Your time to live has been credited [unlimited]

There are other things in the house.

This discovery made alarm bells ring in his heart, and his chest heaved violently.

The electric light above his head gave off a miserable white light, and Dou Huai scanned the whole room inch by inch, his palms dripping with sweat.

Judging from the scene in front of me, this is a very ordinary basement, with a small space and nothing piled up, the only two big things are him and the cow opposite.

What was it that touched him in the dark?Where will it be hidden?Who was laughing just now?

Finally, his eyes fell on the ground.

Perhaps it was for feeding the cows, a thin layer of khaki-yellow hay was randomly scattered on the ground, and when the feet stepped on it, there would be a "creaking" sound.

Is it hiding under the hay?

Although it was impossible, he slowly kicked away all the surrounding grass, exposing the damp wooden floor underneath.

At this moment, Dou Huai's pupils shrank slightly, because he saw a line of words written in red liquid on the floor——

【Kill a cow, the key is in the cow's stomach, the butcher knows what to do】

Who left this line?Clues, or lure him to die?

Dou Huai leaned his back against the wall, forcing himself to calm down.

"The system says this dungeon is called [Livestock Town], and it's an elimination dungeon with a survival rate of less than 60%. I was knocked out here as soon as I entered the dungeon, and I haven't seen any other players so far, that is to say, the first round The elimination should be a single screening."

He is a game player himself, so he has a good understanding of this type of mechanism.

"The closed space, the big lock that traps me, this is a typical escape room."

Room escape games generally have several essential elements, background stories, clues, and time limits.

The first two are already there, and there is one time limit left...

Dou Huai sniffed, and the stench in the air became stronger.Although it was not as good as the smell when facing the dead chicken, it was much more obvious than when he just woke up.

"This odor is most likely a kind of time limit. Once the odor reaches a certain concentration, it may trigger the death mechanism."

Various clues are intertwined in his mind, and Dou Huai can be sure that his analysis is correct.

"Just now, after I found the light bulb, the smell became stronger, and then something furry touched me. I turned on the light, and when I looked around the room, the smell intensified again, and so did the weird laugh. It was sent out at this time."

His heart sank little by little, Dou Huai didn't know what would happen when the smell reached its peak, he only knew that he had to speed up.

His eyes fell to the ground again.

"The key is in the cow's stomach, and the butcher knows what to do. This prompt tells me to kill the cow, and I just need to cut open the cow's stomach to get the key and leave here. Is it really that simple?"

He looked up at the black calf. It had a dull face and dull eyes. It looked very harmless and easy to bully.

Dou Huai suddenly had a feeling that even if he cut open its stomach with a knife, the calf would not resist.

"The butcher knows what to do. Butchers kill cattle. Does this mean that I have less burden when killing cattle? Or do I want me to become a butcher?"

He looked around, and if he needed to kill a cow and take it apart, there would be knives or anything sharp in the house.

But this room is so big, everything can be seen at a glance.Dou Huai was chained near the corner, and the length of the chain could only allow him to reach more than half of the room, and even if he tore his arms apart, he would not be able to reach it.

He tried knocking on the floor, walls, and ceiling, but the echoes indicated that there wasn't any empty mezzanine inside, just chunks of heavy wood.

what to do?Are you going to smash the light bulb?

In a flash, a series of plans appeared in his mind-dismantle the wires and strangle the cowboys, smash the light bulbs, choose the largest piece to cut the cowhide, and finally find the key and leave.

But he quickly dismissed the idea.

That was a cow, not a chick.The skin is rough and the meat is thick, and it takes several hours to cut a layer of skin with light bulb fragments.

Will the dungeon really leave him that much time?

And the most important point, if he guessed wrong, ignored the real clue, and smashed the only light source in the room in a hurry, then he would fall into an absolutely passive situation afterwards.

The high tension made his body tremble instinctively, Dou Huai pinched himself hard, don't panic, there must be something he didn't expect.

what else?

The clue says the butcher knows what to do, the butcher, the butcher is the executioner, every livestock's nightmare.Every butcher has his own knife, and the murderous butcher's knife can even sell for a very high price.

A knife is a must, but he has seen every inch of this room, there is no knife!nothing!

wrong!and many more!

Dou Huai was taken aback for a moment, "swipe" and turned around, there was one place he hadn't seen!Under that cow's body!

Since waking up, the black cow has been lying on the ground expressionlessly, and the floor under it has never been exposed.

