Chapter 12 The Three Laws of the Millennium Pile (Additional Chapter for the Leader Guangying Bingyan.kp!!)
After bidding farewell to Zhang Shi and coming out of his home, Lin Xian and Gao Yang quickly walked to the elevator and pressed the button to the first floor:
"So, you see, Chu Anqing's disappearance has nothing to do with contact with space-time particles, including the space-time particles themselves! There is no connection at all!"
"These are two completely independent things! Now we can figure out Lin Xian. When Chu Anqing captured the space-time particles a few days ago, it didn't matter whether she touched the space-time particles or jumped out of the plane...even! Even if she didn't Come to this event and go back to school honestly, and she will definitely disappear on time at 00:42!”
"It's just that when she turned into blue stardust, she was probably in the dormitory, and she would definitely scare her roommates... In other words-"
"Chu Anqing herself is a millennium stake and has nothing to do with space-time particles. No matter where she is or what she does, nothing can stop her from turning into blue on time at 00:42 a.m. on March 28, 2024, the day she turns 20. Nothing can change this established fact that the Sex Star Chips have disappeared!”
Before the elevator door closed, Gao Yang concluded with excitement.
"That's right."
Lin Xian nodded:
"Zhang Shi probably didn't lie. Judging from Chu Anqing's situation, the reaction after touching the space-time particles was quite violent. You also saw that at that time, Chu Anqing just touched the space-time particles and screamed on the spot. My nose was bleeding, I was holding my head in great pain, and I was crying and shouting.”
"If Zhang Yuqian really came into contact with space-time particles, Zhang Shi and Yan Qin would not have noticed such a violent overreaction. And according to Zhang Shi's description, a family of three were talking and laughing in the car at that time, but Zhang Yuqian did not notice it at all. Nothing unusual. Since there was no overreaction, it can be determined that she was not touched by space-time particles."
"So, from now on, we can rule out the possibility that Zhang Yuqian disappeared because she came into contact with space-time particles... As you said, whether it is Zhang Yuqian or Chu Anqing, whether they come into contact with space-time particles or not, it will not affect their appearance in the world. The fate of disappearing at 20 years old and 42 minutes.”
"This is only reasonable. Otherwise, a space-time particle will appear on the earth every twenty years or so. There is no need to fight for the head like last time, right?"
"And we have verified it last time. The space-time particle will not take the initiative to find Chu Anqing. It simply ignores anyone. How can it take the initiative to find Zhang Yuqian?"
Ding--
The elevator door opens on the first floor.
Lin Xian and Gao Yang walked straight out and walked quickly towards the exit of the community.
This trip was really worth it.
Now we have collected many key clues, and then by comparing the Chu Anqing incident and the Zhang Yuqian incident, analyzing the similarities and differences, we can draw many accurate conclusions——
First, number one.
[The formation and disappearance of the Millennium Pile have nothing to do with space-time particles. They are two completely independent things. 】
The disappearance of Chu Anqing that Lin Xian witnessed a few days ago, because everything unusual happened after touching the space-time particles, caused some interference in his judgment.
But fortunately, there was a sample like Zhang Yuqian, and Uncle Zhang Shi told the truth about that year. Therefore, Lin Xian was able to deduce the absolutely accurate conclusion above.
On January 21, 2000, Zhang Yuqian turned into blue stardust and disappeared without touching the space-time particles and without any signs or abnormalities.
This is probably the correct way to drive millennium piles.
Silent.
Touch quietly.
You can complete the pile driving independently without the help of any external force or any external objects, locking history.
certainly……
Locking up history is currently just Lin Xian's guess.
It's most likely a correct guess, but I still don't understand what a vanished thousand-year-old pile and a disappeared 20-year-old girl rely on to seal history?
Then, after history is locked up, what will happen again?
These are all questions to be explored in the future.
at present.
Judging from the situation of the Millennium Stake, Zhang Yuqian is a real, qualified and running Millennium Stake as scheduled.
But looking back at Chu Anqing.
Because she accidentally touched the space-time particles, something unexpected happened.
She should have awakened some memory, or at that moment, realized some truth and answer.
Not only did she know clearly that she would die at 00:42.
and.
She also knew many other things, many remarkable things, which even made her very confident to write a small note to herself...telling herself that as long as she opens this small note in the dream world 600 years later, and reads the By reading the content, you can know the truth and falsehood of the world.
