Chapter 190 The Forest
"You can understand that this is a projection of the real world based on certain conditions," Jiang Cheng pointed to the shadow beside the fat man on the beach, pondered for a moment, and said, "It's like you represent the real world, and this is your shadow. "
The fat man's lips twitched for a while before he stammered and said, "So... so although this is not our world, the two worlds are in a symbiotic relationship."
"A symbiotic relationship." Jiang Cheng thought for a while, then shook his head, denying, "A symbiotic relationship means that the two live together for mutual benefit. Neither can survive without the other, but..."
He looked up at the fat man and continued, "If I shoot your shadow, will you die?"
His examples are easy to understand.
What happens in this world does not affect the real world.
"Doctor," after a while, the fat man had already digested the information that the former instilled in him, looked at the doctor and frowned and asked, "But what's the difference between this and what you said before?"
"Even if you're right, this place is indeed a projection of the real world, so what?"
The fat man blinked, as if worried that the doctor would misinterpret his meaning, and added, "I mean, can we get any different information from it?"
"Since it is a projection, there is a high probability that it will follow the inherent laws of our world," Jiang Cheng looked at the vast sea, and replied after a while, "This is very important."
"Let's go," Jiang Cheng withdrew his gaze, walked in another direction, "Let's go over there and have a look."
According to the division before the operation, Fatty Jiangcheng was in charge of the coastal areas, and the forest was handed over to Su Xiao and Su An's siblings.
The purpose of their trip is mainly to find food, especially water.
They have not had a drop of water all day and night, and their throats are dry and sore at the moment. If it is not for the communication clues, almost no one wants to talk.
Except for the necessary camouflage, of course.
The two of Jiang Cheng first walked around the cliff, and the fat man gently knocked on the rock wall with the stones he picked up, and found that the seemingly solid rock wall had been eroded severely by the sea wind.
With a little force, flakes of rock will peel off.
It seems that what Liang Long said is right, it is almost impossible to climb up the cliff from here, especially without the help of professional tools.
"Doctor," the fat man who was afraid of being exposed to the sun and squatting in the shade raised his head and asked, "Could this be an isolated island?"
Except for the endless forest, there is nothing like walking around here.
Miss Su Xiao and her brother were not seen near the forest, and it is not clear whether they ran to hide, or they really stepped into this unusually quiet forest.
He didn't hear Jiang Cheng's answer, so the fat man followed his gaze, licked his lips, and whispered unwillingly, "Doctor, do you think there is something wrong with this forest?"
"Ah."
"Then Su Xiaoxiao and them."
"Fatty," Jiang Cheng squinted at the direction of the forest, and suddenly said, "Do you still remember the path that old woman took you?"
The fat man was stunned, blinked and said, "You said it was before you and Chen Ran were found?"
"Ah."
"We met on the coast, and the old woman was in the water," the fat man recalled. "We walked around the coast, and then she took us to the cliff and said try."
"In other words, she would rather take the risk of climbing the cliff than approaching that forest," Jiang Cheng sighed. Compared with the questioning tone, it seemed more like a certain guess had been confirmed.
The way he looked at the forest became more and more intriguing.
The fat man lowered his voice, and asked as if confirming: "Does that mean there are weird things in the forest?"
"There are weirdness everywhere here, lighthouses, oceans, buildings, but the weirdness in the forest is bigger and more dangerous," Jiang Cheng replied, "That's why the old woman who came here for the second time chooses to avoid it directly. I think what happened to the group of people who fell here back then in the forest."
Hearing that Fatty's complexion gradually changed, the doctor's guess is reasonable.
But he didn't make it clear that those people must have encountered incomprehensible things in the forest back then, resulting in heavy losses, and maybe only the old woman survived.
This encounter made the old woman unforgettable, so she gave up exploring directly.
"Doctor," seemed to have thought of something, the fat man's face was very ugly, he shook his lips, and finally managed to speak out after a long time: "Then Su Xiaoxiao and the others...won't they all die in it?"
"I don't know." Jiang Cheng's profile showed no emotion, "But I think even if they can come out, they will probably be similar to us."
"Almost." The fat man repeated the doctor's words in a low voice, and then he seemed to recover, and raised his head and said, "Doctor, you mean that even if they can come back, they won't be able to find food and water?"
"Ah."
"But why?" Fatty couldn't help asking: "Could it be that the purpose of this book is to trap us to death?"
Since coming into contact with the weird nightmare mission, the fat man has imagined how he would die countless times, such as being pulled off his head by a ghost, or breaking his neck, or being hung up to let blood
But he never imagined that in the nightmare, there is such a way to die of starvation and thirst.
Hmm. He thought there was a high probability that he died of thirst.
Because people can survive without food for a while, but without water, a few days is the limit.
He was already seriously thinking about the feasibility of the fact that it was impossible and that the bark could be gnawed.
After a long silence, Jiang Cheng's body was hidden in the shadows.
I don't know why, no matter what kind of desperate situation he encounters, it seems that as long as the doctor is by his side, he feels that he can survive it.
Just when the fat man felt that the doctor was silent because of frustration, he suddenly heard a slightly hoarse voice.
"Fatty," the doctor said again, but this time the latter's voice made him feel strange, and even shuddered. He once thought it was an auditory hallucination caused by nervousness.
"Doctor, I'm here."
"Do you still remember what that old woman said?" Jiang Cheng paused and reminded, "Last night?"
After thinking about it, Fatty hesitated to speak while recalling the scene. The scene at that time was very strange, so Fatty remembered it clearly: "She said it was coming, she heard the sound, and then said that everyone is going to die!"
The fat man swallowed his precious saliva carefully, his throat was dry and uncomfortable, "She also said that something was calling her, she should have died here back then, and died here with them!"
Scenes of last night emerged in Fatty's mind, the woman's ferocious face, sharp and strange voice, like a jagged short knife, repeatedly cutting his nerves.
The severe pain stimulated his head, recalling the state of the woman at that time, the fat man seemed to be disturbed by some inexplicable things, and completely entered the role of a woman.
Well a little late.
