Chapter 417 Cause and Effect

Chapter 417 Cause and Effect
"white……"

Before he finished speaking, Song Que saw the man standing next to Bai Yanliang, and his expression changed slightly.

This person is none other than Bai Yanren whom I had seen in the Moon Gate on the Seabed!
Thinking about what the other party had said, he knew that perhaps today would not be a good day.

"You said, this is not the trolley problem, what is your answer?"

Song Que didn't look at Bai Yanren again, but turned his gaze to Bai Yanliang.

Bai Yanliang stared at him, his eyes seemed to hide something. Song Que seemed to understand, but he heard Bai Yanliang say: "Your lifeboat can't hold so many people. From the beginning, you can only save two people."

"We, too."

Song Que was stunned by this sentence. He asked the old housekeeper to go down and arrange the rescue for the time being, and asked, "What do you mean we are the same?"

Bai Yanliang turned his head and looked around: "He is my brother. What we are about to face is a world-destroying crisis."

"In this crisis, we don't have the ability to save the entire world, let alone protect everyone, but... we also have a ship that can carry a few people and help them escape this crisis."

"Song Que, you are the one I chose."

Bai Yanliang looked at him.

Song Que turned his head to look at his arm. Logically, his arm should have been completely broken in the last Wu Ji incident, but with the help of that woman, his body actually went against common sense and recovered.

Not healing, not repairing, but...restoring.

It was as if time had gone back for that arm, and it was back to normal as before.

This made Song Que realize more deeply that there had indeed appeared in this world a group of "new humans" who possessed powers that did not belong to humans.

What's even more ridiculous is that according to the other party, she was also one of them, and was one of those people who possessed power earlier than her.

She called the power she possessed - the mind's eye.

It doesn't mean to play tricks, but that one can use a vision similar to "telepathy" to see more essential things. Being able to see in the dark is just the basics, he can even directly see the "souls" of humans.

But at this moment, Song Que smiled and said, "In fact, for quite a long time, I thought you were a ghost."

He looked at Bai Yanliang.

"Because I can't see any outline of a human soul in your body. In other words... you seem to be an empty shell without a soul."

Song Que's voice was still full of confusion.

"But later, I saw with my own eyes something similar to a [soul] being born from your body... right after Qi Nian died."

Song Que stared at him and said, "You have thoughts and a soul, but I cannot see your soul with my eyes. It was not until some time ago that I figured out the reason."

"Bai Yanliang..."

Song Que's gaze lingered between the two brothers.

"You were not soulless before, it's just that my eyes can't see it... What I can see is the human soul. That body that looks like an empty shell in my eyes is not soulless, it's just... it's completely transparent. After Qi Nian died, a cluster of red was born in it. I am very familiar with this red, it is the color of the human soul..."

"And today, at this moment, you who are standing in front of me..."

Against the backdrop of the bloody storm outside the window, Song Que's voice seemed to be ready to shock at any time.

"On the contrary..."

The confusion in his voice seemed real.

"Inside your body, inside your transparent and chaotic soul, there is a cluster of astonishing red, like a leaping flame..."

"And your brother, Mr. Bai Yanren, has a red soul body that is empty in the middle."

"You... one of you is turning into a human, and the other one, what are you turning into?"

Song Que's questioning voice echoed in the ears of the two brothers.

————Under the cave.

The sudden casualties made everyone silent.

However, this cannot stop the exploration.

The team continued to move downwards, but the further they went, the more herbs they saw around the walls that they had never seen before.

Their colors are also completely different from what they should be in nature.

It was a... gray and shabby color.

Ren Wudao was mixed in the crowd. This was also his first time to come to this place.

However, he had one more piece of information than anyone else present.

That is... this cave has existed for a long time.

Or it should be said that this cave was actually dug by Dr. Zhou Tian.

That was a story told by Zhou Tian...

That was twenty years ago.

----

"Doctor, do you want to continue digging?"

The other members of the archaeological team all looked up at Zhou Tian.

Zhou Tian nodded without any hesitation.

The excavation continues.

During this period, the biggest news in Yecheng was that the construction team digging the subway tunnel dug up some strange things.

To put it simply... there are traces of human creations in the central underground of Ye City, which are some spiral stairs.

Construction could definitely not continue in this situation, and the city immediately formed an expert group to check it out. However, what was suspicious was that although these steps were indeed not excavated in modern times, it was even less likely that they were excavated in ancient times.

Because the distance, size, and amplitude between each step are exactly the same!
Even if modern tools are used to chisel, it would still be a huge project.

In ancient times when everything depended on human power, none of the experts present believed that it was possible to carve out a facility where every step was exactly the same.

This doesn't make sense.

So the construction was stopped, and there was a lot of interest from all parties about the stairs, and the place where the stairs extended downwards, as to what was hidden and from which era it originated.

Zhou Tian only joined in completely after he discovered some herbs that had never been found in the world.

He recognized at a glance that this was not something that should exist in the world, because these "plants" had no energy source at all!

Zhou Tian had no idea how they grew. They didn't carry out photosynthesis, absorb nutrients from the soil, or even exchange substances with the rest of the world.

Things like this... can only be "plants" from another world.

Although the guess is unbelievable, it is the only answer.

Zhou Tian had already confirmed it after confirming that those plants did not exchange any materials with the world.

There is definitely "another world" going down these stairs.

Hence, the current scene came into being.

The reason why other members of the archaeological team came to ask him whether to continue digging was because everyone, including Zhou Tian, ​​had hallucinations.

As they dug deeper and deeper, almost everyone saw a... towering tree.
