infinite maze

The sudden voice sounded directly from her mind, and Meizi looked around calmly but found nothing. The surrounding was too silent, like a completely isolated space.However, the blue sky above my head can relieve the pressure a little, although it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening when I went to bed.

After the voice in my head disappeared, it seemed that some barriers around me disappeared, and shouts began to sound.

"Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"

"Someone! Someone! Who are you? Where are you? Where is this?"

"What maze, what the hell kind of place is this?"

"I want to go home! I want to go home!"

"Ah! Where is this! Where is this! Why am I here?"

"..."

From the sound of the first shout, there were responses from different positions one after another. The voices were far and near, male and female. Judging by the tone, there were at least four people who spoke.The situation was so weird that they kept talking even though they were struggling to speak, as if they could gain some comfort in this way.

Mei Ziyi didn't respond aloud, he couldn't be sure about the current situation, so naturally he didn't want to expose it easily.Instead, try to extract the information from the voice in your head just now: welcome to the maze world, please familiarize yourself with the basic maze as soon as possible, and try to escape from the maze.

The maze world, the basic maze, and the escape maze represent the current situation, the category of the situation and the ultimate goal respectively.

This sentence is very concise and somewhat stereotyped, it seems that the "person" or "thing" who speaks doesn't pay much attention to outsiders like them, or they are not the only ones who have experienced this.This is like an audition, and the interviewers don't care too much about those who are participating for the first time.

At the moment when Mei Ziyi was thinking, those people in the huge maze who shouted to each other had reached a consensus, wanted to find a direction to move forward together, and then gathered together, but there were disputes over the direction to move forward, and opinions had diverged.

During the quarrel, a striking red beam of light suddenly appeared from an unknown direction, like a beacon in a complex maze, the red beam of light pierced straight into the sky, and the upper end could not be seen.

The maze fell silent, and the debate faded away. It was obvious that there was nothing more suitable as a gathering target than that red beam of light.Of course, worries and concerns also exist, such as where the beam of light came from, whether it is in a safe location, whether it will disappear suddenly, etc...

But there is no better solution at present. After a moment of debate, everyone decided to move towards the beam of light.

Mei Ziyi was also preparing to walk towards the beam of light, not because of the fear of acting alone, but because she wanted to obtain more information.Whether the beam of light came from the maze or from others, it was a way of transmitting information.What's more, the voice specifically reminded me to get familiar with the basic maze, instead of directly escaping from the maze, there must be another deep meaning.

Although there is a beacon, it is not easy to actually act, because the path of the maze is intricate, and the straight-line distance you see may be several times to reach it, and you may even be only a few steps away from the beacon, but separated by towering both ends of the wall.

Mei Ziyi also began to walk through the maze. She had nothing in her hand, so she naturally had no way to mark it. She chose the rightmost passage and walked in. After entering it, she realized that the grand maze was more complicated than imagined, and the width of the maze paths was not uniform. , the roads have straight lines and curves, but without exception, they are all separated by towering straight stone walls that cannot be overcome.

For Mei Ziyi, this is a brand new experience. Being in the huge maze, the whole person will feel like a dream but not a dream. Looking directly at the line of sight, she can hardly see anything other than the walls. Miraculously, there is plenty of light in the maze, but there is no shadow, which prevents the possibility of using the sun to judge the time and orientation.

The palm is attached to the stone wall, and the cool feeling is so real. Along the way, there is no gap between the rocks, which is definitely not created by man.

Suddenly, Mei Ziyi’s footsteps stopped, and a stone gate appeared on his right. The color and material of the stone gate are the same as the stone wall, but there are obvious traces of the connection with the stone wall. It may not be obvious in the dark, but it can still be clearly identified in the daytime. .

Mei Ziyi leaned over, hesitated for a moment, put her ear on it and listened carefully.Fortunately, the labyrinth was very quiet at this time, and even the few people who communicated before had reduced the frequency of communication. In the silence, the voice behind the stone gate stood out.

It was a very strange sound. It was not a voice, but rather like the sound of something sharp scratching the wall. The sound was very weak, without metallic sounds, and the position was not fixed, and there was no fixed frequency.

Straightening up, Mei Ziyi hesitated for a moment but did not push the door, but planned to continue exploring this huge maze.

