Escape from the Madhouse [Unlimited]

At the same time, He Xiaowei and Qi Liuxing were walking together.

After inquiring about the location of the quarry, they walked all the way to the mountain road with flashlights.

Holding the flashlight in his left hand and the hilt of his sword tightly in his right hand, Qi Liu walked in front of He Xiaowei, with an attitude of being ready to defend against the enemy at any time.

On the way, He Xiaowei couldn't help but said: "How can I let such a young brother stand in front of me?"

"At this time, output is what you look at, not age." Qi Liuxing said seriously, "Once there is an emergency, just take care of me."

He Xiaowei grinned: "Sure enough, in the team... the baby daddy has the highest status!"

Qi Liuxing glanced back at him, but said nothing.

He Xiaowei said again: "You are just too serious, there is no need to keep acting young and serious. At your age, you are actually pretending to be serious, which means that you are a little boy who doesn't know what it means to be sad."

Qi Liuxing remained silent.

He Xiaowei said with emotion: "On the contrary, Qian'er is like that, smiling all day long, but he has a lot of things to think about. He is only 22 years old, not 23, right? How did he become like this? Who Is it natural to like to plot people? I guess, he must have experienced great suffering when he grows up like this."

"No way." Qi Liuxing frowned, "Although he's bankrupt, his family is quite rich."

"Do you think he looks like the kind of 'Why don't you eat minced meat'?" He Xiaowei asked.

Qi Liuxing shook his head: "Of course not."

"That's it." He Xiaowei said, "Although I can't see through what Qian'er is planning, I can see...he has suffered a lot. So brother Jianshen, he has really reached the level of Qian'er. , it's time to say 'It's a cool autumn'."

"En. I understand what you mean." Qi Liuxing continued to walk ahead while holding the sword while exploring the surrounding situation, "I have no experience, so I can only pretend to be forced."

He Xiaowei smiled: "Haha, you can't say that."

"The words are rough and not rough. I understand. If you are deep or something, people with experience will show it in their temperament. You don't need to force your face or use some body language to disguise..."

Qi Liuxing said with some embarrassment, "I really don't have that kind of experience, and I don't pretend to be like that. Hmm... I just think it doesn't matter to treat you, but when you meet the enemy, you have to be a little more serious in order to be intimidating." other side."

"Xiao Qi. In fact, you are doing well." He Xiaowei said suddenly.

Qi Liuxing: "Huh?"

"Young people become mature and grow up quickly. As everyone knows, adults actually go back to their youth. Many people envy you and still can't envy you. Youth is the most rare thing. Why do you have to have experience and let yourself become What about the deep vicissitudes?" He Xiaowei patted him on the shoulder, "The time of youth is missed in this life, and it will never be there again."

After listening, Qi Liuxing took a look at He Xiaowei, but smiled: "Brother Xiao Wei, I suddenly realized that you might be the one in the legend... Oh, I'm stupid about that word—great wisdom is like a fool. You are a person with great wisdom and foolishness."

He Xiaowei laughed "hehe" and said, "You are not the first person to praise me like that!"

A person like He Xiaowei can get along well with anyone.

The two chatted all the way and climbed all the way to the quarry halfway up the mountain. The atmosphere was very relaxed and happy.

At this moment, neither of them was fooled by the fact that Qi Liuxing's "boyhood" would come to an end so soon.

It seems that its change is not related to time, but only to the change of people's mood at a certain moment.

Soon, the two came to the quarry.

He Xiaowei took out the ignition device and was eager to try it: "Qianer said that the glass is likely to have the three primary colors of red, yellow and blue. If you encounter a flame that burns and emits purple light...

"Well, red and blue can form purple and purple, so you can't use purple flames to pass through red and blue glass, but you can use it to deal with yellow glass. Anyway, we can look for all kinds of colors!"

"I went to the trading house to find an igniter that emits a colorless flame, which can be used to burn stones for flame reaction!"

After trying several stones from different areas one after another, the two of them gained a lot. First, they found the ore of purple flame, which is estimated to be mainly composed of potassium.

Later, they also found an ore that can produce green flames. There are many ions that can produce green flame reactions, such as copper, lead, and ions. During the process, Qi Liuxing simultaneously used props that can detect harmful substances, props There was no warning issued during the whole process, and considering the factors of commonness or non-commonness, the probability that this ore is a copper mine is relatively high.

During the whole process of doing the small experiment, both of them wore gas masks to prevent harmful gases from entering their noses.

