After he went back to his room, he looked at today's news. It was nothing more than the impact of the collapsed network on the lives of the world. However, they have already started repair work and called on everyone to remain calm.The latter are some innocuous things, Yu Chen sneered in his heart, the collapse of NO.4 is almost catching up with the nuclear leak, they are invisible and intangible, but the damage is immeasurable.He had recompiled part of the data stored in Yang Jian's bracelet before, compressed the volume and stored it in his own hard drive. Besides, he only needed to bring his laptop and some change of clothes for this trip.

As for the home that I haven't returned to for a long time, it must have been dusted.Yu Chen thought, if he comes back, he doesn't care what the flood is, he just wants to get off the pirate ship quickly, the end of the world is the end of the world, he is not Captain America, save the woolen world.

He was lying on the bed, the jade pendant on his chest was warmed by his body temperature, he stretched out his hand and held it up in front of his eyes, the jade pendant refracted the moonlight very softly, Yu Chen took a deep breath, and said to himself: "Who are you? What? Why did they leave you to me? Why did they give birth to me...and don't want me?"

Regarding his own life experience, Yu Chen has too many things he can't figure out.Yang Jian and the others insisted that he was not human, but he didn't have any perception of it.How can it be not human?He has flesh and blood, emotions, pleasure and pain... How could he not be a human being?Yang Jian's words are not valid in Yu Chen's logic.

Anyway... Yu Chen put away the jade pendant and turned over, it had nothing to do with him anyway.

The morning sun shines through the invisible mana barrier into the mansion, and the five people are each doing their own final inventory to welcome the upcoming trip.

"I'll take this set away." Ao Lie rummaged through the closet and took out two pieces of clothing, "This set is also pretty... Ah, it's so troublesome to go out."

Sun Wukong smiled and said: "It's not about traveling, just take some enough to wear, let's talk about it."

"What?" Ao Lie asked, blinking his big eyes.

"Xiao Long'er's skin looks good, so naturally she looks good in anything she wears." Sun Wukong said.

Ao Lie narrowed his eyes, casually threw a set of clothes into the closet, and said, "That's right."

Luo Bai came to the mortal world alone, and said that he didn't need to prepare anything if he wanted to travel far, and waited in the hall early in the morning.Yang Jian has always been capable, and he is also a master who walks away when he says he wants to. When he saw Ao Lie and Monkey King coming out from the hall, there were still 5 minutes left before the scheduled departure time, but there was no sign of Yu Chen.

"Where's the dog leash?" Ao Lie asked, "Isn't it still sleeping late?"

"I don't know." Yang Jian got up and said, "I'm going to see him, you wait a moment." He went to Yu Chen's room first, it was clean and even the bed was made, obviously he had been away for a while, Yang Jian thought about it Thinking about it, he went to the studio where Yu Chen had been working.The screen was all on, and Yu Chen sat in the cold white light, looking very thin.

"It's time to go." Yang Jian knocked on the door symbolically, and then leaned against the door, "What are you busy with? Everyone is waiting for you."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yu Chen realized that Yang Jian was here, and hurriedly said, "I just remembered that I have to take away all the data analysis and programs I wrote on the computer, maybe I can use them on the road."

Yang Jian looked at the process on the screen that he still couldn't understand, walked slowly behind Yu Chen, and asked, "How long will it take?"

"It will be over soon." Yu Chen said, "You don't have to wait for me."

"It's ok."

Yu Chen was a little surprised by Yang Jian's calm words.There was the sound of machines running in the room, but neither of them spoke, which seemed awkward.Yu Chen cleared his throat and said, "Fortunately, I got out all the things that were in your bracelet before, or else it would be even more explosive now... Oh yes, your bracelet is broken, but you are fine Is it?"

Yang Jian said: "Fortunately, apart from being unable to control my own ability, the other effects are not great. I thought that if the thing broke, I would be close to death. After all, fish can't leave the water."

Yu Chen said: "That's quite strange. But since I met you, haven't I encountered any strange things? I don't think it's strange. Ah, are you basically like ordinary people now? I mean you don't There is a way to use your spell again."

"It's not the same. I know it still exists, not lost." Yang Jian said, "It's just that I can't use it, but no matter what, I'm still better than you, right?"

Yu Chen laughed at himself and said, "Everyone is better than me."

