Chapter 312: Setting

The next day came in.

On the small dirt slope at the back of the village, two tombstones were erected, one for the female doctor and the other for the grandmother, and two next to each other.

The female doctor's tombstone is buried behind her ashes, and the grandmother can only bury a reading glasses that she liked very much before her death because the corpse disappeared, as a kind of support and thought.

On a small dirt slope, the sun has just risen. The light of the early morning sprinkled softly over the earth, and this was the third morning they had stayed. It was also their last morning, and they had to leave by about nine o'clock in three days.

Now, the time is almost up, and the two are on the dirt slope, looking into the distance hand in hand. The villages, the fields, the blue sky and the white clouds are still the same.

"It's beautiful." Tong Xiaolai said.

"Hmm." Xia Yuxuan also thinks so.

"It's time. Xia Yuxuan, let's go. ”

"Hmm. Let's go......"

Gradually, the light of the sun blurred their eyes, blurred their vision, and everything in front of them began to fade away little by little, until they could not see each other, could not see anything, but they still held each other's hands tightly, and in this way began to detach themselves from the world in the painting......

After the two of them left, what they didn't know was that everything in the painting was set, and from now on, everything should be reset as originally set......

After a brief period of loss of control and darkness, they couldn't tell what was going on, only that their minds were blank and confused.

Eventually, their consciousness came out of the painting and swooped back into their bodies.

When consciousness returned, they gradually opened their eyes, held hands, and struggled to sit up from the bed.

The two of them covered their heads, but their heads were drowsy.

"Engong, madam, you are awake!" Seeing the two wake up, a group of girls happily gathered around.

Although Tong Xiaolai's head was a little drowsy, his sanity and consciousness had regained and he quickly recognized them.

"Aren't you just ......" Aren't they the failed works of demons that they rescued from the cave, Tong Xiaolai remembered.

"Childe, Madam, you have finally woken up, which makes us so worried."

"Yes, it's good that you're back, it's almost a day and a night, I thought you wouldn't be back."

"Childe, Madam, tell me quickly, what's the situation inside, has the key been taken out?"

“……”

Girls, you and I are there to ask one by one, and I can't wait to know the answer.

"I'm fine, I'm worried about you." Being able to see them means that they have successfully come out, and Tong Xiaolai is also very happy.

"Xia Yuxuan, how is it, is there anything uncomfortable?" Tong Xiaolai said worriedly.

This trip, Xia Yuxuan is very important, and Tong Xiaolai feels more and more that he can't leave her.

"I'm fine." Xia Yuxuan didn't want him to worry too much.

Tong Xiaolai was relieved to see that she was indeed fine.

"Oh, yes, the key!" When the key was mentioned just now, Tong Xiaolai remembered it and hurriedly went to find the key. As soon as he raised his hand, the key was in his hand.

"Whew, great, finally got the key!" Tong Xiaolai has to say that this key is not easy to come by.

"Childe, tell me what happened inside, and how did you find the key?"

"Uh-huh, yes, yes, yes......" the girls were expecting.

"Since you want to know, I might as well tell you." Tong Xiaolai made a long story short, told them everything, and told them his sadness and regret.

"It's a pity that they all died and didn't end up with a good ending." Tong Xiaolai said regretfully.

"Childe, don't be sad, don't be sad, none of them are dead. They don't die. A girl said.

"Uh-huh." The rest of the girls nodded.

"What do you mean by that?!" Tong Xiaolai was immediately touched and anxiously asked.

"Don't worry, son, listen to us." The girl said. After listening to their explanations, Tong Xiaolai knew that there was another truth!

It turns out that the world in the painting is similar to theirs, but it is very different!

The biggest difference is that this is a place with limited time, limited space, limited background, and repeatability.

Time is limited, it is only three days.

The space is limited, but there are four walls inside, that is, the edge of the painting, and it is impossible to break through inside. The walls are scattered all around the smoky hills. The village is surrounded by mountains, with only one village in the middle, and everything in it is in a limited space.

Limited background means that there are limits to the background of the relationship between the characters. The initial limit of the relationship between the characters in it is: the village is infected with the plague, many people have died, one of the patients found out that the female doctor is sick, because he was afraid and began to run away, the female doctor and the villagers did not know the truth, the female doctor in order to save him, sent volunteers to the mountains to chase the escaped villagers.

