Golden Age 36 Arabian Nights
"Are you alright?"
"It's nothing," obviously he was so scared that he almost peed his pants just now, but in front of Qiao Yiyu, Han Le still pretended to be indifferent, "Just invite me to watch a movie." β
Qiao Yiyu obviously understands what the so-called watching a movie is, but it's okay, at least Han Le is fine now, and there are no traces of injury on his body. She turned her head and said to Qin Jinwan, "If you want to know anything, you can come and ask me directly, he is just an ordinary person." β
"As long as it has something to do with you, he's not so ordinary," the chief's words came directly into the room through the microphone, "and we can't take your word for it alone. β
"There's no point in you doing this," Qiao Yiyu really didn't want to say these words, but she had to say it now, "What should be said, what can be said, I said it three years ago, and you promised me at that time, saying that you would not force me, and you would respect my personal rights." β
"Yes," the old man said slowly, "but you should understand that I don't have the right to vouch for the organization." β
"I've heard enough of this kind of word play...... even Qiao Yiyu can't stand this blatant shamelessness, "When you make a promise, it's always an organization, and when you fulfill a promise, it's always a personal ......"
"You can blame me, it's my personal sorry for you," the chief even had sincere apologies in his tone when he said this, "but since I sit in this position, I have to take responsibility for this country." β
"Is it as serious as you say?" Qiao Yiyu sneered, "Before you found me, I had been living in this country for more than forty years, couldn't my previous actions show my good intentions?" β
"If you are an ordinary person, forty years is indeed enough," said the old man, "but you are different...... Forty years is just the beginning for you, and you've participated in polar bear ...... before."
"You know best about polar bears, I was separated three years ago, and since then I have been doing it according to the policy you set."
The other party was silent for a long time: "I know this, but it's not enough." β
"Not enough, what do you mean by that?"
"You're so smart, you should know what I mean."
Qiao Yiyu has no habit of guessing other people's minds, and she has never thought she is smart: "I don't understand what you say." β
Qiao Yiyu ......" This is the first time the chief has called her by this name, and he used to call her Xiaoyu, "Let me tell you this, the year you first came to Earth, I was just a schoolboy, and at that time, I would never have dreamed that I would sit in this position 60 years later." When I first heard your name more than a decade ago, you were just an ordinary person, but within a few years, your name was mentioned by every member of the polar bear family...... Is there anyone in the world who doesn't recognize the polar bear logo? If the government doesn't intervene, in a few years, you'll have more members than party members......"
Qiao Yiyu seemed to understand what the old man meant: "But that's not my factor, there are hibernation organizations abroad, and there are a lot of people, this is the problem of hibernation itself!" β
"Perhaps," the old man's words were somewhat serious and heavy, "but a country cannot take such a risk...... What's more, you haven't revealed the purpose of your return. β
"I remember saying it many times that there is no purpose," Ms. Qiao said, "and this is an obligation in our time, and if I can't come, I don't want to come." β
"Then you can tell us why there is such an obligation, although for you, we ancient people may be a little behind, but I believe that as long as you say it, we will still understand."
Qiao Yiyu shook his head: "You won't believe it." β
"How do you know we won't believe it if you don't say it?"
"Because I know you," Qiao Yiyu said, "If someone told you 60 years ago that 60 years later, someone was willing to get a terminal illness in order to hibernate today, I'm afraid you wouldn't believe it." β
"But I'd like to hear it anyway."
Qiao Yiyu smiled helplessly, glanced at the video footage again, and said: "You must listen, then I will briefly talk about it, the civilization I am in is a spaceship civilization, and it is in the same orbit as the earth orbiting the sun...... At that time, in space, we no longer thought that there could be many new discoveries, and we saw the universe the same as you see, 5000 years, you can imagine, this time is nothing to the universe, but it is enough for a civilization to grow from young to old. Moreover, space exploration is severely limited by the speed of light, and the essence of the law of invariance of the speed of light is actually ...... You don't need to know this yet, but you just need to know that it can't be breached, and the only consolation is that people discovered the way to leap through time. β
"In fact, I don't know much about the specific process, I only know the result, that is, time is a multi-dimensional interpretation, you can imagine time as a river, all the facts we are in now, that is, the entire universe, are a drop of water in this river, the so-called time travel is nothing more than crossing from one drop of water to another - but the whole process is completely random and chaotic, because between two drops of water, there will always be only a momentary contact, and people who cross the past will never be able to go back, But we had a naΓ―ve idea of launching enough spacecraft to reach all the other points of contact in our universe in the hope that one day we could reconnect with our fellow citizens in the past in other places in order to figure out the whole river. The process is completely mandatory, and within a year, the government will send out one in a thousand people from the population to our civilization - you can think of this event as a huge scientific experiment, which everyone believes is the most meaningful thing to do in our time. β
Han Le was stunned on the other side of the screen, as were several other listeners - but they were different from Han Le, Han Le really believed Qiao Yiyu's words and was shocked by the fact that she was saying, while several others were overly surprised - in their opinion, this was simply a story more absurd than the Arabian Nights.