Yang Jian looked at Yu Chen, pressed his palm on the top of Yu Chen's head, and said in a low voice: "You have your excellence, and no one else can replace it."

"Oh." Yu Chen waved Yang Jian's hand away, "Don't keep pressing me down, I won't grow taller anymore."

Yang Jian said: "Why do I feel that you have been out of order since you came back after participating in that competition? Why, are you still angry with me?"

"Please, big brother." Yu Chen wanted to cry, "Aren't you good at reading minds? So don't speculate about my mental journey, okay? I'm just discussing the facts, okay? Besides, why am I angry with you? "

Yang Jian turned Yu Chen around, put one hand on his heart, approached his face and asked, "So you want me to say it?"

Such an extremely close distance made Yu Chen a little dazed, he couldn't stand Yang Jian's face, and he was afraid that Yang Jian would really shake off his thoughts, and he would become nervous for a moment.Fortunately, his copying process was completed at this moment, and a "ding" saved him.He pushed Yang Jian away, then took off the special storage disk Ao Lie gave him, and said, "Let's go, don't make them wait."

After the five people met in the lobby, no one asked what Yu Chen was doing, Ao Lie led everyone to his underground garage to pick up his so-called modified off-road vehicle.The whole body of the car was matte black, and it was larger than half of an off-road vehicle. Ao Lie opened the trunk and said, "Put your things here first."

Yu Chen glanced at it and said, "It doesn't look like anything special."

"You will know when you hit the road." Ao Lie said.

Yang Jian sat in the driver's seat, Sun Wukong sat in the co-pilot, and the other three sat in the back. Yu Chen wanted to step aside and do something, so Ao Lie was squeezed between him and Luo Bai.Except for a steering wheel, the other devices in the driver's seat are not like a car, but like an airplane's cockpit.Yang Jian understood it at a glance, and said, "You have worked hard on this car, haven't you?"

"Isn't it?" Ao Lie scratched his ears, "I was looking for Song Yingxing to make me a frame drawing."

"Song Yingxing?" Yu Chen asked in a low voice.

"Hey, have you ever been to school?" Ao Lie said, "The big guy who wrote "Heavenly Creation"!"

"I major in science and engineering!" Yu Chen said, "This is a history question!"

Ao Lie said, "Stop teasing me."

Monkey King turned around and said: "You two, stop arguing, the road is bumpy, sit still!"

Yang Jian turned on the console, and a sloppy host voice came out: "Welcome to the driving program." The five people present were startled, especially Monkey King's expression was even more rigid, and Ao Lie rushed forward in a panic and pressed buttons randomly on the console. After one pass, the voice turned into an indifferent mechanical voice.

"Ao Lie..." Yang Jian's expression was indescribable, "So you have this habit?"

"Shut up, shut up!" Ao Lie thumped Yang Jian on the back, "Don't talk!"

"Can dragons and monkeys do it?" Yu Chen exaggerated as if joining in the fun, "Wow! Thinking about it, it's very serious!" He was obviously joking, but Ao Lie still shouted angrily: "Yu! Dog! Take it! "

"Slightly slightly!" Yu Chen made a grimace.Luo Bai beside him couldn't hide his smile.

"Let's go." Sun Wukong was still calm, "Is the stealth mode on?"

"Yeah." Yang Jian nodded, stepped on the accelerator, and the car rushed out of the underground garage with a "buzz".Luo Bai was sitting well, while Ao Lie and Yu Chen were still fighting, the two of them were pushed backwards, and it took a long time to get used to the speed of the car.

Yu Chen watched the scenery outside through the car window, and Ao Lie's house was left far behind.They gradually entered the center of the city. There seemed to be more people on the street than before, but all the electronic billboards were closed. It seemed that the appearance was not much different from the previous one. But take a closer look, every intersection The traffic lights are all turned off, replaced by traffic police command.

"The internet is unusable here." Yu Chen said, "The signals from the electronic billboards can't even get through. You can see that it's dark outside. Hey, do you know what it feels like to be disconnected from the internet?"

"How does it feel?" Sun Wukong responded in a particularly face-saving way.

"It's like a person who has been addicted to drugs for more than ten years is suddenly forced to quit drugs." Yu Chen said, "Of course I have never smoked drugs, but I feel that the nature is similar. Although there is no such word as Internet addiction now, modern people The degree of dependence on the Internet is like relying on the air. I remember that the network was cut off for half a day when the original line of my house was renovated. At that time, I couldn’t do it. Killing time. Until the moment the network was restored, I suddenly felt, ah, I came alive."

