In the snow outside the entrance to the cave.

I clung to the old dog's ball, unable to speak for a long time.

Zhang Rong and the others were also frightened, and they couldn't believe that this old man who was covered in filth and even dying could be the child who was with us to eat.

"How...... How so? ”

"How did he end up like this?"

"Didn't he go down the mountain?"

Zhang Rong slowed down for a long time, cleared up the time difference between the two time and space, and then hurriedly lay on the ground and asked the old man in my arms: "Dog, what have you experienced?" Didn't we tell you and your sister back then, didn't your sister take you down the mountain? ”

I really couldn't equate this old man with a dog, but I saw him raise his hand slightly, grab Zhang Rong's hand, and open his mouth to make a whimpering sound, just like a dumb man learning to speak.

He didn't seem to be able to speak, and every pronunciation was extremely slurred.

"His language function...... It seems to have degenerated. ”

Zhuge Ming frowned and sighed: "He can't speak......"

I gently nudged the old man in my arms twice, and found that his body was weak and he did not respond at all.

"He seems to be dying......"

Zhang Rong's eyes were red, and he hurriedly turned around and said to one of the senior brothers: "Shi Xiu, take a look, what is his situation?" ”

This senior brother named Shi Xiu knows a little about medical skills, and it is said that a few years ago, he studied Chinese medicine for two years at the head of Qingyun Guanyuan, and he knew some simple things.

He hurriedly stretched out his hand and put it on the old man's wrist.

After a while, he shook his head and sighed: "It's the death vein, it's already over......"

At this moment, we all looked at the old man, and I looked down at him, and gradually accepted that he was the child who was with us to eat.

We had a lot of questions we wanted to ask him, but he couldn't speak, and he ...... He's about to leave.

For us, the last time we saw each other, it was the night before.

For him, the last time we saw each other was decades ago in the evening.

We really changed his fate and allowed him to survive that plane without dying in the ground.

But we didn't save him at all.

He lived alone in this deep mountain and old forest all his life, and met us again on his deathbed.

This fate is really deep, this fate is ...... It's so bitter.

He kept looking at us, as if he didn't quite understand why we weren't old after a few decades.

For him, everything was as it first appeared.

Zhang Rong took the compressed biscuit, tore open the bag, and put it in his mouth like feeding a dog when he was a child. Xiu Shu

"I'm hungry."

"Take a bite ......"

He ate it and took it in his mouth like he had as a child.

But he was so weak that he didn't have the strength to chew anymore.

As if he had eaten the sweetest thing of the year again, he smiled at us, then closed his eyes, and kept the cookie in his mouth.

Shi Xiu stretched out his hand tremblingly and felt his pulse again.

"Little brother, go all the way......"

He died, and he didn't say a word.

He seems to have lived for a long time, but he doesn't seem to have lived long at all.

We dug a pit nearby and buried the dog's eggs.

Standing in front of his grave, we were all sad and sentimental.

It only took us a few days to witness his life, but he spent his life just to see us for the last time.

"So...... The dog when he was a child, the 'animal' he saw on the first night, was actually the old himself? ”

Zhuge Ming was puzzled: "But they are the same person, even if they are the same person in different time and space, how can they meet in the same time and space?" ”

We all understand what Zhuge Ming meant.

If two people in different planes can meet, it proves that parallel space-time exists, and theoretically speaking, a third parallel space-time has been created at this time.

But theories are always just theories, whether it is the research made by the scientific community on this, or the philosophical discussion of parallel time and space in film and television dramas, they all stay only in theory.

After all, human beings who are mortal in the flesh can only see limited things, and their cognition is limited after all.

We can't find the answer to this question.

But the truth is that the first night that came knocking on our door was the old dog, and the young dogan was also nearby at that time, and he saw his future self, but he didn't know that it was him.

Maybe without us, in the original time and space of Goudan and Shen Zhiyi, these sisters and brothers would have died in the same way as those villagers, but our appearance changed their original fate trajectory and saved the sister and brother from the death of the ground.

Even so, according to what we have seen so far, the dog did not go down the mountain.

If he didn't go down the mountain, what about Shen Zhiyi?

It is impossible for Shen Zhiyi to leave the dog egg and go down the mountain alone, and if the dog egg really did not go down the mountain, then Shen Zhiyi has only one ending, that is, he is dead.

Maybe the sister and brother encountered some accident on the way down the mountain, maybe they got lost, maybe it was a beast attack, or maybe it was snowing heavily at that time, and Shen Zhiyi froze to death directly.

As for why the dog didn't die, and he has lived in this deep mountain and old forest for decades, we can't know the truth anymore.

All the truth has been buried deep underground with his death.

"When I took his pulse just now, I found that he had a variety of diseases in his body."

Shi Xiu said suddenly: "He lives in this deep mountain and old forest, and he usually doesn't know what he eats to satisfy his hunger, but the things he eats are definitely not clean, and the bacteria and parasites he eats alone cannot make him live until now." ”

Zhang Rong was a little puzzled and asked, "But he did live to the present, how can this be explained......

Shi Xiu shook his head: "It's hard to say, logically speaking, each creature has different genetic permutations and combinations, and has its own set of survival modes, this kind of survival environment may be a viable environment for other animals, but it is definitely not good for humans." ”

"Those bacteria and parasites can make the dog barely live to the prime of life, which is already the limit, but it is impossible to live to old age, unless there is a supernatural force that controls his body."

We roughly understood what Shi Xiu was trying to say.

But now there is no point in discussing these, the people are gone.

"Damn, we didn't expect you to end up like this."

Zhang Rong stood in front of the grave and sighed: "I don't know what God wants to do, obviously let us save your brothers and sisters, but never let you go down the mountain, let you live alone on the mountain for decades." ”

"If we had known that this was the case, we would have preferred that you would have died in the subsidence of your year, at least not for so long."

"Now that you're dead, no matter what, after a lifetime of hardship, you will definitely vote for a good family in the next life."

"Let's go, let's come back to worship you before we go down the mountain."

After speaking, Zhang Rong put another biscuit and buried it in the ground.

On the way back, we passed by the cave again and subconsciously stopped at the entrance of the cave.

After a long time, Zhang Rong suddenly said: "Chen Mo, the person who called your name in the dream is really a dog, he can't speak at all......
