Cycle?

I was stunned for a moment before carefully considering the word. An extremely terrified feeling welled up from within my heart.

I once saw a foreign film called the Terror Cruise Ship, which begins with the end and ends with a continuous cycle in which no matter how you go, you come back to the beginning.

Obviously, at this moment, we have encountered the same problem, we have also embarked on a road of continuous circulation. This wall of ghosts mentioned by the sea is in fact the same as the wall of ghosts, but the difference is that the wall of ghosts is too illusory, unable to be verified, and the theory of cycles has its own traces.

Whether it was the folklore or the books, when you encountered the Wall-Hitting Ghost, there would be ghosts and evil spirits covering your eyes. That was why you felt that no matter how you walked, you couldn't leave.

This can happen in some woods with fog or miasma, and once the fog is gone, or after dawn, you can leave the Wall.

But a cycle is different, because no matter what you do, its entire path is a cycle, so no matter how you walk, you return to the end. This is the horrors of a cycle.

Firstly, would Chen Jun and his people in the Tang Dynasty be able to construct a stone stairs that would allow people to go around in circles?

Why did he need to create a stone staircase that could circulate?

Secondly, what is the basis for the cycle?

When we came in, there was a corridor leading to the stone steps, but why did the corridor disappear when we stepped onto the stone steps?

There is an even more important question. If the circular steps were built by the People of White Kingdom, then is the person who built it also unable to leave and would be trapped inside to death? But why haven't we seen the corpse?

The Sakyamuni Army map was marked with circular stone steps. How did they leave the place, because only by walking out of the place alive could they draw the map.

It was then that I realized why the Japanese words on the map about the dangers of the stone steps must have been meant to warn us.

Circulation is an indisputable problem, and there are too many things that cannot be explained, but many years later I came to understand that many things that you do not think possible are real when they appear before your eyes. You do not believe it because you do not know what happened to his existence.

But there will always be a way to make him a reality, and what you need to do is not to think about how he exists, but to find a way to solve this dilemma!

Regarding Zhu Yingqiong's question about the loop, the monk was the first to refute: "Although it makes some sense, it's still not right. The entire process of walking down the stone steps is straight, without a bend, how does it loop? When did we return? If it's a cycle, doesn't that mean that the stone steps have no way out? "

Although Hai Yang didn't like to think too much, she still said at this moment, "I don't believe in this cycle. We Chinese say that there is a reason, and there is a reason, and there is a reason. If there is no beginning, then there is no end, just like this stone step, why is there an exit? If there is no exit, then there is definitely an exit, but we probably haven't found it yet."

When did the sea awaken such thoughts? I'm not even sure if I can pull anything off the cause or effect, but I can only frown and say: "The Old Ancestor has many ingenious mechanical skills, we are definitely not clear about it, but Chen Jun naturally understands, and I have reason to believe that this stone staircase was constructed by Chen Jun. There must be an exit, and we will think of a way to go back again, and we will definitely be able to find it."

Zhu Yingqiong said helplessly: "I am only proposing a point of view, and not that we cannot get out. I agree with Chen San's words, if it comes to it, we can definitely find an exit after going over and over again."

We came up with the first solution, the sea waiting, the three of us going down together, and if the stone steps were really going to keep going, we'd be able to meet the sea again, which was the first key point to proving whether the stone steps were going to go back or not.

We sped up our pace, with the monk in front, Zhu Yingqiong and I behind. Completely disregarding the two of us who were running on both sides, the sound of footsteps could be heard in the deathly still environment, it was extremely terrifying. After running for about five to six minutes, we suddenly saw a bright spot in front of us.

The three of us were shocked at the same time. Could it be that we accidentally found an exit this time and immediately ran down. However, we were disappointed when we reached the entrance.

I went over and patted his shoulder. He was so frightened that he turned around and was about to make a move, but when he saw that it was us, he immediately became dispirited and asked listlessly, "We're back? Did you see anything strange along the way? "

The monk said, "I've never encountered such a strange thing in my life. I've been running all the way, and there weren't any twists or turns. How did I end up coming back?"

Zhu Yingqiong asked: "Could it be that this stone step is actually a large mechanism that can spin by itself? The path we are walking down has actually unknowingly turned back, and it's just that we did not notice it when the stone steps moved?"

I knew she meant it the way an elevator does, comparing the stone steps to an elevator, and the elevator would move on its own, and we'd go around it without knowing it.

Hai Yang said with her head opened wide, "Big sis, when it comes to moving, this daddy has thought of this possibility. Do you think the stone steps are the same as the Earth turning and the moon turning? There's actually only one exit, but it blocks the exit during the process and only appears when the exit is reached. It's just that we didn't encounter the exit."