After about an hour, they had already found enough ore and put all of them in their bags.

When the two were about to leave, He Xiaowei took a flashlight to the top of the mountain to take a picture. "Hey, there is a road leading to the top of the mountain over there, do you want to take a look?"

"There are still nearly 12 hours before 4 midnight, so I think it's feasible. Didn't Brother Qian also say that he wants to investigate around?" Qi Liuxing said, "But we have to report the address to see first. To avoid any accidents, He doesn't even know where we've been."

After sending a message to Zhou Qian, the two followed the mountain road all the way up, and soon reached the top of the mountain, and then they found something.

There is a rather weird triangular building on the top of the mountain, which looks a bit like a pyramid, but the building materials are obviously much rougher and smaller, as if it is made of the simplest mud.

After the two looked at each other, they walked around to the front of the pair of buildings, which read: "Pray for the Goddess Temple".

"There are people and ghosts in this book, and now a god has finally appeared." He Xiaowei couldn't help saying.

Qi Liuxing frowned immediately. "After experiencing "Apple Paradise", I don't like this kind of god related to wishes now."

He Xiaowei suggested: "Go in and have a look?"

"Wait—" Qi Liuxing raised his left wrist and glanced, and said, "Brother Qian replied, saying that he has already packed our things for the night. He will come right away, let us wait for him .”

"That's good." He Xiaowei said, "This kind of temple is probably quite dangerous. It would be better if he is here. Then we will wait for him."

The two didn't wait long, and Zhou Qian, Yindao, and Ke Yuxiao appeared first.

Behind them were Yun Yurong and Yin Jiujiu.

After looking at the two girls a few more times, Qi Liuxing looked at Zhou Qian again and asked, "As soon as I mentioned that we found the temple, you said you would come here. Did you find anything?"

Zhou Qian smiled, and didn't answer directly, just said: "I got the things from the village chief for you. The things you two need to use tonight are with me, not with Yindao and Ke Yuxiao." .I think it's better for me to keep it for you."

Qi Liuxing and He Xiaowei: "?"

Yin Dao and Ke Yuxiao: "..."

"Let's go to that temple and have a look." Zhou Qian went straight to the temple, bypassing the two of them.

"Temple of Goddess of Prayer".When I first heard the name, a scene easily appeared in my mind, which is very common in scenic spots and tourist areas in reality - the trunks of thousand-year-old locust trees or ginkgo trees are covered with red silk, There are all kinds of wooden signs hanging on it, and people's wishes are engraved or written on the signs.

Whether the wishes of tourists can be realized in this way is another matter, but the sense of ceremony must be sufficient. Besides, it is not expensive to spend ten yuan and 20 yuan, just to join in the fun.

Before entering this temple, what came to everyone's minds was nothing more than this situation.

But after walking in, I realized that everything was not as stupid as they thought.

There is absolutely no excitement in the temple.As soon as everyone walked in, the first thing they felt was a very cold atmosphere.

This kind of coldness is different from the gloomy. It doesn't make people feel scared, but only makes people feel a kind of discomfort, a kind of instinctive resentment and disgust.

With the help of a flashlight, when they can see clearly what is engraved on both sides of the corridor, the players will understand where this feeling comes from - the coldness in this temple has nothing to do with ghosts and gods, but only with the evil in human nature.

Walking in from the entrance of the temple, there is a dark corridor first.

On both sides of the corridor are stone tablets one after another.

The stone tablet is uniformly engraved with symbols written in some unknown script, which is a bit like a magic spell.

As for the bottom of these symbols, the content and handwriting of each stone tablet are different.

What all the steles have in common is that apart from the runes similar to curses, there is one more—the contents written on them are all kinds of curses.

"I hope my wife dies soon so that I can marry the next door Ah Lian."

"Neighbor Ann stole my favorite flower, I hope he will be eaten by the flower!"

"Juri's wife is pregnant, but I know she is having an affair with someone else. I like Curie so much, but Curie married her... She doesn't know how to be satisfied, and she betrays such a good Curie. I curse her The next monster! And this monster will eat her!"

It seems that people who come to the "Praying Goddess Temple" do not wish to make wishes such as "I am stupid to become beautiful" and "I am stupid to live forever" to satisfy themselves and not hurt others.

All the "prayers" involved in the steles in this temple have nothing to do with any good, but are all full of malice.

"It seems that this is not a temple to help people realize their wishes." He Xiaowei couldn't help asking, "Is it because this temple is used to curse people's special spirits, so many people come here to carve cursing steles?"

