Chapter 576 Ah Sang’s Problem (III)
“In a sense, I did it...”
A Sang was silent for a long time, and then said in a solemn tone: “Although it has happened before Guess, but I was not completely sure until just now that I can indeed have an impact on the future to a certain extent. Of course, there are huge limitations."
Mo Tan. Nodding slightly, he asked softly: "If I guessed correctly, after we opened this book for the first time, you should have done something to the first page, right?"
Ji Xiao Ge looked at Mo Tan, then turned around and looked around, where strictly speaking there was no third person. He did not interrupt, but just hugged the back of the chair with interest and continued to listen to the two chatting, quietly and well-behaved. ...it looks pretty good.
"It's okay, buddy, I've made you guess all this."
A Sang smacked his lips, with unconcealed surprise in his words, and affirmed: "That's right, in fact, it's not just your first After opening this book once, even the line of Hakuna Matata on the title page was added by me 'just now', and after you opened it for the first time, I tore it up in the 'past' "It fell."
Mo Tan frowned and said thoughtfully: "In other words, before we opened the book for the first time, the line on the title page still did not exist, but after that, Even though you tore it off in the 'past', that page has not disappeared from the 'present'..."
"That's right"
A Sang's tone also became serious. , said in a deep voice: "However, after I tore off the page, you saw the newly painted Pikachu on the back. Do you two know what this means?"
Mo Tan nodded slightly, then glanced at the girl beside him who didn't seem confused.
“I’m following my thoughts closely~”
Ji Xiaoge smiled playfully, then stroked his smooth cheek and concluded: “First of all, what is certain is that Ah Sang It is true that the 'future' can be changed to a certain extent, at least the future in the ninth or ninth year of the Holy Calendar, otherwise no matter what Whether it’s the proverb on the title page or the Pikachu at the back, we can’t see it, because just ten minutes ago, the content of this book was different from what it is now.”
She didn't continue talking, but just gave Mo Tan a look, which could be summarized as 'you can tell me later'.
“Secondly, this change has many restrictions, and it can only succeed if relevant conditions are met.”
Mo Tan immediately understood and continued to analyze: "Judging from the information we two know now, at least the fact that it has been clearly observed in the 'future' cannot be changed. Just like the title page just now, Ye Ge and I have already seen After reaching that sentence, even if you tear off the page again in the past, Ah Sang, the page will not disappear again. Although it is in the game, I still think this is a way to avoid time paradox... uh... ...Adjustment."
"Or correction."
A Zang, who was in the past, nodded, trying to suppress his excitement, and said quickly: "You guys. The speculation is very accurate. According to my research, the core of changing the future lies in 'cognition'. For example, the creatures in the normal timeline are equal to the people outside the box, and the unlucky cat that Schrödinger and I raised is in the box. Stay here, assuming that you know the fact that the cat in the box is still alive by any means, then even if I used the forbidden spell to blow it to ashes in the past, the process and results will be forcibly corrected by some kind of force. Let the cat still live, but..."
A Sang took a deep breath, controlled his extremely excited heart, and his trembling hands, and prepared for the future of the two. The person 'left a voice' saying: "If no one outside the box observes the cat's life state, then no matter I kill the cat, feed it, or turn it into a cow, as long as this result does not conflict with other 'established facts' If an interaction occurs, for example, the cat I turned into a cow killed a big man twenty years in advance who could have lived to be two hundred years old, then it is possible to change the future and let the contents of that box be revealed as the result of my guidance. ”
“Well, it feels pretty awesome!”
Ji Xiaoge hugged the back of the chair enthusiastically, shaking his body slightly while exclaiming: "Take the history book to change the future in the past, aren't you able to do whatever you want, Ah Sang!"
Mo next to him Tan shook his head and said in deep thought: "No, in my opinion, the restrictions that Ah Sang just mentioned are actually very harsh, not to mention that he cannot violate the 'established facts', even if he wants to make any changes, There is also a very high possibility of being submerged in the long river of time. After all, the concept of 'time' is not something that ordinary people can control."
