Age of Chaos Valentine's Day Special (Part II) Once Upon a Time in the South City

A sycamore leaf fell on Nancheng's head, and he looked up at the sky.

On the opposite side, a robot was pushing an old woman, and they were laughing as they walked down the road next to the flower garden. In the hand of the robot, a light came on.

"Grandma, look at your watch, your lunch is about to be teleported."

The old woman lowered her head and looked at the black and shiny watch in her hand. The watch flashed, and a blurry of milk and sandwiches appeared in the air, slowly becoming clearer and clearer, and then slowly landed in the palm of the old woman's hand.

"Hehe, it's good now, I don't need anyone to push my wheelchair." The old grandmother's eyes darkened just now, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Nancheng's heart sank, opened the portal, and left without looking back.

He couldn't bear to see the old woman's eyes again.

He came out into the street, and people were floating in the air. It's so well organized that it doesn't even collide.

He closed his eyes.

He still likes the country he used to be.

At that time, people would not float up, and they were still living conscientiously for food, and his father took great pains to get him, and said to him with a smile, you are our future.

At that time, everyone surrounded him, saying that he was delicate and cute, and he would make great achievements in the future.

At that time, he could still guard himself instead of not serving others.

His dad is still saying, I will always love you and take care of you.

He opened his eyes, and no matter how unbearable he was now, he had to survive here.

Nancheng turned on the accelerator, and he hurried home. It's time to pack your things and set off early.

He went back to the dilapidated room, picked up the Rubik's Cube box for his storage, and filled it with a few more things. The blue light worked in the room.

He walked out of the door, and as soon as he reached the corner, he saw a white hand on the ground. Further on, a girl with short curly hair fell to the ground, humming and grabbing Nancheng's trouser legs. "Hey, can you feed me, I'm starving, I'll do anything."

Nancheng was a little surprised, will there still be hungry people in this era? He reached out and helped her up, only to notice that her arm was slippery.

There is no watch on it.

"Oh, you're a robot, you want batteries, don't you?" Nancheng suddenly realized.

The girl raised her eyebrows: "No, no, no, not exactly, you can tell me if you can take me away first, I will really do anything." ”

Nancheng tilted his head and thought about it, as if he was indeed short of people now. He took a loaf of bread from his watch and handed it to her.

"Okay, you can follow me, but you have to help me."

"Okay!" The girl hurriedly snatched the bread from his hand, chewed it heavily, and the blurred words popped out of her mouth: "My name is Xiaoxiao." ”

Nancheng frowned, ran to the balcony and looked outside, then turned around and looked at Xiaoxiao seriously.

"When it's time for our next stop, I'd love to hear your story. Have you eaten enough? ”

Xiaoxiao wiped the crumbs from her mouth and nodded.

Nancheng took out another bottle of water and handed it to her.

They walked downstairs, and Nancheng saw that she was still very weak, so he slowed down.

He took her to the hospital, where the sycamore leaves were still floating.

Nancheng saw the old woman from afar, she was still in a wheelchair, this time there was no robot around her, and she was looking thoughtfully at the plane tree whose leaves had turned yellow and green.

Nancheng smiled, there seemed to be light in his eyes, "Aunt Lin, are you still bored, didn't you try the method I gave you?" ”

When Aunt Lin saw the arrival, her eyes were crooked with a smile.

"Xiaoyu, you finally came to accompany me. When people are old, they always want someone to chat with them, and your methods are not suitable for me. ”

As she spoke, she frowned again, tears looming in her eyes, "You say, are they not satisfied, they have to give themselves another fantasy, even such a beautiful life, they have to use a watch, to create another fantasy, even my son...... Fascinated by it too...... Since my last birthday, she seems to have made up her mind that she will never come out again, hmm......" She covered her mouth with her hand and choked out, tears sliding down her wrinkled skin and falling on the back of her hand.

