"Old guy, is this necessary?" Yang Yi asked after Lin Feng left.
"What does your kid know?"
"you… "
Yang Yi just spoke, but before he could react, Yang Chengzhi grabbed his wrist.
"Old guy, what are you doing?"
"Not bad, not bad, not bad!" With a smile, Yang Chengzhi let go.
"What's good?"
"Why, pretend to me?" Yang Chengzhi looked at Yang Yi and said with a smile, "Now, believe the story I told you?"
Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, and his brows were immediately locked together.
"If you want to know more, just follow me."
Seeing Yang Chengzhi getting up, Yang Yi hesitated first, then got up and followed.
Not long after, the two came to the basement.
"Old guy, why are you taking me here?"
"Stop talking nonsense."
Yang Chengzhi walked to the corner and fiddled with the walls, and the floor in the center of the basement moved to the sides, revealing an invisible underground passage.
Yang Yi was very surprised, because he had lived here for eighteen years and never knew the existence of this tunnel.
"I know, you kid can't hide things in your heart. Since you brought her to see me, you must tell her what you should and should not say." Yang Chengzhi walked over and looked up and down Yang Yi. Then he said, "I'll just say it, but I have to keep my mouth shut in the future."
"old man… "
"Let's go."
Yang Chengzhi took the lead into the tunnel, Yang Yi was full of suspicions, but he was also very curious, and followed into the tunnel.
After tens of meters, the two came to a spiral corridor. After another hundred meters, there was a little light in front of him. Although he couldn't see his fingers in the tunnel, Yang Yi was a soldier and could see clearly. What surprised Yang Yi was that Grandpa could also see clearly.
The light comes from an oil lamp, which is a naturally formed cave.
The cave is very large, and some household items are arranged in a mess. There is a stone table and two stone benches on the open space in the middle, and the oil lamp is placed on the stone table.
"This… "
"Yang Yi, you have grown up, and you have found the'Hope', and you have accepted the transformation. These things should be let you know."
Yang Chengzhi's tone suddenly became serious, which made Yang Yi not very used to it.
"sit down."
Yang Chengzhi sat down first, and Yang Yi walked over and reached the stone bench opposite.
"I know, you have a lot of questions in your heart. What you have seen, heard, and experienced in the past six months may have subverted your worldview."
Yang Yi didn't say a word, but Yang Chengzhi was right.
"Now, let's start from the beginning."
Yang Chengzhi raised his hand. When Yang Yi noticed the abnormality, a ray of light shot from Yang Chengzhi's fingertips and pierced Yang Yi's forehead.
"grandfather… "
"Don't resist, go to sleep with peace of mind."
Yang Yi's eyes widened, and a strong sense of exhaustion burst into his mind. Although Yang Yi didn't want to close his eyes, he quickly gave up resistance.
It was an irresistible force, but it didn't have any malice.
After waking up suddenly, Yang Yi was surprised to find that he was standing behind a huge floor-to-ceiling window. Outside the window was a strangely shaped spaceship, and Yang Chengzhi was standing behind him. Afterwards, Yang Yi was very calm and realized that he turned out to be a five-year-old child!
Behind him, Yang Chengzhi is not the same appearance that Yang Yi is familiar with, but looks younger.
"Report to the tower, the Discovery is ready to launch at any time."
"The tower receives it, starts the launch procedure, and the 60-second countdown begins. Fifty-nine, fifty-eight..."
As the countdown ended, the spacecraft outside the window ignited. The place where Yang Yi is located is the tower, behind him is the command and control area.
"The main engine ignites and starts to accelerate."
"Every system is normal, and the space curvature propulsion device is activated."
"The space curvature propulsion device ignites, and the propulsion power is 10%."
"Report the tower, the propulsion power has reached 80%."
"'Discovery', a smooth journey."
…
The spacecraft has gone away and has become extremely blurred. After a ray of light flashed, it disappeared from Yang Yi's vision. Yang Yi also saw that the spacecraft did not make a space jump, but used a more direct method, that is, speeding up by distorting space. The spacecraft did not disappear, but reached the speed of light.
A spaceship flying at the speed of light!
However, Yang Yi knew that it was not the "Hope", but a spacecraft larger than the "Hope". In addition, there were two people on the spacecraft, a man and a woman.
At this moment, a dazzling light flashed.
When the light disappeared, Yang Yi found himself in the vast sea of stars, full of stars in all directions, and Yang Chengzhi stood in front of him.
