Fang Zhengzheng didn't know what was happening on the lake. His only thought now was to rescue Yan Xiu. He had lived in a mountain village since he was a child and had been in rivers and ponds countless times. His water quality was naturally not bad...
What's more, with the help of the Tao of All Things, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Fang Zhengzheng is now just a fish.
But where is Yan Xiu
From the time Yan Xiu fell into the water to Fang Zhengzheng's immediate diving, the time between them was no more than ten seconds at most.
Fang Zhengzheng was filled with doubts. Although there was some distance between him and Yan Xiu, it shouldn't be that he couldn't see Yan Xiu. But the problem now was that he couldn't see Yan Xiu.
Not even a shadow could be seen, the only thing that could be seen was darkness, as black as ink.
what happened
Where did Yan Xiu go
Could it be...
Suddenly, Fang Zhengzheng was shocked. He didn't really see Yan Xiu fall into the water. He just heard the sound of falling into the water and saw the splash of water. In addition, he didn't see Yan Xiu from where Yan Xiu was hiding. build.
Therefore, his first thought at the time was that Yan Xiu must have fallen into the water.
But what about the facts
From the beginning to the end, he never saw Yan Xiu jump into the water.
If something happened to fall into the lake, and Yan Xiu happened to leave the grass to check somewhere else...
The possibility is low, but not completely impossible.
Another possibility is that Yan Xiu was forcibly pulled to the bottom of the lake by something and fell into the ink-like darkness.
This is also possible, because once it is pulled by some unknown life, the speed after falling into the water will definitely be incomparable to itself. Ten seconds seems very short.
But it’s enough to drag you down to the bottom of the lake…
Fang Zhengzheng did not look back immediately.
Because, if it is the first type, it also means that Yan Xiu is still on the shore and is safe. Since it is safe, there is not much difference between going up earlier and going up later.
But what if it’s the second kind
That meant that Yan Xiu was in real danger.
so. He had to explore the truth about the ink at the bottom of the lake. This might be dangerous, but for Yan Xiu's sake, Fang Zhengzheng felt that the risk was worth taking.
because. They are friends.
…
Fang Zhengzheng didn't know if he had entered the ink place at the bottom of the lake. He could only see that the surroundings had become completely dark, as black as night, and he couldn't even see his fingers.
It must have arrived by now.
After continuing to dive for a while, Fang Zhengzheng felt his chest getting more and more stuffy. It is probably caused by long-term deoxygenation, but the bottom of the lake is still not touched, and it feels like there is no bottom at all.
Why is this happening
How deep is this lake? If Yan Xiu was at the bottom of the lake, there would at least be some movement of the water.
Something's wrong...
Fang Zhengzheng always had a very strange feeling. He seemed to be going in circles when he was at the bottom of the lake. This should not exist, after all, he was always diving.
But he just had this feeling, like he was constantly swimming in a circle.
He was swimming so much that he even lost his direction...
"Go up!" Fang Zhengzheng finally decided to go up and have a look. If Yan Xiuzhen was here, there should be at least no sound of water. Then, it is very likely that Yan Xiu is still on the shore.
Swimming to the surface is naturally easier than diving down.
Without spending too much time, Fang Zheng felt that a faint light seemed to appear above his head, and it should be almost reaching the surface of the water.
"Huh!" The feeling of breathing air again gave Fang Zhengzheng a feeling of new life. He had been holding it in the water for almost seven or eight minutes, and he had reached his limit.
As soon as he came out of the water, Fang Zhengzheng looked towards the shore.
However…
Just this glance made him stunned again.
What are you doing
The lake is still the same lake, but the scenery on the shore has completely changed. There is no longer a lush forest, there is just an orchard, a vibrant orchard.
Various fruits hang on the branches, red. Green, yellow...
This is where
Fang Zhengzheng really couldn't react at the moment. This kind of thing would be difficult for anyone to accept. After all, he had only dived into the lake for seven or eight minutes.
Come up again. The whole world has changed
After being stunned for five minutes, Fang Zhengzheng felt that the lake water seemed to be a little cooler.
From courtyards full of flowers to lush green forests... to orchards filled with all kinds of fruits? !
Here are the four seasons!
But why does it turn into autumn after emerging from the bottom of the lake
Could it be...
Fang Zhengzheng looked at the bottom of the lake. It was still dark and completely bottomless, as if it was stained with ink. However, Fang Zhengzheng now had a more appropriate metaphor.
That's the passage!
A passage from summer to autumn.
"call!"
