Chapter 317 Unknown Body and Bronze Pillar

It was a sound beyond limits.

The screams, full of despair and fear, resounded through the entire teaching building in an instant.

Everyone stopped their movements.

"what happened?"

"Someone is calling, I don't know what happened!"

The students in the corridor looked at each other and quickly ran towards the classroom.

Liu Ping turned around without hesitation, mixed with the crowd to the front of the classroom, and looked inside.

I saw a male student standing on a chair, apologetically speaking to the surroundings:
"Hahaha, sorry, just fell asleep on the table and had a nightmare."

The squad leader said angrily: "Chen Xiaoming, do you know what you are doing? What happened just now made everyone very worried!"

The male student repeatedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it."

It turned out to be a dream!
"cut!"

"coward!"

"It's scary, it's just a dream!"

The students who were watching were bored and dispersed.

At this time, the teachers also came. After learning the whole story, they inquired about it. Seeing that there was nothing wrong, they educated a few words and left.

Liu Ping glanced at the boy named Chen Xiaoming, and saw two lines of small characters above his head:

"Unknown body (parasitic)."

"After the soul is eaten, the body is left empty, completely occupied by the unknown body."

Without hesitation, Liu Ping turned around and walked towards the office at the end of the corridor.

Shouldn't the real world be under the protection of the prison knife?

According to the prison knife, before the birth of the dimension card——

The real world should be safe!
Why are there bronze pillars and unknown bodies running out?
suddenly.

The voice of the prison knife sounded in his heart:
"Don't ask me anything, I can't say a word."

"Why?" Liu Pingmo asked.

"Because there is no scabbard!" The Prison Knife said with emotion, "Without a scabbard, you will not be protected by me, and you will not be able to hear the truth directly."

scabbard?
Liu Ping recalled that there was a unique power on the scabbard of the prison knife, called silence.

"—Whoever holds this knife can hear all the secrets and fear nothing."

It seems that I have to speed up to find clues.

The office door was open.

Liu Ping still knocked on the door and shouted: "Report to the teacher!"

"Come in."

Liu Ping walked in and stood still in front of the head teacher's desk.

"The application for the work-study program has come down, take a look at this form, and sign if there is no problem."

"Okay, thank you teacher."

Liu Ping thanked.

——How can I have time to work and study?
At that time, the bronze pillar appeared outside the classroom. In order to cover up his strange expression, he said that he would work part-time and study.

Okay.

This dug a hole for itself.

It is not advisable to repent suddenly, it is very easy to attract suspicion, especially that the unknown body has become one's classmate.

A little bit of strangeness may attract its attention.

Liu Ping picked up the form and read it carefully.

Pretty easy.

Starting today, after school, we will clean up the martial arts arena and tidy up public storage rooms and warehouses.

There are 600 yuan per month.

As long as this job is completed, you can also get the school's relief subsidy for poor students, which is about 800 yuan.

It adds up to 1400, which is enough for one person's living expenses.

Liu Ping signed and said again:
"Thank you teacher for giving me this opportunity."

The head teacher accepted the form and said with a smile:

"Study hard, try to get into a good university, go."

"Yes."

Liu Ping walked out of the office, returned to the classroom again, and sat down in his seat.

The bronze pillars outside the window are still shrouded in mist.

No monsters appeared on the bronze pillar anymore, only an unknown body named "Chen Xiaoming" blended into the crowd.

Liu Ping suddenly felt a little strange.

The Pillars of Purgatory and Eternal Night are full of heroic spirits, and they are the pillars that protect the world.

This bronze pillar gives me the feeling that it is almost the same as the eternal night pillar, but why does an unknown body appear from above?
Liu Ping closed his eyes, quietly recalling every scene that happened before.

At the beginning.

The bronze pillar did not appear.

It appeared suddenly after he used his soul power to activate the frost cage.

Could this bronze pillar be able to perceive the power fluctuations on the mysterious side?

Liu Ping talked to the tablemate, and stared at the unknown body named Chen Xiaoming out of the corner of his eye.

I saw him lying on the table, motionless.

The top door of his head suddenly split open on both sides, and a floating eye protruded out.

The eyeball slowly turned, scanning the entire classroom.

No one noticed.

Jingle Bell--

The school bell rings.

The students stood up one after another and walked outside the classroom.

"This is PE class, we have to gather downstairs!" The tablemate patted Liu Ping on the shoulder and said.

"Okay, let's go." Liu Ping smiled.

The two stood up and walked out of the classroom with other students.

Chen Xiaoming was still lying on the table.

Someone greeted him: "Let's go, Chen Xiaoming, it's time for physical education class."

Chen Xiaoming remained silent.

The man came over and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you want to ask for leave?"

