Chapter 490 [One step away]

Amidst the sound of crackling firecrackers, smoke lingered.

Colleagues from the factory, young guys and girls jokingly pushed each other forward.

The young and strong guys in the two teams pushed Chen Jianshe out, who was wearing a shirt that had been starched and washed in advance.

Getting married is so easy in this day and age.Chen Jianshe had a big red flower on his chest, which symbolized the status of the groom, and his face was full of oil... Probably when he woke up this morning, he applied half a bottle of vanishing cream.

Then Ou Xiuhua got out of the car awkwardly.

The car is very simple, it is not a sedan car - 80s, this kind of car is the configuration of the leader.It is too far away from ordinary people.

In fact, it is a small transport truck in the factory fleet.

There was a big red hydrangea-like thing stuck on the front of the car, and ribbons were hung on both sides.A huge Double Happiness is affixed to the windshield.

After the firecrackers were exhausted, Chen Jianshe held Ou Xiuhua, who had just jumped out of the car, by the waist and hugged him in the roar of the people next to him. In the laughter and laughter, he took Ou Xiuhua and strode home.

The home is still the dormitory in the original factory.

However, because of his marriage, Chen Jianshe struggled with the leaders for a month, and finally succeeded in obtaining the right to distribute the dormitory - it will belong to him in the future.

And it also made a relationship and gave gifts. It is said that in the next batch of factories, the names of Chen Jianshe and Ou Xiuhua's young couple were moved to a higher position in the list.

Chen Jianshe carried his bride into the room, and two of his friends began to smoke outside one by one - the smoke was not good smoke, that is, Dazhongjiu or Zhongyuan.

In this era, let alone Huazi, Hongta Mountain is considered to be the top luxury smoke.

The candy is also not much scattered.

No way, in the early 80s, supplies were in short supply.

In this era, sugar, tobacco, and alcohol are still subject to material control, and all belong to the state.

In this era, there will be something that is difficult for people in decades to understand in every place - every place, there will be a kind of state-owned enterprise called "sugar, tobacco and alcohol franchise company".

Candy is mixed.

A small part was bought from the sugar, tobacco and liquor company with sugar tickets, the kind of big white rabbit or double happiness candy.

But this thing is an expensive thing in this era, very few, not many bought.

And more, it is the bulk sugar that Chen Jianshe finds someone to buy from the countryside—maltose made by the farmer himself, and then cut into small pieces.

Fortunately, in this day and age, everyone is not rich.

There are enough of these things to make people happy.

This is the living area of ​​the factory. The so-called neighbors are all employees in the same factory. In fact, everyone knows each other very well, and they all live pretty much the same life.

Chen Jianshe's mother, the old lady, was also picked up.

Entering the house, the originally narrow single-room dormitory was cleaned up neatly.

The bunk bed had long been removed and replaced by a newly made wooden double bed with brand new sheets and pillows.

The washbasin rack, spittoon, and thermos in the house are all new, and Double Happiness is posted on the glass.

Home appliances...that's nothing.

Electric lights, plus a radio.

Don't think about the TV - in this era, whoever has a black and white TV at home can almost be the brightest cub in the street.

This radio is still a second-hand item. Chen Jianshe entrusted it to a friend and bought it from a home appliance repair department. After finding a friend to repair it, the function of the radio station can no longer be used.

But single-card tapes can still be played.Just the occasional churning - but bearable.

The single-room dormitory is not big, so forget about sofas.

One is that I don't have the money to buy it... Even if I hire a carpenter, my house is too small and there's no place to put it.

So the old lady, as a parent, can only sit on a stool and let the couple bow to her.

A team director came to the factory, he was the leader of the unit, and he simply said a few words.

No fee is what it is: respect each other like a guest, honor the elderly.

Of course, I haven't forgotten to add a basic national policy of this era: comply with family planning.

As for a big wedding banquet - there is no such thing in this day and age.

But the working class naturally has a working class way.

Just do it in the canteen of the unit.

In the cafeteria of the unit, Chen Jianshe gritted his teeth and spent two months' wages and set up a few tables.

