Kaleidoscope of Death

However, it appeared for but a moment, and soon disappeared once again before the three of them, leaving only a silent darkness inside the door.

Gu Longming swallowed his saliva and said, "What is this, what the hell is this thing?" This thing sure as hell ain't human, and no one has yellow eyes.

"I don't know." Lin Qiushi said, "I wasn't able to see too clearly." He looked at Ruan Nam Candle, but saw that Ruan Nam Candle's brows were furrowed.

Ruan Nam Candle said, "It's a humanoid creature with scales all over its body." He said, "The eyes were yellow..."

"Is it a mermaid?" Gloom felt like it might have been barely a consolation if it had been.

"It could be a mermaid." Ruan Nan Candle smiled at him, "Just the kind of mermaid whose head turns into a fish."

Gu Longming shuddered at the image of what Ruan Nan Candle said.

The door in front of them revealed a crack, but neither of them had the desire to explore further, instead choosing to leave. Before leaving, Ruan Nan Candle even closed the door in passing, he said, "In the absence of knowledge, it's better not to touch anything inside for now."

Next, the three of them grabbed the time to explore the rest of the ship and discovered that the ship was actually large enough to hold at least a few hundred people, and even had gun barrels hidden under the plywood, though they didn't see any ammunition on board.

While they were walking around the ship to gather information, there was a commotion on the deck, as if someone was in trouble.

When Lin Qiushi made it to the deck, he saw that the girl who had cried the most yesterday was actually in the ship's only lifeboat, with a man beside her, both holding oars in their hands, and plenty of fresh water and food by their side - apparently, they were trying to break away from the ship and row off on their own.

"Get back here, you're going to die!!!" The crowd that saw the two move made noisy noises, among them there was already a kindly old hand that was giving the two newcomers who were not afraid of death a hint, the old hand waved his arm at them and shouted, "You can't go anywhere else, you'll really die, come back-"

"Don't you dare try to fool me!" But the girl screamed, and she looked hatefully at the boat full of people, "I'm not going with you, you'll take me to a horrible place! I want to walk by myself!"

When she finished speaking, she thought the man would continue to advise her, but the atmosphere was strangely silent, everyone staring at the water below the lifeboat she was sitting in, but there was unspoken fear in their eyes.

"What's going on? What are you looking at?" The girl seemed to sense something as well, her throat moved and her expression stiffened as she slowly turned her head to look at the sea around her.

The sea was calm, yet the color seemed to have a problem, a deep blackness enveloped the water below her, as if something was... lurking around her.

"Ah..." the girl shuddered and looked to her companion, "Let's get out of here."

His companion's hand with the paddle shook, and with a frantic nod at the girl, they paddled together in an attempt to leave the vast expanse of water.

When the pulp in their hands made contact with the water, the water beneath the small boat sloshed out in thin waves. At this moment, however, the girl heard the sound of something swimming fast, and before she could react, a huge fishtail leapt out of the water and smashed heavily into the small boat she was in.

The small boat was directly smashed into pieces by the fishtail, and the two people who were still in the boat instantly fell into the water. And then, she also saw part of the face of the large fish in front of her.

It was a big fish that was hard to describe its appearance, with dense teeth as sharp as needles, a huge mouth that could swallow the boat whole in one bite, and a pale dark green color to its body. The fish in the end how big she couldn't see clearly, she only knew that she was not even enough to gag it.

Seeing the lifeboat being overturned just like that, everyone's breath was almost held.

But Lin Qiushi's reaction was the fastest, and the moment the boat capsized, he picked up the nearby lifebuoy and threw it towards the girl and her friend's location.

The girl who was tumbling in the water used her last strength to reach out and grab the lifebuoy, while Lin Qiushi quickly grabbed the rope on the lifebuoy and pulled it back, yelling, "Grabbed it-"

They were standing higher up, so they could see the full extent of this fish in the water. From the shadowed part, the fish appeared to be almost as big as the ship they were in, but it didn't seem to have any intention of attacking anyone, just giving a warning to the girl who was attempting to leave.

The others reacted by throwing a life preserver towards the other man, then lowered the rope ladder so that the two could climb up from the seawater.

The girl was shaking all over as she climbed the rope ladder, but at least she made it up, and once she was on the deck, her whole body went limp and she couldn't say anything.

"You've been told you can't leave." Lin Qiushi remembered that the person who spoke seemed to be named Song Yongning, a better-tempered veteran, and he said to the girl, "Hurry up and go change your clothes and get some rest."

"What the, what the hell is that?" The shivering girl thought of the huge fish, her voice weak, "It was lurking around the boat? Will it attack the ship?"

