The Game Show of Death: Demons of Reason

The sky was slightly bright, and a series of firecrackers exploded from the east end of the village to the west end of the village, attracting people from the entire small fishing village to watch the excitement.

The four walls of the madman's house were bare, and even the window paper leaked air. The sound of firecrackers leaked in together with the sound of the wind, waking the madman up from his dream.The lunatic doesn't have much common sense, but he also knows that the sound of firecrackers represents a happy wedding, and he doesn't have to eat, and he can't ignore the excitement.He went out in tattered clothes and squeezed into crowded places.

Small places can't hide secrets, the lunatic walks in the crowd, listening to the people around him talking, and it doesn't take long to understand the situation of the newlyweds.It is said that the old couple in the groom's family had a late baby and were very spoiled. The wedding banquet was quite ostentatious, and everyone in the village was invited to have a drink.And the groom is also very capable. He married a young and beautiful foreign daughter-in-law. Everyone who has seen him said that the groom is blessed. The woman has a small face and a big butt. Lost business.

The lunatic squeezed to the head of the village, and saw the red sedan chair being carried over unsteadily from a distance.The outside of the sedan chair is tattooed with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes, the bride with a red hijab can be seen in the window, and the groom is walking on the side of the sedan chair on a white horse with a proud expression on his face.The groom's relatives and friends made noise along with the wedding procession, and the lunatic started bluffing along with him. Other people's marriage is none of his business. Making troubles and beheadings are all fun to join in, and they are all reasons to be happy.

When the sedan chair arrived at the door of the groom's house, the groom got off his horse and carried the bride across the threshold.The bride is wearing a bright red wedding dress, and the red hijab reveals the bride's chin. Her red lips are smiling, and there are two deep pear dimples at the corners of her mouth.

The lunatic liked that sweet smile at first sight.

After the worship, the groom was about to lift the bride's red hijab when the bride suddenly grabbed his hand and said shyly, "I want to ask you for something, and you can only lift the hijab if you agree."

"What is it?" The groom was impatient, and answered a little irritably: "Isn't the bride price already delivered, what else do you want?"

"I want you to love me."

The lunatic heard this sentence clearly. He didn't understand what "love" was, but the things his favorite bride wanted must be good things.

That night, the lunatic got the groom drunk at the wedding banquet, knocked him unconscious while the groom was out to relieve himself, robbed him of his clothes, and then ostentatiously walked into the bridal chamber in the groom's gown.The bride was sitting on the marriage bed with her head covered, and when she heard someone coming in, she twisted her handkerchief nervously: "Are you here?"

The lunatic sat beside her, gently lifted the red hijab, revealing the bride's red lips and the two deep dimples at the corners of her mouth.The lunatic didn't know what was going on, his heart was beating so fast, as if his narrow chest couldn't hold it, and he had to touch another fiery heart to stop.The lunatic caressed the bride's cheek tenderly, covered her mouth with a red hijab, cut around her neck with the tip of the knife, and then cut along the spine to the coccyx, peeling off a complete piece of human skin.

The lunatic returned home with the human skin, threw it into the well, and shouted at the bottom of the well: "I brought you the human skin, you can come out now." He thought for a while, and added: "However, I gave you the human skin, and I want to ask you for something, can you give it to me?"

"What do you want?" asked the voice from the bottom of the well.

Leaning against the dry well, the lunatic looked at the fading stars in the sky, suddenly shy, and whispered: "I want you to love me."

"it is good."

Before he finished speaking, the devil suddenly appeared in front of the lunatic. The devil was dressed in a red wedding dress, his bright red lips were raised, and two deep dimples sank into the corners of his mouth.He was facing the lunatic, and there were no other facial features except the mouth, and there were only two eye sockets for the eyes, which looked scary and empty.

"call--"

Wei Zixu woke up with a start, panting heavily, the image of the bride was so realistic that it seemed to flash before his eyes.He sat up in bed, feeling a severe migraine, and got out of bed to drink some water.The temperature in the room was moderate, and the cold sweat on his back quickly disappeared. He walked to the window and opened the curtains. It was as dark as ink outside the window, and everything was silent.

Wei Zixu stood by the window and recalled the dream just now. The scene in the dream obviously came from the story of "Madman and Demon".Wei Zixu heard Nian Weiji tell this story last night while he was half asleep and half awake, and he was not sure if what happened last night really happened.Wei Zixu thought, his imagination is too good, he can imagine such a specific scene from the nonsensical stories he fabricated at the end of the year, as if he turned into a "lunatic" himself and went to that remote small fishing village for a while. suffer.Wei Zixu pressed his temples, his headache couldn't stop, he didn't feel sleepy, so he pushed open the door and walked out.

