I am practicing in a weird world

　She looked more twisted than those students with shadow distortion, more powerful than those students with shadow distortion, and more weird than those students with shadow distortion.

　At this moment, Lin Lingniao looked at Xiao Yi quietly. Her face did not show the Shadow Twisted Student's signature weird smile, nor did she show any weird expression. She just stared at Xiao Yi quietly.

　But even such a calm gaze made Xiao Yi feel tremendous pressure.

　That was a feeling Xiao Yi had never experienced before. It was like looking out at the sea, and suddenly having a feeling that the other party was very huge.

　Is this the pressure of a strong person? Xiao Yi thought.

　The two stared at each other for a while, and then Lin Lingniao moved. She raised her hand and pointed in a direction.

　As she moved, her shadow instantly deformed, paving a path on the ground in the direction of her finger, extending into the distance.

　Xiao Yi looked at the road that Lin Lingniao pointed to. It was a road completely different from the direction of the school gate. This road was not a normal road. It passed through green grass and led to the distance. No one knew where it would eventually lead to.

　At this time, the shadow on the ground changed again, forming a line of text: Follow my path.

　Xiao Yi shook his head and said, "I'm not going your way. I'm going to the school gate. Please get out of my way."

　Lin Lingniao remained where she was and did not move away. She walked back and forth with a distressed look on her face.

　After a while, the forest bird stopped and walked back. The shape of its shadow changed again, and new words appeared: "Without seeing my true self, you cannot leave."

　True Self, a Buddhist term?

　Is Lin Lingniao trying to talk to me about Buddhism?

　I know nothing about Buddhism, what am I talking about?

　Instead of wasting time chatting here, I might as well walk out of the school gate first, otherwise when the dark fog rises, the road leading to the school gate will be gone.

　Xiao Yi no longer paid attention to the words on the ground. He opened his back and took something out of his backpack.

　It was a bundle of flashlights, tied together with scotch tape. There were more than twenty of them, each as big as a basketball. If all these flashlights were turned on, they could emit a beam of light as thick as a basketball.

　He said, "We are all classmates. Please move aside and don't force me to use my ultimate move. Once my light shines, all the shadows will be extinguished."

　Lin Lingniao looked at the weapon in Xiao Yi's hand, thought for a moment, and then put down his hand.

　As she moved, the chevaux de frise made of shadows suddenly turned back into shadows and sank into the shadow of the huge ancient tree behind her, but the shadow that pointed the way that stretched into the distance was still there.

　Xiao Yi walked quickly forward and headed towards the school gate.

　At this time, the shadow of Lin Lingniao moved again, and it formed a line of words on the ground: All appearances are false. If you see all appearances as non-appearances, you will see the Tathagata.

　Xiao Yi took a look at the words and ignored them. He walked past the words, passed by Lin Lingniao, and came to the school gate.

　He wanted to leave school, but there would be no way out after this point, so he had no time to care about these things.

　At this moment, under the light of the full moon, the school gate appears extremely clear. There is not a trace of fog here, just like an ordinary school gate.

　With a push of my hand, the school gate was suddenly pushed open, and the scene outside came into view. It was a familiar street and familiar shops.

　Everything I see is different from what I saw in the thick fog. The world in front of me is a familiar world, while the world in the fog is a strange world.

　There are streets and buildings outside, everything is clearly visible. This should be the way out.

　Xiao Yi took a step forward and immediately walked out of the school gate.

　As Xiao Yi walked out of the school gate, the scene in front of him suddenly spun and twisted. The streets were twisted, the houses were twisted, the earth was twisted, the sky was twisted, everything he saw was twisted, just like a whirlpool, spinning everything into a strange and bizarre shape.

　What is this phenomenon?

　Xiao Yi was puzzled.

　He had stepped out of the school gate before, but he did not see this phenomenon at that time. He only felt that the scenery in front of him suddenly began to change, and then he reappeared in the school.

　The phenomenon at that time was like opening the door from inside the house, with the street outside. As a result, when you stepped out, you found that you had opened the door from outside and returned to the house.

　Now, under the moonlight, he saw another phenomenon. He clearly saw that the surrounding scenery was distorted.

　The next moment, the distorted scene became clear again, and a familiar scene appeared in his eyes.

　He stood in the middle of a concrete road, surrounded by grass and trees, with a forest bird in front of him and the school gate behind the forest bird. He was back in the school.

　Chapter 1:

　Chapter 18 X Month X Day

　In front, Lin Lingniao was sitting on the grass with her feet together, a small notebook on her knees, and a pen in her hand, writing something in the notebook.

　Suddenly, Lin Lingniao seemed to notice something. She suddenly looked up and saw Xiao Yi. Then a smug expression appeared on her face, as if saying: I told you not to listen to me, and now you have hit your head against the wall.

