Kaleidoscope of Death

In the dark corridor, Ruan Nanzhu kept raising his hand to look at his watch.

5 minutes is not much time, especially in the dangerous door, these short few minutes are even more fleeting.

Lin Qiushi had already entered the room, and there was silence around him at this moment, only the bright and dark flames at the end of the corridor could be seen.

The hour hand turned a little bit, one circle, two circles, three circles... Just when it turned the fourth circle.Cheng Yixie finally couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Can he come back?"

Ruan Nanzhu glanced at Cheng Yixie and didn't answer, but his eyes told Cheng Yixie the answer - Lin Qiushi will definitely come back.

Cheng Yixie sighed slightly in his heart and stopped talking.

There are 30 seconds left in the time, and there is still no movement inside the door.

The movement inside the mirror was getting louder and louder, and even Luo Qianshui could occasionally be seen shuttling inside. It seemed that 5 minutes was indeed her limit.

Ruan Nanzhu's eyes froze on the second hand of the watch.

Luo Qianshan who was standing next to him said suddenly: "Qianshui, don't hold on."

There are still 15 seconds until the time they agreed on, but Lin Qiushi still hasn't come out.Luo Qianshan was not surprised by this situation, the situation inside the sect was extremely dangerous, besides, they still had something to hide.

The keys were indeed hanging on the wall.It's just that there are more than one key hanging on it.Luo Qianshan had great confidence in Zhu Meng. He had an intuition that if Zhu Meng entered, he would be able to find the real key within 5 minutes.But now that the man named Yu Linlin was replaced, he was not sure.

But these things are decided by Zhu Meng and the others themselves, and Luo Qianshan doesn't bother to talk about them.

Tick ​​tock, a few seconds seemed extremely long at this time.

Luo Qianshui in the mirror fell out of the mirror in a state of embarrassment. She seemed to be injured a little bit, and said, "Have you got it?"

When Luo Qianshan saw her appear, he shook his head with a gloomy expression.

But as they were talking, there was a slight noise in the hallway, and something fell on the hallway carpet.

Others might not be able to see it clearly, but Ruan Nanzhu could see it clearly—a moment before the door closed, a bronze key was thrown out of the door.No need to think about who threw out that bronze key.But although the key came out, the person was locked inside.

In Ruan Nanzhu's black eyes, there was a strong gloom.

He slowly walked to the side of Luo Qianshan who was beaming with joy. Luo Qianshan was still talking to Luo Qianshui, but he seemed to have sensed something was wrong with the atmosphere beside him. Just as he was about to turn his head, he felt a cold sharp object approaching. stuck around his neck.

"Go in." Ruan Nanzhu's cold voice came.

"What?" Luo Qianshui was taken aback when she saw this, "What are you doing—" She widened her eyes, as if she hadn't thought that Ruan Nanzhu would suddenly attack.

Ruan Nanzhu raised his hand and glanced at his watch, and without hesitation increased the strength in his hand. The sharp table knife cut Luo Qianshan's skin, and bright red blood flowed out.Luo Qianshan said bitterly: "If you have the ability, kill me!"

Ruan Nanzhu laughed, and said, "You think I dare not?"

Luo Qianshui stopped talking, and she judged from Ruan Nanzhu's tone that the man in front of her was really daring to insert that sharp blade into her brother's neck.

Luo Qianshan is different from her. He is a human being who can be injured or die. Luo Qianshui gritted his teeth: "I'll give you another 30 seconds..."

Ruan Nanzhu sneered: "For a whole minute, if you miss a second, your brother will die here."

Luo Qianshui: "You—"

Luo Qianshan was trembling with anger from Ruan Nanzhu's sudden attack. He didn't expect Ruan Nanzhu to do such an unwise move for the person who entered the house.

"Yixie, come here." Ruan Nanzhu handed the knife in his hand to Cheng Yixie, "If he dares to resist, just stab him in." His tone was determined, and it didn't seem like he was joking at all.

