An Xiaoshan is standing in front of the equipment room door, seemingly struggling with the doorknob around the corner. When Yu Tiantian sees him, she rushes over as if she's seen a savior, disregarding the fact that her legs are already as weak as noodles, wanting to help open the door.
"Don't move!" An Xiaoshan called out as she approached, but it was already too late - just as she neared the doorway, Yu Tiantian was suddenly pushed back by a powerful force, falling heavily to the ground.
The entire process seemed to be in slow motion, the world in Yu Tiantian's eyes slowly tilting and flipping until her line of sight was level with the floor. Sharp pain shot through her knees and wrists - all of this happened in the blink of an eye, and she hadn't fully comprehended what had happened, even suspecting that she had tripped because she was running too fast.
"Stay there and don't move!" Most of An Xiaoshan's attention was occupied by the things inside the door, leaving him no time to care for Yu Tiantian. Seeing that she was unharmed, he focused on dealing with whatever was inside.
Yu Tiantian took a while to recover before she slowly felt her way up the wall to stand. The pain in her limbs was still bearable, but she had already experienced the power of whatever was behind the door and dared not approach it again recklessly.
An Xiaoshan turned his back to her, bowing his head and murmuring something under his breath. Yu Tiantian couldn't understand what he was saying; it was a language completely unfamiliar to her - she didn't even know if it belonged to any known language family. Judging by An Xiaoshan's demeanor, Yu Tiantian guessed that he might be communicating with something inside.
Yu Tiantian even lightened her breathing, afraid of disturbing An Xiaoshan. But the communication process seemed to be difficult; the temperature in the corridor was rapidly dropping, and soon Yu Tiantian was shivering from the cold. The atmosphere also became increasingly eerie, with tangible black mist appearing around her, as if a black veil had been drawn over her eyes. At the same time, she caught a strange smell, just like the one she had smelled at the Xu Family that night.
An Xiaoshan stopped speaking. He pressed the door handle again, but the resistance remained unchanged. With a cold glint in his eyes, he took two steps back, lightly flicked his fingertips, and several yellow talismans shot out like meteors, quickly arranging themselves in mid-air into a radiant array of light.
In an instant, the dim corridor was filled with golden light. An Xiaoshan lowered his eyes, his face serene, and in the bright golden light, a hint of divinity appeared.
The next moment, he opened his eyes, pinched his fingers, chanted a spell, and suddenly burst into a surging energy. Yu Tiantian immediately felt a warm breeze brushing her cheeks, and the flowers, grass, and trees outside rustled as if resonating with it.
The door of the Equipment room trembled slightly, and the symbols flickered. An Xiaoshan remained calm, continuing to activate the array. The door seemed to be unable to bear it, shaking more and more violently, as if something was stirring and about to break out.
In just half a minute, Yu Tiantian heard a deafening explosion, and the door was violently pushed open. Seizing the opportunity, An Xiaoshan shouted, "Break!"
A thick black mist gushed out from the door, with a huge volume that almost instantly engulfed half of the corridor. Its form was elusive and constantly changing, as if trying to condense into a certain shape, but encountering some obstacle in the process, it appeared and disappeared, never able to take a definite form.
An Xiaoshan did not give it a chance. With Fu Zhuan as a guide, he quickly threw out a series of golden lights towards the black mist. The black mist, however, was not to be outdone, maneuvering and evading the attacks with agility, even diving closer to An Xiaoshan.
The characters on the yellow talisman burst into dazzling light in an instant. They rotated and intertwined in the air, forming golden beams of light that connected to each other, creating an indestructible barrier that helped An Xiaoshan evade every attack from the black mist.
Yu Tiantian was stunned, not noticing the smoke coming straight towards her face at this moment. When there was no way to avoid it, Yu Tiantian made up her mind, gritted her teeth, raised her arm to block it - she didn't want to disturb An Xiaoshan, so she closed her eyes and didn't make a sound.
The expected pain did not come. Instead, she smelled a burning odor.
Yu Tiantian looked at the clothes bag in confusion, and actually pulled out a piece of talisman paper that was about to burn out. It's An Xiaoshan's talisman!
However, when did he put it in?
An Xiaoshan noticed the movement over at Yu Tiantian, knowing she was safe, he delivered the final blow—a dazzling beam of light shot straight into the black mist. The two collided in the air, erupting into a deafening roar. After the light faded, the black smoke gradually dispersed, leaving only a faint stench lingering in the wind.
"It's just a clone, the main body has fled," An Xiaoshan said coldly. He didn't pursue further, but instead walked into the Equipment room.
Yu Tiantian quickly got up and followed behind him.
The energy-saving light above had already shattered, with mist swirling inside, as if the smoke after a big battle.
An Xiaoshan With a wave of his hand, he threw a mirror into the air, and in an instant, the room was filled with a bright light, as if it were daytime.
Yu Tiantian It was only then that she saw the tragic scene inside—
Equipment room Inside, everything is in a mess, as if it has been ransacked. The shelves are all overturned, and everything has spilled out. Even the duty teacher's desk has not been spared, with drawers rudely pulled open and files scattered on the chaotic floor.
A short-haired girl is lying motionless under the window sill, while the suspicious boy is standing quietly next to her, seemingly indifferent.
Yu Tiantian felt that this scene was even more terrifying than before - the place was a mess, with a heartbreaking and sinister atmosphere, a strange black mist, a wounded girl, and an unscathed boy. In this abnormal situation, the boy who seemed the most normal appeared to be the most eerie presence.
