Chapter 84: The Rat Maze: A Guide for the Dead
"Huha, huha......"
The panting sound of running for his life, mixed with heavy snorts, permeated the narrow labyrinthine aisles, sounding particularly harsh in the silence. Lian Xiaolian couldn't hold it anymore, her steps slowed down, and she turned around breathlessly and asked, "That, that...... Woman, are you still chasing? ”
Before the other two could open their mouths, a long shadow jerked out of the corner and responded to her question.
The mouthparts came straight in the direction of Lao Wang, and he shrank his head in fright, and the mouthparts embedded with sharp teeth on both sides scraped a long wound on the wall, and the broken bricks and stones fell in clusters, smashing him on the head and face.
"X fuck, don't run away!" When Lao Wang raised his head again, he finally made up his mind, and after shouting fiercely, he grabbed Lian Xiaolian's arm: "I don't believe that the three of us can't beat her alone!" Didn't this rabbit also be knocked unconscious by our team? ”
"Well, that's all there is to it—"
"However, that's because the rabbit lacks an advanced ability, but she ......" Zhong Junkai persuaded his girlfriend with a little anxiety: "Why don't you return the rabbit to Miss Lin, let's go find a cubicle together, ah?" ”
Lian Xiaolian suddenly frowned in disgust, and said in a cold voice, "You're still not a man?" Among us, only your advanced ability is not missing-I think Lao Wang is right, can you help or not? ”
"She's as weak as we are now...... Xiao Zhong, you can rest assured. Seeing Zhong Junkai staring at his girlfriend speechless, Lao Wang grinned at him. Besides, there is Miss Lian and me. ”
Looking at Lin Sanjiu, who was walking towards a few of his people not far away, Zhong Junkai felt that he was being pushed behind his back, and even Xiao Lian urged: "You hurry up, otherwise do you want me to die?" ”
He gritted his teeth, finally lowered his waist, made a sprinting posture, and pounced on Lin Sanjiu.
Lin Sanjiu listened to their conversation in his ears, and was engrossed in guarding against it, seeing that he rushed over at an astonishing speed, he didn't dare to take it hard, and immediately moved to the side - but unexpectedly, Zhong Junkai seemed to have eyes behind him, made a sharp turn, and hit him again with a ferocious momentum.
【Hit-and-run】
The exclusive ability of the rich children gives the body the same speed as a mortal F1 car, up to several tons of dead weight, and anyone who is hit by such a collision will either die or be seriously injured. But as the perpetrator, he was able to get out of the scene safely and without incident.
The aisle of the labyrinth was too narrow, and Lin Sanjiu only avoided it once, and found that he had no room to dodge - seeing Zhong Junkai's figure crashing over like a bison, she was in a hurry, and threw the mouthpiece in her hand above the wall, and the spikes immediately sank into the wall. Immediately, Lin Sanjiu kicked his feet, and threw his body into the air with momentum.
Zhong Junkai hit the wall with a "bang", and the towering and continuous black wall was even swayed by him.
Probably he didn't expect that Lin Sanjiu, who was already in a predicament, would suddenly disappear from his eyes, he held his shoulders and couldn't help but be stunned for a second.
However, in this short second, Lin Sanjiu had already swung down again with his mouthparts, and kicked him in the face heavily, he didn't even have a chance to resist, he had already fallen to the ground, and he didn't get up for a long time - the courage he had just mustered up was kicked away, and he was reluctant to fight this time, and Zhong Junkai had no fighting spirit left at all.
Lin Sanjiu glanced at him, ignored it, and turned his head to walk in the direction of Lao Wang and the others-unexpectedly, she was stupid when she raised her eyes.
At the other end of the aisle, it is empty at the moment, where is there still half a figure?
