100 Xiyue High School 21
◎Dead◎
Another player died in front of everyone's eyes, and everyone's scalps tingled.
Chu Huang used water to put out the flames on the man's body, but it was too late. The man's entire body was charred and he had no breath of life.
The man's companions were terrified, "Why did he die?! We didn't do anything! Why did the Pen Fairy kill him!"
Chu Huang felt very sad. This team was also members of their guild, but he failed to protect his companions and watched them burn to death.
He clenched his fists to hide his sadness. "What did you four do after the game? Tell me everything."

Lin Qiu's team of four did not stay on campus and went straight back to the girls' dormitory. The dormitory is an enclosed space with a small space. If there is an emergency, the four of them can immediately protect each other, so they decided to spend the whole day in the dormitory.
The four of them sat on their beds and chatted in a relaxed atmosphere. When they were talking about acts of death, a scream came from outside the window.
The four of them looked at each other and immediately got out of bed and walked to the window. The window faced south, and to the south was the school's grove. In the first two days after arriving at Xiyue High School, she often saw strange students walking in the woods.
But today all the students disappeared, and there is no way the players would go to the grove. Uninhabited places are most likely to be dangerous, and the players are very cautious about their lives.
Lin Qiu frowned. Which player who was looking for death went to the grove? She opened the curtains a little and looked down. Through the interlaced tree trunks and shadows, she saw a tall man leaning against a big tree.
She couldn't see the man's expression clearly on the third floor, and Lin Qiu felt a chill in her heart. Even though she couldn't see the man's expression clearly, she knew that the matter was not simple. For example, the man's hands were bent in a reverse position to hug the tree, which was not something a normal person's bone structure could do.
"Qiuqiu...his feet..." Xiaohua's voice trembled: "His feet are not on the ground!"
Lin Qiu's pupils trembled. Xiao Hua was right. The man was hanging in the air, his body hugging the tree in a strange posture, as if... someone was pulling his limbs, so the man screamed in pain.
Then an even more horrifying scene appeared. The man's body was pulled higher and higher by something invisible, and rose along the tree trunk to a level with the third floor.
Lin Qiu was finally able to see the expression on the man's face. His eyes were wide open, and his face, distorted with pain, was filled with deep fear.
With a "crack", the man's two arms drooped limply from the tree, and something invisible broke the man's bones as if playing a prank, making a crackling sound. Finally, it was the man's head. The man's head slowly turned backwards, from 45 degrees to 90 degrees, and then to 180 degrees. His head was forcibly bent to the other side of the body.
During the whole process, the man kept letting out heart-wrenching screams and cries for help. Lin Qiu and the other three who watched the entire process were already pale.
"Sister Qiu, I'm going to drink some water." The girl who spoke was called Zhang Yunxin. She seemed frightened and spoke in a very low voice.
Lin Qiu hummed and continued to look at the man. The man on the tree was completely motionless, his head drooped on his shoulders and he had lost all signs of life. The next second, his body fell to the mud.
The grove was filled with falling leaves, and the green leaves fell on the man's face, limbs, and torso. In a moment, the man's body was buried in the green leaves.
Lin Qiu felt mixed emotions, it turned out that death was only three stories away from him.
You could hear a pin drop in the dormitory, except for the sound of Zhang Yunxin gulping down water.
Suddenly Xiaohua's nose twitched: "What's that smell? What's burnt in our dormitory?"
There was indeed a burnt smell in the dormitory. Lin Qiu said unhappily, "Yun Xin, are you burning something?"
Zhang Yunxin didn't say anything, she continued drinking water.
Lin Qiu turned to look at her: "I'm asking you a question?"
After turning around, Lin Qiu saw the most horrifying scene in her life. She shuddered violently and felt all the hair on her body stand up, leaving only her pair of terrified eyes moving.
"What happened to Qiuqiu?" Xiaohua asked as she turned around, "Ah! Ah! Ah!" The next second she saw Zhang Yunxin, she screamed, her legs went limp and she fell to the ground.
The burnt smell came from Zhang Yunxin. She was holding a kettle and drinking water continuously. Black smoke kept coming out of her throat while she was drinking.
Her throat began to deform, the skin outside her throat turned red, and the flesh in her throat slowly burned from the inside, revealing a bloody hole. The water she drank flowed from the hole in her throat onto the ground.
"Yunxin, your throat!" Lin Qiu took two steps at a time and snatched Zhang Yunxin's water bottle. The kettle fell to the ground and the water spilled all over the floor.
"Sizzle... Sizzle..." Lin Qiu looked at the floor woodenly. For some reason, the floor that was splashed with water was emitting bursts of black smoke.
Xiaohua covered her mouth and exclaimed: "What Yunxin drank was not water! It was sulfuric acid!" Because she saw the water spilled on an iron spoon, and the spoon turned into a ball of black residue in a few seconds.
Lin Qiu finally reacted. She said in disbelief, "How could there be sulfuric acid in our dormitory!"
A dense mass of fear surged into everyone's heart. Drinking sulfuric acid in the weird game would surely lead to death. The high corrosiveness of sulfuric acid would corrode all of Zhang Yunxin's internal organs. How could a person with so many holes in his internal organs survive?
Zhang Yunxin died quietly. She slept on the floor of the dormitory with extreme unwillingness in her pupils.
The sudden change made Xiaohua's nose sour. "When did she bring sulfuric acid into the dormitory? We are together all the time, and I have never seen her bring anything back."
Did Zhang Yunxin really bring the sulfuric acid back? Or was the sulfuric acid always in their dormitory, or was the sulfuric acid put into their dormitory by someone else?
