[One-way channel] is really dangerous after it is activated: even Lin Sanjiu, who activated it, can't find where it is.
Not only is it difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, even the perception skills that Kurosawa Ji taught her, Pina's observation power, and even the consciousness of the great shrine maiden are unable to find [one-way traffic] from the surrounding environment - they
Standing on a large piece of wild grass between sea rocks, the waves hit the distant reefs and beaches; under the dark blue sky with heavy clouds, everyone's eyes swept back and forth across the open space, with blank faces, but no one could be found.
Traces of one-way channel].
If Pina hadn't yelled "Wait a minute" before activating it, then quickly took out a bucket of paint that was in the storage bag for some reason, and poured a puddle on the ground as a mark, I'm afraid Lin Sanjiu wouldn't even be able to do the experiment now.
I feel uneasy.
"This can be considered a living thing, right?" Lin Sanjiu raised her hand. In her hand was a ball of weeds that she had just dug out with the roots and mud. "I'll throw it in and take a look."
"Don't put your hands over the paint," Pina warned worriedly.
Everyone's eyes were focused on that unremarkable bunch of weeds, but no one could tell when exactly it disappeared into the air and never fell to the ground again.
It seems that even weeds that "cannot move forward on their own" will still be forcibly sent into the sub-space as soon as they enter the [one-way passage].
"I can't see anything at all," Lin Sanjiu sighed, "Then how can we tell the result?"
"Wait a minute," Qingjiuru said suddenly, "According to the description, there is nothing in the subspace except force field turbulence, right?"
Mausi responded: "Yes."
"Then I have a way, maybe it can be used." Qingjiuliu nodded at him, then strode to Lin Sanjiu and took out a candle.
"You remember this, right?" He looked at Lin Sanjiu and said, "When we looked into the [One-way Passage], the grass, sky, and rocks we saw were of course the disguise of the [One-way Passage]. Then just light this
With the [Wax of Truth], we may be able to clearly see the original appearance of the subspace."
Lin Sanjiu thought for a long time before recalling the [Wax of Truth] that he had used before seeing the dimensional crack. He suddenly became energetic and slapped Qing Jiuliu hard on the back.
Qingjiuru's guess is good. Although the [One-way Channel] is very hidden, its camouflage effect still gradually fades away like melting under the light of [Wax of Truth]. It's like being eroded and swallowed by some black hole.
A mass of churning darkness gradually appeared between heaven and earth - a bit of grass-green disappeared from the black abyss and was never seen again.
That ball of weeds seemed to have been torn into pieces by the force field turbulence in the past minute or two.
Everyone stared at the black abyss that looked like the entrance to another world, and for a moment no one knew what to do.
"Shall I send Renben in?" Lin Sanjiu thought for a while and finally came up with an idea. "Maybe it's not a living thing... If you tie it with a rope or something, send it into the subspace to find it.
Yu Yuan’s words…”
"What is human nature?" Maus asked.
"Yes, you haven't seen him in such a long time, and here he is, this guy." Lin Sanjiu said, having already taken out Renben from the "seed".
The old woman who was also contained in the "seed" twisted around restlessly, as if she was planning to squeeze herself into Lin Sanjiu's hand and let her accidentally drag her; Lin Sanjiu "pushed" hard.
"After hitting her twice, he pushed her back.
Lin Sanjiu didn't have much consciousness left, so he had to ask the great witch to pull out a little bit and use it as a pole to push Renben towards the [one-way passage]; however, Renben's blank and flat head turned around.
In the past, as soon as I faced the black abyss not far away, I immediately seemed to go crazy, struggling and struggling, as if I was so scared that I didn't even want to get close - if I could scream, it might even hurt the eardrums.
broken.
"Forget it, come back," Lin Sanjiu sighed.
If force is used, the human body cannot escape the fate of being pushed in; but looking at how scared it is, I am afraid that even if it is pushed in, it will not be able to hold on for long. In the end, if the human body is lost, it will be nothing.
"Could it be considered a kind of creature?" The great witch frowned, pulled back her consciousness, and pushed it back to Lin Sanjiu. "It looks so ugly. If you ask me, you might as well push it in and give it a try.
"
"You don't know, it's so useful. It's really inconvenient to lose it." Lin Sanjiu took Renben back with great care; everyone was once again helpless.
