Chapter 27 Please enter the urn

After the game rules are broadcast, a huge one-minute countdown prompt appears directly above the birdcage.

An Wu Jiu stood there and observed the other players, there were more or less doubtful expressions on everyone's faces.

This is normal, but after hearing the rules of a game like this once, you may feel confused.

Under many preconditions, as a caged bird, you can neither judge the person behind you by the sound, nor leave the platform and reach out to touch it.

And the most random thing is that before the outsiders stand on the platform and determine each other's order, the birds are blindfolded and can't see anything.

The sense of smell is also unreliable, the distance between the platform and the platform is not far, even if there is a special smell on the body, it is impossible to judge whether he is right behind him.

However, perhaps because it was a warm-up match, the best solution was chosen, and there was no difference between the people other than the first place, and there was no danger of death or elimination.

So judging from everyone's current expressions, they are not very anxious.

An Wu Jiu turned his face sideways and looked at Shen Ti.

As a result, Shen Ti found out immediately, and also turned his face, put his scissors hands next to his eyes, and compared him.

As expected of him.

One minute passed very quickly.

"The game is about to start. By the way, I would like to remind everyone that any player must not force other players to leave the platform by violent means, otherwise it will be considered a foul and the qualification for the warm-up match will be disqualified."

"At the beginning of the first round, players who are willing to take the initiative to take the role of caged birds raise their hands for a time limit of 30 seconds. If no player appears, all players will be deducted 5 points."

The countdown starts again.

Everyone seems to have chosen to stand still.

The role of the caged bird is different from other roles in scoring. It is a high reward and high risk: once the caged bird guesses the bird catcher behind him correctly, he can get 10 points, but if he fails, he will directly deduct 5 points, and only A caged bird may face deduction of points.

In addition, it is not easy to succeed. According to the probability, the caged bird seems to have only a 1 in 6 chance of being able to guess the person who just moved behind him.

For the bird, this is indeed true, An Wujiu thought.

But it's different for outsiders, especially bird catchers.

This game is actually a game between the caged bird and the bird catcher.

"Five seconds left."

An Wujiu raised his hand.

He noticed that just as he raised his hand, Shen Ti's hand also went up, but in the end he seemed to give up again.

An Wu Jiu couldn't understand the reason why Shen Ti chose to give up for a while, maybe he didn't think about it yet, but this is not like his character, more like he thought no one was participating, so he raised his hand at will, when someone raised his hand First, let it go.

"The countdown is over."

"Player An Wujiu chose to be the caged bird in the first round of the game, please walk into the cage and stand on the round platform facing the cage door."

Following the instructions, An Wu Jiu opened the door of the bird cage, stepped in, and stood on the round table. He faces the door, the platform directly opposite is numbered 1, and the platform facing away is marked 4, clockwise from 1 to 6.

In other words, the player standing behind him after moving must have stopped at platform 4.

Just after reading the number, a four-finger-wide red velvet ribbon suddenly appeared at the top of the golden birdcage, falling to An Wujiu's eyes.

"Please blindfold the caged bird."

So he raised his hand, took the ribbon, covered his eyes, and tied it.

Shen Ti stared at An Wujiu in the cage. His pale face, dark red velvet and his lips, wrists wrapped in white gauze, thin shoulders, imprisoned his gorgeous cage.

For a moment, a strange feeling appeared in his brain.

Almost for the first time, he thought a scene, or picture, could be called aesthetic.

Shen Ti never really felt it.

He came to the altar and saw the people who entered together weeping because of their death, but he stood motionless, the face behind the mask was not cold, but doubtful.

He didn't know why he was crying.

Likewise, he doesn't understand the great joy people feel when they win, but he finds it interesting, so he learns, but sometimes it doesn't seem like he's using it right, and the sad scene reacts with joy, making others think he's a weirdo.

Even the gesture of tapping the shoulders towards An Wujiu just now was something he learned from the two children he met.

But he didn't care about the effect, he felt that he was special to An Wujiu, so even if something went wrong, An Wujiu probably wouldn't turn his head and walk away like everyone else.

Shen Ti didn't think anyone was ugly, and he didn't think anyone was beautiful. In his eyes, these various people seemed to share a vague face. So he also didn't understand the artworks in the bunker, those great paintings that were handed down from time to time, even if he looked closely with a magnifying glass, he didn't think it was anything special.

