KALEIDOSCOPE OF DEATH 32 update

 

The worst thing inside this door is not only to face the horrible monsters, but also to face teammates who may betray at any time. Although they seem to be partners who can trust each other in the door, as long as there is an accident, the word “partner” may change meaning at any time.

 

Because of what happened just now, although the voice of the tour guide came from outside, no one dared to move. Ruan Nanzhu still leaned on Lin Qiushi. He gently patted Lin Qiuishi’s shoulder and said, “Go.”

 

Lin Qiushi said,”Just go out?”

 

“There should be no accidents.” Ruan Nanzhu said, “We can’t spend the night in the temple.”

 

This is true. Lin Qiushi thought for a moment,”It is better to go out first. If something goes wrong, you will act according to circumstances.”

 

“Let’s go together.” Ruan Nanzhu said, “Trust me once.”

 

Lin Qiuishi saw that Ruan Nanzhu was firm and determined, and he took a few steps toward outside the temple. He just left the door of the temple and saw the tour guide standing in front of them and smiling. She waved the flag,”Come here, come over.” The guide called at them. “It’s getting dark, we have to go back soon.”

 

Lin Qiushi looked around and found that the knives that had just fell down from the sky had disappeared. Only the fleshy body at the door told him that everything was just not his illusion.

 

He slowly walked over to the tour guide, as Ruan Nanzhu said, there was no terrible accident. Cheng Qianli followed them and looked at the body. The expression on his face looked familiar. When Lin Qiushi accompanied him to watch The Wicked Ghost, he kept the look of wanting to scream at any time.

 

However, Cheng Qianli kept back and his whole face turned red.

 

Seeing that they had no accidents, the rest people began to go outside.

 

The tour guide seemed to have not seen the fleshy body at all. She smiled and asked if everyone was happy to play today, and did not appreciate the unique style of the temple.

 

No one cares about her in the team, she also enjoyed saying that, and does not care about the answers of others.

 

They walked back from the previous path, the sky began to darken, and there was a bit more silence in the jungle. The flag that was inserted in the treetops was slammed by the wind, like a wing that the monsters spread.

 

There happened nothing on the way back. They safely reached the bamboo house of the accommodation and ate a dinner that was not delicious.

 

When the tour guide left, they agreed to the meeting time, indicating that it was eight o’clock in the morning.

 

Meng Yu asked which spot to visit tomorrow.

 

The look of the tour guide was mysterious, indicating that the place to go tomorrow is very special. They will know tomorrow and everyone shouldn’t be late. She also said that the wind was very strong this night, so it is best not to go out at half-night.

 

Everyone was clear even if she didn’t remind them. It did not have much effect.

 

The taste of the dinner was really bad. Ruan Nanzhu had no appetite, but he still ate something. From the time he arrived in the world, he was in a bad state. At this time, he looked exhausted and could sleep at any time. If the average person is like him, it will make people feel uncomfortable. But Ruan Nanzhu has a beautiful face, even if it looks uncomfortable, but it is a kind of morbid beauty.

 

Xu Jin said that he had slept for a day, and how could he be so sleepy?

 

Ruan Nanzhu used his chin to smash on the neck of Lin Qiushi, and said softly,”I’m sorry, my health was not good from childhood. Brother Lin Lin, Sorry for you.”

 

Lin Qiushi said,”…no trouble.”

 

Xu Jin, “…” Oh, this couple of bitches.

 

In the face of a unpalatable dinner, Cheng Qianli still stuffed a full stomach. According to his words, he wanted to be a full-fledged ghost even die.

 

Lin Qiushi actually admired him. After all, this dinner is too unpalatable. Most people eating so much can only reduce their desire for survival.

 

After the meal, everyone dispersed and prepared to rest.

 

Ruan Nanzhu fell asleep on the bed, almost instantly entered a deep sleep state.

 

Lin Qiushi and Xu Jin did not have time, so they could only talk to each other randomly.

 

Xu Jin spoke a little about herself outside the world, saying that she is an ordinary college student. She just graduated this year and was forced into the door when she crossed the road. She began to think that she was dreaming and later realized that no dreams will be so real.

 

“Will we die here? Brother Lin Lin.” Xu Jin said, “I am so scared.”

 

Lin Qiushi leaned against the window and said, “I don’t know, don’t think too much, go to bed early.”

 

Xu jin looked at Ruan Nanzhu that was sleeping, biting her teeth, and trembled,”Brother Lin Lin…”

 

Lin Qiushi said,”What’s wrong?”

