“Classmates, today's lesson is the Disc Spirit game!”
Lu Yibei couldn't help but slightly furrow her brow when she heard Pharaoh say they were going to play the Disc Spirit game again.
Why is it the Disc Spirit game again?
Why are they so fixated on this game that doesn't look very safe or auspicious?
Not long ago, Lu Yibei touched the oil painting and entered a special state, seeing Zhao Ke being bullied. Through this game, he summoned a strange existence and asked it to help kill the classmates who bullied him.
And the appearance of the paper figure Strange Tale with Xu Feng's appearance proved that Zhao Ke's wish was indeed fulfilled.
But what about after that?
How did Zhao Ke, as a simp, manage to turn the tables, sing his praises, and ride on the goddess Lin Yiqi?
Lu Yibei felt that the missing important link was the Disc Spirit game he played. Besides the past she had seen, there must have been deeper PY transactions.
The lockdown of Shihekou Middle School must also be inextricably linked to the Disc Spirit game.
Lu Yibei thought uneasily, her eyes still burning in waves, and the hunger grew stronger. But strangely, her body temperature didn't rise as it had in previous encounters with danger.
She didn't know if it was due to excessive consumption in the previous battle with Xu Feng, or if the power within her was deliberately lying dormant, waiting for something.
Tsk, I knew this kind of power that couldn't be controlled freely was unreliable! Lu Yibei cursed under her breath, "When I have money, I must get a more stable cheat!"
...
While Lu Yibei was thinking, Du Sixian nervously observed Pharaoh and the others.
Although there was nothing unusual about their appearance, the more Du Sixian watched, the more she felt their words and actions were bizarre, causing her heart to palpitate in waves.
Any normal person with a bit of sense knows that hundreds of students suddenly appearing in a haunted abandoned school in the middle of the night, accompanied by the ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) sound of bells, is a terrifying thing.
But after witnessing the scene in the corridor just now, they weren't the least bit panicked. Instead, they patiently prepared for the Disc Spirit game.
This is too abnormal, they're practically walking into death!
As a seasoned "seeking death" girl, Du Sixian felt there was a big difference between "seeking death" and "walking into death." The essence of "seeking death" was "seeking death without dying."
The Expert was right, they, no, *they* have definitely become urban legend. she thought.
“Alright, preparations are complete. Let me explain the rules of this game first, okay? Everyone, come sit over here.”
Pharaoh's voice echoed in the classroom. Du Sixian withdrew her thoughts and looked in his direction, slightly startled.
The scene before her was too familiar.
White paper covered in words was spread on the ground, and a white porcelain dish was placed on the paper. Four people sat around the white porcelain dish, each facing a different direction.
Behind them, old desks and chairs formed a circle. Dim yellow candlelight shone from the four corners of the classroom, casting mottled shadows on the ground.
This scene was exactly the same as when their group first started playing the Disc Spirit game over an hour ago.
The positions of the four people hadn't changed, the arrangement of desks and chairs was almost completely restored, and even the direction of the chip on the white porcelain dish was highly consistent.
Yun Meng casually asked trivial gossip questions that made people not want to answer. Liang Yue interrupted Pharaoh from time to time to add more detailed information about the Disc Spirit game. Brazil War God kept doing warm-up exercises, eager to try.
In a trance, Du Sixian had a sense of time displacement.
It was as if the terrifying experience of the past hour was just a nightmare that had never happened, and her companions were still alive.
Will the Expert...
Du Sixian nervously glanced at her side from the corner of her eye. After seeing Lu Yibei was still there, she confirmed that everything that had just happened was real, not her imagination.

“...To play the Disc Spirit game, the number of participants is best between five and six people. Too many people won't work either, after all, the dish is only so big and can't fit that many hands, hehe! After the game starts, everyone must close their eyes and softly chant 【Disc Spirit, Disc Spirit, please come out】, then...”