Luo Qianshan also knew that Ruan Nanzhu was serious.This person is simply a lunatic who does not follow common sense. Most people forget their teammates when they see the key. Who would think of going to such a dangerous place to rescue him!

Luo Qianshan gave Luo Qianshui a look, and Luo Qianshui was about to nod slightly, when he heard Ruan Nanzhu continue to order: "Watch your watch, one minute, as long as Luo Qianshui dares to come out a second earlier, do it directly. "

Cheng Yixie said, "Okay."

Luo Qianshui said angrily: "Zhu Meng, you cheating liar!"

Ruan Nanzhu sneered: "Liar? Are you ashamed to call me a liar? You came out 5 minutes ahead of schedule. If he dies, you all have to be buried with him."

Luo Qianshui said: "It's just five seconds earlier—even if you give him five more seconds—"

Her subsequent words were broken by Ruan Nanzhu's cold eyes.

Luo Qianshui knew that there was no room for maneuver in this matter, so he turned around angrily and entered the mirror in front of him again.

Ruan Nanzhu looked towards the end of the corridor, and after the mother and daughter disappeared again, he ran towards the room where Lin Qiushi entered.

1 minute, but a moment.

Ruan Nanzhu opened the door, and when he saw Lin Qiushi not far from the door, he breathed a sigh of relief.He rushed into the house, trying to take Lin Qiushi away from the room.

However, at this moment, flames had already started to ignite in the whole room, and the temperature was frighteningly high. Ruan Nanzhu coughed in a low voice, hugged Lin Qiushi with difficulty, and walked towards the door.

In just a few steps, it seems to have become a bridge through hell.

The hot ground and burning flames scorched Ruan Nanzhu's skin. It is said that the pain level of burns is the highest. Ruan Nanzhu hurts a lot, but his steps are very steady.

Step by step, after more than ten seconds, Ruan Nanzhu finally left the room that had been roasted and was about to deform, and went to the corridor.

Lin Qiushi was still sleeping in his arms. When Ruan Nanzhu lowered his head, he could see his sleeping face. He lowered his eyes, thinking that Lin Qiushi passed out, otherwise he saw his face at this moment. What to do with his appearance, he is not pretty at this moment.

"Zhu Meng!!" Cheng Yixie trembled as he watched from the other side of the corridor.

When Ruan Nanzhu came out of the room, he had already turned into a burning man, and fell down on the corridor in embarrassment and rolled a few times before the flames on his body went out.

However, these few movements seemed to exhaust all his strength, and he didn't move for a while.

1 minute was up soon, and when Cheng Yixie was thinking about whether to go to help, Ruan Nanzhu struggled to get up from the ground, he found the key on the floor, then dragged Lin Qiushi with difficulty, and returned to the their side.

Tick ​​tock, 1 minute is just up.

When Luo Qianshui came out of the mirror, half of her body was covered in blood, and she was also injured. When she raised her eyes, she saw Ruan Nanzhu, who had been burned beyond recognition.Ordinary people would have fainted long ago after suffering such an injury, but Ruan Nanzhu was still conscious. He leaned against the wall, his black eyes stared at Luo Qianshui coldly, his voice lost the previous Qingyue, and he was caught The smoky voice was extremely hoarse: "I found the key, look for the door."

Luo Qianshui glanced at Luo Qianshan in a panic.

Luo Qianshan's expression was also slightly complicated. It was the first time he saw someone like Ruan Nanzhu. He said, "Men, I don't have a clue. I have to search layer by layer."

It's just that Ruan Nanzhu has such a serious injury on his body, but he doesn't know if he can last until he finds the door.

Ruan Nanzhu stopped talking, just when the others thought he had fainted, he opened his mouth again, and uttered four words: "Safe passage."

Luo Qianshan was taken aback.

"Go to the safe passage." Ruan Nanzhu's voice sounded very weak, and it took people to be very serious to hear it clearly. "The door is probably there."

While they were talking, the surrounding temperature began to gradually increase.

Cheng Yixie thought it was his illusion at first, but he soon discovered that it was not his illusion - the whole corridor was burning.

