Chapter 56: Mirror Parallelism
I'll go to your uncle's banana peel, why is he here? I just met him yesterday, and I almost strangled him to death, how did he turn into a zombie in one night's work?
Don't......
A possibility occurred to me, could it be... The noodle stall owner is a dead man, and all the townspeople we met when we entered the town were not human.
As soon as this thought came to me, even I myself was taken aback, and I thought to myself, how could this be possible, if they were not people, how could they be active in broad daylight without being affected at all? But if they're human, how do I explain what I'm seeing right now?
The owner of the noodle stall crossed the bridge with the corpses, but the people who followed me across the bridge were zombies, and he was still green-faced and fanged when he was on the other side of the bridge, so he could never be a person mixed in with the corpses. In this way, the noodle stall owner did turn into a zombie before crossing the bridge, but we just saw him during the day yesterday, although he looked a little strange, but he was indeed a human at that time, that is, he became a zombie, it should be after we left the noodle stall.
In such a short period of time, the noodle stall owner changed from a living person to a cold zombie, and was also brought into the corpse group by the old man who drove the corpse, what happened in this process? Who turned the noodle stall owner into a zombie? Is it an old man who chases corpses?
I still can't forget the corpses of people boiling in the soup pot of the noodle stall, and the noodle stall owner made noodles from the soup of the human corpse, and such a heinous act is deserved, and I will not have half sympathy for this. But what I can't understand now is what happened after we left, whether the old man was good or bad, and this bridge, this ruin, what the hell is this place?
Stone Bridge turns zombies into people, this strange power makes me curious, and at the same time a little frightened, these people with hole-in-the-eye eyes and dull faces, can they still be considered 'human'?
The 'people' who walked down from the stone bridge walked towards the ruins in a dull manner, watching their dull bodies disappear into the charred ruins, and the thought of following them suddenly flashed through my mind.
Of course, this is just a thought, although I am a very curious person, but also a timid person, these corpse creatures have all entered the ruins, and if you follow them, you may be able to find out the secrets, but this charred ruins looks extremely eerie, and it will definitely not be a good place to think, who knows what you will encounter if you follow up? At the moment, I am alone, I must not take this risk, compared to a small life, the secret hidden in the ruins is simply garbage, my life is gone, what is the use of knowing the secret?
Dispelling the idea of following, I waited a few more moments, and after making sure that no corpses were coming with me, I was just about to return to the bridge when something strange happened.
I had just taken a step towards the stone bridge, and the stone bridge seemed to have stepped back a little, and I thought I was dazzled, so I rubbed my eyes and took another step, and the stone bridge took another step back.
Now I was sure that I was absolutely not mistaken, and I couldn't help but be shocked, and suddenly lost my bearings, and ran towards the stone bridge. I ran towards the stone bridge, and the stone bridge retreated in the opposite direction, I was fast and it was slow, and no matter how much I tried to get closer, the stone bridge kept its initial distance from me until I was too tired to stop, and the stone bridge stopped moving.
I clutched my chest and gasped, my heart had sunk to the bottom, I already had an ominous premonition before crossing the bridge, but I never thought that I would encounter this situation, the stone bridge that I would never be able to catch up, doesn't this mean that I will never go back?
Looking at the stone bridge close at hand, I told myself in my heart not to panic, calm down, you must be calm. After reciting silently a few times, the panic and fear in my heart were slightly reduced, and my mind recovered from the chaos, I immediately thought of the red rope that the old man gave me, and looked down, fortunately, the red rope was still there, and it was not torn off because of the violent running just now, but the direction of the rope was a little wrong, and the rope actually extended from the ruins.
Holy, what's going on?
The stone bridge that was close at hand but had not been able to catch up was in front of me, and behind me was the blackened ruins, I clearly came down from the stone bridge, and the red rope was also brought here by me from the other end of the stone bridge, and it was said that the direction in which the rope pulled me should be the direction of the stone bridge, how could it be the opposite?
I don't know what happened, but the first thought that came to my mind at the moment was that everything I saw was an illusion, and the stone bridge that I had been unable to catch up with was an illusion created by something to make me lost, so I couldn't catch up.
This is the most plausible explanation, but I still don't understand, I haven't moved since I stepped off the stone bridge, and my eyes have been staring at the stone bridge, when did the hallucinations blind my eyes?
Although I am confused, these are not the point at the moment, and the most important thing now is to get out of here and meet the doctor.
Thinking about it, I was just about to turn around, when it suddenly occurred to me, when all of us tried to escape from the ancient town for the first time, the doctor and I did an experiment on the other side of the bridge, using a camera to capture the image on the other side of the bridge. At that time, the picture captured by the camera was the situation of our group on this side, including the camera itself, that is, the picture across the bridge captured by the camera was actually the picture from our side.
Some people suspect that there is a huge mirror behind the bridge, while others say that there is a world on the other side of the bridge that is exactly the same here, including people who are exactly like us. Later, we walked through the bridge and overturned these two possibilities, but from my current experience, the second speculation is not completely non-existent, if it is a mirror image plus parallelism, this is possible?
The so-called mirror world is actually a world that is basically the same as the real world, and it can be simply understood as the world in the mirror, that is, the reflection of this world. Because it is a mirror image, everything in this world is exactly the same as the real world on the outside, but the essence is the opposite.
It's like a person looking in a mirror, and the portrait in the mirror is reversed to the left and right. And mirror parallelism, that is, the things in the mirror and the things that exist in the real world are always parallel, just like a person who is not just on the plane of the mirror, you take a step towards him, he has to take a step back in order to keep the mirror parallel to you, the two sides will always face each other and stare at each other, but no matter what efforts you make, the two will never get along with each other, and always maintain this specific distance.
If it's really a mirror parallel, then everything can be explained.