The lights in the hall were still the same, Wei Zixu glanced around, and immediately noticed the moving figure nestled in the corner.The man turned his back to Wei Zixu, lying on the ground, concentrating on operating something.

The man's back was slender, his back was loose and his head was loose, with a few strands of black hair hanging down his ears, Wei Zixu could easily recognize who he was.

"What are you doing?" Wei Zixu walked over and asked.

Hearing Wei Zixu's voice, Nian Wei turned around excitedly, raised his right hand and said, "Look, I took it out!"

"Take out what——" Wei Zixu's voice froze. In his eyes, Nian Weiji's hands were covered with blood, and a few drops were splashed on the cuff of his white coat. Nian Weiji was holding a centimeter-square chip in his right hand. He seemed to be showing off. He held it up to Wei Zixu's eyes.

Nian Weiji said: "Actually, I found some people's names everywhere on the first floor, some with the date, some without the date. I'm not sure what it means. I also found it in this crevice yesterday. There is no date for Zhou Tong’s name, but look—” Nian Weiji pointed to a stone on the ground, and on the side of the stone was written: “Zhou Tong, June 2022, 6.”

"It's today's date." Nian Weiji said, "These names and dates are their tombstones."

"Then why did you dig it?" Wei Zixu asked.

The end of the year: "I want to know if there is a body buried here, but I didn't find a suitable tool, so I had to dig with my bare hands. I dug out several bricks, and found Zhou Tong's right hand." When he said this, Wei Zixu saw that he was holding the chip between his fingertips, and all ten of his fingers were bleeding.

"Then I smashed her wrist with a brick and pulled out her terminal—you see, it still works! This terminal can display the spatial coordinates, which is equivalent to having a portable space now, but I haven't actually used it yet. Used it, don’t know—”

At the end of the year, when he was about to diverge his thoughts, Wei Zixu took out a silver object and put it at his feet: "Then put Zhou Tong's pistol in that space, and you can take it out for self-defense at any time."

"Huh? Give it to me?" Nian Weiji asked strangely, "I don't know how to use it, so it's better for you to hold it."

Wei Zixu: "You are too weak. Like this afternoon, when you were caught, you had no strength to fight back. If you held a gun, you could intimidate others to some extent. Wait until I rush to rescue you. If you don't know how to use it, I can teach you how to fight back." You can always shoot people at close range, but you must remember the most important point with a pistol."

At the end of the year: "What is it? Holding a gun in both hands? Loading it in advance?"

Wei Zixu shook his head and smiled meaningfully:

"Save a bullet for yourself."

Wei Zixu's suggestion is very pertinent. There are many ways to die in DEATHSHOW. Instead of being tortured to death, it is better to end it yourself.

"I know, but I won't commit suicide." Nian Wei has pursed his lower lip, and two dimples flashed by: "I'd rather save the last bullet for you."

At the end of the year, he had no experience in holding a gun, and his fingers were injured, so he could only carefully rub the pistol with both palms, with the muzzle facing down. Then Wei Zixu watched him put the pistol into his pocket, and patted him with peace of mind and confidence. Slap—it's like carrying a baked sweet potato in your pocket.

Wei Zixu had already begun to regret giving him the gun.

"Thank you, I feel much more secure now." Nian Wei has let out a long breath.Wei Zixu asked curiously, "Have you ever been nervous?"

"I was nervous. When those two perverts wanted to rape me this afternoon, I was very nervous and planned to resist to the end. This shows that you can't relax your vigilance for a moment, and you have to work harder to protect me." The end of the year He said seriously, then lowered his head, buried Zhou Tong's body back, filled it with masonry and soil, and tried his best to restore it to its original state.

Wei Zixu thought he was alert to Nian Weiji's narcissism, but now he refreshed his cognition once again.He could see that Jinjue was indeed interested in Nian Weiji, but obviously not for Nian Weiji's body.Even in Wei Zixu's eyes, Jin Jue is considered a handsome man, he should have rich experience, and his straightforward sexuality is obvious, so he resents being treated as a rapist.And Nian Weiji is full of hypocrisy of an older virgin, but firmly believes that he is damn sexy. When he said these words so naturally, Wei Zixu couldn't answer.