First of all, this is the Wild Mountain, and the Wild Mountain is fixed. How do you want to turn it?

Second, these are the stone steps constructed by the People of White Kingdom. Although we don't know what their goal is, the People of White Kingdom definitely didn't have that kind of ability back then.

The sea immediately turned to ghosts, saying that there might be ghosts around us, laughing at us from the shadows. Why don't we cut our wounds with our daggers and give them some blood so they can open the exit for us?

Zhu Yingqiong said in a speechless manner, "At a time like this, why are you still blabbering like this? It's not like you should hurry up and think of a solution."

The monk asked, "What are your plans?"

Zhu Yingqiong said: "If there really is a trap or something you call a brat, it is to intentionally confuse our minds. It is normal for people to be confused because of the environment, but what happens if someone passes the stone steps?"

She paused and pointed at the gun on the monk's back, "Bullets are not living creatures, they have no thought. If we fire a shot from here, the bullet will fly back, which proves that this place is an infinite loop, we cannot get out. But if the bullet cannot fly back, it means there is an exit, because the bullet runs in a straight line and it will not be confused by the mechanism."

I also felt that it made sense, but the monk shook his head and said, "If it was a loop, the bullets would fly back from behind us. With the speed of the bullets, it's basically a loop.

Hai Yang also said, "And there is another possibility. If it really is cyclical, will the bullet be shuttling back and forth in space?"

I thought to myself, this is also a f * cking problem. Without trying it out with bullets, how are we supposed to find the way out?

I touched my backpack and suddenly said, "We can use ropes to replace bullets!"

Zhu Yingqiong asked: "What do you mean?"

I took out the rope and said, "It's still the sea that's holding on to one end of the rope while the other is holding onto it. If this place isn't circular, we might return, but the rope is unconscious, so it definitely won't connect up and down, so once we reach the point where we need to go back to, the rope will tie up or we won't be able to pull down. That place is definitely the place where we need to turn back to. It might even be the exit!"

The more I thought about it, the more excited I became. It was as if I had found a way out. I tied the two ropes together in a hurry, then handed one to the sea and tied the other to my waist.

The monk didn't want me to take the risk, so he grabbed the rope and tied it to his waist. Without waiting for me to stop, he made a hand gesture towards the sea and rushed down with the flashlight in his hand.

The remaining three of us started to get nervous for no reason, and stared at the rope in the hand of the sea with shining eyes. The rope that was lying limply on the ground was pulled straight up in a moment, and after waiting a few minutes, we didn't see the monk return. However, to our horror, the rope that was pulled taut suddenly fell back to the ground, as if the monk had returned.

Our eyes widened as we looked at each other. At the same time, we turned around to look behind us, but it was empty. The monk was nowhere to be seen.

"Monk must be in trouble!"

I anxiously said in my heart. Just as I was about to pull the rope that was already hanging on the ground and rush downwards, Zhu Yingqiong suddenly stopped me, pointed behind me and said, "There's footsteps!"

Ta ta ta ta!

The sound of dense footsteps came from behind us. We all turned our heads around and saw the monk charging out from behind with small steps and a rope tied around his waist.

Seeing that we were all looking at him strangely, he untied the rope and asked: "What's wrong?"

I shook my head. "The rope came back with you?"

The monk pulled up the rope and said, "We stopped halfway. I thought the rope had reached its end, but then it dropped down again. Did you tie another one?" "Unfortunately, he's back again?"

The three of us shook our heads at the same time because we hadn't tied the rope at all. Furthermore, the rope was stretched straight at first, but then it slowly relaxed and drooped down. What was going on? Were the stone steps not as long as the rope?

Impossible, of all Fourth Uncle's equipment, although these ropes are very strong, one is only about ten meters away, the total distance between the two is only twenty meters, how can it be longer than a circular stone step?

Most importantly, the monk had returned. How did the rope follow him back?

I asked the monk if he had encountered any resistance.

The monk shook his head and said that he had paused when the rope was taut. It was very easy behind him and the rope was still hanging on the ground.

We all felt it was a bit inconceivable, so the sea retracted the rope and tied the rope to the monk. Although the sea had retracted the rope after a long loop, pulling the rope would definitely pull the monk back.

Strangely, the sea retracted more than half of the rope, but the monk still felt nothing, and when the sea pulled the rope back, we were stunned to see that there was nothing at the other end of the rope.

The monk also pulled back his rope out of curiosity, but what made us even more horrified was that there was nothing on his rope out there.

The rope tied to the two of them had unknowingly snapped!
