Chapter 2 Chapter 1 Intertwining Reality and Fantasy

Ever since I deduced that Bai Su, Hong Ling and Shenying entered the illusion in the special environment of the chicken farm, I took the most stupid way (and the only way), and decided to wait for the opportunity to enter the illusion in the chicken farm, so that It is possible to meet them in the illusion. This is a typical "waiting for exemption", but I have no other choice, even Jin Wei and Wen Baoyu have to agree with me to do so. Of course, I also want to take the initiative to enter the illusion with my own strength, which requires me to be alone, so when I warned Wen Baoyu, his expression showed a rare seriousness.

He said: "Even if you can enter the illusion, you must be able to see them in the illusion?" Wen Baoyu's question made me unable to answer for a moment. He asked a question that I dared not think about. Since the situation between "reality-illusion" is very complicated, my stupid method is actually very low in feasibility. The biggest problem of course is that even if I enter the illusion, the chance of seeing them is very small-because there is a major factor of time difference. I entered the illusion back and forth, and the time in the illusion was different each time, and Jinwei's situation was the same.

So it is not that you can meet them after entering the illusion, but you must be able to cooperate in time. And what are the chances of this "just fit", only God knows! So I don't think about this question at all, I just want to enter the illusion first, maybe there is a chance to adjust the time in the illusion-this kind of thinking is naturally very self-deceiving, so when Wen Baoyu's question touches on this point, I can't answer . Wen Baoyu asked again: "You don't have the ability to actively enter the illusion, and you also don't have the ability to actively leave the illusion. If you enter the illusion and they come back from the illusion, wouldn't that be bad?"

I became anxious when he asked, "According to what you said, what should I do?" Wen Baoyu waved his hand vigorously: "We should strive for the initiative." I sneered again and again: "Beg for the details!" Wen Baoyu didn't know when he started to learn to talk around corners. He suddenly said in a rambling manner: "A long time ago, my parents took me to Hawaii for a trip, visited Pearl Harbor, and saw the warship that was bombed and sunk when the Japanese army raided Pearl Harbor. Where the Arizona sank—” I knew he did this on purpose to wait for me to get anxious, so even though I cursed him secretly in my heart, I kept my expression on the surface.

Wen Baoyu waited for a while, and when he saw that I didn't urge him, he was a little disappointed, as if a cross talk talker had no opponent to talk to, a little at a loss. I just looked at him coldly, and Wen Baoyu had no choice but to continue: "This battleship has been sunk for decades, but it has been leaking oil, and oil has been emerging from the sea water, forming pieces of oil on the water surface. " I applauded a few times: "Very good, elementary school students can get 70 points for their composition." Wen Baoyu looked embarrassed, and I snorted: "If you have something to say, it's better to say it straight!"

Wen Baoyu was very unconvinced: "I just want to make the problem clear—" I sneered: "The result is that the listeners don't understand at all!" Wen Baoyu took a breath: "I mean, an uncontrollable and constantly occurring force must have come from somewhere - like oil leaking from a sunken ship. It can invade the brain Power is no exception, there must be a place, or some kind of device, that emits this power. So the proactive approach is to find out the device that emits this power." It's not that I disagree with Wen Baoyu's words, in fact, I have already thought about this point.Because first of all, I was the one who affirmed that this kind of power is a kind of random action without control. I also imagined that there is some kind of device that emits this kind of power (Wen Baoyu’s "oil spill" metaphor is very appropriate), and of course I also once Thinking of looking for this device in the past.

