Candy House in the Forest 1
The entrance exams in previous years were not so intense, so the research group mostly selected people during the practical classes in the junior year, and those who were signed up were directly issued graduation certificates.
Now the question is, Ji Yunding and Zheng Nuo are completely outsiders of the industry and have no idea about the basic knowledge, so they must attend the class.
"This year, a policy was introduced to allow research groups to set up their own courses in this university. Just remember to attend the practical classes of one group."
As he spoke, Ji Liuxing felt that this was not a suitable place to talk, so he picked up Xie Yian and prepared to take the others away.
"You can ask the responsible group for the specific situation. I am not responsible for this matter."
This time, Ji Yunding stared at Ji Liuxing's hand, but found that he did not move, and the surrounding scenery changed.
Several cafeteria staff members were sitting on clean chairs chatting, the atmosphere was peaceful.
"What's wrong? One last question. I still have to go back and write a self-criticism." Ji Liuxing put on gloves, lifted up the still dizzy Xie Yian, smiled and sighed.
Although it was just an excuse - after all, he only needed to write a few words to show his attitude, and no one would bother with him.
"So, snapping fingers is not a condition for opening an alternate dimension, it's just because it looks cooler?" Ji Yunding blurted out the question.
"That's right." Ji Liuxing admitted without any embarrassment, and then waved his hand with a smile, "Goodbye, I have high hopes for you two."
Watching Ji Liuxing leave, Zheng Nuo breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but poke Ji Yunding: "Are you okay? You've been through a lot these past two days, with dislocation and bloodletting."
Ji Yunding shook his head and just watched Ji Liuxing walking further and further away.
vigilance.
"Yunding, you can't be..."
"I was wondering, is it okay to drag someone along the street like this?"
Indeed not.
Zheng Nuo felt that he must be crazy to think that this roommate would have any romantic thoughts.
"Of course not. Don't learn everything." Zheng Nuo tapped Ji Yunding's head gently.
Ji Yunding curled his lips and muttered, "This person is weird."
"Yeah, I almost thought he was your long-lost brother or something like that." Zheng Nuo complained, then hesitated, "Although he doesn't look alike...but is he really not?"
To Zheng Nuo, these two people are weird in their own way, and both are reliable and unreliable.
"No, my original last name wasn't Ji either."
?
Zheng Nuo was about to open his mouth to ask a question, but immediately shut up again.
Whatever the story behind it, it's definitely not a good thing.
Although Zheng Nuo was not sure about Ji Yunding's condition, even if Ji Yunding always looked like he was not in any pain, Zheng Nuo should not keep asking him.
"Come on, I'll go back to the dormitory with you and you can lie down for a while."
The two chatted idly along the way. Zheng Nuo deliberately avoided related topics and mainly talked about points and dormitory dinners.
"You lie down for a while, I have some things to do, I'll be back later."
"good."
Ji Yunding responded while lying on the bed, and only sat up when he heard the door close, feeling the silence of the empty dormitory.
Loneliness is a black hole, and she is used to staying in the center of the black hole, isolated from the world. Malice cannot pierce her, or even touch her, but other things are also isolated from her, and she needs to think to understand.
The connection between people and the world seems to be separated by a layer of glass.
Ji Yunding propped herself up and touched the bottle of mineral water that Zheng Nuo had left at the bedside. The slightly cool bottle made her sigh, unscrewed the cap and took a few sips, and then she felt her mind clearer.
The doll came to her side at some point and looked at her quietly as she covered her face with her hands.
When the input of emotions was blocked, the output seemed to become increasingly difficult. Ji Yunding thought that he would at least shed one or two tears, but he didn't.
It just accumulates in my heart, like a dormant volcano that can't erupt.
Four days later, in the classroom.
Ji Yunding and Zheng Nuo sat together, but for some reason, as the class time was approaching, there were only seven people in the classroom.
So, Ji Yunding decided to ask the omnipotent Zheng Nuo.
Zheng Nuo lowered his voice and said, "The number of places for the practical class in Group 1 is fixed. This course can only be directly assigned from the academic affairs system. You cannot choose it yourself."
"That's right, because if there are more, I won't be able to guarantee everyone's safety." Ji Liuxing walked behind the two of them at some point and interrupted the conversation as if nothing had happened.
After that, he walked up to the podium and continued to explain with a smile: "The content of this class is very simple. I will use my ability to send you to some strange stories and pull you out in time before you die."
Ji Yunding looked at Ji Liuxing. He made a lot of hand movements when he spoke. Most of the time, his palms were slightly extended forward and upward, occasionally he crossed his fingers, and from time to time he tapped the table or his arms with his fingers.
"First of all, if you act recklessly and completely ignore the rules, there's a chance that I won't be able to save you. But if it's not intentional, it's not easy to break multiple rules at the same time before I can react. So don't worry too much."