"Mo is right."
Ah Sang gave a bitter laugh and said helplessly: "Just like the history book you just mentioned, Ye Ge, in fact, the content recorded in the "General History of the Mainland" in my hand is basically a list of things that have absolutely no chance of being affected by me. , I have confirmed this before."
Mo Tan was slightly stunned and said in confusion: "You have confirmed it? That means you have already known that you can have an influence on the future? The experiment is..."
"The experiment just now allowed me to know whether what I affected was 'reality', which is of great significance."
A Sang tapped the armrest lightly while pouring pure magic power into the magic pool. He smiled and said: "You are right. I have known that my actions in the past can affect the future. Well, I knew it by chance. I lived in the Southwest Continent nearly two months ago. I worked on a small farm for a few days and helped the farmer drive away a few groups of wild animals. At that time, the farmer's wife just happened to have a baby. The couple thanked me very much and asked me to give the baby a name. We didn't do it either. It was so easy to shirk the blame, so I just casually mentioned Gandalf..."
Ji Xiaoge couldn't help but laugh and said: "In the end, that kid turned into a powerful mage and slayed a dragon? "< br>
“That’s not true, but about half a month after that, I, who was thrown away several times by the pseudo-empty time flow, appeared thirty years after I named the child, because I didn’t have it at that time. What do you want to do? After I determined the time, I came up with an idea and ran all the way from the northern border of the Griffin Dynasty to that small place. Guess what?”
The past A Sang shrugged. , made a funny expression, and sighed: "The child has inherited his family's farm, and his name is Gandalf, and his parents can still recognize me."
What happened next was simple. At that time, Ah Sang immediately realized that there was a problem, and after many attempts, he found that he could indeed affect the 'future' to a certain extent, so he launched a series of research on this.
"The conclusion is what I just said."
He stared at the two people in the light curtain in front of him and said in a deep voice: "The act of naming ordinary children from ordinary families It will affect the future, but if I take the initiative to influence some events that are "established facts" in history, such as trying to remind the Dragon Clan back then to beware of the Sun Dynasty, it will definitely be corrected in various ways, such as If you say that I, who is now located 1,750 years ago, will remind the Dragon King and tell them, "Be careful, you will be killed by the Sun Dynasty", the pride of the dragon will eventually become At the end of the Dragon Clan, the Dragon Clan, which was defeated after only persisting for seventeen days, would never be able to persist until the eighteenth day. Perhaps it was because my warning was ignored, or perhaps because although the Dragon Clan was on guard, the Sun Dynasty sent two more A group army, maybe it was because the Dragon King was hit on the head by a big stone and suffered amnesia, or more likely the influence of 'I' was directly erased by some kind of force. In short, the Dragon Clan must be defeated on the seventeenth day, and the facts cannot be changed. "Ji Xiaoge wrinkled his nose and murmured: "Then what do you mean by 'reality'?"
"It means literally."
Ah Sang sighed and smiled bitterly: "Although Teacher Long is a high-level observer of Tianzhu Mountain, and Tianzhu Mountain is the organization that knows the most secrets in the world, what happened to me is still unprecedented, so even if Despite all my efforts in research, Teacher Lu can still only make suggestions based on my current situation. Several hypotheses, the most reliable of which is that I was thrown into a timeline that does not exist in reality, an existence similar to a snapshot of time, like a long documentary, although I can control it at will. Jump horizontally, and even affect it in a 'clipping' way, but Ji After all, the video is just a documentary, not the real history of this world. Maybe I can fine-tune the video, but it will never affect reality. For example... well, it's like I copied my homework and wrote "The Destruction of the Qin Dynasty" It was copied from 207 BC to 208 BC, but that It only exists in my homework book and will not really cause the Qin Dynasty to be destroyed a year early. Do you understand? "
Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge's understanding ability is pretty good, plus Shang A Sang's description is more vivid, so there is no way he can't understand it, and the former is even thinking about it briefly. Then he said softly: "But just now, you discovered that the hypothesis you conceived was actually wrong."
