Screaming Cycle

"Come on, after watching the excitement, it's all gone, all gone!"

At this time, a middle-aged man's voice sounded in the lobby, suddenly quieting the otherwise lively main hall.

Ji Yuan followed his reputation and saw a few monsters standing in the corridor on the third floor of the main hall. The headed one was dressed up as a steward, with delicate patterns embroidered on his headscarf. He was handsome and handsome with white face and beard, and he looked like Wu. The fairy monarch in Daozi's paintings.

Meiran has a good demeanor and does not yell, but when she speaks, her voice is very penetrating.

His voice reverberated in the lobby, and everyone could hear it clearly.

"Tonight's banquet is about to begin soon, so make preparations!"

This beautiful bearded steward was obviously very tall, and all the monsters gathered in the banquet hall scattered obediently.

Ji Xiaoniao followed behind Duck Jing, quietly preparing to leave.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Lu took a close look at the layout of the main hall.

This room looks a bit like the inn structure he has seen in the costume film. The entrance is a lobby that can accommodate more than a dozen seats. There is a staircase on each side of the main room, leading to the corridors on the second and third floors.

At this time, there were already a group of tall monsters wearing blue short coats, carrying tables, chairs, and low couches coming in, thinking they came to prepare for the opening of the table.

Ji Lu suddenly raised his eyes, and looked at each other with one of the guys in the Tsing Yi and short coat.

——Fuck, Brother Dagen!

This time, Mo Tiangen had a lot of shaggy beards, and he looked like he was ten years old, and he wrapped his head with a blue-gray cloth. If he changed into a robe, he would look like an Arab!

But how familiar they are, not to mention just having an extra beard, even if he only shows a pair of eyes like a ninja, Ji Lu is confident that he can recognize each other.

The eyes of the two touched for a second, then moved away casually, passing by tacitly, as if they were just passers-by who had never met.

"Ouch!"

Just as Ji Xuan stepped his leg across the threshold of the lobby, he suddenly heard a low voice from the duck spirit beside him:

"When did those two Tao puppets break?"

Hearing the words, Ji Yu followed the duck's sight and saw that in the courtyard outside the lobby, all kinds of decorations were randomly placed.

The location of these things is very arbitrary, completely not in accordance with the ancient architectural regulations, it is messy, and particularly indifferent, and there is no sense of dignity that a large family should have.

——It is indeed the house where the monsters live!

Ji Yu said in disgust in his heart.

As long as he thinks that these gadgets might be all made of living human beings, he just feels that they are very responsive.

While complaining about this messy house in his heart, Ji Xiaoniao moved his eyes, scanning the decorations outside the lobby door one by one.

Soon, he saw some doorways.

On the far right are three statues of real-life brass soldiers wearing armors, holding spears and halberds, majestic.

There was a dead tree obliquely behind the brass soldier. The leaves had already fallen out, but there were four wooden masks hung on the branches, all of which looked like vicious ghosts.

Directly in front is a small landscape of rockery and spring water. A gurgling spring gushes from the top of the rock and falls on two boys playing in the water carved from blue crystals in the pool.

On his left, there are three busts carved from hematite. The styles are rough and the colors are mixed. They are almost a product of the Stone Age, incompatible with the exquisite Soviet-style garden courtyard.

And beside the three hematite dolls, there are ceramic shards from the same place. Ji Tuan can only judge from the four remaining shoes on the base. The pottery figurines were originally about two human figures, one man and one woman.

Ji Lu noticed that these five groups of very abruptly placed human figures are arranged in the order of the five elements "Golden, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth" from right to left.

"Hey, hurry up, go back!"

The duck looked back and saw that Ji Shu had slowed down, he waved to him and urged:

"It's almost midnight. I can't find us later, she must be in a hurry!"

Ji Xuan immediately withdrew his attention from the several groups of statues and glanced at the water leak in the courtyard. When he saw the scale of the water surface was less than a quarter of an hour, he quickly trot two steps and caught up with the one in front of him. Little duck.

As he walked, he was still thinking about the statue of the five elements in his heart, and couldn't help but gently pressed his hand on the belt.

Not long ago, when the participant who was also from the "Peach Blossom Spring" with him was besieged by a crowd of monsters, Ji Tuan picked up a sign that had fallen from him.

It was a wooden sign not much bigger than Mahjong. The background color of the original wood was only coated with a light varnish—it was clearly the same as the one found in Ji Shu's coat when he woke up. The only difference was the one above. Engraved.

The original piece of Ji Tuan was engraved with "Golden Armor", and the piece dropped by the male servant was engraved with "Earth B".

These two words came by such a coincidence that Ji Lu couldn't help but associate them with the statue of the five elements he saw just now.

In particular, the sign in the hand of the manservant still starts with the word "earth", which coincides with the broken male pottery figurines. Following this logic, Ji Lu, after a little guess, finds it hard to say that "earth armor" refers to another one. The broken female pottery figurines, that is, the maid who turned into a peach tree?