But I have great concerns. My concern is: Even if I find such a device, it must be completely outside the scope of my knowledge. If there is a slight mistake, I'm afraid things will be worse than now! So I didn't do anything about it. At this time Wen Baoyu brought it up, and I sighed: "I found the device in your imagination, what are you going to do?" Wen Baoyu was very excited, as if he had really found something: "Of course we have to do some research to find out the way to freely come and go to the illusion!" I looked at him for a while, and slowly shook my head: "Now I am waiting for that kind of power to suddenly contact me. Although I don't know when it will happen, it has happened before, and there is always hope. If I really find it What kind of device, we don't know anything about it, may at any time in the process of so-called research, make that power disappear forever, then-"

I didn't go any further when I said this, because if that power disappears forever, it doesn't need to be explained, but it can be imagined. After listening to my words, Wen Baoyu looked at me with a very strange expression, as if looking at a stranger. I know why he has such an expression, so I explain myself first: "The matter is related to whether I can meet Bai Su and Hong Ling again, so I can't make any mistakes, and I can't take any risks!" Wen Baoyu was obviously dissatisfied with my explanation, he just stared at me without making a sound.I smiled wryly: "You must be saying in your heart: I'm old, I'm too old to be adventurous, right?"

Wen Baoyu answered very frankly: "I did think so at first, but now I'm sure you don't know what to do because the matter is too important." I took a deep breath: "Exactly." Wen Baoyu also took a breath: "However, I think that if you completely give up the spirit of adventure, it will only hinder things, not help. And I think Hong Ling and the others and Shenying may have found a way to enter the illusion, so they entered the illusion. .” My heart moved: "What is the basis for the cloud?" Wen Baoyu thought for a while: "It's just my imagination - because it takes a long time for the Condor to become a spirit in the illusion and reborn, and it must be in close contact with that kind of power, it is by no means waiting for a chance to succeed The Condors have already begun to transform, so we know that they get along well with that kind of power, and this is not a chance to make things happen, so I speculate that they have a way to communicate with that kind of power."

What Wen Baoyu said is very reasonable, but I have a question in my mind: "If they have already achieved such an achievement, why didn't they tell me so that I can rest assured?" Wen Baoyu's answer was a bit unbelievable, he said: "As far as I think, they never thought that you would be anxious - you often disappear suddenly for a long time, and you never thought of notifying them!" Wen Baoyu's statement is extremely simple, but it is not impossible.The most likely reason is that they didn't know that they were in an illusion, and the process of changing the life form of the condor must be extremely thrilling, so that their bodies and minds were completely immersed in this change, and they had no time to take care of other things.

