Chapter 153 The fog comes like an avalanche
“No wonder it’s so familiar!”
“No wonder it’s so familiar!!”
“It’s actually a student passage!”
"The exit of the canteen is connected to the student passage?!"
When Lin Yi was shocked, he also thought of one thing -
Is this just like walking from the teaching building to the gymnasium? It seems that there are two points and one line in the distance, but actually there is another hidden path. A non-existent road, and there is a similar "non-existent road" at the exit of the canteen, taking them back to the path where the student passage is? !
Lin Yi was shocked as he walked down the steps in the thin mist and walked out of the student passage. When he looked back at the sign on the passage, it turned out to be the fucking [Student Passage]!
"Is it really a student passage? At present, this is the only way to explain it..."
Lin Yi's mind pops up with the "classic sayings of the canteen rules" ”——[Due to its location, the canteen can serve as a student passage for you to leave when necessary. 】
[Reason for location], [acting as a student channel].
"So the exit of the canteen leads to the student passage, and this is the "truth"?"
"What the hell..."
Although it is not very reasonable, Lin Qi Wei decided not to think too much about it for the time being, and just said "that's how it is" to get rid of the matter.
Having rich experience, he has decided that no matter what problems he has after dark, as long as they are not urgent, he will wait until he returns to the dormitory to discuss them.
At this time, he lowered his head and glanced at his watch. The time came to 17:33.
It took a total of 4 minutes from arriving at the canteen exit to leaving the student passage...
The time required to walk through the student passage from beginning to end ranges from 2 to 8 minutes.
The time is also very normal.
"emmmm..." After Lin Yi pondered for a while, he suddenly thought of something and first glanced at the western sky.
At 16:00, the setting sun, which was almost setting over the Western Mountains, was still struggling on the horizon. The afterglow, which was unclear whether it was a clear yellow or a blood red, reflected on the rolling mountains, like a person who was about to fall off a cliff. Kunku was lying on the edge of the cliff, kicking the mountain wall with both feet, muttering "I feel like I can still fucking save him."
Only a tiny edge of the sunset is still exposed on the horizon. Against the backdrop of the bloody sunset, the outlines of the mountains are clearly visible, as beautiful as silhouettes.
The cool breeze blew through the treetops filled with thick fog, bringing the fog out of the green forest belt bit by bit, and penetrated into it. The fog dyed with the afterglow of the sunset wandered like blood, It makes the mountains feel like there is killing after sunset.
“We have to go!” Lin Yi retracted his gaze and said solemnly.
The sun seems to have been holding on and refusing to set, but Lin Yi felt that the last trace of golden rim would not last long even if it tried to hold on. It is now 17:34, and the lights on the campus are turned on at 18:00. Once the sun sets, it is a dangerous area until the lights are turned on.
So they had two choices, one was to go back to the teaching building before the sun completely set, the other was to return to the cafeteria along the student passage, wait until the street lights came on, and then follow the street lights to the teaching building.
As soon as these two thoughts came to Lin Yi's mind, he immediately weighed them.
The time it takes to return from the cafeteria to the teaching building is generally between 15 and 20 minutes. If nothing unexpected happens, it can basically be done in 15 minutes.
The question is, can this sun with only a trace of gold left remain its remaining heat for another 15 minutes?
The second option seems very stable, but in fact it has greater hidden dangers.
Because theoretically, the current cafeteria is in the most dangerous state with lights out, and returning to the cafeteria is no different from committing suicide.
Of course, before they were sure whether the lighting in the cafeteria would be restored, they could actually choose not to go in - stay in the student passage where the incandescent lights were always on.
The problem with this is that although the incandescent lights in the student passage are still on, when the thick white fog that can obliterate the lights pours out of the student cafeteria and enters the student passage, Is there any safety at all here?
Also, the weather today is not very good. The year-round fog lingering in the forest deep in the mountainous area has been ready to move, and it has long been spreading out from the green forest belt.
Once the sun goes down, the white mist containing pollution will flow into the campus together with the mountain fog. It is very likely that the abnormal weather that happened when we entered the campus on May 6 will be repeated.
