Chapter 90 Like Plasticine
They told Lin Xi with their eyes: They wanted to eat it, they wanted to eat it so much, they wanted to eat it so much.
Lin Xi took a step closer to the iron fence, and the children followed suit. In the end, they stared at each other in silence, separated by the fence and the wall. The children, still clearly still thinking about Lin Xi's question, "Do you want to eat?" They were the first to break the silence, "Sister, can you give us a bite?"
Wow, they all have such sweet mouths.
Lin Xi looked at them, then at Shen Sangning behind her. Just in case, she glanced at the fence again, wanting to see if there were any rules posted on it, such as "Do not put your hands inside the fence", but she didn't see such a rule, so the danger was temporarily over.
Probably no one in this world would think of reaching their hand inside the fence of an elementary school.
After hesitating for a while, Lin Xi said, "Didn't your teacher tell you not to eat food given by strangers?"
This kind of oral but public agreement should also be a relevant rule. But the child ghosts all shook their heads: "No, no."
Indeed, this world isn't like the real world. Eating something given by someone else will cause a rash. After confirming that no relevant rules would be triggered, Lin Xi asked them to extend their hands through the wall. Seeing Lin Xi's reluctance, the child ghosts quickly reached out from behind the wall. Seeing this, Lin Xi pulled out a few gummy candies from the bag and gave one to each child.
After getting it, the child quickly retracted his hand and put the candy into his mouth. After a while, the child ghosts ate the candy.
Lin Xi couldn't help but ask: "Is it delicious?"
"Delicious!" The ghost children chattered, just like real children, and began to praise the food. Lin Xi smiled confidently. Although it was unknown how old these ghost children were, they acted like children, no different from the real world.
Lin Xi doesn’t have any children, but she occasionally checks out the popular videos on video sites. She saw some bloggers eating snacks with their older children at the entrance of an elementary school, and only then did she realize what kids nowadays are like.
Speaking of which, Lin Xi had also brought Shen Sang Ning to eat at the elementary school gate. After all… the grilled sausages at the elementary school gate were only five yuan for two! And they were super big! The grilled sausages at the fried skewers shop were at least three or five yuan, and they were very small. It was really rare to find two sausages for five yuan.
It is quite easy to win over younger brothers and sisters. As long as you take them to eat delicious food, you can become their big brother or big sister.
"If you acknowledge me as your elder sister, I will give you more food."
The little ghosts had no moral integrity when it came to delicious food and fell for it instantly. They shouted "Big sister, big sister" and it felt like watching the Calabash Brothers cartoon, with seven Calabash Brothers in front of them calling for their grandpa. Lin Xi took out two more unopened bags and put them directly in the hands of the two children, telling them to share.
The kids took the Coke gummies and happily withdrew their hands. Just then, the bell rang, signaling the start of their afternoon classes. Lin Xi, also holding her snack bag, was about to leave when she felt something grab her snack bag.
She lowered her head and saw a long hand grabbing her bag.
Lin Xi turned around and saw a child ghost clinging to the iron railing. It was clearly standing inside the fence, at least a meter away from Lin Xi, but its hand stretched out and tightly grasped Lin Xi's bag. Its eyes glowed with greed: "Auntie, I want more... Give this to me..."
When it tells the truth, its hands are still exerting force.
Lin Xi always felt that this action was somewhat familiar, as if she had encountered this type of ghost before. Thinking about it carefully, wasn't it the mother in "Sweet Home"!
Lin Xi didn’t know what to call this kind of ghost, but it felt like a “plasticine ghost”.
The next moment, the child ghost's movements became even more outrageous. Its neck stretched out, and its head, like a snake, snaked around the wall and emerged from above. Lin Xi looked up and saw the child ghost spitting out its tongue, heading towards her. Looking at the other child ghosts, they also had evil smiles on their faces.
That smile seemed to say: You want to be our big sister? Don’t dream, you stinky auntie!
Lin Xi also smiled: "Wife, cut off its hands, don't kill it."
Before the child ghost could recover, the hand clutching Lin Xi's snack bag was severed by an invisible wind blade. The child ghost's hand was still clinging to the snack bag, but its arm was directly severed. The clay child ghost's eyes widened, and it suddenly retracted its hand and head, transforming into an ordinary child again, screaming "Pain!"
There was no blood on its cross section, and no trace of human body structure. It really looked like dough, just a piece of flesh-colored.
Lin Xi was silent for a while, and couldn't help but sigh: "It really looks like plasticine."
The comments in the live broadcast room changed from the original: [What the hell is this! ]
[Teacher, this isn’t a child’s brother or sister. This isn’t the case with children’s brothers and sisters! ]
[Children's shoe insoles... Help! ]
becomes:
[Don't say it, Sister Xi, now that I've said it, it really does look like plasticine...]
