Kaleidoscope of Death Chapter 34

Chapter 34

Ruan Nanzhu heard that and tried to say something. But Lin Qiushi lifted his hand and stopped what he wanted to say. He said, “You were out of condition. If you barely went up and something bad happen, what should we do afterwards? Moreover, you can't always accompany with me every time to get through other doors.”

When Ruan Nanzhu heard Lin Qiushi's words, after a moment of silence, he pointed his fingers to Cheng Qianli and said, “You go with him.”

Cheng Qianli didn't refuse.

Xu Jin wanted to speak but hesitate. It seemed that he wanted to persuade Lin Qishi not to go, but he doesn't know what excuses to find.

After the matter was settled, they quickly found a wooden shelf nearly ten meters high in the woods near the temple, which was almost flush with the height of the temple.

“This one?” Lin Qiuishi reached out and pressed on the wooden shelf to confirm if it was strong enough.

“Yeah.” Ruan Nanzhu, “If there is something wrong, you should go straight down and take safety as a priority.”

Lin Qiushi nodded and stepped on the wooden shelf.

This shelf looked old, but fortunately its quality is good, there is no crumbling feeling when climbing up. Lin Qiushi walked very carefully, he said, “Cheng Qianli, are you not afraid of height?”

Cheng Qianli said, “I am not afraid of anything but ghosts.”

Lin Qiushi thought that it would be alright. The action of Cheng Qianli is quite neat. A sixteen years old child, whose reaction ability is just at the peak period. If it was not for being pulled by him when they climed up last time, Lin Qiushi might be dead.

The higher they walked, the more heavy the wind was, and Lin Qiushi had to slow down to watch the situation while he continued to go up.

This platform is about ten meters in total, and there is a wooden platform on the top that connects the top of the temple. Once you climb to the top, you can see the surrounding scenery, whether it is a magnificent temple or a mysterious jungle. Looking from the top down, it is a different kind of grace.

When they got very closer to the wooden platform, Lin Qiushi said, “Almost there, be careful.”

Cheng Qianli nodded and said good.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Qiushi directly turned over to the platform. He thought that there would be some dead bodies on the platform, but he found that the entire platform was empty.

No, it's not exactly that there is nothing, but many bodies had been completely eaten clean. All the bones, even the hair, are not left. Only the blood that is visible on the wood grain tells  people what happened here.

Behind the platform, it was supposed to reveal the roof of the temple, but at this time, the mountain was full of a thick mist, covering the unobstructed scenery, and everything was blurred.

Lin Qiushi stepped forward and gave Cheng Qianli a way.

After Cheng Qianli reached the wooden platform, he watched the mountain for a moment,”This sudden fog at noon…” He turned his head and looked at Lin Qiushi, “Do we keep doing?”

Lin Qiushi hesitated for a moment and looked down.

Both Xu Jin and Ruan Nanzhu looked up and saw that they finally climbed onto the table and waved at them.

Because they are far apart, Lin Qiushi couldn't see their expressions. They should be full of worry.

“Let's go.” Lin Qiushi said,”As Zhu Meng said before, It always takes risks to get out of here alive.”

“Yeah.” Cheng Qianli nodded.

The two walked slowly forward, the closer to the roof, the louder the music that had never stopped, and it seemed that the people playing the instrument were not far from them.

Lin Qiushi took a step and walked from the platform to the roof.

When he crossed the platform, he paused for a second, and felt that the material under his feet seemed to be wrong. Cheng Qianli's reaction was similar to that of his, and he slammed his feet on it,”…Fuck, is it the thing  I imagined?”

“I don't know.” Lin Qiushi said,”It is not a normal roof anyway.”

The material of the roof is hard to see soft or rough. If you must describe it, they seem to be on a very flexible trampoline. But according to the underneath observations, if the temple is a drum, then the top of the drum, is it human skin?

The guess was confirmed. Lin Qiushi and Cheng Qianli's expressions were serious.

