Chapter 19: Liu's Villa (3)

In Tang Juyi's reminder, it took the four of them a long time to understand the extra part of the information in their minds. It wasn't until Tang Juyi was a little sleepy that the young man with glasses was the first to wake up from the shock.

"I don't know if I'm right - were we artificially sent to this place by some special means to carry out some so-called mission?"

The young man with glasses said this in a very uncertain tone.

Tang Juyi nodded noncommittally, but he didn't mean to improve.

The girl in the white shirt also said in a tone of disbelief:

"That's incredible, isn't it? I remember that I was still in an Internet cafΓ© before, how could I suddenly be sent here? ”

Tang Juyi on the side said lazily:

"I think the information that comes out of our heads is more terrifying than that, isn't it? The premise is completely counterintuitive like a sci-fi movie - character states, mission panels, these are all things that only seem to be in games, right? ”

As soon as Tang Juyi said this, the hip-hop boy who had been silent also showed a look of sudden realization:

"Eh, do you think we're part of a high-tech virtual game? It's like in the movie, implant a chip or something in your brain, and then your consciousness can enter the virtual world! ”

Tang Juyi shook his head:

"I'd rather believe that I'm not just here than my consciousness, but my body."

The hip-hop boy scratched his head and realized that what Tang Juyi said seemed to have some truth.

The chick in the long skirt said in a trembling voice:

"What kind of villa is that...... Isn't it haunted? ”

When everyone heard this, they also moved their eyes to her.

The young man with glasses frowned, obviously also making a judgment:

"Personally, I think it's more like a horror game in another sense, except that the game has changed from virtual to real, and we are like characters in a horror game, we have to complete the tasks according to the prompts, and the game also explains a certain background."

Tang Juyi was a little surprised, because the conjecture of the young man in front of him was conceptually very close to the actual situation of the extradimension, but it was not perfect enough in some details.

After pondering for a while, Tang Juyi still decided to help these four people improve their thinking, so he also spoke:

"You should remember the giant you called the Emissary in the first place, right?"

Everyone, including the young man with glasses, remembered something, and there was a taste of fear in his eyes.

"Judging by what the [messenger] said, we must have encountered some kind of supernatural phenomenon that we could not understand, and we were forced into a world very different from the one we were in."

The young man with glasses was stunned for a moment, and then he also understood something:

"Something like a parallel space?"

Tang Juyi spread his hands, looking very helpless:

"How do I know? That's just what I guessed. ”

And in his heart, Tang Juyi's opinion of the young man in front of him has been raised a little higher.

The white-shirted girl struggled to digest the conversation between Tang Juyi and the young man with glasses, and also asked:

"So what are we going to do? Continue here and wait for someone to come and save us, or do you want to walk around? ”

The young man with glasses appeared very decisive:

"No one will come to save them."

Hip-hop teenagers don't seem to have figured out the situation yet:

"Why? There's no reason no one knows about this kind of car accident, right? Just contact someone out thereβ€”"

Tang Juyi sneered:

"Do you have a cell phone?"

The hip-hop boy was stunned for a moment, touched his pocket, and then stubbornly said:

"Let's look around, maybe we'll find someone else to help us?"

Tang Juyi shook his head:

"Don't realize yet? As soon as we entered the world of the Willow Villa, all our processes had already been arranged, as if a director was manipulating everything behind the scenes, so that we could only develop according to the established script. ”

"From the overturning of the bus at the beginning, to the fire and explosion after escaping from the bus, one link after another, it is to cut off our back road - in other words, it is to make us have no way out but to go to Naliu Villa."

Tang Juyi stretched out his hand and pointed to a very conspicuous stone step road not far from everyone:

"Like that stone staircase mountain path is a very obvious hint, almost explicitly telling us that we can go to the Naliu Villa by walking."

"If my guess is correct, no matter what we choose, we will end up in the Liu's Villa, and we will not be able to find any help from outsiders, let alone any communication equipment."

When Tang Juyi finished saying these words, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at him.