Hearing Pharaoh explain almost the exact same thing as before, Du Sixian felt a chill down her spine. She quietly looked at the incredibly calm Lu Yibei and secretly moved closer.
“Expert, Expert...”
Lu Yibei heard the soft call from beside her. She tilted her head to look at Du Sixian and responded in a voice only they could hear, "What is it?"
“This scene now is exactly the same as when we first arrived, before we played the Disc Spirit game. It's like, like, time has gone backward.”
Although Du Sixian didn't know if this information could help Lu Yibei break the current deadlock, she felt it was necessary to tell this information to the only human she could trust in the entire classroom.
“...”
Lu Yibei remained silent. She turned her head and glanced at Pharaoh and the others in the center of the classroom, muttering inwardly.
Exactly the same?
Are you referring to the dismembered limbs that almost filled the entire classroom?
Or are you referring to that piece under your butt, a limb from who knows which big brother, and from which part?
Despite the complaints, after hearing what seemed like very important information from Du Sixian, Lu Yibei began to think seriously.
Exactly the same? Why would they do that?
Is there someone who wants them, or the two of us, to go through the Disc Spirit game from beginning to end according to the previous process?
Lu Yibei couldn't figure it out for a moment. Judging from the phenomenon of her gaining Spiritual Energy during the Disc Spirit game played by the few people before, the Disc Spirit game was like a delicious feast hidden in the park woods for urban legend. Whoever discovered it first, whoever was bold enough, could get a head start and feast.
As for what was special about this particular Disc Spirit game, perhaps she would only know after the game began.
While thinking, Lu Yibei glanced at Du Sixian from the corner of her eye and said calmly, "Let's wait and see."
Even if I don't join their game, can I escape? Hundreds of urban legend are waiting outside! Lu Yibei thought. Fight one against a hundred, or look for an opportunity to fight one against four, she chose...
Only children make choices, Adults know they can't handle it!
Hearing Lu Yibei's answer, Du Sixian opened her lips, about to say something. Just then, Pharaoh suddenly spoke, making her swallow the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
“...Alright, those are the basic rules. Everyone, shall we start the game now? Everyone, come sit down and place your hands on the dish.”

Is it starting? Lu Yibei's gaze sharpened upon hearing this. She looked towards the dish, and immediately felt an urge to curse in her heart.
“Gurgle—gurgle—!”
The viscous substances in the four boxes surged, making sounds like mud churning.
Under the dim yellow candlelight, countless arms reached out from the boxes and piled up on the white porcelain dish all at once.
Faced with the large number of arms piled up like a small mountain, even the Coat on Lu Yibei felt uncomfortable, wriggling uneasily and making a faint "rustling" sound.
Feeling the Coat's unusual movement, like a timid Little Girl.
She slightly furrowed her brow, gently stroked the Coat, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, as long as I don't fall, I won't let them eat you."
If the Coat moved around erratically, and they saw through it, triggering some unpredictable extreme reaction, it would be troublesome.
Lu Yibei thought, feeling the Coat calm down, and slightly breathed a sigh of relief.
Du Sixian was feeling uneasy because the Disc Spirit game was about to begin. Suddenly, she heard Lu Yibei's soft comfort, and warmth welled up in her heart. Then, as if she had decided something, she nodded solemnly, gathered immense courage, walked forward, and placed her hand on the white porcelain dish.
“Come on! Let's start!”
Lu Yibei, "???"
Miss, you are really super brave!
Seeing that Lu Yibei was slow to join the game, Pharaoh turned his head, which was clustered among a pile of dismembered limbs, looked at her with his hollow eye sockets, and said in the most ferocious manner, "Don't be afraid, it's just a game. If anything really happens, we will protect you."
Seeing Pharaoh being so gentle towards a strange girl, Yun Meng grabbed Pharaoh's head, held it in one pair of her hands, and said resentfully, "Some people's girlfriends are still here, and they're already hitting on girls?"