Continue along the path, and there are two forks again. Choose the one on the right as usual, but this time you don’t see the door until you go to the end. After returning to the original path, continue to explore the next path.

After completely losing the concept of time, Mei Ziyi didn't know how long she had been in the maze. She only felt that the soles of her feet were very uncomfortable. When the light was getting dark and Mei Ziyi was going to rest, she finally found another stone door.

The stone door seemed to be cut and then re-inserted into the stone wall. Mei Ziyi stuck it up again to listen to the movement inside, but this time there was no sound, and the inside was very quiet.

Mei Ziyi held her breath, tried two more times, and finally confirmed that there was indeed no sound from inside the door.

Looking at the gradually darkening labyrinth, Mei Ziyi did not hesitate, but pushed hard, and the stone door opened on one side, revealing a gentle light.Mei Ziyi raised her eyebrows in surprise, because he clearly saw that the inside was a comfortable bedroom, and the light source came from the ceiling lamp. Compared with the cold and empty huge maze outside, this small space is like a paradise.

Feeling no danger, Mei Ziyi walked in, and the stone door behind her slowly closed. After the stone door was closed, Mei Ziyi tried to push the door again, and found that the stone door was easily opened again.

There is no problem in getting in and out. Mei Ziyi turned to observe the bedroom. Due to the limited space, the bedroom is not big, and the decoration style is very simple. Except that there is no window, it is no different from most modern bedrooms. There is a low cabinet beside the bed, on which there is a bag of bread and A bottle of water and a pair of slippers by the bed.Mei Ziyi felt for a moment that those slippers were the cutest slippers he had ever seen.

Night fell quickly, and exhaustion swarmed over. After confirming that there was no danger, Mei Ziyi had dinner and then lay on the bed to replenish her strength.Maybe it was because of being too exhausted, but Mei Ziyi slept very soundly that night, until a shrill and frightening scream woke him up from his sleep.

The sound was just outside the wall, apart from screams, panicked footsteps, and a strange thumping sound, it seemed that something was hitting the ground regularly and moving forward quickly.

When the man's flustered footsteps happened to pass by the stone gate, Mei Ziyi pushed the stone gate open. The man seemed to be startled by the incident around him, and reflexively took a step back.But after seeing the situation clearly, an astonishing hope burst out in his eyes, and there was no need for Mei Ziyi to speak, she had already plunged in.

Behind him, Mei Ziyi also saw the source of the thud, and her eyes froze.It was a tall zombie, wearing clothes from an unknown dynasty, with a pale complexion, red eyes, sharp white teeth, and blue-black nails that seemed to have not been cut for a year...

Shimen bang!It was closed again with a bang, and it was not Mei Ziyi who closed the door, but the person who rushed in just now, panting heavily, not paying attention to Mei Ziyi at all, but listening carefully to the movement outside.

The zombies outside the door quickly arrived at the stone gate, don't ask why they knew it, because the heavy thumping sound just disappeared at the stone gate.

The moment the zombie's jumping sound disappeared, the person who was panting violently before seemed like a duck whose neck was stuck, and his breathing became cautious in an instant, and he froze in place like a stone. The whole person stuck to the stone door and remained motionless. up.

But immediately after, his whole body bounced up as if his hair was exploding, because there was a slight scratching sound outside the stone gate, this sound was slightly familiar, it was the sound that Mei Ziyi heard when she found the first stone gate during the day .

The zombie's long nails scraped across the stone door, as if looking for a way to open the stone door, but soon it gave up this seemingly gentle way, and slammed into the door instead.But for Mei Ziyi, the stone gate, which was easy to push open, remained motionless, allowing the zombies to charge.

After several times, the zombie finally gave up the act of knocking on the door, and the unwilling jumping sound lingered outside the door for a while, and finally faded away.Inside the stone gate, the person who rushed in finally breathed a sigh of relief, and spread it directly on the carpet. Mei Ziyi didn't rush, and looked at it while waiting.

It was a man in his 20s who rushed in, wearing formal clothes, but at this time he was already in a mess, his face was washed with sweat, not to mention his clothes.

"Thank you, my name is Wen Shu." After waiting for a while, the man finally got out of the fear just now, stood up from the ground and thanked Mei Ziyi, but his eyes still subconsciously looked at Shimen, for fear that the zombies would break through the door. enter.
