Chapter 86: lonely
What is the feeling of having an extra soul?
Very awkward.
But you can't communicate, you can't get rid of the spirit, and you can't win the opponent, so what should you do?
Of course, let her go, what else can I do.
Lin Ke never thought that he would be tailed one day...
It's really hard to ignore each other if you care so much. With a tall figure and fluffy long hair that drags the floor, it doesn't feel like Disney's Rapunzel at all, but like a hairy monster. And it's a hairy monster that's taller than him.
Although there are no footsteps, no breathing, it will not disturb yourself, nor will it hinder your daily life. ...But this way, it seems more terrifying.
If it weren't for the lack of courage to scold the other party, the eighteenth generation of ancestors would have invited them out to greet them. But in front of him, Lin could only touch his nose and continue to ignore.
Because of being stared at by others, he dared not put some relatively secret work on the table for others to see. So I just do some normal work and maintain the original tower magic program.
The girls also talked less. The original lively and joyful atmosphere in the magic tower became a little tense and treacherous after the return of a certain Lord Demon King.
This night, the night of a single month. Apart from the stars and the Milky Way in the sky, there is the eternal Gudalana moon hanging high in the sky.
Lin observed the stars and began to calculate and define the distance, using the old-fashioned method in astrophysics, of course. The only concern is whether the observed values are correct or not. On the contrary, the calculation aspect is not a big problem.
The computerized magic tower, if it is purely calculated, is already quite mature. At least after several years of adjustments, the recent calculation results have been consistent with manual calculations, which can be regarded as trustworthy.
It's just that the user interface is neither beautiful nor convenient, and there is still a lot of room for improvement. However, the importance of work in this area is very low, and it has not yet been officially scheduled for work.
Although it is said to start calculating astronomical data, the actual work is just writing program codes for calculation formulas. As long as the program code is changed, different calculation results can be obtained based on all the observation data. Then this calculated number will be reflected in Lin's specially made star map.
The specially made star map is actually the map of the mysterious star system arranged by the light ball of the bright light technique before the six-star astronomical event. Expand it to include other observed stars. That is to make the original flat star map three-dimensional, and introduce programmed calculations.
In the flat version of the star map, Lin finally recorded 1,983 stars. These are objects that need to be brighter than a certain level and that are easy to see with the naked eye. With the astronomical telescope as an auxiliary means, Lin never thought about continuing to increase the workload of manual operations.
After importing the automatic calculation of the program, the whole work content is different. Import data, design formulas, export calculation results, and present them on the three-dimensional star map. Lin is now putting a lot of energy into improving observation methods and data input and output. Instead, I really calmed down and had less time to look at the starry sky.
But these days there is an extra big follower, and those homework that requires meditation and concentration can't be done. So Lin picked a very important job, but it has not been started for a long time-mapping the starry sky of the earth.
From the vast universe, how to locate the position of a star?
Whether staying on the earth or Midi, the planet itself is the best reference. As long as you have a little idea of the planet's magnetic field and the mountain environment on the surface, if you tell others about the Southwest Peninsula of the Lost Continent, or the Guna Mountains in the central region, others will quickly understand what they are talking about.
But there are no absolute coordinates to refer to in the universe. You can only use the starry sky that can be observed in your location as a relative reference to define your own position.
So how to find the earth?
The method Lin thought of was to complete the three-dimensional star map with Midi star as the reference point, then randomly select other stars as the reference point, and flatten the three-dimensional star map again. As long as the familiar eighty-eight constellations appear, it means that the earth has been found. Or to be precise, find the sun to which the earth belongs, the haunted home.
Behind this calculation, in addition to the confirmation of the distance of the stars, another major difficulty is time. As we all know, the starlight projected on the planets belongs to the stars that are several light-years to tens of billions of light-years away according to their distance. It means that the starlight that can be observed on the planet is the cosmic memory of several years ago, or even tens of billions of years ago.
That is to say, in order to obtain the correct star position map, it is necessary to consider the changes in time. To switch to the new star of the observation reference point, another conversion is required. And the more conversions, the bigger the error...
As for how to go back, that is another question.
To complete the comparison, the precondition is to have a starry sky map belonging to the earth.
Since the time travel, the memory about the earth is extremely clear, and will not be forgotten due to the passage of time. So don't say that the eighty-eight constellations observed from the earth, and even information such as their brightness and modern definition, are clearly kept in my mind.
But it was never drawn. This is not unimportant, I am afraid it is some kind of feeling of being close to home. until today.
Constellation is a way to help memory, so when Lin drew the star map belonging to the earth, he unconsciously connected the stars. Even though it's online, I can't help but draw images of all the constellations. Pegasus, swan, dragon, fairy, phoenix, and the signs of the zodiac.