This is the original set of character relationships and story backgrounds, and Tong Xiaolai and they started with this background.

When Tong Xiaolai and the others have not yet entered the painting, the time in it is static, the people and the picture are also static, and the female doctor and the villagers are frozen in the form of chasing on the mountain. Only when someone enters will the time flow inside, starting with this setting.

Therefore, the moment they enter the painting, the painting comes alive, and still time begins to flow.

The state of chasing on the mountain started running, and everything began like this.

Therefore, when Tong Xiaolai enters, he will have the illusion that time is always flowing, but it is not.

Repeatable, meaning that the world inside is recyclable. When Tong Xiaolai and the others left the painting, they didn't know that time stood still again, and everything returned to the original set appearance, frozen in the form of chasing on the mountain, like a one-button reset.

Until the next time someone enters, time flows again and everything inside starts all over again. It's like a game that can be repeated over and over again. The person who enters can influence the outcome inside, thus determining the success or failure of the mission.

People who fail will disappear forever because they are not in the set background, and their bodies will become vegetative because they are unconscious. It wasn't until after the girls' explanations that Tong Xiaolai knew this.

Also, there were no rumors there at all, and there were no other villages, and the rumors that the so-called sickness woke up every three hundred years were memories set in their minds. In the same way, drinking water from a well, some people are sick, and some people are not sick, also because of the setting, from the very beginning, some people are not sick.

During the period of stillness, the person inside does not feel anything, does not perceive the anomaly, and when they start over, they forget the past over and over again. Therefore, when Tong Xiaolai and Xia Yuxuan leave, the female doctor will be resurrected, the female doctor will forget them, and everything in the village will start over and be frozen there.

Despite knowing this, Tong Xiaolai was not happy, Tong Xiaolai did not know whether it was joy or sorrow. Because even if the female doctor is resurrected, it is a tragedy, and her tragedy will never end.

Tong Xiaolai got out of bed, came to the door, and looked at the painting sadly.

"She'll forget about us. It's a pity......" Tong Xiaolai said, stroking the painting.

"yes, that's a pity." Xia Yuxuan also said beside him.

The female doctor, the sick, the village, everything is in front of you, everything is so within reach, but everything is so powerless.

Tong Xiaolai looked at the painting, as if they had entered the painting again, into the forest, the female doctor and the volunteer were running after the patient on the mountain, they met again, Tong Xiaolai and Xia Yuxuan looked at her like an old friend, and she forgot who they were......

"Childe, don't be too sad, she's just the person in the painting, this is her fate." The girls came and said.

"It turns out that there is really a fate? Is this her fate? unwilling to fate, but defeated by fate. Repeating herself infinitely in a painting, healing and saving people over and over again, but killing the villagers she loves over and over again......"

Tong Xiaolai didn't know why, because he saw her fate, in addition to being sad and lost, he also had a strange feeling. He couldn't tell him how he felt.

"Tong Xiaolai, time is running out, we have to go." Xia Yuxuan said.

"Oh, yes. How much time has passed since we got in? Tong Xiaolai asked. They still have to face what is in front of them.

"It's been a whole day and a night." The girls replied.

"What, it's been a day and a night!" Tong Xiaolai was a little surprised to hear this.

Because the time has passed for a day and a night, Tong Xiaolai looks at the situation in the room, the demon has not yet come, hasn't it found all this yet? Why didn't you settle accounts with him?

Tong Xiaolai calculated, the medicinal effect of the Sleepiness Fruit should have been invalidated yesterday morning, and it was already the second morning.

The failure of the Sleepiness Fruit means that it may wake up at any time during the day yesterday, not to mention that in addition to the day, there is also a night during this period, and it should have woken up a long time ago, but now there is no movement. Why didn't you come to them?

According to its temper, if it woke up and found that someone had disturbed its wedding, it would have come to them as soon as possible, but now, it did not come. Tong Xiaolai was surprised by this.

"It's not still sleeping, is it? Could it be that it sleeps so well that it hasn't noticed us yet? Tong Xiaolai couldn't help but be happy and worried.

This demonic matter has to start from the morning a day ago.
