Chapter 215 Breaking the Evil
Lei Zi and Ma Dapao thought about it carefully for a while, their faces suddenly changed, and they pointed at Lao Luo and the others and shouted, "I remember! You four came up from downstairs!"
"Why did you come up from downstairs? This is not right!"
Lao Luo and others were all confused.
Because in their opinion, they went upstairs, but as to why they appeared on the floor where Ma Dapao was, they didn't know.
"Lao Luo, Wang Xin, Liu Lei and Pingping, who among you is the ghost?" Lei Zi shouted vigilantly.
The four people panicked and said they were not ghosts.
Seeing that the seven people were about to fight, Jiang Ci said slowly: "Don't fight among yourselves first, the key is to leave the corridor."
Ma Dapao nodded: "Yes, yes, we have to leave here first."
Lao Luo looked at Jiang Ci: "What do you think we should do?"
Jiang Ci pondered for a moment and said, "Endless stairs, the eternal fourth floor, unchanging time... Bring out the relics you found for me to see."
Lei Zi immediately became defensive: "You don't want to steal the things, do you?"
Jiang Ci's eyes darkened.
Lao Luo winked at him and took out the pen first.
Lei Zi reluctantly took out his Walkman, and then Ping Ping took out his watch.
The moment Jiang Ci touched the pen, a surge of shocking resentment hit him.
It was the resentment of the deceased that remained on the pen, so strong that it was shocking.
She remained calm and picked up the Walkman again.
"Just watch, don't eavesdrop!" Lei Zi hurriedly stopped him.
Jiang Ci put on the headphones and pressed the play button. A gloomy and low crying voice came from the headphones, as piercing as a ghost's cry.
This is obviously wrong.
Because when Ma Dapao and Lei Zi listened with headphones on, they looked like they had discovered a treasure.
Who would treasure a strange cry?
She said nonchalantly, "So you were hiding it because you heard this."
Ma Dapao was a man who spoke his mind, and he blurted out, "Who told him to record the results of his research paper in there? Let's hear what happened."
Jiang Ci understood what was going on. It turned out that he had heard the thesis that the deceased had recorded before his death.
But why did she hear crying?
"Xiaoci, did you see anything?" Zhou Wu asked nervously.
Jiang Ci picked up the watch. The second hand was still moving, but the time was strangely frozen at 11:50.
Why stop at this point in time?
Jiang Ci raised his head, and his sharp eyes swept across the faces of the seven people, and asked them: "Think carefully, how many times have you walked through this corridor?"
Ma Dapao asked in confusion, "What do you mean by how many times we walked there? We just found the things and walked upstairs for the first time."
Pingping in the corner's expression suddenly changed, as if she had thought of something, and she began to tremble all over.
Jiang Ci walked over and patted her shoulder gently to calm her down.
"What do you remember?"
Pingping's face turned pale, and she said in panic, "I... I don't know if it's true or not. Just now, a feeling suddenly emerged in my mind. It's as if we have walked this staircase countless times, and it's the same endless staircase. We are trapped on the fourth floor, desperate and helpless..."
"The only difference is that it seems like you're not here."
Everyone looked at Jiang Ci again.
Jiang Ci said calmly, "I told you that you have been trapped here for a week."
Lei Zi didn't believe it: "That's not right. If we were really trapped for a week, why didn't we starve to death?"
"That's right." Ma Dapao agreed, "If we don't eat or drink for a week, even if we don't die, we can't still be full of energy, right?"
"Have you ever heard of someone getting lost in the mountains?" Jiang Ci said, "A person disappeared in the mountains for several days, and no matter how hard they looked, they couldn't find him. After several days, he was finally found alive. Tell me, how did he survive?"
Zhou Wu raised her hand: "If we live in the mountains, we should be able to eat wild fruits!"
Ma Dapao nodded: "Yes, the mountains are better than the library anyway. There are plants and herbs to eat."
"No, he didn't eat any plants. The reason he survived is because his stomach was full of soil." Jiang Ci said slowly, "He ate soil."
"earth?"
"There is a kind of monster in the mountains that will confuse people. That person thinks he is eating delicacies from the mountains and the sea, but in fact, all he eats is handfuls of dirt." Jiang Ci chuckled, "You haven't starved to death for a week, and you are in the library. What do you think you will eat?"
Lei Zi frowned: "Everyone is already nervous being trapped here, and you are telling such weird things to scare people."
"Yes, it's to scare you and make you pay attention to the fact that you have been trapped for a long time."
Zhou Wu was so scared that she almost cried, "Xiaoci, stop scaring us, and take us away from here quickly."
Jiang Ci took the watch and adjusted the time while saying: "The problem should be the time. Maybe we can get out if we adjust it to the corresponding time."
Lao Luo was a little anxious. "Should? Maybe? You mean even you are not sure? How can we believe it——"
The words haven't finished yet.
Jiang Ci suddenly slapped a magic talisman on his watch, quickly recited a spell that they couldn't understand, and then shouted: "Destroy the evil!"
The minute hand, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly moved and jumped to eleven fifty-one.
Zhou Wu said excitedly: "It's moving, we can go upstairs now!"
Everyone's faces lit up with joy. "Let's go, let's go! I don't want to be trapped in this haunted corridor anymore!"
Several people were about to rush upstairs.
Jiang Ci called them coldly, "Stop."
"Why don't you run? Are you waiting to be trapped and die?" Everyone didn't understand.
Jiang Ci pointed downstairs and said, "Don't go upstairs, go downstairs."
"Go down?" Everyone was even more confused. "We agreed to meet on the rooftop. What if we go down and can't come back up?"
"Yes, Xiaoci, what should they do if others have already rushed to the rooftop?" Zhou Wu said.
A few people insisted on going up.
It is difficult to persuade a suicidal person with good words.
If Jiang Ci hadn’t promised Jun Yan to rescue these students, he wouldn’t have bothered to care.
She glared at them, bit her fingertips, and drew a spell with blood, "Break the evil!"
The illusory corridor was instantly torn apart, revealing the real scene.
Ma Dapao, who was standing at the front of the stairs and walking up, felt a flash before his eyes, and then he saw one of his feet had stepped out of the edge of the roof.
"Oh my god!" Ma Dapao looked at the abyss downstairs and was so scared that he almost fell down.
Lao Luo and others quickly grabbed him and pulled him back.
It was then that everyone realized that they had already been on the rooftop!
And if Xiaoci hadn't stopped them, they would all have fallen off the roof and been smashed to pieces.
Everyone was so frightened that they were sweating profusely, their hearts were pounding, and they collapsed to the ground with expressions of extreme fear.
Jiang Ci smiled leisurely: "Keep going, these little brats have been idle for too long."
