Chapter 231 - Fake Heart and True Love (2/2)

“Don’t say that.” Zhou Yuan smiled and said, “isn’t it one of the ways to save people when I was studying with Bodhisattvas?”

Liu Shuai also followed up with Chen Busheng at this time. “Where is the real Li Yufei now?”

“I guess he should be still nearby.” Zhou Yuan nodded. He looked at Busheng and said, “considering the situation, Yi Pingzhi knows a lot about you. Just for some reason, he gave Li Yufei to house arrest. We need to find Yi Pingzhi to get some clues – What the hell is this?

Just after a turn, Zhou Yuan looked at the stairs in front of him and shouted out.

Not to mention Zhou Yuan, Hao Ning and others were shocked too. They were just ready to go downstairs and the feet stretching out moved back quickly. According to the road they had just been through, this intersection should be the concrete pavement stairs of the upper and lower floors. But Hao Ning and others now couldn’t see any stairs at all, but a thin strip of steel like a flap. It seemed that if someone stepped on, it would break immediately. Hao Ning looked down on the side, and the dormitory on the next floor was completely no longer there and replaced by some simple luminous lines.

“What is going on?” These people looked at the scene in front of them and panicked for a moment, not knowing whether they should step on it.

“Little Yufei,” said Chen Busheng, whose happy voice came from behind. “Where are you taking me to?”

“A Sheng.” Li Yufei’s voice also passed. “It’s too late. We used to watch the stars together on the campus lawn at this time. Let’s go?”

“This fake Li Yufei…” Chen Busheng heard this sentence, and his eyes were a little moist. “It really seems to be real. He even knows these details…”

“Do you want to grieve or solve the problem?” Zhou Yuan felt a little helpless. “Big brother, we can’t even go downstairs…”

Zhou Yuan hadn’t finished talking yet, but Hao Ning had already pointed to the stairs and called, “Zhou Yuan, look!”

When people looked up the stairs, they saw that the stairs gradually changing from steel bars to concrete floors. The dormitory below also changed from a line to a real iron plate, and then became real doors at a visible speed to the naked eye. At this time, the fake Chen Busheng and Yufei just walked to the intersection, and the two men walked down the stairs with a smile.

Watching the two fake people going down, the four people were stunned. And Liu Shuai couldn’t figure out with shaking his head. When he turned his head, he saw that the aisles and dormitory on this floor gradually changed from a clear dormitory to a steel plate, and then become a line!

“Not good!” Zhou Yuan saw this situation and said quickly, “I probably know what happened! We should follow these people!”

After talking about that, these people kept running and catching up with the two “fake” people breathlessly. They soon came to the campus lawn. The two people were “happily” watching the stars and moon on the sky. But the strange thing was that the place where they couldn’t see was almost like a steel plate. As soon as they turned back, the steel plate immediately became the lawn, dormitory and other scenery.

“This, what the hell is going on?” Hao Ning looked at this romantic and strange scene, while gasping and asking Zhou Yuan. Zhou Yuan sighed and asked Liu Shuai, “what do you think of this?”

Liu Shuai also looked at Zhou Yuan, opening his mouth but finally did not say it. He just shook his head, “I dare not say, you say it.”

Zhou Yuan shook his head. “You just don’t dare to say it, right? We don’t know when we have entered a “brain in the vat” designed by some people.”

“The brain in the vat?” Hao Ning and Chen Busheng looked at each other and shouted out, but they noticed that although Liu Shuai was surprised, but not as surprised as he was. “Do you think so? You know much about the brain in the vat, right? You are not surprised?”

It’s reasonable for Hao Ning to ask this question. Last time, he had destroyed the fake Manjusri (of course, the fake Manjusri should be regarded as Doctor Xue’s self-destruction, but in Hao Ning’s memories, he naturally put better impression on himself). When Zhou Yuan analyzed the brain in the vat to other people, Liu Shuai did not understand what it was. At this time, Zhou Yuan once again proposed this concept. Liu Shuai did not ask questions. This was strange enough.

“You don’t know.” Liu Shuai shook his head. “I don’t quite agree with Zhou Yuan’s brain-in-the-vat theory. But don’t forget that I am a computer programmer. The phenomenon we encountered just now, although you don’t see it much often, but this is simply too common for me, a computer programmer.”

“What do you mean?” Hao Ning felt a bit strange. “What phenomenon do you say? You think it is too common? Then why can’t I see the common phenomena that you see?”

“Hey, do you remember when the fake Yufei and fake Chen Busheng were in the dormitory?” Liu Shuai whispered, although he knew that Yufei and Chen Busheng in front of him couldn’t hear, he still didn’t dare to raise his voice. “When we saw the corridor, we felt like the steel material was not well built. But when Yufei and the fake Chen were coming up, these corridors and the dormitory were ready soon.”

“Yes,” Hao Ning nodded. “it’s weird!”

“It is strange if you see it from a realistic point of view.” Liu Shuai shook his head. “But this is a common way of processing in computer games. In 3D games, scenes from the perspective of gamers are always prioritized for gamers. But in the scenes or the location they can’t see, the computer will not calculate the scenery in this part, or the calculation is rough, just like “-” Liu Shuai pointed to the distant scenery behind Chen Busheng and Yufei. Hao Ning looked at the past. The fog and the trees in the distance are like steel bars. But if Chen Busheng looked back, these steel bars immediately turned into trees.

