Kaleidoscope of Death

Ruan Nanzhu slept in the hospital for a whole day, and only woke up the next day.

During this period, Lin Qiushi stayed by his side, worrying about his accident.Several people in the villa came to the hospital and left the ward after learning that Ruan Nanzhu was fine.

When Ruan Nanzhu woke up, Lin Qiushi was watching the news on his mobile phone.I don’t know if it’s his illusion or what. There have been a lot of accidents in the past two days, and the deaths were all kinds of strange. There were also a few people who took the elevator in the fire and the elevator got stuck in the air, and all three people inside were burned to death.

Lin Qiushi looked up at Ruan Nanzhu after reading the news, but found that he was already awake, but he neither spoke nor moved after waking up, just silently looking at the ceiling above his head.

"Nanzhu!" Seeing this, Lin Qiushi was very worried about his state, and called out his name cautiously.

Ruan Nanzhu didn't speak, his eyes slowly moved to Lin Qiushi's body, and there was an emotion that Lin Qiushi couldn't understand in those black eyes.

"Are you thirsty?" Seeing that his lips were dry, Lin Qiushi stepped forward to help him up, and then handed a cup filled with warm water to his mouth, "The doctor said that there is nothing wrong with your body, but you are too tired. Just rest for a few days."

Ruan Nanzhu swallowed the water one by one, closed his eyes again, and said, "Got it."

Lin Qiushi said: "Are you hungry? I'll get you a bowl of porridge."

"Not hungry." Ruan Nanzhu said, "You are sitting next to me, where is my phone?"

Lin Qiushi handed him Ruan Nanzhu's mobile phone and saw him dial the number.Not knowing what was said on the other end of the phone, Ruan Nanzhu hummed twice and then hung up casually.

"The reminder of Cheng Qianli's fifth door came out." Ruan Nanzhu said, "You go in with him in five days."

"Okay." Lin Qiushi was willing to obey Ruan Nanzhu's arrangement.

"I'll check the situation here, and bring the two of you with me if possible." Ruan Nanzhu half-closed his eyes, "But I'm not sure about the situation yet, try my best."

"You don't have to be too forceful." Lin Qiushi said, "I can do it alone."

Ruan Nanzhu shook his head, but did not answer.

It was only later that Lin Qiushi found out that this was Ruan Nanzhu's tenth door, and the man who entered the door with him was a man from another organization with the same tenth door.The relationship between the two is good, but only Ruan Nanzhu left after coming out of the tenth door.

"In the end, I survived with a woman I didn't know." After returning to the villa, Ruan Nanzhu succinctly described what happened inside the door, "That woman is definitely not an ordinary person."

Those who can live to the tenth door, there will be no idlers.

"Cheng Qianli, have you received your reminder?" Ruan Nanzhu seemed unwilling to talk about this door and changed the subject.

"I got it." Cheng Qianli said, "I got it the night you passed out, brother Ruan." He took out a note from his pocket, "Nong."

Ruan Nanzhu read the words on the note, and then handed the note to Lin Qiushi who was sitting next to him: "Look, this is your next door."

"Oh." Lin Qiushi took it over, saw three words written on the note, and sister drummed.

"What is this?" Lin Qiushi didn't understand the meaning of the note, "Is it a musical instrument?"

"No, it's the title of a song." Cheng Qianli had roughly looked up the meaning of the note, "The main idea of ​​the lyrics is that a younger sister is looking for her older sister..."

"Just like that?" Ruan Nanzhu asked.

Cheng Qianli said: "There must be other meanings." He scratched his head in embarrassment, and smiled, "Isn't it too late to check?"

Cheng Yixie was beside him and said indifferently: "It's fine if you can be so calm when you die."

Cheng Qianli: "Wow, what are you talking about, isn't it still a few days away!"

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Ruan Nanzhu made a stop gesture: "Hurry up and find out for me, the time you enter the door is not too stable now, don't make any trouble."

