The thick darkness was like thick smoke drawn by a range hood, rolling away in clusters.
When the dim light of dawn plunged into the central hall, the people who had survived the long and terrifying darkness looked at each other in silence.
"Yu Long..." Fang Fei looked at the empty place next to him, and after a while, tears fell tentatively.
"Snow Ge is gone." Ke Xun went out, picked up the bamboo slip that Snow Grid had left on the deck, and showed it to everyone.
For a while, everyone couldn't take care of them and then rejoiced for their survival and sighed at the dead. They all came over and looked at the bamboo slips.
Only one word was written on the bamboo slips, the handwriting was very scribble, and it seemed that it was only a few strokes before it was completed. It took a long time for everyone to recognize it before they recognized that it was a "chicken".
"...What do you mean?" Wei Dong looked at Mu Yiran and Shao Ling in confusion.
The two think tanks didn't understand for a while, and each fell into thinking.
"I've said it in advance, let her leave the most critical reminder," Zhu Haowen said, "then this'chicken' must be the most critical."
"So, after lighting the rhino horns last night, what Xue Ge saw was a chicken?" Wei Dong looked absurd, "This is too unacceptable. Will a chicken appear in the vast sea? Where does the chicken come from? Come? From the sea?"
"Or, it's something that starts with the word "chicken"," Qin Ci thought. "She didn't have time to write the word "chicken" completely. Maybe the real thing is a phrase. Let me make an analogy, such as cockscomb. Or a feather duster, which is completely different from a chicken."
"No, if this is the case, I will write ‘flower’ or ‘Shan’ directly," Zhu Haowen said as he stroked his legs with his fingers, "In this way, I can write the key points in a limited time."
"It depends on the situation," Qin Ci said. "In a stressful or critical situation, people's first reaction is to follow their usual habits, and there is no time to analyze how to write to get to the point in the shortest time. ."
Zhu Haowen pondered for a while, then nodded: "You make sense, so it seems that what Xue Ge saw last night is probably something that starts with the word'chicken'."
"So is there a chicken in the sea? Cockscomb and feather duster are impossible," Wei Dong said, "Or is it just the fish with the word "chicken"? I don't understand this at all. Who of you understands fish knowledge? ?"
While she was talking, she suddenly saw Fang Fei, who had been stunned by her side, stood up and was about to walk outside.
Ke Xun stood up and stopped her. He felt that the expression on the girl's face was not right: "Where to go?"
"Go to the sea," Fang Fei still has tears on her face, but her expression has calmed down, and there is a sense of determination in the strange calm, "Go find Yu Long's body."
Ke Xun did not stop again, only exhorted: "Tie a rope on his waist."
Although knowing that she will find nothing in the end, it would be nice to let her vent.
"What was your illusion last night?" Wei Dong looked at Fang Fei's back with a bit of sorrow.
"I don't want to mention it." Ke Xun said, a flash of anger between his eyes.
Wei Dong knew him better than anyone else, thinking that the phantom appointment last night made him very upset.
He suppressed his voice very lowly and said, "Thanks to the warning method proposed by the chief shepherd, otherwise I was really tricked last night. At first there were many illusions that confuse me to leave the place, and I have survived. , Later I felt that time passed for a long time, the illusion gradually disappeared, and after a long time, I heard Ke Er say, "It's almost dawn, it's okay", there was footsteps in the darkness and started to move, Hao Wen'er also said There was a'I'm going to the toilet'.
"In fact, I was holding a pee. At first, I wanted to go out and solve it. But when I thought that the sky was not completely bright, I had to wait. Then I heard everyone talking, but Yu Long and Fang Fei didn't say a word. When he said to deal with it, he quarreled. Yu Long might be so angry that he hit his girlfriend...
"The young couple kept making awkwardness, I didn't doubt it, and everything was so realistic. Fang Fei was beaten and fell directly at my feet. I subconsciously helped her, and then'Ke'er' became angry. , I knew that what Ke Er looked down on most was the person who beat the woman, and then'he' fought Yu Long.
"Yu Long beat and scolded, and the scolding was too unpleasant. I really can't stand the fire-the whole process is too realistic and can trigger my anger and inverse scales. I wanted to stand up without holding back. Get started.
"Fortunately, I have a pen in my hand--if I really do, I have to drop the pen first, right? I was about to throw it when my head was hot, and suddenly I remembered something that happened when I was in school.
"That was the little gangster near the school. They ran to our school to find trouble. The goal was a mutual friend of Keer and I. Keer was going to help. I was about to follow and was pressed by Keer. It’s down, and Ke Er said to me at the time: The other party is a social gangster. When you start, you don’t have to be light or heavy, but only go hard. Don’t come. Your hand is holding a brush. You will use it in the future. Earn money to support the family.
"Thinking about this, I couldn't let go of this pen. I held this pen and gradually calmed down. Then I realized that these are probably still illusions-it's not bright yet, even if it's not an illusion. It's reality, and I also decided to wait until I see the sky to relax.
