Devil’s Examination

Chapter 44: A village without people

Views:

Gao Ying continued to explain: "The questions on the examination paper need to be searched within the scope of this village. So..."

After he roughly described the details, everyone felt incredible.

"The devil... I, I'm afraid of the devil..." There were 7 girls who came in this time, and most of them were very scared. And the boys are excited, eternal life! Pass the exam again and again, you can get the eternal life! Some people even said that they had never provoked these devils, so the devils naturally had no reason to kill them. And they heard Gao Ying say that the devil would not kill them after they solved the problem, and they used this to comfort themselves. The previous exams have proved that saying this is not cheating.

However, Ji Yixuan maintained a high degree of calmness. There has never been a free lunch in the world? Is immortality so easy to obtain? He realized that this was probably the temptation of the devil, and the price they had to pay would be extremely terrifying.

"How many people did you have in the last exam?" He asked in a voice that only Gao Ying could hear.

Gao Ying understood, and replied in a low voice: "Same as this time, a total of 20 people. In the end, only 3 people survived."

15% survival rate!

Ji Yixuan also felt dizzy before his eyes. However, he was also a man of determination, and then continued: "Most of them died at the hands of the devil, or did they die because they failed the exam?"

"Most... were killed by the devil."

"Yeah?"

Ji Yixuan clenched his fists, he forced himself to calm down, and then asked: "The devil will kill the examinee only after he can solve the problem sufficiently, and before that... he can't kill, is that right?"

"yes."

Ji Yixuan nodded, then began to fold the examination paper, held it in the palm of his hand, and said, "My name is Ji Yixuan, Ji of age, one of one, two, three, one of Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor."

"Nice name."

The 19 candidates then began to walk around in this deserted village.

I thought that maybe I could meet a few villagers, but there were no people anywhere, not even a dog. Most of the houses are extremely dilapidated, the door opens as soon as it is pushed, and no one can be found inside.

And what's even weirder is...

On the walls, on the windows, on the door panels, it was written everywhere—

"Don't speak loudly"!

"Quiet! Quiet!"

"Keep quiet, keep quiet!"

Such words are constantly flooding every corner of the village, which makes people feel a little creepy. Combined with the questions of the examination paper, it is even more disturbing.

This time, the number of questions not only increased sharply, but also multiple choice questions and subjective questions appeared. The final argumentation question is even more full up to 20 points. The title is very simple, and the content is "Please explain why the words to keep quiet are written everywhere in the village, the number of words should not be less than 300 words."

Obviously, this is the biggest mystery of this deserted village with devils. If you can't solve this problem, you will deduct a full 20 points, and the consequences will be disastrous.

They... can pass the test

Gao Ying looked at the test questions above and felt that there was darkness in front of him. However, he immediately strengthened his determination, this war must not be lost, and now it is just the beginning!

"Listen up..." Gao Ying began to plan: "Since the exam time is 3 days, then... these 3 days need to arrange people to watch the night in turn. We try to find an open place to live, if there is a devil, it will be convenient for us to escape .In short, the important thing at this stage is intelligence gathering.”

Seeing that Gao Ying's arrangements were orderly, and he was a candidate who passed the exam again, everyone naturally listened to his arrangements.

Hou Mingbo walked to Gao Ying's side, and said in a low voice: "Gao Ying...in case, in case I can't do it, at the critical moment, you let me..."

Gao Ying stomped on his foot, lowered his voice and said, "Don't say those two words! Are you dying?"

Now that the skeleton has not closed its eyes, it is openly discussing cheating, isn't it courting death? Hou Mingbo was not stupid, he immediately understood, and was in a cold sweat from fright. After all, he was a person who often cheated when he was a student, and unconsciously forgot what kind of special exam this was.

Gao Ying also arranged that the candidates should not gather too much, and about two or three people should find a room to live in, with a certain distance between each other. His obvious reason is that when there are more people gathered, it is easier to make more noises. The actual reason is... In case someone dies and makes too much noise, it will not cause other people to suffer from catastrophe.

Gao Ying originally planned to live with Hou Mingbo and Shen Junhao, but after noticing Ji Yixuan, he thought for a while and said to him: "You can live with us."

Ji Yixuan... Gao Ying felt that he had a lot of similarities with him. With him by his side, maybe he can make up for some loopholes in his thinking. As the saying goes, three cobblers are worth one Zhuge Liang, and under the conditions of cheating, Ji Yixuan can be his great help.

"Okay." Ji Yixuan was not stupid, he could see Gao Ying's intentions, so he readily agreed. As a candidate who has had an exam experience, being with him is indeed helpful.

But the other candidates had their opinions. After all, it seemed better to be with Gao Ying who passed the exam. However, Gao Ying then explained that the exam needs to be completed independently, and cheating is completely forbidden, so even if you follow him, it is useless. After hearing this, everyone left angrily. Among them, a few female candidates who are not bad looking directly at Gao Ying. After all, Gao Ying's appearance is really high, and he is definitely a top school grass. Many girls have feelings for men in this environment. Rely on emotions.

Candidates walked lightly as much as possible. From the slogans that can be seen everywhere in the village, they found that not only should they not speak loudly, but other sounds should not be too loud. After seeing the flying skeletons on the test paper, the instant space shift and the test paper that can be put together automatically, they all basically believed in the supernatural power of this test.

Gao Ying finally chose a house with open roads and a slightly higher terrain as a temporary shelter.

The house is basically barren, with only one stone bed. In the corner of the house, there were several clay pots. After opening them, Gao Ying found some pickled vegetables and meat inside. Salted food repels microbes so it can be preserved for a long time. It seems that there is basically no need to worry about the issue of eating. As for water, there is a well in the back, or you can fetch water yourself.

"This village is really desolate..."

Hou Mingbo spoke in a low voice, clutching the examination paper again, carefully looking at each question on it. The light of the moonlight is limited, and the words on it can only be barely read when the window is opened.

"Hope... we can get through these three days..."

At this time... under the previous wall that said "cannot speak loudly", the tall boy who was thrown on the ground was still lying quietly, but... the name column on the test paper has become empty...