At this moment, a sound of exhalation came from not far away, and then, a head popped out of the lake.
Four eyes are biphasic.
"Why are you diving?"
"Why did you fall into the lake?"
Two voices sounded at the same time, their words were different, but their meaning was the same.
Then, both people's faces showed doubts at the same time, as if they didn't understand what the other person meant.
"I thought you fell into the water, so I jumped!"
"I saw you jump, so I jumped too!"
The two people were speechless again, but a warmth rose in their hearts at the same time. Yes, these are friends, because only friends have the same thoughts.
"Let's go ashore first!" Fang Zhengzheng pointed to the shore.
Yan Xiu nodded.
So the two of them swam towards the shore. After a while, when they landed, Fang Zhengzheng could probably guess what happened between the two, but he was not sure.
Then, the two exchanged opinions.
Fang Zhengzheng originally thought that Yan Xiu just left the grass, but in fact it was different from what he thought.
"You heard the sound of me falling into the water, and then you saw that I was not in the grass, so you jumped down?" Fang Zhengzheng frowned slightly.
"Yes, what about you?" Yan Xiu nodded and asked.
"So you've never left the grass? You've never moved?" Fang Zhengzheng was a little confused.
"Um."
"I'm in the same situation as you! I also saw you fall into the water, and then I jumped in."
"Is this so?" Yan Xiu was also a little confused.
The two fell into silence again, both thinking about something.
"I see!"
"I seem to understand it too!"
Fang Zhengzheng and Yan Xiu's voices sounded almost in tandem. Both of them had incredible looks in their eyes. This explanation would sound very complicated and difficult to understand.
However, apart from this explanation, they could not think of another explanation.
That is…
When they were on the shore, they appeared to be together, but in fact, they were in two different spaces with the same scenery.
Wanbao Tianlou, big world...
Fang Zhengzheng's mind was spinning rapidly. If this was the case, then the two people would naturally not be able to see each other's existence. But how to explain the sound of falling into the water
Is it an auditory hallucination
Or is it caused by the dislocation of space, or even the flow of gaps before and after time
Fang Zhengyi looked at Yan Xiu, and Yan Xiu also looked at Fang Zhengyi.
"I think there seem to be many different spaces in Wanbao Tianlou!" Fang Zhengzheng's thoughts were based on the views in the previous world.
"Maybe it can be explained as being composed of different worlds..." Yan Xiu nodded slightly, but he used the concept of the current world to explain.
"If according to your statement, then the big world is composed of countless small worlds?" Fang Zhengzheng tried to guess based on Yan Xiu's explanation.
"It is possible. There is a saying in the "Tao Canon" that each of the three thousand worlds includes all things! Since it includes all things, it should be explainable that there are some different small worlds in it! "
"Then this lake is..."
"If your guess is correct, the bottom of this lake is the passage connecting the world just now to the current world!" Yan Xiu affirmed.
Fang Zhengzheng nodded. Yan Xiuhe had the same idea as him.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain that after emerging from the bottom of the lake, a new scene appeared. In other words, when I was diving just now, I had actually entered the current world from the previous world.
When I resurface, I will naturally end up here.
Fang Zhengzheng didn't speak anymore, but subconsciously looked at the lake.
The lake in front of me is still very calm. There are no dancing women, only the fruit trees reflected in the lake. One by one, the fruit trees are reflected in the lake water.
It's a bit like a flower in the mirror.
"Flowers in the Mirror, Moon in the Water!" Fang Zhengzheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and something suddenly opened in his mind, as if he had touched the threshold of another world.
It's just that this feeling is very vague and he can't fully understand it yet.
However, he had a strong feeling that this big world might be able to solve the mystery that had always puzzled him.
"Have you thought of anything?" Yan Xiu looked at Fang Zhengzheng's expression and asked.
"Not yet. Can you tell me again what the strength of Amaterasu is?" Fang Zhengzheng shook his head gently. He felt that he needed to confirm again.
"Yes, the so-called Amaterasu realm is to let the small world in your body resonate with all things outside, and then mobilize the power of all things around you. However, there is a limitation that only the way of all things in the small world can be , that’s all!” Yan Xiu didn’t understand why Fang Zhengzheng suddenly asked this question, but he explained it quickly.
"The small world resonates with all things. Only the way of all things mastered in the small world can resonate with all things in the outside world..." Fang Zhengzheng thought about this sentence seriously.
He always felt that there was some mystery in it.
Amaterasu…
Small world and everything? !
Moreover, it must only exist in the small world! (To be continued.)
