Chapter 8 Physical Education Student
"What's wrong?" Lin Yi's reaction made Wei Liang feel like he was facing a formidable enemy. He quickly stretched his neck and asked, "What's going on?"
Lin Yi pointed to the symbols of the teaching building and the school gate on the map, traced the route between the two, and then said: "Liangzi, look..."
"On the road from the school gate to here, there are street lights on both sides, and And judging from the distance between street lights, the whole journey is actually not long..."
"But do you remember how long we walked to the teaching building?"
Wei Liang was stunned for a moment, then looked like he was thinking hard, and made calculation movements with his hands, and then hesitated: "Ah, this... seems to be an hour? Oh no, it's almost two hours, right?"
"It's one hour and forty-five minutes." Lin Yi held his forehead and corrected helplessly, "But judging from the distance on the map, the entire journey is only about ten minutes of walking at most."
Wei Liang said: "But don't forget, Old Lin, the fog was very thick when we came, and we followed the security guard for a while."
He proposed that he Opinion: "Is it because we went in circles?"
"It's impossible to go around in circles." Lin Yifeng said, "The security guard has an iron chain tied to his body, and the chain was pulled straight by the chef. If we went in circles, the chain couldn't look like that."
"Huh? Oh, you're right." Wei Liang closed his mouth and began to think.
Lin Yidao: "And have you noticed, the street lamp numbers on the map are actually confusing. I've seen it many times, and I can't find any pattern in it."
Wei Liang grabbed the map and observed it carefully. He saw a bunch of street lamp poles scattered on the short road between the school gate and the teaching building.
The distribution of these streetlight poles is completely irregular, just like the person who planned the streetlights scattered a handful of rice and inserted a streetlight pole wherever it was scattered.
「这么密集的路灯杆，怎么都不可能一次性只看得到一根吧？」
魏亮迟疑道：「难道是……鬼打墙？」
「……」
魏亮又道：「如果不能用科学来解释的话，那不是只能用玄学来破了吗？」
Hearing this, Lin Yi looked at Wei Liang very seriously, and said in a sincere and sincere tone: "Then I wonder if you, Fusheng Wei Liang, have any great powers?"
Wei Liang's face instantly became embarrassed: "Old Lin, Aren't you trying to kill me! Old Lin...Old Lin, what are you doing?"
Lin Yi was joking, but he didn't let it go. At this time, he was using a pen to connect the numbers on the map from high to low.
Soon a picture like a messed up ball of wool appeared on the map.
Lin Yi frowned and looked at the picture, unable to make any sense at all.
At this moment, a classmate walked up to Lin Yi and Wei Liang, opened a chair and sat on it.
He seemed to have come here deliberately, glanced at Lin Yi's masterpiece, and couldn't help but said: "I advise you not to study the secrets of this campus too much, abide by the rules honestly, and leave after seven days." There are comics on my bookshelf, both serious and non-serious, just flip through them to pass the time."
This voice interrupted Lin Yi's thinking. He turned around and saw a male classmate wearing a blue and white striped sportswear, looking at them with a half-smile.
This male classmate had a shaved head, a lollipop in his mouth, and the outline of his tendons was faintly visible under his sportswear. He was holding a Hong Kong-style comic book in his hand.
"All the experiential classes on the curriculum, except for the physical education class, are all just a formality in the classroom, so...just read the comics." Lin Yi asked curiously: "Classmate, who are you?"
"My name is Xu Shunkang, a physical education student." He stretched out his hand, "Nice to meet you, new ones."
Lin Yi was slightly startled.
"Is this...a sports student?"
Wei Liang excitedly held Xu Shunchang's hand and shook it up and down: "Man, sports student! Nice to meet you! I am Wei Liang, he is Lin Yi, we are classmates... Well, I mean, we are classmates from other schools, here to experience university life together."
Seeing Lin Yi still frowning slightly and staying in place, Wei Liang couldn't help but reach out and elbow him.
Lin Yi came back to his senses, met Xu Shunkang's gaze, and nodded: "I heard it."
Seeing Lin Yi like this, Xu Shunkang knew in his heart that Lin Yi must not have listened to his words. He could only open his mouth, then shook his head and sighed: "Hey, I wish you good luck."
