Unlimited Cycles of Death - Chapter 173
The first thing Mu Chen thought about was how to escape from this closed room?
However, after Mu Chen researched, it was found that the room was really closed, and the difficulty of escape was not ordinary.
This room only looks on the surface, like the European and American retro pastoral style room, doors and walls, etc. It seems that they are made of wooden materials.
However, when Mu Chen touched it with her hands, she could clearly feel that the door and wall floor of this room were actually made of smooth and hard metal materials, but they were disguised as wood materials.
Moreover, this metal material is beyond the imagination’s rigidity. Mu Chen used all kinds of sharp objects that can be found in the room to smash doors and walls to smash the floor, leaving no traces on it.
So Mu Chen immediately understood that this was a very solid “cage.”
During Mu Chen’s imprisonment, the strange man also provided Mu Chen with many books for him to spend time in his cage. These books are diverse and cover a wide range, from astronomy and geography to folk novels, what? Both types.
It ’s just that these books are very strange. Mu Chen found that these books seemed to be foreign books. The names of people and places were also foreign. The contents were mostly obscure and esoteric. However, these books were translated into Chinese intimately. understand.
Anxious Mu Chen couldn’t see in it.
Mu Chen tried to ask the man to let him out when he gave him a meal or something, but the man never paid attention to Mu Chen’s question. After looking at Mu Chen coldly, he left the thing and left. .
Later, the man no longer even delivered meals or items to Mu Chen in person, and he became a small cylindrical robot less than one meter tall.
The little robot came in through the sub-door of the room’s metal door (that is, a small door under the door panel), and gave Muchen the food on the table. They will be delivered every day, and Mu Chen will also clean up the dishes and the room.
Mu Chen tried to toss this robot. He even thought about stopping the robot from going out or in. He moved the tables and chairs to block the door, but the robot was very powerful. Restoration of things.
The robot’s behavior pattern is very single, and it will not do anything other than send things to Mu Chen and clean up the room.
Mu Chen destroys the room to increase its workload, and will attack it with various items that can cause damage. Unfortunately, it is useless.
After many days of toil and exhaustion, Mu Chen finally gave up doing such useless work.
He realized afterwards that the man who imprisoned him seemed to want him to stay in such a closed environment, or that he intended to create such a closed environment for him.
But why do you do this? Is he doing some kind of experiment? Mu Chen remembered what the man said before that he was a little mouse.
Mu Chen couldn’t think anymore. With the passage of time, every day, the dull day and night, Mu Chen’s concept of time became confused.
He couldn’t distinguish between day and night, because the house he stayed in was so closed that he couldn’t see the sky outside or the sunrise and sunset.
The collapse of the concept of time is only the first step, followed by a strong sense of loneliness brought about by long-term inability to communicate with people, and an increasingly severe claustrophobia reaction.
Mu Chen strives to alleviate this feeling by reading or reading books. Although these books are foreign translations, many allusions and meanings in Mu Chen can be understood.
But Mu Chen read the lines of the characters in the book aloud in an attempt to immerse herself in the world of the book. This is indeed a bit effective, but unfortunately the effect is not significant.
Then Mu Chen began to fall into some mental chaos.
He started to have “illusions” … Or, that was not “illusions”.
Initially, these “illusions” were not obvious and even less noticeable. For example, when Mu Chen was focusing on writing and recording her diary, she would find the cup that was originally placed on her left hand side, and she did not know when she moved to her right hand side.
For another example, before going to bed, he took off his clothes and dropped them on the floor, table, or chair, and when he woke up, he found that the clothes were neatly hung on a hanger.
Also, Mu Chen often messes up the desktop when writing a diary or reading a book at the writing desk. He doesn’t deliberately clean up those books and paper, but occasionally when he comes back, he will find that the table does not know when Has become clean and tidy.
He thought it was the little robot who would help him clean up the house and help him while he was sleeping.
But then this situation began to increase, often at the stage where Mu Chen himself was unknowing, he found that some of his own items’ placement had changed.
It’s as if there is another person living in this room. This person’s life style is very different from the scattered Muchen. This person has a more regular schedule and strict living habits.
And this habit has gradually eroded Mu Chen in all aspects.
One day, Muchen found that she also habitually placed the cup on her right hand; habitually arranged or hung clothes before going to bed; habitually cleaned the desk after writing a diary and reading a book.
“What the **** is wrong with me?” Mu Chen questioned herself deep inside, with a little horror.
Then he quickly gave the answer.
That weird man really did, he gave Muchen a new life, and used this so-called “new life” to “ban” the original Muchen.
Mu Chen really became “others”. Not only did he have the appearance of another person, but also his habits.
It will not only be a habit, Mu Chen can also foresee that that person’s thinking mode and moral concept will gradually replace Mu Chen’s original.
He will become more and more like “that guy”, that guy named Amu.
He would really become Amu.
Slowly replaced by others, the original self gradually disappeared. In this regard, Mu Chen panic! He repeatedly urged himself to do something to stop it, but in fact, he did nothing.
It wasn’t Mu Chen who didn’t want to save himself, but when he realized his crisis, he seemed to have been eroded too thoroughly.
