The skyscraper buildings in Tiancheng City are like sharp swords, reaching into the sky. They are surrounded by mountains.
Halfway up the mountainside where the maple trees were dyed red, she sat on a bench by the lakeside, staring blankly at the familiar face in the water.
The woman in the water blinked her eyes, her beautiful eyes seeming to reflect the sadness of the years.
She gently touched the fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and a tear quickly ran across her white cheek, gradually falling into the clear lake.
From ancient times to the present, the shape of water has changed ever-changing. Whether it is the lake in front of her or the white snow on the mountain top in the distance, the softness and purity of water are eternal.
Life is short. A hundred years from now, without you, me or him, we won’t have much time to hate someone, nor much desire for power to enjoy all the prosperity!
This woman looks very young, wearing a white dress, like an angel who has fallen into the world! She is Han Yuting.
At this moment, she unscrewed the medicine bottle in her hand, and a white capsule fell into the pink mouth. After a short breath, Han Yuting sat on the bench, her face gradually becoming brighter and rosy.
"Meow meow..." Suddenly a dexterous mechanical electronic cat jumped up from the grass and onto the bench.
"Grandma, why do people become younger and younger when they grow up?" A cute little girl appeared behind the electronic cat, wearing virtual glasses and showing a bright smile.
"Baby Mingyue, in the era when grandma was in school, when people grow up, their faces will gradually age as they grow older!"
Han Yuting reached out and hugged her granddaughter into her arms, smiling happily: "And you live in a beautiful era. You don't have to worry about lost youth. Just like your mother, she lived to be forty. You can take elixirs to maintain your youthful and beautiful appearance and become younger and younger!"
"Well, I understand, why are you getting younger and younger than before!"
Mingyue opened her big dark and bright eyes, looked at her face carefully, and gently touched the fine wrinkles covering the corners of her eyes with her small hands.
"Everyone has a love for beauty. Grandma has developed a longevity medicine that can make everyone younger. It can promote the reverse growth of human skin cells. However, not all people are willing to take the longevity medicine to make themselves When they become younger, they are more willing to follow people's birth, aging, illness and death and let themselves grow old slowly!"
Han Yuting took off Mingyue's virtual glasses and motioned her to look at the beautiful nature around her.
"Grandma, I understand what you mean, just like Dr. Bryan, they chose to age naturally!"
Mingyue looked at the lawn in the distance and saw Brother Changhe and Brian playing golf. The corners of her mouth pursed upwards, revealing a knowing smile.
"In this era, we can enjoy youth and beauty, but we cannot choose between life and death! Once a person gets older, the organs in the body will age and die..." Han Yuting flashed melancholy eyes, dumbfounded. Staring blankly at the lake reflecting the skyscrapers in the distance, a sense of loss gradually filled her heart.
"Grandma, I have some good news for you!"
Mingyue picked up the cute electronic cat, caressed its back, and showed an innocent smile again: "In a few days, my father will return to Tiancheng City. Then let him spend more time with us and talk about Story on the Moon!"
"Well, my dear granddaughter, you are happier than your father!"
Han Yuting left the lakeside, held Mingyue's little hand, and boarded a red speed car. They flew towards the mist-shrouded bronze building.
In the super giant cube thousands of miles away, under the guidance of Supervisor Chi, Pan Tianming visited the prosthetic transformation factory. The huge building was divided into countless rooms. The mechanical arms in the room were giving instructions according to the big data instructions. Human bodies undergo mechanical grafting. ..
Under the operation of the simulation robot, the number of failed surgical transformations can be ignored.
Yang Zhou walked along the corridor to room JF-002. He and Yang Ying saw through the monitor at the door that Yang Zhou's brain and spine were completely removed and eventually implanted into a life-size mechanical prosthetic body.
After a while, the monitor switches to another
On the information interface, a peak-like electrocardiogram is stabilizing, indicating that the electronic heart has been successfully transplanted. In addition, the vibration map of brain consciousness located on the right side of the screen is like ripples of water, spreading out in circles. Yang Zhou's life status has passed the dangerous period of surgery.
"Don't worry, his vitality is normal!" Supervisor Chi checked the video window, smiled sweetly, and comforted Pan Tianming and his wife. "However, your father still needs to stay in the life medical room for a month before he can leave the factory and enter social activities!"
"Well, that's it. Thank you, Red Supervisor!" Pan Tianming looked at the mechanical simulator in front of him. Her eyes were dark and shiny, and her words and actions were very close to Ah Jiu.
"I've thanked you for your help during this period. Since that's the case, let's pick up dad again next month." Yang Ying was filled with gratitude and looked at Chi and said.
"Yes!" The red supervisor nodded and left the corridor on this floor.
Under nightfall, only Pan Tianming and Yang Ying were left in the corridor. They looked at the brightly lit city buildings in the distance and felt the brilliance of civilization emanating from the giant cube.
Then, a message broke the night. Pan Tianming looked at the virtual lens and a figure popped up, his expression became solemn. That person was Director Liu of the Earth-Moon Observatory.
"Tianming, the next Earth-Moon Radio Astronomy Symposium will be held the day after tomorrow. You should return to the moon as soon as possible!"
