Wen Qing's eyelashes trembled, and she gently pushed Li Jingjing's hand away, signaling her to let go.

Li Jingjing guessed what he meant, took a step forward, and said to Ji Junfeng courageously, "Impossible."

"I know Wen Qing's buttons very well."

Ji Junfeng lifted his eyelids and said to Wen Qing: "I know it clearly too."

Li Jingjing turned his head to look at Wen Qing, his lips moved slightly, and he said silently: [Run.]

Wen Qing blinked, indicating that he understood.

It's not curfew now, Ji Junfeng can't do anything to them.

Wen Qing lowered his eyes and watched Li Jingjing's fingers tapping on the back of his hand.

One, two...

At the third time, both of them ran out at the same time.

Before he ran out of the high priest's building, several figures suddenly appeared outside the door.

Teacher Chen, Teacher Sun, Qian Gangfeng...all the "people" in the locker room came out and blocked our way.

Wen Qing stopped and the vine lying quietly on the grass beside his feet began to crawl slowly. The green leaves on it swayed in the wind, and it seemed to be in a good mood.

Hearing a strange noise behind him, Wen Qing looked back.

Those burly men in black, who seemed to be produced in an assembly line factory, walked behind them at some point and surrounded them like zombies besieging a city.

Wen Qing's heart was beating wildly and she pursed her lips tightly.

Ji Junfeng knew it since yesterday, perhaps shortly after he and Oz left the underground.

The Baitong was closed on purpose, and the food was reduced on purpose...

Wen let out a breath, knowing that he would not be able to leave here today.

He let go of Li Jingjing's hand. He couldn't leave here, but Li Jingjing could.

Seeing this, Ji Junfeng smiled softly and said to Li Jingjing, "There are still five minutes of curfew."

The implication is that if you don't return to the dormitory within five minutes, you will be put in solitary confinement.

Li Jingjing's mouth twitched, and she almost cursed, "Do you think I'm afraid of your little confinement?"

"I--"

Just as she said this, her sleeve was tugged and a soft hand gently patted the back of her hand.

Wen Qing's face turned pale and he shook his head imperceptibly.

no need.

He couldn't leave, but Li Jingjing could still leave. There was no need for both of them to be arrested.

Li Jingjing gritted his teeth and said to Ji Junfeng, "I'm leaving!"

"Oh shit."

She cursed under her breath and quickly ran towards the dormitory building.

Ji Junfeng walked up to Wen Qing with a smile, and imitated Li Jingjing, holding his hand: "We are leaving too."

His voice was vague and if you listened carefully you could tell it was very similar to the ethereal voice of the high priest.

Wen Qing's fingertips trembled slightly, and she wondered why she hadn't noticed this before!

Ji Junfeng lowered his head, looked at Wen Qing's white and tender hands, and couldn't help but pinch them.

Wen Qing's body froze and he didn't dare to struggle.

Ji Junfeng gently brushed his fingertips and fingertips, like a child who had obtained a new toy and kept touching it.

After a while, Ji Junfeng stopped playing.

He held Wen Qing's hand, slowly lowered his head, took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "It's all my smell."

Wen Qing's fingers stiffened and his back felt cold.

He wanted to cry but had no tears, and didn't understand why he attracted such a pervert.

Ji Junfeng took his hand, walked to the basement, and went straight to one of the confinement rooms.

Wen Qing's eyelids twitched. It was the path leading underground.

Ji Junfeng wants to take him back to that old nest.

The door of the confinement room slowly closed and the light gradually disappeared.

It was pitch black in front of me, and I couldn't see my hand in front of me.

Wen Qing's eyes, which had been enduring for a long time, suddenly turned red.

He was scared, he was angry, he didn't want to go in...

Wen Qing's eyes were filled with mist, tears welled up in her eyes and dripped onto the ground.

Ji Junfeng paused.

Wen Qing couldn't see anyone, he could only feel that Ji Junfeng was motionless.

There was a sudden click in my ear.

It's the sound of a lighter.

Immediately afterwards, a small burning flame appeared in front of Wen Qing's eyes, illuminating the road.

Ji Junfeng turned his face to the side, his eyes and brows were full of concern, his cold white skin was warmed by the firelight, it looked less lewd and more gentle.

The fear in Wen Qing's heart did not diminish at all.

With tears in his eyes, he thought, this is a vine covered with human skin.

