Chapter 20 Masquerade Ball
There is a familiar feeling of dizziness in front of my eyes.
When Jane regained consciousness quietly, he found that he was staying in a resplendent hall, holding a glass of red wine, sitting in a hidden corner, through the gap between the branches and leaves of the green radish hanging not far away, he saw the Dancing men and women.
His face seemed to be covered with something. He reached out and touched it. It was a mask with uneven surfaces and hollow patterns.
Jane took a deep breath quietly, the corset unique to the nineteenth century almost killed half of his life, the bow tie around his neck made him breathless, and the bucket hat on his head was about to break his neck... He reckoned that before the ball started, he would be tortured to death by this outfit.
He is so difficult.
Taking off the heavy top hat on her head and loosening the tie, Jian Qiao finally felt that her breathing was easier.
He casually picked up the Civilization Staff that was put aside, and decided to meet up with the person he had just agreed to cooperate with.
Go out from this corner and pass through a door. Outside is an open-air square. The ground is spelled out with different patterns of marble. In the middle of the square is a tall fountain. The crystal mermaid is carved into a singing appearance. The square There are exquisite pillars erected at intervals around the pillars, with flowers hanging down like willow silk on the top of the pillars, which are fragrant, and each pillar is connected by different colored ribbons, and the whole square reveals an indescribable elegance.
There are men and women wearing exquisite costumes constantly walking through it. Boys wear clean and straight gowns, and girls wear gorgeous skirts. The skirts sway as they walk, and the fabrics shimmer in the bright sunlight.
The sky is clear, the wind is filled with the sweet smell of cakes, and the crisp chirping of birds is heard in the distance. This is a completely different feeling from the previous additional question.
It's not dead silent and weird, but gentle and lively, like someone handing you a sweet cotton candy when you're happy, the lights that light up all the way when it's dark, soothing light music when you sleep...all the manifestations that can be imagined beautiful.
Is the golden numbered additional question actually such a special treatment?
Jane walked quietly through the marble square, and walked slowly along a stone path, at the end of which was a swing, with a few green vines wrapped around the swing, blooming delicate flowers tenderly and shyly.
On the lawn behind the swing, a fluffy little squirrel poked out half of its head, moved its ears, and vigilantly hugged half a pine cone in its arms.
Opposite the swing is a garden where flowers bloom in different seasons. When Jane walked quietly through the middle of the garden, she could hear someone whispering among the flowers.
It was the elf who peeked at him.
They are only half the size of a thumb, with a pair of butterfly-shaped transparent wings on the back, and their appearance is a bit unclear from a distance, but the elf in the place where the roses are in full bloom has red hair, the one with lavender has purple hair, and the one with cornflower has blue hair , Tulip has yellow hair, and Rose has pink hair...
Fairies of various hair colors were hiding under the stamens or leaves, only a few bold ones fluttered their small wings and tried to fly in front of him.
A few elves pushed and pushed each other in front of him, and after a while, one of them flew out cautiously, clutching a petal the size of a fingernail, and timidly handing it to him.
Jane took the petals quietly, and the petals melted on his fingertips like a snowflake.
Slightly cool.
The elf who gave him the petals showed a bright smile on his round bun face, chirped on his left cheek, and then quickly plunged back among his companions. A group of elves scattered with a splash, and many blooming The flowers closed one after another, caged the embarrassed little cutie inside.
"Have you received the blessing from the flower elf?"
Jane turned her head quietly, and behind her was the girl he was looking for. She was wearing a goose yellow dress, and she looked a bit like Disney's Princess Belle.
"Ning Zhi."
"Jian Jing."
The two exchanged names.
Jian Qiao was the first to ask: "Did you receive the reminder for the additional questions?"
"No." Ning Zhi spread her hands, "When I first came here, I was near Huahai, and then I received a message from the elf."
"I don't think this topic is normal." Jane quietly motioned her to go to the open-air tables and chairs next to her, and the two found a random place, sat down and began to analyze the situation.
"Golden numbered additional questions are different from the first two additional questions I encountered. The first additional question I encountered was [Thoughts on Harvest], which temporarily opened up a space in the museum. After the end, the space was restored and consumed. The most is the three-hour visit time of the museum, the score is five points, and the logo is silver.
The second one is [Clare Manor]. When the topic was started, I entered a different space. I spent three days in it, and the museum took a quarter of an hour.The score is ten and the logo is golden. "
"I've also experienced two additional questions." Ning Zhi sat on the seat and rolled up her skirt, "The first one is [Laiya Lakeside], which is also a different space. I stayed for five days and consumed 25 minutes of museum time. The score is ten, and the sign is golden. The other is [Hubert’s Party], a temporary space, which is consistent with the time flow of the museum, barely survived, and has no points.”
