Judging from Xiaozhi's attitude towards him before, Liu Xing is still a little worried that Xiaozhi may still be harmful to him this time. And now that he no longer has a pistol, he naturally has no confidence to go head-to-head with Xiaozhi, a "local snake".
, so Liu Xing could only choose to find Yin En as a backer first.
Ever since, Liu Xing came to the foot of the mountain.
“Are there such high mountains in the industrial area?”
Liu Xing looked at the mountain that might be more than 30 meters high in front of him, and fell into deep thought for a moment, because in Liu Xing's impression, the industrial zone was just a large flat land, with no raised areas at all, so such a big one
How did the mountains disappear?
It’s impossible to just bulldoze it, right?
Thinking of this, Liu Xing couldn't help but asked KP Broken Bridge: "KP, everything in this world should be for reference only, right? I don't think Nagoya officials will bulldoze such a big mountain just to build an industrial zone, because
This is too time-consuming, laborious and expensive, and where should the soil after bulldozing the mountain be piled? It can’t be used for land reclamation.”
"Oh, it seems that Liu Xing, you have discovered the truth of this world, although this is just the tip of the iceberg." kp Duanqiao said with a smile.
tip of the iceberg?
Liu Xing frowned and looked at the mountains in front of him.
Although the greening of this high mountain is very good, Liu Xing can still easily see that the trend of this mountain is actually quite gentle, at least from Liu Xing's perspective.
Therefore, Liu Xing thought of a possibility, and he only needed to see Yin En to confirm it.
Not long after, Liu Xing saw Yin En, who was stumbling but not injured, walking out of a mountain trail.
Seeing Liu Xing, Yin En breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Ah, Liu Xing, you finally came to pick me up this time. You know that when I found out that you didn't come to pick me up in the last world, my whole mentality was different.
alright."
Seeing Yin En pretending to be pitiful in front of him, Liu Xing was speechless for a moment, and could only give Yin En a helpless look to understand.
"I found a very interesting clue in the last world, so I went directly there, and this clue didn't disappoint me, because I did get some good things again."
Liu Xing took out the stone sculpture from his pocket and continued: "It was this thing that allowed us to restart the previous world, and my pistol was also lost in the previous world..."
Before Liu Xing finished speaking, Yin En, who had grasped the key point, opened his eyes wide and said, "Oh, no wonder you, kid, are running to look for me now. It turns out that it was because you dropped your pistol that you thought of asking me for help.
ah."
"I'm contributing to our clearance, okay?"
Liu Xing shook his head and said with a smile: "There is a shop selling second-hand safes in the Artisan Village. To be precise, it should be regarded as a shop that opens blind boxes. The second-hand safes in this shop either contain props or open another module.
An important clue, because this store is actually an abandoned case of the Cthulhu Run Game Hall."
Liu Xing told Yin En the information that KP told him before breaking the bridge, and what the other two things he got were. Of course, Liu Xing did not forget to tell Yin En the clues he collected in the previous world.
It’s Yin En.
Yin En frowned and said with some surprise: "It seems that the module we are in now is not simple. Even the abandoned cases in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall are thrown here, but the most important thing is the share
Plan, I really didn’t expect that someone would raise black goat cubs in the island country. You must know that a small place like the island country can be said to be a temple, with all kinds of secret churches everywhere, so this black goat breeding
Aren’t big players afraid that things will be exposed?”
"What's more important is that the forest used to raise black goat cubs is there... But we haven't upgraded to the Cthulhu area yet, so even if we get the exact information, we can't go there to trigger the drama; then again, we haven't upgraded to the Cthulhu area yet.
Well, this company that raises black goat cubs is called Sakai Masa Co., Ltd. Now I am increasingly confused about what happened to the Sakai Masa family and the Yamashita family, which led Sakai Masaoka to think that Kujing Village was Sakai Merchant Village, and
My grandfather is the village chief."
Faced with Liu Xing's question, Yin En said directly without thinking: "Occupy the magpie's nest. If everything that happens in this world is real, then the Sakai Masa family must have replaced Yamashita in some way.
family, and even the entire Kujing Village, but I don’t know why. By Sakai Masashi’s generation, they no longer know the truth about these things, so I think it may be that the Sakai Masashi family realized the breeding of black goats.
Raising cubs is a life-threatening job, so I decided to give up the job."
"But the biggest question now is how come Sakai Umeko looks exactly the same as Yamashita Umeko? I used to think that this was a story about a stupid young grass eating an old cow, but I didn't expect that this was probably a story involving the grudges of three generations.
story."
Liu Xing sighed, shrugged and said, "I actually have a hunch now that we actually played the role of accomplices of the villains in the Sakai Masachi incident..."
Looking at Liu Xing who was speechless, Yin En also sighed, "This is actually a very normal thing, because we are in the Cthulhu Run game lobby, and everything can happen.
, and from the perspective of Sakai Masachi, a person who knows nothing, Sakai Umeko is indeed a villain; so the question is, where should we go now? If nothing else, the current Kujing Village
That person must have disappeared too."
"That's right, I just came here to look for you after I saw that person missing, in case some irrational people were going to do something to me. And now I doubt that when we are reborn in this world, that person
The person is about to disappear, so no matter how we rush over, we can't stop him, but I can now confirm that the person's disappearance is related to the big tree in Kujing Village, and the same is true for my previous death."
