bayonet and rose

As soon as Lin Ziyu said the straightforward "I don't know", the faces of the others were somewhat subtle, especially the young man who proposed it, hesitant to speak.

The man in armor also answered the last question.

Xu Rushui frowned, as if she felt that Lin Ziyu's answer was not safe, but she still didn't say much about intervening, looking at the butler and waiting for him to announce the result.

The butler didn't speak immediately, and admired the expressions of everyone.

Lin Zijuan crossed his fingers on the table, calmly.

"Unfortunately, the answer is wrong." The housekeeper said softly, he spoke politely, but there was no regret in his tone.

Once the butler announced that the answer was wrong, there was only one result to point to - being eliminated before breakfast the next day.

Previous passers-by have amply confirmed this.

It was rare for the man in armor to put down the knife and fork in his hand. He said "uuuuuuuuuuu" and put it as an afterthought: "Oh, I don't think it's easy to be fooled this time."

Lin Zijuan glanced at him indifferently, the man in armor immediately shut up, and bowed to Lin Zijuan with his palms folded.

"Well, our hope of passing the level by matching is a little less." Xue Xiaoqiang stood up first, "I'm full, you continue."

After taking two steps, Xue Xiaoqiang stopped abruptly, "If Kai Kai was present, he would be so happy to see us helpless."

No one answered him, Xue Xiaoqiang shrugged indifferently and left the restaurant.

After Xue Xiaoqiang's figure disappeared, Lin Ziyu also stood up and was about to leave. After walking a few steps, the boy grabbed Lin Zijuan's sleeve.

"If you can successfully pair up now, you won't be eliminated." The young man persuaded him sincerely.

Lin Zijuan looked down at the young man sitting on the seat, his eyes were cold and heavy against the light.

The boy involuntarily let go of his hand.

"And then?" Lin Ziqian asked.

The boy's original plan was a little hard to say, his voice became hoarse inexplicably, and he realized that there was still a little sweat on his forehead.

... He really didn't want to admit that he was surprised by the occasional Ling Lie on Lin Ziyu's body.

I made a mistake in my previous prediction of Lin Zi Prison!

"I will answer this question." Hua Zhai stood next to Lin Zi Prison at some point, leaned over and looked at the young man slightly, "Are you going to say that you can try pairing once?"

"I……"

"He answered wrongly and was destined to be eliminated. At this time, you stood up and pointed out a 'clear way' for him-the rules are the most important thing. As long as you find the right pairing on the card, you will not be eliminated. Unfortunately, everyone doesn't know. In each other's cards, if you make a wrong judgment, you will be eliminated. At this time, you, who are righteous and generous, stand up..."

Hua Zhai applauded and praised vigorously, "I am really touched."

The young man's face turned green a lot, "I don't understand what you mean, is it interesting to speak yin and yang? It's because you are always suspicious of each other and refuse to cooperate, that we are eaten to death by Kai Kairen!"

Hua Zhai smiled: "It's you, not us."

Before the boy could realize what it meant, Lin Ziyu pulled Hua Zhai.

Hua Zhai is someone who can speak, and in a few words, he is completely leading the young man to slip away. If this continues, the young man will be so angry by Hua Zhai that he will attack.

As a warning, Lin Zijuan put his hand on the boy's shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "Do you think it's easier to coax me as a novice?"

Hearing Lin Zi Prison's unwavering voice suddenly, the young man's heart trembled, and he felt like an ice pick had been pierced straight into his heart.

The person who opened the level set up the level very well. He knew that these level breakers would not let go of their grievances and cooperate easily, but the rules insisted that they complete two-two card matching. There is only one chance, and once they make a mistake, they will be eliminated.

In addition to the butler's death question and answer and maze, the harsh and ridiculous elimination setting forced them step by step.

Those who can participate in the No. [-] level of the Skeleton District are not Xiaobai, they have their own means, but these means and prudence can only ensure that they will not be eliminated early, and cannot pave the way for them to complete the rules.

It is still too difficult to pair.