Qi Liuxing took the conversation and said, "Maybe we'll find out if we keep going down."

Walking slowly along the corridor, there are still all kinds of curses on both sides. At the same time, the road becomes narrower and narrower, until it is only one person wide.

Seven players lined up in a long line, moving forward one by one, and finally entered a temple through the end of the corridor.

The temple is not big, and the ground and walls are filled with all kinds of curse inscriptions.

The furnishings here are also simple, with candles burning all around, and a statue of a goddess suspected to be made of pure gold in the center.

The statue is naked, revealing a full chest and a slender waist, with absolutely moving curves.Her face is also very beautiful, as beautiful as a fleeting epiphyllum that only shows up in the world.

The moment he saw her, Qi Liuxing subconsciously turned his head. Beside him, Ke Yuxiao saw his appearance, patted him on the shoulder, smiled and took him to the side of the temple to find out what was going on. .

He Xiaowei beside him also blushed immediately.

Glancing at the way Zhou Qian was staring at the statue carefully, he quickly whispered, "It's not good for you."

"The brain is crooked, and it is crooked to see things. Please appreciate it with an artistic eye."

Zhou Qian made a joke to He Xiaowei, looked up and down the statue several times, and then his eyes fell on her ankle.

There is an iron chain on the smooth ankle of the goddess.

But at this moment the lock on the iron chain was open.It was as if she had been locked by someone, and then someone took the key to help her unlock the lock.The man did not take the lock, but let it fall to the ground.

After seeing the statue of the goddess, the players scattered to study whether there is anything special about the inscription here.

After a while, Yun Yurong's voice came from somewhere. "There is a special inscription here. It mentions the Land of Languages, and also mentions the woman named 'A Mei'."

Hearing this, the players quickly leaned over to check the stele.

Walking to the stone tablet and reading the words on it, Zhou Qian also felt something special.

It was still a cursed stele, but the content written on it was particularly intriguing——

"The woman named Ah Mei must have stolen the golden feather! She brought it back to the Land of Words! I cursed that the people in her hometown would suffer disasters, and I cursed that many people in her hometown would die every year until she took the golden feather bring back!

"My most respected Goddess of Prayer, Difu, please let my curse be fulfilled, and I also ask you to help me find the golden feather. In return, I am willing to give you the 'Key of Freedom'!

"I heard that Wells, the god of imprisonment, loves your face. In order to keep you, he trapped you with the 'Shackles of Eternal Life'. I have the most powerful magician, and he will use the 'Key of Freedom' to help you recover. Freedom, as long as you help me fulfill the curse!"

Zhou Qian and Yindao can understand this text.But Qi Liuxing and He Xiaowei didn't understand.The two couldn't help asking one after another: "The country of words? A Mei? What are these?"

Facing the two, Zhou Qian told all the information he got from the hotel proprietress Tarr.

After hearing this, He Xiaowei was stunned for a moment, and first said: "Qian'er, didn't you say that there is a very powerful magician in the Kingdom of Silence? He is the one who issued the ban on us. He is called Liushui, right?

"You see, the man who carved the stele of the curse here, also claims that he has a magician. So...

"Hiss... Then the cursed stele in front of us is... written by the king of the Kingdom of Silence! It's him, he can't escape!"

Suddenly, he was so stupid that he clapped his palms together and said, "I know, everything can be matched——

"Amei, the most beautiful girl in the Kingdom of Words, married the king of the Kingdom of Silence, and then stole his golden feather. So the king came to the Temple of the Goddess of Wishing and asked her to cast a curse on the people of Amei's hometown.

"This strange handkerchief-throwing competition in the Kingdom of Silence is probably related to this curse. People who are chosen to watch the night will die in large numbers. The content of the curse about the death of many people in A Mei's hometown every year is fulfilled!

"Hmm. It sounds reasonable. Little Viagra is getting better at making up stories. But there is a problem behind it,"

Zhou Qian looked at He Xiaowei, "This man said in the curse that if the golden feather is found, he will help the Goddess of Prayer to unlock the chain. Look at that statue, the lock on its ankle has indeed been unlocked. This It means that the golden feather should have been recovered."

"Well. I understand what Zhou Qian meant. What you said makes sense." Ke Yuxiao said, "The curse says that people will continue to die in Ah Mei's hometown until Yu is found. Then, since Yu is found Come on, the tragedy in Wuming Village should stop. But why... the 'Handkerchief Throwing Event' is still going on?"

