Chapter 178: Escape Room (7)

How so?!

I was completely confused, and tried again and again, but it still didn't work, this is the end, I have searched for so many keys, and none of them are really right.

I seem to understand, understand why A is not responding, because there is no right key here, so it does not act.

What the hell is going on?

Doesn't it mean that you can touch it just by touching it? It's all about groping, so why can't it be here?

I don't feel tired at all, my mind is full of incredible, and I prefer guessing puzzles to carpet searches.

There can be no puzzle, Achuan has said it a long time ago, I forcibly suppressed this thought and began to think about a more reasonable possibility, could it really be that I didn't insert the right key in the confusion.

The keys are all in the left trouser pocket, a large handful, I took them out one by one, tried again and again, I still fell into despair, is it really not, not even can be inserted and unscrewed, they can't get into the interlocking holes.

I was a little angry, but I didn't want to give up, so I groped around the wall, and the water was full of smooth walls, and there was no place to hide.

I went back to the little door, discouraged, I thought that the hard work would pay off, only to find that it was all in vain, and there was nothing more depressing than this ending.

Could it be that they made a mistake and the real key is not here at all? This is impossible, the Mo family is so rigorous, it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake, the problem must be me.

Think about the fact that I was in a fog for a long time when I was fumbling for the key, maybe it was just because I didn't explore it completely, and I slipped through the net.

This thought is even more desperate, I don't know where to slip out, I can only start from the beginning, I am very irritated when I think about it, it has already put me in a half-dead state, it is better to die just again.

The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, thinking that Ah Qing and they must be able to see it, I raised my hand and wanted to give them a middle finger, but I didn't expect that as soon as my hand was halfway raised, it slammed into a dangling thing, making a "bang" in the dark.

"......"

I couldn't help but scream, I was completely defenseless, it hurt too much this time, I rubbed my hands, I couldn't help but be surprised, I fell directly into this room, I didn't think about the possibility of something overhead, because subconsciously, the roof is very high.

It was as if I had discovered a new continent, and when I raised my hand, I touched something above my head, which was only a dozen centimeters above my head at most, because of the darkness and the first impression, I didn't even notice it.

I've had countless chances to find out, and I can touch it with just a slight hand, but I've been here for so long that I haven't even raised my hand once, and if I hadn't tried to protest, I might not have found out until I died.

My heart was full of shock and banter, this thing should be wooden, large, I touched it and walked towards the center of the room, and found that it was almost a meter wide.

It was so long that it almost touched the left and right walls, which was all arranged, and they knew that I couldn't see anything and would definitely fall straight into the water, so the other side was empty, which was all for the sake of confusion and made me think that the roof was high.

I was so stupid, I chose the wrong direction from the beginning, no matter how hard I tried, I would only get farther and farther away from the finish line, and no one ever told me that the key was hidden under the water, how could I take it for granted that it was in the mud.

I was destined to fail this exam, I was in such a hurry that I didn't think it through at all, and I forgot that I should try it first.

I had tried so much and it was all empty words, and if Ah Chuan had seen it, he would have laughed at me, and I touched the edge of the plank, it was like a crudely made box without a lid, and the edge was nailed with wooden strips, and I shook it, and I clearly heard the sound of metal hitting it.

It was the key, and I reached into my hand and felt a large piece of cold metal, full of keys, many, many, and many, and I did need to try again and again, but not in the mud.

I slowly calmed down, and the feeling of tiredness suddenly hit me, as if I had suddenly lost support when I reached the finish line, my whole body was sore, I couldn't even stand, and my body was crooked and almost fell into the water.

I can't try again and again, I'm too irritable now, I just want to destroy everything, and this kind of delicate work is no longer suitable for me now.

I felt really ridiculous, they knew that I was tired, so they specially prepared a hammock for me to rest, I didn't find it myself, and now I hate others, I know that I hate myself, I hate myself for not groping well, obviously in the front room will stick to the wall and touch it up and down, so I can't remember anything here.

I put my arms on the wooden frame and grabbed it with all my strength, my lower body was cold and numb, and I could no longer stand in the water.

The wooden frame is not high, but I will definitely not be able to climb in the past, even if I am tired and groggy now, I can rely on the strength of my arms to rub it up little by little, the exercise does have an effect, although I am difficult to detect, but my physical fitness has really improved unconsciously.

