Chapter 338 The second stage of the road "Safety Boundary"
Lao Mo nodded: "Da Vinci was also the founder of sculpture in the Department of Art... Thinking about it this way, are you more balanced?"
Balanced a hammer... I'm even more fucking unbalanced! Lin Yi was ashamed, wondering why he became more and more obsessed with the gang of guys mentioned in the textbook.
But one thing to say, it is no wonder that those enlighteners who engaged in art during the Renaissance were not only good at painting, but also proficient in sculpture and architecture. It turns out that from that time on, the subject of "art" was far more than simple as it seemed!
Lin Yi was a little doubtful at this moment. Could the existence of the Louvre be the so-called "gallery" mentioned in the art building?
It is full of works by art masters, and every piece of work... is a thing with extraordinary properties comparable to an old kerosene lamp?
On the surface it looks like "Mona Lisa's Smile", but actually for the nocturnal species, it's "The Smile of Death"?
Lao Mo is still popularizing science: "The "Heliocentric Theory"... was originally proposed by the "Apostles", but at that time... this knowledge point was too out of scope. In short, the original "Heliocentric Theory" was an exploration of the source of pollution by the apostles, but it was accidentally spread. It is not a statement in the same field as the later "Heliocentric Theory". "
"The scientific "Heliocentric Theory" is nothing more than a major event that deliberately manipulates public opinion to form a corresponding "anchor" on that matter."
Lao Mo read a lot of popular science books, and even felt a bit like a popular science writer, while Lin Yi started to glance at his watch from time to time.
Lao Mo was not in a hurry, but he was a little anxious.
It's not because of other reasons, but because Lao Mota popularizes science and returns to popular science, why is it still unchanged until now?
"That...Old Mo." Lin Yi couldn't help but call out to Lao Mo.
Lao Mo turned back: "What's wrong?"
Lin Yi wiped his sweat and asked in a low voice: "Although I don't understand very well, I still want to take the liberty to ask, we... don't need to move? I mean, after we left the returning wave, we just waited here like this?"
Just now, Lao Mo said "Follow me" and then led him into the fog, but he came back before he had gone far, as if he had gone on a patrol.
Lao Mo heard the words, his eyebrows slightly curved, and nodded: "Yes, just wait like this."
The parts in operation are measured, but the positions of some things are constant, such as the basic frame, and the screws that fix the frame. Lao Mo threw away the branch in his hand and gently stroked the incomplete red paint numbers on the scrapped street lamp poles.
"These lampposts...are they 'screws'?!" Lin Yi said in surprise.
The corner of Lao Mo's mouth twitched: "Ahem...I just praised you for your good understanding. Why are you using such a simple substitution method now?"
"Once, they were." Lao Mo said, "But since the Black Moon Outpost experienced the wash of the Day of Destruction, they have been scrapped... I tell you about the frame and fixed points, not to explain what kind of thing this street light pole is, but to guide you to think about it..."
"In addition to those things In addition, there is another thing... that will also accumulate with the existence of the frame and the fixed point. "
Lin Yi frowned suddenly. He imagined a sophisticated instrument in his mind, but could not conceive of anything else that matched what Lao Mo said, because the word "frame" included many things.
Seeing that Lin Yi couldn't think of anything for a while, Lao Mo said, "Although you are very good at thinking, you are always influenced by stereotypes... I will tell you directly."
Lin Yi pursed his lips and nodded seriously.
Old Mo slowly spit out two words: "'Dust'."
"Dust...?" Lin Yi's pupils shook violently, and his mind exploded with a "boom"!
"As the machinery operates, part of the dust will be slowly blown into the corners. If not cleaned, it will turn into spider webs or even other dirt."
"These abandoned street light poles have turned into dust."
"When they are abandoned, they will drift with the current, and eventually they will become stuck like floating garbage pushed to a stable dead end by the water. These abandoned street light poles are to the green forest belt what floating garbage is to the river." Looking for some dust? "
Lao Mo patted his shoulder: "I realized this fairly quickly. The framework of the campus is divided into many layers. The ones near the surface are relatively easy to find, but the ones on the inner layers are related to the art building, so it is very difficult to find."
"So I did the next best thing and used dust to locate an area, and this area is the approximate location of the screws."
Lin Yi understood that he understood, and asked again: "But what is the connection between this and the second stage of the road?"
Looking into the depths of the mist, the old god said to the ground: "I don't look at the mountains, the mountains are coming to me."
Lin Yi's gaze quickly moved forward along the direction pointed by Lao Mo's finger. At this sight, he was shocked.
“That’s...?”
Not far in front of him was the junction between the depths of the green forest belt and the edge of the dense forest, the place where light and shadow separated.
The thick fog is like a huge, flowing white curtain, spreading wantonly among the jungles. It is already dark, but there is still some fog that seems to be dyed white by unknown light, as if it is given some holy light.
Each tiny mist droplet shone with a hazy light, like countless tiny stars floating among them. The cold moonlight struggled to penetrate the layers of branches and leaves, forming straight light yellow light pillars that were clearly visible in the mist, as if they were guiding a path to a strange world.
The trees here are outlined vaguely by the soft light, and the moss on the tree trunks is shiny green, as if awakened to life by this light.