"That's right, just now."
A Sang said with a solemn expression. Zi Zi held the thick "General History of the Continent" in her hands and said in a deep voice: "You are the same as me. You are players. You have the only real trait in countless timelines. Mo even discussed my problem with the teacher in Tianzhu Mountain. Obviously, if there is a line in the Innocence Realm that is absolutely real in all senses, Timeline, it must be the two of you, Xiaolu and everyone else except me There is a time that the player is in. However, just now, I have successfully interacted with you through a book written more than 1,700 years ago. You have seen the Hakuna Matata I wrote. You have seen it. The Pikachu I drew means... phew... means the history I have experienced. , not a false if or fan route, but a real history, a real reality!”
Both Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge were suffocated subconsciously, and the latter even seemed to be doing it! Witness the epic carefulness of asking: "And then?"
"Ah? There is no more."
As a result, Ah Sang's voice suddenly relaxed and said lightly: "Anyway, this is the situation, this is what happened, what should I do next? Just study whatever you want."
"Uh..."
Ji Xiaoge choked on the spot.
“Haha, to put it bluntly, I just put two ideas into practice, so that I can avoid taking some detours in the future.”
Ah Sang, who was leaning in front of the fireplace, smiled and said helplessly: "Knowing the truth may not change my situation, and there are still many unknown mysteries that have not been solved, such as the butterfly effect and other things that can easily cause time paradoxes. Why haven't the possibilities been eliminated, such as the true face and specific mechanism of pseudo-empty time flow? Anyway, I have long been prepared for a protracted war, but now it will definitely be a lot more enjoyable. At least I and you are still playing the same game. , At least I'm not living in a dream."
Mo Tan also smiled and nodded, and said sincerely: "Come on, if there is anything you can do to help, you can contact us at any time through Lu Jiang, or we can. Contact outside the game is also possible."
Then the three stopped discussing the issue of 'time', and A Sang also exchanged contact information outside the game with Mo Tan, as if he planned to contact him at any time. It's like communicating with each other.
They chatted for a long time in this small workshop across the time span of 1,750 years. Most of the time, Ah Sang was talking and Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge were listening.
It is not difficult to see that this man who was forced to play stand-alone soon after the server was launched is really a bit lonely. Although he is no different from everyone else in the real world, he starts to stand-alone as soon as he enters the game every day. Having no friends or similar people, just running around in the long river of time day after day still makes Ah Sang quite depressed, so this time I finally met two of my "own friends" in the game. After I started chatting, That's called being poor.
Mo Tan and Ji Xiaoge were also happy to chat with him. On the one hand, they could feel each other's depression to some extent. On the other hand, the stories A Sang told were very interesting. For example, the famous XX in history actually had Although XX quirks were not a history they were familiar with, the two of them still listened to them with interest.

Innocent Boundary System Standard Time PM19:39
“Huha~ Thank you for staying with me for so long. I’m almost bored these days. The disease is here."
A Sang breathed a sigh of relief, put down the glorious "Iron Mane Book" in his hand, and said to the two people on the screen: "Ye. Ge, as long as you wait until the beacon ends to cool down and leave this [Time Tower] before using it, you should be able to return to Tianzhu Mountain. As for Mo... I can try to adjust the teleportation circle in the workshop here. But since you have already used it in the 'future', it's probably going to be tough enough to send you back to Diesel's house, so you may have to walk back... I'm sorry."
"If anything, it's not your fault in the first place."
Mo Tan shook his head and smiled: "And my trip was well worth it. You helped me finish it in one breath. There are several tasks.”
“What task?”
A Sang and Ji Xiaoge asked in unison.
So Mo Tan briefly talked about the chain of tasks he had completed before.
"Uh... that is to say, the trap I left accidentally destroyed an important clue for your sixth link."
A Zang scratched his hair guiltily, and then suddenly a vision appeared in front of his eyes. Liang...
"Wait! If you are looking for the Dragon King's tomb, I may have a way!"
