Gu Xingmiao finally left the infirmary safely.
With the school doctor looking at the two people in disbelief, Gu Xingmiao was taken away by 01.
After getting on the private transportation in the main city, 01 looked at her for a long while before saying, "That explains it."
Gu Xingmiao didn't expect 01 to be so anxious, and now he wants to know the answer.
The floating spacecraft moved quickly in the main urban area, and its final destination was Gu Xingmiao's home.
"Teacher, why don't we talk about it when we get back?" She blinked, her attitude softening. "Talking in the car might not be as safe as we think."
01 Dingding glanced at Gu Xingmiao and agreed.
"When will the sun be repaired?" Gu Xingmiao was not used to the dark night, and the school doctor said that the sun had been under repair for several weeks.
Humans still need sunlight.
Even if it's false sunshine.
If the night continues, I am afraid that more and more human psychological problems will worsen. The night not only hides crises, but also brews greater crises.
Gu Xingmiao didn't feel at all that she had been lying in the medical cabin for three whole days. Time passed very quickly while she was sleeping. Even though she was already on her way home, she still felt it was unreal.
Looking at the futuristic buildings around me and seeing the robots in different forms, I was reminded of the scenes in my dreams and the places where I lived in the past...
Where exactly is reality?
"The Engineering Department should be working on it, but the exact timeline is uncertain." 01 glanced at the darkness outside and said calmly, "This time, the strangeness has descended even more violently than last time. More and more areas in the main city need repairs..."
"There is also an engineering department?" Gu Xingmiao said in surprise.
"Of course." 01 looked at Gu Xingmiao with a half-smile. "Who do you think repaired these things? It can't be just robots, right? Robots also need humans to train them."
"But pollution doesn't prevent the spread of knowledge, so why are there no restrictions on technology in this area?" Gu Xingmiao was simply confused about this aspect.
“It’s different.”
The main city looked lifeless, without any happy programs. Although 01 didn't know if the human world was like this, he knew that the human world many years ago was definitely not like this.
A human world that could produce such a prosperous civilization would definitely not be the lifeless world it is today.
"Gu Xingmiao, do you know what the world was like before the Great Dark Ages?" 01's voice was a little soft.
She knows it too well.
The booming Chinese society in the 22nd century and her hometown where she lived an ordinary life after returning to modern life were phantoms with gradually deepening flavors in her memory.
Even at the mere mention of it, countless memories flooded back into her mind: the various street food stalls hawking in the streets and alleys, the local specialties she could still enjoy even though she was far away in the university town; even the university thesis that had given her such a headache at the time, yet the peaceful university life...
It wasn't like studying in college nowadays, where you really risk your life for it.
All the fluctuating emotions seem so vivid.
Unlike in the future, everyone has a huge mental illness hidden beneath their vivid emotions and cannot withstand the slightest stimulation.
This is truly an era where everyone is mentally ill.
Don't laugh at anyone.
Gu Xingmiao easily caught different emotions in 01's eyes.
Could it be that 01, like Yuechuliang and Qi Buyan, had also entered the dungeon during the Great Dark Ages?
Otherwise, 01 would not have asked such a question.
People in the past don’t know what will happen in the future, while people in the future constantly pray for the past to come back in the pollution, constantly reviving the memories and scenes of the Dark Ages, and searching for the truth from those fragments.
Time and time again, I touch them across the distant time and space and read those extremely vivid memories.
"I haven't entered such a copy yet, so I don't know." Gu Xingmiao just said so.
"I've been to one of the copies of that era..."
"Humanity back then was truly different from humanity today..." 01 sighed softly, "If the strange things hadn't appeared, humanity might have always been so happy and peaceful."
"Of course, it's impossible to enter the interstellar age so quickly."
Everything has its pros and cons, but given a choice, no one would like to be forced to leave their homeland and develop high technology.
"I know that you and Qi Buyan went to the ancient Earth exploration copy to find a copy of the Great Dark Age." 01 said as if he had insight into Gu Xingmiao's thoughts.
“Many people want to find the entrance.”
Gu Xingmiao was surprised.
But she didn't hear other classmates discussing the news about the Great Dark Age copy. She only heard it from Qi Buyan.
"That's because many people have died, so you naturally can't hear it." 01 said in a light tone, his drooping eyes hiding all emotions.
"Are all those who know the truth dying quickly? Or are only people in the past who have discovered the truth?" Gu Xingmiao asked.
These are two completely different concepts.
"Most of those who knew the truth couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide." 01 tilted his head and saw the serious expression on Gu Xingmiao's face. He suddenly smiled, "Why? You also want to explore the truth? Even though you know many people died on the way to explore the Great Dark Age."
She thought Gu Xingmiao would not answer, but after she finished speaking, she heard Gu Xingmiao's firm words.
"yes."
"I want to know."
"I want to know what happened at that time, teacher. Are you one of the survivors who went to that copy?"
Gu Xingmiao spoke the truth firmly.
01's eyes trembled slightly, and his heart, which had long been calm, seemed to be stirred up by layers of faint ripples.
"Many people want to know, but even more people choose to escape out of fear after learning about the dangers."
As she spoke, she stood up and gradually approached Gu Xingmiao, trying to force back the girl in front of her with bright eyes, who seemed like no resistance could stop her from moving forward.
01's head was close to Gu Xingmiao. The distance between them was no more than 20cm. He could even feel the other's breathing, so close and rapid.
She just said cruelly, word by word: "Gu Xingmiao, what kind of courage do you have to think you can hold on?"
"Do you think you are the most special one?"
"One more human being in this world won't make much, and one less human being won't make much either."
At this time, the hovercraft also slowly stopped and docked.
