Xie Zhi's mood was adjusted by Qilu's poor mouth, and his mood was not so bad, and what the little guy said made sense.

Xie Zhi smiled: "Okay, your brain is quite active, did you see something again?"

"No, I saw it before, but I didn't understand the situation at that time, it was inexplicable, and now I probably have counted it..."

Qilu paused, and said mysteriously: "Uncle Shi, I'm a child, a junior, I guess you won't listen to the words of enlightenment, and someone will persuade you later.

Believe me, don't ask who it is, what if something goes wrong and doesn't happen?

When the time comes, you can just talk to them, and you will have a clear idea.

Don't worry, uncle, you ~ bold ~ go forward, don't turn your head back... Oh, don't start your head! "

"Molesting Uncle Master! If it's against you, pay it back!"

"Uncle, it's not dancing. Singing is a tradition in our sect. I learned it from you and my senior sister."

"Come on, I didn't see Anakin sing."

"You don't know, the younger brother is a sullen type, and he will sing "High Song" when he is in the pit."

Xie Zhi's eyes widened: "Damn it! He's not afraid of prolapse!? What the **** are you getting!"

"We are not a thing, no, we are a thing, or it is not right..."

"Okay, enough nonsense, ready to act."

After getting up, Xie Zhi looked at R2 again: "Little fat man, I give you three choices, either participate in the operation, but I will delete your memory about this operation afterward..."

R2: "Whoa..."

"Don't be cute, the matter is important, and secrecy is a must!

The second option, I will be troubled again, and I will use the law of causality..."

R2: "Oh diazine!"

"Hehe, I didn't even mention the third option. R2, you're starting to get on the road. Come on, let's go to the first option."

The two got out of the spaceship with R2, and Xie Zhi shrunk the spaceship away.

Then a time machine was released in the void, a one-time self-destructing type.

But it is not physically manufactured, it is manifested by Xie Zhi with the energy of will, mainly because this thing belongs to the strictly controlled equipment at home, and each set has a record.

And Xie Zhi, since he has been thinking about it for a long time, he is ready for it. After all, he still has the highest authority in Laifu, and secretly developed an accomplice. Of course, Qilu has to be added now.

So after all the parts and equipment are figured out, it's no problem to have a complete set of equipment, that is to say, there are as many time machines as you need.

And Xie Zhi's behavior is typical of unorganized and undisciplined, so it's no wonder that he has repeatedly emphasized confidentiality.

Strictly recorded the time and coordinates, especially the time, Xie Zhi even double-checked redundantly, he dared not make any mistakes during this process.

The time machine was activated, and they disappeared.

…

When they reappeared, they were still on the edge of the boundless Milky Way.

Qilu turned his head in excitement, looked around and said: "Wow, uncle, this is a time leap? It doesn't feel like it."

"What kind of feeling can I have? There is no reference for this."

R2's robotic arm popped out suddenly, pointed at the Milky Way and said, "Hey."

"That's right, looking at the star map is your strong point, but it can be used as a reference... huh?"

Xie Zhi's eyes were suddenly in a trance, followed by frowning, his face was not very good-looking.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, if you come here, let's be safe, first look for information and then talk." As he said, Xie Zhi secretly said: "Why is this happening? It's different from what I expected, the discrepancy is too big..."

After releasing the spaceship again, they jumped all the way and rushed to the nearest civilized star field.

At this time, the hard currency that Xie Zhi wanted came in handy, nothing else, I went to an information dealer to buy information.

A little investigation is too time-consuming, Xie Zhi and the others can delay it, the problem is, just after arriving in the future, Xie Zhi found that the situation exceeded expectations...

So he chose to collect information as quickly as possible, and after consulting it, he became more and more confused.

"Uncle, don't think about it alone, I can help too, um, maybe I can."

Xie Zhi looked at Qilu, his expression became much gentler: "Uncle Master didn't intend to hide it from you, but Uncle Master actually...has something in his heart, but we still need some evidence, so...we still have to travel through time."

"ah?"

"Let's go to the ground and talk about it."

After another toss, I went to the future of the future.

However, during the first time travel, Xie Zhi set the time two years later, but for the second time, he chose one year later.

After that, the process is still the same, buy information, and then travel again.

The third time, the time was set half a year later.

Then came the fourth, and three months later, the fifth shortened again...

It seems that Xie Zhi has not found the evidence he needs until after more than 30 time travels, that is, the seventh year since the past, Xie Zhi's frowning brows loosened.

"Uncle, are you sure this time?"

Xie Zhi smiled: "Your boy feels really good, that's right, I'm sure."

"But uncle, you haven't bought the information yet, how can you be sure?"

"It's very simple." Xie Zhi tapped the Tai Chi ring: "In the past dozens of time travels, the Tai Chi rings of your fourth uncle and I can't sense at all, including Padmé's green light ring."

