Because this matter is a long story, Yu Xing directly made a long story short, omitting a lot of inconsequential details (such as threatening hysteria), and put the current situation in front of Huai and Bai.

In a word, it is now Yu Xing to go down the passage, find Zeng Lai, and destroy the roses that the great wizard gave to Alice on the premise that he may be strong.

Huai was silent for a while, although he was good at using the advantages of the sacrifice to go to the plot, but he never found a way to end the deduction in the first few hours of the deduction, which is tantamount to a hundred and twenty minutes of exam, you just finished reading the paper, filled in a few choices, and other scholars have already handed in the paper.

Especially this top student: "Isn't it just to hand in the paper 100 minutes early, and it's not a big deal, don't make a fuss." ”

The absurdity was also stunned for a while, and at the end, he picked the hem of his clothes with his fingers. The girl's brain circuit is very jumpy, and her first reaction after hearing it is not shock or surprise, she is still thinking about the initial topic: "Then if you tell us this, won't you waste time looking for gamblers?" In case it's late to go......"

Yu Xing glanced at her: "I don't know how many people can pass through this passage." If you can help, whether it's going down with me or pinning Alice in the castle, it's enough to offset the loss of time, then it's a waste of time. ”

Huai came to his senses, and he no longer dared to look too good-looking in front of him, so that people would ignore the strength of the young man with a trace of underestimation. He originally thought that Zeng Lai would be the main contributor to this deduction game, plus him, and the two of them would be the main contributors to deduction, but he didn't expect that it would be the luck of this self-proclaimed newcomer who rushed all the way to the front of the plot.

Is this a newcomer?

Hum.

It's either a liar or a demon.

It's not that there really is such a huge difference in strength between the deducers who have just been promoted to the differentiation level and the deducers who have been promoted for a period of time, in fact, there are two external factors that cause the gap, one is the ability and quantity of sacrifices, but the physical fitness of the points exchanged, such as physical strength, strength, and the acuity of the five senses, which affects the ability to resist damage, the speed of wound healing, and the speed of escape...... Wait a minute.

The two do need to be accumulated, but the former has a certain element of luck, and if the luck is not good to fuse a garbage ability, it is necessary to find a new sacrifice as soon as possible to complete the replacement, and the latter has an upper limit when exchanging, and it cannot exceed the physical fitness that humans should have.

The biggest gap factor is actually something abstract.

Memory, reasoning, calculation, imagination, and even experience, psychological quality, brain holes...... These things that cannot be touched can ultimately determine whether a person is strong or not.

Because no matter how good the sacrifice is, it can't kill ghosts when the rules don't allow it, and no matter how good your physical fitness is, you can't go head-to-head with those powerful and weird ghosts in the deduction. For example, in the Seqing Bar, the reason why Yu Xing and Zhao Yijiu were able to kill ghosts was because the deduction at that time put forward the rule of [ghosts can be killed].

If there were no rules in that event, even if Zhao Yijiu had good physical fitness, neat skills, and strong [stop killing] attack power, it would be impossible to kill a lowest-level discouraged ghost, at most it would be a state of "you can't kill me, and I can't kill you".

The biggest effect of these two, in addition to confronting others, is self-preservation, helping to escape, and assisting in deduction.

Only one person's thinking is the factor that determines whether he can become a star interpreter, be noticed by others, or die in the absence of people, Qu Zhiqing's combat effectiveness is feared, but her own deduction ability is not weak at all.

After all, the core of this strange and absurd world is called "deduction", reasoning and evolution, and the ultimate goal is the truth that is hidden under sin.

This iron law is already in effect as soon as the interpreter steps into the absurd world, and when it reaches the differentiation level, the higher the level, the more obvious the comprehension of this point.

"Rules" seem to be irreversible.

As a real experienced deducer, Huai naturally will not be proud of his many sacrifices, his confidence in his own strength still comes from the ability to explore the plot and collect clues, he asked himself that in the current level, there are not many people who will be stronger than him in the ability to collect clues.

The reason why everyone despises newcomers is, in the final analysis, because they think that newcomers do not have as much experience in deduction as veterans, and their way of thinking has not been exercised, so their sensitivity to the plot is naturally weaker than that of veterans.

In the first few deductions, people with no background, who did not survive screaming and fear, were exhausted just thinking about how to survive with their thighs, and how could they have time to exercise their thinking and adapt to the rhythm of the absurd world. It was only at the stage of the advanced deducer that the problem was barely solved - those who didn't fit in died.

Huai put a question mark in his heart.

The question is...... Fortunately, this guy's deduction ability is really something that newcomers can have?

Even if it is a force like the three major families, the younger generation has a certain understanding of the existence of the absurd world, and they will not do better than luck.

You can't be pretending to be a newcomer to your teammates, right?