"grandfather… "
"This is the most memorable thing before you were five years old. To be precise, you were only three years old."
Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, looked at Yang Chengzhi in disbelief, and realized that this was his illusion, or it was in his consciousness space.
"Think about it carefully, do you have any memories of things before the age of five?"
"This… "
"Yes, but it's all obscured. It's very simple. I have imprisoned your memories, because these memories will only cause you great pain."
"Why... This is..."
"It was your biological parents who left on that spacecraft. The Discovery is the second spacecraft I designed and built that can fly at the speed of light, and it is also the first manned spacecraft. Although it is not the only option, but for Going to the future, your parents volunteered to be the first astronauts to travel at the speed of light." Yang Chengzhi exclaimed, and said, "They are also my son and my daughter-in-law."
"grandfather… "
"If it weren't for this incident, we wouldn't be here." Yang Chengzhi smiled lightly and said, "Theoretically, when a spacecraft is flying at the speed of light, the internal time will stop, so a spacecraft flying at the speed of light can travel to the future. . But shortly thereafter, I found a problem."
"what is the problem?"
"Flight at the speed of light can stop time, but after slowing down, time will not return to normal."
Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Yang Chengzhi without understanding.
"Simply put, even if the control equipment on the Discovery is operating normally and decelerates in reverse acceleration after reaching the destination, the time inside the Discovery will not return to normal. As a result, The astronauts who traveled in space on the Discovery were unable to wake up from their deep sleep, and would be unconscious even after reaching their destination. Although they are still alive, they are no different from death.
"This… "
"It is this discovery that made me realize that removing space constraints by increasing the speed simply does not work. It's just that I don't care about these, but them."
"and then?"
"In the next two years, I ran out of my savings, found a way to restore time to normal, and built a third spacecraft that could fly at the speed of light."
Yang Yimeng was startled and said, "You take me and take this spacecraft for space travel?"
"Yes."
"But… "
"Although I am your grandfather, every child has parents. Don't ask me why, don't blame them, blame me if you blame it."
Yang Yi was dumbfounded and suddenly thought of something.
"It seems that you have already thought of it."
"You... You are..."
"Yes, I am Yang Feng, the protagonist in that story, the ancestor of the Yang family."
"No, it's impossible. You are Yang Feng, then I..."
"You are my grandson, Yang Yi."
Yang Yi patted his head vigorously, trying to wake himself up, because he thought it was a dream. If so, he is from 10,000 years ago.
is it possible!
"I can go to the future, but I cannot predict the future. After I came to this world, I discovered that reality is more cruel than I imagined."
"So you imprisoned my memories before the age of five?"
Yang Chengzhi, or Yang Feng, nodded and said: "Although it is very unfair to you, but in order to allow you to survive in this strange world, in order to allow you to see the long-lost Parents, I have no choice. As I said at the beginning, blame me if you want to."
"So, why tell me?"
"Because you found the'Hope', there is hope in the future."
"what?"
Yang Feng exhaled and said: "The'Hope' is the first spacecraft I built that can fly at the speed of light, and it is also the only unmanned spacecraft. More importantly, the'Hope' carries changes. The discovery of the entire human civilization and even the change of the Milky Way. Although 10,000 years have passed, the probability of finding the "Hope" is almost zero, but your discovery on the lava star has changed everything."
"This... what the hell is going on?" Yang Yi was confused, or at a loss.
"It's a long story."
"Don't tell me, this is a dream."
Yang Feng smiled miserably and said, "This is not a dream, but an exchange of consciousness. It looks like a dream."
At this time, it was no longer possible to describe Yang Yi's mood with words.
"If you want to know what's going on, answer my question first. Do you believe in history?"
Hearing this, Yang Yimeng was shocked, because Zhan Ruilin asked the same question not long ago, and the subsequent story completely changed Yang Yi's worldview.
Immediately, Yang Yi thought that Zhan Ruilin had told him that he had a relationship with his grandfather, Yang Feng.
Could it be that Zhan Ruilin was also affected by Yang Feng
If all this is true, the grandfather who accompanied Yang Yi for 18 years turned out to be Yang Feng, the ancestor of the Yang family, and he was an orphan from 10,000 years ago, then the history of human civilization must be different from what Yang Yi understands. , And there must be very important reasons why Yang Feng came to this era.
The more he thinks, the more confused Yang Yi's thinking becomes.
For the time being, I don't want to say whether I believe all of this, but Yang Yi feels incomprehensible and completely incomprehensible, as if he is having a nightmare.
