Chapter 32 The culprit
What is this guy talking about? No one can react for a while. What turned into a butterfly and me? Can I still be a butterfly?
Only Dake, who cooperated with the tacit understanding, understood the meaning of Shuer's story at the first time, his face changed slightly, and he whispered: "You mean, we..."
"Ha, you guessed it right, Dark. We always felt that the caravan was missing, Ma Lian and the others were missing, and they were swallowed by the ghost space by our side. But what if the person who was really missing was us? What if the person who was trapped in the ghost space and could not be separated from it was ourselves?"
Shuer's words were actually very slow, but perhaps it was too much beyond the perception of the parasites, which made it difficult for them to accept. However, the warriors were different. They had a wide enough experience and rich enough knowledge. Therefore, Shuer explained a little that both mercenaries on both sides and priests on both sides quickly understood his ideas.
Because I understood, I was shocked.
We are the victims trapped in the ghost space? Now here is actually the ghost space? We are inside the ghost space, one of the three mysterious killers?
"Haha, I was shocked, right? After the first time I thought so, I was even more surprised than you."
"Think about it, in the empty wilderness, our group of people disappeared silently, leaving no information behind, only the lonely carriage and the empty camp, still in Pavatiga. Just like the passengers on the ghost ship that year, no one knows where we went, nor what we encountered."
"Wait, it's not right." Dark finally came back and asked in confusion. "There are quite a lot of things in our convoy, and the goods they carried were not short of. Even this missing caravan... Well, even the place where we stood was left by the caravan. You can't deny it."
"That's right."
"Then the question comes. I remember you said before that the ghost space manifests itself as all non-physical inanimate objects will be left in Pavatiga. Only the things you carry with you will be sucked into the ghost space together with the living beings." Dark pointed to the surrounding environment, "Theoretically, if we are sucked into the ghost space, there should be no rituals. It is better to hike in the wilderness. There shouldn't be carriages, we shouldn't see the parasite camp, and we shouldn't see the current camp. These are all lifeless. How did they come in?"
"You made a mistake, Dark. The first half is right, those things will stay in Pavattiga, but I never said that in the second half." Shuer shook his head, "Why shouldn't you see these? Haha, do you still remember the first survivor of the known ghost space, what is the most feared in the second half of his life? The fear that you can't forget even in madness."
"Mirror?" Dark held the rose in his hand tightly, his voice full of surprise, "All these are, all, all mirrors?"
"Is it impossible? Haha, let's assume the principle of ghost space, although it's completely random guessing." Shure asked, "If the principle of formation of ghost space is caused by some reason, based on part of the Pavatiga world as the blueprint, it forms a mirror space. Every grass and tree in the mirror space is exactly the same as the original blueprint, including the man-made objects in this area at that point in time, such as carriages, and camps. You and I should be familiar with this process."
"Yeah, it's similar to the initial formation process of alien projection."
"Yes, but then it's different. What about the life within the scope after this mirror space is formed?"
"All of them were all allocated to the mirror space?"
"Maybe they were all divided, maybe there was only a part, so this is unknown. But one thing is certain. When it comes to the ghost space, the victim is also ignorant and has no idea what is happening to him."
"Just like the example you gave last night, most of the survivors came out and knew that they had entered the ghost space through other people's narratives?"
"That's it. In their eyes, most of the things around them are normal, so they can't find it. They are already in danger." He pointed to Dark, and Shuer said leisurely, "Tsk, you haven't even noticed the guy who is so vigilant, let alone some ordinary people."
"So, those victims continued to move in the ghost space? What will they encounter?"
"How could I know? It's easy to know. If my previous guess is correct, it's true that we were sucked into the ghost space, you can leave now, and run as far as you go, maybe you can discover what they have encountered."
"Get out." Dark made a rude gesture and said angrily, "Maybe you are right, but this is actually all speculation. Why do you so sure of your guesses and even gather everyone here?"
"I can't be sure we are the missing persons, but I can be sure that the area we are in is absolutely abnormal."
"Because... that fireworks?" Dake blew at the fire that was still smoking slightly.
"It's just for me to verify. I was the first to determine that the environment was abnormal, and it was the traces at the door."
