Chapter 369(1/2)

"There is only Blizzard outside, there is no supermarket, and you have never left the house. Where did you get rice?" Lu Yang then asked Yi Yi.

Yi Yi looked at Lu Yang in a daze, and his expression seemed a little stunned. After a moment, Yi Ya slapped the table and shouted. Yi Yi quickly fed Yi Ya sweet porridge again, as if she had forgotten the question Lu Yang had just asked her.[]

Lu Yang stood up, walked to the kitchen, and looked around...

In the past few years, he has never been in the kitchen, and even during the period when Yi Yi was pregnant and gave birth to a baby, because he was worried about the abnormality here and why food was created out of thin air, so he did not want this abnormality to be broken, which would affect the happy life of him and Yi Yi and Yi Ya, so he has been restraining from coming here.

Today is his first time in the kitchen in recent years.

The kitchen was clean, which made Lu Yang easily remember Yi Yi in the past world. She always cleaned the kitchen very clean.

The production date of edible oil next to the stove was two months ago. The bag of rice in the cabinet had a label on it. It was actually bought from a supermarket near Jing'an Community. The date on the receipt next to it showed that it was bought three days ago.

In addition, some leeks were soaked in the wash basin. Yiyi believed that the pesticide residues on these green leafy vegetables were very heavy, so they had to be soaked in water, although experts said that soaking would not soak the pesticides.

There were some potatoes and tomatoes on the stool at the foot of the wall, and Lu Yang also found a pot of bean sprouts that Yi Yi was raising in the cabinet.

...

"Yi Yi, did you buy rice in the supermarket?" After breakfast, Lu Yang took the initiative to raise this topic with Yi Yi.

"Yes." Yi Yi taught Yi Ya to play with the angry birds on the iPad, while casually replied to Lu Yang.

"Yi Yi, I haven't gone out to do things. Where did you get the money for buying rice?" Lu Yang then asked Yi Yi a question.

Yi Yi looked up at Lu Yang, her eyes a little confused. After a while, she lowered her head and went to play with Yi Ya on her iPad, as if she hadn't heard Lu Yang's questioning.

"Yi Yi, do you still remember the 'cruel truth' you told me?" Lu Yang reached out and snatched the iPad from Yi Yi and Yi Ya's hands, and forced her to ask.

A trace of fear flashed in Yi Yi's eyes, but it was only a flash. After a moment, her expression returned to normal and reached out to try to get her iPad back from Lu Yang's hand.

"Yi Yi, do you know that our life is not normal now, right?" Lu Yang held Yi Yi's iPad and never let go, staring into her eyes.

"Yangyang, what's wrong with you?" Yi Yi reached out and mocked Lu Yang's cheek.

"Yiya is your sister, not your daughter! Look at her, she is three years old! She looks neither like you nor like me, Yiyi! You must know something, don't be afraid, tell me, I will naturally have a way to deal with it!" Lu Yang Suoxing said all the words.

"Yangyang, are you crazy?" Yi Yi looked at Lu Yang in surprise.

Xiao Yiya couldn't play with the Angry Birds, and when she heard Lu Yang speak so loudly, she seemed to be frightened, and she started crying with a 'Wow!'

"Am I crazy?" Lu Yang smiled bitterly and quickly returned the iPad to Xiao Yiya.

...

Curiosity is like a seed. Once planted, it will continue to take root and sprout, and will constantly scratch and grasp people's hearts.

After Lu Yang found that his questioning of Yi Yi had no serious consequences, he became more and more mihuo about what "truth" was hidden behind all this.

On weekdays, I still saw the frozen corpse in the bathroom. I think after so many years, Lu Yang should have been dead. However, he is still alive now, and all this seems to be unreasonable.

Although the biggest rule in the weird realm is that there are no rules, Lu Yang is still constantly pursuing reason, wanting to find a reasonable answer and explanation for everything, even if there are no rules.

So, tonight, after Yiyi and Yiya were asleep, Lu Yang got up and sat alone on the broken sofa, holding a beer stolen from the kitchen, drinking while quietly waiting for the sound of hitting the door.

He decided that when the sound of impacting the door sounded tonight, he would open the door no matter what, and find out what was impacting the door outside.

Looking at the time, the time when the impact of the door every night was getting closer and closer, Lu Yang felt inexplicably nervous.

For humans, the greatest fear and danger is unknown.

Any danger you have experienced can be found by following the rules you have experienced before, and you will no longer be afraid.

Only unknown dangers are the most dangerous and scary, because you don’t know what will happen, so you don’t know how to prevent it.

What if...when... after opening the door, some weird monsters that shouldn't have been rushed in and hurt Yiyi and Yiya?

Lu Yang suddenly hesitated again.

Even if Lu Yang thinks that his wife Yi Yi is virtual, his daughter Yi Ya is not reliable. However, in the past few years of living with them, they have become relatives with Lu Yang's blood thicker than water. Even if they are not real, this kind of family affection that is immersed in his bone marrow is already a heavy burden in Lu Yang's life.

But, should we continue to live like this?

What's wrong with living like this?

A few years ago, when I was just gathered here with Yi Yi, Lu Yang would not hesitate to choose not to open the door, so as not to disappear again.

However, over the past few years, the sound of the door hitting the door has appeared day after day, and has been challenging Lu Yang's nerves, taking root in his heart, and now it has almost grown into a strong tree. It is almost impossible for Lu Yang to forcibly suppress it.

Moreover, Lu Yang felt that he had reached the limit of his patience when he was at home for the past five years. If he continued to live like this, he would definitely go crazy.

So, despite a lot of worries, Lu Yang still decided to open the door immediately after the sound of hitting the door tonight.

