Among the four people, Sima Mu was the most impatient. He strode up the steps and pushed open the door of the Zen room.
"There is indeed someone!"
The Zen room is about half the size of a basketball court. There are several futons on the floor and an incense table is placed on the north side facing the gate.
There is a Buddhist niche on top, which contains a faceless Buddha statue.
On the west side of the Zen room, there is another inner room.
Lin Bai came over, glanced around the room, and saw fourteen people.
These people all have this kind of vine noose around their necks.
They looked desperate and were not in the mood to speak at all. When they saw someone coming, they just glanced at it and lowered their heads.
"What's going on with this thing? Can it strangle people?"
Sima Mu roared.
No one answered.
"Fuck, are you deaf?"
Sima Mu tightened his grip on the sickle and wanted to kill someone.
[There are delicious delicacies in the inner room of the west wing. You must not miss it, otherwise you can delete your account and try again.]
Gululu!
Lin Baici's stomach was growling, and he now felt so hungry that he wanted to chew off the door frame and eat it.
"Why didn't you tell us there was danger here?"
Xu Xiu complained that as long as these people reminded her, she felt she could leave here in time before the vines got wrapped around her neck.
A potbellied man glanced at the old aunt and gloated: "Why should we remind you?"
"you……"
The old aunt was very angry. Isn't this harming others but not benefiting oneself?
"You deserve a beating, don't you?"
Sima Mu didn't look like a wounded man at all. He had a violent temper and planned to beat someone up to let him know why the flowers were so red.
"Everyone, stop arguing. Now it's time to work together and figure out a way to escape from here!"
A short girl tried to persuade him to make peace.
She wore a blue pleated skirt on the lower body and a white short-sleeved shirt on the upper body. It was a little see-through and the straps of her underwear could be seen.
He wears a red bow tie on his chest and a pair of black round-toe shoes.
This is the popular sailor suit COS outfit.
Lin Baici frowned slightly: "Why does this girl look familiar?"
"Yueyu, leave them alone!"
The speaker was a young woman with short hair, in her twenties, average appearance, wearing jeans, white shoes, and a hooded sun protection shirt.
"You can't give up like this, right?"
Hua Yueyu sighed, she was only nineteen years old, it was the most beautiful season of her life, and she didn't want to die yet.
"Are you the Hua Yueyu from Shark Live?"
When Lin Baici heard the girl with white shoes calling her Yueyu, she suddenly remembered.
He seemed to have seen this girl live streaming games on Shark Channel.
"Yes, you are my fan?"
Hua Yueyu tried his best to smile.
Lin Baici shook his head.
Hua Yueyu is the first-line anchor of Shark Channel, the most popular live broadcast platform at present. She mainly does game guides, house dancing, singing, and occasionally outdoor store visits.
At the same time, she is also a UP owner, posting videos on websites such as Douyin and Bilibili, and has a total of five million fans.
"Oh, then you can watch more of my live broadcasts in the future. It will definitely bring you a lot of fun!"
Hua Yueyu took the opportunity to gain fans, but her enthusiasm waned at the thought that she might not survive today.
Why!
There is no chance in this life to earn 100 million and enjoy life after wealth and freedom.
"Look at this shit, I'm going to die today!"
The fat-bellied man sneered.
"Do you know what's going on?"
Lin Baici pulled the vine lasso around his neck.
"When the meteor hit me, I fell into a coma. When I woke up, I saw a group of people, so I, Sister Li, and Brother Gu followed them and hid here together!"
Huayueyu has a small round face. When talking, a small tiger tooth will appear on the left side of its mouth, which is very cute.
Sister Li is the short-haired young woman wearing white shoes. Brother Gu is sitting next to her. She is not very old and has a Canon camera hanging on her chest. She is obviously Huayueyu's photographer.
"Everyone had rested for less than ten minutes when a noose woven from unknown grass suddenly appeared around their necks. We discovered that when the noose was tightened, we must immediately enter the inner room of the Zen room, otherwise we would be strangled.
die!"
This is still the rule summarized by Hua Yueyu.
"Can't you run?"
The old aunt's voice was trembling, and she still had her last hope.
"You can't run away. As soon as you leave the courtyard gate, your neck will be strangled immediately!"
Little Sister Li grabbed her hair in despair. There is nothing more cruel than waiting to die.
"What's in the inner room of that Zen room?"
Jin Yingzhen asked: "Has anyone come out?"
"have no idea!"
Hua Yueyu shook his head: "From the beginning to now, seven waves of people have entered, ten at a time, and no one has come out!"
"All dead?"
Sima Mu's scalp was numb.
"should!"
Hua Yueyu is the calmest among these people and observes very carefully.
She wore a GoPro action camera on her collar. Unfortunately, no electronic equipment could be used in the Shenxu. Otherwise, she would have wanted to watch the video to see if there was any key information for her escape.
"Didn't you say someone died outside? I didn't see a body!"
Lin Baici needs more information.
"The bodies of those who were strangled to death disintegrated into dust in less than three minutes."
Sister Li interrupted.
"ah?"
Xu Xiu panicked even more and hugged Lin Baici's arm.
"Nothing that happens in the Divine Ruins is surprising!"
Sima Mu didn't care about the corpses: "The most urgent task is how to get rid of this noose?"
"God, what do you think?"
Lin Baici asked in his heart.
【Hungry!】
This answer is completely irrelevant.
Lin Baici was about to ask Hua Yueyu for some more information, when a man wearing sunglasses jumped up like a rabbit whose tail was stepped on.
