The Science Fiction World of Xueba

Pang Xuelin opened his eyes, and an unprecedented sense of clarity flooded his eyes. The morning light outside the window was faint, and the morning breeze came in through the gaps in the window. The curtains moved with the wind. Pang Xuelin could clearly see the patterns on the curtains, and even vaguely smelled them A hint of herbal fragrance.

He closed his eyes and took a greedy breath.

The atmospheric environment naturally bred by countless life activities on the earth is many times more comfortable than the artificial atmosphere on Mars.

The system's rewards are also very powerful. Pang Xuelin feels that everything he sees with his eyes has become clearer than ever before, even much clearer than when wearing glasses, just like a newborn baby opening his eyes to see the world for the first time.

Pang Xuelin slowly got up from the bed and suddenly returned to reality. The gravity environment of the earth made him a little uncomfortable.

But fortunately, his body does not seem to have the discomfort caused by living in a low-gravity environment for a long time, and his muscle strength is still there.

What the system builds should only be a mental space. My mental body travels to various planes, and my body is still preserved in reality.

While thinking, Pang Xuelin picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table, and the time was displayed as 5:21 on October 6, 2019.

He spent six or seven years in the world of The Martian (five years on Mars, and more than a year on the return trip), but in reality he only spent more than five hours.

But in reality, his body seemed to be in a state of deep sleep all the time, and Pang Xuelin didn't feel so tired, instead he felt refreshed.

"Comfortable!"

Pang Xuelin stretched and got up from the bed.

No one spoke for a long time on Mars, and he was almost suffering from aphasia.

After the arrival of the Ares 4 mission team, after a year of training, Pang Xuelin slowly recovered his language status.

Pang Xuelin came to the bathroom and was about to wash up. When he looked up, he saw himself in the mirror, which surprised him.

In the past, Pang Xuelin gave people the impression that he was a bit gentle, and even because of his age, he was still a little student-like, making him appear immature.

But now, although Pang Xuelin's appearance has not changed much, after years of tempering in the harsh environment of Mars, Pang Xuelin has long since faded from his immaturity as a student.

Especially those eyes, black and bright, unusually clear, with a faint sense of vicissitudes.

Pang Xuelin couldn't tell whether this change was good or bad, but there was no doubt that the experience of The Martian made him undergo a radical change.

After changing into sportswear, Pang Xuelin was ready to go out for a walk.

He has not experienced everything on earth for a long, long time, the flowers and trees, the singing of birds and flowers, the hustle and bustle of the city...everything makes him miss.

In the past, Pang Xuelin liked quietness and didn't like that kind of noisy environment.

But after living alone on Mars for so many years, he missed the real world more and more, and even the unpleasant car exhaust smelled sweet in his nose.

Pang Xuelin opened the door. Just as he took a step, the opposite door suddenly opened, and his beautiful neighbor Qi Xin, whom he hadn't seen for many years, also came out.

"Hey, junior, you... why are you so early today?"

Qi Xin glanced over Pang Xuelin, and then met Pang Xuelin's eyes. As if he had been shocked, he turned his head away quickly, not daring to look at Pang Xuelin.

It's strange, although this cheap junior of mine used to be a little handsome, he seems to be a different person today, his eyes are too good-looking, and his temperament is also very charming, not much worse than those big stars.

Naturally, Pang Xuelin didn't know what Qi Xin was thinking, but he was a little surprised by Qi Xin's reaction, and said with a smile: "Senior sister, are you going out to exercise early?"

Today, Qi Xin is wearing a ponytail and a T-shirt, shorts and sportswear, revealing a pair of fair and firm thighs. Although she is not tall,

He is only in his early 1.6's, but the proportion of his thighs to his upper body is just right, and his figure is well-proportioned. On his feet are a pair of white sneakers, which looks youthful and beautiful.

Qi Xin came back to his senses, nodded and said, "Yes, I get up early every day for running! I haven't seen you go out so early before. Are you going to go out for exercise too?"

"It counts!"

Pang Xuelin nodded.

Pang Xuelin has no habit of exercising, and his body looks thin and weak, but after so many years as an astronaut, Pang Xuelin naturally understands how important a strong body is to a person.

"Then... how about we go together?"

Qi Xin had little expectations.

"Okay!"

Naturally, Pang Xuelin had no objection. He originally planned to go out for a stroll to gain popularity on the earth. Now that he is accompanied by a seductive beauty, he naturally doesn't mind.

"By the way, junior, didn't you go out during the National Day holiday? I went to Thailand with my classmates. I thought that the domestic tourist attractions are crowded with people, but it should be better abroad. It turns out that Thailand is the same. We came back after a few days of playing. , I just arrived at the school yesterday afternoon!"

Qi Xin said.

Pang Xuelin said: "I have something to do, I have been staying in school during this time."

Qi Xin said with a smile: "You are still doing research, right? Hasn't the BSD conjecture been proven? No, a great mathematician like you may start to retreat and do research again."

"It's not that exaggerated, I just don't like going out to play!"

Pang Xuelin smiled lightly, and thought, I have been to Mars for a few years, and I have had enough fun!

"What about your girlfriend? Don't you stay with your girlfriend during the holidays?"

Qi Xin's beautiful eyes looked at Pang Xuelindao without blinking.

"Girlfriend? I'm still single!"

I don't know why, but after hearing Pang Xuelin's words, Qi Xin felt a little joy in his heart.

You must know that Qi Xin's own conditions are excellent, and her vision is also high. Over the years, there are countless excellent men who have appeared by her side, but basically few of them make her feel excited.

Even including the previous Pang Xuelin.

Qi Xin is one year older than Pang Xuelin. Although Pang Xuelin is excellent, he is too student-like and feels immature. In addition, women always mature earlier than men. Therefore, Qi Xin only regarded Pang Xuelin as an ordinary friend at first. , and did not think about the relationship between men and women.

It's just that she never thought that Pang Xuelin, who hadn't seen him for a few days, seemed to be a different person. His eyes were clear and deep, with a faint sense of vicissitudes. Coupled with his young face, it formed a strange feeling. Qi Xin's little heart was instantly struck by her charming charm.

For the first time, Qi Xin wanted to take the initiative to pursue a boy.

"Sister, what about you? Are you going to Thailand with your boyfriend this time?"

Pang Xuelin said with a gentle smile.

Qi Xin's pretty face blushed, and she quickly said: "Nonsense! I haven't been in a relationship yet? This time I went with my girlfriends. Although there were many people this time, it was quite fun. We also went diving in Phuket Island. , let me tell you, diving is exciting..."

"Oh, next time you have a chance, you must go and have a look!"

...

The two talked and laughed all the way downstairs.

Pang Xuelin enjoyed this feeling very much. In the past, if a girl showed some kind of closeness to him, he would either act indifferent and pretend that he didn't know anything, or directly refuse to let the other party give up.

For him, interpersonal communication and relationships between men and women are taking up his research time.

But now, after experiencing the near-death on the Three-Body Plane and the hardships on the Martian Rescue Plane, the real life has instead become a haven for him to rest after taking risks.

Maybe it would be nice to have a girlfriend.

Pang Xuelin glanced over Qi Xin's pretty face, thinking to himself.
