bayonet and rose

As soon as they entered the door, a maid handed them clean towels, and some people wanted to help Hua Zhai get an umbrella, but Hua Zhai didn't give it, and the umbrella disappeared out of thin air when they flipped their wrists.

Seeing this, the maids were not surprised, and continued to wait on them calmly. After they finished wiping off the rain, they put away the wet towels and left.

They had just finished wiping off the rainwater when the door was knocked again. The butler went over to open the door with ease. There were several passersby standing outside. This time the butler let them in without even asking.

Five people came in this time, and the big brother in armor was also among them, and the maid who came back and forth handed them towels.

Armor brother waved his hand coolly to signal no, then he took off the helmet himself, revealing a dry face.

This armor is even waterproof.

The butler took out his pocket watch and looked at it, "I have prepared a sumptuous dinner for all the distinguished guests, please follow me to the dining room."

The tone was very respectful, but there was no room for them to choose at all.

·

The dining room was big and bright, and everyone sat down according to the guidance of the butler. After they were seated, other passers-by finally entered the castle after several struggles.

After everyone sat down, Lin Zijuan counted. There were 50 passers-by who chose King K, [-] males and [-] females, with a wide age range. There was one male who seemed to be over [-] years old. , and two teenage boys and girls.

Lin Ziyu and Hua Zhai were sitting in the corner. At first there was no one sitting next to them, but then a cheerful round-inch man looked around and sat down.

"I'm Zhencheng, Zhenxuan, Chengzi's Cheng, I don't think I've seen you before, are you new?"

"Yes," Lin Zijuan replied, and made up a name: "Lin Yu."

"Shuangmulin? Which rain?" Zhen Cheng asked again.

"It's raining rain."

Zhen Cheng shook hands with Lin Ziyu, then looked enthusiastically at Hua Zhai: "Hello."

Hua Zhai propped his chin with one hand, and looked sideways at the window washed by the rain. Zhen Cheng's voice was not low, but he didn't turn his head to look at the other party at all.

Zhen Cheng withdrew her hand in embarrassment, but smiled again after a while, and continued to chat with Lin Ziyu: "The higher the checkpoint is, the fewer active passers-by, those who are capable and willing to come to checkpoint [-] of the Skeleton District ...Speaking of which, I should know everyone with big faces, so I was a little curious when I saw the faces of you two."

As he spoke, he stretched out his index finger and drew a circle towards the other passers-by, indicating that he knew them all.

Lin Zijuan smiled politely, but did not answer.

Zhen Cheng acted as a friendly and talkative person, but what he said was actually not new to Lin Ziyu.

There is a sort of pyramid within the level, which is not difficult to figure out. Low-level levels are frequently opened, and the frequency of change of level breakers is also high. The higher the level, the more solidified.It was previously revealed by Feng Ling in the Kingdom of Birds that the Qihun people used to be active at the level around the tenth level... It is very likely that the tenth level is a gap that has stuck many people, and those who cannot cross it will take risks, such as going to Turn the wheel to earn points, another example is to challenge some weird levels.

Zhen Cheng only said half of what he said. Since he cares so much about passers-by of the same level, he should at least have some understanding of the newcomers below, because he has never seen Lin Ziyu and Huazhai on the rookie list, so he is more concerned. curious.

Seeing that Lin Ziyu didn't answer, Zhen Cheng also understood that the other party was vigilant, but his face showed no embarrassment at all, and he still maintained his "self-familiar" personality, so he patted Lin Ziyu on the shoulder, bowed Said: "Look at the bald head opposite you, his name is Xue Xiaoqiang, he looks like a big fool, but in fact he has the most thieves' thoughts... and the girl in the blue dress on the left, Xu Rushui, a walking killer, I She can hit five in one go, and the old man at the end, Jin Xi, can't say anything, in short, you need to pay attention to these people, there is only so much I can say."

Lin Zijuan glanced at Zhen Cheng, "What about you?"

"Me?" Zhen Cheng turned the pen in her hand, "It's just a small shrimp struggling to survive."

