The Grim Reaper Can't Be Tricked

The time to perform on stage was delayed by 3 minutes, the staff urged, the host with his back to the audience stared into the dark passage with a dark face: Hurry up!

Ivan, who was carrying the magic painting, ran over in a hurry: "What about me? When will this painting be put down? I feel it blowing in my ears."

Cen Jin: "Why are you here?"

Ivan: "I don't know either."

Ding Yiqing: "Stay in the background and don't run around, there are still four hours."

Cen Jin was quite surprised. Could it be that Ding Yiqing guessed the reason for the fifth space-time interleaving when he could tell such an accurate time?wrong--

"Not four times?"

Ding Yiqing handed him the wet wipes he didn't know where to get: "Not only."

Pat: "Are you sure you can go on stage together?"

Cen Jin took the wet towel and wiped his face, without turning his head, he said, "Yes."

Throwing away the wet wipes, Cen Jin hurried over, passing through a dark and narrow backstage passage, with a dazzling light ahead.

Pat was at the front, encouraging everyone with suppressed excitement: "Our dreams will come true! I can get the promotion card for City of Rock and Roll, and you can complete the mission safely. Tonight is the night of fantasy, the night of dreams , you see, even the moon tonight is a red moon that occurs once in a hundred years."

In the eyes of several people, the scary red moon is actually a dreamlike miracle in Pat's eyes.

But 'job done safely'... did Pat see it?

Pat turned back, with a sincere smile, inclusive eyes, full of understanding: "Of course I can see that you are not a professional band, which professional band would let cen be the lead singer?"

Cen Jin who was caught by the cue for no reason: "?"

"Theoretically speaking, you should not be able to get admission tickets, so you must have special means, just like Agent Belle and 007 who have countless false identities to cover up their jobs... I understand you, and thank you for inviting me to be your part of the show." travel companion."

There was a bright and soft light in Pat's eyes: "I'm honored to be your partner."

Wu Yujie patted Pat on the shoulder and said, "We are also very happy to meet you."

Boss Long stepped forward and patted Pat on the shoulder with the back of his hand: "You saved our band."

Jiang Bai Pingcuo smiled and walked over.

Li Daoyi: "You saved my embarrassment, we should thank you even more."

Cen Jin whispered to Ding Yiqing, "Don't take it to heart, you're not that bad."

Ding Yiqing sneered, feeling chilly, and left without saying anything.

Cen Jin pinched his chin and thought to himself, being hit, his self-esteem was hurt, and he became angry from embarrassment.

Shaking his head, Cen Jin wanted to invite Ding Yiqing to play after the matter was settled, and he would treat it as an apology.

Pinching the palm, Cen Jin inexplicably felt that there was still a little warmth left there, and his mind still remembered the cold jade-like touch, and then shook his head violently, what were he thinking!Can Ding Yiqing, such a bright and beautiful flower of high mountains, be able to think about it?

Pat asked suspiciously: "Do you have a fever? Your face is a little red."

Cen Jin: "Dude, how can you see my blushing in such a dark light?"

Pat laughed and said, "Your skin is fairer than Europeans."

Cen Jin stepped out of the darkness, with bright lights overhead. The three sides of the stage were filled with auditoriums, which were almost full. There were seven to eight hundred people. After two hours of rock music bombardment, the enthusiasm of the audience was basically exhausted, and the interest in their team was almost exhausted. It's not big, and there are very few calls.

With seven people standing side by side, Jiang Bai Pingcuo blocked the microphone and said to the others: "The private room on the fifth floor is facing the stage, and four people including Nolen and Mrs. Leadman are in it. I didn't understand why they stayed here— —The upper class basically don't like rock and roll, and now I know why.

They care about the aisle in the middle of the stage, waiting for the end of the rock and roll competition. "

Wu Yujie: "I don't understand, why are rock music held here?"

Li Daoyi: "If it's not a rock music, it's an Italian opera. The real organizer of the rock music this time is the Kroll family. They have a huge influence. They have a business relationship with the four of Nolen, so they have to sell face."

