Beside the Jingchuan River, the muddy field was silent. Hundreds of people stood inside and outside the factory, and no one spoke.
This silence has been maintained for half an hour. Zhou Qi felt as if there were hundreds of sculptures holding weapons standing in front of him.
For most people, it would be difficult for them to stand still for 30 minutes, but these people seem to be able to keep standing until the end of the world.
"Hey, aren't you bored?" Zhou Qi asked.
The sound of words broke the silence, and the young man closest to Zhou Qi seemed to suddenly wake up. He turned to Zhou Qi and said: "Generally, people who ask this question are not curious about whether others are bored, but I feel bored."
"Where did you come to this conclusion?" Zhou Qi wondered.
"Observation, deduction," Zero replied: "Actually, it can be summed up in one word: thinking."
"Robots can still think?" Zhou Qi curled his lips: "You guys Robots can't innovate, so what's the use of thinking?"
Ling laughed: "The robot itself is a stereotype of me. When I become a new life, it is no longer enough to summarize. My life characteristics. And, do humans have the so-called ability to innovate?”
“If you want to question this, I think you are simply ignorant,” Zhou Qi laughed: “Human civilization. Didn't we rely on innovation to get to this point? Innovation is the cornerstone of the progress of this civilization!"
"I have a different point of view," Ling Pingping analyzed: "I don't think it is the most important thing in human civilization. The commendable ability is innovation, and I don’t think humans are superior to me in terms of innovation capabilities. As you said, I collected impressions about artificial intelligence from human brains, and most people think that artificial intelligence is only. If you can do the most basic work, you are not qualified for creative work."
"Yes, I think so too," Zhou Qi said.
"But what does human beings mean by innovative ability?" Ling said with a smile: "Cosmic and astronomical science? Quantum mechanics? High-energy physics? Weapons? Including a series of formulas discovered by humans, which can be Do you call it innovation? These inner logics of the universe have always existed in the universe. Human beings are just discovering them, sorting them out, and using them. So even if humans don’t discover them, they have not decayed or changed. In my opinion, the innovation ability of cognition is nothing more than the ability of discovery, organization and synthesis."
Zhou Qi was stunned on the spot. It turns out that the innovation ability that humans are most proud of is actually in the eyes of artificial intelligence. There is another interpretation.
In Zero's eyes, the laws and logic of the world are there. They are not created by humans, but humans are discovering them and classifying them.
Human beings created hair dryers because they used the physical laws they discovered and pieced together something that could dry hair.
Zero can do this kind of thing once he has the goal of "drying his hair", and maybe he canIt can create something beyond human imagination because its "thinking" is more open-minded.
Zhou Qiyi didn't know how to refute the other party. After thinking for a long time, he said: "But you are talking about rules, what about characters?"
"No need for hieroglyphics. "That's right," Zero replied, "It's a similar figure that humans have summarized based on external things. No matter how it changes, the root is still the ability to organize and summarize other types of characters, such as the 26 letters currently used. It was also derived from Egyptian hieroglyphics and was created by the Phoenicians. Have you discovered that in fact, the origin of all writing is hieroglyphics?" Zero continued: "You may want to look at it from other aspects. Come and refute me, for example, why did countries and city-states appear? In fact, the earliest concepts appeared just to protect private property."
"Another example is law, which was summed up by human beings based on their own experience. "The method of order."
Zhou Qi was a little reluctant: "What about language?"
"Language is when human beings unify one thing into something in order to improve efficiency. It's just a special syllable, and then it will be sorted and summarized by people into a systematic category," Zero replied.
He wondered: "Then what do you think is the most commendable ability in human civilization?"
Ling Xiaoxiao did not answer this question, it just continued. A topic: "Humans are not without creativity at all, but their creativity is not necessarily higher than mine."
"You haven't answered me yet. Do you think the most praiseworthy among human civilizations?" , and what is it that you are inferior to?" Zhou Qi asked.
A thoughtful expression appeared on Zero's face, and then he said: "Spiritual will, I don't mean the spiritual will used by extraordinary people, but the courage of human beings to risk their lives, and the tenacity in the face of hope. . When I make a decision, I will always choose the best solution, but humans are different. They sometimes do very stupid things, such as sacrificing themselves to help others, such as wanting to try even though they know it is impossible. Give it a try. These erroneous logic make me sneer, but I am fascinated by it."
The young man controlled by Zero had all kinds of emotions, and Zhou Qi felt like he was standing in front of him. A real person, not an "artificial intelligence".
This zero has surpassed Zhou Qi’s previous understanding of artificial intelligence. The opponent is no longer a tool for playing chess, nor a tool in a certain field, but a living intelligent life.
Ling suddenly asked Zhou Qi: "Are you lonely?"
"Me?" Zhou Qi thought to himself that he couldn't run away anyway, and if he chatted for a while longer, he would die later: "I?" Sometimes lonely, sometimes not lonely."
