Chapter 42 The Beginning

"Finally home."

Li Chu looked at the opened base door with a smile. Everything inside was fine, because Jean would come back every one or two days, spend a few hours checking the situation in the base, and then harvest the crops in the farmland. , or add some nutrient solution to the robot.

It has been four months since they stepped out from the base. In the past four months, the construction plan on the Zhengpian grassland has been completed. Fortunately, the sun is still shining on this land and has not extinguished.

Now they have probably guessed why the sun has not disappeared. It is not a natural factor, but man-made, because there is a sky in the sky. They must have done something to prevent the entire planet from being covered by darkness. shrouded.

"They must be doing some scientific experiments up there, right? Why don't we think of a way to build a spaceship and leave here directly?"

Li Chu said, and Deguna immediately retorted.

"Do you think it can be done under the current conditions? We lack too many high-precision instruments, so we will not be able to make a rocket. Even if we do, it will fail under such harsh conditions."

Li Chu laughed helplessly. He was just talking. Now they don't have any means of remote observation. They can only guess some facts based on clouds and solar dimensions, including the energy of solar radiation, but basically they are inseparable. Ten.

After entering the base, everyone went directly to the kitchen. They planned to have a drink and then get busy.

A lot of cans were taken out from the warehouse. Everyone started to get some of their favorite foods, and then started cooking in the kitchen.

"Are we too irresponsible?"

Ellie's expression was slightly sad, Gene patted her shoulder and said.

"What we do now is far more important than managing others."

The eight people have planned to build a civilized city for mankind here. Such a city requires a lot of technological planning, so they must implement some technologies that humans already have, and then develop some practical technologies for the current world. Only in this way can we ensure the survival of mankind.

"Although it is true that once we leave, they will most likely fall into disputes, but there is nothing we can do about it because we have to do this."

As Witte said, everyone looked at him with some surprise, and he smiled helplessly and said.

"I've seen a lot of things and thought a lot these days. I think it's immature to manage humans now, because it's difficult to manage everything, and we don't have that much energy to manage."

After a while, everyone started drinking. Tang Rao happily ate the canned food and she lay comfortably on the chair. This period of time was really too cumbersome for the eight of them.

Many people need to be taught step by step, and problems always arise. Many times they can only use force to calm everything down.

This was a great mental torture for the eight people. Now that everything is over, they have helped the humans on the grassland plan their construction for the next ten or even twenty years.

As long as humans can proceed according to their plan, there won't be any big problems in the next ten years, but at this time everyone felt that Jean's expression was a little different.

"You still can't let go?"

Ellie asked and Gene shook his head.

"It's not that I can't let go, but I always feel that maybe it has started."

Gene said, putting down the wine glass in his hand, then took a sip of wine, and after eating some food, he planned to turn back.

"You mean they've started to mess up?"

Jean nodded.

"You can't stop it, or even solve it. Let them fend for themselves. If they like chaos, let them bear it. After all, many people are very selfish in this era, but It’s understandable.”

"I just want to take a look. I won't do anything. Even if a war does break out tonight, I won't do anything. I just want to take a look."

Ellie got up and walked over, but Gene said.

"I can go alone."

Then Gene left the base directly and jumped to the opposite hillside in an instant. He was exuding blue particles and quickly disappeared from sight.

Another reason why Jean and the others want to come back is that their own power has begun to be a little out of control. It seems that the more times they use power, the stronger the power will be. Jean also discovered that these released blue particles, It has higher energy than the light blue particles.

This kind of power can allow Jean to shuttle through the mountains and forests faster. What everyone is most worried about now is that they cannot control the power. The person who is most worried is Deguna. Others are fine. As long as they don't use power, they won't be able to control the power. Let the power go unchecked.

Deguna is different, her body is constantly getting younger, which is good for anyone to rejuvenate, but if it continues, she will most likely become a baby.

This is the conclusion that everyone came to after carefully studying Deguna's cells.

"The future shouldn't be too bad."

Soon Jean had climbed over several mountains, and he could vaguely see the grassland in the distance. He stopped. It had only been 10 minutes at most. Jean stared at the grassland in front of him and took out a cigarette.

In fact, Gene was worried. In the four months on the grassland, Gene saw a lot of things. Not everyone was so greedy and wanted to take everything for themselves. There were still many kind people who were willing to share with others.

Gene was worried about these people. They would not deliberately create conflicts, and they often knew how to be humble. There were still many such people, because they felt that having food and drink was enough now.

But it was obvious that most people didn't think so. Before returning, Gene and his friends went to Jade's base again. Gene found that Jade had changed. When talking to them, his eyes were always evasive. After asking some people a little, Gene also saw some clues.

If this continued, it would be sooner or later that war broke out on the grassland, because there were too many people. In a society with such a large number of people, and in such an era, it was impossible for them to synchronize.

"Do we have to watch everything happen?"

Gene once thought that if a war really broke out, he would use force to solve all problems, because many difficult problems in the past were solved through war.

War is something that can make people regress. Now, as long as everyone takes a step back and lives in peace according to the agreement planned by Gene and others before, it will be fine, but it is difficult to do.

