Chapter 191 Labyrinth
"Originally, I thought you two were the rare ones who could escape from my hands alive, but it's a pity that the success fell short."
What he said made both of us a little puzzled at the same time.
Song Wei was even more outspoken and asked directly, "What do you mean by that? He was obviously not completely sacrificed. It was us who won."
The ghost still shook his head and pointed to the chess game aside, "There is something wrong here."
I hurried over and took a look. Song Wei's chess game was probably calling my name at the end, trying to wake me up. He didn't play well at all. It was already a dead end.
But Song Wei's move hadn't been completed yet, and there was still a chance. I quickly asked him to come over and place a chess piece in the direction I pointed.
With the immediate crisis resolved, I turned around and said, "Go ahead."
The ghost was unwilling to return to the chess game at this time, "How can you leave while playing chess? If you leave this table, you will automatically admit defeat."
When I was struck by lightning, I never expected that this would be the reason for our failure.
Just when the ghost was about to take action, I suddenly remembered it and shouted quickly, "No, what you said is wrong. Is it possible that whoever gets up first loses?"
Just when the ghost was about to nod, he suddenly felt something was wrong and stopped to think.
I continued, "We all saw it just now. The first one to get up was you who came to get the timer."
The ghost didn't realize this at first, but he remembered it after I said this. If he dares to agree, then we will win.
Glancing at the chessboard next to him, the ghost shook his head and said, "I misremembered just now. Come on, come back and let's continue playing this chess game."
It's no wonder that he would choose to turn back at this time. After all, in the chess game, the hope of making a comeback is already very slim.
He took the first step, and I looked at the dead end and fell into deep thought.
While I was thinking about it, if two minutes had passed by the time I was rescued, I still had no clue. No matter which way I went, it seemed like it was delaying time and would not have much effect.
By this time, Song Wei was basically at a loss and waiting for me to point him out.
The ghost was still counting the time happily. In this case, I had to take a few deep breaths, force myself to calm down, and look at the game again.
At the last moment, I finally found a new way out, using offense as defense.
The ghost didn't take it seriously, thinking that this was just a struggle before death, and didn't take it seriously.
Just as he relaxed, a chess piece was played that turned the situation around.
By the time he reacted, it was already too late. He looked at the chess game and fell into deep thought, while I stared at the timer.
Sure enough, when the time came, he still couldn't find a way to crack it, and we won.
He choked out a sentence dryly, "It's really good, I will be formidable later in life."
Then a door appeared out of thin air in front of us.
When Song Wei and I left, I looked back and saw that the ghost was still studying the chess game.
I can't see more and more clearly what the Gate of Life and Death is trying to do.
This ghost looks like it has lived for hundreds of years. It is tired of fighting and killing, so it uses this kind of game to decide life and death in an entertainment way.
As soon as Song Wei came out, he relaxed a lot, "Brother Xu, you don't know, what I'm most afraid of is these formal things. He even forced me to play chess. Fortunately, I met you, otherwise I would be here
One pass and you're dead."
To be honest, I was quite touched. I was finally willing to believe him. Considering his determination to save me to the death, this person was definitely worthy of my trust.
I patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, we all know what happened just now, and I'm glad I met you."
Looking at each other, everything was in silence. At this moment, at the crossroads of life and death, we fully accepted each other.
We continued to go upstairs, and when we reached the fifth floor, I got a little more energetic. This was the last place.
As soon as the two of us walked upstairs, a maze appeared directly in front of us, and the entrance was in front of us.
It seems that this fifth level is completely different from the previous ones. There is no common sense to play cards, and there is no key. This is a maze.
There are no prompts at the entrance of this maze. It neither explains what we will encounter after entering, nor does it tell us what to look for after entering.
There is only one entrance here hinting us to enter.
I turned my head and glanced at Song Wei and said to him, "I don't know what I will encounter here, so I can only walk and take a look."
Song Wei nodded and looked a lot more serious, "As long as we don't force them to separate anymore, I just smoothed the rope a little bit and tied us together. I don't believe we can still be separated."
I was also worried about this matter, but I didn't expect that Song Wei actually thought of a countermeasure. The rope was wrapped around his wrist and the two of them were tied together.
After making sure it was tied up, we walked inside.
As I walked in, I seemed to hear a few people arguing behind me. I looked back and vaguely saw Hu Qi.
It seemed that it was not much different from my guess. Their conflicts could not be concealed and they started to quarrel.
Three people working together would have made the difficulty infinitely more difficult. Hu Qi's clothes were ragged and rumpled, so he must have suffered a lot.
Before entering the next level, these people were really noisy.
The next moment, Song Wei and I were randomly sent to the inside of the maze.
Getting out of here, leaving this maze, should be the prerequisite for passing the level.
I originally thought that this was the same level as before, a level that we could clear alone, but this idea started to change until we encountered a corpse.
Song Wei and I had no direction and were moving forward randomly. Song Wei said he smelled the smell of blood. There was an opening right next door to us, so we turned in.
I originally thought it would be some kind of animal, but I didn't expect it to be a human figure lying in a pool of blood.
With such a large amount of bleeding, even if he is still alive, he cannot be saved.
Song Wei said in surprise, "Why is there someone else here?"
I also didn’t expect that the other person looked like a tester. I suddenly had the idea that what was waiting for us in the last level was not some monster or monster, but the body of a human tester, lying here.
That's the proof.
Thinking of this, I reminded, "Be careful, the people who came in here earlier than us have already started killing each other."
Song Wei frowned and nodded. Even if there was something on this man's body, it must have been taken away.
"Let's go."
Song Wei and I left here without stopping.
After all, the smell of blood here is so strong. If someone comes following the smell and bumps into us, they might start a fight.
