An hour later, the sun of Westworld slowly sinks, casting a gentle golden hue on the rooftops of the town and the Gobi Desert.

Howson sat on a bare rock with a cigar and looked at the evening view of the town below and said, "Is this really good?" ”

Tang Fang's nose moved slightly, and instead of avoiding the choking smoke as before, he looked at the burning clouds in the sky with a calm face: "You mean that JI --- girl?" Lena? Betty? ”

"Didn't she already tell you her real name? Clodia? Bessie. Hausen said: "You're really a kind guy. ”

Tang Fang glanced at him and said, "When this sentence comes out of your mouth, there is always something unpleasant. I ...... with her Not all the way. ”

Hausen said: "How so? ”

Churchill kicked off a stone with his foot and watched it fall down a steep slope and tumble away: "Shall we just keep waiting?" He obviously didn't want Hausen to dwell on the inconsequential issues above, bringing the topic back to the purpose of the book.

Tang Fang leaned back, fell on the somewhat cool stones, looked at the sky and said, "You can choose to look at the stars." ”

In the distance, the sound of train horns could be heard, and jumping lights rushed across the slowly dimming fields.

Churchill looked up at a few indifferent stars in the sky and said, "It's all fake, what's there to see." ”

Tang Fang said: "If the heart is flying, where is the scenery? ”

Hausen secretly raised his middle finger at his figure, then flicked the cigar butt forward, watching the embers flutter down as if they had fallen into the mortal world.

About 5 hours later, Tang Fang took off the felt hat covering the dough, stood up, and touched the two people next to him with his foot: "Let's go, the main man is here." ”

The two of them woke up from a nap, patted the dust on their bodies, and followed him down the mountain.

Ten minutes later, three backs were heading towards the town, and another trance was heading west along the edge of a nearby river valley.

Heading to the town is the clone of the replicators, and heading west along the valley is the Banshee Fighter.

At this time, the sky was dark, the stars and moonlight were obscured by dark clouds, and the whole land fell into a deep sleep.

As the valley deepened, the Banshee Fighter descended slowly, hovering over an open field.

After waiting for a while, a black-painted stealth shuttle flew from the direction of the town, slowly landing on the relatively flat place at the bottom of the rift, and the originally tightly knit plate appeared sleek cracks, rotating and settling downward.

In a few years, the plate rises from below and returns to its state.

After waiting for a while, Tang Fang took the two of them down from the Banshee Fighter, stood on the parking spot of the stealth shuttle, and told Emma to activate the analog beam of the sensing device.

The scene that had just been staged was repeated, and the plate rotated downwards for about a few tens of meters before stopping, revealing a straight passage connecting the shuttle hangar ahead to the corridor leading to the interior of the facility.

After making sure that there was no danger around, the three of them continued to walk, and when they reached the fork in the road, they found that one end was a workshop, and the other end was a track for the maglev device to travel.

"It seems that this is just a node station of many small worlds, you wait here, I'll go to the workshop to have a look."

With that, he activated the stealth function of the harsh environment protective suit, opened the door of the workshop, and entered the interior of the facility.

As a node station, there were not many staff inside, and after passing through the empty monitoring room, and walking along the corridor to the end, he found a huge warehouse in front of him, and the people who had entered it were sending the characters who died in the shootout during the day into empty petri dishes.

Opposite the row of empty petri dishes are human petri dishes placed in layers, and through the glass outer wall you can see the faces of people you have seen in the town before. This should be a spare "game item" for The Macallan Group and the Sandley Group.

Although I had seen similar scenes in the Armed with God research facility before, I still felt uncomfortable seeing it again.

He didn't stay long, returned to the unoccupied monitoring room, connected the data leads of the harsh environment protective suit to the computer, told Emma to copy the map information, and then left the workshop and returned to the location of Hausen and Churchill.

He didn't travel along the maglev track, because according to the information recorded by the computer in the workshop, the maglev track is used to transport the characters of the story, and it will not be opened on non-supply days, it is closed, and he can't choose this road to get to the location of the signal source.

