Chapter 430 The Story of Dragon Bird
Longque had a dream, and in the dream was his fragmented life.
In fact, when he looked back many years later, he always felt that the world had many misunderstandings about him. The most important misunderstandings focused on his personality. He found that many people thought that he was born with that kind of energy and aura. A strong person, he is considered a lone wolf walking alone in the wind and snow, a sword that constantly sharpens itself, stubborn and tough, and never compromises.
But in fact he is not like this, he is not that powerful.
Never.
In fact, he was just an ordinary little boy at first. He was born in a coastal city in the north to an ordinary working-class family. His parents were both researchers and dedicated to the country.
My parents are the kind of people who make money from academic research to support their family, but if you really want to say that they have made any contribution to science, they are more like the kind of bastards who make money by applying for scientific research funds for projects. This kind of people are in the national system. There was a lot inside, and he only realized it later.
His father is a bit arrogant, and his research field is astronomy.
According to my mother, my father could not make any great academic contributions. He had been a junior researcher among researchers all his life, but he had fantastic dreams.
Because my father always claimed that he had seen aliens.
It can be said that Long Que was extremely excited when he found out about this, because he had been fond of science fiction since he was a child. He had also read the novel called "The Three-Body Problem" many times and watched related movies. People of all ages liked it. Looking up at the stars through a telescope at home with his sister.
But every time I asked my father about aliens, he always hesitated and couldn't tell.
My sister often said that my father was just bragging when he said he had seen aliens. He was probably just like those people in "Into Science", he was probably suffering from some kind of hysteria.
Compared to his parents, his sister is the one he admires more.
Because my sister is undoubtedly a genius, she is the kind of person who is born with strong energy and aura. When she was in kindergarten, she could command a group of younger brothers to run around, take the place of the teacher, manage the order in the class, and occasionally learn something. When it comes to knowledge, he is also very good at it. At the age of five, he can remember more than 4,000 English words, can perform function calculations, and can read ancient poems casually. He was even a child prodigy who appeared in newspapers back then.
But in fact, Longque knew that her sister's level was much more than that.
My sister studies through the Internet and has a terrifying amount of knowledge.
There are many questions that parents cannot answer, but my sister can answer them.
For example, Riemann Hypothesis, Fermat's Last Theorem, etc.
In fact, it is because of my sister's existence that my parents can get along well among researchers.
Because everyone thinks that they can educate their daughters so well, and their parents are also highly educated people.
But no one knows that many of his parents’ research results were inspired by his sister.
On the other hand, Longque is just a very ordinary child.
To this day, he still remembers those years when he was lying on the big bed in his bedroom watching superhero movies. His sister was at the desk next to her, quietly reading a foreign language book whose name he couldn't even read. Outside the room was the sound of his parents quarreling. , debate whether to buy a fuel vehicle or a new energy vehicle.
That was his childhood.
Regardless of the fact that the conditions at home are not bad, every family has problems that are difficult to recite.
For example, my father had a younger brother who was involved in pornography, gambling, and drugs. He was still a frequent visitor to the game in his forties. When he had nothing to do, he would go home and torment his brother, and he would ask his grandfather for money.
Every time, my father couldn't sit back and do nothing, so he could only stuff money into the trouble.
And whenever this matter is discovered by the mother, the two people will fight.
But my mother wasn't much better. She didn't know when she became obsessed with financial management. She always liked to invest with friends who claimed to have inside information, and often lost all her money.
But the amazing thing is that although these two people are noisy, they have never thought about divorce for so many years.
In the words of my sister, the life of ordinary people is such a chaotic life.
We are all ordinary people, and we will make the same mistakes that ordinary people make.
Later, the siblings went to elementary school.
Longque was very happy. He thought going to school was a very interesting thing. Not only could he make new friends, but he could also play football on the playground. At that time, his hobby was playing football and his dream was to become like Cristiano ·A great player like Ronaldo.
He was very happy when he stood wearing a red scarf and attended the entrance ceremony with his classmates.
The first day of school went smoothly. Longque got along well with teachers and classmates.
He is in class three and his sister is in class six.
But after school that day, my sister seemed very unhappy.
He asked, but the answer his sister gave was unexpected.
