Chapter 142 Staring into the Void
Because there was no light for a long time, the green scar on her back began to become thicker and thicker, from the original thickness of a hair to the thickness of a black marker pen, and then like A green tear trail was as thick as a green tear...
Green mist began to diffuse from her wound, lingering around her like armor.
At this time, in Lin Yi's "deduction", she had a kind of artistic conception of "the cloud follows the dragon, the wind follows the tiger"...
However, this is not a good thing.
As the green mist penetrated, the tear-stained wound continued to expand, and this time, the green mist that filled the crack actually solidified, and began to change from floating mist to emerging. Green powder particles one after another...
This is a scene that makes people get goosebumps all over. Just thinking about it will make patients with trypophobia die on the spot. Lin Yi feels that he almost died Send him away in one scene.
After these green powder particles appeared, Li Huiyuan's body also began to undergo a horrific change. Her skin color began to turn gray-white at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her whole body seemed to be an ancient gray-white. The portrait and eyes began to lose their last luster...
Her steps up the steps became more and more jerky and stiff, and finally completely solidified, turning into a... pure white human form that maintained the posture of climbing the steps. sculpture.
At this time, the spiral Fibonacci steps were still below her, and the Fibonacci steps were still above her head, and she seemed to have become one of the endless steps. Lonely, small, an insignificant speck of dust...
The picture "deduced" in the mind was completely frozen at this moment, and then exploded into countless shattered fragments with a "boom".
“?!”
Lin Yi suddenly came back to his senses and looked down at the time.
15:14.
「One minute!」
"Only one minute has passed?!"
But the deduction in his mind seemed to follow Li Huiyuan for a long time!
He glanced at Li Huiyuan beside him, only to find that Li Huiyuan was also looking at him, and there was some doubt in his eyes: "Why are you looking at me like this all of a sudden?"
"Nothing." Lin Yi shook his head, thinking that the picture floating in his mind just now was too real, as if Li Huiyuan in a parallel universe had completed that move, and then he witnessed it with his own eyes in this layer Same.
“Is it because I inferred this scene that my brain imagined that scene based on my existing ‘cognition’?”
Lin Yi didn't know.
But after what happened just now, he suddenly remembered something - something that he had ignored for a long time.
Or...that basic operation that he almost forgot.
"Don't move around here, I'll come as soon as I go." Lin Yi turned around, looked at Li Huiyuan seriously, and said something that was too complicated.
As he spoke, he wanted to let go of Li Huiyuan's hand and walk into the stairwell, but Li Huiyuan held him back.
"It's okay, I'm already sure." Lin Yi comforted.
"I... take me." Li Huiyuan instead grabbed his hand tightly, like a stray cat afraid of being left behind.
Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, but you'd better keep your attention on me the whole time, and then tell me immediately if you feel confused."
"Okay." Li Huiyuan nodded heavily.
Lin Yi held Li Huiyuan with one hand, put the other hand into his trouser pocket, held the student ID card in his trouser pocket tightly, and then recited silently in his heart:
"I am Lin Yi, and my student number is X0230506098, I am walking from the first floor to the second floor in the stairwell of Building B of the teaching building..."
"I am Lin Yi..."
As expected, when he forcibly strengthened his will At that moment, the entire stairwell became extremely normal, and then, the two steps that were symmetrical to each other about the axis of the stairwell that were still seen in the distortion layer became only the one on the right hand side.
"It sure works! I fucking knew it!" Lin Yi was overjoyed.
I have played so many high-end games, always relying on my will to correct my cognition, and I almost forgot that there is such a simple and unpretentious basic operation.
Lin Yi walked up the stairs, then took Li Huiyuan's hand and walked slowly up against the wall on the right, until he reached the corner, and then walked the remaining half of the floor in the sunshine. We arrived at the second floor of Building B of the teaching building.
Looking at the architectural style, columns and corridor design outside the stairwell that was almost identical to the first floor, Lin Yi suddenly had a strange feeling - if he forgot the number of floors here, would it be possible? Into a horror story?
