I can't play this game

As people walk, the lamps move relatively backward, and new lamps will appear in the darkness ahead.

It's like walking on a huge treadmill, and everyone can't feel the change of distance at all.

Ji Han thought for a while and said:

"I suggest, before we go too far, go back, go back to the place where we started, and see what went wrong."

The four repaired a bit, and then began to walk back.

But the thing that worried Ji Han the most happened. After walking back for half an hour, he still didn't see the wall and the hole when he came down.

Ji Han took out the multifunctional compass, but the compass was fine.

They are indeed walking in one direction all the time. Even if magnets are buried underground to interfere with the compass, it is impossible to bury so many in such a large space.

Everyone became more and more flustered as they walked, and finally had to stop.

Chen Ke said in fear:

"Is this the way of ghosts? Why can't we finish the journey?"

Eggplant scolded:

"Even the place where he came in has disappeared. It's not a problem of the size of the tomb. The ugly King Zhao must have used the power of the divine pillar to create an incomprehensible space."

Song Qian looked at the indicator light of the divine pillar that was still on at her waist, and nodded.

After all, apart from Shenzhu, there is no other explanation for this weird situation that everyone is currently encountering.

Eggplant asked: "Ji Han, what do you think?"

The two previous puzzles were solved by Ji Han, so Eggplant also wanted to ask his opinion this time.

Ji Han stared at Song Qian's slender waist in a daze.

Eggplant scolded: "Fuck, Ji Han, when is this? You're still staring at his waist, playing hooligans and going out to play, now think of a way."

Song Qian was told by the eggplant, and she also found that Ji Han was staring at her.

But she knew that Ji Han was not this kind of person, so she bent down and asked:

"Brother Han, did you think of something?"

When Ji Han was called by eggplant and Song Qian asked, he was relieved.

Just now I looked at the divine column detector on Song Qian's waist, and I did have an idea, but then I saw the waist by the way, so I took a second look and lost my mind.

Turned around and replied:

"Song Qian, does the divine column detector on your waist stay on after you get off?"

Song Qian nodded and said, "That's right, it's always on, but it's just a green light, which means it's nearby, but not close."

Ji Han nodded and said:

"That's right, we've been spinning around in circles."

Chen Ke said with an "ah":

"No way, after walking so far, you are still spinning around in place?"

But then I understood what Brother Ji meant. If everyone was near the divine pillar when they really came down, how could they still be displayed near the divine pillar after walking so far?

Eggplant scolded: "Then the goddamn road is dead, we go forward and it goes back?"

Ji Han also couldn't figure it out, since he was always moving around the divine pillar, how could it feel like he was always walking in one direction?The same goes for the compass.

This is really incomprehensible, but one thing can be verified.

Thinking about it, Ji Han asked Chen Ke for a marker pen, then wrote a number "1" on the lamp on the left closest to him, and wrote a number "2" on the lamp in front of him.

Song Qian was a little confused and asked:

"Brother Ji, what are you?"

Ji Han replied:

"Although I don't know the principle of the mechanism here, one thing is very clear, that is, in that era, there must not be too many lamps. Please come with me, I guess it won't be long before you find something .”

This time everyone followed Ji Han and continued to walk forward, writing a number every time they came to a lamp.

Just after writing the No.30 two lamps.

The four were surprised to find that the number "1" was written on the lamp in front of them.

Song Qian was surprised: "Are we going in a cycle?"

The incredulous letter on Eggplant's face:

"It shouldn't be. We have been walking in a straight line without going in circles, and the compass has been pointing in one direction."

Instead, Ji Han breathed a sigh of relief, and replied:

"It is probably the power of the divine pillar that makes the space circulate, but no matter what method this old boy Zhao Wang uses, we still need to walk along the lamp, so the key to solving the problem is also simple."

Chen Ke continued: "As long as we don't follow the lamp, we can break this cycle!"

Ji Han nodded, this King Zhao probably deliberately made the air so turbid here, and then used these lamps to attract people to use them, and then fell into a certain cycle he arranged in advance.

It made a lot of sense, everyone got morale again after hearing this, and followed Ji Han to the left through the lamp and walked towards the darkness on the side.

Although the range of the flashlight is greatly reduced because of the paint and turbid air here, with the help of the compass, it is still possible to move forward slowly in the dark.

After walking for a while, I saw a bright area in front of me.

Everyone ran over in a hurry, but saw that there were also tree root lamps standing there.

And the number "1" is written on the side of the lamp.

Chapter 87 The Endless Road

Looking at the familiar numbers and lamps, the four of them froze in place.

This is really hard for everyone to understand. How could they walk back after leaving the lamp to go out?

No one spoke, but uneasiness had begun to spread.