"Okay." Cheng Qianli responded obediently.

It's okay not to check, but when he found out the specific hidden meaning of the lyrics, Lin Qiushi felt a chill down his back.

The first few lines of Ajie Drum are:

My elder sister can't speak since she was a child, she left home when I can remember

Since then I have thought about it every day

Sister

I always thought that my sister was so big

I suddenly understood her

Since then, I have been looking for it every day

Sister

An old man is sitting on the pile of mani

repeating a word over and over

Um Om Well Nee Padme Moo

At first glance, this is just a story about a younger sister looking for a dumb older sister, but after checking the background of the story, it turns out that this song is about a human skin drum.

A long time ago, a certain religion had the custom of peeling off the skins of virgins and using them as drumheads to make drums. It is said that the sound of such drums can connect life and death and transcend reincarnation.

As for the dumb sister in the lyrics, it is said that she was made into a drum voluntarily, but there are different opinions on whether it was voluntary.

"The human skin must choose a girl who has never experienced love. This is the purest girl. It would be even better if she is dumb, because the dumb has never lied, and her soul has not been polluted." Cheng Qianli read the content of the search: "And it must be skinned alive, the sound of such a human skin drum is the best..." He shuddered after reading, "Fortunately, this is a society ruled by law."

Sometimes things that people can do are always scarier than ghosts.

Lin Qiushi said, "The creator of this song said that when he was traveling, he met a younger sister who was looking for her older sister. The younger sister didn't know why her older sister disappeared suddenly, until she heard an om om mani padme moo, and Drumming from the sky."

Ruan Nanzhu listened quietly, noncommittal.His complexion is actually not very good-looking now. Although the doctor said that there is no serious problem, the mental damage is hard to quantify.

"I'll accompany them in this time." Cheng Yixie who was sitting next to him suddenly said, "Take a break."

Ruan Nanzhu said: "Are you going?"

Cheng Yixie nodded. Although he looked about the same age as Cheng Qianli, his temperament was much more stable than Cheng Qianli.He doesn't look like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy at all. To some extent, he and Ruan Nanzhu look a little similar at first glance.

"I'll think about it." Ruan Nanzhu glanced at Lin Qiushi, but didn't agree directly.

Cheng Yixie frowned slightly, as if he didn't understand Ruan Nanzhu's hesitation, but he didn't say anything, so he agreed.

Fortunately, although Ruan Nanzhu's condition is not good, he came out of the dangerous door after all.

In the evening, everyone planned to have a good celebration. Lu Yanxue cooked a table of delicious dishes. Lin Qiushi helped by the side, and found that Lu Yanxue's cooking skills were amazing.After asking, I found out that Lu Yanxue used to run a private kitchen, but she closed the shop and moved into a villa after encountering problems with the door.

"Actually, my cooking skills are not the best." Lu Yanxue said, "Zhang Jiao's cooking skills are better than mine, but he is not here during this time, and you will be lucky when he comes back, but you are quite skilled. , how often do you cook?"

"Live alone." Lin Qiushi bowed his head to chop vegetables, "You must know how to cook something."

The food was served, and a few bottles of good wine were opened. The atmosphere at the dinner table was very relaxed. Everyone was talking and laughing, and there was no hidden gloom at all.

Lin Qiushi also drank two cups, but he didn't touch them too much. He had something on his mind and was afraid of getting drunk.

Ruan Nanzhu's alcohol capacity is quite good, and he finished a whole bottle of red wine by himself.

After drinking and eating, everyone dispersed, and Lin Qiushi also returned to his room. He took a hot bath after returning, and when he came out, he saw Ruan Nanzhu sitting on his bed waiting for him.

"Nan Zhu, what's the matter?" Lin Qiushi walked over while wiping his hair.

"I need you." Ruan Nanzhu said surprisingly.

Lin Qiushi was stunned when he heard this sentence: "What... mean?"

"Literally." Ruan Nanzhu said, "You can't die."

