Chapter 54:

Go to the third floor to see?
After hearing Xue Se's bold opinion, Ruan Bai's eyes widened, and he subconsciously glanced upstairs.
Unlike the first and second floors where people often live and move, the third floor is much gloomy, with no lights and no humans. The warm wallpapers and carpets have been removed, leaving a piece of snow white, full of unnatural coldness.
Because the evening had passed, the entrance of the stairs on the third floor was dark and faint, like a huge monster mouth, silently lurking here, waiting for the prey to be caught.
This is where the couple lived in the castle.
After only one glance, Ruan Bai withdrew his gaze.
She is really courageous, and she doesn't take the NPC's words seriously. She has long wanted to go to the third floor and take a stroll.
After all, this kind of place is a key place where many secrets can be discovered.
Even if there is danger, it is worth it compared to the huge gain.
It’s just that it’s a bit too early to go to the third floor at this time?
Sure enough, before she could say anything, Xue Se reacted and shook her head.
"Let's do this first," she said softly, "when these songs are finished, we will go and see."
Xue Se's statement was exactly what she wanted, Ruan Bai thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
When the story of these fourteen children is over, the game will definitely be pushed to the next plot point. At that time, they may have more information, and they will be more secure when they go to the third floor.
It was already 6 o'clock in the afternoon, the sky outside was faintly dark, and the lights in the entire castle were lit.
After confirming that there would be no more accidents, Ruan Bai and Xue Se went to the kitchen together, packed up and prepared to cook.
Because there are only four girls in the old castle, and Xue Se Ruan Bai and others have been named by the lyrics, the "three sisters" in the lyrics just now corresponded to the eldest lady.
She is the only female player who has not been named since the beginning of the game.
Thinking of her appearance of her ten fingers not touching the spring water, Ruan Bai could vaguely guess that she might not survive this round.
The ending is just as she expected.
A few minutes later, the body of the old lady who had been standing there suddenly trembled, and her whole body suddenly collapsed on the ground.
A few sharp silver needles appeared on her head, which penetrated deeply into the top of her head, reflecting the cold light under the dim candlelight.
The blood flowed down her white neck, wet the trendy clothes she cherished, and a beautiful and delicate face was full of fear and helplessness.
She died.
When this eldest lady tanned Ruan Bai repeatedly before, Ruan Bai still complained about her in his heart.
But when such a living person died, Ruan Bai still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
The game is really cruel to life.
Fortunately, after so many days, Ruan Bai has long been accustomed to death, plus she is not familiar with the eldest lady herself, so she is not a friend.
After sighing, she left these peculiarities behind.
In the rest of the time, because too many people died, everyone stopped talking.
After eating dinner in silence with the rest of the players, the two returned to the room and washed up before the point.
During this period, Ruan Baiben wanted to say something to Xue Se, but perhaps she was shocked. The girl's complexion was not very good, and her body became weak.
After thinking about it, she could only give up.
While thinking about what happened in just over a day, Ruan Bai put on the quilt and fell asleep.
Early the next morning, she woke up Xue Se.
In the next time, they began to collect information while listening to the song.
In addition to the several songs that have been played before, there are a total of five songs left.
As time passed, more and more players triggered the plot, and these songs were played out in sequence.
After the last song was over, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
There are only six players left here.
Judging from the lyrics of each song, the rest of the plot is similar.
After the third sister was killed by the younger sister, Du Fu, the fourth brother, cut off the hidden third brother's throat with a knife.
The younger sister instigated the sixth brother and asked him to kill the four youngest brothers who were only three or four years old. However, the younger sister herself died in the hands of the fifth brother. Brother Fifth pushed down the stairs.
Although these scenes were not shown directly in front of Ruan Bai, Ruan Bai was still affected by the atmosphere here after listening to the brisk and empty singing of the children.
Children are really contradictory creatures. Ruan Bai likes their innocence, but in this game, she is also shocked by their merciless cruelty.
Ruan Bai was worried that too many accidents happened to the players, and he also provided them with some life-saving information. Unfortunately, in many cases, "knowing how to do it" and "can it be done" are two different things.
Because of the existence of "different space", Ruan Bai couldn't help them at all. The only ones who survived to the end were five players except her and Xue Se.
After these rounds of melee, the only winner among the fourteen children, without exception, was the fourth brother Dufu.
As a ghost, he entered a different space in the fifth round of singing after Xue Se abandoned his identity, and successfully obtained the identity he wanted by cutting his third brother's throat for a while.
After he came out of the "different space", the singing outside had stopped.
All players are sitting on the sofa on the first floor, holding their breath, waiting for the trigger of the next round of plot.
After the fourteen children are fighting, what will happen here?
Just as Ruan Bai's heartbeat speeded up and he was secretly speculating, something happened!
As soon as Father Du came out, there was a pause on the third floor for only three or four seconds before a new singing voice appeared!
"...Forthreedaysandnights, theboywithblackhairandblackeyeswastheluckyone; Fatherandmothercamedownfromthetallbuildingandkissedhisforeheadincommendation..."
It was completely different from the previous singing. This time, it was a chorus of adult men and women.
Their voices are no longer as waveless as children, but they are singing with an extremely excited tone, and the pleasure expressed in their words can hardly be hidden, making the tune of the song appear more or less distortion.
