Having experienced this kind of thing twice in succession, He Zhou was already very familiar with it.
It's nothing more than waiting until midnight, and then seeing if the black shadow is there and seeing if the village is there.
As long as the group photo and the village are there, you can directly inject a sedative to wake up your own copy.
Apart from that, he doesn't need to do anything.
Time passes minute by minute.
He Zhou looked in the direction of the village and found that there was no light there.
Then he turned his gaze back to the front of himself.
It was also pitch black ahead, and nothing could be seen.
Naturally, the black shadow is not there either.
Therefore, there was no shadow and no village, which meant that he could only continue to wait.
Waiting for the shadow to appear, waiting for the village to appear.
He Zhou felt a little bored.
He had really had enough of this kind of life.
Everyday I am not sure what to do, I am in great pain, and I am always worried.
If he could choose, He Zhou would like everything to go back to the way it was before.
Back to the boring but at least stable days of the past.
His character doesn't like this kind of wandering state, and he doesn't like to be in the company of danger every day.
But there is no way, now he can't decide anything.
He cannot control his own copy or the situation in his consciousness space.
For him, everything is full of variables.
He was very painful and painful that his life had been changed.
For him, everything has changed since the clone appeared.
It turned into something he didn't recognize.
He hates this feeling.
But, he couldn't make everything go back to the way it was before.
He Zhou lay down on the boulder.
He was waiting for time to pass, for the black shadow and the village to appear.
An hour later, he slowly sat up from the boulder.
Then he looked ahead.
In front of him, there was a dark figure sitting there, with his back to him.
"Huh? The black shadow appears again?"
He Zhou was shocked.
He never expected that this black shadow would appear again.
It has obviously been missing for a long time.
Of course, he must record the appearance of the black shadow immediately.
The copy of He Zhou found a pen and paper and quickly recorded the scene he saw on paper.
Then he stuffed the paper into his arms and looked in the direction of the village in the distance.
As he expected, the village was indeed at that location.
There were a lot of lights there, obviously emanating from the village.
So there is no doubt about it, the village appears again.
He Zhou looked at it and then started injecting sedatives.
What he has to do now is to wake up his copy quickly and let the copy deal with all this.
He Zhou took out the syringe and injected the sedative into the blood vessel.
Then he lay down on the boulder, took out the paper from his arms and held it in his hands, quietly waiting for time to pass.
One minute passed quickly.
A minute later, He Zhou felt sleepy and slowly fell asleep.
At the same time, his copy separated from the consciousness space and came outside.
As soon as He Zhou's clone woke up, he found that he was holding something in his hand. He looked at it under the moonlight and found that it was the paper left by his original body.
He quickly read the text above.
Soon he knew that it was his own body that discovered the black shadow.
"The black shadow has appeared again. It seems that the village has also come back this time."
The Hezhou clone looked in the direction of the village.
There are lights in that direction, and there are quite a few lights.
This shows that there are obviously people moving there.
There is someone in the village, maybe even a clone.
With this thought in mind, He Zhou's clone jumped off the boulder and quickly came to the foot of the mountain.
Then he got into the off-road vehicle, started the vehicle and drove towards the village in the distance.
He soon arrived outside the village.
There are people moving around in the village, but the Hezhou replicator is still unable to determine whether the village inside is a replica.
If you want to figure this out, you still have to go into the village and take a look.
The Hezhou clone got out of the car and walked all the way to the village.
There are quite a lot of people in the village.
These people are walking back and forth there.
There is something strange about the Hezhou clone. What are these people doing?
Why does it look like there is some kind of activity going on?
Is it another activity to worship ancestors?
However, wasn’t the event to worship ancestors just held yesterday?
He Zhou's clone was full of doubts and quickly came to the center of the village according to his memory.
The sacrificial activity in the village was held here yesterday.
He wanted to see if there were still sacrificial activities here today.
He Zhou's clone stopped and looked at the crowd in the center of the village.
Among the crowd, there is a cage-like thing, which is the cage where the mysterious sculpture is stored.
