Chapter 1319: Essence
Dragon Slayer.
For the vast majority of living beings in this world, death is a very heavy topic......
There are very few people who can face their death calmly......
Because of this, few people think about when they will die, or how long they will live.
Is it twenty years, is it thirty years?
Or forty years, fifty years?
Or do you say you can live to 70 years, 80 years?
Or can you live your 100th birthday peacefully?
Very few people really think about these questions, not because they can't think of them, but because the vast majority of people don't want to think about them......
Just like our relatives and friends or those cute pets, we all know that one day, they will leave us, but we rarely think about it, and most of us will subconsciously avoid the topic of death......
The so-called great terror between life and death, is that......
People are always instinctively afraid of death, or they always avoid death-related topics as much as possible......
However, even so, death still comes......
No one can avoid the invitation of death, and no one can prevent it from coming......
Many times, people will always pity those who are terminally ill, because when they have a terminal illness, their lives seem to have entered a desperate countdown, maybe a few days, maybe a few months. Or maybe you can live for a few years......
But. It doesn't matter what the time is. will put the patient in a kind of pain that is difficult to extricate from......
It will also make the people around you feel the fragility of life from the bottom of their hearts......
Speaking of which, this is also a kind of human sorrow......
Because no one knows when they will die, however, it is precisely because they do not know how long they will live, so they can enjoy life with optimism......
On the contrary, if you know in advance when you will die, no matter how long this time is, it will also make people feel suppressed and feared from the heart......
It's like for someone in his forties. In fact, being able to live to the age of seventy is enough for him to be satisfied......
However, if you tell him in advance that he can only live to be seventy years old, then I am afraid that this person's heart will definitely be very depressed......
Not knowing how long you can live, and knowing how long you have to live, are essentially two completely different concepts, the former representing the infinite unknown and the future. The latter represents a predestined fate......
The future is always full of hopes, but fate often brings nothing more than despair......
Sometimes. It is obviously the same thing, but different expressions can lead to completely different results......
For example, in online novels, some authors like to engage in a surprise attack route, allowing the protagonist to encounter some unexpected dilemmas at every turn, and then find a way to solve the dilemma, while there are other types of authors who often prefer to give readers a preventive shot or something before abusing the master......
One of the most typical examples is to add something like this at the end of a paragraph......
What he didn't know was that it was precisely because of his thoughts at this moment that he completely missed a great opportunity, or rather, it was because of his negligence that he inevitably fell into a huge crisis later......
What so-and-so didn't see was a faint smile that had recently appeared on the other party when he turned around......
Speaking of which, from the reader's point of view, they tend to prefer the former over the latter......
Vaccinations are not popular with everyone in many cases......
Even, the vast majority of people don't like vaccinations with negative information too much, and such vaccinations always make people vaguely feel scared......
For example, for elementary school students, they would rather carry out a surprise attack when there is a blood test at school, rather than want the teacher to announce the news a week in advance, because the former is often just a prick, and the latter may mean a long period of inner anxiety......
Speaking of which, it's the same for online novels, but any sentence full of fatalistic tone is always not so likable, and relatively speaking, that kind of sudden encounter is often easier to accept......
And people are actually the same, many times, foreseeable disasters will always make people's hearts panic, but sudden death will make people less nervous......
However, for the vast majority of people, no matter how deliberately they avoid the topic of death, as long as there are no accidents, then they will inevitably foresee their own death little by little......
With the aging of the body and the proliferation of diseases, everyone can slowly feel the approach of death, and everyone will inevitably know that their death is imminent......
Almost everyone can't resist the power of death, but few people think about where the source of death is.
Human life is very long, but few people really think about why they die, or what is the source of death?
Everyone subconsciously regards birth, old age, sickness and death as the laws of nature, which is why few people will ask why death, and few people will think deeply about the meaning of death......
However, at this moment, Wang Yu has found the answer......
The source of death is time!
Yes, time!
Endless, incomparably long time!
Time is a pig-killing knife, although this sentence sounds vulgar, but it is actually a wise saying in the true sense......
This is one of the most terrifying forces of time!
Because time is incomparably long, all the existence that cannot last longer than time is destined to be completely annihilated by time!
It's like hatred between people. Sometimes you can only rely on killing. But there are times. But it can only be helplessly resolved by time......
It's like in a lot of bloody novels, some people go incognito and try their courage in order to take revenge......
In the end, when he was ready to take revenge, he found that time had already completed his revenge for him, because his enemy had already died of old age......
