Chapter 274 The notice in front of the gymnasium
The scratching sound on the outside of the wall has become much fainter, but the sound and frequency of the crashing waves are louder, and Yan Jingming feels that the opponent's target seems to be nearby!
At this moment, Lin Yi knew that the sound of the waves did not come from the waves, but from the Laughing Angel's attack on the outer wall of the stairwell!
·Sounds weird, since the form of the Laughing Angel is illusory, it should be easy to penetrate the wall and enter the stairwell, but it was knocked away!
Lin Yi took a deep look at the weak and swaying candlelight on the candlestick, and for the first time he deeply realized the value of the "extraordinary characteristics" contained in the "products left over from the old era" as Tian Bufan said.
Just like that, we walked up another flight of stairs, and at a corner where the candlelight was dim, suddenly -
"Boom-"
With a heavy blow, a yellow-brown stone was smashed into pieces. The Laughing Angel's arm, which was between illusion and reality, poked out from the broken stone like a whip, and grabbed Mao Feiyang like lightning!
"Not good!!!" Lin Yi's nerves jumped suddenly!
But Mao Feiyang seemed even weirder. At the moment when the stone shattered, he moved out of the way to avoid the stone out of conditioned reflex, and now he was two or three inches ahead of schedule!
As soon as he dodged, the art student next to him who had been making a lot of noise and had his mind scratched by Yan Qingming was in bad luck.
The Smiling Angel used the same technique to catch him twice, but this time he was not so lucky. He was directly grabbed by the Smiling Angel and pulled out from the crack in the wall!
The crack in the wall is not big, that is, the size of a yellow-brown stone, about half the size of a torso. Under normal circumstances, no one is allowed to pass through.
And this is also true.
Hence, when the art student was pulled out, his whole person was directly broken in half starting from the spine at the chest. The back of his head hit the tailbone, and because it was too stuck to get through, his head was separated from the torso, and then fell into the stairwell while spraying thick and warm liquid...
The art students who were hit by the impact let out sharp screams full of fear and panic. For a moment, the stairwell was in chaos. The closed space that was originally very orderly suddenly turned into a swarm of ants on a hot pot.
Just when the noise intensified, the rigorous and clear art students responsible for maintaining order all spoke up: "Quiet!!!"
"I'll say it one last time——"
< br/> "Quiet! Don't spread fear!!"
h But the sound of the video alone could not calm the frightened art students at all. Everyone seemed a little insane, speaking incoherently, and crying miserably.
A look of violence flashed across Yan Jingming's eyes. Seeing that the cracks in the wall were still there, and the strong sea breeze and terrifying storms kept invading through the cracks, making a whimpering roar, he finally took action!
I saw him jump over several steps and came to the art student who yelled the loudest and looked the most helpless nearby. Then he grabbed the latter's chest and without saying any words of comfort, directly carried the latter to the crack like a little chicken. Then - with a cold arc at the corner of his mouth, he stuffed it into the crack without mercy and used it as a material to fill the crack in the wall!
"Whoever dares to shout and get burned again will continue to fill this hole for me!"
Yuan Jinming's eyes were as cold as the cold moon in autumn as he glanced at the art students in the stairwell. The crying art students suddenly fell silent. Some of them who were still crying covered their mouths tightly for fear of being sacrificed by Yan Jinming.
"That's right!"
"Fear, just let yourself be afraid! Don't spread it and affect others!"
"I want you to die, don't hurt others!"
Strict and ruthless words made the temperature near the stairwell drop a lot.
"Xiao Mao, let's go!"
Shen Jingming patted Mao Feiyang's shoulder, his tone was frighteningly gentle, which made Mao Feiyang feel uncomfortable.
This rigorous and wise person who always speaks a wise brother is actually such a cold-blooded and ruthless person. What kind of person should Mu Daxian be who can impress him so much? !
Mao Feiyang suddenly realized that his understanding of Mu Daxian... was horribly little.
He seems to have underestimated an "extraordinary art student" who has experienced ten gray mist invasions... Too much!
