Kaleidoscope of Death

Chapter 121 Labyrinth

However, this thing only appeared for an instant, and soon disappeared before the eyes of the three of them again, leaving only the silent darkness inside the door.

Gu Longming swallowed his saliva, and said: "What the hell is this?" This thing is definitely not human, no one has a pair of yellow eyes.

"I don't know." Lin Qiushi said, "I couldn't see very clearly." He looked at Ruan Nanzhu, but saw Ruan Nanzhu's brows were frowning.

Ruan Nanzhu said: "It is a humanoid creature with scales all over its body." He said, "The eyes are yellow..."

"Could it be a mermaid?" Gu Longming felt that if this was the case, he might still be able to get some comfort.

"It might be a mermaid." Ruan Nanzhu looked at him with a smile, "It's just a mermaid whose head turns into a fish."

Gu Longming shuddered at what Ruan Nanzhu said.

Although there was a gap in the door in front of them, they had no desire to continue exploring and chose to leave instead.Before leaving, Ruan Nanzhu even closed the door, he said: "If you don't know, don't touch the things inside."

Next, the three of them seized the time to check other locations on the ship, and found that the ship was actually very large, at least able to accommodate hundreds of people, and there was even a gun barrel hidden under the splint, although they did not see the existence of ammunition on the ship .

While they were walking around the ship to collect information, there was a commotion on the deck, as if something had happened to someone.

When Lin Qiushi rushed to the deck, he saw that the girl who cried the most was actually sitting on the only lifeboat of the ship. There was a man beside her, both of them were holding oars, and there were plenty of fresh water and food beside her. —Obviously, they wanted to break away from the ship and row away by themselves.

"Come back quickly, you're going to die!!" The crowd who saw the two people's actions made a noisy voice, among them, a well-meaning old hand was already reminding the two newcomers who were not afraid of death, and the old hand waved his arms at them, everyone Shouted, "You can't go to other places, you will really die, come back quickly-"

"Don't try to lie to me!" The girl screamed, and she looked at the people in the boat with hatred, "I don't want to go with you, you will definitely take me to a terrible place! I want to go by myself !"

After she finished speaking, she thought that the man would continue to persuade, but found that the atmosphere became strangely silent, and everyone was staring at the sea water under the lifeboat she was sitting on, with unspeakable fear in their eyes.

"What's the matter? What are you looking at?" The girl seemed to have noticed something, her throat moved, and she turned her head slowly with a stiff expression, looking at the sea beside her.

The sea was calm, but there seemed to be a problem with the color. A deep black enveloped the sea below her, as if there was something... lurking around her.

"Ah..." The girl shuddered and looked at her companion, "Let's go quickly."

The hand of the companion holding the oar also trembled, and he nodded at the girl in a panic, and the two of them rowed together, trying to leave this vast and boundless sea.

When the oars in their hands came into contact with the water surface, the sea water under the boat swayed into thin waves.However, at this moment, the girl heard the sound of something swimming fast, and before she had time to react, a huge fish tail jumped out of the water and hit the small boat she was in heavily.

The boat was directly smashed into pieces by the fish tail, and the two people who were still on the boat fell into the water instantly.At this time, she also saw part of the face of the big fish in front of her.

It was a big fish whose appearance was hard to describe. Its dense teeth were as sharp as needles. Its huge mouth could swallow the whole boat in one gulp. The body of the big fish showed a faint dark green color.She couldn't see how big the fish was, she only knew that she wasn't even big enough for it to fit between her teeth.

Seeing that the lifeboat was overturned like this, everyone almost held their breath.

And Lin Qiushi reacted the fastest. The moment the boat capsized, he picked up the life buoy next to him and threw it towards the girl and her friend.

The girl tumbling in the water stretched out her hand to grab the life buoy with all her strength, while Lin Qiushi quickly grabbed the rope on the life buoy and pulled it back, shouting, "I got it—"

They stood at a relatively high position, so they could see the whole picture of the fish in the sea.Judging from the shaded part, the fish was almost as big as the boat they were in, but it didn't seem to have any intention of attacking people, but just a warning to the girl who was trying to leave.

The others also reacted, threw the life buoy towards the other person, and then lowered the rope ladder, allowing the two people to climb up from the sea water.

When climbing the rope ladder, the girl was trembling from head to toe, but she managed to climb up. Once on the deck, she collapsed on the ground and couldn't say anything.

"I told you not to leave." Lin Qiushi remembered that the person who spoke seemed to be Song Yongning, a veteran with a good temper, and he said to the girl, "Hurry up and change your clothes and take a rest."