After he finished speaking, he looked around, scanning the classmates who had gathered around Lin Yi one by one, and finally landed on the comic book at hand.
While flipping through, he muttered: "Silly author, you just drew a plot that makes these dogs sick!"
Lin Yi glanced at the cover of the comic book. The title was probably "Mountains and Seas Green War"...
"Do you want to read it too? If so, I'll get some over there?" Wei Liang came over and whispered.
Lin Yi rolled his eyes: "I'm still thinking about the student code..."
"As long as you don't worry about the weird things in this campus anymore." Wei Liang breathed a sigh of relief, "Old Lin, let me tell you, when you are in the campus, the words of the physical education teachers and students are sometimes difficult to listen to, but since ancient times, loyal words are offensive, so you should still listen to them."
Lin Yi looked at Xu Shunkang and murmured: "From his tone, it seems that he knows many secrets of the campus?"
Wei Liang quickly said: "I heard that the physical education students and art students themselves are students on this campus, not experiencers like us. So I know more secrets, but I advise you not to ask..."
"If the school is going to cover up any secrets, they must be tight-lipped from top to bottom, and...how can the school, which only pays 30,000 yuan for a seven-day trial class, not have any secrets?"
"My idea is that we go to class obediently, and then we take the money and leave."
"Isn't your grandma still short of money for medical treatment? Don't think so much!"
Lin A confused look appeared in Yi's eyes: "Milk...milk?"
Wei Liang looked solemn: "Holy shit, you've even forgotten this?"
Lin Yi couldn't help but frowned.
Wei Liang quickly emphasized: "You are here to subsidize your grandma's medical expenses, Lao Lin!"
Hearing this, the blank look in Lin Yi's eyes faded a lot, and then nodded: "Oh... it seems so."
He was silent for a while, and then said, "At least... we have to wait until we confirm Mao Zi's safety, right?"
When Mao Feiyang entered the stairwell, he felt as if he had lost something. The feeling of isolation from the world was really too strong the moment Mao Feiyang closed the door. It was so strong that Lin Yi felt that Mao Feiyang had left the world from that moment on.
This subconscious sense of completion was like an indescribable will, urging him to get Mao Feiyang back.
"Before that, I still want to understand something as clearly as possible."
"Even if we don't think about the thick fog like a quagmire, and ignore the strange figures and strange street lights in the fog, at least we have to figure out what the endless stairs were, right?"
"I'm afraid that Maozi is trapped in there and can't get out."
Wei Liang hesitated for a moment: "Then... at least we have to wait until we get back to the dormitory, right?"
Lin Yi and the others knew that they would be randomly assigned to different classrooms before coming here, but the dormitory was optional, so they decided to live in the same room with six people, so that they could take care of each other.
Wei Liang heard this and glanced out the window.
It was dark outside the teaching building, and thick fog covered the entire campus like a quilt. The pattering raindrops kept hitting the glass windows and then slid down in the direction of the wind, as if someone was blowing the windows.
"It's raining." Wei Liang's expression became serious, "It's not raining very hard. I don't know if it can stop at nine o'clock..."
The student regulations stipulate that you can only return to the dormitory between 21:00 and 22:00. If you cannot go back, you have to stay in the classroom overnight.
Lin Yi glanced at his watch subconsciously.
20:34.
Looked out the window again.
It was pitch black, nothing could be seen, only the raindrops hitting the glass of the window little by little.
He didn't know what he thought of, so he squinted his eyes, then got up and walked to the window.
He breathed a sigh of relief, then wiped the glass with his sleeve, then put his face against it and looked out the window.
But at this moment, he saw his own shadow in the glass. The shadow was very far away from him. It is conservatively estimated that the thickness of the window glass is more than 6cm!
"Such a specification?!"
His pupils suddenly dilated, and he was shocked!
"This is military grade anti-blast glass?!"
He quickly went to look at other window glass, but the more he looked at it, the more frightened he felt.
"The glass in the entire classroom is of this specification, even the side near the corridor!"
He took a deep breath, slowly suppressed the shock in his heart, and then put his face close to the glass again, observing the environment outside the window.
The fog outside the teaching building was thick and thick, like a quilt covering the campus, so heavy that even the moonlight could not penetrate.
