Chapter 510 Scientific Research Base
"I knew it for a long time." Gu Lie nodded. Now that everyone is gone, there is really no need to play mute Zen.
Jing Lan raised her eyebrows and said very dissatisfiedly, "You have heard from me for a long time. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Gu Lie laughed and said, "What do you want to do? Let you go to the Professional Association, or is it a righteous challenge to Shanliang?
Jing Lan was angry for a moment, and then sighed gently and said, "Am I so impulsive in your eyes?"
Gu Lie didn't say anything, but nodded.
Jing Lan was angry and said angrily, "It seems that I didn't make a good impression on you before!"
Gu Lie said, "I can only say that your strength is too strong, leaving a psychological shadow on everyone. I'm always afraid that you will find trouble for no reason."
Jing Lan sighed, "Have I changed a lot?"
"A lot!" Gu Lie affirmed this.
"Why is that old man still so afraid of me?"
Gu Lie laughed and said, "I understand you, which does not mean that President Jilong also understands you. I see your transformation. President Jilong, that's another matter!"
"I'm an old man who grew up, and I'm not as good as you know me!" Jing Lan glanced at Gu Lie and looked a little sad.
"That's because you left a deep impression on people in the past, and it is also deeply rooted in President Jilong's heart. It should be difficult to change in a short time." Gu Lie comforted him.
"I know what the old man went out to do. He said so well that he went to Reno Hughes to investigate. The strong force in the Professional Association, Reno Hughes and Machin are almost tied in the ranking. They have very different personalities and are almost incompatible. They talk coldly when they meet. How can Reno Hughes intervene in the investigation of Machin? Jing Lan shook his head helplessly, "In the final analysis, the old man is still afraid that I will find trouble for Shan Liang!"
Gu Lie asked curiously, "Why does President Jilong protect Shan Liang like this?"
Jing Lan said, "Isn't it because he knows how to operate the association? Otherwise, with his strength, he will be a senior vice president at most.
"If nothing happens, I'll go first!"
Jing Lan stopped him and said, "Sitting down, it's not over yet. Where are you going?"
"I didn't run. It's just that you don't seem to have anything to say!" Gu Lie sat down according to his words.
"You seem to have neglected your practice recently. The progress is not too fast!"
Gu Lie said, "Indeed, maybe my cultivation method is different from others. I have been staying in the city, and I can't find the feeling of upgrading."
"Feeling?" Jing Lan was speechless about this, "Do you know how I practiced before? Spend a lot of time on retreat every day. That kind of hard life is not something you can imagine at all.
Gu Lie said, "The speed of retreat is too slow. For me, it is not as effective as a battle."
"I guess you are born to be a combat maniac!" Jing Lan shook his head and said, "A weirdo like you, only Tanggula can be your teacher. Except for him, you can't find a second one in the whole city."
"I also want to get into level nine quickly, but this thing can't be too hasty. It's not good for me if it's too fast."
Jing Lan said, "If you can have this kind of understanding, I don't have to worry about it anymore. You can control the progress of cultivation by yourself. If there is anything you don't understand, come and ask me, but I may not be able to answer it. If you have something to do, just go. The old man won't come back if you don't leave. She knows Geelong too well.
Gu Lie smiled and said, "It turns out that there is such a saying, so I'll go first. Just let someone call me if you have something to do."
Leaving Jing Lan's residence, Gu Lie strolled on the sway. Jing Lan did remind him that it was really not good for him to go on like this.
As soon as he returned to his residence, someone came to report, and Song Peng came to find him.
Gu Lie remembered Jing Lan's words. The Song family is now in a precarious position. He wants to attract Jing Lan through himself, so he can naturally make a little use of him.
When he came to the gate, Song Peng came up and said enthusiastically, "Let's go, I'll take you to see something good."
Gu Lie asked, "What is so mysterious?" Follow Song Peng into the car.
The car was driven by Song Peng and did not bring a driver, which shows that today's meeting is more personal.
Song Peng's face was mysterious, while Gu Lie's face was puzzled. After a long time in the inner city, Gu Lie completely lost his sense of direction and finally stopped in front of a seven-storey building.
The whole building looks very technological from the appearance. It feels like an upright shuttle. The upper and lower ends are narrow, and the middle is very wide. The appearance is covered with a layer of light blue glass, shining with crystal light under the eyes.
"What is this place?"
Song Peng still said with a mysterious face, "Follow me, you will know when you go in!" Then he added, "This is not a place where ordinary people can come. Don't miss it!"
The courtyard wall outside the building is not high, only about one and a half meters. It is purely decorative and isolated. As long as you are an adult, you can turn it over with a little force.
