Bionic Era

Chapter 52: life and death

Views:

Lu Wen remained silent.

Jiang Xiaonian is smiling, maybe he is ill.

"Do you know Whitman?"

"He wrote this in "Leaves of Grass": Those who shiver from the cold can best appreciate the warmth of the sun; those who have experienced the troubles of life best understand the preciousness of life." He recited with a smile, like an elegant man poet.

Human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same.

Human troubles vary widely.

"Some people are worried about wealth and power, some are worried about fame and fortune, and some people are worried about..." Jiang Xiaonian suddenly raised his head and looked into Lu Wen's eyes, "life and death."

Lu Wen's expression remained unchanged and his eyes did not dodge.

Look at Jiang Xiaonian quietly.

He felt that Jiang Xiaonian might have an acting personality, and it would be a pity not to become an actor.

"I got the answer I wanted." Jiang Xiaonian looked away.

He leaned forward slightly, and the two silver-white bracelets were in close contact with the table.

Ding dong sound.

"Now let me answer your question."

Jiang Xiaonian was the only voice in the small room.

From the beginning to now, Lu Wen has never spoken.

Jiang Xiaonian leaned sideways, stretched out his right hand and put it on his ear, as if he was ready to listen carefully, but before Lu Wen could speak, he suddenly said "oh" again, and leaned back as if he suddenly realized something.

"Great first question!"

He clapped, seeming to affirm Lu Wen.

The silver bracelet on his hand swayed.

"The body I gave you, or your clone, is completely normal. Don't worry about any backdoors I left. Some things still have to be principled."

On a country road in District 6.

Two off-road vehicles drove quickly through the muddy village roads, heading towards the uninhabited land in the distance.

Lu Wen drove the first car, and some of the more popular music was played on a loop in the car.

"Old driver, brother!" the young man in the co-pilot shouted excitedly. He never stopped holding the phone in his hand, sometimes taking selfies and sometimes recording the situation in the car.

The young man is an anchor named Chen Qing.

This time I’m going to live broadcast outside the no-man’s land.

Lu Wen replaced the driver who had eaten too much in the hotel last night.

At first, he was worried that the body of this mass laborer would be recognized. After all, the laborers in the factory all had the same face as him, so he dressed up specially.

But now I find that my worries were unnecessary.

These young people are focused on this trip to no man's land.

"In my previous life, I always wondered why Superman was so famous, so no one could recognize him after wearing glasses."

Lu Wen suddenly understood something now.

Maybe this is called face blindness.

"Brother, slow down. The car behind is for the photography team. Their makeup artist is motion sick and about to vomit..."

Lu Wen slowed down a bit.

Chen Qing turned around and started discussing the plot of this live broadcast with two young people in the back row.

"Have you brought all the props?"

"Bring them all with you!"

"When the time comes, you two put on the electronic bracelets and ask the makeup artist to make it more realistic."

Several people talked loudly about the plot.

Chen Qing gave Lu Wen a sum of money, and Lu Wen said that he was not interested in live broadcasting and would not say anything.

"Hey, we are live broadcasting in no man's land and are attacked by awakened androids... We will definitely be popular this time!"

More than eighty years ago.

That war has not yet come.

Young anchors like to explore abandoned houses in the wilderness, hire people to pretend to be scary creatures, and create a scary atmosphere to attract attention and increase the number of views.

Now more than eighty years later.

Wastelands can be seen everywhere, and outside the nine major cities, everything is desolate.

Countless awakened androids have fled to these abandoned cities.

So the live broadcast has new tricks.

Anchors found that when everything was broadcast live in no-man's land, videos of being attacked by androids had particularly high views, likes and reposts.

So gradually there was a script.

"The feeling of two bodies connecting is quite amazing."

After disconnection, the two bodies are independent entities.

After establishing the connection, Lu Wen can see what the two bodies are experiencing at the same time.

He has been thinking about what state he will be in after he is reborn.

"Did I regenerate a string of data?"

At first, the body had been scrapped and was probably filled in a sinkhole.

It can be seen that rebirth has nothing to do with the android body.

"The body in District 13 that is communicating with Jiang Xiaonian, the memory chip, learning chip, and emotion chip all use the original body."

"The original functional chip has been replaced."

"The body that is driving in District 6, depending on Jiang Xiaonian's intention, has also replaced the original functional chip with an original functional chip worth more than two million yuan. The other three chips use the original data."

so.

The secret of my own rebirth lies in the data of these three chips

District 13.

Jiang Xiaonian was very proud and started a new round of performances.

"You thought you had already won, right? But I still made a copy of your data without you noticing."

"Victory is not so easy to obtain."

"I can tell you that this cage won't hold me for long. One day I will get out and we will meet again."

Except for the advantage of being smart, this person has all other disadvantages!

Proud, arrogant, unscrupulous, failed expression management...

Lu Wen thought.

After you get out, tell the person in charge here.

Jiang Xiaonian should be given some special treatment.

"Now let me answer your second question, Number Zero."

Jiang Xiaonian paused and snapped his fingers.

There was no need for Lu Wen to ask, he knew exactly what Lu Wen wanted to ask.

"Although I've only had contact with him a few times."

"But I can tell you for sure that Zero is a human being, not an android, and... he shouldn't live too long."

Xia Chuluo also said that there were rumors of Zero Zero decades ago.

In this era, the life span of normal people is actually only that long, and the rich can live a few more years by relying on drugs.

Many people will choose to freeze their bodies and wait for the day when the technology is mature.

"In the past few decades, he has researched and disassembled countless androids. Those dismantled androids all have a common characteristic, that is... they are too human-like."

Jiang Xiaonian smiled lightly, looking a little contemptuous.

"But he's a waste, you know? Nothing has been researched for decades."

"He wanted to use a mechanical body to carry human souls and achieve eternal life, but he got nothing. As for why he targeted you... I think you know it."

"And he is very timid and can only be sneaky." Jiang Xiaonian sneered. Maybe he was taken advantage of by No. 0 once, so he felt very uncomfortable and his words were sharp.

"In the past few decades, he only dared to secretly study those androids, and occasionally caused a few human disappearances. All those who came out to act were the androids he controlled."

Lu Wen was speechless.

Do we have to show up in person to face off? If Jiang Xiaonian hadn't appeared in person, he wouldn't be sitting here now.

"But recently, Zero has become impatient..."