"Then, what is that?" The trembling girl thought of the huge fish, her voice was weak, "It is lurking around the boat? Will it attack the boat?"

No one knew the answer, so they could only look at her in silence.

This kind of silence made the girl even more uneasy, but she had no choice but to leave with her companions wiping away her tears.At any rate, this accident was a near-miss. It seems that this is just a lesson for novices who don't understand the rules.

Lin Qiushi glanced into the dark water again, and saw that the huge fish had disappeared.

Seeing that everything had calmed down, the people standing on the deck gradually dispersed.

"Let's go too." Ruan Nanzhu said.

Lin Qiushi nodded.

This incident seems to be just an insignificant episode, and it doesn't have much impact on this door.

At lunch time, the food was still those disgusting dead fish. The three of them didn't eat the fish, but took some noodles and mixed it with Lao Ganma.

When the others saw that they had brought the old godmother with them, they all cast envious eyes.

There was a young man who couldn't hold it back, so he came over cheekily and asked Ruan Nanzhu for a spoonful. Ruan Nanzhu took a look at him and kindly gave him a spoonful.

"Thank you, thank you." The man thanked him, "My name is Shen Juexin, please let me know if there is anything I can help you with!" His complexion was not very good, his skin was sallow, and he looked like he was seriously ill.

But Lin Qiushi remembered him and knew that he was the most seasick brother. He was lying in bed all day yesterday, and now he can insist on standing up, which is already very remarkable.

When Gu Longming was eating, his eyes kept wandering around the restaurant, as if he had thought of something, his expression was very serious.

By the end of lunch, he said he had an idea.

It happened that Lin Qiushi wanted to go to the bathroom, so he asked them to chat first, and then he would come over in a while.

The two of them found a hidden corner in the corridor of the hull and started talking in a low voice.

"Mengmeng." Gu Longming said, "Do you still remember the sacrifice of Minotaur mentioned in the clue?"

Ruan Nanzhu said: "Remember, what's wrong?"

Gu Longming said: "In the fairy tales, it is said that seven men and seven women are needed for the sacrifice. Don't we happen to have fourteen people now?" He paused for a moment, and his tone was very serious, "And I just counted the number of people in the restaurant, and it happened to be Seven men and seven women!"

Ruan Nanzhu heard Gu Longming's speculation, but was silent for a moment, and said, "Seven men and seven women... plus me?"

Gu Longming was puzzled: "Of course I will add you."

Ruan Nanzhu leaned against the railing and said nothing.

Gu Longming scratched his head: "Why don't you speak?"

Ruan Nanzhu thought for a while and said, "Come here, I'll show you a big baby." Then he waved to Gu Longming.

Gu Longming was still at a loss, just as he approached, he saw Ruan Nanzhu lift up his skirt.

"Damn it!!" Gu Longming blushed instantly, and said, "What are you doing—wait..." He sensed some kind of abnormal bulge, and his eyes were a little dull, "What is that?"

Ruan Nanzhu showed a bright smile, and leaned into Gu Longming's ear, no longer using false voice, his voice was low and full of magnetism, it belonged to a man: "I'll tell you a secret, actually I'm not Yu Linlin's girlfriend, I'm his man."

Gu Longming: "..." His expression could no longer be described as if he was struck by lightning. He was terrified, almost looking at Ruan Nanzhu with eyes that saw the end of the world.

"That's why it's not seven men and seven women." Ruan Nanzhu said, "Of course, there are women who disguise themselves as men."

Gu Longming didn't speak, he hasn't recovered from the blow yet.

Ruan Nanzhu patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, and said, "Brother, don't worry, take your time, it's always acceptable."

Gu Longming was quiet for a while, and then said bitterly: "Then he still dislikes the female high school student I pretended to be so, huh, dead ghost."

Ruan Nanzhu: "..." He looked at Gu Longming's figure, thought about the appearance of this person dressed as a girl, and thought that Chen Fei and Gu Longming might agree.

Lin Qiushi didn't know what happened to Ruan Nanzhu. When he came out of the toilet, he saw Gu Longming's expression as if he had lost his soul. He asked strangely, "What's wrong? What happened again?"

"It's nothing." Ruan Nanzhu said, "I just told him a little truth."

Lin Qiushi: "..." What happened to Gu Longming's resentful expression?

"By the way, what did you want to say just now?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"It's all right." Gu Longming said, "It's all right now."

Lin Qiushi was simply inexplicable.He was going to ask in detail, but he heard terrified screams from the restaurant on the second floor.The three of them looked at each other, then hurried over, and saw a person standing in the restaurant, circling around like a headless chicken.

