Chapter 725

“Hello… Cheng Lin.”

On the top of the ten thousand peaks, on the large square in front of the Dragon Hall at dusk, Cheng Lin was holding the hilt of the Hejian, his ears were greetings from the other side, but his eyes suddenly tightened.

Shi Shengcun!

No, to be precise, it should be the white-haired “Shi Shengcun” he had seen far away in the last deduction!

How did he appear here?

At this moment, many thoughts came to Cheng Lin’s mind.

Even for a moment, he began to suspect that he was still in the world of deduction, rather than reality.

However, in an instant, he realized that this was an illusion-it was indeed located in reality, and the white-haired guy in front of him was not illusory.

“You don’t have to be nervous, I am not malicious, and even if there is, I can’t directly hurt you due to the rules between time and space.” Shi Shengcun was not surprised when he saw his reaction.

A sincere smile appeared on that plain, particularly vicissitudes of face.

He is indeed very similar to “Shi Shengcun”, even wearing the same style, the same clothes, shoes, glasses, even hairstyle, oh, and the pen in his pocket.

It’s just that the face is more vicissitudes, the hair is gray, and the temperament is more ethereal.

“Are you… waiting for me?” Cheng Lin squinted his eyes, and took an impenetrable breath, trying to calm Own’s emotions. He knew that in any case, keeping calm would never be wrong.

“I thought you would ask who I am.” Shi Shengcun smiled and said.

Cheng Lin pursed his lips. This was indeed the question he had instinctively asked, but after calming down, he temporarily changed the question.

Seeing that he didn’t answer, Shi Shengcun nodded:

“Indeed, I am really here waiting for you, um, I’m sorry, I can only choose to meet you here, and I can only stay here for a short period of time, so I hope I can make a long story short. ”

Cheng Lin frowned slightly, chewing on the meaning of the other party’s words, and asked: “What do you want to say to me?”

He still did not choose to ask about the identity of the other party.

After hearing this, Shi Shengcun suddenly turned around, turned his back without reservation, and cast his eyes to the west. In the direction of the sun, he did not answer directly, but said:

“What do you think… what is destiny?”

destiny?

Cheng Lin frowned again and looked at the shadow cast by the opponent on the square under the sun. He was sure that he did not feel any hostility. So, he hesitated and withdrew his defensive posture, but still held the Hejian:

“Appreciate further details.”

As he said, he slowly walked forward, came to the edge of the big square, and cast his gaze to the west as well-he was a little curious, wondering what the other party was looking at.

The mountain is too high, stand high, so you can see farther.

It was autumn, and the world was withered and yellow. Looking down from such a high place, countless mountains and rivers appeared in the field of vision. Between the mountains, there was a river from the west.

I don’t know where the river originated, but referring to the geomorphology of the earth, it is likely to also originate from the snow-capped mountains in the extreme west. The boundless land nourishes this fertile soil.

Under the sunlight, the countless rivers looked extremely dazzling.

“In my opinion, destiny is like this river,” Shi Shengcun did not turn his head, still looking at the earth intently, with a slight emotion in a low tone, “It doesn’t know where it originated or where it is going. Just rushing intently, in the journey of time, it will encounter countless boulders and fork roads, so it is forced to diverge countless tributaries.

Each tributary will repeat similar encounters and diverge again…

Oh, do you think they look like a huge tree lying on the ground? The main stem, the branches…or the blood vessels in our body…

They have amazing similarities, as if they are united in the dark…”

Shi Shengcun did not rush to say some weird words. If ordinary people listened to them, they would probably only laugh. Even Cheng Lin a day ago would probably only think that this was chaotic babbling.

It’s just…At this moment, Cheng Lin suddenly thought of the scene in the memory fragments of adelaide’s exploration last night, and remembered what appeared in the fragments, the Star epic giant that once stood by the Dragon City riverside, quietly gazing at the tributaries of the water. Dragon……

So, he fell into contemplation, and after a while, he frowned and repeated:

“Rivers, branches, blood vessels…”

“Of course, this is just a metaphor, and it does not directly reflect the fundamentals of fate,” Shi Shengcun explained, “but this does not prevent us from using this’model’ to think about problems.”

“Thinking about fate?”

