This time, after sending the candidates back to the hut, 922 lingered at the door for a while.
After the last experience, he was really curious about what else Youhuo could do. As a result, within a few seconds, he regretted bitterly, because the confusion came out.
922 looked helpless: "What happened to you?"
Wandering: "I remember one thing."
"What's up?"
"The discipline here basically refers to the actual exam?"
922 nodded: "The reference is definitely the reference."
Wandering: "There is an examination discipline that is not mentioned."
922: "Which one?"
"If candidates encounter problems, can they also find an invigilator?"
922: "…Yes."
But we don't really want you to look for it.
In order to avoid trouble, 922 immediately added: "Like the real test, it is forbidden to ask for answers. We don't help, and we can't help."
Youhuo let out an "um", indicating that he knew.
But he has always been perfunctory, and this knows... 922 is skeptical.
"So how can I find you when I have a problem?"
922 said: "Just... with the prescribed pen, under the answer wall exam requirements, write—"
He originally wanted to write the invigilator's number, but because he was too resistant, he tied his tongue, and the exit became: "Write 001."
Youyou looked at him blankly.
922 repeated innocently: "Well, write 001."
"… "
After a century, You Huo nodded, turned and patted him outside the door.
922 made a big one and went back happily.
…
in the hut.
The fire was still burning vigorously, and everyone sat in a clear-cut manner.
Because of the hidden knife, the tattooed man was excluded from the crowd, and he sat at the corner of the table with a gloomy face.
Everyone else is far away from him, and even walks have to be deliberately avoided.
Seeing You Huo coming back, Yu Wen jumped up.
"Brother! Did the invigilator treat you? What was the punishment? Are you okay?"
He waved his answering knife and asked a series of questions like a barrage of cannons.
Everyone looked over.
Youhu frowned and let the blade open, used his feet to push him away, and said, "It's okay."
"Are you sure?" Yu Wen didn't believe it at all.
He glanced at the corner and said in a low voice, "That person has only been arrested once, and that's what happened. How horrible is the punishment?"
Youhuo looked at the corner, and the bald head who had been locked in confinement was shrinking there, his eyes were yellow and congested. He rocked back and forth nervously, muttering something in his mouth, slurring his words.
Like crazy.
You Huo thought of the confinement room when he saw the bald head, and instantly felt a little nauseated.
"He's always been like this?"
"Yeah. It's been three hours, and I haven't recovered at all." Yu Wen shuddered and whispered, "Didn't he keep babbling, I even squatted there and listened for a while."
"say what?"
Yu Wen shook his head and said, "I just heard a sentence of 'bad life', oh, it seems that there is a sentence of 'burning paper money' or something, but I didn't understand the rest."
Youhuo said "um" and said nothing.
"You've been fined one more time than him, how come it seems okay?" Yu Wen was curious.
Youhuo was too lazy to explain, and said perfunctorily: "The way is different."
Yu Wen: "Then what did you punish?"
Youhu choked his head and said, "I slept and sent a bucket of blood to the invigilator."
Yu Wen: "???"
"Why do you send blood to the invigilator?"
You Huo sneered coldly: "Who knows, he likes it."
Yu Wen keenly found that his brother was talking about him, not them.
"Which one? Like that thing? Is he a pervert?"
Confused: "001."
Yu Wen: "Ah..."
…
You Huo and the invigilator are not pleasing to each other, and do not want to talk about this topic.
He glanced around, frowned and asked Yu Wen, "You guys were just paralyzed for three hours?"
"How is that possible." Yu Wenyi pointed to the answering wall and said, "Brother, your solution inspired me, so I went to write a few words."
Youyou looked at the answering wall.
On it, there are all the dog crawling characters written by Yu Wen.
Confused: "… "
Yu Wen said: "Our teacher said, write what comes to mind, even if you can't, write down the process of thinking, maybe you can get a few points right."
Youyou: "So you wrote an essay?"
He struggled to recognize the dog crawling characters, pointed to one of the lines and asked, "What is this sentence?"
Yu Wen tried harder than he recognized: "It seems like... We know that there are 13 people in total and 12 servings of cutlery."
You puzzled: "...Why are you copying the title?"
Yu Wen: "...When I usually have nothing to write in exams, in order to add a few more words, I will emphasize the key points of the question."
