The warmth on his hands was in stark contrast to the coldness in his body, but Yu Xing's nerves were even more touched at this moment, his own current physical condition was destined for him not to delay time, but the situation in front of him was very tricky.

The anger in Zeng Lai's eyes was very real, as if Yu Xing really "betrayed the trust" and broke off a part of his body.

But whether it is words and deeds or the heart that is still functioning, they all tell Yu Xing that Zeng Lai is still a human being, and he has not completely become something weird.

Things haven't gotten out of hand yet.

He raised the rose that had lost its nutrients in front of Zeng Lai, raised his voice, and hid some deliberately suppressed disbelief in his composure: "Take a closer look at what this is!?" Can't you see what you look like now! ”

Zeng Lai was so pained that he lost his voice, and his eyes were dazed for a moment.

"What...... What does it look like? ”

Isn't this the rose that grows on him? What else could it look like?

Why did Yuki hurt him? Obviously, we worked well together before!

Yu Xing saw his eyes clearly, his long narrow eyes narrowed uncomfortably, I don't know if he didn't want to look directly at Zeng Lai, who was covered in roses, which was really a little dazzling, or didn't want to see Zeng Lai's stupid look.

But in the end, he still chose to look directly at Zeng Lai, threw the bloody rose in his hand to the dirt on the side like garbage, pulled Zeng Lai's collar with his free hand, and said in a deep tone: "Do you think it's normal for humans to have roses?" ”

"What ......" Zeng Lai frowned deeply, as if he couldn't understand Yu Xing's words.

"Sober up - forget it, do you still have the concept of ghosts in your head now?" Yu Xing felt that his veins were vibrating with the chaotic emotions of the moment he had just now, and the cold aura was rampaging through it, as if he was racing in violation of the rules in his body.

He trembled all over at this moment, he could barely hold Zeng Lai, blood flowed from his nose and the corners of his mouth, Yu Xing sighed deeply, withdrew his hand and took a step back, and wiped it indiscriminately.

The pain peaked, and he calmed down instead.

Strange, shouldn't have reacted so much.

Is it the unpleasant smell in the air here that magnifies the faint emotions in my heart...... Yu Xing closed his eyes.

"Ghosts? Of course I do...... What do you want to say? Zeng Lai gritted his teeth.

Yu Xing tried to calm down the cold breath, and he held a rose that grew on Zeng Lai's arm as if threatening: "Now every word I say, please understand it carefully." ”

"You're assimilated, and these roses don't grow on you before you enter this tunnel."

"You can understand that there is some kind of malicious force that is transforming your body and affecting your brain, making you about to become a fool who turns into a ghost without realizing it."

Zeng Lai was stunned, although he was scolded for being a fool, but his anger went down a lot, after all, he was a deducer with excellent thinking ability, and all kinds of possibilities flashed in his mind, and he began to carefully consider Yu Xing's words.

Is it? I didn't have roses on me?

It seems that this is the case, and no one else has it.

Zeng Lai's feeling now is like your friend suddenly looking at you and telling you with puzzlement, how can you have a nose? Humans don't have noses.

And when you look to both sides, they really don't have noses.

After a few seconds, his pupils narrowed, and he couldn't help but look at the unopened rose stems scattered all over his body.

"Like...... Is that so? ”

After a few more seconds, Zeng Lai covered his head, confusion in his eyes.

"Something seems to be wrong, and I suddenly have a weird feeling......"

Sensing that something was wrong, something seemed to break in his mind, and some isolated concept came back to his mind.

Twenty seconds later, Zeng Lai's face finally turned frightened: "Fuck, how can these things grow on me!?" ”

Very good, now his face looks even worse than Yu Xing.

Yu Xing breathed a sigh of relief - Zeng Lai's cognition had not been completely distorted, and he still remembered his identity as a deducer, and he could still be corrected.

Cognitive tampering, Yu Xing doesn't remember if he has experienced it, but he can understand that feeling.

To use an inappropriate analogy, it's like a person who suddenly short-circuits his brain and turns on the air conditioner with a TV remote control, but it doesn't work. This person carefully observed the remote control on one side, and even re-pressed the battery, checked it, and knew what the two remote controls looked like, but he didn't feel that he had taken it wrong.

At this moment, this person's brain deeply recognized that the TV remote control in his hand was originally the remote control of the air conditioner.

