How many people are there in the orphanage? Tangning didn't know, but he had taken care of ten children during this period.
In order to get the doll back, Bai Yingxue made at least dozens of dolls. Even ordinary dolls would be difficult to make in such a short time, not to mention that the dolls made by Bai Yingxue were special.
Although he didn't know what it would cost to put a malicious soul into a doll, Tang Ning still remembered what Xiaoyu said about the monster children who were made into dolls.
It would be impossible to complete a doll and kill a monster.
Tang Ning held his breath and looked at Lu Yuhua. He finally understood why Lu Yuhua said Bai Yingxue was crazy in the beginning.
If someone is willing to do such a thing, what else could he be but crazy
"I'll stop you." Lu Yuhua grabbed Tangning's shoulders and whispered, "I can't watch the entire orphanage being destroyed. This is what I did!"
Lu Yuhua's grip on Tang Ning's shoulders was very fierce, and his face looked a little ferocious because of that determination.
Tang Ning frowned in pain and hushed to the emotionally unstable Lu Yuhua.
Lu Yuhua didn't say anything, his hands still tightly grasping Tang Ning's shoulders.
Those clear eyes seemed to be able to reflect the madness of another person. Lu Yuhua looked directly into Tang Ning's eyes, and his excitement gradually cooled down.
Tang Ning looked at Lu Yuhua with some confusion. He had some doubts about what Lu Yuhua had just said. In fact, he could understand why Bai Yingxue changed the doll. Xiaoyu had told him that the doll said "sister who will always protect me" in Bai Yingxue's eyes. Tang Ning felt that there was no logical problem with what Lu Yuhua had just said. The key was in the specific implementation.
How could Bai Yingxue alone destroy the entire orphanage
Even Xiaoyu might not be able to deal with Bai Yingxue, and Xiaoyu did not say for sure that those monster children who were made into dolls were killed by Bai Yingxue. Tang Ning believed that with Bai Yingxue's strength, she would not be able to hurt too many monsters.
However, Lu Yuhua said, "We can't just watch Bai Yingxue destroy the entire orphanage." Lu Yuhua seemed to believe that Bai Yingxue could do it.
It's really unbelievable.
Lu Yuhua slowly loosened his hand, and he seemed to have finally calmed down. He squatted quietly on the ground with drooping eyelids, revealing a decadent and depressed air.
Tang Ning also squatted down. He was also exhausted during this period. Compared with Lu Yuhua, he was like a salted fish and a pretty salted fish.
"You came to such a dangerous place just to stop this?" Tangning didn't quite understand: "What good would this do for you?"
He was not very sensitive to the ways of the world, nor could he analyze Lu Yuhua's inner thoughts and determine the truth from the falsehood based on just a few words like those powerful players. He simply felt that it was not very reasonable.
Although Lu Yuhua used to be a child from an orphanage, the system determined that Lu Yuhua's home was not an orphanage, and the crisis he would encounter next should also come from the Lu family.
And now, Lu Yuhua sacrificed herself to stop Bai Yingxue. Tang Ning only saw those healing tools. This sacrifice was too great and unreasonable. Tang Ning was struggling with these issues now because he was trying to determine whether Lu Yuhua was genuine or not. If Lu Yuhua lied to him, he might as well go to the confinement room alone.
"Yes." Lu Yuhua said calmly: "Mine will feel better."
Tang Ning was stunned. He had previously guessed that after Bai Yingxue sent the dolls to Lu Yuhua's house, those dolls would pose a threat to Lu Yuhua. Another possibility was that preventing the orphanage from being destroyed might earn him gratitude from those monster kids, so he sent the monster kids to Lu Yuhua's house to help fight. Tang Ning thought so much, but he never expected Lu Yuhua to give this answer.
"Are you crazy?" Tang Ning asked seriously. In a virtual copy, just to feel better, he actually did such a crazy thing. Bai Yingxue was right. Lu Yuhua was indeed crazy.
Lu Yuhua raised her eyelids and looked at Tangning. Tangning frowned and looked uncomfortable. Lu Yuhua's eyes and tone became uncertain: "They are real."
Tangning blinked blankly.
Lu Yuhua suddenly grabbed Tang Ning's hand and dragged her to hide in one direction. The next second, a groping hand appeared where they were standing.
It’s that monster teacher with long limbs!
Tang Ning's heart was beating rapidly, so fast that he thought his chest was going to explode. This was not because of the sudden appearance of the monster teacher, nor because Lu Yuhua was pulling him desperately in one direction to escape.
He kept thinking back to what Lu Yuhua had just said. Her nervous tone was a reminder that only when someone's eyes were firm and their voice was steady could they be believed. However, Lu Yuhua's dreamlike words had made Tangning's breathing unsteady.
"What did you just say?" Tangning turned around and asked with a trembling voice, trying to get confirmation.
Lu Yuhua hushed, and he pulled Tang Ning and ran quickly.
"Who's in front?! I heard a voice!" The monster teacher's voice came from not far behind, and the strange tone was full of excitement. Lu Yuhua took out the cure-all wheat grains from his pocket without looking back, and threw it to the side.
There seemed to be some invisible force in the air moving rapidly in the direction where Lu Yuhua threw the candy. Dense small footprints appeared on the grass, the treetops kept shaking, and bursts of noise led the monster teacher to another place.