"You idiot!" She couldn't help but say angrily to Zhong Junkai on the ground: "They just used you as a delaying tactic!" You believe everything people say, are you deceived?! ”
"No, it can't be...... Little mercy! Zhong Junkai's face turned even whiter, ignoring Lin Sanjiu's idiot-like gaze, he hurriedly stood up and shouted, "Little pity-!" I'm fine, where are you? ”
His eager voice wafted through the dark space, and was much drowned out by the high walls, and when it reached Lian Xiaolian's ears, only a vague murmur remained.
Lao Wang, who was panting like a cow beside her, glanced at Lian Xiaolian, and said with a smile: "You, you are very ruthless!" ”
The petite girl didn't answer, and Qi bangs were blown away in the wind, revealing her unmoved face.
"Run, you, your boyfriend...... I'm going to starve to death, hey, hey, hey......" Lao Wang wanted to reach out and wipe the sweat off his face, but his arm was soft and couldn't lift it. "Fei is so strong, so strong, only to be a rich second generation ......"
"Why do you talk so much nonsense?" Lian Xiaolian glanced at him impatiently, and was secretly a little frightened. "What do you say, don't ......" was speaking, and the road in front of him ended, and two forks in the road appeared. Lian Xiaolian stopped his steps, thought about it, and gasped and walked into the passage on the right.
Lao Wang chased after him, and his mouth didn't stop: "Isn't Zhong Junkai the son of the boss of Wanbao Real Estate?" Hey...... I used to run a company, and I met and saw him......"
The road on the right didn't go for half a minute, and it came to the end, which turned out to be a dead end. For my body, this is equivalent to not eating for half a day, and my stomach is constantly pouring pantothenic acid...... Lian Xiaolian was so hungry that she only felt as if her stomach was about to eat other internal organs, and after listening to Lao Wang's words, she suddenly said angrily: "So what? ”
As they spoke, the two turned around and walked towards another fork in the road.
"Several companies that do business with Wanbao have heard about it...... Boss Zhong's son is about to get married, but he broke up with his daughter-in-law for a woman of unknown origin......" Lao Wang laughed hesitantly, "The world is ruined, why are you still by his side?" ”
Lian Xiao Lian looked at another high wall not far away, and her heart was so anxious that she wanted to scream by her hair—but fortunately, after taking two more steps, she realized that there was a path on the right side in front of the wall. Lian Xiaolian breathed a sigh of relief, and casually scolded: "Who do you say is unknown?" Hmph, he's quite lucky, he has a lot of abilities and items...... Belch? …… What is it? ”
There was a plastic sheet of paper taped to the wall in front of him, which was rattling in the wind.
The two men stepped forward with some suspicion and removed the plastic paper. Lao Wang turned over and looked at it, and muttered to himself: "What kind of painting is this......"
However, there was a sudden silence for a few seconds, and then a loud, saliva-swallowing "coo" sound broke the silence. Immediately afterwards, Lao Wang felt that Lian Xiaolian beside him suddenly took a few steps forward, and he hurriedly turned around and said, "Hey, you wait......"
Halfway through the words, he froze, and he was stupid.
In the aisle, on the ground not far ahead, there was food.
The aroma of food being baked by the steaming heat in the air can almost hook people's stomachs and intestines. How long has it been since I've seen a fresh, hot dish like this? Bright yellow and bright large eggs are dotted with green chives; The rich skin of the stewed pork knuckle trembles, and there is a layer of red oil on it, which makes the fried kale next to it even more verdant.
The two of them took two steps in a daze, and then no one said a word of nonsense, and rushed forward.
"No, isn't it...... Didn't Mr. Dian say that there is a table here......" Lao Wang forcibly endured the saliva gushing out of his mouth, his tongue soaked in saliva, and he couldn't even speak clearly. "It doesn't look like it's a four-person serving—"
"Then you say, where did all this food come from?" Xiao Lian didn't even raise her eyelids, as if she was afraid that she would slow down, she reached out and grabbed a large piece of oily and fluffy tender eggs, and stuffed them into her mouth at once. "Aren't there four things here!"
