Without waiting for me to understand, Nujiao continued: "Because it lives in time, we can't see it under normal circumstances. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info For it, the form has no concept of space. And the dragon god has a terrible instinct, the creatures that live in space, their food is also in space, and the dragon god who lives in time, its food comes from time. ”

"What? It actually feeds on time? ”

Nujiao said: "To be precise, the food of the dragon god is a certain period of time that has been divided. ”

I didn't do well in science majors, and I suddenly felt dizzy, and said with a confused face: "A certain period of time? What's that saying? ”

"The general perception of time is time, and it seems inseparable in breadth. For example, at the present point in time, the point we are in is unified with the Huai River, which is thousands of miles away, and there is no distinction between them. Time is like a whole behemoth, enveloping the heavens and the earth, slowly wriggling. ”

I gradually understood what she meant.

The indivisibility she just mentioned is not the vertical division of time such as "yesterday, today, and tomorrow", but the plane division of time as something like space.

"The dragon god can split time and swallow it one bite at a time. For example, this cave behind us counts as a period of time from the time you appeared until now. If you think of this time as a piece of cake, the dragon god can swallow it in one bite. ”

"Swallow this cave and everything in it, including us?"

Nu Jiao denied it: "It has been said that the dragon god feeds on time, so you don't understand it from the spatial level, but from the flow of time." ”

My mind swelled and I said, "No matter what time and space, once it eats it, what will happen to everything in the original cave?" None of them exist? ”

Nujiao continued to make analogies: "If you take a bite of the cake, it will be missing a corner." Although that horn does not disappear, but goes to your stomach and is finally excreted through metabolism, the pie is missing a corner after all. This is a cake, an object in space, but time cannot be missing. The time that is swallowed by the dragon god will be automatically made up. ”

I was stunned and said, "Isn't that the same as not eating?" Since it has been made up, it means that there is no shortage of time. ”

Seeing that I hadn't figured it out yet, Nujiao couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I just praised you for being smart, but now I'm confused again." Think about it, is there a difference between flatbread and feces? ”

I seemed to realize, "You mean, the dragon god swallows a piece of time, and then discharges the same time. But during the time when it was made up, will the things in the space be different from the previous ones? ”

Nujiao nodded her head and said, "You finally figured it out." Yes, if we take the underground cave just now as a spatial unit, the dragon god swallowed the past cave time period, and when we expel it again, we will still be there. It's just that you're not the same person you used to be, and I'm not the same person I was just now. And the Wen Ming who was discharged may not go to the bottom of the mountain to find a wizard to come and help. ”

I thought of a possibility and said in a trembling voice: "Then can you be sure that the current you are still the previous you, and the current me is still the previous me?" ”

"I don't know." Nujiao glanced at me and took a deep breath, "Regarding the division of time, it is not as simple as you think, it is not the kind of mechanical operation like cutting cakes. I didn't quite figure it out either. However, such a situation is possible. With this cave as the center, people within a radius of a hundred miles will leave in a hundred years and will live in other places a hundred miles away. Or, thirty years ago, when Wen Ming was not yet born, his parents were not active within this hundred miles at that time, but they still couldn't escape the fate of being devoured by the dragon god. How broad it is depends on its appetite. If Wenming's parents are devoured, he who is reborn will not be him. ”

I heard it coldly, if the dragon god had opened his mouth when he was in the cave just now, then I am still the same as before?

Forget it, don't want to be that complicated.

I barely calmed down my frightened thoughts and asked, "So you want to use this ability of the Dragon God to deal with Wu Zhiqi, so that it can devour Wu Zhiqi's time period and return it to the state that didn't exist before it was born?" ”

Nujiao nodded.

"However, have you ever wondered if the dragon god's devouring range and depth are so wide and long, will it harm the innocent? For example, you just brought the dragon god to the Huaishui and met Wu Zhiqi, and in a fit of rage, he simply swallowed you together. ”

Nu Jiao said: "The idea of using the dragon god to deal with Wu Zhiqi was me, how could I not have predicted this kind of consequence in advance?" I've figured out how to deal with it, but I can't tell you about it for the time being, and you don't have to ask about it. ”

I asked again, "Then you can always tell me the origin of this dragon god, right?" Don't tell me it's really a dragon, or a god coming down from heaven. ”

After pondering for a moment, Nujiao replied, "I really don't know about the origin of the dragon god. It existed long before our Tu Shan clan came to this era. Perhaps, it is the relic of some kind of extraterrestrial visitor; Perhaps, like us, from some time in the future; Perhaps, it itself was conceived from other planes of the earth. As you know, there are at least sixty-four dimensions in this universe. ”

I was stunned and said, "Isn't there only eleven dimensions in the universe?" ”

Nu Jiao said: "That was a theory from a long time ago, and the later theory of time and space was more complicated. Hey, it turns out that you're from that period. ”

I said, "Can you tell me how you got here?" ”

I smiled wryly, "Isn't it unfair that you don't tell me anything, but ask me where I came from?" ”

Nujiao said: "It's up to you whether you say it or not." I just want to see if there's a way to help you get back to your own time. ”

At the moment, I am also exhausted in donkey skills, and as soon as I heard that she had a way, I immediately told me what I had encountered in the four-dimensional space-time enchantment.

After listening to this, Nujiao smiled and said: "It turns out that you are from the Middle Ages, but you are just one step ahead of them." Looks like I'll have to be respectful to you, maybe you're still one of my ancestors. ”

I didn't feel angry and said, "You better help me figure it out." ”

Nu Jiao said: "If what I expected, the mage who used the four-dimensional space-time enchantment to trap you is not really capable of manipulating time, but the four-dimensional space-time enchantment woven by using the residual energy of the dragon god in the underground cave. She is not the original, but the processor. ”

"So what?"

Nujiao didn't continue, but looked at me with a smile, "If you want to know, do me a favor." ”