In fact, it's not that Bai Su didn't contact me at all. She at least sent me a message through the flock of eagles. It's just that those ordinary eagles mistook Jin Wei for me and brought them to the chicken farm.Jin Wei entered the illusion at the chicken farm and met Hong Ling—if I had entered the illusion at that time, the development of the situation in the future might be completely different. Wen Baoyu used the simplest method to relieve a lot of anxiety in my heart, and I breathed a sigh of relief: "I think we can do both, you find your device, and I will continue to try to concentrate - Jin Wei once used this method to enter the illusion, I It should also be possible.” Wen Baoyu was very happy: "I hired an assistant, and he will be there in two days." I couldn't help frowning: "I don't want to be disturbed by irrelevant people!" Wen Baoyu laughed a little ghostly, and said: "It's not an irrelevant person. Once this person arrives, it will be of great help to the matter." Seeing his demeanor, I already knew who he was dating, so I snorted, "It's nothing more than the head-down master, I don't think it will be of any help." Of course Wen Baoyu made an appointment with Lansi - he was planning to stay with me on the chicken farm for a long time, and he couldn't bear the loneliness, so it was only natural to find Lansi as a company. Wen Baoyu said with a smile: "Master Jiangtou has a very sensitive sense, and his ability to contact with various mysterious forces is far superior to ordinary people. She may be able to enter the illusion at once, and like the last time Jin Wei brought you into the illusion Same, bring us all in!" It is also difficult to refute Wen Baoyu's statement - this is the characteristic of Wen Baoyu's speech: even if he disagrees, it is not easy to refute him in a short time. Of course, I will not object to the arrival of Lansi. In fact, the head drop technique is as mysterious as my current situation. Perhaps the arrival of Lansi can help things. Lansi came to the chicken farm on the third day, and Wen Baoyu obviously told her all the ins and outs of the matter, so she said to me as soon as she arrived: "In the head-down technique, there is a very high-level technique that can use People dream, and the situation is very similar to your experience—entering the illusion.” In a situation where there was nothing to do, suddenly hearing Lan Si say this, she couldn't help being refreshed, and hurriedly said: "Let's listen to it!" Lansi took a breath and said first, "Although I know this kind of technique, I have never used it before." I said: "You first introduce the content of this technique." The reason why I immediately accepted such a head-down technique is very simple.Because "can make people dream" is not a very complicated thing, advanced hypnotism can do this. Of course, I hope that the technique that Lansi mentioned has much richer content, otherwise it will not help the matter. Lansi nodded: "Under many circumstances, what people want to do cannot be done in reality. This technique can make people do it in a dream." Lansi said it very generally. Although I can understand what she means, I hope to understand it more specifically. Before I opened my mouth, Wen Baoyu had already said for me: "Try to illustrate it with an example." Lansi said: "For example, if someone wants to be an emperor, it is impossible in reality; let him dream, and in the dream he can become an emperor." Lansi spoke very seriously, but I felt extremely absurd—I suddenly thought of many guys who were dreaming of emperors, and what they were pursuing was really just a dream. (Even if it is a real emperor, is it not a dream?) And Wen Baoyu had already called out first: "Ah, advanced hypnotism!" Lansi glared at him: "It's not hypnotism—at least it's different from hypnotism. The dreamer feels the same as the real one, and the same degree is like entering the hallucination described by the cousin-in-law." Lan Si especially emphasized that "it is the same as entering the illusion", and I feel very skeptical.Wen Baoyu was obviously also suspicious, he just looked at Lansi, expressing his doubts with his eyes.Lansi said slowly: "I haven't experienced it myself, but I have contacted people who have experienced it. They all said that they didn't believe that experience was a 'dream' at all, and regarded it as a real experience. As we remember things from the past—the same can no longer be grasped, but it becomes a memory." Wen Baoyu lowered his voice: "Advanced hypnotism can do this." Lansi ignored Wen Baoyu and looked at me.To be honest, I agree with Wen Baoyu's point of view - I think this type of head lowering technique is actually hypnosis. But looking at Lansi's situation, it seems that she completely disagrees.In order to ask her to explain the situation in more detail, I did not comment for the time being, and did not express any opinions, but just asked her to continue talking. At the same time, my thoughts became disordered again—caused by Lansi's words just now. Lansi mentioned that people's experiences become memories. Memory is a very wonderful phenomenon. As Lansi said, I can't grasp it at all, but I know that I have had such an experience. And people have all kinds of memories, of course, all of them are the function of brain cell activity.Once the cells involved in processing the memory cease to function, the memory disappears—for that person, the past experiences are gone. Even if the memory exists, it is a phenomenon that completely disappears without a trace.Everyone has memories, so you might as well ask yourself: My memory, do I really have such an experience, or is it just a dream?Even when the boundary between reality and illusion is so blurred, does the memory come from the reality that once existed, or the illusion that once