Especially at this time, Lin Zi Prison happened to be branded as being eliminated. Generally speaking, it was the time when it was on the verge of collapse and it was just a last-ditch effort.

There's no reason to say no to someone else's offer to try and match.

The boy's timing was good, but Lin Zi prison didn't trust him very much.

Everyone came to pass the customs, not to help the poor. Even if the young man devoted himself to showing his harmless side, it was not enough to offset Linzi Prison's suspicion of him.

Lin Zijuan let go, and didn't look at the boy much.

The man in armor let out an inexplicable low cry. He turned towards Lin Ziyu, the armor on his body creaking, "You are destined to be eliminated anyway, so it's okay to try. What if you two really match up?"

He dragged his tone and waved his finger towards Lin Zijuan, "Or...you have given up?"

"It's too early to give up now." Lin Ziqian glanced at the armored man.

"Then what are you?" The man in armor was very interested.

"I can walk a long way, so I don't have to endure other people's calculations to fight for this hope." Lin Zijuan twitched his lips, "For example, it seems that all levels can kill the person who opened it."

The man in armor paused for a few seconds, and coughed a few times without holding back, "Uh... okay, I'm lame, no, I'm not well-informed, but I forgot about this..." He considered his words, " This year's rookie is really good!"

Jin Xi watched the whole process, gave the armored man a serious look, then turned his gaze to Lin Zi Prison, shook his head and said, "Gateway No. [-], at least in my memory, has never opened a record of people being anti-killed."

He withdrew the second half of the sentence—not to mention that there was only one night left in Lin Zi Prison.

Lin Ziyu didn't answer, and just left the restaurant.

Jin Xi didn't take care of Lin Zi Prison, he looked at the others without saying a word, his weather-beaten eyes were heavy, and no one would feel comfortable if it fell on them.

Xu Rushui snorted softly, got up and planned to leave.

At this moment, Jin Xi said, "I don't know who the person who started this time is."

Xu Rushui stopped and smiled mockingly: "What's the matter, old man, do you doubt me?"

Jin Xi didn't dodge either, and looked directly at Xu Rushui, "I also know a little about Zhen Cheng's props, and I'm really curious about how you escaped... To put it bluntly, Zhen Cheng has also been forced out of the checkpoint by you now." , What happened is up to you, and four of us tried to stop you, and you didn't stop."

"Oh," Xu Rushui laughed angrily, "I can only obediently be tricked by Zhen Cheng for my feelings, otherwise I deserve to be suspected by you, an old man? My old lady, I broke out of the maze with my strength. It's different, you can think what you like."

After finishing speaking, Xu Rushui shook his hands and left, and kicked over the big vase at the door when he went out.

Unmoved, Jin Xi got up slowly, looked at the rest of the people at the table, "Fight against the Kaikai... Newcomers are indeed a bit more arrogant, do you think so too?"

No one answered.

"My bones are old and I can't afford to toss about. No matter what you think in your heart, don't forget that the core of the level is to pass the level according to the rules."

·

The rain still didn't stop.

The raindrops outside the window were blown by the night wind, drifted into the window obliquely, and hit Linzi prison on the face.

Hua Zhai took a towel and covered the head of Linzi Prison with ease, pulled the person closer to him, and closed the window with a flick of his hand.

After closing the window to keep out the thunderstorm, Hua Zhai patiently wiped the rain marks on Lin Ziyu's body.

"It's not worthwhile to catch a cold before being eliminated." Hua Zhai said.

The distance between Lin Ziyu and Hua Zhai is extremely close, so close that it is difficult to see each other's whole picture.

Lin Ziqian tore off the towel, and sat on the table across Huazhai. There were countless scratches on the table, and his bayonet was stuck in it.

"Jinxi said that there is no precedent for successfully counter-killing the opener at level ten?"

Lin Zijuan pulled out the bayonet, flicked the bayonet boringly and inserted it deeply into the table again, poking a new knife mark.

"To be precise, there are very few times when the openers of these intermediate levels are counter-killed," Hua Zhai explained to him, "The openers of the low-level levels are counter-killed because they are too weak; the opposite is true for the high-level levels. Because the level breakers at this level are too strong, it is difficult to limit them with level settings.”