During the brief silence, the puppet master suddenly turned his head and glanced at Yuan Xiangxi - the latter was excited, jumped up immediately, and hurriedly took a few steps towards Lin Sanjiu.
Probably because he was afraid that the unspoken idea of the puppet master would spread among everyone, Yuan Xiangxi thought for a while and made a suggestion first: "Living things can't survive, then can non-living things exist? If we throw in a... for example
, something like a calling device, will it be shattered by the turbulence of the force field, or will it remain intact and continue to make calling sounds in subspace?"
Lin Sanjiu's eyes lit up and she understood what he meant. "Yes, Yu Yuan is not someone who just waits to die. If he uses some method to temporarily save his life, then if he hears the call, he might follow the sound to find the exit.
Woolen cloth?"
She also knew that 90% of this idea was wishful thinking; but no matter how outrageous the method was, it was always better than being helpless.
"I can use my consciousness to protect the calling machine," the great witch also suggested proactively, "to see if my consciousness will be consumed by the turbulent currents, and at the same time, there will be no delay in sending the call to the subspace."
Although there was almost no friendship between her and Yu Yuan, it seemed that she had developed some appreciation for the young man in just a few days of getting along.
Once the plan was made, everyone moved very quickly; they didn't have a pager, and within half a minute, the great witch had used her consciousness to wrap up an alarm clock that kept screaming and put it into the [one-way passage] - Rao
As soon as the thing was thrown in, she quickly cut off the connection with her consciousness and still let out a low groan, as if something had bitten her finger.
"If it hadn't been cut off in time, I'm afraid my entire sea of consciousness would have been dragged in," she explained softly when Pina asked.
With the protection of consciousness, the alarm clock was caught in the rolling black abyss, appearing and disappearing, rising and falling, and always ringing loudly; even through the [one-way channel], everyone could hear it clearly.
.The item description only states that there is no oxygen in subspace, but now it seems that there is still gas that can transmit sound.
Lin Sanjiu waited for a while, her heart seemed to be split in two, one half was held up by a thread of hope as thin as a spider's thread, and the other half sank uncontrollably deep into her body. Her eyes were sore, but the alarm clock
In the turbulent darkness behind, what continued to surge was only deeper darkness; not to mention Yu Yuan, not even a little bit of debris other than darkness could be seen.
"That level of consciousness is indeed being eroded away," the great witch said calmly. "It seems that if we persist for two or three minutes at most, the alarm clock itself will begin to suffer erosion."
The great witch's consciousness is naturally far incomparable to that of ordinary objects. If her consciousness can only last for a few minutes... Lin Sanjiu closed her eyes and took a slight breath. What protective props did Yu Yuan have on him?
Is it? She couldn't remember. But even if special items were thrown in, how long would it last?
Under the push and pull of countless turbulent force fields, everyone did not even wait for their consciousness to be completely eroded, and the alarm clock was pushed into the depths of the black abyss, out of sight. At the beginning, the sharp chirping of the alarm clock
It could still be vaguely captured; but after a while, the subspace returned to a slowly rolling heavy darkness, as if nothing had happened.
Lin Sanjiu stood blankly for a few seconds, almost numbly, and found a very common protective item from the card library. After activating it, he threw it into the black abyss.
She actually didn't hold out much hope at all - if the subspace connected to the [One-way Channel] couldn't be destroyed even by protective props, it wouldn't be called a "One-way Channel".
Sure enough, just as she had predicted, the protective prop with a faint white light had just fallen into the black abyss, and the white light dimmed instantly, swaying and flickering, as if time was running out; but
In the blink of an eye, the protective props were swallowed up into the depths of darkness by waves of turbulent force fields.
"What should I do?" Lin Sanjiu felt that she had no strength at all, and sat down on the ground. "It won't work if you throw anything in... Could it be that Yu Yuan also... He can't do it, right? He has a sharp mind and quick reactions.
He will just wait and let the black abyss eat away at him, right?"
No one answered her for a while, probably because no one knew what to say at this moment.
It was obviously just a sub-space; whether it was her "space crossing" or traveling through the universe behind the Queen Mother, she had experienced a lot——
etc.
