Xiao Bai looked towards the small road that almost stretched to the end. It was really a simple cement road with no obstructions. She remembered that she had taken that road when she came here. Could there be something strange here?
Xiao Bai lowered his head and put his uncle's smelly socks close to Lai Fu's nose again. Lai Fu, suddenly attacked by the stench, sneezed and looked at Xiao Bai with his resentful dog eyes, as if to say, this master is really not a human being!
After receiving a kick from Xiao Bai, Lai Fu could only run towards the problematic road without complaint. Sniffing here and there, he made a discovery.
"Woof woof!"
Xiao Bai looked at Lai Fu sniffing back and forth on the road, and finally discovered something unusual.
No matter how Lai Fu sniffed, it seemed that it deliberately avoided a certain place. If she hadn't stood at a distance and observed carefully, he wouldn't have noticed this loophole. After all, that place was really not that big!
Xiao Bai carefully memorized the spot, placed a stone where she had been standing, turned on the video mode on her phone, and then deliberately walked towards it. After walking back and forth several times, she returned to check the video results.
Sure enough, when she walked in that direction in the video, although she felt that everything was normal when she walked, and she was walking towards the neglected place, and passed by that place without finding anything abnormal, the video showed that she subconsciously bypassed that area when she walked there.
So, was it something that changed her perception, or was it an illusion?
It seems that my uncle and the others are most likely trapped there!
So, was someone setting up a formation here? Or was it an illusion? Or was it an invisibility talisman or something? Xiao Bai pondered.
At this moment, the few people that Xiao Bai was thinking about were sitting in a circle in the illusion, surrounded by torn instant noodle boxes and some mineral water.
"Yes, do you want it?"
"Excuse me, pass!"
"Bombs! Haha, I win! These are all mine!"
After the fat boy finished speaking, he pushed several bags of snacks in front of everyone in front of him, tore open a bag of spicy chicken feet and started eating.
Huangmao rolled his eyes at him and said, "Eat less! We don't have much snacks left. We'll all be eating instant noodles later!"
"No, I need to satisfy my craving. I'm almost vomiting from eating instant noodles every day. Look at how much weight I've lost!" The little fat boy finished a packet in a few bites, and then stretched his claws to the remaining packets. The uncle quickly stopped him:
"That's enough, little fatty! How are you thin? You've gained weight! Just eat one packet to satisfy your craving, and we'll win back the rest! How can we play if you eat them all?!"
"That's right!" The rest of the people echoed.
After realizing that they were trapped in an illusion and couldn't get out, they initially tried hard to find a way to get out. However, after going around in circles countless times and still failing to get out, the exhausted people started to sit down and discuss a solution.
"Does this illusion require intelligence to solve? Just like a puzzle game?" The little fat man scratched his head.
"Do you think this is an escape room? Look, there is no puzzle here for you to guess!" my uncle roared.
"Let's think about it, what are the situations that can trap people and prevent them from getting out? I think this is a bit like a formation?" Master Li expressed his thoughts.
"It could also be an illusion created by some kind of plant." Huangmao added that they had guessed this before.
"If it's a formation, can we just unlock the center of the formation or break it violently?" My uncle continued to speculate.
"If it's a plant, do we just need to find the mutated plant? But we've looked for it before and didn't find any strange mutated plants?" The little fat man scratched his head.
"Well, let's try them all first!" My uncle made the final decision.
So several people tried to find possible puzzles, mutant plants, formations, and even tried to break them with violence, but the illusion remained unchanged.
So they could only sit down and discuss new methods while eating instant noodles.
"Is this illusion meant to be broken from the outside? It can't be broken from the inside?"
"Impossible! There's no formation that can only be broken from the outside. As long as it's a formation, there are ways to break it from both inside and outside!"
"Well, isn't it that they didn't find the formation? Maybe they didn't find the mutant plants?"
Several people were discussing while eating instant noodles and drinking mineral water. At this time, Huangmao suddenly found a deck of playing cards in the box of instant noodles. Now, four people could just sit at one table.
So it became discussing while playing cards, then it evolved into just playing cards without discussing, and finally it became a snack with the little left over from the card points.
When snacks become scarce, they are the best bargaining chips.
It was under such circumstances that a family of three who were out looking for food passed by the four people.
Then they passed by the four people playing cards, and inexplicably returned to the place where they were. They walked forward and passed by the four people playing cards again. After passing by them three times, the three members of the family knelt down together and kowtowed, crying and shouting:
"Everyone, we are really just passing by! Please be kind and let us out!"
"We only do good things and never do bad things! Please let us go. We will definitely burn incense for you when we get out!"
"Woo wa wa, if you let us go, we will definitely offer you three sticks of incense in the morning and three sticks of incense in the evening!"
"Woo woo woo, I'll burn a few more decks of cards for you!"
The four people who were so engrossed in playing cards didn't notice the family of three passing by were suddenly shocked by the crying!
"You are crying!" Huangmao roared dissatisfiedly. It was their crying and shouting at once that scared him. His hands shook and he even played the cards wrong!
Master Li calmly threw out a pair of cards and said calmly:
"I'm sorry, you're so sad, you're going to go back and burn incense for us!"
The little fat boy scratched his head and asked in a daze, "No, why are they burning incense for us for no reason?"
"Let's ask them how they got into the illusion!" Grandpa excitedly threw out four cards:
"Bomb! These snacks are all mine!"
"Okay, everyone, get up and tell us how you got in!" Master Li stood up and pulled up the three people who were still kneeling on the ground.
The three people who were pulled up trembling were surprised: This hand is warm? There is a shadow! A living person!
After several people communicated with each other and exchanged information, my uncle and others realized that they thought they had been in the illusion for a long time, but only one day had passed outside!
"No wonder I feel so full! It turns out I ate several extra meals in one day!" the little fat man shouted!
