Sick beauty loses horse in thriller game

"First of all, the biggest and unusual thing about this mansion is that it can send us to different time and space. It has the function of connecting time and space." Fu Qiming said.

He didn't expect that his voice was still echoing in the corridor, but he saw the butler in a long gown suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Sir, are you sure you want to submit what you just said as your answer?" asked the shadow of the butler Cheng An.

He smiled at Fu Qiming and the others, and continued, "I have to kindly remind you that you only have three chances to try and fail. And it's not a zero-cost trial and error!"

"Once you give a wrong answer, the rules of the game will randomly select one person among the four of you to give you a punishment!"

After hearing what he said, Fu Qiming still hesitated cautiously.

"Let's... discuss this further first." he said.

"Okay. Please do as you please, don't worry about me." Cheng An said with a smile.

"Master Fu, what you just said... there shouldn't be any mistakes, right?" Jin Jiahui thought for a moment and said, "Maybe..."

As she spoke, she glanced at Cheng An. Although she didn't finish her sentence, everyone else understood what she wanted to express.

Jin Jiahui wanted to tell the others that maybe Cheng An didn't want them to come to the correct conclusion, which was why he appeared at this time and said those words to them before, just to influence their thinking and make them make wrong judgments.

Fu Qiming nodded to Jin Jiahui, indicating that this possibility did exist.

Cheng An followed the players, always with a mysterious smile on his face, making it impossible to judge his intentions from his expression.

"Since we have three chances to try and fail, why not give it a try?" Wen Ling thought for a moment and said.

Fu Qiming was a little hesitant.

After all, Cheng An’s words just now had been made very clear.

They have three chances to trial and error, but it is not zero-cost trial and error.

If they make the wrong choice, one of them will be punished according to the rules of the game.

They don’t know what kind of punishment they will face if they answer incorrectly, nor do they know what price they will have to pay for trial and error.

So, don’t answer questions rashly.

However, if we don't answer, we won't be able to get more accurate clues, and we can only waste a lot of precious time on constant and unfounded guesses.

Fu Qiming frowned, and for a moment, he was in a dilemma.

Others could more or less guess what Fu Qiming was worried about at the moment.

Seeing that he was still frowning and thinking, I didn't urge him.

Everyone followed Fu Qiming and walked forward, continuing to think along the way, hoping to discover new clues.

It was also at this time that Fu Qiming was about to continue walking forward, but a hand grabbed the hem of his clothes.

He looked back and saw that the person holding his clothes was actually Daisy, the robot arranged by Jiang Lai to follow them and assist them.

"Daisy, what's wrong? Did you discover something?" Fu Qiming stopped and asked.

Daisy shook her head and didn't say anything, but gestured to Fu Qiming to look forward.

Fu Qiming followed Daisy's gaze and looked forward, but couldn't help but gasp.

The large area in front, which is about ten square meters in size, and the area above the corridor is all illuminated by the light from overhead, turning it into a warm orange color.

When others saw the scene in front of them, they didn't think there was anything wrong.

To them, it was just a perfectly normal corridor.

Fu Qiming, however, broke out in a cold sweat.

Obviously, the area of ​​more than ten square meters in front is all orange area!

Once he steps into that area, a negative state will be immediately triggered, which will affect him and may even affect his ability to answer questions, thus affecting the entire team.

"Daisy, thank you for reminding me." Fu Qiming looked ahead with lingering fear and expressed his gratitude to Daisy.

Daisy nodded, still without saying anything, but she used her eyes to remind everyone not to just think about the problem and forget about the color areas and their own negative states.

"I think we should still give it a try." Wen Ling said, "It's not a solution to keep dragging it on like this."

Fu Qiming looked at the others and found that Wen Jiao and Jin Jiahui also nodded slightly, indicating that they agreed with Wen Ling's opinion. He stepped forward and said, "I want to answer the question."

"Okay. Go ahead." Cheng An floated to Fu Qiming's side and pretended to listen attentively.

"It's just like what I said just now. One of the three amazing things about the Treasure Mansion is that this mansion has the function of connecting different time and space, and can send players to different puzzle copies." Fu Qiming said.

Whether it was him or the other three, everyone thought that Fu Qiming was right.

Unexpectedly, Cheng An smiled at them, shook his head and said, "Congratulations, sir. You got the wrong answer."

"What?! Wrong?! How is this possible?!" Jin Jiahui said in surprise: "Are you deliberately deceiving us?"

"Cheating?" Cheng An raised his eyebrows and glanced at Jin Jiahui, then smiled and said, "In that case, I would be the one who broke the rules. Even if I break the rules of the game, I will be severely punished. It's not a good deal for me to break the rules just to deceive you."

"How could we be wrong?" Jin Jiahui still couldn't believe what she had just heard, the result announced by Cheng An.

"I'm sorry, Miss. I'm only responsible for judging right and wrong, not for answering your questions or telling you where your answers are wrong." Cheng An said.

As he spoke, he floated to the opposite side of the four players, his eyes wandering up and down, left and right, back and forth, sizing up the four players, and suddenly curled the corners of his lips.

"I've said it before, this game doesn't support zero-cost trial and error. Since you answered wrong just now, you should accept the corresponding punishment."

"Then... let me see, who should be chosen to be punished?"

"I was the one who answered wrong just now. So I should be the one to be punished now." Fu Qiming stepped forward and spoke.

"Tsk tsk, sir, your courage in protecting your companions is commendable, and it really touches me. But, unfortunately, you don't have the final say on who receives the punishment."