Boss Long sneered: "The audience on the lower three floors are all young people who support rock music, and the audience on the upper two floors really want to watch the show Fantastic Night, so they have to endure two hours of eardrum bombardment...these people are really interesting."

Cen Jin: "In the next 5 minutes of the exhibition game, arouse Rocky's interest in us." He grabbed the microphone, shouted, the speaker made a harsh sound, everyone covered their ears, and cursed sparsely Send it over.

Ding Yiqing disagreed: "It may not be a friendly army." After finishing speaking, he plucked the strings of the guitar, and the notes of metal rhythm resounded in the audience instantly, covering up the harsh microphone noise of the last second.

Then the lights were all turned off, leaving only a few bright lights on the stage, several speakers exploded at the same time, and the heavy metal rhythm music suddenly exploded. At the beginning, there was a rap that was so fast that the words could not be heard clearly. It is looming in the heavy metal music accompaniment that resounds through the eardrums, perfectly covering the arrhythmia and out-of-tune problems.

The young audience below screamed hoarsely, and fireworks and smoke effects were set off at the edge of the stage. Cen Jin, who had no self-knowledge, was inspired to forget his real purpose, grabbed the microphone pole and sang and danced , Crazy interaction, words one by one boom faster.

Wu Yujie: Shit!The pace is fast!

Jiangbai Pingcuo: Cooperate with him.

Li Daoyi: I can't flick my fingers.

Boss Long: MD's finger is about to break, come and beat Huang Mao to death!

Ding Yiqing frowned and pursed her lips, struggling to keep up with the rhythm: It's okay.

After a short period of looking at each other, the teammates had to play at a faster speed, and the fingers flew up, almost into afterimages, and the sweat was pouring down. Boss Long's neck was bursting with blue veins, and he was almost out of breath. up.

After finally ending the rap, the dead yellow hair was still howling up to the sky, and the tail trembled and trembled for a long time, and the audience howled, as if Yeyue, a wolf, and a wolf echoed across the mountain. Finally, it came to an end and entered the normal singing part, and everyone unanimously relaxed in one breath.

However, when Pat really opened his voice, everyone couldn't help but look weird, and finally understood why Pat, who had a good voice and sang a cappella like his own stereo, failed to realize his dream after so many years.

It's not that he can't sing well, on the contrary, if you turn off the stereo and the soundtrack, his singing is like the sound of nature.

But when paired with audio and soundtrack, it is very weird, like Diamond Sutra a cappella with disco music, Ode to Joy music with heavy metal rock, it's not that it's bad, but it doesn't match each other.

Sure enough, there was a strange silence in the auditorium.

Pat is still unconscious, intoxicated in the world of music.

Wu Yujie: I didn't expect the Diva of Death to be someone else.

Li Daoyi: Miscalculation.

Jiang Bai Pingcuo's face and temperament are very Buddhist, and his mentality has also changed: it's quite interesting.

Boss Long's expression was distorted: Why did no one persuade me to wear a mask on stage?I can't afford to lose this man!

Ding Yiqing was quite calm, still frowning. Comment: It's ugly.

The rest: Get out!

Pat sang this part for most of the song. At the end of the song, someone in the audience suddenly shouted: "Cool!" Go on stage and kiss each musician like they are some kind of world superstar.

Finally, it ended with Cen Jin’s ugly rap, the lights were bright, the audience and the judges were blushing and panting, their expressions were excited, as if witnessing the birth of a superstar, only Ding Yiqing, who had not opened his voice, stood behind Cen Jin and Pat with expressionless faces , indifferent to the excitement ahead.

After the judges finished their comments and gave them promotion cards to the City of Music, the host came on stage again, and Cen Jin and the others stepped down.

Once backstage, Cen Jin held Pat's hand and couldn't help admiring: "Your part is really the finishing touch."

Pat shook back: "Forgive me for not being able to appreciate it before, and your part is also quite shocking. Are you interested in forming a team with me and going to the City of Music together?"

Cen Jin was in a dilemma: "I have a job."

Pat: "Just quit, you won't make any money."

Cen Jin: "My son doesn't think my mother is ugly, and I don't think I have too little money. It's all for dreams."