"Chu Anqing must have gained some memories after touching the space-time particles. That's why her reaction was so exaggerated and violent. Although I'm not sure what kind of memories Chu Anqing gained now... but it must be caused by the space-time particles. , and Huangque may not have known that space-time particles would affect the Millennium Pile before this."
Passing by the pavilion and small square in the middle of the community, the two of them took a quick look at the old woman peeling pomegranates, and continued walking towards the entrance of the community.
After listening to Lin Xian's words, Gao Yang added:
"Huang Que probably didn't know that Chu Anqing gained memories after encountering the space-time particles. Because you see, Huang Que was also very panicked at that time. It was obvious that it was the first time that she saw the Millennium Stake and Time and Space. Particle contact."
"I remembered that it was Chu Anqing who kept crying and asking Huang Que. Only then did Huang Que ask, "Do you know everything?" This shows that the situation at that time was beyond Huang Que's understanding! In fact, I felt that that day In the space-time particle capture plan, it seems that many things are beyond Oriole’s expectation, including various emergencies.”
Lin Xian nodded:
"But one thing is certain. Huang Que must know that the Millennium Pile can see the characteristics of space-time particles. This is the reason why she specially brought Chu Anqing on the aerospace plane but did not arrange a specific task for her."
"This also further confirms that when Zhang Yuqian disappeared on January 21, 2000, there were indeed no space-time particles around her. Otherwise, even if others could not see it, Zhang Yuqian could definitely see it. Now it can be confirmed."
"Not only that, Huang Que also knows that the Thousand-Year Stake will dissipate at 00:42 on her 20th birthday. This is also obvious. She has known for a long time that no matter whether Chu Anqing touches the space-time particles or not, it will definitely disappear at 00:42 She suddenly disappeared, so I yelled out at that time, saying that I didn’t need to save her...because she would disappear sooner or later, so why was there any need to save her?”
Suddenly.
Lin Xian recalled what Huang Que once said.
The woman said that if this space-time particle is lost, the future, the world, and everything will become very bad.
Therefore, in order to change all this, she planned such a desperate and dangerous space-time particle capture plan.
Oriole may have only seen and known about space-time particles before... but he has not caught space-time particles, at least not this one.
Same reason.
Huang Que has seen the Millennium Pile, knows that the Millennium Pile can see the characteristics of space-time particles, and knows that the Millennium Pile will disappear at 00:42 on his 20th birthday... but he does not know what will happen after the Millennium Pile touches the space-time particles. , which not only deviated from her known history, but also exceeded her knowledge.
"No wonder……"
Gao Yang snorted coldly:
"No wonder Huangque agreed so easily to Chu Anqing going out to capture space-time particles. Isn't this her original plan? She already knew that Chu Anqing would disappear anyway, so she didn't care about Chu Anqing's life or death at all, she just wanted to use it. Chu Anqing just caught the space-time particles!"
"Hey, this is hard to tell."
Lin Xian patted Gao Yang on the shoulder and advised him not to think about the past anymore.
No one knows what Huang Que’s original plan was.
At best, Huang Que might have brought Chu Anqing here just in case. After all, if Gao Yang gave some force and directly caught the space-time particles, why would Chu Anqing need to take action?
Thinking at the worst, Oriole may have known that Gao Yang could not catch the space-time particles and that the space-time particles would become transparent and invisible, so the only way to catch the space-time particles was to let Chu Anqing go out of the cabin to capture them.
"Things have passed Gao Yang. Huang Que may have done something wrong in some places, but the essence is also for me. So let's not dwell on this and look forward."
The two walked out of the community, took a taxi, and prepared to go back to the hotel to rest.
"you say……"
The two of them got into the back seat of the taxi. Gao Yang turned his head and looked at Lin Xian:
"After Chu Anqing encountered the space-time particles, what memory awakened in her mind? It can't be Zhang Yuqian's memory, right?"
Lin Xian shook his head:
"I'm not sure, and I can't guess. But I think she should have a lot of awakened memories, and they are very important. Zhang Yuqian's 20 years of life is too monotonous and simple, and it shouldn't be enough for Chu Anqing to be so confident. I wrote that little note."
"But this question is not important, because when I see the content on the note in the future, I should understand it. As Chu Anqing said at the time... I will definitely understand it. I believe her."
"So, let's not think about so many things now, and let's concentrate on summarizing the inferences about the Millennium Pile."
Said.
