I Just Want To Retire Quietly

Chapter 44: Rubik's Cube (IX)

Fortunately, they were in shallow sea. Asan dived into the sea and pulled out the unconscious Qiu Qizhen. On the other side, Tan Yan and Qin Li also brought others ashore.

Tan Yan protected everyone with a protective shield, then sat on the shore, wet and looking dejected.

He is so strong that no one can even compare with him, but when you see him like this, people can't help but want to comfort him.

"It's okay," Liang Xian said, "I had a splitting headache the first time I used my superpower. Qiu Qizhen was just too proud of himself the first time he used his superpower. I just need to help him recover."

"That's right, we all got through this." Asan came over and touched Tan Yan, drained all the water from his clothes and hair, turned it into a small water ball and threw it out.

Originally Liang Xian wanted to decompose the water in Tan Yan's body into hydrogen and oxygen, but this was too troublesome and would waste too much consciousness. Asan's water control ability was more convenient.

Liang Xian, who felt that his abilities were increasingly useless, silently went to help Qiu Qizhen regain consciousness.

"I fainted right after I slashed with that knife," Yan Yongfeng also came over and said, "I'm jealous that the squad leader was able to last so long when he used his supernatural power for the first time."

"Really... isn't it my fault that I suddenly want to become a big fish?" Tan Yan said with a hint of expectation.

He especially blamed himself for still having a playful heart at his old age. When he saw that everyone had turned into fish, he was very happy and thought that if only he could turn into a very big fish and protect all the children.

Unexpectedly, a "whale" really appeared, but Qiu Qizhen fainted. Tan Yan felt that his thoughts had burdened Qiu Qizhen's brain, and he was depressed.

"Of course not," Lian Cui and Yu came closer, "In fact, I also think big fish are awesome! When I was a kid watching cartoons, I was particularly envious when I saw the protagonists traveling and adventuring in the belly of a giant whale. I was young at the time, and I said that one day I would ride on a giant whale, but the older I got, the more knowledge I learned, and the fewer fantastic ideas I had in my head. Today, I can sit in a giant whale, which really fulfilled my childhood dream! By the way, have you seen that cartoon too?"

Tan Yan: “…”

He has never watched the cartoon...

Cui Heyu did not think of asking Tan Yan to answer, and continued: "When Liang Xian asked us if we wanted to join, I actually had no interest in abilities like rapid self-healing. After all, the greater the gain, the greater the risk. When I first came to this world and saw the miserable situation around me, I regretted for a moment that I had to fight with Liang Xian and came to another world to die. But now, I am glad that I made the choice."

More crises meant more adventures, and he was very happy that he could have such experiences in his life.

There is a danger of losing life at any time and anywhere, but at the same time, it is also full of splendor and fantasy.

If he misses such an experience, he will become an ignorant and wretch, which is more miserable than death.

Tan Yan's gaze shifted from Cui and Yu to the faces of other children. Some of them were worried about Qiu Qizhen's health, some ran over to comfort Tan Yan, and some ran out of the protective shield to exercise against the wind and waves (especially Qin Li), but none of them were desperate, sad, or regretful.

Tan Yan suddenly understood why Minister Yu was determined to let him go to college and interact with these children as their peers.

His life was a dull grey, filled with loneliness and perseverance since he first entered the "void" at the age of 18. In every night of patrolling alone, Tan Yan had long forgotten the happiness that an 18-year-old young man should have. His life had too early been burdened with burdens that should not belong to a person, and he had lost the joy of youth.

Now, together with these "peers", he has rediscovered his youth.

That big fish is the evidence.

Although his childhood was not filled with fantastic cartoons, his current "youth" has superpowers that are more fantastic than those in animated novels and a group of "peers" who can fight side by side.

At this moment, Tan Yan felt that he had become younger.

Go back and watch the cartoons that Cui Heyu mentioned, and try to have something in common with them.

Qiu Qizhen woke up quickly. He felt a pain in his head as if it was being pricked by needles. But before he could cry out in pain, he saw five people squatting in front of him.

Just as he felt the warmth of having companions in his heart, he heard everyone talking at once -

Qin Li: "It's okay, squad leader. We've all been through pain before, and it will be fine in a while."

Yan Yongfeng, who was still not satisfied, said: "Well, squad leader, just practice more in the future. Sooner or later, we can fly in the sky on Kunpeng... But we have to let Tan Yan know what Kunpeng is first. He doesn't seem to know much about myths."

"I think Kunpeng must at least wait until there is someone among us who can control the wind before he can do it. Tan Yan can't even fly now, and Liang Xian can just float a little." This is the more rigorous Cui Heyu.

Liang Xian: "That's not necessarily true. I can turn into a plane!"

Ah San: "I don't need you if I want to take a plane. I can just go back to the real world and buy a ticket."

Qiu Qizheng: “…”

He pinched his brows and said, "I will work hard to improve my strength and strive to let everyone ride on Kunpeng, or riding a dragon is also OK. But our consciousness is not enough, and it cannot be done without Tan Yan's power."

