183. Fragment of the Deity

The old professor with white hair and beard leaned on a pear blossom wooden cane, squinting his eyes and carefully looking at the two people in front of him.

One of the young people was born with an elegant face and a good face, and he looked a lot like the sunny male protagonist in an idol drama. It's just that he is wearing a white coat, and if you look closely, you can see the blood stains on the hem of the clothes. The other person is a fat man of about 200 pounds.

These two were the ones they had just met.

The terrain here is so strange that the night sky is covered by tall trees, and it is so oppressive that you feel like you are walking in the belly of a monster.

Even with the human skin map in their hands, it was a bit nerve-wracking along the way, and it took a few efforts before they got out of the forest and found the right path.

No sooner had they come out of their front feet than the two men came out of another place.

To the old professor's surprise, the two young men didn't pay much attention to their expedition when they saw it.

The white coat just smiled, even if he said hello, he didn't mean to ask for help.

You must know that this forest can eat people, and few people will break into it by mistake, and it is a fantasy to go out without a map in hand.

The biggest taboo in doing their business is to bring people with them.

You have to know where they are going, but it is called a miracle.

Since ancient times, people's hearts have been unpredictable, and brothers can still fight to the death for family property, let alone strangers.

However, the old professor only hesitated slightly, and then stopped the two of them.

Perhaps he couldn't bear to watch this clean-smiling doctor go astray from the fat man, lost forever in this dark forest, and finally turned into dry bones and reduced to the nourishment of the forest.

As for how Jiang Bai and the fat man got here, everything has to start with that portal......

To put it simply, they went to the wrong door......

Who would have thought that after solving the problem of the village, the bronze gate that appeared was actually a passage to another dungeon, rather than a way back to the school.

It's hilarious.

It's like playing a game, clearing the first level and coming to the second level.

Just when the two of them couldn't figure out the north, they heard movement and happened to collide with the expedition.

"It's a pretty bad way. The fat man talked to the old professor familiarly.

"Of course, this is no ordinary road. ”

The old professor narrowed his cloudy yellow eyes and looked into the distance.

The gray-blue stone bricks are continuous, and the end of the road is boundless darkness, and the road seems to never end.

"Is there anything special about this road?" the fat man became more and more curious.

"Do you think there really are gods and ghosts in this world?" the old professor did not answer him, but smiled meaningfully.

"Maybe......" The fat man's face suddenly became a little bad, "Yes!"

Damn!Is it another supernatural copy?!

"Then what do you think is the origin of human beings?" the old professor's expression became even more unfathomable, "Or do you think that human beings are the great masterpieces of ghosts and gods, or have they evolved step by step in natural selection?"

"Darwin, in On the Origin of Species, mentioned the idea of 'evolution', which is one of the widely accepted hypotheses to date. ”

Jiang Bai suddenly interjected.

"What about you, which point of view do you agree with?" Jiang Bai smiled harmlessly.

"Actually, I don't know. The so-called science is just that. Human beings continue to discover laws in nature, then use them, and finally overturn them. ”

"In the realm of science, nothing is absolutely right, and likewise nothing is absolutely wrong. Some things may only be temporary, and the path of science is to constantly revise and improve in the process of exploration, leading people in the right direction. ”

It seemed that the doctor was very kind, and the old professor's conversation box was opened.

Indeed, the distinction between right and wrong is a bit narrow. The fat man nodded.

"Do you feel that at some critical point in history, humanity has developed too fast?

From the beginning of primitive society, human beings gradually began to use some 'tools', which created an essential difference between humans and lower animals.

Later, in the Paleolithic Age, the technology of artificial fire actually appeared, which is simply unimaginable. Not only did man discover the power of nature, but he also took control of it!

Especially in the past 100 years, the speed of human progress has even surpassed that of the past few thousand years, which is really terrifying!"

The old professor's pale face slowly turned rosy, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became, like a fanatical religious believer.

"Since the first industrial revolution, the development of human science seems to have broken through some kind of barrier. Jiang Bai said seriously, "The explosive progress is awe-inspiring. ”

The old professor suddenly raised his head and looked at the night sky, the sky was like a dark canvas, and a number of stars were dotted in different places around the moonlight. However, no one knows what secrets are hidden behind this shady scene.

"But is the exponential progress of science and technology really just the efforts of human beings themselves? Maybe there are really gods in this world, or maybe some other intelligent beings have helped human beings, investment or conspiracy......

In this world, there are many things that science cannot explain today, and they are far beyond our imagination.

What about you, why are you here?"

The old professor regained his former calm.

How do I know?

Jiang Bai slandered in his heart, but on the surface, he was a serious lie.

"The two of us are here for tourism. ”

"Tourism?"

The old professor's expression changed slightly, but he didn't say anything.

After a moment of silence, the old professor shook his head and said, "Then you better leave as soon as possible, this is for your own good." ”

I think so too!

The fat man nodded again and again in his heart, but how should he go?

Jiang Bai asked unhurriedly, "Why?"

"Remember what we just talked about? That's not speculation and fantasy, there really are a lot of things in this world that science can't explain. The old professor looked at the darkness at the end of the road, "At the end of this road, there is a mysterious apartment, and that apartment is not simple. ”

"Have you been to that apartment?" Jiang Bai smiled.

"No, I didn't.

It is a posthumous book called "Fragments of the Gods", which records this great miracle, and the hand-drawn map folder of the forest is hidden inside.

But herein lies the oddity of things.

No one knows who the author of the book is or when it appeared.

And that map is actually made of human skin!

This dark and dense forest is so evil that satellites in orbit cannot detect it, and any vehicle entering the forest will disappear as if it were sinking into the sea.

This forest seems to be a fictional space, which does not exist in the present world, and only by getting a map can one not get lost in it and find the real way to the apartment.

It's too late for you to leave, and though there's only one copy of the human skin map, my students can take you out of this dark forest. ”

The old professor said earnestly.

"Is the apartment really so dangerous?" the fat man was stunned.

"According to the Fragment of the Gods, this is a Yellow Spring Road, and it is a ghost path to hell, and walking on this road is equivalent to stepping into the ghost gate with half a foot!" said the old professor in a deep voice.

"The more you say that, the more we want to go there and have a look. Jiang Bai smiled sincerely.

"Well, then you can go with us, and take care of each other. The old professor suddenly stared at the young man, and his cloudy eyes actually shone with a fine light.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Suddenly visit the villa, Jiang Bai. ”
