Siheyuan's Journey Through the Ages

Chapter 17: Nothingness
"Don't think about this in the short term. You don't have the ability to do it well, and I'm not ready. The most important thing for you now is to survive safely. As for the benefits I can give you:

First, I said that I have recorded everything that has happened on Earth in the past four hundred years, as long as it is of some value, in the database. Just think about how much help this will be to you;
Second, my real body is inside you. I still have the radar scanning capability with a radius of 10 meters, and you can use it at any time.

Third, congratulations, I still have a space that will never be lacking in the system article. "

"This is so cool, come on, show me this space, let me go in and take a look."

"Don't get excited. You can't go in now. When I traveled through time, I used up all my energy to protect you and myself. Even everything collected in the space was basically converted into energy. There is nothing in the space now, including air. If you open the space channel, the wind pressure caused by the pressure difference on both sides will blow up your room."

Ma Qing was shocked. During his communication with Xiao Qi, he roughly understood that this space was probably a spherical space with a diameter of 1 kilometer. It was developed by an alien civilization using the actual cavity in Xiao Qi's body and the space folding technology that represents the highest technology.

But its use is not as convenient as ordinary system text space. In order to completely block the fantasy direction and create a logical system that is both fun and does not collapse, the damn author has too many restrictions.

Ma Qing couldn't sit still at this time. He wanted to open the space and take a look, just like a little boy who couldn't wait to tear open the package of a new toy. Ma Qing rushed to the street. Considering that opening the space door would make a lot of noise, he could only go to the suburbs. When he walked to the alley, he saw a bus going to Xishan. He quickly squeezed on it and bought a ticket for the terminal at 1 yuan from the conductor. He walked and stopped all the way, and it took him an hour and a half to reach Xishan.

After getting off the car, they walked towards the West Mountain. There were not many people on the West Mountain at that time. After all, at this time when people can't even get enough food, not many people come to climb the mountain. Ma Qing turned east and west and went wherever there was no one. It took him more than half an hour to find an uninhabited valley. He also asked Xiao Qi to scan the area within 10 meters. After confirming that there was no one, he asked Xiao Qi for details on how to open the space door.

"Confirm a coordinate in your mind, and I will build a space channel between the system space and the real world. It will take about 1 minute to complete. In addition, please note that after you enter the space, you must not close the space door. Once closed, the system space will lose the coordinates of the real space and it will be difficult to connect again."

"What? It will take another minute to build a passage. Can you do it? Look at them. They can put things into the space with just a wave of their hands, and take things out with just another wave of their hands. Although they can't put living things in, they can put things in and take things out in a split second. Your level is too low."

"Shut up. Are you going to drive anymore? If you want to drive, just go away." Xiao Qi said sternly, seeming a little angry.

Ma Qing located the door at the innermost part of the valley and quickly ran to hide behind a large rock in the distance. After about a minute, Ma Qing heard a muffled bang and a strong wind blew around him, pulling at his clothes.

After a full minute, the wind gradually died down. Ma Qing looked around and saw a scene just like after a storm. Even the soil around the space door was lower by a layer.

Ma Qing walked forward and found that the space gate was completely transparent. It could not be seen from a distance. Only when it was a little closer could one find that the space gate was glowing faintly.

Ma Qing did not go in. On the way here, he had already discussed with Xiao Qi that this time they would mainly collect air and basic circulating materials first. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, they would focus on speed. The space door rippled slightly, and a row of robots quickly walked out. Their shuttle-shaped bodies were connected to four soft claws on the top and bottom, like a crab standing sideways. Their bodies were shining with a silvery-white luster, and they looked very high-tech. These were the last 4 universal robots that Xiao Qi kept.

As a supporting robot of the Interstellar Pioneer Scout 7.0, its main job is to collect items that Xiaoqi considers valuable and maintain the Earth's biological circulation system built by Xiaoqi in space. Xiaoqi said that this is also a way of information reconnaissance and collection. Who cares? I can't resist and can only enjoy it.

Ma Qing saw these robots, with an aesthetic efficiency, pulling up everything within a radius of fifty meters. They pulled up trees, pulled up grass, lifted up stones, and took a fierce bite of the earth. It took about 10 minutes. Ma Qing closed the space door, turned around and left, avoiding people along the way. He went down the mountain and took the bus back home, his heart still pounding.

This incident will most likely become a miracle, and the story of a person being bitten by a heavenly dog ​​in a valley on the West Mountain in 1959 will most likely be passed down from generation to generation by the people of the West Mountain.

Ma Qing and Xiao Qi had considered such reckless behavior before. They thought that it shouldn't be a big problem if it happened once in a while. There was no Sky Eye in this era, so the risk of being exposed was basically zero. To be on the safe side, Ma Qing got off the bus three stops in advance and walked home.

It was around five in the afternoon when Ma Qing returned to the courtyard and found the alley quite lively. There were groups of people chatting at the gate of each courtyard. Three uncles, He Yuzhu, Xu Damao and other men formed a circle, while three aunts and the women in the courtyard formed a circle, each of them having a heated discussion.

Ma Qing's gossipy spirit was burning in his heart. He hurriedly squeezed into the circle of men and asked Xu Damao, "Brother Damao, what's going on?"

"Where have you been? You didn't see such an exciting thing just now. What a pity." Xu Damao got excited: "Do you know that the Wang family in the No. 9 courtyard at the end of the alley got beaten up today? It was a terrible thing."

"It's so exciting, why is it?"

"The Wang family is used to taking advantage of others. The Li family in the yard was also the one who died in a work-related accident. They were next to the Wang family, so the two families shared a corner as a kitchen, originally half each, and nothing happened. After the Li man died in a work-related accident, only a widow and a child were left at home. I don't know what was wrong with Wang, but he took advantage of the fact that the man was gone and built a new stove in the corner, which took up an extra meter of the shared space. Of course, the Li wife didn't like it, and a conflict broke out. In the end, Wang pushed the Li wife. Now, this afternoon, more than 10 of Li man's co-workers came over and without saying a word, they directly destroyed the Wang family's newly built stove, dragged Wang out of the house and beat him, and forced him to kneel down and apologize to the Li wife."

"You are so brave! Don't the police care if you beat someone like this?"

"Who cares? It's just a conflict among the people. The Wang family is not in the right. They bullied orphans and widows. The police will criticize them when they come. Even if they have to pay a few dollars for medical expenses, who in our area can afford this little money? I think the Wang family has been so embarrassed this time that they probably won't be able to live in Nanluoguxiang for long. If they have any shame, they will probably move away."

An old man looked at Ma Qing and said, "Ma Qing, don't worry. There is no such person in our courtyard. If anyone dares to bully you, none of you old men will agree." A group of men around hurriedly echoed him, fearing that if they expressed their opinions too late, they would become Lao Wang.