The "truth" is in front of you, but it is covered by a layer of "falsehood", which affects people's cognition.

It wasn't until someone reminded him that he had taken the wrong remote control that he realized what he had just done and wondered about his actions.

Zeng Lai was like this at this time, and after Yu Xing spread his words in front of him and explained them clearly, he straightened out his chaotic thoughts one by one, and a thick fear emerged...... He didn't even realize what was happening to him!

It's terrible, it's scarier than the one who cries right in front of him!

"Remembered?" Yu Xing asked in a confirmed manner.

"I'm fucking uncle, I'm shit, I'm hiss-it hurts!" Zeng Lai not only remembered, but he also tried to pull out a rose, but as soon as he used his strength, he experienced the pain of peeling.

This person was dripping in a cold sweat, and his eyes looking at Yu Xing were full of the meaning of asking for help: "How can this be?" ”

It's not that he gave up thinking, but in the current situation, Xing Xing, who came to him, obviously knows more information.

Yu Xing calmed his breath and pointed to Zeng Lai's hand that had stopped due to the severe pain: "What does it feel?" ”

Zeng Lai said: "The feeling of forcibly removing a layer of skin and pulling a tendon from under the skin." ”

When Yu Xing heard this, the idea of helping the other party pull out the rhizomes of his whole body dissipated a little: "Then now, can you still remember, how did you become like this?" ”

"Well, my sacrifice to counteract the curse ability can't be used, and it seems like ...... after that I've been walking into the tunnel, my skin is a little itchy, especially from the wound, and I feel like something is growing. At first, I thought it was healing, so I didn't pay much attention to it, but it didn't take long for the roses to grow. But at that time, I didn't think there was anything wrong with roses, I thought they were a part of my body, and I grew more and more with them. ”

Zeng Lai tried very hard to recall, and was frightened by this experience again.

It's not that he hasn't heard of cognitive tampering, and he has even experienced the deduction game of tampered memories, but this time it's different, this time he doesn't have the slightest sense of relevance, and he is completely natural and quietly assimilated.

If he hadn't been reminded of him, he would have become an inhuman thing just by maintaining his "ability to think".

- He doesn't know exactly what it will become, but it can't be a good thing.

"Didn't you have any other opportunities along the way...... In other words, it is likely that after staying in the tunnel for a long time, the wound cut by the rose will be abnormal. Time is the most likely answer, Yu Xing looked at himself again, the reason why he didn't feel anything at all was because his wounds had been completely healed, and it was not time yet?

yes, eighty percent of them.

Zeng Lai also thought of it, and at the same time, he was a little annoyed by his carelessness.

It's too doggy.

It's a doggy deduction.

There is a death point that is so easy to hit.

Normally, deduction rarely has a certain death bridge, because this is not consistent with the purpose of deduction, the deduction system does not want the deduction to die, it wants the truth.

Of course, the Rose Tunnel is not mortal, as long as the person who enters it gets out within a certain amount of time.

Now it seems that this critical point should be about fifty minutes, and Zeng Lai wasted half an hour in front of that door, so it was overtime.

It's easy to explain, and Alice has set up such a trap to prevent others from coming in—it makes sense.

After calming down, Zeng Lai breathed a sigh of relief again. Fortunately, he has now found out and regained the initiative.

He took out the unpretentious-looking sacrificial scissors in the personality mask, his heart was horizontal, his eyes were closed, and he clicked on the roses on his body.

"Ahh

The flesh-colored spikes on the rose contracted in unison, and Zeng Lai's cry of pain followed, but fortunately, the next moment, a black mist surged from the place where it was cut off, and this black mist swallowed up the remaining flower stems like a corrosive agent, and in the process, Zeng Lai was relieved.

It's good to be able to solve it.

Semi-abstract things such as "ghosts" and "curses" that are cut off by this dagger will cut off contact with the wielder and be destroyed more easily.

Seeing that the dagger was effective, Zeng Lai kept cutting off all the rose rhizomes all over his body, except for the moment when he cut it would be very painful, and the follow-up was much easier.

Yu Xing watched him cut from the sidelines, and at the same time had a new understanding of the mortality rate deduced.

Even the star deducer will hang up without any chance if he is not careful, although it is because they are taking the path of hiding the plot, the difficulty will naturally increase a little, but it is enough to explain the problem.

If that's the case......

Yu Xing's expression was a little darker.