"What happened?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"It's gone, it's gone, it's gone—" The man's eyes were full of fear, and he kept repeating the same sentence, "It's gone, the one next to it, the one next to it—"

"Calm down." Lin Qiushi persuaded, "What happened, tell me carefully, maybe we can help!"

The man glanced at Lin Qiushi and tremblingly said: "The house is gone, our house is gone..."

Ruan Nanzhu: "What do you mean?" He seemed to understand something, and said, "Let's go out and have a look!"

Ruan Nanzhu turned around quickly and walked out of the dining room. When they saw the surrounding rooms, they finally understood the meaning of the man's words—except for the dining room, the location of all the rooms had changed, which should have been at the bottom of the cabin The room unexpectedly appeared near the restaurant, but the room next to the restaurant has disappeared at this time, and it should have been moved to another location.

Seeing this change, two words came to Lin Qiushi's mind immediately: labyrinth.

"That's what it means." Ruan Nanzhu said, "It's really surprising."

"But why hasn't the location of the restaurant changed?" Gu Longming was a little surprised by this.

"A maze always has a starting point." Lin Qiushi sorted out his thoughts, "The restaurant should be the starting point of this maze."

"Where is the end point?" Gu Longming asked.

"The end point is naturally where the Minotaur is." Ruan Nanzhu said, "Of course, we still don't know what the Minotaur in this door refers to."

Others also rushed to the restaurant one after another. Sensitive people have already noticed the changes in the surrounding environment before entering the restaurant.

"Then where did my room go? My bag is still in the room and I haven't brought it out!" Someone panicked immediately after discovering this situation, turned around and planned to run away, "I'm going to find my bag!!" The man turned around in a hurry and ran towards the place where the bedroom was originally.

But whether he can find it is another matter.

However, in such a short period of time, the houses around me changed again. At first, a thin layer of fog formed on the door, and then the numbers on the outside of the door changed—obviously, these houses changed. The time is very short, Lin Qiushi looked at the time, and it will be changed to another room in about 5 minutes.

Fortunately, their habit is to carry things with them, otherwise they might be as flustered as the man just now.

However, the people in the room didn't seem to have any accidents, because after this change, a person came out of the room in front of them, that person also looked blank, and said, "I'm not on the first floor? He looked left and right, and found himself standing next to the restaurant, "Why did you come here?"

No one answered his words, everyone's attention was focused on the ever-changing room in front of them, and the dead silence spread in front of everyone like a plague.

Lin Qiushi looked at the changing labyrinth in front of him, but he was thinking about the content of the clues and what the Minotaur meant.

Because of this sudden change, everyone fell into a brief panic, but soon someone adjusted their emotions and continued to investigate.

At this time, the difference in mental state is revealed. At least those who can calm down earlier still have a chance.

Lin Qiushi and the others also tried to find the room they lived in before, but they couldn't find it at all.The room changes every 5 minutes, and every time the room is changed, all the rooms will leave their original positions. It is simply impossible to go through all the rooms in such a short period of time.

So most people give up exhausted.

Lin Qiushi was also a little tired from running, and stood on the deck looking at the sea to rest.

As the sky was getting darker, the sea began to be swayed by the howling sea wind, and the thick black clouds in the sky were also suppressed.

Standing beside Lin Qiushi, Gu Longming said, "Where shall we sleep at night?" Now the key given yesterday was completely useless, and he had the audacity to change it in embarrassment.

"Just find a room to sleep in." Lin Qiushi said, "It's fine if you have a bed."

When Lin Qiushi was speaking, he heard footsteps behind him. He turned his head to look, but found that the newcomer who was trying to escape in a lifeboat during the day was standing a little far away from Lin Qiushi, with hesitant eyes: "That... ...Yu Linlin..."

Lin Qiushi said: "May I ask what you want?"

She glanced at Ruan Nanzhu quickly, then retracted her gaze, and said a little unnaturally: "I have something I want to talk to you alone, can I?"

Lin Qiushi looked at Ruan Nanzhu and said, "Mengmeng?" He was respecting Ruan Nanzhu's opinion.

"Go." Ruan Nanzhu's expression was light, not nervous at all, he waved his hand casually, "Come back early."

Lin Qiushi nodded, and then followed the girl.

Gu Longming smiled beside him and said, "Aren't you worried?"

"What are you worried about?" Ruan Nanzhu asked back.

Gu Longming said: "I'm worried that other people will hook up with Yu Linlin."

Ruan Nanzhu said: "Do you think I'm prettier or she is prettier?"

