"What's the situation?" Huang Jinchen replaced the empty clip, "Doctor Kou, report the situation."
Kou Tong looked at the entire plain in a daze, and did not hear him at all. The whole person fell into a crazy academic state. Huang Jinchen observed him for a while and felt that if he pressed "Ctrl", "Shift" and "Esc" on Dr. Kou at the same time, he would definitely find that Dr. Kou's CPU usage was as high as 100. %—already stuck.
So Master Huang had to change his target and turned around to ask He Xiaozhi, who was stunned: "Child, how did you do that hand just now?"
He Xiaozhi shook his head blankly.
"Think about it, you are now our A-pole cheater."
"I was alone... in the living room. There is a full-length mirror in the living room of Dr. Kou's house, and I just sat there."
He Xiaozhi's speech rate is very slow. Generally speaking, he has two states. One is that he is not in a high mood and his reaction is relatively slow. Like now, his mentality is relatively stable. Unfortunately, this kind of calm but depressed mood cannot be maintained for a long time. Time, he often collapses, and his temper is relatively bad when he collapses. Although it can be seen that he is trying his best to restrain himself, the emotional instability caused by the abnormal secretion of various hormones in the patient's body cannot be solved by restraint. Sometimes he will Leaning against the wall and crying silently, sometimes yelling, or even self-mutilating, generally speaking, at this time, it is necessary to rely on the professional Dr. Kou to cooperate with the medicine.
"Originally, the mirror was reflecting my image, but I was distracted for a few minutes. When I came back to my senses, I saw you in the mirror, and that..." He frowned, not knowing what to do Describing the goat with wings and using chains, "That monster the size of a dinosaur was screaming. I thought you might be dangerous, so I stretched out my hand involuntarily, and I didn't expect to penetrate the mirror."
Kou Tong turned around at this time and asked, "What were you thinking when you were distracted?"
He Xiaozhi was stunned.
Kou Tong walked up to him, bent down a little, put his eyes on He Xiaozhi, and said in a very soft voice, "It's okay, I said, you can tell me anything, remember?"
He Xiaozhi stared at his eyes for a while, as if he had found some source of power, he nodded, and then said, "I looked at myself in the mirror at the time and thought... I'm a waste who only drags people down— That's what my mother said, I can't do anything, I can't even die. If I die, many people will be implicated. I watch you run around every day, and I can't help you with anything..."
"Who said that?" Kou Tong interrupted him. He probably understood in his heart that the mirror should be the reflection of He Xiaozhi in space. Due to some special reasons, his response would be relatively slow, and the system analysis time would be relatively long. Stimulation can only be discovered. In order to make his words more convincing, Kou Tong pointed to Huang Jinchen and said, "You saved our lives, if you hadn't stretched out your hand in the mirror, this guy would have been given by the big goat with wings. smashed."
This is not the case - because the crow is annoying, but it is not fatal. In fact, if you give him a little space and time, this magical sniper may be able to kill it through the eyes of the monster, not to mention the cooperation of Kou Tong.
However, although Huang Jinchen is relatively indifferent, he is not a brain-damaged person. He doesn't want to demolish Kou Tong's platform for any unimportant matter, so he said, "Who did I get blocked there for, Her Royal Highness, the princess who is in trouble?"
Kou Tong said: "You are ashamed to say, who was discovered so accidentally as soon as they appeared - I have a way to escape even if you don't come."
Huang Jinchen asked: "Get out? I think it's more feasible for you to seduce that little witch by taking off your clothes."
He Xiaozhi, a pure young man, felt a deep pressure. Hearing the two of you talk to each other, she lowered her head like a little daughter-in-law and followed the two men, walking along the path in the field towards the cabin.
However, Huang Jinchen turned his head and said to He Xiaozhi earnestly, "This lesson tells the hot-blooded teenagers that you must find your target before becoming a knight. Princesses and princesses are also different."
Perhaps it was the field's wide field of vision, or the scent of plants that brought the unique soothing breath of nature. He Xiaozhi's low-level and unstable mood all year round was a little better. He looked at Huang Jinchen with some doubts and asked, "Why?"
"There are many kinds of princesses," Huang expert dragged a grass from the ground, put it in his mouth, and said slowly, "Some princesses are beautiful, some are beautiful, and some are beautiful and charming, and some are beautiful. some… "
He pointed to Kou Tong's back, and said with a sad expression, "Beautiful and pitiful."
Kou Tong turned around and said quietly, "Er Fatty, we have no grievances, right?"
Huang Jinchen asked, "In order to show that you don't cheat, can you find a way to get some of your brothers out?"
Kou Tong thought for a while and said, "This program is actually like a black box. When everyone comes in, it corresponds to a very complicated equation. This is how it is achieved in theory, so when I saw the mirror, I felt incredible, because The projector is designed with only one time axis, and it is unidirectional. If the space is stable, then its dimension is fixed, so it is almost impossible to have space folding or time shuttle.”
He Xiaozhi: "…"
Huang Jinchen: "..."
Huang Jinchen rubbed his forehead: "Can we use human language?"
"The time axis is introduced into the application of many mathematical and physical equations, which is non-zero, and in most cases one-way irreversible, just like you alone cannot appear at two spatial coordinate points at the same time in the same space. Kou Tong said, "The meaning that space cannot be folded means that the distance from the island to my home is the distance. In the same space-time dimension, it is absolutely impossible to have a shortcut or a door." , allowing us to ignore this length and go straight home from the island."
"But if the mirror hadn't been shattered just now, we could have been pulled home from the mirror by the child." Huang Jinchen thought for a while, "and he was indeed at your house, reaching out to the island where we are."
"So I just judged that there are two timelines in this space." Kou Tong said, "and the other..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the door of the cabin suddenly opened, and a puppy jumping out of it, followed by an old man with white hair.
