Food King [Interstellar]

When Jiang Tang received the news that Luo Xun was coming back, he even ate an extra bowl of rice.Luo Xun said that if there is no delay on the way, it will arrive in one and a half months.Although the time is not short, but finally there is hope.

Before Luo Xun came back, the second batch of immigrants from Spanda was also arriving. The scale of this batch of immigrants was much larger than the previous batch, with more than [-] people.In order to welcome this group of guests, everyone is building infrastructure day and night to provide shelter for newcomers.Different from the simple houses at the beginning, the current houses use local materials, burn bricks to build walls, and cut logs as roofs to build beautiful small bungalows.

Of course, it is impossible to live in such a house with one family at the beginning, maybe two or even three families live together. This is a transitional period and the conditions are difficult, everyone should understand.The first batch of immigrants who arrived showed good adaptability. They integrated into the new environment and new life positively and optimistically. Everyone was united and helped each other, and they were friendly and cooperative, just like a big family.

There is a very obvious phenomenon, the more the society develops, the more advanced the science and technology, the faster the pace of people's life, the more alienated and indifferent the relationship between people.Jiang Tang had a deep understanding of it in the era he lived in, and modern people living in the Milky Way Era have fully demonstrated this phenomenon.However, the new life on the planet Angus gave new immigrants a chance to integrate harmoniously. Housing was scarce and the space was narrow, forcing people to live under the same roof with other people and get along with neighbors in the neighborhood.

Probably the space distance between each other is shortened, and the diaphragm between people is also thinned.The children of several families are playing together, the old people are chatting together, the old people and the children get along so well, how can the young people put on airs, they can’t talk about work, they can still talk about the children, they can’t talk about the children, but they can also communicate and cook Experience.Gradually, there will be more exchanges between everyone, and the relationship will gradually become closer.The old saying "A distant relative is worse than a close neighbor, and a close neighbor is worse than the opposite door" seems to be alive again.

Although the conditions are a bit harsh and the work is a bit tiring, everyone is full and happy in their hearts. Life has goals and goals, and life has become more enjoyable.Empire people often mention happiness, what kind of life is happiness?Happiness does not mean having ample material goods, but being happy and satisfied is the real happiness. In Angus, where everything is scarce, the new immigrants really feel happiness.

Jiang Tang likes this lively and thriving atmosphere very much. When he goes out, everyone who sees him will smile and say hello to him politely. The children also like him. Whenever they see him, they will ask him for snacks, because they all know , only this uncle (brother) can offer snacks, and he will not refuse.Jiang Tang also likes children, so every time he has to find a way to get some snacks, such as French fries, fried cakes, jerky, caramel, fried nuts, etc. Many children are willing to call him Uncle Sugar ( Brother Tang), in the impression of many children, Jiang Tang exudes a sweet smell all over his body, and when he sees him, he feels sweet.

Jiang Tang also knows that this kind of life is too difficult. Everyone is busy solving basic survival problems, and has no energy to pay attention to the unexpected needs of survival. Besides eating enough, children also need other satisfactions, such as snacks, toys, etc. .Daniel has found a plant with a high sugar content, which is being cultivated in large numbers to solve people's demand for sugar.

This day, Jiang Tang asked Li Ang to help him pick peppercorns in the forest. Other spices can be cultivated, but spices like peppercorns, which grow on big trees, cannot be cultivated artificially for a year or so, so they can only go to the forest. pick.

Jiang Tang asked Li Ang to drive the spaceship to stop among the treetops, and he opened the door and bent over to pick the peppercorns.Suddenly, the ship bumped violently, almost throwing Jiang Tang out. He was so frightened that he quickly grabbed the cabin door, and turned to look at Li Ang with lingering fear: "Li Ang, what's the matter?" It was more than 20 meters above the ground, and he fell down. Just die.

However, Li Ang didn't make a sound, he clenched his teeth tightly, his face was distorted and deformed, Jiang Tang was anxious: "Li Ang, are you sick? Stop the spaceship quickly." Finally landed safely, Jiang Tang was also sweating from fright.Only then did I have the time to pay attention to Li Ang. Beads of sweat appeared on Li Ang's face, his lips were pale, and he seemed to be enduring great pain: "What's wrong with you?"