The wallpaper began to turn black, and flames burst out of the wall.

"There's no time!" Luo Qianshan didn't expect such a situation, he said, "They're gone!"

Cheng Yixie turned his head, and as expected, he saw the mother and daughter at the end of the corridor disappearing outside the door, and these two scorched figures appeared in the mirrors around them.

Others in the team also noticed the strangeness, and began to come out of the room one after another.

"What's the matter, what's going on..." The noisy discussion made people upset.

Ruan Nanzhu said suddenly: "Yixie, stay away from the mirror."

Cheng Yixie hurriedly took a step forward upon hearing this.As soon as he stepped out, the mirror behind him made a crisp sound, and a pair of black arms stretched out from the mirror, trying to grab him in front of the mirror.

"Get out of here quickly." Ruan Nanzhu leaned on the wall and stood up with difficulty, he said, "Take him..."

That him, of course, refers to Lin Qiushi who is still in a coma.

Looking at the appearance of these three people, Luo Qianshan's eyes sank. He just put his hand into his pocket, but was caught by Luo Qianshui next to him.

Luo Qianshui looked at him beggingly, and slowly shook his head.

Why... Luo Qianshan's eyes showed doubts, don't you hate her?

Luo Qianshui stood on tiptoe and leaned into Luo Qianshan's ear: "She reminds me of me back then."

Luo Qianshan's movements stopped, and his expression showed a bit of pain. He glanced at Luo Qianshui, then at Ruan Nanzhu, and finally did nothing.

The safe passage is at the end of the corridor, and the four big green characters are particularly eye-catching in the dark.

But it is not easy to move from here to the safe passage. In the mirrors on both sides of the corridor, there are countless pairs of scorched black hands and arms. The world of the dead.

Luo Qianshan supported Ruan Nanzhu.

Ruan Nanzhu glanced at him: "Aren't you going to kill me?"

Luo Qianshan didn't speak, but from his expression, he really wanted to do something to Ruan Nanzhu.

"You should be thankful that you didn't do anything." Ruan Nanzhu laughed, his face was burned beyond recognition, but his eyes were frighteningly bright, "Otherwise, at this moment, it's not certain who will die."

Luo Qianshan was silent for a moment: "Haven't you ever thought that you might not be able to get out after you go in?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "I never thought about it."

Luo Qianshan's expression was slightly distorted, feeling that he couldn't say anything to Ruan Nanzhu's incomparably confident attitude for a while, so he could only say: "He is very important?"

Ruan Nanzhu's tone was very calm: "I don't know if it's important or not, I just know that if I went in instead, he would go in and look for me." He has this confidence, Lin Qiushi is such a person.

Luo Qianshan stopped talking.

When leaving the corridor, several people in the team were grabbed by black arms, and they were pulled into the world in the mirror abruptly.

As soon as these people fell into the mirror, their bodies started to catch fire, and the screams from their mouths were unbearable to watch.

Fortunately, they had Luo Qianshui by their side, so Luo Qianshui could enter the mirror and get rid of those scorched arms first.

"I found the door, I found the door!!" Someone suddenly yelled, yelling towards the people in the corridor, "It's in this room, come here quickly..."

"Gate?" Luo Qianshui was overjoyed when he heard the words, and looked at Luo Qianshan.

Before Luo Qianshan could speak, Cheng Yixie said flatly, "That person is not alive." The person who yelled was the dead person they found mixed in the team before, with his toes backward and his heels forward.

"The key, I have the key!" Another dead man began to shout, their screams were especially clear amidst the screams, and as expected, they attracted several living people to go over.

"What about you, don't you come over?" The man looked at Ruan Nanzhu and Luo Qianshan.

"No." Luo Qianshan said, "You guys can play by yourself."

The man wanted to say something more after hearing the words, Luo Qianshan said: "Enough is enough."

Hearing this, the man's expression was contorted for a moment, and he actually turned around and left. As soon as the two people deceived by him entered the room, the door of the room was locked, and then there was a shrill cry from inside the room. The sound and the smell belong to the meat being roasted.