 

Xu Jin said,”I feel cold…”

 

Lin Qiushi,”…” Ruan Nanzhu, see that you have taught the girl bad things. Although he did not understand the girl, but he was not mentally retarded, Xu Jin’s expression and act was too obvious. Lin Qiushi showed a helpless expression. He only had to pretend to be incomprehensible and said,”Oh, you are cold, then I will bring you a bed quilt.”

 

Xu Jin,”…” Why it’s different from what she thought. She bit her teeth and stamped her feet, then put down the last reserve,”That  is too troublesome, Can… I slept with you?”

 

Lin Qiushi calmly refused,”You are too fat, I feel a little squeezed.”

 

Xu Jin was caught in the silence. She looked at thin Ruan Nanzhu who had already slept, and looked at herself again. She found that it was impossible to refute it for a while.

 

Lin Qiushi said,”Do you still want a quilt?”

 

Xu Jin gave up on herself,”No, I am full of fattiness, I should be able to stand up.”

 

Although knowing this was not kind, Lin Qiushi still wanted to laugh a bit. But the world inside was so dangerous, how can they have mind to talk about love, not afraid that when they are making love, suddenly a ghost comes out and leads to impotence for life…

 

Xu Jin was about to see through Lin Qiushi’s straight male soul, and finally lay back on the bed and stopped talking. After a while, there was a quiet breathing, and it seemed that she was asleep.

 

Lin Qiushi thought that you could sleep sol fast… He closed his eyes and tried to relax his body and let himself sleep.

 

The next day’s sunshine awakened Lin Qiushi from the bed. The first thing he did after opening his eyes was to confirm if the people around him were still there.

 

Ruan Nanzhu was already awake, sitting on the bed and slowly combing his hair. He heard Lin Qiushi’s movement and his head did not return,”Good morning.”

 

“Good morning.” Lin Qiushi said.

 

“I slept early yesterday, nothing happened in the middle of the night?” Ruan Nanzhu asked.

 

“No.” Lin Qiushi said, “The forest was very quiet, and I did not heard anything strange.”

 

Ruan Nanzhu said,”I mean you and Xu Jin…”

 

Lin Qiushi was full of questions,”What can I do with Xu Jin? Is there any problem with her?”

 

Ruan Nanzhu,”…” He was quiet for a while and asked a question, “Why did your last girlfriend break up with you?”

 

Lin Qiushi said,”Girlfriend? I didn’t… didn’t make a girlfriend.” After he learned the design, he basically didn’t have a chance to socialize. When he studied at school, he did his homework every day. After work, he worked overtime every day, not to mention the girlfriend, he didn’t even seen a girl.

 

Ruan Nanzhu said,”Oh, very good.”

 

Lin Qiushi,”…” He always felt a subtle expression from the face of Ruan Nanzhu.

 

After the washing, everyone had a breakfast together.

 

Everyone is curious about where they are going today, but there is some concern in curiosity, because they always felt that today’s situation will be more dangerous than yesterday.

 

“Try to go together.” Meng Yu said, “There is a way to take care of each other if something bad happen.”

 

Yesterday, two men died. At this time, there were still 14 people left in the team. Although there are a lot of people, they always felt that if something was really going wrong, it is useless to have so many people here.

 

Cheng Qianli patted the shoulder of Lin Qiushi and said that I am with you today.

 

Lin Qiushi said OK.

 

At eight o’clock, the tour guide appeared on time. She wore the same costume as yesterday. She had the same expression on her face and waved the red flag,”Is it all right? We are ready to go.”

 

“OK.” Meng Yu replied.

 

“Okay, let’s go.” The tour guide said, “The place we went to today is quite special. After you arrived there, you must not shout loudly and have to respect local customs.”

 

Everyone nodded.

 

The tour guide showed a smile and said,”If you don’t want to be late, let’s hurry and set off.”

 

Because of the special environment here, there was no other means of transportation other than walking. Today, the tour guide took them to another road. The road was always on the mountain, and the surrounding forest was still dense.

 

Everyone followed the tour guide to have a difficult journey, but the road was too difficult to walk, and soon there was someone lacking physical strength and could not keep up with the big forces.

 

“Can we take a break?” Someone in the team asked the tour guide.

 

“It’s OK to have a rest.” The guide looked at the watch,”But we must arrive at the destination before noon.”

 

“Why?” The man felt a bit strange,”Why at noon…”

 

“Because you have to visit there for six hours.” The tour guide explained calmly,”If you don’t reach your destination before twelve o’clock, you can only go down after dark.” She finished this and her face exposed a weird smile,”I believe everyone will not want to go this mountain road at night.”

 

Everyone heard this sentence, and the expression was not very good.

 

People who couldn’t walk started to bite their teeth and wanted to continue to persist. After all, this is a matter of life.

