"We found your passengers in the Devil's City. They are all dead."
Entering the Devil City to verify the results can be done at any time, but for Sima Tian's psychological test, every minute and every second is the last chance.
As soon as these words came out, Sima Tian was obviously stunned, as if he remembered something, his whole face was twisted in this painful thought.
It seems that a painful memory is reappearing, and it seems that some force is preventing him from recalling this memory.
"How can it be……
I obviously, obviously, went out in time and asked for help...
Why……"
Sima Tian, who was in extreme pain, shouted intermittently, with a painful expression on his face, like an extreme explosion of suppressed emotions.
Is it an instinctive denial of established facts?
In other words, all of Sima Tian's tour group were really dead. Sima Tian, who was trapped in self-blame, encountered a replicating machine in the depths of the Devil City. Driven by this obsession, the outside of the Devil City Then Sima Tian appeared who went out to ask for help.
Did you just give it a try and reveal all the secrets of this place?
A group of people traveling led by Sima Tian accidentally entered the ancient ruins deep underground in Devil City. Everyone died inside. Sima Tian, who was driven crazy by the cruel reality, was absorbed by the replicating machine.
Under Sima Tian's strong obsession, a copy of Sima Tian who went out to seek help was immediately copied outside the Devil City.
The bizarre and slightly weird facts are like a fantasy ghost story.
Bai Ning glanced at Liu Cheng, who was about to look dumbfounded, and gave him a timid look.
"Let you pretend to be a ghost!
Coward, look at me, I can't beat you to death! "
Feeling that Sima Tian was playing tricks, and taking Bai Ning's hint, Liu Cheng raised his hand and slapped him.
Amidst the crisp blows, Sima Tian fell down, and his whole body began to twitch violently, as if he had suddenly fallen into some inexplicable chaos.
"broken.
You're not really sick, are you? "
Liu Cheng saw Sima Tian twitching as if he was having epilepsy. He was afraid that he had killed someone, so he quickly helped him up.
But Sima Tian, whose whole body was convulsing, had no intention of calming down, and even started foaming at the mouth, which almost made Liu Cheng urinate.
"Brother, don't die.
Brother, I'm joking with you.
elder brother. "
Flustered and confused, Liu Cheng violently shook Sima Tian, who was foaming at the mouth, almost making him shed tears.
"Don't panic, lay him flat on the ground and leave him alone."
Seeing that the situation on the field was indeed getting a bit out of control, Bai Ning could only yell loudly, forcing the panicked Liu Cheng to calm down.
Sima Tian, who was placed on the ground, was still foaming at the mouth, as if he was about to die.
First aid, there is no such condition here, so we can only let it continue to develop.
After a while, the convulsing Sima Tian finally calmed down. His breath was very weak, and it was only like this when he was dying of a critical illness.
"Is it possible that there is something wrong with Sima Tian's body that is reflected on the clone at this time?
If a slap can cause it to fall into chaos, this clone would be too fragile. "
Jiang Yingxue looked at Sima Tian on the ground coldly and made her own judgment on the current phenomenon.
“Whether it is yes or no will have to be determined by subsequent exploration of the facts.
Looking at his state, I'm afraid he will die completely if he enters the Devil's City again, but I don't worry about leaving him alone here.
Leave some people to move the camp and let the others come over as soon as possible. "
Since it was an urgent situation, the convoy arrived here more than ten minutes later. After specifically instructing Sima Tian to be tied up and tightly guarded, Bai Ning led the people back into the Devil's City.
I don’t know if the timing is wrong, but this time there is no such feeling of demonic sound penetrating my ears in the Devil City.
Amidst the gentle breeze, even if there are occasional whining wind sounds like ghosts crying and wolves howling, they are just like the low hum of Tao Xun, with a sad and long aftertaste.
Although there was no longer the whimpering sound of the demonic sound that penetrated my ears, for some reason, the surrounding wind and sand were gradually rising, and a light layer of sand and dust had been blown outside the stone forest.
“Does the restriction here require Sima Tian to trigger it?
Or maybe your previous suspicion was right. That Sima Tian was just pretending, and there was nothing abnormal at all. "
After wandering around for a while, apart from experiencing the twists and turns of the stone forest scenery, I didn't find even a ghost.
When Jiang Yingxue asked this question, she felt like she was coming back from being deceived.
"This stone forest cannot interfere with the signal of the walkie-talkie. If something happens outside, there will naturally be an early warning.
Devil City is full of ravines and hidden secrets. If the clues could be seen so easily, the people who discovered the secrets here would not be Sima Tian and others. "
Bai Ning seemed very patient, but the expression on his face revealed a coldness, making it impossible to guess whether he was telling the truth or not.
