Into the third floor to see
After hearing Xue Se's bold opinion, Ruan Bai's eyes widened a lot, and he glanced upstairs subconsciously.
Unlike the first and second floors where people often live and move around, the third floor is much gloomy, with no lights and no people. The warm-colored wallpapers and carpets have been removed, leaving only a snow-white, full of inhuman coldness.
Because the evening was over, the entrance to the stairs on the third floor was dark and dim, like a huge monster mouth, lurking here silently, waiting for the prey to throw itself into the net.
This is where the legendary couple lived in the castle.
After just one glance, Ruan Bai withdrew his gaze.
She was really courageous, and she didn't take the NPC's words seriously. She had long thought of going to the third floor for a stroll.
After all, this kind of place is a key place where many secrets can be discovered.
Even if there is danger, it is worth it compared to the huge gains.
But, isn't it too early to go to the third floor at this time
Sure enough, before she could say anything, Xue Se reacted and shook her head.
"Let's do this first," she said softly, "We'll go and see after all these songs are played."
What Xue Se said was exactly what she wanted, Ruan Bai thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
When the plot of these fourteen children is over, the game will definitely be pushed to the next plot point. By then, they may have more information, and it will be safer to go to the third floor.
It was already past six o'clock in the afternoon, the sky outside was faintly dark, and the lights in the entire castle were lit.
After confirming that nothing would happen again, Ruan Bai and Xue Se went to the kitchen together, tidied up and prepared to cook.
Because there were only four girls in the castle, and Xue Seruan Bai and others were all named in the lyrics, so the "third sister" in the lyrics just now corresponds to the eldest lady.
From the beginning of the game to now, she is the only female player who has not been named.
Thinking of her untouched appearance, Ruan Bai could vaguely guess that she might not survive this round.
The ending was just as she expected.
A few minutes later, the body of the eldest lady who was standing still suddenly trembled, and she collapsed on the ground.
A few sharp silver needles appeared on her head, piercing deeply into the top of her head, reflecting a cold light under the dim candle lamp.
Blood flowed down her fair neck, soaking her cherished fashion brand clothes, and her beautiful and delicate face was full of fear and helplessness.
She died.
When the eldest lady lost her temper with Ruan Bai several times before, Ruan Bai still complained about her in her heart.
But Ruan Bai still feels a little uncomfortable in his heart when such a lively person died.
Games are really too cruel for life.
Fortunately, after so many days, Ruan Bai has long been used to death, and she is not familiar with the young lady herself, so she can't be regarded as a friend.
After sighing, she put these strange things behind her.
In the following time, because too many people died, everyone stopped talking.
After eating dinner silently with the rest of the players, the two returned to the room and finished washing before the time came.
During this period, Ruan Bai still wanted to say something to Xue Se, but maybe she was frightened, the girl's complexion was not very good, and her body became weak.
After thinking about it, she could only give up.
While thinking about what happened in just over a day, Ruan Bai covered the quilt and fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, she woke up Xue Se.
In the following time, they began to collect information while listening to songs.
Except for the few songs that have been played before, there are a total of five songs left.
As time passed, more and more players triggered the plot, and these songs were played in sequence.
After the last song was over, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
There are only six players left here.
Judging from the content of the lyrics of each song, the rest of the plot is similar.
After the third sister was killed by the younger sister, Du's father, who was the fourth brother, cut off the throat of the third brother who was hiding with a knife.
The younger sister provoked the sixth brother to kill the four youngest brothers who were only three or four years old, but the younger sister herself died in the hands of the fifth brother—just by accident, she was killed by the fifth brother. Brother pushed down the stairs.
Although these scenes were not shown directly in front of Ruan Bai, Ruan Bai was still affected by the atmosphere here when listening to the children's brisk and hollow singing.
Children are really contradictory creatures. Ruan Bai likes their innocence, but in this game, she is also shocked by their merciless cruelty.
Ruan Bai was worried that too many accidents would happen to the players, and he also provided them with some life-saving information. Unfortunately, "knowing how to do it" and "being able to do it" are two different things.
Because of the existence of "Different Dimension", Ruan Bai couldn't help them at all. Apart from her and Xue Se, there were only five players who survived to the end.
And after these rounds of melee, the only winner among the fourteen children, without exception, was the fourth brother Du's father.
As a ghost, he entered the different space in the fifth round of singing after Xue Se abandoned his identity, and successfully won the identity he wanted by cutting the third brother's throat for a while.
After he came out of the "different space", the singing outside had stopped.
All the players were sitting on the sofa on the first floor, holding their breath, waiting for the trigger of the next round of plot.
After the fourteen children have finished fighting, what will happen here
Just when Ruan Bai's heart was beating faster and he was secretly speculating in his heart, something happened!
The moment Father Du came out, there was only a pause of three or four seconds on the third floor, and then a new singing voice appeared!
“… For three days and nights, the boy with black hair and black eyes was the lucky one; Father and mother came down from the tall building and kissed his forehead in commendation… ”
It was completely different from the previous singing. This time, it was actually a chorus of an adult man and a woman.
Their voices are no longer calm like children's, but they are singing with an extremely excited tone. distortion.
Ruan Bai listened carefully and found that these two sentences were basically summarizing.
