When people's identities change, the world they see will also change.
When Su Qingxing was a tester, what he could see most clearly were the words and deeds of each tester, and what they had been trying to hide in their eyes.
After that, they will go through various levels in the trial world together, and finally find a way to leave the trial world by themselves or under the leadership of Su Qingxing.
When the testers pass the level, they will know that they are not human beings, but like the enemies they fear, they have become dead souls.
In fact, in various ancient books of human beings, a similar process is also circulated.
Legend has it that after the death of human beings, their souls will go through a period of confusion. During this process, they think they are still alive, and even try to find their way home. When they really find their way, they realize that they are dead.
And the trial of the underworld, in the final analysis, is to show such a process, and for various reasons, it is necessary for the guides of the underworld to take this opportunity to select talents for the ghost city.
So when Su Qingxing pretended to be a tester, he would accompany them through the period of confusion, and accompany them to find a way out, before finally telling them the truth.
But when Su Qingxing's identity is changed to "ghost", the whole world is very different.
Take the corridor on the fourth floor where Su Qingxing is now as an example, there are too many things that are completely different from the past.
At first, those ghosts came to see Su Qingxing respectfully, but when they heard footsteps coming from the stairs, they immediately returned to their original work positions, any movement of position may make the trial are suspicious.
On the left hand side of Su Qingxing, there are four ghosts wearing hospital gowns. They stand on the ground in very uniform movements. When someone appears in the corridor, these four ghosts in the front will turn around like sunflowers , revealing their faces that seemed to have been cut by a chainsaw.
If the tester doesn't look at them, then they are just like sunflowers facing the sun, turning their bodies as the tester moves forward.
But if the tester glanced at them, the four ghosts would always follow behind the tester, taking away the five sense organs of the tester little by little, and piece them together on their own faces.
In the end, the four ghosts will take the form of the tester, and the tester... will naturally die due to excessive blood loss.
This is the ferocity of the ghosts on the fourth floor.
But this kind of cruelty is only aimed at the testers. All the ghosts struggling in the workplace know that these testers have already died, and it is impossible to die again. Most of the ghosts have even experienced such trials themselves, so every time they work, they can be regarded as joyful.
Su Qingxing, who had turned into a translucent ghost, happened to be wandering around the four ghost patients, and heard the hardworking staff discussing—
A ghost: "This time it's my turn to pick a good-looking face."
Two ghosts: "When will we be able to go to work with our own faces on our faces? It's a pity that I have such a handsome face, since I came here to work, I can't see anyone at all!"
Three ghosts: "Don't mention it, last time I managed to save enough grade points to entrust a dream to my girlfriend in this world, but in the end I even forgot to take off my makeup, almost scaring her so much that she came to see me directly."
Four ghosts: "Stop talking nonsense, let's save our grade points and change to a more comfortable job in the future, just like the Doctor Ripper on the first floor, who can sleep when no one is around."
All ghosts: "Yeah, yeah!"
If the tester passed the first level directly, he would see two nurses at the guidance desk on the fourth floor putting on makeup. They cut off their right index finger and used blood to apply lip gloss on themselves.
Completely different from the previous four ghost patients, the testers definitely did not ignore the two nurses whose mouths were full of blood, but should praise them generously. Because they are set to be female ghosts who like makeup and beauty, but lack the praise of others.
If the tester keeps staring at these two nurse ladies, they will sit where they are and continue to concentrate on making up, at most they will look at you from time to time.
But if the tester tried to avoid sight because of fear, the two nurses would be angry because they were ignored. They would use the chainsaw hidden under the guiding table to "cut and transform" the tester into their The most beautiful look in my heart.
The chainsaw that Si Qing held in his hand before should have been taken from these two nurses.
However, when Su Qingxing passed the consultation desk in a ghostly manner, he heard the two nurses chatting softly—
A nurse: "I'm really fed up with this lipstick shade. It doesn't match my skin tone at all. If it wasn't for grade points, I would have quit my job a long time ago."
Two nurses: "Calm down, this is not lipstick, it's just your blood, God knows what shade of lipstick it is. And with some more grade points, we can take annual leave to go shopping in the ghost town."
When seeing Su Qingxing, the two nurses who were bleeding from the corners of their mouths immediately stopped talking, but Su Qingxing only showed a friendly smile and would not accuse them of chatting in their free time outside of work.
Except for some necessary illusions and props created by the builder such as paper stick figures, most of the ghosts are made by the residents of the ghost town.
The ghost town No. 666 has a long history. Before Zhu Sha and Su Qingxing, there were many builders and guides, so there are many ghosts in the ghost town. After the new builder Zhu Sha took office, all ghosts began to work in the terrifying world he created.
Through the length of work, the ghosts can get something called "grade points". When the grade points accumulate to a certain amount, the ghosts can exchange for the ultimate benefits of vacation, dreams and even reincarnation.
Sometimes Su Qingxing even felt that the working environment and working procedures of these dead souls were more mature and perfect than the trial itself in some respects.
All in all, when Su Qingxing was a tester, what he saw was the hard-working side of the dead souls.
But when Su Qingxing stood on the side of the "ghosts", he was able to see the true condition of these "dead souls", in fact, they were just a group of staff working hard to test the practitioners.
"I come from the bottom of the lava of hell, surrounded by dancing corpses, there are as many people who love me as sand, but I just want to hold my lover in my arms, oh oh oh—"
Familiar rock music, and that familiar messy tune, a familiar figure belonging to Si Qing appeared in the corridor on the fourth floor.
"I've always been curious." After seeing Si Qing, Su Qingxing asked in a low voice to the two nurses next to him who were about to start working, "Si Qing himself should not have any special abilities, but why can he move freely from the first to the fourth floor?" Woolen cloth?"
"In fact, we have a division of labor." One of the nurses explained, "The basic task of all the ghosts on the first to sixth floors is to kill all the testers and the original survivors of the hospital. Ghosts have different rules."
