Chapter 483 The Woman on the Cross
Chapter 483 The Woman on the Cross
Gu Chaoxi's hand had just touched the door when something around him seemed to be triggered.
She immediately withdrew her hand and looked behind her.
The two suits of armor closest to the door actually rushed straight towards her.
Without having time to think, Gu Chaoxi rolled over and jumped directly to the middle.
It seemed as if all the armor was triggered, and they began to move towards the center, then constantly changing their positions.
She stopped only when she rushed to Pei Yan.
Some of them were looking towards the center, breathlessly. At this time, everyone was standing on the side.
The carpet that was originally laid on the floor seemed to have been taken away by the door on the other side.
At this time, the exposed floor was in the shape of black and white checkered.
"What is this? Chess?"
Qin Wei was a little surprised.
Everyone looked at the ground. At this time, the entire floor was in the shape of black and white grids, and those in armor who walked to the middle began to stand one by one.
Pei Yan glanced at the black and white squares and the armor and was silent.
After a while, he finally spoke: "It seems that we must solve this chess game before we can move on to the next room."
Is the third theme going to cost so much?
On both sides of the room, there are depictions of windows, but they are not real.
On the window glass, there are pictures of bats and lightning.
When Pei Yan took a step forward, it was as if the device on the window was triggered, and the entire window flickered, making the bats and lightning on it look as if they were in real time.
He took another step back without any movement.
So Pei Yan simply walked towards the stage and stood behind the chair.
The back of the chair was about 1.6 meters high, and when he stood behind it, he only had a small part of it left.
But looking downward from this position, it is very clear.
So, Pei Yan turned his head and waved to a few people, and everyone walked towards the stage.
When we got upstairs, there was still nothing unusual happening downstairs, and even the windows on both sides were silent.
Apparently, standing on the stage won't trigger anything.
Pei Yan pointed down and asked Gu Chaoxi, "Have you ever tried chess?"
She shook her head: "No, my brother never taught me."
When she was a child, she would only learn many things if Gu Chenyang asked her to.
However, Gu Chenyang himself seemed to have never learned chess, so Gu Chaoxi didn't know much about this.
Pei Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with it. On the contrary, he chuckled and said, "Then I'll teach you next time."
"Stop talking about this and solve this chessboard quickly."
Qin interrupted with a smile, pointing to the chessboard below.
Although she had learned a little about chess when she was in school, to be honest, Qin Wei was not good at it.
All I can say is that she is a beginner who has just understood the rules and knows how to move, but doesn't know how to solve it.
Pei Yan nodded and began to observe the position below carefully.
These armors are basically the same except for the weapons in their hands.
Therefore, how to judge which position each chess piece represents requires Pei Yan to guess.
He raised his hands, imagining in his mind what these chess pieces represented and speculating on the possibilities.
It took a while, at least ten minutes.
The people around didn't understand this, so they just waited quietly.
Luo Zhenxian relaxed a little now and stood up, but still held Qi Chuzhao's arm.
Qi Chuzhao originally wanted him to let go, but he was afraid of disturbing Pei Yan's thinking, so he could only glare at Luo Zhenxian.
Luo Zhen first pursed his lips. There was nothing he could do. He was really afraid that something would suddenly pop up here again.
Finally, Pei Yan moved.
"Stay here and don't move."
He walked down to the nearest piece of armor and pushed it to the left.
The armor was easily pushed forward, and it was obvious that now was the time to solve the problem.
He continued to walk forward. During this process, the windows on both sides kept flashing, and he even heard the windows creaking.
Luo Zhenxian looked at the door he came from behind with some fear, only to see that it was pitch black.
Deep in the distance, there seemed to be a flash of red light.
He was so scared that he turned his head back immediately, hugged Qi Chuzhao's body tightly, and felt the hairs on his back start to stand up.
Pei Yan quickly placed the chess pieces that needed to be moved to their proper positions according to what he had imagined in his mind.
At this moment, the symbol on the door that was originally closed seemed to be glowing, and it continued to spread upwards from the bottom.
Then the door opened a crack.
"Come here, it's okay." Pei Yan turned around and looked at them.
So, everyone stepped on the black and white squares and walked towards that direction.
He put his hand on the door and pushed it open. A scream passed overhead and everyone was startled and squatted down.
However, there was only a gust of wind passing overhead, and nothing strange was seen.
Inside the door, only the candlesticks around the door were still lit.
When Qi Chuzhao and Luo Zhenxian last stepped into this room, the light in the room behind them suddenly went out.
Qin Wei turned around and looked over there, only to find that the huge painting in front of him seemed a little weird at this moment.
The smile of the man above seemed to deepen.
It was just the dim light over here, so she couldn't be sure if she was seeing things.
The moment he saw the room clearly, Gu Chaoxi felt uncomfortable all over.
This place is very similar to the wide corridor extending from the previous room.
There are huge floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides, with thorns entwined around them.
There is a full moon outside the window.
In the middle of the room, there was a carpet, the same carpet that had just disappeared.
At the end of this carpet, there is a huge cross, and a woman in a torn white dress is tied to it.
Her hands were tied horizontally on the cross, and her legs were hanging down.
The cross was somewhat high, and the woman's feet did not touch the ground.
Her white dress was torn and stained with blood.
There were scratches on her exposed legs, and blood was seeping out and flowing down along her feet.
The woman's head was lowered, her long hair covering her face, so it was impossible to see what she looked like.
She was tied up with black thorns, which pierced her skin, leaving her fair skin covered in blood.
This scene is obviously full of blood, but it also has a kind of beauty.
Gu Chaoxi rubbed his arms and looked to both sides with a frown.
Apart from that, the room was almost eerily empty.
A chill lingered around them, and they felt as if something was about to attack them from the darkness.
