Chapter 417 Cause and Effect
"White..."
Before he finished speaking, Song Que saw the man standing next to Bai Yanliang, and his expression changed slightly.
This person is none other than Bai Yan, whom I met in the Moon Gate under the sea!
Thinking of what the other party had said, he knew that maybe he couldn't be kind today.
"You said, this is not the trolley problem, what is your answer?"
Song Que didn't look at Bai Yanren again, but turned his attention to Bai Yanliang.
Bai Yanliang stared at him, and there seemed to be something hidden in his eyes. Song Que seemed to understand, but Bai Yanliang said: "Your lifeboat cannot hold so many people. From the beginning, only two people can be saved."
"We, too."
This sentence made Song Que startled. He asked the old housekeeper to go down temporarily to arrange the rescue matters, while he asked: "What do you mean we are the same?"
Bai Yanliang turned his head and looked to his side: "He is my brother. What we are about to face is a world-destroying crisis."
"In this crisis, we do not have the ability to save the entire world, let alone protect everyone, but... we also have a ship that can carry a small number of people and escape this crisis."
"Song Que, you are my chosen one."
Bai Yanliang looked at him.
Song Que turned his head and glanced at his arm. Logically speaking, his arm had been completely destroyed in the last fog incident. But with the help of that woman, his body completely defied common sense and recovered. .
Not healing, not repairing, but...restoration.
It was like that arm had gone back in time, intact as before.
This made Song Que realize more clearly that a group of "new humans" with powers that did not belong to humans had indeed appeared in this world.
What's even more ridiculous is that according to the other party, she is one of them, and she is one of the people who had power earlier than her.
She calls the power she possesses - the mind's eye.
It's not that he's playing with his mind, but he can use vision similar to "telepathy" to see more essential things. Being able to see in the dark is just the basics. He can even directly see the "soul" of humans.
At this moment, Song Que smiled: "Actually, for a long time, I thought you were a ghost."
He looked at Bai Yanliang.
"Because from your body, I can't see any outline of a human soul. In other words... you seem to be an empty shell without a soul."
Song Que's voice was still very confused.
"But later, I saw with my own eyes that something similar to [soul] was born from your body... just after Qi Nian died."
Song Que stared at him: "You have a mind and a soul, but my eyes cannot see your soul. I didn't understand why until some time ago."
"Bai Yanliang..."
Song Que's eyes wandered between the two brothers.
"You didn't have a soul before, it's just that my eyes couldn't see it... What I could see was the human soul. That body that looked like an empty shell to me didn't have a soul, but... it was Completely transparent, after Qi Nian died, a cluster of red was born in it. I am very familiar with this red, it is the color of the human soul..."
"And today, at this moment, you standing in front of me..."
Song Que's voice, against the backdrop of the bloody storm outside the window, seemed to be shocking at any moment.
"Just the opposite..."
The confusion in his voice was like substance.
"In your body, inside the transparent and chaotic soul body, there is a cluster of amazing red color, like a leaping flame..."
"And your brother, Mr. Bai Yanren, the red soul body in his body has become empty from the middle."
"You...one of you is turning into a human, and the other one is turning into what?"
Song Que's questioning voice echoed in the ears of the two brothers.
——Under the cave.
The sudden arrival of casualties left everyone speechless.
However, this does not stop this exploration.
The team continued down, but the further down they went, the more herbs they had never seen before appeared around the walls.
Their colors are also completely different from what they should be in nature.
It was a...grey and rundown color.
Ren Wudao mingled among the crowd. It was his first time coming to this place.
However, he had one more message than everyone present.
That is...this cave has already existed.
Or it should be said that this cave was actually dug by Dr. Zhou Tian.
That is a story told by Zhou Tian...
That was twenty years ago.
————
"Doctor, do you want to continue digging?"
This time, the other members of the archaeological team all looked up at Zhou Tian.
Zhou Tian nodded without any hesitation.
The excavation continues.
During this period, the biggest news in Yecheng was that the construction unit digging the subway tunnel unearthed something strange.
To put it simply... there are traces of human creations underground in the center of Ye City, which are some spiral stairs.
This situation definitely meant that construction could not continue. The city immediately formed a team of experts to come and check. However, what was suspicious was that although these steps were indeed not excavated in modern times, they were even less likely to be excavated in ancient times.
Because the distance, size, and amplitude between each step are exactly the same!
Even with the use of modern tools, this is still a big project.
In ancient times when it was all about manpower, none of the experts present believed that it was possible to carve out such a facility where every step of the stairs was exactly the same.
This doesn't make sense.
As a result, the project came to a halt, and there was strong interest from all parties regarding the stairs and the place where the stairs extended downwards. What was hidden there and what era it was from.
Zhou Tian only fully joined in after discovering some herbs that were never found in the world.
He recognized at a glance that this was not something that should exist in the world, because these "plants" had no energy source at all!
Zhou Tian can't figure out how they grow at all. They don't perform photosynthesis, don't absorb nutrients from the soil, and don't even exchange materials with the world at all.
Such a thing... could only be a "plant" from another world.
Although the guess is unbelievable, it is the only answer.
After confirming that those plants did not exchange any material with the world, Zhou Tian had already confirmed.
Going down these stairs, there is definitely "another world".
Thus, the scene at this moment emerged.
The reason why other members of the archaeological team came to ask him if he should continue digging was because everyone, including Zhou Tian, had hallucinations.
As they dug deeper and deeper, almost everyone saw a... towering tree.