As for Chen Jianshe's smug look, Ou Xiuhua is actually a little complicated today.

In fact, she was a little confused herself.

From falling in love with Chen Jianshe to getting married, it seems that everything is too fast.

Quickly, the young Ou Xiuhua even felt that she hadn't reacted, so she married herself off.

In fact, Chen Jianshe's conditions did not meet Ou Xiuhua's mate selection conditions at all.

Although he has a good skin, this person does not look very reliable no matter how he looks at it. He can speak well, but he is not practical in doing things. He likes to dress up, and like to be in the limelight.

Also, there are some bad habits.

Ou Xiuhua is the number one flower in the factory, and I don't know how many young and handsome guys are watching secretly.

But why did you end up marrying Chen Jianshe?
In fact, Ou Xiuhua himself can't tell.

Thinking about it carefully, originally a few months ago, the young boy who appeared inexplicably, and then caused himself to be inexplicably implicated, Chen Jianshe was taken to the security office of the factory and beaten...

Because of that incident, I got to know Chen Jianshe inexplicably.

But Chen Jianshe has been avoiding himself since then.

until a few months ago.

The factory held a staff party for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Chen Jianshe, who can speak well, put on a show on behalf of the team.It did make a splash.

At the dance after the party, the two bumped into each other inexplicably.

In the early 80s, dance parties held by young people in factories were particularly popular.

In fact, the wind of the trend has just blown into a society that has been closed for a long time. The so-called dance party, that is, after the Mid-Autumn Festival party, took the opportunity to occupy the auditorium of the factory. The young man took the tape recorder borrowed from the factory office and played it. There were several recorded dance tapes, and everyone danced the disco that was very popular in this era together.

In this era, the hottest and most popular singer among young people is a female singer named Zhang Qiang, who is the eldest sister who appeared in variety shows decades later.

That is to say, at the dance party that night, the marriage line between the two people who had been cut off by Chen Nuo was inexplicably renewed.

That night, Chen Jianshe, who drank two glasses of wine, was inexplicably courageous, and even forgot Chen Nuo's previous warnings and threats to himself, and then ran to talk to Ou Xiuhua.

As for Ou Xiuhua, because Chen Jianshe was involved in the past, he was inexplicably dragged to the security office of the factory and beaten as a hooligan. In fact, he felt a little sorry, so when Chen Jianshe came to talk to himself, Ou Xiuhua was a rare thing. He had a nice chat with Chen Jianshe.

A few days after the dance, Chen Jianshe seemed to be emboldened at once, and he started dangling in front of Ou Xiuhua in the factory, intentionally or unintentionally.

As for Ou Xiuhua, every time he wanted to refuse, he would inexplicably have a voice and a thought in his heart and tell himself: Seeing is better than seeing, maybe this Chen Jianshe is not as unreliable as rumored?
Ou Xiuhua was thinking of "it's okay to get to know each other".

Chen Jianshe held the idea that "that little evil star has left and no one cares about him".

After the two had contacted a few times, they were confused and fell on the object.

There were also a few unexpected interludes in the middle.

For example, once Ou Xiuhua twisted his foot after leaving the factory after leaving get off work, it just happened that Chen Jianshe drove by the truck in the factory and took Ou Xiuhua on the way.

Another example is that the factory distributed labor insurance and welfare materials. Ou Xiuhua took it home from get off work, and Chen Jianshe helped to move it. As a result, when he arrived at the door of Ou Xiuhua's house, the hooks protruding from the wall made a hole in the clothes.

Ou Xiuhua could only ask Chen Jianshe to keep the coat. After all, the girl was kind-hearted, she sewed it up for others, and brought it back to Chen Jianshe in the factory the next day.

Just such a similar episode, a small accident, a good opportunity happened in just one or two months.

Then...the two of them were confused, and they fell in love with each other.

Ou Xiuhua slowly felt that although Chen Jianshe was a little impetuous, he was still very enthusiastic about himself after all, and he could speak well.