Chen Ke murmured:

"This...how is this possible?"

Eggplant lit a flue:

"Grass, this is too evil, Ji Han, if it doesn't work, let's split up and try to walk in one direction."

Ji Han shook his head and said:

"It's useless, we will definitely meet, and it will be worse if we don't meet, it will be difficult to find this kind of place separately."

Annoyed, Eggplant took a deep puff of cigarette and asked:

"This incredible thing must be due to the influence of the divine pillar. Song Qian, is there any way to break the power of the divine pillar? Or a way to avoid its influence."

Song Qian also frowned and replied:

"The only way is to find the divine pillar and destroy it. You know, the divine pillar is the power of space, and we can't do anything about it."

Chen Ke became even more flustered when he heard this:

"This space is an infinite loop, King Zhao just wants to trap the people who come in here to death."

Thinking of the technical tools that Chen Ke took out before, Ji Han asked:

"Chen Ke, do you have any other detection tools?"

Chen Ke smiled wryly almost in despair:

"Brother Ji, my things are scientific, but I don't talk about science here."

If it is a tangible enemy, it is easy to say, because only the strong and the weak win or lose, but this invisible dilemma is the most troublesome.

Because you have absolutely no idea how to deal with it.

Seeing that everyone was uneasy, even a little desperate, Ji Han comforted himself instead:

"Okay, don't worry, sit down and rest, Chen Ke, and bring me another piece of beef jerky, I'm a little hungry."

Eggplant looked at Ji Han in disbelief and said:

"No, what time is this, and we still want to eat, we are trapped here to death!"

Ji Han replied confusedly:

"Yeah, yeah, I'm sleepy, so would you like to eat something too?"

It's like coaxing a child.

Eggplant laughed angrily at Ji Han, thinking that such heartless people are really rare.

However, Song Qian understood that brother Han, especially in this desperate situation, was the most able to deal with it calmly, and could also arouse the emotions of the people around him.

Let everyone feel that this is like a game, and ignore the inner fear and despair.

This is not something ordinary people can do. This is the indifference after experiencing countless despairs.

In fact, this is Ji Han's habit of thinking about problems.

When a problem is difficult to solve, I will let myself relax as much as possible to sort out the logic and thinking of the problem.

So at this time, he simply lay on the ground, eating beef jerky while thinking about the current predicament.

There are many situations in novels and movies where this kind of infinite loop cannot get out.

For example, in "The Matrix", the protagonist Neo is trapped in a subway station, and no matter which way he runs, he will return to the original place.

But that is a movie, and the people inside can modify the program of that world, creating paradoxes and bugs in the space.

The situation is the same now, if the divine pillar really modifies the space here, it is a bug.

Then I really have nothing to do, after all, I can't modify the rules.

However, what if it is not a divine pillar?

Thinking of Ji Han, he suddenly sat up and asked:

"I have a question, how do you judge that the appearance is affected by the divine pillar?"

The sudden question startled everyone.

Eggplant swallowed the beef jerky and replied:

"Isn't this obvious? What we encountered was a paradox of space. The Divine Pillar has the power to modify and create space, and Song Qian's indicator light also shows that the Divine Pillar is nearby."

After listening carefully, Ji Han replied:

"The indicator light can only indicate that the divine pillar is nearby, not that it is caused by the divine pillar."

Song Qian nodded, her divine pillar detector could only show whether she was nearby, but could not know whether the divine pillar was working.

Chen Ke also followed Ji Han's train of thought:

"Hey, there is indeed a problem. If King Zhao can use the power of the divine pillar, then it would be too good to use that thing to guard the tomb."

Eggplant didn't understand what Ji Han wanted to prove, and asked:

"Well, now we can't be sure if the divine pillar is working, but what's the matter? Can't get out or can't get out."

Ji Han smiled and said:

"Then this problem is different. If there is a divine pillar, this matter would be metaphysical. But if there is no influence of the power of the divine pillar, the predicament we are currently encountering can be summed up as follows: How does King Zhao deceive our five senses? Let us once Go back to the origin for the first time?"

Everyone gradually understood what Ji Han meant.

If the influence of the divine pillar is excluded, no one can create a space paradox, and it is even more impossible in the State of Zhao during the Warring States Period, then King Zhao must have adopted some means of deceiving us.

Ji Han took out a marker pen and continued:

“Now state the basis for our determination of the way forward.”

After understanding what Ji Han meant, Song Qian said, "Compasses and lamps."

Eggplant added: "There is also a feeling. If we go outside the lamp and come back, it means that the feeling is also affected."

Ji Han wrote it down.

Chen Ke understood and said: "Oh, oh, the next thing is to ensure that every feeling will not be deceived."
