Metaphysics Reborn: My rules are rules

When the exam was about to start, the security guard standing at the door opened the door.

"Candidates should take their IDs and enter. Please wait aside, as the leading teacher."

Two security guards were guarding the door. After checking their IDs one by one, they allowed the students to enter the examination room.

The examination room for this competition was chosen on the campus of a new local university that had just been built and not yet put into use.

The campus is not very big, only about [-] acres. There are five consecutive teaching buildings after entering from the gate. Behind the teaching building is a flower bed, but there are no plants on the flower bed but three nozzles standing upright. Maybe To express welcome, the three nozzles were opened to form a fountain.

Behind the fountain is a three-story art building. The art building is built differently from an ordinary teaching building. The front is not boxy, but round and blunt. The door in the middle is slightly recessed. The building materials are not masonry. , but wood, painted all over

The order of the candidates was all messed up. Those from the same school were not necessarily in the same examination room. Ye Yuran looked at his position.

No. 24 in the fifth examination room.

This examination room is on the second floor of Teaching Building No. [-]. The location is easy to find.

Ye Yuran took the pencil case and walked towards the No. [-] teaching building.

But as she got closer to the teaching building, she felt more and more uneasy. A chill ran up from the soles of her feet, and even her shoulders began to feel a burning sensation.

what happened?

Ye Yuran breathed out and touched the nine-tail pattern on his shoulder.But now is not a good time to investigate, so we can only wait until the exam is over in the morning.

However, when Ye Yuran walked into the teaching building, the cool feeling disappeared.She breathed a sigh of relief and found her seat to sit down.

There were thirty candidates sitting in one examination room, and almost everyone had arrived.The invigilator also came very quickly, emphasized the rules of the examination room, and waited for the test bell to start.

Several short bells rang, and the invigilator opened the sealed bag and distributed the test papers.

After Ye Yuran got the test paper, she flipped it over and started to write. The difficulty this time was much more difficult than the questions given by Professor Luo Wen in school, but most of the questions were relatively easy for her, except for the last few finale questions. Let her think for a while.

Even so, Ye Yuran still finished all the questions within two hours. There was still half the time before the end. Ye Yuran checked it carefully and raised his hand to hand in the paper after confirming that there were no problems.

She still remembered the strange feeling and wanted to investigate it.

After the two invigilators looked at each other, one of them walked up to Ye Yuran. In order not to disturb the others, his voice was very low: "Are you sure you want to hand in the paper? You cannot modify the answers after handing in the paper."

Ye Yuran nodded: "OK."

After confirming that Ye Yuran really wanted to hand in the paper, the invigilator counted the things on Ye Yuran's desk. After confirming that they were correct, he motioned for Ye Yuran to leave through the back door.

In order to prevent others from entering by mistake and to protect the fairness and impartiality of the examination, the entire teaching building has been cordoned off. You are not allowed to stay after you come out, but you can still visit other places in the school.

Ye Yuran came out of the teaching building, and as soon as her feet stepped outside the yellow line, the coldness jumped up from the soles of her feet again, and she couldn't help but shiver.

The fountain on the flower bed was still spraying, and the water splashed on the ground.

This scene should have been beautiful, but Ye Yuran was stiff and couldn't feel any warmth.

Ye Yuran stood in front of the teaching building, looking at the art building. She took a slight breath and recited a mantra silently in her heart. A wisp of blue mist overflowed from the dark red wooden bracelet on her wrist and slowly wrapped around it. Ye Yuran's arm, and then slowly penetrated inside.

Her eyes were slightly hot, not as uncomfortable as the first time. Ye Yuran blinked and adjusted before looking towards the art building.

At just one glance, Ye Yuran couldn't help but frown. What she saw in front of her was no longer the original scenery, but large tracts of thick black fog. The art building was shrouded in this thick fog, making it impossible to see its original appearance.

However, the strange thing is that the thick fog is only concentrated in the Art Building, as if it is restrained and cannot spread outside.

Ye Yuran calmed down and walked towards the art building. She stepped up the steps and pushed the door tentatively.

"Squeak—" The door opened.

In an instant, the black mist became thicker, so thick that Ye Yuran couldn't see the buildings inside at all. She had no choice but to recite a spell to let the ghost return to the wooden bracelet first.

As the ghost dissipated, the thick fog in front of Ye Yuran slowly dissipated, revealing his original appearance.

The hall is empty, with only a few load-bearing columns standing out. The stairs are in the corner, and the handrails are made of smooth wood, exuding a faint fragrance.

Ye Yuran raised his head and saw the slightly arched ceiling. The art building had three floors, plus a rooftop, but the middle was hollow. Only corridors were built around it to form a circle. Ye Yuran walked upstairs. Go, she didn't stop in the middle and walked straight to the rooftop.

The structure of the rooftop is also different from the usual one. The ground is slightly raised, and the front end is much higher than the back end.

There are also various patterns painted on the ground, the most eye-catching one is the old man in the middle.

The old man has a leopard head, a tiger forehead, eyes and a beard, and he is dressed in a torn hat and blue cloth. He looks a bit scary.The old man wore a sword on his waist. It was actually a money sword made of red copper coins!

Who else could that old man be if he wasn't Zhong Kui?

Ye Yuran's face looked a little ugly. She slightly poked her head downstairs and saw that the three fountains were still active.

It was close to noon, the sun was just right, and the light fell on the golden ground, refracting the light.

The bright light stung Ye Yuran's eyes. She pressed her heart, which was beating wildly, and walked slowly downstairs.

She seems to know the weirdness of this building. The wood throughout the whole body is Liuzhou wood. This kind of wood is precious, smooth and not prone to insects and ants, but... this kind of wood is usually called longevity wood!Simply put, it is used to make coffins!

The construction of this art building is naturally different from ordinary buildings, because it is an enlarged version of a coffin!

I don't know if it was her imagination, but the art building was even colder at this time, which made her skin crawl.

The uneasiness in Ye Yuran's heart gradually spread. Without stopping for a moment, she accelerated downstairs and held on to the handrail with one hand. However, the handrail was slippery and she accidentally fell down!

Fortunately, Ye Yuran had already reached the last steps and was not injured.

She stood up, breathing heavily, and walked quickly to the door.

The moment she closed the door, a white figure came out from behind one of the load-bearing pillars, staring at the door with bloody eyes.

Ye Yuran stood at the door and took a breath before continuing to walk out.

It wasn't until she felt the sun was warming up again that Ye Yuran stopped and looked back.

The three fountains are still cheerful, and the golden building behind them is dazzling in the sun.

Ye Yuran opened his eyes slightly. The three fountains in front of the art building actually looked like three sticks of incense!That flower bed is not a flower bed, but a bed of incense!
