Interlude "After Shaking Hands with Noel (Part 1)"



"Later, people also mastered another rule. At 8 a.m., 12 p.m., and 6 p.m. in this world, food would fall from the sky. If someone continued to hit the edge of the world, food would also fall."

"Nonsense!" Blake couldn't help but say, "Do you think I haven't heard of the story of the 'turkey scientist' in The Three-Body Problem? The farmer fed the turkeys at noon every day, and the turkey scientists believed that 'food falls from the sky at noon every day' was a natural law. Until one day the farmer changed his work and rest habits and started feeding the turkeys at six in the evening, the turkeys' science collapsed, and the series of scientific laws they had studied for this purpose also vanished."

"So, it's just because there is a 'farmer' who is in a higher dimension above us and is feeding us, and the world we are in now is a turkey farm. That's why food is falling from the sky."

"As for what you said about food appearing when we hit the edge of the world, it's because the 'farmer' noticed the resistance of the 'turkeys' and gave us extra food in order to appease us. This is not a scientific law at all!"

"Oh, you are very knowledgeable." Su Jingtang said with a smile after listening.

"I may be rude, but I'm not stupid!" Blake glared.

"Well, I have a question I want to ask you." Su Jingtang narrowed his eyes.

"put!"

"Mr. Black." Su Jingtang smiled.

"——How can you be sure that the existing 'natural laws' on Zhai Xing——[the sun rises in the east and sets in the west], [the law of conservation of matter], [Newton's first law], [the second law of thermodynamics], [Fermat's law]...are not the result of intentional shaping by higher dimensions?"

Blake's eyes widened, his mouth trembled, but he couldn't say anything.

Su Jingtang said: "If I say that before humans appeared, Zhai Xing was [the sun and the moon in the same sky], rather than [rising in the east and setting in the west]. The sun was bright red, and the moon was dark blue. It should be [red sun and blue moon] rather than [red sun and white moon]. Do you think it is impossible?"

Blake's pupils trembled.

How is that impossible?

...Of course it's possible.

Although he said "sea-related line" and "coastline" lightly, as if he was just changing a save file in the game, in fact, every end represents a Poincare return of the universe. The life span of the universe is an astronomical number compared to humans and Su Mingan.

"Creation..." Su Mingan muttered slowly to himself.

The most striking example is Rowasha. Creators like Olivers are actually equivalent to "farmers" who have changed the rules of science, turning colds into cancer and cancer into colds. As long as enough time passes, people will only remember that colds are cancers, and this is the truth.

So, since the sea-related lines and shore-guarding lines have been cycled through so many times... and since so much time has passed... how much has changed since the beginning?

"——If I say that a long time ago, Zhai Xing has always had the sun and the moon in the same sky, and it has always been the red sun and the blue moon, and even that there was an Olives in his ancestors, would you believe it?" Su Jingtang crossed his arms and smiled slightly:

"If I say that Su Mingan was the organizer a long time ago, would you believe it?"

"If I say that Boss Rabbit is actually Zhai Xing's world consciousness, would you believe it?"

"Do you believe it?"

"You don't believe it?"

Su Ming'an felt his sleeve being tightly grasped. Ying Su lowered his head, his eyes fixed on the ground.

"I..." Blake opened his mouth.

"——Of course, none of this matters." Hui Bai suddenly appeared.

He stood in front of Blake and said to Su Jingtang: "No matter what happened in the past, what does it matter? What's the point of worrying about how much has been edited in the past?"

"That's right. Only a fool would dwell on the past." Su Jingtang smiled slightly: "But the premise is... we are not threatened."

"What do you mean?" Hui Bai raised his eyebrows.

"Right now, there are some 'farmers' right above our heads." Su Jingtang pointed to the sky: "Everything we stand on is based on the limited knowledge of those people. Once their ideas change, everything we stand on will be in vain."

"The most terrifying thing is that our thousands of years of history, people, past, society, order, and future... are all built on the limited knowledge of those people. Once they lack a certain common sense, we will also lack this common sense."

"For example, once they have the idea in their heads that 'strawberries grow on the ground', then strawberries grow on the ground from now on, and there is no longer a concept like 'strawberry tree'."

"But common sense from ancient times to the present day tells us that even a six-year-old child knows that strawberries grow on trees."

Hearing this, Su Mingan was suddenly confused for a moment and frowned.

Do strawberries grow on the ground or on trees?

It seems to be...growing on a tree.

Yes, it has always grown on trees. In the ruins world before, Bei Lisel planted many strawberry trees for Asa.

[No matter how many strawberry trees North Lissel planted, no matter how long he waited, he would never get there again.]

[——The 773rd Drama Memory Lens: "Lü Shu, Asa"]

Could it be that... this natural law has been altered long ago?

"But - God!" Su Jingtang opened his arms, tilted his neck, and laughed in the wind and snow:

"If all the fixed laws of science have been obliterated, if everything we understand is based only on someone's common sense and worldview."

"If they only wanted, our destiny would be changed."

"So."

He turned back and slowly looked at you.

"you say."

"—shouldn't we kill 'em'?"

"boom--!!"

Suddenly, the sky turned pure white.

Something white and square pressed down against the vine.

When Su Jingtang touched that thing, his body suddenly shattered and turned into flying snow. Then came Blake, who then pressed back...

When Su Mingan opened his eyes again, he was standing in the library, with Yingsu standing beside him. Blake and Su Jingtang were chatting.

...The game has been rolled back.

It wasn't their own death replay, it should be Yingsu's death replay. The white thing that suddenly appeared killed them and caused the death replay.

Su Mingan frowned, but a voice came from the side:

"Noel, Su Mingan."

It's Huibai.

The blond young man stood in the darkness, looking at them.
