In the Dragon Palace on the Sea, Gu Xiaobai saw Yan Xuexin leaning against the wall in the corridor outside his laboratory door.

"Yan, what are you doing here? Where have you been these two days." Since Yan Xuexin agreed to help Gu Xiaobai, he devoted most of his energy to helping Gu Xiaobai's research.

Although Yan Xuexin himself did not make many achievements in scientific research, this was because Yan Xuexin covered too many areas, liked too many things, and was too distracted.

What Gu Xiaobai is studying is currently a scientific blank, and his previous achievements and experience are actually of no use. Yan Xuexin's super high IQ and super learning ability come in handy here, and he can quickly get started.

He quickly took over Gu Xiaobai's research and helped Gu Xiaobai with auxiliary work. He also has strong hands-on skills and can be said to have become Gu Xiaobai's most effective assistant.

For a genius like Yan Xuexin to conscientiously curb his sharp edges and follow his own path, I am afraid that only Gu Xiaobai can do it.

However, two days ago Yan Xuexin suddenly said that he had something to do and disappeared for two days. Gu Xiaobai, who was used to working with Yan Xuexin, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"I'm going to verify something..." Yan Xuexin raised his head. His movements were a little slow, and he had an air of twilight that shouldn't be expected at this age. His eyes when he looked at Gu Xiaobai were slightly gray, as if he was standing in front of Gu Xiaobai.

It was not a young man, but an old man. He said slowly: "Xiao Bai, I want to tell you something..."

Gu Xiaobai was stunned, his eyes widened, and he looked at Yan Xuexin: "You went too? How long... how long have you been there?"

He could tell at a glance that Yan Xuexin had traveled through time!

Moreover, I'm afraid that staying there for a long time after traveling through time has seriously affected Yan Xuexin's own personality and self.

Although the system's time travel is similar to the "soul time travel" in a dream, everyone's "relative time" is different.

If you rely solely on your own intelligence, or the "hardware conditions" of your brain, Yan Xuexin is probably the best in the world. He can defeat the "acquired genius" Gu Xiaobai in seconds. For him, it takes a few days.

Time may even last a century.

"How long have you been there?" Yan Xuexin's thinking was even a little sluggish, and he frowned in confusion.

After a long time, he shook his head and said: "I...I don't know."

Time travel is like a dream. After waking up from time travel, the sense of time will be suppressed by the human brain. This is the brain's protective mechanism. Otherwise, human beings will be torn apart by the sense of alienation in their brains and thoughts.

"Don't be too greedy and recall things that happened in time travel, let your mind empty out..."

Gu Xiaobai said that his time-travel experience is extremely rich. As long as he does not cling to the memories after time-travel, his brain will gradually repair this sense of fragmentation.

Yan Xuexin closed his eyes. After a long time, his eyes regained clarity. He took a deep breath and said to Gu Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, I know where the little moth is! I also know how you froze the little moth.

!”

"How could it be? Did you see it?" Gu Xiaobai's eyes widened.

A few minutes later, Yan Xuexin drew a huge flow chart on the huge whiteboard in Gu Xiaobai's laboratory.

"In general, this is how this system works. First, there are two mutually isolated links, cryopreservation and rapid freezing..."

"The core area of ​​this system is an iceberg. We can also call this area the 'core cold storage'. The little moths are frozen inside for a long time. This iceberg floats on the sea all year round, far away from the turmoil and bustle on the ground.

At the same time, we also trace the crustal movement in different places according to different eras, and borrow the energy released by the crustal movement nearby."

Huge objects lose temperature very slowly, and such huge icebergs also melt very slowly. The core area of ​​the iceberg can be maintained at low temperatures for a long time, and with the help of some technical means, it can be maintained at extremely low temperatures relatively easily.

"Of course, ancient times did not have the technical conditions to drag and sail icebergs. Icebergs could only follow ocean currents and make limited direction corrections, so there was also an executor on the ground. They built huge machines and borrowed the energy of crustal movement.

Create an instant extremely low temperature. There is also a link in this process, which is to keep the moth in this state and transport it from land to the iceberg... During the period when the moth is frozen, the iceberg can return to the extremely cold areas of the North and South Pole.

'Cold supplement'..."

Gu Xiaobai was stunned when he heard this.

"This... is too much of a battle."

In Gu Xiaobai's imagination, the little moth was in a "secret mausoleum", and then woke up every once in a while and appeared in the world.

It feels a bit like "Zhongnan Mountain Tomb of the Living Dead".

He never thought that this entire system was actually so complicated, so huge, so...incredible.

How can this thing possibly work?

“How is it possible for so many people to complete such a huge project?”

Although most of the people around Gu Xiaobai are loyal and enthusiastic, and there are even some descendants who are still loyal to Gu Xiaobai, sometimes even hundreds of years apart, Gu Xiaobai understands the change of people's hearts too well.

Things are changing.

But when the old man passes away, everything will become different. It is difficult to pass on the inheritance for one or two generations. It can be said that the inheritance for hundreds of years is rare but not sought.

Not to mention, during the change of generations, even dynasties only last a few hundred years, and their rise and fall occur within a hundred years. How difficult it is for a system to operate stably for 2,700 years.

Even if the little moth has a song called "Duet of Love" that can inspire others to "love", its effect is almost cheating, but it is not a panacea. Each time the little moth falls asleep, it will last for hundreds of years.

"This system is very exquisitely designed. Even though I have been lurking for so long, I still haven't been able to fully see through it..." Yan Xuexin shook his head, "However, there are two most important points. One is...you."

"Me?" Gu Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.

Although he cannot travel back to every era or every moment, his meeting with the little moth proves that they are in the same era and he can participate in it.

It's just that he doesn't know it now.

"And the other one is...the temptation of immortality."

Immortality.

Gu Xiaobai suddenly understood.

Since ancient times, countless emperors have been pursuing the elusive immortality.

Although freezing cannot be regarded as a true immortality, countless terminal diseases in ancient times are just minor illnesses in modern times.

Since ancient times, China has well-documented records. The average lifespan of emperors whose age is recorded is only about 40 years old. If those whose age is included are included, they are probably less than 40 years old.

Qin Shihuang was only 49 years old when he died. If this age were in modern times, it would be the age when children have just finished college. Even grandfathers may not be able to become grandfathers. Some people think they take up space when dancing in the square.

Qianlong's longevity is just like an old man basking in the sun in the community today.

If someone tells you that your life span can be doubled, or even 2,700 years old...

Thinking of this, Gu Xiaobai couldn't laugh or cry, and even felt an inexplicable sense of absurdity.
