Chapter 255: On the Balcony
At the gate of Longshan Camp, the guard robot opened the gate, and the super sports car drove into the asphalt road in the camp.
After parking in the open space in front of the big house, Zhang Xiaowen opened the car door and got out of the car. She hugged Xiaojing who rushed over to hug her, and kissed her several times before letting go. The Rubik's Cube did not transform, and just quietly watched the people in the camp. Some cried because of the sacrifice of relatives and friends, and some women cried excitedly when they saw their husbands returning safely after the end of the world. The wounded were respected and carefully cared for.
Xiaojing climbed into the sports car and sat down, looking left and right, and whispered to the Rubik's Cube...
After dealing with all the people who came to say hello, Zhang Xiaowen walked to the Rubik's Cube.
"Where to stay tonight, here or in the factory in the city center? I haven't been with Xiaojing for many days, so stay and accompany Xiaojing."
"Well, okay, tomorrow... we'll go to H Province."
Zhang Xiaowen's eyes suddenly moistened when she heard about H Province, and she almost cried. She didn't expect that the Cube had been thinking about it all the time. That's right, how could it forget something recorded in the computer? Zhang Xiaowen, who was secretly happy, felt a pang of pain when she thought of whether her parents in H Province were still alive. Suddenly, she was a little afraid to go back...
"You have to go back and take a look anyway. You have to be mentally prepared." The Cube said nothing.
Raising her head, taking a deep breath to hold back her tears, Zhang Xiaowen nodded, picked up Xiaojing and hugged her tightly in her arms, refusing to let go. Xiaojing accompanied Zhang Xiaowen obediently.
The Cube started the engine and slowly drove to the downstairs of the former scientific research center and parked. Four big cats came over and rubbed the Cube. The Cube started the standby sleep mode...
…………
Late at night. Zhang Xiaowen pushed open the glass door of the second-floor balcony, put on a sweater and walked to the railing, lying on the railing and staring at the direction of H Province in the north.
The lights of the super sports car parked downstairs flashed for a moment, and then changed shape. After a few seconds, the Rubik's Cube stood up and walked to the balcony. The metal on his body flowed and gathered like water and slowly changed shape. It didn't take long for him to become an ordinary man with a firm face. He stretched out his hand to grab the wall and climbed up to the second-floor balcony.
"If you sneak into a girl's room like this, others will think you are a hooligan." Zhang Xiaowen said to the Rubik's Cube with a smile.
The Rubik's Cube pouted, walked into the room, took out a blanket and covered Zhang Xiaowen, and also learned from Zhang Xiaowen to lie on the railing and look into the distance. The stars in the distant sky were bright and shining, very beautiful.
"Can't sleep? You might be woken up if you sleep tomorrow. According to the drone observation, the road conditions are not very good. Remember to bring enough cosmetics and other toiletries, as well as food and some clothes for changing. There are no highway service areas or express hotels to provide accommodation after the end of the world." Zhang Xiaowen smiled, tightened the blanket, and stared at the Rubik's Cube with a smile, which made the Rubik's Cube Sparks feel creepy. "What are you doing..." "I didn't expect it~ It turns out that you, the Rubik's Cube, also know how to care about people. Hey~ Do you have a mechanical girlfriend~" "It's inexplicable..." "Just teasing you, you are so stingy, you don't even smile, it's so hard to adjust the atmosphere." Zhang Xiaowen pouted and put her chin on the railing. "Did you see the brightest star? The one at the top of the triangle. Yes, that's it. When I passed by that star when I came to Earth, I stopped to look at it. It's colorful. Yes, it's very beautiful. But the air above is very harmful to humans. Look, that's Jupiter. Jupiter is a huge nebula. It's very beautiful..."
Mofang pointed at the stars in the night sky and explained to Zhang Xiaowen. Being seduced by the magic cube, Zhang Xiaowen wanted to go over and take a look. Humans are still just wandering around the earth. If she goes to outer space, will she be the first person on earth?
On the balcony on the second floor of the villa under the night sky, two figures were pointing at the starry sky...
The picture was very warm. Zhang Xiaowen's mind was full of fantasy pictures of various strange stars. She imagined herself driving a spaceship to travel to various planets.
"Mofang, you said... If I die, where will my soul go? Is the underworld a certain star?"
"Two choices."
"Oh? Tell me which two choices you are." Zhang Xiaowen was aroused by curiosity.
"First, when brain cells die, neural thinking dies and dissipates along with them. Second, use some high-tech technology to transfer spiritual thinking. In fact, there is a third option, which is immortality." Rubik's Cube said seriously.
"Immortality? How is that possible?"
Zhang Xiaowen felt that Rubik's Cube was bragging. How could humans be immortal? If they were immortal, wouldn't they be gods?
"In theory, human cells will gradually become weak and die over time, so they have to cultivate the next generation to continue the existence of cells. In fact, when technology reaches a certain level, it will crack life and find ways to slowly change all the substances that make up the body. The Dragon Star people did not do this because no matter how developed their limited brains are, they cannot understand all the technology. But I did it. I found a method on Earth and implemented it."
"Implemented it? Who? Could it be... you said you were changing my... body!" Zhang Xiaowen shouted in surprise.
"That's right, but it's not over yet. It will take some time for your body to be immortal forever. Don't you find that you are getting more beautiful and younger?"
"…………"
Zhang Xiaowen was a little confused. Immortality... this word is simply a god to humans! Ever since humans have been able to think, they have been searching for a way to achieve immortality. Unfortunately, countless years have passed with nothing to show for it. Countless people have devoted everything they have, but they never thought that they might be immortal now...
If I really don't die, am I still a human?
Others are slowly getting older and dying, but I am still living in the world with a young look. If the time is short, I may find it interesting, but what about a thousand years, ten thousand years?
For a moment, Zhang Xiaowen didn't know whether to be happy that she is not dead or sad about the lonely life in the future...
Magic Cube! This guy did it!
Swish! Zhang Xiaowen turned her head and stared at the Magic Cube fiercely, and the Magic Cube Fire Seed was scared again. This look is very cruel!
"Magic Cube! Listen to me! From now on, I will ask you to support me! If you dare not support me! I will spread bad things about you all over the universe! Don't say that you ran away through a wormhole, even if you travel through time and space back to ancient times, I will chase you to ancient times and spread it all over the world!" Zhang Xiaowen grabbed the Magic Cube's collar and cursed fiercely.
Under the moonlight, two figures on the balcony seemed to hug each other...
With a creak, Xiaojing hugged the pillow and rubbed his eyes and walked to the balcony.
"Mom and Dad, can you guys kiss on the balcony at night while Xiaojing is asleep~"
"…………"
"…………"
Zhang Xiaowen loosened Mofang's collar, picked up Xiaojing and walked into the room. When she entered, she slammed the door shut and glared at Mofang.
"…………"
Mofang was puzzled, shook his head, and lay on the balcony to continue looking at the stars.
