I Wasn’t Born Lucky

Chapter 224

Views:

Xiao Li didn't know what Fu Zige had done. When he came back, he saw that the KTV ghost returned to the microphone with three points of joy and seven points of panic, and put the round microphone head of the microphone on the sofa. The cushions on the top cover, leaving only a microphone butt out.

Xiao Li had just returned from the veterinary hospital at that time, he accompanied Shen Mizhi to pick up the little white cat, and stopped by his house to place the kitten.

Although the little white cat reluctantly hooked him with his claws when he was leaving, and Shen Mizhi also asked him to stay down, Xiao Li still held himself.

He looked at the TV that was turned off, reached out and poked the end of the KTV ghost's microphone, and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

Fu Zige hummed and twisted his body: "It's okay."

Xiao Li turned around and asked Sintian who stayed at home: "Did it go out?"

[Maybe I was eliminated from participating in the poetry recitation contest.]Sin Tian still resents Fu Zige and reads the plots of his novel, yin and yang are strange and authentic.

Xiao Li: "..."

Tan Li and Zhou Ying went out with him, and the little black cat had to follow him to monitor him. There were only two realistic ghosts and Xiu Ji left at home. However, unfortunately, Xiu Ji took the stickman out for a visit. It is said that she went to watch a real art exhibition and was not at home. If Fu Zige refused to speak, Xiao Li did not know what she did when she went out.

But soon, when the next episode of "I Am the King of Singers" was broadcast, Xiao Li knew what it was doing—

For no other reason, the program group made this a publicity.

That night, Xiao Li ordered a takeaway for supper, sat at home aimlessly playing the TV, and spread out the finished homework on the coffee table in front of him.

Fu Zige lay on his side beside the boy, with the microphone head half-dead on the balcony.

Tonight is the broadcast time of "I Am the King of Singers", and Xiao Li specially tuned to the channel that broadcasts this show.

As soon as the time came, the preview of the program was first issued during the commercial time.

I saw an eye-catching advertisement on the TV screen:

"Sudden supernatural event, in the recording room where the submissions were screened, the staff actually saw a grimace? ! 》

"A tape that you have to listen to even grimace, what kind of fairy song is it? ! Don't leave, the wonderful show will be broadcast soon! 》

Behind this slogan, there is a photo of a young staff member who fell to the ground and pointed his finger at the vent at the top of the ceiling, which was taken by his companion.

The face of the staff member and the air vent were mosaic, but the white shadow of the air vent could be vaguely seen, because it stretched its neck because of the body movements of eating it, as if it was almost scared under the observation. Dizzy youth.

Xiao Li can also guess who this so-called grimace is without looking at it.

Xiao Li: "..."

Fu Zige looked at himself on the TV screen and weakly defended himself: "I just want to thank him and praise my song."

Who knew that Ale was so unscared.

Frightened "Bole" alive, Fu Zige himself was also very uncomfortable.

Before Xiao Li spoke, the manuscript placed on the napkin box had already displayed: [Why are you not counting B in your heart now?]

[The cannon fodder in my update tonight is you.] Sintian retaliates decisively.

Fu Zige: "Hehe, do you want to be read again?"

"I haven't read the first kiss scene of your hero and heroine-"

Seeing that the two of them were going to fight each other in their own way, Xiao Li patted Fu Zige and paused their struggle with one sentence: "The show has begun."

Concerning himself, Fu Zige immediately turned the gun and watched the show with all his attention.

In the past, "I Am the King of Songs" would have been the selection and performance of civilian players from the beginning. However, this episode is different. The program team seems to have enough thoughts to use "supernatural events in the recording room" as a gimmick to promote the show. Since the show started, the first one to appear was the Mosaic interview with the staff in the recording room at that time.

A woman with mosaic eyes appeared on the screen: "I didn't see the haunted scene with my own eyes, it was my colleague who saw it. At that time, we were discussing an original song by an amateur, which was very flavorful, my colleague As soon as I sat up to leave, this ghost appeared."

