Chapter 204 Burning Rhinoceros at Sea Figure 17┃ Chicken.
The thick darkness was like thick smoke drawn by a range hood, rolling away in clusters.
When the 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 beside him, and after a while, tears fell steadily.
"Xue Ge is gone." Ke Xun went out, picked up the bamboo slips Xue Ge 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.
"Say 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 there be a chicken in the vast ocean? 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 that's the case, I will write ‘flower’ or ‘Shan’ directly," Zhu Haowen said while tracing his legs with his fingers, "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, then it seems that what Xue Ge saw last night, Shiyou ** is something that starts with the word'chicken'."
"So will there be a chicken in the sea? Cockscomb and feather duster are also 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 talking, suddenly Fang Fei, who had been stunned by him, stood up and was about to walk outside.
Ke Xun got 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 his face, but his expression has calmed down, and there is a resolute expression in the strange calm, "Go find Yu Long's body."
Ke Xun didn't stop him, only exhorted: "Tie a rope on his waist."
Although knowing that she will find nothing in the end, let her vent it.
"What was your illusion last night?" Wei Dong looked at Fang Fei's back, a little sorrowful.
"I don't want to mention it." Ke Xun said, a flash of anger between his brows.
Wei Dong knew him better than anyone else, thinking that the phantom designation 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 hit last night. At the beginning, there were a lot of illusions that confuse me to leave the place, and I survived. Later, I felt that time passed for a long time, and the illusion gradually disappeared. After a while, I heard Kerr say, "It's almost dawn, it's okay", and there are footsteps in the darkness and start to move, Hao Wener also said "I'm going to the toilet."
"In fact, I was holding a pee. At first, I wanted to follow it out to 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 may be so embarrassed that he hit his girlfriend...
"The young couple was always awkward, I didn't doubt it, and everything was so realistic. Fang Fei was beaten and fell directly to my feet. I subconsciously helped her, and then'Kerr' became angry. I know that Kerr looks down on people who beat women the most, 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 want 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's a small gang of gangsters near the school. They ran to our school to find trouble. The goal was a mutual friend of Kerr and I. Kerr was going to help. I was about to follow. I was pressed down by Kerr. Kerr said to me at the time: The other party is all social gangsters. When you move your hands, you don't want to be light or heavy, just go hard, don't come, your hand is holding a paintbrush, and you will use it to earn money to support your family in the future.
"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 before relaxing.
"It turns out that the illusion is really fucking 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 toilet?"
"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 getting more and more sophisticated. First, let us confuse us with a illusion, so that we preconceived that this is the main show. When this illusion passes, when we relax our vigilance , And then a more confusing illusion."
"Are you awakened by the illusion from the fainting?" Mu Yiran asked him lightly.
Shao Ling lowered his eyes and let out a "huh".
Obviously, the syncope method he chose did not work.
"I think that the illusion of every night is not created and superimposed according to the five senses." Mu Yiran said another lightly.
Shao Ling raised his eyes and stared at him, the man 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 didn’t mind Shao Ling’s scrutinizing gaze, “and what’s worth noting is that we continued After everyone has experienced the illusion that disgusts us, it seems that what we experienced last night was an illusion that will make us lose control of our emotions. More precisely, it is an illusion that irritates us. Of course, this point needs to be asked. Everyone can be sure afterwards."
"Mine is like this," said Ke Xun, who sat next to him. "The phantom 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, and 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 According to 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 next four nights will be joy, sorrow, fear, Want 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 didn't say anything anymore, each looking down, exploring the weakest part of their hearts.
Mu Yiran's gaze fell on the bamboo slip with the word "chicken" 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 Xue Ge was last night. "To put it coldly, someone like Xue Ge who has a short life span, any emotions may cause some interference to her, but it can make her Unable to endure and lose 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 The belief in survival has ended oneself 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 outside the door.
"Girl, the deceased is dead. There is no need to despise your life because of this." Qin Ci healer's parents looked at the red eyes with pity, but never showed any fragility of this young girl.
"Don't get me wrong," Fang Fei looked calm, "I am 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 Ling couldn’t help suggesting: “Don’t you have a knife in the kitchen? Or Miss Sister, take one tonight and give it a knife when you see the chicken. Try?"
"If this is the case, Fang Fei will not be able to be in the same room with us." Shao Ling is still sensible and calm. "Otherwise, I am afraid that we will be stabbed by 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."