Nancheng's eyes narrowed, his face was full of gloomy clouds, he held her shoulder, and said word by word: "Don't be sad, I will bring your son back to you." ”

Xiaoxiao stood aside, looking at the heartbroken appearance of this person who was over half a hundred years old, and her heart couldn't be calm.

They walked out of the hospital with mixed expressions on their faces.

The people on the street are still floating around, and few people are seriously walking on the street. He took out the gas chamber capsule, threw it into the air, jumped up, and stretched out his hand to Xiaoxiao: "You definitely don't have this high-end thing, come on." ”

Xiaoxiao took his hand and jumped on it as well.

After Nancheng finished typing the program, he turned his head and looked at Xiaoxiao. Seriously, he said: "We are going to a place, what you have to do for me is very simple, my boss is doing a job, a job of serving the whole world, I feel it, he is very tired, we are going to help him now, finish his work." ”

Xiaoxiao nodded.

They looked up, and the blue and dazzling sky was like a set. And around them, the well-organized people are glazed over. Nancheng sighed.

In less than a quarter of an hour, they arrived.

The air sacs burst as they touched the ground, leaving a trail of vapor in the air. The capsule fell steadily in Nancheng's palm.

"Alright, we're here." Nancheng looked at a ball of light on the grass. I took my watch and touched it.

The air around him began to twist and tremble.

They closed their eyes together, and when they opened them again, they were in a room that was white all around.

The voice that penetrated the eardrum sounded, and it was a beautiful female voice: "Welcome to the Vienna Hotel." What configuration do you need? ”

"Ordinary is fine, double room." Nancheng took the watch and placed it on the only glass stand in the room.

"Wait, loading." The female voice rang out again.

The surrounding space slowly changed, slowly turning into a door. Nancheng pushed it open and put his Rubik's Cube box on the blue light next to the door, and the box was suspended in mid-air.

"Wow, it's the first time I've stayed in such a nice hotel." Xiaoxiao chuckled as she collapsed on the big bed. Nancheng also sat down on the bed opposite, looking up at Xiaoxiao's eyes.

"Now let's talk about what's going on with you."

Xiaoxiao sat up and blinked. "I'm actually a human being, but my dad sold me to scientists," Xiaoxiao's eyes darkened.

"He used the money to buy his mother a watch, the same watch as he had in his hand, exactly the same watch. After I was sent away, the scientists put cold machines in my body, and I lived a miserable life. One day, the scientist fell asleep outside my incubator, so I snatched his portal and escaped, and met you three days later. ”

Nancheng's eyes were stunned, "In other words, you may still recruit chasing soldiers for me, it seems that saving you is really not a good deal." ”

Xiaoxiao immediately shook her head when she heard this: "No, they took off my watch, and now I don't know where I am." ”

Nancheng lowered his head and frowned. He already thought it was ridiculous when he saw the people on the street who were not conscious. He had only just woken up to find that the human who would still smile softly at him and be happy for a week over a trivial matter seemed to have lost his consciousness. They only have a shell, their souls are in the watch, to be precise, they are kidnapped by the relaxed and wonderful world in the watch, and the old woman he sees today is one of the few people who is still sensible. He's been watching her for a month, and she loves to see her beautiful smile, and that's true. He likes to see her sigh at the lack of a real person to help her push her wheelchair and talk to her, and that's true.

And those human beings, when they work, are in their watches, they are dummies.

He looked up at the ceiling, thinking all night, and all night without tears.

The next day, Nancheng pulled Xiaoxiao up early, and a villain lay on Xiaoxiao's quilt, looking at this pretty girl with wide eyes.

As soon as Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, she saw a fluffy doll looking at her, so she exclaimed.

Nancheng laughed, "Don't be afraid, this is my brother." ”

He lifted Xiaoxiao's quilt and said, "Quick, we're on our way." ”

Xiaoxiao grabbed her quilt and shouted, "I know, I know!"

Xiao Budian Nanxiao shouted in a tender voice: "Brother! Where is this? ”

"Little girl, don't make trouble, we have something to do."

