I am immortal with scientific thinking

Chapter 889: Going to the past

In an instant, the world was spinning.

It was as if a strong wind blew in from the long years, blurring the sight of everything in front of me, and even the extremely dim light began to sway.

The twelve figures that looked like alien demon gods quickly blurred and faded in front of Su Mu's eyes. The cold and dead feeling around him disappeared, and was replaced by a kind of warmth that seemed to blow through the hall at sunset in the afternoon.

Everything around disappeared quickly at this moment, madness and delirium dissipated in the wind, the ancient and cold wasteland collapsed... everything seemed to be disappearing.

He was the only one who remained intact under the strong wind.

However, when all the abnormalities disappeared, the long wind that came from nowhere suddenly dissipated, allowing him to see everything around him clearly.

"Where is this place?" Su Mu was stunned.

When he came to his senses, he found that he was not in the bloody cave, nor in the alien wilderness, but a place that was extremely familiar to him.

Glass windows full of figurines, messy bedding, clothes that smell... this is my room.

Didn’t he go to the survivor base? Why did he return to his room?

Space transfer?

"A hallucination?"

Su Mu rubbed his temple. The indescribable terror just now almost shattered the rationality in his mind. Even though he had recovered a little in that strange wind, his mind was still a mess.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally took the time to observe the current situation.

First, examine yourself.

"Um?!"

Just a glance and Su Mu's expression changed instantly.

The exoskeleton armor he was wearing, the plasma pistol in his hand, the multifunctional tactical backpack... all the high-tech had disappeared without a trace, leaving only a pair of underwear he was wearing, and his body was covered with shiny sweat stains.

"This is how the same thing?!"

Su Mu's expression suddenly became extremely solemn.

What had happened before was beyond his comprehension, but no matter what it was, the only thing that was certain was that he was just an ordinary person at the moment, and if he encountered danger, he would have almost no power to resist.

"Let's go find the real body first."

Soon, Su Mu made a decision.

Although the current situation is definitely beyond Lin Chen's expectations, Su Mu is sure that the other party is capable of making the right choice.

But at this moment, a gentle voice suddenly came from outside the door:
"Amu, are you dressed? Hurry up."

Ok? !

The moment he heard the voice, Su Mu's face froze and his body suddenly tensed up.

He was very familiar with this voice. It was his... mother in this life.

Although Su Mu did not notice anything unusual during their time together last night, when he was able to accept Lin Chen's use of space-based kinetic weapons to bomb the city's core, it already showed that he understood something.

After all, everyone in the community has become a monster, and they all targeted them when the two of them left, which already shows a lot.

But sometimes understanding and accepting are two different things.

Now that I'm back here, no matter who the other person is or not, how should I face it?

Before Su Mu could come up with a solution, his mother's voice rang out again:
"Amu, stop playing your game and get dressed quickly. We have to go to the ancestral temple this afternoon to complete your coming-of-age ceremony. Hurry up..."

After he finished speaking, he heard the sound of footsteps going away.

Coming of age... ceremony?

Isn't my birthday on August 8th? But it's already December...

Su Mu was stunned when he heard this, and turned his head sharply to look at the calendar.

August 25
These few words seemed to have magical power, attracting his attention.

After a while, he came to his senses and rushed to the window.

brush--

The window was pushed open suddenly, and an extremely hot summer breeze blew in, giving people a feeling as if they were being roasted in a furnace.

The city that was half destroyed by space-based kinetic weapons was intact in front of her eyes. The scorching furnace in the sky revealed the year and time. The people coming and going and talking and laughing downstairs showed vitality and vigor...

This is Yuncang City.

But this is not the Yuncang City of today, it should be the Yuncang City three months ago.

"This is impossible!"

Su Mu suddenly became extremely gloomy.

Although he did not have all the memories of his original body, and did not have any understanding of the avenue of time and space, he was certain that such a scenario of reversing time and going back to three months ago was absolutely impossible.

In the world of immortal cultivation in his previous life, the most he could do was use particle regression to perform [pseudo-time and space reversal], but even so, it could only last a few seconds at most, or even less than an hour.

