Death Spiral [Infinite Flow]

Lian Qiao waited quietly in the dark, and after an unknown time, there were finally light footsteps in the corridor.

He felt a little at ease, pulled the quilt and closed his eyes, pretending that nothing happened, and pretending to sleep well. The bedroom door was opened and closed, and soon, Lian Qiao felt someone approaching. A warm little hand nudged him gently.

"Lian Qiao, wake up."

The voice was low and soft, like a lover's caress.

Even Joe pretended not to hear. The man called a few more times, and when Lian Qiao didn't respond, he sighed lightly. Just listening to the rustling of the fabric, I don't know what he's doing.

Are you undressing? Do you want to sleep with me?

Lian Qiao's heart beat violently, and she couldn't help but get excited. Just when he was about to lose it, the smell of barbecue rushed into the tip of his nose.

Huh?

Lian Qiao opened his eyes in surprise, and his lips suddenly touched something warm and fragrant. He licked it subconsciously - it was a roast leg of lamb!

"Eat." Xu Rendong said softly.

Lian Qiao carefully got up from the bed, trying not to make a sound. He took the roast leg of lamb and asked inexplicably, "Brother Honeysuckle, where did you get it?"

In the darkness, he couldn't see Xu Rendong's face, but he felt that Xu Rendong smiled at him.

"I stole it from the boss." Xu Rendong whispered, "I'll explain it to you tomorrow."

"Okay." Lian Qiao nodded, grabbed the roast leg of lamb, and nibbled happily.

After a slight noise, Xu Rendong next to him also sat on the bed. In the darkness, even people close at hand could not see clearly, but even Qiao could feel that Xu Rendong was holding something in his hand and was eating. He suddenly felt that they were like two students living on campus, who ate supper secretly after the lights were turned off, and they didn't dare to make a sound like thieves, for fear of being discovered by the house management.

Lian Qiao couldn't help raising the corner of his mouth, looking at Xu Rendong without any scruples in the dark. Although he couldn't see anything, hearing the faint chewing and swallowing sounds from that direction gave Lian Qiao an indescribable excitement.

The seed of anxiety in my heart grows recklessly in the dark of night.

Just when Lian Qiao was about to be unable to restrain himself and wanted to do something, Xu Rendong suddenly asked, "Have you finished eating?"

Lian Qiao: "Yeah."

Xu Rendong: "Give you a handkerchief, wipe it."

Lian Qiao was taken aback. He felt that Xu Rendong was groping in the dark, but couldn't find him. So he stretched out his hand intuitively and quickly grabbed Xu Rendong's hand. It was the tender, tender hand of a child.

Lian Qiao suddenly froze as if she was electrocuted.

Xu Rendong put the handkerchief to him and quickly retracted. Lian Qiao held the handkerchief with Yu Wen in her hand, and thought blankly: What am I doing... am I in heat with a three-year-old child?

A five-year-old, to a three-year-old? that's terrible.

Physiological discomfort flooded Lian Qiao like a tide. In the strong self-blame, he spent a sleepless night.

The next day, Lian Qiao woke up with a pair of heavy dark circles under his eyes and saw Ye Qingliu feeding the baby rice cereal. The little fat man asked a question about the rice paste that suddenly appeared. Ye Qingliu spread his hands, saying that I didn't know, and it was on the table when I woke up.

Little Fatty: "Only rice cereal? Nothing else?"

Ye Qingliu: "Only rice paste."

Little Fatty was not satisfied with this answer, frowned and muttered: "Impossible, I seemed to smell barbecue last night... Could it be that I was dreaming?"

Lian Qiao turned her head guiltily, but Xu Rendong said with certainty, "You are dreaming."

Little Fatty wanted to ask other people, even Qiao quickly interjected: "Yes, I also smell the food, but I am a hot pot."

Ye Qingliu gave him a contemptuous look: "Dream you, where does this kind of hot pot come from?"

It was just dawn, and the children woke up one after another, discussing what to do today. Before long, the old nun suddenly appeared at the door of the room.

