Chapter 5: Speculation

In the mirror world, on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, the sky is clear, windless, and warm. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Sun Hao slept very badly last night, he missed his family, missed Liu Lu, was scared, confused, and many thoughts could not be eliminated in his mind for a long time, so that he was tired and fell asleep until dawn.

Now that the sun is in the sky, the time is almost one o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Hao finally woke up in a daze, he opened his eyes, looked at the ceiling blankly, and lay down for a long time before getting up.

After getting out of bed, he took out a cigarette, lit it slowly, walked to the window and gently opened the curtains, and suddenly, the harsh sunlight shone into the room.

"It's a beautiful day"

Sun Hao exhaled a puff of smoke and squinted his eyes slightly to look at the outside world, which looked several times brighter than yesterday, becoming more and more real.

"It seems that the mirror world has synchronized a lot again"

Thinking of this, Sun Hao couldn't help but feel a little sentimental, and looked at his right ring finger with complicated eyes, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"Well, it is better to ask for others than for yourself, and I don't believe that God wants to destroy me."

Taking a deep breath, Sun Hao snuffed out the cigarette butt, and tried to summarize what happened during this time while he had just woken up.

First of all, it is the space-time ring, this ring has supreme ability, as long as there is time, you can exchange anything, if there is no time, you can also exchange it with life, but people's lifespan is limited after all, so if you want to become young again, if you want to save your sister, this time must be earned.

However, to gain time, you need to devour the Mirror Ring, which only exists in the Mirror World.

There are only two ways to obtain a mirror ring at the same time, one is for the other party to be willing, and the other is to kill the other party and snatch it.

Thinking about this, Sun Hao couldn't help but take another puff of cigarette into his lungs, and his old skin tightened, as if he was like a worried old man. But in fact, from an outsider's point of view, he is indeed an old man, and it seems that he has not yet adapted to it.

"Ahem"

This puff of cigarette made Sun Hao couldn't help coughing violently, he looked down at the cigarette in his hand, and didn't understand why a cigarette made him so uncomfortable, but when he saw the old arm, he seemed to understand again.

"Whew"

Sighing softly, he hesitated to extinguish the cigarette, and at the same time opened the window to get some fresh air,

The moment the window opened, a cool air entered the room, and he couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, this faint coolness made him suddenly fall into an illusion.

"This world is so real, where am I?"

Is this the mirror world? A 100% replicated world.

Sun Hao couldn't help but think of Wu Ji's description of the mirror world: "All worlds that can be copied, even a book, a movie, a game, a person's dream, etc., are mirror worlds." ”

Thinking of this, Sun Hao couldn't help frowning, and after thinking about it, he really wanted to understand this statement as a parallel space, but in the end, he always felt that things didn't seem to be so simple?

If not, why is he called the Broken Mirror, and the person holding the mirror ring in the mirror is called the Broken Image?

This is clearly the saying that there are two worlds outside the mirror and inside the mirror.

But the next moment, Sun Hao was suddenly shocked in his heart, and kept repeating the words "broken mirror man" and "broken image man" in his mouth.

He hadn't thought about these two words before, but now he thought about them carefully, and suddenly found that this word was very strange, and it didn't seem to be an opposite, to be precise, this opposition was not the opposition between objects and images in physics.

In physics, it is common knowledge that things and images coexist, and there is no image without things, and there must be things if there is an image, which is generally accepted common sense.

But it's different here?

Wu Ji once said that the mirror world is generated based on the original world, which is very similar to the relationship between "object and image".

However, in order to gain time, the Mirror Breaker must devour the Mirror Ring of the Mirror Breaker, and by the same logic, the Mirror Breaker must also devour the Mirror Breaker's Time and Space Ring in order to gain time.

Then, the final result is either that the Mirror Breaker destroys the mirror world, or the Mirror Breaker destroys the mirror world.

But there is a contradictory logical problem here, if it is said that the mirror breaker destroys the mirror world, he can still exist, which makes sense, but if the image breaker kills the original world, it still exists, which creates a contradiction.