No one knew the answer, so they could only watch her in silence.

This silence made the girl more and more uneasy, but there was nothing she could do but wipe her tears and leave with her companion. This accident was at least a surprise, but it seemed that this was just a lesson from the door for newbies who didn't know the rules.

Lin Qiushi took another look towards the dark seawater and saw that the huge fish was also gone.

Seeing that everything had calmed down, the crowd standing on the deck gradually dispersed.

"Let's go too." Ruan Nan Candle said.

Lin Qiushi nodded.

This incident seemed to be an insignificant episode that didn't have much of an impact on the door.

At lunchtime, the food was still those disgustingly dead fish, and instead of eating fish, the three of them took some noodles mixed with Lao Ganma and ate them.

The others saw that they had actually brought Old Godmother with them, and they all cast envious looks.

One young man couldn't resist and shamelessly came over to ask Ruan Nan Candle for a spoonful, who looked at him and actually kindly gave him a spoonful.

"Thank you thank you." The man thanked, "My name is Shen Juexin, if there's anything I can help you with, just say so!" He didn't look too good, his skin was waxy, and he looked like he was simply seriously ill.

But Lin Qiushi remembered him and knew that he was the brother who had the worst seasickness, he had been lying in bed all day yesterday, and it was amazing that he was able to stand up now.

Gu Longming's eyes kept darting around the restaurant while he was eating, as if he had thought of something, and his expression was very serious.

When lunch was over, he said that he had a little idea.

It so happened that Lin Qiushi wanted to go to the bathroom, so he told them to talk for a while and came over later.

The two of them found a secluded corner in the hull corridor and talked quietly.

"Meng Meng." Gu Longming said, "Do you remember the Minotaur sacrifice mentioned in the clue?"

Ruan Nan Candle: "Remember, what's wrong?"

Gu Longming said, "In the mythology, it says that the sacrifice needed seven men and seven women, but don't we happen to have fourteen right now?" He paused for a moment and spoke in a very serious tone, "And I just counted the number of people in the restaurant and it happened to be seven men and seven women!"

Ruan Nan Candle heard Gu Longming's speculation, but was silent for a moment and said, "Seven men and seven women... plus me?"

Gu Longming was baffled, "Of course I have to add you."

Ruan Nan Candle leaned on the railing without uttering a word.

Gu Longming scratched his head: "Why don't you say anything?"

Ruan Nan Candle thought and said, "Come over here, I'll show you a big baby." She said and beckoned to Gu Longming.

Gu Longming was still in a fog, just leaning over, he saw that Ruan Nan Candle actually lifted her skirt.

"Fuck!!!" Gu Longming instantly blushed, and said, "What are you doing-wait..." he noticed some sort of wrong bump, and his eyes were a bit dull, "That What is it?"

Ruan Nan Candle revealed a brilliant smile and leaned in to Gu Longming's ear, no longer using a falsetto voice, her voice was low and full of magnetism, a voice that belonged to a man: "I'll tell you a secret, I'm actually not Yu Linlin's girlfriend, I'm his man."

Gu Longming: "......." his expression can no longer be described as if he was struck by lightning, he looked terrified, almost as if he was looking at Ruan Nan Candle with eyes that saw the end of the world.

"So it's not seven men and seven women." Ruan Nan Candle said, "Of course, we can't rule out a woman dressed as a man."

Gu Longming didn't say anything, he hadn't gotten over the shock.

Ruan Nan Candle patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "Brother, don't worry, take it easy, it's always acceptable."

Gu Longming was quiet for a while before he grudgingly came, "Then he still dislikes the high school girl I'm pretending to be so much, huh, dead man."

Ruan Nan Candle: "......." he looked at Gu Longming's size and thought about how this person dressed as a girl and thought that Chen Fei and Gu Longming might have an understanding.

Lin Qiushi didn't know what happened on Ruan Nan Candle's side, he came out after going to the toilet and saw Gu Longming's expression as if he had lost his soul and said strangely, "What's wrong? What's happened again?"

"Nothing." Ruan Nan Candle said, "Just told him a little bit of the truth."

Lin Qiushi: "....... "Nothing happened then what's with this ghostly expression of Gu Longming.

"Right, what did you want to say just now?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"It's fine." Gu Longming said, "It's fine now."

Lin Qiushi was simply baffled. He was going to ask about it in detail, but he heard the frightened screams coming from the restaurant on the second floor. With a glance at each other, the three of them hurried over and saw a man standing around like a headless fly inside the restaurant.

"What's going on?" Lin Qiushi asked.

