Chapter 148: Infinite Space

The sharpness of the rainbow was undoubted, and it easily left a finger-long crack on the ground.

But such a small crack was obviously not very in line with Lou Lan's wishes, and with a twist of her right hand, she turned it on the ground again, expanding the narrow crack into a big hole.

The crack, which had been inconspicuous in this way, suddenly became conspicuous, and it was impossible to see it from a distance, but it was definitely visible within three meters of approaching it.

Then Lou Lan pulled up the rainbow again and walked forward again.

Yes, she's just making a mark. It's not just about doubting the reason you're walking around where you are.

What is it exactly?

The thin lips hooked an arc, and Lou Lan chuckled, he should know soon.

After all, her patience is not very good. And that person shouldn't be much better.

Keep going, as carefully as ever. One and a half meters, never more steps.

One is for safety, and the other is to measure the distance you have traveled.

Soon, forty steps had been taken.

Forty steps, half a meter each, that was a total of twenty meters, ten meters more than the first time she walked. Lou Lan stood still, her expression unchanged, but she felt a faint chill in her heart.

No, she didn't find it.

There were no edges, no markings she had just made, neither of which she had seen!

There are only two possible explanations for this.

One is that the place she is in now is very large, and even after walking thirty meters in a row, she has not reached the edge. The second is that she may not be walking in a straight line at all.

When humans walk with their eyes closed, it is generally impossible to walk in a straight line, but a roughly circular trajectory. This is caused by the inconsistency of the size of the person's feet and the footsteps. Generally speaking, most people always take a larger step on their right foot than on their left foot.

When we open our eyes, we constantly fine-tune our walking route to make it a straight line based on the reference objects we see in our eyes. But when you close your eyes, you can't play this adjustment function even if you go to the reference. At this time, people always feel that they are walking in a straight line, so they let their feet move forward naturally, and the end result is that people involuntarily deviate to the left.

When people walk in the suburbs in the dark night, it is also very easy to walk out of a large circle path, which is the real principle of the phenomenon called "ghost hitting the wall" in the folk. This phenomenon can occur not only in humans, but also in other animals.

The environment Lou Lan is in now is actually no different from walking with her eyes closed.

With visibility of only three meters, she has no creature to act as a "guide". So it is very likely that she just walked thirty meters in a big circle in the same place.

And it was precisely because of this that Lou Lan felt chills in her heart.

What the hell happened to her, even if she was not a particularly cautious person, but in such a dark environment, her partners suddenly disappeared, and her first choice was not to wait in the car for a while, but to come out directly.

There was no planning at all, and he came out with his sword, as if, after waking up. Her brain's thinking pattern was completely different from usual.

And that weird headache. Even when I was at the gas station before, my mental power was so exhausted that I was about to faint, it didn't hurt as much as I did today, and now I think about it. What a strange sudden pain at that time. It's like someone has smashed a hammer directly on the brain.

The more you think about it, the more bizarre it is.

Lou Lan's face became more and more difficult to look at.

She didn't go any further. Instead, take a closer look at your surroundings. Not surprisingly, nothing could be seen, only a thick inky darkness shrouded in the distance.

But this time. In addition to the darkness, Lou Lan still found something different.

Mist.

Yes, wisps of white mist drifting through the air.

Originally, white and black should be incompatible, but in such a completely dark night, even the pure white fog blended perfectly into the environment, and even Lou Lan could only see it clearly when he looked closely.

But you can't blame Lou Lan. It was still unclear whether there was fog in the darkness in the distance, and the fog within three meters of her began to gradually thin, and the closer it got closer, the thinner it became, and when it was close to the surface of her body, it was almost invisible.

No, it's not.

Lou Lan suddenly reacted, even if it was a white mist, it must not be seen in absolute darkness, why did she see it now? And why is her visual range three meters, and in the absence of a light source, shouldn't she be able to reach out and see her fingers?

Don't......

Lou Lan raised his hand, and it was clear that he could see the palm prints on his hand without coming to his eyes.

So everything is clear.

It's not that her visual range is three meters away, but that she herself is the light source, so she can naturally see her surroundings clearly. In this way, it is natural to be able to see the disgust floating around you.

That's only because she's a luminary herself.

So here's the problem.

In the darkness where you can't see your fingers, and you don't know what danger is, you are the only source of light, so what will happen next?

Lou Lan's face finally changed.

The mist in the air was still drifting in wisps, constantly rushing towards her luminous body, and quickly dissipated when it touched the surface of her skin.

It seems so harmless.

But that's just what the surface shows, like this pitch black environment, which looks so calm on the surface, who knows what's buried underneath.

A palm-sized spatial crack finally appeared on Lou Lan's left hand, with a faint flash of silver light, and a flashlight appeared in her hand in the next second.

Now that it's a light source, it's okay to add a little more light.

Pushing the switch on the flashlight, a blinding light suddenly appeared in front of him. Her pupils constricted, and Lou Lan raised her hand uncomfortably to cover her eyes, waiting for a while before she could get used to the sudden light.

Wolf Eye Boxer 24W-168R, a flashlight with LED technology. Advanced tactical flashlight, up to 1800 lumens, illuminating the target at night can temporarily blind the target for 3 minutes. And the size is small, the length is 11 cm, and it is made of aviation aluminum, which is very convenient to carry when climbing and camping, and the direct irradiation distance is 350 meters

The brightness is strong, very concentrated, short and concise, and easy to carry. These three characteristics are the reasons why Lou Lan chose it, although the price is also relatively expensive, but compared to those outdoor flashlights that break if you don't understand it, this is undoubtedly the best choice.