It doesn't happen that a teammate almost dies very often, right?

Then he couldn't stand it.

People who don't know him well probably would never have thought that Yu Xing, the villain who is committed to "portraying himself more and more black", can't stand watching his acquaintances die in front of him.

Strangers don't matter, but as long as they are recognized or appreciated by him, he will never allow them to have an accident where he can save them.

It's like sitting on a jumping machine with Zhao Yijiu, and when he wanted to get the clue to the top of the sharp stabbing strip, he didn't let Zhao Yijiu risk the concept at all, and directly let himself be pierced through the palm.

Yu Xing is the kind of person who would rather be mortally wounded himself than have his arm broken by someone he recognizes, although he can't see it at all.

Even Zhao Yijiu, who has realized that Yu Xing intends not to let others trust and rely on him, I am afraid that he will not think about it in this regard, after all, such a "kind and decent" behavior does not match Yu Xing's face that often shouts "I am not serious".

I guess the longer I live, the more I cherish the people I can still get along with.

Yu Xing has always been casual, and only has scruples about expressing kindness.

Because all well-intentioned emotions may be seized by someone with a heart as a handle, after all, there is a whole single prism opposite him that is eyeing under the manipulation of the servant, not to mention, he occasionally worries that he is out of control, and people close to him can't avoid it.

So even if he is generally worried about others and good for others, he will not show it on the outside, and in the eyes of others, he is completely like a person who does not recognize his six relatives, has no heart and is not close to people.

Yu Xing admires Zeng Lai very much, otherwise, he could have ignored Zeng Lai at first, you must know that at the beginning, he didn't know that Zeng Lai's position was the core area of the end of the deduction, and his choice was to save Zeng Lai first, and then find the plot.

“…… It seems that I have to work harder to protect my teammates in the future, otherwise I will be injured in a while, and I will not be excited to death. "Others don't know Yu Xing, of course he himself doesn't know what virtue he has, just now, the moment Zeng Lai turned his head from a distance, he thought Zeng Lai was dead.

My heart cooled a little.

Although this time, it was indeed sudden, Zeng Lai, who was fine not long ago, had become this strange appearance when he met again, coupled with the stimulation of the smell of roses and the irritability caused by the cold breath, Yu Xingcai did not control himself and let his emotions leak out a little, but Zeng Lai, who was not close, had an accident that could cause his emotional fluctuations, not to mention that in case it was Qu Zhiqing, Zhu Yan, or Zhao Yijiu.

Thinking of this, Yu Xing was very unhappy: "Tsk, the trouble, it's still the trouble I found for myself." ”

The character that he has developed cannot be scolded.

"What did you say?" Zeng Lai finished disposing of the roses on his body, and he seemed to hear a whisper in his ears, but unfortunately the voice was too small, and his brain was buzzing with pain now, and he couldn't hear it clearly at all.

"It's fine. How are you doing now? ”

"Reluctantly......" Zeng Lai really couldn't say the word "okay", it was too unconscionable.

He thought that he was almost gone, and couldn't help but complain: "The roses in this tunnel are simply too evil, they will grow flowers if they are scratched, and you see, they are dense, it is impossible to dodge them all, and they must be injured in a few ......places."

At this point he paused, for he looked at Yu Xing for a moment and found that the man was not injured.

Okay, when he didn't say it.

Yu Xing agreed with his words, he actually walked all the way, even if he was very careful, he was cut, but he recovered quickly, and the roses here were too dense.

So...... Why are there so many roses here?

Several fragments flashed in Yu Xing's mind, and the clearest one was the moment when Yiqing's fan smashed on his head.

Yiqing's voice began to echo in his mind.

"It's even dirtier here, and there are a lot of people dying when it watered such a large area."

"Do you know where the roses come from?"

"Oops, something on my body fell to the ground."

I see.

Yu Xing looked at Zeng Lai and had the answer in his heart.

Where does the rose come from...... It's a living person.

When a living person is cut by a rose and fails to leave within the time limit, the same thing happens to Zenglai.

The whole body is covered with flower stems.

And then die.

After death, the body decays in the soil, and the flowers that grow out of the body take root in the soil, and on the surface, it looks as if it was planted in the soil.

Actually, to the left and right of them, under all the rose bushes...... There was a corpse that had long since decomposed into nutrients.

Tsk, it's no wonder that the floral scent is mixed with the bad smell of rot.
