Chapter 1 The beginning of everything

(One)

The gentle breeze was mixed with the fragrance of vegetation in the jungle, wrapped in the last ray of warmth from the setting sun, like a girl's gentle little hand, patting Xu Mo's face one after another.

Xu Mo woke up in a daze.

"Where is this?" Seeing the unfamiliar scene in front of him, Xu Mo rubbed his eyes.

He was sitting in a dilapidated octagonal pavilion at the moment, leaning on a pillar, surrounded by dense forests, looking up, the mountains were stacked, and the setting sun was like blood.

"Didn't I doze off at home?"

Xu Mo recalled it.

That's right.

Today is Saturday, and he usually spends his days leisurely on his rest day. He turns on the TV, sits on the sofa, eats some snacks, and stares for a while when he wants to doze off.

Why are you staring here?

Xu Mo couldn't figure it out.

I was about to take out my phone to check what time it was, but ended up touching my pocket.

Nothing.

It wasn't that he didn't have a mobile phone, but that he didn't have a pocket. Xu Mo looked down and saw that the clothes didn't belong to him.

Wait a moment.

"Where are my glasses?" Xu Mo touched his face, his expression gradually becoming frightened.

Soon he figured out the current situation, this is not his rented house, let alone the clothes, not even this body.

This is easy to confirm, not myopia, thin skin and tender flesh, seems younger, still has long hair, tied on top.

Xu Mo's scalp went numb for a moment, and his head became clouded.

"What's going on?" Xu Mo muttered, looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, Xu Mo was a little dazed and at a loss.

He tried to walk around and take a look, hoping to find something.

Step out of the octagonal pavilion and walk in the direction of the setting sun.

The further he walked, the more uncertain Xu Mo felt.

This place is completely deep in the mountains and old forests. He also found that the clothes he was wearing looked like the robes of the ancients. They were a little worn out, with worn-out shoes, and there were no modern objects on his body.

Maybe it's the ancients.

Thinking about it this way made me even more flustered.

Before, half of the setting sun had entered the hills. After walking around for a while, the remaining half of the sun had also set. There were no street lamps or any lighting equipment, and the surroundings quickly became extremely dark.

Xu Mo walked through the mountains and forests. After walking for a while, he vaguely saw a half-person-high stone tablet in front of him, surrounded by overgrown weeds.

Looking closer, there are three characters engraved on the irregular stone tablet.

'Ten Mile Slope'.

The place name looked familiar.

Suddenly, there was a wind on the flat ground. Xu Mo heard movement behind him, looked back while being puzzled, and saw a huge colorful tiger lying on his back in the dark grass, staring at him.

Facing the tiger's eyes, Xu Mo was stunned for a moment, then felt his scalp burst and his limbs were weak. Before he could react, the tiger in the grass pounced forward and opened its mouth to bite.

……

(two)

The gentle breeze was mixed with the fragrance of vegetation in the jungle, wrapped in the last ray of warmth blown from the setting sun, like a girl's gentle little hand, patted Xu Mo's face one after another.

Xu Mo woke up again.

But this time he woke up with a start. The pain of being bitten by the tiger and the extreme fear caused by it made him breathe heavily with his eyes wide open, as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

"Tiger? Me, I was eaten? What's going on?"

Xu Mo breathed heavily while reaching out to touch his neck.

No wounds.

What about the big tiger?
Also, isn't this the octagonal pavilion from before?
"Why am I back?"

Xu Mo stared round his eyes and looked around, with a strong sense of doubt and incomprehension in his eyes.

It wasn't until he saw the setting sun entering the hills on the other side, and the mountain breeze was cool, that he gradually extracted some valuable things from his messy thoughts to straighten out his thoughts.

"Am I dreaming just now, or have I really experienced those things?"

Now, Xu Mo has obviously experienced all this once, when the sun was setting, he suddenly woke up in the Bajiao Pavilion... But before he clearly ran to a place where the stone tablet of "Ten Mile Po" stood, and was eaten by a big tiger suddenly up.

That tiger is really big.

But now, he is intact.

This is impossible.

Thinking of this, Xu Mo immediately got up from the ground, and then ran forward according to the previous path.