"Please... leave, please help me to ask for a leave." Chen Xiaoming said dumbly.

"Okay." The classmate said.

Liu Ping listened silently, and soon left the classroom with other students.

He stood on the playground and recalled everything that happened just now.

Everyone has left the classroom.

But the unknown still doesn't move.

It always feels like it's there.

What's in the classroom?
Everyone left and came down for physical education class.

There is no one for it to search.

It's all a bunch of high school kids, and there's nothing worthwhile about it.

and many more!

Could it be that it is guarding the bronze pillar?
Things might go something like this:

He activated his soul power, released the frost spell that contained mysterious side power, and suppressed several boys at once.

The bronze pillar sensed the mysterious side force, appeared and came to him.

The unknown body guarding the bronze pillar immediately began to investigate, looking for the existence that called the bronze pillar.

By mistake, it found Chen Xiaoming.

It mistakenly thought that Chen Xiaoming was the one calling for the bronze pillar, so it ate Chen Xiaoming's soul and parasitized in Chen Xiaoming's body.

just now.

After it ate the soul and occupied the body, it should have obtained Chen Xiaoming's memory, and knew that it had made a mistake.

So it continues to guard the bronze pillar!
It is waiting, waiting for the person who really called the bronze pillar to appear!
After pondering for a moment, Liu Ping felt that this conjecture was very likely to be correct.

When the unknown body left the bronze pillar, I immediately felt that the bronze pillar was no longer a threat, and there was even a feeling of wanting to get close.

——This feeling is very familiar, just like the eternal night pillar.

So……

If you are close to the bronze pillar...

Chen Xiaoming will definitely kill himself, and then devour his soul.

It's a pity that the ability of "seeing and hearing is like a name" only sees that it is a parasite of Chen Xiaoming's body, but does not see its specific level.

If you really can't beat it, it will be troublesome.

...have to figure out a way to lure it away.

Liu Ping was thinking silently, and before he knew it, a physical education class was over.

The get out of class bell rang again.

"After school!"

Someone cheered.

The students walked towards the school gate in twos and threes.

The entire teaching building is full of students who are coming downstairs after school.

Several students came over and asked, "Is it Liu Ping?"

"It's me." Liu Ping said.

"We are all work-study students. Today you are responsible for cleaning the warehouse. How about it?"

"Ok."

Liu Ping took the key, walked across the playground, and came to the warehouse.

He carefully cleaned the walls and the floor, then returned to the playground and handed over the key to a classmate in charge.

"Tomorrow is still this time." The classmate said.

"Okay, I won't be late." Liu Ping said.

He looked at the teaching building from the corner of his eye.

At this time, the people in the teaching building were basically gone.

Chen Xiaoming stood in the corridor, staring at the whole campus coldly.

All of Liu Ping's things were placed in the classroom, so he could only go upstairs and go back to the classroom to pack his things.

As he walked up the steps step by step, thoughts kept popping up in his mind.

Although the unknown body is strong, it has found the wrong person.

This proves that it can't perceive people who really have mysterious side power, and can only pass through constant temptation.

But the bronze pillar was very sensitive, as soon as I released the mysterious spell, it immediately appeared and leaned over.

The unknown body followed the bronze pillar.

Wherever the bronze pillar is, it will guard there, and will not let anyone get close at all.

Is there any way to get around it?How can I get close to the bronze pillar?

Liu Ping walked to the fifth floor.

This is the floor where their class is located.

He walked all the way to the door of the classroom along the corridor, greeted Chen Xiaoming and said:

"I haven't come home yet."

Chen Xiaoming sized him up, grinned and said, "Could the person I'm waiting for be you?"

"Me? Do you have anything to do with me?" Liu Ping asked.

"Everyone is saying that you easily defeated several classmates. Thinking about it this way, your strength must be very impressive."

Chen Xiaoming moved his body and observed Liu Ping's expression carefully.

Liu Ping sighed silently in his heart.

The previous incident really caught the monster's attention.

"Liu Ping, let's fight and let me see how good you are." He said.

Liu Pingdao: "The teacher has already told me specifically that I won't let me fight anymore - if you really want to fight, wait until the martial arts class."

"No, you can only fight with me today, unless you want to die."

Chen Xiaoming walked slowly towards Liu Ping.

Liu Ping smiled and said, "If you really want to fight—"

He shut up suddenly.

Chen Xiaoming also stopped, and looked back slowly.

At the other end of the corridor, Zhao Xiao led seven or eight boys walking towards them.

Zhao Xiao followed a burly boy with tattoos on his body, pointed at Liu Ping and said:
"Brother Ma, this is the transfer student. We said we would confess, but he didn't listen."

The burly boy spat his cigarette butt on the ground, and said with a half-smile: "Very well, I will let him know who is the boss of this school."