"And what do you mean, do you have other companions? Where's the ship that sent you here? β
Qiao Yiyu smiled: "Because my destination is the earth, and it is a solo trip, I don't need a spaceship, the spaceship is just to ensure the survival of the experimenter...... I only need to bring some money, so that I can survive here temporarily, Han Le knows a little about this, when I came, I brought a lot of RMB, which were all imitated according to the information of the museum before I came. β
"If what you say is true, can you go back to that point in the past? Like a second ago? If time were a drop of water, that should be easy to do, right? After all, this is the area that has just flowed. The chief was born in science, and he obviously felt that there was a big loophole in Qiao Yiyu's words.
"No, it's different from what you think," Qiao Yiyu said, "We observed that the most accessible time points have no obvious continuity, we only know that it is multi-dimensional, but we don't know how many dimensions it is, and our scientists at that time even guessed that time may not even be logical." β
"Not logical?!" At this moment, even the chief was stunned, "Does this phenomenon exist?" β
"Don't say it's you, it's me, I'm skeptical of these words, but these are indeed the mainstream voices of the scientific community at that time," Qiao Yiyu said, "The so-called time, the sense of logic, is just the experience summed up from the facts we observe, since time is multidimensional, then the law of time must also be - there must be a law different from what we know governing this phenomenon, and the law we know is logically perfect and closed, so this law must be outside the scope of cognition, This is the way the scientific community reasons. So we usually think that this law is unknowable......"
"But if you do what you say, the laws of each universe are different......
"No, you still don't understand," Qiao Yiyu shook his head, "It's that all these universes are the same as the ones we are in now, they are the same universe, the same universe appeared after the Big Bang, the water in the river all comes from the same source, there is no so-called other universe, this is all space, and the other ones coincide in the sense of time...... Theoretically speaking, in every universe we have come into contact with, we can calculate the age of the universe, and they must be different, just like on a ruler, there cannot be two scales of the same kind. What is different is not the laws of the universe, but the laws of time - the existence of a higher law of time that causes these phenomena to occur, and this law is not known to us. β
Although Qiao Yiyu tried hard to explain, it was still difficult for several people to understand, even Han Le was confused.
"As I said, it's hard to believe," Ms. Qiao said, "but what I said is true." β
"Then how did your people bring ......" Qin Jinwan didn't know what to say, "Bring people, or a spaceship, from your time?" How to position? How do you know there are other universes......
"I don't know these specific technologies," Qiao Yiyu said, "As for how to know that there are other universes, it's not complicated, as long as you keep increasing the energy level of the collider, after it is high enough, you can observe an effect similar to 'string resonance' - I only know this term, I know that it is related to string theory, but ......what is it specifically" Qiao Yiyu shook his head, "I haven't learned this knowledge yet, but the general idea is that energy is emitted to other universes in another way, which means opening a door." β
After Qiao Yiyu finished speaking, there was a long period of silence, Qiao Yiyu knew what they were going to do, and these words would definitely have to be interpreted by front-line scientists - but in her opinion, this is completely unnecessary, but the more experts she is, the more difficult it is to ignore the "unreasonable" points in what Qiao Yiyu said, and the most important thing is that Qiao Yiyu herself is a layman in this regard, physics is an outdated technical discipline in her time, except for a little understanding of common sense, Few people care about the theories that have existed in physics in history, this is like a "modern person", no one knows the specific operating principle of computer chips, the design basis, the manufacturing process, and at most a few logic circuits are good.
Half an hour later, the old man walked into Qiao Yiyu's room, and there were several strangers who came in with him, and after they came in, they nodded to Qiao Yiyu very politely, then sat down, looked at her and asked: "You mentioned before that physics has been unified, can you ......talk about it?"
Qiao Yiyu shook his head: "You don't have to ask me, I didn't study physics, and a lot of physics knowledge was learned from you over the years." β
"Does that mean that you don't have a practical way to prove that you are from the future," the other person spoke, "or is it that you are actually from the future, but you have always felt so yourself?" β
"If you are willing to understand it this way, I have no objection," Qiao Yiyu said, "I have not admitted this fact in any public place, it is you who said so." β
"But she did pop up in 2013, and we have a lot of evidence for that." The chief reiterated that he did not want the experts to see themselves as naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve fools.
