Chapter 5 Time to Velocity Ratio
Xu Ming remembered it very clearly that when he rented a house from the portable world, the sun had not set yet, which was about four o'clock in the afternoon.
But he came back to cook, had a meal, and rested for a while, and at most an hour and a half passed.
When the vortex channel is opened again.
He found that there was no longer white light transmitting across the opposite side, and he also fell into a dark night, with only dim starlight.
For safety reasons, if it was night on both sides, Xu Ming would rather rest while renting a house to prevent accidents.
"But why did it get dark so quickly over there?"
"Is there something going on when I left for a while?"
suddenly!
Thinking of something.
Xu Ming hurriedly took over Damai 9s phone placed beside the bed, turned on the screen, and looked at the time above: November 3, 11:05 pm.
Suddenly, my face was shocked!
"I remember when I first went to the side of the world, it was around 8 o'clock in the evening, and then I stayed there for four or five hours, rented a house to cook and rest, and spent nearly two hours... I had a total of six or seven hours of activity."
"Really, it should be two or three in the morning on November 4th, so why are you still staying on November 3rd?"
"Is it because the phone is broken and the time display is malfunctioning?"
However, when I opened the curtains and looked at the night view of the city outside the window, the streets were still busy, and some shops were still open, not as deserted as two or three in the morning.
"Then... there is only one answer! There was at least three hours, and it was extra out of thin air, forming unnecessary memories in my mind."
"The only reason for this phenomenon is..."
Xu Ming's attention returned to the mysterious vortex in front of him.
Time, space, time and space, different spaces have different times.
Even at different locations in the same time and space, the time flow rate is also different.
For example, objects that move near the speed of light will pass very slowly.
When you are close to a black hole, time flows will also become slower.
What's more, in two completely different worlds, the clock speed cannot be consistent.
In order to confirm how big the difference between the two sides is, Xu Ming thought of a very simple method. He turned on the stopwatch of his phone, clicked the start button, and quickly put the phone into the vortex channel. He counted silently for ten seconds in his mind, and then quickly took the phone back.
Xu Ming was shocked when he saw the numbers on the stopwatch on his phone.
32 seconds!
It took twenty seconds more.
In order to accurately measure the time flow rate ratio, Xu Ming opened the Flying Fortress 6 laptop, double-clicked the browser, and opened a web page online countdown.
Then, an alarm clock that vibrates at 11:20 was set on the phone. When the phone time just jumped to 11:15, immediately put the phone into the vortex channel.
Click the mouse with your left hand to let the countdown on the computer start counting.
Only a little while!
The phone vibrated from the other side of the right and the alarm clock rang.
Xu Ming puts his left hand on the mouse and immediately clicks to pause, and the countdown stops counting.
Finally, I saw that the number displayed by the countdown is: 101.58 seconds
"The alarm clock for five minutes is 300 seconds, but it only took over 100 seconds for Blue Star to go."
"In other words, 1 second has passed on the Blue Star, 3 seconds has passed on the other side of the Walking World. A day has passed on the Blue Star, and three days have passed on the other side!"
"The time flow rate ratio is about 1:3."
Xu Ming finally found the thing he had been vaguely feeling that something was wrong these days. He never expected that the time flow rate between the two sides would be so different.
He was a little unaware of whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
If Xu Ming was a student and was still in school, he could use this world of people to get twice as much study time than others, so that he would make a mistake that was unfair to others in his studies, so that even if a person with a weak mind would study hard, his grades would not be worse than those of the top students.
This is a powerful tool for learning!
The disadvantage is that everyone's life span is limited. Even if you live to a hundred years of health, if you choose to spend these time in your portable world, then dividing by three means that 33.3 years have passed by Blue Star and you have lived a hundred years of life.
Xu Ming is 24 years old this year. Assuming he can live 76 years, if he chooses to live all these times in the portable world, then he will have died in the portable world for about 25 years on Blue Star.
It means that Blue Star will not live to be 50 years old.
This is definitely a premature death, which seriously delays the average life expectancy.
