School Day
A brand new day began with a message from Wuye. It was my second day in the dream world, and also the day of the "Online Classroom Opening Ceremony." Such large-scale events are very rare in the dream world, which shows how lucky I am. After making my bed and quickly washing up, I left the room.
Even at 7:30 in the morning, there was hardly anyone outside, yet Wu Ye was able to send me the message much earlier, showing his excellent early rising habit. Now, I need to find the location of "Sky Ladder High School" according to the map, so as not to keep Wu Ye waiting. "You're here. You found the place pretty quickly." Suddenly, Wu Ye appeared behind me and recognized me. When I arrived at the gate of Sky Ladder High School, I didn't find him immediately. I had assumed he would be wearing a down jacket like the first day I met him; I hadn't considered why he was wearing summer clothes today. As I pondered how to reply, he stared at me in shock, then sighed and said, "Remember to check the weather forecast before you go out next time. Don't rush. I think I mentioned yesterday that the weather changes in dreams..."
Unstable.
After listening to his words, I realized that I was the only one in the crowd wearing an outer garment.
I was wearing a jacket, so to avoid embarrassment, I had to take it off. Gradually, the flow of people...
More and more people gathered, and soon the area outside the school gate was packed with people, plus the already thirty-something crowd.
The sweltering heat made the area feel even hotter. Surprisingly, despite the current temperature at the school gate...
It was still closed, but no one around seemed bothered by the long wait.
Impatient, even if you're squeezed into the very middle of the crowd, you can only hear the faint whispers.
The footsteps, Wu Ye later told me, were actually not like that at first.
Sustained patience is perhaps the reason why most activities in dreams require queuing.
Therefore, just as living things adapt to nature, they will one day adapt to queuing.
To keep me from getting bored, Wuye told me a lot about dreams.
The interesting setting and his mastery of this place are something I have to admire.
Fang. A person who has lived here for a long time, did not feel offended by my unintentional offense.
Strange, he chose to do everything he could to help me integrate into this world quickly. I don't know him.
Whether he is that sincere to others, and whether he has anyone else by his side in his daily life, remains to be seen.
If I could, I would like to consider him my first friend.
"The opening ceremony is ready. Please enter the school in an orderly manner." This was announced by the event organizers.
At the command, the school gates finally opened, and people entered the school at a leisurely pace, then dispersed.
They sprouted and spread throughout every corner of the school. Only then did I truly see the real face of the entire school.
Before my eyes, all I could see was a staircase rising abruptly from the ground between the sports field and the dormitory.
It spirals upwards, reaching thousands of meters into the sky. Facing it is like a "city in the sky."
The structure, as explained by Wuye, is as follows:
"Sky Ladder High School is famous for its teaching area that is suspended in mid-air. Because of this..."
This design defies human perception, so it's understandable to find it strange at first glance.
"It's unusual, but perhaps after seeing it a few times, you'll get used to it."
To be honest, scenes like this used to only appear in my hazy dreams.
Compared to fear, there was more surprise, and now, the scene in the dream felt real.
It was presented before my eyes in a way that was both frightening and exciting.
Woolen cloth?
Amidst the laughter and conversation, people who had been touring the surroundings flocked towards the dormitory.
Upon seeing this, Wu Ye immediately pulled me into a less crowded elevator lobby. There were four elevators.
It was quickly filled to capacity, and then staff members next to the escalator flipped the main switch.
Four elevators ascended simultaneously, leading directly to the sky-high teaching area. I asked:
"If elevators exist, then what is the purpose of the Heavenly Ladder?"
Previously, the organizers of Sky Ladder High School aimed to cultivate perseverance in its students.
The spirit behind this design was to create a circular ladder to increase its length, in order to witness the blue sky.
The initial enthusiasm for forging ahead was unwavering. Later, due to the long distance, no one was willing to walk.
As it ascended, the elevator we see today was built, so the original sky ladder is now only for viewing.
Function.
Every school built in a dream has its own unique history and
The logo, and its enduring popularity, is why it remains so today.
The high school, Tianti High School, still looks brand new, just like when it was first built. The elevator...
As we ascended higher, Wu Ye, the others, and I gradually moved away from the ground.
To allow visitors to experience a panoramic view of the campus from above, the entire elevator...
It features a semi-transparent structure. Facing such a tall elevator, I closed my eyes.
Eyes trembling, trying to stop the body from shaking, this fear of looking down at the ground.
This was my first time experiencing the feeling of being high in the air.
The elevator stopped running, and we arrived at our destination—located at the sea.
At a height of 1,388 meters, the top of the elevator connects to...