Pat regretted but understood: "Yes. But the winner of the final competition of Music Master is worth [-] Euros. If the records are managed well, they may become multi-millionaires."

Cen Jin: "When is the match? Is the opponent strong? What record will be released? How many copies? When? Five-five-five-fifths-uhhhh!!"

Ding Yiqing crossed Cen Jin's shoulders from behind and hugged him, covering his mouth. Boss Long picked up his legs, and the group cooperated well and quickly forcibly dragged Huang Mao, who was open to money, away.

Jiang Bai Pingcuo and Li Daoyi followed closely behind, Wu Yujie smiled and said that Cen Jin was just joking, and it is impossible to change jobs.

Pat smiled: "It's such a good relationship."

The competition ranking list will come out later, the backstage band and staff are all dispersed, Pat packs up his things and prepares to leave, and helps turn off the lights by the way, opens the door and prepares to leave, when he hears a sound coming from the dark place in the back room, he subconsciously turns around and asks: "anyone here?"

no respond.

Pat asked a few more questions, and then turned on the light to check again to make sure that no one left.

After a while, a figure crawled out from the clothes, half of its face was scorched, and it seemed to be covered by a thick layer of bark. The red moonlight cast down, and she looked at the black gold that she picked up on the ground just now. The ring, gestured between the middle and ring fingers, finally put away, and climbed into the ventilation duct.

If Pat was there, he would definitely recognize her as his former teammate.

She climbed into the ventilation duct, hid in the hidden place of the hull, and watched everyone's secrets. She watched Cen Jin and others discuss how to deal with Mrs. Leadman in a small room, and crawled away after listening for a while. He cast a quick glance at Mrs. Leadman, and finally crawled towards the box room.

In the small room, Cen Jin asked Ding Yiqing how he knew that four hours later would be the fifth time-space interleaving, and Ding Qingqing took out the ship maintenance documents that were previously in Nolen's safe.

"The first one is not a document, but an archaeological document from the Viking period, marked with a lot of time, and one of them is a man-made and added time, which corresponds to the first time-space alternation.

These four documents are the maintenance date of the hull respectively, and the first two documents correspond to the time of the second and third time-space interleaving. "

Cen Jin frowned: "Five times in total?"

"Perhaps there will be a sixth time." Ding Yiqing pointed at the document with his index finger thinking about it: "The six times are the birth, rebirth and death of the ship spirit. There is only one birth and one death respectively."

"Rebirth refers to the maintenance of the hull. Each maintenance will be fed to the cage beast, a total of four times."

"Why?" Li Daoyi asked: "Why is the interlacing of time and space closely related to the spirit of the ship?"

Ding Yiqing: "If I knew, I wouldn't run back and forth between the two time-spaces and directly deal with the ship spirit."

For a while, everyone was silent.

The issues and scope involved here are too profound and too broad for them to understand, what's more, it cannot be understood by human beings with a short lifespan of a hundred years.

Wu Yujie: "The world is too profound."

And humans are too small.

Huang Mao, who was on the sidelines, knew the number of time-space interleavings and was closely related to the ship spirit, which happened to be six times—Ding Yiqing guessed that there was also the death of the ship spirit.

As of the early spring of 2020, the ship spirit died.

Why exactly six times?

The ship spirit was born in the Viking period, during which there were no newborns for more than 1000 years. During the four years from 96 to 99, they were given newborns by the four Norens. They were severely injured and disappeared tonight. They reappeared 20 years later, but they just happened to meet When time and space intersect, being killed by the past 'Cen Jin' and 'Ding Yiqing'——

Huang Mao is sure that Chuan Ling was dealt with by him and Ding Yiqing in the past.

But the more he saw the trajectory, the more panicked he became. The cause and effect trajectory was clear at a glance, like a script that had been written long ago, but this script did not include the participation of the Supreme God Ding Yiqing, which gave him an unspeakable sense of fear.

Eliminate the rest of the distracting information, including the participation of 'Cen Jin' and 'Ding Yiqing', they are characters who got involved by mistake, they are insignificant supporting roles that promote the story line of the 'protagonist', without them there is 'Ding' Today', 'Cen Yuqing'.