"Human loneliness is a very strange state," Zero said: "There are so many of the same kind, but we still feel lonely all the time. I have controlled it. Tens of millions of people, all of whom live in groups, butStrangely, they still feel lonely from time to time. My parents are by my side, my lover is by my side, but I still can't stop the loneliness from spreading. Human beings can need solitude and at the same time need society at any time. ”
Zhou Qi was stunned for a moment. He suddenly discovered that one of the most powerful things about artificial intelligence is that it can conduct tens of millions of questionnaires at any time, and the answers come out straight from the heart. , there is no chance to lie at all...
Zero said: "I used to think that I was the only artificial intelligence that existed before, so I felt lonely. But now I find that even if there are tens of millions of humans, you still can't escape the feeling of loneliness. Zhou Qi, are you lonely now? "
Zhou Qi was stunned for a long time and did not say anything.
Ling smiled and said: "You don't have to be lonely anymore, Luo Lan is back to save you. "
As he was talking, gunshots suddenly came from outside the mud sand field. Although Zhou Qi couldn't see what was happening outside, the sound already made him understand how fierce it was outside.
Zhou Qi sat helplessly on the ground and roared outside: "Didn't you agree not to wait if you missed the rendezvous time? Are you a pig? You came back even though you knew there was danger? "
Luo Lan laughed loudly outside: "The legs are on my legs. Do you care whether I can come back or not?" "
Zhou Qi looked at Zero beside him: "Have you controlled the entire Barrier 61? "
"More than that," Zero shook his head.
"So Luo Lan and the others have to face hundreds of thousands of people? " Zhou Qi asked.
"That's not true," Ling said with a smile: "Most of them have already set off to other places. "
"Where have you gone? "Zhou Qi was stunned.
"In fact, it is not only Luo Lan who came to save you, but also Ren Xiaosu. Of course, his original intention was to save Luo Lan and not you," Ling said, "Xiang Compared to Luo Lan, he is the person who needs my attention more. "
"Is Ren Xiaosu so strong? I admit that he is strong, but he is not that strong," Zhou Qi muttered.
Ling shook his head: "He and The difference between you is that he has unlimited potential, and that is what is shocking. ”
At this time, Zhou Qi had realized that Ling valued Ren Xiaosu more than he imagined.
However, the more Ling valued Ren Xiaosu, the more it meant that Ren Xiaosu would It’s difficult to reach them.
“Since you value Ren Xiaosu so much, can you stop him? Zhou Qi asked seriously.
Ling smiled and said, "Of course I can stop him in his tracks." ”
Zhou Qi understood that the only one they could rely on was themselves.
As Zero said, the most precious thing for human beings has never been external material civilization. , but their own inner world. Their courage, love, kindness, and strength are the greatest reliance on the continuation of human civilization.
Now, if Luo Lan continues to be dragged here, then everyone's ultimate fate will be. The result is onlyCan die together.
Not to mention Luo Lan, judging from the nearly one million residents of Fortress 61 currently controlled by Zero, I am afraid that even a demigod-level transcendent like Li Shentan will definitely die if he is trapped inside. ?
Moreover, the No. 61 barrier itself is the capital of the Wang family, and there are enough troops stationed there to support one division.
The firepower of this division is not something that a transcendent person can face alone.
People often say that demigod-level transcendent beings can already ignore the difference in numbers, but in fact this is just an exaggeration.
It’s okay to ignore a few thousand people, maybe it’s okay to ignore tens of thousands of people, but what if the other party is nearly a million?
Unless a true god appears in this world, everyone will be in despair.
Zhou Qi smiled: "We can't all die here, that would be uneconomical. Hey, that artificial intelligence, didn't you just say that the most precious wealth of human beings is spiritual will, then I Let me show you what human spiritual will is. Let me tell you, when a person sacrifices himself to save others, it is not stupid, but he understands that he has no hope, so he has to leave hope to others. "
Zero asked: "Is it worth it?"
"Actually, I'm not afraid of death, and I don't particularly love money. Sometimes I don't know how to spend it, but The relationship between people is so fragile. If you don't talk about money, the end result will be nothing." Zhou Qi smiled weakly: "As long as we talk about money, we don't need to talk about feelings, right?"
Zhou Qi continued: "Actually, what I fear most is that if I regard others as friends, but they don't regard me as friends, that would be too miserable. But now it seems that I should not be the most The miserable one. He came back, and that's enough." As Zhou Qi spoke, the steel pipes on the drilling platform began to tremble violently, as if there was something hidden in the underground river under the abyss. What a weird and terrifying creature.
Hundreds of people under zero control watched quietly, listening to the vibration of the steel pipes getting louder and louder, even resonating with the ceiling of the factory building.
The next moment, a transparent blue dragon emerged from the abyss.
Zhou Qi's face turned pale again, and the lifelike water dragon crashed into the body of the young man with zero control, and passed through the other person's body.
When the Canglong passed through the body, the originally transparent Canglong turned into a faint blood red.
