"Hey, it's tasteless. Even the crude tea from Jiang Village over there is much more flavorful." Bai Che took a sip of tea and murmured to himself, "If it's an illusion, where is the solution? I am now I'm just an ordinary person, how can I break this illusion?"
"By the way, I still have the operation formula of 'Taiyan Tuna' in my mind. At the same time, I also remember the formula of "Tao Jing". Can I absorb spiritual energy and practice in this world?" Bai Che's eyes moved slightly and then closed. According to the "Taiyan Tuna", adjust your breathing.
Everyone no longer paid attention to the little fight between Liu Xuan and Bai Che, and stepped forward to give gifts and blessings. Liu Xuan was left with a red face and looked at Bai Che angrily.
Bai Che turned a deaf ear to this, and his breathing gradually became better. Gradually, Bai Che faintly felt a wisp of spiritual energy slowly pouring into his abdomen.
"It seems that it is really possible." Bai Che felt happy in his heart, but slowly, Bai Che's brows frowned, "The spiritual energy in this world is extremely thin, the laws are broken and incomplete, and there is no power of heaven. It is like a human being who has constructed a , or a place that was completely plundered and abandoned.”
"I'm afraid, if we continue at this speed, I won't even be able to reach the first level of body tempering within a year and a half. Then I won't be able to use my spiritual power and break this illusion. Do I really have to be trapped here until my physical body fails? And die? No, no, that’s not what I want. Even though it’s a beautiful construction here, it’s not what I want.”
"The power of time is truly magical." Bai Che murmured.
The banquet went on normally. Apart from the initial commotion and Liu Xuan's resentful look, nothing major happened. Everything was normal. So, Bai Che just had to eat and drink. When the time was almost up, Bai Che and Gu Miaoting After saying a few words, he left the Gu family manor.
In the Gu family manor, apart from proving that this place was indeed an illusion, Bai Che didn't find any other useful clues. It would be better to start with the paper "On Life Science and Genetic Variation". He still remembered the content of the paper and planned to go back. Write it down silently.
So, Bai Che swept a shared bicycle and headed towards Beicheng University.
The night was very dark, the moon was covered by dark clouds, and the stars were dim. Bai Che rode to the old city. The street lights in the old city were already extremely weak, and it seemed even darker at night.
Moments after entering the old city, a car drove up in front of Bai Che. It had its high beams on, blinding Bai Che for a moment, but the car didn't seem to notice Bai Che and drove straight towards him. , as expected, Bai Che was knocked away. At the last moment when he fell, Bai Che saw clearly that the person in the car was Liu Xuan. At this moment, he was smiling proudly.
Suddenly, a white light flashed, and when Bai Che opened his eyes, he found himself lying in a room, with Lin Yang next to him looking at him.
"Arche, you finally woke up?" Lin Yang said anxiously, "It's been several days, and you finally woke up."
"Ayang, where am I?" Bai Che asked with some confusion.
"This is a hospital. You were hit by a car on your way back to school a few days ago. However, since there is no surveillance in the old city, the perpetrator ran away. Fortunately, you have nothing serious, just some concussion." Lin Yang explained : "You have a good rest first, and I'll call the doctor."
Bai Che nodded. He looked at the ward and felt a little familiar. He was full of doubts.
Not long after, the doctor came and examined Bai Che.
When Bai Che saw the doctor, he frowned and said with a smile: "This beautiful sister, we are really destined to meet again."
The doctor frowned slightly and said, "I don't think it's that predestined. It seems that you were injured quite seriously and you even had visual hallucinations. This is my first time to examine you. How could I have seen you before?"
"Didn't you check me last time too?" Bai Che said with a smile.
"Last time?" The doctor shook his head and said, "I think you got the wrong person."
Hearing this, Bai Che was shocked. He knew that he had not mistaken the person because he remembered the name on the doctor's badge - Jiang Xiaoyu.
But Jiang Xiaoyu didn't look like she was lying, and there was no need for her to lie.
After a while, Jiang Xiaoyu finished checking Bai Che and told Lin Yang: "Your friend is fine. It may be some sequelae after the concussion. After he is discharged from the hospital, he should pay attention to rest. The rest will be fine."
"I really don't understand. You were in such a serious car accident. Except for some concussions, your whole body was not injured. You are lucky. You should pay more attention in the future." Jiang Xiaoyu warned Bai Che again and left.
"Ayang, when I had a car accident last time, was she the one who examined me?" Bai Che asked after Jiang Xiaoyu left.
"When did you get into a car accident?" Lin Yang looked shocked, "Why didn't I know? I'm a little worried about you acting like this. Do you want to stay a few more days? I'll go talk to Lao Fei."
Bai Che's heart trembled when he heard Lin Yang's words. He had an answer in his mind. He had probably returned to that day.
To be sure, Bai Che asked again: "Ayang, what is today's date?"
"October 18th." Lin Yang replied: "That's the day to choose the topic."
Bai Che nodded and said, "Ayang, I'll take it easy for now. You can help me go through the discharge procedures."
After Lin Yang completed the discharge procedures, the two took a taxi towards the school. The familiar car, familiar scenery, and familiar ginkgo trees made Bai Che feel more and more uneasy.
Time loops?
What is all this about?
Bai Che didn't have the answer, but it all started to seem reasonable, and the reason for his car accident was found.
But it was all so reasonable that it made him feel terrible, as if it was being forced by a hand to confirm his identity.
"No, that's not right." Bai Che suddenly said loudly, "This is not just a time loop, but also a disorder of time."
