When I hid, I realized that what I had done had exposed my mind, although I didn't believe what the man said at all, but in the end I still said, this is obviously believing in the true rules of this death game, I hid here for a long time and refused to go out, Ma Ming seemed to be very familiar with this place, and walked directly in front of me.

I kept my head down, listening to the familiar footsteps, but when I looked up, I saw a completely unfamiliar Ma Ming, his eyes made me feel very strange, at this time he stretched out his hand to help me up, but I didn't stretch out my hand, but stood up by myself, looked at him and then turned to walk, but I thought that it would be easier to attack behind me, so I quickly turned back to look at him.

Just as I turned around, I did see the movement of his hand, as if he was really planning to do it to me, I was stunned for a moment and looked at him casually and asked, "What were you doing just now?" ”

He put his hands behind his back, looking a little flustered: "No, I didn't do anything." ”

I sighed and continued to walk, but this time I kept walking at the same pace as him, just walking beside him, now it's impossible to do it, I kept staring into his eyes and asked casually: "Eh, what are the real rules of this game, I always feel that the game can't end after we go up, I just felt that something was wrong here, and the man didn't talk about the real rules, have you really played such a game?" ”

Ma Ming nodded: "I've played, but the nature is a little different, but the rules of the game here are definitely like this, we just need to reach the top, after all, there is a hostage in addition to us, this is like the chips in the game, if we win, we can get chips, but if we lose, it's different, we will lose the chips, and we will also lose the qualification for the game, as for how to lose this qualification, of course, it is to lose our lives." ”

Seeing what he said, I didn't know how to refute it, so I could only stubbornly agree, but the thoughts in my heart became stronger and stronger, especially when we walked in this labyrinth, he walked handy, at first I would get lost when I walked here, but he led me to the staircase, I stopped and stared at him: "Why are you so familiar with this place, have you been here before?" ”

Ma Ming looked a little flustered, he looked around and said to me: "This maze is actually quite ordinary, that's because you have never been in contact with it, if you have a certain understanding of the maze, you can easily walk through, I take you, you can also walk a little better, at first I was looking for you, I kept calling you, but you didn't answer me at all, what are you doing?" ”

He suddenly pointed the finger at me, and I felt that it was even more problematic, at this time, it was like two villains fighting, one told me not to trust Ma Ming, he was just trying to kill me and win, and the other told me that Ma Ming has always been very good to me, as can be seen from the previous cooperation, so you must not listen to strangers, that person is very cunning, there are definitely ghosts, you have to be careful.

These two ideas are now evenly matched, and I don't know how to choose, and when I came back to my senses, Ma Ming patted me on the shoulder: "Why do you think you are weird, since I came to look for you, it seems like a different person, did you see something?" ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at me with his peripheral vision, although he showed that he didn't care, in fact, the action was already obvious, I pointed to the room behind me: "I don't know where I came from, and this maze is too complicated for me, so I just found a room and stayed for a while, I knew that you would definitely come out to find me, so I kept waiting, I thought it was an enemy when you came just now, and I almost didn't scare me to death." ”

That's how I usually behave, so he doesn't sound like he has any doubts, but I did lie, and this is the first time I've told such a lie to Ma Ming.

He did believe me and began to speak his own words, but I didn't listen to a word, because what the mysterious man had said to me before completely disturbed my mind, and I deliberately slowed down to see if he had a knife behind him, and if so, the evidence was conclusive.

After a few minutes my pace began to slow down, and he walked in front of him naturally, and I kept following him to get close to him, and by the way pulled out the knife behind him, but he was very careful every time I approached, as if he knew something, and I tried many times to no avail, and now I came to the top of the staircase, and I pulled out what he was hiding directly from behind his back as he went up the stairs.

When I pulled it out, I realized that it was indeed a knife, just like what was shown in the surveillance video, could he really be planning to harm me?

I stared at him with the knife in my hand: "What is this, why do you carry this knife behind your back, I remember that we all said it when we first came, I was holding a weapon, and you were holding those rune paper or something, why did you also hold this thing?" ”

Ma Ming stretched out his hand and wanted to snatch the knife I was holding, I put it directly in my pocket and grabbed his arm: "Why don't you answer what I said, it seems that this knife has other uses, I remember that you obviously brought a peachwood sword, you must know that this ordinary knife is useless to a Maoshan Taoist like you, what do you want to do?" ”

My tone also began to become serious, his eyes began to dodge, and his speech was also fragmented: "It's nothing, I just think it's just a matter of holding this thing for self-defense, we don't know what kind of person we will meet next, in case of danger, I can also defend myself by holding it, and don't you also hold it, why can't I take it?" ”

This excuse seemed a little stiff, and his expression was not at all like his usual appearance, and my tone was a little cold: "I see that you are not here to prevent others at all, but to protect me, just now, you have been sneaking behind me to do something, nothing more than to suddenly attack me with a knife, do you really think I don't know anything, your small movements are too obvious, as long as you are not blind, you can see it." ”

This is probably the first time I have said such a thing to Ma Ming, he was stunned for a moment before he slowly spoke: "What do you mean by this, what do you mean that I am guarding against you, we have been working together for so long, you are suspicious of me now, right, just because of the knife I am holding in my hand, yes, then you can throw away this knife now, you see what my reaction is, it's already this time, you still want to quarrel with me, right, do you think our life is long?" ”

The tone of his voice did not change, as if he blamed all the mistakes on my head, I snorted coldly and directly expressed my displeasure: "You don't seem to understand the situation now, this thing was brought by yourself, and you were sneaky from the beginning, and from the beginning you had to ask me to follow you to do things, but this time things are completely different, from the beginning I can't figure out what you're doing, especially when you shake your face with these people, what does it mean?" ”

Ma Ming looked a little surprised, I didn't expect that I had been caring about this matter, he explained to me: "I have a reason for this, this private hospital can be said to be notoriously difficult to mess with, what should not be done and what should be done, and the person who asked me to come over to exorcise ghosts is not any one in their hospital, but the director of this hospital, but this director has no real identity, has been forgotten, is a character who has been threatened, but because of the face of the president, these people are not easy to refuse." ”

I seemed to suddenly understand what he was saying.

He continued: "That's why I will talk to them in such a tone, in order to gain the upper hand and give them a sense of crisis, otherwise they will definitely make things difficult everywhere, and they didn't take us seriously at all at the beginning, before this several Taoist priests came, and finally took the money and left, I can't suffer this loss, so the attitude has been so tough, and they don't want to lose their temper with us, knowing that we are not fuel-efficient lamps, do you understand now?" ”

Seeing that he explained to me so carefully, I nodded: "I understand, but things are different now than then, what are you trying to do with this knife, don't think I don't know what you did in the surveillance video, you are very familiar with this place, it is definitely not the first time to come here, and the rules of the game you said are not right at all, it is now that you don't have to lie to me, just tell the truth." ”

Ma Ming looked at me in surprise: "You have been lying to me all along, have you, is our brotherhood so fragile until now, since you have seen it in the room, why don't you ask me directly, I am still curious why you see me with such eyes, I am holding this knife to protect you, no one says whether it is a ghost or a real person here, what if something happens to us?" ”

As if he was deliberately changing the subject, I pulled out the knife and sneered: "You don't have to be so deliberate, some things are done, for example, if you find this knife in a specific place, we can only take the weapon in that room once, so we don't have any qualifications to take it again, but you are different, what kind of prejudice do you have against me, and you choose to kill me here?" ”

At this time, I took out the knife in my hand and handed it directly into Ma Ming's hand, looking at him.