The boy seemed to sense someone approaching, looked up, and locked eyes with Yu Tiantian. She had never seen such eyes before - empty, cold, lifeless, almost instantly stealing her breath. He suddenly flashed her a strange smile, then turned to look at An Xiaoshan.
An Xiaoshan looked at him coldly, while the boy continued to smile. The corners of his mouth stretched wider and wider, until he let out a sound that seemed like a mix of crying and laughing, then he disappeared into thin air in front of them.
Yu Tiantian's heart jumped violently once again, like a frantic drumbeat, each beat reminding her of the boy's unusual behavior just now.
She tightly closed her eyes and then opened them, wishing she could rub her eyes a hundred times. The boy was indeed nowhere to be found. A chill climbed up her spine, and all the capillaries in her body seemed to be contracting. The feeling of having her worldview shattered repeatedly made her tremble all over - this afternoon, she had even met this boy alone, and he was not human! He definitely wasn't human!
Yu Tiantian dared not think further, feeling only icy cold all over, as if nothing around her could be trusted anymore.
An Xiaoshan Seeing her trembling all over, he promptly comforted her, "The one who harmed people is not him."
Yu Tiantian Slowly turning her head to look at him, her face still pale. She nodded reluctantly, her mind in a daze, unable to think clearly, "Did I... see a ghost?"
An Xiaoshan nodded, "the Xu Family that night, you were confused by the demon, your vitality was damaged, and your luck was temporarily low, so you may see some things that ordinary people can't see." Looking at Yu Tiantian's expression, he added, "This situation will not last long."
"Click," as soon as An Xiaoshan finished speaking, the door behind him suddenly closed.
Yu Tiantian The tense nerves couldn't bear any more scares. She was like a startled bird, suddenly turning her head to look at the door - maybe it was just the wind slamming the door, she reassured herself.
When she turned back again, the girl with short hair was also gone from the windowsill.
Yu Tiantian felt extremely anxious and instinctively checked to see if An Xiaoshan was still there. Seeing him standing behind her, although with a furrowed brow and a doubtful look, somewhat calmed her heart, but the sense of helplessness still almost made her collapse.
"He Shi?"
Outside the door, a clear female voice suddenly rang out.
"He Shi, is that you?"
The sound of footsteps approaching from nearby to far away.
Yu Tiantian instinctively looked at An Xiaoshan. An Xiaoshan reached out and slowly turned the doorknob, and the door creaked open. A cold and chilling air seeped out from the crack of the door, as if the underworld lay just outside.
An Xiaoshan gestured for her to follow, and the two of them stepped out of the door.
Outside the door was still the dark corridor.
Yu Tiantian Looking around, she couldn't quite put her finger on what was strange. The corridor seemed different, yet the same, but she just felt that something was off.
The girl with long curly hair left behind a graceful figure, hurrying towards the depths of the corridor as if searching for someone, completely unafraid of the darkness ahead.
An Xiaoshan chased a few steps, then stopped again, drawing a rune in the air in front of Yu Tiantian and tapping it on her forehead, "It's for concealing your tracks," he explained briefly.
Yu Tiantian nodded. There was a flash of golden light in front of her, and she felt as if she was also shining with golden light, but after a moment, everything returned to darkness.
The corridor was very quiet, except for the deliberately suppressed breathing of two people and the sound of the girl's footsteps. She was skipping and hopping, sounding very cheerful.
This building is the Integrated Teaching Building, with the upper floors all being computer rooms and the music classroom. Only the rooms on the first floor are used as a warehouse, filled with various teaching materials. Apart from the duty teacher, hardly anyone comes here during breaks, so the corridor is particularly clean and lacks any liveliness. There are no windows here, and the corridors are designed to be winding and twisting, earning it the nickname "labyrinth" from many. The girl moved through it unimpeded, which made her seem especially eerie.
Yu Tiantian nervously followed An Xiaoshan, walking along the route the girl took, always keeping a few meters away from her. Whether it was the effect of the talisman or the girl truly being completely unaware of the follower behind her, she single-mindedly searched for the person called "He Shi", staying focused and undistracted, and finally stopped after turning a corner.
The two immediately stopped and hid behind the corner.
"He Shi, it's really you!" The girl exclaimed with joy.
"Hiss—hiss—"
Yu Tiantian heard a sound similar to a snake hissing and the terrifying sound of something stirring in mucus, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
"He Shi, I have a question to ask you..." the girl asked sweetly, "Was it really you last night?"
"Sss—sss—"
What exactly is she talking to?
Behind the corner, Yu Tiantian couldn't help but feel curious. She cautiously peeked out and saw the slender figure of a girl, with a huge humanoid object in front of her.
- Or perhaps it was a spherical mass of flesh with limbs. It was naked, and its obese body almost filled the corridor. At first glance, all that could be seen was layers of flesh-colored fat. Its head and torso almost merged into one, with the flesh of its cheeks piled on top of the mass like flowing fat. Its facial features were extremely ugly, with a few sparse hairs growing on top of its head, small eyes squeezing out from the greasy flesh, greedily staring at the girl in front of it. Below the swollen, flat nose, there were thick lips, and a long, crimson tongue protruding from sharp teeth, continuously dripping with foul, sticky saliva onto its chest, belly, and forming a puddle on the ground.
It drooled, its tongue almost licking the girl's ankle, but it spoke in a pleasant male voice, "Of course it's me."
