Chapter 29: Ghost Story Middle School 11
The system screamed incessantly: "What are you doing! After the editor was restarted, the Kaidan Middle School only has fixed venue rules. You can obviously pass the level if you stay alive for a few more days!!! Ahhhhh, put your things down!!!"
How could Qiao Song listen to it? After the editor was connected, all information had to be checked and updated based on the speed of the brain. So while the system was in a state of incompetence and rage, she had already quickly written more than a dozen new rules.
The rules came into effect and all 30 sculptures in his hands disappeared.
Qiao Song was still a little reluctant: "What a pity, only 60 seconds."
If she had another 60 seconds, it would be enough for her to write hundreds of new ghost stories and kill the koi on the spot.
The system heard the alarm of the copy mutation in the background, and it felt like the sky was falling: "Do you know what you have done! This copy is almost full of holes. If you do this, you will become a ghost story for all the teachers and students in the school!!!"
Qiao Song clicked his tongue and said, "The editor of your main system had a problem and that fish took advantage of it. What does it have to do with me?"
She's just a kind player who helps them fix the editor.
Next, let her see whether the wish star card for repairing the editor is worth using.
At this moment, the koi carp that was dueling with the white dog seemed to have been drained of some kind of essence in an instant, and the golden color on its body immediately faded.
After a few moments, it now looked more like an edible ordinary carp than a koi.
But the dog on the opposite side was also shrinking in size.
After the editor is restarted, all rule legends except those in fixed places will become invalid immediately, the strength bonus of the dog from the night patrol will become invalid, and the buff brought to the fish by the wish legend will also disappear.
But the only difference is that there is a tree in the fish's hand, a tree that collects a lot of wishing coins.
Qiao Song immediately called Tang Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, destroy the tree! Now!"
Tang Xiaoxiao was still working with gloves on. She answered the phone under the gaze of the giant dog. Before she could react to what Qiao Song meant, she saw the big dog who had been monitoring her became very strange, and the flesh on its body trembled and began to shrink back.
The hairless dogs began to shrink in size.
"Tell the dog that the ghost story will be restarted soon, but the coins left by the fish will not disappear. Hurry up and cut down the tree. I will help you collect the coins and make sure that the fish doesn't get them!"
After saying this, Qiao Song immediately noticed water splashing behind her. The copy BOSS that had turned back into an ordinary carp had discovered her.
But the big dog that was able to hold the opponent back before, now has lost its status as a night patroller and can no longer hold the fish.
Qiao Song observed carefully first: "Without the wishing fountain water, your recovery ability has really decreased greatly."
She bravely jumped down from the rock wall, and a sledgehammer immediately appeared in her hand.
"Comrade Big Dog over there, go help your companion bite the tree down. I'll hold her back here first!"
The dog, who had already realized the huge changes that had taken place in the Ghost Story Middle School, quickly understood what Qiao Song said and ran out in a few leaps, while the fish was obviously going crazy.
"You--damn human!!!"
The big fish opened its sharp mouth and tried to bite Qiao Song, but it only bit a mouthful of screws.
Qiao Song swung the sledgehammer in his hand, spun it a few times in the air, and then hit the fish head.
Pound! After a loud bang, the carp swung its tail in pain, creating a large splash of water.
The brutal beating, like killing fish in a market, made the carp realize that after losing the power bonus of the spring water, it could actually be hurt by an ordinary human.
Now this pond water is no longer useful, and turning into a carp is disadvantageous. As her thoughts raced, the scales on her body quickly fell off, and the shape of her body was also changing, but this time the falling scales would no longer turn into round coins, but just ordinary smelly scales.
Seeing that the fish in the pond began to emit white light and change its form, Qiao Song did not hesitate and turned around and ran.
She was not stupid. Having read the ghost story records, she already knew that this guy obviously had many souls scattered around the campus, and he turned into a fish just to better absorb the power of wishes in the pool water.
Now that the power of wishing is gone, this guy is probably going to come ashore and cause trouble.
The fish behind really began to transform into amphibians and tried to climb onto the shore. First, limbs grew around the fish's body, and then it tried to straighten up step by step.
Seeing this, Qiao Song swung the small hammer behind him as if it was free. The hit rate was quite high. From a distance, he hit the fish head with a bang and the fish bounced out. Then he hit the fish head with another bang and the fish bounced out.
This made the fish that had changed its form feel insulted and became even more angry.