In order to prevent them from falling off, his gloves seemed to be designed with two layers, and the inner layer was tightly wrapped around the wrist. Ji Yunding remembered that the last time he took off his gloves, there was a circle of red marks on his wrists, as if he was wearing a rubber band.
"Secondly, even for me, maintaining a temporary extradimensional passage is not an easy task. If you think you won't die and act lazy, you don't have to come to class next time."
This kind of distracted behavior is not easy to detect, after all, generally speaking, he is still looking at the person on the podium.
"Finally, do everything you can to live longer for your GPA. Remember, there is no such thing as a weird story without a breakthrough point, so keep thinking."
However, most excellent investigators are extremely sensitive guys, not to mention the best ones currently.
"Student Ji Yunding, please repeat what I just said."
"Yes." Ji Yunding looked down at the key words he had written down on the paper and answered, "First, don't seek death. Second, don't give up. Finally, use your brain."
"...Should I say that you listened or not?" Ji Liuxing's tone sounded more like he was trying to hold back a laugh than helpless.
Zheng Nuo looked even more helpless. He rolled up his notebook and tapped it lightly on Ji Yunding's head.
"Okay, okay, just do your best." Ji Liuxing no longer had any intention of pretending to be serious. He simply took off his gloves and waved his hand, teleporting several students to the other dimension one by one.
When only Ji Yunding was left, Ji Liuxing crossed his hands in front of his chest, looking as if he was smiling and said, "Were you looking at my hands just now?"
"right."
"You're so good that you can't even listen to such an important instruction?"
Ji Yunding tilted his head and said seriously: "Yes, but I'm very sorry, I will pay attention next time."
This confused Ji Liuxing, who had originally just wanted to remind Ji Yunding, but Ji Yunding obviously had no intention of expanding this topic. He just looked at Ji Liuxing sincerely, wondering why it was not his turn to take the test yet.
Then Ji Yunding's eyes blurred, and the next second he appeared in front of a strange building. Ji Liuxing stood in the empty classroom and silently looked at his hands.
The eaves of the building are hung with candies and gift boxes, a life-sized gingerbread man is placed at the door, the texture of the wall is similar to half-melted white chocolate, and the roof is a red velvet cake with cream in it, dotted with pearl-like sugar beans.
At first glance, it looks like an amusement park-style decoration, but it makes people feel a little uncomfortable because there are too many elements piled up.
"Candy house?" Ji Yunding immediately put what happened just now behind his mind and looked at the sign in front of him with attention.
The air was filled with a sweet smell that was almost suffocating, but it was not particularly unbearable for Ji Yunding.
[Lost sweetheart, welcome to the candy house. We are happy to provide you with a place to rest and a cup of hot cocoa, but please be sure to pay attention to the following matters.
1. Avoid staying outside the candy house for a long time.
- Dear little cake, it's too unsafe out there, you will be broken in half like a cookie.
2. Try not to eat anything in the candy house.
-Oh no, that's nonsense. When hunger burns your stomach, you have the right to do anything.
3. Find the mother-in-law, she will give you food. You can accept the vegetarian food and fruits she gives you, but politely refuse desserts.
——Little Tangdou, don’t make your mother-in-law sad.
4. Don't fall asleep in front of the fire, no matter how relaxed you feel.
5. When there is a mirror nearby, please try to make sure you are in a dark place. If you are in a bright place, please try to cover the mirror.
6. Don’t make your mother-in-law sad. 】
Ji Yunding read it quickly several times, then recited it silently. After making sure that he had memorized it, he was about to take a step forward when he found something wrong with his feet.
The building in front of her was flashing a strange light, serving as a source of light. Ji Yunding's shadow should have been cast behind her, but when she looked down, she found that the shadow in front of her seemed to be moving out of sync with her.
It seemed to want to grab Ji Yunding's ankle and drag her into the deep and quiet forest. Ji Yunding raised her foot and walked forward, feeling a little stagnant.
If we stay here any longer, we might not be able to move. Let's go.
Ji Yunding pushed open the door made of dark chocolate with her hands. The chocolate melted a little due to her body temperature, making her hands sticky.
What comes into view in the room is a long and wide corridor. In the middle, there is a light bulb hanging every few meters. For some reason, it can still glow and cast a cone-shaped white light.
Ji Yunding turned sideways and glanced at the crack of the door that was not yet closed. There was no wind, but the shadow of the tree was still swaying. The shadow in front of Ji Yunding just now was left outside the door. It stood up completely, and its dark and empty face was facing Ji Yunding inside the door.
So Ji Yunding gave up the idea of leaving the door half open, closed the door gently, and pulled the bolt to make sure these things couldn't follow.
