    Chapter 121 Labyrinth

    However, this thing only appeared in an instant, and soon disappeared in front of the three people again, leaving only the silent darkness inside the door.

    Gu Longming swallowed his saliva and said, "What the hell is this?" This thing is definitely not a person, and no one has a pair of yellow eyes.

    "I don't know." Lin Qiushi said, "I didn't see it too clearly." He looked at Ruan Nanzhu, but saw Ruan Nanzhu's brows wrinkled.

    Ruan Nanzhu said: "It is a human-shaped creature with scales all over its body." He said, "The eyes are yellow..."

    "Could it be a mermaid?" Gu Longming felt that if that was the case, he could barely get some comfort.

    "It may be a mermaid." Ruan Nanzhu looked at him with a smile, "It's just the kind of mermaid whose head turns into a fish."

    Gu Longming shuddered at the picture Ruan Nanzhu said.

    Although there was a gap in the door in front of them, they had no desire to continue exploring, but chose to leave. Before leaving, Ruan Nanzhu took the door and said, "If you don't know it, don't touch the things inside for the time being."

    Next, the three of them took the time to explore other locations on the ship, and found that the ship was actually very large, at least able to accommodate several hundred people, and there were even gun barrels hidden under the plywood, although they did not see the existence of ammunition on the ship .

    Just as they were walking around the ship to collect information, there was a commotion on the deck, as if something had happened to someone.

    When Lin Qiushi rushed to the deck, she saw that the girl who cried the worst yesterday actually got into the only lifeboat on the ship. There was a man beside her, both of them held oars in their hands, and there was plenty of fresh water and food beside her. ——Obviously, they wanted to get out of this boat and row away by themselves.

    "Come back quickly, you will die!!" The crowd who saw the actions of the two made a noisy voice. Among them, there was already a kind old hand who was reminding the two newcomers who were not afraid of death. The old hand waved his arms at them. Shouted, "You can't go anywhere else, you're really going to die, you come back soon"

    "Don't try to lie to me!" the girl screamed, looking at the boat full of people, "I don't want to go with you, you will definitely take me to a terrible place! I want to go by myself !"

    After she finished speaking, she thought that the person would continue to persuade, but found that the atmosphere was strangely silent. Everyone was staring at the sea water under the lifeboat she was sitting on, but there was an unspeakable fear in their eyes.

    "What's wrong? What are you looking at?" The girl seemed to have noticed something, her throat moved, she turned her head slowly with a stiff expression, and looked at the sea beside her.

    The sea was calm, but there seemed to be a problem with the color. A deep black enveloped the sea below her, as if something... lurked around her.

    "Ah..." The girl shuddered and looked at her companion, "Let's go."

    The companion's hand holding the oar also trembled, nodding at the girl in a panic, and the two rowed together, trying to leave this vast and boundless sea.

    When the pulp in their hands came into contact with the water, the water under the boat swayed into thin spray. However, at this moment, the girl heard the sound of something moving rapidly. Before she could react, a huge fish tail jumped out of the water and hit the boat she was on heavily.

    The boat was directly smashed into pieces by the tail of the fish, and the two people who were still on the boat fell into the water instantly. At this time, she also saw part of the face of the big fish in front of her.

    It was a big fish whose appearance was difficult to describe. The dense teeth were as sharp as needles, and the huge open mouth could swallow the whole boat in one bite. The body of the big fish showed a faint dark green color. She couldn't see how big the fish was. She only knew that she wasn't even big enough for it to stick between her teeth.

    Seeing that the lifeboat was overturned like this, everyone almost held their breath.

    And Lin Qiushi reacted the fastest. When the boat capsized, he picked up the lifebuoy next to him and threw it towards the location of the girl and her friend.

    The girl who was rolling in the water used her last strength to reach out and grab the lifebuoy, while Lin Qiushi quickly grabbed the rope on the lifebuoy and pulled it back, roaring, "Caught—"

    They stand relatively high, so they can see the whole picture of the fish in the sea. From the shaded part, the fish was almost the size of the boat they were on, but it didn't seem to have any intention of attacking anyone, just a warning to the girl who was trying to leave.

    The others also reacted and threw the lifebuoy towards the other, then lowered the rope ladder and let the two climb up from the sea.

    When climbing the rope ladder, the girl was trembling all over, but she climbed up anyway. When she got to the deck, she was paralyzed on the ground, unable to say a word.

    "I told you not to leave." Lin Qiushi remembered that the person who spoke seemed to be Song Yongning, a veteran with a good temper. He said to the girl, "Hurry up and change your clothes and take a rest."

    "Then, what is that?" The trembling girl thought of the huge fish, her voice weak, "It's lurking around the boat? Will it attack the boat?"

