Infinite Nerves [Infinity]

"Is it my eyes... why are there 37 people?"

As the trembling voice fell, Qianwu almost caught the moment when everyone's breathing stopped, and the audience was silent.

His eyes quickly swept across the masks present, seven lions, seven smiling Buddhas, seven deer heads, seven demons, and seven tengus.

There is no more.

Qian Wu frowned and said, "Is the count wrong?"

"No, no..." But the little stutterer replied first: "Check, check, divide, check separately..."

Fear made him completely speechless, Jiang Chen said: "If you go through the figures quickly, it is indeed 37. But if you count the number of masks in each group, there are no people in any group .”

Qianwu's back suddenly went cold.

Someone said: "Perhaps that thing didn't want to be easily locked into a group, and it used some kind of trick to change its shape quickly."

No one made a sound, their eyes collided all over the place, they muttered something, and everyone was counting.

Qianwu tried several times, no matter how much he paid attention to his peripheral vision when checking people, it didn't help, he couldn't see anyone running around, but the numbers were just wrong.

Jiang Chen asked everyone to stand together in groups—following Wuqi 35 and Jiaqianwu 56.But as long as everyone is disturbed again, there will be another figure.

"What the hell is it!" A deer head exploded completely, and he took two steps back from the crowd, looking around with his shoulders in his arms.

A lion head suddenly said: "Human beings. Human beings are emphasized many times in the mission description, which means that there are other things in this house that are not human beings. The sign also says that if players want to leave all of them, they can't do nothing, and the ban on cannibalism has been lifted. , what does this mean?"

Everyone suppressed collectively for a few seconds, and a demon said: "We need to kill the thing that is mixed with us. There may be failures, and manslaughter is allowed."

After the words fell, the hall was quiet again, and 36 masked people looked at each other behind the two eye holes of the mask.

Qian Wu felt that Jiang Chen was coming up, his arms were squeezed together with him, and his heart was a little more relaxed.

"It doesn't necessarily mean that." Qianwu took the initiative to say: "Allowing cannibalism is probably just a mechanism for our nerves to induce our death. If everyone has this kind of thinking, wouldn't it kill everyone except themselves People are the most reliable? Taking a step back, success does not necessarily mean killing that thing. It is already the tenth book, at least we have not encountered a real boss before.

You rarely come across copies that come to escape, right?

A smiling Buddha turned his face calmly, and faced him with that laughing cold mask, but the eyes behind the mask had no warmth.

"But allowing that thing to mix among us, doesn't it just meet the definition of accomplishing nothing? Why do you want to instigate us to give up survival?"

Qian Wu frowned, "I didn't tell you to give up survival, I just advised everyone to calm down—"

The other party interrupted: "Your shirt is a little see through, the red nerves are so clear, but the blue nerves are invisible. Your calmness talent is very poor, what qualifications do you have to calm us down?"

Another Smiley Buddha said, "Yeah. And you're the odd one out—how do we know you're not that filth?"

Peng Peng immediately became angry, "What nonsense?! We are a team, I can make sure!"

Zhong Liye and Qu Ying also made guarantees, Jiang Chen didn't say a word, just stayed with Qian Wu for a long time before he said: "What do you want?"

The two smiling Buddhas looked at each other, and one sneered, "I don't want to do anything. There are so many people who have promised you that although they can't fully believe it, they can't do anything to you for the time being. But we are not your teammates, so don't point fingers. "

Xiao Jieba suddenly clapped his hands, and said anxiously: "Don't, don't, stop arguing! Let's each, each of us want, let's make, let's make a secret sign."

"How?" Qianwu looked at him.

Little stutterer took a deep breath, pointed his fingers over the other smiling Buddhas one by one, and said slowly, trying not to stutter: "Smile A, smile B. Lion A, Lion B... Devil A, Devil B, Deer A , Tengu A, do you understand? Da, everyone, write on the chest, the chest now."

"It's useless." Qu Ying sighed, "How do you ensure that that thing doesn't sneak in? When it appears, just replace someone who isn't there."

Jiang Chen said, "I think it's a good idea."

Another lion nodded in approval, "Just now everyone stood in groups, with seven people in each group, three people in a row, and two empty in the third row. This way, you can quickly know which group is abnormal through the formation at a glance. In this case, the thing Disappeared, it was mixed in after being disrupted. This shows that it dare not appear when we can count quickly. But we can’t always line up to talk. If there is a big word on the chest, everyone is a special individual, It can also improve the recognition efficiency at a glance. This can at least ensure that it does not dare to appear when everyone gathers, and ensures that the information we convey is true.”