"Yes, the job of the ghosts on the first floor is basically to scare people. If there is nothing serious, no one will attack." Another nurse lady said a little enviously, "The ghosts on the second to fourth floors started to attack the testers and survivors. But it doesn’t attack the mirror image, so we don’t need to fight against Si Qing. The ghosts on the fifth floor attack indiscriminately. We have hosted several groups of testers here, and no one can successfully break into the sixth floor.”
"Actually, we have a good relationship with Si Qing." A blood shadow suddenly appeared on the wall next to him, and a voice came from the blood shadow, "He is quite funny, his words are very funny, and he likes to sing."
"Working here is actually quite boring." A pale man rolled his head out from the corner, "When Si Qing was here, every day was lively, so even if he told us not to attack the testers and survivors , we have no complaints, just take this opportunity to take a break."
"But this is considered not to have completed the task?" Su Qingxing felt like a veteran cadre who went to the grassroots for research and was listening to the voices of the working people at the moment, "Will it have some impact on the grade point?"
"No." All the ghosts silently shook their heads, "Anyway, the colleagues on the fifth floor will continue to work diligently, those guys are much more vicious than us."
Su Qingxing did not show his figure in front of Si Qing. The reason why he came to the fourth floor immediately was to know what method Si Qing was going to use to make all the testers, mirror images and survivors of the hospital Together we reached the fourth floor without incident.
Unexpectedly, what Si Qing relied on was indeed the "people" network he created on the fourth floor, but this social relationship can only be maintained until everyone climbs to the fourth floor. The situation on the fifth and sixth floors seems to be unacceptable. optimism.
After understanding this, Su Qingxing, who appeared in the form of a translucent "ghost", returned to the first floor of the hospital. When he left before, he was a little anxious. Su Qingxing didn't know how Chu Bai and Shen Si were doing now. Although he didn't know these people for a long time, he didn't know why Su Qingxing thought it was necessary for him to take a look.
Especially the two children, Bear and Dodo.
Su Qingxing promised them several times before that he would definitely take them out of this world, so even if Su Qingxing cheated and left the team now, he would continue to fulfill this promise.
Su Qingxing's body went straight all the way down, passing through floors one by one. In order to reset a more efficient trial, he issued a second order to all the ghosts along the way.
Staff shuffle.
Rules reset.
This time, the entire trial of the Mirror Hospital will become the rule of Su Qingxing, the trialist of the underworld.
After exhorting all the way down, Su Qingxing reached the first floor, where the original shelter was located. The large ward had been scrapped due to the collapse of the floor, but the small empty room outside the shelter was still intact.
Su Qingxing originally thought that everyone had already left.
But when he returned to the refuge on the first floor, he found that there was another person in the room, and that was Shen Si who had been with him before...
He is always there.
×××××
At that time, after a huge bang, the entire floor of the large ward collapsed, but Su Qingxing did not have time to get out of the large ward, and his life and death were unknown...
Coupled with the ghosts on the second floor rushing towards the survivors and testers, the scene at that time can be said to be very chaotic. Although most of the people, including Bai Chu and Niu Yong, turned around and left, they immediately left the shelter that might be dangerous.
Only the sisters Xiaoxiong and Dodo, and Chubai were willing to stay with Shen Si to find Su Qingxing's whereabouts, but in the end, Shensi still found a way to let Chubai take Xiaoxiong and Dodo to catch up with the large army first, and they also had to go to the underground blood bank To find Niu Yong, you have to go to the fourth floor to meet Si Qing.
There will be various dangers in the whole process. Even if everyone has the spell drawn by Chu Bai in their hands, they may not be safe. After all, everyone still maintains a skeptical attitude towards Si Qing's words.
Under such circumstances, Chu Bai, who can keep ghosts from getting close, has become the most indispensable person in the entire team, so Shen Si temporarily entrusted the two children to Chu Bai, and promised that after confirming Su Qingxing's situation, he would Catch up as fast as you can.
However…
In fact, Shen Si should be the one who is least worried about Su Qingxing in the whole team, because our Lord Death knows very well the identity of his fiancé, and even feels that the collapse of that floor is part of Su Qingxing's work.
There are actually several reasons why Shen Si chose to stay in the shelter.
The first reason is that now that Su Qingxing has left the team, Shen Si naturally has no mood to accompany the testers to move forward step by step, so he found a place to rest.
The second reason is that Shen Si always felt that Su Qingxing would come back here, so he stayed here and waited.
The third reason is that during this period of time, in order to increase the favorability in front of Su Qingxing, Shensi has skipped work many times when his subordinates are busy at work, so taking advantage of a person in the shelter, Lord Reaper just started to accept the news from Su Qingxing. According to the news passed by his subordinates, he took a little time out of his busy schedule to deal with official duties.
One last reason...
Although even Death himself was a little embarrassed to admit it, but when the floor collapsed, he really felt a sense of suffocation for a moment.
Even though he knew that the guides of the underworld would not be in any danger during the trials of the underworld, Death God still couldn't help but have such thoughts in his mind.
However, just after Shen Si stayed in the refuge room for a while, he saw a translucent figure walk in directly through the gate.
Even if everyone couldn't see that figure, Shen Si would definitely be able to see it.
The slightly slender boy was wearing pajamas with a blue heart pattern on a white background and blue fluffy slippers on his feet. Apart from being translucent, he was no different from the previous Su Qingxing.
Shen Si was standing by the window covered by the cloth at that time, and could easily see the appearance of Su Qingxing and the surprised look on the young man's face the moment he saw him.
However, Shen Si restrained his expression very well. He seemed to be pacing in the room unconsciously. After a little swaying, he stood in front of Su Qingxing as if by chance.
Two people just stood facing each other, one pretended not to see anything, the other felt that it was impossible to be seen.
