In one corner of the pool, a string of symbols is carved into the stone, which looks like the rudiments of writing.

Zhou Yigang wanted to get closer to see, but was stopped by Zhao Ruozhi: "I think this place is a little gloomy, so don't go." ”

"I don't think so." Su Xiaoyu had already stepped into the hot spring pool and stood side by side in front of the string of symbols with Geng Ran. He took out his phone and sent a few pictures to the symbol.

"Take it back to anthropologists for research, don't soak in the hot springs, let's go."

Emily looked frustrated: "I finally found a good place, it's a pity not to soak in the hot springs." ”

Zhao Ruozhi shook his head, feeling more and more wrong, and just wanted to get out of here.

"Katy, your face is bad." Su Xiaoyu said, "Are you feeling unwell? ”

"Let's get out of here as soon as possible." Zhao Ruozhi said, "I can't tell you what it feels like, as if someone is staring at us, but who else will there be in this deep mountain and old forest?" ”

"Maybe there really are primitive people." Zhou Yi frowned, although he didn't find more, but the symbols that resemble human characters appeared here, and they were not completely eroded by the spring, which is enough to show that there must have been human activities in this area in recent decades.

After walking a corner, as soon as he left the hot spring pool, Zhao Ruozhi felt that the sense of oppression was much less. As soon as your mind relaxes, so does your attention. As soon as I stepped on the slippery dead leaves, I felt a sharp pain in my ankle, followed by a whirlwind of the world.

Falling in the mountains and forests is not a trivial matter. Zhao Ruozhi walked behind Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi reacted very quickly, and caught Zhao Ruozhi as soon as possible, but there was no way to stabilize his body, so he could only roll down the steep hillside. There were screams behind them, and Zhou Yi and Zhao Ruozhi could only listen to the voices of the three people behind them getting farther and farther away.

The branches and gravel on the hillside were everywhere, and Zhou Yi tightly protected Zhao Ruozhi in his arms.

I don't know how far I rolled along the hillside, Zhao Ruozhi only felt that this hillside seemed to have no end.

"Ah-Yi." Zhao Ruozhi called him.

"Are you alright?" Zhou Yi only felt that his eyes were full of stars, and he fell down all the way and rubbed a lot of places on his body. Fortunately, although the slope was relatively steep, it was generally flat, otherwise he could not have promised that he would have made it back alive if he had hit a large raised rock.

"My foot is broken." Zhao Ruozhi nervously checked Zhou Yi, "Did you fall somewhere?" ”

"No, it's just that we're lucky."

Zhao Ruozhi looked around and found that they were now at the bottom of a valley, and it was easy to slide down, but it was not so easy to return the same way.

"How are we going back?" Zhao Ruozhi said worriedly.

"Rest for a while to conserve your strength, and wait for them to come down to us."

"How can they find it here?"

"Emily has a very keen sense of smell and it was easy to find us if she was willing to help. Su Xiaoyu and Geng Ran are familiar with the terrain here, and with them, they don't have to worry too much. ”

Zhao Ruozhi looked at Zhou Yi, his face was scratched by a tree branch with a shallow blood mark, his clothes were covered with mud, and his elbows and knees were also worn out. The dirt was mixed with blood, which made Zhao Ruozhi's heart ache.

She took a deep breath and closed her eyes.

"What are you going to do?" Zhou Yi saw Zhao Ruozhi's serious expression, and his heart tightened.

"What I've done before, I can try again."

Zhou Yi grabbed Zhao Ruozhi's hand and said sharply: "I don't allow you to borrow the ability of the four-dimensional space again." ”

"It's okay." Zhao Ruozhi opened his eyes, his eyes were clear, "I only need to sleep to recover, but I will be more tired." ”

"I don't think it's that simple."

"Why? After borrowing the ability, there was no other discomfort except that I felt very tired. ”

"Don't use it until you know what the four-dimensional space is." Zhou Yi didn't want her to suffer a little more, and he didn't want to see her hurt a little more.

Zhao Ruozhi pulled his hand out of Zhou Yi's hand, put it on his shoulder, and said seriously: "But your wound will be dangerous if it is not treated." ”

"Nope." Zhou Yi was categorical, "Obedient." ”

Zhao Ruo's heart was anxious: "Why can't you be obedient?" The scratched places are covered with mud, and there are so many bacteria and microorganisms in the soil, what should I do if I am infected? You're going to kill me? She suddenly remembered that the "mother" in the four-dimensional space told her that she could access the resources there at any time, and in addition to borrowing abilities, she could also go to get medicines. There are side effects of borrowing ability, but there are no side effects from using medicines.

"I don't need to borrow power, I just need to go get some medicine." Zhao Ruozhi explained: "After I was shot, I went to the four-dimensional space, and the medicine there worked very quickly, which is why my injuries healed so quickly. ”

"When did you go to the four-dimensional space?" After Zhao Ruozhi was injured, he never left Zhao Ruozhi for a moment, "I have been with you since you were injured." ”

"In a dream." Zhao Ruozhi explained: "I don't need to go in person, I just need my consciousness to go." ”

"Your consciousness went to the four-dimensional space, but your body that didn't go to the four-dimensional space quickly recovered? How is this done? Zhou Yi asked.

