The distance is fixed, and so is the time it takes.

You can't speed up this time because you're anxious.

At this moment, Wei Yan only felt anxious.

In order to relieve some of the tension in his heart, Wei Yan subconsciously wanted to know more about the truth about the ring.

The more you know, the less fear you have.

"I've heard that the speed of time inside the ring is completely different from the outside."

When Wei Wutong heard this, he didn't say no, but asked rhetorically.

"Ever heard the story of 'The First Second of Eternity'?"

Wei Yan nodded and spoke softly.

"Legend has it that at the end of the world is a barren mist. In the mist stood an ancient towering tree, the tree of life.

And when the old tree stretched its waist, the little bird on the branch that had been sleeping for a hundred years woke up, it was the bird of time.

Waking up this time, the Time Bird is about to embark on a long and arduous journey, encountering strong winds, lightning, torrential rain, and thunder in its flight.

When it had overcome all these difficulties, a ray of dawn pierced through the blackened clouds, and the Bird of Time followed the light through the clouds to Diamond Mountain, which it had been searching for day and night.

It's here to sharpen its beak.

It takes an hour to go around this diamond hill and an hour to climb it.

When this bird of time comes here every hundred years, it eventually smooths out the entire Diamond Mountain.

The first second of eternity is just gone. ”

Wei Wutong's eyes were slightly distracted.

"Yes, that's eternity. When the first second has passed in the outside world, I don't know how many centuries have passed inside. ”

Glancing at Wei Yan, he found that his rational daughter might not be too willing to accept this emotional story, so Wei Wutong explained softly again.

"Time is the definition, it is the description. It's our perception of everything that's happening around us.

We stipulate that a short breath is one second, and that is one second. However, this feeling doesn't work anywhere.

It is not so much that the speed of time inside the ring is different from that of the outside world, but that the ontology of sensation is completely different.

The speed of human thought is far greater than the speed of our physical body that senses everything around us in reality.

So, the faster the person thinks, the longer he feels spent in it compared to the speed at which time flows now.

What we normally feel in the past day generally ranges from decades to hundreds of years. ”

Wei Yan suddenly became nervous, and she probably calculated it in her heart.

"So...... If we had counted since we set off, he might have been three or four years by now? ”

"I'm afraid, yes."

……

When he woke up again, Jiang Bai's eyes were gloomy.

289 times.

He remembers this number well.

This is his greatest hope in perseverance.

At this moment, however, hope is dashed.

In fact, it didn't just start at this point.

Earlier, he had already realized something.

If time in the outside really flows at the same rate as time inside, then it shouldn't wait until exactly 288 times.

Before meeting the robot, he had been interrogated by the detention center and left alone for a while.

By the time the 288th decision arrived, it had already taken more than 48 hours.

It's time for them to let themselves out.

If 48 hours had really passed outside......

For such a long time, it stands to reason that Wei Yan's little rich woman should have received the news.

Of course, Jiang Bai didn't think she was very special to him, but he believed in Wei Yan's own character.

If she knew what was happening, even if it was a stranger, she would take action and make an effort.

and Lin Qiusheng, this uncle also has the same temperament.

They should all be trying to some extent at the moment.

If 48 hours had indeed passed, the pressure on the people in the detention centre would be unimaginable.

If...... There really are 48 hours.

But it didn't.

Apparently not.

Jiang Bai recognized this fact.

One day outside, a hundred years of the ring, right?

Jiang Bai suddenly remembered this sentence that was widely circulated on the Skynet, and realized the only truth-

He's in the ring!

If it was just speculation, now is the first time that it is truly and completely certain.

Gu may just be a flick of his fingers to the people outside, but for the people inside, it is an unimaginably long time.

Case......

Then you can give up the illusion.

You have to find a way to save yourself!

288 times, except for the first letter Z unchanged, the number is repeated twice, the others are different numbers, the largest number, came to 1023.

Meantime...... Jiang Bai ran a lap.

He ran through a lap as fast as he could, and before being caught up by the "Grim Reaper", he clearly remembered how many rooms he had counted—

1024

There should be some kind of pattern in it.

Maybe this kind of law has nothing to do with him getting out of trouble, but he has to find something to do.

What people fear most is that there is no hope.

Thereupon......

Even hope itself has been put to the test.

In the black iron room, there was only a string of vague and illegible characters on the door.

The voice in his heart did not ripple at all, but it was like a devil's whisper in Jiang Bai's ears.

"Is this a real hope, or is it your self-righteous hope? Why does it have to be a purpose? Why is it necessary to have a pattern? Why...... Must give you a chance to be liberated? ”

Jiang Bai looked up, trying to see the unreadable characters.

There was a fire burning in his eyes.

In the previous 288 times, he had been forced to "remember" more memories.

It's not just that broken pair of glasses.

and watched his classmates being bullied by two gangsters outside the school, but swept them at a glance......

and after a heated argument with his parents, he slammed the door and left......

And also...... Many, much more.

Those are all regrets.

It was something that Jiang Bai couldn't forget, but he didn't want to remember.

There were many, many more such things in his long life in the past.

There is no way to undo the mistakes made in the past.

Therefore, when the past is brought up again, all I feel is unspeakable guilt and embarrassment.

The more you want to escape, the more you need to face it at the moment.

And I have faced it many times, in order to make myself no longer sad and make myself feel at ease...... will choose to be obedient and choose to be a person without a heart.

If you don't care, you won't be hurt.

This should have been the right thing to do.

It is another possibility of self-liberation.

When I don't have any integrity, I can ignore all accusations.

People are shameless, and the world is invincible.

But Jiang Bai wants face.

Why not?

"I just have to persevere, I just have to face it!"

Jiang Bai roared angrily, as if he was answering the voice in his heart, and he was also confident in his actions.

"If you want me to give up, this blow is not enough! I'm sorry for those who passed and I will always remember it. What I owe to them is what I owe to them! I will never forget it in my life! ”

The voice in my heart is still calm, and there is a bit of goodness like water.

"The louder people are, the more weak they tend to become. You're not sure when you're going to give up, like you don't know if there's any point in you exploring so much. You're just giving yourself a vague hope. The candle flame in the wind is extinguished as soon as it is blown. ”

"Yes...... That's right, I'm not sure. But one thing is certain, at this moment, I will not give up. Right now, right now! ”

"Very good...... You are honest. No one dares to make an oath to eternity. In that case......"

The voice didn't finish before it quietly dissipated.

Jiang Bai also saw the string of characters in front of him clearly-

z1024

Jiang Bai glanced around, and there was no difference between the room and the previous one.

Noted down the number and stepped out.

This time, Jiang Bai, who was in the corridor, didn't see the turntable room in front of him turning.

It seems that from this time on, things really turned around......

Jiang Bai realized something, and hurriedly ran to the side of the corridor and stretched out his head to look out.

Below...... The turntable room on the first floor was silent.

Before that, when he looked out from the side of the hallway, there was a dark fog underneath!

And said that you are not a savior