Shen Si is very tall, even if Su Qingxing stood up straight, he could only reach his shoulders at most. Such a height gap made it easy for Shen Si to hug the young man in front of him as long as he stretched out his hand.
Such a height gap also made Shen Si can kiss Su Qingxing's forehead for a long time as long as he lowered his head. If Su Qingxing happened to raise his head at this time, perhaps the angle of contact with meditation would be softer...
Shen Si tried his best not to squint, as if he really didn't see Su Qingxing in a translucent state.
However, when Shen Si carefully observed the boy from the corner of his eye, he found that the boy who was standing face to face with him immediately took a few steps back after showing a slightly embarrassed expression, and then the whole person began to move towards the direction of the wall, and finally shifted away. To the position against the wall.
However, Shen Si did not intend to let go of this rare opportunity. Shen Si just paced around the room for a while, then walked to the wall that Su Qingxing was leaning against, stretched out his right hand to support the wall, and trapped Su Qingxing between him and the wall. Can't move.
And Shen Si took this opportunity to let out a long sigh, the sigh seemed to be blowing in Su Qingxing's ears, and Shen Si seemed to be able to feel Su Qingxing's breathing, close at hand.
"I'm sorry, I've been by your side all the time, but I wasn't by your side at that time." Shen Si looked at the wall directly in front of her, and didn't have any visual contact with Su Qingxing.
He could feel Su Qingxing's breathing getting heavier in meditation, but what he said just now was indeed the truth. When the floor collapsed, Shen Si completely forgot the identity of himself and Su Qingxing. Even afterwards, he asked himself again and again, what if Su Qingxing encountered danger in a place he could not see
Shen Si's worry is absolutely not unfounded. The reason why he has not told Su Qingxing the truth and has been silently following Su Qingxing is because there are still some unresolved problems in the underworld, which may affect Su Qingxing's life. Safety.
Both Shen Si and Su Qingxing didn't speak, they just stood facing each other for a while, until Shen Si paced to another place again.
"Mr. Shen, can you see me?" Su Qingxing is not an idiot, so when Shen Si walked to his place once or twice, Su Qingxing still became suspicious.
It's just that there was no response when he thought about it, as if he didn't hear anything, he found another place to rest with his eyes closed, and didn't seem to plan to leave this refuge.
Facing the contemplative silence, Su Qingxing asked a few more times and did not continue, only thinking that there might have been one or two coincidences just now.
But Su Qingxing had to admit that when he found out that there were always people in this refuge, and when he found that Shen Si had been staying in the refuge, Su Qingxing felt...a little happy.
Passing through the wall, Su Qingxing walked directly along the corridor to the deep staircase.
"We have to save Niu Yong, he has been there for too long!" If you go down the stairs to the basement, you can reach the underground blood bank. Niu Yong's mirror image is still there trying to open the lock of the blood bank, so the survivors There was a crying voice, "The basement floor is full of poisonous gas, he must have almost lost his hold!!"
The one who spoke was a female nurse among the survivors. She was the only survivor who was trapped in the blood bank and escaped alone.
They are said to be survivors, but in fact the survivors in these hospitals are similar to the NPC characters constructed by Zhu Sha, but when they are in it, these survivors who act according to the script are no different from ordinary people in terms of emotion and behavior .
"Niu Yong has the only set of protective clothing we found." Chu Bai led everyone on the platform between the first floor and the second floor. This mirror image who would rather sacrifice himself to save others, now meets When it came to the problem, his face was full of sadness, "Any one of us may go down and never return."
If going to the basement level could get everyone out, Chu Bai would definitely not hesitate. But in the absence of protective clothing, entering the basement floor has no benefit other than death.
What's more, now, in order for Chubai to let more people live, he has to make it to the fourth floor alive!
He would not just watch other people go down to the first floor to die without protective clothing, so in the end he could only say with a headache: "Niu Yong has protective clothing, so after he unlocks it, he will definitely take it with him." Come up with the others."
Chu Bai hoped to think of a way to make everyone safe, but he couldn't think of it. As early as when there were fewer and fewer survivors in the refuge, as early as when he realized that he could not save Su Qingxing, Chu Bai knew that he was by no means a savior, nor a saint.
He can only save one of them, and apart from doing his best, he can't do anything beyond his ability.
"But that's just a medical protective suit, not a space suit. Niu Yong may..."
"I'll go!" Just when everyone was having a headache because of the people on the basement floor, Niu Yong himself, who had been standing on the top floor, suddenly stood up, and he swallowed nervously, "That mirror image hasn't come up yet. There are only two possibilities, one is that it has not been unlocked so far, the other is... sorry, I am not very good at speaking euphemistically, and the other possibility is that my mirror image may have died."
"I'll block my mouth and nose with a cloth, and then I'll go down and have a look." Niu Yong puffed out his chest, as if trying to muster up his courage, "If it's the second type, I'll come up soon. It’s the first one, so my deity’s lockpicking technology can also help, can’t it?”
Everyone, including Chu Bai, looked at Niu Yong with admiration, but Bai Chu, who was standing beside Niu Yong, had a half-smile, with a very strange expression.
Su Qingxing was standing not far from Chubai, but no one noticed his existence, which made it convenient for Su Qingxing to observe all the testers and mirror images here in all directions.
Su Qingxing first noticed Duoduo and Xiaoxiong standing hand in hand. Although the two children were very young, they seemed to understand something during the process, so whether it was Xiaoxiong or Duoduo, their eyes were a little red Red.
Little Bear once promised Su Qingxing that he would take good care of Dodo, so now, like when he first saw Su Qingxing, Little Bear held back the urge to cry, held back his tears, and even held back his sleeves carefully Wipe away Duo Duo's tears, and let Duo Duo around her stop crying.
When he heard that Niu Yong was going to save his mirror image, Su Qingxing was also very surprised. After all, according to Niu Yong's information, he is not the kind of person who has the spirit of sacrifice at all, and he is not even willing to help others. Didn't expect that at this moment, Niu Yong would be willing to rush into the poison gas-filled basement floor, just to get a mirror image
Niu Yong covered his mouth and nose with various cloths, and then rushed into the basement.
