018: Interpreting the magic pocket watch
Roshi was shocked!
After being on the island for so long, his life has formed a pattern, meditating twice a day, one ending at noon, and the other ending when the sun is completely set, which Roshi can't remember wrong, even if there was only one meditation before, it would have been at least five or six hours.
But at this time, the sun was still hanging high outside... Not even a bright sun, to be exact, Roshi came out and took a closer look, it was still the early morning sun.
"What's going on?"
Roshi's first thought was the last strange experience in the jungle, but when he looked around carefully, he found that nothing had changed except for time.
"Is it because you're thinking too much?"
Because of the silence in the sea of spiritual consciousness for a long time, and the recent increase in the efficiency of absorbing elements, the concept of time has become blurred?
"Tick-tock... Tick-tock..."As Rosie pondered, a crisp ticking sound suddenly reached his ears.
He was slightly stunned at first, then his eyes lit up suddenly, and he hurriedly returned to the grass hut and turned out the pocket watch that had been thrown aside.
And when he saw the time on the pocket watch at a glance through the open cover, he immediately determined that this anomaly must be inseparable from this pocket watch.
This is because exactly an hour has passed on the pocket watch, compared to the time before I entered the meditative state in the morning, and the sky at this time, it is almost an hour in the past.
Don't...
"This pocket watch has the ability to slow down time?"
As soon as this thought came to him, Roshi hurriedly walked out of the grass shed with his pocket watch, sat in the sun and carefully observed the sky outside.
Just watched carefully for a while, but Roshi didn't feel that time was slowing down, the waves were still rushing up the beach at their speed and then retreating, and the windswept woods behind the jungle were still swinging normally.
After looking motionless for a while, a strong and intense feeling of tiredness after the mental overdraft came to him, and Roshi, who was too sleepy, widened his eyes several times, and his eyelids still kept closing, and he fell asleep on the beach.
By the time he woke up, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, the sun had gradually set, and there was a protesting rumbling in his stomach early.
It's just that at this time, where can Luo Xi care about eating, his head is full of this extremely bizarre situation that happened to him today.
"Was everything before an illusion?"
No way!
Luo Xi decisively rejected this idea, although at that time in the spiritual consciousness sea, he was busy absorbing the elements and did not care too much about time.
But now that he had thought about it, it had indeed taken much longer than usual, it couldn't have been an hour anyway, but after all this time, there was no sign of hunger in his stomach...
Could it be that ...
Suddenly, a bold idea popped into Roshi's heart.
After this thought grew, even his heartbeat began to accelerate, a pair of eyes glowed incredibly, and his throat couldn't help but dry slightly.
He glanced down at the pocket watch in his hand, on which another hour had passed, and then, with a gentle breath, closed his eyes and entered a meditative state.
This time, Roshi slowed down the frequency of absorbing the elements, and instead paid attention to the flow of time, and began to count the time over and over again in his mind.
When the fifth element was absorbed, he couldn't wait to open his eyes, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but lose his mind slightly.
The sun is still setting in the west, and the sunset will reflect the whole sea red.
And so it was!
"This pocket watch can actually change the speed of time passing in the sea of spiritual consciousness!!"
Yes!
When he thought that the reaction of all aspects of the body did not match the mental reaction, Roch had this guess, and the meditation just now was fully confirmed.
When he was meditating just now, he had been calculating the time, not to mention three or four hours had passed, but the sunset outside hadn't even set, it was just a little bit westward!
For a moment, Roshi was completely stunned.
Sitting on the beach as if he had turned into a sculpture, letting the sea breeze blow, he had always paid attention to rheumatism, and he paved the beach in the cold water, and did not care at all if it was past his ankles.
After a while...
"Huh... Ha ha... Woo... Woo!"
Roshi laughed with a dull gaze, laughing and laughing, but tears poured out like a burst of the embankment, flowing freely along his wrinkled old face.
Then.
He took a deep breath, his body trembling with excitement, he stood up tremblingly, then turned to face the jungle, faced the mountains, and kowtowed a few times.
Although Roshi has never mentioned it, in fact, he has no confidence at all about whether he can be promoted to wizard and return to his youth.
You must know that the original owner of this body spent more than seventy years until he died, and he was unable to step into the path of a wizard, and what he had to face was not only to catch up with the pace of time, but also to surpass the speed of life, which was more difficult than ascending to the sky with his talent.
It's just that he has no choice, he has neither the mentality nor the ability to accept living as an old man, and at the same time he is unwilling to die, so he has not thought about this acute question all along.
Now with this pocket watch, although the process of hard work will not change, it is still necessary to absorb the elements one by one, but at least the road ahead is no longer hopeless!
Time.
Like an old madman, he cried and laughed on the beach for a long time, and even flipped a few heels, before Roshi recovered from this joy.
He then held the pocket watch in his hand with bright eyes, and stroked it gently over and over again, just like treating a stunning girl.
After observing for a while, Roshi then noticed the two buttons on the left side of the pocket watch, and it was only the top one that he pressed down.
What's next?
With this curiosity, Roshi pressed the button below, and when the button below was pressed, the button on top popped up.
Then Roshi couldn't wait to enter a meditative state and continued to observe seriously.
And a few minutes later, he knew what the other button was for.
"Gollum, Gollum!"
Luo Xi opened his eyes with a pale face, faced with his growling stomach, and hurriedly took off his grass skirt, just in such a short moment, his whole face had been suffocated into the color of pig liver.
Then.
The roar of thunder like a storm exploded on the beach.