    No one knew the answer, so they could only look at her in silence.

    This silence made the girl even more uneasy, but she had no choice but to wipe her tears and leave with her companions. This accident was a near miss, it seems that this is just a lesson for novices who do not understand the rules.

    Lin Qiushi took another look into the dark water and saw that the huge fish was gone.

    Seeing that everything subsided, the people standing on the deck gradually dispersed.

    "Let's go too." Ruan Nanzhu said.

    Lin Qiushi nodded.

    This incident seems to be just an insignificant episode, and it doesn't have much impact on the door.

    At lunch time, the food was still those disgusting dead fish. The three of them didn't eat fish, but took some noodles and mixed it with Laoganma.

    When others saw that they actually brought the old godmother, they all cast envious eyes.

    There was a young man who couldn't hold back, came over cheeky and asked Ruan Nanzhu for a spoon, Ruan Nanzhu glanced at him, and actually kindly gave him a spoon.

    "Thank you, thank you." The man thanked, "My name is Shen Juexin, feel free to say anything if you can help me!" His face was not very good, his skin was sallow, and he looked like he was seriously ill.

    However, Lin Qiushi remembered him and knew that he was the most seasick brother. He had been lying in bed all day yesterday, and it was amazing to be able to stand up now.

    When Gu Longming was eating, his eyes kept wandering in the restaurant, as if he was thinking of something, his expression was very serious.

    By the end of lunch, he said he had an idea.

    It happened that Lin Qiushi wanted to go to the toilet, so he let them chat first, and he came over in a while.

    The two of them found a hidden corner in the hull corridor and chatted in a low voice.

    "Mengmeng." Gu Longming said, "Do you remember the sacrifice of Minotaur mentioned in the clue?"

    Ruan Nanzhu said: "Remember, what's wrong?"

    Gu Longming said, "In mythology, it is said that there are seven men and seven women for the sacrifices. Don't we have just fourteen people right now?" Seven boys and seven girls!"

    Ruan Nanzhu heard Gu Longming's speculation, but was silent for a moment, and said, "Seven men and seven women... plus me?"

    Gu Longming was inexplicable: "Of course I will add you."

    Ruan Nanzhu leaned against the railing and said nothing.

    Gu Longming scratched his head: "Why don't you speak?"

    Ruan Nanzhu thought about it and said, "Come here, I'll show you a big baby." Then he waved to Gu Longming.

    Gu Longming was still at a loss, and as soon as he leaned over, he saw Ruan Nanzhu lifted up his skirt.

    "Fuck!!" Gu Longming blushed instantly, and said, "What are you doing—wait..." He noticed something wrong with the bulge, and his eyes were a little dull, "What is that?"

    Ruan Nanzhu showed a bright smile and leaned close to Gu Longming's ear, no longer using false voices, her voice was low and full of magnetism, it belonged to a man's voice: "Tell you a secret, in fact, I'm not Yu Linlin's girlfriend, I'm him man."

    Gu Longming: "..." His expression can no longer be described as being struck by lightning. He looked terrified, and looked at Ruan Nanzhu with the eyes that saw the end of the world.

    "So it's not seven men and seven women." Ruan Nanzhu said, "Of course, there are people who disguise themselves as men."

    Gu Longming didn't speak, and he hadn't come out of the blow.

    Ruan Nanzhu patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "Brother, don't worry, take your time, you can always accept it."

    Gu Longming was quiet for a while, and then he said something resentful: "Then he still dislikes the high school girl I'm pretending to be, hmph, damn it."

    Ruan Nanzhu: "..." He looked at Gu Longming's body shape, and thought about the appearance of this person dressed as a girl, and felt that Chen Fei and Gu Longming might have an agreement.

    Lin Qiushi didn't know what happened to Ruan Nanzhu. After he came out of the toilet, he saw Gu Longming's lost expression, and said strangely: "What's wrong? What happened?"

    "It's okay." Ruan Nanzhu said, "I just told him a little truth."

    Lin Qiushi: "..." What happened to Gu Longming's resentful expression when nothing happened?

    "By the way, what were you trying to say just now?" Lin Qiushi asked.

    "It's all right." Gu Longming said, "It's all right now."

    Lin Qiushi was simply inexplicable. He had planned to ask in detail, but he heard terrified screams from the restaurant on the second floor. The three of them looked at each other and hurried over to see a person standing in the restaurant, spinning around like a headless fly.

    "What happened?" Lin Qiushi asked.

    "It's gone, it's gone, it's gone-" The man's eyes were full of fear, and he kept repeating the same sentence, "It's gone, it's obviously right next to it, right next to it —"

    "Calm down." Lin Qiushi advised, "What happened, tell me carefully, maybe we can help!"