My sister said she thought people at school were as stupid as monkeys.
She didn't want to be with a bunch of monkeys.
My sister believes that the school’s teaching method is meaningless. It is just a formulaic selection of children with better learning abilities, and then sends them to other places to start a new cycle.
Its purpose is to solve some social problems.
For individuals, the value is not high.
Many people struggle until the end, and it would be more practical to go to the factory to screw the screws early.
Unfortunately, many people are unwilling to go to the factory to drill screws.
His sister said that there was no possibility for him to become the football player of his dreams. If his life was not interfered with, he would only have two choices in the end.
Either give up yourself or give up your dignity.
At that time, he didn't understand what it meant, but he felt that his sister seemed to have changed a little.
Became a little... cold.
A year later, his sister skipped six grades and was going to junior high school.
That day, his sister said that she would stay away from those monkeys.
Long Que said sadly that in his sister's eyes, he was also a monkey.
At that time, his sister's eyes softened a little, and she lowered her head and touched her head.
You are not a monkey, you are my brother.
At that time, the elder sister said: "I can protect you, you just need to be an ordinary person. But don't be a leek like mom, who worked hard for half a lifetime, but only heard some financial news, and her savings were swept away by others. Of course, don't be like dad, who got some things by stepping on the dividends of the times, but regarded that as what he deserved. Oh, you won't understand even if I say too much, just don't be like them, hysterical without knowing it."
Longque didn't understand at that time: "Then what kind of ordinary person do I want to be?"
The elder sister thought about it at that time: "Be a happy and real ordinary person."
Longque asked again: "What kind of life do you want to live?"
The elder sister didn't answer.
That was the first time that Longque saw confusion in her eyes.
Longque often felt that her sister was a transcendent person.
She saw through the laws of the world at a very young age and had a super talent.
No matter how hard Longque tried, he couldn't even see her shadow.
But his sister always took good care of him. When he was bullied in the school football team, she would come to help him. She could beat those much older students everywhere with a broom. Sometimes his sister would come to watch his training, holding a tablet computer and staying there for an entire afternoon. When she was bored, she would come over to kick a few balls with him, and she was hundreds of times more beautiful than him in cycling. Finally, his sister took him home by the hand. The two walked under the shade of the maple tree, and their backs were stretched out by the sunset.
The peaceful days passed one by one.
The parents kept quarreling, but their salaries did increase a lot.
The sister also kept skipping grades and became the youngest high school student in the country.
Longque also worked hard. Although his academic performance was average, he won the first place in the city's elementary school cup with the team and won the MVP of the final.
That day, he looked at the blue sky and felt that he had seen the future for the first time. He felt like the omnipotent Monkey King, who was about to cross the sea with a somersault cloud to reach the other side of the ocean.
But when he returned home with the certificate, a group of uninvited guests came to his house.
The man's name is Luzhe, and the woman's name is Anxian.
There is also a black-faced old professor who looks like Sha Wujing.
They are here to investigate my father.
At first, Longque thought that his father's academic fraud had been discovered, after all, his sister always said that his papers were full of nonsense and loopholes, which was simply nonsense.
But those people were not here to fight, but to investigate aliens.
In his early years, my father always claimed that he had seen aliens, and his papers in recent years were also about investigating the feasibility of the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations, but he could not explain what happened that year. He just saw some inexplicable phenomena when he passed through Siberia in Russia during his honeymoon and was in a coma for a whole day and night, that's all.
After the investigators confirmed my father's statement, they conducted a simple sampling survey.
Then they asked my parents to go to the hospital for a physical examination together.
The results of the physical examination were all normal.
The investigators were puzzled by this.
Until my sister returned home.
When the investigators saw my sister, their expressions changed.
But the investigators did not do anything to my sister, nor did they conduct any physical examination or interrogation. They just said hello and left in a hurry.
Another year passed, and my sister fell ill.
The cause was cancer.
Brain cancer.
It was a bolt from the blue.
Cancer was not such a serious burden for our family.
Because it was discovered early, and with insurance and other things, it could be treated.
But my sister's disease seemed to be a bottomless pit.
No matter how many times she had been treated, there was no improvement.
At this time, the investigators appeared, claiming to be from a technology company.
Aurora Technology.
