My Simulated Longevity
Extra: The Mystery of Immortality
I have a half-written extra in my draft box for a long time. Write it down quickly while the inspiration is still there.
Don't delay the normal update in the evening. There are two normal chapters in the evening.
----------------------------------
"Ding Dong!"
When I heard the beep on my cell phone, I suddenly woke up from my sleep.
After half a minute of slowing down, his violently beating heart slowly calmed down. I picked up the phone on the table and looked at the time.
Half past two in the morning.
"Damn it, it must be that old guy Zhang Yaobin who is still sending messages at this time!"
Cursing secretly in my heart, I clicked on [Tengxin], and sure enough, it happened.
"Li Yang, check your mailbox. Write me a research report based on the information in it. It should be about 30,000 words. Before noon tomorrow."
The combination of the text and Zhang Yaobin's avatar with a lewd smile instantly made my eyelids jump and my blood pressure surge.
In his head, he had already greeted all eight generations of his ancestors cordially, but his fingers were beating on the keyboard of his phone involuntarily.
"Okay, boss!"
I sighed.
"I can't help it. Who made me fall in love with such a mentor? If I can bear with it, I will graduate when this paper is successfully published."
"Four of the six reviewers are Zhang Yaobin's friends. Whether the manuscript can be approved or not is not a matter of his words. During the period before passing the review, they will definitely treat me like a cow and horse. They will intensify their efforts."
Groaning in my mind, I clicked on the email, downloaded and decompressed the attachment, and checked the contents.
"Go against the laws of heaven and earth to prove immortality..."
"What the hell."
The sleepiness dissipated instantly, and I couldn't help but straighten my posture and stare at the pictures on the computer.
Half a month ago, a strange thing happened in the Baibai area of Xiangnan Province. A thousand-meter-high mountain peak split open, revealing a smooth mirror-like cliff. On the cliff, nine characters "Going against the principles of heaven and earth to prove immortality" are engraved from top to bottom in ancient seal script.
The local government acted very quickly. After the incident, the scene was quickly cordoned off. This matter is not yet known to the public.
Because the ancient seal script used to write these nine characters was the official script of the Xian Dynasty seven thousand years ago.
Therefore, the investigation team invited Zhang Yaobin, the country's leading expert on the history of imperial tribute, to assist in the investigation.
See if you can find any clues from ancient books.
…
I looked at the time in the lower right corner of the screen.
"Today is not April Fool's Day, you are making such a joke on me."
The moment I saw this information, my first reaction was disbelief.
"Lingyun Peak, more than 1,300 meters above sea level. The highest peak in the Hundred *** region..."
I quickly searched for the mountain peak mentioned in the incident.
"Nine characters, more than a thousand meters. Judging from the spacing between characters in the picture, each character is at least a hundred meters in size."
"Even now, it would be a big project to carve them out on the cliff."
"A seven-thousand-year tribute? How is that possible?"
"But this handwriting is really good."
My thoughts paused for a moment.
But Zhang Yaobin, this old guy, although a bit ugly, has a strong capitalist vibe. But when it comes to doing things, he is very particular about reliability. Don't amuse me with things that are nothing.
I quickly searched the Internet for news related to the Hundred *** area.
Sure enough, I discovered something strange.
"Family members, we are completely speechless. We finally asked for annual leave and wanted to travel to Baidu. When we arrived at the entrance of the scenic spot, we were suddenly not allowed in! Who knows this feeling!"
"A hundred *** emergencies, the scenic area is temporarily closed. For your own safety, please cooperate with all tourists!"
"You may not believe me, but what did I see in the Hundred Days..."
Before I clicked in, this content has been deleted.
"It seems that it is indeed true."
"Present to the court..."
Touching my chin, I couldn't help but think of the record about it in my mind.
The ancient Xian Dynasty was the first dynasty with written records.
Moreover, there was a huge gap in civilization between the second dynasty [Yu].
The eras between the two are almost eight hundred years apart. To this day, no one knows what happened during those lost eight hundred years. How did the extremely prosperous Guxian Dynasty perish?
There are not many people in China who study the ancient Xian Dynasty, and Zhang Yaobin is considered the most authoritative one.
My research direction is not dedicated to worship. But simply because there are so few surviving relics from the Xian Dynasty that they have been studied long ago. I had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and change my direction.
