generation!
It’s the first generation!
This was the second sentence Kun told Tang Ling. Tang Ling was clearly confused, but after hearing this word, a trace of sadness came from the depths of his soul. But after it was born, it grew rapidly and was still there. In the short time it takes for people to react, they are already wandering among the limbs and bones. People can't help but want to cry, just because they miss an unknown antiquity and magnificence, but it can no longer be traced.
"So, the first generation was another human civilization?" Tang Ling looked at Kun, not asking, but muttering to himself.
Kun didn't say anything, but walked out of the counter, took Tang Ling's arm, and walked towards the dark depths of the mysterious store.
I had no idea of time, and I didn't know how long I had been walking. It seemed like this mysterious store was endless.
But it felt like it was just a small moment before I stepped out of the mysterious store and came to the void of the universe.
**
I can't describe what it feels like to stand here
Tang Ling's eyes clearly told him that he still existed, standing side by side with Kun.
But Tang Ling's feeling told him that everything ceased to exist and he became an invisible consciousness.
That's why he can use such a magical perspective to watch thousands of planets seem to revolve around him, and large nebulae are slowly floating like a lake not far away.
With such a magical perspective, Tang Ling couldn't explain why it was like this? But what's important? This kind of splendor is more magnificent than entering the world of laws, and it is more magnificent than seeing the universe from any angle. As long as you experience this once, you will feel like you will die without regrets.
"It's just." Almost involuntarily, Tang Ling frowned. Such magnificence was indeed shocking and exciting, but there was always something wrong in it. What was wrong? Tang Ling muttered to himself, but didn't find the problem for a while.
"It's just too lonely, isn't it?" Kun seemed to understand Tang Ling's doubts, and Kun took over Tang Ling's words naturally.
After saying this, Tang Ling felt Kun pulling him forward again. The speed could not be said to be fast or slow. Tang Ling just felt countless rotating and various planets passing by his eyes, accompanied by It was Kun's voice.
"Of course it is lonely. This is the original universe. Of course, don't use human concepts of time to measure the universe. The beginning here is also unimaginably long for humans."
"At this time, the universe had not yet produced life, so it was too lonely."
After saying these two sentences, Kun stopped, and Tang Ling, who was still confused when being pulled by Kun, also stopped automatically.
At this time, they were still standing in the void, but countless planets gradually faded away, leaving only this blue, huge, and very beautiful planet in front of them, which seemed to be the only protagonist.
The moment he saw the planet, Tang Ling felt an unprecedented urge to cry.
This impulse even made Tang Ling want to run towards it, get close to it, and embrace it. Tang Ling was certain that only by being surrounded by it would he not feel fearful and uneasy in the vast universe, and would he not be alone.
It is like mother, but it is far more worthy of awe than mother. What kind of planet is it
Could it be that it is the planet he is on? No, no no! Absolutely not! Tang Ling had widely read many books about pre-civilizations, and from those books he had seen the universe known by pre-civilizations. Naturally, he had also seen the whole picture of his own planet.
Compared to the entire universe, which has more stars than gravel, the planet I'm on is too small. Even if I use gravel to describe it, I feel like I'm really exalting it.
Now standing in the void, although the countless stars around him have faded away and are all far away, Tang Ling, who has spiritual eyes, can still draw comparative data. The planet in front of him is very huge, far larger than the planet he is on.
So Tang Ling was very confused, what was the purpose of the impulse and emotion in his heart
By this time, Kun seemed to be unaware of Tang Ling's thoughts. He had no intention of explaining. Instead, he looked at the planet and began to tell a story about the past.
"The planet you see is called the Source Star. This is the name given to it by the intelligent life that was born on this planet."
"The meaning is very simple, but it also contains all the emotions - because it is the root, the source, the source of life."
Tang Ling looked at the Source Star in front of him and felt that he could completely understand such emotions, because at this moment, even if he couldn't see his appearance, he could still feel his eyes burning, and the eyes looking at it must be full of nostalgia. of affection.
Although, I am confused. But doubts couldn't stop the surging emotions in his heart.
As a narrator, Kun had no emotions. Although he should have noticed Tang Ling's excitement, he still spoke unhurriedly.
"As I said just now, intelligent life was born on the Source Star."
"Although it is unknown where the first life form in the universe was born? What form it existed in? However, the intelligent life forms born on the Source Star were the earliest ones."
"Yes, just like life forms. Which planet was the first intelligent life to be born on is also something that cannot be tested. There are many debates about this in the history of the universe. But later, such things seemed to have no meaning. Big. So all intelligent life chooses to use a unified method. As long as it is born within a certain period of time, it is called the first generation."
Hearing this, Tang Ling was slightly confused: "Is this why you are called the first generation?"
Kun shook his head and waved his hand, and a life form that was not much different from humans in appearance appeared in front of Tang Ling.
Tang Ling looked at the life form that Kun had drawn with curiosity. For the first time, he did not have any rejection of life outside the planet, but was filled with a certain sense of intimacy.