　Xiao Yi ignored the expression on Lin Lingniao's face. He looked at the shadow on the ground. Under Lin Lingniao, a shadow separated and pointed straight into the distance.

　It goes straight ahead and looks like a pitch-black road, which is a different road from the direction of the school gate.

　Where will this road created by Lin Lingniao lead to?

　Lin Lingniao did not do anything against me. Since I couldn't leave the school using my own methods, I might as well listen to what Lin Lingniao said.

　Interest welled up in his heart, Xiao Yun walked directly to Lin Lingniao and asked, "Can you really leave school this way?"

　The shadows on the ground formed words: "No, but it can help you see the truth, and knowing the truth can help you leave school."

　"The truth, what is the truth?" Xiao Yi asked.

　The shadow formed words: "I can't explain it, and even if I did you wouldn't believe it. You need to see it for yourself."

　"Is there no danger?" Xiao Yi asked.

　The shadow on the ground shifted again: "There's generally no danger. If you feel your mind can't handle it, don't force it. There's nothing shameful about being a gigolo."

　"What? What about being a gigolo?"

　Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Lin Lingniao was talking about.

　The shadow formed words: "If you can't bear it anymore, you will have to eat gigolos."

　Xiao Yi wondered, "Why do you have to live off someone else when you can't handle it? Whose gigolo?"

　This time, Lin Lingniao stopped talking. Her face turned slightly red, and she lowered her head to read a book, no longer paying attention to Xiao Yi.

　Xiao Yi looked at the shadow on the ground. The shadow formed an arrow and extended into the distance. He took a step and walked in the direction indicated by the shadow.

　Lin Lingniao saw Xiao Yi walking along the path she indicated without hesitation, and her red lips curled up slightly, revealing a crescent smile.

　She took out a pen and wrote on the notebook on her knees: On the night of Xth day of Xth month, Xiao Yi finally listened to me. I was a little happy, but also a little hopeful that he couldn't bear it.

　In addition to the note I just wrote, there are other notes on the notebook, such as:

　On the morning of X/X, the class was an ancient Chinese literature class, and it was about Buddha, but I wasn't listening. I was drawing on the textbook, and the thing I drew was Xiao Yi.

　Xiao Yi is very handsome and looks gentle, but his eyes are very unruly, just like a tiger in a mountain stream. He is not listening to the class, but is playing with his mobile phone openly, but the teacher dare not do anything about it.

　What is Xiao Yi's world like? It must be different from mine. He and I are completely different. I am a good student who studies hard, while he is a bad student. But the amazing thing is that his achievements are not that bad.

　I didn't dare to talk to him because he seemed difficult to talk to and I was afraid of being scolded.

　On the morning of X/X, I was called by the head teacher to work. I needed to move a large pile of homework. The homework was so heavy and it was so troublesome. I didn’t want to move it, but I didn’t dare to refuse the teacher. After moving so much homework, my hands would definitely hurt.

　After walking for a while with my homework, I met Xiao Yi in the corridor. He actually took the initiative to help me carry my homework. I was so happy.

　At noon on Xth day of Xth month, the college entrance examination is getting closer and closer. My classmates are making their final sprint, and so am I. I often go to the library to review. Today, I actually saw a person who should not appear in the library. That was Xiao Yi. He was looking at the real college entrance examination questions from previous years, and he was looking at them very seriously. This is really incredible.

　At noon on X/X, I saw Xiao Yi in the library again. He seemed to have encountered a difficult problem and was pondering over the test questions. I talked to him on the pretext of helping him. He behaved very friendly, which was not consistent with his rebellious look at all.

　At noon on X/X, Xiao Yi and I studied together in the library. These days, Xiao Yi and I study together in the library every noon.

　On the afternoon of Xth day of Xth month, my friend told me not to get so close to Xiao Yi, saying that it was dangerous to get too close to a gangster like Xiao Yi, as I would be corrupted and be entangled by bad people in society. But Xiao Yi completely taught me bad things. He studied hard every day and was more diligent than most students.

　On the morning of X/X, a strange thick fog suddenly appeared in the school, and the teacher turned into a monster that could kill people with just a word. I was so scared that I dared not move in my seat, but Xiao Yi subdued the teacher. He was so handsome.

　On the morning of X/X, I ran out, but was trapped in the corridor by the crowd and could not escape from the teaching building. Crazy students were screaming in the corridor, and anyone who heard their screams would turn into a monster. I was very scared and shouted for help, and then Xiao Yi came to save me, like a prince charming.

　On the evening of X/X: My dormitory was breached by crazy students, and crazy roars entered my ears. I thought I was finished, but the result did not seem as bad as I imagined. I still had my rationality, but something seemed to have changed.

