It's a mysterious weirdness, and Yan Zi will call him a man.

Since he can remember, Yan Zi has spent most of his time in the tavern conscientiously performing his job duties, more than 3,700 years ago, no one can live for more than 3,700 years, and Yan Zi has also never said that he is a human.

She's a doll, a service doll with a mind.

But she didn't know who the owner of the self was.

As a puppet with a mind, Yan Zi is free, although there are many pre-set instructions in her mind, but the owner who created her did not force her to carry out these instructions, in other words, Yan Zi can pursue the freedom she wants regardless of the instructions.

In the first five hundred years of her birth, Yan Zi never left this tavern for half a step, but completed the work duties assigned to her by her master step by step, not so much that she did not dare to leave, but that she could not leave, because there seemed to be a voice in the dark to warn herself, once she left, it meant that she would never see her master again in the future.

A thousand years later, the patient Yan Zi began to lose patience.

Fifteen hundred years later, Yan Zi left the tavern for the first time.

Eighteen hundred years later, Yan Zi returned to the tavern and never left.

In the past three hundred years, no one knows how many unknown things Yan Zi has experienced in the world, the only thing that is certain is that her choice to stay in the tavern forever must be related to these three hundred years.

3,700 years have passed, and history seems to have opened a new chapter in the process of continuous reincarnation, the times have changed, but mankind has not changed, so mankind will continue to repeat the mistakes of history.

Yan Zi has received countless guests, from emperors and generals, to ordinary people, people of all kinds of status, status and personality, in terms of looking at people, she has already trained a pair of fiery eyes, and she has not looked away in the past thousand years.

As for now—

But she looked away at a "person".

His name is Chen An, a "person" with countless identities and personalities.

At the beginning, he came to the store as a young man who had just graduated and worked shortly ago, but unfortunately, he did not survive the stage of enlightenment and died.

As a result, "he" came to the store again shortly after his death, this time, he was an underground singer who was roaming in Yujing.

Every time he received him, Yan Zi would give him a spiritual meal, but every time the other party couldn't survive the spiritual stage and died.

As soon as he dies, the next "he" will come to the store.

The cycle repeats, and the cycle repeats.

Ordinary people naturally have fear, but Yan Zi will not, because she is a puppet, a puppet without fear, and even she is not curious, let alone has the intention of finding the root cause.

The instruction she adheres to is that those who come are guests, and besides, in the more than 3,000 years of reception, she has not seen a stranger weirdness than Chen An.

......

......

If you go back in time, that is, the early days of the Big Bang, there are countless possibilities at this point in time, because the experimental results of particle impacts are uncertain, and if you want to change one's fate, a slight disturbance in the upper reaches of time will give birth to countless possibilities.

The past is constant, the present is volatile, and the future is always changing.

The obscure ancient texts in the Book of Changes have explained this, the ancients could not use science to clarify their ideas and views, and philosophy replaced the ideas they wanted to express, when science developed to a certain point, science began to interpret the philosophy of the ancients, but science also has the limitations of the times, in order to pursue truth and answers, wisdom will sooner or later think of another way to solve the problem.

Human beings are insignificant, compared to the universe of tens of billions of years, human wisdom has not yet evolved to a higher level will be annihilated, and the same is true of aliens outside human vision, arrogant human beings think that they are loved by the universe, in fact, human beings are just ordinary life members born from countless possibilities in the universe, in the invisible place of human beings, I don't know how many lives originate and die.

In the eyes of humans, the life of insects is pathetic, and in the eyes of long-lived species, human beings are pathetic, so can bugs be equal to humans? Of course, as long as long-lived species are not born on the same planet as humans.

If the longevity species and human beings are born on the same planet, once the longevity species is not aware of the threat of human beings and is wiped out, then the human race will eliminate the clean and longevity species, which is a racial contradiction and a longevity contradiction, especially when the longevity species has problems in reproduction.

Many fantasy genres have depicted similar problems, but few people have a deep understanding of the exclusivity, independence, and coexistence of human beings, and the possibility of one side destroying the other.

The real Chen An, the main Chen An stands in a dimension that cannot be touched by human beings, he is seeking the true meaning of life, and with the help of the existence of the main god, he seems to be like a restricted puppet.

One task after another, one experience after another, just like his self in countless time and space, his self repeating himself.

God is too far away from human beings, and Chen An is his own God.

He's taking his own step, just as humans are taking their own step.

Tens of billions of light-years of the universe, countless stars, physical constants like the lowest arithmetic plagued Chen An, the answer at the beginning of the universe, he tried to find the answer, but at the end of the day, he found that he came to a circle, an endless circle.

The universe of the circle, there are countless universes outside the circle, and there is a circle outside the countless universes, and there is still a circle outside the circle......

It's a desperate discovery, and even more desperate is that you never seem to be able to reach the end.

The road is long, I will go up and down and seek.

Chen An did not stop chasing the answer, because he had no reason to stop, after all, when he chose to embark on this road, he gave up his most important feelings.

He doesn't know if his choice is right, his emotionless self is like a flawed life, whenever he falls into a dilemma that he can't solve a problem, he will stop and think for a moment, gently pluck a string of time, he will see countless ordinary selves, feel the strong emotions of joy, anger and sorrow.

