The original text is: Time is like quicksand, flowing through the ups and downs of life, time is like running water, flowing through vicissitudes, washing away lead, which means that time will always pass like quicksand at the fingertips, from "It's really the end of time".

The author of "It's the End of Time" compares the peerless elegance of Neptune sumo to quicksand at the fingertips, and precipitates the vicissitudes into words, slowly rendering the ups and downs of sumo characters in the novel.
