On the third day after arriving in Thailand, Lu Yao and Isabel took a flight back to China.
Song Shiyi made arrangements, so there was no need to worry about the formalities.
At that time, Song Shiyi felt it was a pity: "You are in such a hurry to go back? You haven't tried an authentic Thai massage yet. Why don't you go and see the Bangkok Cripso Ladyboy Show? They are really beautiful, and this can be reimbursed."
Lu Yao declined.
He prefers natural girls.
Compared to the big X cute girl's show, it would be more interesting to have Song Shiyi perform.
The most important thing is that he still has two important things to deal with, so staying here is half-hearted.
The person in charge, Zheng Tong, also expressed his understanding of this, and just asked with concern if he needed any help and if there was any trouble. Lu Yao said that since the rootless lamp matter here is over, he might as well go back.
Yang Jian exchanged mobile phone numbers with Lu Yao - work numbers of course, and would tell him as soon as possible if there were any new developments in Eye of the Void research.
…
Returning to his home after three days of absence, Lu Yao felt relieved.
Traveling at public expense may sound like a free-for-all pleasure, but the actual situation is not as easy as it seems, so I still won’t go there in the future.
After turning on the computer, Lu Yao started the simulator, pulled out the "Da Qin Fu Zhuan" from the item bar, and found "Zhao Zhenzhu, the Inspection Colonel of the Gongwei Department" from the famous post inside.
The long name post suddenly turned into a chat room.
[Huang Jia]: I want to meet Manu.
[Zhao Zhenzhu]: Wait a minute, I'll check the latest situation.
moment.
[Zhao Zhenzhu]: Manu is currently at No. 2 Huangliang Building in Xianyang City. He is currently stable and can be visited.
[Huang Jia]: It’s past now.
[Zhao Zhenzhu]: Let’s arrange it.
Waited for a while.
[Zhao Zhenzhu]: I have obtained the visit authorization document. I will wait for you at the Summer Palace.
…
After returning to Xianyang, the capital of the Qin Dynasty, Lu Yao found that the appearance of the place had changed again.
The last time I came here, there were workshops and factories everywhere, exuding a rough and heavy industry style from the era of large state-owned enterprises.
Nowadays, it has become prosperous and grand. Cross-ridge buildings with cornices and corners stand on both sides of the street. Residential buildings on the top of hard hills are stacked on top of each other, reaching more than thirty stories.
The high-rise buildings in Xianyang all use amazing wooden structures. There are long bridges connecting the upper floors. There are also light cylindrical rail trains in the sky, which can be used for landing and taking off of flying vehicles. People go up and down, and ride on various
Traveling by vehicle is very skillful and natural.
The entire city has become a complex multi-layered structure, but it has completely retained the traditional grand scale and overhead covered bridges of the Qin Dynasty. It can also be seen from the architectural style and population density that Xianyang now presents a vibrant and prosperous city.
meteorological.
Lu Yao noticed that there were two-person-high hexagonal iron towers built on the street, surrounded by a wooden fence. They kept a fixed distance from each other like street lights, and there was a bird-shaped piece of wood slowly moving on the top.
It rotates as if a bird is flying.
"This is Da Qin's [Beacon Tower]."
Seeing his interest, Zhao Zhenzhu immediately introduced: "There is a [stone core] made of omnipotent stone, which converts the power of regular turbulent flow through underground connections for storage and transmission. It has now been rolled out in several large buildings in Daqin.
In the city.”
"They can be supplied to all citizens for daily use when going out. Anyone can directly rent a beacon bird. The beacon bird can be used as a greeting card, can directly read name cards to contact people, and can also be used as a temporary wallet."
"The place where the Beacon Tower is located can be charged and used by investing "Da Qin Wan Coins" or "Mysterious Tickets". The money deposited in the Beacon Tower can also be used directly in many places."
She took out a black mysterious ticket, pasted it on a square area of the beacon tower next to it, and then pulled out a palm-sized iron piece shaped like a bird from the tree.
Lu Yao then noticed that the entire beacon tower was formed by inserting bird-shaped metal sheets like this, and the structure looked like a heat sink.
This thing is similar to a public mobile phone and electronic wallet. It is indeed a major upgrade of urban infrastructure.
Lu Yao couldn't help but sigh: "Mastering the transformation technology of regular turbulence, Great Qin will definitely become more powerful."
“After years of failed attempts, we are where we are today.”
Zhao Zhenzhen said with a smile: "The current situation always changes with ups and downs. Our country has been in a very difficult time before, but now we have finally received the rewards we deserve thanks to the collective work and hard work and hard work of the whole country united as one."
"
"On the other hand, Rome, I heard that it fell into an economic crisis due to the accident of the virtual mirror. I wonder if they thought that this day would come to them?"
Lu Yao nodded.
In the final analysis, there is always this risk as it is extremely dependent on external trade and its own production is fragile.
The prosperity of Rome came from all roads leading to Rome, and the decline of Rome also came from this.
"Huangliang Building A2" has thirty-six floors. It is a tall wooden building with a single eaves on the top of the mountain. Each floor can accommodate many patients.
The two took the elevator all the way to the top floor, and Lu Yao met Manu again.
Manu's appearance has not changed much. He has white beard and white hair, bags under his eyes, and is wearing a white hospital gown. He is sitting in front of an old table, sketching on white paper with charcoal, looking focused.