These words sound a little ambiguous at first glance, but as a straight man of steel, Lin Qiushi didn't think much about it at all. He said, "Can you make it more clear?"

Ruan Nanzhu only said one sentence at the end, he said: "Some people are born for the door."

After he finished speaking, he left, leaving Lin Qiushi with a dazed face.

Lin Qiushi always felt that there was some change in Ruan Nanzhu who came out of the tenth door, but for a while, he couldn't figure out what the change was.

After resting for a few days, Ruan Nanzhu's condition gradually recovered.

Lin Qiushi knew that he was about to face his third door in a few days, so he had been actively preparing for it.

It's preparation work, but it's actually watching horror movies with Cheng Qianli at night.

"Is this really useful?" Lin Qiushi doubted it.

"It's useful, it's useful. We won't be afraid if we see too much." Cheng Qianli still held a bag of potato chips in his arms.

"Don't we need to look at that clue again..." Lin Qiushi still felt unreliable.

"Now the door is simple, and there are only so many clues, and there is nothing to check." Cheng Qianli said, "Oh, look, the female ghost has come out."

When the two of them were watching TV, Toast lay on the cushion next to him and secretly poked at Lizi, who was lying on the corner of the sofa, wagging his tail leisurely.

When Yi Manman passed by, he saw Lin Qiushi watching TV with Cheng Qianli, and heaved a long sigh.

Lin Qiushi was still thinking about why Yi Manman sighed at first, but after 3 minutes, he knew the answer—Cheng Qianli was especially afraid of ghosts.

As soon as the ghost came out, he started screaming like a castrated screaming chicken, and tried to get into the crack of the sofa.

Lin Qiushi was startled: "Are you so scared?"

Cheng Qianli trembled: "Aren't you afraid?"

Lin Qiushi: "Although I'm afraid, I'm not as afraid as you are, can you stop holding my arm..." He felt that he was about to be cut off by Cheng Qianli.

Cheng Qianli let go of Lin Qiushi, and was about to turn around to hug Lizi, but Lin Qiushi quickly stopped him and said, "You should hug me."

Cheng Qianli was moved and said, "You are such a good person."

Lin Qiushi: "..." I'm afraid I'll lose my cat if I don't be this good person.

As a result, before the last horror movie was finished, the whole building was filled with Cheng Qianli's ghost screams, Lin Qiushi's back was already numb, and his first reaction when he saw a ghost was to stay away from Cheng Qianli.

The cry was so miserable that it attracted everyone who was going to sleep down.

"What do you call it? Does Cheng Qianli deserve a beating? He screamed in the middle of the night, crying and howling." Lu Yanxue, with a green mask on her face, startled both Cheng Qianli and Lin Qiushi when she came down the stairs.

"I'm afraid." Cheng Qianli said.

"You're afraid you'll still be watching ghost movies." Lu Yanxue said, "If you call it like this, you'll scare me to death first if I'm a ghost."

Cheng Qianli: "But don't look at me and I will enter the door in two days."

Lu Yanxue: "Then wait until you enter the door before calling. Anyway, no one else can hear you at that time, so you call for others."

Cheng Qianli: "No, I'm going to tell you—ahhhhh!"

Lu Yanxue: "Cheng Yixie, take care of your brat brother, he's about to turn the world upside down!!"

Cheng Qianli: "..."

Under Lu Yanxue's call, Cheng Yixie came late. He was wearing pajamas, and said to Cheng Qianli with a blank face: "If you say another word out of your mouth tonight, you can go in by yourself by the next door." .”

Cheng Qianli: "..."

Cheng Yixie turned to look at Lin Qiushi: "Good night."

Lin Qiushi couldn't laugh or cry: "Good night."

One sentence solved the screaming chicken. Before Lu Yanxue left, she told Lin Qiushi not to watch horror movies with Cheng Qianli next time.

Lin Qiushi nodded heavily, saying that there will never be a next time.

Poor Cheng Qianli showed a resentful expression beside him, like a poor wife who was betrayed by her husband.

