"The incident happened so suddenly that we didn't have time to hold her back..." Zhang Lifeng recounted with lingering fears. "After she jumped into the fire, the fire suddenly exploded, covering her whole body. We didn't Fa reached in and pulled her out...she, she just...she just gave...burned to death..."
"It's really too sudden," Wei Dong sighed, "Is there no warning?"
The three newcomers looked at each other for a while and shook their heads: "She was normal before, and she complained to us about how strange the world in this painting is. It doesn't seem like she was influenced by something."
The old members also watched each other for a while, and Mu Yiran asked Qin Ci, "Which cartoon has the plot of throwing fire?"
Qin Ci pondered for a long time, and finally shook his head: "I really can't remember which cartoon is like this."
Mu Yiran looked at Ke Xun again. Ke Xun received her boyfriend's gaze and thought that she couldn't let him down. It's rare that her boyfriend is so cute because he doesn't know anything about cartoons. He is his boyfriend's boyfriend. , must assume the role and role of the boyfriend in the team at ordinary times.
Not caring about the cat's tail growing out of the back of his butt, Ke Xun activated all his brain cells and tried his best to recall the cartoons he had watched since he was a child.
Mu Yiran didn't bother him to think, just took out his phone and checked the time.
It was already more than nine o'clock in the evening. Except for Zhao Haicui, who died, all the members had already returned to this initial room.
According to the law of people dying every night in the painting, I don't know who and how these people will die tonight.
"At present, we have identified four of the six worlds that the six doors lead to," Mu Yiran lowered his voice slightly so as not to disturb Ke Xun's thoughts, "Among them, Dr. Qin corresponds to the fishing boy. In this world, Ke Xun corresponds to Tiger Learning, Wei Dong corresponds to Ma Liang, and Ge Lei corresponds to Sheriff Black Cat.
"In addition, Ke Xun also discovered a hidden world, which is Haowen's corresponding good cat.
"The remaining two doors, one leads to the world with sea and city, and the other leads to the world where Zhao Haicui throws fire.
"Our next task is to figure out as soon as possible which two cartoons the world behind these two doors belongs to, and the other is to continue to find ways to discover the hidden world.
"The first task, we can only wait until tomorrow to complete it during the day, and now the focus is on the second task.
"According to Ke Xun's description of the process of discovering the hidden world, it can be roughly determined that to trigger the hidden world, we need to use the characters or clues in the cartoon. On the surface, the characters and clues do not seem to be directly related to the ending, but they also It is likely that the hidden world can only be triggered by the characters in it after advancing the cartoon to the end.
"Then we can now sort out the important characters or clues in the confirmed cartoons that may become the conditions for triggering the hidden world.
"Weidong has already advanced Ma Liang's world to the end of the story, so let's sort out the clues of this world first."
Looking at Wei Dong.
Wei Dong hurriedly said: "Ke Er and I originally thought that by drawing a door with the magic brush in my hand, we could lead to the hidden world, but after I went back to this world and tried it, there was no way to lead to another world. a world."
Mu Yiran asked, "Are there any important characters other than the protagonist and villain in Ma Liang's story?"
Wei Dong thought for a while: "Does the fairy old man who gave Ma Liang's magic pen count?"
Qin Ci said: "That old fairy appeared only once from the beginning to the end, even if Ma Liang encountered difficulties later, he never appeared again, and you have advanced the story to the end, I am afraid there is no way to find this old fairy again. ."
"This... co-authoring and I pushed the story to the end, but it was wrong?" Wei Dong was depressed.
"Not necessarily," Qin Ci comforted, "Ke Xun also pushed the story to the end, and only discovered the conditions that triggered the hidden world. Think carefully, don't miss any possibility."
"What about the fishing boy?" Zhu Haowen asked Qin Ci.
"I punished the evil officials and foreigners in the cartoon according to the plot of the cartoon," Qin Ci said, "I searched for a while, but didn't find any clues. Of course, at that time, I didn't know that Ke Xun used this method to trigger the trigger. Hidden world, think about it now, the more important characters or clues may be the basin of the fisherman. The ending in the cartoon is that the fisherman has returned to the bottom of the basin again, maybe I should…”
"Don't," Wei Dong waved his hands hastily, "what if you go back to the bottom of your pelvis, what if you can't change back?"
"Maybe there is such a possibility." Zhu Haowen said expressionlessly.
"This is indeed a dilemma." Qin Ci frowned slightly.
"According to the process of Ke Xun's triggering of the hidden world," Mu Yiran, who didn't speak for a long time, suddenly said, "Tiger Xueyi and Good Pussy both have the character of a cat in the two cartoons, but in Tiger Xueyi, the character is a cat. A cat is exactly the condition that triggers the hidden world, so can we think that other hidden worlds are also triggered by the same pattern."
When everyone heard the words, they were stunned, Zhu Haowen said: "So what we need to look for may be the common characters in every cartoon, such as the mouse in the good cat and the ear in the black cat sheriff. "
"That's right!" Wei Dong clapped his hands, "Then let me think about what animals are in Ma Liang's magic brush—Ma Liang painted a chicken, a sheep, a cow, chicken, sheep and cow! Think about it, Which cartoon still has chickens, sheep and cows?"