After looking at it for a while, the Hezhou clone quickly confirmed this.
Yes, this is indeed an ancestor worship activity.
The so-called ancestor, that is, the mysterious sculpture, is currently surrounded by villagers.
The Hezhou clone looked around, looking for the village chief.
But I looked around and couldn't see the village chief.
So the Hezhou clone had no choice but to leave the central square of the village and go to the village chief's residence to look for him.
He has been to this village many times and is very familiar with the buildings inside.
Whether it was the village chief or some other guards' residences, he already basically knew them.
He knew that the village chief must be at his residence now and could not go anywhere else.
After you find the village chief, ask carefully why there is another sacrificial activity today.
Normally, shouldn't we have a rest today after yesterday's event?
Hezhou clone was very curious about this.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in his field of vision.
When He Zhou's clone took a closer look, it turned out to be the guard he met when he first came to this village.
The guard held a knife in his hand and walked straight towards the village chief's residence.
He Zhou's clone was confused.
This guy came to the village chief's residence with a knife. What was he planning to do?
He Zhou's clone had a bad premonition in his heart.
He felt that the guard's motives were probably not simple.
He may want to kill the village chief.
As for the purpose of killing the village chief, it is actually very simple.
He Zhou's clone knew clearly that after he dealt with the intruders, everyone in the village would know how powerful he was.
The villagers are afraid of him and don't want to have contact with him.
But there is nothing they can do, it doesn’t matter whether they think about it or not.
After all, they don't have the strength to fight against the Hezhou clone.
Whether they think it or not, they cannot change the outcome in the end.
Therefore, this guard took a knife to kill the village chief, maybe because he wanted to change this situation.
Because the village chief is the one who directly deals with the Hezhou clone.
If the village chief is killed, the Hezhou clone may not come to the village again.
"etc?"
He Zhou's clone was stunned and shook his head vigorously.
"Why did I suddenly have this strange idea?"
Something is very wrong.
He actually rationalized the guard's motive for killing the village chief.
But in fact, the guard had no motive to kill the village chief.
He Zhou's clone was really surprised. How could he have such a series of thoughts in his mind and rationalize the guard's motives?
Then, he took a closer look.
There were no guards in front of Fa Jue at this time, and he seemed to have made a mistake.
"Something's wrong. Could it be that my mind has been affected by that mysterious sculpture?"
He Zhou's clone was alert.
He knew that the mysterious sculpture had the powerful power to influence people's minds.
And every time it affects people's minds, a dark shadow will appear.
And today a dark shadow did appear.
"It seems that my mind has indeed been affected."
He Zhou's clone nodded secretly.
Judging from the descriptions of those people before, his current situation must have been affected mentally.
Of course, the only difference between him and them is that he can feel his own mind being affected, but others cannot.
This is a big difference.
He Zhou's clone thought to himself that this should be the reason why his mind was not completely affected.
Otherwise, he would definitely not be aware of this.
Just like those people in the village who had their minds affected, they only realized something was wrong after the fact.
At the beginning, I had no idea what the problem was.
Therefore, the Hezhou clone thought that maybe he was quite special.
In other words, I have better luck.
Then he stopped thinking about it and strode towards the village chief's residence.
He needs to figure out a few things now. First, why is the village holding an event to worship ancestors? Wasn't this held just yesterday?
Second, he wanted to find out whether this village had been copied.
The third is to find a way to confirm whether your own mind has been affected.
Wait until all these issues are resolved before deciding on the next course of action.
He Zhou's clone thought so in his mind as he strode into the village chief's residence.
Inside the house, the village chief was kneeling in the hall, praying towards a portrait.
The arrival of He Zhou's clone did not alarm him at all.
It was obvious that his prayers were very sincere.
He Zhou's clone looked at the portrait.
From what he saw, the portrait was strange, not like any portrait he had seen before.
Generally, portraits either depict people or some kind of scenery.
But the portrait of the village chief kneeling down is neither a person nor a landscape.
