infinite maze

The setting sun in the sky completely sank into the sea, and the setting sun reflected in Cangxiong was also dimmed. Most passers chose to stay in the room and wait for the sunset, even the newcomers felt the pressure.

While everyone was waiting nervously, the sky gradually darkened, but in the end it was not completely dark. In the opposite direction from the direction they were looking at, a ray of sky appeared on the sea level in the east, and the clouds in the east were gradually stained with a layer of golden light. Immediately afterwards, before everyone noticed, the edge of the red sun had jumped onto the sea level.

The darkening world is like being lit a candle again. The candle light gradually becomes stronger and fills the whole world again. This strange change finally attracted the attention of everyone, and they rushed to another direction. Watching the sunrise in the east.

"I'm not hallucinating, is the sun rising?"

"The time on the watch has really passed overnight, but I am standing by the window watching the sunset!"

"What's the matter? What about at night?"

"The promised night is coming, and the danger is approaching? Those old people will not lie, but this situation is also very strange."

All kinds of speculations and doubts sounded, obviously no one could understand what just happened, the cruise ship was still running normally, and even the clock chiming at six o'clock punctually sounded, heralding the arrival of a new day, but all passers-by knew, This new day came very strangely, because 1 minute ago, they had just listened to the time report at six o'clock in the evening.

However, except for the passers-by, the other people on the cruise ship seemed to be unaware. They seemed to have really spent the night, and they were working energetically and with a good attitude.

At seven o'clock, the restaurant opened to the public on time, and the passers-by came to eat one after another, but compared with yesterday, they seemed not in a good spirit today.

"Fuck! What the hell! It's steak again, so why don't you order anything else?" A grumpy man exploded when he saw the breakfast, "Where the hell is this? Don't let me catch the troublemaker !"

This outbreak was like a signal, which ignited the emotions of the people around them, and they began to discuss eagerly. The old people were worried, and the newcomers were novelty.

At the dining table, the four of Mei Ziyi were also sitting together. Strange to say, they had just had dinner before sunset yesterday, and now they are eating breakfast again, and they don't feel full at all, but rather hungry.

"Why is there no black sky?" Yu Lihai casually sliced ​​the steak, his face full of doubts, "There is a balance mechanism in the maze, black and white coexist, there must be a dark day when there is a day."

Feng Tianqing ate in silence, turning a blind eye to Yu Lihai who was in distress, with no expression on her face, as if she was not affected at all.

"It disappeared, and it has nothing to do with me. In the system prompt, it can't be Heitian." No one spoke, and Yu Lihai was chattering and talking to himself.

Of course, there were quite a few people in the restaurant who were in a dilemma like Yu Lihai, but no one could give an answer.

In desperation, everyone could only continue to explore the cruise ship after breakfast, hoping to find something.

But it was very strange. The passers checked the cruise ship up and down and found nothing abnormal. Of course, they didn’t find any safety doors or clues. Here, the passers-by seemed to really just come to take part in a sea trip, enjoy eating, drinking and having fun , don't worry about the rest.

On the second day, everyone was still actively looking for clues. On the third day, there were far fewer people looking for clues. On the fourth day, some people had already forgotten the destination of the trip and indulged in this luxurious sea life...

Those who have cleared the maze are better off. They have a deep understanding of the dangers of the maze. Newcomers who enter the maze for the first time do not have so many scruples. They are more willing to believe that this is a beautiful dream. They have had enough of being aloof, and after realizing that there is no danger, they naturally put pleasure first.

On the morning of the fifth day, the restaurant was a bustling scene. Under the protests of many people, the food in the restaurant quickly increased, and even the tableware began to diversify.

Five days is enough for them to understand the cruise ship and their identity in this maze.This is an era when technology is not yet developed. There are no mobile phones, and even the movies that are put on are black and white. The information circulation here still relies on old newspapers. Of course, the cruise ship has not docked for five days, and the newspapers on board are all old newspapers. .

However, this is also an era of extreme luxury. This cruise ship named Yuanyue Pearl is second to none in terms of passenger capacity, luxury, and technological content. The people who can board this ship are either wealthy or expensive.

Especially after knowing that passengers have paid a huge amount of money before boarding the ship, and everything is free after boarding, newcomers quickly indulge in this kind of life, and they can no longer be satisfied with silver tableware, gold, and ivory texture Cutlery began to appear on the dining table.

All kinds of delicacies compete with each other, and the restaurant is putting on a top food feast every day.Some people wear expensive and soft furs, some people wear dazzling jewelry, some people have strange pets...