In his mind, Lin Xian deduced the second inference about the Millennium Pile based on the known clues:
[Since the disappearing time of the Thousand-Year Pile is fixed and unchangeable...that means that the interval between driving the Thousand-Year Pile is a stable 24 years. 】
So, a millennium stake is laid every 24 years...how long will it last?
Is it really going to take a thousand years?
That's not necessary...
Is a thousand years a long time?
Not to mention on the cosmic scale, even on the earth's time scale, a thousand years is not a very long time.
If we really count it in 1000 years.
A pile is driven every 24 years.
How many times will it take?
"1000 divided by 24..." Lin Xian was doing mental arithmetic.
"42."
Gao Yang blurted out:
"If it cannot be divided, round it up to 42. If it is 1008, it can be divided by 24, and the number is 42."
Lin Xian looked at Gao Yang in disbelief:
"You calculate very quickly."
"Isn't this often counted as a loan when buying a car..." Gao Yang chuckled:
"I do calculations like this about multiplication and division of 12, 24, and 36 every day. I calculate interest and interest rates... I do a lot of calculations, so of course I memorize them."
【42】
Lin Xian also didn't expect that this mysterious number would suddenly appear again.
The Millennium Pile, if it really takes a thousand years, does not actually have to be 1000 years. The year 1008 can also be called the Millennium Pile, which is allowed in conventional grammar.
not to mention……
The name of the Millennium Pile itself is not called Millennium Pile. This is Huangque's own vocabulary.
But self-creation is not random creation, nor blind creation.
Since Huangque chose the Millennium Pile instead of the Centenary Pile and the Ten Thousand Year Pile, it must have a special meaning.
Take this into consideration.
The Millennium Pile may or may not be an existence that is driven every 24 years and 42 times in total, for a total duration of a thousand years, which can lock in a total of 1008 years of history!
But this is also speculation.
It's still baseless, just random speculation.
…
Lin Xian's thoughts continued to return to the accurate deduction about the thousand-year stake.
In addition to the above two inferences, the third and final obvious inference can be derived:
[In reality, the Millennium Pile will exist in the form of a human girl. She will grow up like a normal girl. She will be born at 00:42 and dissipate at 00:42 on her 20th birthday, completing a pile driving. Moreover, every thousand-year-old pile looks exactly the same. 】
This is the third corollary.
Based on factual reasoning, it is absolutely correct.
But who is the first thousand-year-old and who is the first girl who looks like this in history... Lin Xian doesn't know, but it is definitely not Chu Anqing.
It is not difficult to infer from this that CC must have been running away for a thousand years.
“I don’t know when CC was born or how old she is.”
Lin Xian thought to himself.
if……
If CC’s date of birth is 00:42 on August 29, 2604...
Really, everything coincided with each other like a coincidence.
My dreams are always destroyed by white light on time at 00:42 on August 29, 2624.
so.
Where did the white light come from?
If CC is really a millennium stake, then she is the one who should turn into blue stardust and disappear! Why do you want to blast yourself with white light? Burn the whole world?
This is something Lin Xian doesn't understand.
The main reason is……
He still doesn't know what the white light in the dream is about.
There are different explanations based on different ideas, and Lin Xian is not sure which one it is.
Maybe that white light didn't mean that the world was destroyed, but that he was killed, or it was simply the end of the dream, or other reasons.
This is another person who does not know the true face of Mount Lu, but only lives in the "cone of light" in this mountain.
Because he was destroyed by white light.
so.
It is impossible for him not to know what the world is like after the white light, what the world is like outside the white light, and what is the cause of the white light? What is the purpose?
Lin Xian, who is "within the light cone", is destined to never find the answer.
"Just take it one step at a time."
Lin Xian felt that he was thinking a little too far, and now his fourth dream was still stuck.
After I have dealt with all the things in the East China Sea, I have to find a way to see if I can resurrect VV, and then officially start a war with Kevin Walker and start a new round of cat-and-mouse game where you catch me and I catch you.
Once Kevin Walker is successfully eliminated.
The self in the fourth dream may be able to move freely as promised and be liberated.
Until then, there are two things to do first.
First, go to Taimu Bank 600 years later, open your safe, take out the small note Chu Anqing left for you, and see what is written on it, so as to understand the truth of the dream.
Second, find a way to find CC, ask about her birth time and age, and then further clarify the relationship between her and Chu Anqing on the basis of confirming that she is a thousand-year-old.
"They are all relatively long-term plans."
