Chapter 6 Conjecture
"Since the end of the exam, you seem to be distracted a little more often." Shi Zhuqing brought a plate of cut apples and placed them in front of Chu Xiangyun, and the crisp sound of the plate touching the table attracted her attention.
Chu Xiangyun slowly shifted his gaze from the desktop to Shi Zhuqing's face, looking at her as if she was obviously very curious but insisted that Chu Xiangyun tell her first.
"Hmm......" Chu Xiangyun straightened up his waist slightly, Shi Zhuqing raised his heart, but saw her hesitate and fell back to the table again.
If it weren't for knowing Chu Xiangyun's character, Shizhu Halal felt that she was deliberately playing tricks on herself.
It seems that I can only speak first.
Shi Zhuqing sat beside her, pretending to speak casually, as if it was just an ordinary chat, "Are you still thinking about the details?" β
Chu Xiangyun nodded, took a toothpick and forked an apple piece and shook it above the sleeping chirp, and said, "I still feel that something is wrong." β
It had been a day since the end of the exam that day, and Chu Xiangyun had already told Shi Zhuqing all about his experience in the examination room.
The details were not a pleasant experience for Shi Zhuqing.
Even if it was just a fantasy, for Shi Zhuqing, it was the first time she had seen the sacrifice of others, and it was also the first time she had tasted the powerlessness of being alone.
She has always been proud, so she has been silent about this experience, but fortunately, Chu Xiangyun never asks about these things.
It's just that for her childhood sweetheart who is in trouble, she also has to lift her senses, take out a pen and paper and start to help analyze.
"I really owe you ......" Shi Zhuqing muttered and patted Chu Xiangyun's head stretched out like a puppy.
"First of all, the first possibility, and what I personally think is the biggest possibility, is that you think too much."
βPASSοΌβ Chu Xiangyun raised his hand.
I'm knocking!
Shi Zhuqing knocked Chu Xiangyun's head with a thousand gully seals extremely skillfully.
"Woo......" Chu Xiangyun covered his head and sat upright.
Shi Zhuqing continued to analyze unaffected: "According to what I checked on the Internet, the analysis of the exam content of Lingxiao Mansion in the past ten years, there has never been a precedent for Lingxiao Mansion's fantasy setting to be played by a real person. At the same time, it is almost impossible in terms of workload, do you know how many people take the exam every year? How many teachers are there in Lingxiao Mansion? β
"Can't you recruit volunteers to perform? If it were me, I would definitely participate. β
Shi Zhuqing glanced at the tweet who was holding the apple piece and trying to participate in the conversation, and retorted, "Then how do you guarantee that the volunteers will not leak the content of the exam?" And how do you ensure that all volunteers can play their role seriously? β
"Uh...... Soul Deed? Do training? β
Shi Zhuqing hugged his arms and raised his eyebrows to signal it to continue.
As he tweeted, he felt that his words were very unreasonable, so he couldn't help but whisper.
"You can imagine how much work it takes, right? If the people of Lingxiao Mansion have such idle work, it is better to do their campus road planning and see how many people get lost on the news every year. β
"Ahem."
Seeing that Shi Zhuqing inexplicably started her poisonous tongue again, Chu Xiangyun cleared her throat and reminded her to return to the subject soon.
ββ¦β¦ In short, it is impossible. Shi Zhuqing's words turned back to the topic, "Do you think he is very different from others, it may be that the examiner has spent a lot of thought on design, or the hardware facilities have been upgraded this year, and it is normal for the spiritual weapons in the examination room to be updated for so many years." β
Chu Xiangyun wilted, and couldn't see her like this, so he jumped in front of Shi Zhuqing and asked, "Isn't this just the first possibility?" Since there is a possibility of the first one, there is a second one, right? β
"The second one may ......" Shi Zhuqing frowned slightly, and lowered his voice, "This is my personal guess, just a guess." β
Shi Zhuqing's eyes seemed to appear in front of him again, the desert and the blood-stained paper, and the person who hurt himself mercilessly.
