This Damned Thirst for Survival

After the five-day break, everyone took the bus to the venue for the second stage of the competition.

It was still the destination in the afternoon, and the destination was a boarding school named Changqing High School, which happened to be one of the ten schools that Jiang Luo and the others sorted out.

When Jiang Luo saw this school, he remembered the information he had memorized before.

Changqing High School was originally a key high school in the city. It is located in a remote area with old and dilapidated facilities, but its enrollment rate is impressive. In 2012, the Education Bureau allocated funds. After the expansion, Changqing High School was divided into a new campus and an old campus. The students studying in the new campus are senior one and senior two students, and the old campus is for senior three and senior senior repeat students. Because the old campus is more remote and clean, It can provide candidates with a quiet learning environment.

It was just an ordinary expansion, but there was an accident—a girl in the third year of high school disappeared during the expansion.

Changqing High School is a boarding school, and students can only go home once a month. The students disappeared during the school period. This incident caused a lot of trouble at the time, and in the next three months, several people went missing one after another. Two girls, two workers at the expansion site died unexpectedly, and Changqing High School was completely removed from the key middle schools.

However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and there are still many students and parents who do not believe in evil, and are secretly happy that Changqing High School has lowered the score line. Therefore, the number of students in Changqing High School is no less than that of other key high schools.

But this year, another accident happened in Changqing High School.

The staff member held a loudspeaker at the front and said: "The second level of the competition will last for three days. Within three days, everyone has to find the girl who disappeared in 2012, the reason for the worker's death, and what happened that year. What's the matter, after this competition is over, we will select 30 people from the best according to your answers to enter the next level. The dormitory you arranged is in the old campus, and the students from the old campus have moved to the new campus. The game will also be broadcast live, before the game starts, please sign a death waiver agreement with us—”

"30 people?!"

"I rely on... is this directly eliminating 100 people?"

"The probability is four to one, why is this level so ruthless!"

The discussion exploded and suddenly covered the voices of the staff.

Jiang Luo clicked his tongue, "The exemption agreement is so serious?"

Zhuo Zhongqiu comforted everyone calmly, "Don't worry, my father was elected as a judge this year. I called him before the competition and asked him to take care of us. No matter how dangerous this level is, we are sure to be safe."

Ge Zhu sighed, "Following Sister Zhuo gives me a sense of security."

Zhuo Zhongqiu hooked his lips handsomely, "It's a small matter."

After hearing her words, the students of class 01 of Baihua University who were already prepared felt more at ease, and frankly signed the death waiver agreement, and followed the staff to the dormitory.

The dormitory in the old campus is a four-person room, with two bunk beds and four desks together. The room of about ten square meters is extremely crowded.As soon as I walked into the dormitory, I was greeted with a damp smell.

The smell seemed to be the garbage that had been piled up for a long time, and it was also like the stench in the sewer. The man covered his nose and sighed, "It looks like a boys' dormitory."

"Of course it's the boys' dormitory," said the front staff with a smile. "It's an old campus, and the sewers are often broken. Please bear with us."

"You can bear it." Lu Yi pointed at Zhuo Zhongqiu suspiciously, "Why did she come in a woman in our boys' dormitory?"

The smile of the staff remained the same, "Maybe I made a mistake when arranging the dormitory, but it's okay, there is no difference between boys and girls, student Zhuo can come to the bathroom of the teaching staff on the first floor to take a shower and go to the toilet."

A boy shouted from behind: "Then we can't walk shirtless?"

"You can take it off as you like," Zhuo Zhongqiu said lazily, "Brother, I like beautiful and soft girls. You have no breasts and two taels of flesh, so don't think too much about it." many."

Boom laughter sounded.

Every time the staff went to a dormitory, they would call names according to the list. When they arrived at the last dormitory on the sixth floor, the staff said: "Jiang Luo, Zhuo Zhongqiu, Bai Yefeng, Xu Yan."

Jiang Luo looked sideways, just in time to see Bai Yefeng leading a person in front of him with a smile on his face.