He grabbed Nan Xiaoxiao's hand, and said to Xiaoxiao as he walked: "Let's go out and wait for you first, and you get dressed slowly." With that, he disappeared in the doorway.

Nancheng glanced at Xiaoxiao, who had already followed, opened the portal, and the three of them arrived in front of a light screen together.

Inside the light screen is the floor tiles in the city, and outside the light screen is red soil. The green screen of light circled the ground, drawing a curved arc that stretched out to both sides of them. The sky above them was still a pleasant blue color, but outside it had turned crimson and stretched farther into the sky.

Nancheng lowered his voice and glanced at Xiaoxiao obliquely.

"Come on, I know, you can let us pass."

Xiaoxiao's face rose with horror, and she looked at Nancheng in disbelief, her lips trembled a little, "You...... How do you know ......"

"Not only do I know, but I also know your story, so I don't think I'm done with it." This time Nancheng didn't look at her, and took out three capsules from the Rubik's cube box, the capsules were small, but there was a fragrance.

"Eat it, I guess I can't breathe the air outside." Nancheng threw the one in his mouth and swallowed it with his head up.

Xiaoxiao, hesitated, made up her mind, and threw the medicine in her mouth. She pulled out a small ball, and the air around it was twisting, and in a few moments, a small hole opened in the barrier, enough for them to walk through.

She gritted her teeth, although she was unwilling, she was still forbearing.

Nancheng gave the capsule to Nan Xiaoxiao and picked him up, Nan Xiaoxiao blinked his blue eyes and looked at Nancheng in confusion.

As soon as I stepped on the red earth, a wave of heat hit my face, and the soles of my shoes rolled up in a circle of scorch. After taking a few steps forward, Nan Xiaoxiao in Nancheng's arms glanced back.

There is no blue sky, the city, there is only a data line network, and there is a blue square floating on it, emitting a brilliant light, just like the light of the hotel light ball.

Nan Xiao turned his head in confusion, held back his tears, and lay in Nancheng's arms in fear.

They walked faster and faster, leaving only shallow footprints on the ground, and there was chaos all around, with bits and pieces of machinery and chips everywhere.

There is a black line on the ground, which is always exposed to the earth, extending into the distance, and the beginning of this line is the square with blue light.

They walked along the line, Xiaoxiao seemed to be thoughtful on the side. But the body could only stiffly follow Nancheng.

"Xiaoxiao, don't struggle." Stop in the South City. Look at Xiaoxiao. "You know that your system has been controlled by my virus to the death, and you are still struggling, in fact, you have also been persuaded by me a little, don't you think, we have an obligation to end all this."

Xiaoxiao glanced at him and narrowed her eyes as if she was fated.

"Nancheng, since you already know, why bother to talk to me here. It's just that I'm not good enough to fight you. ”

She opened her eyes, and the scenes flooded back into her mind.

She managed to sneak through the portal and fled far from the base station, and before she could breathe a sigh of relief, a pair of hard palms pressed against her shoulders and pushed her to her knees. Xiaoxiao's tears fell all at once, and her whole body trembled violently.

The man smiled, "Miss Key, who gave you a hundred dares to run?" ”

He looked at her trembling body.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to tell you good things. I'm not going to take you back. We've heard a big deal lately, somebody is going to get out of here and do something, and I want you to watch him and see what he's going to do, and don't let him succeed. ”

A hint of coldness flashed in the man's eyes. "I'll give you the good, though, and I'll reunite you with your bad dad and pretty mom. Is it a deal? ”

Xiaoxiao bit her lip, a look of indecision flashing in her eyes.

"Good! Deal! Don't forget what you said! ”

The hand on her shoulder loosened a little, and she staggered away.

And a picture of a smiling boy has been sent to her mind.

As soon as she looked up, Nancheng looked at her expressionlessly.

"You're finally out of it. It's tiring to hold back. Nancheng threw the Rubik's cube box on the ground, and the Rubik's cube box was immediately assembled into a hut.