 

Lin Qiushi was afraid that Ruan Nanzhu could not stand this. He carried him on his back in the middle of the road. Thanks to the light weight of Ruan Nanzhu, otherwise he really didn’t know what to do.

 

Even so, Ruan Nanzhu still attracted some jealous eyes.

 

The physical strength of a girl is not comparable to that of a big man. It can be admired by others to be taken up and rest for a while.

 

Fortunately, when everyone was about to hold on, they finally reached the destination of the tour guide said- a dense tower.

 

These towers are three or four meters to tens of meters tall. They stand in the dense jungle. It is hard to imagine what kind of craftsmanship can be used to build such a magnificent building in such a difficult environment.

 

Everyone looked at these magnificent buildings and was shocked by them. They fell into silence for a time and even forgot the dangers of the world.

 

Fortunately, the voice of the tour guide pulled them back to reality. She said,”The next is six-hour visit time. Then I will pick you up. Please visit here and enjoy the exotic atmosphere!” She turned and left, disappearing into the jungle.

 

Looking at her back, Cheng Qianli couldn’t help but swear, saying that it was a world inside the door, otherwise the guide was afraid to be killed several times.

 

“Let’s go.” Lin Qiushi put down Ruan Nanzhu, and entered the tower with others.

 

The towers are large or small in height. There is a wooden door under each tower, locked with a rusty lock.

 

“Where is here? Is it the sacrifice spot” Lin Qiushi felt strange,“But should there be a temple where the sacrifice is?”

 

“I think it should be a graveyard.” Ruan Nanzhu said.

 

Lin Qiushi said,”Cemetery?” When he talked about the cemetery, he immediately remembered the wooden platform when he was pushed down yesterday,”So not everyone will be used for burial…”

 

Ruan Nanzhu said,”Open a tower and check it out.”

 

He went to a quiet place, and then started the work with the departure card.

 

The rusted lock was easily opened, and Ruan Nanzhu was pushed open to reveal the darkened tower. There was no light inside, and it gave off an old smell. Lin Qiushi illumined the inside with a mobile phone, and saw a decaying bone at the bottom of the tower.

 

“It is indeed a grave.” Ruan Nanzhu confirmed his own guess.

 

“What does she mean to bring us here?” Lin Qiushi said, “Is the key not in the temple?”

 

Ruan Nanzhu shook his head and did not speak.

 

After re-locking the door, they walked towards the center of the tower, and Lin Qiuishi saw the tallest tower. The shape of the tower is a bit special, and it is particularly eye-catching in the cluster of small towers. There is a very beautiful sculpture on the top of the tower. It looks like a disc. Under the disc is a pattern of flowing clouds, but no one knew what it means.

 

Everyone’s attention was on this tower, and obviously everyone thought there would be clues about the key in this tower.

 

After arriving at the tower, the people who passed first found that the tower was not a wooden door but a stone door. The stone door was not locked, instead, it was hidden.

 

“Is this tower also full of bones?” Someone asked.

 

“Who knows?” No one could answer this question.

 

Just when everyone hesitated to enter the tower, Lin Qiushi heard the sound of drums. His expression changed, and immediately told Ruan Nanzhu.

 

“Drums?” Ruan Nanzhu said, “From where?”

 

Lin Qiushi said,”In the distance.” He looked up at the cloudy sky,”It didn’t take long to start to rain after the drums rang…. No, it is accurate to start falling down the knives.”

 

Ruan Nanzhu looked around,”It seems that we can only enter the tower.”

 

The place was all surrounded by wilderness, there is no place to cover, only the towers in front of them can hide in.

 

“Go in.” Ruan Nanzhu raised his hand and pushed the door.

 

“You want to go in?” Meng Yu that stood not far away was a bit curious.

 

“Yes.” Ruan Nanzhu said, “Is there any problem?”

 

“Are you not afraid of having trouble after you go in?” Meng said, “Just act rashly like this…”

 

Ruan Nanzhu said,”If you are afraid, just wait outside.” He pointed to the sky above his head,”I just feel that it is going to rain again.”

 

The face of Meng Yu slightly changed.

 

Others heard the words that it was going to rain all began to stir up. The young people who died yesterday were still vivid, and no one wanted to suffer punishment by hacking process.

 

Ruan Nanzhu pushed the seemingly heavy stone door and twisted into the tower.

 

Lin Qiushi followed, he turned on the flashlight and saw the inside of the tower. The tower did not seem to be a grave, at least no bones could be seen on the first floor.

 

When they came in, other people saw that nothing happened and they came in one after another.

 

“This tower should have several layers.” Ruan Nanzhu said,”Since we come in, we have to go up and see?” He paused,”I want to take a closer look at the building on the top of the tower.”

