Chapter 10: Disappointment
"Of course not, you didn't tell me about the ghost cave before."
Speaking of this, Zheng Yonghua paused, and then continued:
"But then again, it's actually not much like what I want to say, it's all this kind of similar space."
Zheng Yonghua played another dumb riddle, but Xiao Mo had already been made a little impatient by him:
"Do you have something to say in one breath?"
"I'm old, I can't help it." Zheng Yonghua pretended to cough twice and began to rely on the old and sell the old. Xiao Mo saw that the urging didn't work, so he didn't speak quietly, he wanted to see when Zheng Yonghua would say.
Xiao Mo stopped urging here, but Zheng Yonghua said slowly:
"I've seen the kind of space you described to me. But I didn't know what that space was at the time, only that the ghost in the incident came out of that space.
I'm going to take this escapee camp as an example to give you a rough idea of this cursed map.
As for the cursed map in your hands, to put it bluntly, it's just a map of our area. It's like the relationship between the world, countries, provinces, cities, counties and towns.
Our region is the equivalent of a country. And as in reality, there are far more than one country. You should know exactly what I'm talking about. â
Xiao Mo nodded and said that he knew, because of the infiltration of this kind of thinking, it was not the first time that Zheng Yonghua had not. As early as the last time, Zheng Yonghua said something similar, but it was not as detailed as this time.
Seeing that Xiao Mo knew, Zheng Yonghua continued:
"You'll be wondering why only people from China and not people from other countries have escaped. In fact, they all do, it's just that there is no zĂ i in this area where we are.
Of course, we're a big region, at least second to none of the many regions.
And the kind of space I talked about earlier is close to the gap where the various areas are connected. I think the gap that your partner saw should be that kind of thing.
The curse of that thing signals me to stay away and never approach, because they don't belong in this system. Curses can only limit it, but it can't wipe them out completely.
Does it sound like a ghost? The Oni's abilities are limited, but they are still able to kill escapees with ease.
I'm kind of the steward of this area, so my gaze can sweep to a certain part of this area, and that suspicious space is seen at that time. But it didn't take long for me to look at it again, and the cracks were gone, meaning they were moving. â
"What the hell is that? And is the "curse" a living being? The more Xiao Mo listened, the more he felt that his head was big.
"I said it before. All I know is that it's a lot like the alternate dimension you just mentioned to me, and getting a curse hint that it's dangerous. But what it is, the curse doesn't alert me, and I haven't heard of it from any of the escapees, so I can't tell if you ask me.
I can only give you some clues and directions, and it's up to you to figure out what you can deduce.
In addition, I can't give you an exact answer to what the "curse" is, maybe it's God. Of course, it's just maybe. â
"God? If there really is a God in the world. It's not really going to get involved, because only humans are so boring! â
It is difficult for Xiao Mo to accept the existence of God, which stems more from his instinct than faith. and is unwilling to accept that there are other higher beings above themselves.
"I'm just guessing, after all, no one has ever seen it. And it didn't appear in any way, no, maybe it just appeared in the form of marionettes.
Have you ever seen that puppet? â
"Yes." Xiao Mo was very impressed by the marionette. After thinking about it, he asked again:
Do you think the curse is the marionette? â
Hearing this, Zheng Yonghua looked at Xiao Mo and asked:
If the "curse" is the marionette, then what is the "person" who pulls the strings? I'm afraid it can only be God. And that brings me back to my previous guess. â
"Forget it, I don't want to be too distracted on this issue anymore."
Xiao Mo didn't want to waste any more time on the issue of curses. Although Zheng Yonghua didn't explain the matter of the other space, he at least let him know one thing, that is, why Li Shuai was trapped inside. Because the "door" of that different space is constantly moving, it is impossible to find the door to get out. Of course, this is not the point, the point is that the alien space must be the exit for the storage zĂ i to leave, as long as Li Shuai can find it.
Taking a deep breath and trying his best to suppress some of the doubts that popped up, Xiao Mo asked again:
"There is still a power in this world that can compete with the curse, right?"
That "crack" is clearly just that. The crack in Zheng Yonghua's mouth naturally refers to another space.
"And what do you think of the ghosts?"
"Ghosts are completely governed by a curse, otherwise without the curse restricting them, the escapee would not have enough lives to die."
"Ghosts are cursed?" Xiao Mo couldn't help laughing after hearing this:
"Don't you think that's contradictory? Pull humans in by yourself, and then get ghosts in, and give all kinds of restrictions, and then watch both sides chase me and escape? What's the point of this, just watching the show!
And your words are also very contradictory, there was also a saying that the ghost came out of another dimension, and the curse warned you of the danger when you were probing, and from this point of view, it is impossible for the two sides to belong to the same camp. â
Zheng Yonghua was a little sarcastic when Xiao Mo said this, and he reacted suddenly, but he only laughed awkwardly twice. In fact, it's no wonder that Zheng Yonghua would think so, if they hadn't met the little ghost, even if they found the contradiction in it, they would definitely not be sure that there was still a curse in this world. So it's normal for Zheng Yonghua not to know, after all, his situation in the curse is the same as Professor Qi's in the research society at that time, it seems that he has a very high status, but in fact he is just an empty shelf, and his knowledge is extremely limited.
"Why do you even ask me when you know?" Zheng Yonghua looked at Xiao Mo, and he found that the other party knew much more than him.
"I thought you'd know a lot, but I thought it wrong. So, you don't know how to get out of that space? â
"I'm sorry, I don't know how to get your buddy out of there."
"I already expected it." Xiao Mo couldn't hide his disappointment and shook his head with a wry smile.
Seeing that Xiao Mo was disappointed in him, and wanted to continue to cooperate with Xiao Mo, Zheng Yonghua, who wanted to highlight his value, immediately said:
"I can't help you with this, but I can help you with the development of the curse and the eventual event. We can sit down and analyze these things together, which will also help you solve them in the future, what do you think? â
"Let these things go first." Xiao Mo was not in a hurry to care about these things, he raised his head and looked directly at Zheng Yonghua, and said word by word:
"I want to know the details of my fatal challenge, and you'd better tell me in the slightest, this matter has been bothering me for a long time." (To be continued......)