"It turns out that the illusion is really cunning. Fortunately, I took this pen, otherwise I would confess to it last night, and it made me hold back fire and urine!"
Wei Dong stood up and looked at Ke Xun: "I should be fine when I go to the bathroom?"
"Take me, Brother Dong!" Luo Ling's voice came dully from the corner.
Wei Dong walked over to help him untie the rope.
Shao Ling raised his eyes to look at Mu Yiran: "The deceptiveness of the illusion is becoming more and more sophisticated. First, let us confuse us with a illusion, so that we preconceived that this is the main story. When this illusion passes, we relax our vigilance. At that time, a more bewildering illusion continued."
"Are you awakened from the faint by the illusion?" Mu Yiran asked him lightly.
Shao Ling looked down and said, "Yes."
Obviously, the syncope method he chose did not work.
"I don't think the illusion of each night is created and superimposed according to the five senses." Mu Yiran said another lightly.
Shao Ling raised his eyes and stared at him. This person once again denied the inference he had made before.
"Last night's illusion did not specifically target the sense of smell and taste to create a plot, let alone vision," Mu Yiran did not mind Shao Ling's scrutinizing gaze, "and what is noteworthy is that following the previous night After all of us have experienced illusions that disgust us, it seemed that what we all experienced last night was an illusion that would make us lose control of our emotions. More precisely, it was an illusion that irritated us. Of course, this still needs to be asked. It will be determined after everyone has passed."
"Mine is like this," said Ke Xun, who sat next to him. "The illusion fabricated a plot that made me the most uncontrollable anger."
"It's the same with mine." Zhu Haowen continued.
"Me too." Qin Ci nodded.
"So, what is your inference?" Shao Ling looked at Mu Yiran, "The first night was trust, the second night was disgust, and the third night was anger?"
"No," Mu Yiran said clearly, slowly and calmly, "the third night is anger, the second night is evil, the first night is love."
Shao Ling was startled and was about to argue, but Mu Yiran did not give him a chance, and continued: "Love, evil, and anger, if you look at it this way, the power behind the scenes is not based on our five senses to create illusions, but It is based on human emotions-people have seven emotions and six desires, the so-called seven emotions: happiness, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, and desire. If expected, the four nights after this will be joy, sorrow, and fear. , Desire these four emotions to create illusions.
"Humans are sentient animals. As long as they are normal and healthy humans, they will have emotions. As long as they have emotions, they will have mental weakness. As long as there are mental weaknesses, they may be affected by illusions and their thoughts and behaviors.
"The illusion uses the seven emotions that humans possess in turn to find the weakest point in our spirit. People who are still alive do not mean that they are spiritually strong. It is probably just because they have not been touched. point.
"Perhaps we should carefully examine what our spiritual weaknesses are, what will make us happy, hard to control, sorrowful... Only by acknowledging and facing our weaknesses can we be able to resist it. Its attack."
When the voice fell behind, everyone did not say anything, each looking down, exploring the weakest part of their heart.
Mu Yiran's eyes fell on the bamboo slips with the word "chicken" written on it, and he fell into deep thought again.
"Then do you think anyone who lights the rhino horns will not escape?" Shao Ling asked him.
"I'm not sure," Mu Yiran looked at the place where Xuege was last night. "To put it coldly, a person like Xuege who has little life expectancy, any emotion may cause some interference to her, but it can make her She can't bear it and loses control, I'm afraid it's unlikely. Of course, nothing is absolute. Maybe her...'disappear' is because of emotional interference, maybe it's force majeure, or maybe she has completely given up In order to survive the faith, I settled myself here smoothly."
"So tonight," Shao Ling looked at him and the others around him, "Who will light the rhino horn?"
"I come."
The answering voice was so calm that it didn't seem to be facing life and death. It came from Fang Fei who walked in from the door.
"Girl, the deceased is dead. There is no need to despise your own life because of this." Qin Ci the healer's parents looked at the red eyes with pity, but never revealed any fragile young girl.
"Don't get me wrong," Fang Fei calmly said, "I'm not because of Yu Long, I just can't bear to wait for death like this. This is not my character. I am not afraid of death, otherwise I would not choose the high risk of being a diver. My life is full of unknowns. I just can’t stand this feeling of being played on. Death is part of nature, and my lifelong desire is to challenge death and nature.
This brave and unyielding girl made the men present in awe. Luo Ge couldn’t help suggesting:
Don’t you have a knife in the kitchen, or sister, please take one tonight and give it a knife when you see the chicken. Try?"
"If this is the case, Fang Fei is afraid that she won't be able to be in the same room with us," Shao Ling is still sensible and calm. "Otherwise, we may be stabbed by us under the influence of the illusion, even if we are not there. In the same room, because the illusion allows us to break through the space constraints, the person at the bow can accidentally injure the person at the stern."
