Chapter 072: Time Scroll
Inside that galaxy, there is an endless vastness, as if it is a long river of time.
I closed my eyes and everything around me disappeared, but I heard a chatter outside the window. It's already dawn.
I looked out the window blankly and saw some students walking into the dormitory in groups, talking and laughing, their faces flushed as if they had been sunburned, and some students with lunch boxes in their hands. The lunch box is dipped in rice grains and vegetable leaves.
I looked at the wall clock that An Xiaowu had hung up last night, and the time on it was 12:10 p.m., and the time on my phone was 12:10. Zhuang Mo Craftsman.
I threw the scroll in my hand on the ground in fright, I don't know what the hell was going on, and in the blink of an eye, I went from four in the morning to twelve in the next day? It's just horrible.
At this time, An Xiaowu, Ji Zizheng and Song Gang had not woken up, so I hesitated, took the scroll on the ground into my hand, hid him, and didn't dare to study it again.
I went to the sink to wash up, and then went to the little flowerbed where we had caught ghosts last night, and the pine trees in the little flowerbed had fallen aside. I opened my yin and yang eyes and looked around, but I didn't see anything like a scroll around me, and I didn't notice anything else out of the ordinary.
This scroll is so weird that if the master is there, he might know what this thing is, and thinking of the master, I picked up the phone and called my mother. After the phone was connected, I asked my mother if she had bought a mobile phone for the master, and my mother said that she had bought it, but the master didn't use it, so she threw it on the table, and when she came, she forgot to remember the number, so she didn't send the number to me.
The mother said, "I sent you Dasha's mobile phone number, he is now in the mountains, you call him and ask." ”
After my mother sent Dasha's mobile phone, I called according to the number, and after the phone was connected, Dasha was overjoyed to hear my voice and asked me if Beijing was fun. He said that in a few months, my father might go to Beijing to attend an antique exhibition, and if he did, he would come to the school to find me.
I chatted with Dasha for a while, and then asked Dasha to give the phone to the master, and after a while, the master's voice came faintly from the other end of the phone, and the voice was a little blurred: "Hey, who are you?" ”
I said, "Your apprentice, Wang Yang." ”
The master said, "I can't hear you, you be louder!" ”
I raised my voice and said, "Master." You take the phone down and talk the other way around! ”
"Oh." There was a murmur on the other end of the phone, and then the master's voice came clearly: "Is it a futant?" ”
I said, "Master, it's me, are you okay on the mountain?" ”
The master said, "Okay, what else can I do, you've only been gone for two days, what are you calling for?" ”
I said, "Master, I'll introduce you to a new product, it's absolutely fun, it's the thing you hold in your hand, it's called a mobile phone, there are greedy snakes in it, and there are landlords." ”
There was a small voice on the other end of the phone, as if the microphone was covered: "It's a mobile phone salesman, not my apprentice." ”
Dasha's voice came faintly: "Master, this person is the boss, oh no, it's Wang Yang, your apprentice, I've confirmed it!" That's right! ”
"I listened to how the voice was a little different from usual, Xiao Guo gave him a mobile phone several times, but he didn't ask for it." The master muttered, put the phone back to his ear and said: "Then I'll see how to make the phone later, if you have anything else, hang up if you have nothing to do, how big you are and don't know independence, I have already started to run the rivers and lakes when I am as old as you, take classes at school, don't make trouble!" ”
I said, "I know, master, don't be in a hurry to hang up, I still have something to ask you." ”
The master said, "Say it." ”
I said, "Last night I picked up a strange thing, like a scroll, and there are scales at both ends of the scroll, one side of which seems to represent the hours, and the other side of the scale shows the year, month, and day. ”
The master's voice suddenly panicked: "You didn't open it, did you?!" ”
I heard that there was something unusual in the master's voice, so I said no, and I didn't mention the matter of unscrewing the bearings at both ends of the shaft, let alone looking at the scroll with yin and yang eyes.
The master said, "When I was twenty-seven years old and traveled to Kunlun Mountain, I once found a scroll in an ancient cave, and when I found it, it was enshrined on the top of a golden pagoda about one zhang high. The golden pagoda was surrounded by corpses, human and animal bones, piled up in circles and circles, I don't know how many living beings died, I felt that the scroll enshrined at the top of the golden pagoda was strange, but at that time I was young and frivolous, and the Taiyin secret art was practiced greatly, so I opened the scroll. ”
"The result?" I try to keep my voice as calm as possible.