Lin Qiu is more inclined to the first and third ideas, but one thing is certain, they are in a dangerous situation and perhaps they will be the next.
"Yun Xin committed an act of death." Lin Qiu figured it out. Sulfuric acid was not important, and the way of death was not important. There was only one possibility for death - the act of death by the Pen Fairy.
Xiao Hua leaned against the wall and said in shock, "Impossible! If Yun Xin committed a death act, what about us?"
Lin Qiu revealed the cruel truth: "It means that we have also committed the act of death."
She immediately decided to cooperate with Sang Mian and share information. Only through cooperation could the real cause of death be found out.
Lin Qiu took one last look at Zhang Yunxin's body and left the dormitory with the two of them.

In the sports equipment room, Sang Mian did not notice anything unusual after listening to the deceased's companion's itinerary. Similar to the woman who jumped from the building, the deceased also suddenly became abnormal and ignored her companion's help and committed suicide.
She scratched her head in annoyance, unable to find any useful clues. Judging from the current deaths, the Pen Fairy was killing people indiscriminately.
At this time, the cafeteria auntie appeared quietly, and stuffed the dead body into the bucket in full view of everyone. But this time she did not leave. The auntie found an open space and sat down, staring at everyone with her gray eyes.
Everyone was frightened by the look in the aunt's eyes. Xia Qing said, "Let's go. This place is really unlucky."
Chu Huang had wanted to leave a long time ago. He held his companion's arm and walked towards the dormitory. As he walked, he couldn't help but look back at the aunt.
As if they had telepathic connection, the old lady's eyes met his and she slowly smiled at him.
"Oh shit!" Chu Huang shuddered and walked faster.
Zhou Jiayi sighed: "Let's go to the dormitory to see what's going on. There are quite a lot of players returning to the dormitory."
It was the first time that Sang Mian felt helpless in the copy. She had so many props but none of them could be used. The three of them followed Zhou Jiayi forward dejectedly.
After walking for two minutes, Zhou Jiayi turned around and asked, "Where's my brother?" His brother hadn't said a word the whole way. How could Zhou Jianyi keep silent until now? This was abnormal.
Sang Mian asked weakly, "What happened to Zhou Jianyi?"
When Zhou Jia turned around and saw his brother, he felt his heart stop beating. His annoying brother was standing in the sports equipment room with a brand new bucket of gasoline in his hand.
Zhou Jian opened the gasoline and poured gas over his head. He felt his pockets but couldn't find the lighter, so he rummaged around the equipment room with stiff hands and feet.
"Sang Mian...save my brother!" Zhou Jiayi's tone was filled with fear and terror, and a trembling that he himself did not even notice.
Sang Mian was also anxious, "Don't panic, he doesn't have a lighter, let's go save him now!"
Under the gray sky, the cafeteria lady tremblingly took out a lighter from her pocket and tried to hand it to Zhou Jianyi. At the same time, the door of the equipment room moved, and the invisible demon slowly closed the door, intending to isolate Zhou Jianyi from the world.
Zhou Jiayi rushed into the equipment room with all his strength. This journey was a race with death. If he won, he would save his brother, but if he lost, he would lose the meaning of living.
Sang Mian shouted and summoned his Green Dragon Crescent Blade and rushed towards the cafeteria auntie. He had to stop the auntie before Zhou Jianyi got the lighter and absolutely could not let the flame touch Zhou Jianyi.
No one around her can die.
When the Green Dragon Crescent Blade chopped off the old lady's arm, Sang Mian finally felt relieved. Zhou Jiayi dragged his brother out of the equipment room at the last second before the door closed.
Xia Qing and Bai Tang's faces turned pale. It was too thrilling! If Sang Mian and Zhou Jia had been a second late, Zhou Jianyi would have died. It was really a fight with the god of death.
"Sister Sang is so fast..." Xia Qing opened her mouth slightly: "I declare that Sister Sang can participate in the Olympics."
Bai Tang pulled Xia Qing and said, "Come on, go check if Zhou Jianyi is injured. If he is, get him treated immediately."
Xia Qing nodded hurriedly: "Leave it to me."
Sang Mian panted, one hand on her waist, and with the other hand she pointed her Qinglong Yanyue Sword at the cafeteria lady: "Damn it, I knew you were not a good person! So you were waiting to collect the body!" She waved the knife and said viciously: "Are you going to die? Tell me! How did you know he was going to commit suicide?"
The auntie in the cafeteria covered her arms and screamed "Yiyaya". The sound was so unbearable to hear, it was so rough and hoarse like the howling of a demon.
Sang Mian raised the knife expressionlessly: "If you keep crying, I'll cut off your tongue."
The cafeteria lady stopped crying. It seemed that intimidation was effective. Sang Mian thought that cruelty was more effective in dealing with weirdness. She asked, "How do you know he wants to commit suicide?"
"Giggle...Giggle..." The old lady laughed for no apparent reason. Her old yellow teeth, which were almost lost, were dangling on her gums, and she suddenly stopped laughing.
The air froze, and the cafeteria lady immediately raised her one arm and pointed at Zhou Jianyi: "It's really lively around him, but... it's a pity... you can't see it."
Sang Mian clenched his fists: "Speak human language!" She hated the weirdness of keeping people in suspense the most. Couldn't she just say it nicely?
The cafeteria lady's smile became more and more exaggerated, and the corners of her mouth even stretched to the back of her ears. She yelled at everyone: "He told me to do it! He will die! You can't stop him! You will all die!"
Sang Mian rolled up his sleeves: "Xiaoqing, Tangtang, help me pull out her tongue, today I will teach her the way of trickery!"
