This Damned Thirst for Survival

After eating in the school canteen for a month, Jiang Luo finally understood why Ye Xun and Lu Youyi were moved to tears when they ate shredded potatoes with hot and sour sauce.

After they finished their meal, they bought another flower cake to take back to their companions.

Jiang Luo and Lu Youyi enter through a small door and see a group of students standing in the lobby without saying a word, all as nervous as if they were teachers.

A cold voice came from the far end of the crowd, “This fox fairy offering platform is Min Nan Which school student put it up? Take it down.”

Lu Youyi whispered, “It is customary in Min Nan to make offerings to the Fox Fairy.”

One student came forward with a red face, “Mr. Feng, this is what I offer. But I made it in my own room, why should I take it down?”

“You broke the rules,” Feng Li said lightly, “If you know how to worship the fox fairy, why don’t you see if this is the right place to do it.”

Feng Li’s tone was not harsh, but it made people tense up and not dare to look at him.

Jiang Luo and Lu Youyi hid behind the crowd and watched the action as Feng Li and the other judges seemed to be checking the students’ rooms one by one. The students were scared to death that they would be checked out.

Lu Youyi pokes Jiang Luo: “You didn’t bring anything illegal, did you?”

Jiang Luo: “There was nothing, nothing at all.”

Lu Youyi said reassuringly, “I don’t have anything with me either, so if you want a talisman, you can buy one from you, and if you want to make a weapon, you can ask Kuang Zheng.

Jiang Luo : “……” Then you’re not quite the same as me, being poor.

The two of them figured that the judges would be checking their floor soon, so they went back to their room first. Jiang Luo had gone to deliver flower cakes to Ye Xun and when he returned, Lu Youyi was sitting on the sofa watching TV, telling him, “They’ve finished checking.”

Jiang Luo was slightly surprised: “So soon?”

Lu Youyi nodded and waved the paper in his hand, “The competition notice is also here.”

There are three levels of the competition, the first of which starts in three days’ time and is about breaking a formation in a place called Hu Bu Village1.

On the paper there is a photograph of the exterior of the village and a few words of introduction. The village is a gossip village, with houses and roads laid out in a nine-gong, eight-trigram formation that is easy to enter but difficult to leave, so outsiders entering the village are like entering a maze and often lose their way.

The first level is just the basics, testing the basic knowledge and skills of the participants. The entry requirements state that participants may not carry any tools other than a compass.

Jiang Luo looked at the thick pile of Fu Lu in his bag and fell into silence.

He doesn’t feel very safe if he can’t take Fu Lu with him.

It is not that the village of Hu Bu is not safe, but the evil spirit that is hiding somewhere is not safe.

A month ago, Jiang Luo said he would torture Chi You all night long, so he really tortured Chi You all night long with Fu Lu.

Chi You grows weaker and weaker, the mist turns from thick to light, the Fu Lu that burns on him falls to the ground in a thick layer of paper dust, but his laughter becomes more and more wildly distorted.

“Interesting.” Chi You laughed before disappearing.

For a whole month, Chi You had never shown up, so he must have been hurt by Jiang Luo. Jiang Luo can already imagine how crazy and unscrupulous that madman will be when he recovers and retaliates even more cruelly.

Jiang Luo Are you scared?

Naturally, the answer is no.

Every night before he went to bed during this month of desperate study, he remembered the eighteen times he had been killed by Chi You.

Jiang Luo’s heart was high with resentment and anger, eighteen times, and he hadn’t even paid it back.

Chi You is so kind and gentle, how can Jiang Luo take advantage of him?

Three days later, Jiang Luo boarded a bus to the village of Hu Bu.

The village of Hu Bu is forty kilometres out of the city and the bus took two to three hours to reach its destination. Jiang Luo and about twenty unknown participants followed the staff to the entrance, where the staff said, “The duration of this competition is twenty-four hours in total, and participants need to go to the eye of the formation to find the small flags we have left behind and walk out of the Tiger Step Village with them. If the participants fail to walk out of Tiger Step Village within 24 hours, they will be eliminated straight away.”

Jiang Luo looks at the time, it will be 3pm.

There are a total of eight entrances into Tiger Step Village, and although there are as many as one hundred and eighty participants, the internal layout of Tiger Step Village is connected vertically and horizontally, so after entering the village, I am afraid that none of the one hundred and eighty people will meet anyone and will have to leave Tiger Step Village on their own.

The staff member said, “Just a reminder that the entire tournament will be streamed live on our intranet site.”

Live streaming?

Jiang Luo is thoughtful.

If there was a live stream, it would in turn ensure his safety to some extent.

After the announcement of the start of the race, the participants rushed impatiently into the village of Tigersteps.

