"So, your suggestion is that we can't provoke Sima Tian, but can only communicate with him in a gentle voice, and then hope that he will open his mind and give us a clear instruction?
Have you forgotten that the reason why the clone Sima Tian appeared is probably because of his obsession with survival.
To a certain extent, pessimistically speaking, he is just a collection of obsessions, useless except for asking for help.
Not only that, in the memory system of the clone Sima Tian, there is no information about going to the underground tomb area at all. "
Bai Ning's words were like a bucket of cold water on the head. While Jiang Yingxue felt embarrassed, it also made her fully understand the anxiety hidden in Bai Ning's heart.
There must be some useful information in the clone Sima Tian's belly, but as for the specific role of this information, this is an uncertain factor.
"If everything goes smoothly, it won't be your or my turn to answer the secrets here."
Like bringing up old things again, and like a familiar and simple joke, Jiang Yingxue's tone when she said this revealed a certain amount of absolute ease.
This is absolute trust in Bai Ning.
I have overcome such difficult moments before, so there is no reason why I should stumble on a small replica.
Not long after, several more people were added to the tent where Sima Tian was imprisoned. Liu Cheng, who was in a state of confusion the whole time, was a little confused as to why he was asked to join in.
Even a scheming person like Boss Bai finds it difficult. Does he still need Liu Cheng to be the atmosphere team?
Although he was puzzled, this did not prevent Liu Cheng from watching the show.
If there is any shortcoming, it is that I can't eat melon seeds or roast chicken.
Sima Tian, who was tied to the stool by Wu Huada, had his eyes closed. It was obvious that he was awake and knew that someone was approaching him, but he refused to open his eyes.
The body language is slightly evasive, but more likely to express an attitude of resistance to knowing the truth.
Judging from its overall performance, it is consistent with the characteristics of a normal person being kidnapped.
"Sima Tian, what, do you want me to chop off your toes one by one before you are willing to look at the world seriously?"
Bai Ning's calm tone revealed absolute murderous intent, prompting Sima Tian to immediately open his eyes.
He didn't dare to threaten because he was not qualified to threaten.
“What, you’ve been kidnapped, do you still want me to kneel on the ground and call you grandpa?
I'm just a bad tour guide, why are you kidnapping me to make some shitty money?
Besides, I just went out to ask for help. Even if I take your rescue fee and take it back, it doesn't seem to make any sense. "
The logic of Sima Tian's response continued to solidify his memory. It was obvious that he had indeed forgotten the period when he entered the Devil's City. All his memories remained on the period of collecting money and returning to the Devil's City.
At this time, Bai Ning seemed to Sima Tian to be just some sand bandits who were good at kidnapping and extorting.
"I want to ask you a very simple question. Do you remember the time when your tour group was in danger?"
Bai Ning didn't want to waste his time on this clone, and directly focused on the key issues, hitting hard on his slightly thin memory area.
As this question was asked, Sima Tian seemed to be ill again, his whole expression looked extremely ferocious.
The feeling of falling completely into madness in some kind of chaos is made more obvious by the nature of its crazy struggle.
At this moment, Sima Tian was like a robot whose running core was severely disrupted. The chaos of various instructions in the central system made him about to go berserk.
After a few minutes of confusion, the black hair on Sima Tian's head suddenly began to turn white one by one, as if his hair turned white overnight due to intense thinking.
Sima Tian, who turned pale in an instant, quickly calmed down, but his expression looked extremely haggard, as if he was in a dying state.
With his eyes slightly opened, he looked at Bai Ning, like the last gaze of an old man before his death, with a hint of seeing through the world.
"what are you saying?"
The simple question was like a rhetorical question, a mockery of Bai Ning's questioning behavior.
But judging from its current overall status, this sentence seems like a preconceived inquiry.
Logically disconnected from all previous topics, it was as if his previous painful roar had become a nightmare in his mind, so that he asked this extremely serious question.
"My question is simple. Do you remember the time when your tour group was in danger?"
Jiang Yingxue couldn't help but be surprised when this issue was mentioned again. The current Sima Tian didn't look like he could withstand the second mental torture.
Just as he was about to stop something, Sima Tian in front of him did not appear as crazy or abnormal as before, but his tired face showed a hint of thinking.
Thinking seems to be an extremely labor-intensive thing. The white hair on Sima Tian's head is getting thicker and has a tendency to become pure color and turn into snow.
"If you can't remember it, don't think about it. You don't seem to deserve to know the answer to this question."