Su Qingxing, who was in a translucent ghost state, followed Niu Yong into the basement floor. The poisonous gas there had no effect on Su Qingxing, so he was just an ordinary bystander.
The whole hospital originally had a red filter, coupled with the poisonous gas visible to the naked eye on the basement floor, so that when Su Qingxing followed Niu Yong into the basement floor, he could only see a thick color and a foul smell. in it.
The poisonous gas was harmless to Su Qingxing, but because of the stench, he could only cover his mouth and nose with his sleeve, and followed Niu Yong to find the location of the underground blood bank.
Not long after walking, Su Qingxing saw a man in a blue protective suit lying outside a large iron gate, with many tools scattered around.
If I guessed right, it should be the mirror image of Niu Yong.
"Very good!"
Um? Su Qingxing thought he heard something wrong, but the real Niu Yong in front of him was really dancing with joy.
Is it the joy of having found your mirror image
"Great, he's dead! He's dead!" Niu Yong's next words reversed the whole situation. This honest-looking truck driver was clearly gloating at his own mirrored "death".
"Ahem..." But what surprised both Niu Yong and Su Qingxing was that the mirror image of Niu Yong who fell on the ground was not dead, but woke up because of Niu Yong's yelling, and grabbed Niu Yong's body as soon as he stretched out his hand. Ankle, raised his head with all his strength and said to Niu Yong, "cough cough, save the people in the blood bank... It's just a little bit... I can unlock the lock... save them!"
Niu Yong looked at his mirror image, but the poison gas around him didn't give him much time.
Then... Su Qingxing watched with his own eyes as Niu Yong squatted down, and directly tore off all the protective clothing and visor on his mirror image, exposing the mirror image who had been trying to unlock the blood bank door to the poisonous gas.
"Ahem... cough cough cough... why..." Niu Yong's mirror image didn't seem to have thought that what he insisted on until the last moment was not assistance, but the god of death who wanted to kill him.
After Niu Yong himself put the snatched protective equipment on himself, he squatted down again, grabbed his mirror image's neck, and said in a muffled voice: "Sorry, it's too scary to have a mirror image that knows everything about me." ! Even the police failed to catch me, how could I let someone like you tell everything, how could I let everyone know that I am a fugitive... murderer?!"
Niu Yong said the last three words very lightly, as if even he was afraid.
"No... no... say..." The mirror image that was strangled by the neck struggled hard.
"Feel sorry."
But in the end, Niu Yong just watched him faint and couldn't say a word in the end.
Niu Yong killed his mirror image.
The door lock of the blood bank was about to be unlocked, but Niu Yong didn't even look at it. He turned around and left. He didn't take off his protective clothing until he reached the stairs, and stuffed it into a nearby corner. Then covered his mouth and nose with a cloth, and rushed out from the stairs with an anxious expression on his face.
After watching all this from the sidelines, Su Qingxing went directly to Niu Yong's mirrored corpse and waved. A translucent ghost floated out of the corpse.
At the same time, two equally translucent shadows passed through the gate of the blood bank and stood beside Niu Yong's mirror image.
Now, in front of Su Qingxing, there are three translucent dead souls.
"Go to the fifth floor first, where you can tell everything you know in front of everyone." Su Qingxing nodded to the three dead souls, watching them continue to float upwards, directly from the basement floor. The ceiling disappears.
Su Qingxing didn't stop Niu Yong at first, because he found that Niu Yong's mirror image was indeed dead, but he grabbed Niu Yong's ankle at the moment when the light came back.
It's a pity that even in the last days, Niu Yong's mirror image didn't feel any warmth, but met a demon who forced him into hell.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Niu Yong pushed open the door of the basement floor, ran directly to the place where Chubai and the others were, and fell directly on the ground, his face became very pale from inhaling the poisonous gas, "I'm sorry, they...they returned not coming… "
Niu Yong is a person who is not good at hiding his facial expressions, but this time Niu Yong didn't let it go, because he did inhale the poisonous gas, and he really panicked because he killed his own mirror image with his own hands. Such a panicked and pale expression made no one around him doubt what Niu Yong said.
"When I went, my mirror image was dead... The lock of the blood bank had been opened in a mess, maybe because my mirror image was already unconscious when the lock was finally unlocked." Niu Yong took a deep breath for a long time before gradually Slowed down, "The lock is completely broken, and there is no way to open it."
"What about the people in the blood bank?" The survivors next to him immediately became nervous.
"Sorry, I was screaming inside, but the people in the blood bank didn't make a sound at all. I suspect... I suspect they have..." Because he couldn't control his expression well, Niu Yong stretched out his hand to cover himself face, "I'm sorry, no one can save them..."
Everyone fell silent. In a short period of time, they heard the news of the death of many lives, and even began to wonder if they could really get out of this world, and wondered whether they would also die in the next second because of Died for various reasons.
"Let's keep going up, there is not so much time left for us to be sad, the living have to keep going." Chu Bai took the lead to walk towards the second floor, "I'm sorry, I can't make everyone live come down."
Chu Bai's voice was full of powerlessness and frustration, and the expression on his face was full of helplessness and exhaustion.
But contrary to Chu Bai, Bai Chu, who is the deity, still watched all this with a smile, as if he was a complete bystander, even more indifferent than Su Qingxing.
"I'll help him." Bai Chu took over Niu Yong from a survivor, but he didn't see the translucent Su Qingxing following them closely.
"Beautiful job, Brother Niu." Bai Chu praised Niu Yong in a very soft voice, "When I saw you before, I thought you were timid, but I didn't expect you to be so courageous."
"... It seems that you know everything." Niu Yong was still very weak at the moment, and his whole body became stiff after being supported by Bai Chu. He wanted to stay away from this guy, but he couldn't take a step.
