Chapter 004: Sheniu's Paradise
"Welcome to Penglai Academy!"
“Bang!”
Zhu Changan rushed the fastest, but was caught off guard and sprayed with ribbons by the enthusiastic seniors.
"I told you not to be anxious." Shen Liuxue had the foresight to open the umbrella, and the ribbons and other things were blocked by the umbrella. Mo Xuanji, who was following behind, was lucky enough to get into a safe area.
"Huh?" In the corner of his eye, it seemed as if a dark shadow rushed out of the carriage at an extremely fast speed. Mo Xuanji looked around in confusion.
"What's wrong?"
"Something seemed to flash by?"
"Which senior student raised this spirit beast?"
“…”
At this time, all the freshmen gathered here. Mo Xuanji counted them curiously and found that there were only more than 200 people in total, not as many as he had imagined.
A senior student in a long gown with wide sleeves and a small yellow hat on his head, holding a small flag in one hand and a loud speaker in the other, said, "Come on, students, look at the flags in my hands. Boys, one team, girls, one team. We will take you to the dormitory area to settle in. Gather at the dormitory entrance at 4 o'clock. We will go to the banquet hall for the opening banquet."
"Yeah!"
Sometimes, fewer people means more resources to allocate.
When he saw the dormitory, Mo Xuanji realized that his guess about four people sitting at the upper and lower tables was too conservative.
This is a triple dormitory. It has three bedrooms, a living room, and a bathroom. Each person has their own private bedroom, fully furnished, with even the beds pre-made. The living room is a common area, where the kitchenware, refrigerator, and other items are stored.
This is not a dormitory, this is a warm little home!
"Based on the accommodation conditions, I think I chose the right school." Mo Xuanji appeared to be a cool guy on the surface, but he was actually shedding tears of happiness in his heart.
"Hey? Xuanji! We are in the same dormitory!" Zhu Changan looked at the keys in the two people's hands in surprise. The numbers on them were the same.
No. 166, so lucky!
The third person had already arrived and chose the bedroom on the far right. The door was closed, probably because they were packing up. Mo Xuanji thought about it and chose the bedroom on the left.
The time the school left them did not seem to be enough. The freshmen just delivered their suitcases to the room and hurried to the dormitory entrance. They could only plan to pack up at night.
After everyone gathered, the freshmen followed the seniors who led the way and finally arrived at a cafeteria with a very high-end decoration.
"Okay, this is where you first-year students will have a dinner together. Don't worry, there won't be any teachers here tonight. It's just a party among us students. We seniors are on the second floor, so you can come to us if you need anything!" The senior student who brought them here showed a very sunny and sincere smile. After receiving the thanks and infatuated cheers from the first-year students, he closed the door of the banquet hall gracefully, acting very politely.
By the way, every senior who is in charge of guiding the freshmen is dressed very brightly and beautifully. If they were to go out, they could all act out a costume drama in their true colors.
A senior student upstairs said with a look of disgust: "Tsk, as soon as your senior sticks his butt out, I know what he is going to do..."
"Ahem, don't swear. We need to build a civilized campus now," a companion reminded in a low voice.
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot."
......
The happy freshmen of the seniors were unaware that they were already overwhelmed by happiness.
"Too extravagant, too extravagant! Using Xuanbingsui as a teacup, such a waste!" Shen Liuxue held up an inky teacup, his face filled with heartache. "What is this, warm jade? Damn, using the finest warm jade to warm the soup! Oh my God! This is..."
Zhu Changan wandered around the food areas with his plate, discussing with the people around him which dish was delicious from time to time.
Mo Xuanji silently hugged himself and retreated to a corner. This kind of situation was a bit too terrifying for a single person. Of the only two people he knew, one was immersed in the grief of having all his treasures turned into tableware, while the other, incarnated as a social bull, was chatting with the two hundred or so people present.
Not one! Was! spared! It's horrible.
