I'm trapped in a cube

Chapter 568: Labyrinth Cage

"It's true that nothing has changed. We have gone deeper." Li Luo looked at the electronic screen in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

"The distance between high walls is also getting wider." Xi looked at the nearby high walls and added.

The passages between the high walls are now wide enough for several cars to pass through at the same time. Not only that, but there are also fewer and fewer corners and gaps. Here, the complexity of the maze seems to be decreasing.

The rabbit held by Li Luo was still sprinting wildly, and she had a premonition that they would soon reach the center of the maze.

But at this moment, his big eyes pressed against Gong Xi's thigh, pushing him towards a fork in the road, while he kept humming.

Xi was stunned for a while and began to listen carefully to Big Eye's cry. Soon, he understood what Big Eye meant.

"That fork in the road, does it smell like Poke?"

"Woo, woo~"

"And the smell of herbs?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

It seemed that Big Eye had noticed something, so Xi directly told Li Luo what he had discovered. After discussing it, the two decided to take a walk on the side road first.

"Anyway, as long as the rabbit is still there, we can get back on the road at any time and let's go."

So, the two of them walked towards the fork in the road.

Not long after walking, I found a pile of scattered herbs in front of a gap in the high wall.

Although this maze is messy, the ground has always been clean. This is the first time they have seen something on the ground.

Big Eyes excitedly rushed forward and circled around the herbs. Xi immediately followed, squatting down and examining the pile of unexpected herbs, but the more he looked, the more worried he became.

"What kind of herb is this?" Li Luo asked curiously.

"A kind of hallucinogenic plant, which is dried and ignited, will emit smoke that makes creatures fall into illusions." Xi explained.

"Psychedelic plants?" Li Luo was a little surprised: "Why is there such a thing here?"

"I don't know." Xi picked up a herb with her fingers and rubbed it a few times. A trace of fire ignited on the herb, and then a wisp of white smoke floated out from the herb.

"We used to use this herbal medicine to understand the cause of the disease, because after the patient inhales the smoke, he will start to have hallucinations, and the hallucinations of the patient will be displayed on the smoke, and we can peek into the patient's memory and understand the disease they suffer from. The reason, but..."

Xi changed the subject: "This kind of hallucinogenic herb is not the only one that has this effect. Most races use them for interrogation."

"Interrogation?" Li Luo was stunned, but she quickly understood this usage.

"Yes, because you can peek into the memory." Xi explained: "When you fall into a hallucination, those memory fragments in the subconscious will be revealed. The more you want to hide the memory, the easier it will be exposed. The interrogator can use this to To break through the psychic defense."

"Aren't the hallucinations random? What if they are all useless memories?" Li Luo asked.

"No...if you are a patient and someone comes to treat you when you are sick, what will you think of? It must be about the disease, the cause, the symptoms, the environment...you cannot control your thoughts. , once you think about it, it will trigger hallucinations, and these hallucinations will be displayed on the smoke.”

"Similarly, if you are the interrogator, you will deliberately want to hide the secret, which will make you involuntarily recall the memory of the secret, and your thoughts will rush out like a dam bursting, appearing in the smoke Above, all the secrets will be revealed.”

"When you are seriously ill, you only think about the disease. When you are interrogated, you think about secrets. When you eat, you don't think about climbing a ladder. When you climb a mountain, you don't think about raising a pet. Hallucinations are based on thoughts. Of course. It won’t matter.”

After hearing Xi's explanation, Li Luo nodded.

"Since those black ball giants are catching other creatures, it is very likely that these herbs are used for 'interrogation'. What secrets do they want to know?" Li Luo pondered.

"Or is it that these herbs were just left by the previous healers, and she just overthought them?"

While Li Luo was thinking, Xi also extinguished the burning herbs in his hands and stood up.

At this time, Big Eyes was pushing his head against him again, trying to get him to continue walking into the gap.

"Keep walking." Xi did not hesitate and walked directly around the herb pile and towards the gap. Li Luo stopped thinking and quickly followed.

After bypassing a high wall blocking the road, the two came to an open area, which was surrounded by a circle of high walls. If Big Eyes hadn't led the way, normally they would never have found this place.

The ground here was covered with the hallucinogenic herbs they had discovered before, but neither Li Luo nor Xi's eyes were on the herbs. They both looked at the center of this area.

I saw more than a dozen half-buried doctors, motionless on the ground covered with hallucinogenic herbs.

Their chests were all buried under the ground, and their arms were also wrapped in the ground. Only half of their bodies were left exposed, and synchronized light groups flickered dimly, like candles that were about to be extinguished.

What's even more frightening is that the chains composed of those black balls penetrated the chests of these doctors, stringing them together tightly...

Seeing this scene, Xi trembled uncontrollably.

Immediately afterwards, Xi looked at one of the doctors and exclaimed:

"Pork?!"

After being stunned for a while, Xi rushed over and came to Poke.

He stretched out his arm tremblingly and placed it on Poke's shoulder, but his companion remained motionless, as if he had fallen asleep.

At the same time, Big Eyes also rushed to Poke's side and circled around him, but Poke still had no reaction and remained motionless.

The light ball on Poke's head flickered for a moment, then disappeared in a flash and became dim again. Xi didn't know whether it was Poke's response.

The surrounding black chains penetrated deep into the high wall, and it was unknown where they were connected. The thick chains formed a sharp contrast with the skinny bodies of the doctors. The wounds on their chests continued to ooze dark red blood, and even left black and red marks on the chains.

I don't know if the wound has been infected. There is a circle of yellow-white pus on the edge, which makes the wound look even more shocking.

However, even so, these doctors still did not die. Their healing power seemed to be still struggling to support them and maintain their last vitality.

The hallucinogenic herbs on the ground were stained with stains. These herbs should have not been used for a long time. The original herbal fragrance has disappeared, and a rotten stench is emitted.

Xi looked at these dying companions and clenched his fists.

"Li Luo, I'm going to take a look in their healing space. Please help me be on guard."

"Understood, be careful." Li Luo responded. She looked at these chained healers and had a bad premonition in her heart.

These healers, like when she first saw Xi, were in a state of "sleeping". Xi was trapped in the healing space before, so these healers might be the same reason.

"The body is trapped, and the consciousness is also trapped?"

Li Luo thought more and more wrong, this seemed to be a cage for healers.

She wanted to remind Xi, but found that Xi had become a dazed state.

"It seems that he has already entered..."