The master said: "After opening it, the space around me suddenly distorted, even at that time no matter how strong my Dao qi was, I couldn't resist that strange power, and when I opened my eyes again, I found that I was already skinny, hungry and thirsty, I never thought that there was anything else in this world that could hurt me, I looked around, and I didn't see the scroll again." I barely managed to walk down the mountain, and when I got to the bottom of the mountain, I asked a mountain man to know that the time had passed a whole month, if it wasn't for the master's mastery of the valley, I am afraid that I would starve to death, that thing has to do with time! ”
When I heard the master say this, I suddenly became afraid, if I had touched the month scale on the scroll last night, wouldn't I have died directly?
The master said: "As long as you don't channel your qi into it, you should be fine, you must know that in this world, you can't be invincible in the world if you know how to do Taoism, the night I fought with your grandfather, he didn't use Taoism, but I still almost lost, his qi is not enough!" ”
I hesitated for a moment and said, "Master, don't worry, I won't touch that scroll." ”
The master said: "You don't have to lie to me, I know you are reluctant to throw it, I want to tell you that whether it is in today's technologically advanced world, or the things handed down from the ancient world, there are too many things that can threaten you, Taoist qi can actually be explained from a scientific point of view, everything exists, there must be traces, and there is a reason for its existence, and there are many things that science cannot explain, such as the things in your hand, the teacher has not told you a thing." ”
"What?" I was curious.
The master said: "People in the Xuanmen, everyone knows that the taboo of the Xuanmen is not to practice the art of resurrection, and you can't touch it, because reversing life and death is to mess up the rules of the yin and yang world, why did I stop your grandfather from going down the well to save you, it was for this rule, you should have died young, but he helped you change your life, and also replaced your life with the life of the Ninety-Five, the world is not allowed to have such a powerful person, I suspect that your grandfather is practicing the art of immortality, he wants to help you change the reincarnation, Erase your name from the book of life and death! That's going to go a big way! ”
I said: "The taboo of Xuanmen, I overheard Mrs. Meng's words back then, and she tried to bring the dead back to life in the end. ”
The master said: "It is impossible for her to bring the dead back to life, even if she is a teacher, there are many taboos in my Xuanmen, and many people think that the biggest taboo is to change life and death and mess with yin and yang, but in fact, the biggest taboo is not this." ”
I listened quietly to the master's words and did not say a word.
The master continued, "The biggest taboo is to mess up time!" Even if it's a mess for a day, the reason why the teacher didn't tell you about this is that I thought you would never come into contact with it in your life, but I didn't expect you to pick up this scroll. ”
I said, "Master, you mean that this thing is a time scroll?" ”
The master said: "I guessed it right, it is a time scroll, and I don't know why there is such a thing in the world, but this thing should not exist." I met it once when I was 27 years old, and I haven't encountered it again in the years since, and I haven't heard of similar rumors, but fortunately, when I was a teacher, I accidentally dialed the clockwise scale, so the scroll took me a month later, and things went naturally, but if I set the wrong time and reversed the time, everything would change. There is no such thing as fate in the world, if you go back to the past, it will never be the same again, maybe the damned people are not dead, maybe the unworthy people are dead, maybe they should not be invented, maybe some future big man has escaped a catastrophe, but it is not necessarily the case again. ”
"So the time scrolls cause the butterfly effect?" The master also reads some modern books when he is fine, and he knows what some nouns mean.
The master said: "The butterfly effect is secondary, I am afraid that it will also cause time and space confusion, so that you can see things that you shouldn't see, and then you may not be you." ”
After hanging up the phone, I recalled my master's words and remembered that night more than ten years ago.
That night, my grandfather jumped into the old well to save me, and when I swam with him to the new well of Dasha's house, I saw myself from under the new well.
I touched the scroll behind me, didn't dare to touch it more, if this thing falls into the hands of some people, I think his first thought is to remember today's lottery, and then go back to yesterday, but the master said, back to yesterday everything will change, the lottery re-shake, it is not necessarily the original number, and I am afraid that the qi in my body is not enough to control this scroll, and I can't play my little life.
At this time, my stomach suddenly rumbled, and I was a little hungry, so I didn't think much about it, and walked straight to the cafeteria not far away.
When I got to the door of the cafeteria, I saw a group of people arguing around it, like something had happened.