"This only shows her longevity, but it doesn't mean that she is ......," one of the female experts questioned, but she was interrupted again by the chief halfway through her words, "She helped us develop the electric mosquito, according to her, this is a kind of future technology, from theory to implementation, she is driving it alone." β
"This can only explain her technical attainments, if you believe in the fact that another, oh no, countless universes exists based on these points, I personally still think that this is too arbitrary." The one who spoke was a university professor - in his opinion, even if Qiao Yiyu appeared in front of him in a spaceship now, it would not be enough to convince himself with this clumsy theory.
"So in the first place, how did the polar bear insiders believe that you are a futuristic person?" The chief thought to the crux of the matter, "Did you say that to them at the time?" β
Qiao Yiyu shook his head: "I didn't say anything to them." β
"Then why would they believe it?" The chief recalled a report from a few years ago that many people in the organization simply worshipped Qiao Yiyu as a god - unlike ordinary religions, it was not the most easily instigated, and the people with low education believed this, and it was precisely the most educated and determined atheist groups within the organization who believed in this fact the most.
Qiao Yiyu didn't answer directly, but asked them: "Do you have DNA sequencing equipment here?" β
"Several biological research institutes have ready-made ......" chiefs are no strangers to this, genetic engineering has always been a strategic project of the state, and their security department has been dealing with these terms for many years.
"In our time, from before birth, the government has implanted personal information in the DNA of each person's fertilized egg, which is also for the purpose of our exploration project - in this way, once we meet other people one day, we can easily know from the DNA when the other person's ancestors left the mother civilization, this information is located at the beginning of the first chromosome, is a meaningless interval that is not expressed, but it is actually a binary coding region, which is clearly marked with the last coding time of the DNA, There is also the civilization to which it belongs, which is not difficult to detect, you can see it by looking at it. β
β¦β¦
Even in this era, it still takes days to accurately sequence a piece of DNA, and the chief did not choose to continue asking, he planned to wait for the results of the report to come out - in fact, why do those experts have doubts about Qiao Yiyu, in the hearts of all the security department people who have contacted Qiao Yiyu, everyone has such a question - is she really a person from the future? Is she really as purposeless and harmless as she says she is? Is it possible that she has been lying?
The existence of surreality is inherently difficult to trust, and if there is no real tangible and irrefutable evidence, no one can really accept this fact, and it is difficult to achieve any meaningful effect when conducting an interrogation with such a hesitant attitude, but it will make Qiao Yiyu dissatisfied - until now, they don't know what the countdown on Qiao Yiyu's mobile phone is, but every time, when Qiao Yiyu is in front of them, he will put this countdown in front of him.
Qin Jinwan prefers to believe that this is some kind of real threat - if Qiao Yiyu is from the future, no one can imagine what kind of threat she will have, after all, there may be a gap of 5,000 years - imagine that 5,000 years ago, humans were still fighting with sticks and stones in the jungle!
In fact, it was not only Qin Jinwan who was curious about this countdown, Han Le was also full of curiosity, and even secretly said to Qiao Yiyu: "Can you tell me what this is secretly?" β
Qiao Yiyu looked at him funny: "Don't worry, they will definitely not be willing, if they don't fully understand and control us, these people can't sleep at night, I will naturally tell everyone when the time comes...... This thing can drag on for a day. β
In the evening, the two of them also saw Su Pei, he, like Han Le, suffered a little, but it was not a big problem, his spirit was not bad, and as soon as the people who were monitoring him left, Su Pei cursed through gritted teeth: "TM is not a good thing!" β
Qiao Yiyu gave him a look, and then whispered to the two: "People are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, you just bear with it, if you live here for a few days, they shouldn't do anything to us...... When this thing passes, everything will be fine. β
"Can we still get out?" Su Pei didn't know what Qiao Yiyu said, "By the way, why did they arrest you?" β
"Knowing that I am a person from the future, I am afraid that I will subvert the regime......" Qiao Yiyu didn't know, this was the only explanation she could think of - this was also what the other party told her, and she didn't know whether to believe it or not.
"It's really that I've watched too many movies, and the persecution delusion ......" Han Le laughed contemptuously, and when it came to the movie, he asked Su Pei again, "Did they let you 'watch the movie'?" β
"I watched," Su Pei nodded, "but it doesn't work for me, I like horror movies the most." β
"You're okay then."
"What a fart," Su Pei showed off the slight burns on his wrist caused by the continuous penetration of the current, as well as the strangulation marks on his neck, "I would have pretended to be if I knew it...... What kind of hero, the more you pretend to be fine, the more miserable it becomes. β