"It's a good idea, everyone come here to write code names." A deer-headed woman touched her clothes from the neckline and took out a lipstick.

Peng Peng swallowed, "All the lucky bags on our bodies disappeared along with the automatic dressing, where did you get the lipstick?"

The deer-headed girl smiled, "This is a small prop. The mark drawn out will fluoresce at night and cannot be washed off with water. I have been hiding it in my bra all the time."

Peng Peng: "..."

"Unexpected, right? The nerve didn't take off the female player's bra."

Peng Peng subconsciously rubbed his feet, and the atmosphere was once awkward.

Everyone lined up to claim the code, but Qianwu was in no hurry.Jiang Chen next to him looked up at the house, and when he approached, Qianwu whispered in a voice that only two people could hear: "Actually, there is another strategy of counting people, which is more efficient than reading words, and it is inconvenient to disturb everyone to line up." available at any time."

Jiang Chen hummed, "I know what you mean."

There are five people in the team, and the four people except Qianwu stare at the same mask as themselves at the same time, and Qianwu is in charge of the remaining tengu group.Only if they stare at the people in each group at the same time under their noses, can they catch the extra one.

But there are two conditions for doing so.

One is not to make that thing aware of this strategy, that is to say, it cannot be announced publicly.

The second is to ensure that the people in the squad are "real".

Qianwu can only be sure of Jiang Chen, because of intuition.Although Jiang Chen has turned into an unfamiliar voice at this moment, there are still six almost identical "Jiang Chen" scattered around him.But Qianwu is too familiar with this person beside him, he is familiar with him as long as he moves slightly, uses a particle of tone, looks or looks away, and he can recognize him immediately.

When Peng Peng came back from writing, there were two bright red characters on his chest - "Xiao Bing".

He kept muttering angrily, "What are you laughing at, can you change it for me? Xiaojia is also fine."

The "devil" beside him sighed after hearing this, "It's good if you have it, don't pick and choose."

"Can you not choose. I just got my hat back, and my horse was confiscated again. I have never been a man from morning to night." He spat.

The deer head girl touched his back, "Why do I feel that you are getting more and more irritable, I will see later, if there is a kitchen, I will make you some mung bean soup to relieve your anger."

In fact, if the members of the small team speak, Qianwu is very sure that they can tell the truth from the fake, after all, everyone has gone through so many life and death dungeons together.

He kept his eyes on the movements of these three, and when Jiang Chen finished writing, he said, "Let's have a meeting first."

After finishing writing about everyone except Qianwu, the deer head girl lowered her head and wrote the word "Lu Ji" on her clothes.Because of the angle, her handwriting appears upside down in everyone's eyes.

"Everyone, go upstairs. According to experience, there should be guest rooms."

There are indeed guest rooms upstairs.

In fact, this time is no different from all the previous dungeons confined in a specific building. The facilities in the house are complete and the food reserves are also sufficient.The public area on the first floor, and the guest rooms on the second and third floors.There are a total of twenty guest rooms, which means that most people will need to find a roommate.

If there is any difference, it is probably that each guest room is very compact, the corridor is long and circuitous, and the usable area of ​​the house is much lower than the building area.

Everyone found roommates to share rooms one after another, and when Qianwu and the others picked them, there were only a few rooms on the west side of the second floor that were the most blocked, and the closest one was Stutter.

Stuttering is "Smile A", and the roommate is "Lion B" who is cold and not very talkative.

"That—" Qu Ying turned to Peng Peng and Zhong Liye, "Can I squeeze in with you two? I'm a little scared, and I don't want to live alone or have a roommate."

Zhong Liye immediately nodded and agreed.

"Then these two rooms." Jiang Chen pointed to the two most blocked rooms, "I and Qianwu are in the penultimate room, and the three of you are in the penultimate room. Call if you have something to do."

Jieba and Shiyi live in the fourth-to-last room, the door is open, and the sound insulation of the house is not very good, standing here can clearly hear the stammering voice.

He really talked a lot, he stuttered and he was able to speak, and he couldn't utter a complete sentence after speaking for a long time, which made people's brain hurt after listening for a long time.

Not long after, Shi B came out from inside, without saying a word, but his footsteps were a little impatient.He went out into the hallway and tapped on the walls, as if to determine if there was a cavity.

"Do you feel that the mask represents a certain personality?" Qianwu said suddenly.

