[Infinite Stream] Destiny Rubik's Cube
Chapter 7 Black Mass
Zhou Qi hugged himself: "I suspect you are telling ghost stories, but I have no proof."
Xu Chi nodded: "It's indeed a ghost story."
Zhou Qi: "..."
"Do you still remember what Ren Simiao said before when he heard a strange singing before falling asleep?" Xu Chi asked.
"The little girl giggled and said she should be damned, really damned?" Zhou Qi's back felt cold, his handsome face was a little stiff, "Why, did you hear that too?"
"You should be able to hear it when you put on a skirt. Ren Simiao only heard the first half of the sentence." Xu Chi pointed to his ear, "The second half is a disguised reminder: get flustered, take off your clothes. Dad will kill you all." .”
As soon as the words fell, the little wooden horse next to the sewing shop swayed back and forth.The scene was once scary.
Regardless of the fragmented materialistic values, Zhou Qi tensed his jaw and moved his masseter muscles: "She is implying that there is something wrong with the skirt, and she will die if she doesn't take it off?"
Xu Chi: "Yes. She should be the first victim."
Zhou Qi: "So, what are you waiting for?"
"?"
"Take off your petticoat quickly."
Xu Chi waved his hand: "No rush."
Zhou Qi widened his eyes: "You still wear this unlucky thing when you know it? Brother, I admire your courage." He clasped his fists in salute and urged, "Okay, Bking, take it off, hurry up."
The skirt was forced by Zhou Qi to wear it by Xu Chi. If something happened to him, he had a conscience, so he was very concerned at the moment.
Xu Chi explained: "If you don't wear clothes, you will catch a cold. I'm still sick. Let's go."
"where to?"
"Find the butler."
"Why are you looking for him?"
"Come and visit."
"Okay, just right." Zhou Qi flexed his wrist, "The canned herring in the morning smelled too much, I have to come to complain."
A quarter of an hour later.
In Arnold's bedroom.
The poor housekeeper was forced to wear Xu Chi's black petticoat, which was tightly tied with hemp rope and hung from the ceiling.
It was the first time he had encountered such brutal treatment. After being beaten, Arnold was stunned and couldn't believe it: "You guys, how dare you beat me?"
Zhou Qi dug out a cigar from nowhere, lit it and put it in his mouth, rubbing his iron fist, white smoke overflowed from the corner of his mouth: "You are the one who hit you."
Xu Chi changed into the housekeeper's tuxedo, came out of the dressing room, looked at Zhou Qi's hooliganism, and suspected that this kid was not only stealing, but also involved in gangsters.
The smoke ring hit the butler's face, and he became angry with embarrassment, struggling to kick his hind legs: "Let me go, the Duchess will not let you go!"
"Duchess?" Xu Chi lowered his head and straightened his cuffs, "Hasn't Amyrod already been killed by you?"
Arnold's face changed: "Fart, the Duchess is sleeping peacefully in her bedroom... ah!"
A silver light flashed, and Anol let out a short scream, but in the next second, his mouth was blocked by a smelly sock.He turned his head in horror, looking at the table knife firmly inserted into the wall behind him.Immediately, there was a stabbing pain on the cheek, and the wound slowly oozes blood, dripping onto the floor.
"If I were you, I would choose to speak well." The person who threw the throwing knife put one hand in his pocket, and idly dusted off the cigarette ash with the other.
"Woooooooooo!"
Zhou Qi: "I don't understand."
"Ohh Ohh ohh!"
Zhou Qi: "I'll give you one last chance."
"Huh?" The butler cursed in his heart.
Xu Chi: "..."
Xu Chi pulled out his socks in disgust.
Arnold said twice: "What do you want to know?"
Xu Chi: "The skirt's killing principle."
Arnold choked, his eyes wandered between the two of them bitterly, and then he put on his characteristic lizard sneer: "You guys kill me, killing me is breaking the rules, what consequences will be caused by breaking the rules... I don't think so. Need I say more! Come on! Put the knife on my neck!"
"Consequence...was struck to death by lightning?" Zhou Qi pulled out a table knife from the back of his waist again. This man didn't know when he used so many weapons without anyone noticing. He took the knife and patted the butler arrogantly. With a convulsed face, he said darkly, "I won't kill you. But I have many ways to make your life worse than death. Do you want to try it? Judging from your reaction just now, even npcs can feel pain. Can you feel it? It’s easy to handle when it hurts, let me think about it, where did I make the first cut...Huh? I just touched you lightly What’s your name?”
