Chapter 6 The Marriage of Roses (6) Mark of Death? …it’s pretty good-looking.
Qi Yunxiao took Yan Jinyue down to the fifth floor and walked to a small room at the end of the corridor.
What is written on the door is "Utility room, non-support personnel are not allowed to open it." However, there is a small staircase behind the door.
It was dark, and the walls and floors were painted with red paint, resembling cartoon images of animals, but they were deliberately exaggerated and distorted, making it appear eerie.
They went up the stairs and opened another door. Behind the door was the rooftop.
The rooftop is very wide, half the size of a track and field, and the wind is so strong that it hurts people's faces.
As soon as Yan Jinyue walked out, he pulled up the collar of his school uniform to cover his face.
The ground is covered with a black gel-like coating, which should be used for waterproofing.
It was empty here, with only some wooden boxes piled up randomly, and a few scattered in every corner. They had long been worn out by wind and rain, and there were dark green hairy mold spots.
The most eye-catching thing is the rose wall.
A broken wall stands out of thin air in the center of the rooftop, about two meters high. The wall skin has long since fallen off, and the surroundings are scattered. There is a broken wooden door with mottled green paint in the middle. However, such a broken wall is filled with beautiful flowers. rose.
Dense green leafy branches are intertwined, tightly entangled with the wall like snakes, and large rose flowers are dotted among them. The petals are deep red and layered in layers.
Yan Jinyue walked over, stared at the delicate petals, and couldn't help but stretched out her hand to touch it. The bud trembled, and a thin branch branched out from one side and wrapped around her fingertips.
"Hiss——"
She suddenly withdrew her hand, blood dripping from her fingertips.
"Don't touch them." Qi Yunxiao warned coldly.
Yan Jinyue felt the remaining tingling sensation on her fingertips and frowned: "It seems to have sucked my blood."
Qi Yunxiao's eyes flashed, he drew out his dagger and cut off a branch neatly. The petals and branches fell to the ground and instantly turned into a pool of blood.
He said solemnly: "Back off, this thing is probably raised by blood. If everyone gets entangled, people can be sucked into mummies."
"So evil?" Yan Jinyue hurriedly walked away.
Qi Yunxiao glanced at her, holding the dagger in his backhand, and slowly stepped back. When he was two meters away, he turned his wrist and the dagger flew out like an arrow from a bow, and was inserted directly into the door.
In an instant, the rose branches seemed to come alive, growing and pulling out like crazy, spreading their teeth and claws in mid-air, and then surrounded them.
"Let's go!" Qi Yunxiao grabbed Yan Jinyue's arm and ran towards the door. At the critical moment, he rushed in and closed the door.
The branches were blocked from the outside, and they rushed against the door crazily, and the two people blocked it from behind.
"Is this thing raised in school to eat people? Is it the crime in mission two?" Yan Jinyue gasped and guessed.
"It's very possible." Qi Yunxiao looked serious, "We have to leave as soon as possible. We will discuss other matters later."
"Okay." Jinyue nodded.
Qi Yunxiao asked her to go first. He was strong and had quick legs and feet to move behind.
Yan Jinyue was not pretentious. She nodded and carefully left the door. After confirming that he could withstand it alone, he rushed downstairs as fast as he could.
"I'm coming down, come here quickly." She shouted loudly.
Qi Yunxiao pressed the door with one hand and slowly moved out. The moment his hand was released, he directly supported the stair railing and fell down.
Yan Jinyue saw the man flipping down like he was juggling, blinking blankly, and waited for him to rush out the door before reacting and closing the door.
This time there was no movement behind the door, and the branches didn't seem to follow.
"It's okay." Qi Yunxiao said.
After the disaster, Yan Jinyue stroked her chest and let out a long sigh of relief. Perhaps it was a life and death experience. She felt that the cold man looked a lot more friendly, so she joked:
"You're really good at it. You weren't in the circus before, right?"
Qi Yunxiao didn't answer her, just stared at her face with complicated eyes.
"What's wrong?" Yan Jinyue was stared at and felt confused, "Is there something on my face?"
