40,000 Years of Cultivation

"It is my fault."

Seeing the boy begging, the golden tooth boss shivered and lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and said, "Your generation is actually far more fortunate than ours, because you have never seen the past. Good days, I have long been accustomed to the torture of purgatory, and I will never be like me, tossing and turning on every suffocating night, remembering the past, the past and the past.

"If you don't get it, you don't care about losing. If you don't have happiness, you don't care about suffering. If you don't really live, you don't have any fear of death. Ignorance is happiness, ignorance is a gift, and death is the ultimate rest.

"But now...boy, you already know it, you can never forget it, sorry."

"It's okay, I think it's good, really, thank you boss."

Bai Xiaolu choked, "I'm just, I'm just too greedy. I hope that every day, like today, with such clean water and such a peaceful environment, I can play Monopoly with the boss."

"Yes, you are too greedy."

Jin Ya laughed loudly, "This is impossible."

"If time can really go back, and yesterday can really reappear, how good would it be?"

Bai Xiaolu trembled, "Then we can repeat today again and again, regardless of the nuclear war, wasteland and wasteland outside, we have been hiding today, and we have been playing "Monkey Chess". After one game, we will start another game forever. It's all like this.

"No, it's not just that. If time can really go back, maybe we can stop everything, stop the **** nuclear war, stop all disasters that destroy peace and destroy mankind! In that case, maybe the boss can find your wife and My child, my mother will not die, she will lead me to find my father!"

"you're drunk."

The knuckles of the golden teeth boss turned white every inch, suppressing himself forcibly, and said every word, "Yesterday will not reappear, time will not flow back, life is not a game, there is no reason to start again after playing a game."

"Really, really not?"

Bai Xiaolu seemed to be really drunk, his face and eyes were scary, and he screamed like a little beast that fell into a trap and struggling, "You and my brother are both'powerful', and you are not all capable. Very powerful, can manipulate the "four basic forces", even move mountains and seas, draw strength from the sun, moon and stars? Why can't there be a super power that can reverse time and change everything, why!"

"Because the mystery of time is far more complicated, obscure and mysterious than the mystery of space. According to Yuri’s speculation, unless we can unify the four fundamentals of'strong interaction force, weak interaction force, electromagnetic force and gravity. Power, and then use the power of the heart to promote and increase, and to fully decipher and integrate the theory of ‘great unification’, will it be possible to pry into the mystery of time by a billionth."

The Jinya boss sighed, "This is impossible, at least, it is impossible on earth."

"It's impossible on'earth'?"

Bai Xiaolu keenly grasped the point, and his eyes bloomed with an unstoppable edge, "What do you mean, it is impossible on'earth', so where is it possible?"

"This…"

The Jinya boss shook his steaming head, hesitated for a while, and said, "Yuri is a demon, but he is also an out-and-out genius. He has done a lot of research on the origin of superpowers in Camp X. He has drawn a lot of extremely interesting speculations. One of them is that he believes that the superpower comes from outside the sky, that is, in the depths of the universe, among the stars. It is the meteorite that brings the superpower to the earth."

"what?"

Bai Xiaolu's eyes widened and he stammered, "Meteor, meteorite?"

"Yes, do you know how the full-scale thermonuclear war broke out?"

The golden tooth boss stretched out two fists together and wrestled with each other. "At the beginning of the 21st century, the major powers of human civilization did collide and friction with each other, and even caused many small-scale conflicts and proxy wars, but they all had each other. The huge nuclear arsenal and missile defense system are in the terrorist balance of'strategic nuclear deterrence.' No one wants to die with the other party. A full-scale thermonuclear war may not break out so early.

"However, on the eve of the war, a small-scale meteorite rain penetrated into the atmosphere, attacking the missile defense bases and nuclear arsenals of the major powers with great precision, breaking the balance, and then it was'boom boom boom boom boom', and the earth surfaced. Make a piece of scorched earth.

"Yuri believes that it is these meteorites that have broken the balance, or meteorites from the same direction for decades before and after, have brought some extremely special things from the depths of the universe, slowly changing the body and soul of some human beings, and finally reached Critical, the birth of the'capable person', or'new human being'."

"There is such a thing!"

This is the first time Bai Xiaolu hears such a statement. It is strange to think about it, "However, in recent decades, there has not been a large-scale meteorite rain attack on the earth. A few meteorites can accurately hit each. A powerful nuclear arsenal and a missile defense center?"

"It's weird, right?"

Jinya Old Avenue, "So, Yuri is very suspicious that these meteorites are not formed naturally, but some kind of weapon, from the depths of the universe...another civilization, another kind of intelligent precision-guided weapon.

"Yuri believes that since humans rely on the fragments of these meteorites, they can master a certain degree of superpower. If they can trace their origins, find the source of meteorites, and find another civilization, another kind of starry wisdom, there may be hope. Who knows the mystery of the "Four Fundamental Forces" and even the "Great Unification Theory"?"

"and so-"

Bai Xiaolu became excited all of a sudden and became wise. "If you want to reverse time, you must go to the depths of the universe, at the end of the stars, to find a higher level of civilization and wisdom!"

"Don't get excited, kid, don't get excited."

