Dragon Zero

"Don't look at me with this strange look. I'm not the beauty popping out of the flowers." Darren's paired eyes were narrow and unable to open. His pale eyebrows and the sparse beard on the rounded double chin were low. Short, but the skin is delicate and ruddy, like a person who is pampered all year round.

Bing Zhixie's eyes changed from a brief surprise to a scrutinizing suspicion: "You are Darren's partner."

"I'm Darren, you should be more polite to me, you shouldn't call me by name directly." Although he said so, his appearance did not show anger.

Bing Zhixie said, "Although I can't think of a reason for you to deceive me, Darren deserves to be dead for hundreds of years."

"Hundreds of years!" Darren Pei squinted his eyes and raised his fingers to count the time: "I have been here for hundreds of years! Tsk tsk, wait, wait, how many years is the Holy Garden calendar this year?"

"Shengyuan calendar 7407." Bing Zhixie said: "It's probably June 6th, or June 7th."

Darren was worthy to shake his fat head, and the white fat on his chin swayed along with him: "No, no, the month and day is not important... I didn't expect it, it's only a few hundred years, I thought it was thousands It’s been thousands of years."

"Huh?" Bing Zhixie did not expect that he was lamenting that the time was too long, but too short, and then questioned again: "Are you really Darren's partner? I saw the portrait of Darren's partner in Putiste Manor. Although I didn’t pay too much attention, but with your appearance..."

"Putiste...is that Apple Island Manor? You have been there, no wonder." Darren deserved to mutter.

"Is there anything strange?"

Darren was not worthy to answer the question: "What did Apple Island Manor paint like? Isn't it the kind of person who seems to be wise at a glance?"

"..." Bing Zhixie said, "I vaguely remember that the portrait was painted relatively young, not yet your current age."

"So it's like that. Um..." He lowered his head and thought.

Bing Zhixie carefully observed the indoor situation, and saw that the old man was still thinking, he asked again: "It is recorded in the book that Darren was worthy to die in the hands of a killer with the strength of a berserker. Why did you appear here again? What?"

"The killer? Who, me?" Darren pointed at himself: "I died in the killer's hands. Why don't I know this?"

"It's spread like this in the world. There are also books and publications that describe it vividly, including Shengyuan." Bing Zhixie said.

Darren’s matching eyebrows were raised, thinking about it on the left and on the right: "Well, I don’t remember, maybe it happened, it’s been too long for me to remember."

"what?"

"I mean someone has murdered me more than once or twice." Darren said: "There are many people who are jealous, jealous of me in all aspects. I have always acted out of place and have been squeezed out by others. It doesn't matter. , That’s not an important thing either."

Bing Zhixie was speechless to his answer and explained: "I mean you have lived for hundreds of years now. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Yes, yes, of course I understand." Darren duo lowered his head and played with his fingers, muttering in his mouth, not knowing what he was talking about. After a while, he said to Bing Zhixie in a depressed mood: "Actually, I'm already dead...or, I can only rely on this flower to live here."

"this is…"

"The Flower of Time."

"Is there really a flower of time in the world?" Bing Zhixie was neither unexpected nor unexpected, without much emotional change on his face.

Darren partnered: "Yeah, I'm very surprised. I was so surprised when I found it in the gap of time. This flower that takes time as a nutrient, I always thought it only exists in other people's affairs, but the fact is It really exists."

"Take...time as your nourishment!" Bing Zhixie was really shocked this time, and it was the first time he heard this saying: "You mean to take time to grow and to feed on time?"

"Yes, that's how you understand it."

Bing Zhixie's eyes widened and stared at this variegated flower. It was obvious that there were countless colors on the flowers, but these countless colors seemed to be just one color. From this point alone, Bing Zhixie could Feel its magic.

Darren was worthy to see his expression and smiled happily: "No one can describe this flower, because it is really impossible to describe it in words. You can come up with 10,000 words to describe it, but no matter how you describe it, you can’t describe it. Describe the real it. This is like time. Time is just a pronoun. This pronoun cannot truly describe all of time, that is, the most real time."

Bing Zhixie asked: "You said it grows in the crevices of time. Didn't it grow in the soil? How did you find it?"

"How can I describe to you how I found it?" Darren thought for a while and asked, "Have you ever touched a dog? Or any other furry animals."

"Have."

Darren deserves to say: "Time pushes the order, it's like stroking along the dog's fur, silky and smooth. This is how the realistic timing flows in one direction. But what about the other way? Hehe, sorry, the timing can't be caressed the other way around. , Because it is a law, a law, a..." He shook his head and smiled: "I said, I can never find an absolutely exact word to describe it. Or I can only use the'truth' to get close to it infinitely. , But after all, it still cannot be fully referred to."

Bing Zhixie seemed to understand but said, "You still haven't said the origin of the flower of time."

Darren Pei said as he thought about how to say: "Assuming that the time can be reversed, the flower is neither in the reverse time sequence nor in the forward sequence. It exists in the parallel gap between the forward and the reverse."

"Then how did you find it?" Bing Zhixie asked.

Darren was worthy to say: "This is due to a magical encounter in my destiny." He suddenly became silent, and Bing Zhixie did not bother. Until a long time later, he said: "I don't know how to tell you this story, but you have to know that the timing is not absolutely impossible to disrupt. I found it in the chaotic timing, the seed of the flower of time. , In the physical space where there is no appearance, maybe you have the opportunity to take a look at my notes, and you can probably understand a little bit of the mystery."

"The Flower of Time, many people in history said that they have seen the Flower of Time."

"I don't know if they have actually met, but there are always many liars."

Bing Zhixie thought for a while, in fact he didn't care about this issue very much now, just thought it was incredible. The most important thing now was the situation in front of him. When he was about to ask the question in his mind, the other party answered first.

"I know what you want to say." Darren supported: "When you came to this floor, I knew you were in trouble, and it was very, very scary, and you couldn't solve the trouble." He asked: "Do you know what place it is?"

"Temple of Sand."

Darren is worthy to smile: "If you say that, you can’t say that it’s wrong. But you don’t understand what you’re going through. Let me tell you briefly, you’re in an environment that is based on time, space, and perception. In the superimposed triple maze. Every step you take in this long corridor is not the one you know. As far as I am concerned, your knowledge level cannot support your wisdom to figure this out."