Seeing An Wu Jiu, he felt different for the first time.

It is believed that he is not a blurry face, but a precise face, different from anyone else.

For the first time, he perceives the special form of aesthetics.

"The caged bird is ready."

After covering his eyes, An Wu Jiu suddenly found that his hearing became very strange, he was usually so sensitive that he could catch any sound, but now he can only hear the sound of the Holy Voice, even a little background sound, footsteps No sound, no breathing.

This is probably because the system blocks other sounds for the caged bird to ensure the smooth operation of the rules of the game.

Really quiet.

Even the sound of Shen Ti's earrings could not be heard.

"Next, ask the caged bird to name a number."

An Wu Jiu was blindfolded and could not see anything.

Numbers don't matter at all, he thought.

Not even moving is important.

Those who really want to catch birds will definitely come.

So he opened his mouth and said a number at random.

"6."

"Start moving now."

Soon, he heard the ethereal child's voice again, singing a song that made his heart feel slightly chilling.

Apart from that, An Wu Jiao did not get any outside information.

The sound of the nursery rhyme stopped abruptly, and Shengyin said, "The outsider has moved."

"The bird in the cage, who is the bird catcher behind you?"

The blindfolded An Wujiu moved his lips.

"Shen Ti."

The reason he chose Shen Ti was not because he wanted to raise his hand, but because he believed that Shen Ti's level must be the same as him. After the rules were finished, he could see through the gameplay of the game.

If there are people like Shen Ti level, this game is not chance.

"The bird in the cage, please open your eyes and look back."

Hearing the instructions of the Holy Voice, An Wu Jiu undid the ribbon and looked back.

Then he smiled slightly.

Sure enough, it was Shen Ti, and he tilted his head to himself.

"The caged bird wins this round, the player An Wugui gets 10 points, and the rest of the players still get 0 points."

When he came down, he saw the European boy Josh's brows wrinkled in confusion, knowing that he still didn't understand how he guessed it, after all, he hadn't had a word of communication with Shen Ti before he entered the cage.

In this game, there is indeed information gap between different players.

An Wu Jiu got more information than new players, that is, the abilities of Shen Ti, Zhong Yirou and Wu You.

But this information gap will gradually disappear in the next few rounds.

Because the name of the game is called Birds in a Cage, so everyone pays too much attention to the birds in the cage, rather than themselves outside the cage, or the bird catcher.

The bird in the cage has no choice but to guess the person behind him in the cage. At first glance, this winning rate seems to be really 1/6.

But people outside the cage can choose.

They can even take the lead by calculating the moment when the bird in the cage shouts the number, so that they can change from "outside the cage" to "bird catcher".

The bird catcher is a player with zero risk and medium reward in this game. He will not deduct points for failing to catch birds, and he can get more points than ordinary cage outsiders if he succeeds.

Therefore, this game should be interpreted as: how to make yourself as a bird catcher as possible without being prejudged by the caged bird.

In this reversal position, the game is no longer a "bird in a cage", but a chair grab.

Grab the same chair.

An Wujiu and Shen Ti recognized each other's strength, so he believed that Shen Ti had already understood the hidden meaning of the rules, and changed his position to the role of a bird catcher. When he called out the number 6, he calculated the platform to be occupied, That is platform 4.

In this way, after six clockwise movements, Shen Ti can stand behind An Wujiu smoothly after just finishing one circle.

For the bird catcher, the odds are one in two.

Either the capture is successful, or the opponent guesses.

And once there is a smart bird catcher, the winning rate of the caged bird is also greatly improved.

He just had to think, who could be so smart.

Since the process of platform selection gives players full initiative, players who want to be bird catchers will definitely find their position very quickly and quickly, which greatly eliminates uncertainty.

But An Wujiu is very clear, Shen Ti is firm, even if he finds out the rules of the reversal, he may not be bold enough to choose him.

That's the part where they all bet.

As long as An Wu Jiu didn't dare to say his name, he would get five points.

But An Wujiu guessed right.

He took advantage of the bird catcher's desire to win, and in the first round of the game where everyone didn't fully understand the rules, he found the person who was most likely to seize the role of the bird catcher.

The holy sound appears.

"The second round of the game begins, and the bird catcher from the first round of the game is invited to enter the cage, become a new caged bird, and blindfold."

An Wu Jiu handed the red velvet ribbon to Shen Ti.

