Chapter 200: The Cave
Facing He Manzhou's surprised gaze, Bai Yicong responded to these questions very simply.
"Yes, and more than that. ”
Then, he frowned slightly, and his tone became more subdued.
"Now that the facts have developed, no matter how nonsensical they may be, or how ridiculous they may be answered, they will become inevitable in the face of the only possibility of the conclusion being deduced. In other words, it may be difficult to understand why the high priest of the ancient kingdom of Loulan made such a decision at the critical moment of the prayer ceremony, but since the result is predetermined, as long as the motive behind the high priest's decision is reversed, it is the key to solving the whole mystery of the ancient kingdom of Loulan. ”
These words are not difficult to understand, even if Bai never says them, He Manzhou also coincides with his thinking.
After the initial trance of immersion in the illusion faded, He Manzhou also sorted out his thoughts more clearly when he told Bai Yicong about what he saw and thought, and even carried out a wave of self-liberation by the way. Miss He has never been a person who is afraid of things, since she has to find a way to deal with things, and the set of doing nothing is not used, except for inspiring a little open-mindedness of "the sky will descend on the people", there is no other way at the moment.
According to He Manzhou's thinking, is it useful to be depressed now, if sitting still can solve the problem, let the little princess of Loulan stop here, and let Lao He, who is uncertain about life and death, go home safely, then she can immediately book two tickets to Z City, and go home directly with Bai Yicong holding hands and enjoying a romantic love time, if there is such a good thing, she would still like it.
However, the hidden danger of the ancient country of Loulan is here, how can it be solved because she is a deserter?
Although He Manzhou didn't know who the blue eyes that were sleeping in her sea of consciousness belonged to, it was the will of the Holy Maiden of the Ancient Kingdom of Loulan or the remnants of the Black Holy Maiden, or the gods admired by thousands of believers. Even more extreme, the question that can't be explained and can't be understood may just be the sequelae left by the repeated illusion, and the continuous strong stimulation has brought He Manzhou some kind of indescribable stress response, so that her cognitive ability has been deviated.
Even if He Manzhou suddenly realized that all this was an illusion in the end, she would not be unable to accept it, at most, she felt that she had some convulsions, and she needed to take out a period of time to recuperate and adjust her mental state, so as not to really get paranoia.
But before that, on a case-by-case basis, He Manzhou actually felt that the question was quite reasonable.
"Do you want to continue to run away from it today?"
So, why did you choose to run away? Whatever the cause of these things was, and what the person who chose to run away from did in the first place. Since it is destined that these things in the ancient kingdom of Loulan are about to end, the key to the mystery needs He Manzhou to solve, how could she choose to be a deserter?
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and find a way to solve it.
These thoughts turned and turned in He Manzhou's heart, and she quickly cleaned up those messy thoughts and analyzed them according to Bai Yicong's train of thought.
"Then what is the high priest's motive, and how can we find out the truth?"
"Caves. ”
When giving the answer, Bai Yi curled his fingertips slightly and unhurriedly buckled a few times on the solid wood tabletop.
This is Bai Yicong's unique habit when thinking about problems, most of the time he is determined and confident, as if any thorny problem will be solved in front of Bai Yicong, and he will not even frown. But everyone is a mortal, there will always be times when they are in trouble, for example, when Bai Yicong feels upset, he will subconsciously make this small action to distract too much thinking, force himself to calm down, and come up with enough organization to analyze the problem.
Under He Manzhou's careful observation, most of Bai Yicong's "upset" is related to her, and the emotions in it are probably inseparable from the headache and helplessness, even if she is angry, she is reluctant to kill her, so there is only irritability left with nowhere to put it.
But now analyzing the problems of the ancient country of Loulan, what is Bai Yicong anxious about?
Combined with this moment of Bai Yicong's silence, He Manzhou only felt that his heart was cold for most of the time, and his natural optimism became not good enough at this moment. Her analytical ability was running rapidly, and after thinking about theory and practice, the only conclusion she came to was that the severity of the problem at the moment had made Bai Yi, who was usually calm, unable to figure out anything.
"What cave," He Manzhou hurriedly sorted out his thoughts and asked with a focused point, "Is the truth hidden in that cave?"
"Yes, you're right, it's the cave that you see in the illusion that often appears. Whether it is the Black Saint and the crystal coffin, or even the final prayer ceremony, they are inseparable from that mysterious cave. We don't know much about the little princess of Loulan, not to mention what kind of risks will be faced on the way to find the "goddess's suit", even if we really collect the five holy relics, what to do next is unknown...... It's obviously too passive to just stand still. ”
"So, what are we going to do?"