How to get in here and how to leave, and then take the banshee fighter plane and fly towards a corner of the western world. Upon reaching its destination, it continued to rise, and when it had not crossed the clouds for some distance, the phantom canopy appeared slightly distorted, and then approached a dome of silvery-white checkered tiles as far as the eye could see.

Emma fires the simulated beam again, and one of the checkered plates sinks downward. The Banshee Fighter slowly drove over, landed on the inside of the plate, and ascended to the middle layer of the small world and the small world. The structure inside is similar to the node station just now, and after putting away the banshee fighter, the three of them leave directly through the entrance connecting the small world above.

Entering the new small world, you will see an open land, different from the desolation of the western style world, with green trees and red flowers dotting the four fields.

At the end of the line of sight, there is a pool of blue and white, thinking of a long river or a lake.

To Hausen's surprise, he did not order the Banshee pilot to fly to the silver-white checkered dome in the sky, but pointed to the water-colored water in front of him and told the pilot to fly smoothly.

Churchill's eyes were sharp, and he noticed that Captain Tang's face changed briefly when the three of them entered this small world, and looking at the water in front of him, he had complex feelings mixed with funny, stunned, nostalgic, helpless and other emotions.

As the water widened, a series of dark peaks emerged in front of it, standing in the middle of an extremely vast water pool.

Tang Fang told the pilot to lower the flight altitude, and the distance from the middle peak was getting closer and closer, and he could already see the school field, barracks, lobby, mountain road and other facilities built above. There is a city tower near the top of the mountain, and there is a big flag next to the beacon tower, with four big characters on it: "For the Heavenly Road".

It's not English, it's italic characters.

Hausen and Churchill, of course, did not know what the words were or what they meant. However, for Tang Fang, for this piece of water, for these four italic characters, there is a different feeling.

Yes, the story of this small world is based on "Water Margin", one of the four famous works of Chinese civilization, in other words...... It is a small world dedicated to serving the descendants of the yellow race living in East Asia during the Earth Age.

When he came here before, he didn't pay attention to the relevant information at all, and just followed the route indicated by Emma, until he came out of the tunnel and saw the water in front of him, and when he heard Emma say that he might be interested in this small world, because it was called Liangshanbo World, of course it was impossible for him to remain calm.

He didn't know which plot of "Water Margin" the story line here corresponded to, but when the banshee fighter plane approached the mountain, he saw a ** middle-aged man hanging under the banner in front of the school field, with a long ...... A little short, a little dark.

To be honest, he didn't know the man...... Until I saw the long piece pinned to the man's belt, with twelve big characters written on it, which was a bit ugly, but it did not hinder the observation of the ------ "Gua Wazi, I am R-I-you immortal banbanban", a strong Sichuan dialect flavor, which is what Captain Tang can understand, and he may not be able to understand it if he is a person, even if it is a serious Han descendant.

Seeing this, you don't have to think much to know what kind of identity the person hanging under the flagpole has, naturally it is Song Jiang Song Gongming, who is nicknamed Xiaoyi Hei Saburo.

"Journey to the West", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and "Water Margin" can be said to be the three most popular books in the history of Chinese civilization. The first one is limited to the subject matter and naturally cannot be constructed, and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" needs to use a lot of resources, which is not very cost-effective. Only "Water Margin", which has a relatively small pattern, is suitable for reproducing local scenes to meet the needs of some wealthy Han people.

It makes Tang Fang regret that The Macallan Group and the Sandley Group have omitted a generation of strange books "Golden Vase Plum", isn't it easy to build a small Qinghe County? There aren't many characters, and it's much more enjoyable to go there than to visit the red-light district on the outer ring.

The Banshee Fighter had landed on the mountainside, and the observer was released by him one step ahead.

The plaque on the largest building in the cottage has been changed from Zhongyi Hall back to Juyi Hall, and the picture sent by Emma can see that there are people all over the place, not dead people, but drunk people who have drunk too much and fallen to the ground.

There have also been some changes in the order of the chairs in the hall, the original characters were disrupted in the cottage position, and the few who had a good relationship with Song Gongming were thrown into the class room.

