[Chapter 1779 Target Moon]
The three of Chen Nanfeng did not leave for a long time, watching the obsidian flying boat disappear from their field of vision, and then quickly flew out of the range covered by mental power, the three still maintained their posture of looking up at the sky.
After a long time, Chen Nanfeng sighed and said, “Two fellow Daoists, I don’t know if it’s a blessing or a curse for them to go!”
This time, Chen Nanfeng not only sent Shen Tianfang, an important elder in the sect, but also his own son, Chen Xuan. They were also in the expedition; as for Liu Mansha’s Feihua Valley, the elder Yang Liu and Liu Mansha’s direct disciple Yu Xiner were also sent, so the three of them were in the same mood at the moment.
Mu Sheng sighed and said, “Brother Chen, even if you know that this trip is dangerous, if you choose again, you will definitely agree with Nephew Chen to go!”
Chen Nanfeng smiled bitterly and said, “Yes! Since you have embarked on the path of cultivation, you must be prepared to face all dangers and challenges. The flowers in the greenhouse can’t stand the real wind and rain!”
Liu Mansha pursed her lips and said with a smile: “Two fellow Taoists, why are you more sentimental than me? No other monk can ask for such an opportunity! To be honest, I am a little envious of them. If If I can pass the screening of that piece of music, I will join in without hesitation!”
“That’s true…” Chen Nanfeng said, “If a cultivator doesn’t even have the courage to take risks, his achievements in cultivation must be limited!”
“Haha! Brother Chen and Master Liu Gu, they are gone, let’s not worry about it here!” Mu Sheng said with a smile, “Isn’t there a saying? Children and grandchildren have their own blessings! Even if we regret it now, I can’t catch up with them! So ah! Don’t think about anything, just go back and wait patiently! But I heard that you have a lot of good wine hidden, and your famous wild tea, don’t go back and search this time. Yes, take it all out and share it with everyone!”
Chen Nanfeng said with a smile: “No problem! Let’s go! I asked the disciples to prepare a banquet, let’s have a good drink!”
The three of them left the small square of the resort and walked towards the main building.
In the future, this resort will not open its doors to welcome guests again, and Mu Sheng and Liu Mansha will also stay here.
The affairs of their sect have been arranged, and the only thing to do now is to wait patiently here.
Before departure, Chen Nanfeng and Xia Ruofei also made it clear that they would still choose to land here when they return.
If this trip goes well, Xia Ruofei and the others will come back in about two months.
And two months is not a big deal for Jindan stage practitioners, and the time to close a small gate is longer than this, so Mu Sheng, Liu Mansha and others are too lazy to toss back and forth, and simply stay here Just stay and wait patiently.
…
On the obsidian flying boat, Xia Ruofei and others have also been standing on the front deck, looking at the rapidly shrinking scene below.
Soon, the lights of the thousands of houses on the ground were like stars, and there was even a feeling that the world was upside down in a trance.
The obsidian flying boat kept rising at a uniform speed, and when it reached an altitude of about 3,000 meters, Xia Ruofei asked everyone to start wearing extravehicular spacesuits.
But this time he did not stop the flying boat, but let the flying boat continue to climb at a constant speed.
Unconsciously, the spacecraft has reached an altitude of about 400 kilometers.
At this time, everyone was already in a state of weightlessness, but everyone still stayed on the deck. Anyway, the Obsidian Flying Boat opened the shielding barrier and the protective barrier, and it was impossible for everyone to float outside because of weightlessness.
On the contrary, in the process of rising altitude, the magnificent scenery outside is more attractive, so no one wants to go back to the cabin.
Now everyone is at an orbital altitude of 400 kilometers. Standing on the deck of the Obsidian flying boat, you can already see the huge outline of the blue earth, the hazy halo on the dividing line between morning and evening, and the scattered city lights.
The rare and magnificent scenery gives a very shocking feeling.
Standing on the deck of this obsidian flying boat, the line of sight is completely unobstructed, and the viewing angle is excellent.
It can be said that such a scenery, among billions of people on earth, only a few people can appreciate it.
Astronauts are already one in a million or even one in a million, but not all astronauts have the opportunity to see such a scenery. Except for a few astronauts who have spacewalking experience, everyone else is in the spacecraft. , in the experimental cabin and even in the space station, those who observe the earth through the small portholes will always see parts. How can there be such an unobstructed angle now?