    The man glanced at Lin Qiushi and said in a trembling voice, "The house is gone, our house is gone..."

    Ruan Nanzhu: "What do you mean?" He seemed to understand something and said, "Go, let's go out and see!"

    Ruan Nanzhu hurriedly turned around and walked out of the restaurant. When they saw the surrounding rooms, they finally understood the meaning of the man's words-except the restaurant, the positions of all the rooms had changed, which should have been at the bottom of the cabin. The room actually appeared near the restaurant, and the original room next to the restaurant disappeared at this time, it should have been moved to another location.

    Seeing this change, for the first time, two words appeared in Lin Qiushi's mind: maze.

    "That's what it meant." Ruan Nanzhu said, "It's really surprising."

    "But why hasn't the location of the restaurant changed?" Gu Longming was a little surprised by this.

    "A maze always has a starting point." Lin Qiushi sorted out his thoughts, "The restaurant should be the starting point of this maze."

    "Where is the end point?" Gu Longming asked.

    "The end point is naturally where the Minotaur is." Ruan Nanzhu said, "Of course, we don't know yet what the Minotaur in this door means."

    Others also rushed to the restaurant one after another, and the sensitive people had already noticed the changes in the surrounding environment before they entered the restaurant.

    "Then where did my room go? My bag is still in the room and I haven't brought it out!" Someone panicked immediately after discovering this, turned around and planned to run away, "I'm going to find my bag!!" The man hurriedly turned around and ran towards the place where the bedroom was originally.

    But whether he can find it is another matter.

    However, in such a short period of time, the houses around him changed again. At first, there was a thin layer of fog on the door, and then the number outside the door changed-obviously, these houses changed. The time was very short. Lin Qiushi looked at the time and found that he would change to another room in about five minutes.

    Fortunately, their habit is to carry things with them, otherwise they will be as flustered as the man just now.

    But the people in the room didn't seem to have any accident, because just after this change, a person actually came out of the room in front of them, and that person was also blank, and said, "I'm not on the first floor? "He looked left and right, and found himself standing next to the restaurant, "Why did you come here?"

    No one answered his words, everyone's attention was on the ever-changing room in front of them, and the dead silence spread in front of everyone like a plague.

    Lin Qiushi looked at the changing labyrinth in front of him, but thought about the content of the clues and what the Minotaur meant.

    Because of this sudden change, everyone fell into a brief panic, but soon someone adjusted their emotions and began to explore.

    At this time, the difference in mental state was revealed, and at least those who could calm down earlier still had a chance to survive.

    Lin Qiushi and the others also tried to find the room they used to live in, but found that they couldn't find it at all. The room is changed every five minutes. Every time you change, all rooms will leave their original positions. It is impossible to walk through all the rooms in such a short time.

    So most people gave up exhausted.

    Lin Qiushi was also a little tired from running, standing on the deck watching the sea to rest.

    As the sky darkened, the sea began to be blown by the whistling sea wind, and the thick black clouds in the sky were also pressed down.

    Gu Longming stood beside Lin Qiushi and said, "Where are we going to sleep at night." The key given yesterday was completely useless, and it was embarrassing that he had the cheek to change it.

    "Just find a room to sleep in." Lin Qiushi said, "As long as you have a bed."

    When Lin Qiushi was talking, he heard footsteps behind him, he turned his head to look, but found the newcomer who was trying to escape in a lifeboat during the day, she was standing a little far away from Lin Qiushi, her eyes were a little hesitant: "That... ... Yu Linlin..."

    Lin Qiushi said, "Excuse me, what's the matter with you?"

    She glanced at Ruan Nanzhu quickly, then withdrew her gaze, and said a little unnaturally: "Is there something I want to talk to you alone?"

    Lin Qiushi looked at Ruan Nanzhu and said, "Mengmeng?" He was respecting Ruan Nanzhu's opinion.

    "Go." Ruan Nanzhu's expression was light, not nervous at all, and waved his hand casually, "Come back early."

    Lin Qiushi nodded, and then followed the girl away.

    Gu Longming smiled and said, "Aren't you worried?"

    "What are you worried about?" Ruan Nanzhu asked.

    Gu Longming said, "I'm worried about other people hooking up with Yu Linlin."

    Ruan Nanzhu said, "Do you think I'm good-looking or she's good-looking?"

    Gu Longming said honestly: "You." Although you are a cute girl.

    Ruan Nanzhu: "Do you think I am better or she is better?"

    Gu Longming: "You..."

    Ruan Nanzhu spread his hands: "Yu Linlin is not blind, so what am I worried about?" He is not an adolescent girl who needs to find a sense of security. Everyone is an adult, so why eat such naive vinegar.