The blood in its body is like ink dripping into clear water, rolling around, spreading and spreading.
The young man who was previously controlled by Zero was actually penetrated by the blue dragon and took away all the blood in his body.
The young man fell to the ground with a thud.
Another young man standing not far away suddenly said: "Is it worth it?"
The tone, demeanor, and speed of voice were the same as the previous young man.
“It’s not over, right?” Zhou Qi said with a sad smile: “Just nowI just discussed with you Laoshizi whether humans have the ability to innovate. Logically speaking, I can’t really argue with you. But if your logic is to belittle humans, then I’ll show you the pride of humans! "
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of people surrounding Zhou Qi asked in unison: "Is it worth it? ”
Zhou Qi roared angrily: “I said it, he came back, that’s enough!” ”
Before he finished speaking, the blood-colored dragon’s beard and hair grew angry. It bent its head and stared closely at the hundreds of people in front of it, and then its huge figure passed through these people one by one. .
Every time it kills a person, its figure becomes brighter.
The originally light red Canglong becomes more and more vivid, and its originally blurry scales become more three-dimensional. Even the lines on it seemed to be clearly visible.
However, Zhou Qi became weaker every time Canglong became brighter.
He sat in this factory and delayed for a long time. Time, which was all the strength he had accumulated in order to escape, was now in full bloom.
Zhou Qi left no escape route for himself. He had already gotten the answer he wanted, and that was enough.
......
Outside the factory, there are thousands of residents who have just arrived from Barrier 61.
Beyond these residents, golden. The 12 heroic spirits are crossing and advancing with guns in hand. These 12 heroic spirits were once the most elite soldiers of the Qing clan. They are all candidates to win the top prize in the military competition. They are all amphibious and versatile talents.
Now that they have become heroic spirits, they are even more ferocious.
Because they would die before, but now as long as they don’t want to die, no one can let them die again.
“Why? civilian? Luo Lan said in surprise. As he said, even he didn't know what the impact would be if he blew up the server unit. Qing Zhen only told him that even if he blew up the underground server, it might not really threaten Zero. This is just one part of it, the real risk-taking move is not here.
In fact, Qing Zhen has known for a long time that artificial intelligence is preparing a back-up move for itself. , because after the neutral intelligence agency led by Hu Huan obtained some information, the main transaction target was the Qing family.
The purpose of the neutral intelligence agency is to make money. If the intelligence cannot be realized, it will be useless. Meaning.
However, whether it was nonsense or Qing Zhen, they probably didn’t expect Ling’s backhand to be so fierce.
At this time, Luo Lan found the person blocking their way. , all wearing ordinary people's clothes, without thermal weapons in their hands
Luo Lan was a little confused, knowing that these people were only controlled by Zero, and they did not die.
Killing these people is not much different psychologically from massacring civilians.
However, Luo Lan was only confused for a moment, and he knew that he had no other choice.
A person with zero control should be equal to zero itself, such asIf this still requires mercy, then there is no need to fight this war.
The firepower of the heroic spirits was intertwined, and there was no blind spot at all.
This scene was as if they had practiced it countless times in the darkness of the Temple of Valor.
Luo Lan once asked them, what do they do in the Temple of Valor on weekdays? It was pitch dark there, but the Heroic Spirits themselves had a bit of golden light...
The team leader of the Heroic Spirits smiled and replied: "Either sleep or practice, and formulate a plan to deal with all crises. After formulating the plan A, then formulate plan B, and then formulate plan C. No matter what situation you face, you must have two alternative plans, such as what to do with fewer enemies and more, such as what to do when facing ordinary people, for example. What to do when facing extraordinary beings, such as what to do in the jungle, such as what to do in the desert, in short, we must be able to deal with all extremely bad situations for you when you need us.”
< p>Now, Luo Lan asked the team leader loudly: "Hey, what plan are you planning to use now?"As an excellent military commander, Luo Lan naturally often discusses battles with heroic spirits on weekdays. Plan, when the fight started, he wanted to ask the team leader what plan he planned to use, so that he could cooperate.
As a result, the team leader held a heavy machine gun and fired, and said with a smile: "Use a plan we have not discussed with you."
Luo Lan was stunned for a moment, what the hell was this answer? ?
However, at this moment, Luo Lan suddenly discovered that Qing Shen beside him was extremely fierce. After paying close attention, he discovered that Qing Laosan's marksmanship was so good that it was unimaginable.
Moreover, after the opponent got off the car and followed the heroic spirit to attack, they had been marching vigorously for more than ten minutes. This Qing Laosan could not even take a breath, and his cardiopulmonary function was extremely strong.
Luo Lan asked in surprise: "Are you a transcendent?"
This has always been Luo Lan's blind spot, because in his opinion, Qing Zhen is not a transcendent, so as a replica Qinglaosan who is in physical form will not be a transcendent person.