In fact, the Obsidian Flying Boat does not keep rising in a straight line. The route it takes is somewhat similar to the trajectory of a rocket launch, but it is steeper than the normal rocket launch trajectory.
However, at an orbital altitude of 400 kilometers, the Obsidian flying boat is basically in a state of flying around the earth.
According to the original plan, everyone would have to change to the Dragon spacecraft at this altitude, so the Obsidian flying boat completely stopped climbing the altitude under the control of Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile on the communication channel: “Let’s take a good look at this scenery! After entering the spaceship in a while, there is no such a wide field of vision!”
Chen Xuan said with a smile: “It doesn’t matter, the viewing angle of the spacecraft is also good! Besides, everyone doesn’t have much interest in appreciating the beautiful scenery. Let’s enjoy this kind of scenery slowly on the return journey!”
“Haha! Brother Chen is right!” Xia Ruofei said with a smile, “Then everyone prepare, let’s transfer to the spaceship immediately!”
After finishing speaking, Xia Ruofei kicked the ground lightly and flew upwards lightly. He grabbed the top of the obsidian flying boat and came to the small deck area at the rear of the flying boat a little awkwardly.
Chen Xuan and others also followed Xia Ruofei and came to the stern deck together.
The stern deck was much smaller than the bow deck, so it was a bit crowded with nine people in extravehicular spacesuits coming here together.
With a thought, Xia Ruofei took out the dragon spaceship assembly from the spiritual map space.
The huge dragon spaceship instantly appeared in the dark space, suspended not far from the tail of the Obsidian Flying Boat, and remained relatively still with the Obsidian Flying Boat.
At the moment when the dragon spaceship combination appeared, Xia Ruofei had activated the shielding formation of the spaceship with his mental power.
At the front end of the Dragon spacecraft assembly, five traction ropes have been placed in advance, which Xia Ruofei specially asked Li Yifu to customize in the United States while waiting for the last batch of extravehicular spacesuits.
These five traction ropes are all made of high-strength alloy materials, and two hooks cast with the same material are installed on both ends of each one. Xia Ruofei has already put these five ropes in advance during the last verification flight. The leash was hung up first.
The two hooks at the front end of each traction rope are hung on different extravehicular armrests at the front end of the Dragon spacecraft assembly.
Now, due to the weightlessness in space, the five traction ropes are all suspended in a twisted shape.
Xia Ruofei directly grabbed the five traction ropes with mental power, pulled them all over, and hung the hooks at different positions on the side of the Obsidian flying boat.
This kind of alloy hook has a strong spring. When you want to release the buckle, you need to use more force to achieve it, so unless the spring fails, it is basically impossible to release it by yourself.
Five traction ropes are used at one time, and each traction rope has two hooks at each end, which is quite reliable. With so many insurances, the probability of problems at the same time is almost zero.
Moreover, Xia Ruofei also asked Li Yifu to customize ten identical traction ropes, which are now placed in the space for backup. If there is a problem with the traction rope during the sailing, it can be replaced at any time.
It can be said that Xia Ruofei has achieved the ultimate in safety protection.
After he connected the dragon spacecraft assembly and the Obsidian flying boat with a traction rope, Xia Ruofei probed into the cockpit of the spacecraft, turned on the main power switch, and then made preparations for the transfer in an orderly manner.
Finally, after the decompression procedure, some of the doors of the orbital cabin of the Dragon spacecraft were opened remotely by Xia Ruofei using mental power control.
Xia Ruofei turned to look at everyone and said, “The orbital cabin is relatively small, so we will enter in two batches according to the original plan. The first group below will enter the cabin with me first!”
This process has been deduced several times on the ground in advance, including the groupings, which are also divided in advance, so when the actual operation is carried out, everyone is in an orderly manner.
Ling Qingxue, Chen Xuan, Yang Liu, and Yu Xiner followed Xia Ruofei and floated towards the Dragon Spaceship combination.
After a while, all five people entered the orbital cabin.
Then, Xia Ruofei closed the cabin door from the inside, and then the spacecraft computer began to check the airtightness of the cabin, released the air in the high-pressure gas cylinder, and began to pressurize the orbital cabin.