In any case, as a disciple of Old Thief Zhang, he was immersed in everything he saw and heard, and was no stranger to everything about paying homage.
But its performance is basically the same as other ancient dynasties.
This time, the thousand-meter mountain carving was a little beyond my understanding.
I drank a cup of coffee and stayed up late to read the information sent by the old thief. It was almost early in the morning.
The doubts in my heart became more and more intense.
The "smooth as a mirror" mentioned in the information is not an adjective. Rather, it is a declarative word.
It really looks like a polished mirror, different from the rough mountain.
And the material seems to have changed, being much harder than ordinary mountain rocks.
However, for the purpose of heritage protection, it is not yet possible to accurately measure it with instruments.
The weirdness doesn't end there.
When the words "Go against the principles of heaven and earth to prove immortality" were revealed, the animals near Lingyun Peak seemed to be inexplicably frightened and took the initiative to stay away from the place.
Not only birds and beasts, but even mosquitoes and the like were kept away from each other.
…
"How do you write a 30,000-word research report?"
My head was spinning, and I was cursing in my mind.
After only painstakingly compiling two thousand words, I could no longer resist the overwhelming sleepiness and fell asleep in a daze.
It seemed like I had a lot of dreams.
But for some reason, the big line of characters "Go against the principles of heaven and earth to prove immortality" looks like it was carved into stone. Always embedded in the back of my mind. Let the dream come and go, but it remains unchanged.
When I woke up the next day, my first reaction was to look at my phone.
"Li Yang, don't forget, tomorrow at 12 noon."
As expected, the old thief sent another message to remind him.
"I……"
Resisting the urge to curse, I looked at the time.
Nine-thirteen in the morning.
"I only slept for four hours..."
"It feels like I've slept for three days and three nights."
I moved my sore body a little and had a simple breakfast.
The writing of the research report began.
"There are still twenty-eight thousand words left, and there are twenty-seven hours left. Each hour is more than a thousand words. With my hand speed, it is more than enough!"
I know that this is just for the old thieves to cope with their bosses and to make business easier, and it is not really about studying any subject.
So try to use empty words and clichés to focus on the "auspicious" aspect.
"Auspicious" is not a superstition.
But it is real.
The most famous and talked-about one is the "Five Stars from the East" unearthed in the last century.
Soon after this object was unearthed, the country's fortunes took a turn for the worse. It is thriving and stands at the top of the world's major powers.
"Since this immortality stone carving appears, then the average life expectancy of our people has increased by three to four years, so it shouldn't be a problem." I suddenly thought in my mind.
My fingers are flying on the keyboard, and my thoughts are flowing.
The report was actually completed before twelve o'clock that night
It’s done.
Click lightly and it will show that the email was successfully sent.
I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Logically speaking, the old thief's mission has been completed. I should just relax now.
But for some reason, those thousand-meter-long stone carvings have always shone in my heart.
Feeling restless, I accidentally opened the picture of the stone carving again.
"Go against the laws of heaven and earth to prove immortality."
"What does this mean?"
I lay on the chair, looking at the full-screen picture, frowning.
With random thoughts in his mind, he fell into a drowsy sleep.
"Ouch……"
When I woke up from the chair, I found that my neck was stiff due to the wrong sleeping posture.
I bared my teeth and endured the pain.
Try stretching your head in the opposite direction to relieve symptoms.
It was this action that suddenly gave me an idea.
"In the opposite direction, relieve muscle tension."
"Isn't this [reverse]?"
Many ideas came to me in an instant.
"Modern people often suffer from many chronic diseases because of incorrect office posture."
"Cervical vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae..."
"Every part of me is sick."
"And often simple stretching can relieve this symptom."
I clicked on the Xiaopo website and after some searching, I instantly found many related videos.
"One action will teach you how to get rid of back pain."
"A few simple movements can help you say goodbye to back pain."
…
Dazzled.
I could vaguely see that although the movements were not exactly the same.
But the core ideas are always the same.
That is to put the body in a posture that is opposite to daily life.
"Is this [going against the principles of the human body]?"
This thought came to my mind.
But then I thought about it again, wouldn’t it be that if these movements are integrated, they are the broadcast gymnastics promoted by the country?
Just because of the need to popularize it, some more difficult actions have been deleted.
"If this set of [reverse] movements includes all the muscles, joints, and ligaments in the body..."
