Li Feng was speechless for a moment.
Jiang Cheng thought of something and asked: "If that's the case, then there must be a reason for the distortion of space. What could cause such a phenomenon?"
"The reason why he was circling just now was because he calculated the change in the distance of his movement. It turns out that in that open space, the space was not distorted. The distortion was not the space of those independent buildings." Xu Dingjia murmured. He said, "But as far as space is concerned...he can't be sure what caused it."
"Actually, I have already made some assumptions in my mind." Jiang Cheng saw through Wrong Fang's thoughts and said.
"Is that true?" Xu Dingjia smiled bitterly, "It's just a guess. If that thing really exists, then... all the things we don't want to believe may have happened."
Jiang Cheng was stunned. He didn't know what Xu Dingjia was referring to, but he could feel that the so-called "thing" must be something terrifying beyond human imagination.
"So... pray, pray that it doesn't deny that thing." Xu Dingjia raised the ruler in his leg while shutting up, "I hope that thing can allow them to reach their destination safely and get the truth about everything."
Jiang Cheng looked at the measuring ruler and saw that the pointed end was shaking, sometimes swaying left and right, sometimes trembling eastward, seemingly without any pattern. Xu Dingjia watched with concentration. Gradually, the measuring ruler seemed to move steadily towards the east, pointing towards the end of the corridor.
"Follow the measuring ruler, and maybe you can get out." Xu Dingjia said, already walking towards the end of the corridor. Jiang Cheng found that his expression showed exhaustion, and it seemed that Xu Dingjia had consumed a lot of energy with that "magic weapon".
Li Feng had no choice at this time, so he followed.
Jiang Cheng just begged to follow him, but suddenly he paused. He suddenly heard, somewhere in that space, someone seemed to be calling for help.
"What did we hear?" Jiang Cheng asked, "It seems like someone is calling for help."
"What am I talking about?" Li Feng looked at Jiang Cheng, "Is this an auditory hallucination?"
"It's not an auditory hallucination." Jiang Cheng's negative tone was not very firm, because he himself was not sure. In desperation, Jiang Cheng asked Xu Dingjia again, "Am I sure I didn't hear anything?"
Xu Dingjia stopped, listened carefully, and after a while he said, "No! I must be hallucinating."
"Hallucinations?" Jiang Cheng murmured, "How could that happen? Could it be that he..."
"I don't want to think too much." Xu Dingjia comforted: "In an extremely quiet environment, people are easily affected by environmental and psychological factors, and they can easily have auditory hallucinations. That does not mean that there is something wrong with me. After all, I am just a mortal. In such a stressful situation, the so-called auditory hallucinations are not a normal reaction."
"Is it normal?" Jiang Cheng was not sure, especially if he recalled his changes during that period.
"It's very normal." Xu Dingjia said, "Do you remember what he told me about luck and bad luck?"
"How is his 'qi' now?" Jiang Chenglian asked.
Xu Dingjia smiled and said, "He found that since entering there, the bad luck in my body has disappeared, which also makes my luck stronger! It is possible that due to the distortion of space, he will change the bad luck of the surrounding things. The field is shielded so that he cannot feel it, and it also blocks the erosion of bad luck on me. In other words, although it is a dangerous place, it is the safest place for me."
"Is that true?" Jiang Cheng was very worried about the auditory hallucination just now.
Xu Dingjia nodded affirmatively.
Nadong and Jiang Cheng finally felt at ease, and the three of them walked towards the end of the corridor again.
Like other teaching buildings, there is a staircase at the end of the corridor. Moreover, the three of them discovered that there were not only stairs leading to the east, but also stairs leading to the east. Jiang Cheng had a sharp eye. He spotted the sign on the wall of the corridor and discovered that they were actually on the second floor of the teaching building.
Xu Dingjia stood still between the stairs, and following the instructions of the measuring ruler, he gradually raised his head and looked towards Zaifang.
"Go ahead." Xu Dingjia said.
Just as Jiang Chengqiu was walking upstairs, a familiar voice sounded in his ears again, it was the cry for help. Moreover, that time he heard very clearly the voice of a child.
"Wait! That voice appeared again!" Jiang Cheng stopped the two of them and said, "He heard it, really heard it! It's a child, asking for help!"
"Then how can it be!" Xu Dingjia said first: "Is there an abandoned orphanage there, and it's not raining heavily, how can anyone exist there!"
"Child?" Li Feng thought of something and said, "That Xue Teng once said that there are rumors of being haunted there!"
"Is there really a ghost?" Jiang Cheng was startled, but the child's cry for help became clearer in his ears.
"Is there anyone? Help them!"
"There are no ghosts!" Xu Dingjia said firmly, "There are no ghosts!"
"It's not a ghost?" Jiang Cheng asked, "What exactly is it?"
Xu Dingjia shook his head, with a very serious expression on his face, and warned Jiang Cheng: "Don't ask, and don't ask to hear any more!"
Without explanation, Xu Dingjia continued to follow the guidance of the measuring ruler and walked towards Lou Zai. Jiang Cheng had no choice but to follow along with Li Feng.
Walking up the stairs, they suddenly discovered that it was not the third floor but the fourth floor.
"The space is so distorted that we can only point out the way out with the help of a celestial ruler." Xu Dingjia murmured.
"What is that measuring ruler, and why does it have that effect?" That question lingered in Li Feng's mind for a long time, and he finally asked it.
Xu Dingjia explained: "Actually, the ruler itself does not have any magical power. Through its exquisite structure, it can increase the induction of human errors."
"What does that mean?" Jiang Cheng heard this strangely and then asked.
Xu Dingjia said: "It can be said that some people can react to those strange phenomena, but the reaction is so subtle that the person himself cannot feel it. And the function of the measuring ruler will be Those reactions show up. Therefore, the magic weapon itself is not magical, but the focus is on the person who uses it. Ordinary people's perception is too numb, and it will not be useful if they hold it. Only a descendant of a real person like him can make it Play a role."
When Xu Dingjia said "descendants of real people", he was very proud of himself. Even in such a tense environment, he did not forget to brag about himself.
Just when the three of them shut up, a dark Yongxuan appeared on the third floor, like smoke and a huge python, swimming in various classrooms, slowly drifting towards him.
Walking out of the corridor, Xu Dingjia's steps became slower and slower. His forehead was already covered with sweat, and the tip of the measuring ruler was also trembling violently, making it impossible to discern the direction it pointed. Xu Dingjia once stopped in front of two classrooms.
"Why don't you leave?" Li Feng asked.
"He can't be sure anymore." Xu Dingjia said dejectedly, "His legs are shaking so much that he can no longer point the ruler in the correct direction."
"What will happen if they go in the wrong direction?" Jiang Cheng asked.
Xu Dingjia took a long breath and said slowly: "If you are lucky, maybe you will appear in another place in the orphanage."
"What if you're unlucky?" Jiang Cheng felt anxious and continued to ask.