Moreover, in this day and age, being a driver in a large state-owned factory-this is a very good job!Speaking out is basically equivalent to 40 years later, when you introduce to others, you are a lawyer and doctor.

Iron rice bowl, good welfare, and many invisible benefits.

As for being impetuous, just be impetuous.

They are all young people, how many are calm?
It shouldn't be a big problem...isn't it?

Besides, Chen Jianshe is not without advantages.

He... he looks good!
Handsome guy!

What girl doesn't like a handsome guy?
·
As for Chen Jianshe, he likes beautiful women.

Although I was frightened by the little evil star that suddenly appeared from Chen Nuo.

But Chen Nuo hasn't shown up for a few months, so... Chen Jianshe is not afraid.

·
Amidst the roar of the surrounding neighbors, Chen Jianshe smiled and took out the marriage certificate of the two from the street, put it in the mezzanine behind the photo frame of the wedding photo, and hung it on the wall solemnly.

The wedding photos were taken in the photo studio of the factory.

Then everyone was booing, and they went to the factory cafeteria to eat and drink wedding wine.

·
Chen Nuo saw all of this in his eyes.

He and "Zero" stood among the crowd of onlookers by the roadside, not showing off the mountains or the water.

The appearance of the two people looks ordinary, standing in the crowd, it is not inconspicuous at all.

Seeing Chen Jianshe carrying Ou Xiuhua out of the car and entering the house, Chen Nuo couldn't help sighing.

Finally still...

"Be happy, after all, with today, you will be born in a year." Zero stood beside Chen Nuo and said in a low voice with a smile.

Chen Nuo shook his head: "This really hurt Ou Xiuhua. That guy Chen Jianshe is really not a good bird."

Speaking of this, Chen Nuo suddenly frowned and looked back at Zero: "So...the trajectory of history...Chen Jianshe will get worse and worse, abandon his wife and children, and lose his conscience. Bar?"

Zero didn't say anything, but it was obviously the default.

Chen Nuo frowned: "Everything is for me? To create an environment and identity for me?"

"You have to understand that the reason you are who you are, and all your circumstances are made up of your life experience, family background, encounters... everything."

Chen Nuo narrowed his eyes: "Tell me carefully."

Zero sighed.

Suddenly, he waved his hand, and the two disappeared from the place without a sound.

The people around, no one noticed.

·
A second later, Chen Nuo and Zero, the two figures, had appeared by the river.

It is not far from the riverside transportation terminal of the factory.

A hundred and ten meters away, is the busy wharf transportation.

The two stood on the flood embankment by the river.

Looking at the river rolling by in front of him, Chen Nuo squinted at Zero.

Although this appearance is definitely not what Zero really looks like - in fact, Chen Nuo suspects that this guy named Zero may not have a fixed physical image at all.

"You've been controlling me for so long, you should let me know something, right?" Chen Nuo raised his eyebrows.

Zero smiled.

"You have to be Chen Nuo.

I mean...from Chen Yanluo to Chen Nuo of Jiangning No. [-] Middle School. "

Chen Nuo's face changed slightly!
Sure enough, just like in my previous guess!
This Zero... He knew the secret of his rebirth! !

"Don't doubt, I know more than you guess." Zero looked at the Yangtze River in front of him, and smiled leisurely: "You know, in this world, I am afraid there is nothing that I don't know.

Even if I don't know now, I can know if I want to know. "

Chen Nuo's expression became ugly. After a long time, he slowly squeezed out a word:
"Omniscience?"

"Well, yes, omniscient, and... almost omnipotent." Zero replied calmly.

Chen Nuo took a deep breath, and his tone was a bit difficult: "Omniscient and omnipotent... Wouldn't that be equivalent to a god?"

"Not yet...because I'm just near omnipotent, not really omnipotent."

Saying that, Zero raised his left hand and snapped his fingers gently!
Snapped!
·
Chen Nuo felt as if in an instant, his whole body was wrapped in a mass of invisible energy!
It's like being in the water!

