The five gates represent, force, literary intelligence, array, logic and strategy.
But no one knows which door represents what. It is said that the orientation of the door will change every time, so we can only rely on luck.
Shen Jingqiu looked at the five doors in front of him and said with a smile, "choose one from five. I like the second door on the right. Why don't you choose the same one as me?"
Shen Yulan was surprised that Shen Jingqiu would let her go with him. Up to now, she didn't know whether Shen Jingqiu was really not interested in the position of home owner, so when he said this, Shen Yulan hesitated for a moment, and then promised, "OK."
When they entered through the second door on the right, they saw a dense crowd.
"So many people?" Shen Jingqiu smiled. "Speaking, how many people participated in the competition today, Yulan, do you know?"
Shen Yulan shook her head, "I don't know, but the younger generation of the Shen family, even the concubines of the second uncle generation, attended. This is more than half of the Shen family."
"Yes." Shen Jingqiu laughed. "It's the first time I know so many people are interested in the position of home owner. I haven't seen it before. I asked Xiaodong to count it this morning. She said there were 375 people."
Xiaodong is Shen Jingqiu's personal bodyguard. He has always stood beside him to protect him.
But today I see the competition, and all the slaves can't go in.
Shen Yulan narrowed her eyes. Unexpectedly, there were so many people. She looked up at the head in front of her, shook her head and said, "there are about fifty or sixty people in this door."
"Yes, what did you do in this exam?" Shen Jingqiu looked around, probably because there were too many people and didn't see anything.
But someone nearby saw Shen Jingqiu and said, "second uncle, this array is like this after we came in. There's nothing. I really don't know what to test."
Shen Jingqiu glanced at the speaker and narrowed his eyes. "Oh, I don't know what to test up to now. Don't you choose to quit?"
The man's face turned red and angry. He wanted to say that you didn't know what to test. Why did you laugh at us?
However, he still didn't say this. After all, where was Shen Jingqiu's status, he still didn't dare to provoke.
Shen Jingqiu saw that he didn't reply. For a moment, he felt very boring. He turned back and asked Shen Yulan, "Yulan, what do you think is the test here?"
"There are too many people to see clearly. I have to look ahead." Shen Yulan replied.
Shen Jingqiu nodded and said, "OK, I'll accompany you."
The two pushed aside the crowd and walked towards the front.
At this time, in the dense and dark array, several people in black went out where no one saw them. They mixed in the crowd, grabbed one person, directly covered their mouth and nose and stabbed at their heart.
The man didn't make a sound until he died, and even the people next to him didn't see it.
In this way, people in black choose people to assassinate at will in the crowd. So far, they have killed more than ten people!
When Shen Yulan came to the front, he saw a chess game in front of the array.
Shen Jingqiu, who followed her, also saw it and said with an eyebrow, "is it difficult to play chess? What does this belong to? Wenzhi, logic? Or strategy?"
"Dead game." Shen Yulan went to the chessboard and watched carefully, "is it to break the game?"
Shen Jingqiu glanced, shook his head and said, "I'm not interested in playing chess. It seems that I have to stop at this step."
Others saw Shen Yulan looking at the chessboard intently. They quickly surrounded her and wanted to see how she broke the game. Maybe they can copy it later.
The more people gather, the more convenient it is for people in black to assassinate.
For a time, countless people fell.
Shen Jingqiu asked with a smell of blood. He looked back at the crowd and asked, "do you have a wound on who?"
As soon as Shen Jingqiu finished asking, someone shouted, "no, my eighth brother, how did the eighth brother die..."
This cry immediately flustered everyone.
"No, there are assassins. There are assassins mixed in."
The fight suddenly became apparent, and the person who found the assassin began to fight with the assassin.
Someone wondered, "is it the assassin or the design in the array?"
"I don't know, but I didn't say there would be dead people in this array!"
"That's because not many people take part in the competition on weekdays. Once we can't fight, we directly choose to go out. Today we have too many people. Those things are mixed in the crowd. We're surprised. How can we guard against it? Ah... There's a man in black here. Kill him."
For a time, everyone fought with the man in black.
Shen Yulan also looked up from the chessboard and looked at the chaotic scene in front of her. A trace of panic flashed in front of her. She formed an array surrounding circle with her hands, trapped all these people in the array and asked them to fight and kill.
Shen Jingqiu was happy when he saw this scene. "Yulan, you really take a drastic step."
"Those who come in are all opponents. Why be merciful, second uncle, I'll go first." after that, Shen Yulan buried a chess piece. The next second, a door opened under her feet, and she fell directly from the opening.
Then the door closed quickly.
Shen Jingqiu said with a smile, "so I'm here, too?"
Shen Jingqiu picked up Shen Yulan's chess piece and put it down again. Soon, a door opened under his feet and he entered the second level.
The door closed again, leaving only the group of people to fight and kill.
Fortunately, there were a large number of people, and the three people in black were quickly eliminated. However, the Shen family were assassinated and killed 35 people and injured 12.
The injured had no choice but to quit, and the rest continued to study in front of the chessboard.
It seems that this farce comes and goes quickly. No one cares in front of the house owner.
Just after Shen Yulan entered the second level, she found that Shen Jingqiu also followed. She asked in a deep voice, "is the second uncle really not interested in the position of home owner?"
"Of course." Shen Jingqiu admitted generously, "I know what you want to say. If I say I follow you to protect you, do you believe it?"
To tell you the truth, Shen Yulan didn't believe it very much. The people in black were mixed in the array before. I think who specially arranged it. It's just a mess. I can't find out who the originator is.
Of course, it's also good to help her solve some people who get in the way.
Shen Yulan didn't answer Shen Jingqiu at all. She went on. This was the second level. It was darker than the first level just now. She couldn't see her fingers.
If she didn't feel Shen Jingqiu's breathing, she wouldn't know there was another person around her.
She stretched out her right index finger and lit a small beam of light with her power. As a result, as soon as it was lit, a white ghost face appeared in front of her, which scared her to scream, "ah..."
"Oh, what's your name?" Shen Jingqiu's eardrums stimulated by her cry were about to break. He quickly turned on his flashlight and lit up the things in front.
Well, it's really scary.
"Who made the doll? It's so ugly." he pushed away the grimace doll in front of Shen Yulan. "It's supposed to scare you."
Shen Yulan was really frightened. At this time, she felt much better with some light.
She thought for a while, but she still grasped Shen Jingqiu's wrist. "The second uncle said he wanted to protect me, so I'll believe it."
Hearing the speech, Shen Jingqiu sneered, "it's really a child."