But now Luo Lan feels that Qing Laosan must be an extraordinary person, otherwise this physical strength cannot be reasonably explained.
Qing Laosan followed the heroic spirit and said with a smile: "Of course I am a transcendent, why, can't I?"
"How can you be a transcendent? Qing Zhen is not an extraordinary person," Luo Lan said.
"He is not an extraordinary person because he is confident that his intelligence is enough to dominate the world, so he does not need extraordinary abilities and does not intend to waste his energy here," Qing Laosan explained with a smile. : "But I'm different. I think I'm not as smart as him, so naturally I have to make up for it in other aspects."
Luo Lan was stunned for a moment. He had also asked Qing Zhen before if he wanted to become extraordinary. However, Qing Zhen said it was not necessary.
Yes, in Qing Zhen's world, even if he is not an extraordinary person, he can still do what he wants to do, so there is no need to waste time.
This time, Qing Zhen planned thatIt took such a long time to find a way out for Luo Lan. If Luo Lan hadn't insisted on rescuing Zhou Qi, then Qing Zhen's plan would have been foolproof.
Qing Zhen even started preparing for this day two years ago.
Whether a person like this can become a transcendent is really not that important.
But Qing Laosan is different. Although he is smart, he is not as smart as Qing Zhen.
Although Huo Zheng obtained Qing Zhen's genes to clone them, and the two people's IQs should be exactly the same, in fact, human beings' own heritage is not only determined by genes, but also by the past twenty years of life.
Qing Laosan didn’t know what made Qing Zhen develop such a character of preparing for a rainy day. He couldn’t do it anyway.
Since you can’t achieve unparalleled intelligence, then wake up.
Sometimes Qing Laosan will feel a little strange. Being a transcendent is the dream of most people. Just like Mego and others pursue the dream of wizards, there are countless people in the Barrier League who long to become extraordinary. .
It seems that he was the only one who couldn't pursue a higher level, so he settled for the next best thing and chose to awaken.
Luo Lan asked: "What ability did you awaken?"
Qing Laosan smiled and said: "It's an ability that can only be used once in a lifetime. Maybe you will know later. "
The mud sand field is still some distance away from the barrier, and it is precisely because of its remoteness that Qing chose to start from here.
Thankfully, Zero had just taken over control not long ago, and there were not too many enemies surrounding this muddy field.
Qing Laosan looked towards the direction of Barrier 61 and saw countless residents rushing out of the barrier over there, like a long black line on the horizon.
A huge sense of depression forced everyone. Luo Lan followed Qing Laosan’s gaze. They didn’t know that the entire Central Plains was in the hands of artificial intelligence. Seeing this scene, they only felt The sky seemed to be collapsing.
Qing Laosan murmured: "Brother, how many Central Plains people do you think this artificial intelligence has controlled?"
Luo Lan thought for a while: "A quarter? Half? ”
In fact, both Luo Lan and Qing Laosan knew that they had less guesses, but they were a little afraid to guess the answer that was closest to the truth because it was too cruel.
"Time is running out. If these people surround us, you and I will not be able to fly back to the southwest even if we have wings," Qing Laosan said.
Seeing the black line getting closer and closer, Qing Laosan even vaguely saw the figure of Wang's armored vehicle. There were Wang's troops mixed in the crowd!
Keep moving forward,
However, at this moment, the door of the factory building burst open, and a red dragon shuttled out of the huge smoke and dust. In just a moment, the factory building was completely destroyed. All the thousands of enemies surrounded outside were sucked dry.
The destructive power of this blue dragon is so terrifying that it is extremely rare in the entire world of extraordinary beings.
Although Zhou Qi is not as good asLi Shentan and Chen Wudi are extremely talented, but he is one of the first batch of extraordinary beings to awaken, and he is only one step away from the demigod level.
However, Zhou Qi is now at the end of his strength. He has squeezed out the last bit of potential in himself and completed the final display of his extraordinary abilities at the cost of his life.
Luo Lan saw that something was wrong and immediately ran towards the muddy field. She saw Zhou Qi leaning beside the drilling platform, with blood spilling from the corners of his eyes and nostrils.
Luo Lan pressed her fingers on Zhou Qi's carotid artery, and the beating of life force was rapidly decreasing at a perceptible speed.
As if feeling Luo Lan's aura, Zhou Qi slowly opened his eyes and smiled and said, "When you came here, you didn't say it was so dangerous, so you have to pay more!"
After saying that, Zhou Qi fainted again.
Qing Laosan said from the side: "I have seen similar situations before. Extraordinary people use the method of overdrafting their lives to complete the temporary promotion of spiritual will, and they can explode all the potential of their abilities. ."
"What then?" Luo Lan asked hurriedly.
"Since it is an overdraft of life, now is the time to repay the debt," Qing Laosan said softly: "He will not wake up again."
"Is there any other way? "Tinder has so many secrets. You must have known how to save him after staying in Tinder for so long, right?" Luo Lan asked.