"I remembered that when you entered the door just now, you suddenly looked scared, as if you had seen a ghost. You decided to talk about this with the beautiful Lin Jing in the future. She must like to listen to it very much. Haha, Shul will be afraid too."
Shuer did not explain, so he naturally would not show fear because of this degree of change. The problem is that he is not the only one who falls into the ghost space. Some of the heat involved makes him afraid. Of course, he doesn't want to explain his psychological activities, so...
"Damn", Dark blocked the hammer's strike, "Damn, you bastard actually attacked, where is the dignity of a man?"
"Creen Moon, if you look at the mark at the door now, you will understand what I mean." He completely ignored Dark's protest, just as the person who tried to silence the words was not himself, Shuer said seriously, "The traces carved on the wood will definitely change over time. However, over the past day, the marks on the wood are still no different from those carved on the new ones."
The Crescent Knight was stunned and hurried back to the camp gate. After a while, he returned with a strange look on his face and nodded with a bitter face.
"After discovering this problem, combined with the story I remembered last night, I began to completely doubt the world, and the abnormally burning fire just made my thoughts verified."
"Why does this happen?" Dark asked.
"How do I know that it's enough to know that it's abnormal." Shur rolled his eyes and said, "The Lord teaches us not to be too obsessed with demanding the truth of everything. The wisdom of mortals is limited, and applying limited wisdom to what is needed is the wisest behavior."
"Your Dark Moon Goddess really said that?" Dark said disdainfully with his eyes slanted, "Look back, the four behind you are already looking at the look of wanting to hit people."
"Impossible, Lisa nodded wisely, indicating that I was right." Without looking back, she knew what was going on behind her back. Xiu said calmly, "It's possible for others."
"It's true that he's talking nonsense again." Dark waved his fist, but he also knew that Shuer was right. Yes, how could he know why.
"I can only guess that maybe the time rules of the two spaces are different. Well, to be more common, that is, the time flow rate is different, and the one here is faster. Whether it is the wooden pile at the door or the fuel in the firewood pile, they are all copied. At different time flow rates, they are more affected by the rules of the real world, so they show a state closer to the real world, just as you said just now, it seems that time has been extended."
The explanation given by Shuer is very casual, but no one can refute it. After all, everyone knows almost zero the mysterious phenomenon of ghost space.
"Forget it, I'm not interested in these things, so I'll leave them to the scholars to study them. As for when we were brought closer to the ghost space, why did Ma Lian and the others disappear, there is still time to discuss these things afterwards." Dark waved his hand, "Now, solving the problem is the most important thing. Assuming what you said is true, depending on your attitude, you have obviously found a solution, then show it. Whether your guess is correct or not will be clear at a glance."
"Of course, of course." Shuer jumped off the table and took more than twenty people and walked slowly towards the three large tents that had held a banquet.
"Don't you find it strange? If we were trapped in the ghost space, then what about Ma Lian and the others?" As she walked, Shuer said leisurely, "If we, and the parasites, were trapped in the ghost space before the night before, then Ma Lian should be with us, and would not disappear suddenly later. And if Ma Lian left us and we were trapped in the ghost space, then Linda would not have found that the person was gone when she came here to investigate early yesterday morning. This is a very contradictory thing."
"Nothing strange." Dark said for granted, "Ma Lian and the others disappeared, not because we entered the ghost space, but because they... went out."
"Yes, they left by chance. This is the only answer I can think of. So it's actually very simple to get out of here. Just repeat what Ma Lian and the others did in the end."
"What did they do in the end? Of course, they came to this tent that was the main venue."
"It's because of fate. When they were checking here, they accidentally encountered the toy left behind under the table."
The table was lifted up one after another, and the toys under the table were exposed to everyone's sight, still maintaining their original appearance.
"Have you played gyros when you were a child? I played it." Shure slowly reached his hand to the gyros, "But I have never seen gyros that can maintain balance and not fall even without spinning."
The details were too small, and the gyro on the ground was not tilted, but was standing straight on the ground. No one cared about it, and they thought it was leaning against the toys around it to maintain balance. However, after reminding, it was discovered that although it was very close, it did not touch anything.
"I don't know what a medium is, but I know that at least in this ghost space, the medium is likely to be this gyro. So, what will happen if we change the state of the gyro like Ma Lian and the others?"