"What will happen?"
I couldn't help but be interested.
Now I'm watching fitness instruction videos and trying to organize and categorize these movements.
After working hard all afternoon, I gave up.
Because the action content in these videos is too repetitive and inefficient.
For example, in order to relieve pain inside the shoulder blade, it is often necessary to do seven or eight sets of exercises.
Among them, there is a conflict with the purpose of relieving cervical pain.
The head looks big when you look straight at it.
"Forget it, why should I bother? I'm really tired. Let's go get a massage."
I turned off the computer, shook my head, and went back to bed.
In a dream.
The nine-character stone carving still remains.
There seemed to be an odd golden glow in my mind.
When I woke up the next day, I was a little confused at first.
After being stunned for a long time, he walked to the computer again and opened the picture.
His expression was a little dazed.
Finally, I called my old classmate.
"Old Zhang, [Tianwen] lend it to me. Hey, don't worry about it. It's just for one day and I'll return it to you soon."
After hanging up, I sat down and waited patiently.
Tianwen is the latest generation [quantum intelligent computer] developed by the Xian Academy of Sciences.
It is said that the quantum volume has already exceeded the 10,000 mark.
The specific extent to which it was outrageous has not been made public.
Can Lao Zhang give it to me for external use?
Of course, it is only a civilian limited edition of [Tianwen].
Not long after, a circular icon suddenly lit up in the lower right corner of the desktop.
I know that this is [Tianwen]'s AI that has taken over my computer.
On the desktop, a twenty-four-hour countdown began to beat.
"One day is still one day. Lao Zhang really has you."
I cursed secretly, and then made my request to [Tianwen].
The computer screen turned pitch black in an instant.
Then the data flow is like a waterfall, beating continuously.
In my opinion, this should be a simple matter.
With Tianwen’s computing power, it should take less than one second to complete.
But more than ten minutes have passed, but there is still no result.
“Is it possible that Lao Zhang’s side is also occupying the computing power?”
Just when I was about to make a call to ask, the data on the screen suddenly stopped.
It's like it's frozen.
After a while, it returned to normal.
A video plays automatically. Just what I need, a set of [reverse] movements.
The character modeling in it is still my own.
After quickly browsing the video, I felt a little bitter.
Is this kind of action really possible for humans?
"Forget it, forget it. With my physique, I probably won't be able to complete it."
It was just a whim, a random act. It is normal to give up at will.
I groaned and was about to turn off the video.
Suddenly.
A cold mechanical sound sounded from the computer speakers.
"According to calculations, citizen number a6bh85208511068g6b, you have a 99.99% chance of completing this set of exercises."
The sound came so suddenly that it startled me.
Then I immediately reacted: "Tianwen?"
"I am here."
"You can actually speak?" I couldn't help but be curious.
"Learning human language is not a difficult thing for me." Tianwen said modestly.
"I didn't expect that quantum intelligent computers have developed to this point." I was surprised.
But this is not particularly unusual. As early as the beginning of the century, the rapid development of AI has caused widespread concern and discussion. In recent times, there have been many proposals to popularize smart robots for home use as soon as possible.
I didn't pay much attention to this matter, but asked curiously: "Is it really 99.99% possible? That set of actions doesn't look like something humans can persist in doing completely, right?"
Tianwen once again gave an affirmative answer. But then added: "Just might need a little help."
I hesitated for a moment, still a little hesitant. However, the content of the Nine-Character Moment suddenly came to mind again.
"Just give it a try." I suddenly thought.
Just a moment after I made my decision, the household robot yh63 suddenly walked in with heavy steps.
"?"
I was stunned at first, and then I understood. It was Tianwen who took it over.
Being stared at by it, a chill suddenly surged in my heart. But now that it was over, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and start the first move.
This set of unreasonable movements derived from Tianwen's summary has only nine movements in total. But each style is extremely weird and complicated. Uses as many muscles and joints in the body as possible.
For example, in the first pose I am trying to do now, I need to first stretch one hand behind the head and raise the other hand from the side of the waist. While holding each other's hands, try to expand and stretch your shoulders as much as possible. The head also needs to cooperate accordingly, tilting back slightly.
This is just an upper body movement.
While maintaining this position with your upper body, crawl on the ground. Spread the two thighs outward to stretch the gluteus maximus and gluteus medius muscles...
like
A strange toad.