Then the colleague, the young man, said, "I'm much better. Thank you to the program team for giving me a few days off. I also went to the temple to burn incense to exorcise evil spirits."

"What happened that day was the most terrifying picture I've ever seen in my life. I just stood up and wanted to go outside, and when I looked up, I caught a glimpse of that face."

"At that time, I was so frightened that I just thought it was going to attack me, but our recording room was clean and nothing like this ever happened, not even rumors."

"Later, I thought about it myself. The white shadow in the ventilation duct showed signs of looking inside. I wondered if it was attracted by that song?"

This is the end of the interview with the staff of the program team, and the slogan will be displayed on the screen again later:

"A mysterious song that attracts even ghosts! An anonymous singer, with a hoarse voice, but with a different kind of charm. 》

"The editor did not close his eyes for three nights before he cut out this special program. Is the program good? The editor's hair changed! 》

"Next, please enjoy this song, it comes from the submission mailbox, but the contributor refused to accept our interview and invitation. 》

The TV screen turned and was recorded to the scene. Hundreds of spectators sat under the stage. There was a microphone on the stage. No one stood on the stage. .

The program began to play Fu Zige's recording, and the man's hoarse voice filled everyone's ears.

Xiao Li: "..."

He knew very well that Fu Zige's song was really good, but not to such an exaggerated level. It was obvious that the program team had gone out of their way to save the declining ratings, and even this kind of thing was used as a gimmick.

Xiao Li thought for a while, and said to the microphone beside him, "Thinking about it on the bright side, at least your songs appeared on TV shows."

It seems that Fu Zige doesn't mind being hyped like this, it's much better than the previous few days, and he said happily: "I thought it scared him, but it's quite uncomfortable, but now it's good to see that he's still in good spirits. already."

When Fu Zige was originally a resident singer in a bar, his biggest wish was to make his songs heard by others. Now that he has succeeded in getting his wish, he is eagerly waiting for the comments from the judges.

And the judges did not live up to expectations, perhaps because the program team had mentioned the script, a famous male singer headed with his back to the stage and said: "The voice is simple and the singing has a touching power, this singer must have a lot of experience. "

Another soprano singer also said: "Yes, what Instructor Wu said is good, although there are inherent flaws and the high pitch can't be sung well, the emotion inside is very sincere, at least when I listen to it, I will want to understand the urge of this singer's experience. ."

Fu Zige watched eagerly, engrossed in it, wishing that he could directly traverse his eyes to the screen, and deeply remember these comments in his mind.

Sintian went offline a long time ago to write today's update, and wrote Fu Zige into the novel to be violent. Xiao Li patiently accompanied Fu Zige to watch it for a while, and lowered his head to reply to Shen Mizhi's news.

Shen Mizhi sent a photo of a little white cat.

The little white cat inside has adapted to the new home, frowning at the cat's milk cake in front of him, and swooping at the tiger to eat, but the legs are still tied with straps, which makes its movements slower, and can only use Front paws flutter.

Xiao Li praised: [Adapted.]

Shen Mizhi: [Well, but it misses you very much.]

Xiao Li: [I will go to see it when I have time.]

"… Thank you."

When Xiao Li heard this inaudible thank you, he raised his head from the phone and curved the corners of his lips: "No thanks."

Since there was no dungeon for too long, even Xiao Li went to the forum and found that not only himself, but almost all of the reincarnator dungeons had stretched the gaps and stayed in the real world for too long.

In addition to what happened in China, there are also detailed forums abroad to sort out. The most famous one is the hallucinogenic incident of the Banana Country group, which is said to have happened in a residential area. Bewitching their voices, even a few senior foreign reincarnations were included.

The posts in the forum are full of imposing momentum, various inquiries about what happened, and posts that reveal part of the situation one after another, the protection and supply items have been sold out in the mall, and some items have been fired in the black market. First-tier city house money.

While Xiao Li was taking turns sorting out the commonalities of various supernatural events in reality, he was pulled into the next instance.