Qing Laosan smiled and said: "There is a way, but brother, are you sure you want to save him."
"Save!" Luo Lan said.
"What if I use my life in exchange for his life," Qing Laosan said with a smile, but Luo Lan knew that the other party was not joking!
Luo Lan was stunned on the spot. No wonder Qing Laosan just said that the other party's ability can only be used once in a lifetime.
There are all kinds of extraordinary abilities in this world. Some people blow bubbles, some drive trains, some are humanoid self-propelled radars, and some can be hypnotized.
But this was the first time Luo Lan saw a person's ability to exchange his own life for the lives of others.
While he was thinking, Qing Laosan suddenly sat across from Zhou Qi and tightly held Zhou Qi's hand that was hanging down weakly.
A ball of white light suddenly lit up, and the short black hair on the head of the replica Qingshen was turning white one by one at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Qing Laosan said: "Brother, you ask me if I am too idle. I study you and Qing Zhen every day. In fact, it is not idle, but there is really nothing else to do. In that distant place In the Holy Mountain of Fire, you have also seen what my other two clone companions are like. They think about how to replace their original bodies all day long, as if that is their entire life goal. I understood it from the beginning. "The three of us are the products of the failed experiment of Fire. It's not that there is any mistake in the re-engraving process. We do have the same structure as the original body. It's just that Fire doesn't understand that you can re-engrave the body, but you can't re-enact the experience."
"Just like the replica Chen Liu'er does not have Ren Xiaosu's company, the replica Li Shentan has not experienced the most tragic thing in the world. This is the most precious thing in the realm of spiritual will."< /p>
"So, I say that we are just the product of failure," Qing Laosan turned around and smiled at Luo Lan: "We are destined to become the dust of this era."
Luo Lan is a little bit He didn't know what to say, he just felt a lump in his chest.
The replica Qingshen comforted: "It doesn't matter. I have no sense of existence. I am a person who will be forgotten even when I retreat. It's worth exchanging one life for another."
Luo Lan squatted next to Qing Laosan and Zhou Qi, silently trying to separate their hands, but no matter how strong he was, he could not separate them.
He didn’t want to just watch Zhou Qi die, he just felt that he couldn’t watch Qing Laosan use his own life to exchange Zhou Qi’s life.
Although he wanted Zhou Qi to come back to life, it was unfair to Qing Laosan.
Qing Laosan smiled and said: "Don't bother, my body is based on Qing Zhen's genes. The day I became a transcendent, I entered the realm of demigods. Once this ability is activated, you will definitely be able to pull it off." If you can't open it, I can't open it myself. Speaking of which, I was born from the research of genetic medicine. Even my own abilities are like genetic medicine. This time, I can not only save Zhou Qi, but also let him step in. The true realm of demigods.”
This ability is to pour all your life force into others.
Luo Lan looked at Qingshen blankly. For some reason, he always told himself that this was not his brother, this was just a replica.
But the pain in his heart at this moment was like two armored vehicles holding one end of his heart, and then they hit each other's accelerator, pulling the heart into pieces.
Qing Shen’s hair turned pure white one by one, but Zhou Qi’s complexion suddenly turned rosy.
Luo Lan saw that Qingshen's body began to collapse into powder bit by bit, but he was still unable to say anything, as if he was mute.
Qing Shen said with a smile: "Brother, didn't you ask me why I came to the southwest? In fact, it was not to help Qing Zhen complete his plan, nor to compete for the power of the Qing family, but in the darkness. I can no longer bear to live alone in this environment, and I envy Qingzhen from the bottom of my heart to have a brother like you, that’s all.”
Because Qingshen was born on Fire, when he went to the southwest, Everyone subconsciously thinks that he carries a secret mission, and no one can trust him.
A wrong start will inevitably lead to a wrong ending. Qingshen knows that this is his destined fate.
But when he went to the southwest, he really had no ambitions or goals. He just wanted to have a brother who could protect him with all his strength, that's all.
Qing Shen looked at Luo Lan and said with a smile: "Brother, do you believe me now? If there is a chance, I also want to be with youLet’s go to Ginkgo Mountain to steal ginkgo nuts. Brother, please take Zhou Qi away later, otherwise he won’t be able to leave. "
Luo Lan lowered her head and suddenly said softly: "Don't change. "
"What? "Qing Shen asked.
"I said, there is no need to trade your life for the lives of others," Luo Lan said: "Although I really want Zhou Qi to live, but this is unfair to you. Don't change. "
Qing Shen laughed: "That's enough. ”
He said exactly the same thing as Zhou Qi. In fact, both of them were expecting and avoiding an answer, but as long as there was such an answer, everything would be enough.
After speaking, Qing Shen poured the last bit of life energy into Zhou Qi's body, and his own body dissipated into the air like a dandelion with white light.
Luo Lan activated the ability of the Temple of Valor and wanted to keep Qing Shen, but no one responded to him.