It's hell in here.

After a difficult move, they finally reached the door of the safe passage.

Luo Qianshan looked at Ruan Nanzhu: "Is the door really here?"

Ruan Nanzhu was already very weak, he could not speak if he could not speak, and when he heard Luo Qianshan's question, he just raised his eyes, as if you would believe it or not.

Luo Qianshan didn't bother to ask any more questions, and pushed open the fire door forcefully.After the fire door, a black iron door appeared, and the big lock hung on the iron door told them that this was the way to leave.

Luo Qianshui wept with joy.

Ruan Nanzhu handed the key to Cheng Yixie and motioned him to open the door.

After Cheng Yixie opened the door, revealing the tunnel full of light behind him, he bent down, picked up the clue and put it in his pocket.

"Let's go first." Luo Qianshan glanced at Ruan Nanzhu, "Take care."

Ruan Nanzhu whispered: "Take care."

Luo Qianshan and Luo Qianshui entered the tunnel together. The moment Luo Qianshui stepped into the tunnel, Luo Qianshui standing next to him disappeared. Obviously, she could only exist in the terrifying world inside the door. As soon as she left the door, She will disappear.

Cheng Yixie was about to ask Ruan Nanzhu to go together, but found that he had passed out. He sighed softly, put Lin Qiushi on his back on the ground, and dragged them out by their legs.

At this time, the flames had already reached the door, and as long as they walked more slowly, they might not be spared—as for the only place that can survive, who knows who it will belong to.

At the end of the tunnel, the scene around Cheng Yixie changed, and he appeared in the villa.

After he returned to the door, he quickly walked towards the room of Ruan Nanzhu and Lin Qiushi. After knocking on the door without any movement, Cheng Yixie opened the door with a spare key. people.

One's face was as pale as paper, and he was almost breathless, while the other was lying in a pool of blood, as if he had died.

Cheng Yixie quickly called an ambulance and sent the two to the hospital.

Then, they began to wait for the two people to wake up for a long time.

It can be said that Ruan Nanzhu saved his life. If it weren't for his extraordinary physical fitness, he might have died on the way to the hospital.

Lin Qiushi was slightly better than Ruan Nanzhu, but he was almost organ failure due to blood loss.

All in all, it was pure luck that these two survived.

Cheng Yixie was silent when he was guarding the two of them. Cheng Qianli poked his brother on the back of the head with his finger when he was delivering the meal, and said, "Little friend, why do you have such an expression? Your little brain is thinking what."

Cheng Yixie stared at him coldly, and Cheng Qianli said in a second, "Okay, okay, think whatever you want, I'll eat first." Then he muttered that it was really fierce.

Cheng Yixie was very rude: "Even if I tell you about your IQ, I still can't understand it."

Cheng Qianli: "How do you know I can't understand before you said it?"

Cheng Yixie showed disdain.

Cheng Qianli was aggrieved and unable to refute, who told him to be really stupid.

The two were in a coma for two days. Lin Qiushi woke up first, and Ruan Nanzhu woke up later. The two stayed in the hospital for more than two months before their bodies gradually recovered.

There were no other accidents during the period. The only variable was that Cheng Qianli pushed Lin Qiushi, who was in a wheelchair, to play speeding cars every day, flying from one end of the hospital garden to the other end of the garden. The surrounding nurses and patients were all facing them One cast a mentally handicapped look.

In the end, Lin Qiushi couldn't take it anymore, and said to Cheng Qianli, please let me go, I'm just a poor patient, why are you doing this to me.

Cheng Qianli shamelessly explained: "Exercise is good for physical recovery!"

Lin Qiushi almost collapsed when he heard the words: "But it's the wheelchair that's exercising, not me—"

Cheng Qianli: "Isn't it the same as exercising when you are sitting in a wheelchair?"

Lin Qiushi had nothing to say, and after staring at Cheng Qianli for a while, he stood up from the wheelchair and walked away silently.

