At the edge of the dark abyss is a chaotic aura.

From a distance, it was a mottled light, but up close, it was a myriad of brilliant rings, which were intertwined and coupled with each other, burning in Ning Yuan's pupils.

These lights shimmer with colorful brilliance.

The spectrum spread out in mid-air, scattering the edge of the orchid, and only a strange red was left in the depths.

Like a rainbow, weaving a heavenly garment in the sky.

The wind stirred the sand and surged like waves under the ribbon of light.

As if floating on a sound diaphragm, the sand and soil will combine into intricate markings, which will be mixed with the optical flow to form a rare spectacle for thousands of years.

The yellow sand outside the road calls Jinse, and the streamer leads to the sky.

Ning Yuan covered his eyes with his hands, looked at the restless sand and light, listened to the wind whistling in his ears, and couldn't help but comment.

"It's beautiful."

"The light here is the result of the superposition of multiple composite space-times." "Some of the light is the light of the present but stops here because you can't find a target to send the energy, and some of the light comes from the past, it reflects in your eyes and you can't go back," Stewart said. ”

Guan Ya asked with some curiosity, "In the realm of time and space, is this kind of scene common?" ”

"It's not common, or it's almost none." Stewart said: "Most space-time collapses are caused by vacuum decay, and the moment the energy breaks through the barrier, the vacuum bubble expands, engulfing everything at the speed of light. ”

Hearing this, she sighed: "Sure enough, this time the space-time collapse is very gentle. ”

"yes." Stewart said, "Only the world created by the Spirit of Heaven can have such good fortune." ”

Ning Yuan then asked, "Then this world, is it real or virtual?" ”

"Truth and falsehood have never been clearly defined, and what is real to us is false to the other world." Stuart smiled, "We're a blind box world. ”

"That's right."

Ning Yuan nodded and continued to walk towards the dark border.

The surrounding light turned red, like the red glow of the setting sun.

In this red light, there is a trace of gloomy black.

He looked ahead, and there was nothing but a blanket of black.

"This is the horizon of this space collapse, and the light in it no longer interacts with the world." Stewart said.

"Light." Ning Yuan sighed.

Light is the yardstick by which all things are measured, and all things can only define each other within the speed of light.

Beyond the speed of light, it is beyond the frame of reference, beyond time and space, beyond the real and the false.

Standing in front of the darkness, he took a deep breath, and some inexplicable emotions rippled in his heart.

How did this happen?

Five days ago, he was just a poor boy eating instant noodles at home, staring at the single-digit views of his videos every day, not knowing where to go.

In those days, every single day he was tormented.

He didn't know where he was going or what he would end up into.

The embarrassment of life forced him to think, so he could only silently look forward to the video he had worked so hard to make.

But now......

He escaped from the laboratory of the Demon Cave Military Industry, killed the local gang boss in the hospital, and witnessed the fierce fighting of the top abilities in the alien space.

Escaped under the control of Dukarda, turned his head and fell into the vortex of eternal night, and learned the secrets of the sealed world.

Now, he is now going to travel beyond the cone of light in the flesh.

Across time and space, across light and sand, across everything.

Find a lost warp ship...... It's all gods?

A series of events drove him forward quickly, and there was no time left for him to feel nostalgic.

He wanted to say something emotional, say something very appropriate, and pretend to be a literary and artistic youth.

But when he thought about it, there were only two words left in his head.

it!

Hiss......

That's embarrassing.

Let's say, it seems that I am very unlevel.

Don't say it, and you can't slow down your feelings.

Ning Yuan scratched his head and hesitated.

"What are you waiting for, Ning Yuan!" Stewart urged, "Hurry in and find the warp ship, and go home for dinner after the eternal night!" ”

"Yes."

Ning Yuan sighed, and then shouted, "! Rushed into the darkness.

“？？？”

Stewart and Guan Ya had question marks on their faces.

The moment he stepped into the darkness, Ning Yuan felt that his body was infinitely stretched, like a twisted ring in the sky, and then fell silent in the darkness.

I don't know the years, I don't see life and death.

There is nothing here.

Unlike the night when he couldn't see his fingers, here, he couldn't feel anything.

