Almost at the same time as dawn fell, the thick and gloomy darkness was like smoke sucked out of thin air, quickly dissipating.

Ke Xun fixed his eyes and saw that a dozen steps away on his right hand was the vast ocean. Even if he could swim, he believed that once he fell, he would never have a chance to return to the boat.

Turning his head, Mu Yiran was standing behind him, even half a step away.

If he had not been able to withstand the terrifying pressure brought by the terrifying, hairy breath on his back last night, it is likely that the sharp arrow in his hand has been pierced into the body of his beloved by his own hands.

Ke Xun threw away the crossbow and arrow in his hand, turned around and hugged his lover tightly, and his lover also opened his arms to catch him, put his arms in his arms, and covered his head with a slightly moist hair on.

"...Brother, brother-in-law...If you hit Bo'er... let me know in advance... I will avoid it..." Luo Ling's trembling voice came from her feet.

Ke Xun tilted his head and saw Luo Ling lying on the deck with a white face, wet tears still hanging on his cheeks, and the strength to lift his hand to wipe it seemed to be lost, and the whole person became soft. Grated radish.

"Are you okay?" Ke Xun asked him.

"Is it a problem to pee in my pants?..." Luo Ling said, sniffing.

"..." Ke Xun ignored him, turned his head back and kissed Mu Yiran's lips, loosened the arm that was holding him, raised his finger upstairs, "I'll go up and see Dongzi and the others."

"I'll go to Shao Ling and the others to see." Mu Yiran nodded and did not say much, because each other had already taken care of each other.

Ke Xun saved the effort of running around the stairs. He directly climbed the rope three times and five times, and then turned up to the second floor. Seeing that Wei Dong Qin Ci Zhu Haowen and Xue Ge are still "in", but their faces are different. .

"How is it, are all okay?" Ke Xun still asked.

Several people responded with humming.

"What did you meet last night?" Ke Xun asked.

"A word is hard to say..." Wei Dong's face was full of fear, and there was still cold sweat on his forehead.

"Where is Xiaomu?" Qin Ci asked.

"Go to see Shao Ling's group," Ke Xun said, "Let's go down first and see how that group is doing."

Everyone came down the stairs, but on the deck outside the central hall, a group of people were standing on the side of the ship looking towards the sea below.

"What's the matter?" A few people hurried over.

"Li Yi fell into the sea." Shao Ling answered, "It is speculated that there are many bad things and bad luck."

"Is it accidentally falling in, or... is it related to last night?" Qin Ci asked.

"I think it should be related to last night." Shao Ling leaned to give way, revealing a white robe that was accidentally hooked from the ship's gunwale. "We have all the clothes on our bodies, so this should be It is very likely that Li Yi’s illusion caused him to fall into the sea last night."

"So, all of us had hallucinations last night?" Yu Long was obviously also terrified, and his voice was shocked and trembling.

"The deceased can't be chased. Let's hurry up and collect clues." Shao Ling is as calm as ever. "Please tell me in detail about your experience last night. If you can, please try to be as small as possible. Maybe a small detail is related. The clue of the seal."

"Go to the middle hall and talk..." Chen Xinai was frightened and was a little unsteady, and was reluctantly supported by Liu Yanlei.

As everyone walked towards the central hall, Ke Xun went to the stern to find Luo Ling. He saw that the cargo was still being pumped on the deck, and his wet pants had begun to smell.

"Get out of the way," Ke Xun stepped forward and kicked him. "Go to the kitchen to get some water to wipe off. My pants are thrown away. I will find you a new one in the lower cabin."

"Really can't get up..." Luo Ling limply, rolling all the way towards the kitchen like a bug.

Ke Xun: "..."

When taking Luo Ling back to the central hall, everyone sat on the floor with a face and dignity, relatively speechless.

Ke Xun threw Luo Ling away, sat cross-legged beside Mu Yiran, and asked him: "Why, what did you guys say just now?"

"After the darkness fell last night, Li Yi lit the rhino horn in his hand." Mu Yiran said.

"So, whoever lights the rhino horn will die?" Liu Yanlei's eyes were complicated.

"Is that so?" Xue Ge, who had always been indifferent, raised his eyes and glanced at him. "Do you think the hallucinations you had last night were not enough to pose a risk of death to you?"

Liu Yanlei choked and stopped making a sound.

"Whether whoever lights the rhino horn is doomed to death, this question will be analyzed later," Shao Ling looked at everyone, "We now need to elaborate on each of our experiences last night, and then find common ground or It's a suspicious point. If you don't mind, I will come first?"

The newcomers seemed to be very convinced of Shao Ling, so no one had any objections, and the old members would not be troublesome, so they all looked at him together.

Shao Ling even prepared blank bamboo slips and pens for recording at any time.

