This is a modern comprehensive local museum that integrates cultural relic protection, scientific research exhibition, and leisure experience. It houses more than 1 sets of various cultural relics and exhibits, including ancient books and documents, calligraphy and paintings, inscriptions, ceramics, metalware, and miscellaneous items reflecting the theme of the canal from the Spring and Autumn Period to the present.

After spending an afternoon there, they had only visited most of the museum and had not finished it completely.

It was not a coincidence that I met Bai Shi and others in this canal museum.

Most of the cultural relics here are worthless items such as ship fragments and river bedrock. Compared to going here, Bai Shi chose to take the two girls to visit the Slender West Lake.

While visiting the museum, a small incident occurred.

Chen Yun received a call from the police.

The main purpose of this call was to find him and find out what happened on the ferry before, and then to ask him not to spread it to anyone else.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yun asked Bai Shi and the others, and sure enough, they also received the call, and he was not the only one who received the call.

Obviously there is no need to worry about the ferry.

The authorities probably want to suppress the heat as much as possible and prevent this matter from spreading all over the Internet.

After that, there were no more incidents.

Nearing six o'clock in the evening, the two of them called Lao Wu at the entrance of the museum.

"Hello? Are you off work? Want to go out for dinner?"

"Brother Yun will take a plane back to Shu City tomorrow."

Shi Jie invited with a smile.

The person on the other end of the phone was another college classmate, Lao Wu, who was too busy to come out at noon because he had to go to work.

Soon.

Several people met at a barbecue restaurant.

Old Wu's name is Wu Xiangao, and he is a guy with a slightly wider build than the average person.

After graduation, his parents insisted that he take the civil service exam. Unfortunately, after preparing for the exam for a year at home, he still failed. In the end, he used his family’s connections to arrange a job in a bank.

Sorry for not being able to come this afternoon.

He first punished himself with a drink, and then started chatting with everyone with a smile.

Afterwards, the few of them chatted with each other about their recent situations, and there were smiles on their faces that they had not seen during the past few years of work.

Relatively realistic.

I still miss the school days.

Chen Yun and Shi Jie had an in-depth discussion about the fact that such a strong man like Old Wu only ate two bowls of fried rice in a buffet restaurant.

In response, Wu Xiangao also bluntly complained about Shi Jie's shabby hairstyle and some of Chen Yun's past embarrassing incidents.

During this period, there were no pretentious and slapped-in-the-face situations like in many novels, nor were there any passers-by who came to provoke without reason.

Only in novels, because there is no coincidence in the world, all kinds of situations keep happening.

Besides, there were three young men sitting next to a barbecue stall. Under normal circumstances, no more than five or six people would come to provoke the three young men.

In fact, this is just a normal class reunion.

There's not so much nonsense.

They were just bragging to each other, talking about the pretty girls they had met in college, and chatting about their previous gaming experiences, just like most friends who have not seen each other for a long time.

It was not until after nine o'clock in the evening that the three people, who had a rare chance to get together, went back to their homes.

We agreed to play games together every Saturday and Sunday if we are free.

Shi Jie and Wu Xiangao smiled and each took a taxi.

Everything in the world is normal and running smoothly as before.

But as Chen Yun watched his two classmates leave, he realized that he was really different.

It's not just that I'm no longer in the same world as these two friends, but that I'm no longer in the same world as all human beings.

Just as he thought before.

Going home this time is like saying goodbye to my past self.

Mother, father, younger brother, white moonlight, friends.

He seemed to have met everyone he was supposed to meet.

The dim lights in the streets and alleys made Chen Yun's mind full of thoughts.

The alcohol ferments slightly in the blood, but dissipates quickly, and it does not bring back the unique feeling of being tipsy yet sober.

The night wind blew gently, leaving behind a sense of loneliness and depth. This is Jiangnan Province, where there is no nightlife. The crowd around him is gradually dispersing, leaving him alone in the quiet night, as if he can hear the voice in his heart.

Looking up at the starry sky, the stars are twinkling like memories of life and aspirations for the future, and Chen Yun's eyes are also twinkling.

He was thinking about the laughter and conversation of the night, and also thinking about the direction of his life and the future path.

His future is visibly deviating from the world of ordinary people.

Chen Yun actually felt a little lonely.

At this moment, loneliness is not solitude, but a process of self-dialogue and self-precipitation. It is a time of solitude given by life, which allows people to examine their inner selves more deeply and understand themselves.

And for him.

It’s not so much loneliness as it is that I’ve gradually stood too high, so high that I can hardly see the people below me.

Although it hasn't happened yet, he has already predicted the possible future.

