Countdown to Yin Yang Classics

The person who had been trapped by the classroom test before, after finding out the role that shouldn't exist, the complicated and chaotic emotions in his heart finally began to settle down.

It seemed that the heart that had been running around for a long time finally felt a little sleepy.In addition, there is a trace of loneliness.

Cheng Yu didn't know why he felt this way until he came to the playground to save Wang Luo and saw Gu Shi who was taken away.

"It turns out that the reason why I feel lonely is because of him..."

Cheng Yu's call did not attract anyone's attention except himself.

He desperately wanted to run over, enter that building, and ask Gu Shi why he left everyone and himself?

But before this kick was taken, Wang Luo's voice was heard from the front.

When Cheng Yu chased after him, he remembered his grandmother's instruction: But please be sure to ignore everything you see on the road!Don't bother with anything!Never mind!

To the extent that grandma can remind him like this, unless it is true.

He looked back, and the building had disappeared, as if the Gu Shi he saw just now was just an imagination of his own.

But he firmly believed in his heart that it was not imagination, because it was too real.

Gu Shi's voice was very familiar to him.

Wang Luo's mental state is very bad.

When Cheng Yu came to him, he was already crying bitterly, making himself look like a mental patient, not only his hair was messed up, but even his clothes were dirty by him.There was panic in his eyes that couldn't be concealed, and his mouth was trembling and he was yelling incoherently, "Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" in his mouth.

Seeing Cheng Yu approaching him, he even fell to the ground and crawled forward.

Cheng Yu didn't know what he experienced during that time in the playground, but to the extent that it could drive a normal person crazy, in that playground, apart from those countless puppet machines, there were definitely secrets that he didn't know about. .

It's just that now, it's not the time, it's not the time to spend time and energy to explore that secret.

The most important thing right now is to bring Wang Luo back and find You Jia.

Finally, there is the question of Xu Yin and Gu Shi's whereabouts.

He wants to ask his grandma clearly, even though he understands that his grandma may not tell him.

"Wang Luo, don't be afraid. Look at me, look at me carefully, I'm Cheng Yu, I'm Cheng Yu." Cheng Yu bent down, trying to get close to Wang Luo.

Wang Luo suddenly stopped, turned to look at him, and smirked.

"You recognize me?" Cheng Yu happily helped him up.

But Wang Luo suddenly pushed him away: "...Ghosts, female ghosts, so many ghosts! Don't cry... It wasn't me, no! It wasn't me... Help me! Help me! Help me—" He replied again Pulling Cheng Yu, hiding behind Cheng Yu, staring around vigilantly and fearfully.

If this goes on like this, let alone rushing back, I'm afraid he and Wang Luo will have to confess in this fog that can't see the direction clearly.

Cheng Yu had no choice but to knock him out and carry Wang Luo back.

When he returned to the building of the Chinese Department, grandma was already waiting for him with other people.

Old K stepped forward and took Wang Luo from him.

"What happened to him?" Old K asked with concern.

Cheng Yu looked at his grandma, Xu Yin was no longer in the crowd: "... Teacher Xu, grandma, I..."

Grandma knew what he wanted to ask, but interrupted him: "You have your insistence, but I also have my insistence as a leader. This is a boundary that cannot be stepped on at will and authority that will be challenged wantonly, unless you have Like Gu Shi, you can enter any place on this campus at will, otherwise don't expect to get any intelligence and information from me in the future. Because... I don't want to disappear either."

Cheng Yu noticed that what grandma was talking about was not death, but disappearance.

When one dies, one bids farewell to the world, so what about disappearing?Disappearance doesn't have to be death, what would it be?

Grandma came to Old K, grabbed Wang Luo's arm that he was supporting, cut a cut from Wang Luo's arm, took a few drops of blood and put it in a porcelain bottle, and handed it to Cheng Yu.

"On the fifth floor, you only have 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, we will leave."

Cheng Yu took the porcelain bottle. Inside the transparent porcelain bottle, Wang Luo's bright red blood was still warm.

Before going in, he glanced at Xu Ting and found that the little girl was being protected by Huang Tai. He smiled reluctantly at Huang Tai, turned around, and walked in without looking back.

"When you find someone, remember to pour blood on her eyes!" Grandma reminded him from behind.

Cheng Yu turned his back and waved his hands.

When he reached the fifth floor, he searched one classroom after another in Chengyu. The quiet fifth floor and the old classrooms made him mistakenly think that many years had passed here.

Open any classroom at will, and the smell of dust will blow your face.

Cheng Yu took a book casually and blew the dust on it.

From the looks of it, it does seem like a long, long time has passed in this classroom.