"My memory is very good, so when we first met, I remembered seeing Big Brother Niu on TV." Bai Chu was still smiling, "The photo on the arrest warrant is quite handsome, stealing and murdering, You, a simple and honest truck driver, are really not simple."
"Shut up!" Niu Yong obviously didn't expect that he had already solved the mirror image, and there was a guy outside who knew his details.
Immediately, Niu Yong looked at Bai Chu with killing intent in his eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't say anything." Because Bai Chu was supporting Niu Yong, he could pretend to be behind, and the soft communication between the two could hardly reach the ears of those in front.
"Are you going to help me?" Niu Yong looked at Bai Chu in disbelief.
Niu Yong's mirror image is a good person, and Bai Chu's mirror image is also a good person. So even if Niu Yong's brain is a little inflexible, he can guess that the smiling tiger who is supporting him now is definitely not a good person.
"Didn't you realize that the leader of this team hates me?" Bai Chu glanced at Chu Bai's direction, "So I have to find a teammate who won't hate me, right?"
After finishing speaking, the two quickened their steps and chased towards the second floor. And Su Qingxing has always followed behind the two of them, listening to the conversation between Bai Chu and Niu Yong.
The corridor on the second floor looks no different from the first floor. Under the blood-red filter, there are flashing lights in the corridor and many doors that are opened or closed. No one knows what is hidden behind the door.
Chubai and the others stopped at the entrance of the corridor on the second floor, because a wheelchair appeared in front of them, and on the wheelchair was a skinny ghost that looked like it had been sucked dry, tremblingly reaching out to them.
"Uh—" The voice squeezed out of the thirsty throat sounded in the corridor, and this continuous voice was enough to make people feel uncomfortable.
Everyone stopped there, and some couldn't help swallowing nervously, because they didn't know if what Si Qing said was true. Would these scary-looking ghosts really not attack them
Just when they were hesitating, something surprising happened. The scary ghost sitting in the wheelchair actually moved a certain distance to the edge... The ghost made way for Chu Bai and the others!
Although there was still an uncomfortable sound coming out of the ghost's throat, everyone breathed a sigh of relief after Bai first brushed past the ghost.
The two children followed Chubai closely, because for the current situation, following Chubai seemed to be the safest choice.
But... that ghost really won't attack them!
What Si Qing said is true!
"Mr. Chubai!" Just as they passed the first ghost, one of the survivors suddenly yelled in horror, "Nurse Li who was following me is gone!"
"Disappeared? What's going on?!" After hearing what the survivor said, Chu Bai stopped again and looked around in confusion, but he couldn't find Nurse Li.
"I... don't know either!" It was a patient among the survivors who discovered this. With an expression of disbelief, he stammered, "I, I just walked like this, and then, I saw Li Nurse, when I saw Nurse Li, she turned into ashes and disappeared!"
According to the patient, the nurse didn't get lost or escape, but disappeared in an unimaginable way...into ashes
"How is it possible..." Chu Bai only felt that this was a new crisis, and he even began to feel that he was not suitable and capable of being a leader, because he couldn't stop the reduction in his team at all.
And the reason why Nurse Li disappeared was not because she was attacked by a ghost, but because Su Qingxing moved behind her.
Because of Si Qing's instructions, the ghosts on the second, third and fourth floors would not attack Chu Bai and them, but Su Qingxing couldn't make this trial too simple, so he set up a new script.
But this time, the main villain of the script became Su Qingxing himself.
"Cough cough." Su Qingxing, who was in an invisible state, coughed a few times, and changed his voice with some tricks that non-humans are familiar with, making his voice sound older and colder, "This hospital is not just a ghost nest, and can eat people."
No one could see Su Qingxing's figure, but they could hear his voice. But still no one knew that the indifferent old man who was talking was actually Su Qingxing in disguise.
"Who are you? Where are you?!" Chu Bai slightly raised his voice, wanting to know where the talking thing was, but he couldn't see any movement at all.
"We will meet eventually, at the end of this trial." Su Qingxing continued to talk to them with a disguised voice, "but the premise is that some of you can make it to the end."
"Go on, survivors, you don't have much time left." Su Qingxing passed the survivors one by one while speaking, and walked directly to the front of Chu Bai.
During this process, everyone can feel that the voice is getting closer and closer to them, and it is still moving forward.
"Let's keep going."
Under Chu Bai's instructions, everyone tried their best to forget what happened just now, and continued to walk to the other end of the corridor on the second floor, where the stairs leading to the third floor were.
Su Qingxing mixed in this team in an invisible state like this. When he saw Xiaoxiong and Douduo who were walking forward step by step carefully, and carefully staggered because of the sundries in the corridor, Su Qingxing even walked over and quietly helped the two. A child.
He had promised to protect them, and he would do so.
Along the way, they saw many ghosts that they had never seen before, such as ghosts that were repeatedly passing through walls, a murderous doctor whose ten fingers turned into scalpels, and a screaming ghost in a certain delivery room. Bleeding maternity, that ghost bled so much that the room almost turned into a pond.
But without exception, none of these ghosts harmed them.
Just like what Si Qing said at the beginning.
But when everyone was approaching the stairs on the third floor, Su Qingxing began to fuel the team again.
"Just now, there were three more ghosts in this hospital." The indifferent and old voice reached the ears of the survivor again.
"Those three ghosts came out of the underground blood bank, and one of them was wearing a protective suit. Even if that ugly thing died, it would always follow him." Su Qingxing walked backwards, which made it easier for him to observe the team everyone's facial expressions.
Just like Niu Yong who was walking behind now, his whole body has become scared, and he should be very worried that this inexplicable voice will say something that shouldn't be said.
"That's our former companion." Chu Bai knew that fear was useless, if this invisible "old man" wanted to chat with them, then Chu Bai couldn't refuse.