While Mao Feiyang was shocked, Lin Yi noticed that the cracks in the wall where the art student had filled them had disappeared inadvertently, as if the wall had never been broken!
Furthermore, the art student was different from the one who was pulled out by the Laughing Angel at the beginning. The one who was pulled out before had the viscous liquid sprayed around like a showerhead, but the art student who was filled in didn't seem to have even a drop of blood seeping out!
Not to mention that no one can see it now.
"Wait! This should be an overwrite!"
Lin Yi reacted quickly!
When the wall was penetrated by the Smiling Angel, the fear that spread in the hearts of the art students would anchor the loopholes in the wall, but Yan Jingming used thunderous means to directly scare the monkeys, so that they did not dare to pay attention to the cracks anymore, and then used the overwriting ability of his veteran art students to overwrite the loopholes in the wall!
Because there are actually many art students in the stairwell, when the latest batch of art students left, the subsequent art students did not know that this problem had occurred in the stairwell, so the mutual understanding was invisibly replaced by rigorous overwriting, which anchored the integrity of the stairwell from a cognitive level.
This kind of thing is the most effective cognitive shield in the art building layer.
After the collision, it took a while for the candlelight to recover from its dim state. Not long after, Lin Yi felt an irresistible impact burst out of the candlelight, which shook him to the point where he felt like his steps were floating!
Almost with the next breath, Lin Yi felt that he had lost his awareness of Mao Feiyang's surroundings.
His ears could no longer hear the rushing wind in the dark and the sound of fingernails scraping against the wall, and his senses could no longer receive the dampness in the stairwell. Everything in front of him began to become illusory and double, as if he had taken off 3D glasses in a movie theater and began to become dislocated and blurred...
Soon, the yellow-brown walls gradually faded and turned into pure White walls...
His vision ended, and he knew that his "mind" had returned to the stairwell in the gymnasium...
As his vision recovered, Lin Yi's attention also returned here, but he immediately noticed something unusual, and saw...there was an old kerosene lamp hanging on the corner of the stairwell? !
The position of this old kerosene lamp exactly corresponds to the position of the candlestick in the stairwell of the Art Building!
Such a coincidence made Lin Yigong's mind confused for a moment. He felt like he was slaying a dragon in a dream, and when he woke up he found that the dragon was really killed...
He didn't remember that there was an old kerosene lamp here, or...he didn't notice it at first?
It was this old kerosene lamp that caused him to have the candlestick vision, and then connected it to Mao Feiyang's vision?
Lin Yi was not sure about this conjecture, but he did not dare to deny it.
He looked at this old kerosene lamp. Compared with the light of an incandescent lamp, it actually had no brilliance at all. But when he saw this old kerosene lamp, he felt an unprecedented sense of stability in his heart.
Lin Yi couldn't help but think, if all areas in the campus were replaced by old kerosene lamps, maybe the safety could be improved several levels, right?
But on second thought, the fuel in this old kerosene lamp may be some kind of unimaginable supernatural power. Apart from the gymnasium, there are no old kerosene lamps anywhere in the entire campus. Even in the cafeteria or the teaching building, there are no old kerosene lamps.
There are only security guards and dormitory managers, carrying old kerosene lamps in their hands.
Lin Yi thought of another thing. The energy efficiency of this old kerosene lamp is directly proportional to its pollution capacity. It is unknown what will happen if it is really popularized.
"Hey wait a minute... The security guard and the dormitory manager are all holding old kerosene lamps in their hands..."
"The security guard, the dormitory manager, the old kerosene lamp..."
Lin Yi gradually narrowed his eyes.
The physical education teacher seemed to have the same iron chain as the security guard...
He didn’t dare to open his eyes just now, but the sound of the iron chain was undoubtedly the same.
Then, old kerosene lamps of the same model as the security guards were hung in some areas of the gymnasium...
So...
"Could the physical education teacher turn into a security guard under certain circumstances?!"
