0257 Chapter 7 The sound of the piano is still confused Chapter 11
She found that she seemed to be in a corridor. The dark green metal wall was densely covered with golden lines. The lines were straight lines, turning at precise geometric angles, and did not intersect with each other.
Such walls reminded her of the complex interconnected corridors in the huge object called the "ship" that she had seen not long ago.
By the way, I should have left the spaceship and gone back to the team space, right? Yunyun and the others should also be there...what about after that?
It seems...I can't remember.
Is this still the same spaceship? Is the Lamarck game called "Rescue Choice" not over yet? Is it just a dream to shoot through the memory of the day with Yunyun using the fairy's magic weapon?
No wonder Mei Xianshi thinks so. The only passageway she has ever seen or even heard of that is made of metal is the one she experienced on the Sophocles last time.
But even so, Mei Xianshi was still analyzing and thinking very calmly.
Yes, "exceptionally" calm.
She was not a moody girl to begin with, but she was only thirteen years old after all. Being separated from a trusted partner, there should always be a bit of panic. At least, there should be concern for the one she was thinking about.
But there was nothing at the moment. She felt as if she had returned to the state of calmness of mind that had long been forgotten in her memory tens of thousands of years ago.
So she carried out the most necessary actions precisely like a puppet, while trying to use Qu Yun's magic stone to contact her friends while carefully walking through the metal passage. A set of silver needles was clamped between the fingers of her right hand, ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time.
crisis.
With extra caution, the crisis never appeared. But this complicated and seemingly endless metal passage...
Dead end, three forks, long steps, five intersections, bronze statues, another dead end...
None of the friends in Yunshang's Immortal Mansion answered her call.
Mei Xianshi roughly determined her situation. This was a maze, the kind of maze where great monks or emperors bury their secret treasures and coffins after death.
Observing and thinking carefully, Mei Xianshi has been walking in the maze for countless hours. The more she walks, the more tired and sleepy she feels. It feels like if she relaxes and falls asleep, her whole body will be kicked.
Out of this general space-time that only allows sanity and reason to exist.
She took out the food that Qu Yun gave her to replenish her calories and physical energy, and also swallowed two dust-level brain-refreshing pills that she refined. All of this had no effect, and she felt as tired as a trial in the immortal sect.
The layers are doubled.
Finally, when she came to a five-way intersection, she carefully observed the lines on the wall for a long time. Finally, she chose an entrance leading down the stairs.
This road was exactly the way she had come, and it was also the first time she looked back after coming to the maze. Her exceptionally clear mind allowed her to always remember every path she had taken.
As soon as I took a step back, the floor under my feet suddenly became empty. The three steps in the steps retracted into the wall like arrows, revealing the ferocious trap below, which was densely packed with ice picks.
However, Mei Xianshi seemed to have been prepared, and her left foot did not step out firmly. Her center of gravity immediately returned to her right foot, without losing her center of gravity for even a moment.
Then, she easily crossed the stair trap and continued walking down.
This time, what waited for her along the way were ice picks that suddenly fell from the top of the wall, ice picks that suddenly shot out from the wall, circular saws that shuttled quickly on the floor, ax blades that echoed in the corridor like a pendulum, and more that suddenly disappeared.
The floor and the huge metal ball that almost filled the passage were chasing her and crushing her...
But all of this was easily avoided by her in the most reasonable way. If anyone else saw it, they would definitely think that this was a wonderful performance that had been rehearsed countless times.
In fact, every one of the dense traps is enough to kill a person, and this is under the premise that Mei Xianshi uses strange footwork to avoid many plots.
Finally, she came to the room with a bronze statue that she had passed once before. The bronze statue was of a naked girl, life-size. She was about the same height as Mei Xianshi, but she had a deer's head on her head.
The sculpture was not lifelike at all. The deer had a cold expression on its face, looking like a corpse that had been dead for a long time, or a machine without emotions.
In the room, a large screen that didn't exist the last time I passed by appeared on the wall.
On the screen was a fluffy wolf head, wearing glasses, and the exposed upper body showed that it was wearing a white coat made of cotton. At this moment, the wolf seemed to be smiling at Mei Xianshi, with a professional friendliness on his face:
"Please tell me, how did you avoid all the traps I set?"
The wolf's tone is neither angry nor tough, but it makes people subconsciously want to obey. It is an instinctive premonition that if you resist, you will inevitably pay a huge price.
"Through the lines on the wall, the gold thread seems to be unbreakable, but there are many places that are unnaturally missing. If you look closely at some of the missing places, you can see some mechanisms. So I wrote down all of them.
Missing location.
If these traps were set by you, you should not have destroyed the original buildings, as these are all flaws." Mei Xianshi told the truth frankly. She judged that she could not achieve her purpose by hiding something here.
"I see, then why did you choose to look back?" The wolf in the white coat had a serious expression, as if he was interviewing at a company.
Mei Xianshi smiled faintly: "As I move forward, I will only become more and more relaxed and tired. Is this also your fault? I think if I stop and take a nap, I will probably be thrown out by you. Although I don't know
Where will it be thrown?"
"You haven't answered my question yet, please answer why you turned back. And you think you will be thrown out by me, is it just subjective speculation?" The wolf's tone was not anxious, he just stated a problem in a business-like manner.
"You see, this is actually the same problem. I have walked all the roads here, more than once or twice. Every road that is not a dead end will lead to another passage that I have walked. And only this one has a bronze statue
I only saw the room once.
In my knowledge, there is only one situation where this phenomenon occurs. This is neither the inside of a 'ship' nor an ancient cemetery city, but an immortal formation, a phantom formation that prevents those who stray into it from getting out.
.
Metal walls, mysterious patterns, deadly traps, everything is possible in the phantom array. They don't really exist, but they can really hurt people who accidentally enter the array.
Fortunately, the level of your phantom array is not high. When I was wondering why the hidden traps were never activated, I realized the meaning of their existence: that is to control the direction of my progress and prevent me from finding the eye of the array.
So I backed off. This was just an attempt. If it didn't work, I would keep trying until the traps were activated and pointed in the right direction. You see, you shouldn't be superfluous and destroy these walls."
"I see, then how do you know this? There is an obvious flaw in your statement, that is, you assume that you realize that the channel circulates disorderly within a certain range. And if this is the case, unless you carve a mark
, a disordered cycle is impossible to detect."
Only this time, there was a hint of emotion in the wolf's voice.
