Chapter 4: Time and Space Walker
"Hey, hey, little buns, are you talking!"
Bao Arc also wanted to speak, but the man in front of him who looked like a man was sitting at home, and he didn't dare to open his mouth!
"Why don't you put down the phone first, and let's sit down and talk slowly!" the man in the wool top hat spoke, his voice the same as the hoarse voice of Bao Arc's morning ghost. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Wang Min kept calling Bao Arc's name on the other end of the phone, but Bao Arc didn't have the heart to chat with her. I hung up the phone casually.
Since he was not a ghost, he could enter his house silently, and he sat there calmly, as if he was waiting for him. Then he should have something. But what could find him, an unborn seventeen-year-old young man, and how capable he was, he knew very well.
The man in the wool top hat sat on the main seat of the sofa, and the bag arc could only sit on one side. Bao Arc peeked in, and saw that the man's coat was huge, enveloping his whole body in it, the collar also covered his cheeks, the brim of his wool top hat was also very wide, his head was only slightly lowered, and the brim of the hat buried his entire face in it, no matter from any angle, his face could not be seen, and even the sides were tightly covered.
The only thing that could be seen was a pocket watch without a lid hanging from his chest, a thin silver-white iron chain around his neck. There are several scratches on the side of the pocket watch, which looks a little old! But the strange thing is that the time on this watch is actually 9:26, but now it is only about 3 o'clock in the afternoon!
"Has your tail grown?!" the man in the wool top hat spoke, his voice still hoarse, but the question was the same as in the morning. And listening to the tone, it seems that it is just a statement, as if he has long known that Bao Arc has grown a tail!
But Bao Arc dared to swear that he had never revealed the matter of growing a tail to anyone except himself.
I don't know why, after seeing this man, Bao Arc no longer felt the fear that he had in the morning, but felt very kind, as if there was some kind of connection between him and the man in the coat.
Almost subconsciously, Bao Arc replied, "Well, grow out!"
As soon as he spoke, Bao Arc already regretted it, but then he found that the other party's aura had changed, and his shoulders sank slightly, as if he was secretly relieved.
The man in the wool top hat spoke again, but his tone became more solemn, solemn, and even solemn.
“... Give you a minute, think about it and answer me!"
Sister Si Ya?!Do I love her?!
What kind of hell is this, Bao Arc didn't think about it at all, he thought that the other party would say something earth-shattering, but he didn't expect the other party to talk to him about lifelong events.
However, seeing the other party asking himself this question so heavily, presumably Si Yamei should occupy a very important position in the other party's heart.
Subsequently, Bao Arc thought a lot about Si Yamei, of course, these things basically had nothing to do with him. Her smile, her bangs, and her slightly tightened brow all came through her mind.
Suddenly, Bao Arc found that Si Yamei had taken root in his heart, which was an indelible mark.
At this time, Bao Arc's gaze gradually became resolute.
"I see!"
Without waiting for Bao Arc to speak, the man in the wool top hat spoke first, he seemed to have a pair of see-through eyes, and he could see the changes in Bao Arc's eyes through the hat.
"Let me introduce myself first, I am a space-time cultivator, referred to as a space-time walker, you can call me a bow, a bow of bows and arrows! The purpose of my coming here is to make you my space-time apostle... Would you like to?"
Time and Space Cultivator?!Time and Space Apostle?!Bow?!
As if knowing the question in Bao Arc's heart, Gong said again, "Time and space cultivators, as the name suggests, are immortal cultivators who travel back and forth between the past and the future! They are the guardians of this time and space! Our task is to eliminate or change some major crisis events, so that this time and space will always follow the original time and space trajectory and develop smoothly Walkers! And the Time and Space Apostle can be said to be the inheritor of the time and space walkers... Or call it an apprentice!"
Through time and space?!Immortal cultivator?!
Bao Arc felt that he was talking to a madman, but he would not break it, he wanted to gradually break the other party's lies, he asked, "Wait, since you can travel through time and space, and you are an immortal cultivator, why do you want to go back to the past or the future to find an inheritor?
