I just want to retire quietly

Two hours had passed, Tan Yan calculated the distance between here and the teleportation point, and it would take at least an hour to run back at full speed.

He only had an hour and a half left, and it was impossible to wait until Liang Xian absorbed the crystal nuclei of all the zombies to defeat the virus and leave together.

He couldn't bring Liang Xian back.

Tan Yan doesn't know what to say, promise me to come see you next time when I'm "empty"?That kind of promise is too general, he never expects tomorrow, so he can't say it.

But he really couldn't bring such Liang Xian back to the real world, whether it was for the people in the real world or Liang Xian who needed the zombie crystal core.

A sense of powerlessness came to his mind, he really couldn't do anything, he couldn't save the cat, he couldn't stop the "hole" from spreading, he couldn't save the people in the subway, and he couldn't save Liang Xian.

Power... is really useless.

Liang Xian seemed to see Tan Yan's thoughts, leaned his head on Tan Yan's body, and said softly: "Don't put all the responsibility on yourself, the earth is not yours alone."

He opened his eyes and looked up at the sky. The zombie world prevented people from carrying out heavy industrial production. This lasted for more than a year, but it made the sky clear.In the real world, city B is smoggy all the year round, and it is impossible to see such bright stars.

It's really nice to lean up and look at the stars with the one you like.

The starry sky is like a bottomless vortex, which will suck in all people's thoughts, and make people feel their own insignificance.

In the vast universe, human beings are really... too small.Human beings are to the universe smaller than an electron is to human beings.

"These days, when I am awake, I often look up at the stars, and every time I think, what is the end of the world?" Liang Xian said in a low voice.

Tan Yan listened to him quietly: "Have you noticed that when the 'void' continues to spread, the surrounding objects and even the space will be sucked in, logically speaking, only humans come back from the teleportation point, these sucked objects did not follow You entered the teleportation point together, but why as long as we go back, the absorbed space will also go back?

In the last days we have encountered, whether it is the magma world, the disappearance of the atmosphere, the melting of glaciers, the stop of the earth, or the recent parasitic world and zombie world, in these worlds, is the earth destroyed?Has the universe disappeared? "

"No." Tan Yan replied.

"Yes," Liang Xian smiled, "The first few worlds can be said to be the end of all living things on earth, but the last two, no matter parasitic monsters or zombies, are only for human beings. In fact, even if the earth disappears, , the universe still exists. The so-called 'end of the world' has always been defined by human beings themselves."

"What we have been trying to save is ourselves." Tan Yan patted his head, "I still think so much at this time."

"Thinking more helps to maintain rationality," Liang Xian rubbed his head against Tan Yan's neck, and sighed contentedly, "I think Qiao Zhixue should have analyzed the problems I just thought of, but he has been I didn’t say anything, for fear of causing panic.”

"Why?" Tan Yan was puzzled.

"Didn't we analyze why the transmission of the 'void' is one-way? The conclusion at that time was that the end of the world is a world that has collapsed, and our world is intact. The pressure makes the 'void' only one-way transmission.

But according to my thoughts just now, the last days are just the definition of human beings themselves, and have nothing to do with the universe and the world, so where do the so-called collapse and pressure come from? "

Following Liang Xian's analysis, Tan Yan gradually forgot the frustration and powerlessness, and thought, "Could it be...human beings?"

"Maybe it's possible, but not necessarily." Liang Xian, who didn't know that Tan Yan was determined to be with him, took the opportunity to hug Tan Yan's arm. Anyway, he is weak now, and Tan Yan must not have the heart to push him away. Try to get closer.

"Then guess where the so-called 'hole' and the 'loophole' in the border of the world come from?" Liang Xian asked.

Tan Yan thought for a moment, then shook his head decisively: "I can't think of it, you should explain it, you are smarter."

"I guess, it's the world." Liang Xian shook his head. "Or, the earth is also conscious. It has discovered that the continued existence of human beings is very likely to destroy itself, so it uses the trajectory of the Rubik's Cube to continuously push humans into other worlds. A world where humans are extinct."

He raised his hand, looked at his right hand that was missing three fingers in the dark night, and said quietly: "I once gave a piece of information on increasing grain production to people in other worlds, because I sympathized with them in the last days. But in fact ... We are also the end of the world, and the 'empty' is the form of the 'end of the world' in the real world.

I guess, there must be a period or limit for the 'void', and the 'void' will stop when all the human beings on the earth enter other worlds, or when the earth thinks that time is enough.

Without you, the earth would have been extinct 40 years ago. At that time, Minister Yu and his mother were not yet married, and I could not even be born. "

"I'm not that great." Tan Yan shook his head.

Liang Xian knew that Tan Yan always thought of himself as an ordinary person, and people of his generation believed that the power of the collective was greater than that of the individual, so he stopped praising him, but continued: "Do you really think I should go back?"

"Huh?" Tan Yan looked at Liang Xian suspiciously. He could hear what Liang Xian meant. It wasn't that he didn't want to return, but that he shouldn't.

Seeing his expression, Liang Xian knew that Tan Yan didn't fully understand the series of analyzes he had just done, so he straightened up and looked into his eyes and said, "I just said that the earth is rejecting humans. If this assumption is true, then unless humans Find other planets suitable for living in a short period of time, and large-scale immigration, otherwise it is impossible for people to make the "empty" disappear. The end of the world has already begun, and it cannot be stopped.