Kou Tong, who never thought that there would be people here, was stunned and forgot what he was going to say in the second half of the sentence.
The puppy opened its curious eyes, circled around them a few times, smelled it, then instinctively moved away from Huang Jinchen, squatted at Kou Tong's feet, and looked at him friendly with his tail wagging and his tongue sticking out.
Kou Tong touched the puppy's head, and the puppy licked it in his palm.
The old man laughed and beckoned to the puppy: "Huanhuan, we have guests."
The puppy named "Huanhuan" barked and ran back in the direction of the owner. Kou Tong and the others walked over, and the old man hurriedly greeted them to enter the house.
This is a very ordinary, yet very warm little house.
The skin on the old man's hands is very loose, and there are age spots on the back of his hands. He looks abnormally thin and must not be in good health.
They were sitting on a fancy wooden table with a bottle of watery flowers on it, and water was being boiled in a small teapot next to it.
"My surname is Tian." The old man said, "I don't know what happened to me. I came here as soon as I opened my eyes, and I have a puppy I raised when I was young."
Kou Tong knew that this Laotian was the last subject of consciousness, and he sighed with emotion that this projector that twitched was random enough, and that all men, women, children and children were all there. Kou Tong had to explain the fact that the projector was out of control again. The old man was not surprised at all, he just brewed tea with boiled water and served it to a few people. He said with emotion, "So that's what happened. This world is really magical, and it changes every day."
Then Lao Tian picked up the small teacup, smelled the aroma inside with the mist of water, and then said: "At first, I thought I was dead—I am a bone cancer patient, in the advanced stage. I was notified of critical illness, and it hurts every day. After the pain, I fell into a coma, the cancer cells spread, and many organs have failed."
"They are here with me," Lao Tian compared his neck. "I cut a knife, inserted the tube, and I lived on those tubes every day. Then one day I suddenly woke up, and I felt that I had not been there for a long time. I was so awake, and I was able to sit up and move. Then I understood, this is the return of the light. The children are not around, they are busy, I feel a little pity, I was not able to say the last word to them, I originally planned to call a nurse Come in and explain a few last words, who knows that we will be in this small garden in the next moment."
Kou Tong was immediately embarrassed and didn't know what to say. Every person who is involved in the machine failure can tell others that he must find a way to solve the problem as soon as possible and send everyone back. This... What should I say
Not to mention how cruel it is to put a person on the edge of life and death. In the future, everyone will leave here. What will he do? You must know that seven people are in the same projection of consciousness, and the strange balance formed is like a building built of cards. It may get out of control with a little bang. Everyone leaves at the same time, and it is impossible to leave him alone. in the projector.
Even if it can be done, without the interaction, Lao Tian's projection equation will inevitably change, and the weird extra timeline disappears. Could it be that he died in such a... an insurmountable distance from everyone. dimensional space
He Xiaozhi held the teacup blankly, and even Huang Jinchen did not speak.
"I'm sorry..." Kou Tong hesitated for a long time, and finally spit out such a sentence, "I don't know what to do... I'm sorry."
Lao Tian smiled: "I'm sorry, if it wasn't for your accident this time, I would have been buried in the soil by now. Who wouldn't want to live a long and healthy life?"
"Come." Laotian stood up and greeted, the dog Huanhuan jumped up with him, Laotian opened the door, and there were unknown flowers blooming on the small fence, as if the first wisps of morning dew were still condensing , so delicate, so beautiful, "I have observed that these flowers are the same every day, sometimes two of them fall, and after a while, they are exactly the same as before, young man, can you explain?"
Kou Tong hesitated for a moment, his voice was a little hoarse, he said: "This extra time axis has been alienated by space, it is not a line, but a cycle, the cycle is eternal, just like if a The plane is closed, and the person living on it will never 'walk' out. This timeline is a cyclic timeline that always repeats for a short period of time, so you can..."
Live back and forth.
"Oh." Lao Tian suddenly realized and said with a smile, "It's a genius who designed it."
Kou Tong's heart is heavy, and he doesn't feel like a genius at all.
Lao Tian patted him on the shoulder: "A timeline of other people is my whole life, isn't it amazing? I plan to name this yard, it's just my life. But your machine should still be repaired, Let me know when the repair is complete, I can still find someone to say a few last words, you can work a little bit in advance, so that I can stop worrying and talk slowly, it will be better."
Huang Jinchen suddenly interjected. He looked at the old man as if he was looking at something surprising, and asked, "Aren't you afraid of death?"
"I don't want to die." Lao Tian thought about it and said, "But people always have to die, and this is something no one can do. Live well when you are alive, and die when you deserve to die. From ancient times to the present, not all Is that how you came here?"
Huang Jinchen was stunned for a while, and seemed to be stunned too.
In spring, the flowers all over the mountains will grow tiny buds, and a fragrance from the water and soil will spread far away, attracting bees and butterflies. In summer, the vegetation will become incomparable. Powerful, it grows branches and leaves that can block the sky, green enough to drip oil, the starry sky will be very clear, the Milky Way is like a satin, in autumn, those green branches and leaves will turn yellow, grow fruit, and the river will become more and more Clear, planning to run into the boundless sea before freezing.
And in winter, when a heavy snow falls, all life will return to silence, the sky and the earth are boundless, everything will be washed clean, and those who have died will be buried, waiting for the new life in the coming year.
This is the rule of the world, like a person's life and death.
The dying old man was stuck in an infinite time loop between life and death, holding a small teacup, turning his head to the light that made his shadow long, while the puppy bit on the plant that would recover after a while.
Kou Tong suddenly felt like he wanted to be like He Xiaozhi and wanted to cry.
