Human Shackles

"Are you the owner of this inn? Can you predict my arrival?" Luo Kai continued to ask.

Ye Tong smiled bitterly and said: "I'm just an agent. I have evolved a spirit-binding ability that can control incorporeal life. They call me a spirit-binder."

"Spirit Binder?"

"Well, the Soul Binder translates the material world and the dark world. Without the Soul Binder, it would be difficult for two completely different life forms to communicate. Of course, for a life form of your level, there is no communication barrier in all realms of the universe. .

As for the ability to predict, I have no ability. Just over an hour ago, I received an oracle from the dark world, ordering me to explain to you the threat of the ancient evil gods to the dark world and win your support. "

Luo Kai's eyes were slightly shining. For him, lies had long lost their effect. This woman did not lie at all, and she even had no problem with her memory.

He has met Xiaoxue and Su Xiaomei, two people with super strong ability to sense the future. Now that they have four-dimensional cognition, they have an essential understanding of it. This kind of person with strong innate ability to predict is because of the four-dimensional knowledge. The timeline is relatively sensitive, and it is possible to break into the timeline and see the future, but there are countless timelines in the timeline, and it is difficult to say where it will develop.

It seems that there are creatures in the unknown dark world that are sensitive to the four-dimensional timeline.

The most essential difference between four dimensions and three dimensions is the existence of a timeline.

In human common sense, time is just a tool to record the movement patterns of the sun, moon and stars. It is just a concept and has no real meaning.

But in fact, time is not a concept, but an energy attribute of actual existence. Currently, it is known that there are two existences that can affect time, one is mass and the other is speed.

For example, the time on the earth is not synchronized with the time in space. Atomic clocks in space are slower than those on the earth. This is because of the mass of the earth itself. High-quality matter will slow down the speed of time. Just like the downstream of a river, the greater the mass. The greater the resistance to time.

Speed ​​also affects the change of time. When things reach or exceed the speed of light, time will stop or even go backwards.

When the individual's movement speed exceeds the propagation speed of light, the individual will feel that other people or things are stationary, because the individual is too fast and others are too slow relative to you.

One day in the sky is one year on the earth, because compared to the earth, the expansion rate of the universe is so slow that it is almost stationary.

This is also the basis for the influence of mental power on time. In the material world, nothing can break the speed of light, with the exception of the void spirit. The spirit is a derivative of the soul and a non-material existence.

The two types of existence that affect time slow down time or stop time, and cannot accelerate the flow of time. In other words, the impact of individual life on time is limited to the present, and may also be in the past.

While Luo Kai was deep in thought, he asked, "Then do you want to continue being an agent, or do you want to return to human society?"

Ye Tong hesitated and said: "I want to send my family out."

Luo Kai understood what she meant and said, "Okay, now you can take me to the Dark World to have a look."

"The dark world has not yet opened. There is only a realm of chaos that interfaces with the material world."

Luo Kai thought for a moment and said, "Take me to see it."

"Okay, please follow me." Ye Tong stood up, opened the door, and led the way.

The two walked to the back of the inn. Deep in the empty underground space, there was a large fog lingering. It was somewhat similar to the mist. It was a space force that went wrong and fell into chaos.

"Mr. Luo, I am made of flesh and blood. Once I enter the intersection of the positive and negative worlds, I will be corrupted by dark energy and cannot follow you in."

"Yes." Luo Kai nodded and gently drifted into the mist.

The fog could not obscure his perception. After crossing an objectless zone, under the bright moon, a large bare mountain range appeared in front of him.

There is no need to wonder why he came to this unknown territory from deep underground, because the space is in a state of chaos, and he cannot feel the majestic pulse of the earth, which means that this place may not be the earth anymore.

He walked slowly to a steep mountain stream and was about to find a way down when he felt someone's presence on the mountain not far away. He hesitated and looked for it with some confusion.

There are also plants among the mountain peaks, and the paths between the trees seem to contain a magical pattern. If Luo Kai had been there before, he might not have been able to find a way in in a short time, but now from the holographic perspective in the soul state, everything is transparent.

Not long after, a small yard appeared halfway up the mountain. The yard was surrounded by peach trees. The strange thing was that these peach trees were still in bloom.

The pair of pear wood gates in the yard were already mottled, and all the red paint had peeled off. The dilapidated fence was also covered with weeds and moss, making it look very dilapidated.

Feeling that there was a human scent in the yard, but the scent was very strange, Luo Kai pondered for a moment, and with a wave of his hand, the soil on the ground quickly condensed into a human-shaped clay doll, complete with nose, eyebrows, and facial features, and quickly gave birth to vitality and color, with Real people are no different.

His soul slowly blended in, and then he walked forward and knocked on the door gently.

The sound of "bang bang bang" spread out, which seemed very abrupt in the dark and silent night.

After a long time, a burst of light footsteps came.

"Here we come." A clear and sweet voice sounded from inside the door.

With a creaking sound, the old and mottled door slowly opened. A girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old poked her head out from the crack in the door, looked at Luo Kai, and asked doubtfully: "Who are you looking for?"

Although the aura of the girl in front of her was a bit cold, she was clearly a human being, but this world was not like the earth.

Luo Kai suppressed the doubts in his heart and said: "Well... I lost my way in the mountains. I want to ask where this is?"

The girl looked at him suspiciously for a long time and said, "This is the Peach Garden. You...you can find the way down during the day."

After he hesitated for a moment, he sighed and said: "It's a little dangerous outside at night, alas! You should come in first."

Feeling the situation inside, Luo Kai followed the girl and walked in. Although the outside of the courtyard looked a bit dilapidated, the inside was extremely elegant, with small bridges and flowing water, pavilions and pavilions, which made people feel as if they had arrived in ancient times.

The girl led Luo Kai through a garden, then walked through a corridor, and came to an antique hall.

"We don't accept outsiders here, but...it's a little late now, so I'll let you stay for one night and I'll get you some food. You wait here and don't trespass."

After a while, the girl was holding a large porcelain bowl, which turned out to be fragrant rice porridge.

Luo Kaixin was even more surprised, because the rice was extremely ordinary, not like the earth after the cataclysm, and the flowers, plants and trees in the yard showed no tendency to mutate and evolve.

He came in because he thought there was something weird here, and now he felt a little embarrassed when he saw the girl was so enthusiastic and obviously human.

"No, I'm leaving now."

The girl said angrily: "Since I let you in, I'm just letting you stay for one night, what's the point of being embarrassed!"

Luo Kai smiled and finished the porridge in one gulp.

The girl took the bowl away and said before leaving: "You should go to bed quickly. Remember not to leave this door. You should leave as soon as tomorrow morning."

Luo Kai nodded and said, "Miss, what is your name?"

The girl rolled her eyes at him, turned around and left without answering.

Luo Kai looked at the brocade quilt on the bed. This kind of quilt didn't look like something used by modern people, and all the appliances in the room had an ancient charm.

Since he promised not to go out and wander around, he didn't go out. He slowly closed his eyes and started exploring the yard with his huge mind. In addition to the girl, there was an old woman with a cold breath.

This place is located in the wilderness, but there is no sign of being invaded by ferocious beasts. Neither the girl nor the old woman are ordinary people. It seems that this is where they live in seclusion.

His thoughts began to penetrate underground, but unfortunately he could not feel the familiar pulse of Mother Earth.