"It's gone, it's gone, it's gone -" the man's eyes were full of fear, and he kept repeating the same phrase, "It's gone, it's clearly right next to the -"

"Calm down." Lin Qiushi advised, "What exactly happened, tell us carefully, maybe we can help!"

The man looked at Lin Qiushi and shuddered, "The house is gone..."

Ruan Nam Candle: "What do you mean?" He seemed to understand something and said, "Come on, let's go out and see!"

Ruan Nan Candle turned around sharply and walked out of the restaurant, and when they saw the rooms around them, they finally understood the meaning of that person's words - except for the restaurant, the location of all the rooms had changed, the room that was supposed to be at the bottom of the cabin actually appeared near the restaurant, while the rooms that were originally next to the restaurant were now all gone, and should have moved to other locations.

Seeing this change, the first time, two words surfaced in Lin Qiushi's mind: maze.

"So that's what it means," Nguyen Nam Candle said, "What a surprise."

"But how come the location of the restaurant hasn't changed?" Guilon chirped a bit at this.

"A maze always has to have a starting point." Lin Qiushi organized his thoughts, "The restaurant should be the start of this maze."

"Then where is the end?" Gu Long chirped.

"The destination is naturally at the place where Minotaur is." Ruan Nam Candle said, "Of course, we still don't know what exactly Minotaur in this door refers to."

The others arrived at the restaurant one after another, and the sensitive ones noticed the change in their surroundings before they even entered the restaurant.

"So where did my room go? My bag is still in my room and I didn't bring it out!" Someone panicked as soon as they realized what was going on and turned around with the intention of running away, "I'm going to find my bag!!!" The man turned hastily and ran toward where the original bedroom was.

But whether he could find it or not was another matter.

However, in such a short time, the houses around him actually changed again, at first a thin layer of fog rose above the door, then the numbers on the outside of the door changed - apparently, these houses changed for a very short period of time, Lin Qiushi looked at the time and saw that it would probably change to another room in about five minutes.

It was fortunate that they were in the habit of carrying their things with them, or else they would have been as panicked as the man just now.

But it seemed that there would be no surprises for the people inside the room, because just after this change, a person actually came out of the room in front of them, and that person was also dazed and said, "Aren't I on the first floor?" He looked to his left and found himself standing next to the restaurant, "What are you doing here?"

No one answered his words, everyone's attention was focused on the changing house in front of them, and the silence of death spread like a plague in front of everyone.

Lin Qiushi looked at the changing maze in front of him, but thought about what was in the clues and what Minotaur really meant.

Because of this sudden change, everyone fell into a brief panic, but someone soon adjusted their emotions and began to continue exploring.

The difference in mental state was now apparent, and at least those who could calm down earlier had a chance of survival.

Lin Qiushi and the others also tried to find the room they had stayed in before, but found that they couldn't find it at all. The rooms changed once every five minutes, and with each change all the rooms would leave their original locations, it was simply impossible to walk through all the rooms in such a short amount of time.

So most of the people were exhausted and gave up.

Lin Qiushi was also a bit tired from running and stood on the deck looking at the sea to rest.

As the sky grew darker, the sea began to swing by the whistling sea breeze and the thick dark clouds in the sky pressed down.

Gu Longming stood beside Lin Qiushi and said, "Where do we sleep at night." This time the key given yesterday was completely useless, and it was also difficult for him to shamelessly go and change it.

"Just find a random room to sleep in." Lin Qiushi said, "A bed will do."

As Lin Qiushi spoke, he heard footsteps coming from behind him, but he turned his head to look, but he found that the newcomer who had attempted to try to escape in the lifeboat during the day was standing some distance away from Lin Qiushi, and her eyes were a bit hesitant, "That... Yu Lin Lin..."

Lin Qiushi said, "May I ask what you want?"

She flew a glance at Ruan Nan Candle and withdrew her gaze, a little unnaturally, "Is it okay if I have something I want to talk to you about alone?"

Lin Qiushi looked at Ruan Nan Candle: "Meng Meng?" He was respecting Ruan Nan Candle's opinion.

"Go." Ruan Nan Candle's expression was light, not nervous at all, casually waving her hand, "Come back early."

Lin Qiushi nodded, which was why he followed the girl.

Gu Longming was smiling beside her, "Aren't you worried?"

"Worried about what?" Ruan Nan Candle asked rhetorically.

Gu Longming said, "Worried about other people hooking up with Yu Lin Lin ah."

Ruan Nan Candle said, "Do you think I'm pretty or she's pretty?"

Gu Long Ming honestly said, "You." Although you're a big hanging sprite.