"Kids! Run slower! The teacher will be here soon!" The monster teacher's excited voice gradually faded away from Tang Ning.
Lu Yuhua pulled Tang Ning to hide behind a huge trash can at a corner. They stopped now because Tang Ning's body could no longer run at such a high speed.
Tang Ning carefully covered her mouth with her hands to prevent her rapid breathing from revealing their location. When Lu Yuhua turned his head, he saw Tang Ning curled up in the corner with her chest still heaving violently. Her slender hands covered half of her face, revealing only a pair of bright eyes.
Those eyes were bright at the moment, as if there was water vapor condensed there, sparkling and emitting a dazzling brilliance that made people unable to look away.
As he stared at her, Tangning moved her hand away and opened and closed her beautifully shaped lips to ask, "What did you just say?"
Lu Yuhua lowered her head and mouthed the same words: "I am a madman."
Yes, if someone can say such things in a card game, then what else can he be but crazy
Crazy words are never credible.
"Will you still come with me?" Lu Yuhua extended her hand towards Tang Ning.
Tangning grabbed Lu Yuhua's hand and stood up, "Let's go, crazy."
They walked in the dark, shameful place with no light, hiding every few steps. When Tang Ning curled up in a corner to avoid the monster, he saw an unknown green plant blooming in the corner of the wall where the paint had peeled off.
There is no light, no water, and I don’t know how this weed grew out of the concrete ground.
Tang Ning leaned his forehead against the wall. Lu Yuhua was beside him, using a broken umbrella she had picked up to shield their figures. The mist in Tang Ning's eyes condensed into a tear, which fell on the green leaves of the weed.
Lu Yuhua put down the umbrella, and he pulled Tang Ning out of this small corner and continued to hide. Because they were avoiding being tracked by the monster teacher, they spent half of the time hiding on the way to the confinement room.
The class lasted fifteen minutes, and the break lasted only fifteen minutes. When the bell rang again, Tang Ning and Lu Yuhua had not yet reached the detention room.
Although it was class time, they still had to hide, but the monster teacher's catching efficiency during class was not as great as when playing hide-and-seek.
Once again, when Tangning and Lu Yuhua were hiding in a corner, Tangning asked, "By the way, why did Xiaoyu's burns heal as soon as the bell rang, and why did the kids around you disappear?"
The reason Tang Ning asked this question was that he vaguely felt that his relationship with Lu Yuhua had improved a lot, although Tang Ning was not sure what had caused their personal relationship to improve.
"Have you talked about the inner and outer world?" Lu Yuhua asked.
Tang Ning shook his head blankly.
Lu Yuhua didn't mean to explain. He just said, "You can understand it literally. What I said is just my guess. The inner and outer worlds are just a simple division of mine. It may not be correct."
"When the bell rings, the inner world appears. When the bell rings, the outer world appears."
"The inner world is terrible. As you can see, everyone is like a monster. The surface world can still barely maintain its superficial beauty, but it is almost unstable. When you first came here, the adults you saw were normal, right?" Lu Yuhua asked.
Tang Ning nodded. Although the security guard and the teacher whose limbs had grown longer had behaved strangely, the adult did not maintain the monster form for long. He turned into a monster only after being provoked by the children.
"Now even the teachers in the surface world can't maintain normalcy. Teachers here symbolize order, which means the orphanage is collapsing bit by bit." Lu Yuhua murmured, "It's only the day now, and it should be the seventh day of collapse. It's Bai Yingxue who has been accelerating the demise of order here."
Tangning was already somewhat confused by this. He muttered to himself in confusion, "I am trying to save you while you are destroying me."
Lu Yuhua continued to pull Tangning forward. Tangning, who was still confused, asked, "Are you trying to save those children by giving them the healing tools?"
"Yes, there are many children in this orphanage. The children here may have problems. Some are physically disabled, some are mentally disabled. You may not be able to imagine it, but some children are born bad." Lu Yuhua said softly: "The children in the other world are kind."
“Teachers hate bad kids, but they don’t hate the good kids.”
Tang Ning understood Lu Yuhua's train of thought at this point. Was Lu Yuhua helping the teachers maintain their sanity by making those good kids stronger
But in this case, Tang Ning didn't quite understand what Bai Yingxue was destroying. She was using a malicious soul to make dolls, and the ones being hurt should be the bad kids. Wouldn't it be in the teacher's interest to get rid of the bad kids
"And Bai Yingxue directly encouraged those bad kids to kill their teacher."
Tang Ning was stunned.
The teacher was killed? How could this happen
"The monster child is not as strong as the monster teacher, so he got the soul material he wanted, but the teacher was injured in the attacks again and again, and the selfish behavior of the adults who died successfully caused the order of this orphanage to collapse rapidly."
Tang Ning thought of the deceased security guard, and perhaps even more monsters that he didn't know had died.
"The speed of saving will never catch up with the speed of destroying, unless I have a power greater than you." Lu Yuhua's tone was filled with deep sorrow. He stopped and Tang Ning, who had been immersed in Lu Yuhua's words, also stopped. He looked up blankly and realized that he was standing in front of a house with a closed door.
"I'm sorry, I'm a selfish lunatic." Lu Yuhua apologized to Tangning, "I need it."
As Tangning stared at him in bewilderment, Lu Yuhua knocked on the door of the detention room. He lowered his head, his eyes filled with fear and anxiety, "I've brought the person you were looking for."
