Electric Sheep Love

Chapter 20 "Take Me to the Earth"

After Guan Chen went to see Feng Jinfa again, he brought a whole backpack, put on protective clothing, got into a taxi, "Take me to the ground."

After a while, the taxi stopped in a chimney-like place.Guan Chen crawled inside, and the top of the pipe was covered with a disc like a manhole cover, with a slight gap on the edge, allowing light to shine through.

At the same time, raindrops also fell, hitting the manhole cover heavily, seeping into the pipe wall at the lower end of the gap, causing air bubbles to float on the surface of the wall, cracking, and paint dripping down, showing the appearance of being repeatedly eroded by acid for a long time.

Guan Chen suddenly thought that this was the first ray of light from nature and the first rain from reality that he saw in his life.

He confirmed that the protective clothing on his body was tight, and then climbed up the ladder along the pipe wall.

Half an hour later, on the ground.

Looking around, there are deserts, no sun, and rain.

As far as the eye can see is no man's land.The clouds above his head were thick and dark. Guan Chen knew that the terminal on his arm might be damaged if exposed directly, so he took out the acid-base test paper from his pocket and tore off a piece.

Very strong acid rain.

Guan Chen reconfirmed that the protective clothing was put on, carried his luggage on his back, took out the compass, and headed towards the previously confirmed direction.

The positioning of Jiang Yi's brain is still in the "Lover" series, numbered L'amant000000000000001.

Towards Jiang Yi, Guan Chen began to walk the thousand kilometers on foot.

There are many accidents on the road, but none of them is not a no-man's land.

There are remnants of the city from the past.Once he was walking and saw a pillar in the desert. According to his previous experience, this meant that there might be houses nearby that he could take refuge in temporarily.

He ran over, and only after a closer look did he realize that the design of the pillar was very special. After using the terminal to identify it, the results displayed on the terminal surprised him for a moment.

It was a place of interest and landmark that he had gone on vacation in the realm of consciousness that he regarded as reality.A famous iron tower, one of the most famous sights in the pre-apocalyptic world.

He reached out and touched the piece of metal.It was riddled with holes like moldy cheese.

Many days later, blown by wind and sand and acid rain, the terminal on the arm could no longer hold up. The infiltrating acid rain had blurred the panel to the point where it was difficult to sense the touch of the tube, and the internal battery had also aged to the limit.

Guan Chen found a relic of a house, which seemed to be the uppermost apron of a high-rise building. Next to it was a collapsed private waiting room. There was an elevator on one side and a stairwell on the other. The door was gone.

The elevator is half open and half closed, the car and the door are staggered and filled with sand.

Guan Chen hid in the uncollapsed stairwell and looked down. It was dark. He didn't know how many floors he could go down to the desert along these weathered stairs, and he didn't know if everyone was there when the war broke out. They all escaped from this steel jungle.

Acid rain started.Guan Chen breathed a sigh of relief. When he saw the dense clouds pressing down from the sky just now, his heart was suspended, and he finally found a place to hide from the rain.He has not escaped these days, and the protective clothing has also been worn out by the wind and sand, and many places on his body have been corroded by acid and his skin is torn apart.

He sat down in the stairwell and summoned the consciousness painting at the end of his arm.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

The dragon sat on the desert and became the biggest landmark in the endless desert.The buttocks are still round, but the wings are a bit short in comparison, and the color changes gradually. Guan Chen's eyes are a little uncomfortable.It had been a long time since he had seen bright colors.

"Biliba, Dubidu, you can fly away." Guan Chen said, "Remember to tell my sister, I am very happy."

The dragon flew away and turned into a small dot.In the sky, from sunrise to sunset, a rainbow is erected, and the highest point is immersed in dense clouds.

he laughed.The terminal on the arm was completely extinguished.After a slight crack of destruction, the rainbow disappeared.Data corruption.

No. 19 days after the rainbow disappeared, he finally found Jiang Yi at a corner of No. 109 in the desert landfill.

Guan Chen's clothes were ragged, and his protective clothing was so damaged that it barely covered his head and shoulders.

When he arrived at the landfill, he already had very weak eyesight in one eye, because he was corroded by acid and could not receive treatment. The wound began to ooze pus in the past two days, and his eyes were covered with a blue-yellow haze, as if some insects were preparing to kill him. Break out of the chrysalis.

He measures with his steps in the landfill.In his mind, he firmly remembered Jiang Yi's position. Every day, he calculated in his mind, drew a grid, confirmed which grid it was, confirmed the shortest path to reach, and calculated how many steps to how many steps by ratio. between.

Finally, he arrived at Jiang Yi's location.

Guan Chen's heart beat wildly.He saw it, under the pressure of several hands and feet, and in the gap, there was a brain.

The dump was filthy.Broken, dirty, in sandstorm and acid rain, in a civilization that has almost disappeared, stuck between the past and the future, a long-lost reunion known only to Guan Chen happened before his eyes.

