Chapter IX 1024, No
Rose lay in Robert's arms, looked at Tao Yuan's back in the rain, and asked quietly:
"Dad, Uncle Tao will be okay with him. ”
Robert curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and whispered:
"Don't worry, my little Rose, he's strong, both physically and mentally, we don't need to worry about him, he'll be back soon. ”
In the rain.
The wind swept the rain curtain and whipped Tao Yuan's body diagonally, instantly soaking his whole body.
The cold enveloped everything about him, body and mind.
In the midst of the rain and arrows, Tao Yuan ran wildly, picked up a big stone on the shore, and went straight to the rough sea.
With a "poof" sound, Tao Yuan jumped high and jumped directly into the deep blue and dark water.
At this moment, it is the peak of low tide, and the wreckage of Flight 9527 is not too far from the shore.
Tao Yuan hugged the big rock, against the undercurrent seawater, walked underwater, and approached Flight 9527 at the fastest speed.
The water was getting deeper and deeper, and he had even begun to lose the pressure of the ubiquitous water, as if it was about to squeeze out his internal organs.
The light was getting dimmer, and even when he got under Flight 9527, it was difficult to see the outline of the plane sinking into the water.
Fortunately, the golden snake-like lightning in the sky danced tirelessly all the time, flashing and flashing, allowing Tao Yuan to see the underwater world like a slide.
The silhouette of Flight 9527 resembles a black castle, half-standing under the sea, swaying from side to side with the waves.
This is not Tao Yuan's destination, what he wants to see is not this 9527 flight, but other possibilities.
Bypassing the wreckage of Flight 9527, Tao Yuan already felt that his chest was suffocating abnormally at this time, and the feeling of desperate need to breathe made him want to throw away the stone in his hand several times and rush to the sea.
However, they were all endured by Tao Yuansheng.
A bolt of lightning flashed by, illuminating the underwater world.
Tao Yuan saw everything in front of him and verified his guess.
The stone slipped in his hand, and his body was quickly lifted up by the sea and came to the surface.
The waves under the strong wind are so rampant, like a mad bull, rolling and stirring irregularly.
Tao Yuan's body lay quietly on the frantic water, like a dead corpse.
He knew that it would be impossible for him to forget the picture of the lightning under the sea in his life.
It was the wreckage of the planes piled up and crushed together, and it was impossible to tell at a glance how many planes had been killed.
But Tao Yuan is sure that in those wreckage, the side of the body on the left side reads 9527, and the one on the right spray paints 1573.
He lay on the rippling waves, and in his mind the words that Sado had said in the stone corridor at the entrance of the dungeon:
"Time is a circle that follows from end to end, and people are developing endlessly within the prescribed path......"
Yes, Tao Yuan now believed in the words of the Sadona Divine Stick.
Here, time seems to turn into a small circle from end to end, encircling itself, encircling 9527, and encircling Flight 1573.
"So, didn't I travel back in time, I just stayed in a fixed time frame and watched the same thing happen over and over again?"
"Although time has gone back to the past, everything that was once has not been extinguished, every crashed flight is here, the wound on my arm has healed, everything that should have happened has happened, this is not an infinite possible time circle, but fixed, fixed everything. ”
A person who never believes in fate and will never succumb to fate suddenly finds that fate is around him, enveloping everything, and that kind of frustration is enough to make people lose everything, including the fighting spirit that was once invincible.
Tao Yuan seemed to have given up on himself, he didn't try to swim back, and even he hoped that he would fall asleep like this, and then drown in the huge waves, no longer paying attention to what was happening in front of him.
"Click... Boom!"
It was so deafening that the sound exploded in the sky with a long tone of thunder, and the bright light shone on the earth, although it was only for a moment, but it still illuminated.
Tao Yuan opened his eyes suddenly, he looked at the lightning traces that were disappearing in the sky, and his mind turned sharply:
"No, this is an illusion, it is never real, if it is true, then I wait here for a few months, won't I be able to see another self? I should not be here at this time, so I don't belong here, then my appearance is a change in itself.
With the change, can it still be a circle? Maybe it still is, but never again, because I'm here!"
Tao Yuan's eyes were bright, but there was no warmth in those eyes, and he smiled at the corners of his mouth, but there was no tenderness in that smile.
Like a lone wolf standing on the edge of a cliff with no way out, he turned back and smiled at his pursuers.
You die, I die, this is a multiple-choice question, even if the other party is an invisible "fate".
When he figured this out and made his choice, he remembered where he was now.
Floating in the ocean in the middle of a storm is never fun.
He hurriedly reached out, took off his shoes and hung them around his neck, opened the mechanisms on his two calves, and immediately grew two webbed-like things on the soles of his feet, which made it easier for him to ride the wind and waves on the rough waves.
Return to the triangular cave again.
Tao Yuan walked through the warm bonfire with a frozen face, without the slightest lingering. The victims were already asleep, and the day's fright and fatigue had left them unable to support their eyelids. And for a stranger like Tao Yuan to go crazy and rush into the storm, it will not affect their mood to sleep.
Coming to the place where Eri Ellijie left a message before, Tao Yuan picked up a stone without thinking, and carved on it:
"1024, you can only be liberated if you don't enter the island. ”
At the end of the sentence, he depicts a wolf totem with simple lines, which is a symbol that belongs only to him.
Such a sentence, if Tao Yuan on 1573 saw it, he would definitely choose to believe it very carefully.
In Tao Yuan's view, he appeared at a time and place where he should not have appeared, so if he wants to get out of this circle of time, the most important thing is to change the starting point, that is, to change everything he did after coming to this cave on the day of the 1573 crash.
Robert didn't sleep, he watched Tao Yuan come back with water dripping all over his body, and even carved words, he didn't make a sound, until Tao Yuan finished carving, sat on the ground, lit a cigarette, he wrapped Rose in his coat, and walked over quietly.
"Hey, Tao Yuan, what the hell is going on? It's the first time I've seen you so embarrassed. ”
Tao Yuan looked at Robert and moved the corners of his mouth, it seemed that only the fat man in front of him was the only person he could talk to.
"I saw a lot of wreckage of Flight 9527 and Flight 1573 at the bottom of the sea, and we weren't traveling back in time for a while, but being fooled in a fixed little time circle. ”
His voice was so soft that only Robert in front of him could hear him.
When Robert heard Tao Yuan's words, he didn't make a sound for more than ten seconds, and it took a while to come to his senses, reach out and pick up the cigarette that Tao Yuan lit, take a hard breath, and then whispered:
"Are you telling the truth? The wreckage is there? If that's the case, then we may not really be time traveling, and if it's time traveling, then things that haven't passed shouldn't have happened. ”
Speaking of this, he paused, took another puff on his cigar, and then whispered in a calm voice:
"However, I still don't think you should have written such a paragraph, and I am afraid that it does not make sense. ”
Tao Yuan raised his head and looked at Robert, this fat man made him a little impressed now.
In the face of such a ridiculous thing, this fat man seems to be more receptive to it all than himself.
Is it open-minded, is it smart, or because of weakness, it has long forgotten to resist and chooses to be at peace with what happens?
Tao Yuan didn't know the answer, but he still admired Robert's calmness now.
"Why do you say that?"
When Robert heard Tao Yuan ask, he pointed to the top of the scratch on Ellie's message, and whispered:
"Do you remember when we came here when we were killed, and we saw the scratch at the bottom?
As soon as these words came out, Tao Yuan's eyes widened violently, because he remembered what he had discovered, and the four words that could still be vaguely seen at the front of the random scratches were:
"1024, no. ”