"Old Liu, why do you want to advance the date of the seminar? I still have..." Pan Tianming looked surprised. He seemed to have something to say, but was interrupted by Director Liu.
"Forty years ago, the LHSO observatory received a large number of super-energy gamma photons from the constellation Cygnus. In the space-time 1,500 light-years away from us, there may be a large number of supernova explosions, and there may also be more mysterious extraterrestrial civilizations. .....Moreover, recently, our lunar radio telescope has received super strong gamma ray burst signals from the constellations of Cygnus, Vulpecula and Aquila, spanning more than 10,000 light-years across the Milky Way starry sky. As far as our solar system is concerned, we may also be affected by huge interstellar changes, and we humans should make some changes!" Director Liu's expression was naturally calm, hiding his inner anxiety.
"Okay, I understand! Before returning to the moon, I will go back to the Bronze Sacred Tree to say goodbye to my mother!"
Pan Tianming took off his transparent glasses, looked at the bright moon on the sea, and took a deep breath.
The next morning, Pan Tianming arrived at the headquarters building of the Bronze Sacred Tree. Greeted by Dr. Brian, they took the skyscraper elevator through the clouds and arrived at the life sciences laboratory three thousand meters high.
"This independent biological research laboratory was built at your mother's suggestion. It's very cold here, and few people come to disturb Dean Han!" Brian hunched his back and showed a kind smile on his old face. .
"My mother, where do you want to lead the Bronze Sacred Tree?" Although Pan Tianming was the person closest to Han Yuting, he couldn't understand his mother's thoughts.
"Since the discovery of the plateau crypt space, your mother obtained the secret of immortality from the ruins of prehistoric civilization, making people today younger and younger. Later, with the support of the central government, the bronze sacred tree complex was built on this land , springing up like mushrooms after a rain. The foundation of the Bronze Building is about six kilometers long, directly passing through the thick rock formation, leading to the prehistoric cave world!"
Brian stared blankly at the end of the corridor, seemingly still immersed in the shock of discovering a new world, "Your mother seems to have said that if humans live long enough, they can leave this earth and go to the broader deep space of the universe. ! Therefore, the mission of the Bronze Divine Tree is to transform the human body so that we can adapt to the extreme environments of the center of the earth and space! However, this long life transformation experiment ultimately failed..."
Brian hunched his back and staggered forward. His old face was filled with too much loss because of Academician Han's failure.
Knowing his mother's wish, Pan Tianming became taciturn.
After a while, Pan Tianming came to the huge yellow wooden door and knocked on it a few times. A robot with a female face opened the door for her.
Pan Tianming walked into the room alone and looked around, seeing rows of vital instruments and pharmaceuticals on display.
The cabinets flashed with faint lines of green light, and some robots shuttled between the equipment, constantly calculating the experimental data on the screen.
"Dad, you are finally back!"
Mingyue ran over from the leisure hall next to her and jumped into Pan Tianming's arms. She opened her big bright eyes and complained with her little mouth: "Dad, when you come back this time, you must accompany us well! Don't leave again." Is it okay?"
"Okay! Mingyue, we are going to be together this afternoon!"
Pan Tianming put down his little daughter, walked straight to a quiet room, and came to his mother.
At this moment, Han Yuting was carefully observing a biological specimen under the microscope. When she saw Pan Tianming walking over, her fair and peaceful face broke into a smile of relief:
"You went to the Origin Body Conference. Did it go well?"
"I went, and I met Aunt Jiu at the party!"
When Pan Tianming saw that his mother's complexion was much better than before, he said with some surprise: "Mom, how come the skin on your face has changed so much?" "
"Gee, youth is only temporary, don't be surprised for me." Han Yuting touched her cheek and looked at her son's eyes. It was as if Pan Tianyi had returned to her side, and she felt a secret joy in her heart. . After being overjoyed, she looked at the different room and let out a long sigh:
"Tianming, I need to stay a few more days when I return to Tiancheng this time and spend more time with the children. They need your company!"
Pan Tianming stood there with mixed feelings in his heart, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer his mother's instructions.
This was just like when his father left them. There were too many choices and worries in his heart.
The bright red sunlight outside the window shines into the house, dyeing the bright wooden floor especially red.
"Mother... Mingyue is still young, please take care of me more! Tomorrow... I will go back to Guanghan City. We humans may have received signals from extraterrestrial civilizations, leaving them to earth civilizations. Time is running out!" Tian Minglu looked embarrassed, and then remained silent for a long time.
"Well, you go back to the moon tomorrow, and remember to make more video calls with your family!" Han Yuting nodded, then walked to the window silently, looking at the sea of clouds blankly.
"Mother, father... is back, and he shouldn't appear in Jufang City!" Pan Tianming looked at his mother's petite back and couldn't help but mention his father in his heart.
"Child, let go of the pain, he is your father after all!"
Tears streaked down Han Yuting's cheeks, and she stared blankly at the group photo on the wall, recalling every detail of her and Pan Tianyi's business start-up in Shanghai. "Life is short, and it is fleeting, and everyone will..." When I grow old, he and I will never see each other again in this life!"
The best thing in life is as beautiful as seeing it for the first time!
The huge sunset dyed the sea red, and a military helicopter slowly landed on the mountainside of Panlong Village.
