gravel
Since the rainstorm can move to the world with abundant lakes and lush banyan trees through the brief flash and overlap of the two worlds, then the memories of Zhang Tianyi and I who have already "died in the be ending" in that world can certainly arrive here in the same way.
No wonder, no wonder he reminded me so ambiguously but didn't say more.
If the flash he experienced only lasted for a brief moment, he would probably have no idea about the subsequent pursuit.
So being able to come to these conclusions quickly and then immediately come back to me to make precise metaphors is already the ultimate.
As for why it was my and Zhang Tianyi's consciousness that flashed through, I don't have much evidence at this time. My guess is:
Zhang Tianyi once hid as a "man in the wall" to remind and observe us. I don't know what kind of weird story this is, but he does seem to have a way to coexist with the environment, but he seems unable to interfere with the outside world, otherwise he will be forced to leave like the convoy did that time.
As for me, it was because of the trick I used to escape from the predicament.
In the human body, there is the closest parasitic relationship between the mother and the fetus.
I relied on the power of the sentry box to rescue my friends from the pit, which in itself was to help the sentry box complete a separate childbirth. In this process, as a carrier, I could probably serve as a carrier or mother for others to escape.
And in this currently unknown strange story, it seems that a parasitic relationship exists.
As a closer host, I may have temporarily won the priority at the moment I entered the bluestone and triggered the parasitism of the goddess.
However, I am just an ordinary person after all, and the priority brought by the aftereffects of the ghost story did not last long.
The moment Gao Liu suddenly realized who he was, the radiation from the Pit Tales completely faded away, and our overlap separated.
I'm not surprised that my trick to escape trouble still has to pay a price.
However, in this way, Gao Liu from that world actually became the real price for me. Although the others were temporarily freed and landed on the shore, they had also been parasitized by those aerial roots, and the consequences were extremely bad.
And my consciousness somehow managed to escape here.
Just like the game save metaphor, I saved the game at the bad ending and came to a new save route.
But this kind of escape obviously cannot happen again and again, and it seems that the timelines of our two worlds are flowing in parallel.
My heart tightened. That is to say, we in that world were still soaking in the lake at that moment, so no one stopped the tour group from entering the mountain. This was the biggest difference between the two worlds.
I don’t know the final ending of that world. Will it eventually affect this side because of the overlapping and flickering of the world? At this moment, an invisible countdown is vaguely hanging above my head.
If we want to save ourselves, it would be best to end it all in advance before we in that world encounter the third storm, that is, before a whirlpool siphon appears on the lake.
Calm down, calm down, the tour guide told me that after the cave collapsed, they were trapped in the "belly of the mountain" for several days. During these days, she and the couple felt that time was particularly long because of parasitism, and then they heard the voices of the three people in nightgowns.
Now, following this conjecture, the Pajama Trio might also be some kind of world line that I have not yet reached.
Maybe they accidentally encountered overlapping flashes while resting in the B&B. Finally, on the day of the third rainstorm, we, the tour group, and the three people in pajamas came together and encountered each other.
From this point of view, the two "monkey brothers"' confused and confused look is understandable. They should not have had any accidents before, and they have gone further than the rest of us at the end of luck and ignorance.
However, since there are so many different worlds, this means that a "good ending" most likely exists.
And since Zhang Tianyi in this world was able to come and join me earlier, it would not be nonsense for me to make further changes.
Just don't expect another rainstorm ahead of time.
The heavy rain here seems to be the node and omen of every flash.
More information cannot be deduced. I still have no idea where the rules for the overlapping and flickering worlds come from, and why the timeline can be kept flowing in a unified manner.
But reaching these conclusions at least means we are not completely confused.
I was a little excited and tentatively shared my guess with the team leader and Zhang Tianyi.
The team leader immediately became alert and waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't tell me the details. What if something goes wrong? I know we have to get things done in the next two days, and we have to be prepared for rain."
After saying this, he really blocked his ears and went straight to the three waiters.
I had no choice but to go see my brother again, and when I looked at Zhang Tianyi, I finally reacted. This bastard actually hid the truth from me this time and refused to acknowledge me, even though I had worked so hard to make friends with him.
Before I could ask him, he reached out and pulled me into the mountain path.
I was stunned, and when I looked down I realized that I had unknowingly stepped on the edge of the mountain trail while thinking, and I suddenly felt a chill on the soles of my feet.
Wait, just now when I was delirious and unconscious, he stopped me and told me not to move.
There were too many things I had to think about at the time, and I only realize now that if I had really been frightened by the Fairy Concubine and turned around and ran, there was a high probability that I would have missed a step and rushed out of the mountain path, and it was possible that I would have been smashed to pieces.
“…”Forget it. I felt a little guilty and thought that I should repay my kindness and settle the account. I’d better scold this guy for being unorganized and undisciplined next time.
Just because of this interruption, he walked over to the three guys, and everyone looked at me, asking me with their eyes whether I was still leaving or not.
Especially those three guys, who were obviously excluded and did not participate in the discussion, but they all looked very sensible and did not care at all, without even a question mark.
I didn't have the chance to come up with a good inference, which made me want to vomit blood. But time was really tight, so I hurried forward and was surrounded by several Zhang family members who felt safe again.
We continued walking, and team leader Zhang Jia picked up the topic again.
"Master, look, there is this small platform not far ahead. I am digging the soil here."
I thought of the tour guide's appearance, and felt a little depressed: "Has the number of people changed again?"
"No." He shook his head and pointed at me.
We had already arrived as we were talking, and when I looked over there, I was stunned by surprise.
On the small platform, there was an obvious trace of a circle of fresh soil being turned over, and some green grass on the side was also uprooted.
