"But, what's behind it?" I chased up and asked, but Wen Jiubai avoided talking about it.

"This issue is not important now. We must first find a way to escape from here. If we can't find a passage to connect to the above, it is useless to say anything." Wen Jiubai kept walking, and at the same time Still kept looking around.

What Wen Jiubai said is not unreasonable, sometimes I just hate that he can always say something.

"I don't know, I never thought about it." I mumbled behind Wen Jiubai, "I put all my eggs in one basket and never thought that I could really find you."

"Why am I not surprised at all?" Wen Jiubai walked to the corner, touched the wall with his fingers, observed carefully, and said casually.

Why is he mocking me even at times like this? I was very unconvinced, and just when I was about to refute a few words, Wen Jiubai spoke before me.

"Gu Yu, do you know why there is a maze here?"

maze

Ah... From what he said, the countless corridors and surrounding walls here are indeed a maze. I didn't even realize it before.

I shook my head to show that I didn't know.

"Because there is actually no maze here." After Wen Jiubai said something puzzling, he put down the wall he was very interested in, and turned to me, "Haven't you thought about this problem? Since you are from If Boss Mao came here, he should know that this is the gap in the underworld, that is to say, there is no substance here, and there is nothing but nothingness. Then, why are there these solid walls in the nothingness, have you ever thought about it? ?"

I nodded and shook my head again. Although I understood what Wen Jiubai meant this time, I didn't know the answer to his question.

"The answer is simple. Everything you see is conceived in your mind. Because when you first entered this place, your mind was chaotic and confused, so this field was specially created for you. A maze from which we cannot get out." Wen Jiubai looked at the surrounding walls and said, "It can be said that it is your thoughts that trapped the two of us in this place."

"Wait." I interrupted Wen Jiubai and asked inexplicably, "What do you mean? Are you saying that the place we are now is an illusion?"

"No, it's real." Wen Jiubai denied my guess, "It's real, but it's also a fantasy. This place itself is the intersection of two worlds, where matter and spirit are the same thing. Thought is matter , Matter is thought, in other words—your thoughts can affect everything here. Here you can easily turn your thoughts into reality.”

I looked at Wen Jiubai in surprise, and then refuted him mercilessly.

"How is this possible, do you think I'm a five-year-old child?" I thought it was very funny, "Isn't that a dream come true? Why don't I feel that my dream can come true now. I'm thinking about a hamburger right now , why didn't the hamburger appear in front of me?"

"Because you're not hungry right now." Wen Jiubai said casually, "You're in a very tense state right now. Even if you're really empty, you probably don't have the heart to eat, right? Burgers aren't what you're most craving right now. Things, of course, will not be visualized."

"Then you mean as long as it's something I desperately desire?" I still find it inconceivable, "Or what, my subconscious wish will come true?"

It's too outrageous, it's like a fantasy novel.

But I didn't expect Wen Jiubai to actually nod his head, and then said flatly: "That's right, I'm in front of you now, which is a good example."

Wen Jiubai...is an example

My almost rusty brain went into action. If this is really the gap between Yin and Yang, it should be at least as big as the entire earth plane, then my search for Wen Jiubai is like finding a needle in a haystack, which is almost impossible.

I was already mentally prepared for that, but I didn't expect that I would easily meet Wen Jiubai just by running around here. Does that mean that Wen Jiubai appeared in front of me because of my deep desire to see Wen Jiubai

Anyway, it's incredible.

"There is nothing in this world that is inconceivable." Wen Jiubai read my mind as if he could read my mind, and said slowly, "The so-called inconceivable is just an excuse made up by human beings to maintain the precarious sociality. Gu Yu, you are the creator of the world you are in now. No, as long as you are in this void, anyone can be the creator."

When Wen Jiubai spoke in such a firm tone, I was even more confused.

"What you said is too outrageous... Even if I believe you, then what you told me has nothing to do with how we escape?" I complained, "You just said that our top priority now Get out of here quickly."

"That's true, that's why I want to inform you in advance." Wen Jiubai said lazily, stretched suddenly for no reason, clasped the fingers of his hands together, and started stretching exercises, "in case the matter ends After that, you will call me heartless again."

"Huh?" I couldn't understand it at all this time.

Just when I was about to ask, a terrible loud noise came from behind us, as if some giant suddenly overwhelmed the entire wall.

I was taken aback, and immediately turned my head to look, but was stunned by the sight in front of me. A gigantic beast that seems to have come out of a disaster movie is roaring and showing its sharp teeth. It is as high as a floor, and its huge body can only walk with its waist bent in the corridors of the maze. Not very happy, roaring loudly, flicking that dinosaur-like tail.

"What the hell is going on here!" My voice broke.

"It's basically the kind of monster that would appear in an American movie." Wen Jiubai raised his arm to protect his head to prevent falling rocks from hitting him, but his voice was still calm, "I'm not sure what it is in that movie." It’s not really what it looks like, but I’ve tried my best.”

"What?!" I yelled back, "You made this guy?"

"Yes, it's basically what you said. But if we stand still here, I think it will eat us!" Wen Jiubai shouted at me, "Run!"