This strange stele did reveal crucial information.

Perhaps as long as some details are clarified, we can further understand the whole story of the dungeon.

Immediately, everyone started an in-depth discussion on this.

Yin Jiujiu did not participate in the discussion, she just walked to another corner of the temple while listening.

After a while, she suddenly said: "Come and have a look. This stele is also very interesting. This is a very new stone stele. Because the words on it are very clear, the degree of weathering is very light."

Hearing this, Zhou Qian walked over first and looked at the stele.

The content on the stele is indeed very interesting.

"My stepmother keeps teasing me that I'm not smart, and I want her to be a big fool."

The first sentence on the stele reads like this.

But what is interesting is the next sentence——"I heard that Goddess Difu, you come and go without a trace, and you may disappear at any time. It's a pity, I hope you will come back, because I brought my friend here. His stepfather also Nasty, he's stupid enough to curse his stepfather into a big black pig."

"Hiss...the goddess comes and goes without a trace..." He Xiaowei leaned over to look at the stele, this time without blushing, and looked at the ankle of the statue of the goddess in the center of the temple again, "Could it be..."

"This passage solved another doubt in my heart." Zhou Qian took the words.

"What doubts?" He Xiaowei asked him.

Zhou Qian said: "The Kingdom of Silence, the Kingdom of Language, the two countries have good relations. After Ah Mei married to the Kingdom of Silence, she stole the king's golden feather. After returning, the two countries began to fight against each other. The cursed inscription just now is indeed the Kingdom of Silence Written by the king. I agree with this speculation.

"According to Tar, both countries regard Ah Mei as a sinner. In Wuming Village, don't even mention this name. It seems that many people in this village were killed because Ah Mei stole the golden feather. death. The information can be confirmed by each other, and there should be no difference. There is no doubt about it. But—”

Frowning slightly, Zhou Qian continued: "The king of the Kingdom of Silence hates betrayal, so he ordered magicians to issue orders in an attempt to kill us deserters. But he didn't send any soldiers to hunt us down.

"It can be seen that, for some reason, people from the Kingdom of Silence will never set foot on the land of the Kingdom of Phrases. Then, if this is the case, how did the king come to this temple and engrave the curse inscription? "

"Yeah! I got it!" He Xiaowei's eyes lit up, "It must have something to do with this lock!"

"Yes. My foolishness, this temple was not originally in the Land of Languages, not on the top of this mountain. It should be in a place that many people can reach."

Zhou Qian said, "The king of the Kingdom of Silence entered the temple to cast a curse, and the curse may or may not have come true, but he should have found the golden feather, so he asked the magician to unlock the goddess. From then on——

"The goddess is free and doesn't have to stay in one place all the time.

"The temple has become a mobile temple, appearing somewhere from time to time.

"That's why Yin Jiujiu found this relatively new inscription, which mentioned that the goddess will disappear. This person entered the temple after the golden feather returned to the king and the magician unshackled the goddess. piece of inscription."

As soon as Zhou Qian finished speaking, all kinds of inscriptions around, the pure gold goddess in the center of the temple, the deep corridors, and the pitch-black ceiling and floor all began to fade together until they became transparent.

——The temple disappeared before their eyes.

Instead, there is a green grassy slope.

The green grass was illuminated silver by the stars and moon, and waves of silver waved with the wind, swaying layer by layer, connecting with the distant starry sky, and merging into the Milky Way in the sky.

Looking up at the bright moon and stars in the sky, Zhou Qian lowered his head and noticed a straight road in front of him.Pushing aside the grass and walking along this road for a dozen steps, he found that the road had a corner.

Being so stupid, Zhou Qian summoned Xiaolong and carried himself up into the sky.

Seeing him like this, He Xiaowei couldn't hold back and said for a moment: "Oh, I'm so stupid about the dragon I saw in "The Bucket List"! But yours is much smaller."

The corners of Zhou Qian's lips twitched, he didn't speak, but directed Xiaolong to continue to fly upwards.

When the little dragon flew to a sufficient height, Zhou Qian looked down and found that his judgment was indeed correct - the path in the grass he saw just now was actually the strokes of words.

Just like a magical crop circle, when you are in the wheat field, you can't see anything, but you can find a huge difference when you look down from the sky.

At this moment, with the help of Xiaolong, Zhou Qian saw a line of writing.

"Never kill a bird."

— This is the fourth prohibition on desertion.