Lin Sanjiu suddenly raised her head, the movement was so big that her neck bones made a "click" sound.
"Subspace..." she murmured, "Mother Queen...Onion Universe..."
"Have you lost your mind?" The puppeteer added the fourth word kindly.
"No, no," Lin Sanjiu said hurriedly, getting up from the ground. "We followed Siba'an - you weren't there at the time, so you don't know. The universe is not one big piece.
It is stacked up one by one, like an onion! The reason why the great flood can transport people from here to there is precisely because the great flood is equivalent to a hole in the universe..."
She was impatient with everyone's doubtful or suspicious looks, so she simply waved her hands and said: "Anyway, I have a way to try!"
If this method doesn't work, she really has nothing to do.
When the painter was called out, Lin Sanjiu explained it in detail as if explaining mathematics to a child. "Have you seen this blank card?" She held up a card produced by [Flat World].
Blank card and asked: "Do you remember that you drew a chocolate cake on the card before?"
The painter nodded.
"The chocolate cake you drew on the card will appear in another sub-space." Lin Sanjiu said as clearly as possible, "Look at that black abyss...can you see it? I need you to draw it on the card now.
A hole opened up, the hole in the black abyss."
The clarity on the painter's face turned into confusion.
"I need a hole in that subspace!" Lin Sanjiu said urgently, "As long as there is a crack in it, then logically speaking, everyone or things in the subspace should be destroyed as if they were hit by a great flood.
Enter another level of the universe - if Yu Yuan is still alive, then he can escape from the black abyss!"
"You are the only one who can come up with such a solution," Maus said with admiration, "and always look out of the box to see problems."
In theory, Lin Sanjiu's method might be feasible, but reality quickly poured cold water on everyone. It was not difficult to draw a hole in the deep and shallow darkness, and the painter quickly finished it;
But after everyone waited for a while, the image of a hole with white light appeared on the card, but it never appeared in the black abyss subspace not far away.
"You can't choose which subspace the drawn things will appear in, right," Qingjiuru quickly saw the crux of the problem and asked softly.
Lin Sanjiu wiped her eyes vigorously and said "hmm" with a nasal voice.
"[The Wax of Truth] is about to burn out," Maus said thoughtfully, "Let me try it. I once caught an animal that likes to dig holes in space, called the 'Southern Goose'...
I controlled it and forced it in to try. As long as a hole is made before the protective shield is completely eroded, it will be considered a success, right?"
"Do you have Nan Guiyan?" Lin Sanjiu could be said to be overjoyed at this moment, and even stuttered a little: "Then, the great witch... quickly, protect..."
"Who are you ordering?" The big witch glanced at her and walked closer. "Thanks to your tendency to make friends wherever you go, you bumped into a Maus."
Lin Sanjiu smiled softly and quickly urged Maus: "Are you ready? Have you put the Nanguiyan in?"
Mao Si, an expert in art, was so bold that he stepped on the paint mark with both feet and almost passed over it; Lin Sanjiu quickly grabbed the corner of his clothes and watched him slowly push the invisible creature behind the paint mark.
The colorless, completely transparent Nanguiyan - or in other words, in her eyes she saw nothing at all.
"It's very afraid of this environment," Maus reported without looking back, his voice a bit joyful: "So it's desperately hitting the subspace... It seems that it won't take long to break it!
"
Great, Lin Sanjiu breathed a long sigh of relief.
At least it is the first step to save Yu Yuan...
While Lin Sanjiu was thinking, she casually glanced aside and realized that Feng Huanyan had quietly got off the boat at some point and was standing far away, carefully watching everyone doing something she was sure
Things she couldn't understand. She had already learned about her mother's death while on the boat. From then on, Feng Huanyan's eyes were always red...
But at this moment, Feng Huanyan's face no longer looked sad and helpless.
She kept staring at Maus from a distance, her face full of strangeness and confusion, as if she had never seen him before.
What's wrong? Didn't anyone introduce Maus to her?
Maus has been on board the ship for so long...
Lin Sanjiu paused.
She turned her head, looked at the back of the man in front of her, and then looked down at the corner of her clothes she was holding.
Wait, who is Maus?
Four thousand words is not even enough! I wrote more than 4,300! This is basically all written in a week. We can see you next year and see you in 1998!