Cheng Qianli: "Hey? You can walk—"

Lin Qiushi scolded: "My fucking leg is not broken, why can't I walk."

Cheng Qianli expressed regret.

At night, Lin Qiushi told Ruan Nanzhu about it.

Ruan Nanzhu was still lying on the hospital bed. Although his face was better, his breath was still weak. After listening, he said, "You can play with Cheng Qianli."

Lin Qiushi: "..." Why does he always feel that this sentence is scolding him.

Ruan Nanzhu couldn't help but smile when he saw Lin Qiushi's expression as if he had eaten shit.

His body is still in an unhealed state, and the injury inside the door has had a serious impact on his body, so that he can't get out of bed now.Lin Qiushi and Ruan Nanzhu were chatting, and their eyes suddenly moved to his hands.

"Lin Qiushi?" Ruan Nanzhu saw Lin Qiushi suddenly quiet down, and called him softly.

Only then did Lin Qiushi come back to his senses, and smiled apologetically: "Sorry, I lost my mind."

"What are you thinking?" Ruan Nanzhu asked him.

Lin Qiushi: "It's nothing." He paused for a moment and pursed his lips.

"Speak." Ruan Nanzhu's voice was very gentle.

Lin Qiushi was quiet for a while before he asked, "Does it hurt?"

Ruan Nanzhu looked into Lin Qiushi's eyes, and realized that he was asking himself when he was injured inside the door. He tilted his head, as if he was seriously remembering, and then hummed after a long while.

Lin Qiushi reached out and grabbed Ruan Nanzhu's wrist.His movements were very light, obviously afraid of hurting Ruan Nanzhu, he turned Ruan Nanzhu's wrist over and saw the gauze wrapped on it.

When changing the dressing, Lin Qiushi saw the wound.

The wound was long and bloody, and it looked out of place on Ruan Nanzhu's fair skin.Lin Qiushi also saw other wounds on Ruan Nanzhu's body. Those wounds were densely packed and criss-crossed. Even just looking at them, one could feel a faint pain.

Ruan Nanzhu is not a delicate person, even he feels pain, it must be very painful.

Lin Qiushi's fingers stroked the skin on Ruan Nanzhu's wrist, and for a while he didn't know what to say.

Ruan Nanzhu didn't ask, the two just looked at each other quietly.

Lin Qiushi's lips moved slightly, and he was about to say something to break the silence, but Cheng Qianli just came in from outside, holding a huge fruit basket in his hand, and said, "Brother Ruan, Tan Zaozao and the others are here to see you."

Standing behind Cheng Qianli, Tan Zaozao stuck his head out and said, "Brother Ruan, how are you?"

As soon as she came in, she saw Lin Qiushi holding Ruan Nanzhu's wrist, and said, "Qiu Shi, why are you taking advantage of Brother Ruan while we're not here?" She came over shamelessly, "Who doesn't want to touch it? Where is Brother Ruan's hand..."

Ruan Nanzhu silently took his hand out of Lin Qiushi's hand and stuffed it under the quilt.

Tan Zaozao showed a regretful expression.

Lin Qiushi: "..." Tan Zaozao, can't you be more reserved.

Cheng Qianli put the fruit basket beside him and said what do you want to eat, I will wash it.

Tan Zaozao didn't turn her head back: "Pick out the lychees, beauties should eat lychees."

Ruan Nanzhu: "Tan Zaozao."

Tan Zaozao: "Huh?"

Ruan Nanzhu: "Do you think I can't cut you if I'm sick?"

Tan Zaozao said: "I don't, I'm not." Didn't I never see the weak Ruan Nanzhu suddenly feel strange?

Ruan Nanzhu: "You wait for me."

Tan Zaozao was hopeless, looked at Lin Qiushi aggrievedly, and said, "Brother Lin, please persuade Brother Ruan, he wants to cut me."

Lin Qiushi said: "What kind of knife do you use to cut it? Can the fruit knife move?"

Tan Zaozao: "..." You two gangsters.
