Chapter 105 Consciousness Bias
"Only Ah Long's soul has had an abnormality here, could it be that he is the key to the abnormal soul resonance here?
But where is the operability of soul resonance? β
Even if Bai Ning is right, they are still black-eyed and don't know anything.
"It's not necessarily Aaron's soul that's causing the anomaly."
After Bai Ning finished speaking, he took out the crystal nucleus that exuded a luster of mist luster.
In this temple, the luster of the crystal nucleus seems to have become more intense, and I don't know if it is because of some abnormal changes in the remnant souls gathered inside.
"You're saying that it's the remnant soul in this crystal nucleus that dominates our anomaly?"
Jiang Yingxue also felt a little unbelievable, the three of them would still be affected by a wisp of remnant souls?
"This remnant may be inconspicuous, but it may be the key to soul resonance.
Even if Aaron's soul is in a partially free state, it is still a soul located in the body, far less pure than the soul in my hand.
The soul resonates with the crystal through the crystal, and the crystal is the intermediary between us and the temple.
The temple, the remnant soul, the partial free soul of Aaron, our sound soul, this seems to constitute a progressive relationship so that the influence of the temple on us can finally reach our soul.
In turn, our sound souls, through such transmission, can also begin to influence the overall properties of the temple. β
Bai Ning's reasoning was surprising again, whether it was the illusion of the infinite size of the temple, or Jiang Yingxue's strong danger warning similar to the sixth sense before, or even the siege of the beast herd later, it was just a kind of self-predicament of mediocrity.
In other words, everything they had managed in the temple before and now was nothing more than a concentrated aggregation of self-psychological suggestion.
The temple uses the basic principle of soul resonance to blend together the underlying fears in the minds of the three of them, forming this collective illusion.
Even this illusion does not act on their five senses, but is directly embedded in the depths of their consciousness, forming an effect similar to that of consciousness bias.
For example, when seeing an abstract painting, each viewer can associate a picture based on their own basic cognition, but a person with normal consciousness will still think that it is a painting, but a person with a biased consciousness will stubbornly think that the painting is what he sees.
Since Bai Ning and Jiang Yingxue had experienced the seemingly infinitely vast space before, their instinctive awareness of darkness was that this was an infinitely vast space.
This kind of consciousness bias will cause them to deliberately ignore details that they do not want to be related to infinite space, for example, they will observe the traces of the existence of corners, but they will subconsciously ignore this discovery.
The cognitive details filtered by this conscious bias will naturally turn the temple into an infinite space.
As for the herd of beasts encountered before, it may just be some animals that exist in this underground area itself, and it is only because of their overly stereotypical of the attack of the herd that they will have auditory hallucinations of the herd's attack.
"In other words, we only need to destroy this crystal nucleus now to completely disconnect from the temple?"
This kind of hallucination based on soul resonance seems to be even more unpredictable, and Jiang Yingxue can only grasp the core point of the crystal nucleus to think of a way.
It's just that there is obviously something wrong with this suggestion, and looking at Bai Ning's attitude, you know that he will not easily destroy this crystal nucleus.
"Consciousness bias will only cause us to ignore some important details, but it will not change the temple, we just need to pay attention to the next action.
Furthermore, if the previous rat-like herd didn't exist, we could have continued to move towards the center of the temple, where I believe there should be what we want. β
Bai Ning's response was very vague, no one knew what he wanted to do, but it was certain that he was going to go to the dusty desert again.
This resolute gesture seems to have basic confidence in the crystal nucleus in his hand.
The crystal nucleus can communicate with the temple and allow the three of them to form a wonderful soul resonance phenomenon, so with the power of the crystal nucleus, can the temple achieve some other functions?
If they can use the Crystal Nucleus Communication Temple to gain some ancient knowledge here, this kind of harvest is already worthy of this adventure.
No one knew what Bai Ning's overall plan was at this time, but Jiang Yingxue stubbornly believed that Bai Ning's adventure on this trip was for this basic goal.
Without further ado, the trio quickly re-entered the dust desert, as they had seen before, the thicker the dust beneath their feet as they progressed towards the center.
Faintly, it seemed that some rustling sounds could be heard wandering around, and the beam of the strong flashlight shone through, and it was empty again.
It is unclear if this is an auditory hallucination caused by a deviation in consciousness, or if a nearby rodent-like creature is watching and wandering.
