The four of them were silent under the ladder. Du Ziming stood here, not in a hurry. He could have climbed to the next floor and looked down at everyone. However, he did not do this. Instead, he took the initiative to get off the ladder and discuss it with everyone.
Only three people can go up, and the remaining one has to stay below. It's not a good feeling to be isolated. But Du Ziming seemed to want to stay on his own initiative.
Because the person at the bottom actually controls the escape route. As long as he doesn't agree, he can make all the people who climb up fall down.
The first one to figure it out was obviously Du Ziming, followed by Miss Baitao.
However, Baitao did not argue with Du Ziming in this regard, and just calmly led the other two people upstairs. Then he took the ladder up.
Du Ziming was waiting below, knowing that these people would come back later.
So I simply sat down and hummed a song in the corner.
Huh?
He suddenly noticed that something was wrong. It seemed that water was flowing somewhere and was pouring into the room little by little.
"Hey, you guys have to hurry up." Du Ziming shouted to everyone upstairs: "The watering is starting down below."
Baitao: "Oh, it's okay. You stay down there for now. Anyway, you are noble and honorable, sacrificing yourself for others, right? We will remember the contribution you made to us with your life."
"Hehehe..." Du Ziming rolled his eyes. But he was not in a hurry. After all, Du Ziming could swim and could not drown for a while. He could also pull on the wall and float upward slowly.
But after that, how to lower the water level? and……
Although Baitao above told Du Ziming to wait for death, she did not really want to kill him. She still started looking for loopholes very seriously. Soon, the passage upwards on the ceiling was opened again.
This time it was Bai Tao and No. 3 who climbed up. Standing on the second floor, No. 8 found that water began to flow here, but the water flowed along the gaps to the floor below. In other words, the water on Du Ziming's side began to rise at twice the rate.
"Ah..." Du Ziming, who was already submerged up to his calves, smacked his lips: "Don't tell me. Well, it doesn't seem so interesting if I guess it."
He squatted down and started playing with the water, looking quite leisurely. By the way, knock around in the water to see if there is anything else you haven't discovered before.
Above his head, No. 8 noticed that Du Ziming was still calm, and he was somewhat impressed. If it were him, he would probably be anxious, right? At least the choice of hugging this thigh should be correct.
However, that might not be a thigh, but a demon that will pull him into the abyss.
Du Ziming looked up and smiled. As if watching an evil ghost in the world.
Although No. 8 couldn't see the expression behind the mask, he was still so scared that he swallowed his saliva.
Above the head, further up, Baitao held the ladder, asking Number Three to go up further. Obviously she hasn't completely conquered this guy yet, and is afraid that he will take her out of the way.
Those below may seem to be at a disadvantage, but in fact they control the escape route.
However, after No. 3 went up, he said in a puzzled tone: "I didn't see anything. Do I have to climb up again?"
It's possible... Bai Tao narrowed his eyes. There are only four people alive to this day, and it is very likely that the number of people who have passed the test will be lower than the required number. After all, she and Du Ziming had killed too many people. Both of them feel they have a sense of propriety, but together...
Is there still sense of proportion? Or maybe we have already lost, and the next step is to wait for the water to slowly fill the space and drown us?
Or maybe you want to rely on buoyancy to explore the ceiling when the water reaches the last layer? A bit difficult but not completely impossible?
It's also possible that Number Three is lying to himself.
Those standing below have a way out, but those standing below cannot see clearly what is above.
It's really... fun.
Baitao laughed, and Du Ziming at the bottom had already started swimming: "Hey, I will drown if I keep going. Put the ladder down to give me some buoyancy."
"Hmm..." Baitao thought for a moment after receiving the message from below, and began to pass the ladder down. No. 8 hesitated for a moment and lowered the ladder.
With only four people left, everyone reluctantly began to cooperate sincerely. There is really no way to pass the level if you don't cooperate.
If it was just Baitao or just Du Ziming, theoretically there wouldn't be so many deaths, but the two of them combined would create a situation that neither of them could control.
Situations like this seem to be more interesting for the two of them.
Have you been killed by your own arrogance? If this is the case, then the master's control over people's hearts is indeed terrifying. Put two similar people like me and Baitao in the same game, and the result will naturally be beyond our imagination.
Hehehehe...
Du Ziming began to think about how to break the situation. No matter what, the master cannot leave a fatal result, and...playing games like us should be encouraged by the master. If they all turned into Wu Hui's dead face, what else would he do?
So it's definitely not a dead end, but the way out... I guess is at your feet.
Ladders are given to us to focus our attention upwards. But the real key is at your feet. I was actually fooled by this little trick.
Sure enough, simplicity and ease of use do not conflict. But now the water is deep, and it is not easy to detect the situation below.
Du Ziming stood on the ground and walked. Holding on to the wooden ladder and relying on the buoyancy of the ladder to stand up straight, you must test the tiles on the ground.
Above the head, Baitao and others were all standing alone on their own floor. There was nothing they could do. Except talking. Du Ziming had no intention of taking the others next. Just stand on the ground and continue to test.
The room was not small, and before Du Ziming had finished testing all the tiles, the water level had already risen to the point where he could not touch the ground. Now Du Ziming could only hold the ladder and float upward.
Hahahaha...I probably understand. Du Ziming floated silently, but No. 8 started to get annoyed above him - if these two guys hadn't been messing around, how could there not be enough people to climb the ladder now?
"Hey." Du Ziming raised his head and glanced at him, obviously understanding what he was thinking: "Don't forget, you guys killed No. 10 together, and No. 2 was killed by you. What right do you have to blame me? Or just say …Are you actually busy regretting it?”
"You..." No. 8 gritted his teeth: "You are not in a hurry. Did you find something?"
Du Ziming: "Ah, I didn't find anything. But if I told you that we are safe now and nothing will happen, would you believe it?"
Number 8: “I want to believe it but to be honest I don’t really believe it.”
"Hehehehe... just wait. It will be over soon, but then you have to give me a hand, um... let me think about how to put the ladder up..." Du Ziming began to toss in the water.