The old aunt was startled and hurriedly hid behind Lin Bai resigned.
"Their noose tightens!"
Hua Yueyu touched the noose around his neck, but it didn't tighten.
call!
With good luck, I can live a little longer, but this should be my last chance to escape. If I can't think of a way, I have to go into the inner room of the meditation room.
"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"
The man in sunglasses cursed, but there was nothing he could do. If he ran outside, he would definitely die. If he entered the inner room, he might still have a chance to survive.
The ten unlucky ones who were selected walked into the inner room tremblingly.
Just as Lin Baici was about to get over and take a look, there was a bang on the door.
Closed.
"Haha, I can live a few more minutes!"
The fat-bellied man showed a self-deprecating wry smile, but he didn't want to die after all, so he took the initiative to talk to Lin Baici: "Hey, do you have any idea?"
He could tell that the new arrivals followed this handsome boy's lead.
"No!"
Lin Baici walked to the Buddhist niche, observed the faceless Buddha, and at the same time thought about the possible crisis he might encounter next and the reasonable way to deal with it.
Jin Yingzhen boldly walked to the inner door and listened, but unfortunately he couldn't hear anything.
"I've done everything you've done and found nothing!"
Hua Yueyu sat down, bent her legs, hugged her knees with her hands, and rested her chin on her knees.
Why!
We are all ordinary people trapped in Shenxu. I actually expected them gods to come down to earth and turn the tide. I was stupid!
Lin Baici carefully checked around the room and was about to go to the courtyard to take a look when the noose around his neck suddenly tightened.
A pain spread from the neck, and there was a slight feeling of suffocation.
"Baici!"
The old aunt was frightened and cried again. I heard that people who were strangled would stick out their tongues for a long time.
"It's our turn!"
Brother Gu stood up, stroking the Canon camera on his chest, and was the first to walk into the Zen room.
"Let's go, there's no choice!"
Hua Yueyu took a deep breath, tried to cheer up, and prepared for the final struggle.
Lin Baici raised his wrist and glanced at the Rolex he picked up.
Six minutes passed before those people entered.
"Bai Ci, come into the Zen room!"
Sima Mu greeted.
Jin Yingzhen and the old aunt also came over early. They felt it was safer to be with Lin Baici.
Seeing this, the man with a big belly rolled his eyes and trotted over, following behind the four of them.
The inner room of the Zen room is not big, there is no furniture, there is only a futon for the monk to sit on when chanting sutras.
The futon was a bit old and slightly yellowed. There was a small fist-sized incense burner on it, and three sticks of incense were lit in the burner.
A wonderful fragrance filled the nose.
After everyone came in, the vine nooses around their necks immediately became loose.
"What now?"
Everyone looked at each other, confused.
"Is this incense burner a taboo object?"
Lin Baici stared at the incense burner, waiting for the god to comment on the food, but there was no sound in his mind.
Crunch!
The door closes automatically.
"Look!"
Jin Yingzhen shouted anxiously.
The white smoke that comes out after the incense burns turns into a line of faint handwriting.
'Sit in lotus position and listen to me reciting sutras. Those who can be as silent as ever and calm as if they were plain can reach the other shore!'
The writing appeared for three seconds and then quickly disappeared.
"What's the meaning?"
The big-bellied man looked confused.
"It seems like you want to listen to the scriptures?"
As Hua Yueyu spoke, he quickly sat down and assumed a cross-legged posture.
The floor was a little cold, making the female anchor shiver.
"Listen to the scriptures? Who knows this?"
The fat-bellied man is desperate. He is just a layman who likes big fish and meat and wants to go to the sauna and have his feet pinched every few days. He doesn't have the slightest bit of Buddha nature in him.
As soon as he finished speaking, the vine noose around his neck tightened again. He was so frightened that he quickly begged for mercy: "I listen, I listen. Can you start reading quickly?"
Not only the big-bellied man, but also Hua Yueyu, the vine and grass nooses of the others also tightened, causing a feeling of suffocation.
"what happened?"
Little Sister Li was very panicked.
"Sit down quickly and sit in lotus position!"
Lin Baici saw that Hua Yueyu was fine and understood.
Everyone must follow the instructions written by Xianxiang in order to escape death.
“What is sitting in lotus position?”
The pot-bellied man sat on the ground with his legs crossed, but found that the noose was still tightening, which made him vomit blood anxiously: "Who knows what you are saying!"
"That's what I do, first put my left foot on my right thigh, then my right foot on my left thigh!"
Demonstration of Huayueyu.
In order to be beautiful, she relied on her face to earn a living, learned yoga, meditated, and learned about this kind of content.
"Bai Ci, follow me!"
Xu Xiu also understood, but she was deceived by a fitness instructor. She spent 6,000 yuan and learned several postures in three months.
But now that she could help Lin Baici, the old aunt suddenly felt that six thousand yuan was worth it.
I'm finally useful!
Xu Xiu was worried that she would be abandoned by Lin Baici because she was too burdensome, but before she was happy for a few seconds, she saw that Lin Baici could also sit cross-legged.
"Oppa, can you do it?"
Jin Yingzhen could do it too. She looked at Lin Baici worriedly and even planned to help him personally.
"no problem!"
Lin Baici has read many miscellaneous books and has a wide range of knowledge.
The man with a big belly finally got into a cross-legged posture and loosened the noose around his neck. However, before he could remember to breathe a sigh of relief, melodious chanting began to sound in the meditation room.