Before Jiang Chen could make a sound, Zhong Liye nodded, "Yes."

Although everyone has different personalities, people with the same mask have a strong commonality.For example, the lion heads obviously have the bearing of a leader. The one who came out to lead the team and echoed Jiang Chen just now was the lion head.Lutou is better at appeasing everyone, not smart enough but can do his best in details.Smiling Buddhas are generally good-tempered and good-natured.Tengu are all introverted girls who don't like to talk much.

Peng Peng counted with his fingers, then turned left suddenly to look at "Devil C" in front of him.

Demon Bing Zhongliye: "?"

Peng Peng said: "Say! Hand over your old background!"

Zhong Liye said helplessly: "It's a devil, can't you tell by looking at my mask?"

"You? Devil?" Peng Peng's tone revealed disgust, "Forget it, brother 'veterinarian'."

"Devil-like coldness and concentration, I believe." Jiang Chen said lightly, "Have you forgotten how this guy makes scones?"

Peng Peng: "..."

Qianwu was also shocked, remembering the not-so-good scene, and couldn't help but glared at Jiang Chen behind the mask.

Peng Peng suddenly pointed to his mask and said, "Then what kind of personality is Qianwu? It's the same as the miniature obtained in the hot spring dungeon."

"I don't know." Qianwu sighed, "Now the lucky bag is not brought in, there are no props, and there is no way to verify it."

Peng Peng shook his head, "No need to verify, it's that painting, I remember it very clearly. What does it mean, it's scary..."

Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Maybe it means cute."

Qianwu: "..."

Peng Peng's eyes behind the mask were very empty, he turned around and said, "I don't know what that monster is, but you must not be human, so leave the team by yourself."

There are four kitchens, but they are all small, and the pots are also small in size.Everyone had no choice but to take turns cooking in the dormitory.

Peng Peng, as the representative of the team, went to play rock-paper-scissors with others, but he was the last one. Calculated according to half an hour per group, the team would not have dinner until after twelve o'clock at night.

"Hey, I really can't do without the Daji card." He sat on Qianwujiang Chen's bed and sighed, "Why do I have a bad feeling... I won't die in this dungeon Bar……"

"Don't talk nonsense." Zhong Liye patted him on the head.

The code names of the squad members are relatively uniform, except for Jiang Chen who is a lion, and the other three are all ranked as "C".

"What was the situation in your last island?" Jiang Chen asked, "Both Qianwu and I went back to the last scene before entering the nerve, which should have some enlightening significance, but we didn't have time to guess it and went directly to the dungeon gone."

Zhong Liye said, "Peng Peng and I also went to the scene before entering the nerve. Coincidentally, we were on the same street. I went to another veterinary friend's clinic to get things, and when I came out, I had a used one on my sleeve. Needle, I pricked my finger as I pulled it out, and that was my entrance."

Peng Peng nodded, "Yes. I was drinking milk tea while walking on that street. The wind blew my hat away and dropped it under the electric pole. I bent down to pick it up. There was a small mirror attached to the electric pole. I looked at it. The self in the mirror suddenly looked like my dad, and he came in after being startled."

Qu Ying said: "Me too. I was in Ying's kitchen. I accidentally cut my finger while taking my brother's kitchen knife, and then I came in."

The opportunity for everyone to come in seems to be varied.

Qian Wu frowned and said, "So your entrances are, respectively, discarded disposable needles, small mirrors on telephone poles, and kitchen knives? From this point of view, the probability of the entrance being the same thing is higher than that of the orderly who contacted me and Jiang Chen at the same time. It doesn't matter."

"There is another feature." Zhong Liye pushed down his glasses, "We all relive the scene of that day in Lidao, until the moment the entrance is re-triggered, we switch directly to the next copy."

Jiang Chen nodded, "It means that there is a clue to the entrance in the last picture of Lidao."

Qian Wu frowned, and turned to ask Jiang Chen, "What are we doing in Ridao?"

Jiang Chen groaned, "I'm auctioning that nervous portrait of you, just the one on your face, "No Name", starting at one yuan, no one adds—"

"Okay." Qianwu turned his head indifferently, "At that moment, we were not together in the real world at all. The nerve was intentional, and we just didn't want us to guess where the entrance was."

Zhong Liye thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Have you ever thought that the two of you may not have the same nerve entrance? Sitting on the same boat may not necessarily have the same entrance. What's more, we haven't found out what Jiang Chen has... Uh...mental illness, maybe he was just pulled in by his nerves by mistake."