Not human.

Ji Junfeng blinked and asked gently, "Are you afraid of the dark?"

Wen Qing pursed her lips, not daring to say that she was afraid of you.

Since he didn't say anything, Ji Junfeng naturally took it as a consent. He raised his right hand, and a vine appeared on his palm.

Ji Junfeng lowered his eyes and calmly placed the tip of the vine on the flame.

Fires were burning at the tips of the vines, lighting up the small space even brighter.

If you ignore the fact that it's a vine, it looks a bit like a candle.

Wen Qing was stunned for a moment, and the next second, Ji Junfeng placed the vine in his palm.

The warmth of the flames hit my face, emitting a faint fragrance, exactly the same as the fragrance when I burned incense yesterday.

Wen Qing immediately realized that the incense used in yesterday's prayers all came from Ji Junfeng.

His eyelashes fluttered as he noticed that the other end of the vine came out of Ji Junfeng's sleeve.

The clothes on Ji Junfeng's shoulder blades bulged slightly, with a faint green color.

This vine belongs to Ji Junfeng.

Wen Qing pursed her lips, with mixed emotions.

Ji Junfeng didn't even blink, as if the vine was not a part of his body.

With a smile on his lips, he stared at Wen Qing's face: "It won't be dark this way."

Wen Qing's gaze involuntarily fell on the fingerprints on Ji Junfeng's neck. The horrifying purple color faded a lot, leaving only a faint bruise.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word, so he blew directly at the vines.

Blow out the flames, and red sparks will appear around the tips of the vines.

Wen Qing subconsciously retracted his hand and suppressed it with his sleeve.

Ji Junfeng looked at him puzzledly.

Wen Qing held his breath for a while, then choked up and said, "I'm not afraid of the dark."

Ji Junfeng responded and lit the lighter again.

Wen Qing narrowed his eyes and saw a green bud slowly emerging from the tip of the vine. In the blink of an eye, a small white flower bloomed from the green bud.

Ji Junfeng calmly lit the small flower.

A flower-shaped flame appeared in front of Wen Qing.

Ji Junfeng tilted his head and asked, "Does this look better?"

Wen Qing was silent.

Ji Junfeng handed the lighter to Wen Qing again, held the vine himself, and said with a smile: "If you are bored, you can burn it for fun."

After saying that, he took Wen Qing's hand and walked forward.

Soon, there was light at the end of the road.

Wen Qing returned to the place where he saw Ji Junfeng that night.

But this time, there were mattresses, quilts and pillows in the huge vine pool.

It seems that Ji Junfeng had already prepared to lock him up.

Ji Junfeng took Wen Qing by the hand and walked straight to the bed, got into the quilt, and patted the pillow: "It's late, it's time to go to bed."

Hearing the word sleep, Wen Qing said vigilantly: "I'm not sleepy."

Ji Junfeng tapped his fingertips on the pillow, raised his eyes, and looked at Wen Qing: "Then do you want to do it?"

“Exercise helps you sleep.”

As he said this, he lifted the quilt and began to take off his clothes.

Wen Qing immediately said: "Of course not!"

Fearing that Ji Junfeng would use force, he instinctively took a step back, then stopped. There were vines everywhere, and if Ji Junfeng wanted to, he would not be able to avoid them.

Wen Qing stared at Ji Junfeng closely, and his eyes began to feel hot again.

Ji Junfeng lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then asked, "Are you going to hit me?"

He looked serious, as if he was really concerned about Wen Qing's sleep.

Wen Qing was worried that if he continued to refuse, Ji Junfeng would let him try first...

After hesitating for a while, he stuttered, "I, I'm not used to sleeping with others."

"Is that so," Ji Junfeng blinked, slowly got out of the quilt, lay down on the vines beside him, tilted his head and looked at Wen Qing, "Can I do it now?"

Wen Qing knew that this was where Ji Junfeng slept, and it was impossible for him to give the entire space to her.

After a while, Wen Qing bent down, pulled the mattress away from Ji Junfeng, and then slowly lay down on it.

Ji Junfeng tilted his head to look at him: "Good night."

Wen Qing didn't say anything, but looked at him with wide eyes. After making sure that Ji Junfeng really didn't intend to do anything to her, she wrapped herself tightly in the quilt.

He didn't dare to sleep, and couldn't fall asleep. He stared blankly at the vines on the ceiling.