His eyes kept moving, and he finally found sparse lights in the rain and fog...
It was the light of a street lamp. Looking out from the window of the teaching building, the scattered lights were like scattered pearls.
"It's indeed a bit complicated, and it's just like the one on the map... very scattered. So why didn't we see street lights like this when we came here before, but one by one?"
He narrowed his eyes again and couldn't help but recall the original scene.
Have you missed it, or... is the reality really like that?
He felt that his cognition had some distortions...but the facts were black and white, so they wouldn't be stuck in the middle, right?
At this moment, that weird feeling that guided thinking appeared again. It quietly penetrated into Lin Yi's thinking, leading him to think like this -
"What's going on?"
He then started thinking without any awareness of himself.
But as soon as he started thinking, that feeling of exhaustion emerged from the bottom of his heart again.
He felt a little strenuous and tired, as if he wanted to stop thinking and just fall asleep...
He felt a strong sense of vigilance in his heart, forcing himself to break away from thinking and bring his will back to the world.
Gradually, when he gradually woke up, Wei Liang's voice also sounded in his ears.
"Old Lin! What do you want to do! Old Lin, Old Lin!!!"
At this moment, a hand was put on his shoulder, shaking him crazily.
He was shaken awake.
"Liangzi? Did I just...?!" Lin Yi looked at Wei Liang in surprise.
At this moment, Wei Liang's face was full of anxiety and fear. Through his eyes, Lin Yi suddenly realized that——
He was surrounded again!
The exact same situation as before occurred, and he was suddenly surrounded by classmates.
They gathered here as densely as sunflower seeds, blocking him by the window.
And these students still have that weird standardized smile on their faces that looks like they were copied and pasted!
Such a smile coupled with the waxy white face that looked malnourished gave Lin Yi a strong illusion that he was in a wax museum.
This time not only Wei Liang came, but the former sports student named Xu Shunkang also stood beside him at some point.
Xu Shunkang protected him and Wei Liang behind him, and he put up a posture of taking action at any time, confronting this dense group of people with alert eyes.
But when Lin Yi woke up, these people once again walked very slowly and slowly dispersed.
"Hello." Xu Shunkang said, drinking alone a group of classmates.
All the students turned around slowly and uniformly, their movements as stiff as puppets.
A militant smile appeared on the corner of Xu Shunkang's mouth. He rolled up the book "Mountains, Seas and Green War" and held it in his hand. He pointed it at the group of people like a sharp blade and said:
"I have already written it down. None of you can escape."
This group of students looked at Xu Shunkang coldly, as if they wanted to imprint Xu Shunkang's appearance in their eyes.
"Physical student, please mind your own business." One of the classmates said in a cold tone, "Go back to the gymnasium and stink!"
"Stand out of our affairs! Take care of yourself!"
"Hehehehe..." Xu Shunkang smiled solemnly, "We'll see."
The group of people did not respond to Xu Shunkang's words. They just turned around and walked slowly back to their seats.
Looking at the scattered classmates and their stiff backs, Lin Yi was a little puzzled as to how they could approach so quietly when they were on the verge of death.
Or... the problem lies with you?
Xu Shunkang looked at Lin Yi and naturally knew that Lin Yi had fallen into a sleep-like state because of thinking about the problem.
So he warned seriously: "It seems that you really didn't listen to what I just said... Listen, Lin Yi, I'm warning you very seriously, please stop thinking about some messy things!"
"The things in this school are not something you can understand!"
"If you insist on trying to understand it with your little brain..." Xu Shunkang pointed to the group of classmates who retreated back to their seats and looked at them directly, "They will be your role models!"
"I..." Lin Yi was also a little embarrassed and apologized first, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it and I don't know what happened just now... It feels like something is guiding me to think..."
"It's just, can't I even think about problems?" He asked a question.
He also recalled Tian Bufan's almost prophetic warning to him when they parted - keep thinking and don't trust others easily.
Compared to Xu Shunkang, he definitely trusts Tian Bufan unconditionally.
Xu Shunkang narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then warned: "This campus does not need people who think about problems. Don't think too much, let alone try to understand what you can't understand..."
Every place has its secrets, but once you know the secret, you become part of the secret. "Once you become part of the secret, you can no longer escape."
