Volume 3 Chapter 132 The Unexpected Man
The stars are dotted, and the moon is not very bright. The brightest and most eye-catching thing at this time is www.biquge.info light stage where a song and dance performance is going on on the ground. And on such a night, no one will pay attention to what movement is in the sky more than 500 meters above the ground.
But at this moment, Lu Ren and Shirley, who had just turned around and were about to fly back to Yizhou, were stunned. As for the reason why Lu Ren and Shirley were so surprised, it was that on the same level as the two of them, there was a person who was looking at them coldly.
You must know that Lu Ren and Shirley, as well as this person who appeared quietly, their current position is more than 500 meters above the ground, and the height of a building is more than 100 floors. And such a height, not to mention in the era of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, even in modern society, how many buildings with more than 100 floors are there in the world?
In the same way, not to mention how incredible it was to suddenly see a person at an altitude of 500 meters in the era of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, even in modern society, it is basically surprising enough to suddenly see a person standing there at an altitude of 500 meters.
However, for Lu Ren and Shirley at this moment, they were not so surprised that this was not the case, after all, they themselves often flew around at such a high altitude, and they were a little used to it psychologically. What really surprised them was to find that on this person's feet, he actually stepped on a piece of anti-gravity glider that was exactly the same as the anti-gravity glider under Lu Ren and Shirley's feet...... Anti-gravity gliderboarding.
After being surprised, Lu Ren subconsciously asked: "You, who are you?" How can you have ......"
Before he finished speaking, the man interrupted Lu Ren's words, but his speech was a little slurred, and there was a taste of "plastic Mandarin" spoken by foreigners who only knew a little Chinese: "I should ask you this!" Who are you? Why do I have XXXX that is exactly the same as mine? ”
XXXX is a few very strange pronunciations, Lu Ren heard it in a fog, but Shirley on the side was so shocked that she stretched out her hands and covered her mouth tightly, looking like that, she obviously blocked a few words back. And then, Shirley was drying the man with an unusually careful gaze...... The brightness of the moonlight tonight is relatively poor, and the two sides are separated by a distance of about ten meters, so both sides can only see each other's figures, and the appearance or something Unless you have night vision, even if you have 3.0 vision, you basically can't see clearly.
Shirley's gaze immediately attracted the man's attention, and after looking back at Shirley a few times, the man was very surprised: "Strange, I shouldn't know you, but why do I have a feeling that I seem to be familiar with you?" ”
Shirley still covered her mouth and didn't speak, but her face had become as pale as paper, which startled Lu Rendu, because Lu Ren knew better than anyone what kind of background Shirley was...... To put it mildly, Shirley is a personal human, and before she becomes Lu Ren's maid, she can basically be equated with an emotionless robot.
This is after following Lu Ren, being "poisoned" by Lu Ren, and crossing over to "enter the WTO" for more than ten years, Shirley has become more and more "human". But Lu Ren knew that many times Shirley was deliberately letting herself have some human emotional reactions and characteristics. To be more objective, Shirley is actually acting, so that she herself is not so cold. If it weren't for that, Shirley would have reacted to anything without expression.
But now Shirley, this frightened look is simply a manifestation from the heart, and she is definitely not deliberately letting herself show such a look, to put it simply, Shirley is definitely not acting. And who is the person on the other side who can make Shirley look like this?
Is Lu Ren stupid? The answer is that Lu Ren is not a stupid person, and certainly not a person with extraordinary intelligence. And at this time, Lu Ren saw Shirley's expression, and then looked at the anti-gravity glider under the other party's feet, as well as the weird-sounding XXXX, and his mind seemed to be suddenly hit by the thunder that was approved by the Nine Tribulation Thunder above the Nine Heavens:
"Wouldn't it? Could it be him? But...... It's not the right time! Hey, I'm also confused, more than 20 years have passed, and I can't remember some of the things that Shirley told me at the beginning, so it's hard to judge. Besides, if it was really him, Shirley shouldn't have reacted this way, right? Ay? It's not easy to talk about this! ”
Lu Ren's mind was chaotic here, and the people over there wanted to say something again, but when he just opened his mouth and didn't say anything, his face suddenly changed greatly, and then the whole person fell into a state of pain to spasms. In this state, he glanced at Lu Ren and Shirley very reluctantly, and his trembling hand operated on the anti-gravity glider under his feet a few times, and then ...... It just disappeared, as if it had suddenly disappeared out of thin air.
This scene made Lu Ren stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and when he turned his head to look at Shirley, Shirley's state was also better. After a slight hesitation, Lu Ren asked, "Shirley, is that person, is ......?"