In the silence, their fingertips touched inadvertently.

Shen Ti covered the ribbon and tied it neatly. And An Wujiu who "regained freedom" felt a little strange to him from outside the cage.

Although he was handsome even when he was blindfolded, Shen Ti's eyes were the most powerful.

This time, An Wu Jiu can focus on other outsiders, he does not intend to rob the bird catcher in this round, because he leads by a large margin, and now he is rushing to stand behind Shen Ti, fearing that he will give Shen Ti gave 10 points.

He was going to see if anyone else had discovered the importance of fowlers.

Shen Ti stood still in the cage, and gave a number according to Shengyin's instructions.

"5."

The next second, An Wujiu, who was standing still, thought that the bird catcher should choose platform 5 as the starting point.

6-1-2-3-4, move five times, behind Shen Ti.

At this time, he saw the young lady named Yang Erci walking straight towards platform 5, and stood up very firmly, when the others seemed to be still choosing the platform.

She is really tall and wears a pair of flat shoes, similar to Zhong Yirou who wears high heels.

Just as An Wujiu was watching, Yang Erci was also looking at him. So An Wujiu rolled his eyes.

After everyone had chosen, there was only one seat left, An Wu Jiu stood up. Sure enough, when he was not in the cage, he could hear everyone's footsteps, and even the rubbing of the fabric.

"Start moving now."

The ballad reverberated in the hall again.

Aborted soon.

"The outsider has moved."

"The bird in the cage, who is the bird catcher behind you?"

An Wu Jiu stared at Shen Ti, because he was blindfolded, he could only stare at Shen Ti's lips.

For a moment, he doubted whether Shen Ti could guess.

But the next moment, he immediately reacted, and the information he thought he had was poor, but in fact Shen Ti also had it, and he might have learned about it earlier.

"Yang Erci."

He sure guessed right.

According to Shengyin's instructions, Shen Ti took off the ribbon, the first thing he saw was An Wujiu's calm face, his chances of winning were better, then he turned around and saw the correct answer he had chosen.

As early as the first round of the game, when An Wu Jiu was still blindfolded, Shen Ti observed the others and found that among all the outsiders, only he moved towards platform 4, which the bird catcher should occupy, at the first time. But there was another person, Yang Erci. She seemed to have reacted, but she moved a step slower. Seeing that he had already gone there, she retracted her legs, paused, and then chose another platform at will.

So Shen Ti knew and Yang Erci also understood that this was a bird catcher's game. When he became a caged bird in the second round, he had two clear options in his mind - An Wujiu and Yang Erci.

An Wu Jiu is still in a calm and peaceful state at the moment, not to win by unscrupulous him, so he should use this time to observe others, collect information, and prepare for the subsequent rounds.

So Shen Ti placed his bet on Yang Erci and was rewarded unexpectedly.

"The bird in the cage wins, the player Shen Ti gets 10 points, and the other players don't score this round."

"The current scoring situation on the field: player An Wu Jiao and player Shen Ti - 10 points, and the rest of the players have 0 points."

Halfway through the game, the two players on the field were already ahead by a wide margin.

In the third round of the game, Yang Erci was the caged bird and guessed the bird catcher behind him. Blindfolded, she stood on the stage and said the number she wanted everyone to move.

"2."

An Wujiu wanted to try to grab the Birdcatcher's platform this round, because he wanted to see who would be disappointed because he didn't grab it.

When he stood on platform 2 with a very fast reaction speed, he found that Zhong Yirou was just one step away.

Her discouragement was obvious, she took the next step and stood on platform 3 next to An Wu Jiu, and put her hands on her hips to express her dissatisfaction with him.

An Wu Jiu pursed the corners of his mouth and showed a smile, as if to express his apology.

Shen Ti was standing on platform 5, and he stood up slowly and leisurely, after An Wujiu chose his platform.

This choice is very clever, the caged bird wins, Shen Ti will not lose, and the caged bird loses, he can also get 3 points as a reward. What's more, he had only confronted Yang Erci in the last round, and this time he was the key suspect of Yang Erci.

Therefore, Shen Ti's refusal to fight and rob is also within An Wu Jiu's expectations.

However, just before the ballad sounded, the scene of Yang Erci staring at him suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

So before moving, An Wu Jiu turned around and made an exchange gesture to Zhong Yi Rou.