He thought that there were only a few classrooms on the first floor, but this time, unexpectedly, there were many more classrooms.And the further back, the more stale the situation in the classroom made him feel.

The classroom has changed from single tables and chairs at the beginning to double tables and chairs, to wooden tables and chairs ten years ago, and finally to thread-bound printed books in the Republic of China. Although Cheng Yu was full of confusion, he continued to walk.

When he opened the door of the last classroom, there was a dilapidated boudoir inside.

When Cheng Yu entered, Youjia wore an ancient costume she got from somewhere, and smiled slightly at the only ancient bronze mirror, and then softly chanted: "I was born in the end of the world and my luck faded away." .Ching Ming tears sent to the river to look, a thousand miles of east wind, a dream away."【①】

"Youjia?" Cheng Yu called out tentatively.

However, Youjia continued to immerse herself in her own world as if she didn't hear it, facing the bronze mirror, and continued to repeat the sentence just now.

Cheng Yu remembered his grandmother's instructions, opened the porcelain bottle, faced You Jia, and poured the blood belonging to Wang Luo on her eyes.

The person who was singing was blindfolded by the sudden blood, and immediately fell down.

When Cheng Yu stepped forward and was about to help him up, You Jia opened his eyes, looked at him and said, "Why are you here?"

Cheng Yu simply explained: "I'm here to save you."

Youjia stood up, reached out to wipe off the blood around her eyes, and took off her costume.When he met Cheng Yu's eyes again, he had returned to normal.

She said, "What about the others?"

"...Oh, wait for us on the first floor." Cheng Yu replied.

"Let's go then."

The two went downstairs quickly.

The passage on the first floor was long and smelly, You Jia followed behind Cheng Yu.Halfway through, when everyone at the door was seen, a woman's cry came from the air.

Cheng Yu stopped and protected You Jia behind him.

The crying sound came and went, as if there was endless grievances in it, and Cheng Yu became more and more restless when he heard it.

Suddenly, something dripped on his forehead, a cold feeling.Cheng Yu reached out to touch it, but it didn't look like a drop of water.

A previous image suddenly flashed in my mind: the moment I looked up, there was a bloody mouth.

"Be careful, get out of the way---!!!"

Cheng Yu pushed You Jia to dodge.

The two fell to the ground, and Cheng Yu looked up again. It wasn't a bloody mouth, but an ordinary palace lantern with a blurry face printed on it.

The water on the ground is dripping from above.

Today, the blurred face will still drop one drop after another, falling on the ground, and there will be slight ripples.

The crying sound was getting closer, and Cheng Yu immediately became vigilant.

Youjia, who was behind him, pulled him away and shouted into the empty passage: "Is that you? Sister."

A gust of wind blew by, and the sound of crying seemed to be right next to my ears.

Cheng Yu looked at Youjia, saw her solemn face, knelt down and saluted in front of the empty passage, and then said: "For 20 years, we have been able to distinguish right from wrong, where durian flowers bloom to illuminate the palace. Three springs compete for the early spring scene, tigers and rabbits meet big dreams Return."【②】

The crying gradually faded away, and the blurred face on the palace lantern also slowly receded.

Youjia's words just now were repeated in the passage until they finally disappeared.

When the two returned to the gate, Wang Luo had already woken up.Seeing Yujia with a haggard face, he struggled directly from Old K's arms and rushed over.

The two hugged each other tightly.

"Let's go." Grandma said.

Cheng Yu turned his head and took one last look at the empty passage...

When she turned around again, she saw Xu Ting's face full of tears.

"It's the verdict. My aunt did it voluntarily..." Xu Ting said while crying.

Cheng Yu: "What?"

"That was Jia Yuanchun's verdict just now." Huang Tai explained.

On the way to the foreign language department, Cheng Yu once again saw the building he saw on the way.

There is a voice in his heart that drives him to get closer there.

Grandma saw that people stopped and did not move, and looked into the distance.

Following Cheng Yu's gaze, she reminded: "Don't think that you are very close to it when you see that building. In fact, what you see is just a projection, or a mirage."

Cheng Yu looked at grandma: "..."

"I know what you want to ask? But I can't tell you yet. Please calm down and follow me to the foreign language department, unless you act privately regardless of other people's safety."

The mouth opened, but the words were blocked back.

Cheng Yu sighed.

He lowered his eyes and continued to follow grandma aimlessly.

I don't know how long I walked in the mist, and there was a sound of a whistle in the distance.

Everyone took a few steps back warily.

A white convertible car that almost blended into the surrounding fog stopped in front of them, and a man in a blue jacket with a long knife got out of the car.

He bowed politely like a gentleman and said: "Number 521, hello, students, I am Lin Yang, the captain of the cleaning team of the administrative office of the main building."

Crowd: ...

