【Zhou Ye】The Foot of Time

Zhou Zekai couldn't count how many times he pushed open the door of TARDIS.

Every time that door is not wide, Zhou Zekai's heart always jumps for joy, because there is always a new world behind that door, full of unknowns and surprises.

But this time, Zhou Zekai felt that the door was as heavy as a cold sentence.

He landed at the Glory branch in Hangzhou, because he knew there was a time rift here, and there was a great possibility that Ye Xiu would stay here.But this time the docking was so precise, as soon as the door was opened, Zhou Zekai saw Ye Xiu, sitting on the desk, holding a cigarette between his fingers, silently exhaling a puff of white smoke.

"...Xiao Zhou, you're here." Ye Xiu didn't turn his head, as if the smoke gradually spreading in the air deserved his attention more than his lover, "Do you still want to try today? Heh..." He suddenly hooked The corners of his lips curled into a quick smile, "Look at what I said, of course you will try, after all, this happened before."

Zhou Zekai felt that the air he depended on for survival was plundered by such a few short words, but he still managed to exhale the last trace of air from his lungs, because he still wanted to speak: "...Because it's the opposite?"

Ye Xiu's hand that was about to push the cigarette to his lips stopped in mid-air, and suddenly turned his head to look over.

This time, Zhou Zekai understood his gaze.

pain.

Heart-piercing pain.

But suddenly, Ye Xiu laughed, as if the burden on his shoulders was lifted instantly: "So this is when you found out that our timeline is reversed? It's finally the day... In other words, From now on, all I will see is you who is carefree... that's fine."

fair enough?

Zhou Zekai almost retreated to the Tadisli.

The Time Lord has a wide range of knowledge and amazing experience.Complicated time that is incomprehensible to other races is as clear and clear to them as the four arithmetic formulas.But at this moment, Zhou Zekai wished that he would not be so smart, and not so easily obtain more information from Ye Xiu's seemingly unclear words.

How would a person react if he just found out that his timeline was opposite to that of his lover?Surely it won't be like Ye Xiu is now, all the pain and pain are compressed to the extreme - he will show it, he will not be able to accept it, and even think it's all a joke, and stay in this state for a long time.And during this period of time, he will try every means to try to change, trying to get the two people's timeline out of the current situation.

Yes, this is what Zhou Zekai would do.

He can't accept it, but he will definitely not give up easily, even if the knowledge he has so far tells him an answer - no solution!

But for Ye Xiu, who accepted this cruel fact early and only wanted to cherish every aspect, it was nothing more than a kind of torture.

Therefore, Ye Xiu even looked forward to this day, looking forward to the current self, holding this question in front of him.After this side, he will be able to see his carefree self... And this has indeed happened in his past - he talked about the previous date ignorantly, creating many indestructible fixed points; and Ye Xiu also deliberately concealed it, covering himself with a seamless cloak.

Ye Xiu put out the cigarette butts, and the crystal ashtray was so full of cigarette butts that he couldn't see the bottom: "...Do you need me to explain it to you in detail?"

Zhou Zekai remained motionless, and in his silence, Ye Xiu continued to speak.

"I don't know how you found out. Maybe it's because I talk too much the next time I see you? But it doesn't matter, anyway, no matter if I talk more or less next time, you will already know by now—— Our timelines are reversed. Either chaotic or completely reversed, at least not one missed as far as I know."

"When I first found out, I thought it was impossible. How could there be such a timeline, and how could such a timeline be formed by itself without human intervention? But I have come here, and I can't deceive myself that this It's fake." He took out another cigarette from the cigarette case, tried the lighter several times but failed, so he had to give up.

Zhou Zekai had a lighter in his pocket, which was specially carried by Ye Xiu, but he couldn't move it.

"I'm getting older, but you are getting younger..." He laughed, "Although you can't see it on the outside, your eyes can't deceive you. One day, I will meet you who just met me You, and that was the last time... You should look at me like a stranger, ask who I am, and keep a five-step distance from me politely, right?"

Zhou Zekai almost wanted to say "no", but he didn't dare to speak again.

"After all, that's what I did to you..." Ye Xiu looked down at the cigarette case in his hand, "Just like today, the lighter couldn't be lit, and I saw you as soon as I turned around, and I thought to myself, this young man is so old. You are so handsome, let me ask you—”

"do not!"

Zhou Zekai stepped forward and covered Ye Xiu's mouth.

"Don't say..."

Don't say it.

Once he said it, the time when Ye Xiu saw him for the first time would be locked.Once the unknown future becomes known, what else can Zhou Zekai do to prevent it from happening?

"...Xiao Zhou." Ye Xiu took Zhou Zekai's hand away, and shook his head lightly at him, "It's useless, it doesn't make any difference whether you say it or not, after all, this is my past, it has already happened."

"must……"

Ye Xiu interrupted him: "There is no way. Well, even though I say you will still try it... because you have already tried it in my timeline." He smiled wryly, "I am a fixed point, Xiao Zhou, Nothing on my timeline can be changed, when you told me the consequences of being made a fixed point by Mu Qiu..."

"Mu Qiu?" Now Zhou Zekai interrupted Ye Xiu, because the name suddenly connected another thread in his mind, and he couldn't wait for a second, "Su Muqiu? Su Mucheng's brother? "

"Yes. He...Xiao Zhou?" Ye Xiu grabbed Zhou Zekai who was walking back, "Where are you going?"

"Back to Gallifrey."

"Are you looking for Mucheng?"

"Yes."

The people who traveled with Ye Xiu back then were Su Mucheng and her brother, the Su Muqiu who died of time assassination.That's right, Su Muqiu's TARDIS was also missing after his death. He should have discovered the connection earlier. After all, it was not easy for Ye Xiu to obtain an unowned TARDIS. How could he have never thought of it?And Su Muqiu turned Ye Xiu into a fixed point in time and space before he died, so Su Mucheng must know what happened, and he had to find Su Mucheng to find out the situation.Once you know how to turn a person into a fixed point in time and space, then maybe you can find a way to remove the fixed point!

As long as Ye Xiu is not fixed in time, his timeline will not be indestructible, so there is still room for change!

"Xiao Zhou—hmm."

Zhou Zekai turned around and kissed Ye Xiu.He held Ye Xiu's face and kissed it so hard, as if he wanted to convey his determination with this kiss.

"Wait for me." He stared into Ye Xiu's eyes, "Wait for me to change it."

Then he resolutely walked into his TARDIS, closed the door, and blocked Ye Xiu's sight behind him.That gaze was too heavy, and if he was looked at for another second, he might not have the courage to continue.

——You know that I will only wait for you who know nothing about it.

Zhou Zekai couldn't understand the meaning of it, but he had to go, even if he hit the south wall with blood on his head.