Everything along the road is very familiar, and the more you look at it, the more frightened you are. This time it took a short time, and I saw the stone tablet of "Ten Mile Slope" in a short while. At this time, the setting sun was still showing a corner, and the sky had not completely darkened.

"Not a dream!"

Xu Mo looked at the stone tablet engraved with the words 'Ten Mile Slope', and his mind was full of thoughts.

Since it is not a dream, and there is a stone tablet, there must also be a tiger.

Xu Mo hurriedly looked towards the grass where the tiger was lurking before.

Nothing.

Come early?The tiger doesn't seem to be here yet.

At this time, a gust of wind blew past, Xu Mo was startled, secretly thought this was not a good place, so he ran quickly!

Get out of here first.

Xu Mo's heart beat faster, and he immediately chose a direction to run wildly.He didn't know what happened to him. From the current point of view, this incident was full of absurdity and unbelievable, completely beyond his cognition.

But at least one thing is certain, the previous experience of being eaten by a tiger does not seem to be a dream.

The mountains and forests are dense, and you can't distinguish things.

Xu Mo was completely wandering around, and he didn't know how far he ran. When he was exhausted and leaned on a tree to rest, the sky had completely darkened, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness.

From just now, Xu Mo heard movement in the surrounding forest.

It seemed that something was following him.

At this time, a gust of wind suddenly blew, and Xu Mo was thrown down as soon as he said something bad, and then his neck felt cold.

……

(three)

The gentle breeze was mixed with the fragrance of vegetation in the jungle, wrapped in the last ray of warmth from the setting sun, like a girl's gentle little hand, slapping Xu Mo's face again and again.

Xu Mo who woke up again was shocked.

He looked around with eyes full of disbelief, and touched his neck again. This time he was stunned for a while, and then he controlled his restless thoughts and began to analyze carefully.

Xu Mo's job is a system architect, and keeping rational and logical judgments is a kind of professional quality.

Recalling the incident from the beginning to the end, Xu Mo found that he should have fallen into some kind of supernatural infinite loop. One of the reasons for reaching this conclusion was because of some online novels and movies he often read on weekdays. The play has a similar setting.

All the incredible things that happen now can be included.

"I wake up in the Bajiao Pavilion, the sun has not yet set, and after the sun sets, I will be eaten by the tigers wandering here, and then the cycle repeats?"

This is a conclusion that Xu Mo came to.

Very supernatural.

Xu Mo thinks there is another possibility, that is, he is still sleeping on the sofa at home, and everything is just a dream.If so, then as long as you really wake up, everything will return to normal.

Perhaps it was because he knew that he would be eaten by tigers after dark, so Xu Mo didn't go anywhere this time. He changed into a comfortable position and watched the beautiful sunset.

Thoughts and mood also slowly calmed down.

"If, in case all of this is true, how many times will this situation of starting and ending and starting again be repeated? Assuming it is infinite, doesn't that mean that I will never be able to go back? The most important thing is that every time I will be eaten." Xu Mo couldn't help but think of this possibility.

All of a sudden, I was not in the mood to look at the scenery anymore, no matter how beautiful the scenery was.

"I have to do something!"

Xu Mo looked around, and found that there seemed to be nothing he could do.

He felt that evidence should be used first to prove that he was indeed in some kind of weird infinite loop.It can be understood as like a small video that has already been shot is playing in a loop, with a beginning and an end, and then restarting from the beginning after it is finished.

"It all started in this octagonal pavilion..." Xu Mo thought for a while, found a relatively sharp stone from the side, and carved a symbol '∞' on the pillar of the octagonal pavilion.

This is a sign.

"If it is really caught in some kind of infinite loop, every time it starts again, it is equivalent to restarting the world. Then next time, if this symbol does not appear, it can prove my previous speculation."

On the contrary, it is not.

Xu Mo thought it was a good idea.

He continued to think according to his own speculation.

Since there is a beginning, there must be an end.

It's just that I didn't wait until the end before being restarted.

'Restart' is not the end, but an accident, forced to do it again.

If we compare the waking up in the octagonal pavilion to the 'start' of everything, to the power button, then there must be a 'restart button'.

What triggers the 'restart'?
The experience of being eaten by a tiger twice told Xu Mo that being "eaten by a tiger" is the "reset button".

