Between life and death [unlimited]
Chapter 100 Guessing the Riddle
Jiang Lai put the Walkman aside, closed his eyes and rested his mind, trying to reduce his breathing rate as much as possible.He could clearly feel that the oxygen content in the coffin was decreasing, and the water vapor and carbon dioxide emitted by respiration would also increase the temperature in the coffin.
Coupled with the strenuous exercise before, not only is Jiang Shui's forehead covered with beads of sweat, but his whole body is also sweating. The clothes on his upper body stick to his skin like a second layer of skin. Same.
He can imagine how helpless those players who entered this special game by mistake before would be in such a panic situation, and may not even be able to survive the first level of the "Lucky One" game. In the end, due to the lack of oxygen in the coffin, he died of suffocation.
Fortunately, Jiang Lai encountered such an extreme situation, and his mentality was relatively stable.He thought that Si Yufeng wouldn't be too flustered after waking up. He didn't know what the content of the first game - "Sentimental and Sorrowful" was. The name shouldn't sound offensive. I hope Si Yufeng That side can persist until the final game level.
"Zi-Zi-Zi-Zi-" The walkman made a sound of electricity starting to load the tape again, and sure enough, the next second, Jiang Xun heard the exaggerated opening of the dung beetle lady.
"If you don't play, you don't know. Once you play, it's amazing!"
"Thank you for waiting patiently, and welcome everyone back to our program that was voted No. [-] by insects in the universe - 'The Lucky One Breaks Through'!"
Ms. Dungchi seemed to approach the microphone suddenly, and her voice became louder instantly, "I believe everyone has been waiting for a long time, so let's not talk nonsense now, and directly enter the main topic of the game!"
A burst of regular drum beats seemed to kick off the entertainment game, and the introduction to the first round of the game suddenly appeared in Jiang Xun's ears: "The level-breaking game 'Sentimental' is one of the programs most anticipated by insect audience friends. One, its uncertainty at the beginning can bring more excitement to everyone.”
"Specific gameplay: Participants need to guess the item drawn by the director first. There are four guessing opportunities in total, and each time a part of the object will be shown to the participant; if the participant guesses correctly, he will successfully advance to the next round of the game. If the guess is wrong, then Immediate disqualification (stupid humans don't deserve to be friends with noble insects!)."
At this time, Jiang Xun suddenly heard a system reminder that it is always patched——
[Warning: For players who fail in the first round of the game, the system will directly withdraw their game qualifications and obliterate the existence of the player! 】
After the game introduction, Ms. Dungchi asked Jiang Shui in a malicious voice: "I don't know if our participants have any questions. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them. After all, 90% of human players will die in the first place." On the level, it seems like how much we insects bully people..."
But she seemed to be afraid that Jiang Shou would ask some questions, and she spoke quickly, as if the referee in the arena wanted to let the two players enter the game quickly, "I wonder if this participant is ready? If there is no If there is any objection, then we will announce that the game is now..."
However, Jiang Xun suddenly interrupted Ms. Dungchi's lines, "I have objections."
Even in a very stuffy environment, his voice sounded as cold as the wind.
"Oh?" Although Miss Dungchi is a big name in the host world, she still maintains the basic qualities of a host.After being directly interrupted by Jiang Xun, she didn't get angry or continue talking, but instead asked very patiently: "I don't know if our participant who has never spoken or screamed all this time will What questions do you have?"
"Is it because our game introduction is not detailed enough, or is it that the human participant's understanding is not enough?"
The backstage director immediately played a sound effect of insects laughing at the audience, but to Jiang Lai, it was also mixed with the sound of countless insects rubbing their joints.
Aside from the fact that the host laughed at the human participants, this show is indeed worthy of the "No. [-] vote" that it has been boasting about.
"If that's the case, then I'm really worried about the next performance of this human participant~" Miss Dungchi continued to tease Jiang Lai, "It looks quite pleasing to us bugs, but I didn't expect it to be a 'Big embroidered pillow', to be honest, I still don't want you to die."
If Si Yufeng or Zhang Jian were here, they would definitely be surprised that Jiang Lai's charm is so great. In addition to being remembered by humans, he can also be liked by insects...
