"Because I asked my parents before if I had a brother, and they told me that I had had a miscarriage, and the fetus was still a boy. They even thought of a name, and it was called Hu Qingxia."
"There is even his tombstone in a suburban cemetery. I went to see it. It is indeed named after Hu Qingxia. It is estimated that the normal delivery time is close to my brother's original birthday - so the conclusion is obvious. The one who has not yet been
The stillborn fetus that was completely developed and lost its life was the brother who disappeared beside me. His fate had changed and deflected so much that his life had ended in a hurry before it even began."
"I understand... So, as long as people have existed, they will still exist to this day. It's just unclear how much of their original destiny they can retain, whether they are dead or alive at this point in time."
Zhang Ke pondered thoughtfully:
"But, why did all this happen? Since your brother's destiny has changed since his birth, the fate node that changed everything must have been at least nearly twenty years ago. This is too difficult to understand.
... Could it be that someone traveled back twenty years and changed certain things, causing a series of butterfly effects to occur?"
Probably because he is used to the cycle of time reincarnation, Zhang Ke is no longer surprised by time travel. Even if he were to experience it in person, he would probably accept it quickly, right? It would be better than having his consciousness suddenly grafted onto another person's body.
It is easier to understand a person's life.
"Time travel...?" Qingyang lowered his head, his face uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
Zhang Ke saw that he was silent for a long time, and noticed that his expression was a little strange, and carefully asked, "Qingyang? What's wrong with you? Did you think of something special?"
"If... it is really due to the butterfly effect caused by time travel, then..." Qingyang raised his head and said with a guilty voice, "It is very likely that the culprit of all this is me."
"Ah??" Zhang Ke was stunned for a moment, and after a moment he came back to his senses and asked, "What does this mean? Did you successfully travel back in time, and it was twenty years ago??"
"No, it's not me to be precise. Otherwise, I wouldn't have so many questions now. If I think about it for myself, I can figure out the connection." Qingyang said, "Actually, in the few days I haven't met you,
In this reincarnation... I went to Biyifeng by myself."
"You... successfully climbed to the top of the mountain this time?" Zhang Ke thought of the inferences Qingyang told him before, and seemed to have guessed something.
"Yes, I was very lucky this time, and I used my strength to the extreme. I actually escaped all the hardships and came to the top of the mountain, and then I saw what I guessed..." Qingyang paused, as if
I am searching for the most suitable adjective in my mind:
"Countless transparent vortices that reflect strange light may be space-time vortices, or they may be wind tunnel vortices caused by faults and distortions in space-time... Of course, it is more likely to be a strange nature that cannot be explained temporarily based on my scientific knowledge.
Phenomenon."
"Where do those whirlpools... lead to?" Hearing this, Zhang Ke couldn't help but gulp down a mouthful of saliva. Relating to the time and space travel they talked about in their previous chat, he seemed to have vaguely guessed the end point of those endless whirlpools.
"I don't know, but this phenomenon can almost verify my initial guess - Biyi Peak is the center point of the boundary where space and time are distorted, deflected or even faulted. No matter what the nature of these vortices is, the time contained in them must be extremely chaotic.
If you interfere with them, you may be able to change time to some extent." Qingyang said:
"I knew that with the equipment I was carrying at the time, it was impossible to investigate the nature of these whirlpools in depth, so I just wanted to observe it with the naked eye for a while. Anyway, the reincarnation was almost over, and I would try to bring more equipment next time
Go up the mountain."
"However, I was so excited at that time that I forgot one thing - Biyi Peak at night is the most dangerous place in the world." Qingyang closed his eyes, his expression looked extremely haggard and scared, his voice trembled,
He couldn't bear to look back and said:
"The next moment, I was pierced by a black shadow, and then countless entangled black shadows crawled all over my body like vines. Once they touched the skin, they turned into the sharpest blades in the world, cutting
My body's flesh and blood fell out piece by piece."
"In an instant, I was cut into tens of thousands of tiny pieces of flesh by the shadows that wrapped around me. But I did not lose consciousness quickly. Instead, I was particularly conscious. My senses were a hundred times sharper than usual, and I could even
I clearly felt the severe pain from every cut, and the whole process was long and long, almost driving me completely crazy."
"But... if you are cut into pieces in an instant, no matter how long the process takes, it should only take a few seconds?" Zhang Ke asked.
"This is the most terrifying place. Obviously I have seen that my vision has been cut into countless pieces, and my body has turned into a mud of flesh and blood, but the pain is like being engraved in my soul and will not follow me.
It disappears as the body dissipates." Qingyang shook his head and said with a somewhat painful expression:
"You haven't experienced it personally, so it's hard to understand. This kind of pain is so vivid that it even stubbornly remains in my memory. Even if I think about it now, the pain will immediately spread from the sealed memory.
Kailai - even though the pain level is less than one percent of what it was at that time, I still feel the pain that I am being delayed, wasted, and eaten away bit by bit at this moment."
Zhang Ke saw that Qingyang's body was trembling slightly, his face was pale, cold sweat was streaming down his forehead, and his brows were furrowed. It was obvious that he was in extreme pain, and he didn't seem to be pretending, so he hurriedly said: "
Okay, okay, no need to describe, stop now."
"Well..." Qingyang nodded slightly, but probably because of the severe pain still permeating his whole body, he sat there and took a few breaths before slowly returning to his normal expression and said:
"Afterwards, I guessed what happened to me at that time. I understood that it was the correction device of the world itself, which needed to erase all those who were close to the time vortex and intended to subvert the causal logic of the world. After all, if I really
Traveling through a certain vortex is likely to reach a point in time in the future or past, completely destroying the coherence of time."
"But, hasn't the continuity of time been destroyed now?" Zhang Ke said, "It has become a circular circle."
