"I mean physical time. My watch has stopped working, which might offer a glimmer of hope," Cheng Yu explained to the fat man.

"Could it be that the watch ran out of battery?" It wasn't that the fat man didn't believe it, but it was just too far-fetched. If time could be stopped, and someone possessed that technology, why would Qin Shi Huang have bothered with the pursuit of immortality? He would have already unified the world by now.

Cheng Yu ran back quickly, and when he reached a certain point, he shouted, "Here! This is the critical point of this area. Once you cross this point, time will start to move, and if you return, time will freeze."

"Not entirely. Perhaps time flows more slowly. Time isn't static. The problem lies with this wall. Time moves slower near this wall than elsewhere, which explains why we heard Wu Xie coughing just now." Jie Yuhua moved away from the wall. Wu Xie wondered if there was something wrong with the wall, but he felt that Jie Yuhua's tone of voice seemed to be getting faster and faster.

"Hmm." The young man responded, indicating that Xie Yuhua's analysis was correct. However, Xie Yuhua ignored him and turned to look at the wall again.

"Who is it?" In a daze, he seemed to hear someone humming a tune, the voice sounded like a child's. He must have been mistaken; the child wasn't behind him, so how could he speak again? He smiled. Oh, child, so I can also be consumed by worry.

"What did you hear, Xiao Hua? I didn't hear anything! Don't scare me." Wu Xie was a little scared. Ever since Ling Xiao's death, he had been paying special attention to Xie Yu Hua, afraid that something might happen to him. Now he was really worried. This person was starting to hallucinate.

Jieyuhua smiled and shook her head at him, offering no further explanation, simply assuming she had misheard.

After hearing that melody, he clearly heard the words: "Little Flower Brother, did I sing well?"

He turned around abruptly, but there was nothing there, only Wu Xie's worried expression.

A flash in the pan.

Jieyuhua felt he had gone mad and perhaps he should take a nap.

"Hey! You surnamed Xie, why aren't you answering me?"

"So, you dare to ignore me now? Are you going to give me the silent treatment again tomorrow?"

"I know you can hear me! My confidante! I'm giving you one last chance, talk to me!"

"I'll pinch your cheeks, pinch them until they're as big as a fat pig, so you can only play the role of Marshal Tianpeng from now on!"

"I worship you so much, please pay me some attention!"

These voices filled Jieyuhua's ears, and his eyes grew increasingly red until he finally couldn't hold back his tears.

Why is it that even though he mustered up the courage and did it with the mindset of saving the child, he still feels so distressed?

"Hey! I gave you a chance, but you missed it. I'm not talking to you anymore," the voice said again.

After saying that, the voice really disappeared. Jieyuhua was a little flustered. He didn't want to face the voice when it appeared, but he was afraid that if he lost the child with auditory hallucinations, the child would gradually disappear from his memory.

"Jieyuhua, why are you crying?" Jieyuhua felt something touch her cheek, something cold, but when she looked up, she couldn't see anything.

No, maybe he couldn't see anything at all. Maybe it really was a child, just like when he first saw the child, the one only he could reach, his older brother.

"I'm here." Xie Yuhua finally responded, and Ling Xiao's voice unconsciously revealed a satisfied laugh. Then, he pretended to be angry and said, "It's too late. You got angry for nothing. I'm punishing you by making you buy me two servings of stir-fried hawthorns!"

“Okay,” Jieyuhua replied.
