Lian Xiaolian's eyes emitted a faint green light in the dimness. After she sucked back a packet of saliva from her mouth with a "slurp", she added: "It would be better if there was salt."
"
When Lao Wang heard this, he released his hand from holding the brown rabbit, rummaged through his two trouser pockets, and then touched his back pocket before he regretfully remembered: "The lighter was filled with water, so I threw it away..."
"No matter, let's skin it first. If it's really not good, I'll eat it too!" Lian Xiaolian couldn't bear it any longer. He grabbed the motionless brown rabbit and threw it into his boyfriend's arms: "You have a knife, right?
Peel it off quickly!”
Zhong Junkai hesitated but did not take action.
"This is Miss Lin's rabbit..." he muttered, "I think it's better to forget it..." But before he finished speaking, there was a sudden roar in his stomach, interrupting the second half of the sentence.
Already.
He didn't dare lower his head to look at the rabbit in his arms. He was afraid that after looking at it, he would not be able to stop his crazy appetite. At this time, his stomach was being burned by waves of hunger - it was so long.
This was the first time since he was a child that he was so hungry.
"If we don't eat this rabbit, we will all starve to death." Lian Xiaolian's eyes suddenly widened strangely, "Do you have the heart to let me starve to death? Husband?"
Zhong Junkai gritted his teeth and said nothing.
"Hurry up! If you keep stalling, that woman will catch up..." Lian Xiaolian pushed him hard. Seeing that her boyfriend still didn't move, she couldn't help but cursed angrily: "You loser!"
It was the first time that his usually docile girlfriend spoke in such a tone - Zhong Junkai's shocked eyes had just cast on her, and Lian Xiaolian had already snatched the rabbit back, and he tremblingly reached out to take out Zhong Junkai's pocket. It wasn't her.
Her determination to eat rabbit was not enough, but the weakness caused by not eating for a long time had made her blood sugar drop to a dangerous level, and her head was spinning with dizziness.
From the beginning to the end, Lao Wang's hungry green eyes never left the rabbit. His condition was no better than that of Lian Xiaolian. His cheeks had sunk deeply, and even his belly had lost a lot of weight.
Lian Xiaolian successfully found a folding knife, her eyes flashed with excitement, and she flicked the blade open. She flattened the rabbit's belly to the sky, and stabbed it with the knife in her hand - right there
Just when everyone thought that the rabbit was finally going to be splattered with blood, a whip-like metal light suddenly swung from behind several people. Even Xiao Lian couldn't avoid it and was hit hard. He staggered and the knife hit him.
She immediately flew far away. Only then did a wound on her face slowly ooze blood.
Lian Xiaolian covered the wound on her face and roared behind her like a she-wolf: "You actually hurt my face!"
As if he had known for a long time that there would be pursuers coming to kill him, Lao Wang took advantage of this opportunity to pick up the rabbit on the ground and stuff it into his pocket. He turned around and was about to run away. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, he fell heavily.
The horse lay down. When he looked back, it turned out that Lian Xiaolian had grabbed his trousers and asked with a sinister expression: "Where do you want to take my food?"
At this moment, Lin Sanjiu's figure slowly walked out from the corner of the narrow aisle, still holding the mouthpart of the fallen species in his hand.
Although Lian Xiaolian's knife was knocked away in one fell swoop, her own condition was worse than anyone else - she felt that she had used a lot of strength in the attack just now, but Lian Xiaolian was only scratched on the face.
Lin Sanjiu took a few breaths. She tried hard to forget the feeling of weakness in her trembling legs and the burning hunger in her stomach.
I really want to eat something...
She supported the wall and said in a hoarse voice: "Put down the rabbit, or don't blame me for killing."
...Things started 10 minutes ago - no, 10 days ago.
After the second round of the game, the grid and light walls in the arena slowly melted away like ice cream, returning to its original half red and half white appearance - the only difference is that this time there is an extra one on one side.
On the other side of the corpse, there is something similar to a corpse, a dying person who cannot move.
The members of both the red and white teams looked bad and waited silently for Mr. Dian's introduction to the next game.
Only this time, Mr. Dian remained silent for an unexpectedly long time - just when everyone was confused and started to become a little commotion, countless walls suddenly rose on the ground -
The wall was like a sapling, gradually rising higher and higher in front of everyone's astonished eyes, until it turned into a towering wall with no end in sight. Looking along the thick black wall, you can see everything as far as the eye can see.
There are only narrow aisles one after another, as if there is no end.
Lin Sanjiu just stared at the wall for a while. When she heard Mr. Dian's voice and reacted, she was shocked to realize that there was no one around her.
A wall was created among the red team members, seeming to separate her from the rest.
"Well, this is the third round of the game - the mouse maze." Mr. Dian laughed and said: "This is a quite big maze. The red team is at the entrance on one side, and the white team is on the other side.
Entrance. The mission of this game is very simple. You only need to reach a certain cubicle in the maze to complete the mission, and you will receive a +1 point reward."