"I don't know how, but that's the way it is. My injuries healed in such a short time, as you know. ”

"I can't let you take any more risks."

"I can't let you risk it either. Your wounds must be treated. Zhao Ruozhi found a flat place to sit down and meditated cross-legged.

Zhou Yi pulled Zhao Ruozhi up from the ground and hugged him in his arms. The voice vibrated in his thick chest: "Even if you want to go to the four-dimensional space, I can't let you go so far away from me. ”

Zhao Ruozhi felt a softness in his heart, something melted in it, and it was warm.

She closed her eyes reassuringly and promised, "I'll be back soon." ”

The vision fell into a snow-white field, and when he came to the four-dimensional space for the third time, Zhao Ruozhi was no longer afraid, but a little relaxed.

"Mom?" Zhao Ruozhi shouted into this white space: "Mom, are you there?" ”

"What if?"

It wasn't Eve who answered her, it was Zhou Yi.

Zhao Ruozhi threw himself into Zhou Yi's arms: "You're here too, great." ”

"Did you bring me in?"

"I let you in." Eve stepped out of the "wall", "She can't bring you in right now. ”

Eve looked at Zhou Yi in embarrassment and called Xiao Y to help him with the medicine.

As soon as the medicine touched the skin, the broken skin began to grow back. If Zhao Ruozhi hadn't told him about what happened in the four-dimensional space earlier, he might have felt that he was dreaming.

"Mom, we've fallen into the valley, how can we get out?"

"Your friends are already on their way here, and will be able to get out soon." Eve said, "I asked you to come in today to tell you not to come near the hot springs in the future. ”

"Are there primitive people living there?" Zhao Ruozhi asked.

"It's not about meeting primitives right now." Eve worried: "You have already come to the four-dimensional space, do you think that there is no other space in the world except the four-dimensional space?" ”

"Other spaces?" Zhao Ruozhi was puzzled.

Zhou Yi guessed: "Are you a space composed of other substances or forms?" ”

"Yes." Eve gave Zhou an approving look, "As far as I know, the magnetic field in that area is different from the magnetic field in other regions. If the magnetic field is not a super magnetic field, it will not have much effect on the human body, but for Ruozhi, the arrangement of certain magnetic fields is fatal. ”

"No wonder I felt uncomfortable as soon as I approached that area, I thought there were primitives living in it."

"Why did it affect her?" Zhou Yi said worriedly.

"Because she's a person from the fourth dimension." Eve said, "Remember what I told you before? ”

"You mean—"

"If you know, it's good." Eve interrupted Zhou Yi and prepared to see them off.

"Wait a minute." Zhao Ruozhi walked up to Eve and said, "I still have questions. ”

"It's almost time, it's time for you to go." Eve operates the transparent tablet in his hand, leaving no room for speech, "When it's time to meet, you can always see each other, and it's never too late to ask." ”

The white "walls" melted in view, and everything returned to the way they had left.

The woods are still the same woods, and the valley floor is still the valley floor. Zhou Yi and Zhao Ruozhi still hugged each other tightly, except that Zhou Yi's skin that was rubbed by dead branches and gravel had recovered as before.

Zhao Ruozhi woke up like a dream, if she hadn't been in and out of the four-dimensional space three times, how could she dare to believe that all this was true?

After living for more than twenty years, she was suddenly told that there was a world beyond this world. The market price of that world passes much more slowly than here, and there is a miraculous medicine that can heal all wounds in a short time. It's like opening a plug-in in the game, what is this to the average player?

Zhou Yi hugged Zhao Ruozhi tightly.

Zhao Ruozhi also hugged Zhou Yi tightly.

"Can you believe it? What happens in the 4th dimension? Zhao Ruozhi's voice trembled.

"I believe it." Zhou Yi said: "Do you still remember the time when I took you out of the woods, and you ran into the woods with me in anger and were brought out by Su Xiaoyu?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Ruozhi recalled: "I only remember that when I was still in the hospital, I was taken to a white room by several people. I didn't know it was four-dimensional space at the time. I slept in it and woke up standing in the woods, having no memory of what had happened in between. ”

"I went there while you slept." Zhou Yi said, "It's just that I'm going to a black four-dimensional space. There's also a time rift in that space that takes me back to a wind tunnel lab two days ago. ”

"Black four-dimensional space? How do you know it's four-dimensional space? Zhao Ruozhi said suspiciously.

"Your mother told me." What Zhou Yi can be sure of is that although Eve admitted that Zhao Ruozhi was her daughter in front of Zhao Ruozhi, there must be some kind of connection between her and Lin Mei, and the two of them are not exactly the same two people. It is very likely that Eve has Lin Mei's memories and her appearance, but Eve is completely from the four-dimensional world.