"What a coincidence," Bai Yefeng looked at the black-haired young man with a smile, "We are actually a dormitory."

That eerily familiar feeling came again.

Jiang Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, "Yeah, I didn't expect such a coincidence either."

There are two people from Baihua University and two people from Shanhai University in this dormitory. It can't be described as "clever".

The staff took them to the dormitory and left. The four of them stood at the door for a while. The person named Xu Yan who was brought over by Bai Yefeng looked at Jiang Luo vigilantly and hostilely. In his heart, he already regarded Jiang Luo as his number one enemy.

Zhuo Zhongqiu put his hand on Jiang Luo's shoulder, and the two walked into the dormitory together, "Choose a bed first."

The room on the sixth floor also smelled of sewers, but after living in it for a long time, it didn't smell anymore.

After several people finished packing their things, Jiang Luo and Zhuo Zhongqiu left the dormitory.

Needless to say, they were almost in groups of two and were not prepared to talk much to each other.

In this competition, not all people from the same school are competitors with each other, only a fraction of the 130 people can enter the next level, and everyone is very defensive against everyone.

People from Baihua University gathered in the open space in front of the dormitory. Kuangzheng and Wen Renlian shared a dormitory, Lu Yi and Ye Xun shared a dormitory, and Ge Zhu and Seriol shared a dormitory. The four of them turned out to be in twos and one school.

"Is it room for four people?" Jiang Luo frowned, "The room for 4-5 people mentioned on the note doesn't mean the old campus dormitory?"

"It's very possible," Wen Renlian thought, "The direction of this article is too vague, and there is no matching information at present."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Luo, "Jiang Luo, did you see anything?"

Jiang Luo looked back at the dormitory building.

The sky is gloomy, the old dormitory building is gray and dilapidated, some walls have peeled off from the third and fourth floors, revealing the gray-white walls inside.

It's damp, dark, and depressing just looking at it.

"This place makes me feel very uncomfortable." Jiang Luo's eyes swept across the sixth floor, and stopped at the window of the dormitory at the end. There was a person standing by the window, looking down. Jiang Luo recognized that it was Bai Ye Feng, Jiang Luo continued to speak slowly: "I have felt this way since I entered the old campus."

Zhuo Zhongqiu was thoughtful, she was a body and soul cultivator, and she was much more sensitive to these things in the spiritual body than ordinary people, "Although I don't feel as strongly as you do, I still feel something is wrong."

The two looked at each other tacitly.

Jiang Luo unzipped his schoolbag, and took out a stack of talismans from inside, "Five talismans per person, is there more?"

A group of people were so moved that they burst into tears, wishing they could rush over and hug Jiang Luo and kiss them hard, "Jiang Luo, why are you so nice, woo woo woo."

"There are so many talismans prepared for us."

"You must write for a long time, huh huh?"

Jiang Luo said modestly: "Your safety is the most important thing."

He suddenly smiled, "After all, we can only get the first place if we unite as one."

After the brief gathering, the sky completely overcast.The big tree was half bent by the strong wind, and the clouds gathered, as if it was about to rain.

Ge Zhu looked up at the sky and said, "It will rain from tonight to six o'clock tomorrow morning, everyone go back to the dormitory first."

On the way back to the dormitory, there were still many contestants who didn't care about the rainy weather and went out to find clues.Most of these people are not sure that they can enter the next level, and their anxiety prevents them from wasting precious time.

Jiang Luo hadn't walked up the stairs as high as the sixth floor for a long time. Fortunately, he had been exercising uninterruptedly with Lu Yi this month, and he didn't feel too tired when he climbed up in one breath.

In the dormitory, Bai Yefeng was still there, but Xu Yan beside him was nowhere to be seen.

Bai Yefeng was sitting on a chair by the window, reading a book, when he saw Jiang Luo and Zhuo Zhongqiu coming in, he smiled and said, "Are you back?"

Zhuo Zhongqiu nodded to him, and asked curiously: "What are you looking at?"

Bai Yefeng closed the book. The title of the book was "Detailed Explanation of the Compass". He smiled and said, "I rarely read these basic books. It's quite interesting to read them once in a while."

