Chapter 144 Fifty-nine. Handover of the wooden house
woo——
A shrill whistling sound echoed around the wooden house.
The wind squeezed into the wooden house through the window, and the fire swayed slightly.
The wooden house was trembling under the violent hurricane, and it seemed that it might be swept up into the sky by the hurricane at any time.
Naturally, this trip to the swamp will not bring books, and Anna suddenly becomes idle. Occasionally add a piece of firewood to the fire, and then hold her chin to observe Lu Li, which is her only pleasure at the moment.
After returning to the wooden house, Lu Li showed a different...
He was still sitting in front of the fire, but the face looked around, as if watching something or following something moving. It was clear that there was nothing there, just an ordinary wall or table.
Gradually, those black eyes stared at Anna, and Anna was slightly startled, subconsciously lowered her arms and sat up slightly, looking at Lu Li with questioning eyes.
“…?”
The black eyes moved slightly, and the focus fell on Anna.
"Illusion."
Lu Li briefly explained, watching the butterfly phantom float past Anna's body, fluttering its wings and flying out of the house, getting out of the wooden house.
He retracted his gaze and added: "Contacting the psychic gun for a long time has lowered my sanity to a dangerous level, and now I occasionally observe some existences in the inner world."
"Is it serious?"
"It's not a big problem."
Lu Li has just entered this stage, and the hallucinations produced are extremely slight. Although the endless illusions may make Lu Li misjudgment, it is not without benefits. At least Lu Li could have a deeper understanding of the illusions projected by these inner worlds.
This is what Lu Li always wanted to know.
"Unfortunately I can't see it."
Anna was a little fortunate and a little regretful. She felt like she might have missed something fun.
Although for most people these visions are scary enough to drive me crazy.
The world in is not just one layer, and then all the weirdness exists in it - it is more like a multi-space parasitic on the main world.
Anna is in the inner world, but she cannot observe the butterfly phantom. Butterfly phantom is also in the inner world, and it also cannot observe Anna.
There will be no intersection between them.
Only in the main world can you observe the existence of all the inner worlds at the same time, and the Sanity value must drop to a certain extent.
Period of ignorance, period of illusion, period of truth.
These are the three stages of Sanity that Lu Li knows. Maybe there are other stages after the real period, Joel the night watchman didn't say, that's not the scope of consideration.
The period of ignorance is a normal state, like shallow water, very calm and safe. Most of the ordinary people in this world are in this state. Unless there is a large strangeness like the Calamity of the Night, they basically have no understanding of the deeper areas. The beings living in the inner world will not find them either.
Phantom period is a problem state, like deep water, not very safe, but not bad. Lu Li was in a position where he had just entered this stage. He would randomly observe some projections of the existence of the world, like a radio station. Lu Li's radio will randomly jump to various frequencies and receive messages on the frequencies. This kind of acceptance is one-way, Lu Li can listen to them, they can't listen to Lu Li.
The real period is a distorted state, like an abyss. Terrible, terribly troublesome, and shuddering from the name alone. Observations at this stage are no longer one-way, and the radio analogy doesn't fit into it—because when a person with a distorted sanity sees a projection, that projection sees that person.
Observation is mutual, as you look at the abyss, the abyss is also watching you.
This is the origin of the saying "the more you know, the quicker you die".
But this sentence is now about to be twisted into its surface meaning by some anti-industrial idiots: You will die if you know more.
The only thing that counts as good news is that the projection can see you, but can't touch you until... the next stage.
Lu Li has a final stage to speculate on Sanity. If the person in the twisted state has not gone mad, and the Sanity value continues to decline, it will reach this stage——
They hear you, they see you. Now, they can touch you.
Lu Li's divergent thinking is reminiscent of the blood-colored tentacles and doors. Are they considered weird? Can it be classified under the sanity value?
It's time to test your sanity when you go back.
The roar of the hurricane continued uninterrupted, and some stagnant water poured into the door, which was blocked by Anna throwing the sheets.
Lu Li needs to know the exact time to make sure it is not dark when they evacuate. Anna relied on no entity to get out of the wall to observe the outside weather from time to time, but unfortunately the dark clouds outside, the dark sky seemed to be late at night, and it was impossible to tell the time at this time.
Unable to determine the time, Lu Li simply decided to try to leave the swamp as soon as the hurricane outside became smaller.
Waiting anxiously, time passed minute by minute. The hurricane outside is still violent, and there is no sign of abating.
One hour.
Two hours.
three hours.
After the third hour passed in Lu Li's heart, Lu Li began to put on his boots and tie his shoelaces tightly to prevent the rain from getting into the shoes.
Can't wait any longer.
They arrived at the wooden house at about 9:00 in the morning, and spent about 4-5 hours to settle the family of three and sleep and rest, and then count the three hours of waiting at this moment...
Perhaps now the time is very close to the evening when the night comes, six o'clock in the afternoon.
But at this moment, there was a quick slam on the door of the wooden house.
Anna looked up suddenly, and before she could say anything, a faint shout from the wind dissipated into the room.
"Open the door!"
is human.
Lu Li walked to the door, moved the dining table to open the door, and a huge even force suddenly came from behind the door, followed by the bird-beak masked figure who stumbled into the wooden house.
She was carrying a person on her back.
The wind was howling, and the exuberant fire was almost blown out. In the gloom, Lu Li pushed the door tightly, blocking the outside wind and rain.
The wooden house is bright again.
"I guessed it was you."
The seeker gasped heavily and crouched behind the beak mask figure.
Lu Li noticed that the seeker's right calf had a bitten wound, and the suitcase was missing.
The figure with the beak mask placed the seeker by the fire and turned to face Lu Li.
Lu Li didn't ask why the invitation and the seeker were here, because it was useless to ask, he had something more to know: "What time is it now."
The bird-beak-masked figure was involved in his wound when he put down the seeker. His right leg was hanging in the air, and the corner of his mouth was grinning.
Lu Li didn't speak, and looked at the bird's beak mask.
"That's right."
The husky female voice is as brief as ever.
Lu Li nodded, picked up his backpack and oil lamp, and turned his head to look at Anna.
"Ready to leave."
