Chapter 96 Red Rose Manor 6
In the first few paragraphs of Ling Changye’s diary, the first word clue is “Erwa blooms little white flowers”.
The little white flowers on Yiwa's head will bloom, and it happened during this period, so outsiders probably don't know about it yet.
This is the hint that Ling Changye will use, to him, to Lin Xiang, and to Hua Haoming.
Although there was no prompt for the last paragraph, he still wrote it out, and it was the main point he wanted to express.
Ling Changye wrote this diary after Lin Xiang. He wrote this diary after reading Lin Xiang's diary.
When Lin Xiang proposed the five internal organs and six bowels, he proposed that there was a spirit in the body. Combining the two, Xia Bai thought of the five internal organ spirits.
There is a saying that there are many gods in the human body, and the five internal organs gods control the functioning of the body's organs.
Of course, the five internal organs gods are not the key here.
The key point is that if a person knows the gods of the five internal organs, he must know something else, the seven spirits attached to the gods of the five internal organs.
Speaking of seven spirits, there are three souls.
In Taoist teachings, humans have three souls and seven spirits. The soul is yang and the spirit is yin. Yin and yang are in harmony and become one.
There is another saying that the soul is half black, like a ghost, and the soul is red, like a god.
Xia Bai looked down at his clothes, all black, which he only wore at night.
He remembered the first time he woke up, he saw in the diary that someone wrote that he was dressed in red and appeared during the day.
The fog in Xia Bai's mind dissipated, and he drowsily felt a ray of light.
They are the three souls and seven spirits in a person's body, like ghosts and gods.
The three-soul player appears during the day, wearing red clothes, while the seven-soul player appears at night, wearing black clothes.
They each have their own responsibilities, and together they maintain the normal functioning of the body and keep us alive.
Xia Bai even knew which of the seven souls he was.
The seven spirits are Swallowing Thieves, Corpse Dog, Removing Filth, Stinky Lungs, Sparrow’s Vagina, Non-Poisonous, and Hidden Arrow.
He is a corpse dog, which corresponds to nighttime alertness. Figuratively speaking, it is a dog that guards the house. Therefore, his body is very tense every night, and he will be alert at the slightest movement. At the same time, his senses have become particularly sharp, and he can hear the slightest friction between the skin and the floor, which he could not hear before. ①
At the same time, the seven souls are related to human emotions. From the first day, he felt that he was in a good mood and did not feel uncomfortable even when he was lonely. That was because the corpse dog corresponded to the emotion of "joy".
His physical problem was not a punishment for violating the rules, but the problem was with other players, that is, other souls.
The first time I woke up and had difficulty breathing, it was because there was a problem with the stinky lung among the seven souls. The stinky lung is responsible for regulating breathing, and the corresponding emotion is sadness.
There is a problem with the player with stinky lungs. The problem may be that he is seriously injured or even dead, so his body cannot breathe normally, breathing becomes more and more difficult, and at the same time he cannot feel sad.
The third time I woke up feeling listless, it was because there was a problem with the Fu Shi among the Seven Souls. Fu Shi corresponds to dispersing toxins in the body at night and urinating, and the corresponding emotion is thinking.
Sleeping at night is supposed to conserve energy, but when he woke up he just felt tired. It was because the Fu Shi player died, and the toxins accumulated in his body were not eliminated. He also did not urinate, so his body felt heavy and listless.
When he woke up for the fourth time, he felt that the nocturnal emission as a punishment was a bit strange. It was because there was a problem with the Queyin among the seven souls. The Queyin was responsible for the reproductive function and also corresponded to the emotion of fear.
When a player with a queyin dies, his body functions cannot be restored normally, so he will have nocturnal emission, and this body will no longer feel the terror. ②
Everything was right, except for the number of people.
In fact, for most people, they may not know what the three souls and seven spirits are exactly and what they refer to, but they must have heard of the saying that people have three souls and seven spirits.
When you hear this statement, it may not correspond to the specific symptoms, but once you think that the players are all in the body, it is not difficult to think of the three souls and seven spirits if there are ten players.