There was also a man accompanying them, and everyone called him Doctor.
Aurora Technology said that they could cure my sister's disease, but the price was that she had to leave the city and go to the United States for gene optimization treatment and subsequent medical projects.
All for free.
Of course, the parents had no reason to refuse. As long as they could cure their daughter's disease, they could sell all their assets, not to mention that the other party's conditions were still free.
The only concern was whether the other party was a liar.
But after Aurora Technology said that the treatment process could be monitored throughout, the parents were relieved.
Long Que didn't want to leave his sister at that time, but he didn't have any say.
He also knew that this was the only way for his sister to live.
He was just frustrated.
He was just powerless.
The day his sister left, he felt that the sky was so gloomy, the crows standing on the telephone poles cried so harshly, and the future that was within reach suddenly became far away, as far as the horizon.
"Remember our promise at that time."
His sister still touched his head before leaving.
Long Que was very strong and didn't cry.
But since then, he has never played football on the playground, and has never participated in the training of the school team. Therefore, he was scolded and criticized by name by the physical education teacher.
But he didn't care at all.
Most adults are arrogant and tend to only see the surface of things without delving into the underlying causes. Therefore, they are always unable to solve the problem and will always regret it many years later.
It's not that Long Que doesn't want to play football, but that he suddenly lost his love for football.
He suddenly discovered that what really kept him running on the football field was not his love for the sport, but his sister who would sit under the shade of a tree all afternoon just waiting for his sister. And the reason why he trains so hard is not because he works hard, he just wants his sister to play with him for a while.
At that time, Long Que was already the main force in the team and would not be bullied.
But in retrospect, it was the days when he was bullied that made him happier.
Because his sister will help him stand out.
Longque is often noticed because she has a very famous sister.
People always ask him if he is jealous of such an outstanding sister.
Longque is never jealous.
He just hoped that his sister would look back at him when she was far away.
My sister did exactly that.
Growth is actually a process of upgrading and defeating monsters along the way. However, some people are born with six divine equipment and all skills are fully equipped, and can go a long way in defeating monsters and demons. However, there are also people who start with a broken stick and do not know any skills. He was so clumsy that he couldn't even defeat a monster, so he could only cry on the spot.
But that's not the cruelest part of the game.
The really cruel thing about this game is that those who have gone far will not come back and walk the same path again, even if they have been with you through thick and thin.
They will have new companions, form a new team, and play new levels.
And you are like an NPC in a mission, you are lucky to be able to appear in memories.
But my sister is different.
No matter how far his sister goes, she will always come back to see him.
Not only will she help him slay demons, but she will also bring him new equipment, teach him the skills he just learned, tell him how to go next, and cheer him up.
Now that my sister is gone, everything is bad.
But Longque knows that they will not be separated forever.
As long as the disease is cured, they will meet again.
Before that, he just had to be patient and wait.
Make yourself a better person, and maybe you can protect your sister in the future.
Longque returned to the school team and studied harder on weekdays. He tried to read the notes left by his sister and learn the knowledge she left little by little, hoping to get closer to her.
These things are difficult for him.
But he kept trying.
At that time, my parents often went to the United States to visit my sister.
Until the third year, my parents never went again.
When Longque tried to question her sister, they showed no concern.
It was as if all the feelings I had for my sister had disappeared.
She would never even mention her sister's existence on weekdays.
Longque felt that his world had collapsed. He questioned his parents like crazy, but never got any response. His sister seemed to have disappeared from the world, and no trace of her could be found anymore. Aurora Technology also disappeared without a trace, and there is no information on the Internet.
At that time, Long Que was only ten years old. He did not have any independent financial ability. He did not have a passport and could not apply for a visa. It was impossible for him to go to North America alone to find his sister.
When he was at his most desperate, he even thought about walking to the United States.
But that's impossible.
What kind of despair is that?
Long Que didn't know that when he was walking on the bustling street after school one day, with neon lights flashing on the street and high-rise buildings peeking into the depths of the clouds, he suddenly felt cold.
This world is not as beautiful as he expected. The future that was once within reach has been shattered. The road ahead is dim and difficult to move. He is in the mud and cannot move forward. No matter how hard he struggles, he can only exhale the turbid air in his chest and continue to work. Do nothing.