Gu Longming said honestly: "You." Although you are a cute girl.

Ruan Nanzhu: "Do you think I'm better or she is better?"

Gu Longming: "You..."

Ruan Nanzhu spread his hands: "Yu Linlin is not blind, so what am I worried about?" He is not an adolescent girl who needs to find a sense of security. Everyone is an adult, so why be so naive.

Gu Longming simply gave Ruan Nanzhu a thumbs up in admiration.

Besides, Lin Qiushi and the girl walked to the other side of the deck, and she looked behind her from time to time, looking very disturbed.

Lin Qiushi was not in a hurry to ask, and the girl opened her mouth when they were far enough away from Ruan Nanzhu. She said, "Well, I'm sorry, I want to ask, are you and that girl boyfriend and girlfriend?"

Lin Qiushi nodded and admitted: "She is my lover, what's your name?"

"You can just call me Xiaomo." Xiaomo said, "It's my first time entering the door, so I can bring other people with me."

Lin Qiushi said: "Yes, what can I do for you?"

Xiaomo swallowed her saliva, she hesitated: "I...I saw your girlfriend and the man next to him..."

Lin Qiushi was taken aback, knowing that the man Xiaomo was talking about was Gu Longming: "What happened to them?"

"They have a leg!!" Xiaomo said anxiously, "It was this afternoon when I happened to pass upstairs and you weren't there at the time. I saw him lift up his skirt for that man to see with my own eyes!"

Lin Qiushi: "..." He heard what Xiaomo said, and fell into a long silence for a while.No one knows what is under Ruan Nanzhu's skirt better than him.

"I didn't lie to you!" Lin Qiushi's silence seemed to give Xiaomo an illusion, and she quickly discerned, "After he lifted his skirt, he leaned into that person's ear and talked!"

Lin Qiushi: "..." Does he have reason to believe that the playwright Ruan Nanzhu will ask Gu Longming excitedly after he lifts his skirt?

It's no wonder that Gu Longming looked so restless this afternoon, he hesitated to talk to him from the beginning to the end, presumably his spirit was hit by nuclear energy.

Xiaomo said: "Yu Linlin, don't be too sad...you are a good person." She sighed, "If you hadn't thrown the lifebuoy at me today, I might be gone." It seems that she deliberately found Lin Qiushi to talk about it, and In order to repay Lin Qiushi for saving her life during the day.

Lin Qiushi wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say, so he finally said, "I see, thank you."

Xiaomo said: "You...what should I do?"

Lin Qiushi was quiet for a moment, and then said: "What can I do, of course I choose to forgive him."

Xiaomo: "..." At the moment Lin Qiushi said this, she seemed to see Lin Qiushi's hair faintly glowing green.

"After all, I love him." To love him is to tolerate him like a showman. Lin Qiushi thanked Xiaomo, turned and left, waved his hand, not taking away a cloud.

Xiaomo's expression was distorted, and he didn't seem to slow down for a long time. Judging by his reaction, it was obvious that this was not the first time that this kind of thing had happened. In other words, Yu Linlin was already accustomed to wearing a cuckold... Xiaomo who made such a guess was in a very complicated mood. When he finally left the deck, the facial features on a face were distorted.

"What did she tell you?" Ruan Nanzhu asked Lin Qiushi as soon as he came back.

Lin Qiushi glanced at him: "You."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Me?"

Lin Qiushi: "What did you do with Gu Longming in the afternoon?"

Ruan Nanzhu and Gu Longming looked at each other, Gu Longming finally couldn't hold back, and said, "Yu Linlin, why didn't you tell me earlier."

Lin Qiushi said, "Tell you what?"

Gu Longming: "Tell you that your lover is a man."

Lin Qiushi: "Does gender matter?"

Gu Longming said blankly: "It's not important..."

Lin Qiushi: "It's the same whether you say it or not. It's going to be dark today, let's go and go to sleep." After saying this, Ruan Nanzhu took Lin Qiushi's hand, leaned on his shoulder, and pointed at him. Gu Longming smiled subtly.

Gu Longming: "..." Zhu Meng begs you to stop laughing, you are really laughing like a demon concubine who has brought disaster to the country and the people, and Lin Qiushi is the emperor who has become extremely stupid because of the demon concubine.

Lin Qiushi glanced at Ruan Nanzhu and made eye contact with him: Is it fun?

Ruan Nanzhu: It's so fun.

Lin Qiushi: Then you continue to play.

Ruan Nanzhu: I love you, my baby.

The actor Ruan Nanzhu, who has an extra audience, is obviously completely addicted to the script at this time and cannot extricate himself.