Jiang Chen said lightly: "If that's what you said, the entrance is only related to Qianwu, and our last island should appear outside the mountains."

"Very annoying!!" Peng Peng stood up suddenly, and kicked the bed angrily, "God's nerves!"

Qu Ying said in a low voice: "Stop scolding, you don't even have a lucky card anymore, be careful and your nerves will really kill you."

Peng Peng: "...I'm sorry, nervous father."

Jiang Chen told everyone how to keep everyone on the same team, and besides that, he also asked for a code to prove his identity.

The door of the room was closed, but no one knew if there was any dirt in the room, Jiang Chen thought for a long time, "Do you still remember Peng Peng's nickname?"

Zhong Liye said seriously: "Are you talking about the name of that little devil possessed by Beelzebub?"

Strong.

Jiang Chen: "Well. I won't say what it is specifically. When we meet, we can say a word or two casually, and it is enough to form a word with the same sound as that word."

Peng Peng, "zhuo?"

Zhong Liye: "...ji?"

Qu Ying held back for a long time, "Big..."

Jiang Chen nodded, "It's all right, but these three words have been used, and they can't be used after that."

Qianwu said desperately: "Do you want to be so naughty?" Jiang Lu really likes word games.

Jiang Chen was serious, "It's already the easiest way, and I still have to assume that the ghost in the dungeon hasn't graduated from primary school."

Everyone: "..."

Peng Peng pointed at the floor gloomyly, "Be careful that thing comes out of the ground and roars at you!"

As soon as the words fell, there was an earth-shattering sound of metal falling downstairs, like a pot falling from a high place, followed by a man's scream.

Peng Peng was completely numb, before Qian Wu could react, Jiang Chen had already pushed Peng Peng away, turned and walked out the door.

Everyone went downstairs with bangs and bangs. As soon as they got downstairs, they could already smell a vague smell of blood in the air.

Follow the stench to find the westernmost kitchen. "Devil B" knelt on the ground with a kitchen knife oozing blood in his hand, and fell face down in the pool of blood beside him. The words on his chest were invisible. , but it can be seen from the shape of the mask that it is a smiling Buddha.

The back of Xiaowu's neck was cut with a knife, and his flesh was rolled up.Demon B continued to chop fiercely like crazy, until the back of the deceased was also bloody.

Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, and the narrow kitchen was like a purgatory on earth.

"You... what are you doing?" Qu Ying tremblingly said: "Didn't you just say that you shouldn't do anything to your own people easily? If you have doubts, can't you drag everyone into a meeting?"

"He's that ghost—" Devil B said with a hoarse smile, "I just found a piece of meat that seemed a bit sour, I asked him to come up to smell it, and when he came up to it, there were two staggered sniffing sounds."

Peng Peng tied his tongue and said, "Are you sure..."

Devil B nodded, "I'm sure, you believe me. I'm also a veteran who has gone so many books. I'm different from you. I have left several books that depended on killing the boss to survive. If I didn't act decisively , I would have died long ago."

Jiang Chen stepped forward to pick up the box of meat and smelled it, there was indeed a very faint sour smell.He put down the box and asked, "But how do you know which of the two sniffing sounds is the ghost? What if the ghost sniffed invisible? You might have killed a teammate."

Devil B shook his head violently, "No, it can't be wrong. When I asked him to come over and smell it, he hesitated a little, and kept staring at me. If he's okay, can I have a problem?"

As soon as the voice fell, the smell of blood in the room suddenly disappeared.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the flesh and body of the people on the ground suddenly disappeared at a speed visible to the human eye. The mask fell to the ground, and then the two legs disappeared, the trousers collapsed, and then the buttocks and the body...

"What does this mean—" The girls couldn't help but backed away, and some of them had already covered their eyes.

Qu Ying trembled: "Can human beings evaporate so quickly?"

Jiang Chen looked at the scene on the ground in surprise, and looked at Demon B in disbelief, "Is it really possible for you to cut it right?"

Soon, the body of the corpse disappeared completely, leaving only two arms still wrapped in sleeves, scattered on the ground.

Everyone waited for a long time, but the two arms had no intention of disappearing.

Devil B put down the kitchen knife, swallowed, "What, what does this mean... which thing has... two arms?"

The author has something to say: Little nerve: I seem to hear someone scolding me again.

Little Nerve: Who is who? Who is it?

Little nerve: I can't catch who I am so irritable...

Little Nerve: Floor!Don't sleep, do you know who it is?

Floor: ... can I do it?
