Teacher Xuanqing's words seemed to answer Lei Luo's doubts, but they didn't seem to say anything. It seemed like he didn't say anything, but it seemed to prove that he knew something. Lei Luo looked at the teacher, dazed and a little stupid.

"So teacher, how can I understand more and get closer?" asked Lei Luo.

"All the stories are in you, and when the opportunity comes, you will naturally understand. Teacher Xuanqing's tone was still flat, "All history will unfold in front of your eyes, and when the time comes, you will naturally be in it." ”

Teacher Xuanqing's words were like a thunderclap, bursting in Lei Luo's mind. This Xuanqing teacher, this one knows astronomy and geography, astrological arithmetic, and the book of formation soldiers...... The private school teacher, who knows everything well, obviously knows something. So, how should you ask? What do you encounter?

"There is a lot of fog in front of me, and I can't see the road ahead clearly, and I hope that the teacher will guide me through the maze. Lei Luo turned around, bowed deeply to the teacher, and said sincerely, "The teacher must know a lot of things, and he hopes to give students a way to guide them." ”

Xuan Qing looked at Lei Luo, with thoughtful eyes in his eyes, looked at the snow-capped mountains in front of him, and asked softly, "Do you know the world we live in?"

For Xuanqing's question, Lei Luo has thought about it countless times and explored it countless times, but there has been no result. For the world he lives in, Lei Luo is completely at a loss, as if the world he is in is outside history, outside time, and outside the universe. The world I live in does not belong to any of the worlds I know at all.

Xuanqing's question, Lei Luo couldn't answer it at all, so he chose not to answer, he knew that since the teacher had asked this question, he would definitely give him an answer.

The mountain wind was bitter, mixed with the slightest snow foam, and the valley whirred. The wheat waves are surging, like a green stalk, undulating, like a dance. Lei Luo was worried about the teacher's body, and was about to take off his coat and put it on Xuanqing, but Xuanqing teacher laughed, blocked his left hand, and said: "This cold can't help your teacher-do you remember all the timeline history I taught you?"

Lei Luo saw that Teacher Xuanqing refused, and he was no longer reluctant, the teacher was mysterious and unpredictable, so he naturally couldn't guess with common sense.

"The history taught by the teacher is nothing more than the opening of the world in Pangu to the end of mechanical civilization, during which millions of years have passed, the stars have shifted, the vicissitudes of life, and the changes in human society, so that students are not emotional. Lei Luo said in a daze, "It's just that I can't connect the world I live in with the history told by the teacher, it seems that the world I live in is actually outside the timeline of history......"

Xuan Qing nodded and encouraged, "Go on." ”

Xuan Qing's nodding seemed to give Lei Luo an answer, Lei Luo sorted out his thoughts, confirmed his inner thoughts over and over again, and then said calmly: " Teacher, ancient mythology, no text and images to examine, naturally not real history; 2070 B.C. entered the Xia Dynasty period, it should be the beginning of the timeline with words to examine, there is an exact year, the Xia, Shang and Zhou civilizations showed a phased leap in development, to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty countries disputes, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period of the talented people, until the Ying Zheng swept Liuhe, the world was unified, and history was advancing in an orderly manner in the smoke of gunpowder. In the history of the future, it seems that there is an invisible big hand in the control, division and merger, dynastic change, the country takes turns, and the progress of society is slow in addition to the accumulation and development of culture. Until the emergence of modern industrial civilization, human society has entered the mechanical age, the productivity has increased exponentially, and the highly developed science and technology have made human beings grow rapidly, but the rapid growth of the productive forces has not been steadily developed......

When Lei Luo said this paragraph, Xuan Qing's expression did not change in the slightest, because all this that Lei Luo said was nothing more than what he taught Lei Luo. Xuan Qing knew that Lei Luo was about to tell the crux of the problem, so he didn't bother Lei Luo, just listened quietly.

Lei Luo sorted out his thoughts again, and then continued: "The question is, in the history you teach, human civilization has completely disappeared, so what part of the historical timeline is the present we live in? Naturally, we can't be any of the middle periods, and if so, how can we know what will happen in the future? Then we and I should be after the disappearance of human civilization, but the question is, human civilization has disappeared, where did we come from?"