"Really." Lin Ziyu said calmly.

Before the others could make a move, this Zhen Cheng ran over to Bilibala and fell into a mess. The ghost knows whether what he said is true or not, and what purpose is behind it.

Zhen Cheng knew that his behavior was suspicious, so he put the pen in his hand back into his shirt pocket, and the corner of his mouth curled up, "It's only fun if it's lively, what's the point of everyone being scared and walking on eggshells."

"Didn't you say that the food is prepared?" Someone yelled dissatisfiedly across the table, "Why don't you even have a cup of hot water? Damn, I'm starving to death. I just exited the Princess District and I haven't even taken a breath. The Skeleton District Then it opened."

Lin Ziju followed the sound and saw that the person speaking was a 30-year-old woman with short hair and a blue sweater. She was exactly the "big killer" Xu Rushui that Zhen Cheng had just mentioned.

"Sister Xu is still fierce, you are not afraid of problems with things here."

"You're still playing tricks on the food even at the tenth checkpoint?" Xu Rushui snorted coldly, not taking it seriously, "Then the person who opened it is too tasteless."

They talked about the opener without any shyness, and when they were talking lively, the butler came again, bringing a bunch of maids, each of whom was pushing a dining cart.

"I'm sorry for the long wait," the butler clapped his hands, "Now, please enjoy your dinner."

As soon as he finished speaking, the maids began to serve dishes in a well-trained manner. Each dish was exquisite and attractive, which whetted the appetite.

In addition to putting a table full of big dishes, there was also a maid serving tea to the passers-by one by one. She moved skillfully and came to Linzi Prison in a short while.

"Hi, excuse me," the maid said softly, "Do you need a cup of black tea?"

"Well," Lin Zijuan glanced sideways at Hua Zhai, Hua Zhai still looked uninterested in his surroundings, so he included him, "Two cups."

The maid poured tea for them, and quickly moved to the next person. After a while, she passed all the seventeen people on the dining table, and then obediently stood behind the butler, standing with the other maids.

The butler looked back at the maid, and then clapped his palms again. The passers-by who were eating looked at the butler.

The butler still had an impeccable smile on his face, "Now, I have a question."

"What?" Xu Rushui was biting a piece of steak, her voice was a bit vague, but it was enough to tell that she was in a bad mood at this time.

The butler was completely unaffected by Xu Rushui's aura. He looked around, stared at the passers-by one by one, and finally fell on Zhen Cheng, "This guest, please answer the question. The one who poured you tea just now is who?"

The rules only say that they should be paired in pairs, and nothing else is mentioned. This sudden problem should be the internal plot setting of the level.

After the butler's voice fell, a dozen pairs of eyes immediately focused on Zhen Cheng, waiting to see Zhen Cheng's reaction.There are also a few who are unmoved, eating on their own, without even looking at them.

Zhen Cheng looked at the butler while tearing the food in her mouth.

Zhen Cheng's eyes were a bit fierce, but the housekeeper stood up straight and smiled decently.

After a while, Zhen Cheng finally swallowed what was in her mouth, "What will happen if I can't answer?"

The butler's smile has never changed, "Who knows."

Zhen Cheng looked away from the butler, landed on a maid behind him, pointed her finger, and said with certainty: "That's her."

This maid is not tall, about 1.6 meters, with a thin and thin body, slightly dry skin, single eyelids, a little freckles, and a sparse face. If you pass by her on the street ten times, you may not remember her appearance.

Zhen Cheng could easily pick her out from the group of maids.

The butler turned his head slightly, and looked back at the maid, who subconsciously shrank her shoulders.

"The answer is wrong." The butler turned his head and continued to speak with his decent smile, but this smile lasted too long and lost its original elegance, leaving only a trace of creepiness.

Zhen Cheng held a knife and fork in her hand, and her back was tense, ready to rush up and stab the butler in the heart at any time.

The butler only said one wrong answer and made no other comments. He clapped his hands, "Dinner time is over, please go back to your room and rest."

·

The rooms have been arranged, and the maids lead the passers-by through the castle, respectfully sending them to their respective rooms.