"For three days and three nights, the boy with black hair and black eyes became the last lucky one; his father and mother came down from the tall building and kissed his forehead like a reward."
As the adoptive parents of these fourteen children, the two masters of the castle were indeed deliberately guiding the killing of the children.
In fact, Ruan Bai had already guessed through some subtle hints of the lyrics.
Before the real "Second Brother" player died, he told Ruan Bai that he dreamed that the younger sister showed a letter to the elder sister.
Ruan Bai searched the mailbox by himself that day, and found a lot of news papers, some of which were related to the bankruptcy of rich people, some were related to war, and some were related to cults.
Ruan Bai felt that these reminders should all have their own hints.
As for the item of war, she had figured it out at the time, knowing that it was implying that the masters were specially searching for children from the battlefield.
What about the bankruptcy news? What about cult news
The old castle they were in was located in a small town, so the newspapers that Ruan Bai found were basically limited to the small town.
And who can be regarded as a rich man by the locals, besides the owner of this ancient castle, who else
Not surprisingly, their economy should have been affected in the past few years. Not only can these fourteen children not be able to support them, but it may be difficult for them to maintain their daily food and clothing expenses.
This should be the reason why they attack the child, and it is also the source of the child's internal struggle.
Especially the lyrics related to the little sister, "Will I be the most obedient child" and "Your only choice, it must be me", the hints are already obvious.
The couple probably wrote a letter telling their children that because of financial constraints, they decided to give up thirteen children and only keep one.
In order to achieve the purpose, there may be a lot of provocative remarks in the letter, such as sending the children back to their hometowns, places full of blood and war.
However, it doesn't matter what it is specifically, at least this letter successfully provoked the eldest sister's emotions and made her attack the eldest brother.
With this, the prelude to the whole conspiracy was kicked off.
While Ruan Bai was thinking, the singing on the third floor was also playing slowly.
However, in the next second, something unexpected happened!
"... Dear child;
Your soul is so dark... you must be... be... able to summon the... real devil...
I don't know what happened, the originally smooth singing voice suddenly got stuck!
Like a malfunctioning machine, the parents' singing voice became intermittent in the latter sentence, mixed with sharp and piercing friction reverberation.
When they sang the words "real devil" at the end, their voices rose to an unbelievable height, and when they heard it suddenly, it was like screaming because they couldn't bear the great pain.
Especially the lyrics...
"Your soul is so dark that you must be able to summon a real demon?"
What are demons... They did this, could it be that they were performing some cult rituals!
Noticing this, Ruan Bai's eyes narrowed immediately, and he looked towards Father Du.
Father Du is the person involved, so he must know some facts.
But at this time, Father Du had disappeared.
In the empty living room, at this moment, only six players with different expressions were left.
Ruan Bai's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly stretched out his hand to grab Xue Se.
Xue Se and she looked at each other, and said a word in unison: "Run!"
If you stay here, you can only wait for death!
The couple let the children kill each other, originally they wanted to pick out an absolutely dark and dirty soul to summon the so-called "demon" in the legend.
The purpose is also simple, how many people's desires can be, left and right are nothing but emotions, fame and fortune.
But this plot can actually appear in an escape game, and the demon summoned in the end is definitely not a good thing.
Since this couple dared to do such a thing, it means that they must be sure, and they have been hiding on the third floor, refusing to appear... Doesn't it mean that the third floor is safe
Without hesitation, they immediately ran to the third floor!
The other players also reacted and followed them one after another.
Worried about Xuese's accident, and considering her physical strength, Ruan Bai stretched out his hand and hugged the little girl up.
Caught off guard by being hugged, the snow-coloured expression was stunned, her fair face was instantly tinged with a thin blush, and her body was as stiff as a board.
Normally, Ruan Bai might still make fun of the shy Xue Se like a hooligan, but now that the situation is urgent, she doesn't have time to think too much.
From the time she left, one after another black mist emerged from the kitchen, bathroom, living room and other places where people had died.
The black mist slowly condensed into child-like figures one after another, dissolving the corpses of these dead children and standing in rows in the living room.
They have pale faces and blood-stained bodies. Each ghost has a pre-death appearance. Pairs of dark red eyes are staring at the players present, and the resentment in the eyes is almost overflowing.
The black mist spread out through their bodies, as if one after another tentacles were attacking the player.
A player accidentally fell behind. He ran very slowly, and his back touched the black mist. His clothes and skin seemed to be corroded by something, and blood suddenly appeared.
He staggered and missed two steps, and his whole body was completely submerged in the black mist.
"Ah!!!"
With a shrill scream, the player's shadow disappeared into the black mist.
Ruan Bai hurriedly glanced back and took a deep breath.
And the thirteen children stood downstairs, watching them run upstairs.
Their faces were expressionless, but after seeing Ruan Bai flee to the third floor first, they raised the corners of their mouths in unison, showing a sinister smile.
In the darkness, they stared straight at Ruan Bai with inexplicable frenzy, as if saying "you can't escape".
Ruan Bai glanced at them from a distance, was startled, and looked away.
Without thinking, she rushed to the third floor.
Feeling the cool breath coming from the corridor, Ruan Bai took a deep breath and strode into the corridor on the third floor.
