After walking for about ten minutes, we finally arrived at the girls' dormitory building.
The female students in the 2021 Chinese class lived in Building 13, one of the last few girls' dormitories.
Bamboo pole was so tired that it could barely walk. It hunched over, gritted its teeth, and held the book in its hands, stopping every now and then to rest and catch its breath.
What chilled him even more was that Chen Tingting followed Chu Mengyao the whole time, completely ignoring him.
I didn't even say "you've had a hard time" to him!
Why! !
Zhang Yuan was alright, following Xie Feng and the others at a moderate distance. Fei Bo was also sweating profusely, and he and Wu Jiaojiao had also distanced themselves from Zhang Yuan and Li Jiajia.
Building No. 13 is located at the very back of the girls' dormitory complex, the second to last building, near the foot of the hill behind the school.
As they approached Building 13, Zhang Yuan noticed something odd about the last girls' dormitory building behind it, which was Building 14.
It was an ordinary five-story building.
Half of its building is covered by the mountain behind it and vegetation, so it cannot see the sunlight. The shady side of the wall is covered with green ivy.
Although Building 14 is designed the same as the other girls' dormitory buildings, for some reason, it looks lifeless.
Furthermore, Building 14 was uninhabited; the balconies of every dormitory room were empty, and some of the railings were rusty, unlike other dormitory buildings where balconies were covered with colorful clothes.
After Zhang Yuan opened his Qi Sea acupoint and entered the Foundation Establishment Realm, his body became more sensitive to the outside world, and he could perceive some information that ordinary people could not perceive.
For example, right now, when I look at Building 14, a chilling yin energy is drilling straight into my body from my Qihai acupoint.
Even in the sweltering summer heat, a slight chill ran through my body.
But no one else felt this way.
Xie Feng, Chu Mengyao, and others had already reached the foot of Building 13, while Zhu Gan and Fei Bo were still behind.
Xie Feng stood at the entrance of Building 13 and shouted to Zhu Gan and Fei Bo behind him, "Hurry up!"
"That building is so strange, it looks like no one has lived there for a long time!"
Zhang Yuan rarely took the initiative to speak.
Xie Feng, Chu Mengyao, and the others followed Zhang Yuan's gaze and looked at Building 14, which was about fifty or sixty meters away from Building 13.
"Ya Jing, the class assistant, said that Building 14 is a bit eerie, and the school doesn't arrange for anyone to live there, so we should stay away from it!"
Li Jiajia said.
Chen Tingting nodded.
A hint of worry flashed in Chu Mengyao's eyes. She didn't know if she was overthinking it or what, but every time she looked at Building 14, she felt it was gloomy and scary.
Zhang Yuan remembered what Senior Sister Ya Jing had mentioned about two forbidden areas on campus yesterday. Building 14 must be the forbidden area in the girls' dormitory that Senior Sister was talking about.
Xie Feng replied, "I think it's quite normal. It's just that one side doesn't get much sunlight, so it's a bit dark, but it should be very cool to live there in the summer!"
At this moment, Fei Bo, Zhu Gan, and Wu Jiaojiao also arrived, and the group began to climb the stairs.
...
Dormitory 501, Building 13.
Fei Bo and Zhu Gan, panting, placed a stack of books on the desk in dormitory 501. Zhu Gan was so tired that he leaned on Chen Tingting's desk.
You two are in terrible health; you're exhausted from reading so little.
Xie Feng stroked his hair and retorted.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"Sit down!"
Li Jiajia, Wu Jiaojiao, and others spoke, and pulled out chairs from under the desk.
Chu Mengyao: "You two sit down and rest for a while. I'll get you some hot water. You must be exhausted from carrying this far!"
"Great, great, I'm so thirsty!"
"Fat Bo said, and Bamboo Pole nodded in agreement."
Xie Feng tossed his signature long, black hair and leaned against Chu Mengyao's bedside, striking a pose he considered very dashing.
Thank you so much, Miss Chu.
Chu Mengyao and Xie Feng exchanged a glance, then quickly looked away and turned to pour water.
Chen Tingting: ...
Straight man Zhang Yuan: "I don't need it, I'm not thirsty!"
Xie Feng turned his head and looked at Zhang Yuan with a strange gaze, without saying a word.
After the four of them finished drinking hot water in the girls' dormitory and chatted for a while, they went downstairs to go back to the classroom to get their books.
Back downstairs at Building 13, Zhang Yuan glanced at Building 14 again.
This abandoned house, half of which is shrouded in shadow, seems to exude a faint, eerie aura.
The dense ivy vines on the right wall swayed in the wind.
Suddenly, Zhang Yuan's vision went black. He seemed to see something black and eerie flash through the messy bushes and weeds in front of Building 14 and disappear into Building 14.