However, unexpectedly, even such a powerful flashlight as a cluster of spotlights illuminates the darkness ahead. But it still can't illuminate far. Up to two meters more visibility than before.

It's as if the excess light has been absorbed by the darkness around it.

Lou Lan's face was ugly, she handed the flashlight to her right hand, took out the other two flashlights from the space, and turned them on together. She didn't believe in it.

But obviously. The reality is brutal.

The three wolftooth flashlights are turned on together. The brightness of the surrounding light has reached a frightening level, almost compared to a giant shaped lamp, especially when three lights shine together in one place.

But. Still didn't work. This time, even the visibility area has not improved in the slightest.

Lou Lan looked ugly and stuffed the other two flashlights back into the space, leaving only one. She glanced up at the sky, and unsurprisingly saw nothing, thinking that the moonlight was obscured by dark clouds. Now it seems that there is no "sky" at all, and it has always been pitch black above her head.

At this time, Lou Lan was like being in a huge sealed box.

She is the only one in the box, there is no light source, she is the light source. There is no living being, she is the only living being.

But why?

Lou Lan sat down slowly, seeing that her expression had calmed down. But it was just an expression, and her mind was still calculating and thinking.

Why did she wake up and she was the only one in the car?

Why did the car suddenly stop in such a strange place? And what happened in the meantime?

The door locks of the cars were not closed, but Lou Lan clearly remembered that Tong Le locked them when he was driving, so as to prevent the zombies from accidentally opening the door. So, who unlocked the car door?

And the most important question is, is this "box" natural or artificial?

If it's naturally occurring, that's good news. But if it's artificial......

What is his purpose, and what is the extent of his power, to create such a "trap".

One problem after another kept emerging, and Lou Lan only felt that her head hurt. Now she doesn't know where she is, she doesn't know where they have gone, and she doesn't know how to overcome her current predicament.

The only way to do this is to keep moving. But this is also the stupidest and most suggestive approach.

Walking around requires physical strength, although walking on flat ground does not consume too much, but there is always a moment when it is exhausted after a long period of accumulation. If this "box" is artificially made, and if Lou Lan is this person.

If you think about it, she will also let the prey go on like this, constantly consuming the prey's physical strength, and finally "eating" the prey without any effort.

However, there is no other way to go but this way.

Lou Lan smiled bitterly, this is all the roads have been directly blocked.

She slowly got up from the ground, the Liuhong Sword landed on the ground, and with a force in her hand, she drew a deep trace on the smooth ground, and Lou Lan's heart suddenly moved.

In fact, it can be seen from the material of this ground that it is extraordinary, but before Lou Lan seemed to be fascinated, he didn't find it at all.

The palm of my hand touched it, and there was a cold feeling. But it is not a material in any memory at all, not marble, not an ordinary bluestone slab, but a smooth jade-like material, milky white, and the hardness does not look high.

Lou Lan took out a dagger from the space and gently swiped on it, easily drawing a trace.

She carefully dug a piece with a dagger, but when the milky white stone reached her hand, it immediately turned black, like the petals of a flower withered.

I tried a few more pieces, and the results were without exception

How bizarre.

Frowning, in the end, Lou Lan still received them into the space, planning to study them later. She wasn't afraid of what threat this bizarre "floor" would pose to the space.

For her space, Lou Lan is a god, and what threatens her can be wiped out with just one thought.

God says there can be no evil here, and then there should be no evil.

Standing up again, he shoved the dagger back into space as well. Lou Lan thought about it for a while, and finally decided to walk forward first, it was useless to stay where he was.

Even if it consumes her physical strength, it is a trap, and Lou Lan has only one way to go now.

But she can't just move forward unprepared, like herself who was stunned not long ago, and now she can't help but spit when she thinks about it, she is really fascinated by the "ghost".

Forcefully inserting the tip of Liuhong's sword into the ground, Lou Lan dragged the long sword to cut a long crack in the ground as she walked. The crack stretched with her steps.

This will undoubtedly consume more physical strength than simply walking, but this is a stupid method that Lou Lan came up with.

There were no signs, no guidance, so she created one herself.

The long crack is the path she has walked, and I don't know the extent of this "box" now, but if she has been spinning in place, then in the near future, she will inevitably see the starting point she drew again.

And if she hasn't seen it all the time, then it means that the place she is in is really "infinite".

At that time, Lou Lan will begin to seriously think about the probability that she can run out.

But now it's better to try it first, people always have to have a dream, what if it comes true?

Lou Lan soothed herself in her heart while dragging Liuhong forward.

The metal sword rubbed against the ground, but it didn't make the slightest sound, as if it wasn't a stone but just tofu. In the wide space, the only sound source was the footsteps of Lou Lan, which constantly echoed in the empty space.

I don't know how long I've been walking, and Lou Lan has no specific concept of time. She also didn't have any equipment to record time, and the only watch that Pang Qiu gave was given to Lu Jing, plus the darkness around her was as dark as ever, making it impossible to know the passage of time.

The environment around her has not changed, including the rifts she has scratched on the ground.

She even took medicine once.

Things finally came to the point where Lou Lan was most reluctant to admit - this place, it is really "infinite".

What is the concept of "infinity"?

No borders, no limits. There was once such a sentence in "Han Feizi": "If the appetite is infinite and the movement is uncontrolled, it will be empty and acne, and the claws and horns will harm it." "There are a lot of indices, but they are also very broad.

To put it more bluntly, "infinite" refers to something that has no limit in space and time, and has no beginning or end. (To be continued.) )