"Yeah, the guy in the protective suit died painfully, but what he said was very strange." Su Qingxing stared at Niu Yong closely, "He said that he was strangled to death by a guy who looked exactly like him. "
"Boom!" Niu Yong's foot slipped, if it wasn't for Bai Chu who was beside him to grab him, he might have hit his head on the hard ground.
Everyone stopped again. This corridor was obviously not that long, but it was extremely difficult for them to walk.
Neither Bai Chu nor Niu Yong had formal contact with that mirror image, but Chu Bai and other survivors regarded Niu Yong's mirror image as a friend and partner.
So when they heard the news, they were all shocked by what the "old man" said, and looked at Niu Yong with disbelief.
"Niu Yong, is what he said true?" Chu Bai's voice trembled, "What exactly did you do after you got to the basement?"
"Don't be fooled, everyone!" Bai Chu was the first to retort, "We only hear voices but can't see people, so the other party is most likely a ghost. Since it is a ghost, it must be very good at confusing people, so now he Telling these lies is just to make us fight among ourselves!"
It may be because what Bai Chu said made sense, so the survivors were also a little confused, knowing which person's words were credible.
"Do you know why the man in protective clothing was killed?" Su Qingxing didn't care how many people believed him, all he had to do was tell everything.
Whether they believe it or not, Su Qingxing's goal has been achieved.
This time Chubai didn't talk to him again, because if the voice was really demagogic, continuing to chat with this voice would only be harmful rather than beneficial.
"Because he knows too much about the murderer, and the murderer wants his secrets to be hidden forever, so he needs to kill everyone who knows." Su Qingxing noticed that even with Bai Chu's support, Niu Yong was already scared away I stopped moving, "Many people nowadays are not as good as they are. They may look simple and honest, and they may look timid, but their hands may be covered with blood."
"I didn't do it, I didn't do it." Niu Yong tried his best to defend himself, "When I arrived at the blood bank, they were all dead!"
"He's lying!" Niu Yong suddenly remembered something, as if he had caught a huge flaw in Su Qingxing, and said loudly, "I remembered, my mirror image was not wearing protective clothing at all when it died. , he is lying!"
"Really?" Su Qingxing's voice was still calm, "Then why doesn't he have protective clothing on him? Why did he take off the protective clothing when he knew he would die from the poisonous gas?"
While guiding others to think about this matter, Su Qingxing directly and decisively gave the answer: "Is it because the murderer took off his protective clothing directly? For what? To let him die earlier due to poison gas ?"
"...I, how could I know why he took off the protective clothing, I just told what I saw." Niu Yong was still trying to defend himself, while Bai Chu, who was standing beside him, turned his head in a horrible way It seemed that it was a mistake for me to find such a person as a companion.
"Let's continue to go up." The matter has clearly reached a fever pitch, and all the survivors began to look at Niu Yong with hatred, but at this moment, Chu Bai's tired voice came, "We have no other choice but to go up." s Choice."
"I'm sorry, I want to save everyone, but I can't do it." This is the first time Chubai has apologized. Everyone can hear the helplessness in his words, but no one can help Chubai share the burden. part of the pressure.
The words Su Qingxing said did not cause any harm to the survivors, but it made everyone's heart heavy, and the pressure on everyone was like a pile of building blocks, which were piled up one after another.
Everyone followed Chu Bai, protected the two weakest children in the middle, and walked up the stairs to the third floor without incident.
Immediately afterwards, under everyone's watchful eyes, another survivor turned into ashes in public, and completely drifted away in the absence of wind.
"Could it be that every time we go up a floor, one person will be eaten by the hospital?" Chubai had a resigned expression on his face, but when he turned his head and saw Dodo and Xiaoxiong, he took a deep breath and continued. Move forward.
At least... at least get these two kids out of here!
When I was in the corridor on the second floor before, those ghosts seemed to be visiting a zoo, standing by and watching Chu Bai and his team advance little by little.
The corridor on the third floor is completely different, because there is no light in the entire corridor. Although one side of the corridor has been turned into a window, there are no stars or moon outside, let alone any light.
There is darkness in front of all survivors, and everyone can only grope forward in the darkness!
If not everyone believed that Si Qing had arranged everything, no one knew what they would encounter in the darkness of the corridor on the third floor.
Imagine countless ghosts shuttling through the darkness, even sticking to your body and face, survivors can understand why Si Qing said that the higher you go, the more dangerous you go.
Just as everyone was holding their breath and praying as they walked forward, that old and indifferent voice appeared in their ears again.
"Welcome to the third floor. If it wasn't for the little guy who likes to sing, maybe you wouldn't have had the chance to hear me."
It was precisely because the corridor on the third floor was pitch black that Su Qingxing, who had always been very worried about Little Bear and Dodo, held the hands of the two children in the darkness.
Little Xiong and Dodo only felt that someone was leading them, but they couldn't guess that Su Qingxing, who had disappeared for a long time, returned to them. With the help of Su Qingxing, they walked steadily forward, avoiding all the obstacles in the corridor.
"Are you talking nonsense again, old man?!" Niu Yong said a little unconvinced, "Am I also disappointed when I saw that no one had internal strife because of your instigation?"
"I want to tell you a secret this time." Su Qingxing led the two children along the way, "Actually, it doesn't matter how many people you die along the way, because this place is originally hell, everyone So come here... because you're all dead."
From the beginning to the present, Su Qingxing has never lied. But because of what he just said, it seems that more and more people feel that this voice is really bewitching them.
"Do you think I'm lying?" The indifferent and old figure said, "This hospital is abandoned like this, why are there still nurses and patients among the survivors? Even if they didn't die in the fire, they should have died a long time ago." Have you left the hospital already?"
"The hospital is surrounded by fog, and it is impossible to escape." Chu Bai tried to argue, "We have tried many times, but we were forced to stay here."
"There is another place where there is so much fog? Don't you think that this hospital is actually the only building that exists in this world? Be sober, in fact, you are already in hell, and you are already dead." Su Qingxing could feel the breathing around him getting heavier, and everyone fell into a more tense state because of what he said.