There are hard metal keys under me, I don't feel so uncomfortable, I finally left the water, this feeling can't be better, I touched a hand, there are not many keys under me, most of them are concentrated in the middle, there are almost none on both sides, it is estimated that there are only a few hundred.

Even if it's a few thousand, it's better than groping in the mud, I lay on my back on the wooden frame and didn't even bother to turn over, I really couldn't hold it, my head was still dizzy, I touched my forehead, it seemed to be a little hot, maybe the dirt in the sewage entered the body.

My hand was swollen, about the size of one and a half before it, and when I pressed it hard, it seemed to spurt pus, and it was so slippery and greasy that I couldn't and didn't have the strength to clean it up.

My consciousness was getting more and more blurred, my coat was thrown in the previous room, my underwear was thrown underneath, I didn't feel cold when I was naked, but it was unbearably hot, I just wanted to go to bed quickly, and when I fell asleep, it was all gone.

I woke up from the cold, and it was as cold as ice under me, and I don't know how long I slept, but my head was still dizzy, but it wasn't hot when I touched it.

My hands hurt so much that I hardly dared to touch them, and they were swollen like a fan, so I sat up with my elbows propped up, and shook my head vigorously, and the feeling of dizziness was gradually leaving, and I was much more awake.

I remember that I had a fever, but now it has subsided, my body is not so hot, I seem to be healthy again, although I am still very tired, and the soreness in my muscles is also the feeling after normal exercise, not the pain caused by illness.

I smiled bitterly, I didn't expect that I was quite able to hold on, if it was before, I would probably die in my sleep, I don't know if this feeling is good or bad.

The key must be hidden here, I gave another order to A, it still didn't move, I was depressed, after all, I still didn't know its control mechanism, think about it, if it's really that simple, what else do I try.

The wooden frame was more than ten centimeters away from the small door, just enough for me to reach out again and again, I lay in the pile of keys, picked up a handful and tried it, and threw it into the water below if I couldn't insert it into the keyhole, there were too many keys, I couldn't keep them separate.

Again and again, I was lying on my stomach like this, but I was so tired that my arms were sore, and now I don't know when, maybe I fell asleep for a day or two, and they really didn't let me out, I had no hope for them, and I really had to rely on myself at the critical moment.

One handful after another, I even hated myself for this lazy look, but I really didn't want to get up, and I began to imagine what it would be like behind that little door.

The door was so small that I could only squeeze in, I wondered if it would get bigger, and I had a deep fear of dark and narrow spaces, as if all the monsters in horror stories would force the protagonist into a small space and let him be eaten without escape, and the despair would suffocate at the thought of it.

With almost half of the keys left, I retracted my hand and lay on the wooden frame looking at the darkness above my head, the swelling in my hand seemed to subside a little, the numbness was fading, and the pain was getting more pronounced.

I touched it gently, as if touching the side of a book, the thin flesh rolled up like fish scales, hard and stiff, I couldn't help but think of the village chief's hand, the skin that has been chapped from farm work all year round, and the rough touch is nothing more than this.

The filth on my hands had dried up, mixed with grease and turned into a hard shell, I raised my hand to wipe the wall, and the palm of my hand fell down like molting, the fishy smell was still obvious, I couldn't tell whether it was on my face or on my hands.

I sat up and pinched my right leg, a dull pain was coming from my ankle, I thought I would be able to walk normally in another month, but I was afraid that this time I would have to sit in a wheelchair for two months.

My sense of smell was really no longer sensitive, I felt like I had just come out of a dung pit, and my whole body was stinking so bad that I couldn't stun a homeless man who hadn't bathed for years, and I hated it so much that I couldn't peel off a layer of skin.

I continued to test the key, again and again, like a robot, my hand hurt more and more, the air seemed to stretch the wound open, and the tender flesh inside was exposed, and the pain was trembling.

I could barely hold the key, almost slipped down several times, tried dozens more, and finally heard the sound of the door opening for the first time in a long time.

That crisp "click" was like a candle lighting the night, and I was refreshed and finally opened, God knows how much pain and despair I went through.

My tense body suddenly relaxed, let the key be inserted on it, and fell down with a "bang", I was really tired, now there is a rare place to rest, I want to sleep again, the exam is no longer important, my performance has long been terrible, no matter how bad it is.