Xu Rendong caught a glimpse of the nun, and immediately stood in front of Ye Qingliu, quietly blocking the old nun's sight with her body, preventing her from seeing the rice paste in Ye Qingliu's hand. The old nun looked around with her cloudy eyes like dead fish, and her withered lips twitched.

"You little bastards, come out for me!" She tapped the door frame with a pointer and said sharply, "Don't linger, come downstairs with me!"

All the children looked at each other anxiously, no one dared to disobey the NPC, they all followed downstairs obediently.

When she came to the living room on the first floor, the old nun pointed at the blackboard and asked who stole the chalk. The children were very surprised. After all, everyone only entered the monastery last night, and no one in the dark did not notice that there was such a blackboard in the corner of the living room, and who would come to steal chalk?

Xu Rendong stood silently in the crowd without saying a word.

The old nun questioned to no avail, and sneered: "Hehe, okay! You little bastards, you don't want to say yes! Then you will be punished together! You stand up for me one by one! Reach out!"

She fiddled with the pointer in her hand and stared at the children with sullen eyes, obviously not showing mercy. The children looked at each other, and a few timid and honest ones were already standing obediently, waiting for the old nun to punish him.

Xu Rendong suddenly noticed that the little fat man glanced at him, that look was not right, Xu Rendong suddenly felt tight. Sure enough, the little fat man turned his head to the old nun and said, "Mother nun, actually last night..."

Xu Rendong interrupted him calmly: "Last night, the baby seemed to be hungry and kept crying."

The little fat man was stunned for a moment, squinting his eyes and looking at Xu Rendong. When the old nun heard that the baby was crying, she showed a subtle expression and asked with great interest, "Oh? Did you feed it?"

Xu Rendong looked directly at the gray eyes of the old nun: "I just fed some water and coaxed it for a long time before I didn't cry. So I think, today, we will punish a few of us. Is it? It's so small that it won't hold up if you don't feed it today."

There was a grim smile on the face of the old nun: "You are very thoughtful. Well, then I will spare you this time. There is milk powder in the kitchen, go and feed it. !"

After she finished speaking, she walked upstairs slowly. The children watched her back, and it wasn't until she returned to her room and locked the door with a click that everyone's mood relaxed a little.

The little fat man suddenly grabbed Xu Rendong's collar: "You took the chalk, right! I told you not to act without authorization! You almost killed us just now!"

Xu Rendong lied without hesitation: "It's not me."

The little fat man said angrily: "It's not you who else!"

Lian Qiao stepped forward and persuaded: "It's all my own, why do you move your feet as soon as you come up? You let him go first, and you have something to say."

The little fat man glared at him, still holding on to Xu Rendong. Xu Rendong frowned and was about to resist, but Lian Qiao took the lead and stepped on the little fat man's feet!

"Ouch!" The little fat man was stepped on his big toe, jumping up in pain, and his hands naturally loosened.

Lian Qiao withdrew her foot innocently: "Look, how bad it is to move, how hurtful it is."

All the children: "..." You really think you are a five-year-old!

Xu Rendong was amused by Lian Qiao's childish behavior. He suddenly discovered that Lian Qiao had a lot of insidious tricks. Although it was not on the stage, it was effective! Xu Rendong couldn't help but gave him a compliment in his heart, and then said to everyone: "Okay, don't waste any more time. While the NPC is away, let's explore separately."

Xu Rendong brought his team to the kitchen on the first floor, and pretended to rummage through the boxes, and soon found the milk powder bag.

Ye Qingliu came over and said, "Is this the milk powder the old aunt said?" Ye Qingliu broke the baby's fingers out of its mouth and whispered, "It's unsanitary, don't eat your hands and hands."

"I suspect this is a trap." Xu Rendong pondered, "When the old nun mentioned milk powder, the expression on her face was not right, she looked like she was waiting for a good show. The corporal punishment will not punish us anymore, we just go back to our room and hide, no matter how you look at it, there is a problem."