This person has a lot of aura, and when he speaks harshly, he still has a playful smile with his eyes bent, and his gestures are full of evil spirits.Xu Chi had an instant illusion that they were more like real villains than the butler who was hung up and beaten.
The butler trembled so badly that he wet his pants.
After five, six, seven, eight knives, the previously closed mouth like a clam shell was pried open unexpectedly, and two words were revealed: "Blood deed."
On the third day trapped in the manor, the butler disappeared.
When people were discussing, they saw Xu Chi blatantly wearing the housekeeper's clothes and going downstairs to eat.Everyone was dying of curiosity, but they dared not ask.Only Jiang Yu had the courage to step forward to inquire.
"Then what, you two, did you kill someone and take your clothes?"
Zhou Qi was very angry when he heard it, put down the knife and fork and said fiercely: "Do I look like that kind of person!"
Jiang Yu: "..."
Brother, you are a little self-aware, aren't you?
Zhou Qi squinted at people: "What kind of eyes do you have? Do you kill people if you have a criminal record? Comrade, criminals also enjoy human rights. You are blatantly discriminating against identity..."
Xu Chi now has a headache when he hears the word "discrimination", and presses his forehead to stop quickly: "The Duchess is here."
The "Duchess" complexion is not very good today, his dark eyes are shooting back and forth at Xu Chi and Zhou Qi, there are rust red stubbles on his lips, and the small eyes are rolling in the eye sockets, and something bad is brewing.
"It's time for Mass again." She smiled and said slowly, "The priest is already waiting in the church. All devout believers, the gift of the Holy Spirit is with you, please come with me."
Surviving people, you look at me, and I look at you.
Jiang Yu muttered: "I'm a free person with no religious belief in the new era, and I'm doing a fart mass? I'm afraid it's not some terrible pit?"
Ren Simiao, who was in a trance due to insomnia all morning, also had the same hidden worry: "Would it be possible that as soon as we step into the church, because we are not sincere believers, we will be strangled to death by Jesus with a cross?"
Jiang Yu: "To tell you the truth, I think it's very possible."
People were worried, but they had to follow the instructions and followed the Duchess who was leading the way.
Jiang Yu sighed and was held back when he raised his foot. He turned his head and asked, "What's wrong, brother?"
Someone held up a mysterious smile: "Come on, I have something to tell you."
The weather is still dull today, with white fog covering the sky, and the green plants in the manor grow as tall as a person, walking through it is like falling into a huge maze.Ren Simiao panicked, put aside the suspicion, and hugged Jiang Yu's arm tightly.
But Jiang Yu, who is 1.8 meters tall, was more scared than her, his arms, thighs and even his lips were trembling.
"Promising!" Ren Simiao slapped him on the back, "Learn from those two bosses!"
Jiang Yu was photographed screaming: "Sister, take it easy!"
"Who is your sister? My Ren family can't leave a poor beggar like you."
"Hey! How can my vagabond poetry allow you, a worldly person like you, to talk about it?"
"Oh mom, there are sects, let me tell you, you are stronger, or the beggar gang is stronger?"
"Of course it's us... Bah, Hugh compares my faction with those beggars from the beggar gang!"
The two of them spat back and forth, but gradually relaxed.
Soon, they arrived at the tower church in the southwest corner of the manor.
Pushing open the door, Jesus, who had suffered betrayal and suffering, opened his arms and was crucified on the cross.
Under the cross is a priest in a black robe with big arms and round waist.
The stained glass windows cast colorful light and shadows on the ground. The priest lowered his eyelids and gestured for everyone to sit down.
"May you all complete the Mass satisfactorily." The Duchess opened her mouth, and said in a strange way, with unknown tissues vaguely adhered to the yellow vertebrae.She sat down in the first row, closed her eyes, and clasped her hands in prayer.
As soon as Jiang Yu came in, she felt uncomfortable all over, with a gust of wind on her heels, she tried to shrink her shoulders when she sat down, wishing she could just slide off the bench and hide under Ren Simiao's skirt.
The priest raised his abnormally swollen hand and made the sign of the cross on his chest. His old voice was stale: "In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen."
Everyone: "Amen."
"May the love of the Father, the grace of Christ..."
=====
"Do you know where the Duke's bedroom is?"
Two guests who missed Mass wander around the castle.
Xu Chi: "I don't know."
"Intuition tells me that there are many dark rooms like last night." Zhou Qi paid attention to the surrounding walls, knocking on the walls all the way to see if there were any hidden mechanisms. He occasionally glanced at Xu Chi and frowned, "You don't look very good good."