These are useless noises, so what's left after weed out?

The complete Ship Spirit storyline.

The birth, rebirth, and death of the ship spirit correspond to six times of time-space interleaving. This is a story line written only for it. The time-space interleaving is an experiment for the ship spirit...?

Why?Who can do this experiment?

Huangmao's throat was gripped by fear, he could hardly breathe, and the answer was ready to come out.

Ding Yiqing shared the information he had found, and several people reorganized it: "First of all, the fantasy night show started at 12 o'clock in the morning tonight, riots broke out around two o'clock, and ended at 3:07.

Almost all the crew disappeared. The cruise ship became a ghost ship and disappeared in the Norwegian Sea. It was bought by the Kroll family 20 years later. After a simple renovation, more than 200 anchors were tricked into boarding the ghost ship in order to explore it.

There is no caged beast in this renovation, which does not count as the number of rebirths of the ship spirit.

[Almost all members are missing] is the result of tonight. The ghost ship 20 years later has no bones of tourists, so we can make a fuss from the point of 'missing' and save more than 1000 tourists. "

"Secondly, in addition to the result of [almost all missing], the ghost ship also disappeared. According to the feature of time and space interlacing, it can be guessed that the ghost ship may be lost in the chaotic torrent of time and space. I don't know how the Kroll family found out... Having said that, You should also pay attention to the frequent appearance of the Kroll family."

Li Daoyi: "You can't tell the head office and the head school."

Boss Long: "It's useless to say it, the Kroll family is the biggest cash warehouse of the headquarters."

Ding Yiqing: "You can talk to the Huaxia District Headquarters."

Cen Jin: "Returning to the topic itself, the ghost ship 20 years later has five monsters: box house monster, ship spirit, black skin monster, red skirt monster, and black water and white shadow. The black skin monster is a friend and has died.

Ding Yiqing and I have seen and fought against the remaining four. Heishui Baiying is the same as Susan. So far, it is very good at disguising.

I was ambushed twice, once in the black water of the auditorium, and I could feel it was less aggressive.The other time was in the power pod, where it locked the pod as it escaped, I don't know its purpose.

I didn't know the identity of the black-skinned monster, why it saved me, and why it hated weirdness so much... Once Ding Yiqing said that he saw a female rock musician who was poured human skull soup in the boiler room, I guessed her identity . "

The black-skinned monster is Pat's former teammate, Mrs. Leadman's female lover, and a black-skinned female rock musician.

"She was coaxed by Mrs. Leadman to drink human skull soup, and she underwent a mutation, but she was rescued by Lao Ding in time, so she should stop the transformation in time," Boss Long said.

"Human skull soup has the effect of drugs. I can't help but want to try it when I smell it. Once I taste the soup, it is impossible to quit." Cen Jin, who almost drank the soup several times, has a say in this, "The rest is the red dress The identity of the monster and Susan."

"The Boiler Room is Mrs. Leadman's place, where the red-dress monster 20 years from now is making human skull soup and manipulating aberrant rock girls."

Wu Yujie: "So Mrs. Leadman turned into a monster in a red dress...how did she change?"

Cen Jin: "I'll find out tonight."

Ding Yiqing: "Human skull soup will mutate humans into monsters. This is the origin of the box monster and the caged beast, so they signed the document to purchase the caged beast together."

Cen Jin: "The owner of that document isn't Noren?"

Ding Yiqing: "Noren provides the monster original body, is responsible for raising it, and buys bone broth from Mrs. Leadman."

Li Daoyi: "Noren is in charge of raising monsters, and Mrs. Leadman boils bone broth out of human heads. What role will the other two play? Twenty years later, Mrs. Leadman will become a monster in a red dress. Noren, What about Robin and Loki? What have they become?"

Cen Jin: "There is a high chance that Susan is one of the three."

Ding Yiqing: "Loki."

Cen Jin: "Why?"

Ding Yiqing: "The god of lies is ever-changing. He still has feminine products in his room, but he has no female companions around him."

