Volume 7: Escape Room (34)
"Literally?" Lin Yingkong raised his eyebrows.
Feng Rong didn't think deeply about the meaning of these words for the first time, but picked up the small wooden sign engraved and looked at it, this wooden sign is only one centimeter square, very thin, but the workmanship is very fine, and even carved with complicated flower ornaments, which is far from the difference between the previous random carving on the Ferris wheel tree man, not like a disposable item, he rubbed for a moment, and said: "Wait this thing, let's bring it." "There is also a little tree man who has not appeared, and the members of both of their groups have been scattered, and Feng Rong feels that these clues may not only be applied in the haunted house, but he doesn't know if the clues that others have received are the same.
But it's not very reliable to share clues with others, before on the roller coaster, it was not easy for the two sides to cooperate and turn their faces, and this time they are expected to go their own way, Feng Rong actually didn't think that the so-called teammates or team members could work together from his heart, not to mention that Qi Hui and others were not familiar with them, even the group of people who were familiar with each other also had their own ghosts, and the dark tide was turbulent when they looked at it, and they didn't know what was wrong.
Lin Yingkong nodded to show that he understood, picked up the small wooden card and rubbed it, Feng Rong threw it to him to think, and ran again to pull out those fake skeletons and look at them carefully, and said with a strange expression after a while: "These corpses ......"
"Corpse?" Lin Yingkong noticed the subtlety of his words.
“…… There are traces of torture and murder on it. Feng Rong also subtly added the second half of the sentence.
Lin Yingkong was stunned for a moment, since it was a game of escape room, there must be some connection between the things placed here, just now in the chaos of the mourning hall, someone mentioned the wizard, he thought that this might be the so-called hiding hole where the wizard did the experiment, but the corpse abuse is to desecrate the corpse, and the wizard will experiment on the corpse, but he will not play such a disgusting set.
Listening to Lin Yingkong's doubts, Feng Rong was also puzzled, "There are traces of spell casting, but it is very clumsy, it is not like a professional, the deceased is a horizontal death, and there are nine corpses here, all of them are female corpses." ”
"Is there a half-hanger who is harming people here?" Lin Yingkong caught a hint of the key, "So that eldest lady may have been killed by casting a spell?
"Maybe we can go out and ask somebody. Feng Rong said thoughtfully, he thought that those big young masters and little young ladies could talk to them before, maybe other people could too, what did Yan Mi say when he discussed the game with him last time, it seemed that this was called triggering the plot.
Assistant Lin didn't know that his minister was taken by a certain corn, and asked, "Minister, have you thought of a way to get out?"
"Well, we're on the tip of the horns, literally," Containment put away the small wooden signs, "Since seeing is false, it means that what I'm seeing isn't all true." ”
Lin Yingkong, who can't play a role in eyesight at present, heard the mystery, "What do you see...... You just said you didn't have a fork in the road when you came in?"
"Well, it looks like there's no way out. ”
Feng Rong and Lin Yingkong returned to the place where they met just now, and then walked forward a little, and walked to the location where Feng Rong's memory was connected to the outside, this place was completely closed at first glance, the rock wall was mottled, mossy and overgrown, there was no flaw at all, but Feng Rong walked forward to get started and rubbed carefully, there was no echo when he knocked here, the inside of the rock wall seemed to be solid, Feng Rong touched it but didn't know what he touched, his eyebrows were loosened, his palm was strong, and he actually pushed a rock wall away!
It's strange to say, the rock wall of the entire space here is like a whole, Feng Rong started this hand, this place was pushed open like a gate, revealing a new walkway, and the air with the smell of grass and trees poured in, Feng Rong took Lin Yingkong and walked forward for three or two minutes, drilling a low hole, and sure enough, they had returned to the garden.
Looking back again, the low hole had been sealed, and the recovered spiritual sense tried to probe inside, but found nothing, Feng Rong sighed: "What a formation to change the scene." "In the blink of an eye, people and even things can be removed.
Lin Yingkong suddenly frowned and said, "By the way, minister, we went around inside, what about the person who pinched me?"
Feng Rong was also stunned, and Lin Yingkong "looked at each other", there was only a bunch of fake bones that couldn't get up from there, where did the people come from?
It's not one or two things to encounter strange things here, they can't go back to that place, so they have to put it down for the time being, outside, the water rope connecting the two people has also recovered its function, Lin Yingkong was led away leisurely, and then made up the water rope brain into a red rope in his mind, that feeling is really not ordinary sour.
After wandering around for a while, he didn't bump into the rest of the third and fifth groups, but he came across a panicked servant, who was quickly stopped by them - it should be said that the servant obediently "was" stopped when he saw them, otherwise they would not have been able to hold a hologram.
The servant's eyes flickered, "Two adults, are you still looking for my eldest lady?"
