[Chapter 170] After Samsara Quan held the door, Du Jin had some spare energy, or energy, to observe the room that existed as a disinfection buffer room. As far as light was concerned, the light and brightness in the room had nothing to do with it. It is completely a hazy state that seems bright but not bright, seems dark but not dark. To be honest, this kind of atmosphere generally has only two results. The first result is that some people like to arrange this atmosphere to prepare for dates and subsequent events. Hey Xiu was the foreshadowing. To be honest, if it was that kind of scope, Du Jin would definitely be more accepting.
But now, what Du Jin brings to Du Jin is another feeling, that is, the depressive feeling of dying and sleeping, and the depressing feeling of things hidden in the dark. Light affects the human body through the nervous system, and nerve fibers transmit light signals. It is transmitted to the visual cortex and other parts of the brain, controls the body's biological clock and hormones, and affects the pituitary gland, pineal gland, adrenal gland, and thyroid gland.
Through the interaction between them, the physiological and behavioral rhythms of the human body are generated, reset and regulated.
From the perspective of psychological medicine, the effect of light on the cerebral cortex has a direct impact on people's psychological activities, emotions, etc.
For example, ultraviolet rays, light color, color temperature, and light flashing all have an impact on people's psychology, thus affecting people's physical and mental health.
Insufficient lighting for a long time will cause visual stress, making the body prone to fatigue, distracted attention, poor memory, and reduced abstract and logical thinking abilities.
Excessive eye exposure not only makes people feel psychologically uncomfortable, but can also make people sick. For example, after long-term exposure to strong sunlight, the cornea of the eye will be damaged and may cause cataracts. Symptoms such as upset and depression may also occur. At the same time, the person's skin may darken or turn red, making the person feel uncomfortable. Produces a tingling sensation.
The strong colored light in artificial lighting will interfere with the normal activities of the brain center, disrupt the balance of the human body, and cause people to be irritable, tired, dizzy, etc.
But what really attracted all of Du Jin's attention was a statue placed in the center of the room. This was a statue that made Du Jin extremely familiar and fearful. It was also the source of all Du Jin's efforts: the blood seal, with its red body facing towards Strange red light radiated from all around, and strings of symbols that Du Jin couldn't understand appeared on the blood-stamped statue from time to time. But even if Du Jin didn't understand the meaning, there was still a force forcing him not to look away from these flashing symbols. The runes were removed, but unfortunately, Du Jin felt that these runes were somewhat familiar, but the rest were boring and boring.
I don't know if the blood seal noticed something was wrong with Du Jin. Gradually the runes flickered slower and slower, until they were completely covered by the red surface color of the blood seal. At this time, Du Jin felt that his whole mind suddenly lightened up, as if he was getting rid of it. Like some kind of restraint.
"Did this blood seal just want to control me?" Du Jin wondered for a moment, but this thought was immediately dismissed by a rubbing sound in his ears. He quickly looked towards the source of the sound, only to find that in the shadow of the corner , a woman's figure loomed, as erratic as a candlelight that was about to go out, but Du Jin basically guessed from the size of the figure that this was Xingying, as for the black ball in her arms, whose appearance was unclear.
"Object", Du Jinze guessed was her daughter Xiaoyou. After all, while he touched Xingying, he also held the girl's hand in order to save time and efficiency.
Logically speaking, Du Jin should have appeared in the consciousness space of the two people together. Du Jin was not surprised by this, but because he was still holding the wooden door hard, he could not go over to confirm. Du Jin could still clearly hear the crawling sound. The sound of movement appeared back and forth not far from him. He knew without thinking that the corpse mutant outside was squatting. If Du Jin relaxed his strength now, it would give the monster a chance to break into the room and kill. At that time, not only Du Jin, but also Xingying and her daughter Xiaoyou would be treated as prey and killed.
Du Jin couldn't accept such an ending, so he could only lower his voice and call softly towards the corner with the figure: "Ms. Xingying, is that you?" The figure paused when he heard Du Jin's figure. After a while, a very low, but not unpleasant but rather pleasant voice came over: "You shouldn't come here. Everyone will be reincarnated. Me too, and so will my children and husband. It's just me who has to bear it." Yes, why come again?"