You can't hear the background noise of nature in your ears, you can't see any signs of light in your eyes, you can't smell the air in your nose, and you can only feel the warmth of a tight wetsuit on your skin.

Not long after, he felt his body bulging and about to explode.

In this environment, there is hypothermia, hypothermia, imbalance, and there is no oxygen.

He hurriedly used his ability to stabilize his body so that it wouldn't explode like a balloon.

The wetsuit's built-in warmth system works so that the body does not freeze into an ice sculpture.

He put the mask on, took a deep breath of oxygen, and asked, "Gary, what's going on?" Didn't you say that you would stay still after the crossing? ”

"Don't worry." "You've crossed the critical layer, you've reached a pseudo-vacuum, and you're using essentia to find space-time landmarks," Stewart said. ”

After a long while, Ning Yuan gradually felt countless mottled shadows floating around him, as if they were tall buildings.

"Ning Yuan, do you see the shadow?"

"See."

"Try to move."

"Hmm."

Ning Yuan stretched out his hand and touched the shadow in front of him slightly, and in an instant, the sky reversed.

In that moment, he seemed to see countless buildings forming a complex geometric array, facing him directly, like the mirror space in Doctor Strange.

It's like a paradoxical city in Inception.

After a while, the sights were fixed, with upside-down cities rolling up into the sky and broken bridges connecting countless tall buildings.

The ground was covered with a layer of fine yellow sand, and the bustling crowd walked on the sand, leaving a series of footprints.

These people all had numbness on their faces. After seeing Ning Yuan's strange clothes, he just turned his head to take a look, and continued to walk towards his destination.

Looking at the city in front of her, Guan Ya was stunned and said, "Qinghai City ......"

"What's going on with this city?" Ning Yuan frowned and asked, "Did the earth cause this city to be like this, or was there a problem with the teleportation?" ”

"It's complicated." Stewart frowned and said, "In my imagination, this should be a desert in a different time and space. We just need to find the warp ship. ”

"And now?"

"The javelin superimposed images recorded in different airs at different times." Stewart said in a low tone, "It's hard to find the ship now. ”

"Is the ship still here?"

"It may or may not be."

"What do you mean?" Ning Yuan asked with a frown.

"Dukalda's javelin, which records a lot of time and space, is the record it left in breaking the seal." "Because of the missing code, I can't see how many planes it copied, and now they're superimposed," Stewart said. ”

"!" Ning Yuan couldn't help but scold angrily.

He understood the current situation.

That javelin records more than one time and space.

In the process of traversing, these planes and times are stacked on top of each other and entangled with each other.

No wonder the ground is covered with yellow sand.

Presumably, these flying sands from Dunhuang swept through time and space and blew into the city.

And the warp spaceship doesn't know which time and space it disappeared in.

It could be here, or it could be in another time and space.

The situation has become incredibly complicated.

"What should I do?" He asked, "Gary, how are we going to find that ship now?" ”

"It's still the old way, it's just that the mapping algorithm has become more complicated." Stewart said, "In my original assumption, after traveling through the past, it should be an unstable plane, and we can find it in the chaotic temporal current, along the path of the ship's disappearance. ”

"And now?"

"After the time and space are superimposed, they become stable, and I have to recalculate every time I travel through time and space."

"It just looks like it's a little more troublesome." Ning Yuan scratched his head: "Then let's just look for them one by one, we will find them one day." ”

"You look at the readings on the energy system." Stewart said anxiously, "There's only fifty-three percent of the energy left, and you can only use it six more times." ”

"Six ......"

A sense of urgency came over him.

Excluding the last communication with Earth, he could only travel through time and space five times.

In this limited number of times, you need to find the ship accurately...... I'll go, how can I find this?

Isn't this looking for a needle in a haystack!

No.

It's just that the sea has been drained, and it's not difficult to find a spaceship, there are too many uncontrollable factors.

"And." Stewart said, "Our goal is to find the ship, and I can't figure it out without any clues." ”

"Clues?"

"Yes." "We could see the projection of the ship before, so I can do the calculations, but where is the ship in this space?" ”

"yes."