With this inference, Ji Shuxing quickly calculated the number of all puppets.

There are three brass soldiers. He felt that the most likely counterpart was himself, as well as the three of Ren Jianmo and Mo Tiangen.

In this way, there are four people in the wood group, two in the water group, and three in the fire group. Not counting the two people in the soil group who left before midnight, there should be twelve players left in this "world". By……

…………

...

Ji Lu and the duck spirit returned to the back hall, and the snake spirit male steward surnamed She had already greeted all the little demons to hurry up to the back kitchen to help.

Ji Xiaoniao lowered his head, mixed himself into the busy pile of monsters, and took advantage of this opportunity to imprint all the road maps of the places he had been in his mind.

Time passed by one minute and one second, and soon there was only a short time left until midnight, which is twelve o'clock at midnight.

The sound of silk and bamboo sounded one after another in the mansion, and at the same time, Ji Tuan heard the voice of a strange young man, and it sounded softly and softly as if it was sticking to his ear.

[There is a game of hide-and-seek today, please come to the table. 】

The voice is difficult to distinguish between male and female, but it is different from the sharp and thin male duck voice that resembles an **** in the snake Jing She Guanshi. This voice sounds like the boys and girls before the voice change period, the tone is sweet and soft, and yet With a little glutinous nasal sound, it added a bit of sweetness.

If in normal times, Ji Yu met a teenager who talked like this, he would probably imagine that he was a beautiful and delicate child like a flower, and he would be curious about his looks while feeling good in his heart.

However, the feeling of Ji Xiaoniao at the moment can only be described by the words "creepy".

His hairs were standing upside down, goose bumps all over his body, and he resisted the urge to look around, forcing himself to remain calm and not to arouse the suspicion of the monsters around him.

Sure enough, except for Ji Shu, the busy little monsters around him still did their own things, and no one noticed the sudden soft youthful voice.

Ji Shu is more certain.

This voice is only audible to him, or to say, the performers from the "Peach Blossom Spring".

The only invited objects of this "hide and seek" game are the twelve "participants" who are still alive in the house.

[I will choose one of you at random, it is 〖Ghost〗. 】

The juvenile voice with nasal sounds then explained to everyone.

Ji Yu listened carefully and found that the rules of the game sounded uncomplicated, but very cruel.

The teenager told them that he would randomly select one of the participants to play the role of "ghost" in the game, and this person who acts as a "ghost" must find any person within half a stick of incense, that is, within fifteen minutes. Only when a player touches any part of the opponent's body with his hand and says "caught" at the same time, can he transfer the role of "ghost" to the opponent.

If a "ghost" player cannot find and catch someone who can replace him within 15 minutes, he will be "out" immediately-as for the cost of being out, of course, there is only a dead end.

What's more frightening is that the same person can only be a "ghost" twice at most. In other words, when he is caught for the third time, he will only die immediately on the spot.

After listening to all the rules of the game, Ji Tuan's forehead silently shed a drop of cold sweat.

Ji Xiaoniao remembers clearly, here is a big house full of monsters!

In other words, it is a very difficult and risky thing to run across the house to find another human under the premise of hiding one's own human identity.

What's more, apart from Ren Jianmo and Mo Tiangen, he did not recognize any other participants...

——Fuck, it's so insidious!

Ji Tuan secretly gritted his posterior molars creaking.

——The sinister part of this game is to make them, the actors, when their lives are threatened and desperate, to shoot at their most familiar companions!

Just when Ji Lu figured out this level of key points, Zi Shizheng's drums came from outside.

At the same time, the soft and glutinous boy voice lingering in his ears announced in a smiling tone:

[The game starts, [Ghost] has been born! 】

Ji Yu's heart tightened, and he reflexively looked down at the watch on his wrist, and found that there was an additional twelve-hour electronic clock on the dial. The shape is exactly the same as that of modern electronic watches. The only difference is that it is underneath. There is only one line of time reminder, and now this electronic watch is starting from 00:00:00, jumping forward every second.

The pointer on the progress bar moved forward for a short section, and the color of the pointer jumped over the white which represents relative safety, and went directly to the yellow state.

These changes clearly tell Ji Lu a fact that the "hide and seek" game has already begun!

Although he was randomly assigned the identity of "ghost" in the first round without lucky E, it also means that from this moment on, not only the monsters in the house, but also other actors from the "Peach Blossom Spring" Those who have become a potential threat!

Ji Lu can't help but recall the two sentences he saw in the trailer:

——Don't be found, don't be caught!

——Be careful, the ghost hiding by your side!

The author has something to say:

The meeting between the big root and the little bird:

Season: Brother Dagen! ! QAQ

Mo: Ji Xiaoniao! ! TAT

Ji: Brother Dagen, I miss you so much! !

Mo: Brother Ji Xiaoniao misses you too! !

Ji: But I can't come to recognize you now! !

Mo: Yes, I don't dare to recognize you ah ah ah ah! !

The whole time was expressionless, and then walked away silently.