That was the only blind spot in the whole room.

Dou Huai rushed over immediately, the chain was just long enough for him to touch the cow.

He put his hands on the cow and pushed the cow to one side.

"Go and stay there, my dear."

The cowboy stared at him blankly for a few seconds, then finally got up and slowly moved aside.

Dou Huai looked down, and there was indeed something on the pressed ground!

Not a knife, though, but a long-handled axe.

Under the bright white light, the blade of the ax gleamed extremely sharply, and it was very heavy in the hand.

"Why give me this?"

He didn't have time to think more, he immediately grabbed the ax in his palm.

After such a long time, I finally had a weapon/weapon, and my sense of security suddenly increased a lot.

But just when he got up happily, there was a sudden sound of "da da" footsteps behind him!And the footsteps were approaching him at an extremely fast speed!It was as if someone was madly rushing towards him!

Dou Huai didn't have time to react, he grabbed the long-handled ax and instinctively rushed to the side!

"boom!"

This fall was extremely hard, and the heart-pounding pain came from all over the body, but he didn't care about anything else, and immediately swung the long-handled ax behind him!

But the ax didn't hit anything, just the cold air behind him.

The smell around is much stronger.

Dou Huai gasped and stood up, his back covered in cold sweat.

"I'm running out of time."

He turned his head to look at Hei Niu, and Hei Niu was also looking at him.

"sorry."

Two lines of hot tears flowed from the bull's eyes, as if he knew that he was about to be ripped open.

"Kill the cow, just take the key out of the stomach and get out alive."

Dou Huai walked towards Hei Niu step by step, dragging the ax on the ground, making a chilling sound.

The black cow closed its eyes, it was powerless to resist, and could only quietly wait for death.

It felt a warm hand covering its body, and the cow trembled uncontrollably.

It's coming, it's going to die.

In the next second, Hei Niu felt his jaw being pushed open, his long tongue was pulled out forcefully, and a thick and long hard object was directly stabbed/into his throat.

Black Bull: "???"

It struggled to open its eyes, and was stunned to find that the man in front of it was frantically stirring its mouth with a long stick!

Niu was stunned.

What is this man doing?

No, wait a minute.The black cow's eyes widened, its stomach was overly stimulated by the outside world, and a strange feeling kept churning in its stomach.

Ten seconds later, vomit——! !

The yellow-green viscous acid vomited out of Hei Niu's mouth with a "pop" and dripped all over the ground in a mess!

Dou Huai covered his mouth and nose and backed away quickly, but it was inevitable that some of it still stuck.

But he just stared closely at the vomiting cow as if he couldn't see it.

At his feet, the ax without its long handle lay quietly on the ground.

"From the moment I received the system information, this dungeon has been putting pressure on me. Death is like a knife hanging above my head, as if it will fall anytime, anywhere."

"In this case, I will inevitably feel nervous, fearful, and restless, and will lose my basic judgment on the incident. I just want to escape from here as soon as possible."

Dou Huai pulled out the long handle from Hei Niu's mouth, lowered his head and put the ax back on.There was no panic or uneasiness in his eyes, but a deep coldness.

"At this time, if there is a clear message to guide me in the direction of escaping, I will definitely follow it, because human beings are like this, timid and selfish."

"Is it really that simple?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a small, metallic item dripped out of the cow's mouth along with viscous vomit.

With nothing else in his stomach, Hei Niu lay weakly on the ground, and slowly raised his head to look at Dou Huai.

Dou Huai didn't waste time, he endured the smell and fished out the small thing from the vomit.Under the glaring white light, a key shining with metallic luster appeared in the palm of his hand.

He inserts/into the keyhole directly.

"Crack."

The shackles were released, and the growing stench in the room faded instantly.

"I can kill a cow to get the key, but what about after that?"

Dou Huai broke free from the chain and walked towards the door without hesitation

"The information in the system clearly stated,【Any choice you make in the dungeon may lead to an unknown ending. I hope you don't regret it, don't look back, and work hard to survive.】"

"So can I understand that the direction of the entire dungeon depends on every choice I make?"

[The butcher knows what to do] In other words, if you kill the black cow, you will become a butcher.

However, the relationship between butchers and livestock is not friendly.

Besides, Dou Huai deeply remembered that as the "death mechanism", those who touched him in the dark, those who attacked him and knocked him unconscious and sent him here were all furry animals.

