Chapter 136 The Day Code Fell in Love (6)

Unfortunately, the escape pod could not bear the weight of the two people and was about to fall. They could not reach the previously set safety coordinates, but fortunately, they successfully made an emergency landing on the nearest planet.

The escape pod fell into a ruin with smoke. After a while, the hatch was pushed open from the inside. First a girl climbed out, and then a boy holding a small flower pot.

Bai Yao coughed because of the foul smell around her. Looking around, there were all kinds of garbage piled up like a small mountain. Almost immediately, she guessed that this was a garbage planet.

Human beings will dump garbage on some planets that have no usable value. The good news is that this planet has an atmosphere and oxygen suitable for human survival. The bad news is that there is no signal on this planet.

Bai Yao couldn't even use the bracelet to locate herself, let alone ask for help from the outside world.

She had a headache and felt upset.

Negative emotions can easily infect people. Shi Jiu stood beside Bai Yao. He didn't dare to make any sound, let alone say a word. He just tried to be quiet and reduce his presence as much as possible so that she wouldn't see him and feel more irritated.

He has always done this.

When someone needs him, he will go over and say a few words obediently to let others know that he exists.

When others don't need him, he will try to make himself a transparent person.

He always remembered that he should not let others forget him completely, nor should he let others think he was noisy.

Bai Yao put down her hand and sighed deeply. Shi

Jiu knew that he should walk out and take all the blame on himself. Maybe if he behaved a little better, she would not abandon him so easily in the future.

Shi Jiu took two steps forward, "I'm sorry, I..."

Bai Yao: "Okay, let's go that way!"

Shi Jiu was interrupted by Bai Yao's energetic words. He looked in the direction of her finger, then turned his gaze back and looked at her blankly.

Bai Yao said: "There should be garbage ships coming here to dump garbage every once in a while. We just need to wait a little longer and we will be saved, but now we have to find a safe place to rest."

Looking around here, there is nothing but garbage and yellow sand. A lot of garbage is buried underground by thick sand. Obviously, there is a sandstorm on this planet.

If they don't find a safe place first, they will have nowhere to escape when the sandstorm comes.

In the direction Bai Yao pointed, you can vaguely see the hills. That is the only shelter you can see from here.

She took out her backpack from the abandoned escape capsule. This is what she ran back to the room to get when she realized that the situation on the spaceship was not good.

Shi Jiu said, "I can carry things."

Bai Yao glanced at him. He was covered in dirt. He might not even know that his face was stained with dust, especially around his eyes. The dirt marks were more obvious because of the condensed and falling mist.

The boy was holding a small flower pot in this garbage-strewn environment. He looked more fragile than those scrapped parts.

Logically, any normal person would not have the heart to let him carry things, but Bai Yao has always been a little abnormal.

She decisively handed the beige backpack to him.

Shi Jiu held the backpack, and he frowned. Finally, a smile appeared on his nervous face, and his tense body relaxed slightly.

She was willing to let him carry things, which showed that she would not abandon him casually.

Bai Yao said, "Let's go."

The road was not easy to walk on, and they often stepped deep into the sand. Fortunately, Shi Jiu was tall. Although he looked thin and weak, he was very strong. Several times when Bai Yao was about to fall in, he lifted her out with one hand.

Although there was yellow sand everywhere here, the temperature was not high.

Bai Yao raised her head and could see the sun. They had left the solar system, and the sun they saw was naturally not the sun they saw on Earth.

The sunlight from this sun was not that warm.

She was worried that the temperature on this planet would drop sharply at night and it would be very cold.

Slowly, they got closer to the hill.

Shi Jiu said: "There is a cave there."

Bai Yao and Shi Jiu walked over quickly. There were traces of artificial excavation at the entrance of the cave. This was not a naturally formed cave. The temperature was even lower when they walked in.

"May I help you?"

The sudden voice startled Bai Yao. She dodged back, stepped on a stone and stumbled. A strong hand grabbed her arm.

Shi Jiu said: "It's a synthetic human."

Sure enough, there was a figure lying in the corner. It was not quite right to call it a human. Half of the artificial skin on his face fell off, revealing the metal skeleton inside. However, due to its age and lack of maintenance, the metal skeleton was rusty.

Not only that, one of his forearms was broken, with bones and wiring exposed at the fracture. Half of his body was also broken, with bones exposed. He leaned against the corner of the wall, unable to move, with only his mouth still making sounds.

"May I ask if I can help you? May I help you? Yes, what, what can I help you with..."

Shi Jiu said: "The seventh generation of the D series domestic synthetic man was replaced by the latest E series domestic synthetic man ten years ago."

This synthetic man was obviously scrapped a long time ago. He was thrown here as electronic waste. If his body parts lacked maintenance, he would automatically shut down and enter standby mode.

Because he sensed that there were humans, he would automatically turn on and perform his duty of helping people according to the set program.

But after all, so much time had passed. He only turned on the machine for two or three minutes, with a blue light flashing in his eyes, and soon there was no movement at all because of the exhaustion of energy.

The cave suddenly returned to silence.

Bai Yao looked around, and saw only dilapidated synthetics that barely had human form.

She suddenly understood the reason for the birth of this cave.

These discarded synthetics were thrown into this planet, and the synthetics that were still able to move walked here step by step and dug out a cave here. They hid here to avoid sandstorms, and then slowly "died" due to aging equipment.

Synthetics are not humans, but their behavior, which is similar to huddling together for warmth, is not as simple as machines.

This place is regarded as a garbage dump by humans, and it is also their cemetery.

Bai Yao's eyes fell on Shi Jiu.

He was looking down at a synthetic human on the ground.

Because of the damage, the "gender" of this synthetic human had been identified. All that could be seen was that its belly was very big. Before it "died", it was still protecting its belly, as if it showed the "glory of motherhood" belonging to humans.