Lin Qiu Shi walked a few steps forward and found that every time he went forward, the drums under his feet would make a crisp sound. This voice he had heard two days ago – many knives fell from the sky that day.

So at that time, someone was running on the roof instead of playing drums?

The music guided them in the misty fog. Lin Qiushi felt that he had been walking for a long time in this small temple that he began to wonder if he was beating around the bush in as there was something different in front of him.

It was a back, a girl's back.

Although the long black hair covered most of her body, Lin Qiushi still recognized her dress, which is exactly the same as the girl who appeared in the illusion yesterday.

“Where are you?” The girl suddenly said,”Where are you?”

Both Lin Qiushi and Cheng Qianli held their breath, and they all knew that the girl in front could never be human.

“Where are you?” The music came from her side, and the girl seemed to notice their arrival and stopped playing music. She said, “Someone is coming.”

She turned slowly and revealed her face.

It was a skinless face, red flesh and blood attached to her cheek, the eyeball had been dug, leaving only the black hole in the eyelids, she said,”I am so hurt.”

Lin Qiushi held his breath and he pulled Cheng Qianli next to him and turned to leave. Cheng Qianli seemed to be scared by the scene in front of him. He said nothing and looked at Lin Qiu Shi's back.

The two men's feet stepped on the soft drum surface and knocked out the crisp sound.

“I hurt so much.” The girl's voice was behind her. She repeated the sentence,”Where are you?”

The drums sounded louder and louder, and Lin Qiushi felt that his body began to get heavy. He gasped heavily, but he could not let himself run faster. The lack of oxygen suffocation began to attack his body… Lin Qiushi first discovered that his body is so cumbersome.

Physical strength is about to run out, Lin Qiushi's footsteps gradually slow down. He glanced behind, but did not see the little girl who should have chased them.

“Hu hu…” Lin Qiushi gasped heavily, and at the moment he stopped, he heard a voice.

The voice came from his back and the little girl said, “Why don't you beat the drums?”

Lin Qiushi turned his stiff head and saw a bloody face behind his head, staring quietly at his eyes.

“Ke ke ke!” Lin Qiushi violently coughed up because of the shock. His body fell to the ground and his hands touched the human skin under his feet.

The skin was very soft and even with the unique temperature of the body, Lin Qiushi lowered his head and tried to calm down the cough, but the girl lying on his back climbed to him.

“Where is she?” The girl was still asking. She tilted her head as if she could only say these two words, “I am so hurt.”

Lin Qiushi looked up and finally saw her appearance thoroughly.

She had no legs and can only climb on the ground with her hands. The skin of her whole body was peeled off, revealing red texture and flesh. Her eyes seemed to have been dug up. At this time, the black hole of the scorpion, staring indifferently at Lin Qiu Shi, waited for his answer.

Lin Qiushi suddenly remembered the fonts on the diary. He swallowed heavily and said,”She is looking for you.”

The girl was quiet.

“She has been looking for you.” Lin Qiushi said, “until you leave the world… she is always looking for you.”

The girl slowly straightened her body, then reached out and slammed the drum heavily.

“Dong!” The crisp sound made people feel cold. The mountains in front of them disappeared, and the scenery in front of them began to become clear.

“You… want to see her?” Lin Qiushi asked.

“Take her to me.” The girl said the last sentence, and then disappeared in front of Lin Qiushi.

Lin Qiushi's body was almost completely out of steam. He barely stood up, but saw Cheng Qianli who was sitting next to him was as weak as him.

Cheng Qianli saw him, and he spit out a  sentence, “Fuck, Lin Qiu Shi, we will hurry up.”

Lin Qiushi nodded and went to the side of the platform with Cheng Qianli.

Cheng Qianli's face was pale and he didn't say a word along the way. He also had some blood on his body, but he didn't know if it was the little girl's.

They climbed down the wooden platform, and both of them were almost dead.

