Annihilation of the solar system

On the way back, Zhou Cheng didn't say a word, he just stared at a certain place in front of him with his eyebrows downcast. Qingwen glanced at Zhou Cheng from time to time, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to speak.

.

At this time, Zhou Cheng suddenly turned his head and looked at Qingwen. His eyes were wide open, and his furrowed brows were filled with anxiety:

"Do you think our universe is really completely random and intelligence appears by chance?"

After finishing speaking, the anxious look on Zhou Cheng's face gradually turned into embarrassment, and he turned his head away.

"From the motion state of microscopic particles to the isotropy of the macroscopic universe, our universe may indeed be dominated by random probability." Qingwen's answer made Zhou Cheng's eyes light up.

"Have you studied physics and astronomy?"

Qingwen's face was full of smiles and she nodded slightly:

"People of every era have more or less romantic feelings towards the stars and the sea."

Zhou Cheng looked up and down at this woman with extraordinary appearance and extraordinary temperament.

"It's a pity that in your era, there are very few people who can still yearn for the starry sky like you." Zhou Cheng lamented.

Qingwen looked at Zhou Cheng with her big and exquisite eyes and said:

"This is your time too, you will fall in love with it."

Zhou Cheng laughed sadly:

"Yes, I can only stay in this era."

The innocent smile returned to Qingwen's face:

"We will return to the Eternal City soon. Let's go have lunch first. We are all hungry."

The spaceship stopped on the lawn in front of a Baroque-style manor. The exquisite sculptures and strong colors made the building look as beautiful as a palace. The interior decoration was extremely luxurious, and every piece of furniture was extremely unique.

Sophisticated, melodious piano sounds float in the air, adding a bit of elegance to this splendor.

Qingwen took Zhou Cheng to sit down next to a bright French window. She gestured on her bracelet, and a holographic image appeared on the table. She pushed it with both hands, and the image came to Zhou Cheng.

"Professor Zhou, please go ahead."

Zhou Cheng looked at the dazzling array of pictures and was a little overwhelmed. Qingwen smiled playfully and pulled the image back to her.

"You are not familiar with the trial of the Wanwuwang system yet. Let me order this meal for you and see if I can guess what you like to eat."

Zhou Cheng nodded and looked around. The space of this restaurant is not small, but there are only a few tables and chairs in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, and there are only a few people dining there. A 3-corner rack is placed in the center of the hall.

On the piano, the performer was playing a melancholy piece of music. Zhou Cheng recognized it as Chopin's "Nocturne".

The soft notes surged under the interlacing black and white keys, as if the air was rising and falling with the scales. Zhou Cheng was unknowingly intoxicated by it. When the rest came quietly, Zhou Cheng felt as if he was coming from a scene.

When I woke up from a peaceful dream, my fatigue also eased a bit.

After the song ended, the performer did not bow, but stood up, straightened his tuxedo, and left the restaurant. After a while, a strong roar of an engine came from outside. Zhou Cheng looked around and saw that the performer just drove the car.

A red supercar drove away.

"Oh no, do you still have such a car in this era?" Zhou Cheng asked in surprise.

Qingwen raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a bit of pride:

"Of course, that Enzo is a rare work of art no matter what era it was in."

Zhou Cheng looked at the direction the sports car was leaving and nodded lightly:

"It seems that the income of artists in this era is very high."

Qingwen laughed playfully:

“Hahaha, after molecular synthesizers and artificial intelligence were put into large-scale use, the shackles of the financial system that had bound the human soul for thousands of years withdrew from the stage of history.

Now you can get anything we can make, and you can remove any place we can reach outside the security zone. And all of this, you don't have to pay anything."

Zhou Cheng was stunned. Although he found it unbelievable, he felt an inexplicable sense of comfort. He quickly adjusted his state and asked:

"Is the security zone large?"

Qingwen smiled and shook her head:

"I don't know much about the small areas, but there aren't many, such as the location of your previous medical cabin. But there are only two large areas, the l4 point of Saturn's orbit, because there is a primordial black hole there. The other one is the moon. Of course,

You can't go even in the sun because it's too hot there."

