Planetary Museum

Yan Xiu was finally taken to a room.

The character at the door of the room, the search and rescue team explained him to him, but he didn't understand.

"Government Affairs Consulting Office." The entire phrase consists of three words, government affairs, consultation, and office.

Yan Xiu could barely understand the consultation, but he didn't understand the government affairs and the office.

But this is not important, he was brought here only because the search and rescue team believed that Yanxiu, or the flying people here, obviously had a great relationship with this space station, for example, their personal belongings could unlock the permissions here—— This likely means they used to live here - although no one ever remembers that.

There is a flying steel in the room. Yan Xiu closed his eyes, and he could feel that this piece of steel seemed to be some kind of magic weapon that could communicate - but he didn't have the corresponding spiritual root to control it, or, the magic weapon itself had already With master.

"It's not a magic weapon," the search and rescue team reminded Yanxiu, "it's a robot."

robot.

This is another completely unfamiliar concept, which sounds absurd and unbelievable.

The "robot" glasses in front of him suddenly glowed faintly, and then a voice appeared from inside him, but Yan Xiu didn't see his mouth opening and closing, as if his mouth was hidden in his stomach, the voice was rough and It's dull, but I don't know why, but it feels so familiar to my ears-but when I think about it carefully, I don't understand what these mean at all.

The search and rescue team helped him translate the entire text.

"He's asking you," said the search and rescue team, "do you still remember your community number?"

The number is a number, he probably knows it, but what does the community mean?

The robot spoke again.

"He is asking you, do you still remember the civilization you once belonged to?"

civilization?All Yan Xiu could do was shake his head.

The robot speaks for the third time.

"He asked you if you still remember any fragments of your life here, any fragments. Including but not limited to any form of poetry, music, games, or other information that can represent the scenes of life here."

Poetry, music, games... These words and sentences are like nails, once drilled into Yanxiu's mind, they can't be pulled out again, as if they just fit together with certain fragments in his mind—— But when he tried to capture it, he found that it was just a blank space.

At this moment, Yan Xiu felt that there were a lot of things accumulated in his mind, just like the flying sword when returning to the sword, it reached the highest speed, and it seemed that it could hit the enemy locked by the divine sense in the next second—— — But the next second, Yanxiu found that the enemy had completely disappeared.

When trying to capture those information again, Yan Xiu seemed to feel that the desire to confide in that moment just now was just some kind of illusion.

Yan Xiu opened his mouth, but in the end he only said, "I don't know..."

The robot shook its head slightly at him, and the meaning of this gesture was clear.Then he stretched out a hand, put it in front of Yan Xiu, and said another series of words.

"Are you willing to undergo a passive memory scan, which will help me determine your identity."

Yan Xiu hesitated.

The rescue team paused: "I think about agreeing, Yan Xiu."

Yan Xiu nodded.

The robot stretched out his other hand, completely wrapped the back of Yan Xiu's head, and then used the hand that was stretched out before to place it very close to his face. It didn't touch it, but Yan Xiu could feel it. , The hand in front of me is cold.

Yan Xiu widened his eyes, looked at the hand in front of him, but subconsciously thought of his own White Flood Sword—he suddenly felt that he understood the meaning of the so-called robot. His body was made of metal, without warmth and warmth. Breathe, but it's like a person.

After a few minutes, the robot withdrew his hand and he started talking, talking so much that the search and rescue team had no time to translate it for him.

Knowing that the robot had finished talking, Wu Xiaoqing turned his head and said to Yan Xiu, "Things are a bit complicated."

Yan Xiu could hear it, and he found it very difficult to understand the sentence by sentence translated to him before, and this time the long speech must be even more so—but he was still ready to listen to it.

"He said, you used to live here, so you will feel familiar with everything here."

"Then why don't I remember?"

"That's the problem," said the search and rescue team, "you've lived here for so long that you don't want to live here anymore, you want to get out."

Wu Xiaoqing pointed to the wall of the space station and said: "You feel that the life here is too depressing, and you want to go out and live a free life. So among you, someone suggested that you forget all the life here and change to a new life. way. And a lot of people followed suit.”

So far, Yan Xiu can understand everything.