"System—" He had almost forgotten that the system was also gone. Ever since he entered the school, the system had left a message saying "dormant for a while" and hadn't made any movement since then. He was left alone to face this bleak reality.
While distracted, Mo Xuanji accidentally bumped into someone. He was startled and was about to apologize, but he didn't expect the other person's reaction to be even greater than his.
"Ah!!!!" The classmate quickly ripped off the sofa towel and wrapped himself up, squatting on the ground in a dark manner. It was so fast that Mo Xuanji didn't even have time to see anything except the brown hair.
"Um, classmate, are you okay?"
"I... I'm fine, don't worry, I'm fine, really." Although he said this, his voice was trembling.
"Are you really not feeling unwell?" "Classmate, you're shaking like a sieve!"
"Ugh. Please... don't mind me. Sinful people like us really shouldn't be here... Please let me rot alone in this dark corner... Your Majesty the Demon King... please forgive my cowardice..."
I get it, severe social anxiety, maybe a little bit of a middle school student.
The other party uttered another meaningless hum, as if mumbling something.
Zhu Changan, who was chatting with someone at this time, said something to others and turned his head to look over here.
"Wait, don't—"
Zhu Changan showed a brilliant smile and slowly spoke——
The others also followed his gaze and shifted their gazes—
"Xuan Ji!" The silly golden-haired boy came over with a happy look on his face, attracting the attention of everyone in the audience.
Bang!
Mo Xuanji felt like she was standing in the center of a stage, surrounded by darkness, with pale headlights shining down from above. She was incredibly conspicuous, with nowhere to hide, being watched by everyone.
What could Mo Xuanji do to him? She would just forgive him with a smile. He also wanted to find a sofa towel to wrap himself up.
The dark mushroom beside it let out a miserable groan, then shrank its body and slipped into the gap under the cover of the sofa cloth.
Mo Xuanji's pupils trembled. Tears welled up in her heart. Erkang said: Brother, don't go, take me with you! ! ! !
"Let me introduce you, this is my good friend I met on the road, Mo Xuanji. Xuanji, these are my friends who grew up with me in the courtyard."
"Hello." Mo Xuanji had a faint smile on her face and looked calm, but in fact her soul had been gone for a long time.
"Hello, hello." Several people took turns shaking hands with him cordially and exchanged names.
"Hey? Where is that person just now?" Zhu Changan asked.
"Maybe it turned into a mushroom and hid away." Although it sounds fake, it is true.
"Hey? What an amazing skill." Although it sounded fake, I really believed it. "Then let's not bother Mushroom-san."
Fortunately, everyone's attention was quickly diverted, and the feeling of being on edge disappeared, and Mo Xuanji finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The party quickly came to an end.
"Is everyone full and satisfied?" a cheerful voice sounded. He seemed very happy, and the curve of his mouth could not be suppressed.
"I'm full~" the innocent kids replied.
"Are you happy?"
"happy!"
"Well, let's play a game now~"
Just as he finished speaking, the door to the banquet hall suddenly burst open. It was the senior who had led the way before. However, his face was filled with panic, his clothes were disheveled, and there were spots of blood on them. "Enemy attack! Don't agree to him! He is...ah!"
A long sword pierced his heart. He looked down in disbelief, and when the sword was pulled away, he fell to the ground without support.
"Quick... run away..."
The monster behind him also appeared at this time.
Screams finally erupted in the banquet hall, and everyone rushed to get out.
Amidst the chaos, the man who had spoken earlier still sat there steadily, head lowered, shoulders shrugged, and then he couldn't suppress his laughter anymore: "Hahahahaha, come on, please me to your heart's content!"
"Penglai Academy? Hahahaha, I hope there will be more interesting toys this time."
The banquet hall was brightly lit, and everyone's movements froze, with expressions of fear frozen on their faces.
In the last second before he lost consciousness, a white feather appeared in Mo Xuanji's palm.
