Chapter 248: "The Cell Head"
Xu Lang slowly turned around and said to Song Zhuoming: "I have a conjecture now, but the consequences may be serious or insignificant, but I need you to help me with this, this matter is about all the executors!" ”
Looking at Xu Lang's serious face, reading the meaning of these words, Song Zhuoming followed his gaze and looked at the hole in the south wall, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.
Xu Lang leaned over slightly and gave up his position, and the open hole was no different from other rooms.
This problem, which has been entangled with Xu Lang for a long time, finally has a clear opportunity until the arrival of Song Zhuoming.
According to Song Zhuoming, there is an independent space between the two adjacent rooms, which is not large, but if there is really an executor downstream of Xu Lang, even if the hole on his side is blocked, the water flow should never be so huge and flooded.
The extra water will pour into the separate space, but this is obviously not the case now!
Xu Lang already had a faint speculation in his heart, and this possibility was extremely high, but he hadn't been able to determine why this was the case?
Song Zhuoming slowly came to the entrance of the cave on the south wall, first lay on the ground and looked inside, unexpectedly, it was dark inside, and any light source entering here would be ruthlessly devoured.
He also wanted to be sure in his heart whether the game task of Room 7 really only had seven rooms!
I saw that he no longer hesitated, first burrowed his head into it thoroughly, and as he looked into it, he still couldn't see anything, just plain darkness.
As if he had expected this, he began to lean sideways, trying to put his arm in to check it, but it seemed that the space inside was much smaller than he had imagined.
Song Zhuoming had to drill his head out first, but instead reached in with his arm and groped around.
At this touch, he immediately deduced in his mind the environment inside, which was a structure similar to the north wall in the room he was in, but it was even more cramped!
There was only an open space the size of an adult man's palm, and in the center there was a pipe that flowed slowly downstream, but it was a few turns smaller than the pipe in his room.
It seems that even if Xu Lang doesn't talk about taking the wreckage away, he can't wash it down the pipe at all.
Song Zhuoming slowly got up, stood in place and thought about it, then took out a bottle of candy from his pocket, opened the jar and took out a small piece from it, and threw it into the pipe according to the memory just now.
The piece of candy kept sliding down the pipe, and at the same time, Song Zhuoming stuck his head in it, constantly listening to the sound of the hard candy colliding with the pipe, but it didn't take long for the sound to disappear.
I don't know if the pipe is too short and has come to an end, or if it's still sliding along the inertia because it's too long.
But until now, he could be completely sure that Xu Lang was at the bottom of all the executors' rooms!
In other words, room seven is the last room!
Song Zhuoming's face was a little ugly, and he remembered what Xu Lang had said before, Xu Lang had sent a note downstream to test whether he was the last room.
But now it has been determined that Xu Lang is indeed the last room, so what kind of things exist there at the end of the downstream pipeline? Can you do what Xu Lang asks?
Looking at Song Zhuoming's ugly face, Xu Lang squinted his eyes slightly, things really went to the worst.
"The note was that I wanted people downstream to block the hole for an hour, and then the water level would change, so that I could deduce where it was.
And the people downstream do a very good job, completely blocking the hole, leaving no gaps, this kind of result is extremely difficult for the executor, or even impossible to do.
This made me a little suspicious, and now I can finally be sure that the executor has come to an end for me, and I am the last living person's room, so there is only one possibility of what is being held in the downstream room......"
Song Zhuoming met Xu Lang's eyes, and the two said two words in unison,
"Evil spirits!"
Song Zhuoming hesitated a little and whispered, "Who is the person who delivered the food outside the door?" ”
Xu Lang waved his hand, "I wasn't sure before you arrived, but now I can basically conclude that the person delivering the food outside the door and the person detained downstream are originally the same person, that is, the evil spirit!" ”
"How so?"
"Time! When I wrote the note, it was just after the first deceased, Yue Yinian, had just washed into my room, and in the time since then, I have not received any information, and I wondered why the person downstream received my message but did not immediately carry it out.
Now that I think about it, since he is an evil spirit, he should not have been in the room during that free time in between, and my note sticking to the minced meat stayed when I arrived in his room!
After the water erupted, the next day the evil spirit came to deliver food, and I was afraid that he would feel the abnormality in my room, and although he used his body to block the crack in the door, it was not impossible for the evil spirit to know the situation in my room.
Not long after he left, when I was at a loss, the downstream was no longer clogged, and this point in time was too much of a coincidence.