And what is the first rule when abnormal weather comes - go to the building closest to you at all costs, or stay under the bright street lights and wait for patrolling security guards.
But the nearest building is the canteen with the lights turned off, and the street lights haven't turned on yet.
Although Lin Yi was also in a state of [abnormal weather] + [no student ID card] on the day he entered the school, it is different from the past. At that time, they could forcibly anchor themselves on the cobblestone road, but Li Huiyuan's current state is too unstable - of course, although he feels that he is very stable, he is most likely in a state of "I think I am stable but in the eyes of others I am just a gas tank".
He is so self-aware now that he is even a little abnormally self-aware.
Thus, these two dead pilots together, once exposed to abnormal weather, they still don’t know what outrageous reactions they will have and what mishaps they will encounter.
Therefore, this second option, which looks very sound in theory, is simply a dead end in the current situation.
There was only one choice left for them - to return to the teaching building as quickly as possible.
This thinking process may seem like a lot of ideas, but it is actually completed within tens of seconds.
During this process, Lin Yi's movements did not stop, and he and Li Huiyuan kept checking each other to see if there was any ketchup on their bodies.
Fortunately, although they encountered several crises in the canteen, they were not stained with ketchup, which saved them a period of time to throw away their belongings in the employee aisle.
"Let's go back to the teaching building." Lin Yi lowered his voice.
"Well...ok!" Li Huiyuan nodded.
She didn't know what kind of evaluation Lin Yi had gone through, but Lin Yi's firm eyes were enough to convince everything at this time.
After putting the canteen rules back on the bookshelf next to the notice board, the two immediately walked along the cobblestone road towards the area where the teaching building is located.
……
X023 May 8, 17:43.
The cobblestone road is filled with a light layer of mist, which seems to be sprinkled with a layer of golden sand in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Lin Yi helped Li Huiyuan walk on the cobblestone road. The two of them were cooperating better and better, and were walking leisurely towards the teaching building.
Lin Yi counted the time silently, and the sun finally sank into the west at this moment.
When the sun completely sets, there is still a brilliant circle of sunset on the horizon, which is the last ashes of the sun's rays blooming in this day.
Lin Yi looked ahead, and the outline of the teaching building was clearly visible.
But as the ashes burned, Li Huiyuan's body temperature seemed to drop uncontrollably.
"Light." Lin Yi knew that light could dispel some pollution, and Li Huiyuan needed light at this moment.
“Keep the rhythm, keep paying attention, look at the pebbles under your feet, it’s just a few steps away, hold on!”
Lin Yi tried his best to keep his voice calm so as not to cause Li Huiyuan's emotional uproar.
Li Huiyuan nodded slightly and continued walking towards the teaching building with Lin Yi's support.
In fact, Lin Yi could hold or carry Li Huiyuan, just like when he was in the canteen, but the situation is different now.
There is no light now, and he must ensure that Li Huiyuan's attention is always online. Once he carries Li Huiyuan on his back or holds Li Huiyuan, the other party will easily have random thoughts.
In this limited 17 minutes without lights or sunlight, this journey is destined to be very long and difficult.
But in fact, if nothing else happens, their remaining journey should be about 5 to 8 minutes.
Well...if nothing else happens.
As night falls, the mist that originally seeped out of the green forest belt little by little began to pour out in large swaths, as if it was no longer pretentious.
It is as if there was originally a transparent dam at the edge of the green forest belt, but now it bursts, causing the fog that was originally blocked to be released, and poured into the campus like an avalanche. .
Lin Yi looked around in shock and found that the area in the cafeteria behind him was the first to be submerged in the fog.
He suddenly thought of something - the canteen was built on a low ground, and it was indeed one of the most vulnerable buildings to be submerged by fog!
And this was something he didn’t take into consideration when he was thinking about it before!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel scared, and at the same time, he felt a little happy about his consideration.
Although one condition was omitted when calculating this question earlier, fortunately, the omission of this condition only deducted a few points, and the final answer is still correct!
