The suspension car stopped near a residential area full of tall buildings, and Nangong and his wife brought everyone to the place where they lived temporarily. They let people into the living room, Elsa went to send the food brought out from the mall today into the kitchen, and Nangong Wudi sat on the big sofa with the guests, preparing to answer a series of questions.
Hao Ren looked at the furnishings around him. It was obvious that the aborigines of this planet used to be creatures that were highly similar to people on Earth, and their civilization was also somewhat similar to that of Earth. Although the furnishings in the room were strange, most of them were Can guess the use or usage. The house is tidy and tidy, and all kinds of supplies are neatly placed at hand. It can be seen that the people who live here have managed it into a stable and comfortable small home. The residence where couples in distress have spent a hundred years together is surprisingly good.
"Most of them were cleaned by Elsa. There are so many weird things here, thanks to my wife's talent and intelligence, otherwise I really don't know what to do," Nangong Wudi noticed that the eyes of the guests were sweeping around, with a smile on his face , "When we first came here, we were very busy for a while. Thinking about the things at that time still makes people laugh."
Hao Ren noticed that Nangong Wudi's way of speaking was somewhat strange, and after thinking for a while, he realized that it had the usual tone of a traditional Chinese gentry more than a hundred years ago—this person in front of him has been away from the earth for a hundred years. He still maintains the way he used to speak. This situation can also be seen on the aliens who stay in the sanctuary all the year round on the earth. When he was in the sanctuary in Athens, he encountered many old vampires and werewolves who spoke and behaved like the middle ages.
Nangong Sanba asked impatiently: "Dad, how did you and Mom get here? Then how did you find this shelter?"
Nangong Wudi laughed: "I really don't know exactly how I got here, I just remember being covered by a ball of light from the angry spirit, which made people dizzy, and when I woke up, it was dark and dark. The boundary of the ice and snow... oh, it is the ground. Your mother and I struggled to survive in the ice and snow, but it was really hard to live on the snow, and your mother had to use water mist to keep me alive, so we ventured out of the snow—about ten minutes away. A few days. There is still no end to the snow, but there is a sudden tremor, as if the sky is falling and the earth is sinking. After another day or two, we saw a sudden light shining on the nearby steel mountain …”
When Nangong Wudi said this, Hao Ren suddenly interrupted: "Wait a minute, you mean. When you first arrived in this world, those engines... that is, those light beams hadn't appeared yet, but it took a while for them to light up after you arrived here. got up?"
Nangong Wudi nodded: "Yes. Later, our husband and wife walked towards the place with light, and quickly found a city like cast steel and various things with exquisite mechanisms, and then a mechanism person brought us to this place."
Hao Ren and Vivienne looked at each other: "...As I guessed, this planetary ark has been staying in our own solar system before this, and it was something activated by the Nangong couple after they came to this planet. of the planet."
"It's not necessarily activated by them. But the time seems to be right," Vivienne rubbed her chin and looked up at Nangong Wudi. "After the beam of light is on, are there frequent earthquakes here? And sometimes you feel weightless... Uh , top-heavy, or walking always crooked?"
Nangong Wudi nodded and recounted what happened in the past in his memory. Everyone found that it basically corresponded to the phenomenon of planetary time. Although the aborigines on this planet have created such an incredible thing as the "Planet Ark", their level of certain technologies is not high. For example, they don't know how to make anti-gravity equipment and deal with the inertial problems when the aircraft accelerates, but can only rely on long acceleration and deceleration or various shock absorption devices to resist.
Nangong Wudi's memories completely confirmed Hao Ren's guess about the planet's time.
"Dad, you are here..." Nangong Wuyue's eye circles were still a little red, and she couldn't help crying when she spoke, "You didn't suffer, did you?"
"I couldn't figure it out at first, but of course it's more difficult," Nangong Wudi smiled broadly, appearing calm and reliable, "but I got used to it soon. Everything here is convenient, and all kinds of things are also convenient. To be honest, using After getting used to it, it is better than those stupid things in my hometown. There is no shortage of food and clothing, but it is just... a little lonely."
When the uncle said this, he tried to use a light tone as much as possible, but everyone could guess that he and Elsa must have encountered more than a little difficulty when they first came to this world. They have no one to guide them, they are nervous and frightened, and they don't even understand the text here. This advanced world that seems to be fully automatic may be a place where demons danced wildly for people a hundred years ago. Nangong Wuyue's mother should be the fastest to adapt here—she is a sea monster after all, and Nasathorn, the city of sea monsters, is itself an advanced immigrant starship. She is no stranger to the automatic facilities here, at least for this The world of this "style" will not be unfamiliar.
But the biggest difficulty is Nangong Wudi's last sentence: I'm a little lonely.
"Have you seen anyone else here?" Lily asked, hugging her knees.
"No," Nangong Wudi said solemnly, "I know what you want to ask—my wife and I have traveled all over the city, and there is no one else here except our husband and wife. But I often see those on the screen Some people appear, and the things in the store are often replaced with new ones."
"What about outside the city?" Yi'zaks propped up the coffee table with one hand, leaning his upper body forward, "Have you ever been to other cities?"
Nangong Wudi's answer was beyond everyone's expectations: "If you can't get out, you can't go out after you get in. And to be honest, we don't know how to go to other cities, or even if there are other cities."
"Can't you get out?" Several people looked at each other, and Vivian was the first to speak out, "Why can't I get out? Someone is blocking me or what?"
Nangong Wudi spread his hands: "The way out of the city is blocked. It is the Tongtian Tower that you walked down when you came down. Didn't you go back and take a look? It should not be opened again. And the outermost part of the city is full of stones and steel , The whole city is tightly packed, there are a few places that look like city gates, but the gates are closed."
Hao Ren frowned: "Didn't you try to break through?"
"I forced my way through, but I was blocked by the authorities," Nangong Wudi grinned, "After that, Elsa and I never forced our way through the city gate again. After all, this place is extremely weird, and the ice and snow outside is extremely cold. It is very difficult to survive, but at least we can live well in this city. To be on the safe side, we will live here well."
Hao Ren's face suddenly became serious.
The city is locked down, and the elevators and the security robots on the outskirts of the city are systematically enforcing the blockade—that is, people in the city are forbidden to leave. He thought of the middle-aged man who appeared on the big screen, as well as the time-sensitive news recently produced by someone. These clues point to a group of mysterious guys hiding behind the scenes, who may be the real owner of this planet. But why would they do it
A lot of thoughts flashed through his mind in a mess, and Hao Ren suddenly felt that this empty "ghost town" was probably a laboratory under observation, and the real aborigines and shelters were probably in other places. In this way, many things that are wrong can be explained clearly.
But what is the point of doing so
Hao Ren called the spaceship that was on standby in orbit, and the voice of the data terminal soon rang in his mind: "Boss, what did you find?"
"Parent Nangong has been found," Hao Ren first reported the good news, "but that's not the point. Now you increase the power of the radar, scan the depths of this planet for signs of life, and look for facilities like large shelters , I suspect that the survivors of this planet are hiding deeper underground, and there is something wrong with their behavior."
"Okay, is there anything else you can order?"
"Be careful, and try not to cause conflicts," Hao Ren has not forgotten his work rules, "If it is not necessary, do not use force against foreign civilizations."
The various actions of the censor should be kept at the "civilian" level as much as possible. Although the Xiling Empire's definition of the word "civilian" seems a bit subtle, it is definitely not acceptable to rashly start wars against other civilizations, especially this planet itself is a With observation samples full of civilization achievements, it is even more impossible to let the Juguiyantai solve all its worries with one shot.