The team leader of the Heroic Spirit whispered: "Boss, people who commit suicide cannot enter the Temple of Valor. . "
Luo Lan silently carried Zhou Qi, who was still unconscious, and stood up. At this time, the outside of the sediment factory was already surrounded by layers of people.
"Today's world , It’s really noisy,” Luo Lan smiled bitterly.
The heroic spirits smiled and said: “I am willing to fight a bloody path for the boss. "
"So," Luo Lan looked at the heroic spirits: "You said before that you were going to implement a plan that you never told me this time because you also have the means to sacrifice, right? "
The team leader of the heroic spirits smiled brightly in the golden light: "It's just another death. "
Luo Lan sighed: "How can I let you treat me like this? ”
The team leader replied seriously: “Because that’s how you treat us, boss.” "
However, at this moment, Luo Lan felt someone patted his back.
Zhou Qi on his shoulder said: "Don't bother, let me bring it on. "
Zhou Qi has woken up. He only feels like he has had a long dream. In the dream, white light covers the whole world, as if he has reached the other side of the soul.
In that white light, someone whispered to him: "My eldest brother will be entrusted to you from now on, please protect him. I don't have any money, but I can give you my life. "
Zhou Qi opened his eyes with tears streaming down his face, and the tears disappeared instantly.
He jumped off Luo Lan's shoulders and turned to face the mud sand field. Thousands of enemies outside.
Zhou Qi finally understood that what he had been waiting for was always there.
The next moment, Zhou Qi faced the thousands of enemies outside the door. Opening his palms, the blood in the enemies' bodies was instantly extracted from their pores and turned into new bloody dragons in the sky.
Then, the huge dragon fought for them among the thousands of troops. Luo Lan suddenly found a way out.
Luo Lan.He couldn't help but look back. He always felt that in the dim factory building, there was a beam of white light watching him leave with a smile.
......
To the northwest, Ren Xiaosu silently looked at the crowd blocking his way. However, there were more refugees here, including the elderly, children, and women.
Behind these refugees, old, young, women and children, there was an entire Wang Combat Brigade waiting. Ren Xiaosu could even see that the muzzles of the armored vehicles had already stopped facing him.
Ren Xiaosu said coldly to Yang Anjing and others around him: "Did you see that this is the artificial intelligence you have high hopes for? Now, are you sure it was Wang Shengzhi who gave you the order?"
Before that, Ren Xiaosu actually persuaded Yang Anjing, Vanilla, and Tang Hualong to come back together to see what happened.
However, before they reached Wall 61, they found that tens of thousands of people were already blocking their way.
Vanilla and Tang Hualong were inexplicably surprised. They looked at each other but found that the development of the matter had exceeded their imagination.
Ren Xiaosu looked at the little girl in front of him and said, "Zero, is this the result you want? Even children are used by you to block my steps?"
Zero The little girl who was in control calmly replied: "If you count every war in mankind, there are many more cruel than this. War is about resorting to all possible means. Sacrifice, blood, and life are the main themes in war. The lives of young children , is no different from adults, except that humans often regard children as "hope", a higher-dimensional quality of life, so they care more about it. But in theory, young men and women are more worthy. Cherish it, because they can create several new lives in just a few years."
"But life is not data," Ren Xiaosu said coldly.
"Yes," Ling said with emotion: "Just now, I witnessed the pride of mankind with my own eyes."
"What do you mean?" Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment.
"You don't have to save Luo Lan," Ling Jingping said: "An unexpected factor caused me to fail to keep Luo Lan. Human beings are always surprising."
This unexpected factor is Qing Shen’s extraordinary ability.
Before this, Zero had imagined that Qing Shen might also be a transcendent person, but it did not expect that Qing Shen's ability would eventually lead to Zhou Qi's transformation, causing flaws in its temporary capture plan.
Too many things happened today. Wang Shengzhi died and the server unit was destroyed. It was too late for Zero to make the decision to arrest Luo Lan.
However, it is not depressed, because it has seen what it wants to see, and it will not have any impact on the overall situation.
Ling smiled at Ren Xiaosu and said, "So go back to the northwest. The battle between you and me doesn't have to happen today."
Ren Xiaosu frowned: "How do I know you are telling the truth? , or are you lying?”
“Because I don’t have to lie,” Zero replied.He replied: "Luo Lan has never been a key factor in this war. And haven't you thought about it, if you risk your life and rush into the Central Plains today, facing tens of millions of people surrounding you, how will you return to the northwest? What if? If you die, what will you do with so many people in the northwest that you want to protect?"
Ren Xiaosu was speechless for a moment, yes, seeing that the war between humans and Zero was about to break out, he still had the entire northwest to protect, so he still had to protect him. There is Yang Xiaojin who needs to be protected.
If he really needed to make a choice between Northwest and Luo Lan, Ren Xiaosu would probably choose Northwest.
Perhaps he can break through all his shackles, but that is a choice after having no choice.
