Volume 2 Smiles Through Time and Space Chapter 9 When you receive this letter, I am already dead

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    That night, the time capsule bought on Taobao arrived.

    The brown paper box is stuffed with white pearl cotton that cushions vibrations. When disassembled, it looks a bit like a thermos bottle at first glance. It is a cylinder with a shiny stainless steel shell, but it is actually much stronger than the bottle liner.  It is 20 centimeters long and about 8 or 9 centimeters in diameter. It stands about as high as a mineral water bottle. There are covers on both sides, and each cover is tightened with eight bolts.

    Along with the time capsule, there are also two wrenches and a shovel, which can be said to be fully equipped, from the coffin to the nails to the one-stop arrangement for you.

    Use a wrench to unscrew all the bolts on one side and take off the cover. You can see the rubber sealing ring pressed against the bottom of the cover and the empty interior. The volume of the time capsule is only 0.6 liters.  Accommodates mid-forearm.

    This is the smallest time capsule. The larger one costs more than 80 yuan, and the largest one costs more than 200 yuan. Bai Yang is too poor to afford it.

    Can this thing really be buried in the ground for twenty years?

    Bai Yang tapped the shell of the time capsule lightly, the smooth stainless steel reflected the light, and then pinched it hard, but it couldn't be pinched, and it was quite strong.

    ? Not cans.

    He suspects that this thing is made of a piece of thick seamless steel pipe. Cut a ten-centimeter-diameter stainless steel pipe into many sections. Each section can be made into a time capsule. You only need to buckle a cover on both sides and screw it on with bolts.  , the structure is quite simple, and there is no black technology.

    Good guy, such a thing sells for sixty-eight, which is really good money.

    Bai Yang thought that if he couldn't find a job in the future, he would sell time capsules on Taobao.

    Starting from today, counting 21 years from now, it will be the era of BG4MSR - if she really lived in that era, according to the girl, the earth will encounter a catastrophe at the level of extinction in the past 20 years, and all human beings will  Extinct in this disaster, it is hard for Bai Yang to imagine what kind of disaster can completely wipe out the entire human civilization. Is it the great flood in the Bible?  The same is not true for asteroids hitting the earth.

    He weighed the slightly heavy stainless steel capsule in his hand, not sure if this capsule could withstand the past. The manufacturer of the time capsule probably only designed it as a souvenir for fun, and never thought of it as a responsibility to protect the relics of human civilization.  Great Ren, to resist the super disaster of the level of destroying the world.

    However, this is already the best equipment Bai Yang can get.

    What should I put in this capsule?

    Because the volume is quite limited, there are not many items that can be put in it - except for the tritium tube used as a time indicator, Bai Yang hopes to put some useful things in it.

    He sat on a chair and looked around.

    food?

    With such a small capsule, you can¡¯t even hold a few compressed biscuits, and you can put at most two buckets of cup noodles, and a bucket of Master Kang¡¯s Laotan Pickled Vegetable Beef Noodles can¡¯t fit.

    for drink?

    It's even more impossible, the liquid is not easy to preserve, if it leaks, even the capsule will be ruined, and the other party is not short of water, Bai Yang shook his head.

    What about drugs?  The doomsday world should be short of medicine.

    "Mom¡ª! Where are the medicines at home?" Bai Yang got up and put on his slippers, stepped on the wooden floor and opened the door, shouting to the living room.

    "Under your bed." Mom was sitting on the sofa watching TV, "Why are you looking for medicine?"

    "It's dawn."

    Bai Yang pulled out a plastic basket from under the bed. Inside the basket were regular medicines at home, including cooling oil, essential oil, dexamethasone ointment, fluoxacin, cefixime, ibuprofen and amoxicillin.  Put the medicine in a plastic bag and stuff it into the time capsule, it just fits.

    OK, just give her some medicine.

    Let her suffer a little.

    Bai Yang is very satisfied. The finished medicines produced by the modern pharmaceutical industry are quite stable. Although the instructions say that they are valid for 12 months or 36 months, as long as they are kept away from light, do not soak in water, and are not affected by high temperatures, they can be preserved.  It should still be usable after taking it out for many years or twenty years.

    In addition to time indicators, drugs, what else?

    Bai Yang looked at the remaining volume in the time capsule, then took out a hard fruit candy of unknown year from the drawer under the desk, and threw it in.

    Give me another candy.

    You can't just suffer, you have to give a little sweetness.

    Finally, a sense of ritual is needed, and a letter should be written.

    So Bai Yang took out a piece of white letter paper, unscrewed the pen cap, hesitated for a few seconds, and then wrote on the paper:

    "Dear Miss BG4MSR:

    & nbsp; When you read this letter, I will be dead.  "

    These words seem to be the last words of the hero who saves the world alone in the movie to his family and friends before the final battle. It is a little heroic and unexpectedly touching.

    Of course, according to the girl, she would indeed be dead twenty years later, and there would be only the last person left in the world.

    "This is a letter from the dead. It has passed through twenty years of time and has reached your hands. When I write this letter, you may not have been born yet, but when you receive this letter,  I am no longer alive.

    What does a person's world look like?  A deserted Confucius Temple, Xinjiekou, Southern Airlines High School and Crescent Lake Park, a deserted Nanjing, there must be no college entrance examination, no math test papers, and no "Small Questions".

    Also, I would love to know how I died, and if you get this letter, I would like you to tell me the cause of my death, and the cause of others, if you know.  "

    Writing letters to people from the future is outrageous no matter how you look at it, but Bai Yang recalled that the great scientist Stephen Hawking once held a similar performance art. In 2009, he held a party for people from the future. Hawking secretly chose a room as the meeting place.  , but the party notice was issued on the second day after the party ended¡ªif people in the future had the ability to travel through time, they would be able to arrive at the party venue the day before the notice was issued.

    As a result, there is no doubt that Hawking waited in that room all night. It is not known whether the people in the future have no ability to travel through time and space, or the people in the future did not see Hawking's announcement. Then, can Bai Yang's letter be received by people in the future?

    "¡ªOf course, if the cause of my death is too tragic, I hope you will think about it and don't tell me too bluntly, so as not to cause too much mental pressure on me. Twenty years later, I will not be forty years old. When I think about the future of the world  I deeply regret the loss of such a young and promising man.

    I wish you good health, never forget to bring an umbrella when you go out in the rain, never get ginger when you eat braised chicken, 73.  "

    Bai Yang paused, and finally signed:

    "The BG4MXH who is communicating with you at this moment was twenty years ago."

    When the tritium tube arrived, he sealed the letter together with the tritium tube into the time capsule.

    Then bury it in the ground and let it sit for twenty years.