The problem is that there are nine players in their group.
They had originally chosen nine out of ten, but they thought that this game would not work with ten people and it had to be nine. They even discussed the significance of "nine" and why it was nine when the game was locked.
Therefore, even if he denied Lin Xiang's guess, he used incorrect numbers and took the nine players as a very important basis for reasoning.
The Tourism Administration initially gave them ten player quotas. This number was not something they made up casually. It was the result of testing with the research institute's testing equipment and subsequent headcount statistics by the logistics department.
Of course there will be mistakes, but it is very likely that ten players came in before.
Ten players come in, corresponding to three souls and seven spirits. If the ten players discuss together, it is not difficult to think of this point. Then they work together to find the correct rules, live a good life, and then find out the truth about the castle and complete the game together.
This is not difficult, so the game was initially tested at three stars difficulty.
However, based on the inherent competition in human nature, especially in games, the first thing that comes to mind is probably multiple personalities.
If it is a multiple personality, it may be possible to survive by eliminating other players.
But if it is three souls and seven spirits, what will happen if you get rid of other players?
The third group of players who came in were led by players from the assault team, and they were very well equipped. They might have first thought of multiple personalities and schizophrenia, and coupled with bad luck, before they realized the three souls and seven spirits, the main soul among the three souls had died, and there was no chance for them to leave.
The three souls are Taiguang, Shuangling and Youjing. Taiguang is the main soul and is life. If any one of the three souls and seven spirits can represent "me", it must be Taiguang. If the player as the main soul dies, it's the end for them, and they are all dead.
As for why there are nine people, how do they correspond to the three souls and seven spirits.
Xia Bai turned to Hua Haoming's diary, and he thought he knew why. He also knew why Hua Haoming's in-game identity was [Two-Faced Man].
He is the real dual personality.
Dual personality, two souls, he is two of the three souls and seven spirits.
Three souls and seven spirits, the game does require ten players to play, but because Hua Haoming has a dual personality, Jing Yan was unable to come in.
“Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh—”
Xia Bai felt that it was becoming increasingly difficult to breathe, and he didn't know how long it would be before he couldn't breathe anymore.
Losing one's soul will not lead to immediate death like losing one's main soul, but after a long time, a person will not be able to survive, especially since he has already lost three souls. He doesn't know how many souls and spirits he will lose when he wakes up next time, or even if he can wake up at all.
Ling Changye wrote in his diary [I don’t know which day it is]. He might have thought of the three souls and seven spirits. They control time by dividing it into day and night, the soul is for the day and the spirit is for the night.
It seems that he is in control of a complete night, one soul for one night, and there are four souls left now. The next time he wakes up, it should be three days later, and three souls and three spirits will appear.
During these three days, no one knows what these six players will do or experience.
He should have violated the rules, but he is not dead yet. Death should be the accumulation of violations. When the number of violations reaches a certain number, he will be killed by the things in the bathroom or under the bed in the castle.
If more players continue to violate the rules and more players mislead others, as the number of mistakes accumulates, more than one player may die in these three days.
He must write everything in his diary this time, including the three souls and seven spirits, which cannot kill each other, and the correct rules he knows.
Otherwise, he might not have the chance to wake up again.
The only thing that makes him feel at ease at the moment is that Ling Changye and Hua Haoming's positive personalities both wake up during the day, which means that they are all souls, and there is a high possibility that they are main souls. They are not so easily killed, and the safety of the main souls is increased.
Otherwise, if they were replaced by a less powerful player, they would all die once the main soul was destroyed.
He must make the other teams believe it. How can he make them believe that all nine players have three souls and seven spirits?
Xia Bai swept his eyes around the study, focusing on the bookshelf.
When my sight passed above, it suddenly stopped.
He actually saw a book called "Notes on Inner Observation".
Xia Bai, who was dizzy, couldn't help but tremble his fingers.
This game is indeed not difficult. As long as the ten people think of the three souls and seven spirits, they will know the direction. Even if they don’t know, the books on the bookshelf will give them accurate and detailed answers.
