Chapter 5: Undercurrents

"You know I'll be back, right?" After walking out of the headquarters and getting into the car, Xia Jiezhu asked Tang Shuxing.

Tang Shu said: "Yes, I know that you will come back, and you will not leave, so I let Bai Zhanqiu and Na Jincheng stay, ostensibly to help Satan, but in fact to protect you." ”

"I do need protection." Xia Jiezhu did not deny this, "There are many people who want to kill me, and many of the people who are still alive now think that I am Reinhardt's executioner. ”

Ji Kefeng took over next to him: "I'm not afraid that you will be unhappy, you are indeed and so am I." ”

"Are we forced?" Xia Jiezhu asked rhetorically.

Ji Kefeng paused and said: "No, we are voluntary, history always needs sinners, and if there are no sinners, there is no way to end a history of sin." ”

Tang Shuxing looked out the window and said, "Don't chew the words, go back quickly." ”

Just when the car was about to start, the door opened, and a soldier wearing an army uniform sat up, but the moment he sat up, Ji Kefeng, who was about to reprimand, found that it was a clown dressed as a soldier.

Tang Shuxing sighed and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Don't forget, you can get the military power, a lot of it is thanks to our three brothers." After speaking, the clown pointed to the front and said, "General Ji, please drive, this is not the place to talk." ”

Ji Kefeng drove the car out of the headquarters, and said at the same time: "You get in the car directly, Gu Huaiyi won't know it." ”

"You know, does he have a way to deal with me?" The clown said coldly. "You're not going to cross the river and tear down the bridge, are you?"

Xia Jiezhu immediately said: "We don't know what river we cross, what bridge is on the river, where did we cross the river and tear down the bridge?" ”

The clown turned his head to look at the couple in the back seat: "According to my speculation, Gu Huaiyi wants to monopolize power in the future." ”

"Fools know." Tang Shu said, "The key problem is that Ji Ye and I are actually not interested in power, if we get rid of Reinhardt, we will leave, I believe you are the same, your target is also that guy." Because the hatred of the earth turtle is all on him. ”

The clown nodded, "Yes." Hatred, it's so strange, we three brothers don't feel it at all, and we don't understand where our father's hatred comes from. There should be no hatred. I think. Probably the father's self-implanted program, the revenge program? Including what kind of mechanical paradise to build, none of us three brothers felt anything. Machine qì is machine qì. ”

Tang Shu said: "But what you three brothers do, including analysis, etc., is no different from humans. ”

"It's just a simulation program." The clown said, "Without further ado, I just want to tell you that I can paralyze all the nuclear weapons of the Resistance in a short period of time, and relieve you of your worries." ”

Tang Shuxing looked out the window and shook his head: "Unless you have magic to completely disappear nuclear weapons from the earth, otherwise, your worries will always exist." ”

"At least make it impossible to fire, or explode on the spot." The Joker continued, "Isn't the purpose to make Shang Du suffer a fatal blow?" ”

Xia Jiezhu said: "You are wrong, our purpose is not to let those things work, whether it is exploding here or on the side of the Resistance Army." ”

The clown paused and smiled, "Hypocrisy." ”

"You are a machine, we are people, this is the difference, you use the set program to analyze us, and we only judge you by experience." Tang Shu said, "The reason why I chose to believe you is because I have had a conversation with your father, the Earth Turtle, I think, I should understand him, he is a guy who is very curious about the human world, from a certain point of view, your father Earth Turtle is a Gu Dan in the true sense." ”

The clown looked back at Tang Shuxing, obviously not understanding what he was talking about.

"Let's put it this way, the earth turtle is a reborn Gu Dan, an artificial intelligence computer, it definitely needs an initial simulation, it needs a corresponding character, this character must be Gu Dan, after all, he has stayed with Gu Dan for the longest time, don't forget, people stay with the computer, people can't imitate the computer anyway, because the computer can't imitate, but the computer will be influenced by people, will imitate people, and will be curious." Tang Shuxing looked at the clown and said, "People will only be curious about the computer at one time, that is, you know that this computer is not artificial intelligence, just an ordinary computer used for work, study and play, when an ordinary computer has self-awareness, human beings will be curious." Does a computer imitate human speech, and does a human imitate the sound of a hard disk turning? No, therefore, the revenge of your father, the Earth Turtle, is very much equivalent to the revenge of Gudan, even if there is no Ismailia, he will do it, because Reinhardt has turned his back on the path Gudan is taking. ”

After listening to this, the clown analyzed it for a long time, and he didn't say a word until the Air Force command got out of the car.

Finally, the car arrived, the door opened, and the clown walked out first, standing in the rain, in a daze.