Mengxin suddenly realized, and they all said that it is fortunate that you are thoughtful, otherwise we will be fooled.

Xu Rendong breathed a sigh of relief, this lie was finally over. He put away the milk powder, and when he looked up, he met Shanglian Qiao's thoughtful eyes.

Xu Rendong remembered that he promised to give Lian Qiao an answer, so he walked to Lian Qiao and whispered, "I'll take you to a place."

Lian Qiao's eyes lit up.

Xu Rendong separated the crowd, and Lian Qiao came to the front of the white wall at the end of the living room corridor alone, then took out the chalk and began to draw the door on the wall. Lian Qiao suppressed his excitement, and looked around for him, and kept mumbling: "Is there a boss here? Brother Rendong, you are really amazing, this is the first day, and you have also found food. Yes, the boss has also been found. How much did you do last night?"

Xu Rendong smiled and said nothing. Until four white lines form a box on the wall, a wonderful change occurs. The chalk line quickly corroded the wall like a chemical liquid, and the depressions of the handwriting quickly turned into crevices. Xu Rendong pushed it gently, and the rectangular wall was pushed open like a door, revealing the unfathomable black hole behind the wall.

"Wow..." Lian Qiao exclaimed in amazement, "I have seen this kind of design in the game, but I didn't expect to see it in reality, the effect is so great! It has the feeling of fantasy children's literature. !"

Just as he stretched his neck and looked into the black hole, Xu Rendong suddenly took out a chicken leg and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Lian Qiao is inexplicable: "I'm not hungry."

Xu Rendong: "Oh, then you can eat a chicken leg."

Lian Qiao's mouth was suddenly stuffed with a chicken leg, and his face was suddenly stunned. But under Xu Rendong's earnest gaze, he still ate the chicken leg honestly and burped.

Xu Rendong nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's go in."

Lian Qiao thought to himself: Today's boss is really strange, addicted to feeding all kinds of meat. What kind of hobby is this?

It's puzzling.

Two children, one big and one small, climbed into the cave, and the stone door drawn with chalk quickly closed behind them. Like a drop of water falling into the lake, the crack of the door quickly merged with the uneven stone wall, and the traces of chalk were no longer to be found.

Lian Qiao stroked the stone wall and praised: "It's like a fairy tale..."

Xu Rendong found that this time Lian Qiao was much more verbose and more lively than when he came last time. Of course, the last time they came here when all the other teammates were dead, of course they couldn't be in a good mood. At this time, Lian Qiao had just started exploring and had not experienced pain and torture yet. His curiosity about the world was far greater than his fear. He walked into the cave where the monster was hiding like a child exploring a rockery.

Xu Rendong suddenly developed a strong desire for protection. He raised the kerosene lamp and walked forward, just as he was about to instruct Lian Qiao to follow him, Lian Qiao suddenly took the kerosene lamp from his hand and walked in front.

Xu Rendong was taken aback.

Lian Qiao, who was a head taller than him, raised the kerosene lamp high, and the warm yellow dispelled the darkness ahead. His free other hand was slightly raised in the direction of Xu Rendong, palm facing up, as if waiting for Xu Rendong to put something into his palm.

Xu Rendong: "???" What do you want?

He looked at Lian Qiao's hand, thought for a moment, and put the remaining half of the chalk into Lian Qiao's hand.

Lian Qiao: "???"

He glanced at Xu Rendong in surprise, and then, for some unknown reason, he gasped for breath and said with a dry smile: "Ahaha, uh, um! Yes, I I just want to use chalk... Honeysuckle, you are so witty! You are considerate! I just want to see what magic is in this chalk, how can you make a door with your bare hands... Ahahahaha..."

Xu Rendong looked at his exaggerated reaction and said earnestly: "I'm going to see the boss soon, I know you're very excited. But you'd better calm down, it's very dangerous ahead."

"..." Lian Qiao was speechless for a moment, and nodded with a sad expression.