"Lei Luo, as a teacher, I know that you already have an idea in your heart. Xuan Qing looked sideways at the sky and said quietly, "You can boldly say what you think." ”

Looking at the undulating wheat waves in front of me, Lei Luo's thoughts are like a tide, and the thoughts surging in my heart are like turning over the river and the sea, impacting, tearing, sometimes it seems to see the shore through the huge waves, but I am quickly drowned in another huge wave.

"Teacher, Lei Luo's knowledge is still shallow, I really can't say why, I still hope that the teacher will advise. After pondering for a while, Thunderfall still couldn't say what he thought.

"Child, whether you know the answer or not, have you ever been worried about the answer?" Teacher Xuanqing looked into Lei Luo's eyes and asked, "Would you rather not understand anything?"

Teacher Xuan Qing did not answer Lei Luo's question, but instead raised a new question, which was speaking to Lei Luo's heart. Thunderfall replied without thinking, "I've been struggling with this answer all the time. Many times, I would rather be like those people in the village who have not studied, who don't know, but don't bother. ”

After hearing what Lei Luo said, Teacher Xuanqing couldn't help laughing and said, "It's really still a child." Naïve children. It's a pity that you already know, and you can't help but think, think, and talk about finding answers, right? ”

Lei Luo was a little ashamed, looking at his teacher, just like looking at an unattainable mountain and looking at an unfathomable pool of clear water.

"Teacher, Lei Luo wants to know the answer, Lei Luo doesn't want to live in a mess like this. Thinking of the incredible encounters in recent days, Lei Luo has already made a decision, "and asked the teacher to point out the students' doubts." ”

"To answer your doubts, you must first answer my question about time. Xuan Qing said, "Time is an invisible and intangible abstract concept, you can't concretize time and let it exist objectively in front of our eyes." ”

Xuan Qing saw Lei Luo staring at him blankly, and quickly explained: "――In other words, can you make an analogy, time is like something in our lives?"

On this issue, it seems that the view of Confucius is more accurate - the deceased is like a husband, reluctant to give up day and night. Time should be like surging water," Lei Luo replied.

"Time is like flowing water, and nature is appropriate. Teacher Xuanqing said, "If the timeline of our history is like a rushing river, then aren't we people just swimming fish flowing down the river in this current?"

Lei Luo nodded silently.

Xuan Qing smiled slightly, stroked his long hair again, and then said solemnly: "In the cold winter of Sanjiu, the rivers turn into ice and no longer flow. Will the fish follow the water, into the abyss, into the sea, but are dazed and unconscious, will some fish jump out of the water, see the danger of the road ahead, and change the direction of their progress, or stop in place, or even go upstream?"

"What does the teacher mean......" Lei Luo was shocked and asked in a trembling voice, "What does the teacher mean that time can be changed?"

Xuan Qing was not shocked, and said lightly: "The river becomes ice, but it stays in place, and the fish changing lanes is only a personal behavior, even if it goes upstream, it will never be able to change the general trend of the river." I just want to tell you: not all fish go with the water, and not all the water flows into the sea......"

Teacher Xuanqing said that the amount of information was too large, and Lei Luo couldn't digest it for a while, and he couldn't understand it, so he only felt that his head was buzzing, but he couldn't figure out a clear clue, and he fell into contemplation for a while, and he was stunned.

Xuan Qing didn't bother Lei Luo, the teacher and student have always been like this, when they encounter doubts, Xuan Qing only makes a point, but never breaks it, the answer, and Lei Luo has to find it himself.

"Since time is like a long river that never stops, let's face the real river. No one could be more accurate and direct than its answers. Xuan Qing smiled, left this sentence, turned around and drifted away, he went so fast, he didn't see how his feet moved, but in the blink of an eye, he was already a hundred steps away......

Lei Luo didn't seem to notice Xuanqing's anomaly, still immersed in an unknown impulse. This impulse, like a long whip, struck hard in Lei Luo's heart. Thunderfall began to run, running over wheat fields, running over snowy slopes, and rushing straight to the snowy peaks.

The mountain wind is howling, the snow is dancing, and the thunder has never run so fast, as if there is really an answer ahead.

Standing on the snow peak, there is a vast expanse in front of you. It will be the top, and the world will be small. In the distance, a large river meanders, like a dragon, shuttling between the peaks.

The river is surging, with a faint mist, and the clouds are steaming, which is not spectacular. In this cold winter month, the water flow is slow and sluggish, and it seems that it may condense into ice at any time. If time is really like this, will there be times when it will stand still?