Zhang Yuan stared intently, trying to see what it was, but found nothing.
However, he felt as if something terrifying was staring at him.
At this moment, Zhang Yuan felt a chill all over his body, and he felt a terrifying yin energy constantly drilling into his body through his Qihai acupoint and his entire body.
Despite the scorching sun, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but shiver.
The little sword spirit that had been hiding in Zhang Yuan's chest without making a sound suddenly spoke.
"Master, leave this place quickly! There's something unclean in that house, and you're no match for it yet! Get out of here!"
Zhang Yuan was startled; there really was something unclean.
So he quickly turned around, left the place, and chased after Xie Feng, Zhu Gan, and Fei Bo.
Just as Zhang Yuan turned around, in the shadows of the roof of Building 14, a strange black cat, its body shrouded in eerie energy, stood on the high eaves, its black, chilling eyes watching Zhang Yuan and the others leave.
Suddenly, the black cat raised its paw, licked it with its tongue, then meowed and turned into a wisp of black mist, disappearing without a trace.
Zhang Yuan took a few steps, then, sensing something, turned back and glanced at the strange Building 14 again.
Just then, a wisp of black mist slowly dissipated in the shadows on the rooftop.
How bizarre!
...
On his way back to the dormitory, Zhang Yuan encountered a group of military training instructors in uniform and caps marching in perfect unison as they entered the school.
In the evening, Zhang Yuan continued practicing his martial arts.
The next day, Zhang Yuan still got up early to practice his skills, then had breakfast, and went to the playground with his roommates at eight o'clock.
At 8:30, all 46 students in the class had arrived.
Under the organization of senior student Chen Yajing, the boys and girls in the class lined up in a simple manner according to their height, waiting for the instructor to arrive.
Around 9 o'clock, the instructors walked onto the playground from a distance.
Zhang Yuan and his classmate saw a short-haired young instructor running towards the Chinese class.
On the school playground, there are not only students from the Chinese class of the School of Literature and Philosophy, but also students from other classes and other colleges.
Last night, the instructors assigned their respective classes to train.
After the young instructor arrived and finished coordinating with Senior Sister Ya Jing, confirming that the class was correct, he officially took over the training of Class 1, Chinese Language and Literature, 2021.
The 20-day military training officially began.
The class assistant, Chen Yajing, put on a pair of sunglasses, took out a bottle of iced cola, and sat on the steps to enjoy it.
She watched the 2021 freshmen train for a while under the shade of a tree, fanning herself with her hand.
The weather in September was still very hot.
Chen Yajing watched for a while, but probably because it was too hot, she left first.
The military training program on the first morning was very simple.
The instructors first rearranged the ranks according to the height of the boys and girls, and then began to teach basic movements such as standing, standing at ease, turning left and right.
At 11:30, a whistle blew on the playground.
The morning training session has ended.
Although the temperature reached 27 degrees Celsius in the morning and the weather was hot, many students did not feel tired because the training activities were relatively simple and it was the first day of training after the start of the semester, and they were still looking forward to the military training.
What truly instilled fear of military training in the students was the afternoon training session.
At 3 p.m., training was still taking place on the playground.
When the time came, the instructor gave the task: all students had to stand at attention for 15 minutes!
In the morning, the instructors had already taught the standard standing posture, so when the instructors said that we had to stand at attention for 15 minutes, everyone didn't think much of it.
It's just standing still and not being allowed to move.
But five minutes later, they realized the seriousness of the problem!
Standing here motionless is so uncomfortable!
You can't wipe the sweat off your face, you can't scratch your itchy body, you can't move your head, you can't move your legs, you can't move your eyes, in short, you can't move your whole body!
Around the sixth minute, some students finally couldn't resist and started sneaking around in the line.
But the instructor had sharp eyes and immediately spotted Fatty Bo, who was disobeying orders and fidgeting while standing at attention.
"Fourth row, first boy on the left, step forward!"
Instructor Li shouted loudly.
Due to long-term training in specific areas, the addition of military uniforms, and the special status of instructors, young instructors naturally possess an aura of authority.
This aura was enough to intimidate these greenhorns who had just entered university.
Although these instructors may be a few years younger than the students here.
Fei Bo stood in line without moving, but he was already panicking. He was itchy from sweating too much and had secretly scratched his thighs and buttocks, but the instructor caught him.
"You, the first boy on the left in the fourth row, the fattest one, step forward now!!"
Instructor Li almost roared.
Seeing that he could no longer hide, Fei Bo walked out guiltily.
"Disobeying orders and touching people inappropriately below, punishment: 15 push-ups!"
Instructor Li reprimanded, his expression unusually serious.
