"What did you say? Are you dying? " Wang Bing was shocked. How could a person with endless life span die?
"Yes
"How could you die? We are not... "
"Isn't there an endless life span?" Wang Bing of the future showed a bitter smile. "I thought so, but I didn't know it was not like this until I first went to the temple of time and space and met the self styled future me."
After a pause, the future Wang Bing added: "you must remember what I'm going to say next, because that will probably change your future, or all our future!"
He looked very serious, not joking.
"I die because someone wants to kill me!" He said.
"Who's going to kill you?" This is even more surprising to Wang Bing. He has mastered the "rules of time and space". Is there anyone in the world who can kill himself?
"I don't know!" Wang Bing of the future shook his head.
"What do you mean you don't know?"
"I don't know. When I saw my future self like you, my future self said the same thing to me and asked the same question, but there was no answer to this question. What he told me at that time was that someone wanted to kill him!"
So is this a dead proposition?
If you don't know who will kill you, you don't even know how you will die.
"Normally, people like us will not die, but this is not the case. At that time, I watched my future self die in front of me. It was in this place. To be exact, after I finished what I should say with you in a moment!"
"You mean..."
"Yes, I'll die when I finish talking to you!"
What should Wang Bing say?
Why do you die when you finish speaking?
"Then I will be like you in the future?" Wang Bing asked.
"That's right!" The future Wang Bing nodded, "this is our sad fate, which can't be changed. The reason why I find you and create so many troubles for you is to change this damned fate!"
He told Wang Bing the reason why he came to the past. After hearing this, Wang Bing was unable to speak for a long time. According to his own words in the future, he came to give Wang Bing a "task", which is to solve the mystery of his being killed.
Who is going to kill himself? How did you die?
They need to find out, and this "they" refers to Wang Bing in countless "time lines", including Wang Bing now, Wang Bing in the future, Wang Bing in the future
Every Wang Bing is shouldering such a mission. If they can't solve this mystery, they will eventually die in the "Temple of time and space". Therefore, the future Wang Bing will die, and the present Wang Bing will also die in the future. That's why the future Wang Bing says that his present is the future of Wang Bing.
"My number is 10085!" Wang Bing of the future said.
"Number? What's that? "
"It's our number on each timeline. You are one more than me, and you are one more than you, and so on. So your number is" 10086 ". When you see you later, you should tell him your number, and let him tell the next one about it, and pass it on one by one until someone can complete the task!"
"You mean, before you, 10084 I died?"
"Yes, so this number is passed down one by one by our word of mouth!"
After listening to this, Wang Bing had mixed feelings in his heart. No one thought that his future would be like this.
So he himself has been fighting for immortality. The previous 10084 of them died, and now it's his turn.
"It's hard to know when we are going to die, but this is our life. Unless we can change our life against the weather, this kind of life will last forever!"
"But why don't you go back so you don't have to die?"
"I used to think that way, but you seem to forget one thing. There is one us in every time line. Even if I use time to go back to the past, I will not disappear because of me. He still exists in his time and space, just as I am to you, I come from the future. Now I am equal to running to your time and space, and will not disappear because of my arrival You will disappear. Unless I kill you, you will one day go back to the past like me, and then enter the dead circle again. But I certainly can't do anything to you, so the only way is to try to complete the "task" and find out the real reason, just like the 10000 others before me
No wonder this guy has a chance to kill Wang Bing easily every time he appears, but he doesn't do that because he can't kill himself. Who can do it?
"What am I going to do?" Wang Bing asked the question in his heart.
"To be honest, I don't know. I went back to the past to see you in the hope of gaining something in the process. But now it seems that I have done so many things and nothing has changed. You still experience the same things as me, and you still come here in the end!After a pause, he added: "the reason why I have helped you again and again is that I hope I can help you understand the 'rules of time and space' as soon as possible. Maybe there is more powerful power on top of the 'rules of time and space'..."
"Stronger power? Is that possible? "
"I don't know if it's possible, but we can't give up as long as there's a glimmer of hope. Even if it's not for you, we'll do that for countless people in the future!"
"I know!"
So it's not just Wang Bing's business, it's a matter of his life and death in countless time lines.
"What's that ball?" Wang Bing pointed to the luminous sphere suspended in mid air.
"You don't know yet?"
"I don't know!"
"That's you No, to be exact, it's the space we live in, or the world we live in! "
"Our world?"
"Yes, the earth, the upper world, the firmament and the nightmare world are all in it, and our families are all in it, and you come out of it!" Wang Bing of the future said.
"This is the world we live in!"
"I was just like you when I first came out!"
"And how did this temple come from?" Wang Bing asked.
"I also want to know that I have been to this place many times, but there is no one here, eh..." While talking, Wang Bing of the future suddenly showed a painful expression and fell to his knees.
"What's the matter?" Wang Bing was surprised.
"Remember what I just told you I don't want to die all the time! "
Then he fell to the ground with black eyes.