It is most appropriate to put the oil on Sima Tian's body at this time. If they continue to let him waste time on this issue, I am afraid they will only get a corpse.
Jiang Yingxue's stop did not stop Sima Tian from thinking. The white hair on his head was still growing wildly, and soon the black hair became a supporting role.
The black hair that looked like highlights lasted for a long time and did not all turn white according to the predetermined rhythm.
This feeling is like searching for some kind of limit, and can never approach the extreme value of the range.
The graying process of hair seems to have entered a state of stagnation, which does not seem to mean the end.
Sima Tian's originally smooth skin began to be covered with wrinkles, showing a rapid physiological aging.
If the graying of hair can also be explained by excessive mental stress, then the natural aging of the skin is obviously the ruthless passage of vitality.
At this time, Sima Tian seemed to be trapped in a false independent world. In his world, time flowed extremely fast, and the aging process of the human body was also visible to the naked eye.
"This is great, it hit his death switch.
Perhaps, for these replicants, asking what they don't know is an external switch that triggers their self-destruction. "
Jiang Yingxue's tone at this time seemed a little helpless, as if she felt very sorry for Sima Tian, a rare experimental sample.
This ancient technology that can produce replicants is indeed powerful. While it can accomplish its intended purpose, it can also ensure basic information security.
Even if the clone dies, it doesn't seem to have any impact on the original body.
This kind of disposable consumable is much more cost-effective than ordinary biochemical robots.
“I don’t think so.
His extremely exaggerated aging phenomenon is nothing more than a sensational performance.
Even if he is just an insignificant copy, he is still a tangible material life form, an organic life form composed of basic cells.
An organic life form composed of tens of trillions of cells can die instantly, but if you want to complete the complex physiological process of aging quickly, which involves the replication and activity of cells, it is simply impossible to do so in a short time. Completed within. "
Bai Ning denied Sima Tian's rapid aging from a physiological level, which surprised Jiang Yingxue.
The so-called life and death, the life span of some insects is measured in days, and the metabolic speed of many small animals is not comparable to that of humans.
If the ancient technology of replicating people could learn from the cell characteristics of other species, it might be possible to create life-or-death replicants.
"Are you saying that what is presented to us is just an illusion?"
It seems to be a very simple method to label various phenomena that violate common sense as hallucinations, but it is indeed not very clever.
Even interpreted more seriously, this is an act of self-deception.
Jiang Yingxue mentioned the possibility of hallucination because she wanted to remind Bai Ning not to be too limited to past experiences.
"It's not a hallucination. It's just that the cell activity in Sima Tian's body is stronger than that of normal people. It seems that he developed wrinkles in a short period of time, but it may just be an active accumulation of cells on his body surface.
Stretching and contracting the skin by inflating or tightening muscles is very common in nature, and humans can also cause goosebumps on the skin through the arrector pili muscles.
In other words, his skin is completely different from normal human skin and can switch freely between smooth and wrinkled.
This kind of performance of rapid aging, even until death of old age, is just to get through. "
Bai Ning told his guess in front of Sima Tian without any hesitation, which made Sima Tian's eyes towards Bai Ning change.
The vicissitudes of life reveal a bit of surprise in his eyes, and you can even see a bit of resentment after failure, which seems to prove the correctness of Bai Ning's guess.
"I have never used this trick before, and the first time I used it, you actually saw through it.
It doesn't seem unfair to be caught by you. "
Sima Tian's voice returned to what a young man should look like. Even though his wrinkles were still numerous, his clear eyes represented his physical health.
Faced with Sima Tian's change, Jiang Yingxue was also a little surprised. She didn't expect that a biochemical weapon like a clone would have such powerful genetic modifications to its skin.
Based on such characteristics, you can even understand replicant technology as a very powerful ancient war technology.
In general science fiction, there is also talk of human cloning. It is impossible not to be surprised when faced with this kind of future technology.
"I still have the same question, what exactly did your tour group experience in that stone forest?"
Bai Ning asked this question for the third time, but this time Sima Tian remained indifferent throughout the whole process, as if he had no intention of speaking at all.
"If you don't say it, it means you don't know, and you don't even have the authority to make up lies about it.
As a clone puppet, your very existence is a tragedy. "
Bai Ning's very rare sigh was like a lament, but also like a disguised attack on the heart.
Sima Tian, who had chicken skin and bright head, was very disdainful of this. He stared at Bai Ning coldly and still didn't respond.
At this time, he was like a well-known tough guy, waiting for Bai Ning to torture him next, or to simply kill him.
