Chapter 15: The Strange Staircase
Walking out of the classroom, the fat man and I went straight to the next assessment site.
On the stairs in the middle of the floor, there was a sign that read, "Ghost Academy freshmen go downstairs to the second level assessment point", which the fat man saw early in the morning.
Walking down the stairs, a sign will appear at the corner of each staircase, and we don't know how many steps we have walked before we notice that something is wrong.
There is not much difference between this ghost village and the real world outside, which means that the facilities and buildings of Tiandao University will not be too strange. Let's take floors as an example, an ordinary teaching building can have several floors, and the highest five floors will break through the sky. But the fat man and I have looked at the signs no less than twenty times, but we have never made it to the end, which only proves that we have entered another test.
And this time the test is to see if we can walk down the stairs.
This time my spiritual eyes didn't work, I could see corpses and ghosts, but there was nothing I could do about this illusion like "ghosts hitting walls".
Sitting side by side on the steps of the stairs, I looked at the fat man, I was almost tired and stupid after running so many stairs, and I really didn't want to move anymore.
"Fatty, did you say that I shouldn't have dragged you to go to some university in Sichuan, if I had stayed at home, I wouldn't have encountered these troubles now. Alas, it's my brother who hurt you. ”
"Okay, Lao Yan, what are you talking about, how can anyone harm anyone in our brothers. Besides, it was my own choice to come to Sichuan to go to school, and I originally wanted to contribute to a harmonious socialist society, but now it's good. Ran over to contribute to this ghost village. The fat man said, stretched out his fist and slammed it on the staircase railing next to him, "Lao Yan, it's not me blowing with you, we can't get out now, but if we want to go out, I will immediately call my old man and ask him to lead the team to level this ghost place." ”
"Okay, you know, you, Mr. Shi Dalong, are the queen of the general. With a wave of your hand, several armed divisions are circling around your ass. You can close it wherever you want. ”
"Hey, Lao Yan, are you burying me, believe it or not, I'll call now!"
"Then you should call, I lost my phone when I was on the Ghoul Road. Aren't yours still there?"
"I ...... Damn, there's no cell phone signal!"
The fat man's depressed ass sat down again. Keep an eye on the number displayed on your phone. I was stunned for a while.
When I leaned over to see a series of family notes on the screen, I couldn't help but think of when I got my new phone a month ago. The scene of happily saving the mobile phone number of my parents.
"Fatty, are you homesick?"
"Well, what about you, Lao Yan?"
"I also want to go back, even if I can't go back, it would be nice to be able to call my family. If it weren't for these things, counting the time, we should have gone to school today, and we had to report safety to our families. But now ......"
"Well, don't say it, Lao Yan! As soon as you say this, I think of the boiled eggs my mother put in my suitcase. At the beginning, I was too troublesome to bring it, but now I can't eat if I want to, and our luggage is left on the bus from Chongqing. ”
"yes, my backpack was left on that broken car. Fatty, you said that we are here, but the things are left outside, can someone find this place according to our luggage?"
"I don't know. ”
"I don't know. ”
The fat man and I looked at each other, followed by a sigh.
However, as soon as this sigh fell, a voice suddenly followed behind him.
"What are you two doing here?"
This question was like thunder on the ground, and the fat man and I were so frightened that we jumped up and turned our heads to look over.
At some point, the door to the classroom facing the staircase on this floor had opened, and someone stood in front of the classroom door looking at me and the fat man with a confused expression.
Li ...... Li Su?!"
That's right, the person who suddenly appeared was the boy of the Li family who came here from the ghoul road with us, Li Su, the descendant of the corpse family. At such a depressing moment, to meet an acquaintance, not to mention how excited the fat man and I were, hurried closer and asked him what had happened.
It turned out that when he fell from the tent in the playground behind Tiandao University, this Li Su was taken to the Ghost Academy just like the two of us. At the beginning, when the fat man yelled at the sound transmission Gu to find someone, Li Su also heard it. It's just that this kid was annoyed, so he didn't contact us, but closed the "Trumpet Flower Corolla" of the Transsonic Gu and looked for a way out by himself.
When he finally found a way out of the classroom, he met the two of us as soon as he walked out.
I am a little unhappy with Li Su's behavior. Everyone comes here by car, at least when everything is unknown, we should communicate with each other to help. But he ignored us directly, how can he play happily in the future? Coupled with this kid's stubborn pestering Jinghan, I think he will be even more unhappy.
But putting aside the problem of "personal grievances", Li Su, as a descendant of a corpse chasing family, has no doubt about his ability to deal with strange incidents. And the most peculiar thing is that his method of dealing with problems has completely surpassed the limitations of traditional Taoist secret arts, and is combined with high-tech mobile phones.
Just like when Li Su took a picture of the ghost on the rocks with his mobile phone when he was on the ghoul road before, he just used his mobile phone camera function to photograph the ghost for the assessment of freshmen in the classroom, and kept chasing the ghost around the classroom. In fact, people like him have long been immune to ghosts and the like, but they only delayed for a while on the issue of turning off the lights, and only came out later than me and the fat man.
At this moment, facing the stairs that could not be walked to the end, Li Su once again showed his special skills, picked up his mobile phone and pressed the shutter on the long steps, and a slightly blurry photo took shape.
The three of us got together and took a closer look, and we noticed the difference between the stairs in the photo and the stairs seen with the naked eye. From the wall to the handrail, there are three different carpets on the more than a dozen steps, divided into three colors: red, blue, and green.
"What's going on, how can there be three different paths on the stairs?"
The fat man and I were amazed, and we all turned our heads to look at Li Su.
And this Li Su, who has always behaved very out of tune, is rarely serious at this moment.
"It's not three different paths, it's the same path that has been treated three times differently, and after being cast with a spell, it has become the most disgusting trick in the illusion 'ghost hitting the wall'. ”
"Which move?"
"!" (To be continued......)