Lu Yao sat down next to him.
It wasn't until a painting was completed that Manu let go of the pen he was holding.
There is a sphere drawn on the paper, with a long rod on each side, and a complex structure of spirals, rhombuses and spheres on its surface.
He is still painting his own world.
Manu noticed Lu Yao next to him: "Who are you?"
"My name is Huang Jia."
Lu Yao said: "We knew each other before."
"Oh, do we know each other? My memory is getting worse and worse, and I basically can't remember anything in the past." Manu looked like he was trying to remember, but he still couldn't remember, and could only show a silly smile unique to an old man.
"fine."
Lu Yao said: "I just found something by chance and brought it to you."
He put something on the table.
The thing on the table made Manu's eyes suddenly widen. He grabbed it with a look of surprise and disbelief: "This is... my world? Why does it look so like my world? Is it a mold?"
In his hand was something exactly like the object in the painting just now.
It’s just that this is not a void world, but a gold-plated hairpin with a hollow metal in the middle and two long needles on both sides. The difference with most hairpins is that the hollow metal ball in the middle can move left and right, and any length can be selected.
hairpin.
"Did you do this?" Manu held the hairpin and looked at it carefully.
"No, I got it from a man named Zhanlak."
When Lu Yao met Zhan Le, he asked him carefully about his mother. Although Zhan Le had no memory of his father, as if the man had never appeared, he remembered his mother.
When Nonglan asked if there was anything left by her mother, Chamlatt took out the hairpin and said that she would take it away as long as she paid 7,000 baht (about 1,400 yuan).
The difficult life left Lao Zhanle with no energy left to miss anything. He needed money.
Lu Yao bought the hairpin because it looked exactly like Manu's painting. In addition, he also asked Zhan Le to pass on the group photo of him.
"and this."
He also placed the printed photo on the table.
Manu looked puzzled when he saw the woman and child in the photo.
"who are they?"
"It's Zhanlu's mother, his brother and sister."
Lu Yao talked about this family, the father who seemed to have never appeared no matter how he recalled it, and the current living situation in Zhanle.
Manu was stunned: "Is he my child?"
"I think so."
"But I can't remember anything, not at all. I saw this... photo of yours. I don't know any of the people on it. I don't know. I can't think of it at all."
The old man murmured. He opened the messy drawing paper next to him, pulled out a portrait of a faceless woman, and compared the photos and sketches.
"The portrait I drew looks very similar to her, but I can't remember it at all."
"I can't remember, I can't remember."
Manu grabbed his hair with his hands, a confused and painful expression on his face.
The forgotten person's memory will continue to disappear.
But as Song Shiyi said, muscle memory will be retained.
Manu grasped the hairpin tightly with one hand and did not put it down even when he grabbed the photos and portraits.
His past cannot be verified, and perhaps even the people who originally investigated him have forgotten his existence.
Eventually Manu will become a mystery with only a name left, disconnected and disconnected from everyone.
Lu Yao thought that according to the characteristics of the forgotten person, sooner or later he would forget Manu one day, so before forgetting, he would do his best to help him get back some traces of the past. The patients were helping each other.
"I'm leaving, take care."
Lu Yao stood up and left.
"Wait a moment."
Manu grabbed his hand: "Thank you, thank you."
The old man put his hand into his mouth and squeezed it hard, then took his hand back and wiped it repeatedly on his clothes, then unfolded his long and thin palm with interlaced wrinkles. On the palm was a sharp tooth.
"I don't have anything, please accept this."
Manu smiled so much that his upper gums, which had missing teeth, were exposed.
Lu Yao then discovered that Manu's two upper canine teeth were missing, and one of them was bleeding.
"Although I don't remember what it is used for, I can feel it in my body that it is useful. I only have two such teeth. One of them fell off at some point, and I give this one to you."
Lu Yao took the old man's tooth and put it away carefully: "Okay."
Manu suddenly said: "Be careful of mice."
Lu Yao was stunned.
The old man grabbed Lu Yao's hand, with a look of fear on his face: "I don't know why, be careful of them. Beyond the restricted area, be careful of rats!"
"clear."
Seeing that he agreed, the other party showed an expression of relief.
After leaving Huangliang Tower, Zhao Zhenzhen, who had been silently behind, said, "So you have found Manu's past."
"Just some fragments."
Lu Yao said.
But even if you just pick up some pieces, it's better than nothing.
"I didn't expect that Manu was once the [Anuta Dragon King]."
Zhao Zhenzhu said curiously: "It is said that the only two teeth on the upper jaw of the Dragon King are the most important weapons and tokens of the Dragon King. Giving them represents recognition. Through the dragon teeth, one can become the next Dragon King. But if the Dragon King does not take the initiative to give it to
, instead it will become a ferocious dragon curse."
Lu Yao then looked at the fang in his hand.
…
[Blood Successor Dragon Tooth]: The dragon tooth given by [Aunta Dragon King], the holder will be able to start the title trial.
【Bound】
…
In addition to this, information on the over-limit area was also obtained.
There are rats over there... and it looks like there are some lives living there.
There must be a reason for Manu's fear and fear of rats.
But Lu Yao was not worried.
Even if we want to explore the trans-limit area, it must be done by satellites.
Of course I was sitting at home, eating hot pot and watching the satellite live broadcast.
