#189 - The Strange Tree (500 more words!)
"Huff..."
"Swish, swish..."
As the "scene change" completed, Lin Yi's senses gradually recovered and quickly adapted to the surrounding environment. The intermittent conversations nearby immediately drew his attention.
"Calm down, Wei Sang."
Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat: "That's...Young Master Tian's voice?! Why is Young Master Tian talking to Wei Sang?"
He immediately looked towards the sound and saw two figures not far from the "Library-102" lamppost, namely Tian Bufan and Wei Shan.
At this moment, Wei Shan's brow was furrowed, his breathing was slightly heavy, and he was cautiously looking around, like a lit gas canister, emitting "hissing" sounds from his nose.
Tian Bufan, on the other hand, had his hand on his shoulder, soothing his emotions.
Wei Shan was a tall and strong, slightly chubby man, but he was still slightly less imposing than Tian Bufan, who was 1.9 meters tall and very strong.
"This place...is very strange, Young Master Tian. We'd better leave quickly," Wei Shan said through gritted teeth, in a low voice.
"I know. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you to come with me. Just hold on a little longer, it'll be over soon," Tian Bufan said calmly, then slowly walked towards the "Library-102" lamppost.
Lin Yi suddenly realized something and quickly observed the surrounding environment.
Beneath Tian Bufan and Wei Shan's feet was a mountain path paved with pebbles. On both sides of the path were a large number of irregularly arranged lampposts, winding and turning until they disappeared into a corner not far away.
Beyond the pebble road was moist and deep soil, covered with thick fallen leaves. Extending further out was a slope, sparsely growing with some shrubs and camphor trees. The vegetation became denser the deeper into the slope, eventually connecting to a lush green forest belt from a certain area.
The trees in the green forest belt were also quite particular. The outermost edge was some ordinary evergreen trees, gradually turning into some tall trees as they went inward. They rose from the ground, with lush branches and leaves. Looking up, there was a feeling of covering the sky and the sun, and even light could not penetrate this barrier composed of forest leaves.
Lin Yi's vision could only see the tall trees, and even that was very difficult.
A thick fog lingered in the green forest belt, as if dividing the depths of the mountains into another world.
The mountain wind blew, the leaves rustled, and the shadows of human-shaped sculpture formations were faintly revealed as the fog surged.
Lin Yi turned to look at the other side of the green forest belt, but this side...only had the "Library-102" lamppost. It wasn't that there was nothing ahead, but that the "Library-102" lamppost continued into a slightly sloping hillside, sparsely planted with some flowers, plants, and trees. A little further ahead was Teaching Building C.
Standing in front of the "Library-102" lamppost, Lin Yi had the feeling that a piss in the wind could splash a few drops on the wall of Teaching Building C.
He also looked at the sky. At this time, the streetlights had not yet turned on, and the sky was slightly dim. The sunset glow in the west was like fire, and the outline of the sun had been obscured by the peaks.
"Young Master Tian said he would return to the teaching building around 16:30, so he and Wei Shan should have gone to eat as soon as they met, and after eating...they came here?"
Wei Shan is really awesome, after losing his shoes in the morning, he actually wore one shoe for the whole day.
But just as he looked at Wei Shan again, a subconscious sense of horror suddenly made his hair stand on end. He didn't think of the reason at first, until the evening breeze blew from the forest, stirring the gray fog, exposing the appearance of those human-shaped sculptures in the green forest belt.
Lin Yi's gaze immediately fell on the human-shaped sculpture formation in the green forest belt directly behind Wei Shan. He saw that some of the human-shaped sculptures had actually left the formation and were approaching Wei Shan!
"This...?" Lin Yi was shocked, and finally understood where the creepy feeling came from!
These human-shaped sculptures were not purely static. They even had the ability to move under the sun, but...the speed was extremely slow.
Wei Shan also seemed to have a premonition, and constantly swept his vigilant eyes around.
But whenever he saw the green forest belt, those human-shaped sculptures would completely freeze, and the fog "coincidentally" covered them, which led to him not seeing anything in the end.
"Calm down, they can't get over here," Tian Bufan patiently observed the area between the "Library-102" lamppost and Teaching Building C, planted with sparse vegetation, his brow gradually furrowing.
Wei Shan breathed heavily, "Hoh, hoh, hoh," and said in a low voice, "If Old Lin hadn't refused, I would have brought my baseball bat!"
"Old Lin is also for safety's sake," Tian Bufan patiently comforted him.
"I understand, but I'm still upset," Wei Shan clenched his fists slightly.
Lin Yi was dumbfounded: "When did I not let Wei Shan bring a baseball bat? Why don't I have any impression?"
"Speaking of which, Wei Shan said he didn't bring a baseball bat when he first entered the school, but why don't I remember him having a baseball bat? That's strange..."