"Looking for it is to be found," Lin Yingkong didn't know what the identities of these outsiders here were, but it didn't prevent him from pretending to be a tiger, "But before that, should you explain something, if you dare to hide something......
Who knew that the servant knelt down, "My lord spares my life, I don't know anything!"
Lin Yingkong looked at him with pity, "You don't admit yourself, will I still believe that you don't know anything?"
This hologram is made realistically but not very intelligently, no need to torture to extract confessions, and the threat will pour out all that he knows, only to say that several maids have died in the house before the death of their eldest lady, and it is said that the death is particularly tragic, and they have been dealt with by the eldest lady's nurse so that they have not caused rumors, but I didn't expect that even the master had an accident in the end.
That's all the servant knows, but he pointed the clue to the eldest lady's nurse, Lin Yingkong sighed with emotion, this routine is really like an online game plot, Wan Nian will only do a calm and dazed look at the topic of the second dimension, and he actually expressed his deep sympathy, Lin Yingkong was suddenly surprised and powerless: How many strange things did Yan Mi instill into his family minister under his nose?
So the next work became-uh, still looking for someone, although the servant said that the nurse lived in a courtyard called Xiaozhongyuan, but God knows where the courtyard was, not to mention the riot just now, people may have long since disappeared, this is much more difficult than catching people casually before, they successively asked several passing servants for questioning, but by the way, one of their team members Liu Qianyun was picked up.
Among the three human female college students, Zeng Yufen was irritable and Chen Siya was cowardly, but Liu Qianyun was the calmest, but at this time, she also bumped out of a corner with messy steps and panicked eyes, which made Lin Yingkong and Feng Rong suddenly surprised. Liu Qianyun was also surprised when she saw them, looked back several times, and said in shock: "...... It's finally out. ”
"Liu Qianyun?" Lin Yingkong had already determined who was coming through her shadow, but she didn't find anything special behind that corner, and asked suspiciously: "Where did you come from? Weren't you with Chen Siya before?"
Liu Qianyun seemed to have been running for a while, panting, Lin Yingkong helped her take out the mineral water and unscrew it, she drank two sips before she took a breath, and replied: "We just found out that you were gone, and then we were trapped in a maze, and I couldn't find a way out, Siya was separated from me, I ran into a worm nest, and a bunch of scorpion spiders followed me......" She swallowed her saliva, and the experience of being chased by insects was really terrifying for girls, "I ran and ran out inexplicably." Speaking of this, she glanced back again, as if she was worried about Chen Siya.
Worm nest? That might be the work of the half-wizard...... Lin Yingkong said harmlessly: "Since you can come out safely, then Chen Siya will definitely be fine." By the way, we just fell into a cave and ran into a pile of corpses, and got a hint from the nurse who asked us to find the house, did you find anything?"
Lin Yingkong's attitude is as if she is a teammate who cooperates seamlessly, her eyelashes are crooked, and the closeness is very natural, Liu Qianyun hesitated for a moment and said: "I got the prompt to go to the backyard Xiaozhong Courtyard, I don't know if it is related to your prompt." ”
Lin Yingkong naturally knew that she wasn't completely telling the truth, but for now, knowing this was enough, and the three of them looked for the way to the backyard together, but after walking for a while, they picked up the last member of the fifth group, Qi Hui.
Qi Hui was even more embarrassed than Liu Qianyun, when they saw him, he still had a carrion on his body, and he couldn't get rid of it, and when Feng Rong purified the spell on the carrion corpse with water, Qi Hui ran out of several meters like a rabbit, and then sat directly on the ground with weak legs - the carrion corpse was made so realistic, the rancid smell and the rotten meat worm maggots that were sparse...... Until Qian Hui was drenched with water several times by the minister, the three of them still silently distanced themselves from him, and Qian Hui himself was also a dish.
The four of them exchanged information as they should have and each other, and the poor Qian Hui fell directly into the rotting corpse cave, but it also fell the most valuable, because he found the place where the owner of the cave cast a spell in the rotting corpse cave, and turned over a hairpin that she had left behind - which means that the murderer could be a woman?
It's just that the problem arises, when they heard in the mourning hall, the most suspicious object was the eldest young master and the deceased's fiancé, so if their suspicion was ruled out, who else could be the most suspicious?
Now the clue is that the nurse dealt with the maid who died in the house of unknown cause→ the backyard of the small heavy courtyard→ the person who lived in the small heavy courtyard was the nurse...... Qian Hui hesitated, "Since the servant said that the bodies of those dead maidservants were all disposed of by the nurse...... does that mean that the murderer is the nurse? But is it really that simple?
Liu Qianyun had a different opinion, "Maybe this is something that the murderer carried with him, doesn't the eldest lady's fiancé have another love, maybe it is a love token." ”
