Infinite Nerves [Infinity]

This tango dance music uses the violin as the main instrument, and the accompaniment in two or four beats has a strong sense of frustration. As soon as the music starts, Qianwu will automatically follow the music and step out of the dance.

Jiang Chen was very close to him, holding him with his right arm.Breathing close at hand, they abide by the rules not to look at each other.

When the positioning sound sounded, he and Jiang Chen shook their heads to their left at the same time, their faces crossed, Jiang Chen whispered: "Did you see anything?"

Qianwu's eyes swept over the array of food on the long table, and suddenly fixed on a corner of the long table.

The small copper music box squatted honestly at the corner of the table, quiet and unobtrusive.

Qian Wu hesitated, "Is there a music box on the table yesterday?"

"No." Jiang Chen said, "Yesterday, I have been paying attention to the objects related to the music box. I looked for it in the dance hall, but there is nothing at all."

Another staccato, they staggered their heads, Jiang Chen saw the place Qian Wu was looking at just now.

"Yesterday there was an aluminum ice bucket with two bottles of red wine in it and a white handkerchief on it. I remember it clearly." Jiang Chen said, "This music box is new."

Qianwu hummed, "Go and see after the dance."

The sound of the music became more and more intense, and their dance steps seemed to be gradually out of control. Even in the weird dungeon, they couldn't help but get involved in it.

There seems to be an intoxicating fragrance in the ballroom. When I first stepped in, I felt it was too vulgar, but after smelling it for a long time, I felt distracted.

Before the next staccato sounded, Qianwu collected himself, and then turned his head solemnly and decisively in accordance with the dance etiquette.However, at the moment when his and Jiang Chen's cheeks intersected, Jiang Chen's handsome outline seemed to be a little different from usual in Yu Guangli. Qianwu looked at the long table on the other side and thought for a while before realizing that it seemed that the outline of the bridge of the nose was slightly different. a few millimeters longer.

Ordinary people don't care about the faint few millimeters, but they cannot escape the painter's intuition.

Another staccato, when he shook his head, he was surprised to find that not only the outline of the bridge of the nose of the person in the peripheral vision changed, but even the position of the cheekbones were lifted up.

Every staccato, Jiang Chen's bones seemed to be undergoing subtle and vivid changes, which made his heart itch, and he wanted to disregard the rules prohibiting looking at each other to take a closer look.

"Jiang Chen." Qian Wu resisted his thoughts and called out: "Do you think my appearance has changed?"

Jiang Chen didn't reply, and Qian Wu suddenly realized that Jiang Chen hadn't made a sound for more than a minute.He leads the dance steps with extreme skill and naturalness, like a soulless dancing machine.

After repeating the staccato countless times, Qianwu's heart completely went cold when he shook his head once.

The person who pulled him to dance was no longer a human being. After gradually changing his face and facial features, the skin and flesh faded from that person's face, and he became a white bone.

The hand that was holding him tightly turned into a bone of bones, and the bone hugged him intimately, and when he turned his head, there was a clicking sound in his ear.

From the corner of the eye, the skull seemed to be smiling, looking at him with a sinister smile.

"Qianwu."

Qian Wu suddenly heard Jiang Chen's voice, which came from the hollow cavity of the skeleton.

His whole body was shaken, and he continued to dance and shake his head to the music, and the bone said in Jiang Chen's voice, "Why do I feel that the flesh and blood all over my body hurt like being corroded, is there some biting insect on my face? You Help me take a look."

Qianwu didn't dare to speak, he tightly pursed his lips, danced and shook his head to the music, cold sweat dripped down his cheeks, the bones hugged him tighter and tighter, he could only bite the bullet and pretend he didn't know.

The music became more and more intense, and the brilliant staccato seemed to be able to end the life of the dancer. After an unknown period of time, he suddenly felt the bones in his hands loosen and turned back to a warm touch. The sound of the violin stopped, and his feet seemed to move automatically. stopped spinning.

Qianwu still didn't dare to turn his head, until he saw the other players in the field of vision staring at each other in horror and asking about what happened just now.

"Baby." Jiang Chen's tone was full of fear and exhaustion, and he raised his hand to caress his cheek.