Behind the light pillar, on the dark side, the fog becomes even more gloomy. The shadow is like an invisible giant beast devouring everything. The fog is like the cold breath it exhales, cold and thick.
The trees were only huge and twisted black shadows in the fog and darkness, like ferocious monsters hiding in the dark. Occasionally, a few green phosphorescent lights flickered in the darkness. Those might be the eyes of some unknown creature, peering into this mysterious border.
The dead silence is infinitely amplified here, with only the faint sound of the flowing mist, like heavy breathing coming from the depths of darkness, which makes people's hair stand on end.
On the dividing line between light and darkness, it seems that there are two completely different worlds. One side is a world full of unknowns, fears, gloominess and terror, and the other side is a world that is more unknown, more frightening, gloomier and more terrifying.
There is no security, no safety, only danger and boundless danger.
"But this place..." Lin Yi felt confused in his heart, "Kuaikui directly crossed this boundary and entered the depths... Old Mo went through all the trouble just to come here?"
Lao Mo..." Lin Yi asked in a low voice, "Where is that place?"
He naturally knew where it was, but what he knew was a little less "official", so he still wanted to hear Lao Mo's "official answer".
Lao Mo looked at the dividing line between light and shadow in front of him and said, "That's the 'safety boundary' of the campus."
"The...'safety boundary' of the campus?!"
"As long as you don't cross the "safety boundary", even if you get lost in the green forest belt, you still have a chance to be saved by the security guard."
"But if you cross that border, you will most likely have to wait for death."
"Because it is a border line, so it is not a specific point..." Lao Mo pointed to the pillars of light formed by the cold moonlight over there. line, "If you look carefully, the boundary keeps extending, right?"
"Do you remember that the school is built in a mountainous area, and almost every building is surrounded by green forest belts, and deep in the green forest belt, there is such a dividing line..."
"And the location I take you to is like a tangent point on the dividing line. The shortest distance is to cross from here."
Lin Yi suddenly realized: "Behind the safety boundary is a moving part. The area where the red-painted numbered street light pole is located will become the 'cutting point' at a certain moment?"
> "But when it opens the door at the station, it will be much easier to get up."
"Bus! Station!" Lin Yi suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart, "No wonder Mu Daxian and Mao Zi came very close to this place, but never crossed this boundary, and Kuai Kuai and Shan Nan crossed the boundary!"
Thinking back now, Lin Yi found out that there was a street light pole with a red paint number where Shan Nan escaped!
And the red-painted numbered street light pole was specially found for him by Kuai Hongji to guide him!
Lin Yi couldn't help but said again: "Old Mo, if I pull out this street light pole, will it be of any use?"
Lin Yi said silently: "Are you an idiot? The dust will float here, not how much dust will float, but It's so cheap!"
"It won't be of much use if you pull it out, no matter where you throw it, it will eventually float to a similar fixed point, understand?"
"But if you want to say it's useful..."
“Even though the red painted serial number on this street light pole is too incomplete to look like, it is an old antique that is almost soaked with pulp. It still has some lingering charm, so it can be used as a self-defense gadget.”
"But anyone with a slightly normal mind would not be able to pick up this thing."
"You can afford a street light pole, wouldn't it be nice to borrow a lamp from the gymnasium? ? It took a lot of effort to pull out a street lamp pole, and it was restricted by the area. Stupid or not, presumptuous or not..."
Lin Yi quickly shut his mouth, wiping a sweat for Shan Nan, and suddenly felt that Shan Nan was different from others.
As his knowledge deepens, others feel more and more awesome, such as the boss, Mu Daxian, and Liangzi... But compared to Shan Nan, why does this value become lower and lower in his heart?
Lin Yi didn't know if it was because Shan Nan couldn't beat him at the critical moment and couldn't talk about it, so that just one high-profile attack almost completely defeated his originally high level of force.
"That's it, let's go." Lao Mo patted Lin Yi's shoulder, then adjusted the comfort of his backpack and walked out first.
Lin Yi quickly followed.
Soon, the two of them came to the dividing line between light and shadow - the "safety boundary".
Standing in front of the security border, I felt a sense of aesthetic beauty, as if I was standing under the aurora during a long night. There was an indescribable feeling.
It was only at this moment, under the illumination of the light, that Lin Yi discovered that the ground at his feet was actually moving slightly!
It was a weird sense of twisting and extending, just like the way the cobblestone roads he had encountered several times twisted as the campus layers fell!
"Don't look at it, it makes me sick." Lao Mo said hello and crossed the safety boundary.
Lin Yi followed suit and crossed over.
Just as he was crossing the safe border, a cold and unprovoked wind suddenly blew out of his ears, bringing with him a cold and ethereal strange call.
ules
This familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded in his ears again, but at first glance it was not the call of the Laughing Angel or the Alien Angel (Forest of the Dead), nor was it the call that appeared several times in the stadium vision accompanied by the "clang, clang, clang, clang" of the iron chain...
˜ But it was such a call that had an indescribable sense of familiarity.
Lin Yi was startled, but Lao Mo's face appeared in front of him.
Lao Mo’s hand landed on his shoulder at some unknown time.