"I doubt it...... He's not human. β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β
"Zhuqing, do you want to go to the hospital?" Chirp stretched out her little short hand and tried to measure the temperature of her forehead.
Shi Zhu had a black face, and mercilessly pressed the Thousand Gully Seal on it to make it quiet.
Then she looked at Chu Xiangyun and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was contemplating with her face up.
She knew that if it was Chu Xiangyun, she would definitely believe her words.
Chu Xiangyun has been like this since she was a child, she always believes in what she trusts, no matter how bizarre it is, she will think about the possibilities.
This is her shortcoming, but also her strength.
Shi Zhuqing continued to add: "At the end of the exam, I saw him take out a piece of paper from his body, I have never heard of such a thing. β
"Space-related spiritual methods have always been one of the important research topics in major universities, but I have never heard of anyone actually studying the results. Spiritual weapons such as mustard seeds, rings, Sumeru rings, etc., are just a gimmick, everyone knows that things are just thrown in and compressed, and they can't let go of big or too hard things, and it's almost enough to decorate clothes and food, it's really chicken ribs. β
"Not to mention the space spell that acts on people, like the fallacy, even if it is just a piece of paper, it is unimaginable."
"Are you sure it's not a spell on his clothes?" Chirp asked.
"I'm sure." Shi Zhuqing suddenly felt a little ashamed when he said this, "cough...... I was watching while he was taking something, and he slapped it to the heart, and I thought he was going to kill himself, but it turned out that he only took out the paper because he broke his clothes......"
ββ¦β¦β
"I think I can report him for playing hooligan in front of minors." Chirped and nodded solemnly, and then ushered in the fate of being pressed under the seal of a thousand gullies.
"I think ......" Chu Xiangyun finally spoke, attracting the attention of one man and one beast, "I think he is human." β
Jiu Jiu glanced at Shi Zhuqing with some smugness, but saw that she was staring at Chu Xiangyun, listening carefully to her words.
Sure enough, Chu Xiangyun continued.
"But it's not just people."
ββ¦β¦ SchrΓΆdinger's man? Chirp couldn't help but complain.
Note: It is rumored that there was a scholar named SchrΓΆdinger, who put a cat beast into the space spirit weapon he developed to observe the state in order to study space magic, but the spirit weapon could not be opened again due to problems, and we still don't know whether the cat beast is dead or alive.
Shi Zhuqing ignored it this time, followed Chu Xiangyun's train of thought, and his words hit the nail on the head, "Do you think he has fused with a spatial spirit weapon?" β
"A half-finished space spirit weapon." Chu Xiangyun added.
Shi Zhuqing turned the pen in his hand and suddenly changed the subject, "I can't read the content of that piece of paper clearly." It was obviously stained with blood, but the paper was intact, but it was completely unreadable what was written on it. β
Chu Xiangyun didn't speak, she knew that Shi Zhuqing was just talking to herself at this time, and sometimes she was like this when she was deep thinking.
Shi Zhuqing spoke faster, "This is a thing that cannot be talked to people. β
"Is it a letter? Is it a list? It'sβ"
"Drawings."
Seeing the absurd appearance, no one can say that he will be a spy or a soldier, but if he is a scholar, I am afraid that no one will object.
"A scholar who studies space artifacts ......"
Chirp was infected by the serious atmosphere at this time, and followed their train of thought and asked, "Why is a scholar hunted down?" β
"It's because you're a scholar that you're hunted down." Shi Zhuqing sneered, as if he had thought of something, and was a little thoughtful for a while.
ββ¦β¦ Forget it, a little fool like you wouldn't know about such an adult. Shi Zhuqing turned his head to look at Chu Xiangyun, who was still pondering, "I think this is the reason why he is so different from others." β
Seeing that Chu Xiangyun was still a little puzzled, Shi Zhuqing compromised and said: "The admission letter should be sent next Monday, and then I will accompany you to ask my uncle what he should know." β
"Okay, I'm thirsty and pour a glass of water." After solving a puzzle, Shi Zhuqing was very happy and left briskly.
