Beep, beep, beep...
The motorcycle was moving slowly along the path in the wilderness under the red moon.
The cool night breeze blew on his face, making Lu Xin's emotions very confused and his mood a little complicated.
I don't know if it was the remaining ability of the dancer or some other reason.
Until this time, Lu Xin's eyes would always see the weird dance of the dancer.
In his heart, the story between her and this village, which was like a tangled mess, would always appear.
Now he didn't think about what principle the weirdness he saw belonged to, just like what ability the dancer had. Qinggang had also recorded a "dancer" system of ability before, and he didn't know if they belonged to the same kind.
That old lady was obviously a monster, but he was not the only one who could see it. What type was she?
Lu Xin's thoughts were very confused now. He didn't try to analyze it, but just recorded it truthfully in the little notebook.
What occupied his mind more now was something that was so complicated that it seemed impossible to sort out.
The wilderness is indeed different from the high-walled city...
Who is the power user and who is the source of pollution?
In this village, I saw that the power user harmed people and the monster saved people.
But the one who harmed people may not be unsympathetic, and the one who saved people may not be without hate.
This complex feeling made Lu Xin feel unpredictable.
There was no clear dividing line in the middle, which made him very unhappy.
...
"What Chen Jing and the others did was right..."
"How can there be no order? It makes people confused..."
Fortunately, Lu Xin is a positive, healthy and optimistic person. He just drove the car silently, thinking about it for a while, and decided not to think about these things anymore. He still thought that it would be better to consider how to get to the main road and where to find a place to rest...
I was careless...
I originally thought about replenishing the water source here, but the filtered water only filled the bottom of the bottle.
On the contrary, he consumed one of the two bottles of water he had left.
Now he only had one bottle of water and the bottom of a bottle left, and he was afraid that he would not be able to use it to brush his teeth tomorrow morning.
Moreover, he had just drunk a bellyful of noodle soup, which might be a bit salty, so he not only did not feel that he had enough water, but he even felt a little thirsty.
He still remembered Han Bing's warning that this was already very dangerous in the wilderness.
You will... be thirsty!
...
Huh, Lu Xin sighed, raised his head, and looked around in the wilderness under the light of the red moon.
Then he found...
...he was lost.
At this time, he was in an unknown wilderness, surrounded by wild grass everywhere, and in many places, even the road surface had been covered. Looking into the distance, he could not see the shadow of the main road, and even the village where he came from was gone.
Everywhere he could see was a patch of dense forests, located in various places in the wilderness.
"Glasses, bring up the map."
Lu Xin tried to look at it for a while, then shouted softly.
He didn't dare to speak loudly in the wilderness, fearing that something would hear him.
On the left mirror, a burst of data jumped, and Lu Xin saw the map, and at the same time saw a jumping point in the map.
This point showed exactly where he was now.
It can be clearly seen that this location has deviated far from the main road he wanted to take at the beginning.
Originally, after leaving the village, he planned to go back along the small road and return to the intersection where he turned off the main road.
Now that he has been driving along the small road for so long, he should have been close to the main road.
But in the end, he was farther away from the main road.
"The road at night is too difficult to walk..."
Lu Xin muttered, looked up at the bright and bright red moon, and said with relief: "Fortunately the moonlight is bright enough..."
From the map, he determined the direction of the main road, chose a small road, and drove forward.
The sound of the motorcycle was unusually clear in the silent wilderness.
In the wild grass that was as tall as a person, there seemed to be some eyes staring at him grimly.
After walking along the path for a while, Lu Xin stopped.
Because he found that the road he was walking seemed to be a little wrong. He did not approach the main road, but walked parallel to it.
"Wrong direction?"
Lu Xin thought, and took out the compass from the bag hanging on the handlebars.
In the moonlight, he opened it and saw that the compass needle was spinning like a headless fly.
This was a state where some kind of magnetic field affected the needle.
Lu Xin had no choice but to put away the compass, looked up into the distance, compared it with the map on the lens, and slowly sorted out his thoughts in his mind:
"The main road extends all the way and turns right in front. In this way, as long as I keep a straight line, I will return to the main road no matter what if I keep going forward... Anyway, there is enough gas in the motorcycle, so I'll just go out for an outing..."
Having made up his mind, he started the car again.
The light of the motorcycle tore a hole in the dark world sprinkled with a hint of dark red, and the path was looming in the weeds.
"Beep beep beep"
"Beep beep beep"
The motorcycle drove forward all the way. After half an hour, Lu Xin stopped and opened the map again.
Then Lu Xin suddenly felt sorry for the gas money.