The team continued to search in silence. In the end, even if all the people were dispersed, they did not find any abnormalities in the stone forest.
It's very strange, there isn't even a decent downward secret cavity.
If you discard the various supernatural phenomena that you have previously associated with him, this result can only prove that Sima Tian did lie.
All the previous tragic scenes were just a good show put on by Sima Tian. The purpose was to make Bai Ning and others relax their vigilance so that he could take the opportunity to escape.
"What, do we need to retry Sima Tian?"
During the previous dispersed search process, Jiang Yingxue had already contacted the outside through the walkie-talkie. Sima Tian had woken up but remained silent.
The situation in the field instantly became complicated, and Bai Ning frowned subconsciously, which surprised Jiang Yingxue.
The situation is very clear, why is Bai Ning still confused?
Could it be that Bai Ning felt very unhappy because he was deceived by a liar like Sima Tian and wasted so much time and energy?
"We may not be able to get out for a while."
When Bai Ning said these words, Jiang Yingxue was so shocked that a rare look of disbelief appeared on her face.
What is his brain circuit?
Even if Sima Tian is a real clone, even if this devil city does have some weird mechanisms, but you can leave if you can enter, and the terrain here is not complicated, how can they not get out?
Could it be that we have entered some fantasy maze again?
"What can't we get out of? If I remember correctly, we can leave after crossing the stone pillar and turning a few more corners."
Liu Cheng, who was shopping all the way, also felt a little incredible. The terrain here is much simpler than the reed swamp. Isn't it simple to go out?
After saying this, Liu Cheng took the lead in walking in the direction of the exit he identified, but when he turned around, he appeared at the end of the team.
“What’s going on, why am I at the end of the line?
I obviously remember it very clearly. "
At this time, Liu Cheng felt like he had hit a ghost. Even if he remembered it wrong, there was absolutely no way he could just turn a corner and come to the end of the team, right?
It was so sudden that the entire team fell into panic.
They had spread out and searched everywhere before, but why were they trapped in a dead place in the blink of an eye?
Moreover, it looks like an infinite loop of space.
Such a trap also means that even if they leave for a lifetime, they will not be able to leave here.
Now that all the supplies have been left outside the Devil City, they probably only have a day or two left in their lives.
The hinterland of the desert is short of water and dry, and the heat is unbearable during the day. In less than a day, they will collectively be short of water and soon die of thirst in this stone forest.
"Do you know that ghosts break walls?
What we are encountering now is a wall of ghosts. "
I originally thought that Bai Ning would come up with a high-level argument to explain the current predicament, but unexpectedly he gave a slightly ridiculous answer.
If this was the upper level of an ancient tomb with a replicating machine, there should also be some man-made maze traps.
It seems a bit too far-fetched to use ghosts to attack the wall to explain the phenomenon here.
"The so-called ghost hitting the wall means that when walking at night or in the suburbs, you can't tell the direction, your self-perception is blurred, and you don't know where to go, so you always keep walking in circles.
This phenomenon is mainly caused by the different stride lengths of people's legs.
In this stone forest, there is such an invisible ring, which constantly induces our steps to shift inward.
Eventually, we will be circled back and forth in a small circle in the center.
Even if we sent a large number of people to disperse and search before, it was of no use. The stone forest here is so complicated that if you are not a particularly keen person, you will not be able to detect this whirlpool maze hidden in it.
This kind of maze that takes advantage of the inherent flaws of human beings is similar to the Bagua enchantment array deployed through visual illusions. It can be regarded as a kind of external anti-theft measure. "
Bai Ning's explanation was concise but not simple. His rhetoric also hinted that they were only temporarily trapped in such a maze.
After learning about this stone forest hiding a maze of swirling formations, Jiang Yingxue had already recovered from her previous state of shock, and because of the huge contrast, she felt a little dull about it.
"Are you saying that Sima Tian's tour group was also trapped and died here, and finally entered the underground tomb area in this central ring?
However, since it is an external anti-theft device, who would place the entrance to the tomb where the tomb robbers were finally imprisoned?
Even if there is some unexpected intention in such a move, people's explosive power under extreme circumstances is extremely strong. Under the extreme desire to survive, it is very likely that they will dig out underground tombs unintentionally.
Therefore, no matter from which perspective, it is inappropriate to set the tomb passage here. "
If Sima Tian's experience is true, then the last place where their tour group disappeared should be here.
But this idea obviously has big loopholes. Jiang Yingxue felt that Bai Ning would not think like this, but she was also a little unsure, so she could only answer the question.