One appears, the other disappears, and it makes me have to connect them together! ”
Song Zhuoming chewed on a lot of information about Xu Lang, indeed! If you follow what Xu Lang said, then there is really only one situation that happens!
"So, what I don't understand is, why would he listen to your arrangement?"
Xu Lang smiled slightly when he heard this, and lit a cigarette, "You know the prison, among all the prisoners, there will be a cell leader, this person is also a criminal, but he suppresses the rest of the criminals with domineering or force.
It is precisely because of this that the prison guards do not need to supervise all the criminals, but control the cell bosses in a unified manner, giving them a certain amount of power to supervise the rest of the prisoners on their behalf. ”
Song Zhuoming frowned when he heard this, "You mean to say that this place seems to be a prison, and we are all criminals in prison cells. And the so-called room eight, this evil spirit is actually our cell boss, he delivers food for us, he can have the power to kill, but he is still a criminal, he must also be imprisoned! ”
Xu Lang took a long puff of cigarette, and was very pleased with Song Zhuoming's clear mind, and it was easy to deal with smart people.
"But how will this help us in completing our mission?"
"It's not clear yet, but I'm sure it's important to figure this out, maybe it's part of the way you want to live!"
After Xu Lang said this, he began to take Song Zhuoming to the corner of the two wreckage, pointed and said: "Now that the law of killing has been figured out, the evil spirit can only kill one person a day, and the time is the time to deliver the meal."
Through the entry of you and He Xiao, I can now be sure that it was Yue Yinian in Room 1 who died on the first day, and you were the replacement!
The next day it was the executor of Room No. 2 who died, whose name was not yet known, and was replaced by He Xiao;
Although it was only one person a day, we were trapped in a cell from which we could not escape, and we could only wait for death, and even now I can say that this mission is simply unsolvable until you enter the mission! ”
Song Zhuoming lowered his body, turning over the remains of the two deceased, and when he heard the word "no solution", he couldn't help but raise his head, "What does no solution mean?" ”
He had not been in the newspaper for a long time, and he had not had time to read all the mission materials.
Xu Lang took a deep breath of cigarette, "There is no way to live, all the executors have no choice but to wait for death and escape, that is a task that belongs to the unilateral slaughter of evil spirits......"
Speaking of which, Xu Lang's mood was not particularly high, and there were obviously some indescribable emotions that interfered.
Song Zhuoming realized his abnormality, hesitated for a moment and said, "Have you experienced no solution? ”
"Sort of."
Hearing the affirmative answer, Song Zhuoming's heart trembled, there is no solution to the task to survive? What kind of character is this Xu Lang, who can survive in that situation?
"Don't be afraid, I said it was an unsolvable task before you entered, but not now. You are free to come and go through the cave, and in fact from the moment you arrived, I knew that life would be in you, and that all the ideas and possibilities I had said could only be carried out by you! ”
Xu Lang squatted down, slapped his arm on Song Zhuoming's thin shoulder, and stared at him with straight eyes: "Can I trust you?" ”
Song Zhuoming was a little evasive by this glance, but it was fleeting, and he firmly met Xu Lang's gaze, "I want to live!" ”
"Good! Then I will do my best to help you on this mission, and we will live together! ”
Song Zhuoming nodded, and once again his gaze fell on the wreckage below him, becoming silent, no one knew what he was thinking.
Xu Lang looked at his back, his eyes flashed with a deep look, and then he returned to his expressionless appearance, as if nothing had happened.
And at this moment, Song Zhuoming suddenly moved the skeleton away, took out a skull from it, and began to stare at it carefully.
"Brother Xu?"
Xu Lang was attracted by this call, "What's wrong?" ”
Song Zhuoming handed over the skull in his hand, Xu Lang held it in the palm of his hand, this was the skull of the first deceased Yue Yinian, and at this time he pushed his glasses and took a closer look.
On the back of the skull, four words were carved crookedly. "Don't open the door!"
Xu Lang's eyes were a little cold, this was the clue he had ignored before, the clue of "door" was very likely in this mission, and until now, he couldn't figure out whether this was a dead end or a life path!
In the end, he set his eyes on Song Zhuoming's body, his brain was running rapidly, and an extremely bold idea came into being.
Xu Lang looked at Song Zhuoming beside him with a bright gaze, and said something in a low tone that made Song Zhuoming feel cold.
"Do you want to take a look, how do evil spirits kill people?"
