regretfully, "Dead."

This is the ending that Mo Yunshu could have guessed. She watched the overwintering spaceship crash into the statue of Windisa with her own eyes, but she wanted to ask about the situation in Organa Square, but the other party was Natalie after all. Yun Shu swallowed the words anyway.

"A lot of people died in Organa Square." To Mo Yunshu's surprise, Natalie took the initiative to bring up the matter: "Wen...Wendisa's statue was damaged a bit."

"Oh." Mo Yunshu avoided this topic, and she held Natalie's hand again: "The Aurora Jumping Station was destroyed, how does the Emerald Space Station think about this? Has the ghost on the Sun Chaser been caught?"

Natalie said slowly: "Don't worry about the Emerald Space Station, I'm here. As for the inner ghost..."

Natalie frowned slightly, lowered her head a little depressed and said, "According to the investigation, it was Kou Tong from the medical team who leaked the secret to Yudong."

"That head nurse!" Mo Yunshu was a little surprised by this answer. After making out with Natalie last time, she went for a blood test, and it was Kou Tong who checked her.

"Ah."

"Where is she now? Did the interrogation find out anything?" Mo Yunshu said.

Natalie knew that Mo Yunshu was very concerned about the Ashes Party, and she didn't want to tell Mo Yunshu the truth now: "Dead, she shot herself before Inoue stepped into the infirmary."

Mo Yunshu punched the wall beside her, and Natalie quickly pulled her hand over. The joints on her hand had broken the skin.

"At least we know the purpose of the Ash Party." Natalie relieved.

"Revenge on the human government." Mo Yunshu continued, "But I can't figure it out. Preventing us from going to H16 is also one of the acts of revenge on the human government? Your project should still be in the experimental stage, and it will be put into use. It should take a long time, and..." Mo Yunshu turned his head and thought for a while: "With the infiltration power of the Ash Party, maybe they already knew about your experiment, but your experiment is really for the sake of Humans, they have no reason to stop, I... can't figure it out."

"A group of terrorists." Natalie said: "Maybe they just want to destroy it. Don't think about it anymore, take a good rest."

Mo Yunshu nodded, she took Natalie's hand and kissed it lightly on her lips, and said with concern: "Don't work too hard, the road ahead may be even more difficult."

What Mo Yunshu said is not wrong. Not only is the road ahead difficult and dangerous, but the explosion at the Aurora Jumping Station also cut off their back road. This means that there will no longer be a huge human government as their backing. They can only rely on the few remaining human forces, and once these forces rebel, they will be like a turtle in an urn. No army can come to rescue the sower. Potential threats are all over the universe, and the real adventure has just begun.

Leaving the Emerald Space Station, the next human base is in the orbit of Neptune. It is an artificial planet called Last Descendants. There are not many residents on it. They are basically government staff and family members. The number of people can be said to be less than that of the Emerald Space Station. One third, after all, that is already the border of the solar system, no one wants to live so far away from home, and it will take close to two or three months to go there from the Emerald Space Station, which means The Sunseeker will also enter into a tedious flight.

Mo Yunshu tidied up the documents on the podium. Those were all the information about the Ash Party that she had collected these days. In fact, there was not much content compared with the emerald space station, but now to find out the secret of the Ash Party It has become her new fulcrum, and her responsibility to the team has become a strong cornerstone, supporting her fearless progress. Of course, Natalie's help is indispensable for her current cheer. When Mo Yunshu, who had packed up the materials, raised her head At that time, it was Natalie's gentle eyes that met her eyes.

"Don't laugh, you will be discovered." Chen Zi reminded Weier with a suppressed voice. Although the relationship between Natalie and Mo Yunshu was not made public, the two often appeared together, and Natalie was not as obsessed with work as before. , and came to pick up Mo Yunshu from work from time to time, which made the children in the command room gossip.

Chen Zi's reminder didn't help Weier much.

"Ville." Mo Yunshu called.

"Here! Sir!" Weier looked at Chen Zi and Wendy as if asking for help, but it didn't work, because they both avoided his gaze wisely.

"Tell me what are you laughing at?" Mo Yunshu walked to Weier's side, raised her eyebrows and looked at her lovely soldier.

"Report sir, I have an itching on my back." Will definitely couldn't tell the truth.

"Itchy back." Mo Yunshu looked at Weier. In fact, she didn't mind other people guessing about this relationship, but she was the boss, so it would be too outrageous to let these children laugh at her. Mo Yunshu said, "Chen Zi, Supervise Vail to do a hundred sit-ups and that might stop the itch."

"Yes, boss!" Under such circumstances, Chen Zi had no choice but to endure her own gloating, and she replied to Mo Yunshu.

Mo Yunshu winked at Natalie quietly, walked to Natalie with a smile, and the two left the command room generously.Looking at the background of Mo Yunshu who left, Weier asked Chen Zi, "Say, do I still do sit-ups?"

"do it."

The author has something to say:

After leaving the emerald space station, the border of the solar system is about to come, which means that it is not far from H16, and what kind of place is that?What kind of ecosystem does it have?All need to be slowly uncovered by the team members of the Day by Day.Jumping out of this book, let me talk about the source of inspiration for "Whale Fall", which actually comes from the 14 Hugo Award for Best Novel "The Lost South: Annihilation", who was sent to explore a place called X area The story, the interesting thing is that when I was writing "Whale Down" before about 20 chapters, I saw that my favorite movie star Natalie Portman was going to make a "Lost South" movie, and in the It was released in 2018, so I smiled slightly, it's really fate.

Well, pulling back, in fact, "Whale Fall" and "The Lost South" have nothing in common. If you want to draw a relationship, there may only be some places. I am learning to use the "Lovecraftian style" of writing Bar.

In addition, I will post the famous painting "Dead Island" mentioned today on Weibo, and then attach some interesting things.

That's all for now, I wish you all a happy work, life and study!
