Monument of Life and Death

  Chapter 503 Mask

  The four people gathered next to the TV and watched the fourth page reflected on the dark screen.

  Xiaolan simply turned the pen and paper from the drawer, and the three of them copied what they could see.

   "Qin Sicong, let's draw the fourth page." Xie Yan handed the pen to the fourth man named Qin Sicong.

  The man drew a strange picture with strokes on the blank sheet of paper.

  After finishing the drawing, the four people pondered the page of paper.

"What does it mean?…"

This picture is different from the previous pages. The odd-shaped rings are covered with the whole paper, and each ring has a few short lines emanating from the center. Other than that, there is nothing that can tell the shape. thing.

   Xiaolan seemed to think where she had seen this thing. She frowned and thought about it for a long time, but she still didn’t think of it. She shook her head and gave up, turning to look at other people, "Do you have any ideas?"

  Jieyan took the piece of paper, turned it over and looked at it, "It's too abstract."

  Qin Sicong was a little frustrated, he quietly looked at the other three people, did not dare to say anything.

  After all, I am a later one, and no one knows what the page I can see represents.

  "What shall we do next?" Baomu asked.

  Qin Sicong quickly sat up straight.

"We still need to find the remaining five," Xiaolan stretched out the five fingers of his right hand, "Otherwise, we will use this place as our base, Qin Sicong, stay here, and wait for us to find those five faces. During the day, we will use the pieces of...human flesh we got, as an excuse, to visit those people’s homes. Baomu and I were greeting each other at the door, and you will secretly find the place to hide your face, if it’s at night, We can only sneak into other people’s homes secretly. It must be another fierce battle..."

  Qin Sicong heard that his job is to watch the door, and immediately hesitated with some worry, "I...I can also go out with you..."

"At night, there must be a lot of people and more power," Xiaolan explained. "But if it's daytime, the identities of the three of us in the village are connected. Activities together will not arouse people's suspicion. Let's be together at night. When you go out, you will take care of the house during the day, so will you feel relieved?"

  Qin Sicong was said to have been on his mind, and suddenly blushed, "I...I don't believe you..."

  A few people smiled, and the atmosphere became a lot more harmonious.

   "This way we might still meet other players." Baomu said with a smile.

   Xiaolan nodded, "There is no limit to the number of people who can pass this level. I hope we can all pass the level successfully."

A trace of sadness crossed Qin Sicong's face, but the three of them did not notice.

"It's still daytime, so why don't we set off now," Xiaolan pointed out the window, "Go back to that house to get the meat first, and then proceed according to the plan... Don't worry, we will come back to find you when it gets dark, and then we will set off together. "

  Xiaolan comforted Qin Sicong intimately, and the three of them embarked on the way back.

  Jieyan took one of the three packs of meat in his hand, and the three people walked slowly along the street.

  Not long after, Baomu arched his nose and stopped behind a family’s yard.

  Xiaolan and Jieyan looked at Baomu.

   "Is this one?"

  "It was the first person to die." Baomu opened his eyes and said confidently.

   "Is that the one who stabbed to death in the pit that night?" Xiao Lan confirmed it again.

  Baomu nodded.

  The three people came to the front entrance of this family's yard. A woman in a bright pink coat was collecting clothes in the yard.

  "Is this really this?" Xie Yan asked in a low voice.

  Baomu did not respond, the woman saw them first.

   "Hey, why are you here?" The woman patted the last dress, smiled and said to the three of them, "Come in, come in..."

   Xiaolan smiled and walked into the yard.

  The first person to die was actually a girl.

The woman had a pure round face, and enthusiastically welcomed the three of them into the main house. In the living room was sitting a child in gray and blue short sleeves, who looked like a boy, but his facial features and face were almost the same as a woman. Unanimous.

  When the boy saw the guests coming, he quickly stood up and looked at them cautiously.

  Xieyan handed the meat in her hand to the woman, "This is for you."

  The woman looked at the piece of meat wrapped in the lotus leaf in her hand, she was a little surprised at first, "This is..."

   "This...we can't eat it," Xiaolan prevarication vaguely, "I'll give it to you."

  The woman’s eye sockets suddenly turned red, "This... how embarrassing..."