Ning Yuan's brain buzzed and exploded.

Where the hell is the ship?

He looked at the upside-down city in the sky, the complex and changeable architectural projections, and the crowds on the streets, and his heart couldn't help but be depressed.

How do you find this?

"I'm confused." Guan Ya asked puzzledly, "Why did you come here?" Coming to this Qinghai City? There is a difference of thousands of kilometers between here and Dunhuang. ”

"Isn't this a disorder of time and space, anything can appear." Ning Yuan scratched his head: "God knows what kind of laws these superimposed space-time have. ”

"That's not right." Stewart thought for a moment and said: "It stands to reason that we should still be in the Dunhuang Desert, and the remaining space-time positioning on the javelin has always been in the desert, unless it is ......"

"Unless what?"

"The essentia chip on Guan Ya's body has changed the coordinate operation system of the javelin." Stewart said, "No wonder you will appear in Dunhuang after I activate the javelin. ”

Immediately afterward, she said excitedly, "I know what to do." ”

"Huh?" Ning Yuan scratched his head: "How to do it?" ”

"The space-time coordinate system on that javelin now works around Guan Ya." Stewart said, "Remember how I activated this plane? ”

"When there is a loud bang in the sky, you shine ......"

"Get out!" Stewart said, "When the gods appeared, I thought your consciousness was in the eternal night, so I activated essentia to retrieve it, and mistakenly activated the coordinate conversion system on the javelin. ”

"And then?"

And then ...... This coordinate conversion system starts retrieving your presence until it finds Guanya. Stewart said, "Because Guan Ya carries the essentia of the Heavenly Spirit in her body. ”

"This ......"

Ning Yuan pondered for a while and said, "If I'm not mistaken, these time and space created by the javelin all revolve around Guan Ya?" ”

"Yes." Stewart affirmed, "I've found the remnants of its search record, and so far, so far." ”

"So ......" Ning Yuan rubbed his chin and said, "So we will come to Qinghai City, because this is the historical trajectory of Guan Ya, which is also in the record of the javelin." ”

"That's right." Stewart said, "The moment we were walking through the darkness, the essentia signal I sent caused the second space-time collapse, which led to the stacking. ”

"I see." Ning Yuan nodded: "The system retrieved again, creating another time and space. So that's it...... So what are you talking about? ”

He already had a guess in his mind, but needed Stewart to affirm it.

Stewart didn't speak, and Guan Ya spoke for her: "I am the leader of the development of the warp spaceship, and if you follow the trajectory of my life, you will definitely see a warp spaceship." ”

"Sure enough." The corners of Ning Yuan's mouth curled up slightly, and he asked, "How should I do it?" ”

"Find Guan Ya in this time and space, and then I take the initiative to create time and space turbulence."

"Can you directly create space-time turbulence?"

"After figuring out the principle, I can more or less understand the messy code functions." Stewart said, "It's not hard for me to create a temporal disorder. ”

"Then why do you have to find Guan Ya at this time?"

"Because I want to pull Guan Ya from this time period into the system blacklist." "Tell the Javelin system that this isn't the Guan Ya we're looking for," Stewart said. ”

"Got it." Ning Yuan suddenly realized: "In this way, if you teleport again, you will not fall into this time and space again and stand still." ”

"The opportunities are limited, and we have to find a way to eliminate all distractions."

"Understood."

After finding a way, Ning Yuan smiled comfortably, and then asked, "Sister Guan Ya, do you know what point in time it is?" ”

Guan Ya thought for a moment and said: "Looking at the slogans on the street, it should be more than 20 years ago, when it was completed. ”

Slogan?

Ning Yuan's gaze stretched out into the distance, only to see a few big-character posters written in red font on the wall in the distance.

"Have more children and have more children, and serve the country."

"Preferential policy for childbirth, give birth to one more child, receive one more subsidy every month!"

"Laborers are the most glorious."

"These slogans ......"

Guan Ya said: "At that time, the ground had just been liberated, and there was a serious shortage of labor, and more people needed to replenish it, so the state promulgated a fertility policy. ”

"Ground liberation?"