Destiny is the most powerful magic in the world that can tear everyone apart.
He was so hateful and so angry.
How he wants to become omnipotent, so that he can break through the mud of life, cross the chasm of reality, come to his sister, and tell her that you have not been given up, you still have me.
But the fact is that he can only stay as a primary school student in the No. 2 Experimental Primary School in Sifang District. He wears the same school uniform every day and lines up with his classmates to do exercises.
This is what he should do at his age, but he doesn't like it.
He finally understood what his sister said back then.
When there is a fire in your heart.
When you really want to change something.
What you are doing now is meaningless.
You must, break free.
But Longque is not Longling.
The younger brother is not the older sister.
Long Que thought he would never be able to do it in his life.
Until one day, he received a text message on his phone.
No sender.
Just two simple words and a punctuation mark.
"Save me."
·
·
Longque didn't have any evidence, but he knew the text message was from his sister.
Something happened to my sister.
That text changed him completely, molding him into a different person.
If it weren't for that text message, he himself wouldn't have thought that he had such great potential. If it weren't for that text message, he wouldn't have known that only when he had something in his heart could he become omnipotent like the Monkey King and break through the cage.
He spent two years learning the knowledge left in his sister's notes.
This learning speed is much slower than that of his sister.
But it has far surpassed his peers.
He finished high school courses at the age of twelve and successfully entered Stanford University in San Francisco, USA. This was the route he planned in advance, in order to get closer to the mysteriously disappeared Aurora Technology and the so-called gene optimization project.
In four years of college, he was admitted to the computer department, was appreciated by the dean of the department, participated in many clubs, and expanded his network of contacts, but he still couldn't find any traces of Aurora Technology, and there was no news about the gene optimization project.
But he was not without gain.
Because he did find some clues.
Although Aurora Technology disappeared, he found many suspected traces of their activities, investigations on extraterrestrial civilizations, and even rumors about God.
He also found many cancer patients and visited them secretly.
Long Que exercised day after day and mastered a variety of fighting skills. He used his scholarship to buy guns through legal channels and practiced shooting at the shooting range.
He made himself an agent and secretly infiltrated many companies.
The closer he got to the upper class, the closer he found himself to Aurora.
Behind the upper class.
The controller behind the world.
There was a hint of conspiracy.
Until one day, he heard about the technology of neural simulation.
A game called "Pure Land" is about to be released.
Long Que didn't believe that a game could have such a great influence that more than a hundred countries around the world would promote it, even if it could create the so-called second world through neural simulation.
Because in the intelligence he got through special channels, he smelled the smell of disaster.
Therefore, he stole a virtual helmet in advance through his own means, and after a day and a night of research, he extracted a kind of insect that had never been seen before from it.
That kind of insect seemed to have the ability to stop time.
That afternoon, a piece of news caught his attention.
Aurora Technology, which had disappeared for many years, reappeared in the public eye.
But Longque did not expect that Aurora Technology would play so big this time, screening people all over the world in the form of a game, so that they could gain extraordinary abilities.
When they woke up from the cocoon again, the earth had entered the doomsday era.
Longque also gained extraordinary abilities after waking up, and as a person who knew all the causes and effects, he keenly realized that all this should be related to the fact that his sister was taken away that year.
He was sure that his sister was still alive in this world.
Everything he had investigated so far was confirmed.
Then next, he would go to the Arctic.
Go to the depths of Siberia.
Go to the place where his parents encountered aliens that year.
Find out the truth of all this.
The doomsday world is very suitable for him, because he has killed the weak little boy back then, and made himself strong in an almost cruel way. He became a lone walker in the ruins, shuttling through broken cities, witnessing many joys and sorrows.
There were several times when he almost died himself.
It was a long and lonely journey.
To break through the cage of fate, you need not only the determination to break through everything, but also the endurance of loneliness that ordinary people cannot bear. Sometimes when you come to your senses, your increasingly numb heart is so painful that when you look in the mirror again, you will feel that the person reflected in the mirror is a little strange.
He is still deeply trapped in the quagmire.
Even though he was about to drown many times, he never gave up struggling.
Until one day, Long Que met a man.
The man's name was Lu Buer.