Wei Shan doesn't have any sports hobbies in their school, let alone a baseball bat, he doesn't even have a baseball, it's really weird...
"Don't think so much," Tian Bufan suddenly said, startling Lin Yi, who thought he was talking to himself.
But Tian Bufan continued, "Accompany me for a while longer. We need to return before sunset. I also want to see the scene of a night-walker turning into a non-human classmate with my own eyes."
Lin Yi's mind was a little confused. Tian Bufan's words seemed to be directed at Wei Shan, and also seemed to be...crossing reality and dreams to talk to him at this time.
"Could it be that Young Master Tian predicted that I could dream about him by dreaming about Maozi, so...directly gave me a cross-temporal message?!"
This is actually unreasonable, but with Tian Bufan's intelligence and calculation, it is both unreasonable and very reasonable.
Lin Yi then adjusted his emotions, and his vision could also move slowly with Tian Bufan...
To be honest, after watching for so long, he still couldn't see any problems, which made him anxious.
He knew that Tian Bufan would not deliberately mystify, there must be something hidden here, could it be...is there a problem with the layers?
He carefully pondered it. According to the discussion with Tian Bufan before going to bed, he knew that Young Master Tian at this time had not yet obtained clues related to Teaching Building D and the D Building corridor from him...
"Eh, wait!"
"That's right!"
Lin Yi slapped his forehead, exclaiming that he was a fucking idiot. Young Master Tian really didn't know! But I fucking know now!
Teaching Building D completely exists in the layer, with a clock tower and an appearance similar to a castle!
The only point worth studying is whether this castle-like building is the art building or the library!
But the art building is clearly located by the sea in the layer, and there is no sea on the teaching building side...wait, no sea...?
"Is there a sea or not?"
Lin Yi suddenly became tangled, because he also thought of a point.
A..."judgment condition" that made him unable to judge whether the layer of Teaching Building D overlapped with the library or the art building!
It is true that the art building is located by the sea, but...Teaching Building may not necessarily have a sea in the layer after falling!
The waves under the corridor bridge mist that emit the sound of waves...
The strange environment like waves under the steps of the teaching building...
It seems...it seems to be the same thing!
Looking at it this way, Teaching Building D seems to be a little bit like the art building!
Then if it is the library...you only need to go through the content discussed in the dormitory at night.
So the problem is that just adding a judgment condition makes what Teaching Building D is again become confusing.
And the fact that the "Library-102" lamppost stops at the back of Teaching Building C cannot be used as a decisive basis for determining that Teaching Building D is the library.
Because when the layers began to collapse, the campus areas began to twist and stretch. Who knew how much "space" would be opened up from underground?
Lin Yi understood. The only thing he could do now was to memorize.
Memorize everything here, even if it's just the surface, it's enough.
First, memorize all the appearances he could see and replicate them into "My World". In the future, once there are new discoveries, he can directly start the deduction.
Speaking of which, if Lin Yi had a character card, he would now mark two skills on the card.
One is called "My Vision", corresponding to the world with exposed image quality like opening the Eye of Heaven;
The other is called "My World", corresponding to the simulated world edited in his inner world by consuming mental power.
And these two magical abilities seem to be gradually awakening as his pollution deepens. Perhaps... this is the ability that appeared after he was polluted by extraordinary characteristics?
Emmm... To put it nicely, it affected his brain. To put it bluntly, it's... his brain short-circuited?
The corners of Lin Yi's mouth twitched twice, but when it comes to pollution or extraordinary characteristics, no one can say whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.
At this moment, Tian Bufan glanced at the western sky that was gradually being dyed purple-gray, and said calmly: "It's almost time, Wei Shan, let's go."
"Go!" Wei Shan didn't want to stay any longer. Tian Bufan's words hit the nail on the head.
The latest novels are available at 6_9_shu_ba! First!
So the two of them returned along the cobblestone mountain road, and Lin Yi also suddenly thought of something, and suddenly withdrew his attention from the area in front of the "Library - 102" lamppost and looked at the green belt behind Wei Shan.
He immediately saw the looming sculpture phalanx in the mist, and the humanoid sculpture that had been staring at Wei Shan.
At this moment, the humanoid sculpture had indeed twisted its neck a little, maintaining the posture of staring at Wei Shan with wide eyes, as if it couldn't wait to put Wei Shan into its eyes.
Just as Lin Yi was sweating for Wei Shan, a stone the size of a basketball suddenly drew a parabola from the air and hit the head of this humanoid sculpture squarely.
"Dong!"
"Crack... Bang!"
The head of the humanoid sculpture was instantly covered with cracks, and at the next moment, it exploded in place, directly shattering into countless small stones, rolling out of the green belt, and scattered to Lin Yi's "feet".