Qiao Song took this opportunity to decisively climb up the wall to find the direction. Soon he heard a few dogs barking nearby, and Tang Xiaoxiao's voice: "Sister Qiao Song, to the right, look down, jump down quickly!"
In another small valley over the rock wall was the location of the former wishing tree. The two dogs had already met up and were scratching the ground and biting the tree trunk desperately.
Qiao Song's ears twitched, and she heard the sound of some creature climbing up the rocks behind her. Without looking back, she threw out a handful of nails and a hammer, disturbing the other party for a second or two, and then jumped down directly from a height of nearly 100 meters.
With a plop, a geography book of suitable thickness caught her in mid-air.
Tang Xiaoxiao quickly controlled another thick English book and threw it behind Qiao Song, knocking the strange lizard-like creature behind him back several hundred meters.
The geography book that came to pick him up slowly landed, and the next second after Qiao Song flipped out of the book, he rushed to the so-called wishing tree.
"Don't bite the tree trunk first, bite off the branches I'm using to cover the net bag!"
As she spoke, countless small white net bags appeared at her hands. One net bag directly covered a pile of coins, just like covering the heavy apples on the tree. The dog took two seconds to react and really did what she said.
Branches are much thinner than trunks and are more likely to break.
The branch with the first string of coins hanging on it was bitten off, and then a large bunch of coins along with the net bag were collected by Qiao Song into his toolbox.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but after such a large number of wishing coins entered the toolbox, she felt that the temperature of her body dropped a little.
At this moment, an extremely angry roar came from the cliff.
The fish-headed person, who had successfully grown legs, jumped down directly from the cliff. In her semi-human form, her combat power was greatly enhanced. Tang Xiaoxiao could only use both books to hit the opponent with both hands.
"Sister Qiao Song, hurry up! I feel like this guy is getting stronger!"
Qiao Song now feels a little regretful that there is no knife in his toolbox. It is really not convenient to use a hammer to hit branches!
Fortunately, the two dogs were very powerful and cooperated with Qiao Song to bite off all the branches in the net bag in minutes. After they fell to the ground, Qiao Song put them all back into the toolbox.
At this moment, Tang Xiaoxiao couldn't hold on any longer and yelled, "I can't stand it anymore! Run!"
She smashed the last book in her hand, but this time it could only push the humanoid monster with a fish head back a few meters.
The big hairless dog closest to her reacted very quickly, turned around, bit Tang Xiaoxiao's collar and threw her onto its back, while the big white dog also bit Qiao Song's collar.
At this moment, Qiao Song had just collected all the net bags filled with coins in one breath. He didn't know if it was because the yin energy was too strong, but he felt like he had put too many inhuman items in his toolbox, and his whole body became cold.
She was thrown onto the dog's back and could see that the fish-headed man did not try to chase them anymore. Instead, he ran towards his own wishing tree like crazy.
What’s the point of keeping the tree if all the stacks of coins with people’s names written on them are gone?
Qiao Song soon found out the answer. Although he had no more coins, the fish-headed man was still frantically biting the remaining tree trunk with his serrated fish mouth, as if he wanted to swallow up the only remaining essence of the tree into his stomach.
This guy is not willing to let go of any nutrient now. After he finishes eating this tree, he will probably come to kill them.
"Let's go to the school. Those weird talk places with fixed rules are safe. Let's go there!"
The dog seemed to understand what she said, and perhaps in order to find the coins later, it ran down the hill very obediently.
Under Qiao Song's guidance, the dog led them directly to the cafeteria door. Qiao Song smashed the chain with a hammer, pushed open the glass door and walked in.
Although Tang Xiaoxiao didn't know the specific situation, she was still a little frightened when she saw the sign on the wall saying "No Noise Allowed".
"Sister Qiao Song, why are we in the cafeteria? Aren't we not allowed to speak loudly here..."
"It's okay, I can tell you now that I have erased that rule."
"ah?????"
Qiao Song calmly walked to the cafeteria and searched around, and finally found a small golden sculpture in a corner.
"Take this and put it on the table, so that fish-headed man can't get in."
Tang Xiaoxiao was still standing there stupidly. What did you mean the rules were erased by me?
She looked at the sculpture and then at Qiao Song.
"Sister Qiao Song, isn't this...?"
Qiao Song paused for a moment: "Well, this is a carrier of a new strange story. Anyway, it is here to catch that fish."