This thought immediately emerged, and was crushed by his punch before it could form. Then he took a deep breath and continued to recite silently in his heart:
"I am Lin Yi, and my student ID is X0230506098, I am walking from the second floor to the third floor in the stairwell of Building B of the teaching building..."
"I am Lin Yi..."
...
"I am Lin Yi, my student number is X0230506098, and I am walking from the third floor to the fourth floor in the stairwell of Building B Go upstairs..."
"I am Lin Yi..."
...
He followed the same method and reached the fourth floor of Building B of the teaching building in this way.
Of course, after reaching the fourth floor, the stairs also become the end point.
He squinted his eyes at the end of the stairwell, looked at the last step, and gradually squinted his eyes.
"Lin, classmate Lin..." Li Huiyuan here suddenly called his name with a trembling voice.
At the same time, he also felt Li Huiyuan subconsciously clenching his hand, and he could also feel that the other person's body was trembling slightly.
The slight tremor caused by the unknown fear was transmitted down his arm to his hand. At the same time, he could clearly feel the chill emanating from Li Huiyuan's palm.
Lin Yi wanted to pat her shoulder and tell her not to worry, but thinking that his other hand was holding his student ID card in his pocket, he gave up the move after a little hesitation.
"Don't worry, we'll go back to the first floor now."
Lin Yi tried to calm Li Huiyuan's emotions with a smooth and low voice, and Li Huiyuan said softly "Yeah" However, Lin Yi did not feel her relief. On the contrary, her hands clenched tighter.
Lin Yi quickly recited the "Protective Mantra" silently in his heart, and then started to rush towards the first floor with Li Huiyuan.
"I am Lin Yi, my student number is
He murmured to himself, giving himself the impression that he was reciting Taoist exorcisms and evil spirits...
Not long after, the two of them returned to the first floor smoothly. and walked out of the stairwell.
Lin Yi lowered his head and glanced at his watch.
15:27.
"Back and forth, it took 14 minutes... not bad."
Because he had to take Li Huiyuan with him, and Li Huiyuan had to focus on him body, so he had to slow down a bit. It only took 14 minutes to go back and forth, which can be called "smooth".
But was it actually really smooth?
When Lin Yi walked out of the stairs, the fine beads of sweat on his forehead were already shining with crystal light in the sun...
All this was just because of the look he took towards the end of the stairs when he was on the fourth floor of the teaching building.
When he arrived at the fourth floor of the teaching building, he originally thought about taking Li Huiyuan out of the stairwell, and then looking back to observe the environment on the fourth floor. But the moment he turned back, his intuition immediately Tell him - no, in fact, there is no need for intuition at all. When he arrived at the fourth floor of the teaching building and stopped silently reciting "I am Lin Yi..." in his heart, he could already clearly feel a feeling of being influenced by countless roots. The tingling sensation of wheat awns against my back.
It was a terrifying feeling as if he was being targeted by a pack of bloodthirsty rats. He could feel countless cold, evil, greedy, and bloodthirsty eyes staring at him somewhere behind him. .
At that moment, his vision once again entered the quality of a black and white photo exposure, and he saw the terrifying green mist spreading behind him.
He then squinted his eyes and glanced at the end of the stairs.
In the sealed, severed wall, he saw a stairway that snaked and twisted from the end of the staircase.
The stairwell formed by the steps was densely packed with countless nocturnal species. They huddled in the layer that could not be observed by the naked eye, and they were all squeezed to death in that seemingly In the narrow and claustrophobic corridor, all kinds of fleshy lines are twisted and intertwined, and the big bloodshot eyes are turning like crazy, as if staring at everyone who steps on the stairs...
When he was stared at by those twisted nocturnal species, he felt that the green mist mark on his chest suddenly became active, as if it was releasing some kind of signal.
He didn't dare to stay any longer, so he quickly pulled Li Huiyuan down the stairs.
