Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 666 Strange Dream

Several years later, humans completed warp speed experiments, force field shield installation tests, gravity bombs, antimatter bomb experiments, and star destroyer cannons and neutron killing/neutron explosion tests. Almost all the technologies that can be applied at this stage have been used, but the things that people are worried about still happened. Through the feedback from the detectors distributed throughout the space, nothing unusual was found, let alone any exit.

The information fed back by each detector is the same. The space is still the same space, and no information about the universe is seen.

"We have built a warp drive and successfully tested 10.079 times the speed of light, but we still don't meet the standard?"

"Do we really have to develop the hypothesized tachyon weapon to meet the standard?"

For a moment, the human leaders became a little suspicious, and at the same time turned their attention to what they thought was the only possibility.

But so far, human scientists still have no idea about the types of tachyons that can be used in weapons, which is very puzzling.

Isn't it said that when we reach the fourth level of civilization, the exit will appear naturally? We have obviously already done it, but where is the exit? Why hasn't it appeared yet?
"Could it be that we really just lack a tachyon attack method?" The more Yue Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.

If true, this is both bad news and good news. The bad news is that humans will have to continue exploring the field of tachyon technology until they find the type of tachyons that can be used as weapons and then turn them into weapons. The good news is that humans' conjecture about the existence of tachyons that can be used as weapons is correct.

The space channel did not appear, but humans did not give up. Under the leadership of the new government, everyone continued to do what they were supposed to do. Research on the boundaries of space continued, astronomical particle collision experiments continued, warp speed experiments continued, and the construction of new ships did not stop.

There is also tachyon technology, which is a key research direction at this stage.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner, and the days are passing by in this peaceful and meaningful way.

Yue Yuan also had a normal schedule as usual. He woke up to work, and went to bed when he was tired. Everything was normal until one night.

"Oh! Old man! Didn't you say you were too busy to leave? Why are you back again? Why didn't you call me so that I could pick you up at the station!" An old lady with obvious crow's feet at the corners of her eyes greeted the visitor loudly. The passing years changed her appearance but not her voice.

Her shout attracted the neighbors next door, as well as the young man in the room who followed the old woman out to greet them.

"Dad, you're back. Thank you for your hard work!" the boy spoke first.

Then the neighbors who gathered quickly started talking.

"What good things are you going to bring back for my sister-in-law?"

"Don't you want to bring a doll?"

Several women and two children who followed in also chimed in: "Uncle, do you take a car or a plane when you leave the city?"

Others looked disdainful: "Oh, that's nothing strange, we have cars in our village too, my dad bought one in the city."

At this time, the man who had returned from outside opened his suitcase, took out a bag of food from it and handed it to the old woman who came over: "Aying, you've worked hard. Take it and help distribute it to the children first. We'll talk later."

Then he took out a bag of colorful candies from his suitcase and shouted to the boy behind the old woman, "A Yuan, why are you still standing there? Why don't you come up and help?"

"Oh, here I come, Dad." Yue Yuan responded, then he stepped over the woman in two steps, stepped forward and called his man to bring the gift back to the house. After putting the gift in a corner, Yue Yuan turned around and returned to where everyone was. Only then did he realize that the weather was good today.

It was already evening. The faint glow of the sky shone through the clouds, shining on the mottled fields, restraining the enthusiasm of the day, and a faint green appeared in the distance.

It was a rural scenery that could be seen everywhere on Earth in the early twentieth century, but Yue Yuan thought the scenery was very good. He kept looking at it and became fascinated. He always felt that the setting sun gradually setting in the horizon was very beautiful, so he wanted to look at it a few more times.

As I watched, I didn't realize that night had fallen. The bright moon rose into the sky, and the wooden window behind me, which was not closed tightly, made a rattling sound in the breeze.

This sound caught Yue Yuan's attention. He turned around and looked towards the window, but found that the group of neighbors who had gathered around him had disappeared.

Maybe it’s late at night and everyone has gone home, Yue Yuan thought.

Through the window, Yue Yuan could see that his father, who was tired from the journey, had taken a recliner and was lying on it with his eyes closed to rest, while his mother was clearing the dishes at the table, and seemed to have finished dinner.

"Why didn't you call me after dinner?"

Seeing this scene, Yue Yuan felt a little strange, but he thought it was quite reasonable, because he thought at this time that he had just had dinner with his parents, and he came out to see the moonlight after dinner. Yes, that must be the case.

Yue Yuan did not suspect anything and turned back into the house.

"A Yuan, it's a rare trip for you to your hometown this year. I shouldn't have said anything to you, but you came back alone again. Didn't you tell me last time that you had a girlfriend? Why didn't you bring her back to celebrate the New Year together? Although our home is a little shabby, it is still a home after all. What's wrong? Have you broken up again?" The moment Yue Yuan walked into the house, he suddenly spoke while lying on the recliner with his eyes closed.

What do you mean our house is a bit shabby? Hasn't our house been tiled? Even the exterior walls are tiled. We live a relatively good life in the village. All this is thanks to your hard work outside, Yue Yuan thought.

He didn't say it, but answered: "No, my girlfriend's name is Manyuemei. Didn't I tell you before that she is an officer and has to defend her country. She is not as free as us. She can't come back this year, maybe next year. I will definitely bring her here next year."

Having said this, Yue Yuan shook his head, then turned around again and walked out the door to look at his home. He wanted to confirm whether the exterior wall was really tiled.

This time he looked at it and it was indeed tiled, and it was the more expensive kind. At this time, he turned his eyes to the wooden window again. At this moment, the wooden window was still making a clicking sound in the breeze, and there were some spider webs hanging on the wooden window.

The old hand-pushed wooden windows seemed somewhat out of place with the exquisite wall tiles, but Yue Yuan did not find it strange; instead, he felt it was very normal.

"You ran away after just saying one thing? Why are you running away? I'm urging you to get married soon for your own good. Okay, okay, I won't say anything more about you. Why are you still standing there? Dinner is ready, come over and eat with us!" At this time, a man's voice was heard again in the house.

Yue Yuan turned his head and looked inside, only to find that his father and mother had been sitting at the dining table without him noticing, with a candle lit beside the table.

"I am here!" Yue Yuan replied, and at the same time thought to himself: I didn't have dinner, so I told you!
Yue Yuan was delighted and happily returned home to have dinner.

But somehow he finished it, and he didn't have much memory of how he finished it, just that he finished it.

"What I ate just now seemed to be stir-fried beef with shredded radish?" Yue Yuan felt that he was eating beef, but then he thought it would be normal if there was no beef on the table.