After the initial shaking subsided, when Xiao Li opened his eyes again, he found himself standing in front of a tourist bus.

It's not the kind of tattered poor mountain ditch bus. The bus in front of him is luxurious in appearance. It has been scrubbed clean and spotless. The soft cloth is mainly in gold, white and red, and it looks very expensive.

In the distance, the sun sets in the west, the setting sun is like blood, shrouded in the sky, it is dusk.

A group of people stood in front of the bus, centered on a middle-aged man with gray hair, wearing a typical Chinese tunic suit and a dark blue hat with a broad brim, holding a stack of A4 paper in his hand, facing the Pointing fingers at the person next to him.

Apart from the group of people surrounding the middle-aged man, Xiao Li looked around and found a few familiar faces—not to mention Shen Mizhi, he pestered Xiao Li to sign the team symbol; There are two old teammates, Ye Zeqing and Zheng Yi; Wang Huai; a dark-skinned foreign girl with a bumpy figure and long hair pinned to the back of her head with pure gold accessories; a young Asian with a warm temperament; two An older mature man.

Including Xiao Li, they were all looking around.

Compared with the others, Ye Zeqing and Zheng Yi were already familiar with them, so they came over and said hello to Xiao Li.

Ye Zeqing: "Moriarty."

Zheng Yi: "Sherlock."

Exported almost at the same time.

They looked at each other, but no one was willing to back down easily.

Xiao Li: "...Forget it, you still call me Hercule."

The strangers over there also tend to lean over to form a circle and introduce themselves for the first time.

"—Okay, contestants, please come over." A smooth voice interrupted the reincarnations before their greetings began.

It was a short and stout man with a bulging belly like a ball, which was very joyful. A horizontal line was sprayed with black paint on the back of his hand, and he was waiting for everyone to come with his right hand.

calling them

Xiao Li and the others walked over, only to hear the fat man clutching his stomach, mobilizing loudly in a cadence: "Welcome to the 'Fate Bet Variety Show'! All the contestants have been carefully screened by the column team and have passed through many hurdles. I was able to be selected and stand on the stage of this column group with the highest ratings in the universe!"

"Such an opportunity does not come easily, and I hope you will cherish it."

"First of all, each of you must be equipped with a micro pinhole camera, carry it with you, cannot be turned off, and cannot be removed. After entering the designated location, it will broadcast your behavior 24 hours a day."

"Remember, your actions will be broadcast live. The audience can see your words and deeds. There will be their barrages in the broadcast room, and you can view them twice a day."

"This is a special communicator made by the program team. It is used to connect to the live broadcast room. It does not have other functions such as calls. It is only for you to respond to the barrage and please our audience."

"Next, please take this big bus by my side, it will take you to the designated place, and you will receive an envelope, which will be the goal you must achieve in this show."

At first glance, the fat man was a good man at smoothing his mouth. He said so many words in one breath, but he didn't say anything wrong. Holding the microphone, he was very emotional, and his pronunciation was very clear.

The cameraman in the program group held up the camera and took a 360-degree panoramic shot of the fat man and the players.

While Fatty was talking, a staff member came over and distributed so-called pinhole cameras and communicators to everyone one by one.

The communicator is a mobile phone-shaped tablet, and the brooch is designed as a brooch, in the shape of an ouroboros, and it is carved to life. This brooch alone is like a work of art in the outside world.

Xiao Li took the brooch and pinned it on his chest.

"Hmm, did I forget something?"

"Oh yes, then of course there is the most important sentence—"

The fat man was about to leave, but suddenly backed away, showing a standard toothy smile at the cameraman beside him carrying the camera: "Thank you for your strong support for this show, thank you for death, despair, screaming, and fear for this The sponsorship of the program is in no particular order.”

"Next, please tune in - The Beginning of the Gamble."

His smile revealed eight teeth, each of which was extremely white, but what he said made the reincarnators look at each other.

Death, despair, screaming, fear.

If the previous reminders are still a normal variety show process, but this acknowledgment can lift the veil of flesh and blood under the warm skin of the show team.

