Dagang thought that everyone's face was already covered with sadness. At this time, he asked us how we joined the Lin family.
I was about to answer aloud, but I felt the person next to me squeeze my hand gently.
"We followed Teacher Lin to the gym that day and stayed there until midnight. Unexpectedly, Teacher Lin reappeared at midnight, so he classified us as members of the Lin family."
Ren Jian, who usually kept silent, actually spoke out in defense at this moment.
What's more important is that he is so powerful that he doesn't even need to take these people seriously, but he can also deceive people.
At this moment, the novelty in my heart far outweighs the doubts.
It turns out that gods can also lie.
He looked at me: "You seem very happy?"
Only then did I realize that I had snickered out loud without realizing it. Fortunately, he didn't seem to be using his mind-reading skills on me.
I pinched his sleeve gently: "Yes."
Dagang took us to the small square where we first came to this world. He said there were activities at school today, so he came to the square first after class.
When we arrived at the square, we found that there were already many students here, but I noticed that all their clothes were prefixed with [Cao's].
A faint feeling of uneasiness gradually spread in my heart.
I was about to tell Dagang that I needed to go to the bathroom so that I could excuse myself and check out the situation.
Unexpectedly, it was too late.
Time accelerated in an instant, but while Dagang and I were talking, night suddenly fell, and then the big clock on the top of the bell tower rang the hour mark.
At that moment, I really realized what "time flies" means. The time on the clock seemed to be 18:00 sharp.
"Dang——" Several loud and ancient bells rang out from the bell tower, echoing melodiously over the square, just like what happened that day.
Then, several frightened birds flew behind the bell tower in the distance, flapping their wings as if they were escaping from some terrifying existence.
The teaching building in the distance where we just had class was now mixed in the dark night, like a deformed nightmare opening its mouth of fear to us.
Not only the teaching building, the gymnasium, the auditorium, the dormitories, but also the cafeteria seemed to have turned into ghosts in the darkness.
The night of the fifth day arrived as promised, and the school suddenly transformed into a living, man-eating monster.
There was a bright light under our feet, and gray-red light rose into the sky from the ground beneath our feet.
When I looked carefully, it seemed to be a pattern.
At this time, there was a commotion among the crowd around him. Unexpectedly, everyone around him knelt down one by one.
Ren Jian beside me frowned, and he held my hand tightly.
Among them, Dagang actually said to the empty darkness: "Sir, we offer you two descendants of the Lin family to ask for your mercy on us."
All the students who knelt down repeated the kneeling posture together and repeated: "Sir, please accept it."
Dagang kept his kneeling posture and raised his head: "Sir, we have gathered nine people. Do you think you can let us pass safely?"
There was no movement in the empty night sky, but the people who were kneeling seemed to have seen something, and immediately kowtowed repeatedly, muttering words of gratitude.
Seeing this, I quickly tightened Ren Jian's hand holding mine, and was about to lead him out of the crowd.
But the weird patterns that had been flowing under my feet were shining brightly at this moment. No matter how I walked, even though I had bypassed many people, I still ended up back to where I was.
Dagang on the side looked at him: "There is no need to waste your efforts. Master Fox Immortal's magic has been completed. Even if you have great supernatural powers, you will not be able to get out."
"Lord Fox Fairy?" I was startled and instantly remembered my mission - to find the Fox Fairy.
"Ha, I thought I would rely on you two as a stepping stone in the end, but I didn't expect that we would find Master Fox Fairy. Then you should contribute to us in advance!"
"You all said Lord Fox Fairy, then where is he? Why didn't I see him?"
"You are just ordinary people and sacrifices. How can you see the majestic face of Lord Fox Immortal?"
I raised my head, but just like before, I couldn't see anything.
Looking at the students kneeling on the ground all over the place, I had an idea and imitated them and sat down on the ground and began to kneel down and worship the empty night sky.
But still nothing can be seen.
I look at the people around me, what is the difference between me and them?
Ren Jian smiled when he saw me like this.
I looked at him strangely.
He said: "Can't find a clue? I have a very simple way. It's better to worship him than to worship me."
What Ren Jian said was indeed correct, and his words were not rude.
But considering what Ren said about his current situation, I dare not abuse his power.
Besides, I always have to rely on myself. I still want to try to see if I can find any clues on my own.
But soon, I felt that my body was becoming transparent.
I found that their hands seemed to be covering their chests. I stared at one person for a long time, but he kept kneeling on the ground.
Watching my body gradually become transparent, I became a little anxious.
Fortunately, the man suddenly stood up and bowed to heaven again.
Taking a closer look, it turned out that he was protecting the bag on his chest.
I quickly followed suit and covered my chest with my bag.
Unexpectedly, the transparency of my body stopped. I quickly covered it tightly, as if holding on to a life-saving straw.
I was wondering why I could be safe just by putting the bag on my chest.
Suddenly a rule jumped out of my mind.
[9. Students should strictly abide by the rules and regulations of time, work and rest discipline, practice self-denial and independence, and take school disciplines and rules to heart, otherwise violators will be punished. 】
The student code that records the school rules and regulations is currently placed in the bag. I hold the bag close to my chest, isn't it just to "keep the school rules in mind".
I quickly imitated them and bowed to the sky. This time, the light on the ground slowly died down, and even gradually seeped into the ground and disappeared.
When I stood up again, I looked up into the sky, and a snow-white figure appeared where there was nothing.
But just like the disappearing gray-red light, the snow-white figure also quickly disappeared.
I always feel that figure looks familiar.
But soon, the restlessness of the crowd around me brought my thoughts back to reality.
All the people who were kneeling on the ground just now have stood up. Now that their sacrifices to Lord Fox Fairy have escaped, how can these people just give up?
After the pattern on the ground disappeared, I took advantage of it.
If I don't run now, I won't wait until later.
I grabbed my hand and rushed out of the crowd, running somewhere.
Ren Jian's body seemed to be a protective shield. Anyone approaching him could not get within one meter of him. It was easy to rush out of the crowd with him.
Leaving the small square, I have escaped from the claws of people's hearts for the time being.
But looking at the ghostly darkness in front of me, as well as the grotesque canteens, teaching buildings, and gymnasiums in the darkness, I suddenly felt like I had just stepped out of a wolf's den and into a tiger's mouth.
"Stop! Don't even think about escaping!" Unexpectedly, Dagang and others were already chasing behind them.
I thought that Dagang's missions all mentioned the canteen, and based on the content and the previous scenes that happened in the canteen, I quickly picked up Ren Jian and ran towards the canteen.
The cafeteria may be the breakthrough point.
But when I came to the cafeteria, I found that the bamboo forest over there was lighting up with a faint light at this moment.
A small corner that is usually inconspicuous turns out to be a big deal.
Compared to the ghostly buildings next to it, I feel like this is more of an opportunity for survival.
The sound behind me gradually approached, and without hesitation, I immediately stepped into it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as we entered, the bamboo forest inside automatically separated to form a path.
We walked inside step by step, and soon passed through the bamboo forest.
There is a building in front of us at this moment.
But we have never seen it in school, or to be precise, we may have heard of it.