Qiao Song asked her to look at it herself, then picked up his phone and called Huangmao.
After taking the sculpture in her hand, Tang Xiaoxiao discovered that there were a few lines of small red words on her identity card which had been untouched for a long time, and the content made her dumbfounded.
【Strange Stories about Sculptures in Strange Stories Middle School】
1. No fish or tree-related creatures will appear near the special sculptures of the Ghost Story Middle School.
2. Any physical attack near the special sculpture of Kaidan Middle School will directly defeat the Kaidan itself.
3. Near the special sculpture of the Ghost Story Middle School, any form of ghost can be transformed into a new ghost story creature on the spot due to strong emotions.
4. There are 30 special ghost story sculptures in Ghost Story Middle School, scattered in the fixed rules of the ghost story places. Once the statue is found, the first three effects will take effect immediately.
Putting aside the first one, the next two are simply bug-level settings!
Tang Xiaoxiao read it several times and found something very strange.
"Is this considered a weird rule? I don't think I saw anything targeting players?"
Qiao Song looked like he was asking, "I wrote these rules. Why would I target the players?"
She took this opportunity to send a few voice messages to the group and explained the whole story to Tang Xiaoxiao.
Now, no other players will join this copy of Ghost Story Middle School, and several people have been communicating in the group. After knowing what happened, the yellow-haired man quickly went down the mountain. The fat man used the stone puppet to lock up the crazy Wang Xiang, and now he is escaping down the mountain with the yellow-haired man under the guidance of the security guard.
AAA Haircut and Blow-drying Card 20% off: I just heard a strange roar, is it the mermaid you mentioned that has come ashore? ! ! !
Fat Joe Pottery Gallery: How can that guy be called a mermaid! ! That's a fishman, okay! ! !
AAA haircut and blowdrying card 20% off: What's the difference? They are all yu
The two men seemed to be still running for their lives, and the words they sent afterwards became garbled characters.
Joe: The ghost stories on campus have been restarted. Now only ghost story rules will appear in fixed indoor places. You find these places and then dig out a sculpture from inside.
AAA Haircut and Blow-drying Card with 20% Discount: But there is only one public toilet left near us!
Qiao Song thought back to the ghost story logs he had read, and it seemed that the toilet was also a fixed place in the rules of ghost stories.
She sent the other party the bathroom rules she remembered.
Although it tastes strong, it’s okay as long as it can save your life.
Qiao: Remember to find the sculpture, otherwise I will not be responsible if the fish get into it.
AAA didn't say anything after getting his hair cut and blow dried. But after a while, the fat man spoke.
Qiao Pang Ceramics Museum: We went into the toilet. Huangmao fought with the other party for a while and got a little injured. I have now found the sculpture, and the fishman can't get in.
The fat man and the yellow-haired man were leaning against the sink in the men's bathroom. The yellow-haired man had a bruise on his arm, a long wound left by the fish. He was using a healing tool with a distressed look on his face.
"Luckily this isn't a bald guy, otherwise the hair dye wouldn't be effective and I wouldn't be able to run away."
Thinking of this, his face was filled with pain again.
"This dungeon is such a waste. I have used so many props. How can such a primary dungeon produce so many weird stories and a boss of this level? It's only the first few days. Why did this mermaid go berserk?"
The fat man corrected him again in annoyance: "It's a fishman. If you can't say it's a fish-headed monster, you can say it's okay."
As a ceramic artist, he was still holding tightly in his hand the small sculpture he had made a few days ago.
"I never thought that a sculpture I casually made could turn into something so awesome that it can even bypass the dungeon boss. No, Sister Qiao is the best."
After all, when he made it, it was just an ordinary clay doll.
Huangmao agreed.
The fat man turned his head to glance at the giant clay doll next to him. Wang Xiang was trapped inside and was no longer moving.
The security guard who couldn't speak was gesturing to him, as if he wanted to leave and go back to the security room.
Qiao Song mentioned in the group that the fat security guard had a good relationship with the dog. When the dog got out of control, the security guard seemed to be able to calm it down in some way.
The night security guard is most likely the parent of a missing student, who came to the school specifically to apply for the job, but for some unknown reason had his tongue pulled out and he cannot speak.
After getting Qiao Song's permission, the fat man told the other party that there might be a sculpture in the security room.
