Hao Zhi and Liangzi were sent to the city by the automatic flying car of polar Jihad and stopped at a random place. This search was supposed to be winding, but it was easy to find, but the result was not what he wanted.
The two got out of the car together. The flying car turned into the CHEHE River along the ramp and soon disappeared. Only the dense flow of people on the sidewalk flowed past the two standing people. Hao Zhi looked up at the sky as if he had lost his soul.
It's getting dark. The city is like a honeycomb lit up from the inside, shining brightly. This huge and complex metal jungle is as powerful as a rainbow.
Hao Zhi leaned over the railing on one side and looked down. At the foot of a few hundred meters, different space tracks cross the traffic flow horizontally or vertically, shuttling around the waist of the flowing high-rise buildings, like groups of busy fireflies.
Connecting each building is a crisscross overpass, long and complex, like the neural network of the city. Compared with the traditional closed buildings, there are many parking platforms outside the building in this era, and the balcony has become the gateway to and from each building.
He turned over, leaned against the railing and looked up. The sidewalk protruding outside the building just could see the whole picture of the whole building. The top half of the towering tower quickly narrowed in Hao Zhi's vision and inserted into the cloud like a sharp triangle. When he stared at the building carefully, he felt that the whole building seemed to be pressing towards himself, This forced Hao Zhi to quickly move away from his sight and look into the distance.
At such a high position, you should have seen the horizon, but the distant horizon is blocked by the same or higher buildings and separated into a discontinuous line. There is light cyan fog between the cracks of the buildings, which looks deep and distant.
Looking higher, it seems that it is just outside the atmosphere. The huge aircraft carrier spacecraft of the space fleet are crawling slowly in the earth orbit. Under the bright light reflection of the new moon base, the shape of those huge aircraft carriers seems to be clearly discernible. There are also aircraft shuttling on the moon ring around the earth orbit, which makes the otherwise peaceful night sky particularly busy.
A person standing here is like an ant standing in the reeds. He can only feel his smallness. This is the real future world, a more real world than the future world in any science fiction film he saw when he was a child, a strange world that seems to have nothing to do with him.
"Grandpa..." Liangzi looked at him bending over the railing of the high-rise building in a daze, thought he wanted to find something short-sighted, and whispered a worried word behind his back.
"Oh..." Hao Zhi slowly turned around and smiled at himself. I just want to see the world now. Isn't it beautiful? The earth civilization should have been like this. Many generations of hard work in exchange for today's fruitful results. Many people who did not leave their names in the history books have become the victims of laying the foundation. You can't say the makers of each brick, but their common name is human.
Suddenly there was a strong desire in his chest. The unbearable depression was unbearable. Hao Zhi brushed open the zipper of his coat, opened his chest to face the cold night wind, opened his arms to face the prosperous world and shouted: Xu zhe! Lin Tao! Professor... Did you see that? This is your dream of the future world, the Centennial plan of ZTE civilization. We have worked very hard!
All the people passing by him looked strangely at the man in the vintage military uniform, shouting and laughing, and then sat down slowly against the railing, like a toy with exhausted batteries.
Liangzi squatted down with a childlike smile on her face and looked at the crazy guy with tolerance. She didn't know where his emotions came from, but she could vaguely feel the powerful depression, the emotional explosion that only he could understand
At 11 p.m., they found a luxurious hotel in the center of Minsk industrial city and walked into the lobby. Two waiters immediately ran over: "Sir and madam, what can I do for you?"
"We want to find a place to live!" Hao Zhi said quietly.
"This is a luxury hotel..." one of the waiters glanced at their clothes. Liangzi is a rural girl from a small town. The texture of the clothes can be seen at a glance that they are not high-grade goods, let alone famous brands. Hao Zhi's ragged gray-green military uniform is the dress of a down-to-earth Hippie band in his eyes.
"I know how luxurious it is?" Hao Zhi heard the contempt in the other party's words and ignored him. He went straight to the broad front desk for check-in. The two waiters followed closely, as if they were a little unwilling that their persuasion had no effect.
A beautiful waitress stood up and bowed politely. Good evening, sir.
Hao Zhi touched the counter. The same interactive interface began to move. Three dimensional holograms of various rooms were presented one by one, and the price was marked on the upper right.
"How much is the most expensive room?" Hao Zhi asked.
"Oh, yes, we have to pay the security deposit in advance before staying. If you think it is appropriate, you can apply for a membership card. You can obtain lifelong membership by paying a one-time credit value of 5 million and enjoy a 30% discount on top suites. If you stay for more than a week, you can also pay half the price..."
"All right!" Hao Zhi impatiently waved his hand and rolled up his sleeves. "Give me two members. In addition, find a guide and take me to buy something."
Two members at a time. I met the God of wealth! The receptionist promised with a smile and quickly checked in Hao Zhi and Liangzi. The waiter behind him who didn't like them at first quickly gathered a big face. You need a guide. I can accompany you!
"Let's go, take me around and go shopping!" Hao Zhi slapped his sour old clothes, pulled up Liangzi around him and strode towards the elevator. The hotel building had its own shopping malls, cinemas and restaurants, which made Liangzi happy. The little girl in the countryside opened her eyes and suddenly came out with a grandfather of the God of wealth. She was not polite. When she saw beautiful clothes, Hao Zhi wore them and bought them, After a while, the waiter behind him hung full, panting behind him, like a walking Christmas tree.
Hao Zhi found a place to trim his hair and shave. By the way, he also bought clothes of this era. Clothes made of pure black nano materials are breathable and waterproof. The cloth is also very strong. The most important thing is to resist dirt, which means that water and soil are not invaded.
"Ah, grandpa is so handsome when he changes his clothes!" Liangzi looked at Hao Zhi who came out of the dressing room and couldn't help clapping his hands and shouting,
Hao Zhi smiled and looked at himself in the mirror, Grandpa? Yes, there are some fine lines in the corners of your eyes