Is this true for everyone who has come to his point? Especially when the road ahead is difficult to navigate, everyone invariably chooses to find another way.

At least the Lord God is like this, and the "system" is like this, each of them wasting seemingly meaningless energy on the primary intelligent life.

Chen An often encounters the chosen son of this era with the help of "me" vision, and others admire and envy him, but they don't know that this is the result of a deliberate effort by someone above the high dimension. On the contrary, Chen An never interferes with "my" choice.

......

......

Chen An shook his groggy head and walked out of the bedroom slowly, just when Xia Qin came back from going out to buy breakfast, and saw Chen An who was unspirited, she would inevitably ask with concern and curiosity.

"Chen An, what's wrong with you?"

"I had a messy dream, and when I woke up, my brain felt swollen and uncomfortable, so I would wash my face and rest. ”

Chen An yawned, waved his hand at Xia Qin and walked towards the bathroom.

"It's not early, it's time for me to go to work, and I'll put breakfast on the table. ”

Before Chen An finished washing, he heard Xia Qin hurrying out.

"Stay safe on the road. ”

Chen An spit out the foam in his mouth and said loudly, regardless of whether Xia Qin could hear it or not.

Back in the living room, Chen An took the steaming buns and soy milk on the table and ate them, and looked at the wall clock on the wall.

Ten past eight.

There are still fifty minutes to go to work, and it is still early.

At this time, the mobile phone charged in the bedroom suddenly rang, and he hurriedly got up and walked towards the bedroom, but his knee hit the corner of the sofa, and he gasped for air conditioning, and slammed into the double bed in the bedroom, unplugged the charging cable and picked up the mobile phone on the bedside table.

"Hey, Mom, what's the matter with calling so early?"

"Your grandma came over in the evening, you and Xia Qin don't forget to come to dinner together. ”

"You told you about it yesterday. ”

"You kid, you said it yesterday and can't say it today?

"Okay, okay, I know, I'll pick up Xia Qin home after work. ”

Ending the call, Chen An rubbed his knee where the pain had been reduced, changed the pajamas on his body by the way, and dragged it until about 8:30, he picked up the key on the living room table and went out to work.

Driving from home to the unit is only a few kilometers, even if you encounter a traffic jam in the morning rush hour can arrive in time, after all, Chen An has not encountered similar things, traffic jams are not terrible, what is terrible is to encounter a slight car accident, especially the electric car that is rampage on the road, if you don't pay attention to it, you will scratch, and you can only admit it if you are unlucky.

Fortunately, I arrived at the unit with a smooth ride today.

As a civil servant of Qingshui Yamen, Chen An's work cannot be called busy, and he can solve his work step by step.

Approaching the end of work, Xiaobao called and said that he had made an appointment with two buddies in the evening, and it happened to be closed tomorrow weekend, and everyone went to the bar to relax, but Chen An wanted to go back to his parents for dinner, and by the way, he talked to the old man, so he had to decline Xiaobao's kindness to make an appointment another day.

After a whole day, it was almost 12 o'clock in the morning when she returned to her home, and Xia Qin was so tired that she planned to take a bath and sleep as soon as possible.

And Chen An, who was also tired, lay on the sofa weakly, watched a boring variety show with the remote control on the TV, took out his mobile phone to swipe the circle of friends, and replied to some messages.

When Xia Qin came out of the shower, if it wasn't for Xia Qin's call, he would almost fall asleep on the sofa.

In the bedroom, Xia Qin lay on the bed early, with a mask on her face, and browsed a variety of online products with a tablet in her hand, and she didn't bother to take a look at Chen An, who came in after taking a shower.

"Chen An, when are we going to have a child?"

At night, when they are ready to go to bed, the young couple will chat.

"Didn't you say that you didn't plan to have children in the past two years? Why did you suddenly change your mind today?" Chen An said in surprise.

"Alas, you don't know that after those colleagues in our department came back from maternity leave, they are now talking about children one by one, and I can't hold on to them anymore under their influence. Xia Qin pouted and sighed.

"I don't have an opinion, anyway, everyone in the family is urging, why don't we ...... today"

"Have you forgotten that my aunt is here?"

“......”

Midnight.

Chen An woke up in a daze, and feeling thirsty, he got up and went to the living room to pour himself a glass of water, and went to the toilet by the way.

He seemed to be suffering from insomnia, because he didn't feel sleepy, so he just lay down on the couch and turned on the TV to watch a football game on mute.

At the end of the game, Chen An was still not sleepy.

Boredom, he went to the balcony and looked down on the quiet city from above, and occasionally he could see the ghostfire boys with the roar of the exhaust pipes quickly shuttling through the empty streets under his nose.

For some reason, he always felt that something was wrong.

It's like—

Everything was too bland.

The question is, isn't it good to be bland? Isn't that the life he's been pursuing?

Looking up at the starry night sky, he took a deep breath, shook off the cranky thoughts in his mind and prepared to go back to the bedroom to lie on the bed, but a meteor streaked in the night sky attracted his attention.

"Meteors?"

He couldn't help but mumble softly.

And then—

What's even more rare is that this meteor seems to have smashed in its own direction.

"it?!"
