Chapter 33: Can't find it
forecourt.
After night falls, the tile-roofed building where the school is located becomes more and more eerie.
It was so quiet all around, not even the chirping of insects was heard.
The three schools lined up in a row were all pitch black, like a black hole that could swallow everything, or like a devil's cave hiding endless demons, grinning secretly, waiting for something.
For a moment, there was a sound of extremely cautious and slight footsteps, and then disappeared suddenly.
The slender figure was reflected on the wall by the pale starlight. He remained motionless at first, holding his breath and concentrating for a moment. After confirming that no one was around, he quickly moved. The person turned around the corner of the room. On the corners of the swirling robe, there were exquisite embroideries and hidden runes.
.
Zhongkui Jingyi's expression was in a hurry, and she had already taken off the jade crown from her curly hair to prevent the tassels and beads from making any noise and exposing her whereabouts.
Although she was anxious in her heart, she forced herself to suppress her impatience and tried to slow down her pace.
After looking around and once again confirming that she was the only one here, she no longer hesitated and pushed open the door of the C-shaped Academy little by little, ensuring that it opened without making any sound. She quickly stepped inside and then closed the door behind her back.
It was pitch dark inside the school, and you couldn't see your fingers.
Zhong Kui Jingyi tried hard to recall the memories of the day's lectures, avoiding tables, chairs and other debris, and carefully walked to the podium.
She came here as a result of repeated thinking: There is no doubt that she must play the game of hide and seek, and she must not let those students catch her.
It's just that she is not familiar with this Xiwu School at all.
Even if you find a place to hide that you think is very hidden, there is still a possibility of being discovered.
But what those students said just now revealed that they didn't like going to class, and even hated the nature of the school. Therefore, hiding in this school, those students would not come in to look for it out of hatred for class.
After thinking about her plan quickly in her mind, Kui Jingyi quickly restrained all her aura and used her hands to move the spell. Just when she was about to cast a technique to hide her figure, she suddenly had a thought in her mind... It seemed that someone was following her.
I said, you can’t use magic in the school!
Although she couldn't remember who told her and why she couldn't do it, her deep instinct made her choose to follow it.
Thinking of this, she immediately stopped the spell in the middle of performing it, then took out a pale golden talisman from her storage bag and attached it to her body.
The talisman flashed a glimmer of light, and soon, Zhong Kui Jingyi's figure gradually disappeared from the darkness...
There is no one left in the C-shaped school.
After a while, the backyard started to get noisy.
The students of C-Zi School, with empty and strange eyes, scattered in twos and threes, looking for him in the entire school.
First, in the surrounding flowers and trees, the students roughly kicked open the branches and leaves, and checked them inch by inch. Any possible hiding place was repeatedly checked: "Master, you are here, I saw you..."
"Come out quickly, Master, you lose."
Then came the rockery: "Master, you are right there, I see you..."
Then came the house: "Master, we have all seen you..."
Erratic and cold voices sounded from every corner of Xiwu School.
...When they found Ji Changfu's residence, they ignored the students of Yizi Academy and Ji Changfu, kicked in the door, searched carefully, and then slammed the door and left.
Next, he inspected the waterside pavilion where Pei Ling lived, inside and out, and finally left disappointed.
Walking on the Jiuqu Long Bridge, a student had an idea and jumped into the swamp, dived to the bottom of the water, and groped through the mud in the entire pond to prevent Kui Jingyi from hiding in the water.
After a while, the entire backyard and everywhere were searched by the students, but no trace of the Master was found.
So they quickly poured into the front yard.
As soon as they stepped onto the corridor in front of the school, the students of C-Zi School showed disgust and looked a little irritable.
They avoided the three schools almost instinctively, refusing to even make eye contact with them, but rummaged through other places without missing an inch.
I have been searching for a long time, but I still can't find Zhong Kui Jingyi.
Seeing the time passing by and the dawn approaching, the students gradually became impatient.
Their originally empty expressions became ferocious and twisted.
Soon, all the students from Czi Academy gathered at the door of Zhongkui Jingyi's residence: "We didn't find it, have you found it?"
"No, what about you?"
"No..."
"Where are the others? They haven't been found?"
"without……"
"Think about it quickly, is there anything you haven't found yet?"
"I've searched everywhere I should look...but there's no trace at all."
"Then what should we do?!" a student shouted emotionally, "If we can't find the Master, won't we accomplish nothing tonight?!"
"If we can't find the Master, why should we chop off the Master's hands and feet, sprinkle them with honey, and throw them into a pile of worms?!"
"If we can't find the master, how can we hang her up and use the marksmanship she taught us to poke a thousand holes in her!?"
"If we can't find the Master, how can we bury the Master in the ground with only his head exposed, then make a hole in the head, pour mercury into it, leave the Master's skin in the soil, and squeeze out the bloody flesh?
!!”
"If we can't find the Master, how can we tie him up, boil a pot of hot water next to him, splash it on the Master, and use an iron brush to brush, brush, brush... brush the Master into thousands of threads
!?"
"If we can't find the Master, how can we..."
"Then why are we playing hide and seek?"
“This is no fun!!”
As all the students listened, they gradually became excited and shouted: "That's right! This is not fun at all!"
"Master, come out! If I can't find you, it won't be fun!"
"Master must have done it on purpose. They just want us to stay in the school every day and study. They don't want to see us play at all! They don't want us to have fun!"
"Damn Master!"
"Master, if you don't die, we will continue to attend classes tomorrow."
"I really hate days like this!!"
"Why do we have to go to class?!"
"It's all these damn masters..."
Amidst the noise, someone suddenly suggested loudly: "Since we can't find the Master and no one wants to go to class, why not burn down all the schools! Without a school, we don't have to go to class!"
"First burn the school, then burn the whole school and let all the teachers die!"
With that said, the students quickly left Zhongkui Jingyi's residence and strode into the front yard. They managed to bring in firewood, cloth and other items and placed them around the school. They also carried a bucket of oil and poured it on the door, and then lit it together.
These things...
Soon, C-Zi School began to burn brightly.
The temperature in the room was getting higher and higher, and soon the tables, chairs, floors, walls... were all on fire.