Even if one were to restart the cycle infinitely and forcibly go back to three months ago, no one in the world of immortal cultivation could do this, not even the Heavenly Lord.

In the world of immortal cultivation with such a profound foundation, countless powerful people who have reached the level of Hedao cannot do this, not to mention that this mere artificial world is not enough to give birth to an existence that can reverse time and space.

In order to achieve this, one must at least be a powerful being at the Hedao or even Daluo level, and such an existence will not be trapped in this ever-sinking world!
"Son, hurry up!"

At this time, my mother's voice came from outside the door again.

Su Mu collected his messy thoughts, quickly put on his clothes, then swept the room, hid the fruit knife that had just been used on the table on his body, took a deep breath, and walked out.

When I walked out of the room, I saw my father sitting on the sofa covered with a milky white sofa cover. The afternoon sun shone through the window, making everything golden.

My father wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, is thin and gentle, and is a high school geography teacher.

Seeing Su Mu with messy hair, his father walked up to him and brushed his bangs, saying in a helpless tone:
"Look at you. You're almost 18 and an adult. If you don't pay attention to your image, how are you going to find a girlfriend in the future?"

"Don't talk nonsense. My Amu is so handsome. He will definitely find a girlfriend when he goes to college." Mom glanced at Dad with some anger, then looked at Sumu and nodded with satisfaction. "As expected of my son, he is so handsome. Come on, let's go."

"Let's go? Go eat?" Su Mu was stunned when he heard this.

In his memory, on the day of his coming-of-age ceremony, he stayed at home the whole time, playing from morning to night, and at most Lin Chen came to visit them.

As for why the memory was so clear, it was because on his eighteenth birthday, Lin Chen found a movie from somewhere, it was a movie with a teacher named Xiao Ri Shi, and watched it with him for an entire afternoon... So in his memory, there was no concept of going out that day at all.

"You are just eating, you are just eating. Today is your coming-of-age ceremony, we have to go to worship our ancestors!" Dad said unhappily, then patted Su Mu's head, "Come on, stop talking nonsense, let's go."

Worshiping ancestors?

Coming of age ceremony requires worshipping ancestors? When did their family have this rule?
"This... I want to go find Achen." Su Mu inexplicably felt something was wrong and wanted to go out first.

"Achen? Today is also his birthday. Others have set out to worship their ancestors early. Unlike you, you have been waiting until now." Mom put on her shoes and stood up.

Did he also go to worship his ancestors?

That strange feeling of uneasiness that came from nowhere appeared again.

At this moment, Su Mu had that very strange feeling in his mind again, but he couldn't tell the source.

The most important thing is that the original body is not around now. Although the decisions made by the other party seem reckless in many cases, facts have proved that even if his choice is not the correct answer, it can cope with the current predicament.

But the problem is that now Lin Chen... has also gone to worship his ancestors.

"Okay, pack up and go."

Soon, they got out of the underground parking lot, started the car, and Su Mu followed his parents in the car and slowly left the community.

After a while, we arrived at the main street. It was June and the sun was particularly hot. There were not many pedestrians on both sides of the road, but in the shopping mall further away, there were people coming and going.

Some of them were talking and laughing, some were chasing and playing, some were kissing passionately in the street, and some were jumping on the ground for no apparent reason... There was no logic in their actions, they just did whatever made them happy, which was very consistent with the behavior of living people.

He seemed to have really returned to six months ago. Outside the window was a bustling city. Everything seemed so real.

Su Mu just sat by the window, looking at the scene outside motionlessly. He was thinking and observing.

But judging from the information feedback from the surroundings, what I saw before my eyes seemed... not an illusion.

It's just that all this is too weird to be understood.

However, judging from the current situation, it seems that the world six months ago was real, but Su Mu's heart has not wavered.

In this chaotic universe, there are powerful beings who can reverse time and space, but it is absolutely impossible for them to appear in this world, and there is no need for them to play tricks on an ant like him.

As for this kind of thing, is there a small probability that it will happen?

That's even more impossible.

If the avenue of time and space is a vague legend, then the conservation of energy is the essence of this universe, perhaps even closer to it than time and space.