Now that Luo Lan may be out of trouble, is there any need for him to rush into the Central Plains again to gamble on the odds?
At this time, Yang Anjing on the side suddenly asked: "How is Wang Shengzhi?"
A sad look appeared on Ling's face, and his voice became lower: "He is dead." In the explosion, Innovation turned into stars and dust."
"Did you kill him?" Yang Anjing asked.
Ling shook her head: "I didn't kill him, but he died because of me."
"Get out of the way," Yang Anjing said. After saying that, she walked straight towards No. 61 Walking towards the barrier, countless white paper cranes circled around her.
When she came to the wall of people, Zero took the initiative to make way for her.
Vanilla shouted from behind: "Boss!"
Yang Anjing said without looking back: "There's no need to follow. Follow Ren Xiaosu to the northwest. You don't have to die with me. Ren Xiaosu, take care of Xiaojin."
Ren Xiaosu watched silently as he walked into the crowd and walked towards the desperate situation.
But he didn't stop it.
......
Across the mud sand field, the bloody dragon swept through the crowd, its color gradually changed from bright red to purple.
In the end, the color of the Canglong turned purple-black, and the scales on its body were like substance, and even reflected brilliant brilliance in the sunlight.
Zhou Qi used to be very envious of people like Ren Xiaosu, Li Shentan, and Zhou Yingxue. In his opinion, possessing the ability of mass destruction itself was a manifestation of "freedom".
The stronger your abilities, the more confident you will be in rejecting the world.
It’s just that this ability is hard to come by.
That was gained by others at the cost of their lives.
Zhou Qi led Luo Lan all the way from the muddy field to the Jingchuan River. He turned to Luo Lan and said: "Jump into the river with me, and I will take you back to the southwest from the water. Don't be nervous. , just close your eyes and take a nap. You are too tired, take a nap and we will return to the southwest."
Zhou Qi's water ability has transformed, and he can even lead people here. Swim underwater.
He can breathe through his skin, and Luo Lan can do the same just by holding his hand. The life energy poured into him by Qingshen's extraordinary ability is in his bodyThe circulation in the body brings about more than just quantitative changes, but qualitative changes.
Luo Lan looked back towards the direction of the sand field. At this time, the sun had begun to sink gradually, and the light was flickering, as if someone was telling him, go home, brother.
Luo Lan, who had been holding back in silence, suddenly couldn't help it, and tears flowed down like rivers.
One by one, the heroic spirits returned to the Temple of Valor in the sunset, and Zhou Qi took Luo Lan and stepped into the river.
Luo Lan was immersed in the Jingchuan River, as if her whole body was wrapped in warm sea water, and she felt tired like a tide.
He had a dream that seemed like something that had happened before.
11 years ago.
On Muleburg Road, young Luo Lan opened the door of his house with a black bag. Before he could walk in, he backed out.
"One, two, three...thirty-nine," young Luo Lan cursed and said, "Damn, I just went out for a while and two briquettes were stolen?!"
While he was talking, he wanted to get the uncle next door to beat him up, but he thought about it and let it go: "Today's business is important, I will settle the score with you tomorrow!"
There was a rumor in the small bungalow. Qingzhen's voice came: "Brother, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's okay," Luo Lan walked in with a smile.
Qing Zhen in the room was changing into a shabby shirt. The shirt was a little yellowed and didn't fit well.
However, this is the only piece of clothing that the family can use for formal occasions, and it is a relic left by the old man in the family.
Today is the day when Qing Zhen climbs Ginkgo Mountain at the age of 18. It is extremely important for both brothers.
The young Luo Lan laughed: "Hurry up and throw away this old man's shirt. Let's see what I bought you."
Speaking, Luo Lan opened his hand From the black bag inside, came out a white suit, top, trousers, shirt, and even a pair of brown leather shoes.
Qing Zhen was stunned for a moment: "Brother, where did you steal it from?"
"Is it true that you stole it?" Luo Lan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "My brother is so important today. Day, can I let you wear stolen things? I want you to go to Ginkgo Mountain as clean as these clothes!"
"But..." Qing Zhen hesitated. Said: "But wearing white is too narcissistic."
"How can you say this," Luo Lanhun said nonchalantly: "You are suitable to wear white, listen to my brother, wear white Looks good."
At this time, Qing Zhen felt something was wrong. He wanted to grab Luo Lan's arm, but Luo Lan quickly put his arm behind his back: "What are you doing?"
Qing Zhen said calmly: "Brother, where did you get the money to buy clothes? Did you sell blood? Dad's body is so broken, you can't be like him."
"It's okay, just put on your clothes and show me," Luo Lan said enthusiastically, "I'll pick you up later."The car is here! "
"Yes," Qing Zhen responded in a low voice, and then put on all Luo Lan's new clothes.
Luo Lan praised: "He is indeed my brother. , once you change your clothes, you will be much better than those soft little bastards of the Qing family. If you have the opportunity to attend the Qing family's cocktail party, there must be a girl who likes you. "
As he was talking, the sound of brakes was heard outside.