The feeling of trampling on the dust became softer and softer, the feeling of being a foot deep and a foot shallow was becoming more and more tiring, and the air began to dry inexplicably, and I don't know if it was a repetition of the previous scene, or if the central area of the temple was like this.
The vast dust is still endless, and the intertwined boundary of light and darkness seems so dim and cold, there is no end in sight, there is no end in sight, there is no reason to speak of it.
According to Bai Ning's previous speculation, they should have discovered some strange places in this rambling trek, and through these details, they could even further correct the direction of their exploration and delineate where the core area of the temple was.
But after walking for so long, I didn't notice any details other than the sand and dust that was becoming more and more difficult to trek.
If walking around the temple before can be understood as a deviation in consciousness, the deliberate neglect of key corner details makes them mistakenly believe that the temple is infinite.
But now across the entire temple, and the thickness of the dust under the feet is still increasing, whether it is the thin layer of soil at the edge of the temple or the temple walls hundreds of meters high, it is impossible to ignore such obvious details even if there is the interference of conscious deviation in the case of intentional observation.
After thinking about it for a long time, Bai Ning felt that they would decide that the dust area in the center of the temple could not be crossed, and that was because they had never crossed the dust area at all.
When the dust under their feet reaches a certain thickness, they will not be able to tell the true thickness by touch, so even if they stand still, they will feel that they are constantly moving towards the center of the temple.
In other words, when they reach the central area of the temple, they begin to loop in an infinite circle around a fixed circle.
According to this logic, Bai Ning irradiated the strong flashlight on both sides of him, but did not find any abnormalities in it.
This is very strange, if they are circling the center of the temple, one side on either side of it should be the core area of the temple, and something may be enshrined in it.
"You grab to the left, I'll grab to the right, keep a certain rotation amplitude and shoot out the bullets in one magazine."
Bai Ning suddenly stood still, gave an order to Jiang Yingxue, and then took out a pistol and quickly emptied a magazine to his right side.
Jiang Yingxue immediately understood what Bai Ning meant, took out her pistol and quickly emptied a magazine, the dull sound of gunfire stirred in the temple, and she couldn't hear any echoes, as if she was proving the infinite breadth of this temple in her own unique way.
After a long silence, there was still no movement in the darkness in the distance, Jiang Yingxue was also a little puzzled, the bullet would not be disturbed by cognitive biases, and it stands to reason that it should collide with the wall in the distance to a certain extent.
No matter how slight the collision sound, it would inevitably cause a certain noise in such an empty temple, letting them know that this temple was indeed limited.
But the current situation, whether it is the silent disappearance of gunshots or bullets, seems to prove the infinite vastness of this temple.
"It doesn't work, and if we can bring an RPG, maybe it can work wonders right now."
Jiang Yingxue's tone was slightly regretful, but everyone knew that they had encountered so many difficulties before, and they had already used up RPGs.
Now they only have a few guns in their hands, and in the face of this magnificent ruined temple, this very last modern weapon cannot shock any waves.
As soon as the words fell, Bai Ning picked up the submachine gun in his hand and swept out a shuttle of bullets to his right side again, and the dense fire erupted, as if he could feel a strong wind sweeping through the temple.
In the face of Bai Ning's current slightly angry and corrupt behavior, Jiang Yingxue would not think that Bai Ning would be so naΓ―ve.
The pistol bullet just now definitely had a certain effect, but the effect was not obvious.
The noise from the gunfire quickly faded into oblivion, and absolute silence returned to the temple, and the breathing of all three of them seemed a little heavy at this moment.
It seems that no matter what kind of bullet it is, no matter how dense the bullet is, falling into the dust with exhaustion will be their only end.
"Save some bullets, even if there are no herds here, those rat-like creatures will be enough for us to drink a ......."
All attempts failed, and Jiang Yingxue suddenly felt that leaving this temple should be the best solution.
In the middle of their sentences, there was a dull grinding sound beneath their feet, like the sound of some kind of mechanism opening and closing, and like a sign that the dust layer under their feet was beginning to collapse.
Now that they don't have the illusion of a herd raid, it's hard to get out of the temple.
There was no time to panic, and with a muffled sound of "bang", a huge beam of light suddenly descended on the entire temple, leaving there to be no secrets here.