Confused: "… "
Also the key to the fucking topic.
He pointed to another pile of circles: "What is this?"
Yu Wen: "G=mg, g=9.8N/kg..."
Youyou: "What does this have to do with optics?"
Yu Wen: "Mainly... I don't know what the tableware has to do with optics."
Confused: "… "
Yu Wen was afraid that his brother would die of anger, so he added: "There is also optics."
Wandering too lazy to read the long-winded nonsense, he asked directly: "Where is it written?"
Yu Wensan said: "Here, I wrote about the refractive index, parallel light, spherical surface, lens, focal length, imaging... These words are all optical, right? I also drew a simple diagram of the imaging of two mirror surfaces."
You Huan was expressionless, Yu Wen thought for a while, but pulled his brother away from the answering wall and changed the subject: "Stop talking about such unpleasant things. Besides answering questions, we also did something else. "
In fact, after the answer wall was updated, they turned the house upside down.
The title says: This is Orion A's hut. He has 13 sets of utensils, but the food is only enough for 12 people.
But they searched all over the attic, cupboards, bottles and jars. First, they didn't see Orion A, and second, they didn't find a tableware. As for the food...
Even more dreaming.
"We searched for more than two hours." Yu Wen said dejectedly, "It's just such a small shabby house, two hours! As you can imagine, I really searched. There is nothing, nonsense."
You Huo asked: "Are you sure you have searched all over?"
"Actually not." A man with a bamboo pole in a hospital gown next to him coughed a few times and interjected, "There are two places that have not been touched."
He raised his bony fingers and pointed to the two locked rooms.
On the doors of the two rooms, one hung a hen and the other a rooster. His neck was twisted, and his dark eyes stared out the window motionless.
It may be that the two chickens look weird. Every time they bark, they are either in violation of the rules or they are rolled up, so no one dares to touch them.
"We searched for the key, but couldn't find it."
Youhuo nodded, approached and looked at the two padlocks carefully, then turned his head and swept around the wall.
Yu Wensheng was afraid that his brother would pick up an axe and split the door, so he quickly said, "Brother! I've played more games than everyone here. It's best not to force this kind of locked door."
You Huo asked him coldly, "Do I look like a mentally retarded?"
Yu Wen retracted his neck and did not dare to speak.
After a while, he said embarrassingly, "Then why are you looking at the wall?"
"Who has moved the hunting gear?" You Huo asked.
When everyone heard this, their eyes turned to the tattooed man.
"Fuck, what the fuck look at me!" The tattooed man was looked at with anger: "I was wronged before for hiding a knife, what are you going to wrong me this time?"
"Injustice?" You Huo frowned.
"So many people get together, who the hell knows where the knife fell out." The tattooed man scolded a few words and said irritably: "I'm done, I can't explain it to you idiots!"
You Huo looked at him coldly.
Tattooed man: "… "
After two seconds of silence, the tattooed man said, "Forget it, you and him... What do you want to ask, ask!"
You Huo rushed to the wall and raised his chin: "Hang the hunting gear you got down and put it back where it was. I'll see the location."
The tattooed man glared at him: "Am I sick? Take it off and hang it back?"
…
Three minutes later, the tattooed man carried a bag of hunting gear and hung them back to their original places.
Youhu stuck in his pocket and followed behind.
"I'm not a dog, can you stop looking like you're walking the street?!"
The tattooed man scolded in dissatisfaction, but he put the last one back, then spit in the air and walked away.
"Brother, what happened to the hunting gear?" Yu Wen asked.
Youyou pointed to the last wall and said, "There are two empty nails."
"So?" Yu Wen was still puzzled.
"Where's the thing hanging from the nail?"
The house was quiet for a while.
Suddenly someone said: "Yeah... Two things are missing. No one is hiding it?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Lao Yu: "It was like that before."
Everyone looked at him.
"Just... Before the exam, don't I want to go out for a walk?" Lao Yuchong said, "I didn't call you when you were sleeping. When I went out, I wanted to see if there was an umbrella in the house. A nail is empty, I'm sure."
"You mean, since we entered the house, there have been two kinds of hunting gear gone?"
"Who's that at?"