After Qingwen said the last sentence as a joke, she laughed to herself. When Zhou Cheng heard the word moon, his heart made a "boom" sound. In Qingwen's silvery laughter,

The red rain of fire rising into the sky appeared before his eyes again, as well as the shuttle trailing the swaying smoke tail between the fire and white shadows.

Zhou Cheng struggled to pull his thoughts away, he did not dare to face that moment. Even though 649 years had passed, for Zhou Cheng, it happened yesterday.

"Professor Zhou, what's wrong with you?" Qingwen's gentle voice pulled Zhou Cheng out of the whirlpool of memories.

Talk app—

"Nothing, nothing." Zhou Cheng said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

At this time, the automatic robot served the dishes. Zhou Cheng was surprised to find that it was a plate of Chinese dishes, and the dishes were also his favorite ones.

He excitedly picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, and Zhou Cheng's silent tears were shed as he swallowed the food. This was the taste he had most often eaten at home, but things were already changing across the dining table.

Qingwen handed over a tissue and said nothing, just looked at him indifferently. After Zhou Cheng took a few deep breaths, he decided to face the place that he didn't want to face but couldn't get around. He raised his

To start with:

"Why can't we go to the moon? Is it because there is a naked singularity deterrent there?"

Qingwen frowned slightly:

"I don't know about this. The moon does not belong to the Earth Federation, nor does it depend on the earth's industry. They have their own system. I guess you would like to see it, so I have submitted a visit application to the moon through the Earth Federation Council.

But we haven’t received the approval yet, so we may have to wait a while.”

Zhou Cheng nodded lightly and breathed a sigh of relief as if he had escaped a disaster. The beautiful and caring woman in front of him also dispelled some of the melancholy in his heart.

He glanced around the restaurant, trying to divert his attention. However, he found that almost all of the few diners in the restaurant were alone, and there was a touch of sadness in their lowered eyes.

"In our era, only couples would come to this kind of restaurant. Now, it has become a bachelor party." Zhou Cheng half-jokingly said with emotion.

Qingwen burst into laughter, with a bright smile on her face:

"Professor Zhou, the era you have experienced is really interesting, but now there is no concept of lovers."

Zhou Cheng was shocked and put down his chopsticks:

"There are no lovers? How can we form a couple and form a family?"

Qingwen stopped smiling:

"In fact, the concepts of husband and wife and family gradually disappeared seven years after the human labor force was completely liberated. In an era of backward productivity, the family is the most solid pillar of society.

People are busy making a living, getting sick, and dying in the cages they have created. Children need to be nurtured, men need to be comforted, women need to be protected, and the elderly need to be supported.

People's lifespan is short and their abilities are weak. They have no opportunity or conditions to realize and satisfy their true self. In such a society, family is the only haven where the soul can rest.

But now, with the help of molecular synthesizers and artificial intelligence, the high walls that once surrounded us no longer exist, and the once strongest pillars have no meaning in their existence.

Just like ancient humans needed to chew rough food and evolved wisdom teeth, but in the era you lived in, wisdom teeth needed to be removed. Today’s families are the wisdom teeth of the past.”

Zhou Cheng was greatly shocked, but he could not argue with it, because the new society described by Qingwen had greatly exceeded his understanding and imagination.

"What about the child? What to do with the child?" Zhou Cheng asked.

Qingwen said with a touching smile that seemed to be born with her:

"At the age of 25, adult men and women will have to fulfill one of the few obligations in this era, which is to provide sperm cells and egg cells to the neonatal center. They will be fertilized in a simulated real environment, and then in the simulated uterus

From embryo to baby.

Artificial intelligence will raise them under the most ideal environment until they are 6 years old, and then the children will complete their studies in schools of all levels. After the age of 20, they can officially enter society and begin their 500-year indulgent life."

"At least there is school." Zhou Cheng murmured to himself. He originally had questions, but he couldn't say anything. He just glanced at Qingwen and then looked away.