A huge island, and in the very center of the island, three teaching buildings rise from the ground.
And so, it became another unknown part of Sky Ladder High School. At this time, others
Everyone was admiring the scenery around them with great interest, but I was impatient.
I wanted to enter the teaching building and listen to the sounds of classes. Regarding classes, I didn't...
I think this is something worth paying attention to; everything I've done before related to attending classes...
Those memories have now vanished from my mind, so what exactly caused it?
How can one get used to attending classes? There's no need to dwell on the past, no matter what hardships one has endured.
My life has been restarted, and I constantly remind myself to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past.
Creating pressure for yourself when there is no pressure. Your expression no longer downcast, your feet...
Stepping into the classroom, I found it nearly empty of students, and I began to wonder why.
It's not proper teaching.
"Sit down and wait for them to come in."
As Wu Ye greeted me, he had already sat down at the lectern.
I found an empty seat and sat down. Taking advantage of the low number of people, I reached out to...
Ye asked, "Since making a living has become unnecessary, what is the point of establishing a school?"
What is the meaning of this?
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. Today's visitors are just like you."
Newcomers who joined recently naturally need to take courses on the concept of dreams.
What I explained to you yesterday was only a part of the lesson, so pay attention.
"Um."
All the unknown mysteries will be reasonably solved after this class.
The explanation I just gave was definitely the last question I asked Wuye.
I'm worried that constantly asking questions will cause Wuye to lose his original patience.
My heart was so moved that after this class, I wanted to try to be truly independent.
At one point, the classroom was full of people, and the teacher who had been waiting outside also walked in.
Before he could even speak, the nearby students began to gossip.
Is he really a teacher?
She looks like she's not even twenty years old.
"Are you kidding me?"
In the entire classroom, besides myself, Wu Ye, and a female high school student in the corner...
Apart from Zhong Sheng, everyone else was filled with doubt and speculation, and I...
I'm not sure if I'm the only one who came here voluntarily and received guidance from others.
Those who are used to everything here, even the heated discussions at hand, are gradually getting used to it.
As was the norm, at least in their view, until the mystery was solved, everything was...
That's not normal.
"Quiet!"
As soon as the teacher gave the order, the people around stopped talking.
The room fell silent for a moment.
"Whether you care about my age or doubt this lesson..."
Whether it's true or not, we can discuss all the questions after this class.
Quantity. By the way, the knowledge learned in this lesson may influence your future...
"Life."
After explaining the pre-class requirements, he began to speak to me in a fluent accent.
They were giving lectures. I took out my prepared notebook, trying my best not to miss any information.
One key piece of information, and at the same time, make a list of the information the teacher mentioned that you already know.
Record the information and compare it with what Wu Ye said to obtain accurate information. Meanwhile, on the podium...
The teacher, who they said was no more than twenty years old, didn't seem to be teaching any particular kind of thing.
He spoke so hurriedly, putting down his pen and glancing back at us for a few seconds after each point.
It seemed as if they were deliberately waiting for us; meanwhile, they were also looking after the few students under the lectern who weren't paying attention.
He continued teaching as if nothing had happened. I felt that this was ultimately just a lesson...
It's a short, educational lesson, so from the teacher's perspective, it probably doesn't matter whether they listen or not.
I was so focused on listening to the teacher's analysis of the key points that I forgot I even came to school.
My true purpose, I glanced casually at Wuye's seat and found that he didn't...
He acted casually, yet he was also taking notes diligently, despite clearly possessing extensive knowledge.
He has a wealth of knowledge, yet he doesn't give up on consolidating it; he must have been a very...
Someone who loves learning.
"That's all for today, class dismissed."
At 10:40 a.m., the teacher announced the dismissal, and the students leisurely...
Stepping out of the classroom, compared to the atmosphere before class, there was much less debate, which also reflected...
This lesson had a profound impact on the students. In less than five minutes, only a handful remained in the classroom.
Wu Ye and I.
"You must have gained a lot."
"Um."
"This teacher is quite famous in this high school, and he teaches better than I do."
According to others, he has been here for over forty years.
Generally speaking, teachers must be at least in their early twenties, and the one just mentioned...
A teacher who looked no more than twenty years old was met with skepticism as soon as she entered the classroom.
What others take for granted, I firmly believe that one day they will change.
Existing views, but now we know new patterns.
The elevator touched the ground, the doors slowly opened, and a fleeting farewell ensued.
In the end, only a handful of scattered figures remained.
"Everyone really hates going to class," Wu Ye said, looking at the scattered crowd.
"Rather than saying, as newcomers, they haven't yet adapted to the unfamiliar environment."