When he reached the first floor of the teaching building, left the stairwell completely, and was exposed to the sun, the feeling of being stared at slowly subsided like a group of snakes wrapped around his legs. The earth receded...
His back was already soaked, and the palm that was holding his student ID card slowly loosened his grip...
"Li Huiyuan, we are back." Lin Yi took it out of his trouser pocket Putting his hand on Li Huiyuan's hand, he comforted her softly.
Feeling the warmth of the sun shining on her body and hearing Lin Yi's voice, Li Huiyuan's stiff body, which was tense due to nervousness and fear, slowly relaxed a little...
She calmed down, and then let go of Lin Yi's hand: "Thank you..."
"It's okay." Lin Yi said calmly.
"Well..."
"It's getting late. Let's go back to the classroom to meet Liangzi, and then go to the cafeteria for dinner..." Lin Yi added, "Well, I'll also help you find a canteen."
......
On May 8, 2023, at 15:32, Lin Yi brought Li Huiyuan back to the door of the classroom of Class 2, Group B.
After confirming that the house number was correct, Lin Yi pressed the door handle and pushed the door open with a click.
When he opened the door, he was suddenly startled. He actually heard some laughing and chatting sounds from the crack in the door.
Pushing open the door with Li Huiyuan, the two of them instantly attracted the attention of the newcomers in the classroom.
Lin Yi didn't mean to retreat at all. He looked back directly under the gaze of these people, and then frowned slightly.
"Another group of 'new students' have come here? Do they come every day? Are there really so many people signing up?"
Hearing Lin Yi's muttering, Li Huiyuan He was stunned for a moment, then looked up.
Looking at the laughing and chatting figures in the lecture theater today, she suddenly felt as if she had a dream like yesterday.
Lin Yi did not rush to find Wei Liang, but followed his habit and looked at everyone in the classroom first.
Except Wei Liang, there are currently 18 physical education students in the classroom, 24 experience students who entered the campus yesterday or before, and 7 new experience students.
Lin Yi frowned secretly and whispered to Li Huiyuan: "Another person who came in with you is missing. We were walking back from the bathroom and didn't meet him along the way. I It is estimated that he was killed..."
Li Huiyuan's body was shaken when he heard this, and his eyes were a little dim. Who would have thought that the "classmates" who came in together yesterday would suffer so many casualties in just one day.
And thinking that this might be her future, she couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Lin Yi didn't say anything else to her. He knew that Li Huiyuan would adjust her mood on her own.
Except for him and Wei Liang, there were originally 26 experience students in the classroom, but now there are only 24 without Li Huiyuan, which naturally means that something happened to one of them.
Looking at the physical education students, there were no casualties. There were 18 when we left last night, and there are still 18 now.
As for the seven new experience students, Lin Yi wanted to simply memorize their characteristics so that he could see who of them was dead and who was still alive tomorrow morning, but he immediately realized that there seemed to be some among them. Some "special" existence.
There are 7 experience students, 5 men and 2 women.
The reason why I say he is a man is because among the five people there is a very old man, who seems to be about 40 years old.
This man was wearing a khaki jacket, with neat and sleek hair, and a bulging mountaineering bag at his feet. He was huddled in his seat and looking at the entire classroom environment, with some fear and restraint in his eyes. His expression seemed...a little scared.
The four boys who came with him and two of them laughed and made fun of him, probably saying something like, "Uncle, you are still here to experience college life when you are old", and that one The embarrassment on the uncle's face became more and more intense, and in the end he had no choice but to shrink into his seat and hang the word "restricted" over his head.
In addition, the remaining two boys and two girls were attracted by Pan Jian’s female companion in the morning. They were crossing their arms and listening to the girl’s intermittent words with interest. Talking about the strange events I encountered yesterday, there was some curiosity and expectation in my eyes...
Pan Jian's female companion is actually in a trance. She received too much stimulation last night, and she has survived until now after "witnessing" Pan Jian's death. She has been unable to get out of the shadow of last night, so that now the whole People can't help but feel a little confused.
