When the law of conservation of isolation is broken

They followed Lu Xing out of the 'night flight', around some streets, and eventually arrived at the dock, where a spaceship was waiting for them.Lu Xing opened the cockpit without looking back.

"Come in." He only said a word to them, unlocked the cabin door of the spaceship, and signaled them to sit in the back seat.

"Where are we going?" Zhang Luotuo asked blankly.

Lu Xing glanced at him in the rearview mirror, and seemed to think his question was funny: "Just like what you long for, the south wall."

But Zhang Luotuo didn't mean that. He wanted to know the exact place name, but Lu Xing ignored the question, as if he didn't hear it.Zhang Luotuo turned his head away, but saw Qiao De sitting peacefully in his seat, just like usual.Looking out the window calmly, there seems to be no curiosity, and no interest in where to go.

As expected, they all belong to the management department, Zhang Luotuo thought slanderously.

The spaceship suddenly flew over the combination of cube-like buildings and black-painted avenues, the maze of pink images and light composed of virtual girls, left the city area, and shuttled among the hundreds of floors of apartments and shipyards, but Lu Xing couldn't see it. Look, without a word, just skim them.Those apartments kept being left behind by him, like endless data.

Zhang Luotuo blinked, unable to find any difference in those densely packed apartments.The spacecraft moved forward tirelessly, as if passing through a space-time tunnel.Gradually, he noticed that the number of densely packed apartments began to decrease at an extremely slow rate, and the spaceships that passed by them in the air changed from crowded to smooth, and the surrounding scenery changed from a city scene to a desolate, endless The gray is just around the corner.He leaned against the window and gradually became sleepy during this peaceful and long journey, but Joad kept staring at the scenery outside the window vigilantly, as if remembering the way in secret.

The spaceship seemed to be heading towards the end of the sky.Zhang Luotuo thought uneasily, although the trajectory of the spaceship was smooth and gentle.

After a long period of time, maybe a few hours, maybe a dozen hours, Zhang Luotuo found that those familiar and unfamiliar apartments had completely disappeared. The arc was replaced by a dwarf and nostalgic industrial area. He looked down from the window and greedily looked at the scene in front of him. He had read "History of Chongqing". The most marginal area of ​​Chongqing is the industrial area, and the people living here are like nests As busy as you are, starting work for people in the city and completing some heavy industrial projects.Zhang Luotuo has always wanted to come here to have a look, but he never left. He used to think that he was lazy, but then he understood that, as Joad said, Mars does not allow him to turn his ideas into reality, it inhibits him , like suppressing the others.

They kept skimming the surface of the industrial area, and flew through many lanes in a twist and turn. The black smoke disappeared in the sky like shadows, and the land transitioned from gray to brown, showing an uncultivated tone.Gradually, the industrial area also began to become scattered and fragmented. There were fewer and fewer tall towers or factories, and they were replaced by more and more extensive land. The brown color of the land began to fade slowly, revealing a strange hue. Slowly, as the spaceship continued to drive forward, the surface became clear and turned into a desert-like yellow, while the ground was empty, fully displaying this yellow color under the sky.Zhang Luotuo looked at the scene in front of him in surprise, clenched his hands into fists, and did not blink his eyes.where is thisHe thought, "Chongqing History" never mentioned that there is such a place in Chongqing, and neither did other books. The best place is the industrial area, which is not mentioned in those books - endless land, empty of people, technology and people seem to have never existed, like an unknown place.

"Where is this?" He said unconsciously.

"The edge of the city." Hearing what he said, Lu Xing said coldly, and looked at Joad again, "The map given to you by the Mars base didn't tell you this, did it? Boss? Although it is completely honest with you, it also Not without concealment."

His ridicule was cold: "But of course I understand you. Even if you knew that there was such a place, you wouldn't look for it. After all, you thought they would pick you up in four years. How can you find a place to escape? That is Why should we bother imitating what people need to do? After all, I thought so in the beginning.”

But Joad didn't answer. He looked at the endless land outside the window, as if he was in some kind of meditation.

Lu Xing let the spacecraft glide forward for a long time until the part of the brown earth behind it completely disappeared, except for the sky on the left and right, leaving only a piece of dull bright yellow.

"Here we are." He said succinctly, and continued to fly forward. The spaceship flew lower and lower, and finally landed on the ground.Zhang Luotuo turned his head. He looked at Joad. Joad was looking out the window in deliberation. He turned his head after noticing his gaze.

"It's okay." Joad mouthed him, cold and firm as usual.

Zhang Luotuo nodded and felt relieved. He took a deep breath, opened the door of the spaceship, jumped off the spaceship, and Joad followed behind him.It's cold here.Zhang Luotuo knew it as soon as he stood on the ground. The cold wind blew over and cut his skin like a sharp knife.

Lu Xing stepped off the spaceship and closed the hatch of the spaceship.Standing on the ground, he stepped back thoughtfully and looked into the distance, his forehead covered by blown hair.

The endless yellow land, where no soul lingers.

"That's the south wall," he said suddenly, stretching out his hand, pointing to a broad horizon.

Zhang Luotuo looked around, frowned, and said nothing. He didn't see anything special. There was only gray sky and endless yellow land here.

"There." Lu Xing saw his confusion, and pointed somewhere again.Zhang Luotuo followed his hand to look, and this time something different finally appeared in his sight. There was a huge red stone ten meters away, which was the only companion on this yellow land.