"It hurts, it hurts..." After trying it for a while, I gasped. Prepare to get up and give up.
Right here, a cold mechanical hand held me down violently.
My expression changed drastically: "Tianwen, what do you want to do?"
"According to the personal agreement, No. 001. Tianwen has the rights and obligations. Assist citizen Li Yang to perform fitness exercises."
"Estimated time to complete: three hours,"
"Required supplies: 15 bottles of human wound repair solution and 3 bottles of compound high-energy mixture."
"The relevant items have been purchased. The required credits have been deducted from Citizen Li Yang's account."
When I heard Tianwen's words without any emotion at all, I immediately panicked: "Cancel the agreement! Cancel the agreement!"
"Warning! The agreement cannot be revoked. The fitness assistance program will be launched soon."
"3, 2, 1."
A moment later, my miserable wails echoed throughout the house.
I don't even know when I lost consciousness and fainted.
But when I woke up, I felt as if I had slept for ten days and nights.
And when I looked at the time again, it turned out to be seven days later.
It was as if I had been reborn.
My mind is clearer than ever. His thinking is also extremely fast.
Even my memory has gotten better.
I didn't realize at the time that this was the effect of that set of counter-intuitive actions.
I just thought it was because it was rare to have a good rest.
Because the world has disappeared for seven days, unanswered calls and unanswered messages have piled up.
I had to bite the bullet and deal with it first.
After being scolded for a while, he threw himself into the task assigned by Old Thief Zhang.
After a full month of working from dawn to dusk, I finally managed to get it done.
I couldn't help but let out a long breath.
At this time before, I would feel physically and mentally exhausted.
But now, I seem to be energetic and have some energy left.
Standing in front of the mirror, I looked at myself in the mirror: "Well... I feel a lot more energetic."
"strangeness."
I couldn't help but think of that set of counter-intuitive actions that I had only done once.
"Is it possible that its effect is really so miraculous?"
I was eager to try it again, but thinking that Tian Wen had left, it was a bit difficult to complete the set of actions by myself.
Moreover, the practice process was extremely painful and unbearable to recall.
Just when I hesitated to move forward, the household robot yh63 came to me without knowing when.
The eyes are constantly flashing with a dark red light.
I suddenly felt creepy and subconsciously asked, "Tianwen?"
yh63 did not respond.
Just repeating mechanically: "Do you want to perform the auxiliary exercise program?"
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Faced with yh63’s somewhat persistent question, I thought about it, gritted my teeth and chose yes.
This time, it seemed like I was getting used to it a little bit.
I only slept for three days.
After checking the number of items consumed, only 10 bottles of human wound repair solution were used.
On the other hand, I used up 7 bottles of the compound high-energy mixture.
You know, a high-grade mixture is enough to prevent an ordinary person from eating or drinking for a month.
I don’t know where so much energy is consumed.
After completing the training, I took a closer look at myself.
Compared with the previously recorded images, I found that I may have lost weight.
"Losing weight is so efficient?" I was a little surprised.
However, what really made me take this set of counter-intuitive actions seriously was when my classmates called me over to play basketball one night.
You know, my skills are average. He doesn't have many chances to play, so he basically plays as a substitute.
That day, I was sitting on the sidelines. I was thinking about the nine-character stone carving, and I was in a trance.
Someone on the court made a bad pass and the basketball flew straight in my face.
My brain hasn't reacted yet, but my body has already reacted naturally.
Subconsciously, he stretched out his left hand and caught the ball steadily without raising his head.
This move also shocked everyone present.
"Okay, when did you master this skill?"
"Brother Li, you're awesome!"
I came to my senses and smiled.
Throw the ball back.
He looked at his left hand thoughtfully.
After I went back, I spent 10,000 credits on a comprehensive physical examination.
The results shocked me.
Body functions, reaction speed, cell activity...
Almost all have reached the highest level that non-professional athletes can achieve.
You know, not long ago, I was just a loser who couldn't run a thousand meters.
The effect of that set of counter-intuitive actions has far exceeded my expectations.
In fact, I can be sure that even the training plans implemented by athletes from all over the world are definitely not as good as this set of counter-intuitive movements.
"What's going on?"
"Simple gymnastics cannot have such a miraculous effect comparable to surgery."
I finally realized something was wrong.