"Reincarnation?" Du Jin asked in confusion. Xingying was silent for a moment, as if Du Jin's question touched on some obscure and unspeakable secret. There was no way, Du Jin was not going to go around in circles. From You Chengwang's description and Judging from the information I just heard from the other party's words, Xingying is very competent both as a mother and a wife. She seems to have been enduring the sufferings that should have happened to her husband and children by herself. Now Du Jin can only use this responsibility and emotion to extract the information and intelligence he wants: "Ms. Xingying, your child has experienced the mental erosion of the blood mark in reality just like you, and is about to die due to weakness. After your death, your husband You Chengwang has been haggard and depressed every day, and even wants to leave this world with you. If this is the reincarnation you help them endure, I don't know what the meaning of your actions is?" Du Jin's words made Xingying's figure trembled obviously. She moved her body from the shadow in the corner with excitement, wanting to get closer to Du Jin to ask for details. However, when she just left the shadow and was illuminated by the red light from the blood seal, Xingying's body seemed to He shrank back as if he was electrocuted, and said to himself in fear: "No! No! I don't want to be reunited, I don't want it, I don't want to bring my family in!" Seeing this scene, Du Jin immediately understood why Xingying wanted to hide. In the shadows, the red light radiated by the red blood seal seemed to have a strong stimulating effect on her, and judging from Xingying's contradictory words, the blood seal was to force her to do something, and it was to take her family with her.
"Reincarnation? Reunification... Does the blood seal want to completely engulf Xingying's independent personality? Then it can completely erode her to achieve some goals, but look Ms. Lai Xingying still hasn't given in. Could the reincarnation she talked about be a punishment from the blood mark, a means to force her to abandon her humanity and personality and become a puppet?" Du Jin's ability to associate quickly made him understand He had a rough understanding of Xingying's experience. Although these opinions were based on speculation, his intuition told him that it was ninety-nine times true. From this, Du Jin was even more amazed at Xingying's perseverance and strong will. , this will to sacrifice oneself to protect the family is much stronger than most people, even if the object of protection is the family. Considering this, Du Jin resisted the pain that spread from his shoulder to the entire left chest, A slightly trembling voice persuaded: "Ms. Xingying, don't be afraid. I am here to solve the control and influence of this statue on you. Please tell me, what have you experienced? What does reincarnation mean?" Only in this way can I help you, otherwise I won't be able to hold on for too long, and the monster outside the door will rush in and swallow you and me." Mentioning this, Xingying said with a little hesitation in the shadow: " You... you're not from the Unity sect?"
"Of course not! To be precise, I am a person with a firm stand and a hostile and annihilative attitude towards the Unity Sect." Du Jin responded immediately, while Xingying looked at the whole body in the shadows.
Although the "bloodstained" Du Jin still has a trace of uncertainty and doubt in his heart, compared to the monster outside the door and the statue in the center of the room that constantly forces him to abandon his thoughts and family, although his image is a bit weird, But she is undoubtedly the most trustworthy person now. Xingying held the child in her arms tightly with her hands and felt her daughter's cold forehead. She finally said to Du Jin: "I don't know about that person from the Unity Sect. What did I do to my child? That day I just held my child to sleep as usual, but as soon as I woke up I was in this room at home specially designed for isolation and observation. I was a little scared, but my My husband appeared by my side, and I was originally very happy because he was the person I trusted the most, but that day his eyes looked so weird."
"I don't know what happened to him. When I held his hand tightly, I realized that his hand was so cold. He said to me, 'Embrace and unite! Give everything you have, body and mind, and we will unite. !', this is definitely not my husband, there is no way he could say such a thing, I refused without hesitation at the time, but then, Zhengwang's head exploded in front of me, with sticky blood accompanying it. I didn’t want to imagine that the tissue from which it came was dropped on me. I was so frightened that I covered my mouth but found that I couldn’t make any sound at all.”
"That was a nightmare I couldn't forget. I bit the tip of my tongue hard, trying to wake up from the nightmare, but except for the smell of blood that instantly filled my mouth, nothing happened. I picked up Xiao You, who was still sleeping soundly next to me. I want to take her away with me, this place is definitely not real, I firmly believe that none of this is real... But Chengwang's body was just after I got out of bed. When he stood up, something like six arms emerged from behind in front of me. It was not Cheng Wang, but a monster that had invaded his body."