Shirley obviously understood what Lu Ren wanted to ask, and after taking a deep breath, Shirley nodded to Lu Ren and said, "That's right, he is the master...... Oh, my former master, I should say. ”
Although he was already mentally prepared, Lu Ren still felt his little heart beat a few times: "Is it really him?" But...... Isn't the time the right number? I remember that when you and I met more than 20 years ago, you once told me that you probably came to the earth in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties (170s), but now it is only 215 AD, a difference of about 1,500 years! ”
Shirley was already sitting on the board at the moment, and her hands were also holding her head stiffly: "Master, my brain is so messy now, and I can't think about many things clearly...... If I hadn't been an android, but a pure machine, the scheming would have crashed just now. ”
“……”
The corners of Lu Ren's mouth twitched a few times, and he shook his head and said, "At this time, you can still say such joking words, which proves that you are a living person and not a robot...... Okay, my mind is messed up, so let's find a place where no one is and land down and think about it calmly. ”
……
No one's seclusion is hard to find. After landing and calming down, Lu Ren first asked, "Shirley, we didn't see it very clearly just now, can you really be sure that he is indeed your former master?" ”
Shirley nodded: "You can't be wrong." In fact, at first, I wondered if I had made a mistake, or if someone from the same planet had come to Earth, but the state he was in before he left made me sure. ”
Lu Ren also recalled the painful state before the person disappeared, and some things that he learned from Shirley's mouth more than twenty years ago and are now almost forgotten by Lu Ren also recalled at this moment: "I remember you told me at the beginning that his body was irradiated by a black hole and could not be repaired, and finally made a broken chip...... Hey, I don't know what to say about those, but it's better to describe it in the words of an online novel. Anyway, he was going to do something like 'taking away' on me, right? ”
Shirley followed Lu Ren and read a lot of novels such as online fantasy, so she was very clear about the meaning of those words, and she also knew that it was more convenient and appropriate for Lu Ren to use this kind of word to describe it now: "That's it." But at the beginning, I didn't explain a lot of things to the master......"
Lu Ren hurriedly waved his hand: "It's not your fault, even if you want to say it at that time, I don't want to hear it, after all, this kind of thing is too scary to happen to me, and I will avoid that kind of topic as much as possible at that time." Anyway, for me, I just need to know that I picked up a beautiful maid girl and a lot of gold fingers...... People are willing to remember the good and not the bad. ”
Shirley smiled reluctantly: "But now I can't make it clear." In fact, the previous master and I have been wandering in the universe for I know how many years, and before I came to Earth, my original body had collapsed, and the previous master used many methods to barely control the speed of his body's collapse. ”
Lu Renqi said: "But hasn't he been playing on the earth for more than two hundred years? ”
Shirley said: "Playing is secondary, the real purpose is to find materials and medicines that can save you." Relying on those things I found, the previous owner was able to survive for more than two hundred years, and at the same time, according to the genetic characteristics of earthlings, I created my current body. In other words, my current body was originally an attempt by the previous master to save himself. But master, I don't know if you can understand it, I belong to the creation, it doesn't matter if I have previous memories or not, in the process of growing up, just pass on my original knowledge and code of conduct to me.
"To make it clear, I am not the original Shirley, but the Shirley No. 2 who inherited the knowledge and code of conduct of the original Shirley. And for an artificial maid like me, it doesn't matter if it's the original self or not, anyway, what we have to do is to serve the master, and we don't need to have any self-thinking, at this point, it's not much different from the robot, but we are angry, not as lifeless as the robot, and in many cases it is easier for people to accept than the robot. ”
Lu Ren almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, and said in his heart, what is the situation? Also his meow's Shirley No. 2? How do I think of Limpoli from "EVA" when I listen to it? In other words, in "EVA", what is the number of Ling Boli who finally said the sentence "I'm not your doll" to Commander Ikari?
Although it is a bit nonsense to talk about "EVA" at this time, it is precisely because Lu Ren has seen this kind of masterpiece at the beginning, so he can quickly understand what Shirley said, and there is no resistance.