Leaving aside the "software", the only difference between the physical education teacher and the security guard in terms of "hardware" seems to be...an old kerosene lamp?
Wait...
“When the physical education teacher passed by me, there was a warm current...I couldn’t sense anything when he was dealing with the angel sculpture. It seemed as if he had some kind of realm..."
, Or will it be transformed into a security guard at some point? "
"It is very likely that there is a path of mutual transformation between the physical education teacher and the security guard!"
He gradually began to confirm this conjecture. Of course, the evidence was still far behind.
"But then again..."
Lin Yi looked at the old kerosene lamp. He didn't know why. He had seen the old kerosene lamp several times, and it wasn't even far away. But this time, when he looked at the old kerosene lamp at the corner of the stairs, he felt a sense of déjà vu without any warning.
He couldn't tell what kind of strange and familiar feeling it was. To put it simply, he seemed to have felt the same charm as this old kerosene lamp from somewhere else...
And, he could be very clear that this was not the kind of old kerosene lamp that came from the hands of security guards or boarders!
There is a difference, but the difference cannot be found.
Just like ordinary people seeing two similar paintings, they cannot see the real difference without comparing all the details together, but even without comparing, they can intuitively feel some subtle differences.
He racked his brains and thought about it, but he couldn't remember where this feeling came from.
"It's strange... I've only been in school for a few days, how come I feel like this?"
Lin Yi couldn't help but pull his hair. He always felt that something was flickering in his mind, like an unstable white flash signal jumping on the screen of a detector, but he couldn't capture any trace of that picture.
"Hey..."
After pondering to no avail, Lin Yi reluctantly withdrew his gaze and walked along the stairs to the second floor.
The design of the second floor of the gymnasium is very similar to that of a shopping mall. It is a suspended floor with a large space left in the middle. The design of the basketball court on the first floor can be directly observed.
After Lin Yi arrived on the second floor, he glanced at the first floor along the handrail and couldn't help feeling that this floor was quite high.
He walked up and walked. After passing the corner, he arrived at the door of the gymnasium in a few steps.
He noticed a notice posted in front of the gymnastics gym. After taking two steps closer, he was surprised to see the notice saying:
【Please go to the locker room to change clothes before entering the gymnastics gym. 】
【You can open the cabinet door by swiping your student ID card, but you can only wear the gymnastics uniform you got by swiping your student ID card. 】
【You can put the gymnastics clothes you changed into into the gymnastics clothes recycling bin before leaving, or you can wear gymnastics clothes for activities in the gym, but before leaving the gym, please make sure you have taken off your gymnastics clothes! 】
【The locker room is the only regular way to leave the gymnastics gym. 】
【When doing gymnastics training, it is best to be accompanied by a familiar classmate or sports student. 】
【Do not use the stairs and elevators inside the gymnasium. If other physical education students invite you, please determine whether they are your classmates. If not, please refuse. 】
【The lights in the gymnasium are always on 24 hours a day, and there will never be an area without lighting. If you see it, please inform the nearby physical education students or teachers as soon as possible. 】
【Do not go near unlit areas, even if you hear the call of someone you are familiar with coming from the area! 】
【After completing gymnastics training, you can take a shower before leaving, but try not to wash your hair. 】
【If you feel uncomfortable while taking a shower, please leave the bathroom and return to the gymnasium for gymnastics training until the discomfort disappears. If the discomfort does not disappear, please inform the accompanying or nearby sports student of the true situation. 】
【You can wash your hair with your eyes closed in the gymnasium, but if you do this, please inform the sports student in advance to ensure that he is by your side. During hair washing, do not open your eyes no matter if you feel any abnormality. Tell yourself that you are washing your hair in the bathing area. After washing and wiping your hair, check with the gym student to confirm the situation before opening your eyes. 】
The above is all the content on the notice in front of the gymnasium, and on the notice board, there is a Q-version little girl with a playful expression, holding a small sign with an arrow, poking at a passage behind the entrance.
Lin Yi recognized this at a glance as the boss in Q version cartoon form...