But Jiang Xun didn't care so much. He just felt uncomfortable for a moment when he heard Miss Dungchi's joke, but he still asked without any ups and downs in his tone: "It is said in the game introduction that if you guess correctly, you will advance, and if you guess wrong, you will be promoted." eliminated, right?"
"That's right." Miss Dung Beetle replied with a smile: "Aren't the rules of the game clearly written? Are there any problems?"
Jiang Xun still closed his eyes and meditated, trying to minimize the consumption of oxygen inside the coffin, "Shouldn't you announce the title first?"
Miss Dungchi's rustling laughter came from the walkman, "Hehe, in order to increase the fun of the game, we only announce the title after the four opportunities to experience it~"
Doing so will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of the game. If you think about the problem from the wrong angle at the beginning, even if you guess what the item is, you may end up not knowing the correct answer because of the wrong question.Jiang Lai analyzed in his heart, but he couldn't change the rules, so he had to ask his next question.
"What about after the guessing game?" According to the poor performance of the system, Jiang Xun didn't believe that this was just a simple guessing game. After guessing right or wrong, there must still be other hidden content.
"I want to know what will happen after guessing the riddle." Jiang Lai said again.
Sure enough, after hearing this question, Miss Dung Beetle over there paused and didn't answer for a long time.It should be discussed with other insects. It seems that they have not encountered accidents in the live broadcast for a long time.
After a while, Miss Dungbeet smiled coquettishly, and continued to say on the other end of the walkman: "It seems that our participant is a bit like us noble insects, and there are quite a lot of factors to consider. Because the system There are rules, so we still have to answer this question truthfully.”
"There is indeed a little bit of other content after the riddle guessing, and this content has a great relationship with the theme of our game. As for the specific content, according to the regulations, we can not disclose it for the time being. Our participants are welcome to make their own decisions. Comprehend and experience~"
Jiang Xun: "..." So what's the difference between this answer and no answer?
The name of the game is "Sentimental and Sorrowful", which sounds a lot like the interaction between lovers... Jiang Xun imagined in his mind all the things that could be compatible with "Sentimental and Sorrowful", and a vague guess appeared in his heart.
But Miss Dungchi couldn't wait on the other side, as if she was afraid that Jiang Li would have other questions, she said anxiously and quickly: "The time for questions is over, then we announce the start of the game now!"
There was another burst of regular drumbeats, this time accompanied by the cheers of the insects, and the game finally officially started.
"Participants have a total of four opportunities to touch a part of the object, and each time is 30s. Next is the first opportunity of the game. Now, the timing begins—"
Jiang Lai opened his eyes in response, but his surroundings were still pitch black without any light.
The killer's intuition was instantly aroused, and Jiang Xun suddenly felt that some objects appeared out of thin air above his body.After realizing that it should be just a still life and there is no danger, Jiang Xun cautiously stretched out his hands and put it on.
The moment Jiang Lai first touched it, he immediately recognized that it was a human right hand.I don't know what this puzzle will be, but the answer to this game should not be as simple as "human beings", so Jiang Shang had to feel the hand carefully, trying to find more clues through certain details.
The bones of this right hand are slightly larger, resembling the bones of a male, but it does not rule out the possibility of some women; the nails are round, but there are calluses on the fingers and palms, which should be working people engaged in physical labor; and, different Compared with the smooth skin of a young man, the skin on this hand has the rough skin feel of a dying old man.
Jiang Lai thought to himself, this probably belongs to the right hand of an old man or woman, and this old man should have done a lot of physical work when he was young.
"Okay, it's time now. This participant still doesn't have any expression on his face. It seems that our participant should be confident." Miss Dungchi's voice sounded at the right time, "I just don't know what the answer in the participant's mind is. Is it correct? Next, it’s a second chance~”
As soon as he fell suddenly, Jiang Lai felt something appear above him again, this time he directly stretched out his hand to feel it carefully.
Some of the items that appeared this time should be the old man's shoulders.But it is very strange, the shoulders of the general elderly are relatively thin, but this one's shoulders are very broad and well-defined, like a young and strong boy.
