He looked at the huge creature in front of him and suddenly smiled.
Chen Qing turned his head, and a crisp slap bloomed on Jiang Wan's face, and a red cloud appeared evenly on the left side of her face.
She was stunned for a while, and the pain slowly brought her back to reality.
She looked down at her fingertips, confused at first, and then asked Chen Qing who hit her: "You...what did you stop me from? It told us to go over."
"Who is it called?"
"Call... ugh!"
Before Jiang Wan could say anything, Chen Qing covered her mouth: "Why is this person so stupid..."
He lowered his voice, glanced at the physical creatures beside him with a smile, and muttered, with a bit of disdain in his eyes.
"Recall the note Zhang Lan left for us." He said: "Do you know what kind of lies are most easily deceived?"
Jiang Wan was thinking, and the thoughts in her mind became much clearer. Thinking - thinking is the greatest human behavior, it can make all the fog fade away.
"Nine truths and one lie?" She looked at Chen Qing thoughtfully, and the shadow of her uniform had completely disappeared.
But Chen Qing shook his head and flicked the note in his other hand with his fingertips: "No, but it won't be such a pure lie."
He took two steps forward, and the giant suddenly smiled on its face, but the smile on its face didn't last long. Chen Qing raised his hand and landed heavily on its face, with a clear and echoing sound. The sound was endless, and it could be heard that Chen Qing's previous slap actually left some force behind.
The look on its face was stunned, and it was about to get angry, but before it could vent its anger, Chen Qing smiled strangely, looked at it and said, "This is my mission."
"Your...mission."
It lowered its head, but Chen Qing slapped him again in an instant. His arms were dancing so much that afterimages appeared, making the rough-skinned giant blush for a while.
"I! I didn't give it to you! Your mission!"
It raised its hand, but it reached the highest altitude. At the moment when Jiang Wan couldn't bear to open her eyes, its arm still didn't fall down.
It raised its hand, and she opened her eyes tremblingly. He looked at the six or seven entities in front of him staring at him. Chen Qing understood that he had guessed the rules of this place correctly.
"Who...gave you the task."
It raised its hand and asked again.
"none of your business."
"I..." the giant hesitated for a while: "If you have a boss, then it's no problem, but if not."
It suddenly laughed.
"Yes, who said I don't have it?"
"Then tell me who your boss is!"
"none of your business."
At this moment, when Chen Qing's words left his mouth, the giant's face showed shock, fear, and a bit of embarrassment and anger after the trick failed.
"How is it possible..." It grabbed the physical clerks beside it and tore their shoulders again and again. The broken muscle fibers splashed blood on Chen Qing's face, and the broken bones caused some pain on his face.
But when he looked at the giant in front of him, he smiled.
"it is as expected."
He chuckled and took two steps back: "The rules of level 2 are already clear."
As he spoke, he grabbed Jiang Wan's hand: "It's time to go. This is my order from your superior."
But unlike Chen Qing, Jiang Wan looked at the entity creature behind him that was still roaring, with cold sweat still oozing out: "What the hell is going on!"
"Rules, the rules here are that you must unconditionally obey your boss's orders during working hours." He looked at Jiang Wan. The black curtains on both sides of the room were right in front of him. He stretched out his hand to lift them, but the world behind the curtains was different. One room.
He opened the door, and the world of concrete and gray-white stairs suddenly appeared in front of him. He vaguely remembered that before he entered the door, when he looked from the corridor, the width he saw should be as wide as a dozen rooms.
But he actually left now?
He made a "tsk" sound and looked at the third floor above.
"What do you mean? Do I understand this rule?! No, what does it mean!"
She stared, filled with doubts about this sentence. Since Chen Qing said this rule was true, why...
"It means that if you follow this rule, you will die?" She frowned: "So the rule on the note is written backwards, shouldn't we listen to him?"
Chen Qing paused for a moment and looked a little strange: "Your understanding...can't be wrong.
But I always feel that such an understanding can kill you. "
He shook his head and then began to explain: "It's not that you shouldn't listen to him, but 'when you obey the orders of a certain target, you become its subordinate'."
He looked at Jiang Wan and then continued: "Do you remember that you almost blended in with those clerks just now?"
"This...remember."
"When it says sit down, it doesn't actually appoint any of us because it's not our 'supervisor' and it doesn't have the authority to command us.
But if we respond to his request, after we sit at that desk, he will become our boss because of the rules, and he can naturally manipulate us. "
He took a breath, and then continued to explain: "And the second point is the most critical issue.
That’s why I say your understanding will kill you.
'Follow the orders of your superiors', this is indeed the rule at level 2.
At this level, you must 'obey the orders of your superiors'. Likewise, as long as your actions are in accordance with the instructions given by your superiors, everything you do will be recognized by entities within the level.
In other words, when you set yourself as your boss, you are a superman at this level, but if you inadvertently follow one of their rules, you will also be transformed into an entity. "
Jiang Wan frowned and became confused again: "So, except for the last one, all the rules on the note are fake?"
"No, of course not." Chen Qing smiled and denied her point of view: "In fact, for 'that' note, everything written on it is correct."
"Eh?"
"This back room will imitate our behavior and forge fake notes, right?"
She thought for a moment and nodded.
“So it imitated our actions and entered Level 2 as an investigator, and then it became a subordinate of a certain entity.
And this time. "
"It has to do whatever this entity tells it to do...and for it, it can survive as long as it perfectly obeys the instructions of its superiors."
Chen Qing took a breath and continued: "Because everything is due to the need to obey the orders of the superiors, none of the messages on it are false.
It can mean you can't turn off the lights, it can mean you can't eat, or it can make you work all night.
In other words, everything your 'boss' says becomes a rule for you.
So it can write whatever it wants, and none of it will be false.
Only true lies will deceive the target.
Once you follow the fourth rule, you will have countless rules to add to your list. "
As she listened, she suddenly realized: "So... in fact, the fourth article cannot be considered false."
"Yes." Chen Qing nodded and replied: "So the problem is here. The boss's order is equivalent to the rules. That is the case here. The boss's order is equivalent to heaven.
As long as you get the order from your boss, you can do anything. Exit the back room, enter the next level, and even beat up the entities in the back room. What about them? As part of the rules, they must cooperate with your orders and meet your requirements. "
Jiang Wan listened, and naturally understood everything by this time. This was a conspiracy. If the person who read the note doubted whether the information was true or false, and screened every item, he would only end up with more and more rules. confuse.
And if everything is opposed, the entity can tell you to leave this room quickly, and the moment you really step into the curtain, you will become one of them.
Jiang Wan did not dare to think about it, and squinted at Chen Qing in front of her. In this world, he lived his own wonderful life.
While the two were chatting, they finally reached the third floor even though they were slowing down. The height of this floor seemed to be much higher than the one downstairs. The first floor was nearly eight meters high. Looking around, it was astonishing. All he could see were precision-arranged transportation pipes. Those pipes were as wide as one person. The pipes were fixed with Ding Mao and iron bars. About five to six water pipes covered one wall.
Jiang Wan looked around in confusion, and then asked Chen Qing with some confusion: "Have you seen the room?"
