    These white fish aroused the familiar sense of horror.

    "I never thought that this kind of fish can still be eaten." Wei Dong frowned, and subconsciously moved away from the oily paper bag that smelled of dried salted fish.

    "Yes, the fat uncle saw that I was hesitant, so he ate a fish tail on the spot..." Luo Ling recalled the appearance of the fat uncle eating the fish tail and still had lingering fears.

    Everyone: "..."

    Shao Ling: "The fish in this world are like this?"

    Luo Ling: "This should be a kind of fish unique to the Cold Night Journey. It is a relatively precious ingredient... It is said that this fish is not only delicious, but also has a powerful effect of warming and warming the cold. Even if you walk into the ice and snow outside, you will not feel cold."

    "Cold Night Brigade, how many brigades are there in this place?" Cao Youning interjected, "Who can tell me about geography here?"

    The task of explanation fell on Qin Ci again: "In fact, there are some maps and road guides in our public package. It states that there are four insurgents in this world, which is what people often say here. The Four Brigades'. The Four Brigades have very different climatic conditions because of the different light they receive."

    Cao Youning looked at Qin Ci with some admiration. I don't know when this person got such a thorough understanding of the basic terrain of the world.

    Qin Ci continued: “According to our role setting here, we are all from the Bright Brigade, which should be the brightest place among the four Brigades. I don’t know what the light sources are, I only know that Bright Brigade is a foreign traveler. The place you yearn for is called "the place chosen by the gods." Although the daytime of the lamp brigade is not as good as that of the Guangming brigade commander, it is ranked as the second livable adversary. The most important thing is that there is ample fire and lights It can also illuminate the brigade;

    "The third fluorite brigade is relatively darker and colder, and there is no fire source. People there rely on the unique fluorite in the brigade for lighting, which is the kind of fluorite used in our homemade projectors;

    "In the end, it was the Cold Night Journey. According to the data, there was no one living there. Although it was called a Journey, no one built a house there. It was dark all year round and there was no light."

    Everyone listens carefully. Before, I had only vague concepts about the Four Brigades. After listening to Qin Ci's words today, I have a better understanding of the distribution of inverse brigades in this world.

    "But I think Uncle Fatty and they seem to be particularly yearning for the Cold Night Travel, saying there are good products there," Luo Ling said, "He said that these white fish are precious and good products, and the supply in other brigade is in short supply. As for the Cold Night Travel, is it right? There are other secrets, he didn't say."

    "Is he still coveting Xinchun?" Mu Yiran asked.

    Luo Ling nodded: "He said that only spirit dogs can take people to the cold night journey, and Xinchun is a spirit dog."

    Xinchun was very interested in the word "spirit dog". At this moment, she stood straight with her legs straight, her eyes widened, as if she was listening to an extraordinary event.

    "Does he want to cooperate?" Mu Yiran asked further.

    "It's my brother-in-law," Luo Ling gave a thumbs up. "He was for this purpose, knowing that we would definitely not lend him Xinchun, so he tried every means to let us go to the cold night tour with them, saying that we can't lose money. We, Hanye Journey has something good."

    Ke Xun looked at the good things on the table-the marinated white fish. I believe that no one of you has the appetite to eat them, so he temporarily put them away: "It's getting late, and the people are all there. Let's Still talk while eating."

    Mai Peng also said, "The film is almost ready, and you can watch it in a while."

    "That's OK, all have to eat first." Ke Xun has already set the meal.

    But Mai Peng said: "My throat hurts so much that I can't eat it anymore."

    This sentence caught Qin Ci's attention: "Your throat hurts? Didn't you have obvious cold symptoms yesterday? Why do you have a sore throat now?"

    Mai Peng couldn't explain it himself, this is indeed a very strange thing.

    Qin Ci has already stepped forward and asked Mai Peng to stand by a lamp: "Open your mouth and I will look at your throat."

    In order to be able to see clearly, Qin Ci turned on the phone's lighting and frowned and observed for a while: "It's strange that you have tonsils and some ulcers now. Ordinarily, this should not be a manifestation of a bad cold."

    Mai Peng cleared his throat and drank some water to make it more comfortable: "Yes, yes, I have never caught a cold in this order."

    "Sequence?" Qin Ci grabbed the vocabulary. "This seems to be a retrograde order."

    "Yes, my health is pretty good. I usually catch a cold for three or four days! According to the usual sequence, I have a sore throat on the first day, a stuffy nose on the second day, sneezing and a runny nose on the third day, and basically carry it on the fourth day. Passed."

    Qin Ci looked at Mu Yiran with a serious expression: "Mai Peng is right. This is the normal sequence of colds. I think that the cold is happening to Mai Peng in reverse."

    "Reverse happening?" Many people are not calm, Lu Heng first said: "Could it be that this is a...turning back in time?"

    Yes, many people think so, time in this world is retrograde.

    "No wonder it's called Nitra, and the time is so chaotic. In fact, the time here is retrograde!" Cao Youning was so surprised that he didn't even bother to eat.

    Zhu Haowen said faintly: "This is not logical."

    "What logic?" Cao Youning asked back, "My beard is proof. When I first came here, I suddenly became unshaven. I woke up this morning and got shorter! Isn't this evidence of going back in time?"

    "No," Zhu Haowen expressionlessly, "If time really goes back, we won't be able to finish these words smoothly, move forward smoothly, eat smoothly...all our actions and everything will be reversed."

    Everyone was quiet, and Shao Ling said for a while, "He made sense. The time in this world is not completely reversed, but there are signs of retrograde in some places."