Except for Hua Zhai.

Lin Ziyu got up, and Hua Zhai also got up, completely ignoring the maid who came to guide him, and walked next to Lin Ziyu arrogantly.

The butler saw this but didn't say anything, and the other maids didn't even respond.

The maid who guided them walked a few steps in front of them cautiously, keeping their heads down and focusing on leading the way, without even sneaking a peek at Linzi Prison and Huazhai on the way.

In the end, the maid led them to a room at the top, opened the door and said, "This is the room for the two guests. There is hot water and clean clothes in it. I wish you a good night."

After the maid finished speaking, she wanted to leave, but was stopped by Hua Zhai unexpectedly.

The maid looked up in bewilderment.

Hua Zhai was much taller than her, so standing in front of her, even the light of the oil lamp in her hand could not escape, it was really scary.

"Thank you for bringing us here," Lin Ziju lazily folded his hands, "May I know your name?"

Although Lin Ziyu's attitude was quite friendly, the maid couldn't help trembling, her lips trembled a few times, and when she was about to speak, a sound of metal falling on the ground interrupted her words—it was an oil lamp for no reason The break fell down.

The kerosene spread out on the ground, and the flames rose and fluttered above. The maid frantically went to put out the fire, and covered it directly with a pair of white and tender hands in a hurry.

It was Lin Zi Prison who stopped him.

"It's okay." Lin Zijuan said, urging Fei Lianjie to easily blow out the flames on the ground.

The maid apologized repeatedly, remembering to quickly clean up the marks on the ground, and hurriedly ran down the corridor out of sight of the two of them.

There was a chuckle in the darkness, it was Hua Zhai's.

He felt Lin Zijuan's hand holding him, and he led Lin Zijuan into the room half a step forward.

There is no light in the room, but there is a little moonlight in it, so it won't completely blind you.

Hua Zhai found a kerosene lamp on the table, but he didn't know how he did it, but he lit it up smoothly.

After lighting the lamp, Hua Zhai looked back at Lin Zi Prison.

Both of them were drenched thoroughly, and they were delayed by the dinner party, their bodies were uncomfortably wet, and their clothes were stuck to their bodies heavily.

No matter how uncomfortable people are, looking at this picture in the warm light is indeed very heart-warming.Hua Zhai's eyes lingered on Lin Ziyu's pale lips for a moment, and then fell down his neck to his collarbone...

Sensing Hua Zhai's aggressive gaze, Lin Zijuan slightly raised his eyes and glanced at him as a warning.

Hua Zhai bit his lower lip with his canine teeth, and after a while he restrained himself a little, "Boss Lin, be careful of catching a cold."

·

next morning

When Lin Ziyu opened his eyes, he felt that his eyelids were heavier than before. He hadn't escaped from the confusion, and he didn't have any special reaction when he opened his eyes to see Hua Zhai, who was close at hand. He was still very careful. Observed Hua Zhai's appearance carefully.

Until Hua Zhai also opened his eyes and greeted, "Good morning."

Only then did Lin Ziju say a vague "hmm", turned over and was about to get up, but before he could turn over, Hua Zhai leaned over and tapped him on the forehead.

"Good morning kiss."

·

After washing up, another maid called for someone and told them to go to have breakfast.

When we arrived at the restaurant, many people were already seated inside, and the seating order was still the same as last night. After Lin Ziyu and Hua Zhai were seated, the housekeeper began to arrange the dishes.

Lin Zijuan counted around and found that there were only sixteen people, the one missing was the person on the other side of Zhen Cheng, who should be a slightly fat man in Lin Zijuan's memory.

After the dishes were served, the butler led the maids back, Xu Rushui casually broke a piece of bread and said, "One person was eliminated."

As she spoke, her gaze swept across the crowd one by one, sharp and oppressive, and finally she fixed her eyes on Zhen Cheng.

"Oh." Zhen Cheng put down the hot milk, shrugged, and made an inexplicable voice. He met Xu Rushui's gaze, thought for a while and sighed uncertainly: "It's really useless?"