existed? You may find it funny when you start asking yourself such questions.However, if you keep asking, you will find that it is not easy to have an affirmative answer-you can try it and you will know that what I say is true. I was a little dazed at the time, so Lansi raised her voice and called for my attention. She said: "I have also seen people who have been subjected to spells, and their situation is exactly the same as what my cousin-in-law said when Jin Wei entered the illusion." Since I was thinking of something else just now, I didn't understand what she meant by that.Lansi further explained: "Their emotions in dreams can all be expressed on their faces." I was stunned for a while, this kind of situation did appear when Jin Wei's thoughts entered the illusion.I believe it was the same when I was "brought" into the illusion by Jinwei. According to Lansi, the illusion can be understood as a dream. But illusions are of course completely different from dreams—people can truly enter illusions, not just with their minds, but with their bodies.Dreams, on the other hand, can only be entered by thought. Although it can be said that there is no difference in human perception, the reality is completely different. At this time, I also understood what Lansi meant—she wanted to use this head-down technique to send me into a dream, to meet Bai Su and Hong Ling. If she succeeds in the operation, I believe that I will be able to see Bai Su and Hong Ling in the dream, because my thought is to see them, and my subjective wish is my dream. But seeing them in a dream had no effect at all, because it was just a dream. But the illusion is quite different. What happened in the illusion, although it happened in the illusion, was not a dream, but actually happened in the illusion! The difference between them is very subtle, and it is extremely complicated to explain in detail, so we have to determine such a difference. I said the difference between the two that I thought of, and Wen Baoyu first agreed, and Lansi kept walking back and forth, and after a while, she said: "I feel that the spell is somewhat different from the dream—— But I can't tell where the difference is, if you don't think you need to try, there is no loss." I smiled wryly: "When you really have no other choice, you can try it—it's better to have a dream than nothing." When I said this, my voice and demeanor showed real misery, which made Wen Baoyu and Lansi, two young people, also affected, and lowered their heads, speechless. Wen Baoyu was optimistic by nature, he returned to normal after a while, and held Lansi's hand: "Let's go, let's find the device that emits this power!" Lan Si was pulled out by him, I was still in a bitter mood, and I didn't put any hope in Wen Baoyu's actions.Just from what he said just now, it can be known that there is little hope. The device he is looking for may not exist at all, because he has no idea what kind of device it is and what kind of power it emits.Equations with too many unknowns cannot be solved! After they left, I sighed a few times, walked to a corner, and stood against the wall, not knowing what to do, my mind went blank. I naturally put my head in my hands and closed my eyes. After a while, I felt that I had never been so hesitant in my life. On this matter, there was nothing I could grasp. The feeling of emptiness was even extremely terrifying. When I thought of this, I waved my hands involuntarily, as if trying to grab something. This is of course an unconscious action, but when I was waving my hands, my right hand suddenly touched something. It was a momentary feeling. At that time, I still had my eyes closed, and I couldn't tell what I was touching just by touching it with my fingers.I only felt that the thing I touched was by my side, but as soon as I touched it, it left quickly. My reaction was quick, and I opened my eyes immediately. But I didn't see anything, only the door was still moving, from which I could tell that something or someone was leaving through the door. I first shouted: "Xiaobao, what the hell are you doing!" Then I said again: "Jin Wei, is that you?" Apart from Wen Baoyu and Jin Wei, I couldn't think of any other people who would come to the chicken farm, and Lansi would not joke with me like this. There is nothing in the room, I should only be able to touch the air when I wave my hand, but just now my hand clearly touched something! While I was thinking about it, I rushed to the door, knocked open the door, only to see that it was raining heavily outside, the sky and the earth were dark, and my vision was blurred. When I saw this situation, I was taken aback for a moment. I, Wen Baoyu, and Lan Si were discussing in the room just now, and although we were all absorbed in it, if it was raining heavily outside, there was no reason for us not to be completely unaware. And when Wen Baoyu took Lansi away, if it was raining heavily, Wen Baoyu would definitely yell, so the rain came very strangely. At that time, I only felt weird—of course, it was easy to think afterwards that the sudden heavy rain must be due to a change in the environment, that is to say, I suddenly entered the illusion!However, it is easy to think about it afterwards, but at that time, I never thought that I would suddenly and unknowingly entered the illusion, I just felt strange, in the dimness, I felt that things must be weird, but I couldn't tell where the weirdness was. It is quite difficult to describe this situation in detail, so I can only say that "the authorities are obsessed, but the bystanders are clear" - at that time, I was the "authority", and later recalled the situation at that time, I became a "bystander", so it is easy to know It was in a fantasy world. This story involves reality and fantasy, and the intersection of the two, so that