Feeling that he had a slight possibility of being deceived, Huai finally pulled himself out of the chaos of thoughts, he glanced at Yu Xing up and down, his eyes swept over Yu Xing's sweatshirt that seemed to be soaked in blood, and then looked at the smiling face mask hanging on the side of Yu Xing's belt, and finally stopped on Yu Xing's narrow eyes and the small mole under the tail of his left eye.

Well, I really haven't seen this person, and Huai vaguely remembers the name of the rookie competition a few days ago.

That's true, he met a newcomer with great potential.

Huai remembered this face.

This is a face that will be loved or adored or hated or feared in the future.

Perhaps the less talking, the more indifferent the person becomes, the more he likes to think about something in his mind, and the whiteness is much more direct than the Huai who thinks silently. The girl exclaimed, and then her soul asked, "Didn't you think that what if you told us so many things, and we didn't plan to help?" ”

Huai's attention was concentrated, and he also wanted to know the answer to this question.

Yu Xing smiled and looked at the two.

"But if you come to me and ask me to tell you about it, if you waste my time and don't plan to make up for it, aren't you bullying me as a newcomer?" He was aggrieved, and he knew that this person was pretending, or he was insincere and didn't intend to make others believe it, but he still felt a little "guilty".

She felt the sudden maternal brilliance and lamented, "Ah...... Beauty misleads the country, beauty misleads the country. ”

Huai: "......"

The corners of Huai's mouth were pressed down: "Then you should improve your resistance in this regard, otherwise if you encounter a good-looking ghost in the future, will you forget to escape." ”

Desolate: "Big Huai has a point!" ”

The green tendons on Huai's forehead suddenly protruded twice, and he no longer followed this deviant topic, he believed that fortunately he must be sure that the two of them would choose to help, so he would say it.

He turned his head to Yu Xing and said, "We can help, the passage and clues were discovered by you after all, so let's do it, after you go down, I'll try to see if I can go in again, if I can, I'll go down-"

Ridiculous raised his hand: "I'll go too, I'll go!" ”

"......" Huai pressed his temple, "If it can only enter alone, I will contain Alice in the castle with White, and try to make Alice arrive later when you and the gambler meet Rose, so as to create a little more life for you." ”

Yes, although Yu Xing has found shortcuts and hidden routes, it is obviously more dangerous to go deep into the Rose Tunnel than the two-day delay of two days of delaying time and completing the tasks announced during the meal.

If it succeeds, all the deducers will directly complete the deduction, and if they fail, they will only die the following attempters.

It seems that there is a bit of self-sacrifice in it.

Yu Xing nodded, his gaze falling on the stairs on the side of the pitch-black passage.

Turning over lightly, holding the edge of the passage with one hand, his watering can in the other, and pushing his legs the next few steps, he was already inside the passage, leaving only one head still exposed.

He said, "Then I'll go down and see you back." ”

With that, let go of your hand.

Huai He Bai watched his movements, and saw Yu Xing fall rapidly, quickly disappearing into the darkness, and his face changed - what's the matter, when you go to find a gambler, you have to go down in exactly the same way?

You can climb down the ladder, why do you have to jump!

Huai coughed: "I'll see if I can get down." ”

He tried to reach out for a hand, and sure enough, he received the same prompt as Yu Xing in the passage of the main building.

[The darkness here is breathtaking, even with companions can be intimidating, and you find that the entrance to the cave seems to be arranged with an enchantment, and only one person can enter it. 】

[There is more than one entrance to the destination, so let's look for another entrance.] 】

Alice, it seems, is very guarded, and she does not allow anyone to enter her passage except herself.

"Can't get in?" Blank and white, "I can't go all the way with the handsome guy." ”

Huai couldn't bear it: "Am I not handsome?" ”

"It's okay, you're too thin." Absurd and straightforward.

Huai paused, and said suspiciously: "Which one is thin?" ”

White: "Figure...... Huh? Good guys, which 'shou' do you think I said? ”

Huai breathed a sigh of relief, and then was dazed.

What happened, why did he bother with this, could it...... He also has an inexplicable desire to win? But it's true that although he doesn't rely on physical fitness to deduce and doesn't fight, it might be good to exercise once in a while.

At least it won't be ridiculed as "weak and can't help the wind" several times in a row.

Looking at the desolate and enthusiastic eyes, Huai sighed and wisely changed the topic: "Forget it, let's restore the bed and then go and see where Alice is." ”

……

Darkness swept all around him, and the feeling of falling kept getting worse.

Yu Xing was wrapped in pure black, and he couldn't find any point of borrowing in the air, so he could only let himself fall in the environment where he couldn't see his five fingers, the wind blew from below, and the black broken hair slapped back and forth on his face, bringing a burst of pain.