So it suddenly appeared, what is it for!

Grandma glanced at the car behind him and said, "So you were the one who picked him up. I said why there is no trace of a fight left. Congratulations, you have been promoted to the captain of the cleaning team."

"I've already sent him back, so congratulations won't be used." Lin Yang turned around, dropped Gu Shi from the car, and walked away, disappearing into the white mist.

Grandma clenched her mechanical fist tightly and said fiercely: "What are you pulling! One day I will..."

"What's going on? Please help me." Cheng Yu and Old K stood up with Gu Shi in their arms.

Gu Shi was covered with injuries, his right eye was still bleeding, and his clothes were also torn.The hair was wet and the person passed out.Being supported by two people, like a rag doll, lifeless.

"We can't die, let's continue on our way." Grandma only took one look, then turned and continued walking.

On the contrary, Youjia leaned over to feel the pulse, looked at it carefully, and said, "It should have been through a battle just now, but passed out from exhaustion."

No one present knew exactly what Gu Shi had experienced.

The large and small wounds on his body are also worrying and confusing, but it didn't take long for these wounds to heal automatically under Cheng Yu's gaze.

"Let's go?" Grandma stopped and urged.

Cheng Yu looked at Gu Shi's pale handsome face, set his heart on his back, and said, "Let's go! Let's keep up."

On the way, the breath of the person on his back hit his ears, causing him to itch unbearably, blushing and heart beating.

The old K in the middle also proposed to change the back, fearing that he would be tired, but Cheng Yu refused.

When he first saw Gu Shi who was thrown from the car, he almost thought it was a dead person.But now feeling the beating heart on his back, his previously worried mood seemed to be a little better.

When Cheng Yu woke up again, they were in a gazebo.

The surrounding area is still surrounded by white mist, and things a few meters away cannot be seen clearly, nor can they be detected.

"You're awake." Huang Tai handed him a carrot, "Just fill your stomach. I heard from grandma, it's still a day's journey."

Cheng Yu looked at the carrot in front of him and thought of someone. "Gu Shi, where's Gu Shi?" Cheng Yu realized that Gu Shi was not by his side.

Huang Tai pointed to Old K, and said: "He woke up, and the wounds on his body disappeared. It sounds miraculous. But...we don't know what happened to him, anyway, it was when you were still asleep. , He woke up suddenly, and he was very hostile to all of us. At that time, there was a fight, but it was grandma who was wise and saw the double-edged knife pinned to your waist, so we escaped his severe beating."

"Double-edged knife? Beaten? He, what happened to him?" Cheng Yu got up, and finally saw someone who was blocked by the figure of Old K, who was sitting on the side looking at the double-edged knife in a daze.

Huang Tai reminded him: "Grandma said that his last bit of memory was wiped out and he forgot everyone."

The memory is cleaned, forget everyone?

Cheng Yu pushed Huang Tai away and walked towards that person step by step.

When the four eyes met, Gu Shi cautiously picked up the double-edged knife and pointed the tip of the knife at him, his eyes were so fierce that no offense could be tolerated.

"Is this how you treat your benefactor who has carried you away for so long?" He cheekily summed up his previous behavior as a kindness.

Sure enough, it worked.Gu Shi's hand holding the knife hesitated for a moment, but he didn't let it go.

Cheng Yu took a step forward, and the tip of the knife got closer to him.With a smile on his face that he couldn't tell, he raised his hand and pushed the tip of the knife away. He said, "Maybe you should listen to me first. You should have noticed that there are some names engraved on your knife, and there are also my names in it." .They said your memory was wiped and everyone was forgotten."

"..." Gu Shi put his hand down, looked down at the name on the knife, and stroked the name on it with one hand.

Cheng Yu went a step further, stretched out his hand and said, "Since you forgot, let's get to know each other again. My name is Cheng Yu."

He boldly pointed to his name on the knife and said, "Look, this is it. Your three-point water engraving is not very obvious. Then, the one next to it is your name, Gu Shi." He pointed to Gu Shi's name.

Gu Shi was slightly taken aback.

Cheng Yu continued: "Look, our names are still next to each other. When you engraved it, you must have done it on purpose. Look, Cheng Yu, Gu Shi. Isn't Cheng Yu and Gu Shi an 'idiom story'? It's really interesting to put our names together!"

Feeling the marks on the blade back and forth between the fingertips, Gu Shi's heart slowly relaxed at this moment.

The story of the Red Chamber ends here briefly, but there is still a foreshadowing, because the four stories must be connected in series by a hidden clue at the end.

Xiao Gu's last memory was wiped out, and from then on he got along with everyone as a blank slate, and after that, he kept laughing and being teased by Xiao Yu'er.