"This dungeon is called [Livestock Town], and this is your site. If I become a butcher, I'm afraid something bad will happen later."

"boom!"

The long-handled ax smashed on the wooden door, and the door lock was crumbling, and then it was kicked open with a "bang", and a wisp of mud mixed with water vapor quickly diluted the strong stench.

Dou Huai turned his head and looked at Hei Niu calmly, "If I'm not mistaken, there are two completely different paths between not killing and killing, right?"

"So what you provided me was a detachable long-handled axe, not a knife with only one ending."

The air fell into a dead silence.

Hei Niu lay quietly on the ground, looking straight at Dou Huai with his small eyes.

The sense of weakness on it is slowly fading away.

It was a very strange feeling, and Dou Huai could clearly feel some kind of complex emotional changes similar to humans in the cow.

For a moment, he couldn't even tell whether the person facing him was a man in animal skin or a beast that was about to turn into a man.

Black Bull stood up.

It walked step by step to the corner next to the door, which was a place Dou Huai couldn't reach when he was tied up.

The black bull cub bumped his head against the wall, and the planks came loose, revealing a small interlayer.

Dou Huai saw his bag and mobile phone at a glance, and there was a piece of black leather and a small iron rod that was as thick as a thumb and as long as half a palm.

"It turned out to be like this. If I choose to kill the cow and search for the key from a pile of steaming internal organs, I will definitely suffer a lot of psychological pressure. After opening the lock in this situation, coupled with the pressing "death" Mechanism ", I will definitely leave the house without hesitation."

And once you leave, I am afraid that the door will be closed immediately, and there will be no chance for the player to return to check.

This is choice, and the result of choice.

Dou Huai picked up his backpack and checked the Winner of Life app as soon as he got the phone. After confirming that Guan Sisi in the partner column was ready to be summoned at any time, he was really relieved.

He picked up the small iron rod to check again, and found that it was just an ordinary small iron rod, nothing special.

What's interesting is the skin.

It was a piece of pure black cowhide, shaped like an ordinary coat.

I don't know what it does, but it should be a good thing.

When Dou Huai just wanted to put the skin into his backpack, he noticed that the skin was stained with a lot of dark red blood.Because of the contact, his palms, clothes and backpack were all covered with blood. At first glance, it was as scary as if he had really killed a cow.

Dou Huai without a change of clothes: "..."

Fine.

He picked up the long-handled ax and stepped out of the house without looking back.

It was indeed a basement, with a long staircase appearing beneath it.Dou Huai went up the stairs, and after a while, a faint light appeared in front of his eyes.

The exit is just ahead.

Dou Huai's heart skipped a beat, and he ran up in one go.

As the bright light continued to expand, the familiar sky suddenly appeared in the field of vision!

The cool wind blew away the peculiar smell from his body, and Dou Huai stood on the ground with his head up, taking a deep breath of the air outside.

"Finally out."

Although the level in the basement is not difficult, it is too depressing.The feeling of being blind and dangerous is really terrible, and he doesn't want to experience it again in his life.

Sitting on the spot took a few deep breaths, and after his tense body relaxed a little, Dou Huai began to look around.

He was in a very dilapidated small courtyard, and the fence of the fence was crooked and twisted around.There was a dilapidated small house in the middle of the courtyard. The windows and doors were gone, and there were air leaks everywhere.

The most attractive thing is that there is a large chopping board in front of the house, which is covered with minced meat, and the black and red blood is soaked in the cracks, congealing into sinuous lines.

A stench came from above.

Dou Huai has seen this kind of thing before. In a slaughterhouse or a large butcher shop, there will be a cutting board like this, which is used to cut up various livestock.

The price of each part of the livestock is different, so the butcher will separate the meat and put it on the stall for sale.

Dou Huai walked over slowly, and gently scraped the blood on the chopping board with an axe.

"The surface has not been completely condensed, and the top layer of minced meat is also very fresh, indicating that someone has used it not long ago."

He became alert and looked up at the gloomy hut.

Just as he was about to go to the house to check, there was a sudden loud noise outside.

"Someone?"

Many people shouted one after another, breaking the silence around them.

Dou Huai had to give up exploring temporarily, turned around and left the yard, and walked towards the source of the noise.

There is a bare loess path at the foot, and on both sides are small independent courtyards one after another.Layer upon layer, densely packed.

A little further away, you can even see beautiful brick houses and several-story single-family buildings.

"Livestock Town, so it's really a town?"
