It was already very difficult to pry something out of the puppet master's mouth; but when it became so difficult, Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but secretly begin to wonder if he was being entangled in some long-lost emotion that made him uncomfortable.
—For example, embarrassment.
After all, he led the way, found the place, and forgot things, and everyone noticed them one by one. It would have been a bit embarrassing for anyone else, let alone the puppet master?
If the puppet master felt uncomfortable, he would definitely make other people feel uncomfortable as well. On the verge of becoming angry just looking at him, Lin Sanjiu and Yu Yuan looked at each other and stopped in time.
"I'll tidy it up,"
Yu Yuan adopted the matter-of-fact attitude of the Data Body school, which actually had the effect of calming the situation: "Jotans has never talked about this place before, and you have never heard of it. After Lin Sanjiu boarded the ship,
Not long ago, he suddenly mentioned it to you... At that time, Yuan Xiangxi and I didn't come back, and Oasis didn't have a 'divination' either. This matter should have nothing to do with Oasis."
The puppet master expressed his non-objection with a firm silence.
"The reason why you decided to fly here is naturally because Chotans gave you a very good reason during your discussion." Yu Yuan looked around and said: "Not only is the reason good, but you must also be convinced that this place is not
Traps, there is no danger, or in other words, the degree of danger is not enough to offset the reason for coming here, so you will come here."
"Jotense will not harm us intentionally," Lin Sanjiu said immediately.
Yu Yuan nodded at her and continued to speak to the puppet master: "Because you always knew why you came, so you didn't think about the reason for coming on the way. This is normal and human. After landing,
You walk on the stone beach for a while, and gradually you feel that it is different from what you thought. When you recall what you were thinking about before, you realize that you can't remember it."
"No, it's not that I can't remember," the puppet master said in a gloomy voice, "it's that I don't know."
What's the difference?
Lin Sanjiu was about to ask, but after thinking for a while, she shut her mouth. Yu Yuan glanced at her, and he had no choice but to do it himself: "What do you mean..."
"I can't remember. I knew it at first, but then I forgot about it." The puppet master's words were like blades being cut off one by one, piercing into the air: "I don't know, it's because I never knew.
I thought I knew before, but that was probably just an illusion."
Hallucination?
There is no need for details, no reason, and no need to use memory; if the puppet master has the illusion of "knowing why he is going to a certain place," then no wonder he has nothing left after the illusion fades.
Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but take a breath and quickly looked around again - the stone beach was still the same as before, with scattered blackbirds perched on clusters of stone pillars under the cloudy sky; despite the gloomy and solemn environment,
But it didn't touch her instinct for danger.
The puppet master came ashore before them and had already looked around. As long as he was not further affected by an unknown force, if there was any danger nearby, he probably wouldn't be able to escape his ears.
"Where is the great witch?" She couldn't help but ask, "Has the great witch always been able to observe things around you? What did she say?"
"The car hit a tree and you remembered that there was a plate that braked. Did you know that there was a big witch?" The puppet master glanced at her gloomily, "Why don't you take a guess? The big witch has the answer.
But she refuses to tell me, or does she have the answer but doesn’t know it and has to wait for you, an old wise man, to remind her?”
Just say that the great witch didn't know what was going on. Lin Sanjiu scratched her face and said "oh" without embarrassment.
However, even the great witch can be fooled... Who used such a powerful method, and how did it fall on the puppet master?
"Even you fell into the trap without knowing it. It seems that no matter who it is, they will not be able to escape and end up in this place." Yu Yuan sighed in time.
His data-like attitude made his words sound very down-to-earth and believable, as if he was saying that the sky is blue and the sun is very hot, not at all like flattery; the puppeteer is as solid as a stone sculpture.
The fierce face finally relaxed a little.
"I believe in Qiao Tans anyway," Lin Sanjiu said, "He is for us, and even...he won't deliberately trick us into coming here."
"Not necessarily," the puppet master said coldly, "If he really lied to me, he now has the best reason not to act together."
Lin Sanjiu rarely gets truly angry towards the puppet master - at this moment she looked at him seriously, gritted her teeth and remained silent; the puppet master had no hope for humanity at all, so these words were not worthy of her response.
.
"Jotense doesn't know that we have an envoy who will wake up Orcius," Yu Yuan reminded gently. Seeing that the puppet master didn't really seem to believe that Jotense was harboring a conspiracy, he changed the subject.
, continued: "The point is, what should we do next? I suggest everyone check around again to see what is weird about this place."
"I didn't go very far just now," the puppet master agreed with the suggestion, "I haven't gone yet—"
Unexpectedly, the second half of his sentence was interrupted by a sudden buzzing sound under the sky; everyone turned their heads in surprise, and then discovered that from far away from the stone beach, deep in the distant grassland, there was a roaring sound rising from the sky.
A cylindrical aircraft flew up. Because of the distance, the aircraft seemed to be only as big as a thumb, and everyone could hardly feel the wind; in a moment, it had risen into the clouds and disappeared.
"Is there anyone in the distance?" Lin Sanjiu said blankly, "Were they also deceived by hallucinations?"
"Let's go over and take a look," Yuan Xiangxi said with great interest. It seemed that for him, the only things left in the world were outings. "The fact that they can still fly away in an aircraft shows the danger.
Not big, right?"
"If there are others, you can at least inquire about the situation." Yu Yuan also nodded and looked at the puppet master again, as if he suddenly remembered that the other person was equivalent to an evolved version of a mosquito repellent, but he said nothing.
.
As she watched them decide on the rules, say hello to her, and then turn around and walk towards the stone beach, Lin Sanjiu still felt that there was a vague idea at the edge of her consciousness that she couldn't catch;
He stood there and thought hard for a while, trying to pull it out.
"Xiaojiu, why don't you leave?" Yu Yuan turned around and called her.
Yuan Xiangxi waved to her, and even the puppet master turned his head away with an annoyed look.
At this moment, the originally vague idea suddenly became bright in Lin Sanjiu's mind - she had been thinking about such a simple thing for a long time.
"Hey," she shouted loudly, "since we were tricked and no one stopped us, why don't we just leave? I don't believe there are any must-see wonders in this place.
"
The three faces in the distance, under the gloomy sky, stayed motionless towards her for a few seconds.
The puppet master was the first to turn around, leaving her with a back view.
Yuan Xiangxi said nothing, just shook his head, as if this proposal was not worth taking to heart; Yu Yuan laughed softly, turned around, and greeted again: "Stop joking, come on, let's go again."
If you delay any longer, it will get dark soon."
The leeks I sowed last month have not sprouted a single bud. I think this batch of seeds is finished and there is no hope. I have to buy another pack of seeds.