When Lu Yang poured the last drop of beer from the beer can into his mouth, the sound of impact outside the door rang out on time just like in the past more than a thousand late nights.

Lu Yang's body trembled involuntarily. He crunched the empty can in his hand with a creaking sound, suddenly got up from the broken sofa, rushed to the door and stretched out his hand to open the door.

...

Lu Yang lived here for five years, and there were blizzards outside for five years. However, the door of the cottage was not flooded by snow, which can only be said to be a miracle. Or, these snows are not snow in the real world at all, so the thickness has never changed.

Outside the door, there was nothing but a storm and snow.

Before Lu Yang opened the door, he thought that there might be nothing outside, but after looking carefully and convinced that there was nothing outside, he felt a little disappointed.

Could it be that some monsters appeared outside and even rushed in to hurt Yiyi and Yiya, so that he would be satisfied?

Lu Yang shook his head vigorously.

He knew that the deepest reason for his inner disappointment was that he had endured the limit in the past five years of staying at home, so he was longing for some change.

However, Lu Yang also knew that change would cost a price, and the price might be to face the "cruel truth".

Is the memory doll really the "cruel truth"? Lu Yang has doubted this problem in the past five years.

Yi Yi, who really lived with him, tried every means to show up after being erased by the strange domain, rescued him once outside Qingyuan Community, and stopped him from looking for the truth in the xxx bureau...

Where is that Yiyi now?

Although this Yi Yi in Xueyuan rented a house is almost no different from that Yi Yi, during the five years she has lived with her, Lu Yang clearly felt that she was not a real human at all. It is very likely that she was just a virtual character in Lu Yang's fantasy, just like those people who came out of Zhou Ling's thoughts in Jinda's strange realm.

These suspicions always made Lu Yang very painful. Five years ago, he learned that he was probably just a memory doll. Although the pain was almost cured in these five years, the seeds of truth kept taking root in his heart, making him unable to sleep or eat.

He knew that he could not give up just like that, and give up his investigation of the truth, unless he died forever.

...

Since Lu Yang opened the door when the sound of hitting the door that night, the night has become extremely quiet, and nothing has hit the door late at night.

Yi Yi was very calm about this, just as she had never heard the sound of hitting the door before.

However, the little Yiya sometimes asked her father curiously why there was no sound of hitting the door at night... For her young, this sound has been with her for three years and has become a part of her little spiritual world.

However, the disappearance of the sound of hitting the door was just one of the changes in Lu Yang's life after opening the door late at night. Speaking of the most significant change in his life, the third day after he opened the door.

In fact, Lu Yang discovered some bad signs two days ago, but he had not asked Yi Yi, and Yi Yi spoke by himself on the morning of the third day.

"There is almost no rice at home and the vegetables are finished. If you can't buy anything, Xiaoya will starve to death." On the morning of the third day, Yi Yi brought it out to Lu Yang when feeding Yiya rice porridge.

"There is no rice? Why don't you buy it in the supermarket?" Lu Yang asked Yi Yi. Lu Yang was not very clear about the source of the food that had been with his family for five years. He just heard Yi Yi have said before that she bought these things from the supermarket.

"I...I..." Yi Yi's expression suddenly became a little confused.

Lu Yang looked at Yi Yi, who had a confused expression and felt a little sad.

This Yi Yi often acts like a robot that has been entered into part of the Yi Yi's memory before. When she encounters a question she cannot answer, her expression becomes confused. Then, after a while, she will choose to ignore this question.

Very programmatic.

It would be fine if she was just a machine, but she was a living person, a person who had lived with Lu Yang for five years.

Lu Yang knew that she was not a machine, and she had flesh and blood in her body, without chips or anything like that...

If we insist on using modern technology, then she should be a clone transplanted with some of Yiyi's memories.

Even if Lu Yang knew that she was not the real Yi Yi, the past five years were enough to make him unable to give up his feelings for her, even if she was just a modified machine or a clone with memory transplanted.

Today, after a moment of confusion, Yi Yi seemed to have not chosen to ignore the problem just now. Her expression still looked very melancholy, and she looked at Xiao Yiya, who was feeding rice porridge with a spoon.

Lu Yang got up and walked into the kitchen, searched around, and found that there were only less than two kilograms of rice left in the rice bag, only half a kilogram of beans left in the soybean bag, and the plastic pot for cooking oil was basically the bottom. There were only half a broken potato and a wilted tomato left on the ground. All other food was basically consumed in the past two days.

In other words, since the sound of hitting the door that night, Lu Yang reached out and opened the door, and the strange world stopped supplying food to his family.

Sure enough, change comes at a price.

Without food, it will be a serious problem in this snowy field.

A question of life and death.

However, this seems to be the change that Lu Yang had expected before.

Because he had to look for food, and looking for food meant that he had to leave the rented house and go out to explore the snow field outside. Before that, he could not make up this decision.

Regardless of whether the trial of the advanced wizard is over or whether his body is dead, he must go out, and he is forced to go out, because if he doesn't go out, the family will starve to death here alive.

...

When Xiao Yiya heard that Lu Yang was going out to find food, she seemed very happy and even wanted to go and see the outside world with Lu Yang. Of course, she was rejected by Lu Yang.

Yi Yi seemed extremely frightened and worried, not knowing what the outside world looked like in her mind, but judging from her reaction, it is very likely that she had never really gone out of the rented house.

Those so-called supermarket shopping and other plots are probably just memories imposed on her by Weiyu. Lu Yang has long been accustomed to the fact that Weiyu erases or changes the memories.

Before Lu Yang left, Yi Yi asked him to come back before dark, and stuffed half a pound of soybeans into his pocket, saying that if he was hungry outside, he could use this to satisfy his hunger. Lu Yang refused to take it and rushed out of the rented house door.
