At this time, Xia Guo was in the live broadcast room.

Jiang Zhe feasted on the delicacies of the mountains and seas on the table in the huge box self-service hall.

His main purpose is to find a suitable and comfortable place, to speculate and analyze the rules, and to eat is improvised.

With the end of the twenty or thirty dishes in front of him, Jiang Zhe took off the white towel around his neck, then picked up the white towel and wiped his mouth, then picked up the blue bottle of soda on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and nodded with satisfaction until a full hiccup came out.

"Thank you, First Emperor for your hospitality!"

At this moment, the wooden door was pushed open, and a waiter in black walked in, holding a pot of roast beef thighs in his hand.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhe raised his hand to stop, "It's already finished, there's no need to serve it." ”

The waiter looked at the clean tabletop, was stunned, and secretly thought: "Twenty or thirty dishes, at least more than 100 catties, he ate more than 100 catties alone." Damn, who the hell is this guy, is the stomach a black hole? ”

Then the waiter turned around and left the box, telling the front desk that there was no need to serve any more food.

Jiang Zhe shouted outward: "Bring me paper and pen." ”

"Got it!"

Not long after, the waiter walked in with a small black book and a black ballpoint pen and handed it to Jiang Zhe, "Sir, is there any need for me?" ”

Jiang Zhe thought for a while and asked jokingly: "What is your education?" ”

The waiter responded, "Bachelor." ”

"College students?"

"Well, it's also a college student, and it's smarter than a college student."

"Smarter than a college student, you're still here to work as a waiter?"

As a result, the waiter looked at Jiang Zhe with a puzzled expression, "This profession is under the jurisdiction of the royal family, and this industry is also under the jurisdiction of the royal family." ”

Hearing this, a subtle expression flashed on Jiang Zhe's face, the waiter in this world is equivalent to a civil servant in his own world, an iron rice bowl.

He asked curiously, "What do you think about the paradox and fatalism of time?" ”

The waiter showed an interesting expression and responded, "This gentleman, do you want to compete with me, in science?" ”

Jiang Zhe nodded lightly, "Sort of, I'm bored, find someone to talk to." ”

Seeing that Jiang Zhe was a science student, the waiter sat next to him unceremoniously, looking at Jiang Zhe with a challenging smile, "Ok, I'll accompany you." What is the purpose of the question? ”

Jiang Zhe's mind moved, and he checked the rules.

[Rule 1...]

[Rule 2: Where did this box of elixir come from?] 】

[Rule 3: Why did this box of medicine change from 1 to 2? 】

Then he opened his eyes and said the title: "Let's discuss the problem of the elixir of the First Emperor today." ”

The handsome-looking waiter looked stunned, and then suddenly realized, "Hahaha, this problem is a problem that our Great Qin Empire has been on fire for 2,000 years, and it is difficult for anyone to give the truth." Brother, I know what you want to ask. ”

Jiang Zhe asked curiously, "You know?" ”

The waiter nodded hurriedly: "Yes, the Internet is full of these questions, and there is no definite answer so far." What you want to ask is - the First Emperor gave a great god who can travel through time and space in modern times, and as far as I know, the First Emperor gave the person who traveled through time and space an elixir. Then the person who traveled back to the Qin Dynasty 2,000 years ago in ancient times, and the person who traveled found that there were two pills in the box, right? ”

Jiang Zhe raised his eyebrows, and said with a surprised face: "Completely correct, tell me, why did the elixir of life become 2, and where did this elixir come from?" ”

The waiter smiled and explained:

"Where did the elixir come from, is it man-made, or is it naturally generated?"

"On this point, it is worth pondering, and the jury is still inconclusive."

"Let's assume now that it's you, this gentleman, and you're the time-traveler, okay?"

Jiang Zhe nodded, "No problem." ”

Then Jiang Zhe wrote the two rules on a piece of paper and handed them to the waiter to browse.

The waiter took it, and after browsing, he explained:

"You traveled to this era, at this time you didn't know the First Emperor, we called him 'Mysterious Uncle', and then the uncle gave you a pill, and then you began to travel back to the Qin Dynasty through time and space, but at this time your sandalwood box suddenly turned into two pills."

"I'll start with the current mainstream narrative: time is linear, and everything has a sequence."