The world is vast, and compared with human beings, human beings are really insignificant. In the face of heaven and earth, only by carefully exploring inner peace and harmony can we see the real world.

So, Lei Luo closed his eyes.

When you close your eyes, you can see it more realistically.

I saw the grass roots sleeping in the snow, the young shoots of life beating in the dead branches, the earthworms struggling to move forward in the frozen soil, and the swimming fish in the cold water......

Everything in the world is so real and thorough.

When winter comes, the mountains and rivers freeze at the beginning, and the animals that can't stand the cold choose to sleep with the mountains and rivers. The surging river turned into ice, stopped flowing, and the world seemed to stop in an instant. When spring returns to the earth, the ice and snow melt, the world regains its vitality, and the river begins to flow forward again......

The cold can freeze the river, is there really a power that can freeze time?

If the fish in the river freezes with the river in an instant, does it know that it has stopped with the river? If time is frozen, do people who are in this time know that they have stopped with time?

"Thunderfall, are you living for a period of time?" Thunderfall asked himself repeatedly.

Suddenly, a picture entered Lei Luo's heart: "The big river in the distance, flowing slowly, at a bend, branched out, the tributary did not flow far, from the body of the river, forming a deep pool of nearly 100 squares, and the flowing river water circled around in this deep pool......"

This ordinary scene was like a lightning bolt that blew up Lei Luo's mind.

Could it be that time can also have tributaries? Could it be that the world in which we live is actually on a tributary of the time axis?

If you are a fish swimming in this tributary, can you see the source of the river if you jump out of the water? If you jump higher, can you see the final destination of the current?

Who created this tributary and why did he create it?

The cold village outside the world, the ancient kite tree, the cliff proverb, the thunder feather arrow...... Could it be that Lei Luo really lives on a tributary of the historical timeline? lives in a deep pool that does not advance or retreat?

When I walked down the snowy mountain, it was already dusk.

Lei Luo's face was very calm, and his steps were very steady, stepping on the footless snow step by step, leaving a series of clear footprints. Lei Luo looked into the distance, his gaze was very firm, but his heart was really as firm as his gaze.

When I returned to the private school, most of my classmates had already dispersed. In this last class, Lei Luo did not listen to the lecture in the private school, but listened to the most profound revelation in the snow-capped mountains and wheat waves.

Lei Luo wanted to carry his schoolbag, so he went to say goodbye to the teacher and walked into the lobby, only to find that Yu Yu was sitting alone and distracted.

As soon as he saw the thunder fall in, Cho Yu jumped over as if he had seen a savior: "You can be regarded as back, do you know how hard I waited for you?"

Lei Luo thought about more important things in his heart, and he didn't answer, just packed his schoolbag.

"I said good brother, this time I can rely on you. Chopping Yu didn't care whether Lei Luo agreed or not, and pulled Lei Luo and walked out, "If you don't help me, I'll die for you." ”

In the confusion, Cho Yu had already pulled Lei Luo to the open space behind the private school, and the girl in the green gauze was holding a dustpan to feed a group of chickens. Afraid that the girl would see her, she pulled the thunder and squatted down behind the fence in the clearing.

"Good brother, please. Chopping Yu didn't care whether Lei Luo agreed or not, and said to himself, "Tomorrow is my birthday, I want to invite this little demon girl to my house...... I want you to help me get her ......."

In fact, this girl's name, Lei Luo and Cho Yu don't know. What's more, they don't know, I'm afraid all the classmates don't know, everyone only knows that she is the granddaughter of Teacher Xuanqing, but no one dares to ask Teacher Xuanqing, whoever wants to ask, the teacher must be furious. Naturally, no one dared to talk to this girl, and whoever wanted to go, Teacher Xuanqing would definitely be punished. This woman goes in and out of the private school every day, but it is like a mystery, and thanks to this girl is extremely pretty, just like the orchid that is not stained in the deep mountains, a good classmate joked, this woman is not a demon fox in the mountains? But the name of the demon fox is really ugly, so everyone added a "small" word in front of the word "demon", and the name of the little demon was shouted.

Before Lei Luo came to his senses, he was pushed out by the jade slasher.

The little demon heard a voice, turned his head and glanced at Lei Luo, and then looked at the fence behind Lei Luo, and said meaningfully: "Are you looking for me?"