"Back then, Cheng Yan's experiment failed, triggering a world war." "After the Great War, the ground was covered with nuclear radiation dust, which flowed with the ocean, the gas rose, and then spread to the whole world, and human beings were forced to hide in underground bunkers to survive," Guan Ya said. ”

She continued: "A hundred years later, mankind has finally found a way to clean up the radiation, and some developed underground cities have returned to the surface to establish a stable urban ecology and explore the possibility of recovery." ”

Listening to Guan Ya's narration, Ning Yuan couldn't help but think of the history of the earth that he saw in the process of algorithm adaptation.

"It's tragic."

Nuclear warfare.

Although it is different from what the editor of the self-media described, it will not destroy mankind and will not create a long nuclear winter.

But it will change humanity forever.

The crowd of people around them, passing through Ningyuan, trampling on the yellow sand, rushed to the destination.

At this moment, in the busy crowd, Ning Yuan, who was wearing a diving suit, was particularly conspicuous.

They would turn their heads to look at Ning Yuan from time to time, and in these eyes, sometimes surprised, sometimes ill-intentioned.

Also, this set of tight-fitting fully wrapped diving suits on his body is really too annoying, showing Guan Ya's graceful figure to the fullest.

This made Guan Ya a little embarrassed, and she said, "You can find a dress to wear, I feel like I'm playing something...... Erotic play. ”

"These people, are they real?" Ning Yuan asked suspiciously.

"For them, the world is real." "They're within the light cone of this plane, and everything around them belongs to the same frame of reference as them, so for them, everything is true," Stewart said. ”

"Those chaotic cities in the sky......"

"They can't see it." "It's the same as rockets, it's just a snapshot of an incident out of derangement, because essentia, you can receive that information, but they can't," Stewart said. ”

"Hey, these people will never think in their lives that the time and space they live in are just a moment of beauty created by a javelin."

Ay~

After saying this, Ning Yuan exclaimed to himself.

I'm not...... It's literary!

The master is finally not a sentence to go to the world!

Hey......

"Don't sigh!" Stewart scolded angrily: "Don't talk about Sister Guan Ya, I see you wearing a dress and standing in the crowd, I'm going to die of shame, you go find a dress!" Now you're like this, it's like standing on the street......"

"Gary!" Guan Ya said angrily: "This is my body!" ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Sister Guan, I often ...... this mouth" Stewart said: "Ning Yuan, you go quickly!" ”

"Okay." Ning Yuan shrugged: "I'll go find a set of clothes." ”

He then walked deeper into the city, hoping to find a piece of clothing to cover his body.

When it comes to the biggest difference between humans and animals, some people say that it is shame.

Shame floats with the size of the crowd.

Isn't that ...... When there are other people, people are individuals.

When there are no other people, people are animals?

Eh~ This argument seems to be fine...... No, it's just a social creature.

Monkeys, dogs, they will also be ashamed...... What is the difference between humans and animals?

Thinking wildly, he searched his surroundings.

Soon after, he found a pair of women's jeans and a hooded sweatshirt on a clothesline in an alley.

After slatching it on his body, he asked, "What's next?" ”

"You're wearing your clothes backwards, and your pants aren't zipped up."

“……”

He flipped his clothes over and put them back on, pulled up his trouser chains, and asked, "Now it's okay." ”

"Now this is the development zone of Qingshui City, as I remember, when I was a child, I used to ...... by the garbage bin in the development zone not far in front" Guan Ya was silent for a while and then said, "Looking for food." ”

"Huh."

Ning Yuan sighed.

He had heard about Guan Ya when she was a child, when she was abandoned by her parents and could only survive on the streets and alleys, looking for someone to eat the leftover food.

"At this time, there was a lot of waste to be built, the welfare facilities had long since collapsed in the war, and the institutions that specialized in the adoption of orphans did not take in the disabled children." Guan Ya said: "At that time, we had some small groups, so it could be regarded as a group for warmth. ”

"It's ......"

"If you can find those friends, maybe you can find me." Guan Ya said in a low tone.

……

After walking a short distance, Ning Yuan came to an alley.

The alleys are flanked by white gray walls painted with red paint with slogans encouraging fertility.

