Lu Xiu took the handle to remove the debris blocking the entrance of the theater, freed up a road that was enough for people to pass through, and then took the lead in the first place: "Let's go in." ”

The inside of the theater was really dark, and there was no light at all, and it was really as the rickshaw driver said, and nothing could be seen.

Xie Lang leaned tightly on Xu Chunqiu's side, as if only by sticking to her arm could she draw some sense of security, and she even trembled in her voice: "Yes...... Is there a light?"

Fu Nanxun rubbed along the wall with great courage, and felt a bulge in a place, as if it was a button: "There is a switch." ”

He "snapped" and pressed the switch, and the lights in the theater did not turn on as expected.

"The light is broken. ”

The dilapidated opera garden has fallen into disrepair, and the lighting system inside has been abandoned for a long time, and it has long been useless.

Xie Lang's palms were already sweating, and there was almost a little cry in his voice: "No, no, no, you don't really want to play any four-corner game, right?"

There was silence for a moment in the pitch-black space, and Lu Xiu's deep voice came from the front: "Now it seems that this is the only clue." ”

Du Zigui frowned in the darkness and threw out a question: "But we don't know anything about the internal structure of this opera garden, how to play?"

Xu Chunqiu took a deep breath, if the general structure of the Lu Mansion is the same as it was a few decades ago, then is the same with the Beiping Theater?

She said, "We should be in the corridor on the first floor now. ”

"The corridor presents a 'mouth' shape, which surrounds the stage and the seat in the middle. If I'm not mistaken, the four corners of the four-corner game mentioned by the rickshaw driver before correspond to the four corners in the corridor. ”

Du Zigui pondered for a moment: "But there are five of us. ”

Xu Chunqiu nodded, she remembered that they were all in the dark, and they shouldn't be able to see each other's body movements, so she said softly "um" again.

"There were two people standing at the first corner, one of them leaving for the second corner, and the other standing still. ”

So each of the four men stood in one corner, and the other one moved from corner to corner, improvizing. ”

As he spoke, Xu Chunqiu stretched out his arms and tentatively groped along the wall, and the junction of the two walls formed a vertical angle.

She stopped: "This is it." ”

Xie Lang pulled Xu Chunqiu's arm tighter again: "What is here, why did you stop Qiuqiu?"

"This is the first corner. ”

The four corners of the corridor are named in a clockwise direction based on the location of Xu Chunqiu and his entourage.

If you look down from the top of the theater building, from the first to the fourth corner, the upper left, the upper right, the lower right, and the lower left of this "kou" shaped corridor are respectively opposite, and the first, third, second, and fourth are diagonally opposite.

"Now there needs to be one person standing in each of the four corners," Xu Chunqiu commanded calmly, and she added with some concern, "Xie Lang, can you?"

"What can it be?" Xie Lang's hand grabbed her arm tightly, as if he was afraid that he would lose it if he let go.

"Can you go stand in the second corner?"

Facts have proved that Xu Chunqiu's worries are not unreasonable, and Xie Lang doesn't care if Xu Chunqiu can see it in the dark, and his head shakes like a rattle.

The darkness of not being able to see your fingers was terrifying enough, not to mention standing alone in that corner.

Xu Chunqiu pondered for a moment and quickly made adjustments: "In this case, Teacher Fu will stand in the second corner, and Boss Du will stand in the third." ”

She paused and asked Fu Nanxun and Du Zigui for advice: "There is no problem, right?"

Both of them said that they had no objections, and Xu Chunqiu continued to arrange: "Xie Lang, you and Mr. Lu stay here together, after the game starts, you will walk from the first corner where Mr. Lu is to the second corner where Mr. Fu is, is this okay?"

In this way, Xie Lang has someone to answer whether he is going forward or backward, and it doesn't seem so scary.

Xie Lang nodded in a hurry, and reluctantly let go of Xu Chunqiu's wrist.

Xu Chunqiu didn't hear her reaction, and speculated in his heart that she had acquiesced.

"Where are you, Qiuqiu?"

Xu Chunqiu's gaze flickered slightly in the darkness, and he said as if relaxed: "I'm the last one, as long as I go back from the fourth corner back to the first corner where we are now, this game will be over." ”

It didn't sound like it was too difficult, but Xie Lang's breathing gradually stabilized under her comfort.

Several people dispersed, each occupying a corner of the corridor according to Xu Chunqiu's arrangement.

Lu Xiu and Xie Lang in the first corner stayed in place, Fu Nanxun in the second corner and Du Zigui in the third corner each walked to the designated position in the dark and stood up, Xu Chunqiu asked in the fourth corner: "Are they all in place?"

After receiving an affirmative response, Xie Lang set off from the first corner.

Xie Lang breathed heavily, her fingers out of sight in the silent corridor, she couldn't hear or see, her pupils couldn't focus on a single focus, and her temples jumped suddenly.

She swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued to walk with small steps.

I don't know how far there was in front of her, there was no reference in the darkness, she walked and walked, the trajectory under her feet became more and more oblique, and she actually hit her head on the wall next to the corridor.

She let out a "whoosh" of pain and touched her nose with a wrinkled face.

Xie Lang slammed into the wall firmly, his nose was sore head-on, and physiological tears suddenly filled his eyes, and his eyes were watery.

It shows that the secret room was knocked to the thigh by a low cabinet, and when he arrived at the theater, he had to hit his nose head-on, and this announcement was really troubled.

"Xie Lang, how are you, are you alright?"

She covered her nose and said in a nasal voice: "It's okay, I just ran into a wall." ”

Xie Lang went on the road again, she raised her hands in front of her, groping like a blind person, and shouted as she went: "Teacher Fu, are you still far away?"

Fu Nanxun's voice came from the front not far away: "It's almost fast, can you see the black clothes I'm wearing?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had said a nonsense, so he shut up.

"I can't even see the white clothes I'm wearing......"

Xie Lang didn't get a response, she was a little panicked, there was a cry in her voice, and she didn't know if it was because she bumped her nose just now or because she was afraid of the dark, she was aggrieved like a little coward: "Teacher Fu, don't stop, say something quickly!"

"What did you say?"

Xie Lang seemed to grasp the life-saving straw: "You can say whatever you want, just don't stop." ”
