The end of the world begins with failing an exam

It wasn't until this moment that Chen Boxu noticed something strange about Chen Jing.

I don't know when it started, but Chen Jing's clear eyes were filled with mist, and tears streaked silently on his face.

The expression of inexplicable sadness made Chen Boxu's heart tighten.

"What’s wrong with you??!"

"have no idea……"

The moment Chen Jing saw Bai Aji, an uncontrollable grief surged in his heart.

It was as if his heart was suddenly crushed by some unknown force, and tears of sorrow and sadness poured out almost instantly without even realizing it.

He couldn't identify the source of the emotion.

He didn't understand why he was sad.

But he was sure.

In Bai Aji's vertical pupils filled with violence and madness, he saw something that could not be described in words...

Sadness as deep as the dead sea.

"It seems like I have lost a lot of things..."

Ignoring the old man's stop, Chen Jing suddenly reached out his hand and caressed Bai Aji's rotten and cracked face, revealing the skeleton.

"it……"

"is crying……"

Chapter 44 Countdown to return to reality

Do not know why.

Chen Jing firmly believes that he has some kind of connection with Bai Aji.

Even if there is no evidence to prove his conjecture, he firmly believes in it...

The kind of resonance that seems to be caused by the contact of souls, the kind of sadness that is contagious to each other.

Everything made Chen Jing forget his fear.

In his eyes, this terrifying creature that could blaspheme the eyes of gods was indescribably sad.

"You bastard!" Chen Bofu hurriedly pulled back Chen Jing's hand and took him two steps back. "You don't know the severity! What if that beast bites you!"

"Will not."

Chen Jing had stopped crying at this moment, his red eyes were as clear as ever, and he even showed a confident smile to appease the old man.

"It's my Baiaji, how could it bite me?"

"you……"

"There is nothing wrong with our summoning. Baiaji is it, but it is no longer what it was at the beginning..." Chen Jing said softly, with many messy and illogical text fragments pouring out of his mind, "But I am sure it is It won’t hurt me!”

"Are you sure?" Chen Bofu looked at Bai Aji suspiciously.

"I'm sure." Chen Jing said firmly, and then gently patted the back of the old man's hand, "Grandpa, it's really okay. Please let me go and take a look..."

Chen Bofu hesitated for a moment and finally let go.

After careful and rigorous identification, he could determine that Baiaji was different from those polluted species.

The aura is completely different... No, to be precise, Baiaji does not have any energy aura.

Just like it rotted like a corpse.

It seems really dead.

Without energy breath, induction cannot occur.

There is only a smell that even ordinary people can smell, filling the air with its appearance.

If there is, if there is not.

Decay and decay.

It resembles those ancient ruins in the wasteland that have been forgotten by the world.

without any exaggeration.

Chen Boxu had never seen such a strange creature, and had never even heard of it.

"Bai Aji."

Chen Jing walked up to the monster and patted its neck gently.

"Stop crying."

Hearing this, Chen Boxu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, wondering if this boy was "fascinated" by this monster.

This bitch keeps staring at you, as if it wants to tear you into pieces... You actually think it's crying? !

"My dear grandson, why don't you come here first and let's stay away from this guy? I always feel that you are being..."

Before Chen Boxu could finish his words, the monster suddenly raised its head and let out a shrill, low-pitched neigh that sounded like a horse's braying or a bull's roar.

"Be good...it's okay..." Chen Jing caressed Baiaji's face and comforted him softly, "Don't cry..."

As if he was sure that the "master" in front of him was really not afraid of him, Bai Aji lowered his head and rubbed his face affectionately against Chen Jing, making a whimpering sound in his throat.

at this time.

Wei Nan, who had run away, had already run back quickly.

She looked around Baiaji with both curiosity and fear. She wanted to touch it but didn't have the courage.

"This guy looks so disgusting."

Wei Nan was still not that good at talking, and her extremely sincere comments made Bai Aji instantly turn his head to look at her, his vertical pupils filled with undisguised anger, as if he would bite her neck off at any moment.

"Hey, I'm still angry..." Wei Nan was very discerning, and calmly retreated behind Chen Bofu and used the old man as a talisman, "Ajing, take care of this guy, I feel like he doesn't look at me very well. friendly……"

You are so good at talking, it’s no wonder you can be so friendly!

Chen Jing rolled his eyes at Wei Nan and was too lazy to say anything. He was totally focused on worshiping Aji.

Although as Wei Nan said, Bai Aji looks a little disgusting, but Chen Jing doesn't think it does. Instead, he thinks it's quite cute.

Yes.

cute.

