Chapter 381 (1/2)

The woman said in such detail that Chu Yunsheng immediately understood what she was trying to say, “You mean that the world we used to live in is an enclosed s.p.a.ce and the only difference is that our world is a three-dimensional s.p.a.ce?”

“You can think it that way.” The woman nodded and showed Chu Yunsheng her newly-made model. “It’s a bit of a ha.s.sle to make a Klein bottle model with a veil. Although it’s not quite like it, you will still be able to get the idea behind it. It is just like two Mobius strips that are glued to each other. It has no internal and external. It has no boundary.

In fact, it can’t be used as an example to describe a sealed three-dimensional s.p.a.ce, because it is too simple. The model that can be used to perfectly represent a real sealed three-dimensional s.p.a.ce can only be created in the four-dimensional s.p.a.ce. Just like the Mobius strips can only be created in a three-dimensional s.p.a.ce.”

Chu Yunsheng was confused, “Since this bottle can’t describe a sealed three-dimensional s.p.a.ce, why do you want to use it to explain it?”

“The fourth dimension. I need to use it to make you understand that a sealed three-dimensional s.p.a.ce can only be done in the fourth-dimensional s.p.a.ce. Just like the real Klein bottle model must also be built in the fourth-dimensional s.p.a.ce. So what I want to tell you is that in order for a dimensional s.p.a.ce to be sealed, there must be one additional dimension.” the woman made a number four hand gesture and said.

Chu Yunsheng thought for a second and said, “I don’t understand. Although I don’t know much about science, I have heard people saying that time is the fourth dimension. If it is like that, it means that the s.p.a.ce we are living in is not sealed, because at least, we can still feel the existence of time.”

The woman smiled and shook her head, “I have said it in the beginning that time is not a dimension, it is just an axis, only when the time axis and a dimensional s.p.a.ce are combined together, a meaningful world will exist.

For example, you can’t say that there is no time in the two-dimensional s.p.a.ce. Think of it this way, If two-dimensional creatures treat time as a dimension, they will think that they are living in a three-dimensional world. Don’t you think that idea is a bit silly? The fact is that the real three-dimensional s.p.a.ce is a s.p.a.ce that consists of length, width, and height. It is not a s.p.a.ce consisting of length, width, and time.

And time, as an axis, it exists in all the dimensional s.p.a.ce. It exists in the one-dimensional s.p.a.ce, the two-dimensional s.p.a.ce, the three-dimensional s.p.a.ce. Even the four-dimensional s.p.a.ce also has time. The understanding of time is different in each dimensional s.p.a.ce due to the different understanding of the world. The laws of the two-dimensional s.p.a.ce cannot explain all phenomena in the three-dimensional s.p.a.ce. This theory also applies to three-dimensional s.p.a.ce. The laws of three-dimensional s.p.a.ce and all the theories that have been proven correct during the age of light cannot explain all the phenomena in the four-dimensional s.p.a.ce.”

Chu Yunsheng couldn’t fully understand what she was saying, but there was one thing he knew. The first thing he must do before he could practice the method in the ancient book was to break the three-dimensional s.p.a.ce barrier and establish an energy communication channel, and this dimension channel may be connecting the fourth dimension that the woman said.

He thought carefully about it for a few seconds and said, “According to your statement, in the age of light, we were isolated from the four-dimensional s.p.a.ce, right? Then, what should the real fourth dimension be?”

The woman untied the veil, then, pointed at Mu Xijun who was near the campfire and slowly said, “actually, you have already felt it. You don’t need to ask me. Your power and her power all come from the laws of the four-dimensional s.p.a.ce. If you still can’t understand it, I can give you another example.

In a two-dimensional s.p.a.ce, we can draw a circle and then put a thing inside the circle. For the creatures that live in the two-dimensional s.p.a.ce, there is no way for them to take this thing out of the circle because the line around the circle is blocking them.

But when we use the extra dimension, the third dimension to take this thing away from above, the creatures in the two-dimensional s.p.a.ce will find that the thing inside the circle suddenly disappeared, and it will be impossible for them to understand what happened. Maybe their scientists will come up with the conjectures of the existence of higher dimensional s.p.a.ce, and maybe many myths and legends, even religions will be created based on that phenomenon.

Similarly, in the three-dimensional s.p.a.ce, we can’t take out the egg whites and egg yolks from the eggsh.e.l.ls without breaking it, but you can do it in the fourth-dimensional s.p.a.ce.”

“I think I can feel the fourth dimension you mentioned, but I can’t take the egg white and the egg yolk from the eggsh.e.l.l!” Chu Yunsheng said sternly.
