Chapter 189 Suspicion
It has been a day and a night since we came to this world. Not to mention food, we have not even had a sip of water. If we continue like this, we will die of thirst without looking for those weird things.
So everyone decided to spread out in search of water and food.
At the same time, because of the curse mentioned by the people of Blackstone Town, only if the flame on the lighthouse is not extinguished can the curse be escaped, so someone has to be left to guard the flame.
After the motorcycle girl happened, everyone felt eerie even during the day. In the end, except for the old woman, we decided to stay with two more people, so that they could take care of each other.
Su Xiaoxiao used the excuse that her younger brother had difficulty moving, and hoped to stay, but Jiang Cheng and Chenran jointly rejected it. The reason was that Su An had strong senses, and it was unknown whether he might find new clues when he went out for a walk.
The last ones left behind were Chenran and Diplodocus.
Liang Long felt bad after hearing the news, and seemed to want to fight for it again.
But Jiang Cheng turned around and left with the fat man. Su Xiaoxiao also left after taking another look at Chenran and the old woman in the corner.
Diplodocus seemed to want to follow them, but after noticing the inexplicable sight behind her, she seemed to have lost the ability to move. After being stunned for a while, she sat down obediently.
Chenran still had that kind face, but it was not facing Diplodocus, but the nagging old woman on the other side.
A strong sense of crisis climbed up little by little along the spine of Diplodocus.
Jiang Cheng took Fatty for a walk on the beach. The waves hit their feet, and their trouser legs were wet. The soles of their feet stepped into the wet shoes, making a strange "crunching" sound.
Jiang Cheng stared at his feet and glanced at the sea from time to time, with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Doctor," the fat man asked curiously: "What are you looking at?"
"The sea is so clean," Jiang Cheng said.
"It's quite clean. Look at how fine the sand is." The fat man pushed aside a layer of fine sand on the ground with his feet, revealing that the sand underneath was still very fine. Putting aside the crisis here, it was really a good place. resort.
“That’s not what I’m talking about,” Jiang Cheng breathed out, looking at the path moistened by the sea water under his feet, and continued: “It’s low tide time now, and the tidal flats have been exposed. People who live by the sea will choose to rush to the beach. During this time, we come to pick up fish, shrimps, conchs and other things trapped in low-lying areas that are unable to return to the sea due to low tide.”
He. Pointing to the wide area in front of him, "But look, let alone fish and shrimps, there are not even half a dead shell. The sea seems to be empty."
The fat man blinked. , then as if he had come to his senses, he nodded and said, "Doctor, don't tell me yet. When I first came here, I was also thinking about why this beach is so clean. It turns out to be like this."
Such a situation would definitely not occur in the real sea under normal conditions. The fat man seemed to have thought of something, his face suddenly changed and he said: "Doctor, is this a sign of something going to happen?"
He licked it He licked his lips, glanced back and forth, and continued: "I remember hearing something like this. It probably meant that fishermen along the coast discovered something unusual near the seaside. Not long after, a catastrophe occurred, and many people died. .”
Jiangcheng Shaking his head, "No, the situation you mentioned should be a sign before a tsunami comes. Tsunamis are usually caused by fractures of the seafloor crust, landslides, or volcanic eruptions."
"Usually manifested as: Deep-sea creatures, such as oarfish, are stranded on the shore in large numbers, whales collide with each other for no reason, and commit suicide in the shoals. This is exactly the opposite of the current situation. "
The current situation is that the coast is too clean, what? None.
The fat man swallowed his saliva, looked at Jiang Cheng, and asked in a low voice: "Doctor, do you have any ideas?"
The abnormality here is obvious, but for people like Jiang Cheng, abnormality also means that There are clues.
In his nightmare, he was not worried about things or phenomena that seemed weird, but was afraid that everything seemed reasonable.
Touching his chin, Jiang Cheng seemed to be thinking too.
After waiting for a long time, the fat man who didn’t see Jiang Cheng talking to him couldn’t sit still. He paused, and then said in a pleading tone: “Doctor, just tell me what you think of. Don’t hide it. You said, I'm a little scared now."
Jiang Cheng rarely took the opportunity to scare him, but said directly: "Two situations," he said: "First, this place was affected by some strange force, which led to the current situation."
The fat man looked at Jiang Cheng and asked after a while: "What about second place?"
"Huh——" Jiang Cheng He exhaled and looked up into the fat man's eyes. The latter couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "Fat man," Jiang Cheng said slowly, "I suspect this is not our world at all."
The fat man paused for a few seconds after hearing this. Bell, and then the whole person began to tremble. The doctor's words completely subverted the two people's previous assumptions about the nightmare.
In the original speculation, the nightmare really existed, and was a real history intercepted by some force along the long river of time. In other words, it had a beginning and an end.
No matter what the person selected in does, whether he lives or dies, it will not affect the outcome of this matter as a real event.
All they can influence is the process.
But if the nightmare is not the real world, but really just an illusory dream, then it naturally does not need to abide by the beginning and end summarized by real events.
More importantly, logic.
So.! !
It's probably unsolvable!
In other words, no matter what they do, what clues they get, or whether they uncover the truth, the final outcome is death. The method of death may be illogical, bizarre, or even nonsensical.
Tsunami, earthquake, sudden collapse of buildings, or even a few monsters popping out of thin air and tearing a few people apart
These are all possible.
After all, dreams do not require logic. They are just an inexplicable carrier that is fictitious and exists in illusion.
"Medical doctor" The fat man's teeth trembled at the thought, and his eyes bulged slightly, "You are talking about us."
Jiang Cheng only glanced at the fat man and roughly guessed what he was thinking. , "This is just the most extreme example. There is a high probability that it is not that bad. At least the missions we have experienced before have traces to follow."
"Maybe." Jiang Cheng thought for a while, but finally did not speak.
"Doctor," the fat man said, "please let me know how to die. Next time I am reincarnated, I will know how to tell others in advance."
Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment before speaking. Said: "Maybe. I mean maybe, this is just another expression of the world we live in, um. Another way of expression."
"Method of expression?" The fat man stared at the doctor blankly, obviously not understanding what the latter meant.
“You can understand that this place is real in our world, but this is not our world, but” he paused, raised his eyes and said, “a reflection of the world we live in.”