After Lu Yanxue left, Lin Qiushi and Cheng Qianli said a few words, but Cheng Qianli didn't dare to speak, so he could only take out his mobile phone and type.

Lin Qiushi: "Are you really silent? Isn't your brother joking?"

Cheng Qianli typed: He never jokes.

Lin Qiushi: "...Then I'll go to bed too, good night?"

Cheng Qianli typed: Good night.

Only then was Lin Qiushi able to escape, and hurried back to sleep.

The next morning, Chen Fei asked, did Cheng Qianli watch a horror movie yesterday?Who is so free to accompany him to do this.

Lin Qiushi pointed at himself embarrassingly.

Chen Fei was silent for three seconds: "I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you about this. In fact, everyone in our villa has some quirks, and you will know it after getting along for a long time."

Quirks?Lin Qiushi's first reaction was to glance at Ruan Nanzhu.

As a result, his eyes betrayed his thoughts, and Cheng Qianli said in an inaudible voice beside him; "Isn't it a quirk to like to wear women's clothes?"

Lin Qiushi: "..." He couldn't refute? ? ?

Ruan Nanzhu suddenly stopped his chopsticks: "Cheng Qianli."

Cheng Qianli: "Ha...haha? Brother Ruan?"

Ruan Nanzhu said, "It's okay." He wiped his mouth and smiled, "I just want to call you."

Cheng Qianli hesitated for a second, looking at his expression, he wished he could sew his mouth shut.

Lin Qiushi looked at them and found it funny. He thought that the atmosphere in the villa would be more serious and tense, but after getting along, he found that everyone was actually more like a group of partners.Except for the few days when I walked in the door, it was very easy at other times.

Time passed by little by little, and it was almost time to see Lin Qiushi enter the door.

The night before going in, Ruan Nanzhu finally decided to take Lin Qiushi and Cheng Qianli in by himself.

Cheng Yixie had a disagreement with him on this matter, saying that Ruan Nanzhu's health was not fully recovered, and he could handle this matter himself.

"I'm worried." Ruan Nanzhu said these four words very calmly, "You don't want any accidents happening to your brother, do you?"

Cheng Yixie was silent, and Cheng Qianli was sitting in the living room downstairs, hugging the toast and happily rubbing its ass, looking like a teenager who doesn't know how to feel sad.

Cheng Yixie said: "If Lin Qiushi is not here, will you insist on leading the team?"

Ruan Nanzhu said: "No."

Cheng Yixie said, "What's so special about him?"

Ruan Nanzhu smiled: "Is being cute considered special?"

Cheng Yixie frowned, obviously not believing what Ruan Nanzhu said.After getting along for so long, he knows very well that Ruan Nanzhu is not a person who is easily dominated by emotions. He must have his reasons for valuing Lin Qiushi so much.It's just that at present, he still doesn't know what the reason is.

The matter was settled like this, and Cheng Yixie didn't continue to pester her.

Because they were going to enter Cheng Qianli's door this time, the three of them would be together almost anytime and anywhere in the next few days, and they could only go to the bathroom together by appointment.

Fortunately, this time did not last long. On the afternoon of the tenth day, Lin Qiushi leaned on the sofa and played games with Cheng Qianli.Ruan Nanzhu sat next to them reading a book, with a cat in his arms.

Cheng Qianli, who was having a good time at first, seemed to feel something. He suddenly stopped and said, "Here we come."

Ruan Nanzhu said, "Where is it?"

Cheng Qianli said: "The second floor."

"Let's go." Ruan Nanzhu put down the chestnuts, and the three of them got up and walked towards the second floor together.

After turning the corner of the stairs, Lin Qiushi saw the original corridor, which turned into twelve neat iron doors.Four of them were sealed with seals.

"Go." Ruan Nanzhu looked at Cheng Qianli.

Cheng Qianli's face was slightly pale, he forced a smile, walked forward, and pulled the fifth door.