The young man with glasses said solemnly:

"Brother, how do you know so clearly?"

didn't choose to hide it anymore, Tang Juyi said calmly:

"Because I've been in a situation that's very similar to what I am now."

The chick in the long skirt who has been listening to the clouds and fog is also eager to say when she hears this:

"Then tell us how to escape!"

Tang Juyi glanced at her:

"How do you escape? The mission description makes it clear - you can escape after completing the objective, and before that, you can't escape! ”

Hearing this, the girl fell to the ground as if she had lost her soul, and then began to sobb uncontrollably.

Now, Tang Juyi has also given up the idea of letting these four people reason and think on their own, and directly assumed the role of the backbone:

"Let me explain to you, we are currently in a special game, and you can interpret the punishment for failure in the game as death."

"In this game, we have to follow the rules of the game at all times, and most of those rules are written in those six prompts. Now that you've been informed about the game's background from the start, it's all you have to do is play your part in the game and look for a chance to survive. ”

The hip-hop boy probably understood what Tang Juyi meant, but there were still many incomprehensions:

"Play your part?"

Tang Juyi nodded and looked at everyone:

"According to the setting, we are a group of 'adventurous young people', and we came to the so-called Liu's Villa to find out the truth about the haunted incident. In other words, the events that follow are all carried out in this identity and context. ”

Speaking of this, Tang Juyi also said solemnly:

"If anyone is going to go his own way and try to find a way out of the way without heeding the advice, I can almost guarantee that he will not survive the first day."

"Another ......"

Tang Juyi looked up at the ancient buildings in the mountains in the distance, and his tone revealed deep worry:

"It's getting close to evening, and we've been here long enough...... If we don't reach the Nayanagi Lodge on the first day, we may encounter some extremely bad conditions in the forest. ”

The girl in the long skirt, who had been sobbing quietly, also raised her head with tears in her eyes:

"What...... What's not good? ”

Tang Juyi sighed and pointed to his head:

"Isn't it obvious that the hint given in the hint is - ghosts, ghosts! If I'm not mistaken, the nine ghost requests will come within these nine days, and this first day is almost over. ”

A hip-hop teenager jumped up directly from the ground, his face full of fear:

"So what are you waiting for! Run! ”

Obviously, this young man said the truest thoughts in everyone's hearts, because when Tang Juyi said the word "ghost", all the people sitting on the ground had already stood up.

Surprisingly, Tang Juyi only pointed out the mountain road leading to the depths of the mountains and forests to everyone, but he had no intention of leaving:

"In that case, you should follow the mountain path to the Liu's Villa first, and I'll follow you later."

The young man with glasses was stunned:

"What about you? Didn't you say that this game wouldn't set up other escape possibilities? ”

Tang Juyi asked rhetorically:

"Can you see the path next to the mountain road?"

The young man in glasses turned his head, and sure enough, he found an inconspicuous path among the bushes beside the stone steps, and the grass and trees on it had been trampled on repeatedly to reveal the bare ground, which continued to lead to a certain place.

Unlike the stone staircase, which has a clear direction, it is not possible to know where the trail leads from the general direction, so it is more frightening from the unknown.

"I'm curious as to why such a path exists when the path to the Willow Villa has been clearly indicated, and it gives people a choice between choosing or not choosing."

Tang Juyi smiled easily, and also expressed his opinion:

"Now that I've decided to play my part, I can't turn a blind eye when I see such a path, but it's too wasteful to act together, so it's better for me to do it."

The girl in the white t-shirt was worried:

"Aren't you in any danger alone?"

Tang Juyi waved his hand and walked straight towards the rugged path:

"Don't worry, according to the hint of the rules of the game, there must be a certain clue as a warning before danger appears...... And I am more sensitive to this warning than any of you. ”

"If there's a danger that I'll die defenseless, then you'll all end up coming with you the same, so don't waste your time, see you at the Lodge."

As the last word fell, Tang Juyi's figure also disappeared into the dense woods.
