Ren Feng chuckled and shook his head.
"It should be the 64th time."
"You've forgotten, you also came to see it once when the fleet had just set sail."
The old man paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
However, the smile on his face looked particularly weak.
Ren Feng also noticed something unusual.
Compared to when he first went out, the old man's face gradually lost its color, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.
His heart skipped a beat, and he frantically brought up the playback menu and pressed the play button.
...
"Click".
The sound of the door closing came from inside.
The lights then went out.
The huge room was pitch black, with only the faint scent of earth and grass in the air.
suddenly.
Light shone from all around the room!
With the combined effect of dozens of holographic projectors, a huge blue planet appeared before the two of them.
With just a pause, the azure planet rapidly expanded.
In just a few seconds, the scene before my eyes changed completely.
Blue sky, white clouds.
A small village.
The village is small, with only a few dozen households.
The village is surrounded by dense forests.
Directly in front of them, where the two were standing, was a flat grassy area.
The realistic grass inside the room elevates the realism of the images to a whole new level.
Even though he had seen the same content countless times, and even though he knew perfectly well that this was a fictional scene, Ren Feng still felt a brief moment of disorientation as he looked at the village with its rising smoke.
"This is where I used to live..."
An old man's trembling voice came from the side: "I remember, the first building on the left is Old Zhang's house."
"The building next door belongs to the Qi family."
"..."
Ren Feng nodded in agreement with the old man's words.
For the past 64 years, he has accompanied his grandfather to a holographic cinema every year.
And each time, the old man uttered almost the same words.
There is no other reason.
This scene was filmed in his hometown.
The scene progresses slowly.
Suddenly, the door of the first house on the left opened, and a little girl with a ponytail ran out.
Following closely behind was an elderly man with gray hair.
"Haha! That's Zhang Man, the daughter of the Zhang family!"
Perhaps because he had seen an old friend, the old man became a little more excited: "If I remember correctly, that young girl is working at the Academy of Sciences now, right?"
"Hahaha……"
The old woman took a deep breath, raised her wrinkled right hand, and wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes: "I wonder how she felt seeing this scene..."
In the holographic image, the door of the house next door slowly opens.
He was also an elderly man with gray hair.
Unlike his previous sixty-three movie viewings, this time, Ren Feng watched with utmost concentration.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke for the first time during the movie: "Grandpa, is this the Lao Qi you were talking about?"
The elderly man in the wheelchair glanced at Ren Feng with surprise.
He was clearly somewhat surprised by Ren Feng's questioning.
But then, the old man's smile deepened.
"Yes, that's Lao Qi."
"Back then, I had a very good relationship with them."
Ren Feng hesitated for a moment, but in the end he couldn't suppress his curiosity.
"Then why didn't you go to find them after you arrived at Proxima Centauri b?"
"..." The old man's eyes dimmed slightly.
"because……"
"They voluntarily gave up their chance to escape."
As they spoke, in the holographic image, two elderly people with gray hair were already sitting under a big tree at the entrance of the village, playing chess in the shade.
"this……"
Ren Feng's breath hitched: "Why give up?"
"Because this can increase the chances of future generations escaping successfully," the old man murmured to himself, "even if only by a tiny margin."
As he spoke, he struggled to raise his hand and steered his wheelchair forward.
Seeing this, Ren Feng quickly stepped forward, wanting to offer some help to his grandfather.
But he was stopped by the old man's determined gaze.
Gradually, the old man arrived at the stone table under the big tree.
At this moment, the three elderly people with gray hair seemed to have completed a reunion across time and space.
Ren Feng stood there, stunned, watching the smile gradually spread across his grandfather's face.
He tried to open his eyes wide, attempting to etch the scene before him into his mind.
Time slips away, bit by bit.
The holographic projection gradually dimmed and then brightened again.
The first act of "View of the Earth" has ended.
But the elderly man in the wheelchair remained in place, without making any movement.
Ren Feng's heart trembled, and hot tears involuntarily slid down his cheeks.
He quickly brought up the playback control menu, ended the holographic projection, and ran to the old man's side in a few quick steps.
Breathing stopped.
Ren Feng sat blankly on the muddy grass, tears streaming silently down his face.
This time, he no longer complained about the slightly damp soil in the grass.
...
After handling his grandfather's funeral arrangements, Ren Feng returned home in a daze.
Looking at the familiar surroundings and thinking about how she was all alone, tears welled up in her eyes once again.
"Xiaofeng."
A familiar voice rang out.
Ren Feng suddenly raised his head.
It is a holographic image.
In the holographic projection, my grandfather, sitting in a chair, had a big smile on his face.
