Chapter 164: In a Fantasy World
"rest early."
When they reached the dormitory building, Qin Wei gently patted Gu Chaoxi on the back.
She turned her head, smiled at Qin Wei, and pretended to push her hand away with disgust.
"Come on, who knows if you'll enter another fantasy world after falling asleep."
This plane always seems to easily enter another illusion, which gives Gu Chaoxi the feeling of a nesting doll.
The two of them had a big fight and then went back to their rooms.
Now, only Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan are left in the double room.
Although she didn't know what would happen in the evening, she took a shower early and lay down on the bed.
When Pei Yan came out of the shower, she was already drowsy and almost fell asleep.
I slept for a long time in the afternoon, but now I feel sleepy again.
She always thought that people should go to bed when they are sleepy, so she didn't resist this feeling at this moment.
Pei Yan stood by and watched for a while, smiled silently, and walked over to turn off the lights in the room.
He sat by the bed for a long time before he turned over and lay down on the bed.
He was clearly thinking about something in his mind, but as he was thinking, his thoughts drifted away.
Tilting his head, Pei Yan could hear Gu Chaoxi's steady breathing.
This feeling inexplicably made him feel particularly safe.
Gradually, Pei Yan also fell asleep.
When the bell rang, it seemed as if someone was walking through the corridor with light footsteps.
Gu Chaoxi turned sideways, put his hands on the edge of the bed and continued to sleep.
There were bursts of whispers coming from her ears, which made her feel a little annoyed.
There were many spots of light flashing before her eyes, and she couldn't help but turn over, but the light was still there.
Finally, Gu Chaoxi opened his eyes.
She was lying on a lounge chair. It was a little dark around her, and there was a light shining from a distance.
Is that a stage?
She was stunned for a moment and struggled to sit up from the recliner.
There were people walking back and forth in front, everyone looked busy, except for her who was just lying there sleeping.
There seemed to be a lot of people outside the curtain, and she could clearly hear a lot of whispers.
However, she had no intention of listening to what these voices were saying now.
She got down from the recliner, stretched her body, and then walked towards the source of the light.
When the curtain was drawn, it turned out to be a stage.
When I looked up, I noticed that there were two curtains on the stage. Because the one at the back was closed, many people were preparing props here.
Her eyes scanned the area and then landed on the lower stage.
There were a few people standing there, talking about something.
One of them pushed the boy in front of her impatiently, but was stopped by another girl.
Gu Chaoxi tilted his head. It was those three boys.
She looked towards the door leading to the lecture hall. The door was ajar, but it could not prevent the bright light outside from squeezing in.
There was a golden light on the ground.
She pursed her lips and walked towards the other side where the stage would go down.
When I pushed open the door of the lecture hall, I saw the bright sunshine and gentle breeze outside.
It looks like today is a good day.
If the cool breeze had not blown across her face, she might have almost forgotten that the New Year's Eve party was approaching!
Gu Chaoxi raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, then turned around to look at the scene in the lecture hall.
She simply stood against the door. If Pei Yan also came into this illusion, he could at least see her at a glance.
This period of time was not very long, because soon, Gu Chaoxi saw Pei Yan walking towards him from a distance.
Not only Pei Yan, but also the remaining three people.
"Why are we all in the same fantasy world?"
Qin Wei sighed and glanced into the lecture hall.
Gu Chaoxi was still leaning against the door without moving, just looking into the distance.
Something is unraveling.
She couldn't tell what those things were. They were like sand blown up by the wind, rolled up and then fell down, and then everything returned to calm.
The illusion in the distance is gradually collapsing.
Realizing this, Gu Chaoxi raised his hand and pointed in that direction.
"Soon, this place will be gone too."
Several people turned around to look, and just as she said, destruction was approaching them.
"Go in and take a look first, don't be in a hurry."
After Pei Yan finished speaking, he walked into the lecture hall.
"Let's go."
Qin Wei nodded and pulled Gu Chaoxi in again.
The entire lecture hall was brightly lit, and the three boys who had been targeted were now missing.
Gu Chaoxi thought about it and smiled.
There were people busy coming and going inside.
However, the number of these people gradually began to decrease, and once they walked out of the visible range, they never came back.
The sky and the earth seemed to tremble, and the light that originally came in from the gate disappeared in an instant.
Now looking towards the door, there is only endless darkness.
It seems that this darkness has no end.
Pei Yan just looked at him and then turned back.
"It seems that we have only tonight to solve the secret of the lecture hall."
Even the scope of their activities has been planned.
"bump!"
The surroundings fell into darkness, but before anyone could react, a beam of light shone down from the stage, right in the middle.
It seems like a place reserved for someone.
Gu Chaoxi simply found a seat and sat down. She was not in a hurry. She also wanted to see what kind of monsters were on the stage.
Several people sat down one after another, all observing their surroundings silently.
The surrounding scenery seemed to be slowly melting away until the entire sky above was pitch black.
It seems that the only things left in this space now are these seats and the stage in front.
Three shadows suddenly fell from above, hung by some silver threads.
"Puppet man?"
The three puppets on the stage all look particularly delicately carved.
The upper arms of these puppets are raised and parallel in the air, while their forearms are in a naturally drooping position.
Their heads were lowered forward, revealing only the smooth surface of the wood.
The puppet's legs also hang down naturally, as if there is no strength to support it at all.
Suddenly, each puppet began to sway.
The unsupported legs swayed left and right in the air, and a creaking sound came from the stage.
The stage seemed to be shaking.
These puppets look like they will fall from the sky at any second.
The original location of the red curtain also began to gradually disappear, leaving only a pitch-black area.
A face filled the entire position of the curtain, from light to dark, and the facial features of this face were Zhou Jianren.
Her eyes drooped slightly, with no luster in them, as if they were carved out.
But the mouth opened and closed slowly.
"Welcome all players to today's crazy stage."
"Player?" Gu Chaoxi tilted his head.
The characters in the other planes don't seem to call them that.
So, is this the will of the other world?
Several people leaned back in their chairs, quietly waiting for Zhou Jianren's next words.
But she seemed to be appreciating something, her eyes moving mechanically, looking at each person one by one.