Suddenly, I felt a chill on my neck.

Wen Qing was startled and sat up suddenly.

The vine that had reached his shoulder fell to his hand with a snap, and then rubbed his hand affectionately.

Ji Junfeng opened his eyes, his dark pupils filled with sleepiness.

Wen Qing: "You, you are asleep!"

Ji Junfeng glanced at the vines, then at Wen Qing's hand, and explained in a hoarse voice: "It's instinct."

Wen Qing was stunned for a moment, thinking he had heard it wrong: "What?"

Ji Junfeng explained slowly: "I instinctively want to get close to you."

Wen Qing carefully pushed aside the vines beside him. After a long while, he couldn't help but say to Ji Junfeng, "It's not instinct."

"It's me..." He paused, remembering what 001 said about buff, swallowed the second half of the sentence, and changed the topic to "It's my prop."

Ji Junfeng slightly widened his eyes, a little confused: "Props?"

After a while, he suddenly said, "Yes, you have those things."

Wen Qing lay down again, and the vine came up again, lying on the quilt on his chest like a small animal.

He shook the quilt and shook the vines off.

Ji Junfeng added: "It's not because of the props."

"It's my instinct. I want to be close to you..."

Wen Qing covered the quilt to his chin and recalled his experiences from childhood to adulthood. No plants or animals had ever been overly close to him.

He thought to himself, it seems that buffs and props are different.

The god-level buff is still very confusing.

Ji Junfeng actually knew that he didn't use any props.

Just as he was thinking about it, the vine slowly climbed onto the quilt again, as if it had sensed Wen Qing's rejection. It half stood in the air, swayed slowly, and a small pink flower began to grow on the top.

Seeing this flower, Wen Qing inexplicably couldn't get angry.

The vines immediately became more aggressive and climbed onto the quilt on his chest again, lying there quietly.

Wen Qing lowered his eyes and stared at the petals, then asked, "How long are you going to keep me locked up?"

Ji Junfeng told the truth: "It will be fine when the God's birthday comes."

“He’s very smart.”

"You can't see him."

Wen Qing couldn't help but ask, "Are you talking about Bai Tong?"

Ji Junfeng smiled and said, "Yes."

"But he is too smart and too vigilant."

"Otherwise, I should have taken you away from here by now..."

Wen Qing pursed his lips: "So you want to lock him up until the God's Birthday?"

"No," Ji Junfeng closed his eyes, his voice getting lower and lower, and he seemed to fall asleep soon, "There is no need..."

****

The other side

Li Jingjing ran back to the dormitory and went to the fourth floor to find Oz first.

The dormitory was empty, no one was there. She waited for a long time, but Oz didn't come back, so she returned to the third floor with a sad face.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Bai Tong sitting on the sofa. His face was a little pale, but his eyes were clear and there seemed to be nothing abnormal.

"Where have you been?"

"Brother Bai, my Brother Bai," Li Jingjing rushed over and hugged Bai Tong, howling, "You are finally released."

Bai Tong looked outside the door, but didn't see Wen Qing. His face gradually darkened. "Where's Wen Qing?"

Li Jingjing said with a bitter face: "He was taken away by Ji Junfeng."

"Wen Qing and Oz discovered that Ji Junfeng, the high priest, and those..."

Before he could finish his words, Bai Tong interrupted and said, "I know."

"What happened in the past two days?"

Li Jingjing was stunned for a moment, then briefly recounted what had happened in the past two days.

Bai Tong hummed and looked at the clock on the wall expressionlessly.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

He said nothing. Li Jingjing was a little worried and asked in a low voice: "Brother Bai, what should we do?"

Bai Tong said solemnly: "Wait until twelve o'clock."

Li Jingjing was at a loss: "Then what?"

Bai Tong: "Saturday is carnival day."

Li Jingjing stared at him for a while and asked, "Can we do whatever we want on Carnival Day?"

Bai Tong lowered his eyes and said in a cold voice: "This week's celebration is a complete sacrificial process."

"Fasting, abstinence, choosing an auspicious time, exorcising evil spirits, burning incense and praying, revelry, and finally offering sacrifices."

Li Jingjing's expression changed: "We are the sacrifices for the God's Birthday?!"

Bai Tong corrected: "All students are."

“On the first day we came, we signed the agreement in front of the statue.”