His ability can most directly feel how strong Tan Yan is. For other people, this strength is probably like the sky for a frog at the bottom of a well, which is high and unattainable. Only when Qiu Qizheng climbed up the well and looked up to see the whole sky, did he understand how strong Tan Yan's power is.

That is a force of absolute suppression that is fundamentally different from their petty fights.

Unlike other people, Tan Yan is simply strong, so strong that all kinds of superpowers can only be crushed in front of him.

Thinking of this, Qiu Qizhen felt a lot of pressure. With his limited ability, when would he be able to cooperate with Tan Yan

At least not now.

Liang Xian continued to help Qiu Qizhen recover, and after another hour, he finally felt a little better.

After some discussion, everyone decided to form groups of six, holding hands and moving forward, and Tan Yan, who could find the teleportation point, would lead the way.

With Qiu Qizhen's consciousness, he would definitely not be able to withstand Tan Yan's crushing force again, but he could still maintain everyone's strength to resist the hurricane.

Liang Xian actually had some concerns: "If the teleportation point is the tombstone, then where should the tombstone be now after being blown by 1,670km/h winds for more than ten hours?"

Everyone: “…”

They lowered their heads to calculate, and considering the decreasing wind speed, the average speed was only about 800km/h, 800*17…

Thirteen thousand six hundred kilometers, blowing directly to the Southern Hemisphere.

Even if Liang Xian could really conjure up a plane, regardless of the weather, they would not be able to arrive within three or four hours.

Tan Yan noticed that the people behind him were a little too silent, so he turned around and asked. Hearing that they were worried that the teleportation point was too far away from them, he said, "It's not that far, about... only a few dozen miles, we'll be there soon."

"Which direction?" Liang Xian asked.

Tan Yan identified the direction and told them.

There is no compass now, and even if there is, it is useless because the earth's magnetic field has been in a mess. Once the magnetic field is in a mess, people's sense of direction will also become worse, but they can still identify the direction through the current wind direction and the direction of the earth's rotation.

"It's still Ping County." Liang Xian drew a map in his mind and said with certainty.

This is simply incredible. With such a strong wind, it is impossible that the tombstone did not fly away, but the location of the teleportation point did not change at all.

"This means that the person who is quantum entangled with Tan Yan is not the person in the tombstone at all!" Liang Xian suddenly had an idea.

Cui Heyu thought of something at the same time and said, "It's the consciousness left on that tombstone!"

Asan's theory of cultivating immortals was not enough to explain this imagination, so he shut up and said nothing.

Cui Heyu's words reminded Liang Xian. He recalled the light that supported the Great Wall and finally dissipated in the air. He analyzed, "Since ancient times, people have been discussing whether the soul exists. McDougall measured the weight of a person before and after death and concluded that the weight of the soul is 21 grams. He also tested the weight of a dog, but there was no change. The conclusion is that dogs do not have souls."

"But in fact, the reason why the dog did not have this weight change is that no one knew at the time that thinking, that is, consciousness, actually has weight." Cui Heyu also suddenly realized, "Because consciousness is made up of a large number of entangled particles, although microscopic particles are light, they do have weight. When a person dies, consciousness dissipates, and the particles probably fly into the air like the light spots we see, so the person's weight will be reduced by 21g."

"If this theory is true, then the soul theory is valid. Most people's consciousness will dissipate after death, but for someone like Tan Yan, his consciousness is quantum entangled with another consciousness. So after his death, will his consciousness really disappear?" Liang Xian asked.

Cui Heyu: "I tend to think not. His consciousness will always exist because of quantum entanglement. Similarly, some people occasionally feel that their relatives have come back to visit them after their relatives die. This is also because their consciousness has quantum entanglement before death. However, such weak entanglement will not affect people's lives, so they will only dream about it occasionally. And we know that the brain also consumes energy in thinking. When this part of the quantum force is consumed, the entanglement will disappear. This is the so-called fading and forgetting."

"What kind of strong quantum entanglement does Tan Yan have with the remaining consciousness on the tombstone that allows him to find his way back to Earth no matter which world he goes to?" Liang Xian felt a little sad. He also wanted to have an entanglement with Tan Yan that could not be separated by distance or death.

"Oh, I see!" Qin Li, who had been listening for a long time with a frown, clapped his hands. "Someone used his own life to carve a magic teleportation array on the tombstone. Because of this person's thoughts or for some other reason, only Tan Yan can sense the teleportation array. And the soul oath will not disappear due to the changes in time and space. So even if the tombstone is destroyed and the body inside disappears, the soul oath is still there, and the space teleportation array is still quietly waiting for Tan Yan in the distance."

"Of course that's not the case!" Cui Heyu and Liang Xian said in unison.

Yan Yongfeng: "But I understand."

Ah San: "Although I am not a fan of Western fantasy, I understand it."

Qiu Qizheng: “I understand.”

Cui Heyu Liangxian: "..."

You guys are not enterprising!

The author has something to say: It seems that I will have to put translations when putting theories in the future, humph

I went out today to visit a patient in the next big city. I was quite tired when I came back, so I will update one chapter. Tomorrow, Lazy Qing will update 9,000 chapters. There will be one update at 14:00 noon and two updates at 22:00 pm. I love you all (づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭?~
