Chapter 803 Time Loop
"You also said that this is a deep dream. Since it is in a dream, no matter how absurd things are, it is possible to happen." Master Wang pointed to the stairs next to him: "What will happen if I jump from here?"
"Death is impossible, but I'm afraid that you will be exiled to another place. The concepts of time and space in dreams are very vague, and I don't know much about this aspect." If Truman were here, he might be able to give Wang Give me an answer.
I shook my head. I still didn’t fully understand Master Wang’s words, but I caught a key word in his words—the phenomenon of pareidolia.
"Let's go ahead and take a look." Master Wang and I walked for about ten minutes when something vaguely appeared on the stairs in the distance.
I signaled Master Wang to be careful and approached alone.
After walking for more than ten meters, I glanced over and saw clearly that the shaking black figure was the evil ghost.
"We're back again. We're obviously going straight up."
"It seems to be as I guessed." Master Wang grinned. Since escaping from the Yin and Yang world and experiencing the training of the mountain god statue, his entire spirit has changed a lot, and he has become less sinister and calculating. He looks much kinder.
He touched the intact wall, and the parts I had damaged before had been restored to their original state: "The four stairs connected end to end form a strange circle that violates the rules of reality. Fortunately, you can bring a lot of messy things into the dream. If you change it, Personally, I don’t have anything on my body that can serve as a mark, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to find it until I die.”
"What did you find?" I leaned against the wall and listened to Master Wang's analysis.
"Penrose's Ladder is a special structure formed by projecting the three-dimensional world onto the two-dimensional world. It does not exist in itself. It is also impossible for this world to have four upward staircases connected end to end. One of them must be a downward staircase. , but it was cleverly hidden. We only need to find that staircase to walk out." Master Wang closed his eyes: "Don't believe your eyes, just follow your feelings."
I stopped Master Wang and grabbed his arm: "You should just follow me honestly. I almost understand what you mean."
Concentrating my breath and shielding my five senses, I only let out my will and paid attention to every subtle change.
Supporting Master Wang, I climbed up the stairs.
It felt like seven or eight hours had passed. When I took a certain step upward, I suddenly felt like I was falling.
Because people will become numb after mechanically repeating a certain action, so the feeling at that moment is easily ignored.
"Found it." I opened my eyes and looked at the unstepped steps. It was so ordinary, no different from other steps.
I placed the palm pattern on the steps and pushed it with all my strength. The steps on the ground did not change at all, but the stairs directly above my head rippled like water waves.
"The blue ripples are the Dream Dao Talisman at work."
"Don't waste your energy, the exit is right above your head." Master Wang raised his head and sighed: "The person who designed this endless staircase is really a genius. He folded the exit section of stairs. We have actually been walking on the back of the stairs. No wonder everything is... Can’t find it.”
"That man is indeed a genius." I didn't want to waste any more time, so I put away the dirty ghosts and lustful ghosts, grabbed Master Wang's shoulders, and jumped high towards the place where the stairs were pointed!
Seeing the stone stairs above my head getting closer and closer, I didn't even blink.
When I touched the back of the stone staircase above my head, blue ripples exploded like water balloons. It felt like a person who was standing upside down suddenly fell down and the world was spinning.
When my sight returned, I realized that I was standing at the corner of the first and second floors of this building, and my steps had not yet fallen.
"Finally escaped." After wandering around the endless stairs for seven or eight hours, Master Wang also felt a little tired.
"Don't relax, this place is full of dangers. You might step into a trap again at some point." I reached out and groped on the stairs, and soon found what I was looking for. There was a special sticker posted on the corner of the corridor. The processed talisman has a light blue background and is only the size of a fingernail.
"It seems that the black-robed anchor has predicted that I will secretly fall asleep. This thing has been deliberately left by him to deal with me." The talisman as big as a fingernail is densely engraved with runes. I will not despise it just because it is small. In order to plot against the Ghost Mother, Xu Yan hid the Daoyang Talisman in Zhu Guo, which was also only the size of a fingernail, but that Talisman could even harm the Ghost Mother, and later completely changed Master Wang's physique.
"The endless corridor can only be used to trap enemies. Even if I don't give you a hint, you can get out if you spend more time." Master Wang followed me and walked to the window curiously, staring at the city outside. : "I'm afraid even God has never seen the scenery here."
The first time I entered a deep dream, I had a similar experience. I ignored Master Wang. I thought for a moment and put the dream talisman the size of a fingernail in my pocket: "The appearance of this talisman at least means that I didn't find it." Wrong direction, the black-robed anchor has also been here before."
This small piece of Dream Dao Talisman, if used properly, might have miraculous effects.
"Let's go, let's see again on the top of the building." After what happened just now, I became more careful, and I scanned every place with my will before I dared to go upstairs.
The internal structure of the black and red building is not complicated. Besides, I came here just to stand on the highest point and look further afield to determine my position, so I did not open the closed door casually.
I wanted to get the remaining fragments of the Mirror of Reincarnation from the butcher, and I was in a hurry all the way, for fear of missing something.
Master Wang is in a different state from me. He is just like traveling. While sightseeing, he also sighs: "The world of dreams does exist, and there are still loopholes in the eleven-dimensional universe theory of modern society! This should be the place where the fourth dimension sleeps. I knew it!"
I didn’t pay attention to Master Wang. In fact, I couldn’t understand what he was saying at all, and I couldn’t show my ignorance, so I could only change the topic: “When I summoned the dirty ghosts and lust ghosts, they all It seems that you are afraid of something and feel uneasy, but your behavior is different from theirs."
"Fear? I don't feel threatened. Maybe it's because I have already put life and death aside, and it doesn't matter if I look at it." Master Wang thought for a while and then added: "It probably has something to do with my special physique. I am now I don’t know if it counts as alive. I feel like I haven’t become a human yet, but I am different from ordinary ghosts. Maybe it’s because of the existence of thought and wisdom. You also know that I retain the memories of my life, and this dream is the end of my memory. Home, so I don’t have any discomfort here, but those ghosts are different. For them, this is like a completely different dimension. Have you heard of the superstring theorem? The ghosts themselves should be between two dimensions. The existence between..."
I waved my hand and went all the way up to the top of the building. I stood at the window and looked out. I couldn't see the edge of this bizarre city at a glance.
"It's so spectacular!"
"Don't just sigh. I'm afraid our situation is not very optimistic." I have discerning eyes, and the visual distance has almost reached a terrifying level that ordinary people can't imagine. But even so, I still haven't found any useful clues, let alone looked at it. Visit iconic areas like the Lighthouse of Time, the Streets of Despair, and the former site of Lightless Road.
"It's completely different from the last time I entered the deep dreamland." Without direction, I looked a little ugly. If I continued like this, I could only search blindly. If I wanted to meet the black-robed anchor, I would undoubtedly be looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Have you been to this place before? You are really not simple, you can't see through it." Master Wang also stood by the window: "Don't be discouraged, there will always be a way."
"Don't be discouraged. The flow of time in deep dreams is extremely slow. Even if you search here for several months, I'm afraid only one night has passed outside. At worst, if you search slowly, you can always catch his fox tail." I said firmly. Looking at the city, he was about to look away when he suddenly noticed something strange in the northerly direction.
The sky in the deep dreamland is filled with gorgeous halos. Only a small patch of sky in the northwest has nothing. It is like a funnel. The halo is absorbed without getting closer.