"Hey, what's going on here? I wonder if I'll gain three catties if I go on like this." Yu Lihai poked the steak in front of him, feeling nauseous for a while, but seeing the other three eating naturally, he could only bite the bullet and eat go down.In fact, he also wanted to try the various new delicacies in the restaurant, but under the unshakable steak set menu of the three icebergs, he had to hold back by accident, so he has been eating steak for the past five days.

After five days, Yu Lihai also had some understanding of his roommates. Feng Tianqing was the least talkative, haunted and haunted every day, and liked to be alone, but never missed their three-meal gathering. Yun Cishu looked approachable, but his words were tight On the contrary, it was Mei Ziyi, who seemed indifferent, but answered every question, and even occasionally comforted his nervous nerves.

"Ziyi, do you have any idea? I think I will be assimilated by these luxuries and corrupted by money if this continues." Yu Lihai bit the flesh in his mouth fiercely, as if this would make him feel better.

"It's impossible for us to enjoy the maze. I feel very uneasy." Mei Ziyi looked at the scene of luxury and money in the restaurant. Not only the newcomers, but also many passers cleared the level with the attitude of enjoying as much as they can, and then Click a little bit, and become one of the enjoyers ignorantly.

"Of course I know something is wrong with the maze, but it's been five days, no night, no clues, no doors, nothing..." Yu Lihai scratched his head, "This is definitely the strangest maze I've ever experienced. We haven’t seen any shadows, we don’t really have to wait for the voyage to end, I remember the manager on the ship said that the voyage will last for six months!”

"There is no abnormality on the boat. I checked it, even underwater." Yun Cishu said, saying that he found no abnormality.

"Maybe it's because the time hasn't come yet." Feng Tianqing, who didn't speak easily, said.

The other three looked over, quietly waiting for an explanation.

Feng Tianqing was silent for two seconds before speaking, "Wait until you get back to the dormitory, let's eat first."

The four lowered their heads tacitly, looked at the steak on the plate, and were extremely silent for a while.

After breakfast, the four of them left the restaurant. Along the way, they met many passers-by in luxurious clothes. They were smoking expensive cigars, and they were discussing whether to go to the top floor to bask in the sun, or to take part in a game of gambling, or to have a wonderful game. encounter.

After returning to the dormitory and closing the door, the hustle and bustle outside faded away a lot.

Yu Lihai sat on the sofa in the living room, "The scene outside, what a maze of customs clearance, they have long been reluctant to leave."

"The vast majority of people are still rational, so don't worry too much." Mei Ziyi comforted, but quickly changed the topic, "But if it continues, there will be fewer people who can remain rational."

"Yes." Feng Tianqing agreed.

"What do you mean by saying that the time has not come yet?" Yu Lihai turned his head and asked with interest.

"I also checked the cruise ship, and found nothing, which means that in the daytime state, there are no clues or doors to clear the customs, but there is no night here, either we haven't found the conditions to trigger the night, or there is not enough time , the voyage will last for six months, it's only been five days, and it's still far away from the end, and these seem to be the foreshadowing of the maze, in order to make the passers lose their vigilance, and gradually indulge in such a life, but I can't guess Such a meaning." This is probably the most words Feng Tianqing has said since entering the maze.

Yu Lihai was not in the mood to tease, because he was also confused, what good would it do for the maze to let passers-by indulge in pleasure? "If there is no danger in the next six months, how many people can remain vigilant?" Six months, that is, half a year!But it only takes 21 days for a person to develop a habit. Slowly, a chill climbed up Yu Caspian's back.

"What's worse, this is not the real world. People's moral bottom line and self-control will be lowered. If there is no crisis, what will happen to the cruise ship in six months is completely unpredictable." Yun Cishu's finger Subconsciously knocked on the sofa.

Mei Ziyi noticed this movement, and curled his mouth. He knew that this was a subconscious movement of Yuncishu when he was thinking, "There is no need to worry about food and clothing here, and unlimited enjoyment, but what's interesting is that the theme of this maze is Hunger City."

The four fell silent, and Mei Ziyi smiled, "Anyway, this kind of trip is likely to last for six months. This maze is not only the maze with the most passers-by, but also the maze with the longest time. In the next six months, we need to supervise each other, and it is best to drive other people to self-discipline, prepare for the worst, and remain vigilant."

Feng Tianqing nodded, "That's exactly what I want to say. The number of passers-by in this maze is abnormal, and it's really hard for a person to maintain a high degree of self-discipline. It's only the fifth day now. It's really not easy to persist for half a year. .”