Chirrut's eyes widened suddenly: "How is it possible!? Unless the ring disappears!"

Xie Zhi shook his head: "No, it's not that the ring disappeared, but that it didn't exist at all.

Then the information I bought mainly was about the past, guess what I found? Your brother, Anakin. "

"What? Anakin!? Could it be that Master and the others have traveled here? This is even more impossible!"

"It is indeed impossible, this Anakin is not our Anakin, he has another identity, he is... a Jedi Knight.

And his master is from the Jedi Order... Obi-Wan is also an acquaintance. You have seen the apprentice who was beaten by Wu Neng back then.

And Padmé, she didn't form the Sickle and Hammer Party at all. After her term ended, she became a Senator of the Republic representing Naboo.

What's more, in the Naboo Star Battle back then, your master and I didn't participate at all, and we... never appeared. "

Chilu blinked and blinked: "No wonder..."

"Why didn't you say it? What did you see?"

"Uncle, I'm really afraid that unexpected events will affect your understanding of thoughts, so let's let nature take its course."

Xie Zhi didn't ask, nothing else, he didn't say some things, in fact, after the first time travelling, he also saw some pictures...

Following Qilu, he said again: "By the way, Uncle, can you sense Uncle Fourth's Tai Chi ring this time?"

"Yes, and Padmé's green light ring."

"Oh, but since there is no trace of us in the place we went before, and the history is completely different, doesn't it mean that we have gone to another parallel universe? What's going on?"

"Time and space deviate from what I expected, but with these evidences, I judge that it should be like this..."

The green light of the Tai Chi ring emerged, and a pile of neatly arranged green plates appeared in the space, which was actually a pile of huge dominoes.

Xie Zhi pointed to the first domino and said, "The first domino is the time when we set off, and the seventh is the present moment seven years later.

When the pile of dominoes falls, the dominoes in front will continue to be pushed down, which can be understood as the advancement of history, and can also refer to the influence of the butterfly effect.

However, before the seventh domino is pushed, anything that happened in the past will not affect the seventh future domino, because the wave has not rushed yet.

This was my original hypothesis about traveling through the future, and now it can be proved that it is true.

So you can rest assured at the moment, no matter what happened in the past, as long as the historical domino has not touched the domino we are in, it will not affect us.

But the problem is..."

Xie Zhi waved his hand, and some dominoes appeared again, but they extended backward from the first one.

"Now deduce it backwards, when we first came to this world, we were extra dominoes..."

With the voice, a yellow plate was added to the entire row of dominoes.

"In the past, I thought that the new domino jumping in the queue would just overwrite the previous queue..."

The yellow color began to spread forward in the queue, and one side of the bone plate turned from green to yellow.

"But it's more than that. In fact, we have experienced it in the Terminator world before, but I didn't understand much at that time, and I didn't think too much. After all, it was quite brain-burning.

Well, there was no you at that time, simply put, the truth is this..."

The voice stops, the yellow backs up, and the queue returns to green until the yellow card is cut.

Immediately afterwards, from there came a new yellow card, but turned a corner and formed a forking queue.

Chirudao: "The flow of time has branched!"

"Yes, the area we are in is in the yellow queue, but the green queue has not disappeared or been covered, but continues to move forward."

"But what we have crossed is time, why did we end up in another branch?"

Xie Zhi spread his hands: "I guess, it's because the time positioning and space coordinates are exactly the same in the two worlds, there is no difference in this point.

So after a time span, it may not necessarily go to which side, it depends on luck, or factors we don't know yet.

Presumably, it was unknown factors that led to more than 30 consecutive crossings before we returned to the queue of yellow dominoes.

And regarding the phenomenon that the more than 30 time travels are only correct once, I guess the unknown factor is only aimed at traveling to the future, and there will be no such situation when going back to the past, because the shape of the shunt is like a tree, returning to the past , can only go to the trunk, so it is naturally easy to align.

I know what you want to ask, why did we enter the diverted time stream when we traveled across borders?

I can be sure of the reason for this, your uncle, I am the implementer of the time travel after all, although the worlds I go to are random every time, but in fact, when I enter the same world many times, I feel a little bit.

There is a kind of... How should I put it, it is like the attraction of magnetic poles, or like a positioning device, in short, it is guiding us to travel to the world that has been diverted.

Got it? "

"I understand part of it, but there are still some things I don't understand. Master, the timeline world we are in now, if we do something, will it be diverted, or...overwritten?"

Xie Zhi was silent for a while, and sighed: "It's all possible, we had an enemy before, and although the old man was a bastard, he is indeed an expert in playing with time, and what he said still makes sense.

What he said is that the time diversion will only appear at key nodes, and the key to ending the diversion is also at those important nodes. We also analyzed these in the past, and it was precisely the way of destroying important nodes that cut everything off.

