In this paper,we mainly study the phenomenon of time-travel in the network literature.With the "time-travel novel" constantly being produced and consumed,"time-travel" has become an important topic in the network literature and has aroused the widespread concern in academic circles.From the existing research results,they mainly study the novel from the perspective of typological literature and study the significance and value of it as a type of novel.This paper will re-understand time-travel from the angle of narrative and interpret it as a way of telling stories.Discussing the narrative features and revealing the social and cultural connotation behind the "time-travel".Firstly,different from the general view of "time-travel" as a type of literature,this paper regards it as a way of telling stories.By tracing the phenomenon of"time-travel”in network literature,it can be found that "time-travel" has already broken through the limitation of the type of literature.It becomes a kind of narrative method that spans many network novels.As a narrative method,it has some connection with the "crossing" in traditional literature,and presents some different characteristics.Secondly,as a narrative approach,the time-travel narrative has unique artistic characteristics."Time-travel" mainly adopts the way of time and space to break the order of time and space and the logic of culture.And it produces a collage story."Time-travel”is the "golden finger" that has the function of breaking the narrative rules.This function can break the fixed story structure to make the story a variety of trends."Time-travel" is a common technique to enhance the "feeling of projection" of the story.By "time-travel",the reader can establish a connection with the characters,the environment and the story in the process of reading.As a result,they can easily engage themselves in reading and get fun out of it.Finally,as the method of "time-travel",it is related to the mental symptoms of the Internet culture.Time-travel narrative is a narrative method that the people write literature with the entertainment mentality.They passed through the techniques of collage and parody to deconstruct the classic literature,in order to chase an offensive style of pleasure.At the same time,time-travel narrative also reflects that the people,especially the younger generation,go beyond the realistic imagination.Unfortunately,this kind of transcendence cannot escape from the prison of ideology,and can only be the expression of the real desire.