But Shirley didn't want to say herself: "But the master, the situation of the previous master and I is different. My situation...... Heck, it's really inconvenient to use those scientific terms to describe it, or it's more convenient to explain it in the words of fantasy novels, like you are, master. Let's put it this way, my relationship with the original Shirley or the archetypal Shirley is a bit like a special population in some fantasy novels, and what I got from the first Shirley is like a talent inheritance of a special group. Master, you can understand when I say that, right? ”
Lu Ren understood as soon as he heard it, and summed it up very simply: "To put it simply, what you get is skills and knowledge, but you and the first Shirley are two people." It's like twins, although they are very similar in personality, knowledge and skills, but they are two different individuals after all. ”
When he said this, Lu Ren actually put Ling Boli's setting into it, but it was indeed quite suitable for Shirley's situation, and Shirley immediately nodded in agreement, and then immediately continued: "But the master, the previous master, what he needs is not my situation." What he needed was a complete ...... Well, to paraphrase fantasy novels, he wants to ensure that his soul is relatively intact, that is to say, what he needs is rebirth or rebirth, because only in this way can he be reborn and still himself. ”
Lu Ren also nodded and said, "I can understand this." ”
Shirley said: "Master, you know, the previous master is not an earthling, although he is very similar to the earthlings in appearance, but there are many differences with the earthlings in terms of body structure and DNA arrangement, which causes the previous owner to be unable to directly use the materials he collected to comprehensively repair the body, so the previous owner has been using various methods to continue his original body, which is basically equivalent to playing a patch on the left and a patch on the right, not simply remaking a patch and then inheriting it like treating me." And in the end, it was because his body could no longer be patched, so he had to use immature and dangerous brain chip technology to prepare to take away the master. ”
Lu Ren smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that his reincarnation brain chip was damaged by that car accident, but it turned out to be cheaper for me." ”
Shirley nodded: "Well, that's it. And the pain that the previous master showed before he disappeared just now was a symptom that his body was already in a period of collapse. This symptom has been present since the previous master created me, so I know this symptom very well, and because of this, when he had this symptom just now, I was completely sure that it was him, and I could basically determine that the previous master had just come to the earth. ”
Lu Ren thought for a while and asked, "Having said so much, I still don't understand how he could appear in this era?" He came to Earth in 170 years, right? There is a difference of more than 1,500 years from the current 210 AD! ”
Shirley was silent for a long time before she said in a somewhat uncertain tone, "Maybe that's the case...... In fact, as far as I know, before coming to the earth, the previous owner and the first Shirley actually didn't know how long they had been floating in the universe, and due to the destruction of the body by the black hole radiation, in order to prevent the premature deterioration of the physical state, the previous master and the first Shirley were actually in a state of cosmic travel in cryosleep, and the navigation was carried out by the ship's automatic navigation system. Then around the 200th century AD, the spacecraft was likely to have come to the vicinity of the solar system. ”
Lu Ren was dumbfounded: "And then it took about 1,500 years to slowly fly from Pluto to the earth's circle?" ”
Shirley sighed: "Master, don't look like this, it's not impossible." Don't forget, master, I told you that when the previous master's spacecraft came to the solar system, the damage was already quite serious, and the flight speed was actually very slow without using the last means of reservation, so with the distance before Pluto to the earth, flying for a thousand or two years is not too much. ”
Lu Ren couldn't help it, and knocked on Shirley's head with his fingers: "Then why did he appear on Earth in advance?" That's the most important question, okay! ”
Shirley rubbed her head casually, and said hesitantly: "Actually, I just figured it out...... No, it should be said that a more reasonable assumption has been made. Master, how long has it been since your unexpected crossing? ”
Lu Ren said: "It's been more than 20 years. What's wrong? What does this have to do with his early arrival on Earth? ”
Shirley nodded vigorously: "It's very relevant!" Assuming that the previous master had arrived near the solar system around 200 AD, then more than 20 years is just enough time for a communication wave to fly from the earth to the outer circle of the solar system. ”
Lu Ren was already more and more confused the more he listened at this time: "Communication radio waves? Around the time of 200 A.D., where did the communication radio waves come from on Earth? The call is all based on the sound waves of the roar! ”
Shirley was a little angry: "Master, why haven't you reacted yet?" This communication wave is sent by us! Ever since you crossed over twenty years ago, we have been in contact with each other through regular space-time communication, and with the exception of certain special circumstances, our communication is fixed to be once a month. Later, even after I crossed over, I still maintained a monthly communication with the Moonback Base. This kind of regular communication radio waves is already easy to attract the attention of others, not to mention ......"
Lu Ren also reacted at this time, and at the same time broke out in a cold sweat: "Shirley, you mean to say that our moon base and the spaceship here are originally the same thing, so the communication radio waves emitted when we communicate, where can he receive them originally?" And then this same radio wave, coupled with such regularity, woke him up from sleep, and because of the coordinates provided by the radio wave source we emitted, he could easily determine the bearing, and then activated the last means of reservation on the spacecraft, and flew directly over? ”
Shirley nodded slightly: "Other than that, I can't think of any other reasonable explanation......"