Subsequently, in the afterglow of the setting sun, it continued to evaporate green mist, and finally turned into white powder particles and completely dissipated.
Lin Yi opened his mouth slightly, turned his head and saw Wei Shan's rapid turning movement.
Tian Bufan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Lao Du told me that this will not kill them."
Wei Shan's lips slightly lifted: "I know, but I just feel uncomfortable and want to vent my anger. Besides, they don't know my identity information, so they can't take revenge."
"..."
At this time, the evening breeze in the forest was blowing, causing the mist to surge for a while. Lin Yi in the dream was in a peculiar VR perspective, without a body and unable to interfere, but he could truly feel the changes in the environment.
He seemed to be able to feel that there was a strange thing in the depths of the green belt, like water in a tank overflowing when it's full, slowly flowing towards the area where the campus is located.
He subconsciously narrowed his eyes and looked towards the depths of the green belt.
However, at this moment, his main field of vision suddenly detached from Tian Bufan, as if seamlessly switching to someone else's first perspective, and began to approach the green belt...
[Huff, huff, huff...]
He heard a rhythmic panting sound in his ears, and the picture in front of him was like a "cameraman" filming while running in the green belt with a camera on his shoulder, full of panting and bumpy movements.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
There was also the sound of stepping on fallen leaves and soft sandy soil under his feet.
[Huff, huff, huff...]
The "lens" continued to advance, and Lin Yi, as if he had been stuffed into that camera, began to sprint towards this sloping hillside.
Before Lin Yi could react to what was going on, he found that a thin mist began to fill between the forest leaves. This mist rolled down from the front like someone setting fire to the mountain, "huffing" like volcanic ash...
The "lens" paused briefly, and then, as if sensing something, suddenly turned his head.
"Swish!"
I saw a group of sculptures appearing behind, some of them were humanoid sculptures and some were broken sculptures, all scrambling to chase this "cameraman".
Lin Yi could feel that the "lens" was shaking obviously a few times, as if the "cameraman" was staggering backwards, and there was a series of [huff, huff, huff...] sounds in his ears.
The "lens" immediately readjusted to the front again, but this time the "cameraman" did not continue to climb the slope. It seemed that he was afraid of the thick fog like volcanic ash in front and in order to escape the sculpture group behind him, he quickly swayed left and right to observe, and then began to sprint towards a place where there was a faint light.
The "lens" jolted again, Lin Yi seemed to have entered a first-person game live broadcast screen, following the "lens" and constantly crossing the forest area, leaving only the "huffing" wind, the "swishing" sound of stepping on leaves, and the [huff, huff, huff...] panting sound.
Suddenly, the "lens" shook violently, and then, as if tripped by some old tree root, the "cameraman" fell down.
The "lens" went black, and immediately drilled out of the dead leaves. Lin Yi observed that a pair of hands appeared in the "lens". The "cameraman" was grabbing a tree trunk to climb up, while looking back.
The sculptures were like a tide not far from "him". The "lens" immediately turned back, but at this time, just like the "cameraman" saw the tree trunk beside him, Lin Yi's eyes also got a close-up of a tree trunk through the "lens".
At this moment, Lin Yi only felt that his heavenly spirit cover was lifted off, and the cold air was stirring his brain, making him lose his mind for a while.
He saw a big eyeball - growing on the tree trunk he was holding!
[Ah!!]
He heard the terrified scream of the "cameraman" in his ears, and the shaking "lens" followed with staggering steps backwards.
Lin Yi tried his best to let his attention cross the shaking "lens" and fall on the tree trunk, staring at the tree trunk, but he saw that there was not only one eyeball on the tree trunk, but... densely packed, covered with eyeballs!
But gradually, those eyeballs suddenly flowed slowly like distorted and viscous liquid patterns, and finally... all those big eyeballs disappeared, and a tree trunk appeared in front of Lin Yi, which looked ordinary, but exuded an unspeakable sense of weirdness.
This picture was taken by someone when they entered S University for investigation not long ago. It is one of the few image materials that can be circulated. Some processing has been done considering the san value problem.

Thank you to the book friends "Mingyu was Zhan Yong", "usjdnshhs", and "Shui Hanhan" for their rewards!!
Double monthly tickets at the end of the month, please vote for monthly tickets!!!
PS: Simply talk about the statement about the number of days of entering the school. Under normal circumstances, we say May 6th (the day of entering the school is the first day), but when Lin Yi is thinking, he will have a precise grasp of the concept of time, so he will use 18:00 as the precise dividing line of the day. Everyone doesn't need to care. From the reader's perspective, use May 8th (the 3rd day) to summarize it macroscopically. No matter what, calculating 7 days will not affect the reading of the plot, hehehe (raising eyebrows and smiling slyly)