The woman with the golden jewelry originally wanted to stop the fat man, but before he took two steps, the fat man disappeared. At the same time, the staff who gave them the brooch smiled and said, "Please get in the car."

"Excuse me, can you tell me the specific destination here?" Zheng Yi leaned over and asked boldly when he saw that the staff was normal.

"Please get in the car." The staff member repeated his words with the same smile.

Zheng Yi: "Can't this be revealed?"

Staff: "Please get in the car."

No matter how Zheng Yi asked, the staff kept a smile with the same curvature and repeated the same sentence. Their smiles were the same as those of the fat man, as if they had done some special training, and there was no individual difference.

Zheng Yi was a little creepy.

Xiao Li passed him: "Let's go."

He took the lead on the tourist bus parked next to him, and chose a position on the top floor of the convertible by the window, followed by Shen Mizhi, who sat beside him.

Zheng Yi and Ye Zeqing chose to sit in the back and the front respectively, Wang Huai sat opposite Xiao Li, and the foreign girl and the Asian youth chose to sit together on the top floor of the convertible, while the two men who were obviously familiar Then choose a safer bottom car.

After everyone got into the car, the driver closed the door and the car started to move forward slowly.

The driver also came safely from the show team. He was a tall, strong, ordinary-looking man. He stepped on the accelerator and drove forward.

From the rearview mirror, you can see that the staff have been standing there, watching the vehicles leave, with the same smile on their faces, but the fat man who is the commentator is missing.

On the top floor of the hood, the woman with the golden ornaments was the first to speak: "Let's get to know you, we will always cooperate in the future, I'm Setamon."

She has used the translation prop, which automatically translates the languages spoken by both parties.

The Asian youth smiled slightly: "Park Xisun."

Zheng Yi and others also reported their names one by one.

Setamon: "I skip the compliments like 'It turns out to be you'. I've heard everyone here. I'm a more direct person, so I'll tell you what I see first."

She held up her task book: "At present, the task book has not released the tasks and introductions here. Maybe it is the same as this so-called program group, and it will be released after reaching the designated destination."

She has a small face, a pointed chin, high heels, and is very capable in her speech.

Ye Zeqing: "Where will the destination be?"

The speed of the convertible car is very fast. Just looking at the scenery outside, it seems that this is a road that has just been repaired in a remote suburban village.

The bitter wind blew through everyone's hair and rustled in their ears.

Xiao Li squinted his eyes, but he didn't speak much. A coat on the right covered him, with a faint sense of ice and snow, which he recognized as the smell of the youth.

He grabbed the edge of his jacket with his hands.

Shen Mizhi said, "Cover up, don't you feel cold?"

At this moment, the open top suddenly started to operate, with a "hum" sound, like a giant black dandelion, wrapping the roof of the car, blocking the wilder wind.

Wrapped in this black leather, the outside scenery became blurred, and the bus drove into the night.

Shen Mizhi's cold voice sounded in Xiao Li's ears: "Sleep for a while."

Meanwhile, two men inside the bus.

They kept looking out the window and didn't speak. At the end, one of the men who was a little taller said, "I can't see the outside world clearly."

The other person never spoke up.

The person who spoke first: "Wait a minute."

The bus drove for a long, long time, and most of the time was dark, and no one could see what was outside the window. Just when Zheng Yi couldn't help complaining about the pain all over his body, the bus finally stopped.

"Please get off."

The driver spoke through the loudspeaker, and he opened the door: "Before getting off the car, please collect your mission card from the lottery box behind the door."

The two men sitting on the lower deck of the bus were close to the water tower.

The shell of the lottery box is ordinary, and it is tightly wrapped, leaving only a hole large enough to accommodate a hand.

The tall man who spoke first smoothly took out a golden envelope, which was sealed with dark red paint.

Just as the other person was about to reach in, the driver said, "There is only one task card, and your tasks are the same."

Even with this prompt, he still did not withdraw his hand, but fumbled around inside to confirm that there were no other cards before he stopped.