And looking around, in all directions, the world has begun to change rapidly!
River, ups and downs!
The hillside on the opposite bank in the distance, the green turns gray and yellow, spring comes and autumn goes!

From hot summer to snowy!
In the dock of the factory in the distance, the ships pass by like a shuttle.
Later, it gradually became deserted and dilapidated...

On both sides of the river, the flood control dams have changed from mud and stone to granite.

Then there are Riverside Avenue on both sides, and the cable bridge across the river in the distance.

The towering factory chimneys were torn down and replaced by new buildings...

·
This snap of fingers instantly felt like a quick release that was dialed a hundred times a thousand times faster.

In an instant, decades have changed!

·
Chen Nuo was shocked! !
This kind of time control ability similar to "a thousand years at a glance" makes Chen Nuo experience it with his own eyes.Let him not be shocked! !

And Zero, on the side, smiled lightly.

He snapped his fingers again.

Snapped!
·
All the changes suddenly retreated, like a fast rewind, and the towering real estate buildings became the chimneys of factories again.

The cable bridge across the river disappeared.

The beautiful riverside avenues and landscape belts have been transformed into bare flood control dams.

And the transport terminal in the distance has changed back to its old and shabby appearance.

·
Chen Nuo swallowed the spit in his mouth, but found that his mouth was dry.

"So...you can control the time at will?"

"No, no, it's not that I can control the time in this world, but that I can travel freely in this time stream.

I'm not making time go faster, I just can jump to any point in time at any time. "

After zero serious answer: "This is my first ability: time."

"Since there is a first, there must be a second."

"My second ability is space."

Chen Nuo frowned: "Space... This ability, many seeds have it, and I also have it. Space teleportation!"

"No, they don't. Neither do you." Zero actually shook his head seriously: "What you have is a 'warp space' ability, not a space ability."

"……What's the meaning?"

"You exist in this world, so you can only perform space teleportation in the world where you exist."

Chen Nuo listened to this sentence and thought about it seriously: "...this world...the world that exists...you mean, there is a world outside of us?"

"It's not difficult to understand... Parallel worlds, you understand."

"understood."

The concept of a parallel world, in the era that Chen Nuo experienced later, has been rotten in various film and television literature works.

This doesn't need any further explanation.

"Theoretically, for example, you are Chen Yanluo. In fact, there are countless parallel three-dimensional worlds, and there are countless Chen Yanluos.

Unless...you become a four-dimensional being!

Then when you become a four-dimensional being, the Chen Yanluo in countless dimensions will no longer exist, and there will only be one Chen Yanluo.

This Chen Yanluo has become the only life in the four-dimensional world, or the only four-dimensional life.

You can overlook all the three-dimensional world.

Well, to put it in a very coercive way.

Jumping out of the Three Realms, not in the Five Elements. "

Chen Nuo pondered for a while, then suddenly took a breath and stared at Zero: "What do you mean, you?"

"Yes, in all parallel worlds, there is only one me. I am the only existence.

In every parallel world, there is you, there are other seeds, and there are deer...

But in all the parallel worlds, there is only one me!

I am the only existence. "

Zero's tone was calm: "And the 'space' ability I have is not the kind of 'transmission' you think.

Instead... I can jump to any parallel world I want!
This is true space capability! "

After speaking, Zero sighed softly: "Time, plus space, these two abilities allow me to do many, many things."

Chen Nuo's face was even more ugly!
"The same seeds, why are you so much stronger than... you are so much stronger than West Germany?"

"Because I'm a backup." Zero shook his head: "The parent's backup.

The origin of the mother body, West Germany has told you a lot.

About the path of evolution.

Regarding the mental virus that is fatal to the mother, it has nothing wrong or reservations about it.

As a pure spiritual being, there is a serious bug in the evolution of the Matrix, so it did not jump to the fourth dimension in the end, and stopped before the threshold of the fourth dimension.

So for the mother body, if you want to solve this problem, you can only make a lot of assumptions.

Sid and that cat, that octopus, and all the other seeds like them, are an attempt by the mother.