And Gu Yi sorted out countless timelines, and chose the most optimal one, which also proved that important nodes do exist.

As for when is the key, I think it should be the decisive factor affecting the historical process... Well, perhaps changing the original fate of Naboo was a major impact, which led to the divergence of the timeline.

If the change is not a key factor, the resulting butterfly effect may not cause diversion, but cover or erase the original future.

Are there any questions? "

"Gone."

"Then do the right thing."

After boarding the spaceship, he was not in a hurry to leave this place.

Xie Zhi stroked the Tai Chi ring, hesitating a little.

"Uncle, how about I avoid it?"

"No need." Xie Zhi sighed and started the communication.

But Xie Zhi opened his mouth, and it was difficult to say hello.

Two seconds later, Steve's voice came from the opposite side: "You finally appeared."

"Uh... bro..."

Steve interrupted: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm very busy now! I'll give you the coordinates to meet at the place, TK187..."

After following Steve, he hung up the communication, Xie Zhi smiled wryly: "It seems... I'm quite angry."

According to the given coordinates, gallop all the way away.

It was only after the third transition that a space war happened to happen. The two warring parties were two fleets, and the fight was very lively.

Moreover, after the two parties discovered Xie Zhi's spaceship, they both sent clear-code communications, asking him to identify himself.

And separated some fighters from the battlefield, and rushed towards Xie Zhi.

Xie Zhi was not in the mood to join in the fun, so he directly chose to continue the leap, but this brief encounter also made him understand that he is now at war.

According to the plot of the Star Wars trilogy, perhaps this is the war that determines Palpatine to become the Emperor of the Galaxy, and it can also be said that the destruction of the Galactic Republic has begun.

After rushing to the destination, it was discovered that it was a black planet.

But the surface is extremely desolate, with jagged rocks, acid gas still rising in the star-studded crypts, and no vegetation or living things can be seen. Obviously, this is not a suitable place to live.

After Xie Zhi waited for about half an hour, a white-painted pie-shaped spaceship flew in the sky, but it was not purely circular. There were two triangular protrusions protruding from the bow, which looked like a round plug as a whole.

This spaceship made Xie Zhi stunned, nothing else, he knew it, and it was almost exactly the same as Han Solo's Millennium Falcon in the Star Wars trilogy. decisive role. (Note 1)

Through the induction of the Tai Chi ring, Xie Zhi already knew that Steve was in the spaceship.

As for why Steve didn't use his own spaceship, Xie Zhi didn't care too much. After all, many things must have happened after so many years.

The spaceship landed in the mist, and as the hatch opened, a hazy figure stepped down.

When the figure broke through the white mist and appeared in sight, Xie Zhi's pupils couldn't help shrinking.

He knew it was Steve, but the appearance was a bit of a surprise.

Nothing else, Steve is totally dressed like a Jedi!

Every time he moved, the sleeves of the brown robe fluttered, the large sleeves were windy, and he wore a hood to cover most of his face, showing the mystery of a master.

That's not old Captain America's style, especially... where's the shield?

Walking two meters away from Xie Zhi, Steve stopped, said nothing, lifted his cloak, and looked at Xie Zhi with neither sad nor happy eyes, unable to see his emotions.

At the moment, Steve has a full beard and long hair, with shawls and long hair. Although his face does not look old, it can hardly hide the vicissitudes of life. He has matured a lot, and also... a lot messy.

Xie Zhi raised his hand in embarrassment: "Brother... Long time no see~lightnovelpub.net~ I changed my look, um, he's still pretty handsome, very charming."

Qilu also waved his hands to be good-looking: "The fourth uncle's demeanor is still the same as before~"

R2: "Hissing~"

Steve remained silent, his brows furrowed even tighter.

Suddenly, he walked towards Xie Zhi with heavy steps and raised his hand.

Xie Zhi didn't move. He guessed that Steve was going to beat him up, so let's beat him up. After all, he cheated his brother and let Steve vent his anger.

Boom!

Xie Zhi was stunned, because what Steve did was... hugged him hard, and patted Xie Zhi **** the back.

Steve finally spoke: "You f**king finally showed up!"

"Uh... bro..."

Steve let go of Xie Zhi, took a step back, and the corner of his mouth curled up: "What's the matter, do you think I'm going to beat you?"

Xie Zhi scratched his nose: "This is more in line with common sense..."

"That's right." Steve nodded: "For the first two years after you just disappeared, let alone beat you, I really want to kill you alive! You shameless!

You will be back in a while, and you can't delay my cultivation, and you are so sarcastic, saying that I suspect that you will leave me alone, hey, you can really fool me, why did I believe you? "

"Brother, swearing is not your style."

"You were forced to do this!"