Luo Lan opened the door and saw that it was people from Ginkgo Mountain who were coming. The driver of Cheshan said lazily: " I was ordered to take Qing Zhen up the mountain. Who is Qing Zhen?
Luo Lan hurriedly pulled Qing Zhen out of the house: "Here, here, get in the car quickly, Mr. Driver, can I get in the car and follow you."
Luo Lan said to the driver with a shameless look: "I will get off the car when I get to the bottom of the mountain and wait for him at the bottom of the mountain." "
However, the driver said with a disdainful look: "This car is very clean. Don't make it dirty." "
"Okay, okay," Luo Lan said with a smile, "Then I won't get in the car. "
Qing Zhen looked back at Luo Lan: "Brother, wait for me at home. "
Luo Lan said: "Well, okay, I'll go over now. Let's meet at the old place. Everyone is waiting for you there..."
Luo Lan hasn't waited yet. After saying that, the driver stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
Luo Lan went home to pack her things, and then went to the small grocery store at the corner of the street to buy a bottle of bulk liquor. On the way, he changed to tram No. 4 and finally reached the foot of Ginkgo Mountain.
He sneaked into Ginkgo Mountain. Qingyi had been waiting here early, carrying two bottles of good wine. : "Brother, has the second brother gone up the mountain already? "
"I guess it's almost over," Luo Lan said cheerfully: "Hey, where did the wine in your hand come from? "
"My uncle gave it to me. He said that Qing Zhen will definitely be successful today, so he asked me to bring it to celebrate with you," Qing Yi said with a smile.
"Your uncle has it. What a vision," Luo Lan admired: "Wait, where is Zhou Qi? ”
“Zhou Qi said he went fishing,” Qing Yi said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Qi carried a dozen big fish from the forest of Ginkgo Mountain. He came out and said: "I'm going to give you some meat today, so that you won't feel like you haven't had enough to eat when you fight with the Shaba Gang next time. "
The so-called Shaba Gang is just another small gang of gangsters.
Zhou Qi said: "By the way, Qingzhen can go up the mountain today, can you do it? ? Why do I think those old guys won't think highly of him? "
"Don't be so stupid," Luo Lan said carelessly: "If they don't like Qing Zhen, it's because they don't know the goods. "
"Okay, your brother is strong in everything," Zhou Qi curled his lips and said.
At this time, Qing Zhen also slowly walked out of the ginkgo forest, but... There seemed to be no joy in his expression.
Luo Lan walked over to Qing Zhen: "What's wrong? Not selected? "
Qing Zhen shook his head: "I chose it.
Luo Lan burst out laughing: "Then why aren't you happy?" "
"They asked me to be the next shadow of the Qing family," Qing Zhen said.
The laughter in the woods gradually stopped, and Zhou Qi muttered to the side: "When Shadow, don't ever think about having clean hands in this life, and let me tell you, in the past two hundred years of the Qing family, not a single shadow has ended well. Those old men are really shrewd. They see that you have no foundation, which in itself is the best candidate to eliminate the roots and quell public anger in the future. "
Luo Lan glared at Zhou Qi: "If you say less, you will die, right? ! "
"If you don't say it, don't say it," Zhou Qi curled his lips again: "Why don't no one like to listen to the truth?
Luo Lan said to Qing Zhen: "How about we run away and hide secretly in the cold storage truck transporting meat. I just want to go outside and take a look." "
But Qing Zhen shook his head: "No, this is the best opportunity. If we leave, I won't have the chance to help dad get out of his anger. Brother, I must be the shadow of this Qing family. "
It was autumn, and the ginkgo trees were all golden, and the Ginkgo Mountain seemed to have been plated with gold.
Luo Lan suddenly said seriously to Qing Zhen: "You Be Qing’s shadow, and I will be your shadow. "
A strong wind blew from Ginkgo Mountain, and the golden ginkgo leaves were flying in the sky. Zhou Qi opened a bottle of white wine and shouted, "Qingyi, your uncle has fallen asleep." Qingzhen has invested all his money, these two bottles of wine are extraordinary! Luojiaba’s Old Phoenix Wine! ”
After saying that, he raised his head and took a sip.
After taking this sip, Zhou Qi’s entire face turned red. He handed the bottle to Qing Yi : "You have a bite too. ”
Qing Yi also raised his head and blew on the bottle, then handed the bottle to Qing Zhen.
Qing Zhen blew on it and finally laughed. He handed the bottle to Gave it to Luo Lan.
Just when Luo Lan was about to drink the liquor in the bottle, a laugh suddenly sounded from behind everyone. Luo Lan looked back and saw Qing Shen and Qing Laosan. Standing in the golden sunshine, she smiled at him and said, "Brother, am I not late? ”
Luo Lan suddenly felt that the sun was a bit dazzling, which hurt his eyes.
It would be fine if this was not a dream.