The security guard was stunned for a while and then nodded. He borrowed the fat man's mobile phone to type and said that he would take a look at it after returning and put the sculpture in the security room.
Although there were street lights outside, the security guard still turned on his flashlight. The flashlight seemed to be some special prop that could protect his safety when he walked back at night.
When the fish-headed monster first appeared, it was this security guard who appeared out of nowhere, who controlled the fish-headed man with a flashlight, and finally dragged them away.
"The security guards with control tools couldn't hold out for long against the fish-headed monster. This boss is really strong. How come he's even stronger on land than in the water?"
Huangmao was worried that his remaining props would not be enough to pass this copy.
"What are they saying now? If we hide in the bathroom all night, will the mermaid go back at dawn?"
The fat man was too lazy to correct him. Instead, he felt a lot more at ease when looking at the sculpture in his hand.
"Sister Qiao said in the group that the main part of this dungeon is still a middle school. Murlocs are not only bosses, but also extraordinary ghost stories. They probably won't appear in front of students during the day. And this is only the third day. Her hunting us down directly doesn't match the difficulty of the game."
At this point he also sighed and felt that the rewards for completing the game this time would be very generous.
After Huangmao bandaged the wound, he muttered, "I hope so."
He came out of the toilet and poked his head to look outside. The fishman who was helpless and furious just now was no longer outside.
Huh?
He noticed that the roof of a familiar building appeared not far across from the toilet.
Thinking that Sister Qiao seemed quite interested in this, Huangmao asked again in the group.
AAA Haircut and Blow-drying Service Card with 20% Discount: Sister Qiao, there seems to be a convenience store 800 meters away from our toilet.
The other party replied very quickly.
Qiao: The supply point for daily necessities in the copy?
AAA haircut and blow-drying card with 20% off: Yes, but the copy is closed now. We agreed to replenish the stock every 7 days, and I don’t know if the replenisher will be able to come on the 7th day. I can bring you whatever you want to buy.
Qiao Song gave a malicious smile.
Type the next sentence slowly.
Qiao: It’s okay. I’ll find time to go there myself tomorrow.
Tang Xiaoxiao, who was standing by, felt that her sister was planning something sinister again when she saw Qiao Song's expression.
Two sculptures have been found so far, and the third one may be found soon in the security booth.
Qiao Song entered these three locations into his memo.
She had already written down all the relevant information about this fixed-location rule when she was browsing the editor. Now it was very easy for them to pass this copy.
The wish star card was well worth using. No wonder the system said that even if she used the precious item, the main system would not give her any compensation. After all, just being exposed to this editor for a short 60 seconds brought her such great benefits, which was no different from directly opening a backdoor.
She sent several voice messages in the group.
"The difficulty of this dungeon has been lowered. After it becomes impossible to make wishes, the rate at which new ghost stories appear in the school will decrease. As long as players follow the rules in a few fixed places and survive for four or five days, they should be able to clear the dungeon."
But she doesn't just want to pass the level.
"Since the fish turned the sacrificed people into coins and hung them on the tree, it means that she has a habit of hoarding food. Although we have collected all the wishing coins, there may be backup resources she has hoarded in other corners of the school for promotion."
"So, I plan to let this fire in the school burn on her."
"Do you want to join?"
After a few seconds of silence in the group, it suddenly became heated, and everyone who could speak expressed their desire to join in the fun.
Huangmao was in a very high spirit. After all, he had lost so many items in this broken copy. He had to make it back!
Qiao Song then posted the names of all the other fixed places in the school that she knew, including the rules that needed to be followed there.
It’s a pity that the editor has been restarted now, and this sculpture can only be effective in a fixed place. But it doesn’t matter. Qiao Song doesn’t want to kill the fish with the sculpture, but to let the sculpture influence other students and let them avenge themselves.
After arranging tomorrow's plans, everyone prepared to rest for a night in the area protected by the sculpture.
It’s just that Huangmao and the others can only sleep in the toilet, while Qiao Song and the others choose to sleep in the cafeteria.
The reason why the staff dormitory was not chosen was to avoid the fish-headed monster's soul from appearing in the dormitory corridor in a sleepwalking manner. After all, she was neither a fish nor a tree in that state. Qiao Song did not want to gamble whether the first rule of the sculpture ghost story would take effect, so it was safer to place it in a place with a wide view like the cafeteria.
