"What are you thinking about?" "Chongming" suddenly asked.
He didn't know when he had put his hand down, and looked at Xie Xuan with a dark look.
Was this hallucination too autonomous? Xie Xuan felt a physical discomfort.
During the two days outside the wall, she had discovered that the bacteria outside the wall were just as Song Zhixian had said. Although they had developed some rudimentary wisdom, they were far less terrifying than the bacteria that parasitized humans inside the wall.
And now she felt that this illusion was more like the place where the fungi were formed inside the wall than the place where the fungi were formed outside the wall.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Xie Xuan asked, "Just to tell me that I'm a monster?"
Xie Xuan originally thought that Chongming would continue to play dumb, but unexpectedly he laughed and said with a grin, "Yes."
Xie Xuan felt a chill run down her spine. "You're the parasite. Why are you outside the wall?"
Xie Xuan used a declarative sentence, but Chongming pretended to be cute and tilted his head to think for a moment, "Why?"
Everything around them became eerily quiet. Only something in front of them, wearing the skin of a Chongming figure, smiled and said to Xie Xuan, "Because I came to find you, Xie Xuan."
Chongming's face suddenly became blurry, and Xie Xuan immediately asked, "Who are you? Who asked you to come?"
"When we meet next time..." Chongming's face, which had become featureless, stretched into a black slit, revealing a smile as standard as a picture. "I'll tell you my name."
After saying this, the smile suddenly dropped and turned into a standard unhappy expression, and the black spot disappeared quickly like ink melting in water.
Immediately afterwards, "Chongming" disappeared, everything around it disappeared, even Xie Xuan herself began to disappear.
Disappearing and melting is an experience that is difficult to describe. Xie Xuan felt that she had become extremely light and at the same time extremely heavy, as if two forces were pulling her in opposite directions.
Finally she fell down and landed steadily on a flat surface.
Xie Xuan opened her eyes and saw the upper bunk bed in front of her.
The dim sleep light was on in the car. Xie Xuan raised her hand and touched her forehead. It was clean and without a trace of sweat.
She sat up and checked the time. It was 12:15 AM, only one minute had passed since the last hallucination.
Xie Xuan continued to open the system panel. Her spirit value had dropped to 75, but her health value was still full.
Is she still hallucinating or has she woken up?
According to normal thinking, the hallucination should have ended after the confrontation just now, but the person who pulled her into the hallucination was obviously not a normal person.
Xie Xuan turned around and found that the bed next to her was empty and Xiao Yao was still not there.
She got out of bed. Chongming was standing guard in front of the vehicle. When he heard her get up, he turned his head and looked over.
This reaction was much more normal than the previous one. She took two steps forward and turned to look at the bunk above. Ding Qiaoyun, Yang Jiayue and Song Zhixian were still there.
When seeing Yang Jiayue, an idea flashed through Xie Xuan's mind.
When Chongming said that he was a bionic man, everyone in their car was except Song Zhixian. If this psychic or something else was an illusion created through the memories of the people in the car, he should not have made the mistake just now.
But if not, how did he create the illusion?
Xie Xuan was still a little unsure whether this was an illusion or reality, so she continued walking towards the front of the carriage.
The lights in the RV were dim and the windows were still reflecting light, so she still couldn't see what was happening outside the car.
Soon she walked in front of Chongming.
"Are you awake?" Chongming asked.
"Yeah, I had a nightmare." Xie Xuan looked at Chongming's identical answer, "Where's Xiao Yao?"
"He said he felt danger was approaching here, so he went to deal with it alone." Chongming's tone of voice was no different from when he usually mentioned Xiao Yao.
"Which direction did he go? How long has he been gone?" Xie Xuan asked.
Chongming pointed in a direction and said, "He went there twenty-seven minutes ago."
Twenty-seven minutes, exactly one minute longer than the time it took "Chongming" in the previous field to answer, and the same time she just watched.
Xie Xuan put the dagger to Chongming's neck without hesitation, "What do you want to do?"
Chongming was puzzled, "Have you finally lost your mind?"
After he finished cursing, he seemed to have thought of something and said, "When you say nightmare, do you mean hallucination? I suggest you get a sedative first to calm down."
Xie Xuan was a little uncertain again.
Just as the two people were in a stalemate, the car door suddenly opened.
Xie Xuan turned her head slightly, and when she saw Xiao Yao getting into the car, she pointed the dagger at him again, "What were you doing?"
Xiao Yao was startled and subconsciously raised his hands in surrender. "I kept hearing noises in my ears while I was sleeping. I thought there were infected creatures approaching in groups, so I went down to patrol, but I found nothing."
He looked at Chongming and asked quietly, "What's going on?"
"She must be hallucinating due to a mental infection." Chongming paused after speaking. "I wonder if Ding Qiaoyun and the others are in the same situation. Should we wake them up as well?"
Xiao Yao turned to look at Xie Xuan. He was still standing at the door of the car and had not yet fully gotten in. Half of his face was hidden in the darkness outside the car, looking dim and unclear.
He looked at Xie Xuan and coughed lightly. "Didn't you tell me last time that I could stab you when I encountered an illusion and didn't know whether it was real or not? Anyway, you can regenerate, so why don't you stab yourself now and try it?"
Xie Xuan put down the dagger. To be able to say such hurtful words, it must be the real Xiao Yao.
The crisis was temporarily resolved, but Xie Xuan still felt a little unreal.
She took the sedative and her mental level returned to 95, but her health remained at 100 without a change.
Xie Xuan still didn't understand why her health points increased. Could it really be because of the moon fragments she swallowed in the hallucination?
Chongming saw Xie Xuan put away the dagger and said to her, "I'm going to check on Ding Qiaoyun and the others. Do you want to come with me?"
Xie Xuan nodded, "Let's go together."
Chongming and Xie Xuan walked to the back of the carriage, but Xiao Yao turned around and looked outside.
Outside the car was a silent and boundless mushroom forest, but above one of the mushrooms, a bright white light seemed to flash by.
Xiao Yao sighed silently, and watched the light disappear from his sight with a cold expression. Then he regained his composure, slowly walked into the car, and closed the door.