Several people at the top of the convertible also got out of the car one after another.

The last time Xiao Li came down, he didn't intend to sleep, but he closed his eyes unconsciously, and when he woke up, he found that he was not leaning against the window, but resting on Shen Mizhi's shoulder.

He rubbed the red mark on his face and jumped out of the car.

Almost as soon as the last person got out of the car, the driver immediately stepped on the accelerator and left the destination. The speed was urgent, as if something was chasing him behind him.

This so-called destination is a completely different complex from the previous one.

It looks more like an exquisite museum or artwork, like a scale, with a tray on the left and right sides.

The man holding the mission card tore open the envelope after a brief observation and took out the card inside.

The card face is very simple, it is a piece of white paper with only a few words written on it: [Welcome to the Judgment Prison, your mission: escape.]

[Successful winners can get all the prizes of this variety show, boo, are you curious about the prizes? You'll have to wait until you win.]

There is also a sentence on the back of the card: [Failure? To fail is to die.]

The word "dead" is depicted in bold and large.

Just as everyone finished reading the quest card, the quest book also trembled, Xiao Li looked at Xiao Huang Ben:

[Remaining safe time: zero.]

[You have entered the Judgment Prison No. 010.]

[All sins end here.]

[This mission: jailbreak, you can return to reality after completion.]

[This mission has been authorized by the adjudication court, and will enter the trial process next.]

Compared with the previous bunch of introductions to the dungeon world, this time Xiao Huang can be said to be very concise, not much ink.

Zheng Yi said: "This is... a prison? A cage?"

The appearance of the building in front of me has nothing to do with these words.

Xiao Li looked at the place where the bus disappeared, but saw that a suspension bridge had been stretched out there, completely isolating the connection with the outside world.

"The trial procedure, how is the trial?" Pu Xisun said in a twisted tone.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a line of words under his task book, followed by a Libra symbol.

[In the ruling, the trial charge: laziness.]

[Convicted.]

[10 years in captivity, number 23023.]

Pu Xisun said stunned: "Ten years, I haven't been so lazy, have I?"

"Is this judgment based on the seven deadly sins?" Setamon said to himself, "Will this be too general, or the arrangement of the show team..."

And Xiao Li looked at himself, Xiao Huangben said: [In the verdict, the trial charge: arrogance.]

[Convicted.]

[Life in captivity, number 23024.]

Below this sentence, there is also a sentence that Xiao Huangben played by himself: […by me.]

Xiao Li: ? ?

He subconsciously raised his head and looked at Shen Mizhi beside him.

The young man noticed his gaze, he didn't show his empty mission book, leaned over and said in his ear: "I love you too much.]

The punishment is life imprisonment.

Xiao Li: "..."

Xiao Li: "Lust?"

Shen Mizhi smiled and denied: "Greed."

Wang Huai said lazily, "I was a glutton and was imprisoned for five years."

He feels better about himself.

Ye Zeqing: "Lazy, imprisoned for fifty years."

His face is green, is he that lazy? Isn't it because Ye Lingshi was lazy when he told him to study the art of ghosts, why did he take so long

Zheng Yi: "I was also a glutton, and I was imprisoned for fifteen years."

Setamon: "Jealous, ten years in captivity."

The remaining two men only said their names at this time, and the tall man said, "Magic Flute, ten years."

One person left: "Moss, ninety years."

Xiao Li took a second look at this man.

The two did not say their guilt, and only said the time, out of place.

In front of this building, waves like water surged up in the sky, turning into a CG in the title.

The first shot showed a long-haired woman, who was very beautiful, with meticulous makeup and a long skirt that perfectly framed her waist.

She held a brooch similar to everyone else's in her hand, and complained coquettishly to the people around her: "What a shit show, the assistants can't bring them, and they have to take the bus so far to come here, really, it's so good , what a prison, it's absolutely amazing."