Wei Zixu had no choice but to immerse himself in tidying up the road with Nian Weiji, and was too lazy to argue with him.

It took them 10 minutes to step on the ground, shovel away the blood, put away the chips and pistols at the end of the year, stretch their muscles and bones, looked at the uneven walls of the hall, and suddenly asked: "You said that on this floor... .. how many dead bodies are there with us?"

Wei Zixu: "Don't think that this matter will be easier."

"Ha, I understand. No wonder Xiaodai designed the first floor in the style of a resort." Nian Weiji narrowed his eyes and said with a half-smile: "Because many people are buried underground and are spending the longest period of their lives here." s holiday."

"I hope we won't end up here on vacation." Wei Zixu reminded: "It's almost 3 o'clock now, you should go back and rest."

"I can't sleep." Nian Weiji said distressedly.He went to the bench and sat down, leaned back, put his arms on the back of the chair, and looked up at Wei Zixu: "I want to treat your illness, but I can't sleep."

"Then wake up, no one is begging you." Wei Zixu said flatly, and turned to go back to the room.

"Actually, the story yesterday... has a follow-up."

Wei Zixu stopped in his tracks and snorted coldly: "Oh, it was you who sneaked into my room in the middle of the night yesterday. What's wrong with you, you ran to my bed without my permission and told illogical bedtime stories. You If you do that again, I'll really beat you up."

"But you want to hear it," Nian Weiji said with a cheeky smile, "You can't even walk. I lied to you yesterday. I didn't finish the story, but ended with a happy ending. But If you are not satisfied, then let me tell you the real ending."

Nian Weiji moved his butt back, put his elbows on his knees, arched his body, and opened his mouth slowly.There was still a smell of blood in the air, which made Wei Zixu feel a gloomy atmosphere. He had no reason to finish listening to the story, but his feet stopped in place by a ghost.

"The devil puts on the bride's skin and can move around in the world. He and the madman lived happily together for many years. Until one evening, they sat side by side at the beach watching the sunset. The afterglow shone on the madman's face. The first wrinkle appeared."

"The devil stretched out his hand to pinch the madman's face and flattened his face, but when he let go, the wrinkle returned."

"'What's the matter?' the madman asked him."

"The demon said: 'Do you remember what you said to me when you gave me this skin?'"

"The lunatic thought for a while: 'Remember, I said you have to give me something too. I want you to love me.'"

"The demon let go of his hand, smiled slightly, and two dimples appeared on the corners of his mouth: 'I promised you, but I lied to you. Didn't anyone tell you that love is something you don't want. I say that because I must get out of that damned well and seek revenge on the man who threw me into it.'”

"'Didn't you give it to me?' The madman was flustered: 'But when I was with you, I was very happy and satisfied. I have never felt this kind of feeling before. You must have given me something. Think about it carefully. think?'"

"The devil said: 'I lied to you, but when I came out of the well, I liked you at first sight, and I always wondered why.'"

"The demon leaned up to the maniac and stroked his cheek: 'Now I know.'"

"'You are beautiful, even though you are a man.' said the demon softly, with a hint of obsession in his eyes: 'I like this skin, it is my favorite skin.'"

"'Give me this skin, please?'"

"The devil did not hesitate to insert the tip of the knife into the madman's neck, cut around, and then cut along the spine to the tailbone, peeling off a complete piece of human skin. He put on the madman's skin, and took the still alive The lunatics are thrown into the dry well."

"The devil feels very happy and satisfied, happier than when he was with the lunatic. He wanders around, enjoys the scenery, eats delicious food, chats with the old and children in the village, and joins in to watch whatever is happening. But the good times don't last long, the devil's Rationality begins to disappear gradually. A madman is crazy, and the skin of a madman is also crazy. The devil wearing a madman's skin is not working well. He only cares about the happiness in front of him, and slowly forgets what happened before he put on this skin. .”

"One day, the devil was sitting at the mouth of the well playing, and a faint voice came from the bottom of the well, saying hello to the devil."

"The devil was very curious about how there were people at the bottom of the well, so he asked the voice at the bottom of the well why he lived in the well."

"The voice said: 'I was betrayed by the one I loved, skinned and thrown into the well.'"

"The demon was attracted by that voice and asked if he could come up and play with him."

"The voice was silent for a while, and said slowly: 'Okay. As long as you get me a human skin.'"