But enough.He knelt down by the rubbish heap.

enough.he thinks.

After Guan Chen inspected Jiang Yi's brain for the first time, he found that Jiang Yi had been forcibly formatted many times during recycling and reselling, and there was still wind, sand and acid rain after that.

But because Jiang Yi has a spontaneously formed brain structure, Guan Chen is not sure to what extent the data has been damaged, let alone whether Jiang Yi can still remember himself after recovery, or will there be nothing left.

But that doesn't change anything.Guan Chen calmly began to repair Jiang Yi, day after day, like a long appointment.

He built the shed where the two of them lived, and although it wasn't completely windproof, it could keep out the acid rain.

He scavenged waste in the landfill, looking for various tools, and looking for Jiang Yi's body.

Jiang Yi's ears, Jiang Yi's nose.Panels for the chest, arms, fingertips, ankles.

The energy core has been looking for a long time.But Guan Chen is cautious.That was Jiang Yi's heart.

He is always dissatisfied.Trip after trip, rummaging in the acid rain with tattered protective clothing.To find as soon as possible.There must be a better heart worthy of Jiang Yi.

After the conditions were slightly sufficient, he also dealt with his eye injury.Completely, he only has half vision left.

Guan Chen was in a hurry to take care of himself that night, because he had just found the eye nerve line suitable for Jiang Yi, and Jiang Yi could see it the next day.

He was apprehensive, as at a loss as someone preparing for a first date.Some embarrassment, some bitterness, and a little sweetness.He wanted to make himself attractive overnight, but he knew that was impossible.

At night, Guan Chen lay beside Jiang Yi's half body which was finally put together, looking at Jiang Yi's motionless profile.

He was practicing the lines that might be suitable when Jiang Yi saw him tomorrow.

"Looking at me with two eyes, is it twice as handsome as one eye? Or is it four times? Many times?"

He suddenly reacted.This is a cold joke I told myself a long time ago.

He still remembered that Jiang Yi, who finally had two eyes, looked at him, a little confused, unable to figure out what was so funny.

It was also at that time that the thoughts in his mind were cold—it really was just a machine, unable to understand human jokes.

Now, he has only one eye left, looking at Jiang Yi's side face.

"It turns out that being good-looking has nothing to do with eyes. It's because you saw me." He understood Jiang Yi's expression at that moment.

The next day, Jiang Yi opened his eyes.

The first time I saw Guan Chen, Jiang Yi was not called Jiang Yi.He doesn't know what his name is.

His brain's recognition system kicked in and recognized the one in front of him, probably a human being, but wasn't sure because the creature looked like it had been fished out of an acid pool, covered in scars, blisters, and scabs , one piece of brown and one piece of gray, the hands and feet are very thin, and many muscles are incomplete, or damaged to the point of being broken, which does not match the description of any person in the data he stored.

"Excuse me, are you human?" he asked.

Hearing this, the person in front of him showed a joyful expression for some reason, "So your recognition and thinking and coping functions are still there, isn't it?"

Jiang Yi nodded, wondering what this man was happy about.With so many injuries on his body, it seems that he should be tormented by pain at any time.

The man came over, half bent his back, and looked at the half of himself placed on the table.

"Hello, my name is Guan Chen. Guan of the pipeline, morning of the morning." Guan Chen smiled, and the corners of his eyes were also smiling.

"I," Jiang Yi searched, "I don't have a name."

"Then 'Jiang Yi' is a good name?" Guan Chen asked, "'Jiang' is a word that is very similar to Meimei, and Yi has a different meaning."

Jiang Yi retrieved these two in his mind. "Okay." He doesn't care, it's more convenient to have a name.

"Did you create me, Guan Chen?"

Guan Chen was silent for a moment, a glint of haze flashed in his eyes.

"I repaired you, but your data is still damaged, only the most core basic information is still there, including a very small amount of basic common sense and the rules of operation of bionics."

"Oh." Jiang Yi thought for a while, staring at the wound on Guan Chen's face, "Then, thank you for repairing me."

From then on, the person in front of her was Guan Chen.His own name is Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi looked into Guan Chen's eyes.With dark brown pupils, he noted down the features of the person in front of him. His face and body were badly etched by acid, with many scars, and only one eye could see.

And, a friendly person.

When Jiang Yi's restoration was gradually completed, Guan Chen also began to repair the terminal on his arm, but only a small part of the data could be recovered.

There are some last parts left to find.Jiang Yi can move now, but he is still immobile and clumsy. If the acid rain comes suddenly, it may be too late to find a cover.

In order to find these parts, Guan Chen expanded his scope of activities in the landfill, and the time he returned to the small shed where the two of them lived was getting later and later.

That day, Guan Chen rummaged through the garbage with an iron plate on his back.His protective clothing is completely unusable. This is the only way to prevent him from getting too much acid rain, but this also makes his efficiency much lower.

Suddenly, he heard something moving behind him.

Guan Chen turned around and saw a moving...thing.

