At this time, he was still looking at the examination paper over and over.
Ji Yixuan was sitting next to him.
"Yixuan, from now on, if I ask anything, you just need to nod, shake your head, and don't say anything. But if I don't ask a question, don't say anything. Do you understand? Nod, shake your head, and don't make any more unnecessary movements."
Gao Ying's serious tone made Ji Yixuan realize that he must have something special in mind. However, Gao Ying just stared at the exam paper without saying anything, which made Ji Yixuan confused about what kind of medicine he was selling.
Finally... Gao Ying saw that the skull's eyes... were closed!
He immediately looked at Ji Yixuan and said as fast as he could: "What did you discover before? Right?"
Ji Yixuan nodded immediately.
"Did you find a clue?"
Ji Yixuan nodded.
Gao Ying stared at the skeleton with its eyes closed, and then continued to ask: "Have you ever witnessed a ghost?"
Ji Yixuan shook his head.
"Did the clues you found allow you to answer the question directly?"
Shake his head.
Gao Ying took a deep breath, but the skeleton still didn't open its eyes.
"Are the clues you found on you?"
Ji Yixuan nodded.
At this moment, the skeleton opened its eyes!
Gao Ying immediately stood up and said, "Okay, I've finished asking questions."
The question just now, regardless of whether it is suspected of cheating, is most reasonable to ask when the skeleton has its eyes closed. Even if the skeleton suddenly opens his glasses and Gao Ying speaks slowly, he can stop at any time, and Ji Yixuan's simple nodding and shaking of his head cannot be judged as cheating.
.
Gao Ying even considered formulating a secret code to communicate answers to each other. However, frequent use of secret codes is too dangerous for the skull who can supervise the test papers at any time. Moreover, this only works for objective questions.
Ji Yixuan asked in confusion: "Gao..."
"Don't ask anything."
Gao Ying knew that Ji Yixuan had discovered some clues, but since they were not clues that could directly solve the problem, there was no need to risk cheating. At present, there was still time, so for the time being, it was better to be safe.
"Speaking of which... I'm getting sleepy..." Ji Yixuan realized something. Although it was daytime outside, but... it was early yesterday morning when he entered, which also directly caused the "jet lag" problem.
"If you're sleepy, just take a nap. Well...you don't snore when you sleep, right?"
"Won't……"
"That's good."
Ji Yixuan didn't know the rules of the skeleton closing its eyes, so he didn't understand Gao Ying's endless questions at all. He also didn't let Ji Yixuan go into details about what he had experienced with Lan Xinzhu, obviously because he was worried that the experience involved cheating. Yes,
If that piece of paper is shown to Gao Ying, it means Gao Ying cheated.
"Then let me... take a nap?"
With Gao Ying waiting for him, Ji Yixuan closed his eyelids with peace of mind. He... was really too tired.
But as soon as he closed his eyes, Ji Yixuan thought of Lan Xinzhu. He thought of her extremely sad howling before she died...
Of course, even if he went back to that time, he would still make the same choice. If he had not made such a choice at that time, he would not be alive now. However, his thoughts were too confusing, making it difficult for him to sleep peacefully for a while.
Gao Ying stared at Ji Yixuan who was leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, continued to pick up the examination paper in front of him, and began to look at the questions on the paper.
"The ghost mentioned in the exam question...has not appeared yet."
This time the exam is different from the last one. The pace seems to be quite slow. Gao Ying judged that this is to give the candidates more time to judge and analyze. At the same time, beware of the appearance of ghosts in advance.
"The boy in red...and...the village chief..."
He was most concerned about the "village chief" mentioned in the examination paper.
Outside the village, everything was still shrouded in deathly silence. In this silent world, Gao Ying felt unprecedented depression. Frankly speaking, even if a ghost appeared, it would be better than now, with no clues at all.
"Girl in black skirt..." Gao Ying clicked on another noun mentioned in the exam paper that caught his attention. Girl in black skirt appeared three times in total in multiple-choice questions and fill-in-the-blank questions in the exam paper. This made him quite a bit proud.
care.
One of the multiple-choice questions was to choose the name of the girl in the black dress...or should be said to be the female ghost. Then the four options given were all different names.
"Lan Ying... Wu Hui... Han Xiaoyan... Su Yiyi..."
What happened to this village in the past?
He always felt that this curse did not arise for no reason. There might be some mystery hidden behind it.
In fact, what worries him the most is the last question of the multiple choice question.
The question clearly read: "When you see which of the following patterns, do you want to run away as fast as possible?"
The four options are four strange patterns, which are a black five-pointed star in a circle, an animal head similar to a dragon or a lizard, a flat human head, and the last option is like five black fingers.
General images.
Every candidate has these four images firmly in mind, but no one has found any patterns among them.
"From the analysis of the test questions, we can't figure out the reason why the ghost acted, nor why it killed the candidates based on the sound. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the so-called 'girl in red' and 'girl in black dress' did not directly indicate that they are ghosts..."
There is no mention of "ghost" anywhere in the test question, and even the term "ghost hitting the wall" does not appear. So, they may be ghosts, they may be villagers who died in vain, or they may be both.
"Did I miss any important clues?"
As time goes by, it is impossible to predict what will happen next. Just relying on the limited information of these test questions, nothing can be inferred at all.
"We must go out and explore again before dark."
Gao Ying decided to find time to sleep for a while and recuperate his energy. If he didn't continue to explore the village, he wouldn't be able to pass the exam. Now, he had no other choice. No matter how dangerous the road ahead was, he had to go!
This is the only way to eternal life...the cruel way!
Time keeps passing...
Each candidate has his or her own thoughts and ideas. They constantly analyze each question and form groups in the village to explore. However, they no longer trust Gao Ying, so the remaining candidates have also become
They are all scattered and doing their own thing. And as time goes by, some people have discovered... the secret of the skeleton's closed eyes! There is always a shortage of smart people, and some people have begun to speculate, does this mean that cheating is possible? But even if they come
If you ask Gao Ying, Gao Ying will not tell the truth. After all, if they come to snatch your exam papers when the skeleton closes its eyes, it will be troublesome.
Finally... after recuperating, a new round of exploration begins again!
But this time, the number of people following Gao Ying's actions was greatly reduced, and only two boys were willing to continue to follow them.
However, Gao Ying originally didn't care about this. There were so many people, but it might cause a lot of trouble.
And this time, Gao Ying's goal is... to find a way to find the village chief's home!