Knowing the following situation, Tang Fang couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, did not stop to make friends with the compatriots inside, and also became the king of the mountain for a few days, playing the game of eating meat, drinking wine in a big bowl, and weighing gold and silver. Report a coordinate to the Banshee Pilot, and leave this world with the style of the East as before, and ascend into another small world.

What follows is a very classic local war scene of World War I and World War II, he still comes and goes like the wind, hurriedly farewell, and never interferes with anyone or anything inside.

After passing through many story spaces such as the small world of the American Civil War and the small world of the Warring States period in Japan, I finally came to the small world determined by Emma after many tracking, positioning and calculations.

According to Emma, for about 10 hours, the signal source that is constantly wandering through the cracks of the small world will pass through the land, and they just have to wait here in peace.

Different from the previous story scenes adapted from classics or historical battles, the small world that the three of them entered this time is similar to the setting of the western style world, recreating the American Hollywood style in the 50s of the 20th century

Descending from a hidden location, the trio changed into costumes that fit the era and walked towards the location Emma had marked.

Compared with Hollywood when the Tang Dynasty crossed over, Hollywood in the 50s of the 20th century was only beginning to take shape, without so many high-rise buildings, halls and halls, revealing a unique classical flavor of that era.

In fact, in those days, it was already synonymous with modernity and the forefront of fashion.

The streets are lined with curvaceous, rounded old-fashioned cars, punctuated by the occasional small Beetle, flanked by passers-by of all stripes, either eating coffee or sandwiches in their hands, or holding a booklet that I don't know if it's a script or not.

He noticed that the shelves next to the street were lined with magazines of the very fine of the era, and there were folded and hung newspapers.

He saw a very familiar face in the entertainment section of a newspaper. It wasn't from the face of an acquaintance, it was the memory of an era. If he's not mistaken, that person is Marilyn? Monroe, even in the 21st century before he traveled, this woman was still talked about.

Only then did he suddenly realize that the reason why the small world of Hollywood existed was because the Cameron Group and the Sandley Group wanted to satisfy the world's desire for that woman, not because the 50s were a booming period for the American film industry.

The content below the photo is roughly Marilyn? Monroe's "A Streetcar Named Desire" has been well received by relevant personnel in the industry, and it is hard to imagine that a young girl who is only twenty-five or sixteen years old can play the role of Blanche to the fullest, which is moving. Because of this film, civil society has paid a lot of attention to her, and it is predicted that she will win the Oscar for Best Actress for this film.

"Marilyn? Did Monroe win an Academy Award? Doesn't seem to have it......" He frowned and thought for a moment, then shook his head to dispel the chaotic thoughts in his mind, he didn't come here to get up close and personal with the people of the times like many tourists, he still had important work to do, Marilyn? How Monroe died, and what kind of scandal he had with Mr. President, he was not interested.

Walking along the lush and vibrant street for a while, the three of them stopped in front of a four-story building full of classical literary atmosphere, Tang Fang looked at the signboard on it, and said to Emma, "Are you sure it's here?" ”

"I'm sure it's here." Her answer was crisp.

"Let's go, go inside." He didn't hesitate and beckoned the two to go inside.

It is a Western restaurant, it looks relatively high-end, the interior decoration is not complicated, some simple, but with a variety of wine utensils, tables and chairs, waiter clothing, there is a very unique style, unforgettable.

It's morning, there are few people in the restaurant, melodious music is playing on the gramophone, motes drifting in the lazy sun, and idle clerks dozing off in the corners.

It's not time to get busy yet, so it's a good idea to sit by the second-floor window and watch the crowds flow outside.

Tang Fang walked to a table by the window and sat down, told the waiter to have three cups of coffee, and then looked out the window without saying a word.

The impression of the 50s is black and white, whether it is a movie with a lack of color, or an old photo, it feels so far away for him when he has not crossed over, and now he realizes that his previous perception of the 50s is too one-sided, there are also many colors here, there are also various temperatures, and compared with the era in which he lived before, it is more youthful and energetic.