Bow was silent for a moment, and said, "Because I can't make any changes to people or events in the past or the future, except for the Apostles of Time and Space... If a space-time walker takes action, the entire space-time chain will be chaotic, and irreversible events will occur. Then... It will pose a great threat to people in the future, and even... Devastating Blow... Moreover, once the space-time walker makes a move, the space-time bureau will arrest him in the future, and at that time, he will be handed over to the space-time court for trial, and according to the size of his impact on the space-time chain, he will be judged in some way!"
Although Bao Arc has some understanding of the paradox of time and space, he has not studied it in depth, after all, he is only a senior in high school, and he is also a student in country Z...
But the chain reaction mentioned by the bow can also be understood by the arc, which is nothing more than a pattern similar to the butterfly effect, except that this change is the result of crossing time and space.
"Okay! if you have a point, go on!" but Bao Arc remained skeptical.
"The task of a space-time walker is to help the space-time messenger improve his strength, and secondly, to give the space-time messenger a task, which is the most basic responsibility of being a space-time walker... And you are the apostle I chose!"
The bow still had its head down, but raised its index finger to point at the arc. At this time, Bao Arc found that the other party was wearing a pair of black leather gloves, but the texture seemed to be very hard.
"Why? Why was I chosen?"
When Bao Arc asked this sentence, he suddenly thought that the other party had asked him twice if there was no such sentence when his tail grew, and he understood why the other party chose him.
"Because... You have a spiritual root, which is the tail that you have just grown!"
Sure enough, that's the reason!
But the next moment, the word Linggen made Bao Arc wonder again, "What is Linggen?"
The bow always maintained a hoarse voice, and it is unknown if he was in this way, or if he deliberately changed it to this voice.
"This has to start from the root of the immortal cultivator, before the First World War, the spiritual root of the immortal cultivator was hidden in the tailbone, that is, in the tailbone of a normal person, because at that time, the aura of heaven and earth on the earth was strong, and there was no need to worry about not being able to sense the aura. However, since the Great War, the aura of heaven and earth has decreased dramatically, and the pattern of immortal cultivators looking for heirs from ordinary people has changed instantly. Because the spiritual root hidden in the body is difficult to feel the aura of heaven and earth, and only the spiritual root can be felt when it stands out from the outside of the body, which makes the inheritance of immortal cultivators extremely difficult. ... Not everyone can grow spiritual roots out of their bodies on their own!"
Indeed, before the First World War, the earth was still sunny and white, and the temperature was normal all year round, after that, a large number of factories rose from the ground, making the earth extremely polluted, especially now, haze, has become a problem that human beings need to deal with urgently.
Bao Arc asked, "Could it be that in my time and space, I am the only one who has grown a spiritual root on my own?"
Gong shook his head and said, "No, there are many people like you!"
"Many? Then they're all space-time apostles!"
"No! Not everyone who grows a spiritual root has the potential of a time and space walker!" "Bow said, "This has to talk about the understanding of the spirit root! As long as you are not a time and space walker and an apostle, the spirit root has another name for you - the spirit tail! And the name of the person who grows the spirit tail is called 'Stranger' or 'Alien'. The depletion of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is an extremely serious blow to immortal cultivators, and the spiritual roots that have just grown do not have the conditions for cultivating immortals. Moreover, after the spiritual root grows, due to the influence of the geographical environment, the more polluted the place, the more the spiritual root will be eroded, resulting in a decline in the quality of the spiritual root, and it is extremely difficult to feel the spiritual energy, but the spiritual root will bring different abilities to the human body. ... The alien divides the different spirit roots into four grades, the white spirit tail, the ethereal spirit tail, the elemental spirit tail, and the special spirit tail. Among them, most of the special spirit tail aliens are in poor and remote places, because the air quality there is high, the aura is relatively rich, and the grade of the spiritual roots produced is naturally superior.
Secondly, there are the elemental spirit tails, which are divided into six main elemental spirit tails: water, fire, thunder, wind, earth, and wood, among which there are some mutated element spirit tails, such as: ice, rock, lava, and so on. In a spirit tail, if there are more types of elements, the faster and more the alien can feel the aura. Generally speaking, as long as the elemental spirit tail is formed, the aura will be felt, and it will officially step into the ranks of immortal cultivators.