"There is a mirror inside, go and see it yourself." He pointed to the toilet on the side.
Yan Jinyue walked in confused, and her eyes widened when she saw the mirror above the sink. There is a lifelike petal in the center of her forehead.
The deep red color is exactly the same as that of a rose flower. It looks like it was painted on, but it cannot be rubbed off with your fingers, and it also seems to have seeped out from the skin.
"It should be because you were sucked by that flower just now." Qi Yunxiao walked over, "You can pray that it is not a death mark."
"What is the Mark of Death?"
"There is a type of ghost in the dungeon that likes to put some kind of mark on someone before killing someone, telling him that he will come to take his life, and that person will fall into endless fear to torture his spirit."
"So perverted?" Yan Jinyue clicked her tongue, "Then what should I do? Can it be removed?"
"Stay away from that flower, and others will be happy."
Yan Jinyue took a breath of air, which meant that the mark could not be removed. She looked at herself in the mirror with a sad face, and as she looked at it, she actually thought that the petals were quite pretty.
The petals are slender in shape and are dotted on the forehead, just like the flower buds that ancient ladies loved to draw, making her eyebrows more beautiful.
Forget it, she just pretended to be wearing classical makeup and a mark of death. She is also the girlfriend of a ghost after all, so what are you afraid of!
When she thought that Shen Wu's knife was still in the space, the fear in Yan Jinyue's heart was swept away.
She gave Qi Yunxiao an indifferent smile: "It doesn't matter, it's pretty good-looking anyway. Let's talk about the rest later."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Qi Yunxiao was a little surprised by her optimistic attitude. Even S-level players would be nervous if they were marked with such a mark, and most newcomers would be frightened when they hear it. Is she really indifferent, or is she just a newborn calf not afraid of tigers? ?
But the parties involved didn’t care, and there was no need for him to meddle in other people’s business. “Then let’s go.”
He turned around and walked out, and Yan Jinyue followed him and said, "What are we going to do now?"
"The first time I went up to the rooftop, I picked up a school badge."
Qi Yunxiao handed her a small rectangular object, with the class and name of the person it belonged to clearly written on it - Yang Lili, Class 7, Senior High School.
"You mean, the girl who fell just now might be Yang Lili?"
"It's not possible, it's certain." Qi Yunxiao paused and turned to look at her, "Look behind you."
At this time, they had gone down to the lobby on the first floor. Yan Jinyue turned around and saw a row of "Excellent Student Promotional Boards" with photos and profiles of outstanding student role models posted on them.
She brushed her eyes and focused on the name "Yang Lili, Class 7, Grade 3" and then looked at her photo.
Comparing this face with the bloody one in my mind, the face shape can match, the eyebrows and eyes can also match, basically it is certain that they are the same person.
"Can you remember this?"
Yan Jinyue was simply amazed. Although she often walked here and occasionally glanced at this place, she would not leave any impression on these people at all.
Qi Yunxiao said: "The class I am in now is Grade 3 (7). This Yang Lili is considered a key NPC and has a high sense of presence."
"Have you spoken to her? This key NPC should give some hints."
Qi Yunxiao shook his head, "I haven't communicated directly with her. She is a study committee member. The teacher often praised her during the three days of class, so I am deeply impressed by her."
"That's it..."
Yan Jinyue pursed her lips and thought, "Then why don't we get some clues from the classmates and teachers in Class 7?"
"I think so too." Qi Yunxiao nodded, "I'll go, you can wait here, or -"
"Why don't you go to class!" A stern scold interrupted him.
The two of them followed the sound and saw a middle-aged man in black uniform, holding a thick and long ruler in his hand, walking towards them menacingly.
This is the school's dean.
The dean stood in front of them, his eyes as sharp as knives: "Which class are you in? Why don't you go to class?"
Yan Jinyue blinked blankly. She had completely forgotten about going to class and hurriedly said: "We are going, we will go right away."
"Really?" The dean of students stared directly at her, and Yan Jinyue felt something was wrong.
The next moment, the corners of his lips opened into an incredible arc, and he said faintly: "Then you are already late now."