   "Oh, just stay," Xiaolan patted the woman on the shoulder, and looked indoors, "Are you the only two at home?"

  The woman sighed, "Who else can?..."

  This is easier.

  While the woman lowered her head to wipe her tears, the three exchanged glances, and Xie Yan quickly asked, "The one...I suddenly want to go to the bathroom."

   "Ah, oh, come on, Xiaowen, take your brother..." The woman turned and waved to his son.

   "No need, no need," Jieyan deliberately pretended to be in pain, clutching his stomach and ran into the depths of the house, "I can find it by myself, you can talk first..."

  After speaking, Jieyan disappeared.

  The boy looked at his mother helplessly, until the woman nodded and said "Sit down", and then sat back in the chair with peace of mind and continued reading.

Xiaolan and Baomu, as a couple coffee, chatted with women one after another. Xiaolan's Yu Guang saw Xie Yan's figure dangling from the back of the corridor, and hurriedly laughed a few times to attract women's ideas. .

  After a long time, the woman seemed to be a little skeptical, and Xiaolan's forehead also began to seep lightly.

   "That...or else I'll let Xiaowen take a look," the woman whispered, "It's been so long, will it be..."

"Who knows what's going on with this kid, don't worry, let Xiaowen read the book well, I'll go and look at the back." Xiaolan finally got an excuse, waved his hand and walked towards the corridor, and just walked out a few steps, he thought Yan hastily from behind The room ran over and gave her a gesture of success.

   "I didn't want you to go, I just saw it was getting dark..."

  The woman's voice sounded from behind, followed by Baomu's voice.

   "Yes, elder sister, we know, oh yes...we are coming soon...we must invite you and Xiaowen...you are more anxious than me..."

  Baomu's voice is very shy, it sounds like the yellow skirt, the bride-to-be, is digested well.

   "You can come out!" Xiaolan said loudly, while pulling Jieyan over, "If you don't let you eat so much at noon, you should eat so much. You deserve it..."

  After the three succeeded, they hurriedly bid farewell to the woman’s house, and when they were walking on the way back, the sky was getting darker.

   "Did you find it?" Xiaolan asked Jieyan in a low voice as he walked.

   "Of course," Jie Yan patted his pocket, "I have drawn everything, and I will go back and talk to you."

  The three of them returned to Qin Sicong's house as promised, knocked on the door, and Qin Sicong opened a gap first, and then quickly put the three into the yard.

   "I found something." Before the three of them could speak, Qin Sicong said anxiously.

  Jieyan was choked all of a sudden, and asked in a daze, "What?"

"Didn't you say that the clues to the cemetery were obtained from here? I thought maybe there are other things here. When you went out, I rummaged around the house," Qin Sicong showed what was in his hand To them, "I found this. I think it might be related to the history of the village."

  He holds a unique mask in his hand.

The mask is made of wood, the whole is painted with black ink, and the edges and corners are distinct. The mask has two diamond-shaped holes in the position of only two eyes. The diamond-shaped edges are sharp and the shape is slender, so the whole face gives people a kind of evil and unclear sense.

  "Where did you find this?" Xiaolan reached out and touched the surface of the mask, which felt very smooth.

   "Come with me," Qin Sicong walked to the back room, "It's a bit complicated to say."

  The three followed him to the horrible corpse of the old man.

   "I originally searched in simple places like drawers, but then I suddenly discovered that you look at his eyes..." Qin Sicong pointed to the old man's cloudy, bloodshot and angry eyes.

   "He seems to be looking there." He followed the old man's eyes and pointed to an old long-standing wardrobe next to the recliner.

  The three of them all looked at the top of the closet.

  "On the top of the closet, I found this." Qin Sicong shook the mask in his hand. "And what is even more strange is that when I found this mask, there was no dust on it."

  Jieyan stared at the mask for a while, and said, “Keep the mask first. Let’s take a look at the painting.”

   "Have you really found it?" Qin Sicong asked in surprise.

   "I'm going out," Jie Yan patted his chest, then took out a piece of paper from his arms, "It's all small problems."

"There are really only two people in her family. Guess where is the face hidden?" Jie Yan asked stupidly. Before anyone else could answer, he replied, "It was hidden in the photo of their family!" "

   "A group photo?"

