In an antique courtyard in Yanjing City, Lin Xu sat on a recliner in the middle of the courtyard, looking at the clouds in the sky, and listening to the ancient records playing on the gramophone not far away.

The sun hanging in the middle of the sky, the sun shining warmly on the body, just as it had been for millions of years, when the earth was still orbiting the sun.

However, the reality is that the sun in the sky is only simulated by the nuclear fusion simulation of the sun in the ecological dome.

Cities all over the world have basically been frozen in ice, and only a few cities have been preserved by Lin Xu as an urban ecosystem.

Yanjing City is one of them.

Miss Qiu, who was dressed as a maid, with black silk and absolute realm under her short skirt, came with a cup of pudding milk tea in her hand and placed it on the small table next to Lin Xu.

Fruits such as grapes and bananas could also be seen on the table, as well as the perfect diamond-shaped objects the size of three bottle caps, which Lin Xu had been studying, although he had never made much progress.

But he always felt that this thing was not simple, so he didn't directly throw it to Taiyin, Yingfu, and Qiming to do any destructive experiments.

"Thank you." Lin Xu said casually, picked up the pudding milk tea with a straw inserted and prepared to drink it.

He still prefers pudding to bubble tea.

However, before he could put the straw in his mouth, he was stunned.

"You're in a maid's outfit?" Lin Xu was surprised.

"Don't you like it?"

"I like it."

"If the owner likes it, it's fine." The corners of Miss Qiu's mouth twitched and said.

Lin Xu knew that it was because she wanted to try to smile, but unfortunately she didn't do it well.

"Master, the preparations for dormancy are ready." While Lin Xu was drinking milk tea, Miss Qiu got down to business.

"A thousand years, and if you wake up again, it will be a thousand years later." Lin Xu sighed.

Then he asked, "By the way, where are we flying now?" ”

"Just crossed Neptune."

"I'm about to leave the solar system!" Lin Xu sighed again.

Drink all the milk tea in your hand and stand up.

"Let's go, one last look at the sun."

Outside Yanjing City, on the frozen earth, a huge planetary engine sprayed a blue pillar of light into the sky, and below the planetary engine, there was a winding Great Wall and mountains.

Lin Xu was wearing power armor, standing on the wall of one of the sections of the Great Wall, looking up at the sky, which was already the size of a ping-pong ball.

Miss Qiu was behind him.

Until Lin Xu let out a long breath.

"Go back, wake up and you'll be in Proxima Centauri."

The distance from the solar system to Proxima Centauri is 4.3 light-years.

The 10,000-year-old voyage group traveled this distance for 500 years.

Today, the entire Earth is heading for Proxima Centauri, and the speed is naturally not as fast as that of a cluster of ships sailing away.

It would take a thousand years.

But when you think it's a planet, it's pretty fast.

Anyway, for Lin Xu, how long it is just a matter of sleep, and he doesn't feel that a thousand years is unacceptable.

Lin Xu still remembers that there was an old song called "A Thousand Years Later", although he was 10,000 years later, he still had a lot of feelings about another thousand years later.

However, what Lin Xu didn't expect was that when he woke up from the dormant warehouse again, it was not a thousand years later, but nine hundred years later.

And because of the emergency, he was awakened.

"Is this a thousand years from now?" Lin Xu felt as if he had just closed his eyes, and then he was woken up, and looked at Miss Qiu outside the dormant warehouse and sighed.

"I'm sorry master, only nine hundred years have passed, and now it's the year 10680 of the Voyage Calendar, and you were woken up urgently."

"Emergency wake-up? Is something wrong? Lin Xu was taken aback and hurriedly asked.

"Master, let me explain it to you." A confused voice rang out.

"We've discovered an autonomic mechanical aggregate that appears to have been released by humans for reconnaissance when they were stationed in Proxima Centauri. Later, as humanity left Proxima Centauri and resumed its voyage, the autonomous machine was permanently on standby, and should have been on standby for 10,000 years now. ”

"If we can restart this autonomous machine, its internal database will be of great help to us to understand what humans did in Proxima Centauri 10,000 years ago."

"Then let's start, is there something wrong with calling me up?" Lin Xu was puzzled.

"This requires your authorization."

Coming out of the dormant warehouse and returning to his courtyard in Yanjing, Lin Xu understood what was going on under Ying's explanation.

As a high-level artificial intelligence quantum computer, this kind of self-disciplined machine can naturally be activated at any time.

However, Lin Xu's authorization is needed to take over the control program of the autonomous machinery.

The disposition of human property is a decision that only human beings can make.

Lin Xu, who understood all this, immediately authorized Yingfu.

So it didn't take long for Yingfu to complete the takeover of the lonely self-discipline machinery.

Lin Xu even sat on a recliner in the courtyard and watched a live broadcast.

The holographic image projected in the small courtyard can clearly see that in the pitch-black cosmic starry sky, the spherical entity the size of an aircraft carrier suddenly moves in a regular rhythm on the surface.

The spherical entity disintegrates into a myriad of large and small autonomous machines, which then self-assemble into a giant cone.

It's just that there are no weapons on the surface of this cone, but the engine vent behind the cone is even larger.

With an unusually large pillar of light erupting, this autonomous mechanical aggregate chased after the fast-moving earth.

At this time, the earth has entered a deceleration phase that also lasted for 150 years after 150 years of acceleration and 700 years of gliding.

But the speed is still very fast, there is no way to stop at all, and naturally it is impossible to wait for it, so it can only let it catch up by itself.

Lin Xu watched the live broadcast the whole process, and even in order to let him see it clearly, the artificial sun in the sky was intimately adjusted to a glimmer state and turned into an artificial moon.

It wasn't until Lin Xu finished reading it that he returned to the mode of the sun and illuminated the earth again.

Now that he has woken up, Lin Xu plans to continue to sleep in a few days.

So a few days later, he got a brief picture of the Proxima Centauri system, which he had compiled from the database of autonomic machines.

Although it was the case 10,000 years ago.

And looking at one of the pieces of information, Lin Xu's face was strange.

"Before humans left 10,000 years ago, they left some androids to take care of the factory in the curvature engine factory in Proxima Centauri?"

"Are these androids fertile?" Lin Xu asked.

"It doesn't show on the profile." Glitter replied.
