Chapter 6 Escape from Heaven
Xia Xiqing originally thought that the so-called escape room to reality show was to build a semi-open recording studio, throw the guests in it, and a lot of VJs to follow. .
Who knew that things were not what he thought. They were not even told what kind of secret room it was, so they were blindfolded with a black cloth and taken to a certain place. Before leaving, the director specially instructed, "Before starting the machine, Please don't speak."
I felt like I was being held by two people and walked for a long time, and then I was arranged to sit on a chair, thinking that this was the end, but I didn't expect the other party to use a rope to tie him firmly, unable to move, vaguely Hearing the sound of metal colliding, his wrists froze.
His hands were shackled and bent over his chest.
If it weren't for the fact that it was a show, Xia Xiqing would have suspected that he had been kidnapped.
He now understands what the director has been saying just now, "This show is all about authenticity, and the staff will never interfere, so we don't know what will happen to everyone here."
Zhou Ziheng vaguely heard the footsteps of several people. His hands were tied with ropes, slumped above his knees, and the ankles of his feet were wrapped tightly, unable to move. Just when he felt puzzled, the black cloth on his eyes was untied by the staff.
The sudden clarity of sight brought him a strong sense of discomfort, Zhou Ziheng narrowed his eyes slightly. There is a closed room in front of you, which is different from many horror escape rooms. The field of vision here is still bright, and the roof casts dim lights. Except for the two rows of bookshelves by the wall, many furniture are covered. Covered with a white cloth, it looks a little strange.
But none of this was enough to surprise him.
Because the scene in front of me at the moment is more unexpected than the secret room.
Two hours ago, Xia Xiqing, who was in the studio gags with himself, is now tied to another chair, and the two are no more than half a meter apart.
I don't know if it was to cater to the effect of the previous Internet popularity, under the arrangement of the show team, Xia Xiqing still wore a white shirt and black suit pants this time, his eyes were covered with black cloth, and a strand of hair on his forehead was cut from the half tied hair. He escaped from the middle and hung down on the side of his face, the fine strands of hair swept across his thin and delicate jawline.
The brilliance of his eyes was wiped off by the black cloth, and the small mole on the tip of his nose became more prominent, making him helpless and well-behaved.
Although Zhou Ziheng is very clear, these two words do not belong to him.
The handcuffs between his wrists glowed with a cold metallic luster in the dim light, and his wrist bones were slightly raised, as if they could collide with the metal to make a crisp sound. The rope was like a winding snake, wrapped around his body, tightly, as if the traces of the muscles under the fabric could be seen.
The cover of the black cloth prevented Zhou Ziheng from seeing those frivolous eyes. This seemed to be the first time he had unscrupulously observed the man in front of him, this man who was hypocritical and cunning in his heart.
He looks a little pitiful, Zhou Ziheng thought from the bottom of his heart, or in other words, people have a strange desire to make him more pitiful.
I don't know why, but at this moment can suddenly understand the psychology of some people with special hobbies.
"The game officially begins." A slightly metallic voice emerged from the top of the head through the voice changer, interrupting the wild delusions in Zhou Ziheng's mind.
"Welcome to "Get Out", now, please forget your original identities. In this game, you are players trapped in a secret room. Please note that the secret room here is not just one, but There are many rooms that are connected, which means that when you open the door of the secret room you are in, you will enter a new secret room. There may be people trapped like you here. Escape all the secret rooms and leave this room in the shortest possible time. The person who builds the house will be the winner of this game and will get the highest points, and the points earned by the rest of the players will be calculated according to the escape time, and one point will be reduced for every extra ten minutes."
Enough for middle school. Xia Xiqing smiled, but the sound did not end.
"One thing needs to be explained. The biggest difference between "Escape from the World" is that this is not a simple escape room reality show. There is a killer among many players. Unlike ordinary players, he needs to hide his identity and has the right to "kill" "Dead" players, the points of the killed players are cleared in this round, and the killer can only kill one player in the first episode. Of course, ordinary players can also use reasoning and judgment to find out the "killer" you think in your heart. When players gather together, they can be "killed" by voting. Once "killer" becomes the final winner, every ordinary player in the game is equivalent to death, the points of this round are cleared, and the killer gets double integral."
"During the game, you need to make full use of your ingenuity to think and reason. If you encounter a puzzle that is helpless, you can advance the time to exchange clues, which means that your escape time will increase and your points will decrease accordingly. .The player with the highest total points will be the champion of the season and receive the mystery prize."
"Each of you has no equipment to assist in decryption. There is only a modified mobile phone. This mobile phone has four functions: first, to receive information from the program group. Second, to advance the time to buy clues. Third, in the first player Start the timer after clearing the level. Fourth, submit the list of suspects and complete the secret ballot execution. Note: Players cannot communicate with each other using mobile phones, you can only communicate on the spot, if you want. The rules are introduced."
The voice paused, followed by three ticks that resembled a countdown of a clock.
three.
two.
one.
"Now, the game begins."
Hearing these words, Xia Xiqing breathed a sigh of relief, slumped on the chair and tilted his head back. Zhou Ziheng looked at his every move and understood that he definitely didn't know his existence now, such a "peeping" seemed aboveboard.
Although in Zhou Ziheng's moral view, such an approach is not worthy of encouragement, but Xia Xiqing is an exception. He is insidious and cunning, and has no shame or lower limit. Some behavioral patterns will always fail uncontrollably.
Xia Xiqing tried to reach the black cloth on his eyes with his hands, but his arm was entangled and he couldn't lift it up. He tried several times but failed. He couldn't help but sighed and said softly to himself, "See everything No, will you die in the first issue?"
Zhou Ziheng wanted to laugh a little, but for some reason, observing Xia Xiqing now seems to have diluted the urgency of escaping from the secret room.
He couldn't see at all, and couldn't move his hands and feet. Xia Xiqing could only tap the ground lightly with his heels, leaned his head back, leaned lazily on the chair, and didn't speak. The room was quiet, eerily quiet. Zhou Ziheng deliberately didn't make a sound, obviously he was in a trapped state, and helping each other was the best policy, not to mention that they were still recording the show, they couldn't keep going like this, but now he just wanted to watch Xia Xiqing's jokes.
Probably because he is really bad, so in Zhou Ziheng's heart, such a person deserves to be rectified.
An illusion of acting for the heavens.
What he could not have imagined was that the man who had been so lazy before that he almost gave up struggling suddenly sat up straight and sat directly facing Zhou Ziheng, as if the eyes covered by the black cloth could see through. Barrier, staring at him intently.
That's right, just "watching" him.
Zhou Ziheng frowned, he was sure that he did not reveal any sound.
Suddenly, Xia Xiqing's head was tilted, and the corner of his mouth raised a very gentle arc.
"Help me take off the blindfold."
impossible. He was clearly invisible.