"Yes, it's a group photo," Xie Yan nodded, "I had been looking for reflective things like water surface, glass and so on, but ha, when I walked to the door of her bedroom, a ray of sunset came in. I From an oblique angle, I found that the photos hung in her bedroom can also reflect light. Later I tried it with the booklet and found that it was really, but only from that angle, only that angle can see the reflective surface. From a perspective, it is just an ordinary group photo."

  Good risk, good risk.

  Xiaolan yelled in her heart, if there was no sunset, and if Jieyan hadn’t stood at that angle, then the trip would have been completely useless.

  "Fortunately, you are great." Xiaolan complimented.

  Xie Yan smiled, and the four of them looked at the paper in his hand.

  The brushstrokes on the paper are very scribble, and you can vaguely see the appearance of nine little people walking in a closed space on both sides.

   "Does the painting look like this?" Xiaolan asked in disgust.

  "Hey, I drew exactly the same as the picture reflected from the mirror frame," Jie Yan pointed to the piece of paper, "I have been comparing it for a long time after I finished painting, that's it."

   "It looks like we have arrived at a new place." Baomu said.

  Qin Sicong stretched out his hand and gestured for the two line segments, "Like some kind of cave."

  "The cave?" Xiaolan lowered her head and took a closer look. "It seems a bit..."

  But how to find this cave, the problem is still in the fourth picture. I don’t understand what that bunch of irregular circles are. Knowing that it’s a cave is of little use.

   "That's right," Qin Sicong asked casually, "Did you not find the player when you went out this time?...Just like me..."

   "Where are there any players?" Xie Yan answered casually, looking at the circle picture intently.

  Qin Sicong nodded without any emotion.

  Outside the window, the sky was completely dark. They had no time to rest. Then, it was time for the four of them to go out together as planned.

  Since Qin Sicong entered this mansion, he has not seen the village outside the fence very much. When he left the house, he immediately appeared sneaky.

  Four people are together, the goal is a little big, Baomu took them around several times, and finally stopped by the side of the family’s yard following the smell.

   "This?" Xiao Lan pointed to this family's house and asked lip-synchingly.

  Baomu nodded solemnly.

  Everyone hesitated for a few seconds.

  The advantage of starting at night is that you don’t have to bear the consequences of lying and being exposed.

The disadvantage of    is that if you encounter the maternal body transformation, you will have to challenge their combat effectiveness and escape speed.

   was the first Xiaolan to climb over the fence of the yard and get into the yard.

   Several other people also followed in.

  The village was extremely quiet late at night, and the rustling of footsteps approached the back door of the house. Before the door opened, the sound of footsteps changed directions.

   "Where are you going?" Jieyan asked in a voice.

   Xiaolan pointed to the warehouse at the back of the house, "I'll go there and have a look, you can go in first."

   As she said, she bent down and walked towards her blessed land-the small warehouse.

  As if feeling some kind of call.

  From a distance, Xiaolan saw something shiny in the warehouse, reflecting the moonlight.

  She accelerated her pace excitedly and ran towards there.

  That is...that is...

   Click! Brush it! —

   Xiaolan's eyes were still fixed on the shiny thing, but her eyes were turned upside down.

  She was caught in a trap.

   Xiaolan huddled upside down in the net, his brain was congested, and she wanted to slap herself a few times.

   "Brother Baomu!" She tried to increase her voice and shouted.

  No one agreed.

  They have entered.

   Xiaolan held her forehead painfully, scolding herself in her heart.

  She struggled alone in the hanging net, trying to escape her life through her own efforts.

   But basically impossible.

  After a lot of effort was wasted, except that his brain became more congested, nothing was gained.

  Until the back door creaked.

  "Why isn't there any movement in Xiaolan?" Baomu's voice.

  "Brother Baomu!" Xiaolan shouted weakly, "Brother Baomu! Save me!..."

  Several footsteps hurriedly approached.

   "Xiaolan!" Baomu hurriedly rushed to hold up the net, "Are you okay?!"

   "It's okay now..." Xiaolan replied with the remaining half of his breath, "Quickly let me go down, my face must be here..."