In fact, as the main channel for entering and exiting the cabin, the orbital cabin of the Dragon spacecraft carried 8 high-pressure gas cylinders in one motion, and each pressurization and decompression were operated through the gas cylinders.
Pressurization is the process of releasing the air in the cylinder. Only when the air pressure in the cabin is balanced with the air pressure in other cabins can the doors to other cabins be opened; while decompression is just the opposite, using the inside of the cylinder. The device sucks air into the cabin to form a vacuum in the cabin, so that the air pressure in the cabin is the same as the air pressure in outer space, and the door of the cabin can be opened.
In theory, the air in the high-pressure gas cylinder can be reused, but every time the process of pressurizing or depressurizing, there will inevitably be a certain loss, and there is a probability of failure, so this time Xia Ruofei specifically asked to carry a few more. The high-pressure gas cylinder is to prevent failures after multiple operations in and out of the cabin.
Of course, even if all the high-pressure gas cylinders fail, Xia Ruofei will not be trapped in the spacecraft.
The spacecraft is also designed with a manual decompression device, which can compress the air directly into space, thereby creating a vacuum in the cabin.
The process of pressurization is even simpler. Xia Ruofei and the others all carry a sufficient amount of oxygen supply modules. If all the high-pressure gas cylinders are to fail, they will directly release the oxygen stored in the oxygen supply module after closing the hatch. The cabin can also be pressurized.
After a while, the pressure in the orbital cabin was completed. Xia Ruofei’s mental power detected that the control panel of the cockpit showed that the air pressure in the orbital cabin was completely consistent with other cabins, and the air quality met the requirements.
So, Xia Ruofei asked everyone to take off the extravehicular spacesuit and each received the magic treasure.
Then, he opened the hatch leading to the other cabins.
According to the original plan, Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue came to the front cockpit of the spacecraft.
And Chen Xuan, Yang Liu and Yu Xiner went to another rest cabin on the side that was about the size of the orbital cabin.
Chen Xuan, who was the last to leave the orbital cabin, tightly closed and locked the airtight doors leading to other cabins from the orbital cabin. In this way, the orbital cabin was completely isolated from other cabins.
Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue sat on the seats in the cockpit.
By design, the cockpit can accommodate up to four astronauts, and four astronauts in extravehicular spacesuits.
Therefore, it is still very spacious to accommodate only Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue, who are wearing work clothes in the cabin.
Xia Ruofei accurately found the button to decompress the orbital cabin in the cockpit and pressed it down. The control panel showed that the orbital cabin had returned to a vacuum state again.
sonicmtl.com Xia Ruofei then used mental power to remotely control and open the orbital cabin door.
Then, he said in the communication channel: “Elder Shen, the spaceship is ready, please bring your group and start entering the cabin!”
According to the pre-rehearsal process, Elder Shen Tianfang of Tianyimen was the leader of the second group. He brought Xu Yurou, a disciple of Qi-refining stage in his own door, and Mu Sheng and Mu Jianfei of Canglangmen, a total of four people. They also floated smoothly to the Dragon spacecraft assembly, and entered the orbital cabin in order.
Shen Tianfang personally closed the airtight door leading to outer space.
Then Xia Ruofei operated in the cockpit to pressurize the orbital cabin again.
When the air pressure in the orbital cabin returned to the same level as other cabins, Xia Ruofei told Shen Tianfang and others in the communication channel that he could take off the extravehicular space suit.
Shen Tianfang and his party took off the bulky extravehicular space suits and put them into their own storage magic weapon, then they opened the airtight door from the orbital module to other cabins.
In this way, all the cabins in the Dragon spacecraft combination are in a connected state, and everyone’s activity space is relatively spacious.
Considering the size of the living space, this combination is even larger than Huaxia’s Tiangong series of space laboratories. After all, it is composed of several cabins.
If it is to use conventional means to build this combination, at least several rocket launches are required, and then delicate orbit changes, docking and other operations are required on the orbit, which costs huge amounts of money.
And Xia Ruofei put the spacecraft assembly in the spiritual map space, and took the spacecraft to the 400-kilometer orbit. It’s not too easy!
Everyone has entered the cabin, and Xia Ruofei sitting in the cockpit said with a smile: “Everyone is ready? We are going to officially set off to the moon!”