"My aunt, Miss Lian Susu, don't do this when the camera is on. Remember to play it for me after the camera is turned on. No matter if you can escape successfully or not, show me the way the audience likes." She stood beside her. The agent in charge hurriedly asked, "Look next to her, she's even here, this is the hottest variety show right now."

Lian Susu glanced at the person surrounded by the crowd on the other side, and snorted: "Don't worry, I still know about it, forget it, hurry up, the filming will end sooner than later."

She said that she put the brooch to her chest, and when she stood up again, her voice was impeccable, and she said to the man in the center: "Director, let's get in the car quickly. It's so late, I won't delay everyone going home. ."

The director said: "Okay, Miss Lian is really considerate, thank you."

"Is there anything to be thankful for?" Lian Susu covered her mouth with a smile, "I will definitely try my best to cooperate, I'm going up, everyone has worked hard."

When the picture turned here, Lian Susu and another female star stood together in front of the building. They competed with each other, and Lian Susu walked in first.

The title CG ends here. At the moment when the picture disappears, the gate of the building in front slowly opens from the inside, waiting for everyone to enter.

But no one came out to greet him.

Setamon speculated: "They should be the first batch of our variety show contestants, and they have already entered here."

"Go first." Wang Huai said.

Inside the building to everyone's surprise, no one stood at the door to "welcome" them, and there was no trace of any living thing left.

There are no reasonable guards or security guards to handle the door, and no staff of the show team to respond inside, only the bright light above the head, the quiet here is like a cemetery.

At first, it was a single-person passage, only for one person to enter and exit, and everyone lined up to go inside.

The door behind him closed quietly without making any sound. It didn't have a door lock. From the inside, the door and the wall were completely natural, there was no door lock, and the door gap was pitifully small. It looked like an intact wall. , as if the door did not exist at all.

At the end of the passage, there are four forks.

The lights dimmed from the fork.

At this time, a harsh broadcast sound suddenly sounded in the channel: "Please note, there are still five minutes, and the lights-off time is about to enter. Please enter the corresponding room according to the number as soon as possible, repeat, and there are five minutes to enter the lights-off time."

Enter the corresponding room according to the number.

Ye Zeqing pointed to the [No. 23000-24000] sprayed on the wall on the far right fork: "Here."

"Go first, our serial number is the same batch."

After everyone entered this fork, they found that they went inside and there were layers of rooms. Each room was about the size of a single room, with basic living facilities such as beds and washbasins inside. Write the corresponding number.

Going deeper, they discovered that there are not only one floor, but there are countless layers, and there is no end to the bottom, the middle is hollowed out, and there is a platform when looking deeper.

Not all of these rooms were occupied, most of them were empty, and only a few were occupied.

Guang Xiaoli walked all the way to his own room with the corresponding number, and saw only three people along the way, without Lian Susu in the opening CG.

The three occupied rooms are quite far apart. The first one is a young man who is described as haggard. He is well-mannered and young, but he is very sloppy. He seems to have not been cleaned for a long time.

The second is a woman, she is straight, sitting very upright, looking at the reincarnators like a scrutiny.

The third man was a silent man. He was sober, leaning on the railing and smiling at Xiao Li: "New here, hurry in, the lights are going out, cherish your first night."

This person can communicate.

Xiao Li stopped in front of this man's room and tentatively bent over and said, "When did you come in?"

"Ha" said the man, "It's none of your business."

He raised a finger and pointed to the sky: "The time to turn off the lights is coming. If you want to die, just keep standing outside like this."

The broadcast prompt sounded just right: "Please note, there are still three minutes, and the lights are about to be turned off. Please enter the corresponding room according to the number as soon as possible."

Shen Mizhi: "Come in."

He had already opened the door for Xiao Li, stood inside, and reached out to him.

Xiao Li hesitated for a moment, but still walked in. Except for him, the rest of the reincarnations did not have the idea of breaking the taboo on the first day they came in, so they all chose to walk into their room.

It was a single room, but the soundproofing was poor, and he could even hear the sound of the next door moving.

Three minutes later, the overhead lights were instantly annihilated, and darkness descended.
