Chapter 19: ‘Life Forbidden Zone’

Sleep is also a kind of energy accumulation for humans. High-quality sleep can allow all functions of the body to get enough rest, so that you can be more energetic after waking up. In addition, sleep can reduce the consumption of body energy, which is a very good method.

Li Ming can now control his sleep. After the body and brain enter the dormant state, there will be an independent place in the brain that will continue to work. When the body functions normally, this working part of the brain is like a warning device to ensure the safety of the surrounding environment of the body and the normal operation of the body's functions.

This makes Li Ming more comfortable with the consumption, use, and replenishment of body energy.

"Beep..."

The vibration and the ringtone sounded quickly. It was caused by the incoming call of the mobile phone. Li Ming's eyes opened slightly and the call was automatically connected.

"I'm at the gate of the community, come down." Hu Kai's voice came.

Li Ming did not reply, the phone was automatically hung up, and looking at the sky again, it was already early morning. Unknowingly, a night had passed. This feeling was not like the conversion of time, but how much energy was consumed in the body to maintain life.

Li Ming stood up, turned around, opened the door and left the house.

There was a car parked at the entrance of the community. The driver Xiao He was loading Meng Lianyi's suitcase into the trunk. Hu Kai and Meng Lianyi were chatting. When she saw Li Ming coming, Meng Lianyi greeted him and waved.

Hu Kai said, "Hurry up, we're waiting for you."

When Li Ming came closer, the three of them got into the car together. The driver Xiao He had already returned to the driver's seat and started the car and drove away.

Meng Lianyi took out her phone, swiped the screen a few times, and said, "I have checked online these days. The meteorite fell in the uninhabited area west of City Z."

"Uninhabited area?!" Hu Kai immediately showed a reluctant expression and continued, "Are we going to that kind of place?"

Meng Lianyi suddenly snorted, and her angry eyes slowly turned to Hu Kai, but before she said anything, Hu Kai nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, I heard that some people would enter the uninhabited area to explore and cross the uninhabited area. We are just crossing the uninhabited area."

Meng Lianyi slapped Hu Kai a few times angrily and said, "I We are not crossing the no-man's land, we are going to look for meteorites. Have you read the message I sent you yesterday? Have you prepared what I asked you to prepare? "

Hu Kai suddenly looked serious and said, "Of course I have prepared everything you asked me to prepare. I have also checked online. The vehicle crossing the no-man's land must be a relatively hardcore off-road vehicle, and the vehicle must be in good condition, otherwise it will be difficult to repair if it breaks down. The vehicle must also be equipped with a tractor to avoid dealing with the harsh environment. I have contacted the branch in Z City and prepared everything you think is necessary. "

"That's about right..." Meng Lianyi hummed lightly and showed satisfaction.

Li Ming on the side was silent, his eyes slightly closed, and he naturally heard clearly what Meng Lianyi said just now, and at the same time, the content in the other party's mobile phone was also in Li Ming's control.

This meteorite that appeared in Z City has been confirmed many times on the Internet, by astronomy enthusiasts and some experts. Because it is a meteorite that fell to the ground, it will also attract some attention. After the analysis of these professionals and multiple evidence judgments, the approximate area where the meteorite may fall has been given.

But this area is just as Meng Lianyi said, it is an uninhabited area.

The so-called uninhabited area is a region with a bad environment, resulting in many places without any grass, and a large area of ​​desert Gobi, making it difficult for humans to survive there, so the uninhabited area has become a veritable "forbidden zone for life".

To say that the uninhabited area is desolate does not mean that there is absolutely no human habitation, but that the population is extremely sparse. On average, there is less than one person per square kilometer of the ground, and more often there is no human habitation for dozens or even hundreds of kilometers.

Moreover, the area of ​​the uninhabited area is huge. The uninhabited area to the west of Z City is 50,000 square kilometers, but in C country, the largest uninhabited area is 300,000 square kilometers, so the uninhabited area in Z City is still relatively small.

Li Ming quickly filtered the content in Meng Lianyi's mobile phone in his mind. There was not much valuable information. Among them, there were several pieces of information that some astronomy enthusiasts had organized groups to go to the area to look for meteorites, but they all found nothing.

In addition, the weather is getting colder, and winter is very unsuitable to enter the uninhabited area, so choosing to enter at this time requires extreme caution.

Another thing worth mentioning is about this meteorite. According to the previous astronomical forecast, this meteorite was not large when it entered the Earth's atmosphere and did not disappear in the friction of the atmosphere, which means that this meteorite is a high-density and high-quality meteorite with great value.

As far as this speculation is concerned, Li Ming has every reason to believe that Hu Kai will have a lot of ideas about this meteorite. I am afraid this is also the biggest motivation for his trip. Otherwise, how could such a guy who is busy with business every day take the time and effort to run so far? If you force it to be for Meng Lianyi, it is not realistic.

After filtering this information, the vehicle that the three people were riding in has arrived at the airport, and the driver Xiao He does not need to accompany them for the rest of the things.

Meng Lianyi's luggage was taken by Li Ming, because Hu Kai had an injury on his right arm, which was inconvenient. After entering the airport, he took out the tickets he had bought in advance. There was still some time before boarding, so he could only wait in the lobby.

This was Li Ming's first time taking a plane, but the process and cognition seemed to have been done countless times by Li Ming, very clear and familiar. These cognitions appeared in his brain invisibly, without the need to learn or check anything.

Perhaps this is the ability of a higher civilization. After a short wait, the boarding broadcast sounded: Passengers, please note: Your flight CU76xx is now boarding. Please take your personal belongings, get your boarding pass, and board plane No. 17 from gate 4. I wish you a pleasant journey. Thank you!

Li Ming, Hu Kai and others got up from their seats and prepared to board the plane. After a series of processes, the three of them had entered the plane. It takes two hours to fly from City T to City Z. Time is no longer a concept for Li Ming, because for humans, time is life span, and even a healthy body will face physical failure after a hundred years.

Li Ming is different. As long as he reduces the consumption of body energy as much as possible, his life span can be sustained.

Two hours passed in a blink of an eye. The plane landed slowly. As soon as Hu Kai and others appeared, two men and one woman appeared and took over Li Ming's luggage. At the same time, they had prepared the vehicle.

"Mr. Hu, we have arranged a hotel. You can rest first." A man in black in his thirties said as soon as he came forward.

"Ah... that..." Hu Kai was about to say something, but when he saw Meng Lianyi's eyes, he waved his left hand and said, "That's not necessary. You prepare the things and vehicles I need. I will leave in a while."

The man in black hesitated and looked embarrassed.

Hu Kai was a little unhappy and said, "What do you mean? Don't you understand me?"

The man in black waved his hands and said, "No, no, Mr. Hu told you before you came that if you insist on going to the no-man's land today, the company must send more vehicles to follow you to ensure your safety."

"But don't worry, the additional vehicles only have a doctor and a nurse in addition to the driver, and some supplies. It won't cause you any trouble. After all, your arm injury hasn't healed yet." The man in black continued.

Hu Kai frowned suddenly and said, "Is this what the old man meant?!"

"Yes." The man in black replied.

Hu Kai looked at Meng Lianyi helplessly. Meng Lianyi looked at the bandage on Hu Kai's arm at this time, and then said, "This is good, so that if something unexpected happens, I can't explain it to your old man, and everyone won't be embarrassed."

Hu Kai could only wave his hands and said impatiently, "Okay, okay, then you arrange it."