"Hunter armor?" Yu Wen guessed, "So... there is actually a hunter armor, but he is not in the house, but went out hunting?"
Everyone panicked: "We can't go out, he won't come in, how can we find him?"
You confused: "It's not time yet."
…
Everyone's guesses about the time were skeptical, but You Huo had already pulled a chair and sat on the fire.
Everyone sat down nervously and sat around the fire in a daze.
Yu Yao supported her waist and carefully moved over. She looked at Wandering for a while, the profile of the other party's face was outlined by the firelight, slightly milder than usual, but the drooping eyebrows still showed coldness.
"I'm sorry," she said with a guilty face.
Youyou looked up at her.
Yu Yao whispered: "That ink... I wrote it, but it caused you to be punished. I wanted to apologize to you before, but you were taken away by the invigilator before you spoke."
Confused: "… "
Yu Yao said: "I know it's useless to apologize. Next time if there is anything else, I'll go for you."
Confused: "… "
He lowered his eyelids and glanced at Yu Yao, then withdrew his gaze and continued to burn: "No need."
Yu Yao opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
She sat for a while, and suddenly asked You Huo, "Aren't you afraid?"
You Huo stretched his leg, the stove was too warm, making him a little sleepy.
He was quiet for a moment, then said lazily, "What are you afraid of?"
"Afraid of death, afraid of breaking the rules... or whatever. Everyone is very curious and feels that you are very powerful, as if you are not afraid of anything."
"Afraid of being useful?"
Yu Yao nodded and said softly, "That's right, but you can't restrain yourself. I'm just scared..."
You Huoyan didn't raise his eyes and said, "You are not too brave. You dare to write on the wall with ink that you can't figure out."
He speaks effortlessly, as if he doesn't even bother to move his lips, and his voice is low and cold. But being roasted by a warm fire doesn't mean anything to blame.
Yu Yao bowed his head, still feeling so guilty that he didn't know what to say.
She held it back for a long time before she said, "I actually..."
But before she could finish speaking, she found that You Huo was stepping on the edge of the chair with one leg, and her elbow on her knee, as if she was about to fall asleep again.
She froze for a moment, but swallowed her words. She didn't wake up from confusion, and slowly moved back to the two old ladies.
"Why is he asleep again?" the old lady whispered, "Did he slept before he came?"
Yu Wen vaguely heard such a sentence, he glanced at You Huo, and said no, my brother was so sleepy even when he slept.
Yu Yao didn't say much, she leaned on the old lady, her eyes fell on a distant corner, and she seemed to be stunned again.
…
After an unknown amount of time, the clock on the cabinet jumped slightly.
Beijing time, four in the morning.
The sudden rooster crowing shocked everyone.
They sat up abruptly and looked at each other, only to realize that they fell asleep in a daze.
Yu Wen Papa gave himself two slaps, a little sober.
As soon as he put down his hand, he heard a strange sound.
"Shh-"
He raised his hand to signal, and asked softly, "Did you hear me?"
"What?" Lao Yu stared at his son haunted, confused.
"Didn't hear?" Yu Wen said, "Just... a creaking sound."
The room fell silent, and no one dared to move.
Everyone looked surprised and listened to the movement with bated breath.
Sure enough, about a few seconds passed.
The creaking sound was heard again, this time everyone heard it.
It's like... in the snow, something is dragging something heavy.
The sick person, Bamboo Pole, suddenly made a gesture, pointed out the window, and said silently, "This way."
Before he could close his mouth, the door creaked open.
A dark shadow was projected from the doorway.
Then, a white-faced man dragged a hemp rope into the house.
He has a wide frame, but is not tall, his face looks like overexposed paper, and his eyes are strange, the black pupil part is so large that there is not much left of the white of the eye.
He hooked his back and rolled the rope little by little, the wide-backed knife and the small trap ring hanging from his waist jingled.
No one spoke in the room, and everyone watched as he dragged a sack into the room and closed the door.
It was only then that he turned his head to look at the fire, and blinked twice with his dark eyes: "Ah... that's good, there are guests here."
Everyone: "… "
…
The one who came to haunt was the Hunter Armor they had been waiting for for a long time.