Jiang Xun wondered in his heart: even if he had engaged in manual labor, he would naturally age when he was about to die, and his physical fitness would definitely not be as good as before, but what happened to this broad and powerful shoulder?
He couldn't figure out why.
Miss Dungchi announced again: "Our participants finally showed puzzled expressions on their faces. Our topic this time is indeed a bit difficult to guess! What could this be?"
"Hee hee, let's enter our third round of touch opportunities!"
This time, the moment some items appeared, Jiang Li stretched out his hand.He wanted to know what this person's identity was.
What appeared this time was even weirder. Jiang Xun knew that it should be the clothes worn by the old man.The feel from the fingertips is smooth. The material of this dress should be silk and satin, and it seems to have embroidery on it. It is different from the common auspicious patterns such as Fu Shou Lu on old clothes. This is what is embroidered on it. a complete animal.
It should be said that most old people like clean clothes, but there are also some old women who like to wear such overhanging clothes embroidered with flowers, but most old men probably won't wear this kind of clothes embroidered with animals.
According to this dress, Jiang Lai guessed in his mind that the old man's gender was probably a woman, but he did not rule out the possibility of a man.
"The third chance is over, and the most exciting fourth chance has finally arrived! Let's get straight to the point!" Miss Dungchi didn't say any more polite words this time, and directly cut to the point.
Jiang Xun also put his hand directly above it, and guessed that it was a braid the moment the object appeared.It's like the braids that young girls like to wear.
He combined the results of the previous three times and came to a very bizarre conclusion-an old man with braids, strong body, and wearing animal embroidery?
Regardless of whether it is a man or a woman, Jiang Xun felt that this inference was very weird, and his doubts grew more and more.
The 30 seconds ended soon, and Ms. Dung Beetle finally announced the title of the game: "The title of this guessing game is-'Which species is the human being that appeared just now'? Participants have 1 minute Considering the time, those who have not answered when the time is up will be eliminated directly."
Humans are also divided into different species. It seems that if insects become the overlord of the earth like humans, they should also perform many of the same behaviors as humans.
"Now, the timer starts!"
Time passed by second by second, which was originally a very short minute. Jiang Xun only felt that this question was like a time bomb that was bound to explode in front of him.
Judging from the results of the four touches, this human seems to have four different identities - old male, young male, old female and young female, which can be said to cover almost all ages and genders.
And this question is not clear, "Which species of human beings" refers to the division of people such as Caucasoids, Negroids, and Indians, or simply refers to the difference between the dead and the living Woolen cloth?
"There are five seconds left, let's enter our happy countdown~ I don't know if this game will end with the failure of our participants~"
"five……"
What will be the correct answer?What kind of person will possess these four factors that obviously cannot be put together? !
"Four……"
Time was getting tighter, and Jiang Xun started a fierce brainstorming in his brain.He always feels that these four completely different styles are the key points of this game.
"three……!"
Miss Dungchi's voice was getting higher and higher, like a soprano coloratura singer, the excitement in her voice was about to break through the sky.
"two……!"
Before Miss Dungchi said "1", a certain series of famous films flashed through Jiang Lai's mind.
He thought he should know the answer.The question and the four opportunities to touch were indeed able to be combined together. What made him feel weird was actually very natural after knowing the answer.
So, he opened his mouth to say those two words, and the festive music representing the success of the quiz was played from the Walkman, which was deafening.
Coupled with the strenuous exercise before, not only is Jiang Shui's forehead covered with beads of sweat, but his whole body is also sweating. The clothes on his upper body stick to his skin like a second layer of skin. Same.
He can imagine how helpless those players who entered this special game by mistake before would be in such a panic situation, and may not even be able to survive the first level of the "Lucky One" game. In the end, due to the lack of oxygen in the coffin, he died of suffocation.
Fortunately, Jiang Lai encountered such an extreme situation, and his mentality was relatively stable.He thought that Si Yufeng wouldn't be too flustered after waking up. He didn't know what the content of the first game - "Sentimental and Sorrowful" was. The name shouldn't sound offensive. I hope Si Yufeng That side can persist until the final game level.