The reason why I chose to fall directly is that I don't mean anything else, it's just fast.

In the image he saw through the hysteria, although Zeng Lai was covered in small wounds, it was obvious that none of them were fatal wounds, except for pain, which basically did not affect his movements. In other words, at least falling down the passage, there will be no big deal.

In the case of skin trauma, for Yu Xing, recovery is a matter of a few breaths, and the passage does not know how long, rather than spending a long time and carefully climbing down, it is better to fall freely.

Not to mention...... With his current weak chicken physical strength, he can't climb for a few minutes, and he is estimated to have weak hands and feet, unable to grasp the ladder, and then fall.

Falling early and falling late is a fall, as long as I take the initiative, others can't see that I can't do it.

Falling all the time, Yu Xing gradually felt that the space around him was getting bigger and quieter, except for the sound of his heartbeat, only a gust of wind slid through his eardrums.

At the same time, a secret sense of panic spread, as if it was about to turn into substance, clinging to his skin from the air, in a vain attempt to penetrate his body.

The cold aura began to surge in his body, driving away all the strange aura from outside, Yu Xing shivered irrepressibly, feeling the difference between the body and the outside world, and sighed.

It's annoying, it seems that in the Rose Tunnel, there are things like the black coffin in the ancestral hall of Coffin Village, which completely mobilizes the power of his curse.

…… It's another difficult scene.

Suddenly, the surrounding air condensed, Yu Xing felt the transformation of time and space, and the next moment, it was no longer completely dark in front of him, and he could finally see a vague shadow.

He glanced down and saw a large mass of something baring its teeth and claws directly below.

“……”

Like a big bush of roses?

If you come down from the ladder, the rose is in a position where you can look at it as soon as you turn around, but if you fall down from the middle, the rose becomes a "mat...... Cushions full of spikes.

Yu Xing weighed it and didn't want to be pierced into a hedgehog.

He adjusted his position as best he could in the air, protected the watering can, and grazed the flowers and smashed to the ground.

One shoulder hit the ground without any cushion, and the ground was softer than the tile, and a natural smell was introduced into Yu Xing's nose.

This impact force was far less than the distance of the fall, and it was only a pain when it hit the ground, and it didn't even allow Yu Xing to use his ability to recover himself.

He scrambled to his feet, squinting and looking around.

The dim corridor stretched as far as the eye could see, and the half-hard earth beneath the feet, and countless fiery bouquets were hidden in the darkness at this time, as if they were covered with a dark and unknown coat, from strong and noble to silent and hideous.

The power of the curse raged in his body, and Yu Xing's face turned paler than usual, and then he habitually covered his mouth with his hand and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"The entrance is different, my whereabouts should be different from that of a gambler......" Wiped his hand casually on his clothes, Yu Xing muttered, and felt out of his pocket...... Lighter.

This was "borrowed" by him on the housekeeper while he was not paying attention.

It was really handy, so easy that after he got the lighter, he didn't bother to report it to the housekeeper. After all, if he really asked for it, the butler should have given it to him.

"But not necessarily, after all, the space is compressed, and maybe every passage is connected to this place." He lit the lighter, and with the crisp sound of metal from the delicate lid of the lighter, a faint flame ignited, illuminating a small area.

Yu Xing shone the firelight on the rose bush beside him, and raised his eyebrows.

He couldn't see it clearly just now, he could only guess by the outline that it was a large cluster of roses, and now that there was a light source, he saw that this bush of roses fell crookedly, the petals fell to the ground, and the leaves also fell off one after another, and a trace of blood was spread on the ground together.

Obviously, this place was smashed not long ago.

Yu Xing had already imagined the scene where Zeng Lai landed directly on the spikes...... With a watering can in one hand and a flashlight in the other, he could only cover his eyes in his heart and sigh.

This can barely be regarded as good news.

Zeng Lai and him, after the whereabouts, all came here, in this way, he didn't have to play the maze anymore, as long as he followed this road to catch up with people.

There is no need to even worry about the direction, because only one side of this narrow tunnel is open, and the other side is firmly sealed by thorns.

Yu Xing's expression moved, and he waited for another minute, but he didn't wait for Huai He's desolate figure, and the cold aura had already flowed down his torso into his limbs. He didn't want to waste his time, so he turned around in silence and walked briskly along the passageway.

Yiqing floated out and looked around, because he didn't want to touch the roses, he floated very high, and the whole ghost almost flew above Yu Xing's head.

"It's even dirtier here, and there are a lot of people dying when it watered such a large area." After a few minutes, Yiqing finally spoke.

Yu Xing didn't bother to look up at him, only used a lighter to illuminate, and occasionally felt a cyan shadow dangling on his head: "Yes, there should be a lot of deaths." ”

Yiqing pondered for a while: "Do you know, where do the roses come from here?" ”

As he was talking, the fan he was hanging on his waist suddenly fell and smashed on Yu Xing's head, making a muffled sound, and fell to the ground again.