Hearing this, He Manzhou felt a little worried, and the little face that couldn't hide his joy, anger and sorrow sank immediately, without hiding the sorrow between his eyebrows and eyes. There is no other reason, and the problem that Bai Yicong said is the crux of her understanding.
But what can be done just to know the crux of the problem, and the problem must be solved?
Not to mention whether everything in the illusion can be taken seriously, even if there is really such a cave in this world, there is no clue at all, she and Bai Yicong are staring at each other here, and they can't find the exact location of the cave, it's not difficult.
"Being pushed forward in the middle of the game is nothing more than falling into the trap of others, taking a wrong step and making a wrong step, and finally unable to jump out of the mystery. If you want to find out the secrets hidden in the ancient kingdom of Loulan, you have to go here in person, perhaps only by finding out the secrets of the ancient kingdom of Loulan can you find the flaws in the little princess and stop this revenge that will destroy the world. ”
"No, Bai Yicong, it's useless to talk about this now...... And I think that cave is not the place we saw in Zhaohui Mountain, which means that we don't have the slightest clue now, how should we check this?"
Bai Yicong lifted his eyelids, his gaze swept lightly over He Manzhou, as if he was considering something, and after a little hesitation, he opened his mouth unhurriedly.
"It's not that there isn't a clue at all. ”
"What...... What?"
He Manzhou carefully touched the meaning of Bai Yicong's words, and his eyes were fixed on him.
And Bai Yicong is also thinking about the past.
For example, the secrets buried in that stormy night, the intricate and twisted murals on the dark stone walls of the cave, the cold eyes of the gods suddenly opened, and the secrets of the mysterious mutineer of the Bai family in the conversations that stopped. Another example is the strange experience between him and He Sheng.
Bai Yixian has always deliberately avoided these things, and has not mentioned them openly and honestly to He Manzhou, firstly, he has not received accurate answers to many things, and he will not tell those unconfirmed information to mislead He Manzhou to a certain extent. Second, as the illusion He Manzhou told became more and more profound, Bai Yicong remembered more and more details, and he felt more and more tricky to deal with these things, and many words were in a dilemma, and he couldn't say it.
If how Manzhou is really the container that the little princess of Loulan wants to wake up, she is destined to have a vital position in the revenge of the survivors of the ancient kingdom of Loulan.
As He Manzhou approached the mysterious place where the god was buried, it was destined to cause some impact, perhaps the gap between the illusory mirage and reality was broken, or perhaps the evil god of destruction enshrined in the ancient kingdom of Loulan was awakened, either of which was enough to force the little princess of Loulan to take new measures, and the secrets she hid were also revealed.
This was the most crucial step in Princess Loulan's plan, and it was also the turning point of the whole conspiracy.
When both parties weighed each other and stood still, Bai Yi never saw her plan, but whenever the little princess made a move, the tight layout would inevitably reveal some clues, and this was also the opportunity that Bai Yi had been waiting for. Bai Yicong knew what a winning move was, not only about the competition for the "goddess's suit", or the weird cave where the mysterious formation was hidden, but even the person next to the little princess of Loulan - Bai Yicong found the clues in his early years, the mutineer of the Bai family.
If you want to investigate these things, you have to go with the flow.
But when it really came to a critical juncture, Bai Yi never dared to gamble with He Manzhou. And probably because of the chaos of concern, Bai Yi is not worried about his safety from this moment, all his worries are afraid of what he will do if he can't protect He Manzhou, and what if he really puts his beloved girl in danger?
Such concerns involved Bai Yicong's thoughts, and people who were usually transparent and rational suddenly had a weakness, and they were not so straightforward and decisive.
If you can carry everything for He Manzhou, Bai Yixian will never talk nonsense, but how can it?
If He Manzhou didn't go, how could he open the Tower of Babel that summoned a mirage and crack the hidden secrets of the ancient kingdom of Loulan?
The situation has already put everything here, and there is no room for Bai Yicong to reverse it, all he can do is to deal with it. Therefore, the information about this trip is all squeezed in Bai Yicong's heart, including but not limited to He Manzhou is the pawn of the little princess of Loulan, and she is the container that carries all this, and she represents a certain degree of disaster and turnaround.
These words are not mentioned, nor are they not mentioned, and they are in a dilemma.
But to this day, it is not an option to continue to talk about what happened in that cave. It's just that to what extent can he be said, how to make He Manzhou aware of the danger, so that he can protect himself in the next period of time, and not think too much about what he has and doesn't have, and add unnecessary worries and pressure, is a problem after all.
After thinking about it for a while, Bai Yicong finally opened his mouth lightly.
"Xiaozhou, haven't you always wanted to know the clues about your father's disappearance?"