They represent an attempt by the mother body: starting anew, starting from the starting point of three-dimensional life, starting to re-evolve, and finding a way to make up for bugs before evolution.

For me, it is another attempt. "

"Another attempt?" Chen Nuo frowned.

Zero smiled: "You've played video games, right? It's not an online game, it's an old-fashioned video game.

The kind that can be archived and read. "

"If you mean the stand-alone game...of course I've played it."

"Okay, then let's use a single machine as an analogy.

Assuming that the evolution of the Matrix is ​​a stand-alone game, when it reaches the last level, facing a final boss, it suddenly finds that it can't beat it no matter what.

Because it may have missed a certain prop, a clue, or a certain condition that satisfies the final BOSS in the past level that it has played before.

Of course, this is just speculation, not certain.

But what is certain is that the parent body can't beat the final boss and can't clear the level.

So, this time, the question comes - what would you do if you were the player? "

Chen Nuo thought for a while: "It's been determined, why can't you beat the final boss? No matter what? You can't pass the level?"

"Yes, sure."

Chen Nuo said slowly: "Then... I may start a new file again... Then, start over from the first level! Let's see if I have missed any tasks or tasks during the process of re-playing all the levels. key tool."

"That's right... This new file is the batch of seeds from West Germany!
They represent the mother's re-attempt, starting from the starting point of evolution, re-travelling the path of evolution, re-finding what was missed, trying to solve the bug. "

Chen Nuo nodded: "I understand...but, what about you? West Germany is a new gear, so you..."

Zero smiled.

It smiled calmly, but his eyes gave Chen Nuo an indescribably meaningful feeling.

"I ask you...you play games, before opening a new file...what will you do?"

"I will..." Chen Nuo's eyes suddenly lit up!
He solemnly took a breath: "I will save it first!"

"Yes, if West Germany they are the new gear.

Then I... I am the one that the Matrix saved before giving up when it was unable to defeat the final BOSS!

Because there will always be such a practice.

Save a file, just in case, maybe the new road won't work, then save a file on the old road, maybe you can try again...

After all, the game that has been played for so long has reached the last level, so there is no need to give up completely.

Stand at the door of the final boss, save a file, and then reopen. "

Zero slowly said: "Of course, these are our game analogies.

But in practice, in terms of the problems we encountered, there is actually a more cost-effective approach! "

Chen Nuo thought about it seriously, and suddenly, his eyes became extremely terrifying!
There was even a hint of deep fear in Chen Nuo's eyes!

"I understand!"

"Do you really understand?"

"I really understand." Chen Nuo sighed.

·
Games are games, and reality is reality.

Games are just analogies.

But in reality, there is a smarter and more efficient way!

Just ...

The newly opened new file, let the batch of seeds headed by West Germany evolve again!
In the process of evolution, find bugs and solve them!

and then?
Then West Germany they complete evolution?

Do not!
That's too much trouble!

Because after making up for the bug, it may take a long time to evolve, countless years!

After all, it still takes a long, long time to reopen the file, restart from the first level, and hit the last level.

Isn't it too much trouble?

So easy way?

The guys from West Germany who opened a new file found a bug and found a solution to the bug...

You don't need them anymore!

They don't need to continue to evolve!
directly to...

The archive that has already stood at the door of the final BOSS——Zero!

It is already standing at the door of the final BOSS!

It is only one step away from the completion of evolution!

It doesn't need to restart the game from the first level!
It's already at the last level!

It doesn't have to start all over again like they did in West Germany!
It's already one step ahead of the finish line!
At this time, as long as Zero, from those guys in West Germany, got a solution to the bug.

It can directly push the door in, and use the method to solve the BUG to directly defeat the final BOSS.

Game is over!
·
[I have been quarantined for the past few days... I encountered an accident. I went to a meeting outside the country, and I just arrived at the hotel where the meeting was held. Because of a close connection among the participants, I and all the participants were isolated in the hotel... ...I originally planned to go back on the same day, so I didn't bring a laptop or anything, I didn't even bring a change of clothes.

Fortunately, today finally ended the isolation and went home. 】