“To be precise, it is the fate of the world.” Shi Shengcun turned his head and looked at him, as if he was organizing the language, “Do you still remember the sentence you saw every time you deduced it?”

He really knew the existence of deduction!

Cheng Lin thought in his heart, his expression was awkward, and then he remembered the sentence:

At every moment, there are a million possibilities for the direction of civilization.

Then he thought for a few seconds and said, “Possibility?”

His instinct told him that the core of this sentence is “possibility.”



“Yes,” Shi Shengcun affirmed, and immediately pointed to the front, the cobweb-like complex water veins on the boundless earth, “If you compare the world of your life to that river, then every second will be due to various changes, There are countless tributaries.

Well, using a more popular concept, it is similar to parallel universes, except that every universe has subtle differences. After that, in the next second, countless branches are divided again… and the factors that affect differentiation can be called ‘possibility’. ”

This concept is not difficult to understand, just like Cheng Lin walking at a crossroads, he may go left or right.

So, at the moment he made a choice, two different universes were differentiated.

In one of them, he chose to go to the left, which led to a story. In the other universe, he chose to go to the right, so…that was a different story.

And such choices happen countless times every second, so it can be inferred that every second, countless worlds appear, just like tributaries separated on the main trunk.

This concept is not new, but it has never been proven.

“You mean, every time I start a deduction, it is equivalent to opening up a’tributary’? It’s like creating a new world?” Cheng Lin asked.

Shi Shengcun shook his head slightly:

“It’s not entirely accurate. In fact, the change of destiny is never influenced by any life, at least, not by us. Each deduction of yours does not create a new world, but just enters the world that has already occurred. That’s it.”

“I don’t quite understand.” Cheng Lin frankly expressed own confusion.

Shi Shengcun thought for a while and explained:

“Possibility exists objectively and is not affected by our will. Just like the river below, you and I are all a drop of water in it. In every second of your life, the world changes differently, so There will be countless worlds born.

The vast majority of these worlds have not undergone essential changes, but there are also a few that will undergo drastic changes.

Such as suffering from various disasters.

As a result, they will become completely different from the backbone…

The deduction only allows you to pass through the barriers between the universes and enter the parallel world after the tremendous changes. ”

“Like I entered this world?” Cheng Lin asked.

“Probably that’s it.”

There was a moment of silence on the huge square.

Cheng Lin’s eyes changed slightly. After a while, he said, “So, all the deductions I experienced are real?”

“Of course. The only difference is that the disaster is not caused by you pressing the button, but by itself.”

“What about the projection? Why is there a projection in the world I am in after I finish the game?”

Cheng Lin asked.

“Remember the thirteenth deduction? The world after the catastrophe and the dragon world are only separated from each other, and different universes occasionally overlap, just as different rivers occasionally converge somewhere, and then again. Separate again, there is naturally a certain accident in this, but there is also room for manipulation.”

“And the short overlap of the two worlds is the fundamental factor in the formation of the projection.” At this point, he gently pushed down the glasses, and then said with complex eyes, “It must be admitted that their appearance has a great impact on me. Associated.”

“So, you are the creator of this program?” Cheng Lin looked at the other party without moving his eyes.

“It’s not a program,” Shi Shengcun shook his head and emphasized, “I have never understood programming. The so-called program is just a kind of…Well, a little spiritual skill. You can understand it as a form of illusion. Such an illusion is projected in his mind, so it will only appear when you look at the screen.”

Although Cheng Lin had guessed after learning the truth of the deduction just now, when he really heard the answer, he was still in a daze.

Hallucinations…spiritual hallucinations…

He instantly thought of the “mental manipulation” ability he had just acquired, and understood the principle accurately.

And instantly realized that as early as half a year ago, he had been invisibly affected by the person in front of him on a spiritual level.

The so-called programs, the so-called “narration”, and the so-called buttons are just mental illusions.

At this moment, countless complex emotions emerged in Cheng Lin’s heart.

Want to laugh, but can’t laugh, want to be angry, but find that the same has never happened.

“I have to admit that this is definitely not a bright method. I have always wanted to explain it in person, but the time has not come.” Shi Shengcun looked down solemnly and regretfully. “However, even if it may be a little late, but I still want to say sorry.”