"After the darkness fell last night, I seemed to be separated from others by an invisible barrier." Shao Ling's voice was clear and slow, "I even suspect that I had entered another parallel space at that time, because at that time I was at the door of the central hall, and when I tried to touch the door and the wall next to it, I couldn’t touch it anyway. The whole person seemed to be in a cosmic black hole, all around. It’s the open darkness without limits. I wonder if you are the same?"

Everyone nodded or expressed affirmation.

Shao Ling picked up a pen and wrote on the bamboo slips "One. Be isolated and enter a parallel space."

His move made him look calmer and more reliable. The new people's attention was more concentrated than before, and they looked at him earnestly and intently, waiting for his next words.

"But in the subsequent development, I don't think we will be the same anymore," Shao Ling continued, "because I have hallucinations afterwards, and the sound that sounds in the hallucinations is someone I personally know. People have intersections, so I speculate that maybe in the hallucinations that you appear, you are all familiar with each other, right?"

Everyone continued to nod or answer.

So Shao Ling wrote on the bamboo slips an entry of "Second, hallucinations, and their acquaintances."

"The person who appears in my hallucinations is my friend," Shao Ling further said. "Although I can't see him in the dark, his voice is very distinctive. Even if someone imitates it again, I can recognize him. Obtained, and the voice in the hallucination last night was exactly the same as his.

"Of course, under the circumstances of last night, I couldn't believe that this voice was made by him himself. He was in S City and could not appear in this painting.

"But my steadfastness did not last long.'He' was very frightened and panicked, and kept asking me where this was and what was going on. He said he should sleep in his own bed in city S and why he would Appear here? Why is there such an incredible and terrifying thing happening?

"The weird situation expressed in his words, if it were placed in the past, I would not believe it, but the fact that I entered the world in the painting completely collapsed my materialism, and I began to doubt whether he was like me. I also accidentally entered the world of painting, so as to whether this'him' is really my friend, my original negative beliefs were shaken.

"You may understand that the reason why the liar's deception can deceive many sane, sober, and even highly-educated people is not because the liar has a higher IQ, but because the liar has captured people’s firm beliefs. The only wave of sway is like a tiny crack in a solid wall. The crooks penetrate all the holes, digging into it, attacking the heart, until the whole wall collapses from the inside.

"So last night, I was scheming by this deception, and even almost changed from being'slightly shaken' to completely believing.

"My friend, for me, is more intimate than my own hands and feet. We are a fateful friendship. Some people say that almost all friendships can share adversity, but cannot share prosperity. He is not.

"He can control my property at will. I can trust him, just as he can trust me. We have never concealed anything between us, and we have never avoided any taboo. The relationship is as close as one person, and even a word of the other can go through fire and water for each other.

"So for the fear and helplessness he showed last night, I will inevitably be shaken. I'm afraid that if this is true, he is really trapped in the painting by that mysterious force, then I must not let it go. Leave him alone.

"To be cautious, I asked him a lot of things that only the two of us know, even some very small details, and he was able to answer that the score is not bad, I almost completely believe it, he is my friend The deity, until on the last question, he showed his feet.

"The last question, I asked him: If this terrible world is destined for the two of us to survive only one, do you want to live by yourself, or do you want me to live, or, want to die here with me?

"His answer is, then die here with me. As I said earlier, we are a fateful friendship, in order to be able to go through fires and waters, and even sacrifice our lives for each other, then his answer does not sound wrong.

"But the problem is, if the other person is the real him, when I ask this question, he will not answer, but will scold me. There are some things between friends that do not have to be resorted to. Once the words are spoken, No matter how heavy it is, it will become as light as a feather.

"Of course, each pair of friends has different ways of getting along with each other, but my friends and I belong to this type, probably the so-called tacit mode.

"So I suddenly understood that the fear and panic displayed by'he' is just the illusion that he uses my care for my friend to trick me into him. The ultimate goal of'he' is to make me Walking over, there is the sea a few meters away. Once I pass, what you will be looking for in the sea today is probably the bodies of me and Li Yi."

When Shao Ling said this, he glanced at the expressions on everyone’s faces and slightly nodded: “It seems that the hallucinations that everyone experienced last night were similar, and they were almost deceived into the sea. If anyone’s experience is different, Please also point it out."

Everyone shook their heads, and Shao Ling wrote the third article on the bamboo slips: "3. Use acquaintances to trick people into the sea."

He immediately raised his head and looked at everyone: "Then I would like to ask again, do the acquaintances in your illusion, like the situation I encountered, are all clear about the details and bits of your relationship?"

Everyone nodded together this time.

Shao Ling made another note after the third article just now: "Has the ability to read memory."

"It now appears that Li Yi is the only one who failed to see through the scam," Shao Ling said. "But perhaps, his death was related to the lighting of rhino horns, in order to verify which of the two possibilities caused the death The direct reason is that we need to continue to organize everyone’s experience last night..."

"Sorry, let me in." Ke Xun raised his hand and met Shao Ling's gaze. "Is Li Yi igniting the rhino horn before you have discussed it, or is it his own act? Where is that rhino horn that was lit? Where is it now?"