However, except for medical students and people who read a lot of books, they may not know what "Notes on Inner Observation" is. The study rules require them to read appropriate books. Players probably won't risk reading a book that they don't even know what it is just by looking at the title.
In fact, this book on traditional Chinese medicine explains in detail what the three souls and seven spirits are.
He is currently a middle school student and should read textbooks, but he has completed his study tasks. Doesn't it count as a violation of the rules if he reads extracurricular books during non-study time?
Even if it violates one rule, Xia Bai has to watch it.
Gasping for breath, Xia Bai thought drowsily for a while.
If this is considered a violation of the rules, would he have just had this one extra rule to reach the death toll?
After all, he was not a very careful person and had violated more than two of the rules countless times. He had been warned by the things in the bathroom and under the bed.
If he doesn't care and just mentions the three souls and seven spirits, can the next player understand and believe it?
He guessed that the next player, Bai Tian, should be the other one of the three souls, except Ling Changye and Hua Haoming. Ling Changye had just written a diary, and Hua Haoming was ahead of him.
That player is not Lin Xiang. Lin Xiang appears at night.
It could only be the players from the other two teams. They would not easily believe him unless he gave a full explanation. As long as they did not believe him, they might continue to harm other players, and he did not know if he would wake up.
Xia Bai stood up.
He climbed up the ladder in front of the bookshelf, breathing hard and without energy, he was shaking every time he climbed the ladder.
With trembling hands, Xia Bai took out the book "Notes on Inner Observation", sat back and began to read it.
After finishing reading, I put the book on the desk and picked up a pen to write in my diary.
[I woke up at eight o'clock tonight. I first checked whether the bathroom door was closed. When I saw that it was closed, I breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, I went to the study room to study panting. The study time is from 8 to 9 o'clock in the evening, and I have to study hard during this time.
When it was almost half past eight, I went back to the bedroom while studying with my textbook. At half past eight, I lay down on the bed and fell asleep. As soon as half past eight, I immediately got up to study and went back to the study.
Today I read an extracurricular book called "Notes on Inner Evidence Observation". I saw a brand new explanation of the three souls and seven spirits in the book. It turns out that the three souls are red and the seven spirits are black. I learned that the seven spirits are swallowing thieves, corpse dogs, removing filth, smelly lungs, sparrow yin, non-poison, and hidden arrows. I also know their functions. The smelly lungs are responsible for regulating breathing, the sparrow yin is responsible for restoring reproductive function, and the hidden arrows are responsible for counting toxins and urinating. ③
At the same time, I learned from the book that the three souls and seven spirits cooperate with each other and cannot exist without each other, otherwise one will be lost, especially the main soul in the soul. If it disappears, the person's life will be over.
Without the day, there will be no night. Without the main soul, one cannot live. Even if one only loses the spirit, one may not be able to live well.
I also saw something in the textbook that didn’t look like notes:
[I like my brother so much.]
[I want to be with my brother forever.]
…
After finishing my diary, I planned to leave. I left the study room late this time because I didn’t want to go back to the bedroom. There seemed to be something under the bed last night. Fortunately, I didn’t move and finally fell asleep.
By the way, this time when you leave the study, don’t close the door, don’t be careless.
——I don’t know how many days]
After finishing his diary, Xia Bai had already used up all his energy. On the short walk back to his bedroom, he stopped to rest twice.
He carried his heavy body back to the bedroom, tapped his phone, put it on the table, then lay down on the bed and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It took a long time to exhale due to the difficulty in breathing.
It was really uncomfortable, but his body was still on guard as if he was fully armed.
Now Xia Bai knows that he is a corpse dog and accepts this tension. A corpse dog's job is to guard the house, protect the body and other souls. If anything comes out of the bathroom tonight, he must destroy it and protect other players.
He predicted that if something else came out of the bathroom, it would definitely come out when the things under the bed came out, because when the things under the bed came out, he would have to lie on the bed and sleep according to the bedroom rules and could not do anything.