Ruan Nanzhu quickly went forward to ask about the situation.

Lin Qiushi sat on the ground and shook his head, narrating what happened above with simple words.

“Cheng Qianli, what is hidden in your arms?” Ruan Nanzhu noticed something else.

Lin Qiushi looked at Cheng Qianli, and found out that Cheng Qianli's T-shirt was bulging. He knew there was something inside.

Cheng Qianli took a deep breath and pulled that thing out of his arms – it was a bone flute. Although its shape has changed, it can still be seen that it is made by human bones

Lin Qiu shi said,”…you are brave enough.” You dare to bring this thing out? ?

Cheng Qianli had already been scared to cry like a rabbit, he said,” I am not easy. I saw that the thing stood in front of you that I didn't dare to save you. All I can do was to see if I can bring something out for we were already there…”

Lin Qiushi,”…”

Ruan Nanzhu reached out and touched his head,”Don't cry, don't you feel shame?"

Cheng Qianli said,”I still have two years to become an adult.”

Raun Nanzhu said,”Go to talk with the above thing and see if she can let you die quickly as for you are a minor.”

Cheng Qianli said,”No, no…”

Seeing this bone flute, Lin Qiushi also understood why the girl's leg was like that. He said,”But since the girl was brought by Cheng Qianli down, there should be no big deal.”

Ruan Nanzhu said,”So she wants us to bring her sister over now?”

Lin Qiushi,”It should be like this.” He thought for a while, and there was some confusion on his face,”But how do we tell the bones of her sister?” If he guessed it correctly, his sister's bones should be in the tower. On the other hand, there are so many bones in the tower group that it is impossible to try them one by one.

Ruan Nanzhu fell into meditation,”There is always a way.”

Cheng Qianli finally recovered from the panic, and wiped the nose and tears to exaggerate the description of how thrilling on the roof.

“You don't know how scared I was when I saw that thing was behind Brother Lin.” Cheng Qianli said, “I want to tell him, but that thing has been staring at me, I thought we both ight die there.”

“Hey.” Lin Qiushi said, “I also thought it.” He looked down at his T-shirt, and it was blood red, just like a murder had happened right now.

“It's good to get down.” Ruan Nanzhu calmed them down,”It seems that the key should appear when the sisters meet each other, but we still need to find the door now…”

As they spoke, they walked toward the temple. They saw that Meng Yu was talking with a girl. The two were close to each other and the atmosphere was ambiguous.

Ruan Nanzhu and Xu Jin looked at each other with a tacit understanding.

Xu Jin siad,”It is really a good place to fall in love.” Then she looked at Lin Qiushi.

Lin Qiu Shi was confused, but Ruan Nanzhu very close to Lin Qiushi's side. He smiled to him,”Was it hard to sleep with Meng Yu on a bed yesterday? How about we both sleeping on a bed…”

Lin Qiushi said,”As you wish.”

Xu Jin was very angry.

After discovering that they were seen, Meng Yu were not in a hurry and smiled at them to say hello.

“What did you find?” asked Meng Yu.

“No.” Ruan Nanzhu answered very calmly.

Meng Yu rasised his eyebrows with a faint smile on her face. His peach blossom eyes moved to Lin Qiushi's body,”What have you encountered, how did the clothes become like this?”

Ruan Nanzhu said,”Bad luck, we met the little monster we saw last time, but fortunately we escaped.” He said and gently coughed a few times, like a weak willow, which made people feel pity on him.

Meng Yu did not ask more. He just said be careful, and then turned away with the woman.

He let them go so easily, which made Lin Qiushi feel strange. Ruan Nanzhu waved his hand and frowned and said that we didn't care too much about him. He should also take the job. As long as we can ensure that the man that picked up the work are alive, it is naturally a good thing to open the door even with difficulty and effort.

“But,” said Ruan Nanzhu,”I feel that this person is a bit familiar…”

Lin Qiushi said,”Familiar?”