Not to mention my future status and strength, my lifespan will most likely be much longer than that of ordinary people.

He didn't believe that his evolution would ignore this.

By the time.

The people around me...seem to stay away.

And in the end, only myself was left.

Life is like a fleeting moment. Compared with the vast history, everyone's life is just a very short moment.

He has younger brothers, parents, and friends. When they are old, if he has a way, should he help his parents, younger brothers, and friends to live forever, or let them enjoy their old age?

What will parents, younger brother and friends choose?

If they passed away, what impact would it have on your state of mind?

Maybe I would shout that I can't stand it anymore and blow up the earth with one punch? Then I would be a destroyer who smashes stars everywhere without caring about anything.

Maybe I will leave the Earth and travel into space? Go to other planets or even outside the solar system to seek a new civilization.

Maybe you will be at a loss and sink into the world to escape? Open a shop for the immortals and entertain the guests.

Chen Yun was not sure what would happen specifically.

With complicated thoughts.

He waved to a taxi on the side of the road.

The taxi pulled over immediately.

I told the driver that the destination was the hotel we had booked before, and he started driving skillfully after knowing that.

As he looked at the images flashing outside the car window, many thoughts flashed through Chen Yun's mind.

His mother helped him to find a clear anchor when he was confused, his father helped him to remove the shackles of pressure and anxiety, his brother made him want to reach for the sky, and the white moonlight made him understand that he yearned for the future more than the past...

Everything seemed to push him towards becoming a pure seeker.

But finally.

Chen Yun couldn't help but think about the last question that this journey home brought to his mind.

That is:

The loneliness that is destined to come with immortality.

Maybe it's too early to think about this now.

However, Chen Yun felt that with his evolutionary ability always leaning towards defense and survival, it was impossible not to consider the issue of lifespan.

He even had a vague suspicion that he already had quite a bit of life left, but he just couldn't verify it by any means at the moment.

and so.

You may not be able to experience the loneliness brought by immortality now, but you will experience it in the future.

Wait until everyone around you has left.

What anchor would he have at that time?

What kind of changes will occur in his psychology?

As a human being who has only been exposed to short-lived species since childhood, it is difficult for Chen Yun to think about the problem of long-lived species from the perspective of a short-lived species.

So even with the rational balance mechanism, he couldn't help but fall into confusion.

The fact is, he couldn't give an answer.

I don’t know when I can give an answer.

As he thought about this, Chen Yun looked at his own reflection in the car window, then at the street lights and green belts receding outside the window for a long time without saying a word.

perhaps……

After he has truly gone through a long period of time.

The answer to this question comes naturally.

Chapter 111 New Short-term Plan

Dear passengers and friends:

[We have safely arrived at our destination. The plane will need to taxi to the designated parking space. To ensure your safety, please do not stand up or open the luggage rack to pick up your luggage before the "seat belt sign" goes out. Please do not turn on or use your mobile phone before opening the cabin door. Please take all your luggage with you when you get off the plane. Please go to the baggage claim area in the terminal to collect your checked luggage. ]

After the plane slowly landed from the air to the ground, it did not stop immediately, but needed to continue to glide for a while to slow down.

However, the arrival destination reminder has sounded, informing all passengers that they can prepare to leave.

Bai Shi and his companions, who had been sleeping all the way, had already woken up when they landed, but they still had their eyes closed and were concentrating.

Now, as the beep sounded, announcing they had arrived at their destination, they rubbed their eyes and straightened up from their seatbacks.

It is now 10:00 AM on March 30th.

After nearly three hours of flight, Chen Yun and Bai Shi returned to Shu City. During the six-day trip, everyone had a great time.

To put it in a more mysterious way, Chen Yun has also made great progress in his state of mind.

The plane is now taxiing and slowing down.

Chen Yun was looking out the window with his chin propped up.

Feeling the temperature and humidity outside the plane, which were completely different from those in Jiangnan Province, Chen Yun felt a little emotional.

The return trip ended here, and it felt unexpectedly long to him.

This would never have been the case in the past.

But now, too many things have happened to him on this trip back. The various changes in his state of mind made Chen Yun feel as if he had been reincarnated several times.

Sitting in silence, he felt as if he were in another world, just like when he went to Laojun Mountain before.

……

Soon, the plane came to a stop.

The flight attendants and stewards stood at the cabin door, greeting the departing passengers enthusiastically.

After the plane stopped, several people immediately stood up and left the plane with the crowd.

They followed the signs on the road all the way to the baggage carousel.

Chen Yun, Bai Shi and Jiang Anping only had one bag each, but Sun Huiwen also had a suitcase that needed to be checked in.

Several people waited for a while at the luggage carousel.