Instead, there are countless blocks of color that have no meaning whatsoever.
He Zhou's clone couldn't figure out what was painted on the portrait.
At least from what he saw, the painting didn't seem to make any sense.
He Zhou's clone stood at the door and stared blankly for a while.
Unfortunately, the answer has never been found.
So he stopped thinking about it and shouted to the village chief: "Get up, what are you doing?"
The village chief was stunned, and the movements in his hands suddenly stopped.
Then, he slowly stood up and turned to look at the He Zhou clone.
The copy of He Zhou stood there motionless.
But soon he said to the village chief: "You get up first and then talk."
The village chief stood up stupidly like a zombie, and then turned around stupidly like a zombie.
He Zhou's clone felt very strange.
The village chief looks very wrong today.
Is there something wrong with the village chief, or is there something wrong with him?
He Zhou's clone couldn't understand.
After all, it is very possible that his mind is affected by the mysterious sculpture.
Everything he saw and heard was probably distorted and not true.
Just like the knife-wielding guard I just saw at the door.
After taking a closer look, I found that there were no guards at all.
Everything is just his illusion.
Therefore, the copy of He Zhou is not sure who the village chief is in front of him.
At this time, He Zhou's clone suddenly saw something.
On the table behind the village chief, there is a potion.
He Zhou's clone took a closer look and realized that the potion was a hallucinogen.
"By the way, this village originally produced psychedelic drugs."
Hezhou clone reacted quickly.
When he came to this village, the guard at the door clearly told him that psychedelic drugs were produced here.
It was precisely because he knew that the village produced psychedelic drugs that the Hezhou clone wanted to let them produce sedatives.
After all, psychedelics and sedatives are psychoactive drugs.
"Psychedelics, etc..."
He Zhou's clone suddenly thought of something.
The effect of psychedelic drugs is to cause hallucinations. Could it be that you have already had some hallucinations?
This is very possible.
Thinking of this, the Hezhou clone carefully recalled the scene he saw when he first entered the village.
He first saw the lively people in the village, and then came to the central square of the village.
There he saw more people and a cage containing a mysterious sculpture.
Also, he smelled a strange smell at that time.
Could that smell be that of psychedelic drugs?
Thinking of this, He Zhou's clone couldn't help but feel stunned.
Now things are getting more and more confusing.
Originally, he thought that his mind was affected by the mysterious sculpture.
But judging from the current situation, it is possible that psychedelic drugs have affected him.
If it were the effect of psychedelic drugs, then all conclusions would have to be overturned.
He Zhou's clone took a deep breath, looked at the village chief and asked, "How to remove the effects of psychedelic drugs?"
The village chief looked at him blankly and did not answer.
He Zhou's clone frowned, and then looked at the portrait on the wall.
This is the portrait the village chief was praying to just now.
"Perhaps the patterns on the portrait are just illusions."
He Zhou's clone thought so in his mind.
Then he looked at the village chief again.
"I asked you something, didn't you hear me?"
He Zhou's clone said in a serious tone.
However, the village chief still said nothing and just stood there motionless.
He Zhou clone thought for a while and asked: "Are you stupid?"
"No."
The village chief replied blankly.
He Zhou's clone felt more and more something was wrong.
There is definitely something wrong with this village chief.
It may be an illusion created by his mind being affected.
It may also be the effect of the psychedelic drug.
In short, the probability of the village leader is fake.
Thinking of this, the Hezhou clone directly bypassed the village chief to search for the antidote he wanted.
He thought there must be an antidote to LSD in this room.
Otherwise, wouldn't these villagers be afraid of accidentally inhaling the powder during the process of making medicine?
The Hezhou clone felt that these villagers were not so stupid and would definitely think of countermeasures in advance.
Afterwards, he searched all the way, carefully searching the village chief's residence from the inside to the outside.
Finally, after searching everything, he actually found a potion.
I don't know if this potion is an antidote to hallucinogens, but it must be unusual to appear here.
