Simply put.

Chen Ran's plan:

One: Of the five people in the Secret Room, two can forcibly step onto a surface. No matter the situation, Qiu Yinong and Chen Ran can only be exhausted to death, but cannot die to the chanisms.

They are basically in an invincible position.

Two: Force the two Three-Star players to speak a Future Lie and cooperate with each other. But with the BOSS's Skill present, this cooperation could potentially develop cracks, leading to a situation where Diwu Zeyi screws Long Hui to death.

Diwu Zeyi's plan:

One: Play along, speak the Future Lie with Long Hui, and reach a cooperation. At the sa ti, through conversation, tell Long Hui that he will first deal with Chen Ran, who seems to be in an invincible position, which also serves to remind the BOSS of what to do next.

Two: [One] is a scam. His true goal is to bamboozle the BOSS into transferring his soul away. That way, Diwu Zeyi will beco just like Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong—standing in an invincible position.

There are five people in the Secret Room.

If the plans all succeed, then three people will be in an invincible position, and the BOSS will be squeezed out of this Secret Room. Then...

Long Hui will ultimately be focus-fired!

Conclusion: The layouts of the two n contain nurous variations. If Chen Ran cannot screw Diwu Zeyi to death, it will ultimately evolve into a killing setup that screws Long Hui to death. By the sa logic, if Diwu Zeyi's sche cannot screw Chen Ran to death, it will evolve into a killing setup that screws Long Hui to death.

This story tells us that sotis remaining neutral doesn't allow one to stay out of trouble; instead, one becos the target of both sides' focus-fire.

'Both of them run the risk of being screwed to death by the other. If they can't screw each other to death, they will point their spears at .'

'However, to strike late and win—their current layouts have, from a certain perspective, already been laid out in the open.'

'Next, it should be my turn...'

'To counter their moves as they co!'

'Two endings: One, all five leave the Secret Room alive; Two, one dies.'

'[All leave alive]?'

'Out of the question!'

'Only [one dies] is left!'

'In other words, I need to guide the layouts of these two so the result trends towards ending two.'

'The key here lies in whether the BOSS's soul can co back after being squeezed out by [Emperor Erges from the Three Rivers]?'

'For example, when Diwu Zeyi's soul descends upon Lin Xiuyuan's corpse, does that an the BOSS's soul can descend upon Diwu Zeyi's physical body?'

'It shouldn't be possible!'

'The BOSS's Skill should only be effective on corpses. Diwu Zeyi isn't dead.'

'However, this remains in doubt. After all, God knows what effects [Usurpation] will have after being strengthened by [Emperor Erges from the Three Rivers].'

'Since that's the case.'

Long Hui secretly took a slingshot and two steel balls out of his backpack.

'As long as Diwu Zeyi dares to abandon his physical body, I'll blow his head off.'

...

After racking his brains, [Lin Xiuyuan] also finally deduced what Diwu Zeyi... wanted him to deduce.

'Diwu Zeyi wants to transfer my soul away so he can switch back and forth between his true body and Lin Xiuyuan's corpse.'

'The reason the two of them established the Future Lie is to tell that if I don't transfer my soul away, no one will die.'

'Since that's the case.'

[Lin Xiuyuan] looked at the four. "You guys play. I'm leaving first!"

The next mont, Lin Xiuyuan just fell stiffly to the ground.

The four: "..."

'Co on, bro, you have to at least occupy the Center surface before leaving, ahhhh!'

The four facepald, gaining a new understanding of this BOSS's level of stupidity.

However, before long, [Lin Xiuyuan] suddenly stood up again.

He scratched his head with an awkward expression. "Uh, sorry, I haven't occupied the Center surface yet."

Chen Ran, Qiu Yinong, and Long Hui took a deep look at the Lin Xiuyuan who had stood back up, but didn't say much.

They all quietly waited for the Secret Room's next change. At this mont, all of them were already feeling a dizzy and swelling sensation in their brains.

Before long, the Secret Room didn't undergo any obvious changes like the previous tis; only the characters on the five surfaces changed.

Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong were in the center. They found that the character on the surface beneath their feet had turned into...

[Bitter]!

At the sa ti, Diwu Zeyi and Long Hui, who occupied the bottom two surfaces, also found that the characters on the surfaces beneath their feet had turned into...

[Acrid/Spicy]

[Sour]

[Lin Xiuyuan], standing on the North surface, looked at the [Acrid] beneath his feet and fell into deep thought.

In just an instant.

Chen, Qiu, Di, and Long—the four imdiately recalled the distinctions of the five viscera's colors in the "Five Virtues Cycle" theory in their minds.

Heart: Late Sumr, tastes Bitter, color is Red.

Spleen: Long Sumr, tastes Sweet, color is Yellow.

Liver: Late Spring, tastes Sour, color is Green.

Kidneys: Late Winter, tastes Salty, color is Black.

Lungs: Late Autumn, tastes Acrid, color is White.

At the sa ti, the attributes of the five viscera: Lungs are tal, Heart is Fire, Liver is Wood, Kidneys are Water, Spleen is Earth.

'This Secret Room is the Spleen.'

'The Spleen belongs to Earth.'

'Generating: Earth generates tal.'

'The Lungs belong to tal and taste Acrid. Therefore, [Acrid] is one of the safe surfaces.'

'Overcoming: Wood overcos Earth.'

'The Liver belongs to Wood and tastes Sour. Therefore, [Sour] is one of the safe surfaces.'

'Generating and Overcoming: Earth generates tal, Fire overcos tal.'

'The Heart belongs to Fire and tastes Bitter. Therefore, [Bitter] is also one of the safe surfaces.'

'Conclusion: [Acrid], [Sour], and [Bitter] are all safe surfaces...'

Everyone's expressions were strange. They thought to themselves, could it be that the little foreigner nad Charlie was eaten by soone in the end? Otherwise, why would the derivative secret room of this patient room involve the five tastes?

There were the Five Elents, the Eight Trigrams, and even cannibalism. It was like so kind of... ritual!

However, at this mont, it was too late for them to delve deeply into the plot. Instead, they imdiately confird the positions of the safe surfaces.

The Center surface occupied by Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong was one of the safe surfaces.

Neither of them moved.

Instead, it was [Lin Xiuyuan] who imdiately took off running towards the Center surface.

Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong exchanged a glance and didn't stop him, but allowed [Lin Xiuyuan] to smoothly step onto the Center surface.

Seeing that the two Three-Star players also hadn't moved, Chen Ran could be certain that the top two surfaces...

Were dangerous surfaces!

'Perfect!'

'In the next round, if the Center surface is a dangerous surface, then one of the top two surfaces will be a safe surface.'

'With Qiu Yinong and in the center, we can reach the safe surface at the top the fastest.'

'We'll yield the Center surface to the others to fight over, and sit back to watch them sche.'

Long Hui narrowed his eyes. When he saw that the two on the Center surface hadn't moved, he knew that Chen Ran and Qiu Yinong were temporarily safe.

Next, it would depend on how Diwu Zeyi chose to operate. Would he pull a fast one, or...

[Lin Xiuyuan]: "Everyone, you guys continue. I'm leaving first."

Having said that, Lin Xiuyuan's corpse fell once again, collapsing onto the Center surface.

The two and a half minutes quickly passed. A massive amount of black smoke poured into the Secret Room. Glass covers rose from the three safe surfaces, enclosing the people on the surfaces to protect them from harm.

Once the change had passed, the four in the Secret Room knew that what ca next was...

The ti to determine life and death in a single battle!