Jiang Luo narrowed his eyes and glanced at him and the book, only to feel that the stench in the room was getting stronger and stronger, and he even felt that he was also infected with the stench.

"I'm going to take a shower."

Jiang Luo took out a bottle of shower gel and went into the bathroom of the dormitory.

The dormitory bathrooms in the old campus are not very good, but fortunately, they are very clean and there are no sundries.Jiang Luo treated his whole body with a bottle of shower gel, but when he was washing his hair, he suddenly smelled a rusty smell.

Jiang Luo opened his eyes, only to see that the hot water left from the top of his head had turned the color of blood, the water was gurgling, and the rust smell was getting stronger and stronger.

Jiang Luo: "...grass."

He shook his hand, took out a yellow talisman from his pants pocket, and stuck it on the water pipe. After a while, the rust smell disappeared, and the blood-like water became clear again.

Jiang Luo took a bath again expressionlessly, with the red liquid all over his head and face.

When he turned off the water and began to get dressed, someone knocked on the bathroom door, "Student Jiang Luo, have you finished washing? I want to take a bath too."

It's the white leaf wind.

Jiang Luo walked over to watch the door for him, and looked outside, Zhuo Zhongqiu was not there.

"She went to take a shower on the first floor," Bai Yefeng said with a smile, "Before I leave, let me tell you that she will be back soon."

Jiang Luo smiled kindly at him, "Thank you."

Walk back and continue getting dressed.

Bai Yefeng looked at him and smiled inexplicably, he gently closed the bathroom door and took off his short sleeves.

In the mirror, a fair and slender black-haired young man lowered his head and buttoned his trousers. Behind him, a more robust figure walked over slowly.

"Student Jiang Luo," Bai Yefeng looked at the mirror, "Did anything happen to you while you were taking a shower?"

Jiang Luo raised his head and looked at Bai Yefeng from the mirror. He raised his lips suddenly, showing a beautiful smile with tight flowers, and the red mole on the back of his hand was as fresh as drops of blood, "Why do you say that?"

Bai Yefeng pointed to the yellow talisman on the water pipe, "I don't remember this thing before."

"Oh, this," Jiang Luo raised his hand and took off the yellow talisman, stuffing it into his trouser pocket, "I have the habit of sticking talismans around when I take a shower, occupational disease, don't you mind?"

"No," Bai Yefeng smiled, "This habit is very safe."

Jiang Luo greeted him a few words, and after getting dressed, he was about to go out, but Bai Yefeng suddenly stretched out a hand to touch Jiang Luo's shoulder, and Jiang Luo reflexively grabbed his arm and gave him a hug. He fell over his shoulder, then pressed his knee against Bai Yefeng's neck fiercely, grasped Bai Yefeng's hands with both hands, his eyes were sharp and cold, like a sharp knife out of its sheath, "What do you want to do?"

Bai Yefeng was so ruthlessly restrained on the ground, but he didn't seem to feel the pain, instead he smiled softly, "No, it's nothing, I just want to say, student Jiang Luo, the collar of your back is turned out. "

Jiang Luo looked at him condescendingly, with wet hair hanging on his shoulders, part of the water was absorbed by the clothes, and part of it dripped on Bai Yefeng's chin.Bai Yefeng stopped laughing slowly, looked at him innocently, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Luo pulled his lips, stood up and pulled Bai Yefeng up, and patted Bai Yefeng's shoulder affectionately, "I'm sorry, classmate Bai, I don't like people patting my shoulder from behind, I'm really sorry for hurting you by mistake .”

Bai Yefeng smiled gently, "It's okay."

Jiang Luo showed him a thankful smile, turned and left the bathroom.When the bathroom door closed behind him, he suddenly remembered something and dug into his trouser pocket.

But he didn't get the talisman, only a handful of ashes.

Jiang Luo moved his fingers, turned around and looked at the bathroom door, the corners of his beautiful eyes were slightly raised, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

what.

He seems to have discovered a very interesting secret.