Ethereal tail, also known as air tail, anyone who has this kind of spirit tail can feel the air and will use the air, but this kind of spirit tail we call defective products, because even if it is formed, the chance of wanting to feel the aura is less than 1 in 10,000!
The white spirit tail, this spirit tail can't even be called a spirit root, it is too badly eroded by the turbid air. It only brings physical enhancement to the alien, and has no other use. There is at least a 1 in 10,000 chance that you can feel the aura when the ethereal tail is formed, but the white spirit tail will never be able to feel the aura, so we all call it the waste spirit root!"
After hearing this, Bao Arc felt that he had seen another world, which was formed by a group of people with tails. Moreover, there is a strict hierarchy in this world.
Bao Arc showed a clear expression and said, "Oh! I understand! This white spirit tail is equivalent to a commoner, belonging to the most basic aliens; the ethereal tail is equivalent to a businessman, and occasionally one or two listed companies will appear; the elemental spirit tail is powerful, it is equivalent to a minister-like figure, and there is also a chance to seek power and usurp the throne; what is even more terrifying is the special spirit tail, they are directly relatives of the emperor and the country, and they want to make countless strangers worship the characters... You say, isn't that the reason?"
The bow was silent for a moment, and finally nodded with difficulty, acquiescing to the statement of the arc.
Then, Bao Arc asked again, "But what do you mean by spiritual root formation, is it the same as Pokemon, and it is divided into a complete body, an ultimate body or something?"
The bow of the shoulder trembled a little, but immediately regained his composure, and patiently explained, "Forming!" means that the spiritual root grows one meter, and at that time, the spiritual root will become a real spiritual root, and only then can you feel the spiritual energy, but it does not include the white spiritual tail. But the aliens divided the length of the spiritual root into a hierarchy. It is roughly divided into one to three feet, and one meter is the longest length of the spiritual root. Generally speaking, a spirit root with a length of three feet below can compete with a spirit root with a top one foot at a time. For example, the strength of a three-foot white spirit root alien will be on par with the strength of a one-foot ethereal root alien, if a white spirit root alien under three feet confronts a one-foot ethereal root alien, only those who will be killed instantly!"
"The gap is so big?" Bao Arc suddenly thought of something, and said, "Then what kind of spiritual root am I?"
"For now, you're just a White Spirit Root Alien!"
"What?!I'm actually a civilian-level alien?, that is, a waste spirit root?!" Bao Arc's eyes widened, and his face was incredulous, "Then why did you choose me as your apostle?"
"No comment!"
This sentence almost choked Bao Arc to death, but then he asked again, "What do you mean by saying 'for now'?
"As long as you practice according to the exercises I gave you, there is also the possibility of evolving to a high-grade spiritual root!"
"Cut! I thought I could evolve!" Bao Arc pouted. But he didn't realize that he didn't know when he no longer doubted the other party, and he was ashamed to ask questions like a good student. And I listened to it with relish.
"Hmm... If I practice according to the exercises you gave, is it possible to become a time and space walker, and is it possible to become an immortal cultivator?"
"It should be possible! As long as you cultivate well and can complete the task, it is possible for a space-time walker or an immortal cultivator!"
Bao Arc jumped up from the sofa and excitedly said, "OK...! I'm asking, what kind of strength will become a space-time walker, because according to what you said, the space-time apostle can only move in his own primordial space-time, and cannot travel through time and space at all!"
Gong nodded and said, "Yes, the Time and Space Apostle can't travel through! As for the conditions for becoming a Time and Space Walker, it's about three feet of spirit root! You should soon meet the conditions!"
Bao Arc felt the spiritual root less than a centimeter behind his buttocks, and suddenly it was like a deflated balloon, and his body softened.
Three feet, that is, the length of ninety-nine points and nine centimeters, and his spiritual tail is only about five millimeters, so it will have to wait until what year and month will it grow to be that long!