But the next sentence completely shocked him and Wu Xiaoqing: "But those who have truly forgotten the past have become people in another world. Not only have they forgotten their past life, but they have also distorted their own They regard those who stay behind as people of a lower level—they call themselves immortals, and call others mortals.”

"There are fewer and fewer mortals, and more and more immortals. This became a trend and eventually swept everyone. After this, everyone chose to completely forget their previous experience as a mortal—they decided to live forever In the world of immortals, here, the world of mortals, has become a forbidden place."

It is still difficult for Yan Xiu to understand the last paragraph: "What does Mr. Wu mean? I don't remember my past, because the past me...don't want to remember?"

"That's what it means. But strictly speaking, it's not that you don't want to, it's that you don't want to-this is a collective behavior, and as far as you are concerned, you may have doubts about it-but you at the time did not insist on this suspicion .”

"In the end, all of you opted for amnestics and modification—from then on, all you remember is the fact that you are immortals, that you once belonged here, and forget about it."

"The reason why you feel familiar with this place is because all memories have associated data - some data that cannot be deleted is associated here - you don't need to understand this, you just need to know that the feeling in your mind is all It's an illusion, you can't remember it anymore. These memories are permanently erased."

Yan Xiu didn't know what to say.

He was once a mortal, but he forgot, totally forgot.What does it mean to forget?He couldn't figure it out, but it made him feel extremely confused and frightened—as if the whole world had completely changed at once.

"Although your memory no longer exists, there are still many fragments of your life in the community in the community information. According to the regulations of the community, you have the right to browse these documents." The search and rescue team said, asking Wu Xiaoqing to open it A menu on his watch, from which he found a large amount of data information just received, he looked at Yan Xiu, and then opened one of them.

is video.

In the picture, Yan Xiu was still in his teens, looking seriously at a screen in front of him in a room.The text inside is completely incomprehensible to Xiu, but the animation demonstration is very easy to understand.

What appeared on the screen was a galaxy with one star and three planets—Shen Changwen on the side became excited after seeing the translation from the search and rescue team—this is the history lesson of this civilization, and all the The content of the speech happened at the time of the video, more than 3000 years ago.

On the second planet, civilization and human beings were born. They lived very comfortably, because the entire planet had a large area and sufficient food. Even if they did not develop agriculture, they still lived well.But at this time, at an ordinary sunset, a large group of iron birds appeared in the sky, fell to the ground, and picked up people.

A robot appeared on the screen, exactly the same as the robot in front of them, telling people: "An opportunity to change your destiny is in front of you, choose it."

They were told that for the sacrifice of the earth and the sky, there would be infinite knowledge, endless life, and endless joy.Diseases and disasters will leave their lives forever, and each of them will have a long lifespan of tens of thousands of years.

They couldn't wait to agree. ——90.00% nine point ninety-nine, an absolute high vote agrees.

Then, a brand new life appeared, their entire planet was hollowed out, they lived in cities made of steel, received education, and knew civilization-such a life lasted for 3000 years.

This is the entire history of this civilization.From a primitive society, through a transaction, step into the galaxy era in one step.

But this does not mean luck. After the progress of the whole society, everyone realized what the cost of their leapfrog development was.

In the universe, matter is the foundation of everything.

They no longer have this foundation, and their stars and planets have all been hollowed out by human beings, turning them into fragile shells without the naturally occurring gravitational force.The developers only left enough energy for them to use for tens of thousands of years. After the energy is completely consumed, their civilization will inevitably decline.

"Secondary civilization," the search and rescue team said, "is probably the work of planetary developers... They always like to plunder a large amount of material energy in the name of trading in the universe. Before the 3zv era of crisis, this kind of behavior It has been judged by the search and rescue team to be a quasi-war act against civilization."

Looking back, everything is logical.In a desperate civilization, the better life is, the more unwilling it is.

A kind of resistance movement has been set off in the society - everyone believes that the current way of life is the life that the civilization that deceived them has ordered for them, and they need to completely change this way of life.

They don't want to eat here anymore!So the digestive system was modified.

They don't want to drink the water here!So a cooling condensate system was designed.

They don't want to sleep in the beds here!As a result, the mode of operation of the brain is improved, and sleep is not required.

And becoming the current trapeze person, leaving this world completely, is the final appearance of this kind of movement.All chose oblivion—foolishness was a far more acceptable option than endless regret and despair.