Ruan Nanzhu said,”It seems like I have seen him before.” He pondered for a moment and didn't seem to think of any answer. He gave up. “Forget it. Since he has no threat to us, we think about him after getting out. Now the most important thing is to find the key early.”

Lin Qiushi nodded.

When they returned to the temple, they found that the atmosphere did not seem right. After careful questioning, they knew that the monster that was seen yesterday when they went out appeared again. It still dragged a long knife, but this time there was no knives falling from the sky outside, so everyone ran out to avoid it until the monster disappeared.

Some people in the crowd said that the monster appeared to be accompanied by a drum sound. Lin Qiushi immediately remembered that he and Cheng Qianli had been running on the roof for a long time. It is estimated that they are related to them.

However, although he thought so, he did not say it. He expressed doubts with everyone.

Fortunately, apart from this incident, the team did not have new victims.

In the evening, the tour guide still arrived at the agreed place on time. She smiled and repeated the words of yesterday, and then took everyone back to the residence.

After talking about the agreed time tomorrow, the tour guide said goodbye to the crowd. Before leaving, she suddenly said something she had not said before yesterday. She said,”Tomorrow morning, we won't go until all you twelve people arrive."

When this word came out, the original relaxed smile on everyone's face immediately faded, and even some people's faces got horrified.

The tour guide seemed to have not seen that. She waved his hand and disappeared in front of everyone.

“Twelve? Why are twelve? Are we not a total of thirteen people?” The crowd made a noisy argument, “Is someone going to die tonight…”

“Yes, it must be like this.” Someone echoed, “So there will be only twelve alive tomorrow, and one will not live tonight.”

The more people say, the more panic in their hearts, and obviously no one wanted to be the poor victim.

However, both Meng Yu and Ruan Nanzhu were quiet, listening to the discussion of other people in silence, and did not express any opinions.

“I'm so sleepy today, go back to sleep early.” Ruan Nanzhu was completely unaffected by the comments of the tour guide. He yawned lazily and looked tired and leaned on Lin Qiuishi's shoulder.

“Let's go.” Lin Qiushi nodded.

Meng Yu was sitting next to him. After hearing the words of Ruan Nanzhu, he smiled and said,”How Brave, can you fall asleep?”

Ruan Nanzhu said,”I don't have to die if not doing to sleep?” He waved his hand, “Damn still die.”

Meng Yu agreed,”It is also true.”

The four of them returned to their homes and lay back on the bed after simply washing.

As Ruan Nanzhu said in the daytime, he slept on Lin Qiushi's bed tonight, and Cheng Qianli was rushed to sleep alone.

Xu Jin had been numb, habitually watching the two people sprinkle dog food. She seemed to be not very good today and did not say much after a day. She fell asleep early.

“What do you think of the words of the tour guide today?” When Lin Qiu-shi thought that Ruan Nanzhu was asleep, he whispered to Lin Qiushi.

“Maybe they are right?” Lin Qiushi said, “Tonight an accident will happen…”

“I don't think so.” Ruan Nanzhu said, “But it's still uncertain, we won't know until night.”

Lin Qiushi touched his hair,”How are you feeling?”

Ruan Nanzhu said,”Much better.” He said, “Sleep.”

“OK.” Lin Qiushi nodded.

With Ruan Nnahzu sleeping around, Lin Qiushi always sleep quietly. Tonight is also the same, Lin Qiushi slept until the next day, during which he was not awakened.

Instead, Cheng Qianli seemed to have stayed up all night and said,”Brother Lin, you are really brave.”

Lin Qiushi said,”How do you say?”

Cheng Qianli was shocked: “You forgot the bloody handprint we saw under the bed yesterday??”

Lin Qiushi said nothing. Hey, he really forgot, but still pretend to be a look how can I forget and said in earnest, “I have not forgotten, how can I forget such an important thing.”