However, the turned-up part was extremely dry, with distinct grains.
It's more like gravel than soil, and there is basically no moisture in it.
Team leader Zhang Jia asked me to step back a little, picked up the engineering shovel again, dug a regular hole not far away, and dug the soil down.
His movements were quick and skillful, and he dug a straight hole in the ground about as deep as his calf in one go.
But when I saw it, I gasped. On that straight cross-section, there was no moist soil at all, about two centimeters thick, nor were there any insects or plant roots.
“These, these are…”
I couldn't find the right words at once. The team leader snorted and laughed, stepped on the engineer shovel and said, "Yes, Master, isn't it strange? It's like a layer of fake turf was forcibly laid on the dry wasteland.
He kept calling them "Young Master", but the three genuine Zhang servants remained indifferent and had no intention of attacking the fake Li Kui at all.
One of the guys even shouted along, saying seriously:
"So it's not that someone is mowing the grass and stacking it right under our noses. It's that there's something wrong with the grass itself. It's always been so fresh and lush, and it's not actually growing on the ground. Master, I said it was impossible for us not to notice someone."
As he spoke, he stood up straighter, as if he was feeling proud of having been cleared of the wrongs.
Why do the Zhang family seem to be a little bit stupid? I wondered in my heart, but I kept saying, "Yes, yes, yes, then you are really great." After perfunctorily speaking, I squatted down and continued to meet with the team leader to study and discuss.
The team leader moved to the side to let me squat more comfortably, then squinted his eyes and pointed at the lush greenery in the distance.
"Master, with my bad mouth, I can guarantee that the trees in this damn place are also like this, they are all fake. Maybe they poured several buckets of 502 glue to fix the big trees."
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I thought that the captain had become more and more careless and unruly since he confessed to me. He said whatever he wanted. He called me "young master" but acted as if I was his distant nephew who was entrusted to him. I told him to be more serious and stop talking nonsense to me.
It's such a big valley, and they said it would take a week to search the mountain. Not to mention how to fix and arrange the fake scenery, how much manpower, financial resources and material resources would be needed for this project? How stupid would it be?
But I didn't expect that the other people suddenly looked at me, and they didn't look like I was joking, as if they all thought such an outrageous statement was very possible.
Is this true? Why? I was a little confused, and I couldn't convince myself logically.
"If the immortal touches my head, I will be blessed with immortality." Zhang Tian looked at me and repeated it calmly, as if smiling, "What if we pray to the immortals and Buddhas for something that humans cannot do?"
I got goosebumps all over my body and realized that this actually made sense.
The image of Zhou Tingmao, who was trapped in the anomaly, flashed by, and he was wailing and screaming "make a wish". If the lip reading was not too wrong, then the tour guide also said something about making a wish and protection intermittently.
Considering the so-called “wishes come true” in another world, this seems to be really possible.
But if it really works, how much would it cost?
Looking at the green valley in front of me at this moment, I was horrified.
The guy Zhang who had spoken to them said, "There are so many people in those haystacks. I suspect that this travel agency has believed in some unreliable and weird tricks and is being self-indulgent here. I'm afraid that almost all the people in the tour bus are here."
The team leader thought about it and got a little nervous: "When I stopped the bus, I didn't have an exact number, but according to the "severance pay" I gave out, there were about 30 to 40 people in the group. The number is correct."
The guy stared at her and asked uncertainly, "Then recognize them all?" He thought for a moment and added, "There are no children. The tour guide's child is fine."
Zhang Tianyi shook his head: "Zhang Jia, do you remember what the driver looks like?"
The captain's eyelids jumped when he asked this question. He recalled that he was a bald and fat man. He probably didn't get out of the car often to get sunbathed, so he was very white. The most obvious thing was a burn on his chin, which was bright red and as eye-catching as a birthmark.
The guy reacted immediately: "Yes, the driver is dead too!"
Since the driver is a rotten thing, no, let's just assume that he may have just left the bus in the first place, whether alone or with others, and whether voluntarily or not.
In this case, other tourists have nowhere to go. They can either walk out to find a road, or come back to find us and the tour guide, hoping to stay in a B&B in the mountains for a night and wait for someone to pick them up.
If this is the case, and a group of tourists were able to move freely, bypass our roadblocks and patrols, enter the mountains and encounter danger, then things are getting worse and worse.
Zhang Jia slapped his face. Even an old hand like him was a little scared. He didn't believe it and went to rummage through the haystacks one by one. He said that there were so many tour groups going into the mountain, and they were not necessarily all the tourists this time. Who knows, the remaining ones might be the accumulation of tourists from different groups.
As he spoke his scalp began to tingle. He cursed to give himself courage, then came back after a while and moved his mouth with difficulty.
"They are all from this time. I still recognize these faces."
My heart skipped a beat and I thought something was wrong.
If that was true, where had the little girl gone? The only two guardians were not around, and most of the tourists had been in trouble, so where would she be, a five or six-year-old?
Just as he was feeling frightened, news came from the other end of the team. It was Gao Liu and Wild Cat who were supposed to report on the mountain patrol.
"Advisor, Captain Yan found that the tour bus had somehow become stranded in the dry lake bed. There was no one inside."
"There is a dilapidated pavilion not far from the lake bed. Captain Yan said he found a little girl from the tour group. It seemed that she had lost contact with the others. But the little girl kept crying and wouldn't say anything when asked."
Then, it seemed as if the communication channel was changed, and Yan Mo's low voice was heard in it, coaxing the child in an unskilled manner.
There was also a very young and confused voice, and she was sobbing non-stop.
"——Rui Rui?" I subconsciously held my breath and asked softly.