　The crazy students dispersed, but

　It was me who felt the calling, what was calling me?

　On the morning of X/X, Xiao Yi said he would treat me to breakfast. I was very happy, but then he not only dared to delete me as a friend, but also ate the breakfast he bought for me in front of me. I told him the truth about the world, but he treated me like this. I was so pissed off.

　On the evening of X/X, Xiao Yi came out at night. Not only did he not listen to my advice, he even dared to point such a big flashlight at me. It was really infuriating. Didn't he know that it was very impolite to shine strong light on others? But in the end, he didn't ask anything and chose the path I gave him. It was quite handsome. Since he is so handsome, I will forgive him for eating my breakfast.

　But he actually called me classmate, which is unforgivable. We have known each other for so long, and we should be friends after all.

　Closing the notebook, Lin Lingniao looked into the distance, confusion in his eyes: What on earth happened in our school? Why did it become like this? Can we really return to our daily lives after leaving the school?

　Xiao Yi walked forward along the dark shadow on the ground.

　He walked off the concrete road, onto the grass, and continued forward in the moonlight.

　Suddenly, dark fog began to rise. The fog rose from the shadows, from the shadows of trees, from the shadows of grass, from the shadows of buildings..., from the shadows everywhere.

　It was as if the shadow evaporated into black mist.

　As the black fog appeared, various strange noises began to appear: "Crunch, creak, snap..."

　These strange noises came from both far and near, some were far away in the distance, and some were right under your feet. In just a moment, the strange noises broke the silence of the night and spread throughout the entire campus.

　It was like a ghost waking up in the night.

　Xiao Yi took out his cell phone and looked at the time. It was twelve o'clock in the morning.

　The black fog has finally arrived. It rose at about the same time last night. Once the black fog rises, monsters will come out. We have to be quick.

　Xiao Yi started running.

　In a sports warehouse in front, the closed door was opened, and a group of people with distorted shadows walked out. The dark crowd poured out from the door, and the number was extremely large.

　These monsters looked around and immediately saw Xiao Yi. Then, the smiles on their faces began to twist and they rushed out frantically.

　With such a large number of people, anyone who stands in the way will be killed, and whoever stands in the way will die.

　Xiao Yi glanced at the students who were rushing towards him frantically, but he didn't look panicked at all and continued to rush forward.

　The monster came diagonally from the front, and Xiao Yi rushed forward, and the two of them suddenly approached each other at an extremely fast speed.

　Volume 1: Chapter 19: Crazy and Not Crazy

　When the monster was more than ten meters away from Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi took out the glass marbles and scattered them on the ground.

　Suddenly, a large number of glass marbles rolled on the ground and covered the ground.

　In front, the monster didn't even look at the ground, but stepped down with one foot, and immediately fell down like a rolling gourd, falling on the grass, several meters away from Xiao Yi.

　Xiao Yi rushed past, leaving the monster behind.

　Continuing forward, a wall appeared in front of Xiao Yi. It was the school wall. The black shadow on the ground went straight through the wall and led outside the wall.

　Xiao Yi stopped in front of the wall and looked at the shadow on the ground passing through the wall with a look of shock.

　This is the school wall, which is more than three meters high and made of concrete. There is no foothold to climb up.

　This is the school wall. It’s so high. How can I get through it?

　Xiao Yi's face showed difficulty.

　Behind him, the crazy students who had fallen down had stood up again and were rushing towards him frantically. At a glance, a large area was filled with crazy smiles.

　It is impossible to run back. The only way out is to break through this wall, but this wall is so high, how can I climb it?

　I am about 1.8 meters tall. I don’t know if I can climb up the wall with the help of the running momentum. As long as I can grab the top of the wall with my hands, I can climb over the wall.

　Xiao Yi began to retreat, and after retreating to a certain distance, he suddenly charged forward.

　His figure was like a hurricane, rushing to the wall in an instant and then jumping up.

　Just as he jumped into the air, he suddenly kicked out with his right foot and stepped towards the wall. He wanted to use the power of this kick to increase the height of his jump again so that he could grab the top of the wall.

　He stepped on the wall, and then Xiao Yi's entire foot passed through the wall in an instant. Following his foot, his body passed through the wall.

　Xiao Yi just passed through the middle of the wall.

　"boom!"

　Xiao Yi landed on the ground and took several steps forward unsteadily.

　He turned and looked behind him, his face full of surprise.

　Behind him, the tall wall was still there, without a trace of damage, but he passed through the wall, he passed through the wall directly.

　How is this going?

　He turned around and reached out to touch the wall, and the next moment, his hand actually passed through the wall.

　He looked back and saw the school ahead. He had not yet reached the school.