It's the atmosphere, I guess.
"No matter what happens now, things will definitely get better in the future; just like you..."
Like this, from looking completely bewildered at sunrise yesterday to being utterly unharmed now, no...
Is it all a process of adaptation?
As he spoke, he patted my shoulder.
"I have things to do this afternoon, so please take care of yourself."
Watching Wuye walk out of the school gate, my heart remained unsettled for a long time. As an ordinary...
I have never been so highly regarded and expected of, and yet, Wu Ye not only failed to do so...
They acknowledge my weakness and still want me to change. I think, even if...
In the past, no one could have observed with such meticulous detail as him.
Test my life.
Not many people eat lunch at the school cafeteria; they probably all choose to go to...
Eat at a fairly proper restaurant. Honestly, the cafeteria food isn't bad either, and...
Much cleaner than outside, probably due to inherent differences in dreams, the use of food appears.
It's become polarized. The people who come here to eat, besides casual diners like myself...
There were also people, and a group of athletes, from their words...
It is known that when there are no scheduled classes, the on-site sports field of Tianti High School will be used for...
It became the venue for the daily afternoon games. As someone who loves campus life, I...
I couldn't contain my excitement any longer and was ready to watch the afternoon's matches.
The midday sun is dazzling no matter the season, and I hurried...
They quickly found a shady spot and sat down, as the competition wasn't scheduled to officially start until 3 PM.
In addition to the drowsiness I experienced after the meal, I inadvertently wandered into the crowd.
He fell asleep.
"There are fifteen minutes left before the start of the competition. Athletes, please get ready."
"Prepare well, and strive for even greater achievements!" The shrill broadcast woke up the person lying in the shade of the tree.
I was asleep. I opened my eyes, looked closely, and suddenly saw...
Many spectators, standing and sitting, are now casting their gazes in the direction of the athletes.
I picked up my phone, slowly stood up, and found myself standing directly in front of me...
A girl with her back to me, seemingly drawn to something, was holding a camera...
I stopped to take pictures. I didn't want to disturb her, but my view was blocked, so I didn't.
There was another way, so I tugged at her sleeve.
Excuse me, you're blocking my way, could you please move aside?
"Ah! I'm sorry... I saw you were sleeping... asleep, so..."
I didn't expect her to be so flustered, so flustered that her whole body was trembling.
To calm her down, I gestured for her to sit down and talk slowly. Regarding her, I still wanted to confirm...
Recognize one thing.
"Were you the high school student who sat in the corner of the classroom this morning?"
"Ah! How did you know?"
"This morning before class, the students were all noisy, but I noticed that only..."
You sat quietly in the corner.
"After all... this kind of unrest happens often, you get used to it."
Her voice was clear and crisp, but her speech was halting and intermittent; I wasn't sure if she...
She is good at communicating with others; without a doubt, she rarely speaks, so I only...
It's possible to temporarily avoid talking to her.
"Well, let's watch the game first."
The afternoon's matches were more exciting than ever, and the athletes'...
The shouts and the audience's encouragement brought the school's atmosphere to its peak, even to...
Even as evening approached, people remained enthusiastic. When I came to my senses, the sun had already set.
As the sun sets, the stadium is empty; it's time to leave.
While having dinner, I realized I had received a message from Wuye two hours earlier.
After making a few adjustments, I found my destination following the address he gave me; the surrounding area was full of streets.
The lamps, faintly visible beyond the railings, illuminated the fountain and a few fireflies. I followed...
As the road continued forward, they found Wu Ye standing on the edge of the railing, gazing at the sky thoughtfully.
I was about to say hello, but he saw me by chance and pulled me to his side.
"Look, the night sky is so beautiful tonight."
"Um."
How does it feel to live here?
"fine,"
He smiled knowingly, then asked, "What if this place isn't as you imagined?"
"Peace and harmony, will you still stay?"
"I believe that all the problems existing in this world will eventually be solved."
The problem is solved. Therefore, I don't care whether there are any hidden dangers in my current environment.
"If something unexpected happens, you're still here."
"Hahaha... What kind of person do you take me for?"
"What I mean is... with you here, at least I won't feel lonely."
Perhaps to change the subject, he glanced at his watch and said, "Go to sleep."
"Well, it's getting late."
"Yes, you too."
As I walked, his figure gradually blurred, until only the moonlight remained.
So I left with peace of mind, ending my day's journey, feeling truly free and at ease.
A carefree dream journey. Perhaps, just as Shunwuye suspected, this place is not...
Everything is peaceful and uneventful, at least for now. There's no need to overthink it.
Urgent, because I am no longer alone.