Yes, he is so similar to humans. He even has black hair and eyes. The only difference is that they are obviously taller than humans, and they have mysterious yet beautiful eyes on both sides of their necks. Finally, there were two small horns at the top of the head. In fact, Tang Ling didn't find these horns to be out of place. Even some people's skulls had these two positions slightly protruding. Was this the so-called horned head
Tang Ling didn't know if there was any connection between them? I just thought it was quite interesting.
Kun looked at the image of intelligent life in front of him, his eyes flashed with absolute respect and deep emotion, and then said to Tang Ling: "It is not impossible for you to understand the first generation in this way. But what I just said was only the first generation in a broad sense, and The meaning of the first generation I mentioned before is not the same as what you said before.”
"What's the difference?" Tang Ling asked directly.
"The difference is very simple, but the story is very long." When Kun said this, he sighed slightly, and then waved his hand. The planet in front of Tang Ling that excited Tang Ling gradually became smaller and merged into the universe. Then the entire universe also turned into A floor plan.
But Kun did not dissipate the image of that intelligent life, and still let him stand where he was.
Not knowing what kind of emotion it was out of, Kun walked around the three-dimensional virtual image twice, and finally came to Tang Ling. With another wave of his hand, a table and chairs appeared between the two of them.
As soon as the table and chairs appeared, there was a bottle of wine and several plates of side dishes on the table.
Kun sat directly on one of the chairs and poured himself a glass of wine: "Usually when I talk about sad things, I will find something small and pleasant to balance it out."
"Hmm." Tang Ling didn't know how to answer the question for a moment.
Kun smiled faintly and looked at Tang Ling: "I have wine and I have stories. Come and sit down, drink and listen. This is the benefit you have chosen to be a responsible person, and it is also the past that you must listen to. Of course, it is not pleasant. ”
"Okay." Tang Ling sat down in front of Kun directly, and Kun poured another glass of wine and pushed it in front of Tang Ling.
Tang Ling picked up the wine glass and Kun Ze drank it all in one gulp.
"The story begins with the life of the Source Star. Because they are the first generation, their history is very clear, from weak to strong, from ignorance to wisdom. Unlike human history, there are always some unclear details."
"Are these details important?" Tang Ling took a sip of the slightly cold wine in the glass, and then asked, what did he think of
"It's very important, but we won't talk about it now." Kun pointed at the floor plan in front of him, and the floor plan began to change.
The source star magnified again and appeared on the plan.
"This is a great planet that can breed intelligent life. It is special and mysterious in itself."
"No matter how advanced the civilization is, it cannot completely explain where wisdom and self-awareness come from and how they are born. But after that, there is a theory that is popular in the universe - that is, these may be related to the planet itself. But to verify it, we must go back to the birth of the universe and the unknown beyond the universe.”
"So this statement cannot be verified. Just like if you can't go out of a certain range, you won't understand what will happen outside the range? Just like the first generation can't break out of the universe, it won't know more things outside the universe."
Kun clinked glasses with Tang Ling and drank them all at the same time.
"Then what?" Tang Ling asked after putting down his wine glass.
"Then? Well, maybe it was given by the planet itself. In short, after the first generation gained intelligence, everything went smoothly. Because they were the first batch of intelligent life, the environment at that time was extremely friendly. So..." Kun pointed at the place in front of him again. floor plan.
Then, a magnificent historical picture unfolded in front of Tang Ling. Compared with the bloody and cruel historical fragments of the Yu clan, this historical picture belonging to the first generation of Yuanxing is so touching. It is like an ode to the development of life, full of hopeful energy and refreshing progress, which makes people fascinated and excited. Admire.
"Very brilliant, isn't it?" Kun squinted his eyes, seemingly filled with infinite emotion.
Tang Ling couldn't help but nod.
He watched them go from primitive to technological explosion, watched them build the entire planet from wilderness to city, and watched them suddenly realize their true nature, restore the planet to nature, learn the most natural way of survival, and then go out of the planet to build civilizations one after another. of branches.
Although this kind of expansion is domineering, it is gentle, and it takes some things, but it must also protect and give back.
They began to reach the extreme of science, and discovered that the extreme of science has an end. What has no end is life itself, so their eyes began to shift and they began to pursue another stage of cosmic civilization.
The exciting music of life keeps playing, and I feel that if we continue like this, one day we will reach the end of the universe and move towards infinity.
Seeing this, Kun paused the picture.
"Is it powerful?" Kun asked.
"The feeling is unshakable, but" Tang Ling was shocked by this song of life, and he didn't want to make any bad guesses.
"You want to say that such expansion will always lead to war, right?" Kun helped Tang Ling express his doubts.
Tang Ling nodded.
"No, the first generation was lucky. The universe is so big and there are so few intelligent life forms, so it is not that easy to fight." Kun seemed a little sad.
He looked at Tang Ling and saw a sieve and a very ordinary piece of soil in his hand.