The stone tablet with inscriptions.

Li Jingjing's face turned even worse, and he asked in disbelief, "Then will we all die on the God's birthday?"

Bai Tong shook his head: "I don't know."

"The matter of the sacrifice is not the remaining fifty percent secret."

Li Jingjing couldn't help but complain: "This crappy copy has too many secrets."

Bai Tong looked at her and said slowly, "There shouldn't be any rules on Carnival Day."

"Even if he doesn't let me out, I can leave the detention room at twelve o'clock."

"Carnival Day is a carnival for players, and also a carnival for Ji Junfeng."

Players can move freely on this day to search for secrets, and the boss can kill people at will, as long as the number of sacrifices is guaranteed to be 69.

Li Jingjing was a little confused after hearing this. She stood up and said, "No, I'll go wash my face and calm down first."

Bai Tong responded, staring at the clock.

Nine o'clock, ten o'clock, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock.

When the second hand turned to twelve o'clock, the broadcast sounded: "Fasting is over, carnival begins!"

"Let us welcome the upcoming God's Birthday together!"

As soon as the words fell, the whole dormitory building was in an uproar.

Soon, all kinds of shouts and gasps from men and women were heard from all directions.

Bai Tong and Li Jingjing looked at each other, then left the dormitory building and headed for the high priest building.

Li Jingjing asked quietly: "Can the two of us beat Ji Junfeng?"

Bai Tong looked at the dark night and whispered, "After seven o'clock in the evening, he was very weak."

Therefore, Article 3 of the school rules prohibits them from leaving the dormitory, and teachers are rarely seen at night.

If we can’t rescue Wen Qing tonight, let alone during the day.

Li Jingjing looked worried because Ji Junfeng had so many minions.

And he also has the identity of a high priest, and other students are so crazy about him.

If a fight really breaks out, they will definitely be at a disadvantage.

Players can attack monsters, but cannot kill the indigenous people who are also humans.

Li Jingjing hesitated for a while and suggested: "Why don't we go find... Oz?!"

Speak of the devil, here he comes. Li Jingjing turned around and saw Oz standing under the tree in front of him, with his eyes half closed, wondering what he was thinking.

Hearing his own name, Oz raised his eyelids, glanced at Bai Tong, paused slightly, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

One person is missing.

Seeing that Bai Tong didn't say anything, Li Jingjing gave up the idea of greeting Oz.

As he walked past Oz, a sneer rang in his ears.

Bai Tong paused, strode into the high priest's building, and went straight to the basement.

Bai Tong lowered his eyes slightly and quickly scanned the confinement rooms on both sides. He soon discovered that one of the doors was slightly different from the other doors.

He stopped and said to Li Jingjing, "Here."

Li Jingjing was about to nod when a hand suddenly appeared at his side.

Oz was following them all the time.

He stood beside Li Jingjing and removed the door indifferently.

The inside of the door was filled with layers of vines that were entwined and overlapped with each other, filling the entire confinement room tightly, making it impossible to see the path behind.

Bai Tong frowned and turned to walk towards the archive room at the corner.

The wall where Wen Qing had fallen previously was now covered with green vines, which looked very out of place.

Bai Tong stretched out his hand to cover the vine, his expression changed: "The prop is invalid."

Li Jingjing was stunned. He tried to step on the vines and indeed heard the system prompt sound.

There is no way to use items on vines.

Bai Tong frowned, took out a lighter and tried to light the vine branches.

The green leaves stood steadily in the flames, without any change; they were not afraid of fire.

Li Jingjing was a little surprised: "Fireproof?"

Oz frowned slightly and took out a dagger.

The moment the dagger hit the vine, there was a clanging sound, and a cut appeared on the blade, but the vine remained intact.

Li Jingjing was stunned: "Is this vine so hard?"

It looks soft, but it’s actually so hard?

"Wen Qing is going to suffer a lot!"

The next second, she intuitively felt that the temperature around her had dropped a lot.

The two people beside him had sullen faces and cold eyes.

Li Jingjing said dryly: "This is a vine. Ji Junfeng's people may not be so hard."

After he finished speaking, Bai Tong and Oz's faces became even worse.

Li Jingjing realized that he had said something wrong again, and hurried to make amends: "Ji Junfeng is so handsome, even if he really did that, Wen Qing would not suffer any loss."

