Doomsday Wonderland

The idea that "I have to compete with the replica in speed" disappeared after Lin Sanjiu played hide and seek twice more.

In the second game of hide-and-seek, she shouted "Found it". There were only three words, and she almost finished the words in one roll of her tongue. It only took a fraction of a second; in the third game, she shouted even more words. It was short, with only two words "here" - but no matter how fast she shouted or how few words she shouted, the statue would always be exchanged before she finished speaking.

After losing three times in a row and losing 15% of his physical strength, Lin Sanjiu did not dare to act rashly anymore. In order to preserve and recover her strength as much as possible, she simply sat down on the spot and slowly calmed down the panting caused by the sudden loss of strength.

In each game of hide-and-seek, she was only given a minute or two to search; as soon as she lost, the next game would begin immediately... She had to delay them for a while to give herself some time to think and rest.

"You don't call this hide-and-seek at all," she shouted at the child statue. "You and I both know that what I found is the right target. Aren't you cheating? How can I possibly win like this?"

The statue of a child stood beside the pillar, its stiff, white plaster face staring into the air.

The voice of questioning fell, but it remained silent, neither answering nor announcing the start of the next round, as if she was asking a real statue.

Asking questions about dungeon rules seems to be completely ignored...

Lin Sanjiu looked back at the instructor on the other side of the bridge - he was also frowning, as if he couldn't figure out how to win the hide-and-seek. He has not forgotten his job, and still encourages: "There is no perfect way, as long as you observe carefully, there will definitely be a way."

nonsense.

If the small dungeons in the Grand Palace of Bewilderment were all generated from the narrations of the evolvers, then the person who told the old man at the door about the "Court of the Colossus" dungeon would naturally have found a way to escape smoothly... The question is, what way? Where should she start?

"I let you rest for more than ten seconds, that's enough, right?" The child statue said suddenly, "The fourth game of hide-and-seek——"

"Wait!" Lin Sanjiu shouted hurriedly: "I ask for a little more rest. Once my strength has recovered, I can play a few more games with you, right?"

The child statue did not speak. The female statue carrying the kettle suddenly put her hands on her mouth, raised her plaster shoulders, and said with a very standard pronunciation: "Hehe."

Lin Sanjiu had goosebumps on her skin.

"Of course, of course," said the child statue, "for every hour of play, you are allowed five minutes of rest. Any time you lose will be deducted from the five minutes. Do you want to use your rest time now?"

The three games of hide and seek just now probably didn't even take ten minutes in total. There is only a five-minute break, and it must be used at critical moments - Lin Sanjiu quickly shook his head.

After playing for an hour, he was only willing to give him a five-minute break; it didn't seem like he was trying to let people take a break, but it seemed like he was trying to prolong the torturing time as much as possible.

"Ha, let me just say... Then I announce that the fourth round of hide and seek begins, and your target is the fish-tailed male statue!"

You don't even need to look for it, you can see it standing behind a pillar - the pillar can only block half of its fish tail; the small building-like statue raises its hands in mid-air and covers its eyes, as if it is itself If Lin Sanjiu couldn't see it, Lin Sanjiu couldn't see it.

"Where is it..." Lin Sanjiu sat by the bridge farthest from the statue, motionless, trying to delay time by looking for opportunities. "It's really hard to find."

Pointing out where the target is hiding obviously doesn't work.

Perhaps after knowing which statue is to be swapped with the target, describe where the replacement statue is hiding?

After the idea gradually formed in her mind, she stared at the male statue with a thick beard and fish tail, and shouted: "I found it——"

Sure enough, just like the previous three rounds, in just four words, the statue of the man with a thick beard and fish tail had collapsed into pieces of plaster on the ground; the one that turned into pieces together with it was hiding behind the trees on the other side of the courtyard. statue of a curly-haired man. After the two largest statues collapsed at the same time, the broken gypsum blocks almost submerged the entire courtyard floor, as if a wave of gypsum pieces had surged across the courtyard floor.

Lin Sanjiu's heart jumped loudly, and the half-premeditated sentence quickly slipped from the tip of her tongue: "Behind the bushes!"

In order to speak as fast as possible, she devoted all her attention to these five words at that moment - she was afraid that she would not be able to speak the words clearly and give the statue a chance to deny it - five The word flashed by, and when she came to her senses again, all the broken plaster blocks in the courtyard had re-condensed into the shape of a statue.

Amidst the thin and false laughter, she raised her eyes and stared blankly at the statue in the courtyard.

"Wrong again," said the child statue hiding behind the trees, "5% of your physical strength will be deducted!"

The fish-tailed man statue that should have swapped places with the curly-haired man statue and was hiding behind the trees now took the place of the child statue and fell flat on the ground; it seemed to be trying to hide its head under the bench, but because It was so big that it lifted the bench off the ground. Such a big bench was draped over its face like a handkerchief.

When she seized the opportunity to complete the second half of the sentence, the statue of the fish-tailed man behind the trees had just been moved and had already changed its position with the statue of the child?

She could clearly feel as if another piece of her energy had been bitten off, leaving a black hole of emptiness.

Lin Sanjiu suppressed the anger that stabbed into his heart.

...No matter how you think about it, this copy looks like a dead end.

"What kind of fun is this? Aren't you kidding me?" She bit her lip and said nothing, but the instructor on the other side of the bridge protested, "You are changing positions one by one. This is reinventing the wheel. Or are you playing hide and seek?"

The child statue turned a deaf ear and continued: "Then, let's continue with the fifth round -"

The instructor's words just now suddenly hit Lin Sanjiu's mind.

...reinvent it?

This word is like a fingernail scratching on stockings, evoking silky associations.

"Wait!" She blurted out and then tried to polish the vague feeling in her mind into a clear idea.

"What do you want to do again?" The child statue seemed impatient, UU reading www. uｕａａｎｎ “If you delay any longer, your five minutes of rest time will be deducted.”

"No, it's nothing," Lin Sanjiu said with a faint excitement of finally finding the first breakthrough, "You continue."

In the fifth game, there was no surprise. She once again found the wrong target and was deducted another 5% of her physical strength.

But this time, Lin Sanjiu completely forgot about her physical strength being eaten away bit by bit; all her attention was focused on the large pieces of plaster that flooded the courtyard floor after the statue shattered.

The target in the fifth game is the curly-haired male statue, and its place is replaced by the female statue carrying a flower basket. After they shattered, the gypsum blocks all over the ground rolled up into a high wave from the courtyard almost in the blink of an eye. She watched helplessly as the wave quickly turned into a wave in the courtyard on the other side. The appearance of the statue of the curly-haired man—of course, all this happened before she could finish her words.

Everything was the same as before; but for the first time, Lin Sanjiu had a question that she should have asked herself long ago.

Why do these statues have to be broken into pieces of plaster first?

I have recently fallen in love with old songs from the 1980s. After listening to CarelessWhisper once, they get stuck in my head and I can’t get rid of them. Paired with an oversized suit with shoulder pads, I feel like I can travel back in time without any sense of inconsistency... Speaking of old songs, there is a very interesting little knowledge. When giving CPR first aid to someone, how often should you press the chest? It just matches the rhythm of an old song, that old song is, stayingalive.

PS: I just want to know how people in the 1980s made their hair so puffy.