Li Ang pushed open the cabin door, fell sideways on the ground, rolled desperately with his head in his arms, and a beast-like roar came from his throat.Jiang Tang was at a loss for a while, he wanted to go to help, but he couldn't get close at all, he dug out the first aid kit in the spaceship, and found an anesthesia | gun, anesthesia | gun is used to anesthetize animals, the dose is relatively large, he I don't dare to use it.I had no choice but to send a text message to Wen Di for help: "Li Ang is sick, come and help me. We are outside, bring a few more people here, and be strong. I have activated the positioning function, so hurry up."

After hanging up the communication, Jiang Tang tried to stop Li Ang: "Li Ang, what's wrong with you? Are you talking?"

Li Ang didn't answer him. He got up from the ground, hugged a big tree, and slammed his head against the tree trunk, causing his head to bleed immediately.This way of self-mutilation frightened Jiang Tang. When he knocked up for the second time, he hugged Li Ang's waist desperately, pulled him hard, and said loudly: "Li Ang, calm down, what the hell are you doing? gone?"

Li Ang's eyes were red, and his face was covered with blood. He looked extremely ferocious, as if he was not sober.He was hugged by Jiang Tang, so he wanted to get rid of Jiang Tang. Jiang Tang was more than ten centimeters shorter than him, and he was more than one size smaller. Moreover, he was a soldier. Jiang Tang's small body could not stop Li Ang at all, so he went down In an instant, he was thrown out by Li Ang.Jiang Tang fell to the ground, feeling as if his viscera had shifted, he let out a "ouch" in pain, and hearing his voice, Li Ang stopped suddenly, and grabbed his head with both hands: "Hurry up!" ,leave me alone!"

Jiang Tang got up from the ground and looked at Li Ang who was like Shura: "Li Ang, what's wrong with you?"

"Headache! Ah—" Li Ang knelt on the ground, let out a howling sound like a wolf, and hit his head with all his might. The ground was covered with thick fallen leaves. It didn't hurt much to hit it, and it couldn't relieve the pain. Li Ang used only Some rationally control their urge to hit the tree.

Jiang Tang looked anxiously at his painful appearance, and said, "Li Ang, can I give you an anesthesia shot?"

Li Ang seemed to have spent a lot of effort before a vague word "good" came out from between his teeth. Jiang Tang didn't care if the dose was right, took out the anesthesia|gun, and shot the bullet into Li Ang's arm with shaking hands. .After about 3 minutes, the anesthetic finally took effect, and the frenzied Li Ang finally weakened and fell to the ground.

Jiang Tang threw the anesthesia gun, turned Li Ang over and lay down, seeing his messy and bloodstained face, quickly fetched water to wash his face, and carefully wiped the wound with cotton.Li Ang's eyes were closed, but his brows were frowning from time to time. It seemed that even though he was unconscious, it still couldn't alleviate his pain.Jiang Tang felt strange, what was going on, and suddenly fell ill without any symptoms.

Wen Di quickly rushed over with his people, and Daniel also came. He looked at the two people in a panic and said, "What's going on? Could it be that Li Ang used force on you?"

Jiang Tang didn't have time to talk to him, he just described Li Ang's illness to Wen Di.Wen Di stretched out his hand to check Li Ang's eyelids, and said, "Take it back for an examination, and nothing can be seen on the surface."

In the base hospital, Wen Di gave Li Ang a comprehensive and detailed examination, then called Jiang Tang, pointed to a certain place on the film and said: "I suspect that Li Ang's illness comes from this point in his brain. This is a non-metallic object, we Scanned out with the most sophisticated instruments. It should be a chip."

Jiang Tang looked at the slightly darker part of the film with wide eyes, and asked Wendi, "What chip?"

Wen Di pondered for a moment, and said: "Jiang Tang, I will tell you about this first, you must be mentally prepared. According to my guess, Li Ang may be a clone."

Jiang Tang was dumbfounded: "Is Li Ang a Clone?"

Wen Di said: "I once heard that the imperial government is conducting an experiment, intending to use clones to replace the existing army. This matter was met with a majority of opposition votes in the parliament, so it was dropped. Now it seems that The imperial government has not given up on this experiment."