This adjective, which has nothing to do with it, has been nailed to it by Chen Jing.

Perhaps feeling Chen Jing's sincere affection, Bai Aji suddenly lowered his head and slowly opened his mouth, stretched out a tongue full of eyeballs from his mouth, and licked Chen Jing affectionately a few times.

"Okay." Chen Jing pushed him away without changing his expression. Although he still maintained the gentle smile on his face, it could be seen from the twitching corners of his mouth that his heart was not so peaceful.

"Be good, it will be disrespectful to lick it again."

Bai Aji's oral structure should be similar to that of a horse, but that tongue really made Chen Jing a little overwhelmed.

After all, his trypophobia has never gotten better since he was a child.

Thousands of eyeballs the size of peanuts were crowded on the tongue. This scene reminded Chen Jing of the negative toad he had seen in documentaries.

At this moment, Chen Bofu finally felt relieved and believed for the time being that the monster would not hurt Chen Jing.

"What's the use of this guy?" Chen Bofu lit a cigarette and squatted on the flower bed like a streetwalker. While smoking, he looked at Bai Aji. "It looks like he can fight well, right?"

"Probably." Chen Jing scratched his head and said in a very uncertain tone, "Since it can fly, maybe it can fly with me..."

"You summoned a plane because of your feelings, right?" Chen Boxu couldn't help but complain.

"Nonsense."

Chen Jing corrected him sternly and patted the head of the horse that kept rubbing against Bai Aji.

“It can fly and fight, it’s called a fighter jet!”

"..."

Chen Bofu held the cigarette holder in his mouth and didn't know how to spit it out. In the end, he had to look back at Wei Nan who was hiding beside him.

"Can you stay away from me, like a ghost behind my back..."

"Don't I think it's safer to be with you?" Wei Nan said without changing his expression, completely forgetting what shame means. "Just now I scolded it for being disgusting. It must have resented me. Its eyes are so fucking unreasonable. It’s so fierce…”

"I remember you were pretty good too, right?" Chen Bofu bumped Wei Nan with his elbow, raised his chin and pointed at Bai Aji, "Come on, do it!"

"You...Grandpa Chen, don't joke with me."

Forced by the disparity in strength between the two parties, Wei Nan chose to politely change his words. He was obviously extremely embarrassed but did not change his expression.

"I can't even feel that guy's breath, which means it must be stronger than me. If I go up to fuck it, I might be chewed up by it, including the flesh and bones."

"Oh, you are quite aware of current affairs."

"Nonsense, I'm nicknamed both wise and brave!"

Wei Nan smiled crookedly and was about to say a few more words when he saw Chen Bofu looking over with an unkind expression.

Only then did she realize that the old man in front of her was not someone she could talk about, so she hurriedly changed the subject.

"By the way... last time I saw that the signature on the property fee receipt you gave me was stupid. Do you think you can take it back and change it?"

"I think it's pretty good. It's very appropriate. No need to change it."

"..."

"grandfather."

When he heard Chen Jing calling him, the mocking expression on Chen Boxu's face instantly changed back to his kind-hearted one.

"What's up, my dear grandson?"

"It's almost dinner time, let's go home..."

Chen Jing was inexplicably anxious at this moment, completely different from the way he patiently communicated with Bai Aji before.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Chen Bofu stubbed out the cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can ten meters away. "Are you hungry?"

"Well... I'm hungry..."

Chen Jing tried his best to put on a fairly natural smile on his face. Looking at the light curtain in front of him that only he could see, he felt a huge headache.

So stupid...

How could I forget this one? !

[Countdown to return: 3 hours, 00 minutes and 00 seconds]

——

Chapter 45 Luncheon before return

Perhaps because of the special settings of the examination room, within three hours before the candidates return to the real world, the light curtain showing the countdown will not close and will always exist in a semi-transparent manner in the upper right corner of the candidates' sight.

I have to say that this reminder is very considerate, because Chen Jing had forgotten about it before. If it hadn't suddenly popped up to remind...

"Three hours."

In the living room of the Chen family, Wei Nan sat cross-legged on the sofa with no acknowledgment, holding a bag of snacks similar to potato chips in his hand, eating while watching TV, and occasionally glanced sideways at the kitchen calmly. .

"Ajing, what's delicious to eat today?"

"have no idea……"

Chen Jing seemed to be in a daze sitting in the corner of the sofa. His right hand sometimes clenched and sometimes unclenched his fist. Although the expression on his face was not strange, people who knew him well could feel that... he was a little anxious and uneasy.

Three hours later.

Chen Jing will leave the "examination room" and return to the real world.

So... what should we do in the other world?
