Chapter 97 Morning
The second day of the maze——
In the morning, everyone packed up their things and set out to explore the maze.
As usual, Bai Youwei took a pen and paper, walked and counted.
Tu Dan still used the pushing method, but improved on the original basis. Bai Youwei didn't know how to change it, and didn't care. The two groups separated in opposite directions and quickly entered the depths of the maze.
Bai Youwei and Shen Mo are traveling lightly. Because of their way of walking, no matter how far they go, they will go around to the starting point to rest at the end, so they don't need to carry too much luggage, so Zhang Tianyang thinks it is the most time-wasting way of walking.
On Tu Dan's side, there are big bags and small bags, including all the tent boilers. Because the characteristic of the push-style walking method is that people cannot go back and must stay in the same position as Xiaoqi.
On the way, Tan laughed and asked, "There are so many of them, will they find the exit before us?"
"If you find it first, you will find it first." Bai Youwei said disapprovingly, "It will save us trouble."
After thinking about it with a smile, I think what Bai Youwei said is right!
So the mind is more relaxed along the way.
Bai Youwei asked them again: "Yesterday I asked you to find time to look in the mirror, did you all look at it?"
"Look." Tanxiao said as he walked, "I didn't find anything unusual, it's just a doll that looks the same as me."
Bai Youwei turned to look at Cheng Weicai: "Where is Teacher Cheng?"
"Mine..." Teacher Cheng thought about it for a moment, and said slowly, "It's a bit strange, my doll seems to be very old..."
"..."
Everyone looked at him.
Teacher Cheng: "Oh, what do you see me doing, I mean, I'm older than I am now, maybe... maybe eighty or ninety years old."
"Really?" Tanxiao asked curiously, "Can the dolls in the photos be different?"
Just in front of the passage is a mirror, Bai Youwei said: "Take a look, don't get too close."
Tan Xiao and Cheng Wei stopped at a distance of ten steps from the mirror, and two dolls appeared in the mirror: Tan Xiao's doll was almost the same as himself, but Teacher Cheng's was at least twenty or thirty years older!
His face is full of wrinkles and age spots, his hair is all white, his teeth are sparse and almost lost, even his height seems to have shrunk, his back is hunched, and he is half a head shorter than the current Teacher Cheng.
Teacher Cheng couldn't bear to look more, so he sighed and looked away.
Tan Xiao was so surprised, he looked left and right and kept looking, "What's the principle? A distorting mirror or something?... How can it make people look so old? Why haven't I changed? Why? Why?"
On and on.
Bai Youwei turned her head and looked at Shen Mo who was pushing the wheelchair behind her: "Do you want to take a photo too?"
Shen Mo was silent, and said after a while: "I am the same as Tanxiao, nothing has changed."
Having said that, he went to the mirror—
His puppet appeared in the mirror.
I have to say that God treats him preferentially. The person is handsome, and the doll also looks extraordinarily delicate. Standing there with tall legs and long legs, like a model in a display window, it is admirable and enviable, but at the same time it is far away and untouchable.
Shen Mo said there was no change, but Bai Youwei felt that there was.
It's just that this change is very subtle, hidden in every detail, the curvature of his mouth, the wrinkles between his brows, and the indifference in his eyes...
Shen Mo gave people the impression that he was always indifferent.
This kind of indifference is reflected in his expressionless face all year round.
It's not that he has no emotions, but that he is good at restraining himself and is more rational and calm than ordinary people. The smile is faint, no matter how big the anger is, it will suppress the fire.
But his puppet gives people a sense of cold indifference.
As if heartless, indifferent to everything.