Ruan Nan Candle: "Do you think I'm better or she's better?"

Gu Longming: "You..."

Ruan Nan Candle spread his hands: "Yu Linlin isn't blind, so what am I worried about?" It's not like he's an adolescent girl needing to find security, we're all adults, so why be so childishly jealous.

Gu Longming simply gave Ruan Nan Candle an admiring thumbs up.

Plus, Lin Qiushi and the girl walked to the other side of the deck, she looked very uneasy as she looked towards the back from time to time.

Lin Qiushi wasn't in a hurry to ask, waiting until they were far enough away from Ruan Nan Candle before the girl opened her mouth, she said, "That, excuse me, I want to ask, are you and that girl boyfriend and girlfriend?"

Lin Qiushi nodded and acknowledged, "She's my lover, what's your name?"

"You can just call me Mo." XiaoMo said, "It's the first time I've entered, so it turns out I can bring other people with me."

Lin Qiushi said, "Yes, what can I do for you?"

Xiao Mo swallowed, she hesitated, "I...I saw, your girlfriend and that guy next to him..."

Lin Qiushi was stunned, knowing that the man XiaoMo was talking about was Gu Longming: "What happened to them?"

"They're having an affair!!!" Mo said urgently, "It was this afternoon, I happened to be passing by upstairs, you weren't there, and I saw him lift his skirt to show that man with my own eyes!"

Lin Qiushi: "......." he heard what XiaoMo said and fell into a long silence for a while. No one knew what was under Ruan Nan Candle's skirt better than he did.

"I'm not lying to you!" Lin Qiushi's silence seemed to give XiaoMo an illusion and she quickly distinguished, "He even leaned in to that person's ear after lifting his skirt and spoke!"

Lin Qiushi: "..." he had reason to believe that Ruan Nanzhu, the drama queen, would be excited to ask Gu Longming big after lifting his skirt?

It's no wonder that Gu Longming was all over the place this afternoon, he had been lusting after him from start to finish, thinking that his spirit had taken a nuclear energy hit.

Xiao Mo said, "Yu Lin Lin you don't feel too bad...you're a good person." She sighs, "If it wasn't for you throwing me a life preserver today, I might have lost it." It seemed that she had purposely found Lin Qiushi to talk about this matter, also to repay Lin Qiushi for saving her life during the day.

Lin Qiushi wanted to say something, but didn't know what was appropriate, so he finally said, "I know, thank you."

Mo said, "What do you... do?"

Lin Qiushi was quiet for a moment, then said, "What can I do, of course, I choose to forgive him."

Xiao Mo: "..." the moment Lin Qiushi said this, it was as if she could see Lin Qiushi's hair glowing with a hidden green light.

"After all, I love him." Loving him, you have to tolerate a drama queen like him, Lin Qiushi thanked XiaoMo and turned away, waving his hand without taking a single cloud with him.

XiaoMo's expression twisted, seemingly not slowing down for a long while, looking at his reaction, it was obvious that this was not the first time this kind of thing had happened, meaning that Yu Lin Lin had become accustomed to wearing a cuckold... XiaoMo who made such a guess was extremely complex, and when he finally left the deck, the features on one face were twisted out of shape.

"What did she say to you?" Lin Qiushi asked as soon as Ruan Nam Candle returned.

Lin Qiushi looked at him: "You."

Ruan Nan Candle: "Me?"

Lin Qiushi: "What did you do with Gu Longming in the afternoon?"

Ruan Nan Candle and Gu Longming looked at each other, Gu Longming finally couldn't hold back and said, "Yu Lin Lin, why didn't you tell me earlier."

Lin Qiushi said, "Tell you what?"

Gu Longming: "Tell your lover it's a man, ah."

Lin Qiushi: "Does gender matter?"

Gu Longming was dumbfounded, "Not important though..."

Lin Qiushi: "It's the same whether you say it or not, it's going to be dark, let's go, go to sleep." After saying this, Ruan Nan Candle took Lin Qiushi's hand and leaned on his shoulder, smiling delicately at Gu Longming.

Gu Longming: "...Zhumeng please stop smiling, you are really smiling like a scourge to the people, and Lin Qiushi is the emperor who became dim-witted because of the demon princess.

Lin Qiushi, on the other hand, looked at Ruan Nan Candle and made eye contact with him: is it funny?

Ruan Nanzhu: It's fun as hell.

Lin Qiushi: Then you continue to play.

Nguyen Nam Candle: Love you yo, my baby.

More than an audience of the playwright Ruan Nam Candle, apparently at this time has been completely addicted to the script can not be extricated.