Qian Wu finally turned his head around, Jiang Chen's clear and vivid eyebrows were within his vision.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

"I saw your face change just now, gradually becoming blond, pale skin with freckles, and then simply turned into a bone." Jiang Chen's tone was a bit difficult, "But I didn't look back, how about you, hold back ?"

Qianwu nodded slightly.

The dance was over, but there was no judgment on the tapestry for the time being.The players panicked.

Zhao Bing panicked: "I just turned around, is it okay?"

The man who teamed up with her turned pale and said, "I've turned back too—you told me to turn back, and you asked me to save you."

"I don't have one." Zhao Bing's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he stammered, "What are you calling me? I didn't call you at all. I don't even know what your name is. Aren't we a random team?"

The little man asked, "What happened after turning around?"

Zhao Bing's lip was bitten by herself, and she murmured: "I...Although the rules are true, it's hard to keep this kind of rule in mind. When I shake my head, I feel that his eyes are not right. Subconsciously, I looked back at him. He smiled at me and told me not to be afraid, and there was nothing shady in the castle, but then—"

Her lips were trembling, and her words were crying, "Later, his appearance gradually changed, and finally he became a white bone! The white bone kept smiling at me, and I wanted to turn my head away, but I couldn't turn it back. Stare at him."

The more she said, the paler the faces of several players in the crowd.

"Could it not be, this is really the trigger condition for death." Zhao Bing murmured incredulously, and fell to the ground. Following her movements, another eight or nine players collapsed and knelt on the carpet at the same time.

Jiang Chen said: "Who couldn't help but look back at the dance partner just now?"

Sparsely, twelve people raised their hands.Looking at the dozen or so people, Qianwu couldn't help feeling cold, and subconsciously turned around. Fortunately, Peng Peng and the three of them were not caught.

Zhao Bing cried: "Who would have thought that the boat would capsize here, and the reminder of dance etiquette is also very weak. People have not reacted, and they have subconsciously stepped on the trick!"

Her dance partner knelt on the ground with her hands in her hair, collapsed and trembling: "I have gone through so many bloody dungeons, and finally came here, I have so many points—"

He said that he desperately rolled up the sleeves of his dress, and showed his arm to the air, "Look at your nerves, I'm already over 50 calm, and I'm almost [-] sensitive, and if I go to a dozen copies, I might be able to live Get out! Nervous, I am a player with good talent, please take pity on me, give me another chance—”

Before the words finished, handwriting suddenly appeared on the tapestry.

【The end of the dance】

[12 people did not complete the dance, 8 of them were partners for each other, and the other 4 people involved their partners who did not make mistakes, and the love was discovered. 】

"What?!" A man suddenly went mad, "I didn't look back, I didn't make a mistake, why should I be implicated because of my teammates' mistakes, I don't accept it!"

Most of the players were still in a daze. A little girl thought she was fine, but suddenly thought of something, turned her head to look at her dancing partner who was kneeling on the ground, and instantly turned pale and backed away.

[Therefore, a total of 16 dancers need to practice hard, and the remaining 5 dancers performed perfectly, thank you. 】

[Please accept the hospitality, go to bed early after meals, good night. 】

The writing disappeared, and the hourglass restarted its countdown.

"Is this... the end?" Zhao Bing rubbed his swollen eyes from crying, "Nothing happened, just need to practice?"

Qianwu originally wanted to say that practice may not be as simple as he imagined, but he looked at Zhao Bing's eyes that refused to give up hope, and finally didn't have the heart to say it, just sighed softly.

26 people came in, and 16 of them were judged to be wrong, so that there were only a few people who had the appetite to eat.Qu Ying took the food to comfort Zhao Bing, Qian Wu glanced at them, turned and walked towards the corner of the long table.

The music box here is exactly the same as the one placed on the chest of drawers, but when the lid is opened, the two small figures inside are very clear, without any trace of rust or mottled.

One of them was dressed in armor, with a dagger hanging from his waist, majestic and dignified.The other was slender, blond, and dressed in a white court dress.

They embraced each other tightly, and were swinging their heads to the left, their eyes were serious and eager, as if even if they were going in opposite directions, they couldn't hide their intense desire for each other.

"Douglas and Cyril."

Qianwu gently caressed the villain's body with his fingers, wanting to pick up the music box for a closer look, but found that the three copper feet were welded to the long table.