    Gu Longming simply gave Ruan Nanzhu a thumbs up of admiration.

    Besides, Lin Qiushi and the girl walked to the other side of the deck, and she looked behind her from time to time, looking very uneasy.

    Lin Qiushi didn't rush to ask. When they were far enough away from Ruan Nanzhu, the girl opened her mouth and said, "Well, I'm sorry, I want to ask, are you and that girl boyfriend or girlfriend?"

    Lin Qiushi nodded and admitted: "She is my lover, what's your name?"

    "You can just call me Xiaomo." Xiaomo said, "It's my first time entering the door, so I can bring other people with me."

    Lin Qiushi said: "Okay, what's the matter with you?"

    Xiao Mo swallowed her saliva, she hesitated, "I... I saw that your girlfriend and the man beside him..."

    Lin Qiushi was stunned, knowing that the man Xiaomo was talking about was Gu Longming: "What happened to them?"

    "They have a leg!!" Xiao Mo said in a hurry, "I happened to pass upstairs this afternoon, and you were not there at the time. I saw him lift up his skirt and show that man!"

    Lin Qiushi: "..." He heard what Xiao Mo said, and fell into a long silence for a while. No one knew better than him what was under Ruan Nanzhu's skirt.

    "I didn't lie to you!" Lin Qiushi's silence seemed to give Xiaomo an illusion, and she quickly distinguished, "After he lifted his skirt, he leaned into that person's ear and spoke!"

    Lin Qiushi: "..." Does he have reason to believe that Ruan Nanzhu, the actor, will ask Gu Longming excitedly after he lifts his skirt?

    It's no wonder that Gu Longming was completely unguarded this afternoon, and he was hesitant to say anything to him from beginning to end, thinking that his spirit was hit by nuclear energy.

    Xiao Mo said: "Yu Linlin, don't be too sad...you are a good person." She sighed, "If you hadn't threw a lifebuoy for me today, I might have been gone." It seems that she deliberately approached Lin Qiushi to talk about this matter, too. In order to repay the grace of Lin Qiushi for saving her life during the day.

    Lin Qiushi wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say, so he finally said, "I see, thank you."

    Xiao Mo said: "You... what should I do?"

    Lin Qiushi was quiet for a moment, and then said, "What can I do? Of course, I choose to forgive him."

    Xiaomo: "..." The moment Lin Qiushi said this, she seemed to see Lin Qiushi's hair faintly glowing green.

    "After all, I love him." If you love him, you have to tolerate him like a drama. Lin Qiushi thanked Xiao Mo, turned and left, waving his hand, without taking a cloud away.

    Xiao Mo's expression was distorted, and he didn't seem to recover for a while. Seeing his reaction, it was obvious that this was not the first time that this kind of thing had happened, which meant that Yu Linlin had been habitually wearing a cuckold... Xiao Mo, who made such a guess, was in a very complicated mood. When he finally left the deck, the facial features on his face were distorted.

    "What did she say to you?" Lin Qiushi asked Ruan Nanzhu as soon as he came back.

    Lin Qiushi glanced at him: "You."

    Ruan Nanzhu: "Me?"

    Lin Qiushi: "What did you do with Gu Longming in the afternoon?"

    Ruan Nanzhu and Gu Longming looked at each other, Gu Longming finally couldn't hold back and said, "Yu Linlin, why didn't you tell me earlier."

    Lin Qiushi said, "Tell you what?"

    Gu Longming: "Tell you that your lover is a man."

    Lin Qiushi: "Does gender matter?"

    Gu Longming said blankly: "It's not important, but it's not important..."

    Lin Qiushi: "It doesn't matter whether you say it or not, it's going to get dark today, let's go and go to bed." After saying this, Ruan Nanzhu took Lin Qiushi's hand, leaned against his shoulder, and pointed at him. Gu Longming smiled subtly.

    Gu Longming: "..." Zhu Meng begs you to stop laughing, you really laugh like a demon concubine who brings disaster to the country and the people, and Lin Qiushi is the emperor who became incomparably stupid because of the demon concubine.

    Lin Qiushi glanced at Ruan Nanzhu and made eye contact with him: Is it fun?

    Ruan Nanzhu: Fun is dead.

    Lin Qiushi: Then you continue to play.

    Ruan Nanzhu: I love you, my baby.

    Ruan Nanzhu, the drama star with one more audience, was obviously completely addicted to the script at this time and couldn't extricate himself.

    The author has something to say: because was writing the publication of the Five Elements recently, accidentally typed the wrong name _(:з"∠)_ There are so many Ruan Nanzhu operas today.