"Lack of sleep." Xu Chi yawned and waved sickly, "Stop knocking on the wall, come and see here."
"Floor?" Zhou Qi lowered his head following his gesture and saw three holes in the floor in the corner. He vaguely remembered something, "The butler seems to have said that there are mice in the castle recently, gnawing on the floor everywhere."
"Yeah." Xu Chi squatted down, "If you want to cover it up, there must be something tricky."
He gestured to insert three fingers into the hole, grabbed it, and with a little force, the five square floors were easily lifted up, exposing the entrance of the dark hole underneath.
Looking at each other, Zhou Qi took off the kerosene lamp on the wall, held it in his hand, and jumped off.
Xu Chi followed closely behind.
The height was not high, but Xu Chi still staggered when he landed, because the ground was not stable and swayed from side to side.
Zhou Qi helped his lower back.
Xu Chi turned his palm outward and made a gesture of "no problem."
There must be many people around him booing him.Zhou Qi took a step back, and suddenly such a thought popped into his mind - because the gesture of refusing to care was too skillful.
The dim light of the kerosene lamp illuminated the surroundings, Zhou and Xu were surprised to find that they were in a simple boat, no wonder they felt bumpy just after jumping off.
The bottom of the boat is not a river, but a long slope with a cableway mechanism on the slope.
Xu Chi groped and felt a round bump on the wet wall. He pressed it down, and at the same time sat down in the boat, holding onto the side of the boat with his other hand.Immediately there was the sound of the rope being pulled from the bottom of the boat, and the boat slowly moved forward a few steps, and then swooped down like an arrow!
He did not remind Zhou Qi in advance before doing all this.
There is no need to remind, Zhou Qi's reaction is almost in sync with him.
Before the boat flew out, the person had already stabilized his body.
very good.Xu Chi thought to himself, this prison bully is not stupid, so he can save all unnecessary communication.
The speed of the boat was fast, then slow, and finally stopped steadily.They managed to reach the duke's "underground bedroom".
This is a magnificent underground cave, the vaulted ceiling is inlaid with various gemstones, refracting candlelight, shining like stars in the sky.The floor is covered with thick Persian carpets, the walls are full of exquisite murals and tapestries, open treasure chests can be seen everywhere at the feet, gold, silver and jewels are overflowing, the large bed with veils is made of ivory, and the twelve pillars are carved with nude women. The white stone pillars prop up this world of desire.
It is worth mentioning that there is also a luxurious sewing machine with a semi-finished tutu skirt on it.
Xu Chi squinted his eyes. He used to go in and out of the first palace, but in terms of extravagance, the Duke seemed to be better than that stupid king.
"Good guy, I sleep in the small treasury every day." Zhou Qi snorted, picked up the pure gold wine glass and poured a glass of wine, raised his head and drank it all, smacked his lips, and commented, "It tastes alright."
After tasting it, I was still a little annoyed: "Tsk, I thought it was a fallen nobleman who had no money for us to eat those pig food every day, and the co-author was a pennyless Grandet."
Xu Chi ignored him, wandered around, and finally stopped in front of the desk that smelled of sandalwood, picked left and right, found a roll of parchment with simple and tattered binding, and leaned against the desk to study it, frowning.
Zhou Qi's eyes followed the figure closely. He put down his glass, picked up the jug directly, and took a few sips at the spout.Turning his eyes, he noticed something and gave a slight snort.
In the corner stands a bronze figurine.Zhou Qi walked over.The figurine has a hollow face and a handle on the stomach, which looks like a standing heavy knight's armor.
"Don't move around..." Xu Chi couldn't stop it.
Zhou Qi had already pulled the handle away casually, and subconsciously dodged sideways.
=====
"May the Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive our sins, and grant us eternal life..."
Mass proceeded to the lengthy confession.
Bored, Jiang Yu stretched out his legs from under the skirt, coiled them up, and counted the hairs on his legs anxiously, halfway through the count, Ren Simiao scratched him with his nails.
"Don't move." Jiang Yu complained in a low voice, "If you interrupted me, I would forget where I was counting!"
Ren Simiao turned his head, with a puzzled expression on his face: "What did I do?"
"Didn't you just tickle me?"
"I scratched you? Are you dreaming?"
I checked their eyes, they are all honest people who don't play pranks.
Jiang Yu was about to cry: "What is that..."
