After running three laps of morning exercises, everyone was groaning.
Mu Huan didn't feel anything, after all, he'd been much more tired than just three laps in the past. But why did everyone seem so tired today? Did they get too little sleep last night?
"Huanhuan! Aren't you tired?" Liang Jin panted beside her. Don't be fooled by Huanhuan's soft appearance. She is actually a tough girl at heart! Three laps, one lap is 400 meters. She must be exhausted!
Mu Huan walked over and supported Liang Jin: "You must be lacking exercise. Actually, I think three laps is pretty good. At least it's not too much or too little. I didn't feel very tired."
As soon as Liang Jin arrived, his eyes shot towards Mu Huan, staring so hard that he couldn't help swallowing.
"I just have a good physical condition, so I don't feel tired when running." Saying this should be able to recover some of the losses.
"Okay! Let's go have breakfast first, and then get ready for the first class." Liang Jin was supported by Mu Huan, looking like an old man.
"good!"
When Mu Huan and Liang Jin came back after breakfast, the classroom was already collapsed. Everyone, without exception, was lying on the table and taking a nap.
Mu Huan: No way, am I that tired?
Mu Huan wasn't the only one who found this strange. Liang Jin, too, found it odd. They'd never been this exhausted from morning exercises. Why were they all slumped over their desks today? Aren't they usually rushing through pre-class preparation for the first period?
"Cough cough!" Liang Jin coughed loudly!
However, no one in the classroom reacted at all.
Mu Huan: “…” Maybe the coughing sound wasn’t enough?
Liang Jin pulled the stool over and yanked it backwards, then sat on it and slammed the books onto the table. He had expected a few people to protest and ask for a quieter conversation, but they all slept like dead pigs, with no reaction at all.
"No way! These people are even weaker than me!" Liang Jin couldn't believe it.
Mu Huan: “…” Why does it feel like something is wrong with the development of the situation?
Soon, the bell for the first class rang. But the people lying on the desks still didn't react at all, only occasionally a few people whimpered a few times, and then lay back down to sleep.
"Oh my god! Aren't these good students afraid that Master Miejue will kill them? The first class is Master Miejue's class! They don't want to live anymore, right?" Liang Jin couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for them.
Mu Huan suggested: "Why don't we wake them up one by one? Otherwise, if we just make noise or call out, they might not react." He always felt that this matter was a little strange, but he just couldn't tell what was strange.
Liang Jin nodded. This was the only way so far.
"It just so happens that Nun Miejue always likes to be late, so let's wake them up first."
Then, Mu Huan and Liang Jin, two diligent little angels, began the task of waking up their classmates.
When I first woke them up, I was extremely reluctant, but when I heard that it was Master Miejue's class, I forced myself to be alert.
"Why do I feel particularly sleepy today?" A person stretched and then limply took out the Chinese textbook from the desk.
Although others didn't say anything, they were all wondering in their hearts, why do I always feel tired and want to sleep so much?
"Class is in session!" I heard the voice before I saw the person!
Throughout the entire Chinese class, almost no one answered questions. They all looked listless, staring at the blackboard and dozing off. Even when Nun Miejue repeatedly rapped the podium with a ruler, the audience still didn't react.
The bell for the end of get out of class rang soon. Before Master Miejue said that the get out of class was over, many people had already started to lie down on the tables one by one.
Nun Miejue: “…”
Liang Jin felt inexplicably happy. So many good students who usually loved to study were actually dozing off today. She, who was not fond of studying, was actually holding a book and listening with great interest!
Nun Miejue had no choice but to walk out of the classroom angrily!
"Huanhuan, why do you all look like they haven't gotten enough sleep? Could they have done something late at night without telling us?" Liang Jin joked. Anyway, they were all sleeping and no one was listening to her!
Mu Huan observed the scene before him, feeling a vague suspicion. Previously, while browsing through historical texts within the Ghost Clan, he had come across a type of evil spirit called the Dream-Eating Spirit. These spirits appeared at night, devouring the dreams of those who slept. This disturbed sleep caused by the devouring of their dreams, leaving them feeling listless the next day. This continued depletion of energy and vitality could even lead to death in severe cases.
Mu Huan thought that the scene before him was indeed like a dream being eaten by a dream-eating evil spirit. However, Mu Huan was not completely sure whether it was the dream-eating evil spirit causing trouble or whether these people were simply having trouble sleeping.
"Ajin, I need to go to the bathroom. Please come with me."
If you see other classes passing by with the same problem, then it's definitely a dream-eating evil spirit. After all, if one class is sleepy, it's already surprising, but if everyone is like this, it will probably cause panic.
"Okay! I'll go with you!"
The two of them went out, and sure enough, every single person in the classroom they passed was sleeping on their desks.
Liang Jin smiled: "I thought it was only our class that was like this, but I didn't expect other classes to be like this too. What were they doing so sleepy so late at night? I'm not usually like this, okay?"
Mu Huan frowned slightly, feeling that the situation was getting a little serious.
But why didn't she notice anything last night? She obviously didn't sleep that deeply. Logically, she should have been able to sense the presence of an evil spirit the moment it appeared.
Unless... there's someone behind the scenes helping them, or manipulating them. If that's the case, then the situation is truly serious. Evil spirits are already difficult to deal with, but if there's someone behind the scenes, wouldn't it be even more difficult?
"Huanhuan!" Liang Jin waved his hands in front of Mu Huan.
"ah?"
"You're still here. I thought you were going to fall asleep like them."
Mu Huan looked at Liang Jin with a puzzled look. Why wasn't Ah Jin affected? Could it be because Ah Jin was tainted with her aura? But that didn't make sense. She had interacted with other people last night, too. Logically, no one in their class should be in this state.
"I was just wondering why so many people in the class suddenly had the same condition. Could they be sick?"
Liang Jin touched the back of his head: "No way, Tongyi has narcolepsy?" Is their fate so deep?