Cheng Qianli said,”You are not afraid?”

Lin Qiushi said,”Can it solve the problem?” He patted the shoulders of Cheng Qianli,”Be brave!”

Cheng Qianli nodded heavily.

Then Lin Qiushi sneaked to the side of the Ruan Nanzhu, whispered,”Nanzhu, do you remember the bloody handprint yesterday?”

Ruan Nanzhu said,”Yes.”

Lin Qiushi said,”You are so afraid of sleeping with me like this?”

Ruan Nnazhu does not understand what he was saying: “I am not afraid of ghosts, why am I afraid what the bloody handprint?”

Lin Qiushi said nothing. Big brother is big brother.

The words of the tour guide yesterday caused the whole team to be heart-wrenching, but when everyone got together in the morning, they found that the imaginary victims did not appear.

Thirteen people yesterday, today is still thirteen, No one miss.

“Fortunately, the tour guide really scared us.” Someone in the crowd was sighing.

“Yes, fortunately, there are no people miss.” The voice was also very loud.

However, Lin Qiushi did not notice that after discovering that there were no people miss, his face was suddenly gloomy. He did not eat anything, and his eyes stalked in the crowd.

“What's wrong?” Lin Qiushi was a little confused.

“It's better that some died.” The mood of Ruan Nanzhu was not very good,”I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing again.”

“What do you mean?” Lin Qiushi still did not understand.

Ruan Nanzhu said,”Generally, the key NPC will not lie.”

Lin Qiushi said,”So…” He heard this sentence and instantly understood the meaning of the him,”It means that someone is not a human being among us?”

“If someone died yesterday, things will be easier.” Ruan Nanzhu said,”Unfortunately not.”

He picked up the water glass and took a sip. “It's trouble now.”

This is naturally troublesome. It is already the fourth day. Lin Qiushi does not even remember the names of all people, let alone find out how difficult to find who are not human being from these people.

Most people are happy after discovering that nothing happened yesterday.

In addition to Ruan Nanzhu, there are also Meng Yu.

The look of the Meng Yu and Ruan Nanzhu looked a bit similar, whose brows slightly squinted, and their eyes revealed a little indifference and contemplation.

Soon, the two men noticed each other, and Meng Yu stood up and walked to the side of Ruan Nanzhu, revealing a normal gentle smile,”Can we go out and talk?”

“Of course.” Ruan Nanzhu said. He turned his head and said to Lin Qiushi: “Wait for me a second.”

Then he went out with Meng Yu.

“What happened?” Cheng Qianli and Xu Jin, who went out for breakfast, met Ruan Nanzhu and Meng Yu. Hee didn't hear the words of Ruan Nanzhu, so he naturally didn't know the guess of him. Together with others, He was glad that there were no one died last night.

Lin Qiuishi originally wanted to say, but suddenly hesitated, and finally he just said,”There is something Meng Yu wants to talk to him.”

“Oh.” Cheng Qianli nodded.

Xu Jin whispered next to him,”Brother Lin, they stay alone, are you not jealous?”

Lin Qiushi: “Jealous? Why?”

Xu Jin said, “…you and Zhu Meng are not…”

Lin Qiushi explained,”We are only friends.”

Xu Jin doubted,”Friends???”

Lin Qiushi said,”Just friends…”

Xu Jin fell into silence,”Brother Lin, you are really a good man.”

After a while, Ruan Nanzhu and Meng Yu came back from the outside. Both of them were not as gloomy as before. Although they didn't smile, they were better than when they went out.

“What did you say?” Cheng Qianli asked curiously.

Ruan Nanzhu said,”Kid, don't ask too much.” He turned to look at Lin Qiuishi,”Do you want to know what we said?”

Cheng Qianli,”…” That is too much.

Lin Qiushi nodded.

Raun Nanzhu smiled,”If you kiss me, I will tell you.”

Lin Qiushi said,”Ha??”