things are very complicated and easy to cause confusion. When those things happened, I didn't know that I was in a hallucination. This is a point that must be explained. But I said that when I saw the heavy rain at that time, I was startled for a while, and suddenly I knew there was something weird but didn't know where the weirdness was. I stood at the door, spinning around inexplicably, and suddenly saw a lot of water marks on the door. Those water marks were obviously not splashed rainwater, but something imprinted on it.For example, if a person who is soaked all over leans against the door, such water marks will be formed. It can be seen from this that someone did enter the house just now! Thinking of this, I immediately looked into the room. I didn’t pay attention when I rushed out just now, but now I can clearly see that there are also water marks on the ground, which should be footprints.I say "probably footprints" because they don't look like human footprints, but rather oddly shaped prints. When I first saw these prints, each about one meter apart, I naturally thought: those are footprints. But after looking carefully, I shook my head involuntarily, and asked myself: If those are footprints, what kind of creatures left them? Because the shape of the imprint is so weird that one cannot immediately think of what kind of creature has such a sole. The creature was obviously not wearing shoes, so it was footprints rather than shoe prints. The footprint was about 30 centimeters long, the back half looked like a human or bear's foot, but the front half had four long and pointed forks, like toes with weird shapes. If you really want to barely tell what kind of creature's footprints it is, there is an animal called "three-toed koala" that is somewhat similar.But I don't think the kind of wild animals that live in Australia will appear here. So my first reaction was: aliens - that's a standard Wesley reaction. However, I immediately rejected this idea, and the reason for the denial was simple: Aliens came to the earth, and they would not even wear shoes. So, what kind of monster left this footprint? At that time, I was full of doubts, and no matter how I thought about it, I couldn't figure out what was going on. Of course, after the same thing, you can immediately know what left the strange footprints - I believe that friends who read this story will also know the origin of the footprints, but at that time I was in the illusion of "authority obsession". The reason, so I can't think of it. At that time, I thought for a while and turned around without any conclusion.It was still raining heavily outside the door, and I seemed to hear some noises coming from a distance, but the sound of "swooshing" rain covered everything up, and I couldn't really hear what it was. I called Wen Baoyu a few more times, but there was no response. At this moment, I suddenly heard a cry - I didn't hear clearly what the cry was, but I was absolutely sure that the cry was made by Hong Ling. So I immediately yelled and rushed into the rain. Once we got into the rain, the sound of the rain was even more alarming, but I still heard Hong Ling's cry again.It sounded like she was calling someone, but couldn't really hear it. I quickly shouted: "Hong Ling, Hong Ling!" The rain was heavy, I opened my mouth and shouted, and the rain poured into my mouth, choking me to cough again and again.I recognized the direction of Hong Ling's voice, and rushed forward in the splash of water, lest Hong Ling would suddenly disappear——Although I didn't know what happened at that time, subconsciously, I knew After searching for Hong Ling for a long time, I finally heard her voice, so I must not let it go easily. I ran about 100 meters and saw the chicken coop. In the heavy rain, the chicken coop seemed to appear in front of me suddenly. I also saw a figure flashing at the door of the chicken coop, and I yelled again , rushed to the door. Due to the heavy rain, the sky was dark, and the light inside the chicken coop was even weaker, so we couldn't see anything for a while.But hearing is not affected, I heard a burst of footsteps. I could even immediately recognize the footsteps of two people, and one of them was definitely Hong Ling. Although Hong Ling's figure is stout, her footsteps are extremely light, which is naturally a habit she has developed from living with apes since she was a child. I am very familiar with the sound of her footsteps, and I will never admit that I am wrong. But the footsteps of the other person are very strange. This person seems to be jumping forward. Every time he lands, he is very heavy, but when he bounces, he is very light. He can't figure out the way. At that time, I was not in a hurry to find out who was with Hong Ling, I called Hong Ling's name, I called very loudly, and there was an echo in the chicken coop, there was no reason why Hong Ling could not hear it, But she did not answer my call. At this time, I vaguely felt that I had experienced this kind of situation before, and I also felt that I should know what happened, but I just couldn't say it specifically-this kind of situation, almost everyone has encountered it before, it is a kind of vague , In a trance, there is a scene of deja vu, as if it happened before, but I can't remember it clearly. Of course, I knew afterwards that this was me entering the illusion, and it was just a situation where I entered the illusion and Hong Ling did not enter my illusion—Jin Wei had also seen Hong Ling in the illusion under this situation. In this case, Hong Ling couldn't feel Jin Wei's existence at all. But at that time, I just had a very vague feeling, and I didn't know what really happened, so I couldn't get any response from Hong Ling, which made me feel extremely strange, I continued to yell, and ran forward!