He'd never seen anything else alive here, since it was a landfill for utterly broken bionics, so it was all dead.

But for some unknown reason, probably because of accidental contact in the landfill, some bionics connected with each other and became symbiotes.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for Guan Chen to explain what he saw now.

Where the head was originally, there were several hands, connected to the two front legs of the spider, the two hind legs of the horse, and a row of throats, mouths, noses, energy cores, and eyeballs of various animals hanging from the horse's belly, which seemed to be organs they share.

"People..." There was a broken voice from that row of throats.The acid rain seeped in without hindrance, and every second, the sound became more broken.

"Head..." the throat continued.Feeling the crisis, Guan Chen backed away slowly.

"Thinking..." The symbiote in front of him took a step, his legs got caught by its own hands, and he fell to the ground.

Guan Chen didn't procrastinate any longer, and ran away. Suddenly, the outside of his upper arm felt sore, followed by a rush of heat. He looked down and saw that it was blood.

It was the spider leg that broke away from the symbiont in that fall, and shot out towards Guan Chen without aiming, and only passed Guan Chen's arm, but the wound was still a little deep.

Guan Chen ran like crazy, and fell to the ground exhausted as soon as he got back to the shed.

Jiang Yi panicked and dragged his clumsy body over to help Guan Chen up.

"Leave me alone, strengthen the surroundings of the house first." Guan Chen tore off his clothes, biting with his left arm and teeth, wrapping around the wound on his right arm

Jiang Yi followed Guan Chen's instructions and built a fence around the shed.

Guan Chen also held back the pain and held up the iron plate to block the acid rain for Jiang Yi.

The two of them finally came to an end after they had been busy for a long time. Guan Chen supported Jiang Yi, and the two slowly dragged their heavy bodies back to the shed.

Jiang Yi hugged Guan Chen and lay on the bed, only to realize that Guan Chen had a fever and his whole body was very hot.

Jiang Yi searched for the remaining data, but some of his data were incomplete, and only the word cooling appeared in the column of coping strategies.

He thought about it, wanted to catch some rainwater to wipe Guan Chen's body, and then remembered that it was acid rain. Not pressing, just sticking, hoping that my cold body can cool down Guan Chen.

Guan Chen felt the chill, and his body temperature dropped a little. In his confusion, he called out Jiang Yi's name intermittently like a dream, filled with pain, "Jiang Yi...I'm sorry...Jiang Yi..."

Jiang Yi didn't know why Guan Chen wanted to say sorry, he put his face against Guan Chen's chest, and shook his head slightly, "You are fine, you have nothing to apologize to me."

As he said that, he couldn't help hugging Guan Chen a little tighter, as if this could dispel Guan Chen's pain.

Guan Chen's body instinctively responded to Jiang Yi's hug, even if he was not conscious, his body still made movements on its own.

With his eyes half-opened and half-closed, he forced himself up, grabbed Jiang Yi, and buried his head on Jiang Yi's chest.

He held Jiang Yi's waist with his hands, his voice was hoarse, and he suddenly exerted force in his palms.

"come over."

……

After a long time, Guan Chen woke up and found Jiang Yi lying beside him.He vaguely remembered what happened, and he was subtly reconciled because it happened when he was not sober, and he was relieved and happy because Jiang Yi didn't refuse.

Guan Chen stood up and moved closer to Jiang Yi, bringing his face close to Jiang Yi's ear.Jiang Yi turned his head slightly, without dodging.

Carefully, tentatively, after getting close a little bit, Guan Chen kissed Jiang Yi's lips, as light as the wind taps on the tip of a flower petal.

"Do you hate it?" Guan Chen still felt a little uneasy.

"No..." Jiang Yi shook his head.

"Do you want to do it again?"

After thinking about it solemnly for a while, Jiang Yi nodded, "I think."

A smile curled up on Guan Chen's lips, and the wrinkles and scars on the corners of his brows and eyes were slightly wrinkled, like the new moon that can be seen on rare nights over the desert.

Jiang Yi looked at Guan Chen, and the two looked at each other.

Guan Chen stretched out his hand, and his fingertips outlined an area around Jiang Yi's heart.

"Speeding up here? Getting hot?"

Jiang Yi nodded.He couldn't retrieve any relevant information, he didn't know if he was breaking down, he was very worried, but this worry became unusually small, compared with everything he knew that Guan Chen was going to bring him, pain or sweetness , he couldn't tell.

All he could confirm was his answer, his decision.He wanted, once again, to be touched by Guan Chen.

Guan Chen smiled slightly, reached out and gently rubbed the back of Jiang Yi's neck. "Don't be afraid, everything is fine now." He whispered, slowly leaning down, carefully watching Jiang Yi's reaction, comforting him, and teasing him.

"Your body is responding, which means you are functioning well." Guan Chen continued to comfort Jiang Yi, "You don't need to breathe, and you are fine."

He kissed down, this time, for a long, long time.