Cen Jin: "I'll find a way to get close to Rocky to test it out." He looked at the time and said, "There are still three hours and 35 minutes left. Let's split up and go now."

Ding Yiqing: "No need." He looked in the direction of the door: "Someone is coming."

As soon as the words fell, someone knocked on the door, and Boss Long leaned on the door and twisted open the door. At the door was Iwan who was carrying the magic painting hard.

"..."

Ivan: "First, gentlemen, can I put down the magic painting? It's really... really heavy, and it's getting heavier."

Boss Long dragged Ivan in, followed by three men in black standing at the door: "Mr. Nolen is inviting you all to dinner."

Cen Jin: "We've had dinner, thank you."

The man in black said it again: "Mr. Nolen, Mrs. Leadman, and Mr. Rocky invite you to have dinner and join us in tonight's fantasy night show."

Cen Jin jumped up and rushed over: "Wait a minute, let's change our outfits." After he slammed the door, he ran over and patted Ding Yiqing's arm: "Okay, Xiao Ding, your ears are better than dogs."

Ding Yiqing: "I don't need your praise."

Cen Jin smiled meanly: "You're welcome, Xiao Ding."

Ding Yiqing frowned, and looked at Cen Jin hesitantly: "You did it on purpose."

Cen Jin just smiled and said nothing.

Ding Yiqing stared at Cen Jin for a long time, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Cen Jin's curly hair: "Huang Mao, go take a bath, you have the smell of soup on your body, it has attracted the attention of the enemy, you can wash it off The bait."

Cen Jin slapped it away and lowered his face: "Who are you calling?"

Ding Yiqing said softly, "Don't make trouble."

When Cen Jin smelled the rich fragrance of Ding Yiqing, his pupils trembled slightly. Do you still wear perfume?It doesn't smell bad.

"Time waits for no one, hurry up. We still have to do a good job of evacuating the crowd, so as not to attract the attention of the enemy." Ding Yiqing pushed Cen Jin into the bathroom and quickly locked the door: "Be obedient, Huangmao."

Cen Jin suddenly barked, roared twice before howling: "I didn't take my clothes!"

Ding Yiqing: "It's placed on the shelf."

After a long while, Cen Jin said speechlessly, "How long have you planned... Do I smell that bad?"

Wu Yujie leaned against the frosted glass of the bathroom and said, "Anyone of us would have been kicked into the open sea by Lao Ding to take a bath."

Cen Jin: "Don't come here!"

"..." Wu Yujie endured and endured: "Damn yellow hair!"

The group quickly changed into clothes that were convenient for movement. Cen Jin sat by the window with wet hair, and threw the hair dryer to Boss Long for help.

Boss Long threw it backhand to Li Daoyi: "No time."

Li Dao threw it to Jiang Bai Pingcuo, and the latter threw it to Wu Yujie. Wu Yujie said succinctly: "Get lost."

In the end, the hair dryer fell on Ding Yiqing, and he had no objection, and helped Cen Jin blow his yellow hair.

Wu Yujie slapped the smoking Boss Long with her backhand, kicked away Jiangbai Pingcuo's pile of Buddhist beads, Jiangma pestle, and books on geography, folk customs and county annals of various countries bought by Li Daoyi, and squinted her eyes to look at the blown hair and help blow it. two men.

Boss Long hid his gun in his waist: "What are you looking at?"

Wu Yujie hid the short sword in her skirt and muttered, "Dog boy."

Boss Long was confused: What did I do?Why call me a dog?Why!

Annoyed, he chased Wu Yujie's theory, and the impatient Wu Yujie yelled 'Get out! ', pulled out the sword and killed, and accidentally cut the books in Li Daoyi's collection.

Li Dao's face was blackened for a moment, and he secretly made a black hand.

Jiang Bai Pingcuo quickly hid his collection, hid in the corner and said Om Mani Padme Hum.

In the chaotic scene, Ding Yiqing calmed down, blowing Cen Jin's hair, and his style of painting was quite harmonious.

"That..." Ivan asked in a low voice in the chaos: "Can the magic painting be put down? Really, it's so heavy, it's talking in my ear, and the sound is getting clearer and clearer."
