Kaleidoscope of Death

Chapter 12 The Key to the Door

The chewing sound lasted for a long time, as if every bone was carefully chewed. The sound of cracking and cracking the bones caused physiological discomfort, but everyone endured it in silence.

Finally, when the morning light was about to appear in the sky, the chewing sound disappeared, and at the same time, the woman who had been silently staring at everyone outside the wall disappeared together.

I don't know if it was Lin Qiushi's illusion, but he always felt that before the woman disappeared, he heard a slight hiccup... as if something was full.

It was finally dawn, and Lin Qiushi, who had been sitting in the yard all night, seemed like a lifetime ago, he said, "Is it all over?"

Ruan Baijie was noncommittal and only said maybe.

The tree was cut down, the temple was worshipped, the well was filled, and the rest was to go to the carpenter to get the coffin.

Everyone's faces were exhausted, but under the exhaustion, there was a little excitement hidden.This should be the last step. As long as they get the key and find the iron door, they can leave this terrifying world.

Everyone thought so, and even the pace of walking became a lot lighter.

The village during the day is not as spooky as it is at night, it seems to be just an ordinary small mountain village, where a group of simple villagers live, without ghosts and ghosts, and without death.

When they went to the carpenter, they happened to pass by the place where Wang Xiaoyi died, but Lin Qiushi saw nothing there.There was only white snow left on the ground, and nothing that happened last night left any traces here.

"Was her body eaten?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"It should be." Ruan Baijie said, "That thing has quite a big appetite."

When they arrived at the carpenter's house, they saw the carpenter sitting at the door smoking slowly. Lin Qiushi came first, so he greeted him and said, "Old man, we are here to fetch the coffin."

The carpenter didn't speak, and pointed to the room casually.

Everyone entered the room one by one and saw a beautiful red coffin standing in a small room.This coffin is very beautiful, well-made, and every detail is tightly stitched. It doesn't look like a product that was rushed in a short time.

Lin Qiushi always felt that the paint on the coffin was a bit strange. He reached out and touched it, and found that the paint had a fishy smell and felt a little slippery.

Ruan Baijie reacted much faster than him, and blurted out: "It must be soaked in blood."

"It should be." Xiong Qi said, "There is no such thing as paint."

"Forget it, don't care what it is soaked in, let's take it home first." Ruan Baijie said, "Let's go."

Originally, Lin Qiushi thought that the coffin should be heavy, but who knew that it was really light when lifted, and two people could easily carry it.

Cheng Wen's current state is not good at all, only Lin Qiushi and Xiong Qi are left in the whole team capable of working hard.The two of them lifted the coffin one by one and headed towards the residence.

"What should we do next?" Lin Qiushi asked while carrying the coffin.

"Let's go back and see if there is anything in the coffin." Ruan Baijie said, "I guess the key is inside the coffin. Once the key is taken out, everything will be easy to handle."

Lin Qiushi silently hoped so.

After arriving home, Cheng Wen, who had been knocked out, woke up. He sat in the hall with a dull expression. He didn't say hello to everyone who came back with the coffin. His expression looked like he was mentally retarded.

Seeing this, Lin Qiushi was a little worried, and said in a low voice, "I won't make him stupid, will I?"

Ruan Baijie: "Well..."

Lin Qiushi: "Damn it, I just hit a dozen..."

Ruan Baijie comforted him: "If you are stupid, you are stupid. Anyway, no one will ask you to be responsible, and a fool is not afraid of ghosts. Didn't this just happen to help him? You are his benefactor!"

Lin Qiushi: "..." Ruan Baijie, why are you so skilled.

Because of Cheng Wen's performance yesterday, everyone didn't want to talk to him, Xiong Qi and Xiao Ke just pretended not to see him.

"Open the coffin." Xiong Qi announced after putting down the coffin.

"Okay." Lin Qiushi nodded, and Xiong Qi and Xiong Qi lifted one side, and then they lifted the lid of the coffin with force.

With a creak, the lid of the coffin was opened, and a damp smell of wood rushed over.Xiao Ke was the most nervous. As soon as she saw the lid open, she quickly poked her head in to see if there was anything they wanted inside the coffin.

"Found it!!!! The key!!!" The next moment, Xiao Ke's ecstatic voice came, and she almost cried with joy, and she was extremely emotional, "There is really, there is really!!"

Lin Qiushi took a look and found that there was an old bronze key in Xiao Ke's hand. The shape of the key was simple and simple, revealing the breath of time.The handle of the key was stained with red liquid. If it was before, Lin Qiushi would think it was paint or something, but now he thinks that smear of red is human blood.

"We have the key, we have the key!!" Xiao Ke held the key, tears streaming down his face, and it seemed that his emotions were on the verge of collapse.

It seemed that although she was very calm on weekdays, she was almost unable to bear the pressure of death after all.

