"Judging from the cartoons that have been identified and the corresponding props obtained, the props that correspond to the paper-cut style cartoons are the most important symbols in the film." Luo Wei pointed to himself With the red round stone in his hand and the fishing rod given by Qin, he continued to speak.

"People who correspond to ordinary cartoons are divided into three categories. One type of people gets body organs, such as cat ears, rabbit ears and dragon horns. Those who hold such props are themselves in this cartoon. , animal characters with these organs,

"The second type of people get external things related to the body, such as cat whiskers, such as clothes, and people who hold such props are not the main characters in the cartoon it corresponds to, but they are related to the cartoon. A character that has an important relationship with the protagonist.

"For example, Mr. Zhu is a mouse among good cats. For example, Mr. Ge, although I don't know which role he plays in the black cat sheriff, I think he must not be a role model, but has an important role with the black cat sheriff. intersecting roles.

"The third category is people who get certain items and props. For example, Yaqing got a copper chisel pot, this Mr. Zhang Lifeng got two longan cores, and now only the two of them can't be sure that the corresponding ones are Which cartoon.

"But if we look at the role of the props held by the first two types of people in the cartoon, can we think that these two props play a vital role in the main plot in their corresponding cartoon? , or have a close relationship with the main characters, or these two props are definitely not only used as backgrounds in the animation, but very existential things.

"If this is the premise, if we look for these cartoons whose names are listed, can we narrow down the choices to the greatest extent? I wonder if Mr. Mu agrees with my speculation?"

There was a rare trace of admiration in Mu Yiran's eyes, but his voice was as cold as ever: "I agree with your point of view."

"As expected of a man in science and engineering," Ke Xun twitched his tail and rolled up Mu Yiran's trouser legs, "The ability to analyze and generalize problems is not something to cover, according to your speculation, we can try to use the exclusion method to solve the problem. The cartoons that obviously do not meet the conditions will be removed, and the rest will be discussed at the end."

"You'd better hurry up, time waits for no one." Zhu Haowen reminded faintly beside him.

After Qin Ci wrote the name of his corresponding cartoon on the paper in the box, he rushed over to help Li Yaqing and Zhang Lifeng study their corresponding cartoon together with Ke Xun.

Since the attribute points of Zhang Lifeng's two longan cores are more ambiguous, let's start with the relatively easier props in Li Yaqing's hands.

Ke Xun and Qin Ci first selected all the cartoons with ancient backgrounds, and then crossed out the cartoons that were sure not to include things like chisel flower copper pots, and then carefully recalled the plot step by step in the remaining cartoon titles.

Time is very tight. According to the previous practice, at eleven o'clock at night, all the entrants can no longer leave the limited area of the painting. Once they leave the area or do not return to the area, they will all die or be randomly selected to die.

At twelve o'clock at night, it is usually the time when the official death rule starts.

There is not much time until midnight now, everyone is very nervous, and everyone's eyes are focused on the faces of Ke Xun and Qin Ci who are concentrating on thinking, as if these two people are in a fight to save others surgery.

"I think it should be this cartoon, meow," Ke Xun raised his head and pointed to a line of words on the paper for Luo Wei and Li Yaqing to read, "'Book from the Sky' is more likely than other cartoons. A meow."

"Is there a copper chisel pot in "Books from the Sky"?" Wei Dong recalled forcefully.

Most of the other people present also made the same expressions of falling into memory. This cartoon is too classic, and many people have seen it.

"There's a cornucopia in there, meow," Ke Xun reminded everyone, "What impressed me most was that the county magistrate's father fell into the basin, and a bunch of old men jumped out, shouting that I'm his father, I'm his father, then This episode made me laugh to death."

"Just write this," Rowe said to his girlfriend.

Li Yaqing had no masters, and her boyfriend did what he said, and wrote the words "Tianshu Qi Tan" on the paper with trembling hands.

The next step is to help Zhang Lifeng screen cartoons, but the prop attributes of the two longan cores are too vague. Even if Luo Wei's method and exclusion method are used together, it is still impossible to delineate the scope.

Time passed by minute by minute. Seeing that it was only three minutes before midnight, Qin Ci shook his head gently, as if announcing that the rescue was invalid.

Zhang Lifeng was on the verge of collapse, he pushed aside the crowd around him, rushed to the box, and wrote a random name on the paper: "Nine-colored Deer".

"Why write this name?" Ke Xun looked at him.

Zhang Lifeng wiped his face and said with a wry smile: "This is one of the few old domestic cartoons that I watched when I was a child. I almost can't remember what story it was about, but I only remember that there was one that seemed to satisfy people. The deer of wish, I hope this deer can bring me some good luck..."