It's funny to say that the reason for letting myself be fascinated by the stars in the sky is a certain manga by a certain Che Tian. Unexpectedly, my future was completely covered by that set of comics, an otaku with a doctorate in astrophysics. It never occurred to me that one day I would have to rely on these two skills to find a way home.
Thinking of this, Lin sighed. Suddenly, a voice came from behind, with a magnetic and pleasant voice, intermittently asking: "Why... why... do you... watch... the stars every... night...?"
Looking at the Lord Demon King who was asking the question in surprise, what she said was not the incantations used by magicians when they chanted, but Aramaic, the most widely used language in human society and the world of magicians. Although still not fluent, Lin also didn't want to dwell too much on someone's language talent. replied:
"Looking at the starry sky is because I want to observe and map out the appearance of the sea of stars."
"why?"
Looking back at a certain Demon King. Those charming eyes were shining in the hair. Comparable to the brightest star in the sky, it attracted Lin's mind. Is this charm magic? Or simply being nostalgic.
Lin opened his mouth to talk about things that he had never revealed to others. "You know there are other worlds besides Midi."
"Abyss... Star Realm?"
"It doesn't refer to those. It's a world that is very similar to Misty Land, but without elves, dwarves, gods and magic."
"Then... the original?"
"No, I wouldn't use primitive to describe that world. It has science, which allows people to fly at high altitudes, and even land on the moon; it allows people to submerge thousands of feet in the water, without needing to surface for years; and it can carry It is an instrument that moves people at a very fast speed. Perhaps the extreme performance can only be used by a small number of people, but the vast majority of scientific products can be used by anyone, no special magical talent is required, and no need to spend a lot of money Time to meditate. It also has many things that you can't imagine. Its purpose is not to survive, nor to kill more efficiently, but to enrich your soul. Everything that is beautiful is far beyond the world of Lost Land possessing."
"How...could...could...there...that...such...place."
"How is it impossible? Maybe that world also has a dark side, war, and famine, but that is my home. The place where I was born and raised. So, I sympathize with you.──"
The sudden change of subject made Tikal a little uncomfortable. He is obviously talking about this man's own affairs, how can he involve himself, and still sympathize? Just looking at him with deep eyes, looking at the starry sky, seems to be nostalgic, but also seems to be emotional.
"──Resurrected after a thousand years, there are no friends, not even enemies. The familiar world does not exist. Listening to people talking in unfamiliar languages, looking at this scene that is not similar to the memory, this feeling, It's lonely. I get it, I get it, because I'm lonely too."
Lin Xu clenched his fists and looked into the depths of the sea of stars. "Of course, I'm not saying that if I'm on the earth, I have friends or enemies. But even without these, my life is still satisfied. Some people will laugh at us for being addicted to the world of the second dimension, but I also want to laugh They have to spend money to make milk powder and coax their wives and girlfriends. On the earth, I am just a nobody, and I am a fat house in the eyes of some people, but I already own the whole world, and they don’t know it. There are too many things there It makes people worry,—”
He spoke Chinese, which he hadn't spoken in more than ten years~www.readwn.com~ Lin spoke again, a little difficult and intermittent, but everything he said was from the bottom of his heart. And the more you talk, the more slippery you are. '──I want to watch the video of Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss again. How many new episodes have I missed? How many generations have Dragon Quest and Space Warriors gone? What's new about Mario? What's next for the Marvel Universe? What happened to the Empire and the Jedi, did the Sith's chrysanthemum explode? Has the DC movie universe risen up, or was the master crushed and rubbed on the ground by Iron Man? Did the five-star story end before Yong Yehu died? Anno Hideaki brought out Evangelion again, is there something new? And my collection, my comics, my D-slot...'
Suddenly a certain man stood up and shouted towards the sky: "Which **** have I offended, do you need to exile me to this world where birds don't lay eggs?" Just tell me to die, and I will hate you less. Who did I offend? Alamuni Avalokitesvara, any great **** is good, let me go home. go home…'
The excitement was only for a moment, when the tone of a certain man became lower and lower, and finally only sobs remained.
Perhaps the series of Chinese is still an unfamiliar language to a certain former demon king who has just learned to understand Aramaic. But she can understand the emotions in Lin's words, and even empathize with them. The inexplicable impulse made her hug someone who was squatting down and crying, feeling each other's body temperature, heartbeat, and everything that could be felt.
Maybe the reasons are different, but having the same loneliness means having the same vulnerability, and they happen to be one male and one female. The two embracing each other naturally asked for each other and communicated on a deeper level.