"Come in and sit down, it's all out anyway, I'm not in a hurry, you listen to me tell a story first, otherwise you may not have a chance to listen to it in the future."

Xiaoxiao went in in disbelief, and didn't forget to close the door. The room was made of metal, and there was nothing but two stools.

As soon as the door closed, the hut began to tremble.

It turned out that it was just to keep out the storm, not to tell a story......

Nancheng smiled, and a deep voice spat out of his mouth: "Actually, not far from outside, there are other countries, but they are different from us, they also live in barriers, but their world is not as small as a block. ”

"They have also created a new environment with new technology, but you can't say it's ridiculous, why build a barrier to isolate yourself from the land where you have lived for hundreds of millions of years, when you can use technology to purify the outside environment?"

Speaking of this, he smiled, but there was not a hint of pleasure in the laughter.

"Actually, I lived a long time ago, my dad brought me into this world to change the world, to make life easier in this world, when people were still working for their livelihoods. And his partners are crazy about being androids, new technology, and trying to change the world. I was very young and didn't understand anything, except that my mother sang to me every night, and I was happy like any other child. ”

He added: "My mom wasn't as demented as people are now. ”

Xiaoxiao was amused by him and giggled on the side.

"After it happened, my dad froze my memories and put my body in the freezer until a few months ago, when I woke up. It's the same with Tiny. His gentle gaze fell on Nan Xiaoxiao, who was licking his fingers.

"You really can't imagine how happy we were at that time, every time I see Aunt Lin's lost eyes, I will regret why I didn't wake up. And my dad was also taken away, and they said that as long as I gave them the technology, they would let my dad come back. But later, when my mother pushed us into the freezer, I learned that my dad would never come back. ”

Nancheng's eyes met Xiaoxiao's eyes, and a determined light shot out.

"Believe me, Xiaoxiao, let's release your mom and dad together, let's go and end it all, do what other countries don't want to do, you know, the next road, without you, I can't go, that one bread brings effect, can't control you for so long."

Xiaoxiao hesitated.

Although his father betrayed himself, after all, blood is thicker than water, and he also very much wants to know what the happiness in Nancheng's mouth is.

She smiled, pulled Nancheng's hand up, and shook it: "Okay, I'll help you, but you have to always invite me to eat bread in the future!" ”

Nancheng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled comfortably.

The hut retracted a block, and a red color appeared in front of it. They walked a long way forward, and the black thread was getting thicker and thicker under their feet. And Nan Xiaoxiao has also been transferred to Xiaoxiao's hands.

Nancheng pouted, "You said that those scientists are also boring, why do you want to build the switchboard so far, I'm going to be exhausted." ”

"Besides, what kind of flying capsule do you have?" Xiaoxiao glared at Nancheng.

Nancheng scratched his head.

"That thing can only be used once, and I only have one!"

Suddenly, Nancheng flew out along Xiaoxiao's back and slammed into the ground, stirring up red dust. He scrambled to his feet, his brow furrowed.

Xiaoxiao was stunned, and hurriedly ran to him and squatted down, looking at him anxiously.

Nancheng smiled bitterly.

"I forgot I told you that there was a mechanism."

"No wonder you gave me Nan Xiaoxiao." Xiaoxiao helped him up.

Nancheng clasped Xiaoxiao's hand, patted the ash on his pants, and continued to walk forward.

"Miss Key, you're going to play your part again." He smiled.

When they passed through the place they had just walked through, there was no force on Nancheng, and they easily passed through another light screen.

As they walked, the lights flickering and flickering.

By the time the air outside was already very hot, they could faintly see a small hill in the distance, a black hill.

Nancheng's eyes flashed, and he walked faster with Xiaoxiao's hand, and his pace became heavier and heavier.

The black thread came to an end on the ground, and when I looked up, I was connected to a complex but weathered computer and database.

Nancheng paused, took a deep breath, and slowly entered the last light screen with Xiaoxiao.

This belongs to the computer, the light screen that keeps the crimson dirt out.