Round 3 - Mouse Maze
Game rules: none
How to play the game: The red and white teams start from their respective entrances. After the members arrive at a small compartment somewhere in the maze, regardless of the order, the team can get a +1 point reward.
"But - in this small compartment, there is a dinner table covered with white cloth, with food for four people on it. Only the person who arrives first can eat - haha, of course, if the person who arrives first
If you deliberately leave it uneaten, then people who come after you can also eat it..." Mr. Dian made himself laugh, "But would anyone really leave delicious food uneaten?"
Just kidding, no one would eat such suspicious so-called delicacies in such a messy place, right?
Lin Sanjiu had just cursed when she suddenly heard a "gurgling" sound coming from her stomach.
Eh?
"By the way, there is one thing I haven't told you yet." Mr. Dian's next tone made her feel something was wrong: "In this competition, there is actually a period of isolation from the outside world. Everyone should have heard about it.
"A day in heaven is a year on earth," or is it the story of Taro Urashima and the Dragon Palace under the sea?"
"One minute spent in the competition is a whole day in the outside world. Since everyone entered the game, it has been...well, 43 minutes. In other words, 43 days have passed in the outside world."
"In the third round of the game, I will cancel this time isolation. Although you are still in the game and you still spend the time in the game, your body will feel the same changes as the outside world..."
Mr. Dian seemed to explain a few more words, but Lin Sanjiu didn't hear it clearly - because she suddenly felt dizzy, her hands and feet were weak and she lost all strength, and she involuntarily slid along the wall to the ground. When her face touched the ground
When I got into the warm water, I suddenly woke up again.
At this time, Mr. Dian's voice came back to her ears again and turned into meaningful words: "...Ah, suddenly I feel the feeling of being hungry for 43 days. Isn't it very pleasant? I hope everyone can enjoy it.
Come on! After all, from now on, every minute, your body will weaken at the rate of "a day without eating"... But everyone has strengthened their physical fitness, and you will not be hungry if you don't eat for a month or two.
Death. It’s not okay to just continue to live like this – everyone must find the small compartment in the maze alive, where food for four people has been prepared!”
In other words, only the four people who find the dinner table first can survive?
"Also, please note that killing is not prohibited in this game, so please unite your teammates and be careful of your opponents." After saying this, Mr. Dian announced briskly: "Okay, then the game officially begins!
"
...After listening to Mr. Dian's nonsense announcement, Lin Sanjiu didn't dare to lie down on the ground for a second and hurriedly stood up.
Although what she possesses is not an ordinary "physical enhancement", but a more powerful "comprehensive physical increase", after all, she has been in a coma for a week before entering this dungeon, and all Hu Changzai feeds her are biscuit powder.
Liquid food made by soaking in water. When it comes to his physical condition at this time, Lin Sanjiu is no better than anyone else.
Looking around, there are only identical aisles in the maze, surrounded by tall black walls on both sides, twisting and turning, extending endlessly in different directions.
Lin Sanjiu wanted to turn back and join the people from the red team first, but no matter how hard she searched according to the direction in her memory, she could not find where the other people were. These high walls towered into the clouds, and there was absolutely no way to climb over them...
...and time was passing by minute by second, mercilessly devouring the little energy left in her body.
She sighed and had to give up her plan to meet the rabbit. She found a random direction by herself and walked forward.
It’s too terrible——
The two roads Lin Sanjiu took at the beginning turned into dead ends after a few minutes of walking - twice in a row, the road ahead turned into a wall, coldly blocking the way. Like this
The maze is already very physically demanding, let alone after not eating for dozens of days... Lin Sanjiu walked in a daze, unconsciously imagining the delicious food in the cubicle.
It was at this time that she suddenly heard a faint shout - the voice was very familiar to her, the tone was cursing, it was the brown rabbit - "I x! Why did you attack me!"
Due to the obstruction of many high walls, Lin Sanjiu couldn't hear clearly at all, and could only vaguely hear the word "eat".
All the blood in her body suddenly ran cold - Lin Sanjiu turned around and ran towards the direction of the sound. She gathered all the strength from nowhere and roared with all her strength: "How dare you touch it?"
In one moment, I will kill you!"
There was suddenly no sound from that direction.
After the old woman lost the duel in the last round of the game, the advanced ability she handed over happened to be Chen Fan's "Golden Finger". After Lin Sanjiu got the "Golden Finger" ability from the wooden box, she discovered that it was
Because my name is so special, I can only get some minor good luck.
However, this small amount of good luck came in handy at this time - Lin Sanjiu suddenly opened the golden finger, and the color of her right hand gradually changed in the dim path. She randomly picked a path and rushed in.
Thinking that this path actually led her to the red team members unobstructed——
Looking at the backs of Lao Wang and the others who were desperately running forward, Lin Sanjiu cut off her thoughts and chased after them. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
ps: I feel like this chapter is much more interesting to write! At least I don’t have the same feeling of “Oh, I’m tired of writing” in the previous chapters... What do you think?
I am working hard to write the update for everyone...because I am also coding a main website article at the same time, so the speed is a bit...uh...
By the way, if my main website is open, will you read it?