"The door should have come out, so we can start looking for it." Xiong Qi said with a tired tone, "We must hurry up, there are not many people left."

"Where does the general door appear?" Lin Qiushi has no experience in this area.

"It's usually near where we live, and it's not particularly difficult to find." Xiong Qi said, "But I haven't experienced the world of thirteen people, so... I don't know."

"Okay." Lin Qiushi looked at the key in Xiao Ke's hand, thinking that at least he found the key.

Ruan Baijie didn't show too much excitement, she said: "What about the key, who will keep the key, I don't worry about letting her come here."

Xiao Ke, who was questioned, was full of anger: "What do you mean? What do you mean you are worried? Don't worry if you keep us safe?"

Ruan Baijie smiled but said, "This is not just about me. If you lose the key, we will all die inside the door. Are you sure you want to keep it? Think it through."

Xiao Ke's face turned blue and then pale, as if he was about to say something, Xiong Qi pressed her shoulder: "Qiu Shi, you take care of it."

Lin Qiushi was taken aback, he didn't expect this matter to fall on him suddenly, he was about to decline, but Ruan Baijie agreed, and leaned into Lin Qiushi's ear and whispered: "You just take it."

Lin Qiushi frowned: "But it's my first time entering the door, so I don't have much experience..."

"It's okay." Xiong Qi said, "We are all very assured of you."

"Okay." Lin Qiushi had no choice but to agree.

After he reached out to take the key, he observed it carefully, and felt that if he didn't say anything, it was just an ordinary copper key to him.

Xiong Qi suggested that everyone should go to eat something after being tired all night, and then discuss the location of the door. Lin Qiushi agreed.

So Xiong Qi and Xiao Ke went to the kitchen to cook, while Lin Qiushi and Ruan Baijie sat in the living room and watched over Cheng Wen.

"Why did they give me the key?" Lin Qiushi was still a little puzzled.

"Because this key is not a good thing." Ruan Baijie said, "People who hold it will die very quickly." She laughed, stretched out a finger and tapped Lin Qiushi's forehead, "Of course, you do not worry."

Lin Qiushi said, "Huh?"

Ruan Baijie suddenly lowered her head, lightly bit Lin Qiushi's ear, and whispered: "I found the door."

Lin Qiushi's eyes widened instantly: "What?"

Ruan Baijie: "Hush, keep your voice down."

Lin Qiushi hurriedly shut up, and pressed his voice: "What did you say? Have you found the door?"

"That's right." Ruan Baijie smiled, she seemed to be very interested in Lin Qiushi's ears, she scratched and stroked Lin Qiushi's ears with her fingers, making Lin Qiushi itchy, "Do you want to know where it is?"

If this was a normal day, all Lin Qiushi's attention would have to be on Ruan Baijie's hands playing with his ears, but what Ruan Baijie said at this time was too surprising, and he didn't have time to think too much, "You know where you are, why don't you say it?" ……what??"

There was a sudden sharp pain in the earlobe, Lin Qiushi gasped, "What are you doing?" He stretched out his hand to touch it, only to find that Ruan Baijie had forcibly stuck a stud on his right ear.

"It's okay." Ruan Baijie still had an innocent face, "It's just that you should look good wearing these earrings."

Lin Qiushi was shocked when he touched the earrings. For a while, he didn't know whether to ask about the door or the earrings. Ruan Baijie didn't give him a chance to respond, and continued: "The door is very close to us. I can go back."

"Where are Xiao Ke and Xiong Qi?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"They?" Ruan Baijie seemed to have a bad impression of these two people, "It depends on my mood."

Lin Qiushi said: "If you can... take them back together." Although Xiao Ke has a bad temper, Xiong Qi's attitude towards them is still good, and they have experienced so much together.

"You." Ruan Baijie said, "You are just too soft-hearted." She smiled, "But I like you like this."

Lin Qiushi blushed inexplicably when he was told this, and he said, "Stop teasing me."

Ruan Baijie just smiled and said nothing.

Interrupted by Ruan Baijie, Lin Qiushi directly forgot about asking about the earrings, and put all his thoughts into the evening.It wasn't until Xiong Qi and the others came back and asked him why there was something on his ear that he suddenly realized that Ruan Baijie had fooled him again.

"Isn't it good-looking?" Ruan Baijie said, "Why do you dislike me, do you have another woman?"

Lin Qiushi: "...don't make trouble for no reason."

Ruan Baijie turned into a groaning monster: "You actually said that I was making trouble for no reason, you are too much, blah blah."

Lin Qiushi, who had never had a girlfriend, showed a desperate expression.

The author has something to say: Ruan Baijie: Mark your own things before talking about others.

Lin Qiushi was bewildered: something, what is it?

Ruan Baijie: Good things to eat