This kind of tension is even more serious because of the completely dark corridor in front of him.
"Just like that Niu Yong." Su Qingxing called out his names directly. "Theft, robbery, and murder are all enough to send him to prison, but in the end he died in a car accident while driving a truck to escape."
"You liar!" Niu Yong obviously wouldn't believe that he died because of such a thing.
"And that Mr. Bai." When Su Qingxing mentioned Bai Chu, his tone sank, "Mr. Bai has a very wonderful life, right?"
An old voice came from the darkness, but it didn't tell a story, but said in a questioning tone: "Mr. Chubai, you should know Mr. Bai's life better than me, right?"
"The most important thing now is to survive. Even if we know more about Mr. Bai's life, it is impossible to increase our chances of survival." Chu Bai didn't seem to want to mention anything related to Bai Chu.
"There seem to be two children in your team." Su Qingxing still led Duoduo and Xiaoxiong, "How about we make an exchange, as long as Mr. Chubai tells you what you know, as long as I am satisfied with what you hear How about letting these two children walk to the sixth floor safely?"
The chips thrown by Su Qingxing.
And this bargaining chip is very important to Chubai.
So finally, Chubai's voice came out of the darkness—
"Bai Chu has been a genius since he was a child. He never forgets anything, and he is the fastest at learning everything. Everyone who has met him thinks that Bai Chu will become a great person in the future, and become an elite in a certain field. "
"But the gods gave him wisdom, but didn't give him a healthy body. Since he was a child, Bai Chu has been suffering from serious and minor illnesses, and even faced the danger of dying several times."
"Because of this, Bai Chu's parents gave birth to a second child, a very healthy child who can take care of them no matter what happens to Bai Chu."
"You know too much." A voice almost identical to that of Chu Bai came from behind the team, "Don't continue talking, you will regret it."
There was hostility in Bai Chu's voice, especially in such a dark environment, he seemed to be planning to do something to Chu Bai.
"Go on, Mr. Chubai." Su Qingxing can see things in the dark. It should be said that this is an ability that most non-humans have. "He can't get close to you."
In order to keep Bai Chu from disturbing Chu Bai, several ghosts walking in Su Qingxing's corridor gave orders to let them mix in the team and prevent Bai Chu from approaching Chu Bai at any time.
And Bai Chu, who had been trying to squeeze forward, had no idea that the guys standing in front of him at this moment were actually a few ghosts whose bodies were completely burnt, bloody and bloody.
"Bai Chu has always been the favored child of heaven. Even if he is always in and out of the hospital, he still works hard to learn all kinds of things, and believes that one day he can truly become a master. Until one day, Bai Chu knew that you might live He was less than thirty years old, so his whole body went astray."
"Modern medicine may not be able to help Bai Chu, so he began to study various metaphysics, including black magic, Taoism, Yin Yang, etc., which may be true or false, and are all within the scope of Bai Chu's research."
"In order to keep myself alive, Bai Chu can pay all the price around me." There seemed to be a wry smile in Chu Bai's voice, "You heard me right, he didn't want to make himself pay the price, but he tried every means to make the people around him Relatives and friends paid the price on his behalf."
"Once, he discovered something called blood sacrifice. According to the information he got, as long as blood is sacrificed in the ceremony, people's souls can get eternal life."
"But because performing a blood sacrifice is a very dangerous thing, Bai Chu tricked his younger brother Bai Hua into performing a blood sacrifice."
"Did it succeed in the end?" Su Qingxing asked knowingly.
"No, Bai Chu's younger brother and another person who participated in the blood sacrifice died, no one's soul gained eternal life, only two innocent lives disappeared in this world because of Bai Chu's few words, he is a demon. "
"Bai Chu has done many experiments on the people around him. No matter what he does, he just wants to keep himself alive, so he never cares whether the people around him are alive or dead."
"However, most people are deceived by the smile on his face. Parents still believe that Bai Chu is their proud eldest son. Classmates and teachers also believe that Bai Chu is the proud son of heaven. Only those who were killed by him For the dead, only I, the mirror image that should not exist in the world, know that this person named Bai Chu... is simply a demon in human skin, and he should have gone to hell a long time ago."
When Bai finished all this, the lights in the corridor on the third floor suddenly turned on, and their team did not know when they had reached the end of the corridor, and the stairs leading to the fourth floor were ahead.
Dodo and Xiaoxiong just felt that the person holding their hand suddenly disappeared, and the person who gave them a sense of security along the way seemed to have never existed.
The warmth of those hands gave the two children a sense of familiarity.
Except for the two children, the others screamed the moment their sight was restored, because they found that there were many ghosts like charred corpses mixed in their team and walked here with them.
Chu Bai immediately covered the eyes of the two children, made a booing gesture to everyone, and finally led everyone back step by step until they reached the stairs leading to the fourth floor.
"What a wonderful story." After making sure that the ghosts behind did not catch up, Bai Chu had a sneer on his face and clapped his hands ironically, "I'm really a heinous big devil."
"Maybe what that voice said is true." Chu Bai protected the two children by his side, and the other survivors gradually distanced themselves from Bai Chu and Niu Yong, "If this is really hell, Then you are already dead at the beginning of Bai, and the things you did to avoid death became a joke in the end."
"Don't worry, even if all of you are dead, I will still live in this world well." Every time Bai Chu took a step forward, the survivors would take a step back, cautiously as if avoiding a ghost.
However, Bai Chu didn't mind being treated like this. After all, in order to survive, he would not worry about anyone's feelings.
"Welcome to the fourth floor, everyone."
Stepping onto the corridor on the fourth floor, everyone saw Si Qing's familiar figure appearing there. After going through the long darkness and the pressure of rapid attrition, everyone seemed to have forgotten how annoying Si Qing was when he first appeared on the stage, but felt an inexplicable sense of security the moment they saw him.