Lin Xian murmured softly.
If only my dream could be extended even for one second...
As long as he can extend it for one second, he can see whether CC turns into blue stardust and disappears.
suddenly.
Lin Xian was stunned.
Slowly open your eyes.
Could it be...
My dream ended at such a coincidental time...
Is it just to prevent myself from seeing the moment when CC turned into blue stardust and disappeared?
I can't dwell on this kind of thing.
It’s just hard to convince people why so many events and so many coincidental times are all concentrated at 00:42?
The more I think about it, the less true it becomes, and the more I think about it, the more terrifying it becomes.
squeak----
The taxi brakes.
"Let's go, Lin Xian, we're at the hotel. Let's take a rest and then catch the flight back to Donghai."
Lin Xian nodded.
He and Gao Yang got off the car together, walked into the hotel, and entered the room.
…
Gao Yang ordered a bunch of takeaways and ate and drank everywhere.
Lin Xian took a hamburger and a Coke and sat on the coffee table and chair on the balcony to eat it. Then he was still in the same position, half lying on the back of the chair, holding the password diary in his hand, and kept pulling the password wheel, trying every password one by one.
After this period of hard work.
The password is at hand.
It also made him regret it several times... If he cracks other people's codebooks in the future, he must start from 0000 instead of going back from 9999.
It's really deceiving.
In my hand, the four-digit password wheel has reached 1979.
Lin Xian pressed the lock with his right thumb.
Click.
Not open.
The conditioned reflex is the same, and the thumb pushes the wheel upward.
The password becomes 1978.
Click.
It didn't open again.
"I suddenly remembered Lin Xian!"
In the room, Gao Yang stuffed a large piece of food in his mouth and turned around with his cheeks puffed up:
"Since the Millennium Pile will be driven every 24 years, it means that before Zhang Yuqian, there was another girl! There was another girl who looked exactly like Chu Anqing."
Click.
The password diary in Lin Xian's hand didn't open again:
"Isn't that obvious? Calculated, the last time the Millennium Pile was driven should be 1976."
Lin Xian lowered his head and found that the password of the diary password lock wheel in his hand just spelled out 1976.
He pressed the lock hard.
Click.
It still didn't open.
"Haha, let's see how long you can hide it."
Now Lin Xian couldn't help laughing. It's wrong, so what. There are less than 2,000 password combinations left. How long can the correct password be hidden? Even if you are 0000, you can only hide it 2,000 times at most.
I've survived such a long exhaustive cracking process, so what's so hard about the last thousand?
Lin Xian continued to look up.
He rubbed the combination wheel one by one and continued to try the combination.
Click.
Click.
Click.
Over there, Gao Yang and his friends wolfed down the food in their mouths, and finally swallowed the food in their mouths, and then picked up another food:
"Tell me, can we find out who the girl who looked like Chu Anqing who disappeared in 1976 was?"
"Absolutely not, don't even think about it."
Click.
Click.
Lin Xian continued to try the combination of the combination lock.
The number on it continued to get smaller.
1961,
1960,
1959,
…
"1976 is too long ago. You have to know that Longguo only started to implement the first generation of ID card system in 1984. Although it is a bit inappropriate to say this, the only thing that can prove a person's existence in that era is the rough household registration book, and there is no photo on it... So you definitely can't find Chu Anqing in 1976."
"Not to mention, you have to consider the possibility of being born abroad. This time it may be a coincidence that two consecutive thousand-year piles appeared in China. There are too few samples now, and it is not impossible that a thousand-year pile was born abroad."
Lin Xian thought of CC.
She said that she was born abroad, in Brooklyn, USA.
Click.
Click.
The password wheel in his hand continued to slide.
Gao Yang sighed and wiped his mouth with a tissue:
"So, when will this thousand-year pile end? Even if we really want to drive a thousand years of piles, there must be a beginning, there must be a first pile, right?"
"1976... 24 years before that... it was... 1952!"
1952?
Lin Xian blinked, this year was inexplicably familiar.
Isn't this...
the year when the realist painter Henry Dawson painted a portrait of Einstein in Brooklyn and created "Sad Einstein"?
Lowered his head.
On Zhang Yuqian's password-locked diary, the four combination wheels just formed the combination of 1952.
Lin Xian hesitated.
Pressed his thumb on it-
Click.
A crisp sound.
The diary combination lock that had been closed for 24 years...
opened with a sound!