“Yes, like these trees, and the scenery.” Liu Shuai nodded. “I just want to say that these people are playing games, but it is not accurate. Zhou Yuan’s point that we have entered in a brain in the vat may be more accurate somehow, was more accurate.”

“That’s not right, either.” Hao Ning thought. “So why can we see these steel bars?”

“That’s because,” Zhou Yuan squatted the grass heavily, “this brain in the vat did not find us. So, it only designed the scene for the roles of Chen Busheng and Li Yufei – and fortunately, we can find the problem inside!”

After hitting the ground, Zhou Yuan frowned and looked down at the grass on the ground, seemingly studying on something.

“What should we do?” Chen Busheng was also an intelligent student at Qingbei University. Now he seemed to understand. “That is, we are now entering a game designed by some people? It’s terrible, if I just followed this Yi Pingzhi in, I must have fallen into their trap! It’s too odious! What does this Yi Pingzhi really want! What did he to Yufei again!”

Saying that Chen Busheng breathed a little anxiously and coughed twice.

“It is not a good time to be angry now.” Hao Ning sighed. “The most important thing is to get out of the brain in the vat and figure out the relationship between this Yi Pingzhi and Pure Land of Bliss!”

“Pure Land of Bliss?” Chen Busheng looked up. “What are you talking about, Pure Land of Bliss?”

Hao Ning felt stranger. “How do you know that?”

“I don’t know.” Chen Busheng shook his head. “I just heard Yufei had mentioned that occasionally when I was dreaming. I don’t remember what it is specifically.”

Hao Ning and Liu Shuai looked at each other. If Chen Busheng was correct, then Yi Pingzhi, Li Yufei, and Pure Land of Bliss must have known something in common.

Hao Ning suddenly thought of a terrible situation, looking at Liu Shuai and said, “do you think that this Yi Pingzhi had already put Yufei…” Here, Hao Ning looked at Chen Busheng with a squint and stopped talking.

“I know what you mean, you don’t have to avoid me.” Chen Busheng smiled bitterly. “It is very likely that Yi Pingzhi has already killed Yufei. I don’t think so, otherwise he should have killed me directly.” He came to me and planned to give me a brain in the vat to keep me alive, probably to threaten Yufei to do things for him…”

Yes, he is very likely to do that.

“This is not a way to guess randomly.” Hao Ning slammed his forehead. “We have to find a way out.”

“But how to break the brain in the vat?” Liu Shuai shook his head and pointed at the two people. “I think that counting on these two happy guys are not working. Or else, Zhou Yuan, you try to get rid of the Virtualized reality? Maybe as soon as we appear, the brain in this vat would leave a loophole to us?”

“How is it possible?” Zhou Yuan said with a smile. “This method is certainly not reliable. For the sake of our safety, I have to take the risk to try my skills.”

Zhou Yuan started to murmur with a little sword flowing out of his eyebrows. Hao Ning gave a glance and found that it was nothing but the Hui sword of the Manjusri. Zhou Yuan turned this golden Hui sword into a small dagger, gently lined on a small grass on the ground. The grass was cut off, and Zhou Yuan pointed to the grass again. The grass entered the Virtualized reality.

Zhou Yuan took this grass for a long time and made a few strokes to the grass in the air. This grass was soft like muds. After a while, it became a silver liquid, flowing in Zhou Yuan’s hand. Zhou Yuan happily said, “sure! It is the Pandora metal!”

Seeing Hao Ning and other people puzzled, Zhou Yuan explained. “I have just studied the special brain in this vat. First, in addition to the fake Chen Busheng, we can also see the scene inside the brain in this vat. This means that the brain in this special vat cannot be created by the insertion of electrodes into the brain, or by the action of a certain hallucinogen. Otherwise we can’t see it at all. So, there is only one possibility. These scenes are real, but this reality is constantly changing with the perspective of Yufei and Chen Busheng. It may be created by a material that can be changed according to consciousness. Until now, there is only one such special material, that is Pandora metal!”

Hao Ning also understood because there was some Pandora metal in his ring. It could be turned into various objects according to his own consciousness. However, this Pandora metal seemed to be afraid of Zhou Yuan’s Hui sword. This was called, by Zhou Yuan’s words, Hui Sword that could break all illusions. As for the reason, it was not clear.

“Great!” cried Chen Busheng. “Take the sword with you and ruin the illusion here!”

“No!” Hao Ning shook his head. “This will definitely notify the master of the brain in the vat. So, this person will know that there is a problem here. The real Yufei may be dangerous!”

Of course, Hao Ning was also worried that once this was the case, it would be even more difficult to determine the situation of Pure Land of Bliss, but he did not say this.

“What should we do?” Liu Shuai shook his head. “In this case, if we know the original reason, there is no way for us to get out!”

At this time, the fake Yufei and the fake Chen Busheng looked at each other with smile. Then they stood up and prepared to go back to the dormitory. The remaining few people had to go back to the dormitory with the two people.

When they walked to the door of the dormitory building, Zhou Yuan suddenly said to Chen Busheng. “You mean, this dormitory door is a few meters away from the normal door’s position?”

“Yes,” Chen Busheng pointed to the wall to the left of the dormitory door. “The normal door should be here.”

“It turns out that – ” Zhou Yuan smiled and smiled. “Let’s try it!”

Speaking of that, Zhou Yuan turned the Hui Sword into a small dagger and made a few strokes to the wall next to the dormitory door. There was some light on this wall as if there were something moving back and forth in there. Zhou Yuan shouted, “get in now!”

After that, the four people rushed in from the light in the wall. After entering the wall, they were all stunned.
