Volume 4 Embattled Chapter 29 Double-faced Village
Hearing this, Kuroko got up again, and I could feel the rope in my hand being pulled straight, "There is not much time, you have to hurry up and get out!" ”
At this moment, Pang Qinghe, who had not spoken much, said in a strange tone, "Do you feel that these fogs seem to be a substantial existence, not liquids, but like extremely small suspended solids?" ”
"Huh?" I wondered, then stretched out my hand to feel it, closed my eyes, and the other senses became sensitive, as expected, as if there were many dense particles in my hands that were smaller than sand. "It seems that it is indeed yes, Sister Qinghe, what do you think?"
"If they are suspended solids, if it rains at this moment, we can settle them on the ground, and our problem will be solved?"
"But how can I ......" The fat man was puzzled, the words blurted out without passing through his brain, and halfway through his speech, he seemed to realize how stupid the question he asked was, "Sister Qinghe, you mean to make a fire?" ”
When Xiu'er heard this, she said suspiciously, "But before, it was because there were real houses, and those people would do things like fire and rain in order to protect the black shadow from infringement, but at this moment, the houses are gone, is it still possible to rain?" ”
I rested enough, and pulled Xiu'er to stand up, "No matter what, you have to try, in case it works!" ”
The fat man laughed happily when he heard this, as if he was born with a gene in his bones that loved to do evil, and when he heard something like sabotage, his blood boiled and he was excited.
It won't be long before we can't see it, but we can clearly feel a surge of heat. Obviously, the fat man had already lit the fire numbly, and there was a subtle 'crackling' sound in the air, which seemed to give people a feeling of auditory hallucinations, but as long as he settled down and pricked up his ears, he could still barely be sure that the sound did exist.
However, the heavens did not grant people's wishes. We waited for a long time, but the expected rainstorm did not appear, and the only thing that remained was a faint smell of burning.
"Sure enough!" Pang Qinghe said disappointedly.
The fat man stopped increasing the fire, first sighed helplessly, and then suddenly cried out, "You see, the white fog in the area where the fire was made has become much thinner, and the eyes can see it a little. Before we could speak, he exclaimed, "That's a good thing, right, just raise the fire." Burn these things to the point where they can be seen clearly, and we won't be able to get out easily. What is this called, burn a fire path! ”
When I heard this, I couldn't bear to discourage his enthusiasm, and the big head sighed, "Fatty, what did you use to make a fire just now?" ”
"The clothes in my backpack!"
"Then how many clothes do you think you need to burn to help everyone get out by relying on fire?" The big head was prompted by a bloody moment.
I could feel the fat man immediately wilt and stop talking.
Xiu'er seemed to be waving her hand to feel the particles suspended in the air. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he said, "The main problem now is that we can't figure out which direction to go, right?" It doesn't matter if it's a labyrinth, or a trick, or something messy. As long as we can determine the direction of the down, everything will fall into place. Everyone has walked for so much time just now, and the reason why they can't get out no matter what, is it because they have unconsciously gone around in circles, and if they can walk in a straight line, isn't it okay? ”
The big head didn't understand for a while, "But Xiu'er." How do you make sure you're walking in a straight line and not that we can see anything? ”
Xiu'er was silent for a moment, and then said, "Human eyes are very deceptive many times, think about why we can't even see the people around us at this moment?" Is it really because of these solid particles? It's like if you're standing on a road with a thick fog, and people from afar are dressed in plain clothes. You may only see a shadow, but if a car suddenly comes from the opposite side and strong lights come in, you will be able to immediately realize and take refuge. ”
The fat man almost subconsciously complained when he heard the voice, "I said, what's wrong with you all today, it's really inexplicable to say something I don't understand." ”
But I understood what Xiu'er meant, could it be that our eyes were inclined to consciousness from the beginning, since everyone was in this environment that seemed to be a white fog but was not. Could it be because everyone's eyes are misled, but in fact, these particles are not as powerful as imagined, and can block the view. ”
"Misleading? Because of what? The big head asked briefly.
"Remember, what did you do before you entered here?" I said.
"It's common to have a good night's sleep and breakfast." The fat man replied.
"That's not right!" Kuroko's voice suddenly sounded, "If all this is a test, then going back to it, the rain that everyone got drenched last night may be the key!" ”
"Rain?" The smell of cigarette smoke came from the smoker's mouth, "How can the rain on our bodies cause us to lose sight of our direction now?" ”
"It's possible," Taro replied gloomily, "what if that rain wasn't really rain?" It's some kind of colorless and odorless liquid. The ancients' attainments in this area were far beyond modern times, and if those medicinal liquids were poured on our bodies, the same effect as the rain would have caused us, and we would have only done ordinary wiping after we went back, and we didn't pay much attention to it. It's quite possible that the person who designed the level decided what to do with the second level at that point. ”
"So that is, the liquid accidentally entered our eyes, so that these white fogs, which might have been clearly visible from the outside at this moment, became like chaos in them? Is such an explanation too far-fetched. Pang Qinghe said.
"No, it's not far-fetched at all," I suddenly remembered something, "Remember when Kuroko was the first to rush into the village that looked like cooking smoke?" At that time, we were all standing at the entrance of the village, and although the whole village looked strange, we could see the bottom at a glance. And when everyone rushed in, it became like this. No, no, maybe this white fog doesn't exist at all, we just stand in the village, but like headless flies, we are walking around and around! ”
Xiu'er whispered, "From the outside, it looks like a sunny village above, but when you walk in, it turns into a chaotic white mist." Suddenly, she thought of something, and said impatiently, "Let's assume that these white fogs really exist, then the most important problem is that everyone will unconsciously turn and walk under their feet, but their heads still tell themselves that they are walking in a straight line." So how to solve such a problem! (To be continued......)
