150. a rivet
Seeing Nie Yuan turn to leave, Jack and Ruth quickly gathered their sense of happiness for the rest of their lives.
The man was right, now was not the time to cry with joy, they hadn't gone out yet, and the one who couldn't look directly in the fog could appear at any moment.
Although they still have a fear of walking with their eyes open.
But if you close your eyes, you can't keep up with Nie Yuan's footsteps at all, so you can only endure fear and grasp this life-saving straw.
"So apart from you, is the gallery owner Hamberton still alive?" Nie Yuan asked without replying.
Jack hurriedly followed, and replied, "At least an hour ago, when Hampotten was still alive, when we met the one who could not look directly, and we were separated, and Ruth and I kept walking forward with our eyes closed, not daring to look back at what was going on...... Those who can't look directly choose Hamporton ......"
Ruth added, "But it's not certain that Hambalton is dead, because as long as you don't open your eyes, it's supposed to be fine......"
Nie Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Later, you can take me to the location where I was separated from Han Boton, he may know something useful and help solve the situation here." ”
"Go back to him?"
Jack looked worried, and continued to ask: "Now that we are walking with our eyes open like this, is it really okay, before that Matthews and them, when they met those who could not look directly, the secret art of the church did not play the slightest role." ”
Nie Yuan replied: "The problem here must be solved, Hambolton is the key person, of course he must try to search and rescue, as for the person who can't look directly, I don't know how weird she is, but it should be no problem." ”
"Should it be......"
Jack muttered and didn't speak again.
He also knew that it was impossible for him to question Nie Yuan's ability now, so he could only choose to believe him.
Soon, Nie Yuan returned to the position he had come from.
The faint white-lacquered wooden door was not far away, and its hazy shape could already be seen.
Continuing to walk forward a few steps, Nie Yuan stopped.
Seeing this, Jack spoke again, and said, "That's it, no matter how fast you go, you can't reach that wooden door, if you came in from there, you can't get out now!" ”
Yes, the few steps forward just now had already allowed Nie Yuan to confirm Jack's words.
The wooden door became unreachable, and like the critters, it created a minimum relative distance from them.
About ten meters away, no matter how you walk, you keep this distance.
Seeing that it was difficult to surpass this mere ten meters, Nie Yuan's heart moved, and he said to Nancy on his neck: "Nancy, I'll throw you out and try." ”
"Good!"
Nancy naturally didn't have anything to say, so she immediately nodded and climbed from Nie Yuan's neck to his arm.
Nie Yuan charged up slightly, and threw Nancy like a discus.
Ooh!
This off-the-beaten-thru speed stunned both Jack and Ruth.
Nancy turned into an afterimage in their eyes, and in the blink of an eye, she flew to the wooden door, stirring the air around her with a dull thud.
If Nancy hadn't controlled her body, forcibly stopped the kinetic energy of the flying shot, and landed firmly on the ground, she would have directly penetrated the white wooden door.
"Yes!"
With a cheer, Nancy turned and touched the wooden door, opening it slightly, revealing the paint-covered white world inside the door.
The paintbrush on the door lock was also stuck in the hole, and there was no shift in the slightest.
"This ......"
Jack was stunned by Nancy's speed at first, and when he saw her open the wooden door, he reacted instantly.
"You're over? Nancy, how did you get over? ”
"Of course I threw it over."
Nie Yuan and Nancy looked at each other for more than ten meters, their eyes were thoughtful, and they responded to Jack casually.
He didn't choose to rush over by himself just now, just to verify something.
What would happen if the wooden door kept a minimum relative distance from everyone, and one person stood still and the other walked forward?
It is the space that stretches as a result, causing the person in front to move away from the person in the back, and the wooden door moves away from the person in front of it at the same speed.
Or is the wooden door only aimed at the person standing still, forming a minimum relative distance from him, so that the person in front of him can get closer?
Now it seems to be the latter.
However, in order to set up controls and control variables, Nie Yuan also needed to make other experiments.
He looked at Jack and Ruth and said, "I'll stand still while you two go find Nancy." ”
This is to test whether Nancy's speed just now was too fast and forcibly broke through the limitations of this misty realm, so she was able to reach the location of the wooden door.
If you walk at the speed of Jack and Ruth, you can get there.
Then Nie Yuan ruled out the possibility that it was because of the excessive speed of movement that Nancy broke through the limit of the fog realm.
Finally, the rules that exist in the Fog Realm are deduced.
"Okay, okay!"
Jack pulled Ruth excitedly and walked briskly towards Nancy's place.
Nothing unusual happened during this time, and they were able to meet Nancy without incident.
This also allowed Nie Yuan to confirm the guess in his heart.
He said, "All right, you all come back." ”
"Huh?"
Jack said, "Since you can touch the exit, why don't you go and call more people to help......
As he spoke, he looked sideways at the white world outside the door, and heard Nie Yuan say that that there was the way out.
"How to get there?"
Nie Yuan asked rhetorically, "Do you want to leave me here and leave by yourself?" ”
As he spoke, he took a few steps forward.
But it is still the same situation just now, keeping a minimum relative distance from the wooden door, and not approaching at all.
The three people in front of the wooden door only felt a flower in front of them, and it seemed that the space was constantly distorted and pulled.
They could see that Nie Yuan was walking towards them, but he kept it at that distance, just as they had known it at first.
Jack looked puzzled and said, "Why can't you get over?" I thought you'd found a way to break through the fog. ”
Ruth's eyes moved, and she said, "Didn't you use the secret art of the church to break the obstacles here?" And just because there is some kind of pattern here? ”
Nie Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, but according to this law, there is always one person who can't get out, such as me now." ”
If the purpose is to escape from here, one person must be left as a "rivet".
The function of this rivet is to fix the space in the misty realm and sacrifice it for other people's wedding dresses.
It's like when you detonate a bomb, the lead is not long enough, so you have to leave one person to detonate it manually, and you can't escape from the explosion area.
Ruth seemed to remember something, and suddenly realized: "We all acted collectively before, and it is true that no one stayed where they were, and the others approached the wooden door!" It turned out to be so simple, and I didn't even notice it! ”
After all, in the dark and strange scene here, a group of people huddle together for warmth, seek psychological comfort for each other, and share the probability of being killed when encountering danger, of course, it is an instinctive choice.
Nothing happened, and some people stayed put, while others explored the wooden door.
Ordinary people are scared to death here, okay, how can you think so much.
When Jack heard Ruth's words, he also reacted, and suddenly realized, "It's amazing, I discovered the law of fog at once, and I deserve to be a member of the church!" ”
