In the vast night sky, a giant falcon flapped its wings and lifted up the thick clouds, like a sharp sword soaring into the sky.
And on its back, the students were all screaming.
Although there is a mysterious energy barrier protecting them, most people cannot enjoy this flight which is even bumpier than a roller coaster.
"Stinky Chuan, why didn't I realize you were so courageous before?"
Yu Zhouzhou, whose pretty face was pale, looked at Zhou Chuan, whose face was as calm as a lake and whose eyes were as bright as lightning, with some admiration and said.
"Don't talk to me." Zhou Chuan had no expression on his face. He didn't even open his mouth, but the words came out from between his teeth: "I'm about to vomit."
"Ah! Then stay away from me." Yu Zhouzhou said hurriedly.
"Don't worry, the first moment I vomit, I will turn my head towards you." Zhou Chuan forced himself to turn his head and said word by word.
But the next moment, the two of them no longer had the leisure to chat, because the falcon, which was originally flying at high speed, suddenly began to dive and glide, with cloud waves on both sides being swept away by the huge force.
For the first time in his life, Zhou Chuan felt his soul leaving his body.
He looked at the sturdy man with his arms folded and a calm face from afar, and tried hard not to summon out the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master.
He just closed his eyes like this. After an unknown amount of time, he felt a strong sense of weightlessness and smoke and dust suddenly rose up, covering the shoulders and back of the majestic falcon.
However, when the young card makers saw the falcon landing, they all jumped down and thus escaped death.
"arrive."
The sturdy man bent his calves slightly and landed straight on the ground. His movements were smooth and fluid, but everyone present clearly noticed that his calves were shaking.
After all this time, it turns out this guy is just a bully.
"Ghost Inn."
At this time, someone finally noticed the three-story wooden building at the foot of the mountain, and unconsciously read out the words on the stone tablet in front of the building.
Zhou Chuan also looked in the direction of the sound, carefully examining this old and quaint inn with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
"Students, please stay here. We will have an explanation in three days."
After saying that, the sturdy man took the lead and knocked on the thick wooden door of the inn.
After a while, the wooden door opened a crack with a strange sound, revealing a pair of old and turbid eyes: "It's Xiao Du."
"Mr. Wang, these children..."
Before the sturdy man finished speaking, the door of the store was completely opened, and a man with a freckled face and a hunched figure slowly walked out: "Come in, you are the last batch."
Upon hearing this, Lao Du quickly turned around and gave everyone a look, and the students came forward one after another and lined up to go in.
At this moment, Zhou Chuan received a WeChat message from his mother, so he had to stay behind and not go in until he had reported to his family that he was safe.
But when he passed the door, the hunchbacked old man blocked his way and said softly, "Ghosts, gods, gods among ghosts, young man, you are too arrogant."
Zhou Chuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "The old man is blocking the younger generation from entering. This is bullying the weak."
"Hehe." The old man smiled stiffly, then made way for him and said "please" twice, but no one knew who he was talking to.
"This place is a little too weird."
As Zhou Chuanxin spoke, he quickly looked around the lobby on the first floor, only to see that this so-called Ghost Gate Inn, although only one letter different from the famous Dragon Gate Inn, did not have the slightest bit of the human touch of the martial arts world.
It's more like the kind of old inns or ghost stations in the mountains where all kinds of people gather, which are often seen in Hong Kong zombie movies. It seems as if a Taoist priest in a bright yellow robe will ring a bell at any time and lead a group of zombies in dark blue official uniforms to enter from the door.
It's extremely strange.
"Students have worked hard all day. Take a good rest tonight and keep your energy up for the next three days so that you can achieve satisfactory results in the finals."
Before leaving, the bearded Lao Du, who liked to show off, couldn't help but say a few polite words, and after giving a few simple instructions, he flew straight to the southeast on his falcon.
After that, the old man Ju Lu proposed to send everyone to their rooms, and the students followed him upstairs.
But every time they took a step, the dark wooden stairs would creak, as if they would break at any time, which made them worry about the building safety of the inn.
"You can stay in this room."
The old man pointed to the room at the end of the corridor and said, then he took a piece of candle from the lamp and handed it to Zhou Chuan.
After expressing his thanks, Zhou Chuan took the candle and reached out to push the door. He then discovered that not only was the inn old in appearance, but even the furnishings in the room were antique, and might even be older than their ages combined.
It is rare that such an old building still exists after the turmoil during the Chongzhen period.
"Come in."
The old man said one last sentence and closed the door.
Zhou Chuan placed the candle in the lampshade on the bedside table and sat down beside the bed.
Oddly enough, this candle, made of some unknown material, was surprisingly useful. Just this tiny bit of light could illuminate half of the room incredibly brightly.
But when you think about the fact that this is an extraordinary world, it’s not surprising at all.
"I can't sleep anyway, so I might as well review for a while."
Zhou Chuan thought about it and pulled out a life card with a picture of a mountain of books from his consciousness space.
With a flash of white light, a thick stack of books fell from the sky. He took out one and began to read it by candlelight.
To be honest, he has been busy with the competition since he traveled through time, and this is the first time he has been studying so hard to prepare for the college entrance examination.
After all, Zhou Chuan is not a rookie. He knows very well that with his performance in this competition, even if he hands in a blank paper in the written test of the college entrance examination, he will be regarded as having personality by the admissions offices of top prestigious universities.
Even if he didn't take the college entrance examination, what would happen? There would still be famous schools vying for him.
But after this game, he had already realized that with the support of Chinese civilization, he possessed a knowledge base that was unmatched by anyone else.
So what did he lack? It was nothing more than mental accumulation, card making skills, and material resources.
So how can you get these things
Studying and practicing hard is one thing, but you also need to know how to express yourself and strive for success!
Green material exchange vouchers, Heroic Soul Warhorse, Gold Card Creator Certification... Which of these things can be obtained by hiding? It is because he has demonstrated his "value" through various means.
This is the case with an undead riot that only involves one city and a card-making competition that only covers the north. So what will the world-renowned college entrance examination bring him
I think the gains will be immeasurable.
"Everything is ready, except the east wind."
Under the flickering candlelight and in the hazy moonlight, Zhou Chuan thought so.
But at this moment, there was some noise outside the door.
"The sound of bells?"