Jiang Chen reached out and twisted the clockwork, and the music started immediately, it was the tango music just now, and the two villains also moved on the turntable.

"What are you playing with?" The little man came over and asked with a frown, "Why does this music box play tango? Our room is full of waltzes."

Jiang Chen paused for a moment before whispering: "It's strange, there was no such thing on the table last night. Logically speaking, one night of waltz and one night of tango, since there is a matching music box in the ballroom for tango night, why is there no such thing for waltz night? "

Qianwu didn't say a word, but his eyes were fixed on the villain representing Douglas.

It is a very powerful armor, and it is not difficult to imagine the picture of a tall general jumping up and looking down on everything.He suddenly felt a little desolate, as if he could see Douglas ordering to kill all the original rulers of the castle, only the servants and the blond and blue-eyed young master survived.

Douglas had a short knife hanging on his waist. The knife was not out of its sheath, but its sharpness could be faintly felt.

Jiang Chen suddenly made a suspicious voice, Qian Wu raised his head, but saw Jiang Chen looking around, as if he was looking for something.

"What's wrong?" Qianwu asked.

"This knife handle looks familiar." Jiang Chen said, his eyes suddenly fixed, and he strode towards the other side of the long table.

Before he got there, Qianwu had already seen what he said.

On the opposite table was a huge grilled beef rib, under which there were exquisite dinner plates and a dozen table knives.The handle of one of the knives is slightly curved, and there is a round piece of wood on the handle that seems to be different from other places, slightly reddish.

Qianwu turned his head to look at Douglas in the music box. Douglas' short knife has a curved handle with a ruby ​​embedded in it.

Although they are far apart, there is a subtle connection.

Qian Wu walked over, Jiang Chen was picking up the knife and looking at it.

"I have a hunch." Jiang Chen said in a low voice.

Jiang Chen seldom uses the word intuition, he has always believed in rigorous reasoning, and perhaps he seldom really has intuition.

Qian Wu paused for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Do you want this knife?"

"Maybe some hidden conditions can be triggered." Jiang Chen paused as he spoke, and made a decision after a little hesitation, "Give it a try, maybe it's a chance to get sensitive points."

"We have to go." Zhong Liye said to everyone: "The hourglass will stop soon, no matter whether there is a mistake in the judgment, everyone will go back first and then discuss the countermeasures."

Everyone nodded, Qianwu and Jiang Chen turned around and went out first.Peng Peng hurriedly packed some food at the last minute and ran all the way.

Everything was going well, until Qianwu and Jiang Chen had already stepped out of the banquet hall, and after walking for a while, they suddenly heard screams coming from behind them.

Qianwu's heart skipped a beat, and he turned his head suddenly, only to see more and more people stopped at the door, they struggled hard but couldn't pull out their feet that seemed to be stuck to the ground, their upper body fell down on the ground weakly, crying Reach out to him for help.

Sixteen players who were judged to be wrong, all of them seemed to be imprisoned by the ankles of ghastly hands, unable to leave the ballroom.

The sand has leaked out, the gate is slowly closing, the people on the ground are crying out in despair, and those pale and terrified faces gradually disappear in the narrowing crack of the door.

The moment the door was tightly closed, tango music suddenly sounded in the ballroom again, and the violin played passionately. No matter how hard the players outside smashed the door, the door would not open again.

There was no sound inside, no screaming or crying, just the seemingly endless sound of violins.

Ten players stood at the door, looking at the door in front of them, their eyes gradually became empty.

After a long time, Jiang Chen raised his hand to gently cover Qianwu's ears, and whispered to him: "They should be dead, let's go back."

The little man couldn't help trembling and said: "How can you be so cold-blooded! We are all players together, and there is no competition mechanism in this dungeon—"

"Whatever you think." Jiang Chen glanced at him, his deep eyes seemed to have no emotion, and he wrote lightly: "But they are dead, and I don't know what mechanism will be triggered if they stay here. Why don't you go back and take a good wash?" Take a shower and sleep, and look for other clues tomorrow."

The little man was so angry that his face was red, and he stared at Jiang Chen, trembling all over.

After a long time, his eyes gradually turned red, and he knelt down and said tremblingly, "I understand this truth, who doesn't? But it's all life..."

Jiang Chen turned his head and nodded at the pale-faced Peng Peng and the others, and went directly upstairs past him.