With a soft creak, the seemingly heavy iron door in front of him was easily pulled open.Lin Qiushi felt a force pushing him into the door, his eyes turned upside down, and the scenery in front of him changed dramatically.

The corridor of the villa disappeared, and what appeared in front of Lin Qiushi was a dense jungle.He looked around, and Ruan Nanzhu and Cheng Qianli, who were supposed to be standing beside him, were gone. The trees in front of him were tall and lush, and there was a gravel path leading to the depths of the jungle.

Lin Qiushi took out his mobile phone and looked at it, not surprisingly, he found that there was no signal on it.He walked forward along the only path, but he saw a girl sitting on the side of the road crying after not walking a few steps.

The girl curled up into a ball, crying out of breath. Lin Qiushi's first reaction when he saw her was that this picture was so familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly remembered that the first time he met Ruan Nanzhu seemed to be the same as him. This scene is very similar...

Could this person be Ruan Nanzhu?Lin Qiushi stood where he was and didn't go over, observing the miserable girl who was crying for a while with a complicated expression.

The girl cried for a while, and when she looked up, she saw Lin Qiushi frowning at her, and quickly stepped back a few steps in fright, her face full of horror: "Who are you? What are you going to do to me——Where is this place—— "

Lin Qiushi was relieved when he heard her words, knowing that she should not be Ruan Nanzhu, he said, "Did you just get here?"

The girl nodded pitifully, she looks quite cute, she is not tall, and the little ball is very cute.

Lin Qiushi said: "Come here, it's getting dark, we have to hurry to our destination."

The girl said, "The destination? Where is the destination? Who are you? Where is this place? Am I not at home?"

A series of questions made Lin Qiushi feel quite overwhelmed. At this moment, he finally understood why the people in the villa were so disgusted with the newcomers at first, because every newcomer means a hundred thousand whys—or the book may be torn at any time kind of.

"Let's talk while walking." Lin Qiushi could only explain in this way.

Probably Lin Qiushi's non-aggressive appearance gave the girl courage. Although she was still a little suspicious, the girl followed Lin Qiushi and left.

The two walked along the path, and Lin Qiushi briefly explained the world inside the door. Of course, he didn't explain it too clearly, because if he wanted to talk about it in detail, he probably wouldn't be able to finish it all day.The girl introduced herself and said her name was Xu Jin. She was walking well on the road, but when she walked downstairs, she saw twelve iron doors when she entered the stairwell...

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the end of the trail, a village nestled in a lush jungle.

This village is full of exotic customs. The houses are almost all wooden stilted buildings. There are some bone products hanging outside the stilted buildings, but I don’t know what kind of bones they are made of.

"You are here." As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, someone greeted them warmly. The person who greeted them was a young woman. She said, "They have already entered the house and are waiting for you." She said and pointed Next to it is a large wooden building.

"Excuse me, where is this place?" Xu Jin was still asking.

The woman didn't answer, but just looked at them with a smile.At first, Lin Qiushi thought the smile was very warm, but upon closer inspection, he felt that the smile was really weird, because no matter what they said, the woman stopped answering and kept the same expression from the beginning to the end.

Lin Qiushi guessed that the woman was probably not the person outside the door, but the NPC inside the door.

Xu Jin was also a little frightened by her smile, and took two steps to the side, Lin Qiushi said: "Let's go in and have a look first."

Xu Jin nodded slightly.

The two went down the stairs to the wooden building next to them, but before they could go in, they heard a fierce quarrel coming from inside.

"Fuck you, where the hell is this place, don't you fucking try to lie to me, I've already called the police!!" - This line is really familiar, and Lin Qiushi instantly understood what happened inside.

The author has something to say: Hahahahaha I saw a comment yesterday and learned a new word: 嘤雄向美.

Lin Qiushi: Stop whining.

Ruan Nanzhu: If you don't yell, then you can only be hard.

Lin Qiushi: ...... yingyingying is actually quite good.