As she spoke, she cast a malicious gaze towards Lu Yibei and said half-jokingly, half-warningly, "Little sister, you don't look very old, so be sure not to learn from those bad women!"
Lu Yibei, "..."
No, Sister, you've misunderstood. With your boyfriend looking like that, it's really impossible for us!
Besides, I don't like men, uh, I'm not interested in male urban legend either.
She thought, took a deep breath, held her breath, and suppressed the nausea and discomfort brought by the strong stench of decay. She walked forward and placed her hand on top of that pile of palms.
The dry, wrinkled palms gave off a rough texture. As soon as Lu Yibei touched those palms, her eyelids couldn't stop twitching violently.
Lu Yibei knew that her eyes might have abilities beyond ordinary people. The abnormal twitching of her eyes at this moment was definitely not just eyelid spasms from overuse.
I seem to remember there's a saying about the left eye twitching for wealth and the right eye twitching for disaster?
But what does it mean when both eyes twitch together?
Losing money to avert disaster? Seeking wealth in danger? Or dying with money left unspent?
While Lu Yibei was thinking, a reminder suddenly came from her ear.
“Get ready to start, everyone follow me.” Pharaoh said, and began chanting the incantation for the Disc Spirit game, “Disc Spirit, Disc Spirit, please come out...”
“Disc Spirit, Disc Spirit, please come out...”
As soon as Lu Yibei repeated it, she felt signs of her Spiritual Energy being drawn out from her body. It was somewhat like when the mingwang statue drew out her Spiritual Energy, but not as intense.
She was startled for a moment. From the corner of her eye, she secretly glanced at Du Sixian. She saw that Du Sixian looked dazed, her face was pale, and a hazy mist emanated from her body, surging towards the white porcelain dish along her slender arms.
Could this be a ritual to transfer Spiritual Energy to a specific entity?
Just as a doubt arose in Lu Yibei's heart, the second recitation of the incantation followed immediately.
“Disc Spirit, Disc Spirit, please come out...”
As soon as she repeated it, she felt a strong burning pain in her eyes. In her line of sight, the paper full of words placed under the white porcelain dish instantly ignited.
The voices of the four urban legend suddenly became distorted and strange, turning into a shriek that was both high-pitched and melodious. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
It was like a whispered secret, like a scream of furious anger, like a song praising a certain existence.
Amidst the shrieks, Lu Yibei vaguely heard a hidden, strange voice, like the sorrowful whisper of a certain woman.
“Looking at the night before and after, a woman binds a straw figure, with a paper powdered face, a headscarf, shirt, and skirt, called Purple Maiden.”
Lu Yibei didn't know what Purple Maiden was, but this method of description gave her a strange sense of familiarity.
“Disc Spirit, Disc Spirit, please come out...”
Everyone repeated the Disc Spirit game incantation once again. The shrieks in their ears grew stronger and stronger.
Then...
For a moment, the shrieking disappeared.
A moment of deathly silence, which felt incredibly long, followed by an explosion a thousand times stronger!
The shrieking was chaotic, making Lu Yibei feel dizzy. She heard that sorrowful whisper again. The difference was, this time she also heard another voice.
A voice that erupted from within her body.
“There is Zhong Mountain. There is a woman dressed in Qingyi. Wherever she is seen, there is a great drought, and the land is parched for a thousand miles. She is called Nvba, the drought goddess!”
The desolate ancient voice was exceptionally loud, like the morning bell and evening drum. It was mixed with a tyrannical emotion, as if it was fighting for something, subtly tending to overpower the sorrowful whisper.
Lu Yibei was startled, and suddenly understood why she had felt a sense of familiarity with that description just now.
That was because she had heard similar things many times when she transformed in the evening!
Furthermore, the voice inside me seems to be slightly more powerful?
If...
What would happen if I made them change their lines to that description from within me?
With a turn of her thought, a strange glint flashed in Lu Yibei's eyes.
At this moment, she had a bold idea.