The door is even more decorative. It is basically a few steel bars welded together. As strong as Gu Lie, they can be removed with bare hands.
When Song Peng came to the door, his expression suddenly became serious. He took out a blue card and brushed the raised instrument on the left side of the gate twice in a row. The green light turned on, and the door opened automatically with a "click".
"Let's go!" Song Peng tilted his head and motioned Gu Lie to keep up.
A three-meter-wide stone road leads directly to the courtyard. In addition, the whole yard is covered with a kind of purple dwarf grass. A little closer, you can smell a faint fragrance of plants.
When the two came to the gate of the building, Song Peng swiped his card again. A gate about two meters wide pulled away horizontally, leaving a gap of one person wide for the two to enter, and then automatically closed it.
The lobby on the first floor is very empty, and the eight pillars that need to be surrounded by two people are the most eye-catching, and at the same time play a role in supporting the whole building.
There is only one table directly opposite, and there is not even a person in charge of reception.
Gu Lie followed Song Peng forward and saw a large touch screen on the table. The black screen prompted that he needed to enter the password.
Gu Lie consciously turned his head to the side. Song Peng smiled and said, "You don't have to. Entering the password is only the first step. There is more trouble later. Even if you remember the password, it's useless!" After saying that, he began to output a fairly long string of pure digital passwords.
With a "drop", the password is entered, and immediately there is a voice prompt to swipe the card. This time, Song Peng took out another purple card and posted it on the "card slot" displayed on the screen. After successfully reading the data, a cylindrical instrument rose on the table and began to scan Song Peng's pupils. Then he checked the ten-finger fingerprints and palm prints of his hands one by one, and finally facial recognition.
After this program, an image appeared on the screen.
That is the perspective of the whole building. Song Peng wiped it on the screen and turned into a three-dimensional image.
"This building is one of the most important buildings in the city of the day!" Song Peng said proudly, "almost all science and technology are developed from here. The underground is an ancient relic, which is specially used for research. The building above is specially designed to display the research results."
Gu Lie suddenly realized that no wonder Song Peng looked mysterious from beginning to end. It turned out that this building was a "scientific research base" for human beings, which was really extremely important.
"You see that there are not many people around. In fact, there are all the masters living here. It is difficult for ordinary people to get close to here. Only rich families, big families, Lords and some senior functional departments of the Federation are qualified to enter here."
"Do you dare to bring me to such a place?"
Song Peng smiled and said, "I treat the Gu Lie brothers sincerely, otherwise how could I take a big risk to bring you in?" I think the Gu Lie brothers will definitely live up to my heart!"
Gu Lie had a bad cold. No matter how he heard this, he felt that two friends were confessing.
He smiled and said, "That's natural. I was just joking."
Song Peng said, "Let's go upstairs and I'll show you the research results of human beings over the years."
From the second floor, it is almost a super-large exhibition hall, and only some simple partitions play a role in isolation. Gu Lie is familiar with many things shown here. In his opinion, the Newin Continent used to be almost a replica of the earth. The language is common, and even the driving method of the car is almost common. It can be seen that there are many things in common in science and technology.
It's like this set of armor in front of you, which can provide a strong fighting ability for the weak human body. The only disadvantage is that it is too cumbersome, which makes it difficult for people to move. Naturally, it is also an obsolete item.
Then the development process of science and technology is like this. There are many novel inventions every moment. After demonstration and practice, it will be inappropriately eliminated, leaving what is needed or has development potential in the future.
Gu Lie seemed to have returned to a museum of scientific and technological development. The same familiar thing flashed in front of him. He even saw the prototype of the train. There was a line of markings below. The reason for the elimination was that the mainland's mineral resources were insufficient and it was impossible to lay a large number of tracks, which made this cheap means of transportation impossible to be mass-produced.
Cars are almost the best means of transportation in the human federation, while locomotives and trucks are the mainstream in the southern and western continents. They can't drive cars because humans have not yet developed better mobility tools. In the view of human beings, the locomotive is already a transportation tool eliminated by the previous generation, and it is still a mainstream product outside, just like the iron cow tractor that has been eliminated in China, which is still a very popular product in Africa.
Song Peng saw that Gu Lie didn't say anything from beginning to end. He thought he was deeply shocked and couldn't help laughing and said, "How's it going?"
Gu Lie nodded hard and said, "Okay, okay, okay!" He said three good words in a row, and in addition, he really couldn't think of a better word.
Hearing what he said, Song Peng said proudly, "One-third of these exhibits on the second floor were invented by our Song family!"
Only then did Gu Lie know that it was no wonder that the Song family could be among the five rich families. It turned out that he had made such great achievements in scientific research.
"Let's go, I'll show you a better one!" Song Peng took him to the third floor.