The passage of time will always make everyone helpless......
Time. It's a silent power......
It is always able to quietly take away all the beings in this world when they are not aware of it......
That's the terrible thing about time......
Even those who have been deprived of their lives by time will hardly notice the true face of time......
Because time is too fair and selfless in the eyes of most people......
Incomparable justice to all, incomparable tolerance to all......
Time gives all living beings a life cycle that is not short, and it also gives everyone all kinds of joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and because of this, when time finally packs up this qiē and takes it away, often no one feels that there is anything wrong. Life is born in the long river of the world, so it will naturally be drowned in the long river of time......
The vast majority of people are used to it. They have become accustomed to this law of nature, they have become accustomed to the fact that this is the law of birth, old age, sickness and death......
Even, not only people, but even all kinds of dynasties are also swallowed up in the torrent of time......
However, the most terrifying thing about time is that when it takes away a qiē, it always gives people a sense of taking it for granted, and it always doesn't make people resist it in the slightest......
In this world, all living beings will not be willing to face death, and when they face death, most of them will try their best to break free from the embrace of death, and they will launch a counterattack in any way they want, even at any cost......
Any kind of living being, in the face of the threat of death, is always the most terrible, the so-called trapped beasts are still fighting, those beasts in trouble, often the most terrible existence, they will even be willing to give up part of their body in order to survive, and even willing to endure unimaginable pain......
It's like all kinds of death games in Chainsaw, even if it's a cruel game, but as long as there is the slightest chance to live, the gamer will go all out to try to keep himself alive, even if the price of living may be to make himself a cripple, or to endure unimaginable pain and despair for ordinary people, but they will still try their best to keep themselves alive until the moment when the fire of life is completely extinguished!
Just like ordinary people facing robbers, if the other party is just robbing money, then for ordinary people who are not strong in force, they generally will not choose to resist, and if the other party wants to rob sex, then there will be many people who choose to resist, and if the other party wants to plunder life, then almost everyone will try their best to try to resist the other party's atrocities!
However, the timing is different......
It's completely different......
When facing time, everyone will close their eyes peacefully and leave this world without complaint......
Because, long before they died, their bodies had already been corroded by time little by little......
Because of this, whenever they grow old, their desire to continue living is actually weakened, and for an old man who is dying, the death brought by time is no longer a fear, but an authentic relief!
Yes, relief!
They have had enough of their bodies becoming old and decaying, they have had enough of the strange eyes of young people, they have had enough of lonely and lonely days, they have had enough of the life that they were able to take care of themselves and become a little bit out of control......
As a result, they began to gradually change from fear of death to fearlessness, and even began to look forward to the coming of death......
And that's where time feels the most terrifying......
A young man, if he dies young, then his family. His friends. And his colleagues. They will all cry out for him, and they will all feel that the loss of such a young life is really an injustice of God, and they will all have a feeling similar to resentment......
There is no other reason, because when a person is young, it is often the time when he is full of energy, high spirits, and scolding. Such people, of course, will not be willing to face death, because they still have a good life......
However, if the same thing happens to an old man who is dying, the situation will often be completely different, whether it is relatives, friends or family members, more or less faintly there will be a sense of taking it for granted, maybe it is disrespectful to the deceased, but in the eyes of many people, a dead old man. It was a relief not only for his family, but even for the old man himself......
There is no other reason. Because for the elderly, when their bodies become old little by little, their own enjoyment of life will naturally decrease, and all kinds of desires will also decrease a little bit, and they will begin to be unable to enjoy the happiness of being a human being, or even be able to live alone......
In Wang Yu's view, this is the super-large horror of time......
It was a horror above death!
Death itself is already a terrible thing......
However, time brings something more terrifying than death......
If there is a great horror between life and death, then the horror brought by the long river of time is a horror that surpasses the great horror, a horror that cannot be described in words, and even so terrifying that people cannot perceive this horror......
When time passes in an ordinary way, no one feels this horror, even from a child to an old person, it is difficult for people to feel this terrible power from time......
However, when time works in a way that is not mainstream, then the fangs of time are truly revealed!
In many ancient novels of immortals and monsters, there are often such stories......
When a certain person woke up, he suddenly found that he had suddenly reached a hundred years later......
However, he suddenly found that he was an incomparably special being in this world, no one knew him, he didn't know anyone, all the people he knew in the past were dead, and the people he could see were only the descendants of those people, and the era he used to be had long since disappeared......
The habits of life, the rules of the past, have been completely subverted, and he is like a person who has been completely abandoned by time......
