Chapter 1 The beginning of everything

(one)

The gentle breeze mixed with the fragrance of vegetation in the jungle, wrapped in the last ray of tenderness blown from the setting sun, like a girl's gentle little hand, patting Xu Mo's face.

Xu Mo woke up in a daze.

"Where is this?" Looking at the unfamiliar sight in front of him, Xu Mo rubbed his eyes.

He was sitting in a dilapidated octagonal pavilion, leaning against a pillar, surrounded by dense woods. Looking up, he saw mountains and mountains, and the setting sun was like blood.

"Didn't I take a nap at home?"

Xu Mo recalled it.

That's right.

Today is Saturday, and he usually spends his days off very leisurely, turning on the TV, lying on the sofa, eating some snacks, and squinting for a while if he wants to doze off.

Why are you staring so hard?

Xu Mo was puzzled.

I was about to take out my phone to check what time it was, but then I touched my pocket.

Nothing.

It wasn’t that he didn’t have a mobile phone, but that he didn’t have pockets. Xu Mo lowered his head and saw that the clothes were not his.

Wait a moment.

"Where are my glasses?" Xu Mo touched his face, his expression gradually turning frightened.

He quickly understood the current situation. This was not his rental house, not to mention the clothes, not even his body.

This is very easy to confirm, he is not short-sighted, he has thin skin and tender flesh, he seems younger, and his hair is long and tied at the top.

Xu Mo's scalp went numb for a moment and his head felt dizzy.

"What on earth is going on?" Xu Mo muttered, looking at the unfamiliar environment around him, feeling a little confused and at a loss.

He tried to walk around and take a look, hoping to find something.

Step out of the Octagonal Pavilion and walk towards the setting sun.

The further they walked, the more unsure Xu Mo felt.

This place is completely deep in the mountains and old forests. He also found that the clothes he was wearing were like the robes of the ancients. They were a bit shabby, his feet were ragged, and he did not have any modern items on his body.

Maybe they are ancient people.

Thinking about this made me even more panicked.

Before, half of the setting sun had entered the mountains. After walking around in the mountains and forests for a while, the remaining half of the setting sun had also set. There were no street lights or any lighting equipment, and the surroundings quickly became extremely dark.

Xu Mo walked through the mountains and forests. After walking for a while, he vaguely saw a stone monument half a man tall in front of him, surrounded by overgrown weeds.

If you look closely, you will see three words engraved on the irregular stone tablet.

‘Ten Miles Slope’.

The place name looks familiar.

In a daze, the wind suddenly started blowing on the ground. Xu Mo heard movement behind him. He looked back in confusion and saw a huge, colorful tiger crouching in the dark grass, staring at him.

When Xu Mo met the tiger's eyes, he was stunned for a moment. Then he felt his scalp explode and his limbs were weak. Before he could react, the tiger in the grass pounced forward and opened its mouth to bite.

…

The gentle breeze mixed with the fragrance of vegetation in the jungle, wrapped in the last ray of warmth blown from the setting sun, patted Xu Mo's face like a girl's gentle little hand.

Xu Mo woke up again.

But this time he woke up with a start. The pain of being bitten by a tiger and the extreme fear caused by it made him stare and breathe heavily, as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

"Tiger? I, I was eaten? What happened?"

Xu Mo took a deep breath and stretched out his hand to touch his neck.

There are no wounds.

What about the big tiger?

Also, isn’t this the octagonal pavilion from before?

"Why did I come back?"

Xu Mo's eyes widened and he looked around, his eyes full of doubts and confusion.

It wasn't until he saw the setting sun entering the mountains and the cool mountain breeze that he gradually pulled out some valuable things from the tangled thoughts to straighten them out.

"Did I just dream, or did I really experience those things?"

Now, Xu Mo has obviously experienced all this once, when the sun sets and he suddenly wakes up in the Octagonal Pavilion... But before that, he clearly ran to a place where the 'Shilipo' stone monument was erected, and then he was suddenly eaten by a big tiger.

Already.

That tiger is really big.

But now, he is intact.

This is impossible.

Thinking of this, Xu Mo immediately got up from the ground and ran forward along the same path as before.

Everything along the road was very familiar, and the more I looked at it, the more frightened I became. This time it took only a short time, and soon I saw the "Shilipo" stone monument. At this time, the sunset was still showing a corner, and the sky had not completely darkened.

"It's not a dream!"

Xu Mo looked at the stone tablet with the words "Shilipo" engraved on it, and his mind was filled with thoughts.

Since it is not a dream and there is a stone monument, there must be a tiger.

Xu Mo hurriedly looked at the grass where the tiger had been lurking.

Nothing.

Arrived early? It seems the tiger hasn’t arrived yet.

At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and Xu Mo was startled. He secretly thought that this was not a good place, so he had better run away!

Get out of here first.

Xu Mo's heartbeat accelerated and he immediately chose a direction and ran wildly. He didn't know what happened to him. From the current point of view, this matter was full of absurdity and unbelievable, completely beyond his scope of cognition.

But at least one thing is certain. The previous experience of being eaten by a tiger did not seem to be a dream.

The mountains and forests are so dense that one cannot distinguish between east and west.

Xu Mo walked around completely without knowing how far he ran. By the time he was exhausted and rested against a tree, the sky had completely darkened and the surrounding area was plunged into darkness.

From just now, Xu Mo heard movement in the surrounding mountains and forests.

It seemed like something was following him.

At this time, a sudden gust of wind blew over. Xu Mo just said something bad in secret and was knocked down, and then his neck felt cold.

…

The gentle breeze mixed with the fragrance of vegetation in the jungle, wrapped in the last ray of tenderness blown from the setting sun, like a girl's gentle little hand, patting Xu Mo's face again and again.

Xu Mo woke up again with a shocked face.

He looked around with disbelief and touched his neck again. This time he was stunned for a while, then he suppressed his restless thoughts and began to analyze it carefully.

Xu Mo works as a system architect, and maintaining rationality and logical judgment is a professional quality.

Recalling the incident from beginning to end, Xu Mo found that he should have been caught in some kind of supernatural infinite loop. One of the reasons for coming to this conclusion was because of some online novels and movies that he often saw.

The play has a similar setting.

All the incredible things happening now can be included.

"When I wake up in the Bajiao Pavilion, the sun has not yet set, and after the sun sets, I will be eaten by the tigers wandering here, and then the cycle repeats?"

This is a conclusion drawn by Xu Mo.

Very supernatural.

Xu Mo felt that there was another possibility, that is, he was still sleeping on the sofa at home and everything was just a dream. If this was the case, then as long as he really woke up, everything would return to normal.

Perhaps because he knew he would be eaten by tigers after dark, Xu Mo didn't go anywhere this time. He changed into a comfortable position and looked at the beautiful sunset.

My thoughts and mood gradually calmed down.

"If, in case all this is true, how many times will this situation of beginning and ending start again? Assuming it is infinite times, doesn't it mean that I can never go back? The most important thing is that every time