So he greeted Sister Xuemu in advance.
Just as he predicted, they appeared at the same time.
When a slight crawling sound was heard under the bed, blood gushed out from the glass of the bathroom door.
Xia Bai closed his eyes, feeling the bloody and cold breath getting closer and closer. Just like last time, it was hanging above him, staring at him, and there was a sticky, cold, uneven part crawling up his wrist.
Last time it was only my wrists, this time it was also on my feet and calves. It was icy cold and sticky with something like bones inside.
Before he fell asleep, Xia Bai was exhausted and almost fainted, not because of fear, but because of the smell of blood.
Now that Queyin is dead, he no longer feels fear, which has both advantages and disadvantages.
The good thing was that at this moment, he didn't feel any fear at all, even though he knew that the one crawling on him might be a rotten ghost.
Of course, he wasn't that scared last time, because decay always reminded him of corpses, and the familiarity made him feel that the rotten ghost wasn't that scary.
The downside is that people really cannot live without fear. Without fear, they won’t be nervous and won’t feel urgent. Some people may not think there is anything wrong with reading the diary he wrote, and will still harm other players for rewards.
Thinking of this, Xia Bai still kept his body tense and listened attentively to Sister Xue Mu's voice.
After finally hearing the faint sound of vomiting coming from the bathroom, Xia Bai felt relieved.
This game really wronged Sister Xuemu. It was so harsh that Yiwa almost cried after hearing it. He will definitely compensate Sister Xuemu after leaving the game.
——If I could leave this game.
Last time, Xia Bai couldn't wait to fall asleep, but this time he didn't want to fall asleep, even though there was a rotten ghost facing him. He didn't know if he could wake up.
The more he didn't want to fall asleep, the sooner he seemed to fall asleep. He felt an irresistible sleepiness, and with his last bit of consciousness he prayed that his teammates would be reliable and wake him up again, or take him out of the game directly.
Song Qiu opened his eyes.
He got up and checked the time on his phone. It was just after seven in the morning.
His breathing was heavy and he stood in front of the desk for a few seconds, feeling the new situation in his body, and walked to the closet to change his clothes.
After changing his clothes, he put his phone in his pocket, left the bedroom, passed through the living room, and took a look at the "Red Rose Castle Life Rules" which had been revised countless times. After being revised so many times, there was one rule that remained unchanged.
1. Eat on time, sleep on time, and maintain a healthy schedule.
He took a quick look, picked up a thin blanket on the sofa, walked to the dining room on the first floor, lowered his head and covered the mirror next to the dining table with the thin blanket.
At the other end of the restaurant is the kitchen. The kitchen door is wide open. When you look up, you can see a copy of the "Red Rose Castle Kitchen Rules". This is the rule that has been changed the least number of times in the entire Red Rose Castle.
He was the only one who changed it once.
Song Qiu stared at the rules for a few seconds, with no emotion in his eyes.
《Red Rose Castle Kitchen Rules》
1. Do it yourself and you will have enough food and clothing.
1. Eat a balanced diet, don’t be picky about food, and don’t eat the same ingredients for three meals a day.
3. Breakfast time is from 7:30 to 8:30 every morning, lunch time is from 11:00 to 1:00 noon, and dinner time is from 6:30 to 7:30 in the afternoon.
4. Please keep quiet while eating, do not play with your mobile phone, and do not litter.
5. After finishing the meal, please return everything to its original place and close the kitchen door.
Close the kitchen door, but the kitchen door is open at this time.
The last person who used the kitchen realized that "close the kitchen door" was a false rule from the first time.
Song Qiu was not curious about who the last person was. He quietly walked into the kitchen, found a plate of fried rice in the refrigerator, heated it up, and took it to the restaurant to eat.
Because of his difficulty breathing, it took him a long time to finish his meal.
Even though it was difficult to eat, he still finished it without leaving a single grain.
Because the current "Red Rose Castle Kitchen Rules" lacks one item: "Cherish food and finish breakfast."