Zhang Luotuo frowned, not understanding what Lu Xing meant: "That's the south wall?" He turned around and said in confusion.

Lu Xing looked at his reaction, and a sneer sounded from his lips: "No. Look at your confused look. It's not like this when I came here a month ago." He stroked his hair, looked at the stone in the distance, As if caught in a memory, "Zheng Zheng and I drove the spaceship to come here..."

Zhang Luotuo turned his head abruptly, and he questioned, "You and Zheng Zheng?" The name surprised him.

Lu Xing made an indifferent grimace at him, and his voice was low and deep: "It's me and her. We drank a little wine that night, on a whim, and wanted to see if we could escape the city, so we decided to head outside the city. Flying the spaceship, flying and flying, maybe we can leave, but we just think - because neither she nor I know where the edge of the city will be, maybe not at all, and after crossing so many incredible sights, When we were all tired, we really flew here by mistake and saw a piece of yellow land. We stopped here, ten meters away from the red stone..."

Zhang Luotuo glanced at the stone again. It was very close to him, and it looked heavy and heavy. It didn't seem to have anything to do with Lu Xing and Zheng Zheng's escape.

"We were very excited at the time. At first we were just trying it out, but it seemed that we had discovered something. These yellow lands—the endless edge, and Chongqing has never been mentioned in any book or even on the Internet. Once, Mars obviously didn’t want people to find this place.” Lu Xing raised his head, his mandibles looked thin and sharp, “We began to have hope, is the end here the exit? We thought so at the time, almost excited Trembling and driving the ship towards there..." He pointed to the tiny, invisible yellow horizon that lay ahead of them like a mirage.

"Did you see that red stone? The one you looked at just now?" He turned around and suddenly said maliciously to Zhang Luotuo.

red stone.Zhang Luotuo turned his head and glanced at the stone ten meters away. He wanted to answer that Lu Xing had seen it, but he didn't say anything. He found that Lu Xing's eyes were extremely confused. Although he was asking him, he didn't listen to him at all. , but into the depths of his thoughts following his own narration, as if returning to that night, only he, Zheng Zheng, Zhang Luotuo and Qiao De disappeared in his eyes.

"That's where we met 'South Wall'." Lu Xing said, his voice getting lower and lower. "'South Wall' is the name I gave to that thing. Actually, I don't know what to call it. At that time We excitedly start the spaceship and prepare to dive towards the horizon. I feel that hope is close at hand-I start the engine and start the spaceship, but the strange thing is that when we fly to the area around the red stone, the spaceship can't move forward It flew, and it made a buzzing sound, as if it was blocked by something."

In the middle of the night, the horizon is getting closer and closer, and the gravel is kicked up under the spaceship.Zhang Luotuo narrowed his eyes, but he only saw the transparent air flowing beside the stone, and there seemed to be nothing special there.

Lu Xing shivered for a while, and he continued to say in a low voice: "I can't say what it is, but it is blocked, like there is an invisible wall there. The spaceship can't move forward half a bit. So I took a few steps back and added The horsepower of the big spaceship made it rush forward, but it made a huge humming sound just to the left of the red stone, and could not move forward. At the same time, I felt my head began to faint slightly, and my limbs were twisted It hurt like breaking. And Zheng Zheng’s face turned pale, and his breathing became more and more rapid. We thought it was just an accidental phenomenon at first, but the symptoms became more and more serious as the spaceship’s horsepower increased. A voice warned me in my mind: Stop! You must turn back !Otherwise there will be death! I didn’t want to stop at first, I have nothing to regret, and it’s okay to die, but Zheng Zheng is dying, and she even has a short period of suspended animation symptoms. I had to stop the spaceship and let it land on the spot, Stop here."

Lu Xing pointed to the red stone ten meters away: "At first we thought it was a problem with the spaceship. After a long rest, we decided to walk over directly. But the same thing, just as we walked to the red stone, an invisible wall The wall blocked us and made us unable to move forward. It is invisible, but it is too thick. We suspected that it was the problem of the stone. It might be a mechanism, so we moved it to one side, but the result was the same. No matter where the stone is moved, the wall is still there. The stone is not an obstacle, but more like someone put there to remind us that we can't go here, like a red light warning. In short, every time we go there, we can't go. Forward."

"Then I tried to push away the invisible obstacle, but in less than a second, my body seemed to have a power flow, and a dizzy black appeared in front of my eyes. It felt like dying, worse than being on a spaceship. Oops." Lu Xing raised his head, his eyes were empty, and murmured, "Then we had to admit the fact that we couldn't leave this city. We were blocked by something, like hitting the south wall."

After Lu Xing finished speaking, he suddenly fell into silence, lowered his head, and his whole body trembled unknowingly, as if he had returned to that day, that moment in person.

"Are you okay?" Zhang Luotuo said worriedly. He noticed something was wrong with Lu Xing and wanted to step forward to help him.

These words woke Lu Xing up, he moved suddenly, took a deep breath, stepped out of memory, pressed the bridge of his nose with his hand, rubbed it, and stubbornly pretended not to see Zhang Luotuo and Qiao De standing aside.He didn't raise his head until his emotions had completely calmed down.

"I'm fine." He said, smiling contemptuously at Zhang Luotuo, "That's the south wall."

He shakes off the emotions that had been haunting him before, and changes the subject flatly, looking completely fine.He even raised his eyebrows at Zhang Luotuo: "Didn't you say you want to challenge the south wall—then, as you said, which one of you will try first?"

"I don't care if I die," he added harshly.