Yu Xing: "......"

Yiqing: "Oops, the things on my body have fallen to the ground, it's time to change the fan." ”

Yu Xing: "......"

He couldn't help it, and glanced at Yiqing with a strange look, only to see Yiqing's dark blue eyes when he floated down to pick up the fan, and glanced at him as if he was nothing, and then immediately moved away.

Yu Xing retracted his gaze thoughtfully.

Is it a reminder that can't be said directly? Because the system limits the limit of helping him, so you can't say it directly?

After talking to Zeng Lai, Yu Xing actually didn't delay for long, after a process, presumably if Zeng Lai was more cautious, he must not have gone too far. As long as he is faster, it won't be long before he can catch up.

The rose was very close to each other, and even though Yu Xing was careful, he still had some wounds, and although he recovered quickly, the little blood that oozed from the wounds was all absorbed by the rose. Thinking of the process at the check-in, Yu Xing looked around with interest, waiting for his "sins" to be activated by these roses.

In the picture that the hysteria saw, the reason why an unnecessary door appeared in front of Zeng Lai, and he met the [Weeper] behind the door, should be the reason why the blood was absorbed by the rose.

However, since these roses are not as good as the pot carefully held by the nun, or rather, the pot is the flower that grew from the seeds given by the great wizard in the first place, and the roses that grow in the dirt may only be derivatives, and the effect is naturally greatly reduced.

The original Rose can spawn ghosts based on each person's sins, while the tokens can only create obstacles that are easy to break.

But where did these derived roses come from?

If he could find something to find him, he might be able to detect it, but unfortunately, his body was imprisoned by the cold aura, and there was some stagnation between his legs.

However, although Yu Xing thought so, and was a little expecting that these roses would cause him some interesting trouble, until he saw a familiar back in the distance, the roses did not come to look for trouble.

The back is Zeng Lai.

When Yu Xing saw Zeng Lai, Yiqing turned into green smoke and retracted into the [Shooting Blue Dream], and the next moment, Zeng Lai also turned his head as if he had a feeling, and suddenly, Yu Xing's hand holding the lighter stiffened for a moment.

His brow furrowed slightly, and he didn't speak directly for a while.

"Luck?!" Zeng Lai stood in the dark tunnel, his whole person almost merging with the roses around him.

There was some surprise and a little hesitation in his voice, forming a small echo in the space.

"It's me." Hearing Zeng Lai's voice, Yu Xing paused for two seconds and shook the lighter so that the other party could better see his location, "I'm looking for you." ”

"Awesome, brother, how did you get down?" As soon as Zeng Lai saw that someone was looking for him, he did not continue to walk, but felt to the bright place.

The footsteps were heard from Suosuo, and several bouquets were crooked along the way, and Zeng Lai finally came to a position of one or two meters in front of Yu Xing.

The light shone on his face, allowing Yu Xing to take in his appearance.

Roses, roses, roses.

Zenglai was covered with roses.

The dense root system sticks out from the small cut wound, and the thin green rhizome becomes harder and harder the higher it goes, and the top bears small green flower buds.

Some of the buds are already in a half-open state.

Spikes grow on the rhizomes, a wheat color that is more blood-clotting than black, the same color as Zenglai's skin.

But his young face was full of the same cheerful expression as before, as if he was unaware of his situation, and he was happy with the arrival of his teammates.

Zeng Lai leaned a little closer, raised his hand and patted Yu Xing's shoulder, which was also in line with his habit: "Strange, aren't you injured?" So awesome? ”

With his movements, the roses that grew on his arms swayed.

Yu Xing felt that the blood in his body was slowly becoming cold, his face was ugly, he stared at Zeng Lai, and his fingers moved unconsciously.

"Eh, since you're down, tell me what's going on up there?" "I guess you can't come down to me without knowing anything, you-ah!! ”

In the middle of his sentence, he suddenly let out a scream and looked at his chest with wide eyes.

There, a rose was violently pulled out by Yu Xing and uprooted.

He saw that Yu Xing's pale fingers, which looked like works of art, were pierced with blood, and a large amount of blood flowed from his body, where the rhizome was connected to the flesh and blood, as if the sharp pain of his limbs being forcibly torn off made him lose the ability to speak all of a sudden, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

After a two-second delay, Zeng Lai said angrily: "You...... Hiss...... What are you doing! It hurts! ”

He jerked Yu Xing back, but didn't push.

"Pain? Do you feel pain? Yu Xing's eyes were unprecedentedly cold, and despite Zeng Lai's screams, he pulled out the rose completely, and the warm blood poured on his hand.