    Ke Xun has pulled Mu Yiran down and sat at the table: "Eat first, and the lights will be turned off immediately. No one wants to eat in the dark. We can discuss it when we are full and have enough strength. We haven't done a lot of things yet, see what's new. The film that came out was enlarged and studied the four photos of Baiyu, all of them sat down and eat!"

    The speculation about time could not be fully understood for a while, and everyone simply sat down to eat.

    When the meal was near the end, the light went out.

    The darkness brought a familiar panic, especially a few newcomers. After all, Xi Shengnan did indeed die last night, and the corpse was now put in the coffin and hung outside in the cold.

    Under the cool lighting of fluorite and mobile phones, everyone cleaned up the wooden table after dinner and set up the projector.

    The "viewing" effect at night is really better, the light curtain looks particularly bright on the dark wall.

    Because they are already familiar with the technique, Luo Ling and Wei Dong are responsible for pulling the film in the projector as usual. The two people cooperated more tacitly, and there is no sign of hand shaking.

    "This is Xiao Du's film. There must be some scenery of the outside world in it," Wei Dong managed to relax the atmosphere, "I don't know what the first one will be."

    Du Lingyu did not speak, and stared at the light curtain with both eyes. She knew very well that this was a new roll of film, because she had emptied the photo memory in the camera in the real world, so it wouldn’t be there. There are any traces of the previous.

    Came into this strange world without any muddle, as if to show some farewell.

    Mai Peng's words caused her panic. There were only a dozen films in this roll. Where did the previous ones go? Is it true that the saying goes back in time, the previous ones were used by the previous self? Then cut it out and washed it out? The remaining dozens of photos were put back into the camera?

    "Brother-in-law! Brother Haowen! Brother Qin!" Luo Ling called out Du Lingyu from her imagination with a sudden exclamation. She hurriedly looked at the big light curtain on the wall...

    This negative film is a bit false, but it does not affect the recognition of the characters above, because these characters are relatively close to the camera, and these are members that everyone is very familiar with.

    “Because I don’t know what I’m going to take, I can’t judge the distance, let alone focus. I can only choose the commonly used aperture collocation according to the speed,” Mai Peng explained to everyone, “According to Brother Mu’s suggestion, I will try my best I kept the slow speed, there is no tripod, so I can only fix the camera on the table to try to be stable."

    Ke Xun glanced at the picture, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable in his heart, as if his heart had contracted into a cold hard mass, which could not be relieved for a long time.

    Ke Xun heard Zhu Haowen's slightly hoarse voice: "This is how many seconds it takes."

    Mai Peng explained: "We are after the slowest speed, so I used door B."

    "What is door B?"

    "That is a manual shutter. When the speed is longer than 30 seconds, you can choose B door. It is completely controlled manually. As long as the finger is pressed on it, the exposure can be maintained for a few minutes." Mai Peng said, "Strange The thing is, the speed of this camera has changed from 1/2 second, and the slower speed is difficult to use, it seems to be a little malfunctioning, so I can only choose Bu, the manual exposure time was about 10 seconds."

    Cao Youning said on the side: “Without a remote switch and a tripod, it’s pretty bad to be able to take a picture like this in 10 seconds. We calculated it at the beginning. The picture taken in 10 seconds may be the scene ten hours ago , But if it’s doubled, it's possible to take photos a few days ago."

    The light curtain was trembling slightly, and Wei Dong's hand was shaking: "Sorry, I'm a little bit... I can't stand it anymore. I feel uncomfortable when I see this picture, and I don't know what's wrong."

    Because the camera was fixed on the table, it was the scene from the front of the table to the cabinet. Four people were captured inside. Standing by the table, Qin Ci could vaguely see the outline of the facial features, but it was imaginary. Even so, I can still see it vaguely. Qin Ci's expression at the time was very bad; Mu Yiran was far away, alone in the local area. Because of his profile face, he couldn't see his expression anymore, but it was vague. The silhouette of's can make people feel some kind of powerful aura, as if it has condensed the air of the entire insurgency; the farthest one is Luo Ling, standing next to the cabinet and seems to be fighting with someone, most of whom is there. Outside of the lens, it is hard to recognize who it is.

    "That person is me." Wei Dong said.

    "Brother Dong, how are you..."

    "It's me, sixth sense."

    Luo Ling: "But why do we fight..."

    "I don't know, maybe something has happened..." Wei Dong tried to get rid of the depression.

    The focal point on the negative was on the face of the nearest Zhu Haowen, who was sitting at the table at the time, his face was clearest, and he was crying.

    Zhu Haowen was crying blankly.

    Everyone present was trying to guess the story behind this photo, but they did not dare to guess at a certain level.

    In the end, Fang Fei broke his silence: "Obviously, this was not a matter of a few hours or more than ten hours ago. It should have been a few days ago or even longer."

    "But, we weren't here yet..." Du Lingyu said.

    "Time is chaotic. Fortunately, we can still use the camera to take pictures." Fang Fei said, "Something must have happened at the time."

    Although I can't think of specific things, the gaffe of everyone in the photo has caused everyone's anxiety.

    When everyone was habitually looking for Mu Yiran to gain a sense of security, they found that this person did not know when he stood in the corner farthest from the light curtain, as if he was unwilling or afraid to continue to look at the picture.

    Someone in the dark patted their hands gently, and finally everyone's eyes stayed on Ke Xun's face.

    "Although I don't know what happened in the photo that caused the collapse of the sky, it was an event at another time and has nothing to do with us now," Ke Xun's voice has a calming tone, "In case, in case. Time is retrograde, and if the previous events really force us to experience it again, then we have at least a choice."

    "What choice?" Du Lingyu asked.

    "Before that terrible thing happened, we found the signature and went out." Ke Xun said, "The past and the future are all imaginary. What we provide is clues, not facts."