Xiaoxiao put down Nan Xiaoxiao, who was struggling in his arms, and his eyes were still like dead ashes just now, his eyes were full of tears at the moment, and he stumbled towards the big black guy.

"Brother......" his fleshy little hand caressed it, and pressed his face to it.

There was a trace of sadness in Nancheng's eyes, and the surging tide rolled in his eyes.

Nan Cheng hugged Nan Xiaoxiao and touched his forehead, and a chip as dark as the computer floated in the air.

Nancheng picked up Nan Xiaoxiao, reluctantly pasted his nose, and said dotingly: "Little girl, go and help my brother plug this chip back into that computer, okay, it's in that red glowing mouth." ”

Nan Xiaoxiao's eyes still have tears in them, but they no longer have a look. He staggered as he approached the computer.

Nancheng looked back at Xiaoxiao and handed her a gas chamber capsule and a Rubik's cube box.

"When the meeting is over, you can open this, and we will run away."

Xiaoxiao's eyes widened.

"End the program? Aren't you going to destroy the world in the watch, the program is over, and everyone will die! ”

She took a step and trotted south, but it was too late, and his soft hand had already fed the chip into the socket.

Nancheng smiled, turned into a dark light, and burst open.

A memory card is shattered in the air, and a picture is glowing.

A humanoid robot opens its eyes, and a man with a stubble on his face dances happily with a wrench.

After a while, it turned into a robot and helped a child to walk leisurely, and the child smiled a face, which was clearly Nan Xiaoxiao's cute face.

He sat on the ground, the robot hurriedly went to help, the child laughed, the man with stubble also laughed, the robot was stunned, and a strange but rapid laugh came out of his mouth.

This beautiful picture is fleeting, and in a blink of an eye, there is another picture, a man with a stubble on his face sweating profusely, anxiously pressing the robot into the freezer, the robot resists, there are no tears on his face, but there is a mournful cry.

But it was still a step too late, and the robot boy was pulled out of the ice by force, and he stood on the ground, only to be slid by the slime all over the ground.

That's blood.

Those men were cruel, pumping out the robot boy's brain and heart, pulling out shredded pieces of machinery and broken data cables, and the robot's heart-rending screams and gasps.

They programmed it overnight, even shut down the swarthy machine, put it to sleep forever, and gave orders that he could not end his own life, but could only run for humanity forever.

At this point, the memories begin to break off.

In the return to color, it is a boy waking up in a swarthy machine and running outside. The demented eyes of the people on the street appeared in the boy's eyes, and he trembled and screamed in despair as he looked at the sky, tears streaming down his neck.

Seeing this, Xiaoxiao was already in tears, because when the robot looked up, she clearly saw that familiar face.

That's the South City.

In the end, the robot found the freezer and pulled out Nan Xiaoxiao, who had been dead for a long time, from inside.

Xiaoxiao opened the air capsule, ran inside, and quickly entered the program.

How could he bear to kill the humans who created him, how could they live without barriers? Xiaoxiao frowned, and the Rubik's Cube box jumped out of her hand and fell on the red earth.

At this moment, Xiaoxiao had already flown far away, and although she regretted not holding it firmly, it was too late to go back and get it.

The distant air began to distort, the blue light shone into the sky, quickly extending to his side, the raindrops fell, the cool, red ground also gave a faint green, the air was no longer hot, but the fragrance of stretching.

Xiaoxiao suddenly realized that the small square had appeared in front of her.

It no longer shines as brightly as it did when it first saw it, and next to it is already lying full of people who don't know what is happening.

Xiaoxiao landed beside them, looking nostalgically into the distance.

He believed that the people who had created it for him could climb out of nothingness again and rebuild their homes.

Just like the country did before, rebuilt again, rebuilt.

The leaves of the plane trees on the ground were blown by the breeze, and the wind also stirred up the hair.

A sycamore leaf fell and fell on Xiaoxiao's head, and Xiaoxiao looked up at the sky.

Who knows what she's thinking.