It took a while for Jiang Tang's brain to function normally: "But, isn't cloning human beings strongly prohibited?" Cloning human beings had already been realized in the 21st century of the solar calendar, which caused great shock and shock in human society at that time. Panic, if people can be cloned, then people will become immortal, and they will be cloned from generation to generation, which seriously violates the laws of nature. Therefore, international conventions stipulate that human beings can never be cloned. Cloning technology can only be used in the field of medicine, and at the maximum can only clone human organs to rescue patients who need organ replacement. This agreement has been followed so far.

"But there are always some lunatics who want to do things against humanity and against nature." Wendi said, "Li Ang's identity is sensitive. I guess the imperial government probably doesn't want him to be known to the outside world. They probably got the idea that Li Ang has joined the revolution. Because of the news from the military, he activated the chip installed in his body. He self-mutilated and destroyed him through brain wave interference."

Jiang Tang clenched his fists and looked at Wendi: "Then what should we do?"

Wendi sighed: "I can't make the decision on this matter, we need a meeting to decide."

"What will happen to Li Ang? He won't be humanely destroyed, right?" Jiang Tang looked at Li Ang on the hospital bed, and remembered the day when he stood up and followed him. At that time, he said that he never had the chance to choose his own life. Now Wanting to choose his own life, this is what he was referring to, Jiang Tang clenched his teeth angrily.

Wen Di said: "I don't know either, brother Xun is not here now, it's just us, we have to have a meeting to discuss."

Jiang Tang stopped Wendi: "Wendi, can you not tell everyone about this, but secretly help him perform an operation and take out the chip in his body?"

Wen Di patted his hand: "I can understand your feelings, but the matter is important, and I can't make decisions privately. Don't worry, although Li Ang was created, he already has an independent personality, just like us. people, we will not destroy them humanely, otherwise what is the difference with the people who made them?"

Hearing this, Jiang Tang breathed a sigh of relief: "Then when will he be operated on? I think he can't control himself at all when he has an attack, and it's extremely painful."

Wendi said: "His operation is not an ordinary operation. Have you seen where the chip is located? This is the densest place in the central nervous system. I don't know how long the chip has been implanted. If it was implanted very early, It may be all grown together with the nerves, so the degree of difficulty is very, very high, and a little carelessness will cause irreversible damage."

"Will it be disabled?" Jiang Tang asked.

Wendi didn't speak, it was a tacit agreement.

Jiang Tang murmured, "Even you can't do this operation?"

Wen Di said: "Of course I can do it, but I can't do it hastily. I have to make sure plans for all possible accidents."

Jiang Tang thought of another situation: "Is the medical condition here too bad?"

Jiang Tang said: "This is not a big problem. I have to gather all Angus' doctors for consultation. So this must be decided after a meeting."

That afternoon, they held a high-level meeting on Li Ang's issue, and Jiang Tang was also allowed to attend the meeting.Wen Di introduced Li Ang's situation.Pete said calmly, "He really is a clone."

Ever since Jiang Tang knew that Pete regarded him as a spy, he hadn't looked at him directly. Now that he heard him say that, he turned his head to look at him. How did he know?Daniel helped him ask the question in his heart: "How do you know?"

Pete said: "When I registered their identities, Leon's identity information was marked with an 's', and the captain knew it."

Wen Di said: "I plan to perform brain surgery on him to remove the chip in his brain. But this operation is relatively dangerous, so I will call all the doctors in Angus to come for consultation."

Pete said: "Since it is confirmed that he is a clone, the chip will not be taken out in a hurry. We need to use him as a witness to expose the imperial government's conspiracy."

Daniel frowned: "Then let the chip stay in his brain?"

Jiang Tang gritted his teeth: "If the chip is not removed, he will die!"

Pete glanced at Jiang Tang coldly: "Even if you have an operation, you may die!"

Jiang Tang almost rushed to tear Pete up, but was caught by Wen Di, who gave Jiang Tang a comforting look: "If he is safe, he can better testify for us, so I think this operation must be done. And we can make the surgery into a feature documentary."

Fei Qi said lazily: "There's nothing to argue about, we'll just express our opinion as a group. Those who agree to the operation raise their hands." After speaking, he raised his hand first.

Jiang Tang glanced at Fei Qi gratefully and raised his hand.A total of five people attended the meeting, including Jiang Tang. Except for Pete who disagreed, the rest agreed with the surgery.Wendi put away the information: "Okay, I will call a doctor's consultation tonight, and try to perform the operation in the shortest possible time."