Oz spat out two words coldly: "Shut up."

Li Jingjing walked silently behind Bai Tong.

Oz scowled: "We can't get in."

Li Jingjing wanted to ask what to do, but when he saw Oz and the vines' identical green eyes, he didn't dare to speak.

Bai Tong leaned against the wall and closed his eyes: "Just waiting for the birthday of the God."

"There are still 25 hours left."

They couldn't get in, so they could only wait for the people inside to come out.

Wen Qing will be fine.

It's going to be fine.

Bai Tong slowly opened his eyes and looked at Oz who turned and left: "Do you know this copy?"

Oz paused for a moment, and without turning his head, he said, "Someone passed through."

Bai Tong pursed his lips and looked at the vine wall quietly. After a while, he slowly said, "Nothing will happen on the God's Birthday."

Li Jingjing was stunned: "What?"

"Those who have cleared the game have completed the main quest. Oz stayed behind to find the secret of the advanced quest."

"The school history says that students who enter are protected by God and pray in the confinement room. God has never intended to take action against humans."

"69 sacrifices on the God's Birthday are safe."

****

Wen Qing didn't know that Bai Tong and Li Jingjing wanted to save him. He lay on the soft mattress and soon felt sleepy and fell asleep in a daze.

I don’t know how long I slept, but suddenly I heard a slight noise.

Wen Qing opened his eyes immediately and was a little dazed when he saw the overwhelming green.

"I'll get you breakfast." Ji Junfeng's slightly hoarse voice sounded in my ears.

Wen Qing turned her head and met Ji Junfeng's dark eyes. Her brain slowly started to work and she remembered why she was here.

Ji Junfeng was lying on his side, his collar hanging loosely on his shoulders, and his eyes were still a little sleepy, as if he had just woken up.

Like a friendly roommate preparing to bring food to another roommate.

Wen Qing was dazed.

Ji Junfeng stretched, stood up lazily, and walked out along the path.

Wen Qing looked at his back and counted the time silently in his heart.

Guessing that Ji Junfeng should have left the basement, he immediately stood up and walked quickly towards the path leading out.

Wen Qing still had the lighter that Ji Junfeng had given him yesterday, and he quickly walked to the exit.

After seeing the vines covering the wall, the joy in his heart disappeared completely.

There was no way out; he couldn't even get into the confinement room.

Wen Qing was so angry that he couldn't help but kick the vine.

The kicked vine trembled, slowly moved to his feet, and rubbed his ankle affectionately.

****

As soon as Ji Junfeng walked out of the High Priest Building, he saw two players running into the teaching building with blood on their hands.

He retracted his gaze and walked towards the cafeteria.

The conversation between the two of them was heard on the wind:

"Chen Qiang and Zhang Chengrun are already dead, and there are still 70 students left."

"One more missing."

"Li Jingjing has been following Bai Tong's butt, so it's hard to take action."

"There are still 18 hours left. We still have a chance."

…………

After hearing Li Jingjing's name, Ji Junfeng raised his eyelids, moved his fingertips slightly, and directly tied the two players to the tree.

He saved Wen Qing's friend.

Thinking of this, Ji Junfeng smiled, moved his mind slightly, drove the puppet to the cafeteria to get breakfast, and turned back to the basement.

The vines that filled the confinement room slowly spread out, creating a path that was wide enough for one person to pass through.

The bright light suddenly shone on the face of the man behind the vines.

Wen Qing opened his eyes wide in astonishment and looked at Ji Junfeng who suddenly appeared.

It's only been a few minutes?!

How come you're back so soon?

Ji Junfeng's expression remained unchanged. He walked up to Wen Qing with a smile and asked, "Do you want to go out?"

Wen nodded gently.

Ji Junfeng raised his hand, and the vines grew again, blocking the path completely.

Wen Qing: “…”

Ji Junfeng lowered his eyes, glanced at the lighter in Wen Qing's hand, and said lightly: "If you set the fire, you can get out."

Wen Qing pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.

Seeing this, Ji Junfeng leaned over, got in front of him, and stared at Wen Qingli's beautiful eyes: "Why don't you burn me?"

"Are you feeling sorry for me?"

Ji Junfeng's tone rose slightly, and he sounded very happy.

Meeting his expectant eyes, Wen Qing fell silent.

Actually... he was just afraid of burning himself to death.