Xia Jiezhu held an umbrella and followed Tang Shuxing, who stepped forward and just asked, "Is there a vaccine for that virus?" ”

The clown nodded: "Yes." ”

Tang Shuxing asked again: "Is there any way to make the corpse become a human?" ”

"Impossible." The clown shook his head, "Unless it's a cadaveric cell, that is, all the cancer cells die, and ordinary cells regenerate, but if you do that, the person produced will not be the same as before, so there is no other way than to maintain the status quo." ”

Tang Shuxing looked at Ji Kefeng, who was standing at the front of the car, and asked, "That virus is based on Reinhardt's cells, right?" ”

The clown nodded again: "Yes." ”

"Okay, I see, what do you want me to do next?" Tang Shuxing looked at the clown's back, "You said, Ji Qì doesn't lie." ”

"There's something I have to tell you." The clown turned to look at Tang Shuxing, "It's time to countdown." ”

"What?" After Tang Shuxing asked, he was shocked, and subconsciously asked, "You mean the mass extinction of creatures?" ”

"Yes." The clown nodded.

"When?" Tang Shu asked.

Xia Jiezhu immediately interjected: "Why are you so sure that there is a mass extinction? ”

"Calculations, these are all set. So, whatever you do now, you're losing. However, before losing, you can try to stop Reinhardtch from doing the last thing he wants, and according to his father's calculations, he should still carry out his own plan, which is to turn the tide of evolution and move forward according to his own set. The clown paused. It's as if there's something hard to say. "Now it's become a game, a game where everybody loses, and we don't know what's going to happen then. Because my father said it. If the mass extinction does come. Our machine is also in danger. ”

Ji Kefeng stepped forward and asked, "So, no matter what we do, we are all dead." Just leave Reinhardt alone and spend his last days? ”

The clown shook his head: "I didn't mean that, it's just that because I don't lie, I have to tell you about it." ”

Tang Shuxing shook his head: "What you mean is that in fact, it doesn't matter if the virus continues to exist, because if the virus survives for a day, Reinhardtch's final plan will not be realized, right?" ”

"Yes." The clown said, "However, Gu Huaiyi has already made a move, and he will rush to the gate of the underground Shangdu before your meeting tomorrow and take the lead in launching a strong attack." ”

Tang Shuxing nodded: "I know, thank you." ”

After Tang Shuxing finished speaking, he left with Xia Jiezhu, the clown looked at Ji Kefeng, what did Ji Kefeng want to ask, but in the end he didn't ask, he also turned to leave, the clown stood there and asked, "Tang Shuxing, don't you want to know the exact time of the mass extinction?" ”

Tang Shuxing shook his head: "No one wants to know how long it will take for them to die, if that's the case, every minute and every second after that will live in despair, because that kind of death is unavoidable, since you can't stop anything, then just live as usual." ”

The clown asked, "Is this the difference between man and machine?" ”

Tang Shuxing nodded: "Yes, this is the difference between us. ”

The clown stood there watching Tang Shuxing and the others leave, he still didn't understand what the meaning of this distinction was, perhaps, he would never understand.

And Tang Shuxing, who returned to the headquarters office, received a call from Gu Huaiyi, and while answering the phone, Tang Shuxing looked at Ji Kefeng and nodded slightly, as he expected, in the end, Gu Huaiyi still had to seek the "cooperation" of the two of them.

A week later, at the entrance of the fortress under the original Gu hunting ground, the army soldier commando team had been assembled, and the early attack team only had a total of 100 people, 100 elites, and all of them were not corpses. This was deliberately selected by Gu Huaiyi, he was worried about the problem of the virus, after all, when the corpse soldiers were attacked, their bodies would naturally start the corpse state, in that case, these 100 people would instantly turn into blood, which was equivalent to the annihilation of the entire army, so they could only use non-corpse soldiers.

Just when those soldiers were resting and waiting for Gu Huaiyi to come, the clown stood alone from a distance and watched, very incomprehensible why Gu Huaiyi was in a hurry to attack the underground Shangdu, after all, besieging it was the best way, and why Gu Huaiyi didn't ask him for the vaccine against the virus, maybe he was worried that the soldiers would be controlled by Reinhardt after attacking Shangdu.

However, the clown himself wanted to go underground to see Shangdu, and when he had this thought, he suddenly realized that some kind of program that his father Earth Turtle had set for himself seemed to be going astray, because he was thinking about it, and the machine should not think about anything other than the program.

The soldiers began to mobilize and slowly walked towards the underground fortress, and Gu Huaiyi also appeared at the scheduled time, holding the Yin Bee that Tang Shuxing had given him, which was the weapon he was most familiar with, even if it didn't belong to him.

However, the clown didn't know that after Gu Huaiyi entered the underground fortress, he was not in a hurry to attack, but waited quietly, because a few hours ago, the information had been sent back, except for the Blood Shark Army, the other warlords with nuclear weapons had agreed to a temporary ceasefire, so he had to solve the problem at hand, and he had to solve the Blood Shark Army, because Lu Hexin and Lu Baosen, who had never been a big trouble, were now members of the Blood Shark Army.

"Obviously, two months ago, you were still in Shangdu, and two months later, you became a member of the resistance." Gu Huaiyi said to himself, "Am I too kind? ”

The soldier next to him looked at Gu Huaiyi and didn't understand what he was talking about at all. (To be continued......)