"Then... I didn't think much about it. I could only hold my baby and keep running, but the distance from the bed to the door was too long. It was far, really too far. I felt like my legs had been broken. I could only tell myself with a little bit of reason that I had to run. My child shouldn’t die here. Maybe there really was someone. Protect me. When I fell at the door, the monster stopped, as if it wanted to see me struggling on the ground and crawling towards the door. Finally, I pushed open a small gap in the door, and first I opened it. My little swim pushed in."
"Then I saw the statue that made me feel scared and bloody at first sight. There was nothing next to it, but I felt like it was piled among corpses. But when I wanted to look away , but found that I couldn't control my body at all, even if I could turn my field of vision a little, I was recalling all kinds of harsh but inaudible murmurs in my mind. They bombarded my consciousness bit by bit. I was really I’m so scared, I feel like I’m going to die soon.”
"I fainted, and then woke up again, but what was waiting for me was still the increasingly weird statue and the harsh noise. I don't know how many times it was repeated. Finally, once, after I woke up, a clear idea appeared in my mind. The voice said: 'Unify, let us merge, unite'. I realized at that time that this was exactly what the monster wearing the appearance of my husband said. It was the monster that dragged me into this hell, and I was covered in it. Every cell in my body seems to be urging me to agree, but my children and husband, all the good things and expectations I have experienced, I don’t want this so-called reunification, I just want... . . . want my home.”
"Then... Then I lost consciousness, and when I woke up again, I appeared in that bed again, but with the person next to me The child is gone, and the monster disguised as my husband is still waiting for me. Maybe I have been killed by him countless times. How many times specifically? I don’t know, but I feel that the blood on the ground seems to be my remnants. Every time I arrive in front of this wooden door, I will think of these things. I want to escape and find my daughter and husband, but this door has never been pushed open by me. It seems to be the only one closed. To survive, I can only be dragged away and killed by that monster over and over again..."
"Over and over again, but I always remember that my children and husband are still waiting for me. I want to see them one last time. I don't know how much time has passed. It is too much for me who has been dismembered by that monster countless times. It was too extravagant, but in the end, when I climbed in front of this wooden door again, I remembered everything. I seemed to be able to predict my next death and come back. Maybe I would die like this all my life. But the door opened a crack, and I saw a little hand. I remember her, and I can never remember her wrongly. It was my daughter's hand. I don't know where I got the strength to stand up and rush to the door."
"I resisted the door. The force coming from behind was so strong that I really couldn't hold on. The red light from the statue made my whole body feel like it was on fire. I could even smell that my body was getting cooked bit by bit. Until I heard a faint voice coming from the corner, "Mom, Mom." I couldn't have heard Xiaoyou's voice wrong. I rushed over to find her. Xiaoyou shivered and huddled together. I held her in my arms. In my arms, her skin is so cold, but to me, Xiaoyou is so hot."
"'It's all your fault' kept appearing in my mind, similar reprimands and curses, but I hugged my daughter and didn't care about it. How much I wanted her to call me mom again, but there were all these things in my ears.
I couldn't hear anything about the murmur of "Gui Yi". I could only feel the faint rise and fall of Xiaoyou's chest with my still-sent hand.
. . . . . . . . . . . . "...
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Du Jin was silent for a long time. He didn't know what to say at this time, or he didn't know what to say. This kind of reincarnation of countless deaths, just listening to Xingying's brief description, made his hair stand on end, as if something was in his heart.
Like "dancing", the other party's love for her children and husband caused countless waves in Du Jin's heart. If it were him, Du Jin would never have thought that he would maintain his original intention in this kind of collapsed reincarnation.
Xingying's voice became weaker and weaker. Her voice made Du Jin feel as if she was about to disappear completely. This made him immediately come out of the shock: "No! We can't let such a person take away everything with the blood mark." , what to do now? Blood mark, corpse transformation, do I need to know these before I can take them away?" Du Jin has discovered that Xingying is still somewhat rational, but he has not heard a single movement from the little girl, which makes He had to consider whether the little girl's consciousness and life had been taken away by the blood mark. After all, children under the age of ten basically had no willpower, but it was precisely because she opened a trace of the door behind her. Only through the gap can his mother be saved from another reincarnation of death. Considering this, Du Jin's goal has changed from taking the two people out of the consciousness space eroded by the blood seal, to destroying the connection and infection of the two people by the blood seal. .