Ren Simiao was also a little scared: "Don't be nervous, maybe you are too sensitive and have hallucinations."
"You, you are a doctor, what is the medical explanation for hallucinations?"
"Temporal lobe damage, brain neurotransmitter disorder, high fever, epilepsy, central nervous system pathology..."
Jiang Yu: "Stop, I feel better."
After 2 minutes, he felt bad again because he felt someone tugging at the hem of his skirt.He took a deep breath, bent over tremblingly to look under the bench, and stretched his neck—a pair of bleeding eyes met him.
=====
The imaginary organ has not been triggered.
Three seconds later, Zhou Qi poked his head out and smiled embarrassedly: "Then what, I forgot to tell you, I am a severe alcoholic, and the soles of my feet will feel dizzy when I touch alcohol."
Xu Chi didn't say a word, and snatched his flagon with his hands.
After paying it, he paid it, Zhou Qi muttered a few words, but did not resist.
The bronze figurines were opened, and the inside was hollow, with black old blood stains all over the walls, and the stench was overwhelming.
"I bet, nine out of ten of these are instruments of torture." Zhou Qi touched his chin and said.
Xu Chi was noncommittal.
The two circled around the bronze figurines.
Zhou Qi stretched out his hand and turned the ring on the right hand of the bronze figurine, chug chug, and a few muffled sounds came out from inside the figurine.After a pause for a few seconds, Xu Chi opened the door again, and the inside of the bronze figure was covered with dense iron thorns, and the sharp and ferocious thorns were covered with dried blood.
Zhou Qi narrowed his eyes: "Thousands of arrows pierce the heart, ruthless."
"Ren Simiao inspected the corpse before and said that the corpse was full of holes." Xu Chi's complexion was not good, "If it is not a coincidence, the skirt is a high-level advanced product evolved from this bronze figurine."
"Restricted by the rules, the butler can only reveal the word "blood contract" at most." Zhou Qi fiddled with the switch, and the iron spikes in the bronze figurines kept extending and retracting, twitching, "stuck in This instrument of torture, in addition to the tragic death method, has another distinctive feature, that is, it will cause a large amount of blood loss in the human body. Look at this groove."
Xu Chi followed his hand to look over - there was a sink at the bottom of the bronze figure that could seep into the liquid. Zhou Qi poked his finger into the base and pulled out a square container with a click.Xu Chi raised his eyebrows.
"The real purpose of the bronze figurines may not be to kill, but to collect blood. This may be a step in the conclusion of a blood contract." Zhou Qi speculated, "Then the question is, who will die here? Emiro De, or Jenny?"
After speaking, he looked at Xu Chi expectantly.
Xu Chi was inexplicable: "See what I do?"
Zhou Qi probed: "Don't you know?"
Xu Chi shook his head.
"Ha!" Zhou Qi took the opportunity to get hurt, "I thought you knew everything."
Xu Chi tried hard to discern the tone of the sentence, and turned his head: "Are you jealous?"
Zhou Qi blinked: "Huh? I'm jealous of you sick child?"
"Jealous that I'm smarter than you."
"..." Hearing his natural tone, Zhou Qi laughed angrily, patted the stains on his hands, "Hey, you kid, did you never know what modesty is?"
Xu Chi nodded: "It is true that some people say that I am arrogant."
In addition to arrogance, there are iron blood, dictatorship, reluctance, not knowing what is good or bad, etc...
Zhou Qi sincerely advised: "Listen to my brother's words, you should accept the opinions of people around you with an open mind, and if you have, change it, and strive to be a good person."
"You're right." Xu Chi pondered for a moment, looking over his shoulder, "But I'm smarter than you, that's a fact. I'm not proud of it."
Zhou Qi: "..."
What's the matter with him feeling even more upset?
"Now is not the time to discuss this." Xu Chi suddenly lowered his voice, "There is someone on the bed."
Xu Chi nodded: "It's indeed a ghost story."
Zhou Qi: "..."
"Do you still remember what Ren Simiao said before when he heard a strange singing before falling asleep?" Xu Chi asked.
"The little girl giggled and said she should be damned, really damned?" Zhou Qi's back felt cold, his handsome face was a little stiff, "Why, did you hear that too?"
"You should be able to hear it when you put on a skirt. Ren Simiao only heard the first half of the sentence." Xu Chi pointed to his ear, "The second half is a disguised reminder: get flustered, take off your clothes. Dad will kill you all." .”

"Take off your petticoat quickly."

"Come and visit."
