Chapter 417: There is no one in Yangguan in the west
Yamamoto reached the end of his life, and he did not find a girlfriend, let alone a so-called robot companion. Maybe he's a perfectionist himself, or maybe he doesn't need a partner at all......
Who knows?
This group of elderly people who have left the world is probably more than 1,000 people. Many scientists came to see them off, especially their peers in Unreal Labs, silently bidding farewell to these pioneers who had made great achievements.
Listening to the conversation between these two people, they all showed sad looks.
Several staff members carried these old people one by one to the device like a hibernation warehouse.
Yamamoto lay down quietly, put on his helmet, and his eyes were wide open, as if he wanted to take one last look at the world.
He said, "Gone." ”
Zhang Yuan's throat shook for a moment, and finally he didn't say anything.
Life in the virtual world will be chosen by yourself, what you want to do, what will happen, no one can predict, and there is nothing to command.
Even, the time spent in the Kunlun Mountains is only a short period of time in the long cycle. This is the beginning of life, not the end.
"Do you have any regrets?" The nurse in the neighborhood asked.
"Nope." It took a long time for Yamamoto to reply.
"Please close your eyes."
The door of the warehouse slowly closes, and after the consciousness is uploaded, all the remains of the vegetative people will be used for biological research, especially the study of the human auxiliary brain......
Everyone exited the room, and then left silently.
Zhang Yuan leaned on crutches, sighed deeply, did not cry or laugh, and walked slowly in the corridor. It's like a cloud of smoke, a little numb.
He is always followed by a robot nurse, always keeping an eye on his physical health. After all, if this kind of old man accidentally falls, he may go directly, and the government departments are also quite concerned about their physical condition.
His wife, Lin Xuanxuan, was also attending a similar farewell ceremony in the next room, having just exited the room, wiping her eyes incessantly. She is not like Zhang Yuan, she has experienced this kind of thing many times, but she still can't help but cry.
Zhang Yuan was silently by his side for a long time, and Lin Xuanxuan gradually returned to normal.
"Let's go, let's go outside and look at the stars!" Zhang Yuan greeted.
"I don't know if I'll go first, or if you'll go first, or if we'll leave this world together?" Lin Xuanxuan followed behind and said in a low voice.
"In a few years, let's be together then...... There is always an advantage to living a long life, even if the physical condition is getting worse and worse, I always want to stay here. Zhang Yuan said: "We came to this world alone, and we should leave alone." It's impossible to really take anything away anyway. Oh, the only thing that can be taken away is memory, but not drinking Meng Po soup is not necessarily a good thing! ”
"You're so cold, aren't you a little sad...... Good friends are gone, never to be seen. ”
Zhang Yuan said: "Sad...... Sadness is a good thing, and without such negative feedback, humans can't learn anything. Without this sentiment, humanity would have been extinct in primitive times! But the sadness of this kind of thing doesn't make any sense. ”
The two walked to the observatory and sat down quietly. Their physical condition no longer allows them to go to the gravity-free zone outside.
The observatory is placed on top of a circular centrifugal wheel, and the entire starry sky rotates with it.
The brilliant universe always soothes the mind. Whether it is a great scientist or a high-level civilization, compared with the great universe, the life and death of an individual, the ebb and flow of the tide, all seem so small that they can even be ignored.
Even the stars will go out, let alone humans?
Lin Xuanxuan suddenly said: "A long, long time ago, my grandmother said that every star represents a person, and if a meteor falls, it means that someone has died." ”
"yes, but you don't see a meteor in this place...... There may be more stars in the Milky Way than there are humans. With so many stars, are they cats and dogs? Zhang Yuan joked.
Lin Xuanxuan has long been accustomed to Zhang Yuan's thinking, "You are really ...... However, for many people, cats and dogs are also relatives like relatives, and they will be sad when they die. People are fragile creatures, and the older they get, the more accustomed they become to being in their accustomed environment, and even the glass they use is broken. ”
"But we all know that any hug in this world will end in letting go."
Zhang Yuan nodded in agreement: "What happened cannot be reversed, and the past time cannot be turned back." The past is an eternal loss relative to the present. What do you miss most? ”
Lin Xuanxuan pondered for a while and said, "Maybe before leaving the earth, say goodbye to grandma." My parents were very supportive of my decision to board the Earth Era, but my grandmother was different. I don't know why, but I can still recall my grandmother's tearful appearance, maybe she is very afraid that she will not see me in the future. ”
“…… I was so immersed in the excitement of going on a space trip that was more excited than the sadness of separation, and it was hard to appreciate the nostalgia of an old man. ”
"In the blink of an eye, I also became grandma, which is really embarrassing...... What about you? What impressed you the most? ”
Zhang Yuan said again: "It should be after graduation, and I will be separated from my classmates." A long, long time ago, when I had just graduated from college, I was the last person in my dorm room. ”
"I still remember the scene of them moving away one by one, I was sleeping on the bed when Ma Yidong left, and when he left, he patted my bed and said goodbye, and when he walked out of the door and saw his empty bed, I really felt that we would not have the opportunity to live together like this, and suddenly there was no desire to sleep at all."
Then there was Li Wu, who was admitted to the graduate school of our school and continued to stay in his school, and I helped him carry his things down and watched him push his bicycle and ride away. But even if he stayed at his school, I knew that I might never see each other for as long as I did the other day. ”
"Finally, there is Zhang Jun, whose family conditions are not very good, and he has started working before graduation."
"On this day, he came back from outside, hurriedly packed up and left, I stood at the door and asked him, give him a ride, he said no, he carried a crossbody bag, he shook the bag, I quietly watched him leave slowly along the corridor at the door of the dormitory."
Then he suddenly turned around and came back and hugged me......"
Zhang Yuan said calmly: "This is goodbye, sometimes the period, or exclamation mark, or ellipsis mark, always have to be filled in by hand." ”
"Persuade you to have a glass of wine, there is no one in Yangguan in the west."
