What is the biggest difference between humans and animals?

Of course, it's not that humans use fire, it's that humans have humanity.

Of course, there are countless types of human nature, and the most moving thing is often the moment when human nature is displayed. So Luo Yang couldn't help but stop after being interrupted by Xiao Nan.

He brought the torch close to Xiao Nan's delicate and pink cheeks. As if he didn't know each other, he looked at it with burning eyes.

"It's almost there, the molestation is not as excessive as yours!"

Luo Yang immediately smiled and said, "Don't listen to the old man, you have good fruit to eat." ”

Xiao Nan didn't reply, but Luo Yang's pain through her arm was immediately responded to by her. As soon as the spirit is excited, he hurries on.

The fork in the road was not very long, and the two walked for less than ten minutes before coming to the end.

Looking up, at the end of it was a slate gate that was exactly the same as the number nine, except that the number became eight.

The two looked at each other and started a new round of totals.

"What do these numbers mean, numbered? Is it seven further down? ”

Luo Yang shook his head and nodded again.

He didn't respond, and dragged Xiao Nan back quickly, continuing to explore from the seventh intersection.

This time it took about the same time, but there was no stone gate as they had thought.

At about a distance from the slate gate, a new fork in the road suddenly appeared in front of the two of them. Before Luo Yang and the others had time to wonder, they suddenly found a few gold coins lying on the ground!

Luo Yang held the torch in one hand and half-knelt on the ground to examine the coins.

"It's the fifth fork! Why are we teleporting back here? Shouldn't it be the number seven? ”

Luo Yang shook his head: "There are too few clues, and I can't figure it out." ”

After he finished speaking, he put down another gold coin at the fifth intersection, which meant that he was about to continue along the fifth fork.

Luo Yang said as he walked: "Any maze is traceable, and this sign is the clue for us to solve the maze." On the other hand, the meaning of the maze is to make people crack. Otherwise, the person who does the game can directly seal the intersection. The signs are usually looking for order in the midst of disorder, so we have to look for differences through constant exploration. ”

Xiao Nan felt a lot more relieved when he heard his words, at least in this case, Luo Yang was still a person who could sort out his thoughts clearly. But she tilted her head and didn't hear the aftermath. I couldn't help but look at him suspiciously.

"Just telling you to be mentally prepared, this is where many people break the maze and crash."

"Daily persuasion? I'll tell you that I started just to comfort you, and now you've stirred up my desire to win. Isn't it just a labyrinth? Even if my cracking ability is not as good as yours, my psychological endurance is much stronger than yours. You just have to crack it, I'm afraid I'll have to do psychological construction for you when the time comes! ”

Luo Yang nodded: "Interesting!" ”

This time, the ending is still teleported back, only teleported back to the eighth fork in the road.

Luo Yang was a little troubled by the irregular teleportation mechanism, and he simply decided to ignore the route of the return for now, and decided to test what the end of the nine intersections was one by one in order, one by one, in order.

As a result, I saw the slate gate again at the sixth fork, and the number was really six.

"Why can the gates be visible to the Nine, Eight, and Six, but the Sevens, which have no gates?"

Luo Yang didn't speak, he pondered for a long time, took out a pen and paper and recorded this information.

"There are not enough clues, continue to investigate!"

When they passed through the fourth intersection, they saw the slate gate again, which was good news, but this time the number on the slate gate was not four as they imagined, but five!

Luo Yang's torch was held in the air for a long time, and the whole person stood on the spot like a sculpture.

"Is there a problem?"

Luo Yang turned his head and slowly looked at Xiao Nan: "It's much more complicated than I imagined, I thought our purpose was to find out those disappearing gates, but now it seems that there is no pattern!" ”

"Anyway, let's do what we need to do first."

Xu is an ignorant and fearless, but Xiao Nan is not as entangled as Luo Yang. She began to take the initiative and pulled Luo Yang to continue exploring. Until you walk back to the first intersection.

This time they didn't encounter the slate gate, and when they reached the fork in the road, Luo Yang was about to look down to check the gold coins to confirm that it was the first intersection, but he found that the ground was empty!

"What's the situation? Gold has been refreshed??? ”

Xiao Nan's tone was somewhat flustered in addition to surprise. If the only gold coin that is located is also refreshed, then there is no need to probe, they will be trapped in the maze and trapped alive.

Luo Yang looked around the fork in the road, he didn't speak, but dropped a gold coin and stood up.

"Let's go back!"

Xiao Nan didn't react for a while because he was too shocked. Then I understood what Luo Yang meant.

Without saying a word, she turned back with Luo Yang. It turned out that when I turned around, there was still a junction somewhere!

"Looks like there's no going back! But I'm sure the gold hasn't been refreshed, and we're at the second fork in the road. ”

Xiao Nan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

"It's not exactly bad news either, at least we know now that we're on the second layer! We don't know exactly how we got here, though. ”

Luo Yang nodded: "Let's go, let's find the two ends first." ”

Luo Yang didn't enter the fork in the second layer, he just put two gold coins in his hand at the fork in the second layer to represent the second layer. The two of them went straight in the direction of the depth of the cave. I thought that I would find the slate gate at the tail like the first layer, but when the two of them walked, they found the gold coin that Luo Yang had just placed on the ground.

Once again, the two were shocked.

Shocked to shocked, the performance of the two after being shocked is different. Xiao Nan was very distressed because he had no thoughts. And Luo Yang calmed down a lot.

"Maybe we're mistaken, we're focusing on samsara and ignoring the concept of symmetry. You see, if you compare the end of the first floor to a fork in the road, is it the same as the second floor, there are exactly nine intersections? Why are there nine intersections on each floor? ”

Xiao Nan's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he suddenly continued: "You mean, the entire labyrinth is based on nine!" ”

This was supposed to be said in passing, but her words instantly made the two of them have a new association. The two had a very tacit understanding and said a word at the same time.

"Nine Palaces!"

"Yes, those numbers are the necessary numerical clues for the nine-square grid."

"So how the hell did we get to the second floor?"

As soon as Xiao Nan said this, the excitement on Luo Yang's face froze.

This is a fatal problem. If they don't understand this, they can't find the way forward.

"Let's keep walking!"

Although Xiao Nan's words interrupted Luo Yang's train of thought, he also sorted out a way for Luo Yang in the chaos.

They entered it at the first junction on the second floor, only to retreat again. This time it retreated directly to the fifth fork in the road. At this point, Xiao Nan couldn't figure it out at all.

Luo Yang began to record without hurry, intending to enter in turn to get more clues. As a result, after reaching the sixth fork, he did not retreat, but once again encountered the slate gate.

It's just that this time, the numbers on the gate completely stunned Luo Yang on the spot.

"How can it be the number six?"

Xiao Nan was still puzzled, but Luo Yang reacted, pulled her and began to run towards the deepest part.

At the end of the day, I suddenly saw the familiar slate gate. And the number nine on the floodgates!

Xiao Nan reacted.

"We're not on the second floor, we're on the first floor!! What the hell is going on? ”

Luo Yang watched it for a long time, and finally smiled bitterly: "Once the idea is wrong, we are not far from the end." ”