He also wants to travel back in time and buy some lottery tickets and other things quickly, so that he can live a rich and handsome life!
"I've said everything I have to say!Come, take this!" the bow handed me at some point, took out a pocket watch that was the same as the one hanging from his chest, and handed it to Bao Arc.
After taking this pocket watch, Bao Arc found that the time on this pocket watch was consistent with the time and space time he was in!
"Why do you give me this?"
"This is what an apostle of time and space should have, called a 'time table', and its purpose is to allow me to quickly find the stage of time and space you are in!"
Bao Arc was a little stunned, "Hey, is there any mistake, I haven't agreed to be your apostle yet!"
Gong didn't answer and asked, "Do you love Si Yamei?"
Forehead?!
There was no doubt about this question, but he felt that it seemed too casual to become someone else's apostle so casually!
"If you love her, take it! I'm going to give you a mission!"
Bao Arc hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth vigorously, put on his pocket watch neatly, and sat up straight, ready to accept the task.
Gong seemed to nod and said, "It's November 30, 2018, and before 8:30 on December 26, 2018, I want you to kill a person, and he is called Sha Eight Days! ”
Homicide?!
Bao Arc was dumbfounded again, he had lived so big, he hadn't even fought, and now he was asked to kill people?
"That's... Can you not kill people, I am a good citizen who abides by the law and discipline, and it is better to leave the matter of killing people to the police uncle!"
Bow shook his head, "You must understand that from the moment you become an apostle, you are no longer an ordinary person, and the laws of ordinary people are no longer suitable to be used to talk about things. Moreover, the world of the alien is a world of the jungle, and if you don't agree, you will lose your life, and you must adapt to your own changes as soon as possible. Otherwise, your fate will be ugly!Moreover, you must complete this mission, it is related to Si Yamei's safety!"
What?!Is it about Si Yamei's safety?!
Bao Arc suddenly thought of an important piece of information, December 26th, isn't that Si Yamei's birthday! Could it be that the eight days of that day will pose a threat to Si Yamei?
"Also, the fact that you are a stranger, you must not let Si Yamei know that if you love her, you must hide your identity as a stranger. Moreover, I must not reveal my identity and that of you as a Time Walker to anyone, including those closest to you!"
Regarding the matter of walkers and apostles, Bao Arc can understand that if I tell others that I have a master from the future, it will invisibly affect the order of the space-time chain, and it will cause trouble to the future at that time.
But what he couldn't understand was, why couldn't he tell Si Yamei that he was a stranger?
Gong always seemed to be able to guess what Bao Arc was going to ask, and he said again, "Don't ask! Si Yamei will never know that you are a stranger, and you will know the reason in the future!"
“... Next, I will pass you a set of leg techniques as the basis for you to improve your strength and deal with all kinds of troubles!"
"Wait!" Bao Arc suddenly shouted to stop the other party's movements, and then, his face turned a little red, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
"That's... Can you give me some money! Something is going on in my family, and I want to help my parents... I'll pay you back later!"
Consternation!
As a result, the bow raised his chin slightly, and although he immediately lowered his head again, Bao Arc still saw the other party's skin hidden under the brim of his coat and hat.
White, ruddy white, healthy white, like a baby's skin, as if it could be broken by blowing.
He looked at his bronzed skin again, and he looked even more embarrassed!
In the face of Bao Arc's request, although the bow was stunned, he still reacted immediately, and he didn't see his hand in his pocket, and a bright red bill appeared in his hand.
"This is just taken in the morning, there are not many of them, you take it first and use it, and bring you more next time!"
Next, before Bao Arc could speak, he saw the bow stretch out his right index finger and point at the center of his eyebrows.
The finger was slow, and he could almost see the folds of the other man's black gloves, but the next moment, the finger had already hit the center of his eyebrows. But Gong himself was still sitting on the sofa, and the length of his arm couldn't reach Bao Arc's head at all, but that finger seemed to ignore the distance of space, and just lightly touched Bao Arc's head!
The next moment, Bao Arc only felt that his mind was slightly swollen, and then, he was unconscious!