"Have more children and more children, and serve the society! Give birth to one more child and receive one more maternity allowance every month! ”

"The more you have, the more honorable you are, and if you have two children at home, you will be assigned work in advance!"

Underneath the slogan, there are two children, who look like they are five or six years old.

A little girl in a dirty dress with white scars on her skin and a swollen sarcoma on her neck.

She was grabbing a handful of wild vegetable roots, laboriously pushing them into the little boy's mouth.

The little boy was naked, covered only by a pair of wide shorts. His eyes were closed and he was chewing hard.

Seeing this scene, Guan Ya said in a heavy tone: "Because of the contamination of radiation dust, many children are born with congenital malformations. They don't have any ability to work, so they are abandoned by society. ”

“……”

Ning Yuan was speechless, so he had to be silent.

Living in peace, he has never encountered any of these situations, and he does not know how to evaluate them.

Once when he was surfing the Internet, he was able to explain the imaginary society in one way and go back and forth with netizens.

But the reality is in front of him, and he only has the emotion of sadness.

"Generally speaking, they don't live long." Guan Ya suppressed her emotions and said calmly: "Under the influence of the disease, they generally don't live for more than three months, and if they can survive to the age of ten, for them, they can be regarded as longevity." ”

“……”

"Wait." Guan Ya hesitated and said, "I remember, the two of them seem to be ...... Raven and Guan Xiaoyu. ”

"Surname Guan?"

"Well, after I was abandoned by my parents, I didn't know who I was, and they gave me the name." Guan Ya said: "Most of these orphan groups have the surname Guan, and some have the surname Lei, which is the surname of the mayor and his wife. ”

Ning Yuan took out the food from his arms and slowly approached the two children.

"Who?"

The little girl screamed in a hoarse voice.

After seeing Ning Yuan, she hurriedly protected the boy behind her, like a vicious wolf, looking at Ning Yuan viciously.

"Sure enough, it's the two of them." Guan Ya said with emotion: "Since I was picked up by my adoptive father, I haven't seen them again, I didn't expect that after so many years, they would be able to meet again." ”

Ning Yuan squatted down, smiled at the little girl and asked, "I want to ask ......"

"I, let's go...... Don't pester us! ”

The little girl pulled out a sharp shard of glass from her bosom, one end shaped like a knife, and the other end was wrapped in a strip of cloth.

She held the glass knife tightly and said tremblingly: "You, don't come here, I'll stab you if you come over again!" ”

"It's ......"

"These orphans, who no one wants, are in a very bad situation." Guan Ya paused and said, "Many people think that they are demons with nuclear disasters, and they hate them very much, and often kill them. ”

"Why?" Ning Yuan asked puzzledly, "They're just sick, where is the demon?" ”

"You know, but the people on this plane don't." Guan Ya said helplessly: "A hundred years of war have caused the education system to fall apart, and until now, universal ......education for all has not been restored."

"It's ignorant."

Ning Yuan said a little speechlessly.

Yes, in the previous life, some people thought that 5G would spread radiation and smash the signal tower.

In this chaotic time and space, they must have gone even further.

He thought for a moment, handed over some of his remaining food, and said, "Raven, Guan Xiaoyu, don't be afraid, I'm your friend, you see, this is food." ”

After hearing Ning Yuan accurately pronounce the names of the two, Guan Xiaoyu's guard relaxed slightly.

She looked at the strange packaging box handed over by Ning Yuan, and asked suspiciously, "Food?" ”

"Yes." Ning Yuan opened the seal of the compressed food, squeezed out some paste from it and put it in his mouth: "Look, this is food, for you." ”

Xiaoyu hurriedly grabbed the food, and after taking a bite and feeling fine, he hurriedly sent it to the little boy's mouth.

"Good, delicious." The little boy said weakly.

"Eat it." After Guan Xiaoyu saw Raven chewing, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

She turned her head to look at Ning Yuan, hesitated for a moment, and said softly in a very rusty tone, "Thank you, thank you." ”

"No thanks." Ning Yuan handed over the compressed water again and asked, "I want to ask a question, do you know where Guan Ya went?" ”

"Guan Ya?"