On the map, his position seemed to have not moved, and he still maintained the original distance from the main road.
What the hell?
I have been driving for quite a while...
...
"Glasses, show me the route I just took."
Lu Xin said softly, and the picture on the left lens began to change. Soon, Lu Xin saw a green straight line, which was the road he had walked. He could clearly see that he had been moving for nearly two hours, but the route he moved on was an ellipse on the map, over and over again, in circles, over and over again...
So...
Lu Xin looked up at this spooky and strange wilderness, and gradually remembered a legend:
"I encountered a ghost wall?"
"..."
Lu Xin couldn't help but cheer up.
When he was a child, he also loved to listen to ghost stories. He had heard too many such things, but this was the first time he encountered one.
What should you do when you encounter a ghost wall?
He thought of several solutions:
1. Put your underwear on your head and keep walking forward, and you can leave.
2. Spit three times behind you.
3. Cursing all the way, walking forward without looking back.
…
Lu Xin pondered for a while and rejected the first plan.
He pondered for a while again and rejected the third plan. After all, cursing is not good.
Then he hesitated, looked around, and made sure that his sister was not around, and then he quickly spat three times.
Then he held the handlebars tightly and moved forward quickly.
Half an hour later, he stopped.
Because he clearly recognized a big rock on the side of the road, which was where he spit.
Sure enough, I shouldn't believe those legends, they are not scientific.
I walked for half an hour in vain, and how much oil I had to waste...
After taking a deep breath, Lu Xin sat in the car, slowly lit a cigarette, and began to think about a scientific solution.
First clearly summarize the problem I am facing now: ghost wall.
Problem description, without being able to detect it, I keep circling in a certain place.
The core of the problem: A "ghost" disturbs one's thinking and perception...
From this, we can infer that the solution to the "ghost wall" is:
Find the ghost!
…
…
"Uncle, aren't you an experienced driver? How can you get lost?"
Also under the shining of this red moon, a modified truck was moving slowly and swaying. In the car, a middle-aged man with a big beard, with a dirty pair of underwear on his head, slammed the map on the dashboard and cursed:
"There is nothing on the broken map..."
"It must be that you didn't mark the map carefully, otherwise you can't find the way back to the camp when you clearly return by the original route?"
"..."
"Didn't you see that I marked it carefully on the map?"
Sitting on the co-pilot next to him was a young man in a denim shirt, also wearing a pair of underwear, and said unconvincedly: "I can only blame you. You insisted on searching a few more villages before it gets dark. How much can there be in this small broken village?"
"Now it's good. We can't get out and can't get back to the camp. Do you think the front of the car will wait for us?"
"..."
"Even if we have to wait, we have to be punished..."
The middle-aged man muttered in annoyance, frowned and looked out the window: "It's really weird, are we really in a ghost wall?"
"Don't talk about ghosts at night, bah bah bah..."
The young man in the co-pilot shuddered slightly, vomited a few times, then turned his head and quietly pulled the pants on his head, saying: "Uncle, is your folk remedy of wearing underwear on the head useful? There is no change for a long time..."
"It's just that the smell is getting stronger and stronger..."
"..."
"That's what the ancestors said..."
The middle-aged man also looked puzzled: "Could it be that the ghosts after the red moon don't understand the rules of the ancestors?"
The young man was stunned when he heard these false words, and said with a sad face: "Or, we... leave at dawn?"
"No, absolutely not..."
The middle-aged man hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's okay to keep walking in this broken place, but I get nervous when I stop..."
"Then..."
When the young man heard this, he was also confused and looked forward in a daze.
"Go, keep going!"
The middle-aged man cursed fiercely, "When I shot a madman, I was also accurate with one shot."
"Now I don't believe it, I can't get out!"
"..."
The truck luxuriously stepped on the accelerator, swayed, and rushed forward along the path.
However, the energy that had just been raised was quickly lost.
Under the illumination of the car lights, they saw a crooked tree growing in front of the winding path.
There were obvious marks of axe chopping on it, which was very eye-catching.
This was the first time they found the marks made when they were circling.
"What should I do..."
The young man turned to look at the middle-aged man: "Uncle, if we keep driving like this, the gas will run out..."
"Let me slow down first..."
The middle-aged man sighed and said, "Is there any other way to get out?"
"Swear?"
"Spit three times behind you?"
"Carry a knife to look fiercer? Damn, I even carry a gun, but it's not fierce enough?"
"..."
The young man trembled and said, "Could it be that the ghosts after the Red Moon are too traditional and only recognize knives, not guns?"