When Qianwu passed by, the little man raised his head and looked over expectantly.But Qianwu only paused for a moment, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I can't give you any comfort, people with nerves can only look forward, this is my only advice."

There were 29 people last night, and now there are only ten left.The ten people went upstairs lifelessly and went back to their rooms.

"Be alert at night." Jiang Chen stood at the door and told everyone, after thinking for a while, he said: "The butler will most likely not show up, maybe Douglas will come out."

Qu Ying's face turned pale, "Will Douglas have any new tricks?"

Jiang Chen shook his head and analyzed: "I don't know. I can only guess based on the rules of the dance party. After everyone lies down, try not to open your eyes. No matter what you hear or touch, don't open your eyes until dawn. "

After returning to the room, as usual, Qianwu took a shower first.

He went into the bathroom and took off his gown. The scarlet scars attached to his white and slender body were quite magnificent.He stared into the mirror, inexplicably thinking of Cyril in the music box just now in his mind.

Delicate and fragile, with passionate and clear eyebrows.Nervous may have pinched a BOSS out of him again.

What about Douglas?Powerful general, domineering and affectionate, could it be Jiang Chen?

Qianwu was full of thoughts, and when he realized that he had soaked in the bathtub for too long, he came out drowsy, put on his nightgown, and fell directly on the bed.

When Jiang Chen came out of the shower, Qian Wu was already drowsy.The dim lamp was on the floor beside the bed, he felt Jiang Chen come over with light steps, covered the quilt for him, and turned off the bedside lamp.

In the darkness, Jiang Chen groped to get on the bed, leaned over and kissed him on the forehead, and whispered: "Good night, don't open your eyes at night."

Qianwu held on to his last sobriety and let out a hum.

Then he fell asleep.

Practical and sinking sleep, worry-free and dream-free.But halfway through the sleep, he suddenly felt heavy on his body, as if he was being pressed tightly by a person.

With this awareness, Qianwu's sobriety quickly returned.He didn't open his eyes, silently feeling the person on his body.

In fact, there is no need to open your eyes, and there is no need to ask, the person on your body is Jiang Chen.He was all too familiar with that breath and the feeling of being pressed up.

After a long time, Qianwu whispered: "Jiang Chen?"

The man didn't say anything, but lifted his chin almost forcefully and kissed him.Before Qianwu could react, his lip was bitten, and the smell of blood spread into his mouth.

He couldn't help but opened his eyes in shock and anger, and Jiang Chen's face was indeed in sight, without any change or strangeness, even his eyes were the same as usual.

Qian Wu frowned and pushed him, "What's wrong with you? It's just like this—"

Before he could finish speaking, he was pressed there and kissed again.

"Jiang Chen?" Qian Wu was stunned.

In the next second, Jiang Chen grabbed his neck fiercely.

He froze, but Jiang Chen seemed to be possessed by something, his eyes were calm and unmoving, restraining him to lower his head and continue.

When his thoughts were chaotic, Qian Wu's eyes fell on the blank tapestry behind Jiang Chen.

He seemed to understand something suddenly.

【...That night, Douglas raped Cyril, strangled Cyril's neck and almost killed him.After that...]

Jiang Chen bit his lips several times, and when he was about to suffocate him, he finally released him, with cold anger in his black eyes.

He said viciously: "Your family is gone, from now on, you can only be mine!"

"..."

Qian Wu was speechless, coughed twice and said in a hoarse voice: "If you have to say that, you can't say it's wrong—"

Jiang Chen grabbed his hair, put his lips next to his ear and said coldly: "I killed them! I just want to take everything from you and make you belong to me only! How about it, do you hate it?"

"This..." Qianwu tried his best to ignore the pain in his head, "You led the car accident of my parents? But you were only six years old at that time, right?"

"Shut up!" Jiang Chen completely lost his temper.

Qian Wu swallowed, "Let go, let's be gentle—"

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Chen reached out his hand to cover his mouth.

The author has something to say: Is the floor okay?The little nerve grabbed the edge of the bed and said in a panic: I want the floor.

Shut up.The keyboardist squatted on the ground holding the floor tiles and said, it's not good yet!

I hate beds.The little nervous murmured: I'm afraid of heights, I want the floor!