"Okay, just right." Zhou Qi flexed his wrist, "The canned herring in the morning smelled too much, I have to come to complain."
A quarter of an hour later.
In Arnold's bedroom.
The poor housekeeper was forced to wear Xu Chi's black petticoat, which was tightly tied with hemp rope and hung from the ceiling.
It was the first time he had encountered such brutal treatment. After being beaten, Arnold was stunned and couldn't believe it: "You guys, how dare you beat me?"
Zhou Qi dug out a cigar from nowhere, lit it and put it in his mouth, rubbing his iron fist, white smoke overflowed from the corner of his mouth: "You are the one who hit you."

Ren Simiao was also a little scared: "Don't be nervous, maybe you are too sensitive and have hallucinations."
"You, you are a doctor, what is the medical explanation for hallucinations?"
"Temporal lobe damage, brain neurotransmitter disorder, high fever, epilepsy, central nervous system pathology..."
Jiang Yu: "Stop, I feel better."
After 2 minutes, he felt bad again because he felt someone tugging at the hem of his skirt.He took a deep breath, bent over tremblingly to look under the bench, and stretched his neck—a pair of bleeding eyes met him.
=====
The imaginary organ has not been triggered.
Three seconds later, Zhou Qi poked his head out and smiled embarrassedly: "Then what, I forgot to tell you, I am a severe alcoholic, and the soles of my feet will feel dizzy when I touch alcohol."
Xu Chi didn't say a word, and snatched his flagon with his hands.
After paying it, he paid it, Zhou Qi muttered a few words, but did not resist.
The bronze figurines were opened, and the inside was hollow, with black old blood stains all over the walls, and the stench was overwhelming.
"I bet, nine out of ten of these are instruments of torture." Zhou Qi touched his chin and said.
Xu Chi was noncommittal.
The two circled around the bronze figurines.
Zhou Qi stretched out his hand and turned the ring on the right hand of the bronze figurine, chug chug, and a few muffled sounds came out from inside the figurine.After a pause for a few seconds, Xu Chi opened the door again, and the inside of the bronze figure was covered with dense iron thorns, and the sharp and ferocious thorns were covered with dried blood.
Zhou Qi narrowed his eyes: "Thousands of arrows pierce the heart, ruthless."
"Ren Simiao inspected the corpse before and said that the corpse was full of holes." Xu Chi's complexion was not good, "If it is not a coincidence, the skirt is a high-level advanced product evolved from this bronze figurine."
"Restricted by the rules, the butler can only reveal the word "blood contract" at most." Zhou Qi fiddled with the switch, and the iron spikes in the bronze figurines kept extending and retracting, twitching, "stuck in This instrument of torture, in addition to the tragic death method, has another distinctive feature, that is, it will cause a large amount of blood loss in the human body. Look at this groove."
Xu Chi followed his hand to look over - there was a sink at the bottom of the bronze figure that could seep into the liquid. Zhou Qi poked his finger into the base and pulled out a square container with a click.Xu Chi raised his eyebrows.
"The real purpose of the bronze figurines may not be to kill, but to collect blood. This may be a step in the conclusion of a blood contract." Zhou Qi speculated, "Then the question is, who will die here? Emiro De, or Jenny?"
After speaking, he looked at Xu Chi expectantly.
Xu Chi was inexplicable: "See what I do?"
Zhou Qi probed: "Don't you know?"
Xu Chi shook his head.
"Ha!" Zhou Qi took the opportunity to get hurt, "I thought you knew everything."
Xu Chi tried hard to discern the tone of the sentence, and turned his head: "Are you jealous?"
Zhou Qi blinked: "Huh? I'm jealous of you sick child?"
"Jealous that I'm smarter than you."
"..." Hearing his natural tone, Zhou Qi laughed angrily, patted the stains on his hands, "Hey, you kid, did you never know what modesty is?"
Xu Chi nodded: "It is true that some people say that I am arrogant."
In addition to arrogance, there are iron blood, dictatorship, reluctance, not knowing what is good or bad, etc...
Zhou Qi sincerely advised: "Listen to my brother's words, you should accept the opinions of people around you with an open mind, and if you have, change it, and strive to be a good person."
"You're right." Xu Chi pondered for a moment, looking over his shoulder, "But I'm smarter than you, that's a fact. I'm not proud of it."
Zhou Qi: "..."
What's the matter with him feeling even more upset?
"Now is not the time to discuss this." Xu Chi suddenly lowered his voice, "There is someone on the bed."