After hearing this name, Guan Xiaoyu immediately became angry: "This bastard! Someone is willing to raise her, and she will never care about us anymore! ”

"Leave you alone?"

"We don't ask her to stutter, she just comes to see us!" Guan Xiaoyu said angrily: "She hasn't come back since she followed the old man who collected the rags!" ”

"Small, small fish." Raven said weakly, "She's doing well, we should be happy." ”

"What a pleasure!" Guan Xiaoyu said indignantly: "She...... How did you get that word? Yes, she's a bastard who forgets to lose a few sticks! ”

How many people do you forget?

It's ungrateful.

Ning Yuan scratched his head, too, these children don't have the opportunity to be educated, so it's good to know an idiom.

"I ...... I didn't leave you alone! Hearing Guan Xiaoyu's words, Guan Ya shouted in Ning Yuan's mind, and then she said with some tears: "I went to look for you...... But you ...... They're all dead. ”

"Guan Ya ......"

"Ning Yuan, I'm sorry." Guan Ya said with some emotion: "I remember, after I was adopted, I brought food to them, but it turned out that they were all dead, all dead......"

"Dead."

"Yes, the corpse is in the sewer, mixed with the rotting corpses of other children...... Guan Ya said with a bit of a broken mood, "I ...... I thought I forgot, I shouldn't forget......"

"It's a good thing to forget such an uncomfortable memory." Ning Yuan said.

No wonder Guan Ya didn't recognize the two at first.

When she saw such a big stimulus, it must have been the brain's protective mechanism that made her deliberately forget about it.

Looking back now, it was really cruel enough for Guan Ya.

Guan Ya asked eagerly: "Ning Yuan, can you save them, can you ......?"

"Sister Guan, you know." Ning Yuan said in a low tone: "This time and space is just a moment. ”

"I ...... I'm going to have to watch them die again? ”

"......" Ning Yuan was silent, the answer to the question was self-evident, but he couldn't say it.

After a long while, Guan Ya's tone gradually calmed down.

"Ning Yuan, now I should be in the Lao Li scrap yard, let's go there."

"Sister Guan, you ...... You okay? ”

"How can it be okay?" Guan Ya tried her best to suppress her emotions and said, "Hurry up!" Ning Yuan, don't ......"

"Okay, I'll go."

After saying goodbye to the two orphans, Ning Yuan came all the way to the Lao Li scrap yard.

Mountains of waste newspapers, machine parts, and metal shelves are stacked in the yard, looking messy and neat.

There was no one in the acquisition station, and he didn't find half a figure after looking around.

"Lao Li Tou may have gone out to collect scrap, let's wait a while." Guan Ya said.

At this moment, her tone was still a little excited, and it seemed that she still hadn't gotten out of that hurdle.

"Okay."

Ning Yuan nodded, sat on a pile of garbage and waited.

After a while, the shadow of a tricycle appeared at the end of the street, and an old man was pushing forward with his tricycle.

There was a thick layer of scrap on the car, as well as ...... A few children.

A woman in a heavy hood was walking slowly beside the tricycle, chatting and laughing with the old man pedaling.

"Guan Ya ......"

"I ...... I didn't know the woman and I didn't know why there were other children. Guan Ya looked at Lao Li who came from the cart, and said suspiciously: "Who is she......"

Hearing this, Ning Yuan suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly hid, hiding in the shadow of the garbage heap, and quietly hiding.

The tricycle got closer and closer, and Lao Li, who was riding the bike, shook the bell, laughed and hummed loudly.

"Sharpen the scissors, ...... the kitchen knife"

"Shut up! Don't you collect scrap? What are you doing here? The woman beside him heard this and said with some anger.

"Whatever Lao Tzu wants to shout, just shout,! Don't you understand the sense of the times? ”

"To get down to business, the boss has given a death order, and we must find an individual suitable for essentia in the shortest possible time." The lady said, "How many times have you failed?" Can you do it? ”

"Pandora Quinn." Lao Li Tou said with a smile: "You know, how can there be an experiment that does not fail? ”

Pen fun pigeon
