Chapter 503. Chaotic Era
Wang Xudong is still a little curious, what kind of style will the opening song of this animation be, pop music? It's still more serious and atmospheric, it's animation style, or it's archaic.
He first heard the sound of a light violin.
Then there is the thick piano.
A string quartet, flowing between black and white keys.
The tune has no lyrics.
The picture is a variety of clips of animated screens, including the news of scientists committing suicide, Wang Miao's research, Yang Dong's glimpse, and the countdown to death.
The human computer is magnificent, and the gaze from the universe is dark and mysterious.
The information that can be obtained from the opening song is quite limited, and more reveals an atmosphere of oppressive tension.
Just listening to the music, Wang Xudong felt as if a stone was pressing on his chest, as if he, like the characters in the story, faced with a difficult situation and could not find a way out.
At the beginning of the second episode, it is the scene of Wang Miao in the game, his ID is [Sea Man], this desert is extremely cold even during the day, he met a player who called himself [King Wen of Zhou], he was wearing a primitive animal skin, holding a wooden cane, [King Wen of Zhou] also has a follower, the ID is called [King Wen of Zhou].
The attendant carried a box on his back, and when the box opened, there were five layers of squares inside, and in the grid was sand, which was slowly leaking down.
[King Wen of Zhou] said that this is a tool for keeping time, but Wang Miao was puzzled, why use such a complex tool, even if civilization has not developed to a certain extent, isn't it easier to use the sun to keep time?
But [King Wen of Zhou] was even more confused, he told Wang Miao that this was the era of chaos, and there was no way to know the time when looking at the sun, corresponding to the era of chaos, and the era of constant, which was a period when the movement of the sun was relatively regular.
Wang Miao was puzzled, but it was getting colder and colder.
After a few people exchanged a few more, Wang Miao felt very strange, in this world, the sun does not necessarily rise in the morning, the sun does not necessarily set at dusk, and even the sun does not necessarily rise from the east.
Two days passed in the game, but the sun never rose, and just when Wang Miao felt that the sun could not rise again, a dawn appeared in the sky.
But the sun was getting bigger and bigger, and [King Wen Zhou's follower] couldn't stand it, so he was directly dehydrated and became a roll of human skin, which was stuffed into his bag by Wang Miao.
The two of them came to Chaoge, the capital of the country, and they met the king of the country, the emperor of the country.
King Wen of Zhou claimed that his calendar could calculate the era of chaos and the epoch of Heng, and the king instructed him to calculate when the next epoch would come.
[King Wen of Zhou] got the answer, which was very similar to what he had experienced before, and the king ordered the whole country to be soaked.
Soaking is the opposite of dehydration, dehydrated humans, after soaking, can return to their original appearance, although some people lack arms and legs, but still survive.
Wang Xudong watched the animation, glancing at his parents from time to time to see their reactions.
He found that the two old men were very serious and did not get impatient at all because this was the plot of the game.
Epochs of chaos and constant eras, elusive suns, dehydration and immersion, the world of this game is very different from the familiar world, and has an exotic feel.
When Wang Xudong watched the people of the entire country change from a dehydrated state to a normal state after soaking under the order of the king, when he saw that the originally lifeless country was bustling in a blink of an eye, this inner throbbing was irrepressible.
However, when the sun went down, it never rose again.
Until three flying stars appeared in the sky, which, according to the Emperor, were the coldest years, and even the stones would be frozen into powder.
King Zhou could only make the whole country dehydrated again, and at the same time threw King Wen of Zhou into the bronze tripod and simmered slowly.
"It's all gone, there's nothing to play with here."
It turns out that the King of the Rings is also a player.
Wang Miao saw that the game time accelerated, and heavy snow fell in the sky, which was dry ice formed by the condensation of carbon dioxide, and after a while, the snowflakes turned into pale blue fragments, which were oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere.
The last piece of text appears on the screen.
[This night lasted for forty-eight years, and Civilization No. 137 was destroyed in the bitter cold, and the civilization evolved to the Sengoku level. 】
Wang Miao, who took off his helmet, was in a cold sweat, he looked at the outside world in a daze, and muttered the words "Chaos Era" and "Heng Era" in his mouth.
He drove away from home and went to Yang Dong's house.
There, he met Yang Dong's mother, Ye Wenjie.
Ye Wenjie was like a kind grandmother, talking to the children, and when she saw Wang Miao coming, she sent the children away and waved her hand, as if welcoming Wang Miao home.
The two talked about some topics about Yang Dong, and Ye Wenjie said that she felt very guilty, she let Yang Dong get in touch with physics too early, making her world too pure, maybe this is what caused her to commit suicide.
Wang Miao comforted a few words, asked some institutions that looked at the background radiation of the universe, and finally left.
With Wang Miao's departure, the ending song sounded, and the episode ended.
The ending song is not pure music, but vocals, even electronic.
The female voice is melodious and whispering, like a poem from a long past.
Classical and modern, in this song, blend together, very harmonious.
Wang Xudong looked at his parents, most of them would feel noisy when they heard music with this feeling in the past, and left with a frown, but this time, they didn't show that expression, but listened very carefully.
As soon as the second episode ended, Wang Xudong immediately took out his mobile phone and looked at it.
The countdown of the first sound video network is gone, on Weibo, someone went to the bank of the Ningjiang River, and the countdown of the row of high-rise buildings is finally gone, and everything is back to normal with the broadcast of the second episode.
He breathed a long sigh of relief, and suddenly felt a little amused.
It's obviously just a propaganda project, why is he as nervous as Wang Miao in the animation.
Most of the content of the second episode takes place in the three-body game, the era of chaos, the era of constant, the strange dehydration and soaking of humans, hovering in Wang Xudong's heart.
Three flying stars are obviously the origin of the name of the three-body game, but what is this?
He tried to understand, but found that he couldn't, just like Wang Miao in the animation, confused by this puzzle.
Wang Xudong used to watch that kind of reasoning and suspense drama, and he could more or less guess the truth.
But watching "Once Upon a Time on Earth", he felt that he could only give up thinking.
The parents discussed the plot and insisted on their own words, which was rare to be so lively.
Wang Xudong didn't disturb the two old men, he packed up his things and returned to the room.
When the curtains were drawn, Wang Xudong saw the moon in the sky.
At least, he lives in a world where the sun will rise tomorrow as usual.
Wang Xudong thought.