"Oh, Xiaoxiao, tomorrow is the last day of the exam week. Although wishing coins are no longer useful, fixed places still have to follow fixed rules. So you should take the exam well tomorrow and abide by the exam rules. After the exam, we will go look for Xiaoni."
That guy has been missing from this dungeon for so long, I wonder if he's in hiding.
There were two big dogs squatting in the cafeteria at this time. After Qiao Song finished working on the sculpture, he began to solve the problems of the two dogs.
"You two are looking for 'Wang Simiao', right?"
Qiao Song stood calmly in front of the two big dogs.
After the reboot of the ghost story, the dogs' acquired ghost powers were also erased, but they still look huge now. I wonder if it's because the dogs once devoured many people who wandered at night.
Since the dog put those guys in the garbage station, maybe this can also be considered a kind of coin?
Thinking of this, Qiao Song first made a request: "I can find the coin with Wang Simiao's name on it, but I hope you will promise me that you will hand over those people in the garbage station to me for disposal."
The two dogs looked at each other and quickly agreed.
Locking people in the garbage station is just a way to weaken Yu. From what they have seen just now, the dogs have already discovered that Qiao Song's purpose is purer than theirs. She wants to kill Yu directly.
This is something the guys have been dreaming about day and night, and have tried countless times but have never really succeeded, but they think this player might be able to do it.
After getting a positive answer, Qiao Song took out several large net bags full of coins from the toolbox, sensed it, and quickly began to grope in one of the net bags.
Soon, she held a small and exquisite wishing coin in her palm. When she turned it over, she found a name engraved on the back.
"Wang Simiao"
The two dog heads came closer in an instant and sniffed again without any certainty.
Will a wishing coin with a name engraved on it also have the flavor of the soul?
Sour, transparent, ordinary, with a bit of dust and sunshine, and a sweet taste.
That is the unique smell belonging to a girl named Wang Simiao.
In just a moment, the two big dogs were sure that this was it.
They had been searching for so long that they had even forgotten who it belonged to. But after seeing the coin, those things that had been erased by the rules seemed to be restored again.
The rebooted Ghost Story Editor weakened their abilities and deleted some of the effects left by the wishing tree and wishing well.
But fortunately, they remembered who this was.
This is their Misery.
She is not noticeable in the crowd, but she is also their precious little one.
A large drop of transparent liquid fell on the ground, followed by two drops and three drops. The two dogs' tears began to flow uncontrollably.
The vague but firm pronunciation emerged little by little.
"Think, Miao."
"Wang, Si, Miao."
"Grandpa and grandma found you."
An old voice came from the mouth of the skinless old dog. He approached gently, unable to believe that his beloved granddaughter had turned into a tiny coin.
When Qiao Song and the other two dogs were almost calmed down, he asked them again: "Actually, I have a method that may give Wang Simiao a chance to reappear in another form, just like you two..."
The two dogs turned their heads immediately, and the big hairless dog stood up and stared at her intently.
Qiao Song raised his head and looked at him without fear.
"I want her to become a strange story. Or rather, I want all the coins here to become new strange stories, so that all the victims of the wishing well and wishing tree will have a chance."
A chance to wield a knife against an enemy.
[The third story about the sculptures of the Kaidan Middle School: Near the special sculptures of the Kaidan Middle School, any form of ghost can transform into a new Kaidan creature on the spot due to strong emotions]
Doesn’t that fish love to stir up fights between classmates and make them sacrifice each other?
When all the resentful people can be turned into ghost stories, when they swing knives at fish, and when a hundred demons parade at night, can the fish-man still laugh?
"The new sculpture story of Kaidan Middle School can do this. To do this, I need to find the remaining 27 sculptures scattered in all the fixed places in this school."
"We, will help you." The skinless old dog opened his mouth.
He gently nudged the shiny little coin on the table with his wet nose.
The little granddaughter who was obedient but would occasionally lose her temper and like to act coquettishly and call him grandpa, has now become like this, cold and heartless, with only the coin with its name on it.
"As long as Si Miao comes back, anything is fine."
Although he and his wife are just two old dogs, they can be very useful dogs and are willing to eat fish and pick fish bones.
Qiao Song: "Okay, let's let the fishman that came ashore go crazy for a while tonight, and we'll go and find all the sculptures tomorrow."
"When the time comes, let's have a grand Night Parade of One Hundred Demons at Kaidan High School."
To crown the fish, we offer the entire campus’s worth of will-o’-the-wisp fireworks.