Yang Jian said while driving: "Since the Internet is so important to you, why did you make a No. 4 out? Doesn't it mean that the group is destroyed if it explodes?"

"Everything has two sides." Yu Chen said, "We will estimate the risk, but which neuropathy would estimate the risk of this non-scientific power? Nuclear energy is still dangerous, so we won't generate electricity?"

"But obviously, your senior brother figured it out." Yang Jian said, "He must know the loophole of No.4, that's why this happened."

As soon as Rong Pu was mentioned, Yu Chen's mood dropped, and he said in a muffled voice: "You ask me, I don't know either. I only know that with my thinking of writing programs at that time, I couldn't think of these external forces at all. If you can think of it, it is really much better than me, and it is a pity."

Yes, if Rong Pu's opinion could have been adopted at that time, and the entire T1 laboratory could start research on artificial intelligence, wouldn't everything now happen?

Rong Pu will live well, and Yu Chen will not meet Yang Jian.

Perhaps, technology should really become a part of the world in the end, rather than a tool in the hands of human beings.

The car was heading west all the way, and there were too many and dense signal networks in developed cities. Ao Lie couldn't even turn on his own network on the car. He didn't have some weak signals until he left the city.

"What's the working principle of this?" Yu Chen asked curiously, "This is not a human system."

"Brought out of the sea." Ao Lie said, "It is not the same frequency as the human signal. You can understand it as something that relies on natural energy to generate network signals."

Yu Chen said, "Is that like a conch?"

"Your imagination is really rich." Ao Lie said, "Unfortunately, this is a car, just an ordinary chip."

"Oh, okay." Yu Chen nestled back, put the notebook on his lap and continued to tap.

Luo Bai did not participate in their conversation, and kept looking at the world outside the window with his chin in one hand.He wasn't as preoccupied as those four people at all, looking at the scenery outside seemed like he was really on an outing, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't get tired of it.After a while, he turned his head and said, "I really haven't been in the human world for a long time, and I still remember how I was before I ascended."

"Eh?" Ao Lie said, "When did you ascend?"

"More than 800 years ago."

Ao Lie said in shock: "You have such a cultivation level so late in your ascension?"

Luo Bai said modestly: "Thanks to Master's enlightenment, otherwise, with my aptitude, I will not be as good as I am now after practicing for 800 years."

Ao Lie is still pinching his fingers to count the time, no matter how he calculates, he finds it unbelievable, what joining Luobai said is true, then it would be too embarrassing for a prince like him who was born as a descendant.As if a hard-working rich second generation can't catch up with a grassroots genius, it's very embarrassing.

The atmosphere in the back row froze for a while, and Yang Jian glanced at Sun Wukong, who smiled and said, "800 years is really short. Lingbao Tianzun is so capable. It seems that after the matter is over, I really want to ask him for advice. .”

Yu Chen said, "How many flags have you set up right now?"

"I'm afraid it's going all the way to Nalingele." Yang Jian continued.

They walked for a day, and the gods didn't eat or drink, which was hard for Yu Chen, but he didn't dare to speak, always afraid that he would cause trouble to the great gods with his mere mortals.When they stopped at a checkpoint in the evening, Yu Chen rushed to the toilet. When he came out, seeing that it was not their turn, he went to the convenience store nearby to buy cigarettes.God knows how much he wanted to cry when he was addicted to smoking.

When checking out, Yu Chen took out his mobile phone, and the little girl at the cash register said, "I'm sorry sir, online payment is no longer available."

"Eh?" Yu Chen thought for a while, "What about swiping the card?"

"No way." The little girl said, "Now I can't even connect to the Internet, and I can only accept cash."

"Is that so..." Yu Chen touched his pocket, scraped together the cigarette money and handed it to the little girl to leave with the cigarette.When he walked to the door of the convenience store, he lit one and took a deep breath, and suddenly felt that the fatigue of the day's journey disappeared.He was about to meet Yang Jian and the others, when suddenly a man came up to him. The man looked nervous, and he walked evasively all the way and looked to both sides.He seemed to be looking for someone, and finally determined the direction of Yu Chen, and walked forward quickly.