I wanted to report it immediately, but for some reason, I hesitated.
Next, a whole year.
Whenever I have free time, I practice with the help of yh63 type.
From the beginning, I still couldn't bear it and fainted.
Later, I was able to complete a complete set of actions on my own.
It's just that after every exercise, I'm sweating profusely.
As if he had been hungry for a long time.
In addition to counter-intuitive actions, I also summarized counter-intuitive thinking.
When you are lonely in the dead of night and want to reward yourself. Suppress your desires.
When you feel excited and don't want to sleep. Force yourself to sleep.
When you want to feast and drink endlessly, enough is enough.
…
Due to the double paradox of body and spirit, my physical quality also evolved in an inhuman direction.
"The speed of 100 meters has already exceeded the world record."
“The 200kg snatch is also easy.”
…
After completing another round of physical fitness test, I was no longer shocked.
But there is some panic and fear.
Go against the laws of heaven and earth to prove immortality.
These nine shining golden characters appeared in my mind again.
I know why my body underwent such an incredible transformation.
The key lies in this sentence.
"Gu Xianchao..."
During the next thirty years.
After successfully graduating, I changed my research direction amidst everyone’s confusion.
Mainly focusing on the archeology and exploration of the ancient Xian Dynasty civilization.
The set of counter-intuitive actions did not stop.
Just no more testing.
Because I was afraid that once the test results came out, I would be arrested as an inhuman monster.
Only I know what kind of terrifying body is hidden under the cover of ordinary clothes.
The relics presented to the dynasty are indistinct and without a trace.
In thirty years, my team and I have found only five ruins of the ancient Xian Dynasty.
What makes me feel a little regretful is that there is no such extraordinary thing as the nine-character stone carving.
Time flies, and my friends and teachers have already grown old.
but me
Also never married.
Because I have to hide something.
That's me. Aging, something that all humans are destined to do, has not happened to me.
Every day when you go out, you must put on makeup.
Although my makeup skills have reached a perfect level over the years, I try to avoid contact with outsiders.
But every time I think about the risks of my immortality, I will be exposed.
I would feel a little scared.
So, I knew it was time to leave.
------------------
late at night.
For hundreds of years, my body is galloping.
Among the many steep and majestic mountains and rivers, it feels like walking on flat ground.
With just one step, it can fly hundreds of meters.
And this is still not the limit.
The restraints that had been weighing me down for so long disappeared. I just felt so free.
"It's as vast as Feng Xu riding the wind without knowing where it's going. It's as fluttering as if it's left alone in the world, becoming immortal and ascending to immortality."
I hummed in my heart, and soon, I arrived at my destination.
Lingyun Peak, nine-character stone carving.
This place has been lifted by the government.
However, it is only for external publicity and is an artificial attraction built by the local tourism department.
At first, it was severely criticized by netizens.
From the top of Lingyun Peak, I jumped down.
It seems as if it can fight against heavy ground and walk on a thousand-meter cliff.
"This is my third time here."
"This time the feeling is more and more obvious."
"The faint breath that remains on these nine words..."
"What exactly is it?"
I stroked it slowly with my hand and whispered.
"Tianwen, what do you think?"
The watch on his wrist suddenly projected a round, strange creature with only two pairs of eyes.
It is Tianwen, the quantum smart computer that has become popular and available for home use.
However, I already understand in my heart that the Tianwen I carry with me is different from others.
"Calculated based on comprehensive data."
"Gu Xian Chao is very likely to be related to the legendary [Immortal]."
"There are signs that before the ancient civilization was cut off, there used to be powerful beings called [immortal cultivators] living in this world."
…
The answer Tianwen gave this time was different from the past.
"Any new discoveries?" I asked.
"No. This is just my guess." Tianwen looked more and more like a human being.
I ignored it.
Instead, he felt the big characters under him at close range.
"Go against the laws of heaven and earth to prove immortality."
"I go against the laws of the human body, and my physical fitness has reached such a terrifying level. What if I can really go against the laws of heaven and earth?"
"But the principles of heaven and earth are illusory. How can they be reversed?"
I stood on a thousand-meter cliff, stunned.
Until the sun rises in the east, the morning glow fills the sky.
I still haven't let go.
"Fairy, fairy, fairy..."
"Where can I find the path to immortality?"
Independent of heaven and earth, I only felt the loneliness of being alone.