He just glanced at the surrounding environment and then retracted his gaze. Then, he unknowingly accelerated his pace at the teaching building in front of him.
As the fog thickened, he no longer dared to look into it.
Because he knew that there were phalanxes of sculptures all over the mountains and plains in the green forest belt. These things had been expelled by the sun and could only huddle in the green forest belt, but as night fell, they were very likely to regain their mobility. , and blend into the mist, walking in the campus.
The fog gradually became darker. The fog that was originally just floating on the cobblestone road like a layer of smoke had already covered Lin Yi's insteps.
Suddenly, Li Huiyuan's expression changed and she staggered.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yi turned to look at her.
"I..." Li Huiyuan frowned, "My feet seem to have regained consciousness... and... they seem to feel very powerful."
She tapped the ground with her toes and tried to move. ankle.
Obviously she should be happy to have regained consciousness, but her face was full of solemnity.
"Then let's go back to the teaching building first!" Lin Yi let go of Li Huiyuan, "Run over?"
"Well... okay."
"You run first, I'll be behind."
"Okay." Li Huiyuan took a deep breath and immediately started running.
But after just a few steps, her body staggered because she was not used to the sudden force on her right foot. Fortunately, Li Huiyuan immediately adjusted her center of gravity and slowed down a bit. Speed, and then ran much more steadily.
Looking at Li Huiyuan's back, Lin Yi took another look at the mist at his feet and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
"The power of pollution healed Li Huiyuan's feet?"
"Or...?"
He was not happy for Li Huiyuan, but felt a little bad, because the first thing that came to his mind was the humanoid spider-like chef in a green bib.
After the chef in the green bib was kicked in the face by Wei Liang, he slowly recovered in the mist.
And now they are walking in the mist...
If the mist containing pollution can heal the green bib chef, does that mean...Li Huiyuan is already Got some Green Bib Chef traits?
In other words, Li Huiyuan and the Green Bib Chef have certain characteristics in common...are they both polluters?
"But if that's the case... wouldn't my pollution be more serious?"
That's really strange...
Lin Yi didn't think much and hurried towards the teaching building Run.
This time is very awkward. The red clouds in the west have turned purple, and the moonlight is not bright enough under the night. There is only a dim light on the cobblestone road. The students who had dinner in the cafeteria earlier were already under the lights. He escaped from the cafeteria and returned to the teaching building when he escaped, so now this road looks deserted, with not even a single person in sight.
The cool evening breeze rolled up the mist and slapped it on the ankles like water drops. The cold air seemed to come alive and worked its way into the pants. The slightest coolness gave people the feeling of stepping on ice slag. .
Suddenly, a strong wind surged up in the mountains, causing the leaves all over the mountains and plains to make a "swishing" sound. The mist between the mountains and forests was like snow covering the treetops, and followed the leaves. The tremors violently shook off piece after piece.
"Rustling...Rustling..."
Densely dark shadows emerged from the green forest belt, and the neatly arranged square array of sculptures appeared in the moonlight. Down.
As the strong wind surged, the clouds merged in the night sky, and a huge dark cloud floated over from nowhere, like a quilt stained with water, covering it layer by layer. In the sky, the already dim moonlight was completely covered, making it airtight.
Darkness gradually enveloped the campus like a tide, and the fog spread unbridledly through the campus like an avalanche, flooding a large area in an instant.
Lin Yi watched as the forest-white mist gradually covered his ankles, spread up his calves, and then reached his knees in a short period of time. He gradually felt as if he was walking in a quagmire.
The cobblestones on the road are no longer visible at all. The only road signs now are the unlit street light poles and the outline of the teaching building in front.
Just as the thick fog rose, the outline of the teaching building gradually became blurred.
Looking from a distance, it looks like the top floor of a building has emerged from the sea of clouds.
Lin Yi ran "hum hum hum", but his physical strength was too much before, and now he couldn't speed up at all.
Seeing the outline of the teaching building becoming increasingly blurry, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
What made him even more anxious was that because the fog diluted his vision, the distance between him and the teaching building also became blurred.