He slowly rubbed his hands and said, "The snow has blocked the mountains for the past two days, and I knew there was food again... Well, another guest is coming."
guest:"… "
"It's really cold outside," he said softly and slowly. "The snowdrifts were so thick that everyone hid and could hardly find any prey. It took me a long, long time to dig out one."
He kicked the sack and smiled attentively at the crowd, his mouth almost cracked to the bottom of his ear: "You guys are so lucky to catch up with my meal."
He sighed again and explained, "No way, there are too few things on the snow-capped mountains, and groups always come after a long time. I have to tighten my stomach to survive. So I only eat two meals a day."
"One meal at 4 in the morning and one meal at 4 p.m., there are not many opportunities to have a good meal with me." He looked at the clock on the cupboard and said, "Oh, just in time. You must be hungry after waiting here for so long. Seriously, I can hear the voice in your stomach, can't you wait?"
guest:"… "
"How many of you are there?" He stretched out his fingers and counted them one by one, "Old woman, sick child, rascal, alcoholic, alcoholic son..."
None of the names were pleasant, but all the faces he counted were very green.
He paused when he was confused, and was not very happy: "Why is there still one who can't wake up."
"Forget it." Hunter A was distracted, turned his head and glanced at the question stem on the answering wall, and said, "I heard that there are 13 people in total, but my food is a bit small, only enough for 12 people, it's a pity."
He said, licking his lips: "I'm really hungry. But you have to wait a while, I have to get ready. This is the first time I have seen so many guests."
Yu Wen: "… "
This is the first time I have seen such a mother hunter.
First Hunter bent down and grabbed the sack.
The sack looks very heavy, I don't know what it is, and everyone doesn't really want to know...
He dragged the sack to a corner of the house and stopped in front of the house where the hens were hanging.
The key jingled for a while, and Hunter A carefully picked one out and opened the door.
A rotten smell dissipated.
It's hard to describe how bad that smell is, like bad meat, dust and rotting wood piled up.
…
The room with the hens was always thought to be the bedroom.
Only now did I realize that it was actually a kitchen.
There is a long desk inside, and it is not a problem to lie on it.
On the other side is a long red wooden cabinet with several locks hanging on it.
Hunter A smiled at everyone, bowed again, and said, "Wait a moment, it will be fine soon."
Then closed the door.
…
There was silence by the fire for a long time, and someone said in panic, "I don't want to eat, I want to go home."
"Who the fuck doesn't want to go home!" The tattooed man moved to the crowd at some point, and he was probably afraid of the hunter A, "Can you go back? You have the ability to open the door and rush out now!"
The crowd fell silent again.
After a long while, Lao Yu swallowed: "That hunter has such a big mouth, it's not a problem to swallow a head, I always think he wants to eat people..."
Yu Yao murmured, "What's in that sack?"
Listening to these two sentences together, the effect is terrifying.
All eyes turned to the window.
It was still snowing heavily outside. Before the exam, Lao Yu had said that when he went out to explore the road, there was snow all around, and the trees all grew the same. There are no houses or people in the radius of 100 miles, and it is frighteningly quiet...
Where did the prey come from
What's more, Hunter A said that he dug up the food.
When they first got here in the afternoon, a man dismantled the radio without obeying instructions, and his body was buried in the snow soon after...
Everyone remembered this incident in unison, and deep fear appeared on their faces.
Yu Wen was about to vomit.
"Turn around." Wandering's voice suddenly sounded, "Don't mess with me again."
"Brother, are you awake?!" Yu Wen exclaimed in surprise.
"What are you shouting! Can you be quieter!" the tattooed man yelled loudly.
Youyou glanced at the tattooed man and said, "I didn't sleep."
Yu Wen: "Oh—then why do you keep closing your eyes?"
"The eyes are uncomfortable."
Yu Wen remembered that his father, Lao Yu, seemed to have said that he had undergone surgery on his confused eyes, and looking at bright things for a long time would make him tired and uncomfortable. But on weekdays, he had never heard You Huo himself mention it, so that he never remembered it.
"Brother, did you hear what the hunter said?" Yu Wen asked.
Youhuo made a "hmm" sound.
Yu Wen: "What should I do?"
Wandering lazily, he said, "I'm a little hungry. I'll wait for dinner."
Yu Wen: "… "
Who are you scaring