Everyone was lost in thought, and when they were retrieving the memory in their minds, Ke Xun suddenly clapped his hands: "'Huotong' meow! I remembered, the main character of the cartoon Huotong turned into a big fireball, Zhao Haicui. Is the corresponding cartoon this meow?"
He kept thinking about the question that Mu Yiran didn't get an answer to just now.
Qin Ci said "Oh" with understanding: "It's very possible, thanks to you still remembering such an old cartoon, I have almost no impression."
Ke Xun scratched the cat's ears on his head: "The reason why I still remember this cartoon is that it is really one of the shadows of childhood! Meow! The protagonist's appearance after turning into a fireball is super cool. Weird meow."
"Then it seems that Zhao Haicui's corresponding world is Fire Boy." Qin Ci looked at Ke Xun and then at Mu Yiran.
But Mu Yiran also looked at Ke Xun: "What is the protagonist of Huotong?"
"What is it?... Meow, of course it's a human." Ke Xun tilted his head and looked at him curiously, the cat behind his butt flicked its tail.
Mu Yiran's fingers that had been in his trouser pocket moved slightly, but his face was still indifferent and calm: "And Zhao Haicui is wearing a rabbit headdress, if you take your example, wearing a cat headdress will change the If it's a cat, then Zhao Haicui should be a rabbit."
"Hey, that makes sense, meow!" Ke Xun widened his eyes and tilted his head to think for a while, "That's right, I'm sure that the protagonist of Huotong is Ren Miao, and this cartoon seems to tell the story of ethnic minorities. Meow."
Mu Yiran turned his head and asked the three newcomers, "Did Zhao Haicui change his posture or language when he was with you?"
The three looked at each other for a while and shook their heads. Zhang Lifeng said with a bad expression, "We were all in a panic at the time, and we all got separated at first, and only found each other later. After we met, we were anxious to find them back. Road, the weather was cold, we panicked and scared after getting lost, and it was not until we entered the cave where the fire was burning that we calmed down a little, but because there was a strange old man in the cave, we were all a little scared, and we couldn’t pay attention to the careful observation. Other…”
Wei Miao, who was wearing the dragon horn headdress, suddenly said hesitantly, "I don't know if it's my illusion. The moment Sister Hai Cui jumped into the fire, I seemed to see her shadow cast by the fire on the cave wall. , like a... rabbit..."
"Also," Qin Ci said, "the protagonist of the fire boy story did not jump into the fire, but after swallowing the fire, he became a fireball."
"Meow, in this way, Zhao Haicui's corresponding world is not a fire boy, meow." Ke Xun slapped his tail.
"What is the fire in Huotong?" Mu Yiran asked Ke Xun again.
"Just... is it called a fire seed or a fire bead, meow? I don't know what that is, meow meow." Ke Xun wagged his tail.
The last "meow" was really cute. Mu Yiran took out his hand from his trouser pocket and pinched the tip of Ke Xun's tail lightly with two fingers.
Ke Xun looked at him with wide wet eyes.
But Mu Yiran didn't look at him again, his fingertips fiddled with the fleshy, hot and fluffy tail indistinctly, on the surface he still looked like a stern, solitary and graceful big man, his eyes fell on Qin Ci: "" What is the style of the cartoon "Fire Boy"?"
Qin Ci thought for a while: "It also seems to be a paper-cut style animation."
"Where's Hailibu?" Mu Yiran continued to ask in a low voice.
"Hailibu is the most common kind of animation." Qin Ci said.
Mu Yi Ran's calm eyes swept across the faces of everyone, and then said in a deep voice: "Now I can roughly determine a problem: the magic pen Ma Liang is a puppet animation, the fisherman and the fire boy are paper-cut animations, the tiger learning art, Good cat, black cat sheriff, and Hailibu are the most common animation styles.
"Wei Dong corresponds to the magic pen Ma Liang. When he did not enter his corresponding world, his body mutated, and the way of the mutation was to gradually transform into a puppet figure in the style of the magic pen Ma Liang.
"Ke Xun, Haowen, Zhao Haicui, I correspond to the animation world of common styles, so there is no style variation towards the animation style like Wei Dong, but directly towards the characters in the animation, the characters are animals. , it will gradually become an animal, the character is human, and it will take over the fate of the character.
"Then can we infer from this that the puppetization of Qi Qiang and Huangpi is because the world they correspond to is also a puppet-style cartoon
"And Luo Wei's paper-based mutation, is it because the world he corresponds to is also a paper-cut style cartoon? For example..."Hot Boy"?"
Everyone was shocked and pondered by Mu Yiran's inference, but Ke Xun let out a "meow" and twisted his tail in Mu Yiran's hand: "That's right! It's Huo Boy Meow! Luo Wei got it. Isn't the prop for the red round stone meow? Maybe this is the so-called fireball meow in the cartoon!"
"Guys..." Wei Dong's trembling voice suddenly sounded, "it will be eleven o'clock in five minutes..."
Eleven o'clock. This time, will death come to randomly select people in the initial room, or will... once again enter the cruel process of voting for the dead