"The flow of time in the temporary space is the same as in the museum, but each day in the different space is equivalent to 5 minutes of the museum's time." Jian Qiao summarized the situation of the two people, "The situation of the golden number is unknown, but the key prompt of the additional question is delayed .”
"The golden additional question feels completely different from the ordinary additional question." Ning Zhi added, "The golden additional question is not as paranoid, dark and crazy as the two I have experienced before. It feels very comfortable and natural."
This is an indescribable mysterious feeling. You can feel that the degree of danger has decreased, but the difficulty has increased.
Because you don't know when you will trigger the prompt of the additional question, and it is also possible that your own understanding is quite different from the final requirement of the additional question.
So what they have to do now is to try to figure out the situation here as much as possible, and then find the key point that triggers the prompt of the additional question.
"Should we act together, or separately?" Ning Zhi asked him.
"Let's act together. I found it from the dance floor. Usually there are men and women together on the road." Jian quietly stood up and made a gentleman's invitation to her, "Two people take cover from each other."
"I really didn't expect to have such an encounter one day. It's like something in a novel suddenly happened in real life." Ning Zhi lifted her skirt and told him in a low voice, "I've already looked for the road on the left. , there is the back kitchen of the banquet, there is nothing suspicious. But there is a big door at the end of the road on the right, do you want to go there and have a look first?"
"When you leave the dance floor, you will pass a marble square, and there are two rows of waiters standing in the northernmost corner of the square, as if waiting for someone.
There are two possibilities. One is that some important person has not yet appeared, so the prompt for the additional question has not yet been triggered.
The other is that not all the people who came to the dance have arrived, and there are more characters who will appear and can be used to find clues. "
"It's easy to cooperate with smart people." Ning Zhi used the action of arranging the hairpins on her hair, "Do you want to go to the place I mentioned first?"
"Go there first, if there is really someone to appear on the stage, it will definitely not be silent."
When the two were talking, they were relatively close together. From a distance, it seemed that they were a close couple talking, and they did not attract the attention of the dark eyes.
Walking on the road on the right, Jian Jing felt something was wrong.
The flowers on both sides of the road gradually withered from luxuriant, leaving only strange-shaped dead leaves and dead branches. The neat bluestone slabs on the ground became less and less, and finally there were only scattered gravel, and the overgrown grass almost covered the road.There is obviously no one to take care of it here, and it has been abandoned for a long time.
It's hard to imagine, from the dance floor to the exquisite plaza, to the lawn like a fairy tale beside the road, and a large group of flower elves in the sea of flowers... Theoretically, such an unreasonable place should not exist here.
When we reached the end of this road, the vegetation on the ground was sparse, exposing a large area of loess. At the end of the loess was a huge rusted iron gate, which was covered with dying creepers.
Through the gaps between the ivy branches and leaves, a castle can be vaguely seen.
The pointed tower top was built into a sawtooth-like castle window sill, and the broken pieces of dull glass were inlaid on the windows.It may be because of the ball, the spires, platforms, and gates of the castle are all tied with ribbons, but these ribbons are either scarlet, like roses blooming from a sea of blood, or black, revealing a lifeless and ominous , mixed with some other colors in the middle, the whole castle presents a dark purple and dark gray tone.
There are two rows of trees planted at the gate of the castle, the trees are already dead, and there are a few crows standing on the dead branches in disorder, with scarlet eyes, flying black feathers all over the sky, and the shrill sound of "croaking" can be heard vaguely.
The castle was built on the edge of a cliff, and this gloomy castle seemed to fall down anytime and anywhere.
With this door as the boundary, the sky outside the door is gray, as if a monstrous storm is about to break out at any moment, but the weather inside the door is clear and sunny, and fluffy clouds are like cotton candy piled in the sky.
These are two completely different worlds.
The inside is a fairy tale, and the outside is a horror legend.
Jian quietly felt a large rusty lock among the dry branches and leaves of the ivy. The keyhole was corroded, but the lock was still very strong. He picked up a stone from the side and smashed it tentatively. The iron door was shaken. There was a clang, but the lock did not move at all, and there was no sign that it was about to be smashed open.
"Who are you!" A roar suddenly came from behind, and a man dressed as a soldier came towards them angrily, with a long sword on his waist.
When he got closer, he found that Jian Qiao and the two were wearing the unique costumes of nobles, and his tone involuntarily slowed down: "No matter who you are, don't go this way. Didn't you see that the door is locked?"
"I'm really sorry." Ning Zhi lifted the hem of her skirt and saluted him, showing a sweet smile, "I just saw a castle behind the door, so I'm a little curious."
"Castle?" The soldier asked her strangely, "There is a cliff behind the door, where is the castle?"
When Jane regained consciousness quietly, he found that he was staying in a resplendent hall, holding a glass of red wine, sitting in a hidden corner, through the gap between the branches and leaves of the green radish hanging not far away, he saw the Dancing men and women.