She was in a hurry, perfunctory, desperate for the hot egg to soothe her hungry stomach.
As soon as Lao Wang saw that she was moving, he hurriedly grabbed a piece of pig's knuckle, scooped up a small piece of steamed rice, opened his mouth wide, and sent it into the esophagus one by one. "Well, it's good, it's delicious......"
The taste was so delicious—not because I was hungry, but because the food itself was supremely delicious—a mellow and fragrant flavor with a little bit of fat that melted in the mouth as if it were about to melt at once, and melted into a delicious mass between the lips and teeth. After being hungry for so many days, eating meat suddenly is not good for your health-Lao Wang thought as he forced himself to chew a few more bites, and then he couldn't wait to swallow the pork knuckle meat.
Just as he reached out to get the egg, he saw that Lian Xiaolian's cheeks, which were stuffed and chewing, suddenly stopped moving, and only looked at him fixedly.
Lao Wang took the opportunity to grab all the eggs in the box into his hand, glanced at her suspiciously, and then stuffed them into his mouth.
With a "plop", Lian Xiaolian opened her eyes and smashed her body straight to the ground. White foam mixed with the kale she hadn't had time to chew on, squirting out from the corners of her mouth.
Before Lao Wang could react to what was going on, his vision suddenly went black.
…… Two minutes after they died, a figure staggered around the corner.
"[Unedible lunch] ......? How—Why is it here? Lin Sanjiu had a pale face, staring at the scene in front of him in surprise. Scattered across the rice and dishes, two stiffened bodies lay out, their skin gradually turning yellow at a rate visible to the naked eye...... After looking at it for a while, she reacted, and hurriedly squatted on the ground to dig out Lian Xiaolian's pocket.
The brown-haired rabbit, which was limp and motionless, was still slightly hunched together when she pulled it out of her pocket.
"Scared, scared me to death......" Lin Sanjiu breathed a sigh of relief and put the rabbit in his field pants pocket. Her nostrils were filled with the aroma of food, and she had to pinch the skin of her hands so hard that she couldn't help but pounce on the food.
However, a black shadow suddenly rushed behind her, reached out and grabbed the food, and let out a meaningless low roar from her mouth - it was Zhong Junkai. Lin Sanjiu took a lot of effort to stop him, and shouted angrily: "Don't eat!" Didn't you see that both of them were poisoned to death? ”
It was only then that Zhong Junkai noticed his girlfriend, whose face had turned bright yellow and whose body was stiff.
He was so frightened that he threw away the pig hand in his hand, sat on the ground, and stepped back: "Lin, Miss Lin...... What's going on? ”
Lin Sanjiu looked at him in disbelief: "Isn't this your thing?" Special item, [Uneaten Lunch]! ”
[Uneaten Lunch] was won back from the treasure chest by Lin Sanjiu in the first round of the game. Since Lao Wang and Lian Xiaolian ate this lunch without hesitation, it means that the thing is definitely not theirs - then except for Lin Sanjiu and the brown-haired rabbit, only Zhong Junkai is left.
But Zhong Junkai stared at the food and shook his head like crazy: "No, no, no, no, I don't...... This one isn't mine! ”
Lin Sanjiu frowned and thought about it, then suddenly said "ah" and patted his head.
Yes, in the first round of the game, both the red and white teams were deducted from multiple prizes and put them in treasure chests. Then what she won back may not be the red team's stuff...... It seems that this item was returned to its original owner, and was used to set up such a trap, killing two members of the RED team in one fell swoop.
"This labyrinth is so big, the red and white teams set out from both sides, and if they meet here now......" Lin Sanjiu muttered to himself in a low voice, stepped over the corpse, and walked forward. In other words, we are almost in the middle of the labyrinth. ”
"The cubicle can't be located particularly close to a certain team, otherwise it would be too unfair......" Thinking of this, she was excited, and immediately looked up and looked around.
"The dinner table is around here!" R1152