It's like, if you destroy a mirror, the image in the mirror will disappear naturally, but if this image destroys something, why does it still exist, and where does the image come from without it?

"Did I misunderstand from the beginning, or did Wu Ji hide something?"

After Sun Hao thought about it to no avail, he couldn't help but think back to how he felt when he first obtained the space-time ring.

"I remember when I first heard about the mirror world, my feeling was that the original world was the core world, and the other worlds were just duplicate worlds, but this world was really real......"

"Do you mean?" Sun Hao suddenly thought of a possibility, "This statement of the broken mirror man is just a relative statement. ”

What is Relative Statement?

Looking at the original world, he is a broken mirror, and the mirror world is fake; But looking at the mirror world, the other party is also a broken mirror, and the original world is also fake;

Thinking of this, Sun Hao didn't dare to think about it anymore, lit a cigarette again, and quickly took two puffs, trying to keep himself from thinking wildly, but the more he didn't think about it, the more deeply imprinted this thought became in his mind, tormenting him, making him afraid, confused, powerless, and decadent.

If the mirror world is said to be a parallel world, he can accept it; If the original world is the only one, and the mirror world is copied from the original world, he can also accept it.

But now this thought told him, telling him that the original world was likely to be a mirror world, and he couldn't accept it.

He wanted to know the answer, but when he looked at the ring finger of his right hand, he held back.

The reason for holding back is his fear of knowing the outcome, and at the same time his dissatisfaction with Wu Ji, the former is about the true answer, the latter is about the inner measure.

He knows himself very well, knows that he is an indecisive person, to put it bluntly, he can't do great things, and he doesn't have the courage to succeed.

However, he also knew that he had never been a selfish person, at least he would not do things against his heart for his selfishness, and it was precisely this that he could get Liu Lufang's heart.

Therefore, whether it is the former or the latter, he is afraid to face it, he is afraid that when the situation is out of control, he will change his inner thoughts, so that he will fail his loved ones.

"But if I don't change, how can I become young again? Just save my sister? And if the speculation is true, how can I protect myself? ”

That thought still took root, and Sun Hao unconsciously fell into a contradiction again, this contradiction made him painful and depressed.

When you don't have money at first, is it contradictory to quit or insist?

Then, after getting old by paying 50 years of life, so as to get a lot of money to change your fate, will there be a contradiction between choosing to stay or choosing to leave?

Finally, in the face of earning time, is it still contradictory whether to kill or not to kill?

The most important thing is that, for some reason, the phrase that others are hell has also taken root in his mind, and he asks himself, if someone asks him to hand over the space-time ring now, he is a hundred unwilling.

Similarly, when this truth falls on others, he can also imagine that the other party will definitely not be willing, and in the end he will definitely face killing, either killing the other party or being killed.

"Why am I contradictory? Again and again......" Sun Hao was very uncomfortable in his heart, his expression was hideous, "What happened to me, what would he do if he replaced it with my clone?" ”

"My Replica ......"

As soon as these words came out, Sun Hao was stunned, and he instantly thought of Li Qiang, who he had seen last night.

"Since it is my copy, since the historical background is the same, what will he do in the same situation?"

Sun Hao was scared, he looked at his old appearance in the mirror, and he was scared in his heart, at this moment he suddenly regretted why he pulled Li Qiang last night to ask what he shouldn't have asked, exposing himself.

In the same way, he was also deeply curious in his heart, he wanted to get answers from the other party, and wanted to know how the other party would choose?

Selfishly, he really wants the other party to kill him, so that if he fights back, he will have no guilt.

He also thought that the other party had better grow old, so that when he really had to face killing, he would have the strength to fight.

It's just that these are all conjectures or fantasies after all, and he has no way of knowing the other party's choice.

"No, I can't stay here and do nothing." Sun Hao gritted his teeth and decisively snuffed out the cigarette butt, "I have to be prepared, no matter how the other party chooses, I must be as prepared as possible, and I must also protect myself." ”

Thinking of this, Sun Hao immediately began to pack up his things and prepare to leave here, at this moment, he completely forgot about Wu Ji's reminder to keep quiet, and even became a little flustered.
