Chapter 863 Du Lai’s Dream
"I tried many methods...I deliberately interrupted the teacher in class, tore up homework books and papers, threw away my classmates' schoolbags, and even ran to the school gate to make a fuss with the security guards just to get them to chase me away. I can leave the school, or ask my parents, whatever I want, I just want to see if I can leave the school——"
Chen Hui bit her lip, lowered her head, and her voice became more and more dull: "But no... I was just taken to the dean's office and received a scolding. When the bell rang for the fourth period, I returned to the classroom. Sitting in my seat, my deskmate pushed my arm and asked me how dare I sleep in the class teacher's class... Everything was back to square one."
Bai Youwei listened and thought about it. Chen Hui's description was like a strict and seamless story line, connecting back and forth to form a closed circle.
If people in the circle want to come out, they must break the cycle, just like Chen Hui did, tear up the paper, argue with the security guard, in short, do something to prevent the story line from continuing as it was.
Bai Youwei asked: "How did you come out of the maze in the end?"
Chen Hui closed her eyes and replied: "I jumped from the roof of the school..."
Bai Youwei was slightly shocked.
Before she could ask anything, Du Lai's voice came from behind -
"me too."
She turned around and saw Du Lai leaning at the door, a large hospital gown hanging on his thin body, empty and without his usual vigor and shrewdness.
"My dream was on a luxury cruise ship." Du said, "I was the magician on the ship and performed two magic performances every morning and evening. It was a relatively peaceful period in my life. I had no magic show for three years. Having been on a ship, I am very familiar with everything on the ship. Probably because of this, the scene of the dream that Maze No. 1 created for me was that ship."
Bai Youwei asked: "After you went in, how long did you start to suspect that you were dreaming?"
"I started to be suspicious when I first entered." Du Lai explained calmly, "The actors on the ship sometimes take that... psychedelic drug. If the dose is appropriate, it is legal abroad. I was completely groggy at the time. My colleagues at the show asked me if I had smoked too much, but I knew that everything in front of me was fake because there was no Miao Xue."
Bai Youwei looked at him, "Even if you know it's a lie, self-commitment still requires courage and courage. After all, you didn't know at the time whether you would die outside after you died."
Everyone has the instinct to survive. How can we seek death unless we are desperate?
"That's why I was trapped in there for so many days..." Du sighed with a self-deprecating smile, and then said, "I tried almost all the ways I could think of, but it didn't work. No matter what I did, it didn't work... I still I deliberately caused a fire and tried to burn the ship, but I was discovered. They tied me up and used a knife to attack me. One knife stabbed me in the heart, but I did not die... When I opened my eyes, I returned to the staff lounge, and my colleagues Ask me if I smoked too much, but I talk in my sleep."
Bai Youwei was a little surprised: "Have you ever died in a dream?"
Du Lai nodded, "I have died several times. The boss who can run this kind of business has dirty hands. There are thugs on the ship who specialize in dealing with disobedient employees like me."
Bai Youwei thought for a while, "Then can it be understood this way - only when the player seeks relief, can he come out of the dream. If the player is killed by someone in the dream, it will have no effect, and the dream will still return to the original point. "
"If you only consider the situation of Chen Hui and me, it is indeed true." Du Lai said to Bai Youwei, "After understanding this, there is no danger in Maze No. 1. All you need to do is go in and tell Fu Miaoxue the situation, and then start from there. Jumping from a high place can escape the dream.”