What a terrible thing this loneliness and loneliness is......
How terrifying is this feeling......
If it weren't for someone who had experienced it, it would be completely unimaginable......
In fact, not to mention that it has passed through a hundred years or something, even if a prisoner who has been in prison for several years comes out, it is often very difficult to fully adapt to life after being released from prison, especially without the help of family and friends......
And many people always yearn for the life of traveling back to ancient times, but they rarely really think about what the so-called travel represents......
Coming to the past, changing history, it sounds beautiful, but in fact, people who really travel to ancient times, maybe they can't even understand the people there, even if they are college students in modern times, but in ancient times, there is no hand-to-hand calligraphy, basically it is a proper treatment of illiteracy, modern knowledge, is not enough for the traveler to obtain identity and status, unless you can cross to the person who has a certain identity, otherwise it will definitely be a tragedy......
In fact, for the vast majority of people, leaving their familiar Yiqiē and coming to a completely unfamiliar place, or even a world that can only be understood in history books or TV dramas, will definitely be a huge cup......
It was an unimaginably great fear!
It's an ultimate nightmare that you can't wake up from!
Even the most nervous person is afraid that it is almost difficult to resist this horror......
Imagination is always beautiful, but reality is often extremely cruel......
The vast majority of people who yearn for crossing are actually just Ye Gong and a good dragon in essence, in fact, if there are really traversers who exist in zài. Whether it's soul piercing or real body crossing. Basically, the probability of being killed is far greater than that of Feihuang Tengda. In fact, basically as soon as they cross into a strange world, they feel a nervous breakdown and commit suicide, and there will definitely not be a minority, after all, the difference in living habits is easy to detect, and it is often difficult to really integrate into a place because it is not a stranger in the same place......
However. This horror ......
But it's just a little joke played by time......
The horror of this kind of time is even far greater than life and death!
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Dragon Slayer.
Wang Yu was ...... for a long time before
I've been thinking about a question......
That's ......
What is the true meaning of time?
What is the essence of time?
He got a lot of answers to this question......
Time is a change of order......
Time is a change of power......
Time is duckweed that sneaks into the night with the wind......
Time is a silent drizzle......
He knows very well that if he wants to survive the torrent of time, he must truly understand the nature of time, and only by truly understanding time can he understand the rules of time, even if he cannot really manipulate it, but at least he can avoid this terrible power......
It's like human beings always lack the means to fight against natural disasters. But it's one thing to lack the means, but it's possible to circumvent and guide. Just like in the face of a torrent, the construction of a dam is a very good practice, through the prediction of the weather, the reinforcement work is carried out in advance, to ensure that the danger of natural disasters is minimized......
And so is the power of time......
For Wang Yu, time is an irresistible force, but this does not mean that he is completely helpless in the face of time, he knows very well that as long as he can understand some of the rules of time, he can be freed from the current torrent of time......
Because of this, Wang Yu's thinking has been running at a high speed almost all the time......
Countless answers, one after another, appeared in his mind, and one after another was ruled out......
At this moment, Wang Yu's thinking and consciousness have reached a state of limits......
His body had completely disappeared, and because of this, all his thoughts had been completely freed......
Thinking at high speed to the extreme, hundreds or even thousands of tens of thousands of thoughts can flash almost every second......
He had never felt so powerful......
However, I never felt so empty......
This contradictory feeling gave him a strong sense of disbelief from the bottom of his heart......
On one side is a powerful force, and on the other side is a looming annihilation......
This feeling makes Wang Yu have an experience like riding a roller coaster, which is a wonderful feeling of panic accompanied by excitement......
In this state, Wang Yu is constantly looking for the truth represented by time......
However, even so, he never got an answer!
It's not because he can't find the answer......
Rather, it's because it's the opposite......
There is so much about the nature of time......
Time seems to be everywhere, and it seems that everything in this world is more or less inseparable from the existence of time......
Just like the way of heaven described by Lao Tzu, the so-called Tao itself is a ubiquitous thing, how can such a thing be named, and how can it be defined?
This is true of the way of heaven, this is the case of space, and the same is true of time......
At this moment, Wang Yu felt as if he was facing an open-ended answer question, and the scope of the question was so wide that he didn't know what angle to answer......
What is the essence of time?
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind......
Almost instantly, this aura spread through his mind, and then almost instantly, his mind and consciousness resonated at the same time......
In a trance, he suddenly understood......
The so-called time ...... (To be continued......)