No matter in any aspect, the latter is much more difficult. Looking at the blood-stamped statue radiating red light in front of him, Du Jin had an idea in his mind: "This thing seems to attract other creatures to merge with it. carry out so-called
"Reunification", if I take the initiative to fuse it, can I directly let the black blood seal replace it? "The risk behind this idea is very high. It is completely gambling with Du Jin's life. If the black blood mark on Du Jin's body cannot protect him or reversely erode the red blood mark, then Du Jin will give it for nothing, and A rabbit holds a carrot and shares it with a gray wolf. It is meaningless to talk about the probability of survival. If it were Du Jin before, he would definitely hesitate and most likely give up this gambling method and look for other countries to be more secure. method, but after hearing everything that happened to Xingying, Du Jin now doesn't just think about himself.
Everyone in a desperate situation has an incomparable desire for hope. Du Jin could feel Xingying's desire to survive with her daughter, husband, and family, even after countless reincarnations of death. The zombies have brutally killed countless times, and this persistence of hope is still in her heart. The only thing Du Jin wants to do now is to prevent this ray of hope from happening.
The "fire" disappears, otherwise no matter how strong the flame is, without oxygen, it will eventually go out immediately. This is the last thing Du Jin wants to see now.
Du Jin smiled. He made up his mind to change his posture and press his right shoulder against the wooden door behind him. He endured the pain in his left chest and the blurred vision in front of his eyes, while speaking to Xingying in as gentle a voice as possible. He promised: "Ms. Xingying, don't worry! You and your daughter will go back, and your husband has been waiting for you, not the monster outside the door!" After saying that, without waiting for Xingying to respond, Du Jin kicked He ran towards the red blood mark with all his strength. Due to the pain in his left chest and the numbness from blood loss, Du Jin almost lost his balance and fell to the ground. Fortunately, Du Jin regained his balance with his strong body coordination. , it stands to reason that it is most appropriate to stand on the spot and reach some resonance with the red blood seal through your own thinking, but the existence of the black blood seal is likely to make the red blood seal notice something abnormal. Du Jin also entered the room and stared at the red blood seal, but there was no reaction. At one point, Du Jin determined that the black blood mark in his body was at least on the same level as the statue in front of him, otherwise it would be impossible to resist the opponent's mental control.
This is also the reason why Du Jin dared to use the black blood seal to backfire. If according to the blood seal
If the spiritual infection of "most interested" does not work, then Du Jin can only use physical
The "unity" method is related to the red blood seal. Now, thanks to the zombie, Du Jin's entire left shoulder has been pierced, and a large amount of blood flows out from it, which can be regarded as saving Du Jin his own stroke. Open the tedious preparation of the skin.
The next moment after Du Jin left the wooden door, the wooden door was pushed open by the almost solidified blood, and the corpse shape also appeared. Originally it didn't want to enter this room, but it seemed Du Jin was angered by Du Jin's move towards the red blood seal statue. Of course, it is also possible that the red blood seal itself noticed the problem and wanted its creation to eliminate this potential threat. After all, which prey have you ever seen doing the opposite? If it hits a predator, there are only two possibilities for this to happen: first, the prey is so frightened that it cannot distinguish the direction and danger; second, it has a trump card that is enough to counterattack, red The blood seal obviously chose the latter possibility. When the corpse rushed into the room from the door and wanted to eat Du Jin, the blood seal emitted an increasingly intense and dazzling red light. These red lights almost condensed into substance. The light seemed to form a wall, blocking Du Jin's approach. However, when Du Jin spilled the blood on his chest and dripped onto these red lights while running, the almost substantial red light seemed to be white. The paper was like a big hole burned by the fire, and many holes with black edges were eroded.
Then under Du Jin's momentum, the red light shattered in response to the impact, and became dimmed in the air. It did not have the dazzling light just now, as if nothing had happened, and Du Jin also became more and more... close.