As for why only breakfast must be finished, isn’t there rice for lunch and dinner?
After eating and cleaning, Song Qiu did not close the kitchen door, pulled off the thin blanket on the mirror, and returned to the third floor.
Shortly after eight o'clock in the morning, he went to the study. The door of the study was not closed. The last person who used the study did not close the door every time and did not violate the rules every time.
When he sat down at the desk, it was not yet time to study. He was very leisurely and stared out the window for a while.
The sun should have come out. The sun didn't come out.
The sky was gloomy, the shapes of the dark clouds were so clear, and the dim light fell on his androgynous face, which was as dark as his eyes.
There is no door in the Red Rose Castle, but there is a door in his eyes.
Not only was there a door, but there were people standing outside the door, two of whom were holding hands, and one of them said that the other was his boyfriend.
He was stunned for a moment, then looked down at his hands, examining them very carefully, as if he was examining them.
After a while, he held this hand with his other hand, rubbed the palm of this hand lightly, and then was held tightly by this hand, slowly turning into a posture with ten fingers intertwined.
A smile finally appeared in those gloomy eyes.
It was almost nine o'clock when he took out two diaries and looked through them.
After turning to the latest article, he stared at "Three Souls and Seven Spirits" for a few more seconds, then stood up and found the "Notes on Inner Observation" mentioned in the diary from the bookshelf and flipped through it quickly.
At nine o'clock, he picked up a high school math textbook and started reading. He saw the twisted lines in his notes again, some of which were tightly entangled together, and some were twisted and hideous.
After eleven o'clock, he stood up, took the diary about the three rings and seven souls to the living room, and turned on the TV.
While watching TV, he tore off the page of his diary that talked about the three souls and seven spirits, tore it into pieces until no words could be seen, and gently threw it into the trash can.
Then, while watching TV, I thought about the contents of the diary and wrote a new one.
[Like last time, I woke up at eight o'clock tonight. I first checked whether the bathroom door was closed. When I saw that the door was open, I breathed a sigh of relief.
My shoes were right next to the bed, and I immediately put them on, huffing and puffing, and then I realized something embarrassing. First I had trouble breathing, then I felt weak, and now this embarrassing thing happened again. Maybe there was something wrong with my body.
I should go to the hospital, but I can't.
The reason is that 8 to 9 o'clock in the evening is the study time. I have to go to the study to study, but I have to go to bed at 8:30, so I opened the wardrobe, chose a black dress to change into, and after changing, I didn't throw garbage around, and threw the dirty clothes into the trash can. Then I endured the embarrassment and lay on the bed until 8:30. As soon as 8:30 passed, I immediately went to the study to study. This half an hour was enough for me to complete the task.
I read the math textbook and found that the numerical principles of mathematics are truths that cannot be overturned. Just like the number 9, even if it is reversed to 6, it is still 11-2.
Mathematics is the simplest, without so many twists and turns. You don't need to think too much, because thinking too much will lead to wrong answers. Mathematics is also the most authentic science, which can break all ghost and metaphysics.
There was a sound under the bed last night and there was blood in the bathroom. It took me a lot of effort to get rid of the blood in the bathroom and the sound under the bed. I am even more tired today.
After writing my diary, I will go back to bed and recharge my energy for the next battle.
By the way, don’t forget to close the study door this time. Making the mistake once is enough, and making it more than once will be dangerous.
——I don’t know which day it is]
After putting down the pen, he finished watching TV, walked to the door of the study, and threw the diary gently and accurately onto the desk.
If you have multiple personalities, kill the other personalities, and the main personality that survives will be able to complete the game.
If there are three souls and seven spirits, one person does not need to cooperate, and that person is the main soul. Even if the other souls disappear, the main soul can survive and take someone who knows the truth with him.
Song Qiu knew that he, who had read all the rules without any trace of modification, was Taiguang, the main soul, and the person who wrote the diary of three souls and seven spirits and was about to find the truth was Xia Bai.
It's enough for the two of them to be alive.
If you can't survive, then just die.
Die in a body.
That's good too.