"If time is linear, it means that time moves in one direction, from the past to the present to the future."

"It means that events are fixed on a timeline and cannot be changed or altered no matter what happens; Once something is done, it is irreparable. ”

This model also suggests that history follows an orderly process, with causal relationships between events determined by natural laws or processes. The concept of progress is also deeply rooted in the linear model, as it implies that society will continue to move forward over time if certain conditions remain the same.

"However, if there is a person in the world who can travel through time and space, then the keyword [linear time] can be ignored for the time being."

"And then there is."

"The Qin Dynasty is the past. Today – is the present, tomorrow – is the future. ”

"In the case of linear time, we started to push it down."

"If a thing has a beginning and an end, then it is the beginning, development, and end."

"The starting point is: Sir, you travel to where we are today, which is now."

"At the moment of your arrival, the mysterious uncle, not to mention the uncle, that uncle is the first emperor who has lived for two thousand years, he handed you the sandalwood box in his hand, there is a pill in the box, and what you see at this time is a pill. Then you ask the First Emperor what this is, and then the First Emperor says that it was given to him by an immortal in the Qin Dynasty, Ok, at this moment, the [cause] in cause and effect has been planted, and then you will encounter everything in the mouth of the First Emperor, and then become the [Immortal] in the mouth of the First Emperor. ”

"At this point, the starting point ends, and the [development] begins."

"[Development]: You can know that the emperor handed over the sandalwood box of the two pills to Qin Shi Huang in the Qin Dynasty 2,000 years ago, that is, when you traveled back to the past, and then you told Qin Shi Huang exactly to hand over this pill to you. Then after you left, Qin Shi Huang ate one of the pills and saved one. ”

"At this point, the development is over, and the [end] begins."

"[End]: 2000 years later, that is, today, that is, the end, Qin Shi Huang handed the elixir of life to his hand, [fruit]: After the first emperor handed over the elixir to you, it became [fruit], and then you talked to the first emperor, and the first emperor said that this elixir was given to him by an immortal in the early days of our Great Qin 2000 years ago, Ok, at this moment, the [cause] in cause and effect was planted again, and then you began to travel through time and space, back to the Qin Dynasty 2000 years ago."

"In fact, from here, you can find that in linear time, there is actually a never-ending cycle, an endless cycle, no matter how you answer it, you can't give a definite answer, and you can't even explain why the pill is added by one, and you can't explain where the pill comes from."

Jiang Zhe nodded silently and looked at the waiter with an interesting face, "The people of Daqin are very smart!" ”

The waiter continued to explain absentmindedly:

"So the elixir, where did it come from, was it made by the First Emperor, isn't it?"

"So where did the elixir come from, did you make it, no."

"Since it is neither, then the linear timeline naturally cannot solve this [guidance paradox]."

Hearing all this, Jiang Zhe looked at the waiter with appreciation, "Well, you see very clearly, and the level is not low!" ”

The waiter scowled, "It's just a small problem." ”

Seeing this scene, the barrage in the live broadcast room couldn't stop surging like a tide.

"This waiter brother is a good cow!"

"Actually, it's not that he's a cow, but that he can explain one thing clearly and make people feel like a cow."

"Yes, in fact, if you put a junior high school student to explain, he can also talk about the truth, but the key is that he can't solve it."

"After listening to the waiter's handsome explanation, and then looking at Mr. Jiang's performance, I'm afraid the linear timeline really can't be answered."

“...”

In the expert group, the experts looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

They had just discussed how the elixir would come!

However, no matter how it is discussed, it cannot be answered within a linear timeline.

But Su Cheng has a saying: [Parallel Universe].

After this statement was thrown, it was refuted by Liu Yuxin.

Liu Yuxin said that once the parallel universe is named, it may be possible to clear the level, but there is a high probability that the score will not be qualified, after all, the [parallel universe] does not meet the paradox of the fourth level in the 13-star dungeon at all.

At this point, the experts did not go into further discussion, but quietly looked at the big screen and listened carefully.

Jiang Zhe looked at the waiter brother and asked again: "Since you said that linear time can't be answered, then there must be a second explanation, right?" ”

The waiter nodded and explained: "The second statement is: annular space-time. ”
