Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

“No, don't pack, don't pack, I'm very active in getting close to Division! ”

Zhang Daniu hastily said, “Of course I cooperate. However, if he really went to our" Apocalypse Division "and met our" Prophet ", wouldn't his old man have unloaded eight pieces of me and sliced me into such cruelty? ”

“You worry too much, Teacher Bull. ”

"First, the ability of the ‘prophet' is not as simple as a layer-by-layer scan, he wants information deep in your soul, and he doesn't need a 'slice’ as bloody and brutal.

“Secondly, you will soon realize that, in the world of return, even if this world is studied in slices, it's no big deal. ”

“Not...”

Zhang Daniu screamed, “It's no big deal to be sliced." I don't understand! ”

“Rest easy, in order for you to cooperate as much as possible, I have been given some authority to tell you the truth about the world. ”

The hunter shrugged, "Anyway, the Ark Foundation rats and bugs aren't here yet, so I can briefly introduce you to" The World Back. "”

Li Yao eavesdropped under the bridge. When he heard about it, he couldn't help but shock his spirit.

Originally, the hunter had long anticipated that the Ark Foundation's people and horses would find this place. I'm afraid this is a trap set by him. Zhang Dazhen is the bait. The Ark Foundation's "ten deep sensors, two terminal sensors” will be knocked out.

On the other hand, the hunter threw out the whole new concept of "back to the world”, and it sounded like the point!

“Teacher Niu, you should now be convinced that there are psychics in the world - awakeners, right? ”

But the hunter calmed down, “Don't you wonder what happened to the so-called awakeners, and what was the fundamental contradiction between us between the two groups of awakeners - the Ark and the Apocalypse? ”

“Me, I didn't think it would be nice to think about something so dangerous. ”

Zhang Dazhudao, "But I've seen some superhero themed films, where superpowers are divided into two factions, one that insists on helping humans, controlling their abilities, and integrating themselves into the system of state and society, the other that thinks they should be above humans and everything else and become the masters of the world —— think, you're the same as' Apocalypse ’and' Ark ’? ”

“Then you're wrong. Our differences are far more than that. ”

"As I said earlier, we at Apocalypse did wipe out a lot of novelists, cartoonists, filmmakers and game makers, even physicists and astronomers, injuring innocents and causing hundreds and thousands of casualties in the process - but we still insist that what we do is not ‘immoral', let alone ‘extinct humanity', and wonder why? ”

“Why?”

Zhang Daniu couldn't help but ask.

This is the same question Li Yao wanted to ask.

“It is indeed an inexcusable evil to deprive others of their lives if there is only one life and death cannot be brought back to life. ”

"But, think about it, if a man has a hundred, a thousand, 10,000 or even an infinite number of lives, and as long as time runs out, no matter how miserable he dies, he can be resurrected and returned to his childhood or even to the embryonic stage, what is the point of depriving him of one of the infinite numbers of lives? ”

“This...”

Zhang Daniu stunned for a long time, "I don't understand. What do you mean by ‘infinite life’ and what do you mean by 'resurrection of the dead, return to childhood and embryonic stage'? ”

“The problem, which is very troublesome to interpret, is a bit like a madman's mantra, and fortunately there were a lot of 'observers' who perceived the truth from different angles, and roughly presented ‘back to the world’ in their artistic creations. ”

"Teacher Niu, I don't know if you've ever seen a kind of novel or a movie. The main character is imprisoned on the same day of the long river. Assuming that today is April 1, each day the main character spends is April 1. He sleeps on the night of April 1, and then suddenly wakes up on the morning of April 1. Everything and everything around him, except himself, has happened countless times. So much so that if you don't find the key, you will never be able to break the turn of time. You will always live on April 1. ”

“I've seen this before. ”

Zhang Daniu said, "Is this kind of 'time cycle' a more common topic in science fiction? I remember a famous science fiction writer in our country, Mr. Liu Wenli, who wrote this type of classic," Prisoner of the Day, "and, by the way, I've seen a movie called" Mole Day, "pretty much the same thing, oh, there are also movies," Tomorrow's Edge, "" Source Code, "Terror Cruise Ship," Happy Anniversary, "and so on, there are some differences in detail, but it's all about the time cycle, and the hero in there is like playing a super difficult game that keeps reading gear, and he fails a little bit, fortunately, after every failure, he can" read the record, "go back to the beginning of the time, and start over again.