While thinking about it, time sneaked away minute by minute, and the setting sun sank into the hills inadvertently.

it's dark.

Vaguely, Xu Mo heard a roar of a tiger coming from the forest.

Unable to live up to the little heart began to beat wildly.

The terrible memory of being eaten earlier confused Xu Mo's mind, and he couldn't calm down to think.But he changed his mind, he was found and eaten by tigers when he went in the direction of 'Ten Mile Slope' twice before, so this time, starting from the Bajiao Pavilion, wouldn't it be possible to avoid the danger by walking in the opposite direction?
"Just do it."

Xu Mo immediately took action. At this time, it was completely dark, and in the dense forest, he could hardly see his fingers.

After walking towards the east for a while, suddenly there was movement not far behind. Xu Mo thought that it was most likely a tiger chasing him.

As a result, in the next second, he stepped on the air and fell off the cliff.

……

(four)

The gentle breeze was mixed with the fragrance of vegetation in the jungle, wrapped in the last ray of warmth from the setting sun, like a girl's gentle little hand, patting Xu Mo's face one after another.

Xu Mo's first reaction when he opened his eyes was that the 'restart button' was not eaten by a tiger, but 'death'.

"It turns out that as soon as I die, I will restart immediately."

Xu Mo muttered something, and then immediately looked at the pillar on which he engraved the mark.

The top is empty.

There is no '∞' mark he engraved last time.

This proves that after each restart the entire world is reset to how it was at the beginning.

There are advantages and disadvantages to this matter, not to mention the advantages, but the disadvantage that can be seen so far is that even if the tiger just ate itself last time, it is still hungry after the reset.

The tiger certainly didn't remember eating himself, but Xu Mo did.

It's definitely not a good memory.

So far, everything Xu Mo has experienced is very real, definitely not like a dream.

Although I don't want to admit it, it's the truth.

The top priority is to survive, otherwise, the infinite restart will be a terrifying 'prison' for him from which he cannot escape.

Xu Mo felt that he had no time to think wildly.

Now that you know that 'death' is the restart button, try to avoid it.

Looking at the direction of the setting sun, if the sun in this place also rises in the east and sets in the west, the direction of the setting sun is the west. From this point of view, the direction of Shilipo is also located in the west of the Bajiao Pavilion.

There are tigers over there, so you can't go there.On the east side of the Bajiao Pavilion, the terrain is dangerous, and there is a cliff. If you are not careful, you will fall down. Even if you don't fall, it is a dead end.

"You can try the north or the south."

Xu Mo didn't hesitate to go north and south, then go up first and then down.

Right now it's headed north.

While walking, while thinking.

After the previous three experiences, Xu Mo calculated that it would take more than half an hour, a maximum of 10 minutes, from the time he woke up at the Bajiao Pavilion to the time when the sun completely set.

This time is very critical.

Because when the sun sets in this place, it is really dark, and the open space is fine. In the mountains and forests, the moonlight can't shine in at all.

While it was still daylight, Xu Mo speeded up. Of course, he was very careful. He never wanted to experience the experience of falling down the mountain again.

Xu Mo was even more worried that the tiger would find him.

It is said that tigers can smell prey within five kilometers, and Shilipo is definitely not that far from Bajiao Pavilion, maybe not even one kilometer.

In other words, even if Xu Mo stayed in the Bajiao Pavilion all the time, the tiger would definitely find and eat him in the end.

Some things cannot be talked about.

As soon as you say it, come on.

As soon as he thought of this, Xu Mo heard a tiger roar behind him.

Damn, I really came after it.

After cursing, he immediately speeded up, even if the branches along the road scratched his clothes and arms, he didn't care.

It is better to suffer a little skin trauma than to be bitten by a tiger.

But Xu Mo also knew very well that in the mountains and forests, it is impossible for a human to outrun a tiger.

Sure enough, in less than half a minute, the colorful tiger chased after it, and the wind blew its neck. It was a thrill, and it was a despair, but at the moment of being thrown down, Xu Mo had an unexpected discovery.

About a hundred meters ahead, there seemed to be a faint light flashing.

Like a lantern!

This made Xu Mo's heart move.