The Wasteland Overlord tried his best to comfort the boy, "This is just Yuri's guess. It is his crazy nonsense when he is extremely excited. What's more, how can you go to the depths of the universe, the end of the stars?"

"Why is it impossible?"

Bai Xiaolu looked at the strong chess on the ground, and clenched a chess piece firmly in his palm, squeezing out blood, "As long as I can reverse time and save everything, I can eat any suffering, I am not afraid of any pain, and I am willing to pay any price! "

"It will be a very far, very far journey."

The golden tooth boss looked at Bai Xiaolu with intense pain on his face, and shook his head and said, "Little devil, you will lose a lot of things, maybe everything."

"Is there anything else I can lose?"

Bai Xiaolu looked at his bleeding palm and grinned, "Also, as long as you go back in time and reappear yesterday, you can find everything you lost, isn't it?"

…

That night, the boy dreamed again.

This time is a very good dream, so good that I don't want to wake up.

He dreamed that the thermonuclear war had not broken out. The small mountain village where they lived was full of beautiful flowers. At the foot of the mountain were patches of colorful orchards and farmland, and the air was full of tangy fragrance.

He is separated from his brother, his brother is a handsome young man, his sister’s legs are sharp, his mother is not dead or crazy, the family sits on a picnic halfway up the mountain, watching the people working hard at the foot of the mountain, mother I sang a lot of songs with my sister, but he and his brother just smirked and drank sweet and sour fruit wine.

Ah, and dad, they found dad, dad is a burly middle-aged man like a mountain, he has a shaggy beard, he smells a bit heavy, he looks like a golden-toothed boss-of course the black-haired, dark-eyed, yellow-skinned version, dad He speaks loudly, laughs loudly, and teaches them to play "Monkey Chess". He, brother and dad play together.

This dream is so beautiful, so good that the boy knows that it is not true subconsciously, but it does not prevent the boy from keeping all the laughter and tears in the dream, in the good old days.

Finally, the dream is about to end.

The sun hangs down, dragging the boy's shadow to grow a long one, like a black snake.

"Don't you want to end like this?"

Suddenly, the vague shadow wriggled like a poisonous snake.

"Hey?"

The boy's eyes widened and startled.

"If you want all of this to become reality, and to really reappear yesterday, can all joy and happiness loop infinitely?"

His shadow continued to ask him.

In the dream, all absurdity seemed normal, and the boy's cowardice turned into curiosity. Bai Xiaolu asked, "Who are you?"

The shadow smiled.

Bai Xiaolu knew for the first time that his own shadow could laugh, and laughed so... weird.

"I am you."

The shadow said in a low and charming voice, "You will be after hundreds of millions of years."

"what?"

Bai Xiaolu was stunned and stammered, "After hundreds of millions of years, how could I, you, how could you—"

"do not waste time."

The shadow said, "You don’t know how many lives I have burned and how many planets I sacrificed before I can send you a message from hundreds of millions of years later... During these billions of years, you and I have done very well, but I want to be thorough. If you reverse time and restart everything, "very good" is not enough, we have to do better...Hey, what are you doing? I extinguished hundreds of millions of stars and paid such a heavy price, just to pay the price of hundreds of millions of years ago. Say a few words to yourself, but you actually didn't care and lost your mind?"

"No, I'm watching it."

Bai Xiaolu said, "Did you not see it?"

"it?"

The shadow was stunned, "I can't see something, just say something!"

"Vulture."

Bai Xiaolu stared at him and couldn't help but said, "A vulture with watery eyes that is so big, you didn't even see it?"

"The eyes are watery... very cheap and coquettish... vultures?"

The shadow was silent for a moment, and his voice suddenly became sharp and indignant. "Say, what is it doing, and tell me what the **** is this vulture doing!"

"It's spinning in circles, it seems to be dancing, dancing that or something, ballet."

Bai Xiaolu honestly said, "I don't know the specific repertoire. I'm sorry, I can't concentrate on being harassed by it. What did you just say, you are me after hundreds of millions of years, what are you doing?"

The shadow was silent for a long, long, long, long time.

Then, the dream burst into the shadow of the roar.

Bai Xiaolu saw the shadow soaring into the sky, and swallowed the vulture in one bite, as if he was holding the vulture in a sack and beating his head.

"You stalker bastard, you dirty and mean cockroach, you sneaky bacteria, you despicable virus, get out of here, get out of the ripples of time! "

This is the voice of the shadow, for some reason, so angrily.

"Oh, ah, wow, pain, pain, pain, dying, dying, surrendering, surrendering, surrendering, eldest brother, I surrendered. Don't slap your face, I eat with your face! The vulture is so innocent and harmless to humans and animals, how can you bear such a heavy hand? Have you forgotten the vow of'love vultures, everyone is responsible'? It hurts. , Dying to death, help, come here, Hong Chao beats people, Hong Chao beats people to death!"

This, Bai Xiaolu didn't know whose voice was, er, didn't really want to know.

The dream was so inexplicable, and I woke up in a daze, always feeling... weird.

This should have been a pure, bleak, and desperate black story.

It is the story of a boy who lost everything, became completely unrecognizable, tried his best to look back but never looked back, and even forgot who he was.

But since the emergence of the vulture, everything has changed.

It's like a good pot of hot porridge with a mouse poop.