The massive foreign book translation provided by that weird man to Mu Chen had been completely read and understood without knowing it. Those profound words and knowledge gradually settled in Mu Chen’s mind.
What’s more terrible is that the man provided Mu Chen no longer with books translated into Chinese, but pure foreign language books. Mu Chen also understood … languages he had never learned at all, but he could understand.
These books influenced his thinking and personality, allowing him to disintegrate his own worldview and reshape the three perspectives.
It is only one-sided to change Mu Chen in the subtle way through the cultivation of living habits and book culture.
Mu Chen soon ushered in a major event in the following days.
He began to dream. What I dreamed of was Amu’s memory. Amu’s fragmented life was repeatedly interpreted in Muchen’s sleep.
And Mu Chen experienced A Mu’s life from the perspective of A Mu. Mu Chen was almost forced to substitute herself into that era, and into that era three hundred years ago.
When Muchen woke up from a long dream, he finally understood why the man had imprisoned his room in such a retro European pastoral style. Because this room was furnished according to the room where Amu had lived three hundred years ago.
The beds, tables and chairs are placed exactly as they were then.
This put Mu Chen into a state of extreme mental unhappiness. He could no longer judge the passage of time and the change of time. He began to wonder who he was and where he was.
At this point, the purpose of the aliens has actually been successful.
Successfully “destroyed” the original Muchen and reshaped it into a new Amu.
…
“I have to marvel!” Zhou Yue, who had never spoken, listened to the story with Mu Qin, “but this is really … a **** shocking experience!”
Muqin said: “That is to say, you have actually become a so-called ‘Amu’ in a state of semi-force and semi-obedience.”
“I was really reluctant in the early stage, and I fully accepted it in the later stage.” Mu Chen replied, “Moreover, Amu has brought me a lot of benefits. I was originally an inferior inferiority coward who would only complain. The influence of Ah Mu on my habits and character makes me have a rebirth-like experience. “
“I don’t know if this situation is good or bad, but I’m too lazy to question it.” Muchen said here, looking down at Muxing who was quietly shrinking in her arms.
Mu Xing was looking at Mu Chen, eyes wide open, staring at Mu Chen. Mu Chen paused and reached out and pinched Xiao Xing’s face.
“Look, he’s the same as me.” Mu Chen looked at Xiao Xing gently, but her hand was not very politely pinching Mu Xing’s chin, forcing him to raise his head high.
Mu Xing couldn’t resist. He put his hands on Mu Chen’s shoulders and obliquely raised his head. This posture made him a little breathless, and his eyes were soaked and looked pitiful.
“I was eroded by A Mu, but this guy was completely affected by A Xin.” Mu Chen almost wanted to kiss him, but he still restrained himself.
“I’m sorry, my brother’s actions have caused trouble for you, but unfortunately, he is also a **** in the chess game.” Mu Chen said to Mu Qin, “I think he will become like this, I am afraid it has been calculated beforehand. “
“Just like turning me into A Mu, he was also transformed into A Xin with the invisible help.”
Mu Qin’s eyes flickered, his eyes turned back and forth between Mu Chen and Mu Xing, then he whispered and said, “So that alien still fulfilled his promise to Herqiu. He is now three hundred years later. Amu and Axin ‘revived’, albeit in such a way. “
Mu Chen let go of holding Xiao Xingxing’s hand, looked at Mu Qin and said, “Yes, that’s true, but the fulfillment of this promise is a disaster for us.”
Muqin didn’t quite understand, he frowned. “What do you mean?”
“I had previously speculated that this alien’s home civilization had become extinct, and he traveled alone in the universe. And you asked me why I guess this? What is the basis?”
Mu Chen said, “I’ll give you the answer now. Do you remember what appeared in my memory … the hundreds or thousands of coffins with alien bodies? And the aliens said, ‘They are all ‘Cut of meat’. “
Muqin said: “The corpses can indeed prove that these aliens are dead, but the thousands of corpses alone do not prove that the alien mother galaxy is completely extinct?”
“You forgot, these magical aliens are ‘immortal’.” Mu Chen said, “They can temporarily save their souls in a space similar to the marginal world, wait for new containers to be made, and then attach the souls. In the container, reborn in a new posture. “
“So these aliens don’t have the concept of death, they’re not dead.” Mu Chen paused and continued, “But the guy said to me, ‘They’re dead,’ and he said, ‘Life depends on Plunder and murder other lives to continue ‘or something like that. “
Muqin realized, but this epiphany made him extremely scared, and even chilled his spine: “Can it be done, do you mean …?”
“If Amu and Axin successfully resurrected me and Muxing.” Although there is no evidence, although only speculation, Muchen can almost conclude, “That means that the souls of those aliens can also Get ‘rebirth’ in other humans. “
“He tested it with this resurrection experiment, and he wanted his population to come back to life on earth through the human body.”
“It’s impossible!” Mu Qin couldn’t believe it, and he thought it was just heaven and earth. “This statement is outrageous!”
Mu Chen sighed: “I have no other explanation. This is the only answer I can think of. Because there is no evidence, I have only told my guess to you a few.”