[The official collection should add more ghost types and add a plasticine. 】
[She looks quite similar to the mom in the first level, "Sweet Home." I know, mom is also a clay ghost!]
[I can now understand the little ghost's feelings, because I also want to eat gummy candies, and eating only this little bit is really not satisfying.]
[Please, don't say gummy candy, it's not gummy candy, it's cola gummy candy. ]
Cai Hua, who was watching the live broadcast, also shook her head, but she could see that when everyone started sending comments about fear, the ghost child must have become stronger. Cai Hua had good observation skills, and she could tell from the ghost child's stretched torso that the ghost child had difficulty stretching his arms, but after comments like "fear" appeared on the comments, the distance it stretched was significantly longer and it was more comfortable.
But after its hand was cut off and Lin Xi made the "plasticine" remark, the child ghost obviously became much weaker again, and the speed of retracting its torso was not as fast. Even the broken part of its severed hand looked a little limp.
In other words, ghosts will not only become stronger because of human fear, but also become weaker because of human attitude towards ghosts. This is a good thing for Cai Hua, the base, and even all mankind.
Lin Xi reached out and removed the child's hand from the bag, then threw it towards the child. Lin Xi smiled kindly and said, "Don't leave after school tonight." The child ghosts glanced at each other, made a sharp explosion, and quickly left the fence.
The ghost kids left, but Lin Xi and Shen Sang Ning stayed. They found a spot on the side of the road and stood there chatting. Lin Xi's bag was full of snacks, and carrying them was a bit tiring, so she simply put them on the ground, occasionally taking out some food from the bag to share with Shen Sang Ning.
If they hadn't saved some for bribery of the kid, they might have eaten all the snacks while they were standing here.
Standing there, the two of them attracted the attention of others inside the wall. In the afternoon, the children would also attend physical education classes in batches, and the physical education teacher was naturally there. Du Kang spotted Lin Xi and the others. After leading the children in some exercises, Du Kang arranged for them to move freely. He then ran a few steps and arrived at the wall.
"Lin Xi, what are you doing here?"
When he arrived, Lin Xi and Shen Sang Ning were munching on chicken feet. While Lin Xi had to spit out the bones while chewing tiger-skin chicken feet, Shen Sang Ning didn't even have to spit out the bones. Hearing Du Kang's voice, Lin Xi, still chewing on the chicken feet, came over to him. She still had the chicken feet in her pocket, so she pulled them out and handed them to him.
"Will you eat?"
Lin Xi ate with relish. Du Kang swallowed his saliva and chose to refuse: "You are not allowed to eat during class."
"Put it in your pocket and eat it when you get back to the dormitory."
“…”
Lin Xi's words made perfect sense, and Du Kang accepted them this time. He reached across the fence, grabbed the chicken feet, then pulled them back and put them in his tracksuit pocket. He even had a whistle hanging around his neck, looking exactly like Lin Xi's elementary school gym teacher.
"Didn't you say you were going to give the class to other teachers? Why are you still teaching?"
"Didn't you tell me the day before yesterday to be careful about being disliked by students? I didn't give in much, but I did give in occasionally." He turned around and introduced Lin Xi to the two classes that were taking physical education classes.
"It's actually quite easy to improve students' favorability. Look at that physical education teacher." Lin Xi looked in the direction of Du Kang's finger. Besides Du Kang's class, there was another class taking physical education classes on the playground. However, compared to Du Kang's class's free time, the students in that class had been running since the start of the class.
"There are only two physical education teachers in this school. That teacher never leaves class without doing exercises until the very last minute. The students nicknamed him Pot Cover behind his back. His last name is Guo, and he's called Pot Cover because his face is so black and smelly."
With Mr. Guogai's strength, a living person would probably be crippled here. Not only did he keep his students moving for even a minute, he also ran after them. If any student slowed down, he would even slap them hard on the back with his big hand.
Maybe the nickname "Pot Cover" is not only because his surname is Guo and his face is black and smelly, but also because his palms are like pot covers.
Lin Xi was also a bit of a gym student, so the intensity of the class the teacher had assigned her was obviously problematic. If she kept running at this rate, her legs would be broken by the time she got home. Lin Xi crunched her tiger-skin chicken feet and absentmindedly hummed, "Compared to Mr. Guogai, you're definitely more popular with the students."
Du Kang rubbed his head and said, "Hehe, compared to Wei Ziqi, the conditions for my student's recognition should be easier to meet."
Lin Xi opened her mouth and spat the chicken feet bones she had gnawed off into the bag of potato chips she had been eating. She nodded at Du Kang and said, "You never know."
Du Kang showed some confusion. He put down his hand that was rubbing his head and his expression became much more serious. He couldn't help but ask: "Sister Xi, what do you mean?"