Ke Xun didn't speak anymore. He really didn't think the two longan cores belonged to the cartoon of Nine Color Deer, but the names were already written on the paper, and it was useless to say anything at this moment.

The time on the phone finally jumped to exactly 12:00.

Everyone stood in front of the door corresponding to them, straining all their nerves, waiting for the moment of death that was about to come.

Ke Xun held Mu Yiran's hand tightly, and his emotions were calmer than ever.

Live together and die together. Since this belief was implanted in his heart, he has nothing to fear anymore.

The dark blue background on the wall is printed with yellow stars and moon patterns, which suddenly began to flicker, and the patterns became hazy and distorted, as if a blurred dream suddenly opened.

In the dream, the stars and the moon lost their warm colors and lovely shapes, and gradually transformed into adult faces with different expressions, ranging from anger, sadness, despair, numbness, greed, and treacherous. Some are lustful, some are sinister, some are cold, some are vicious, some are hideous, some are cruel, some are schadenfreude, some are servile, some are two-faced, some are sneering, some are fake smiles, some are smirks…

Every complex emotion that a human being can have is unabashedly displayed on these faces.

Li Yaqing screamed in fright and buried her head in Luo Wei's arms. Wei Miao squatted down and hugged her head tremblingly, not daring to look up.

The men also looked at the faces on the wall in shock. Although these faces did not move, they were only fixed on the wall like the patterns on the murals. Although they all came from the most real expressions of people in reality, it was because This is true, but it makes people look terrified.

Perhaps, no one has realized that it is so terrifying to present the negative emotions of human beings so straightforwardly and nakedly in front of them.

Humans are horrible.

No, or should I say, my lord, it's terrible.

When all the patterns of stars and moons turned into human faces, a playful and playful music sound filled with childishness suddenly came from the box in the middle of the room, like the opening song of a cartoon.

In this lively and pleasant music, Zhang Lifeng let out a shrill scream. Everyone's eyes hurriedly followed the sound, but when they saw Zhang Lifeng, the whole person was melting.

Yes, melt.

His skin was slowly dissolving like a liquid, and flowed down the torso to the ground. As a result, his facial features became distorted and gradually blurred. With only one mouth, there was barely a black hole left, and he continued to emit a terrifying scream.

And when the skin melted, his flesh and bones melted next. The bright red and thick blood, like wax dripping from a candle, slid down from his torso layer by layer, staining the floor under his feet red. , and quickly spread to the surrounding area.

Li Yaqing and Wei Miao were terrified, screaming, howling, and crawling to avoid it, Wei Dong and Luo Wei's faces also turned pale, Ge Lei was stunned on the spot, his body like a He was possessed, unable to move at all, and watched Zhang Lifeng's blood soak the soles and uppers of his feet.

Zhang Lifeng's screams gradually disappeared, and his body had melted to the point where he couldn't see his human form, like an ice cream that had lost its shape in the sun.

A man of flesh and blood melted alive in front of everyone's eyes. The dazzling red blood covered most of the room, and there was not a single hair, or a tooth, or even a fingernail left.

Wei Dong vomited in the corner, and the two girls fainted from fright. Luo Wei bit his lip as hard as he could, for fear that one would vomit out of control.

Even Qin Ci, a doctor who was used to seeing patients with various methods of death, couldn't bear to turn his head away.

Ke Xun lowered his head and rested his forehead on Mu Yiran's shoulder. Zhu Haowen next to him was probably the calmest one among the crowd, because he was colorblind now, and Zhang Lifeng's blood was just gray in his eyes.

Everyone was shocked by the tragic death of Zhang Lifeng, and suddenly heard a "choke" sound, followed by "tom, tom", one small and one large, as if something fell to the ground one after another.

Mu Yiran, Ke Xun, Zhu Haowen, and Qin Ci, these few people who were still able to maintain their composure, immediately followed the sound, but saw Qi Qiang, whose head was in a different place, suddenly fell down at the place where the sound came out.

His prop sword fell beside his body, but after his head fell to the ground, it still rolled for a while, and the broken neck dragged a thick bloodstain on the floor.

On the walls and floor around Qi Qiang's body, blood from the aorta in the neck was splattered everywhere. Coupled with the large pool of blood left on the ground after Zhang Lifeng melted, this room was originally full of dreamlike childishness. The room turned into a purgatory on earth in an instant.

Several people did not make a sound or make any movement for a long time, and the room fell into a dead silence.

Although they were mentally prepared to face death, the way they died was so sudden and cruel that it was difficult for everyone to accept and regain the ability to think calmly.

What's more, the death period has just begun, and no one knows whether there will be a third person that night, and then die in a bizarre way before everyone's eyes.

There was an atmosphere of fear, tension, and total collapse in the room, and everyone was straining all their nerves, waiting for death to come again without resistance.