What if one day the earth is full of 'holes', which may appear anytime and anywhere 24 hours a day, and not two, but ten, twenty, one hundred, or 1?Soldiers and police alone cannot save everyone!

And really at the last minute, I'm still here. "

Liang Xian put his hand on his heart: "There is only one percent of the people left in this world, which can fully accommodate the residents of the real world. Instead of finding a new planet, I will immigrate the people here after killing all the zombies here. Isn't it better?"

Tan Yan just patted his head.

"What's wrong?" Liang Xian, who spoke passionately, was a little at a loss, why this expression?

"That's something in the future, I don't know how long it will be. The 40-year 'empty' is just a transfer from Ping County to City B. What you imagined may not be realized in the next hundred years. Do you want to stay here forever?" Tan Yan asked road.

His words left Liang Xian speechless, Tan Yan understood the meaning of time better than him.

Tan Yan asked again: "Do you think that I will feel uncomfortable if I leave you here, do you make excuses for me? Just throw you in this world as a coordinate and tell yourself that you are still fighting side by side with us, and I will fight with you." Are you able to go home in peace?"

"I..." Liang Xian didn't know how to respond.

Tan Yan is indeed not as smart as Liang Xian, not even an ordinary college student, but at this time, why can he accurately read people's hearts?

"Hurry up and defeat the virus, come home with me." Tan Yan said softly, "You once said that my ability is enhanced, and when I hoped that you could awaken the ability with a strong consciousness, you will be awakened. So now I want you to get back to normal, can you do it?"

He looked at Liang Xian, his eyes seemed to say, can I share my strength with you?

Liang Xian, who didn't know that he had been kissed by Tan Yan in his sleep, raised his face, pointed to his own face and said, "If you can kiss me, maybe you can..."

He looks forward to Ai Ai, like a child who wants candy.

Tan Yan smiled slightly, and planted a kiss on Liang Xian's profile.

Liang Xian's heart was beating violently. He squeezed Tan Yan's hand with his intact left hand, and said nervously: "Hey, you kissed me on the initiative. When I can really go back, don't renege on your debt."

He spoke very nervously, and even the sound of his heartbeat became louder.

"Plop", "Plop"!It beats once every three seconds, very powerful, and Tan Yan felt that he had never heard a better sound than this in his life.

Perhaps, he is not without feelings for Liang Xian, even if he only occupies a small corner in his heart, Tan Yan still likes Liang Xian very much.

It doesn't matter if it's his love for the younger generation, or love.

So he took the initiative to kiss Liang Xian's forehead again, and said softly, "I'll wait for you to return to the real world."

"Eh?" Liang Xian rubbed his forehead blankly, his usually shrewd look completely disappeared, "Wait for me to go back, what are you doing?"

Tan Yan just smiled and didn't answer.

It's not that he didn't dare to repeat to Liang Xian what he had said to Xiao Lu, but that he didn't feel the need to express it now.

Let's have fun together when we get back to the real world.

"Hey, if you don't talk so ambiguously, even if I become a zombie, I won't give up!" Liang Xian stared at Tan Yan and said.

"Then come to me." Tan Yan patted himself on the chest, "I'll always be waiting for you."

Liang Xian felt his face was hot, he covered his face and asked, "I, am I blushing?"

"En." Tan Yan nodded, blushing cutely.

"I don't even know how to grow hair, but now I'm blushing?" Liang Xian asked in surprise.

The heartbeat seems to be faster, is this the power of love?

No, no, maybe Tan Yan's ability really took effect, enhancing his consciousness.

Maybe he really has hope to overcome that consciousness and follow Tan Yan home.

"Wait for me!" Liang Xian hugged Tan Yan, "I will speed up and stop slowing down! The next time you come from the 'empty', it will be the time when I return to the real world."

"What if the 'holes' appear continuously?" Tan Yan asked.

"Uh... this..." He really couldn't do it so quickly!

"Then I'll come in to accompany you." Tan Yan looked at the embarrassed Liang Xian, and rolled his eyes with a smile.

He has promised to accompany Liang Xian, so he will definitely keep his promise.

Liang Xian felt that his heart was about to jump out. He really wanted to know if Tan Yan meant that, but Tan Yan refused to say, and he felt uncomfortable.

Be sure to go back soon!

Time always flies by, and in a blink of an eye Tan Yan has already spent three hours in the zombie.

Can't really stay for three and a half, he needs to prepare enough time to enter the "hole".

Without saying any more promises, he waved goodbye to Liang Xian and ran away quickly.

Although he was left in the zombie world again, there must be a day when we meet again.

Tan Yan was not afraid.

The author has something to say: -End of the first volume-

Cough cough cough, I know this chapter is a bit short, but there is nothing I can do about it, Tan Yan and Liang Xian can’t let Tan Yan and Liang Xian write 2000 words more, it must end when it’s time to end.

Don't worry, don't worry, this is just the first volume, there will be more to come, and there will be a new chapter in the evening.The first volume probably means that human beings have passed the period of ignorance of "emptiness", and everything is ready to face new challenges.

There should be a period of time skipping at the beginning of the next volume, and I don’t want to write about the world without pretending to be a baby.

You said... the next chapter is directly about the return of the baby, and the process of defeating the virus in the future, is it okay to write a side story?Otherwise, I feel very watery. Does a broken zombie world have to be smashed for a lifetime?