Lin Yang and the driver were both startled by Bai Che. Lin Yang hurriedly asked: "Arche, what do you mean by time loop and time chaos?"
"Sorry." Bai Che shook his head and said, "Maybe it's the sequelae that made me talk nonsense. I just need to rest and I'll be fine."
Finally arriving at school, Bai Che looked at Lin Yang thoughtfully.
"Ayang, do you think time has no end?" Suddenly, Bai Che suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, Lin Yang was slightly stunned and said: "This is a philosophical question, I can't answer it."
"No." Bai Che shook his head and said, "You can look at it from a scientific perspective."
"Although time is a concept defined by humans, it exists from the beginning to the present. I think it is an endless straight line."
Bai Che nodded and said: "I think time has an end. It is a cycle and reincarnation. The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, all things wither and revive, the times change, etc., they are all reincarnations, and they are all subject to the changes. The left and right side of time, or in other words, time is the essence of all things, and its end is the beginning.”
In Lin Yang's view, Bai Che's words were a fallacy. Without mentioning whether time has an end, reincarnation alone was unbelievable. The examples Bai Che gave were just the laws of nature and society.
"There is no reincarnation, what you said is just a pattern." Lin Yang shook his head and retorted.
"So what are laws?" Bai Che asked with a smile: "Aren't the laws you are talking about also defined by humans?"
"Although it is a human definition, it has been experienced in practice and is correct." Lin Yang continued: "Not to mention society, the laws of nature have been tested by human subjective initiative and are in line with practice."
"You are right." Bai Che smiled and said, "Then who created the laws of nature?"
"This..." Lin Yang was speechless. He didn't want to argue with Bai Che because it was pointless. After all, these things were too vague and there was no answer.
"I won't argue with you." Lin Yang finally chose to give in. He knew that Bai Che was stubborn and there was little point in arguing like this, so he said, "It's time to choose a topic. Don't keep Fei waiting too long."
Bai Che shook his head and said: "I won't go, just pick up the last remaining things. Ayang, you go ahead, I'm going back to the dormitory."
This made Lin Yang stunned. Is this still the Bai Che he knew? But seeing Bai Che's serious look, he couldn't help but nodded.
Still met Gu Miaoting at the corner.
Gu Miaoting greeted Bai Che, and after chatting for a while, Gu Miaoting finally summoned the courage to ask: "Bai Che, will you tomorrow..."
Bai Che smiled and said, "I won't go. I don't like places with too many people."
"But..." Looking at Gu Miaoting's lonely look, Bai Che paused, took out the dragon blood jade and handed it to Gu Miaoting, and said, "Classmate Gu, let me first wish you a happy birthday. This jade pendant is my favorite. "My dear, I won't go to your birthday party. I don't like to get involved in your big family's affairs."
"You...remember?" Hearing this, Gu Miaoting was a little happy.
"I barely remember." Bai Che smiled and said, "You are a good girl."
Gu Miaoting didn't pay attention to the jade pendant that Bai Che gave her at first. When she saw the dragon blood jade, she couldn't help being surprised and said, "Bai Che, I... I also have a jade pendant that is exactly the same."
This surprised Bai Che. When he looked at the jade pendant that Gu Miaoting took off from her neck, he felt even more mysterious.
"My father found this from a mysterious seller at that time. Wearing it can keep people mentally awake." Gu Miaoting explained.
"I see." Bai Che nodded and said, "Then I am troubled."
"No, no," Gu Miaoting said, "I'm very happy if you remember my birthday. I...I'll give you my jade pendant."
Bai Che shook his head and said, "How could you give me a gift on your birthday?"
"I'm happy." Gu Miaoting said.
Bai Che couldn't resist her, so he had to accept it in the end, but he carved a crooked word "白" on the dragon blood jade, and Gu Miaoting also carved a word "Gu", as if they had exchanged tokens.
"Tomorrow..." Gu Miaoting said timidly, "Bai Che, can you play with me?"
"I said I don't want to go to your house..." Bai Che shook his head and refused.
"No, not to my house." Gu Miaoting said with a smile, "I want to go to the amusement park in Dongcheng District."
Hearing this, Bai Che nodded.
"Then I'll wait for you tomorrow and go choose a topic." Gu Miaoting smiled, her smile as bright as a flower.
Bai Che looked at Gu Miaoting's back thoughtfully. He smiled unconsciously. If the real Gu Miaoting looked like this, what else would he refuse? He would wake up laughing from his dreams.
This fantasy made Bai Che once think that he had got the script of a cool male protagonist. He had a good brother, a girl who liked him, and most importantly, he was good-looking and a wealthy daughter. He also had a mentor who valued him, and he was a top student... .All this actually makes me feel a little happy and reluctant to miss Shu.
"This illusion of yours is really bad." Bai Che complained, "Do you want to trap me here forever?"
Bai Che put on the dragon blood jade given to him by Gu Miaoting. A sudden change occurred. Bai Che felt that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth suddenly became much richer, and a large amount of spiritual energy submerged into his body.
Gradually, Bai Che saw a person from birth to death, and then turned into bones; he saw vegetation from sprouting to withering, and then decaying into mud; he saw the sea turning into land, and the land turned into mountains; he saw the establishment of a dynasty to its collapse. , and then re-establish...
In an instant, the scene in front of me disappeared. The door of the dormitory was still open, and the ginkgo leaves were still flying in the wind...
"Is this time?" Bai Che murmured, "Under time, everything will pass away. It may seem like nothing, but it has become a part of time."
"Time, do you have an end?" Bai Che looked at the sky.