"What should I do? I don't want to die so early. I also want to see the controlled nuclear fusion successfully achieved in my lifetime, and to see the country achieve great rejuvenation on the top of the Blue Star...but these goals are unlikely to be completed within 25 years."
"There are also time to explore the world where you carry around. There are many mysteries waiting to be revealed. I also want to breathe more fresh air over there and get a better quality of life."
"You can't have both, you need to make some planning and trade-offs."
Xu Ming suddenly shook his head and threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind.
"What do I want so much now?"
"The most urgent task at the moment is to explore the portable world well, use some resources of the portable world to solve the survival problems in reality, and then plan your future life after it stabilizes."
"...It's already very late, go to bed early, and if there is anything to go on tomorrow."
Xu Ming, who had been yawning for a long time and was exhausted, turned off the vortex channel, lay on the bed, covered it with a quilt, and soon fell asleep.
...
The next morning at 8 o'clock.
Xu Ming had red date millet porridge for breakfast, which was paired with buns and fried dough sticks bought from the breakfast shop outside. The taste was simply unspeakable, especially the fragrant red date millet porridge. The flesh of each piece seemed to be eating diced radish, which was sweet and smooth, and was even better than the red date rice last night.
"Perhaps, red dates are more suitable for making porridge than cooking rice."
Xu Ming put down his chopsticks and patted his belly.
After packing the dishes.
Open the vortex channel and glanced at it. It was still night in the other side of the world. It would be dawn after a while. Xu Ming turned on the computer and watched the video of B station.
At this time,
The cell phone on the desk rang and a phone call came.
I took my phone and saw that it was Lao Yang's animal.
Swipe right to answer.
Xu Ming leaned back and asked, "Old Yang, is there anything wrong with me?"
"You boy is so embarrassed to ask," Lao Yang said unhappy on the phone: "I'll ask you, have you quit the job you have recently? You're not going to do such a good job?"
"I've quit, how did you know?"
Xu Ming asked strangely, Lao Yang's real name is Li Guoyang, and he is 30 years old this year. The two have been roommates under the same roof for nearly two years. They are friends with good relationships. Although they don't meet often, they also contact each other occasionally.
"Mr. Zhang from Dingxin Company told me that if I hadn't called him and asked about your situation specifically, I wouldn't have known that you had resigned! Xu Ming, tell me, why did you quit such a good job?"
Xu Ming asked back, "Why can't I quit? If I can't continue, just quit."
"you--"
Lao Yang was angry and said indifferently: "Xu Ming, I introduced you to Dingxin Company for an interview before, hoping that you can stabilize and get on the right track, but I was treated like a donkey and you would like to throw away such a good job. Tell me, what kind of job is suitable for you?"
“Ah~”
Xu Ming was surprised: "What do you mean... the hr job in Dingxin Company was arranged by Lao Yang for me?"
"Nonsense! Otherwise, with your high school education, you still want to be a white-collar worker in the office from 9 to 5, dream about you!"
Lao Yang rolled his eyes across the phone.
Xu Ming then realized that it was no wonder that he got the job after Lao Yang's greeting. At that time, he thought it was based on his own strength. Now that he thought it was his naiveness and ridiculous.
However, since things have come to this point, even if he apologizes for Lao Yang's kindness, he still doesn't regret it.
"Xu Ming, I have a good personal relationship with Mr. Zhang. He should still sell me a lot of face. In this way, you can continue to go back to work in Dingxin. If you can't hold on to such an easy job, I really can't help you even if I want to help you. It's impossible to arrange for you to be your boss."
Lao Yang persuaded that although with his ability and family background, it would be no problem to arrange Xu Ming to be a small boss.
"No! A good horse will not turn back. Lao Yang, thank you for your kindness. I will arrange my own affairs myself. Thank you for your concern." Xu Ming refused.
"I really don't think about it?"
"I won't think about it."
"Okay, you bastard, I don't care about you anymore! Next year you can continue to work as your supermarket porter!"