Especially the guy named Allen in the fortress, he has been learning chemistry-related knowledge. Gu Yi also praised Allen for being very studious, but behind his studious nature, it was just his plan.

Gene had heard about the theft that happened in the mine after they left. After listening to it, he roughly thought of something. Gene then asked Jed, but Jed insisted that it was the foreman's problem.

Then Gene asked the foreman's wife, she cried and hoped that Gene would help him to get justice, and said that the foreman accepted Allen's conditions and started stealing supplies, but in the end, Allen pushed the matter cleanly on the foreman, and the foreman's men were the same.

Hearing this, Gene felt helpless, because he knew very well that no matter how long it had been, human beings would still be the same, even in the future, they would not change.

Gene just looked down at the grassland quietly. Now some human cabins have been built in the forest. The area of ​​the forest is still disappearing very quickly. Although Gene has said that they should stop cutting down trees, it is obviously useless.

Even if the use of force to scare these cutters is only temporary and can only be used for a while.

"This land needs order."

Gene said with a smile. He knew very well that if he wanted to stabilize everything, he had to establish order on this grassland, otherwise, everything would be in vain.

And it is not easy to establish order, because there is no way to integrate them together.

"We can only wait and wait until the gangs have completely completed their separatism before we start."

........

4 o'clock in the afternoon

The heat of the sun's rays dissipated, and Allen got up and closed the book. He smiled and looked at the people who had gathered in a small scale outside the fortress. It has only been more than a month, and some gang leaders can't sit still.

Constantly creating friction, many people on their side have been harassed by these gangs. When they go out to work or exchange for something, they are always deliberately made difficult, and the other party always creates some conflicts and then fights with each other for an excuse.

A few days ago, three people in the fortress were beaten to death. Although everyone in the fortress advocated going out directly to destroy this small gang, Allen communicated well with the leader of the other party and resolved the "conflict".

Allen knew that he had to be patient at this time. If they really took action, other gangs would have a pretext and attack them legitimately. Now they are still a little worried, that is, they are afraid that they will be attacked from behind by other gangs.

Many gangs have already set their sights on this fortress, but no one can guarantee that the gangs can work together to capture the fortress. Allen will certainly not give them any chance at this juncture.

Since early this morning, Allen has strictly ordered his men not to leave the fortress again.

Sure enough, an hour ago, a group of people came and clamored, asking them to send people to assist in the construction. Allen refused them on the grounds that many people were sick and needed arable land.

Allen knew which groups were provoking the dispute, but the time was not right now. He had to let them do it first and then start to fight back. This was reasonable.

Jed would send all the information through transactions from time to time. These information were true, because the men Allen had planted also proved this. This made Allen feel at ease. Jed was indeed a trustworthy partner.

As long as Allen could withstand the attack, Jed would be able to exert his strength, because once the fight started, the demand for some drugs would inevitably increase.

Now the place where the drugs were built was still in the territory controlled by Jed, so when these gangs needed drugs, they would definitely go to Jed and his gang for them. Jed only needed to move a little to make these determined guys red-eyed, and Jed and his gang could only passively defend.

At that time, it will not be up to these guys to decide. Alan has discussed this with Jed in detail. They must seize control of this area legitimately in order to stabilize the situation.

For those gangs that caused the war, the local people will definitely not support them. Instead, the two groups Jed and Allen who solved the dispute can get the support of the locals. If they continue to implement this step by step, they Only then can a complete set of order be established in this area.

Some of the current disputes were created by Allen. Although the methods were a little inferior, they were very useful.

Allen has equipped 300 people with crossbows, as well as blades for melee combat and medium and short-range spears, and nearly 50 people have been equipped with firearms.

The current reinforcement progress of the fortress is very slow. Although it has learned the technology of making some cement, if it is to be made successfully, the conditions do not allow it and the only way is to keep trying.

The front fortress wall is being reinforced every day to prevent the enemy from setting fire. As long as we can get through, everything will be fine. Moreover, they only fight those gangs to protect themselves.

Other gangs on the periphery would not attack rashly, they had already planned it. At this time, dozens of people gathered at the gate, and one of them shouted with a microphone.

"What on earth do you mean? It has been agreed that everyone should take turns to work, but now your people have not gone to work for many days, but your work has been lost to us."

Allen stood up, leaned out and looked at the people below, and immediately the leader with the microphone asked again.

"Mr. Allen, you have to give a reasonable explanation."

Allen said calmly.

"Of course we can't go out. Three people in my fortress were killed a few days ago, and there are always problems coming to our people these days. I believe this is not for no reason, right?"

The people below started shouting again. Allen didn't plan to take care of them. The leader kept talking. He saw that the people in the fortress had picked up their weapons and looked like they wanted to rush out. Allen immediately went down to stop a bunch of people.

"Uncle, this..."

"I told you Nick, no one is allowed to do anything without my permission. I will go out and have a good talk with them first."

Allen led several of his men out of the fortress with guns on their backs. As soon as they left, the leader approached with his men.

"What do you mean Alan?"

Allen looked at this small gang of only seventy or eighty people. Now that they dared to shout at their own door, he could be sure that the people in the big gang behind them were very anxious.
