Chapter 11: The Call From h.e.l.l (9).

Things were going towards a bad direction.

Xu Shenxing looked at the exam paper and felt a little puzzled.

He understood every word, but when he looked at the sentences, he completely blanked out, unable to figure out what they meant.

As a hero who once saved the world, he suddenly thought that when compared with the make-up exams, maybe holding his sword and fighting with demons would be a more easier choice.

The location of the make-up exam was in a ladder cla.s.sroom. Under the eyes of a teacher, the cla.s.sroom was silent. He could only hear the busy scratching of pens on paper.

Because it was a unified make-up exam of all grades, in addition to the amazing failure rate of Advanced Mathematics, there were a lot of students in the ladder cla.s.sroom. If he had prepared to deceive the educator, it would have been possible that the teacher wouldn’t catch him cheating.

However, he was busy investigating the case all day yesterday. He didn’t even review the math book, not to mention preparing to cheat.

Did he really have to copy other examinees paper by using his super sight? However, even if he did that, it was also too likely to be spotted by the teacher…

Otherwise, should he secretly sneak into the teacher’s office to change his scores after the teacher finished grading his test? Viewing his abilities and skills, it wouldn’t be a difficult thing.

Xu Shenxing was in a dilemma. However, several black ants suddenly climbed up Xu Shenxing’s draft paper from an unknown corner. Under Xu Shenxing’s surprised sight, they suddenly transformed to ink and the ink arranged into some standard typefaces – they were the answers of the test.

Xu Shenxing raised up his head and saw Qin Xingyan just pa.s.sing way the doorway of the cla.s.sroom. The girl nodded slightly when she observed Xu Shenxing’s sight, then left in a hurry.

With a heart filled with grat.i.tude, Xu Shenxing copied the answers till he thought that it was enough for him to pa.s.s the make-up exam, then he handed in his paper to the teacher, leaving the ladder cla.s.sroom under the jealous eyes of other students.

After a few steps, he saw that Qin Xingyan waiting for him at the stairs.

“Thank you! I will treat you to stinky tofu.” Xu Shenxing saluted with his hands folded. He was trying to imitate the action in Ancient Costume movies.

“Why stinky tofu?”

Qin Xingyan felt both amused yet annoyed to hear his words.

“If you don’t like it, cold noodle or pancake is also not a problem.”

“They are all just snacks. Your words are too empty of sincerity…”

“Ha ha, it’s because my wallet is a little shy.” Xu Shenxing knew that she was just kidding, so he smiled. “Oh right, your spell is really amazing!”

“It’s just a simple trick… By the way, I have not yet seen you use any spell, senpai.”

Qin Xingyan asked curiously, “Senpai, what’s your supernatural ability? Is it one of the five basic elements?”

Xu Shenxing shook his head with a forced smile.

“Are you practicing the flying sword just like me?”

Xu Shenxing shook his head again with a forced smile.

“Are you practicing the lightning spells… eh, for example, the hand lightning?”

Xu Shenxing yet again shook his head with a forced smile.

“Divination… No, if you know it, we have had found the suspect. Are you practicing the the Yin Yang Dun or the Great Way?”

Xu Shenxing shook his head with the same forced expression.

“…I don’t think it’s likely, but senpai, are you already reaching immortality ?”

“Eh… you can say that.”

Because Xu Shenxing saw a suspicious look on her face, in addition to his power obtained from another world was really a little like kungfu, so he said equivocally.

However, he did not know because of the lacking of Spirit Qi in this era, it was already exceedingly difficult to reach immortality by practicing kungfu.

“Really?! No wonder you are so good at fighting…”

Qin Xingyan felt like she was having a little difficult time accepting it.

How to say it… it was a little like you were enjoying the fun of hunting in South Africa, then suddenly saw a dinosaur. Yes, it wasn’t surprising to be killed by a dinosaur, but it was still too surreal and awful…

“Is it fine to let Moli stay at home alone?” Qin Xingyan tried to change to another topic.

“She also has to go to school. She is studying in the Second Middle School of Jiangjin City.”

Xu Shenxing scratched his head and said, “It would be fine if she leaves me during the daytime.”

Qin Xingyan didn’t find the specific meanings in Xu Shenxing’s words. She simply thought that it was a proof of their good relations.h.i.+p.

“By the way, where’s the White-Hart Taoist Temple? Is it very far?” Xu Shenxing tried to find a new topic when he found that they were in an awkward silence again.

“Not too far, If I ride on my sword, I can go back to my sect within a day. It would be a bit slower if I took a long-distance bus – about a day and a night. Because the location of my sect is in the countryside, it would take a long time  waiting for the bus.”

Qin Xingyan’s long and thin fingers touched her own lips as she recalled.

“So as you say, if you rode on your sword, you could return to your sect in a day. I think it isn’t a long time.” Xu Shenxing asked curiously, “Why did you say that it’s too late to return to your sect last night?”

“Because the suspect has already kidnapped nine girls. Nine means the end of the single digits, and it’s also the beginning of a cycle. In most cases, evil spells just need at most nine sacrifices.” Qin Xingyan said seriously, “The proof is that the missing case happened every day before yesterday, but no missing case happened yesterday.”

Xu Shenxing considered for a moment. He thought that she may as well be right.

If there was a new missing case happened yesterday, Xiao Zhengyi would have sent him a new message.

“You mean, it’s likely that the suspect will save the ghost master today or  tomorrow?”

“Yes. In recent days, there were no Yin days. Besides, he can’t imprison the missing people too long before he gives himself away. So, it’s very possible that he will take action either today or tomorrow.”

Qin Xingyan gravely nodded.

“No matter what will happen, let’s ask the G.o.d of Land first. Maybe she has found the location of the suspect.”

Xu Shenxing also felt a bit hasty after he heard the girl’s words. They went to the abandoned dormitory together.

On the way, four-eyes monitor, the fatso, the big fellow and “monkey” looked at them and felt dumbfounded.

“My G.o.d, I thought that Xu Shenxing was as honest as wood! I had never expected that he would find a girlfriend before us!” The four-eyes monitor shrieked.

“The girl is ‘G.o.ddess’ Song’s roommate.” The fatso rolled his eyes and thought of something.

“This direction… Do they want to go to the hill?” The big fellow scratched his head and said with a m.u.f.fled tone.

The fatso said in surprise, “Is this the legendary illicit s.e.xua…”

“Shut up! Please give us single dogs1 a chance to live!” “Monkey” shouted with tears in his eyes.