To reverse the entropy increase effect and turn back the clock to six months ago, how much energy would be needed? I'm afraid it would take more than the entire world of immortal cultivation plus the world they created.

So this is definitely an illusion, but what's the point of doing this?
The fact that they were able to strip away their high-tech weapons and bring them here means that the mastermind behind this definitely has the ability to kill them.

If that's the case, why go to the trouble of bringing them to this illusion that seems to have happened six months ago?
"arrive."

My body leaned forward due to inertia and there was an obvious pause. The car stopped and I heard my father's voice.

Su Mu came back to his senses and made out the scenery outside.

This is... a crematorium?

Whose family worships their ancestors at the crematorium?
"Dad, are you sure you've come to the right place? Who would go to the crematorium to worship their ancestors?!" Su Mu suddenly clenched the knife hidden in his arms and asked.

"Are you confused from playing games, kid? Everyone is burned to ashes after death. Where else to go if not to the crematorium?" After hearing this, Dad turned his head and raised the corner of his mouth. "Come on, stop talking nonsense and go up quickly. Achen is also in there. He must have been waiting for you for a long time."

Su Mu felt an inexplicable sense of weirdness, as if something was wrong, but when he heard that Lin Chen was also in there, his extremely tense heartstrings relaxed a little.

No matter what, we must reunite with the original body as soon as possible. As long as he is around, things can't be that bad.

My parents seemed very excited. As soon as they parked the car, they grabbed Sumu and took him to the crematorium.

“After you pay homage to your ancestors, you can become a real adult…” my parents said excitedly.

But Su Mu had no intention of listening to this.

Almost all of his attention was devoted to observing the surrounding environment.

This crematorium... is very quiet.

There was no crying, no noise, and even few people were walking around. They came to the main entrance and walked through the lobby. There was not even a greeter. Only the sound of footsteps could be heard echoing twice.

And it's not just the sound that is dead silent, but also the environment.

This crematorium does not look like it was newly built, but rather it looks like it has existed for a very long time.

The old buildings had all lost their paint, and there were patches of burnt marks everywhere. The corners were filled with grayish-white ash, and there was a very strange and pungent smell in the air, as if something was burning...

It feels like this place has experienced a fire, so there is an indescribable silence and desolation.

Crematoriums...are all of them like this?
Su Mu had never been there and had no memory of it. With insufficient information, he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad.

I can only reunite with my main body first...

"It's here, it's here!"

It seemed that they had found the place, and Mom and Dad pulled Sumu in. It seemed to be a secret room without even the most basic window. The room was empty with only a lamp above their heads and a statue in front of them.

“Here, right here!”

Su Mu's father grabbed him tightly, and with an unstoppable force surging in his hands, he pulled him back into the room. Looking at the statue in front of him, his face even revealed an extremely excited expression.

The door was closed, and the parents quickly took out the things they had learned and got busy.

In less than a moment, the whole room was filled with smoke and smoky clouds.

The strange fragrance filled the whole house, as if it was on fire. After just a few sniffs of the sumac, I was choked, and my body always had an extreme resistance to it, even though the smoke was really fragrant.

On the contrary, my parents seemed to be very intoxicated, breathing heavily, and there was even a sickly flush on their faces.

No, there is definitely something wrong...

When Su Mu saw this scene, he subconsciously took a step back.

That strange feeling of uneasiness surged up in his heart again, and he could even feel his heart pounding, as if something bad was about to happen.

But even though his mind was clearly aware of something, his body was subconsciously moving forward and was completely out of his control.

It is like when a person is extremely frightened, even if the thoughts in his head are extremely clear, his body will subconsciously act according to instinct.

But that is a phenomenon that only occurs when ordinary people are weak-willed and encounter danger. He shouldn't have that phenomenon, unless he is affected by some unknown force.

When did this influence begin?

But it doesn't seem to matter now.

Because he walked forward step by step.

Then he watched helplessly as his parents took out a bottle of gasoline from the huge backpack on their backs, opened it, and had extremely pious and kind expressions on their faces:
"Son, let's hold a coming-of-age ceremony today. Once you're through it, you'll be an adult!" (End of this chapter)