 

Lin Qiushi knew that there was a reason for Ruan Nanzhu said this, and he agreed with him at once.

 

Then four people began to climb up.

 

Other people on the team saw their actions and showed their disapproval. Also, in a world where you don’t know how to trigger death conditions, it seems that doing nothing is the safest choice.

 

But if you don’t do anything, the key will not appear in front of everyone, unless everyone around you is dead.

 

The stairs of the tower are very narrow and can only be passed by one person.

 

Ruan Nanzhu walked at the forefront, and Lin Qiuishi was at the end.

 

They climbed all the way, while climbing the tower and observing the situation inside the tower.

 

“There is something.” Ruan Nanzhu suddenly said.

 

This is the eighth layer they climbed. It should be not far from the top of the tower. Lin Qiushi turned over the stairs and saw the thing  Ruan Nanzhu said.

 

It was a beautiful drum.

 

Placed in the middle of the eighth floor, the body is red, with some detail sculptures on it, although there is not much decoration, it still shows its exquisiteness.

 

The three people presented immediately thought of the drum in the song, and the expression became serious. Only Xu Jin, the look seemed a bit embarrassed, she murmured,”A beautiful drum.” She went to the drum, carefully watched.

 

“Don’t touch.” Ruan Nanzhu stopped her. “There is a problem with this drum.”

 

Xu Jin did not speak, and looked a little obsessed.

 

“Are you okay? Xu Jin?” Lin Qiushi noticed her strangeness and screamed her name.

 

However, Xu Jin’s next move was to extend his hand and patted on the beautiful drum.

 

“Dong” – the crisp drum sound passed to their ears.

 

Lin Qiushi was shocked, and a strong sense of dizziness hit him. He closed his eyes with pain in his ears, and the whole person almost fell to the ground.

 

In order to stabilize the body, Lin Qiushi stretched out his hand to hold the wall next to him, but when his fingers touched the wall that was supposed to be a stone, the whole person froze.

 

The stone is gone. The sense of touch on the fingertips was like a softer thing – the human skin.

 

Lin Qiushi took a breath, and he opened his eyes and saw the scene in front of him.

 

The stone wall that should have existed was gone, replaced by soft skin, and the skin was still slowly squirming, accompanied by the pulse of the heart.

 

“My sister didn’t talk when she was young. She left home in the year I can remember things…” The girl’s voice rang behind Lin Qiushi. He turned stiffly and saw a little girl with blood standing behind her. Her face has no skin, only red flesh and blood, and even visible white bones. And her arms are holding a beautiful red drum. Her black eyes gazed at Lin Qiushi silently. She slightly lifted up her slender hands, and fell heavily, leaving one after another bloody handprints on the white drum surface.

 

“An old man sits on Mani Stones, and he repeats a word again and again…” The song continued, and the girl knocked on the drum and walked toward Lin Qiushi.

 

Lin Qiushi couldn’t make a sound to speak, he could only watch her hand touch her body, and then… got through his body.

 

The next moment, Lin Qiushi shocked his body, like hit by an electric shock, the scene in front of him changed again, the original little girl disappeared, he returned to the cold stone tower, standing next to two familiar people.

 

“Lin Qiushi.” Cheng Qianli looked at him in horror,”You… what are you doing…”

 

Lin Qiushi bowed his head and saw his hand on the red drum.

 

The texture of the drum is very soft, exactly the same as he imagined. It is the touch of the human skin.

 

“Qiushi.” The voice of Ruan Nanzhu came. He asked him, “What did you see?”

 

“A girl.” Lin Qiushi removed his hand from the drum. He said, “A girl who is covered in blood and is peeled alive… What happened?”

 

“You suddenly ran over and patted on the drum.” Cheng Qianli said, “I can’t stop you.”

 

“Beat the drums? Isn’t Xu Jin who beat the drums?” Lin Qiushi looked at the drum, only to feel cold, and he wanted to be farther away from it.

 

“She? She didn’t follow us up.” Cheng Qianli was confused,”She has stayed underneath.”

 

Lin Qiushi,”…”

 

Ruan Nanzhu seemed to understand something. He stepped forward and gently pressed Lin Qiuishi’s shoulder,”Don’t worry, it’s okay.”

 

Lin Qiushi smiled bitterly,”How can this be all right?” It is obviously not a good omen to see those things.

 

Ruan Nanzhu said,”Calm down, you tell me first, what did you see?”

 

Lin Qiushi exhaled and closed his eyes and began to recall the picture he had just seen,”I saw the wall of this tower turn into human skin…”

  1. Just wondering why you would translate chapter 4 and 5 again but call them 31 and 32?….Also the story jumps from inside the door to after they escape so you left out a big chunk.