Jiang Luo follows quietly behind the crowd.

Everyone took out their compasses and in a few moments there were only a few people left. Jiang Luo also took out his compass, but instead of looking at the compass, he looked up at the sky.

As the saying goes, Taiji gives birth to two yi, two yi gives birth to four elephants, four elephants give birth to eight trigrams, eight trigrams and change the 64 lines, which change in many ways, and the cycle repeats itself ②. The eye of the formation is the core of the eight trigrams, and it is logical to go to the centre, but when you are in it, the road to the village is complex and changing, and it seems to be broken.

Jiang Luo looked up and saw, without the aid of a compass, a Jin Guang in the centre of the Bagua Formation, which was the brightest signpost of all.

But no one seems to have seen this Jin Guang at the eye of the formation except him.

Jiang Luo followed Jin Guang, not putting the compass away even though he couldn’t use it. It felt as if he had turned on a cheat, the answer was right in front of him waiting to be picked. Jiang Luo was on target, and after taking an unknown number of left and right turns, he was gradually left with only himself.

Someone on the site that was watching the live stream gradually noticed his oddity.

[This dude is a bit of a monster]

[He doesn’t even seem to be using the compass much? Damn, from the aerial view he looks faster than Qi Ye!

[? Upstairs is exaggerating]

[Oooooooooh beauty brother kisses, brother’s face well licked]

[I’ll lick the screen straight up! I declare I’m living in this live room!

[Help, who is he, look good, cry cry cry]

[We’re a proper website, above the restraint. The more this guy looks at it, the more he doesn’t really read the compass! The best of the best, the best of the best are really in the people]

[Ask if you don’t understand, how can you get out of the Bagua Formation without reading the compass?]

In the judges’ room, several judges also noticed Jiang Luo.

Feng Li scans through the many shots in a single glance, slowly settling on the dark-haired young man.

The dark-haired youth walked calmly between the paths, his mind steady, glancing into the air every now and then, if the paths were impassable, then retreating back to where he had come from, his sense of direction actually never drifting, as he slowly approached the eye of the formation.

Zhuo Zhengyu, the head of the Zhuo family, who was beside Feng Li, saw the doorway and whispered to Feng Li, “This young man is remarkable.”

He then looked at his daughter, Zhuo Zhongqiu, who was not slow either, but when the two were compared in terms of their methods of finding the eyes of the formation, his daughter was immediately left behind by a few blocks.

Feng Li responded with a calm, “Good talent.”

” Zhong Qiu told me about this boy,” Zhuo Zhengyu said, “he is also a disciple of your Feng family.”

Feng Li raised his eyebrows in slight surprise, then revealed a subtle smile, “So you’re a disciple of the Feng family.”

By the time Jiang Luo had completed a third of the journey, it was 6pm and he was looking for a place to rest and have dinner.

There happened to be a humble resting place nearby. Jiang Luo put his things down and pulled a box of self-heating pots out of his bag, and when they were almost ready, a boy came outside.

The boy is sharp-edged and untamed, with a fleshy look of annoyance. He has a compass in his hand, and when he sees Jiang Luo he stares, then frowns as if he can’t believe that someone could have gotten here before him.

“Who are you?” The boy asked in a bad tone.

Jiang Luo gives him a sideways glance, not bothering to speak, the ends of his eyes retracting.

[Aaaahhhh beauty brother you electrocute me!

[Eating watermelon with a bench, fighting and fighting]

The two of them have met, Qi Ye, this temper is over, this is definitely going to be a fight].

Qi Ye was so lightly glanced at that his mind almost exploded with irritation like a handful of oil poured on it. He suppressed his temper, “Hey, I’m asking you a question.”

The self-heating pot’s heat slowly stops and Jiang Luo breaks off his chopsticks and lifts the lid to prepare his meal.

The scent of the aroma caught Qi Ye’s nose on the wind, and before Qi Ye’s grumpy temper could escape, his stomach rumbled disgracefully.

His face stiffened, obviously a little embarrassed, and he stood sullenly by himself without speaking.

Jiang Luo, as if he didn’t exist, comfortably finishes his meal and finally tidies up the rubbish so as not to pollute the place.

After dinner, the sun has set. Jiang Luo looks up at the sky and decides to stay in the pavilion for the night until early tomorrow morning.

If Jiang Luo could not see this Jin Guang after dark, his day’s work would be wasted.

What I didn’t expect was that the quick-tempered-looking boy also entered the gazebo, looking like he had the same intentions as Jiang Luo.

The two men did their own thing and settled down peacefully, much to the disappointment of the pop-ups who wanted to see what was going on, but then a striking comment popped up in the pop-ups.