It's a pity that when Si Qing saw them, he didn't feel the slightest joy. Instead, he froze there and asked dryly, "Where is Su Qingxing, why are there only seven people left in our team?"
Without everyone's attention, there was one less survivor in the team. Apart from the testers and their mirror images, there were only two nurses left behind them.
I don't know if it's because Lord Reaper on the first floor removed Si Qing's hands and feet, but this time Si Qing didn't blurt out some embarrassing names.
But facing Si Qing's question, no one knew how to answer it.
In the end, Chu Bai sighed and replied: "Sorry, there was an accident when we left, the floor of the ward collapsed, and Su Qingxing was buried in the rubble..."
"What are you talking about?" An unbelievable smile appeared on Si Qing's face, "Are you kidding me? Are Su Qingxing and that annoying guy still hiding on the third floor, ready to wait for me to turn around?" Jump out and startle me?"
"I'm sorry." Chu Bai really couldn't bear to wake up a person who pretended to be asleep, "Although with your help, you still lost a lot of friends along the way, and Su Qingxing is one of them."
"What are you kidding?!" Si Qing suddenly yelled hysterically, "Why did I go to such lengths to help you? It was to let you bring Su Qing Xing here safely!! Now you actually tell Me, you are alive and well, but Su Qingxing was left in that ward? No one even tried to save him?"
"I'm sorry, the situation at that time was really complicated, and the chance of surviving was really very small." Chu Bai could understand Si Qing's mood, "But Mr. Shen stayed there. Although he said he would catch up as soon as possible, now come It seems that he has been there to accompany Su Qingxing."
"You trash!" Si Qing couldn't listen to anything now, and he wasn't as calm as Shen Si at all. His whole spirit had collapsed, and his expression went crazy, "Why are you alive, but Su Qingxing is dead? Why? You tell me why?!"
But Su Qingxing, who was standing aside, was puzzled by this. He didn't understand why the mirror image of meditation was so obsessed with him
"Si Qing, you are clearly the mirror image of Mr. Shen, why do you care so much about Su Qingxing?" Chu Bai asked this question on behalf of Su Qingxing.
"Why? How do I know why?" Si Qing was about to go downstairs, but turned around after hearing Chu Bai's question, "I only know that from the moment I have life, only Su Qingxing is in my mind." Three words."
"My existence is for Su Qingxing."
"My everything exists for Su Qingxing."
When Si Qing uttered these two sentences, his expression was more serious than ever before, even making Su Qingxing standing there feel that the person who said these two sentences was the deity of meditation.
This kind of understanding made Su Qingxing feel strange and strange in his heart.
"Where are you going?" Seeing that Si Qing was about to go downstairs, Chu Bai immediately stopped him, "You promised that as long as I give you the blood, you will take the others to the sixth floor."
"Sorry, I don't want to play this clearance game with you anymore, because the meaning of my existence has been abandoned on the first floor." Si Qing said, and smiled wryly, "Actually, I don't understand this feeling, because I have always been interested in Su Qingxing. I don't know, I just feel that I was born because of him... Thinking about it this way, he is really like my mother."
After finishing speaking, Si Qing's figure went down the stairs and gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.
Si Qing left, but the others couldn't be swayed by their feelings, so they could only continue walking.
The fourth floor is Si Qing's base camp, and the ghosts here will not harm Chu Bai and his group, whether it is the ghost walking around in the wall, the nurse behind the guiding desk, or the four people facing the wall. The ghosts who thought about it just stayed at their jobs obediently, without looking sideways.
In addition, the lights on the fourth floor were sufficient, so the group walked through the entire corridor without any danger and arrived at the stairs leading to the fifth floor.
Walking here from the first floor, the number of people in the whole team is getting smaller and smaller. In such a situation, Chu Bai held his forehead with some grief, shook his head helplessly and said: "I really hope to have a chance to start over, maybe I just So many people will not miss out on leaving."
"You're just a mortal, you can't even be considered a human being." All the details of Bai Chu had been stripped away, so he stared at Chu Bai with undisguised disgust, "Every time I see you hypocritical The facial expression makes me, the deity, feel..."
When Bai Chu said this, he didn't continue, because he didn't plan to leave the team yet.
"Anyway, Mr. Madonna, we are going to the fifth floor soon, get your blood ready." The main reason why Bai Chu never parted ways with the whole team was that he hoped to use the blood of the mirror image to reach the sixth floor smoothly. .
If the person with the ability to exorcise ghosts was Bai Chu himself, he might not have walked with the mirror image of Chu Bai from the very beginning.
After all, the existence of Chu Bai will only make Bai Chu feel unbearable.
However, when everyone stepped onto the fifth floor, they found that it was completely different from what they had imagined. What appeared in front of everyone was not a corridor, not even a ghost!
What they saw was a square room, and there seemed to be a door leading to the next room.
Just now, Su Qingxing reorganized the fifth floor in the fastest time. With the first white blood, it is not impossible to clear the original fifth floor.
But Su Qingxing wanted to make the whole trial more thorough.
"Welcome to the fifth floor." Su Qingxing once again pretended to have that old and indifferent voice, "From now on, only those who have successfully passed the three checkpoints will be able to reach the sixth floor."
"What are we going to do?" Chu Bai asked directly.
"Choice." Su Qingxing also said very succinctly, "From now on, unless a miracle happens, between the deity and the mirror image... only one person can pass the level."
As soon as Su Qingxing finished speaking, three translucent souls appeared in a room. They were the mirror image of Niu Yong who had died, and the two survivors who died in the blood bank.
"Then the first trial starts now. When this trial is over, the door to the second trial will open. Good luck to everyone." Su Qingxing's voice disappeared, but he still followed the team , watching it all.
"Niu Yong." The dead man in the mirror stared at Niu Yong who was hiding at the back, "You will pay for your life, you can't escape."