“Wait, what do you mean, you're saying that these novels and films are not made up, but, to some extent, reflect the truth about our world? ”

“It's wonderful that you can understand that. ”

And the hunter said, “Well, if I told you that our world —— this blue planet at our feet and the 'Spirit of Everything' that lives on this planet, as you just mentioned the protagonist of these works, is trapped at some point in the timeline, a pathetic prisoner in an infinitely roundabout ‘prison of time', I'm sure you wouldn't be surprised? ”

“What!”

Zhang Daniu spoke out, “This is impossible! ”

Li Yao under the bridge, too, could not return to God for half a day.

However, some kind of jumping ripple deep in the brain unlocked more memory fragments, clearly presenting the images of the past, the last, and even the last.

The world is a labyrinth of rotation, a cage of time.

They were all lost in the labyrinth, prisoners on death row.

“I can understand your reaction, Teacher Niu, to accept that the lovely planet at our feet is an infinitely round-robin time prison, which is certainly a hundred times harder than accepting the superpowers of 'ordinary people' - fireballs, arcs, etc., believe it or not, I'm just following the orders of the 'prophet' and simply telling you everything. ”

The hunter blunted, “Unlike, of course, science fiction and movies about time-cycling themes - the protagonists in those works are often trapped on the same day for a month or two at most, but our planet, roughly from the end of the twentieth century to the middle of the twenty-first century, for 560, 670, and not more than a hundred years at most, is undergoing an infinite cycle of weeks and cycles, the exact length of which depends on the performance of all the Earthlings in the 'cycle'.

“For ease of understanding, you can simply imagine that the ‘time start' of our world is 1980, all the initial conditions are entered in 1980 and run according to certain logic and laws, about fifty to a hundred years of operation, and a lot of logical traps, law errors, and data spills gradually emerge, and eventually, when the error of information goes beyond the threshold, 'bang’, the whole world goes through a ‘reboot’, which of course can also be called 'round’, back to 1980, repeating everything. ”

Zhang Daniu lost his soul.

Li Yao also squatted under the bridge and was shocked for too long to breathe.

“Though it sounds incredible, you must have noticed something. Didn't that college student named Li Yao tell you about some strange dreams, or what skills he could never have mastered in his life? ”

The hunter said, "There are a lot of unwitting 'awakeners' all over the Internet, talking about weird things that happen to you, even ‘BUG’ in the world, and since you and Li Yao talk about 'Ark Foundation’, you can't possibly know nothing about these words, right?

“Why do people come to a strange place and feel so familiar? Why would someone suddenly speak a foreign language they'd never learned after an accident? Why is it that someone really remembers something that's happened, but it hasn't happened in their whole life? Why do people naturally become familiar with a skill or course for the first time and become ‘geniuses’ in an area?

“The answer to all this is the cycle of time, infinite rotation, where each of us rotates back in this endless prison a hundred times, a thousand times, a thousand times, in countless turns, we play a variety of different roles, we have experienced a wide variety of different lives, and of course we have learned different languages and skills - in the vast majority of cases, at the beginning of a 'restart' or 'round', we should forget everything in the past, but there are always omissions and mistakes, and there are always people who secretly remember something in the last life or even… something that was a long time ago, something, something, something, not necessarily very pleasant. ”

“But whoops, I, I don't know if I should believe it, but let's put the truth aside, why! ”

Zhang Daniu exclaimed, “Why is there a 'time loop, infinite turnaround'? What's the point of all this nonsense? Such a week after week, always trapped for decades or centuries? ”

“In ancient Greek mythology, Sisyphus had offended the gods, who, in order to punish Sisyphus, had asked him to push a boulder to the top of the mountain, and because it was too heavy, he rolled down the mountain every time he didn't get to the top of the mountain, and his previous work was abandoned, so he did it repeatedly and indefinitely. ”

The hunter asks, "What's the point of Sisyphus' boulder? ”

I really hope there is a turnaround in the world. Teacher Liu can continue to play his talent and persevere in his love in another colorful and incredible new world!