Lin Zijuan pulled out the bayonet again and played with the blade against his own flesh and blood, "Then have you ever counter-killed Kairen in advanced levels?"

Hua Zhai just smiled without answering, and took the bayonet from Lin Ziyu, "This knife is very fast, be careful to cut yourself."

He put down the knife, but he didn't let go of Lin Ziqian's hand, he had to pull it up and kiss it.

Hua Zhai's whole body was cold, and so were his lips. When they fell on Lin Ziyu's fingers, they felt icy, and the touch was extremely clear.

"What are you going to do tonight?" Hua Zhai asked.

Lin Zijuan withdrew his hand, "Wait a minute, I want to see what Ace of Hearts will do."

Hua Zhai touched Lin Zijiao's hair to make sure it wasn't too wet, "Someone must be unable to hold back tonight."

·

The creaking sound was particularly ear-piercing in the corridor, making this corridor even more terrifying.

There is only a weak oil lamp in the corridor, and the person holding the lamp is the man in armor. His armor seems to be old and not maintained properly, and every step he takes makes some noises.

When he was about to walk to the end, a door was finally opened, and someone walked out, it was Jin Xi.

Jin Xi stood at the door, "If you're still up so late, don't tell me you're sleepwalking."

The armored man chuckled, "I don't have the habit of sleepwalking."

"Then go back to the room quickly, and stop pretending to be ghosts and scaring people outside."

Instead, the armored man took two steps closer to Jin Xi, "Old man Jin Xi, it's not the first day we met, so the effort of putting on a show is saved."

Jin Xi seemed to be touched by the armor man's words, so he put away the expression on his face, feeling a little melancholy, "It's been so long, I never thought I'd see you again, you're still wearing this armor, it's long enough. "

The man in the armor snorted, "It's no longer necessary to reminisce about the old days."

Kinsey: "..."

Armored man: "Could it be that I misunderstood, I thought those few words you said during the meal were implying that I came to you."

Jin Xi was silent for a moment, "You didn't think wrong. Now that things have happened, you and I are the only ones who can still trust me. At the beginning, we all jumped out to stop Xu Rushui, and we asked each other if you were doing it for Zhen Cheng. cards."

Zhen Cheng's card was very clear, it was the ace of hearts, and the four people who jumped out could all be aces.

But Jinxi hesitated again, because there are only four suits, and it is impossible for five players to have Aces, so this hesitation kept him from acting rashly until now.

The armored man snapped out four fingers, "Four of you, just ask me?"

"We have cooperated before, and I trust you first."

"Xue Xiaoqiang is not clean, you are afraid that he will do something wrong, you don't know the other girl well, you are afraid that she will slow you down... In this way, I am not the only one." The man in armor smacked his lips and said, "Obviously there is no other choice, Don't say that you and I really have any troubles."

Jinxi had nothing to say, so he spoke again after a while, "You are right, but you are not necessarily better than me. Instead of continuing to suffer, we might as well give it a try."

The armored man said, "It's not that there was no chance before, but you just said something tonight. I don't believe that you suddenly thought about it and explained clearly what happened, otherwise we will be eliminated together."

A gust of wind came in from nowhere and blew across the oil lamp in the armored man's hand, almost extinguishing the flame, but the flame was also tenacious, and it didn't really go out after being suppressed. After the wind passed, it ignited tremblingly upwards.

After a long time, Jin Xi said, "Do you know the youngest boy?"

"I don't know." The man in armor said without thinking.

"I didn't know him at first. Zhen Cheng told me before he was eliminated. This young man is called Li Xiang. He has a lot of weird props in his hands. He just used these props to climb to the tenth level while pretending to be harmless."

"so?"

"So I'm a little curious, why is he so courageous, dare to find someone to try to match... Then I asked just now, the young man was very enthusiastic and gave me an item, this item can save us from being eliminated once."

The armored man let out a snort, and he patted the wall, "Ask me? Will I still be able to see others tomorrow morning?"

Kinsey didn't answer.