Ruan Bai listened carefully and found that these two sentences were basically summing up.
"For three days and three nights, the black-haired and dark-eyed boy became the last lucky one; his father and mother walked down from the tall building and kissed his forehead like a reward."
As the foster parents of these fourteen children, the two owners of the castle really intended to guide the children to kill.
In fact, Ruan Bai had guessed through some detailed lyrics hints before.
Before the real "Second Brother" player died, he told Ruan Bai that he dreamed that the younger sister would show a letter to the older sister.
Ruan Bai went to the mailbox to search by himself that day, and turned up a lot of news papers, among them, some were related to the bankruptcy of the rich, some were related to the war, and some were related to the cult.
Ruan Bai felt that these prompts should all have their own implications.
She wanted to understand the war at the time, knowing that it was implying that the masters were searching for children who came down on the battlefield.
What about the news about the bankruptcy of the rich? What about cult news?
The castle they were in was in a small town, so the newspapers Ruan Bai found were basically limited to the small town.
And besides the owner of this castle, who can be regarded as rich by the locals?
Not surprisingly, their economy should have been affected in the past few years. Not only can these fourteen children not be able to support them, but it is also difficult for them to maintain their food and clothing.
This should be the cause of their attack on the child and the source of internal struggles among the children.
Especially the lyrics related to the little girl, "Am I the best child" and "Your only choice, it will be me", the hints are already obvious.
80% of this couple wrote a letter telling the children that because of financial constraints, they decided to abandon their thirteen children, leaving only one.
In order to achieve the goal, there may be many provocative remarks in the letter, such as sending the children back to their hometowns, places full of blood and wars.
However, it doesn't matter what it is, at least this letter successfully stirred up the emotions of the elder sister and made her act on the eldest brother.
In this way, the prelude to the whole conspiracy kicked off.
As Ruan Bai thought, the singing on the third floor was slowly playing.
But in the next second, things happen!
"...Dearchild;
Yoursoulissodark……youmustbe……be……abletosummonthe……realdevil……
I don't know what happened, the original smooth singing voice suddenly got stuck!
Like a malfunctioning machine, the parents' singing became intermittent in the latter sentence, mixed with sharp friction reverberation.
When they sang the two words "realdevil" at the end, their voices rose to an incredible height, and when they heard it suddenly, they screamed like they couldn't bear the huge pain.
Especially the lyrics...
"Your soul is so dark, you must be able to summon real demons?"
What is the devil... They do this, it is possible that they are performing some cult ceremony! ?
Noting this, Ruan Bai's eyes suddenly narrowed, and he looked at Father Du's side.
Du's father is the party involved, so he must know some facts.
But at this time, Father Du was gone.
In the empty living room, at this moment, only six players with different looks were left.
Ruan Bai's heart twitched, and he quickly reached out and grabbed Xue Se.
Xue Se glanced at her, and said in unison: "Run!"
Stay here, you can only wait to die!
The couple let the children kill each other, originally they wanted to pick out an absolutely dark and dirty soul to summon the so-called "demon" in the legend.
The purpose is also simple. How many people's desires can be depends on emotional fame and fortune.
But this plot can actually appear in an escape game, and the demon summoned at the end is definitely not a good thing.
Since this couple dared to do such a thing, it means that they must be sure, and they have been hiding on the third floor and refused to show up... Doesn’t that mean that the third floor is safe?
Without hesitation, they immediately ran to the third floor!
The other players also reacted and followed them one after another.
Worried that Xue Se might have an accident, and considering her physical strength, Ruan Bai reached out his hand and picked up the little girl.
Unexpectedly, he was caught off guard, and his expression had been sullen and cold. The white face was stained with a thin layer of red for an instant, and his body was also stiff like a wooden board.
If it were normal, Ruan Bai might even make fun of the shy Xueli like a gangster, but now that the situation is urgent, she can't think too much.
From the moment she left, gusts of black mist emerged from the kitchen, bathroom, living room and other places where people died.
The black mist slowly condensed into the human form of one child after another, turning out the corpses of these dead children, standing in rows in the living room.
They have pale faces and blood-stained bodies, and each ghost presents the appearance before death. Pairs of dark red eyes stare at the players present, and the resentment in their eyes will almost diffuse.
Those black mist spread out through their bodies, as if one by one tentacles were attacking the player.
A player accidentally fell behind. He ran very slowly. His back was hit by a black mist, and his clothing and skin were corroded by something, and he suddenly appeared bloody.
He staggered and ran two steps short, and his whole body was completely submerged by the black mist.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
Accompanied by a scream, the player's shadow disappeared into the black mist.
Ruan Bai glanced back hurriedly, gasping in air.
And the thirteen children were standing downstairs, watching them run upstairs.
There was no expression on their faces, but after seeing Ruan Bai first fled to the third floor, they raised their mouths unanimously, revealing a gloomy smile.
In the darkness, their gazes looked straight at Ruan Bai, their expressions inexplicably fanatical, as if they were saying "You can't escape."
Ruan Bai glanced at them from a distance, was shocked, and then retracted his gaze.
Without thinking, she rushed to the third floor.
Feeling the shady breath coming from the corridor, Ruan Bai took a deep breath and strode into the corridor on the third floor.