Liu Xing looked at the stone sculpture in his hand and continued: "Judging from the current situation, I very much doubt that the big tree is actually a mythical creature, but it should belong to the good and lawful camp, otherwise it would not have always been
They all protect Kujing Village; but I also suspect that the big tree has been corrupted by some evil force, so that person disappeared because of that big tree."
"black goat?"
Yin En touched his chin and said: "Since the Sakai Masa family dares to pursue the idea of the black goat cub, it means that the Sakai Masa family may have made contact with Sabu Nicholas, so the Sakai Masa family wants to use the power of external gods to corrupt
Isn’t that easy for a mythical creature?”
"That's true, but then again, we haven't determined what our mission in this world is yet, so we have to be more careful this time, at least to survive tonight; by the way, I
Now there is another question I want to ask you, that is, is it really that difficult to get down this mountain?"
Liu Xing pointed at the mountain behind Yin En and said: "This mountain is actually not too high, and the slope seems to be quite normal, so Yin En, why did it take you so long to walk down?
"
Yin En looked back at the mountain, and then said with a surprised look: "Huh? This mountain is only this high? Why do I think this mountain must be at least a hundred meters high, and there are many steep places.
, there are traps everywhere, so I need to walk step by step, and it took me so long to get down."
Hearing what Yin En said, Liu Xing expressed his doubts, "So the question is, why did the previous industrial zone have such a big mountain? Then why did the future industrial zone become flat land again? I think Nagoya's
The officials probably won’t spend a lot of money to flatten the mountain, right?”
Hearing what Liu Xing said, Yin En was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Yes, there is no trace of the existence of this mountain in the future industrial zone, and it stands to reason that such a high mountain should be bulldozed.
It’s not an easy thing, both in terms of money and manpower.”
"So I suspect that this mountain is not actually a real mountain, and this world is not a real world, but a world in someone's mind."
Liu Xing said seriously: "Although this world seems normal, you can still find some clues in some subtleties, such as the distance between several villages. Now that I think about it carefully, I found that these villages
The distance between them is really a bit too close, but they are almost the same distance from each other; although this may be true, there is another thing that makes me feel a little strange, that is, most people in a village live in
All together, except for the relocated households like Kujing Village."
"When I was a child, I often went back to my hometown to worship my ancestors, so I have a certain understanding of the villages in the Shu region of China. That is, unless we are a family, the houses in a village generally do not live next to each other. Therefore, if you
If you stand on a high mountain and look at it, you will find that there are houses all over the mountains and plains, and the distance between these houses is about a hundred meters; at the same time, the distance between the villages will also be relatively far, otherwise they will not become
Two villages.”
"Although the situation in the island country may be different, I think it remains the same. At the same time, if you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that the painting style of the fields outside the village is a bit too similar. It seems that everything planted is the same.
Same, it feels a bit like the background of a game. I found several materials from the material library and started to arrange them randomly; so now I suspect that this world is actually the world in someone's eyes, and at the same time, this person may not have left where he is very often.
village, or even my own home.”
"Liu Xing, do you mean that this person may be a child?"
Yin En quickly reacted and continued to speculate: "Because only children can stay at home or in the village all the time, so his imagination of the outside world is limited to what outsiders say or what he sees.
, so he saw that Kujing Village looked like this, and thought that other villages should look like this. Then he heard that the time to go to each village was about the same, so he figured out that each village was about the same distance from Kujing Village; as for me
Why is the mountain behind so high? It may be because the child is relatively young, so he looks up to the mountain."
"At the same time, in order to prevent him from running around in the mountain, his family may have told him that the mountain is actually very steep and full of traps set by bad people, so he must not go to the mountain to play casually, so this mountain is
It’s going to be so dangerous!”
Liu Xing added helpfully: "So our mission this time may be to find this person, and then we can know what we need to do, but I already have a candidate in my mind, and that is the Xiao Gang who just disappeared. Maybe
He is not missing, but because this is the world in his eyes, he does not exist."
Yin En nodded and agreed very much with Liu Xing's idea, "Yes, self-understanding is still a bit difficult for a child. For example, my parents would ask me to get chopsticks when I was a child. If it was just a family of three eating
There is no problem if there are too many people, but if there are too many people, I often forget to include myself, because at that time, in my opinion, I might not be a human being."
"This is normal. After all, children's cognitive abilities are generally very weak, and they usually don't encounter any problems related to themselves. In other words, in a child's cognition, only his or her name can represent himself.
And 'I' does not represent myself."
Liu Xing touched his chin and said somewhat depressedly: "If these guesses are correct, then it will be even more difficult for us to find this Xiao Gang, because he may not exist in this world. Of course, we should be able to pass
Something or some way to get in touch with him... So we still have to continue to collect information, especially the information about Zhang Jingxu and Ding Kun."
"Then let's go to Goldfish Village now and find a way to get on the line with the old village chief? Then we can ask him if he has had any contact with Zhang Jingxu and the others. I think they should have had contact with each other. As long as Zhang Jingxu and Ding
Once Kun realizes his situation, they should take the initiative to contact the old village chief and find a way to get the old village chief to give us a message; so we are still employees of the construction company?"
Looking at Yin En, Liu Xing showed a strange smile, and Yin En quickly guessed what Liu Xing was thinking.
"Wang Defa, Liu Xing, you are not a human being. Do you actually want me to step on the trap myself?!"
Yes, at this time Liu Xing still hoped that Yin En could be more "conscious".