Jiu Jiu immediately grabbed the hem of her clothes and ran up, "Take me and take me, I'm thirsty too!" β
In the end, only Chu Xiangyun was left in contemplation.
It was a long time before she spoke out in confusion.
"So...... Why are scholars hunted down? β
*
A week passed in a flash, and not surprisingly, Chu Xiangyun and Shi Zhuqing both received an admission letter from Lingxiao Mansion, accompanied by a bracelet and the recipient's student card.
After receiving the letter, the two of them only glanced at the contents in a hurry, and one began to explore how to use the bracelet, while the other stared at the student card and had fun, leaving only a star flying squirrel to nod with satisfaction when looking at the notice.
After a while, Shi Zhuqing figured out how to use the bracelet, "It seems that the student bracelet of Lingxiao Mansion is no different from the one currently popular on the market, the keys are almost the same, and it is not difficult to use." β
"Xiangyun, I've already set up your account for you, and at the same time, the contact information of the two of us has also been added, I'll tell you a few commonly used keys later, don't press them except for these keys."
Chu Xiangyun put down the student card and nodded obediently, she knew that Shi Zhuqing's mind must have flashed a lot of past events at this time, in order not to touch her moldy head, even if there were a thousand words in her heart, she would definitely not be able to refute it.
Speaking of this, I have to mention Chu Xiangyun's brilliant achievements in the past. She's not an appliance killer, but she's pretty good at digging into ...... The function settings that the maker itself may have forgotten.
For example, setting the machine language to a strange foreign language is a routine operation, or it is common to cancel your account inexplicably, and you don't know what key you pressed to automatically call the police, and suddenly send a symbol of gibberish to all the crowd...... And so on and so forth, in the nearly ten years that the two of them have known each other, these things have abounded.
Even for the sake of safety, so far Chu Xiangyun has used the baby version of the bracelet, which is the kind that limits many functions that cannot be used.
In fact, she herself has little interest in social software or entertainment tools, but for some reason any electronic tools become unrecognizable in her hands.
Shi Zhuqing swept her around with a suspicious gaze, thinking that Lingxiao Mansion was in a lonely place, and the bracelet was the only communication tool they could use at the moment, so he had to temporarily put away the worries in his heart.
Looking at Chu Xiangyun's obedient face, she softened her tone and said, "It's not that you won't be allowed to use it, but if you want to press other keys, remember to ask me or others first, don't press it yourself." I heard that the cost of this bracelet is quite expensive, and I want to replace it with a new one if I damage it for no reason. β
Seeing that she didn't seem to be angry, Chu Xiangyun nodded indiscriminately, and then picked up the student card and started playing.
This guy ...... I've always been very good at observing words and feelings.
Shi Zhuqing gritted his teeth, thinking that he didn't care about the people who still used the baby bracelet.
She also picked up her student card and looked at it, it was no different from the one in the illusion of the Lingxiao Mansion entrance exam, after entering the spiritual power, the name of the holder would appear.
"Is there anything special about the student card?" Chirped to Chu Xiangyun's side, and the white beard trembled slightly as he spoke, sweeping Chu Xiangyun's skin with a slight itch.
Chu Xiangyun shook his head, "I'm just curious about its structure. β
Shi Zhuqing was not surprised by her answer, Chu Xiangyun has always shown special curiosity about these things that can be called "spirit weapons".
"If you're curious, remember to listen to the casting class later." Shi Zhuqing admonished, and then opened the newly obtained bracelet, and the light screen showed that she just operated it casually and the picture was projected onto the wall.
Chu Xiangyun glanced at her in admiration.
"......" Every time she can get such a look from her at such a time, Shi Zhuqing is also a little complicated.
"--The edited video of Lingxiao Mansion should also come out, let's take a look."
