Chapter 28: Classic Movie Appreciation (2)
In the dim movie screen, the headless ghost held his head and slowly crawled towards the screen.
"F*ck, f*ck! It's coming out!"
Guo Guo directly pushed the table and quickly jumped to Tang Xinjue's side, pointing at the movie and shivering: "A necessary part of horror movies! It will definitely crawl out and kill us! Jue! Shen! Quick! Squeeze the toilet plunger!"
"Guo Guo, what are you shouting?"
Zhang You and Zheng Wanqing turned their heads when they heard the screams, their faces puzzled.
Guo Guo patted her thigh: "A ghost movie! You guys are watching on your computer... Hey, why don't you have it on your computer?"
Looking closely, Zhang You and Zheng Wanqing's computer screen didn't have a headless ghost at all. On Zhang You's side, an old grandmother was cutting meat, and Zheng Wanqing's computer was a classroom, and the students were all studying with their heads down.
Only Tang Xinjue and Guo Guo are playing the same movie. Seeing the headless ghost crawling closer and closer, the smile on the head's face is getting bigger and bigger. The camera suddenly turns to a few shivering teenagers.
Four boys and girls, about seventeen or eighteen years old, were leaning against a huge glass window. The headless ghost was gradually approaching them, and dark red blood was spreading on the ground.
Tang Xinjue held the mouse and moved to the bottom of the screen. She found that there was no progress bar that could be pulled, nor could it be paused. There was only an option to close.
[Do you want to close this movie? Browsing progress will be cleared after exiting.]
After selecting [No], the movie continues. The teenagers screamed in piercing voices, but didn't say any meaningful lines. The was only a single scene, a bird's-eye view.
It looked more like a videotape or livestream than a movie?
Tang Xinjue used an [Appraisal] on the screen:
[A classic movie, the effect is real and authentic, and people who have seen it say it is good.]
Guo Guo didn't dare to go back to her side to watch it alone. The other two also came over with their computers, and put the four pictures together to play at the same time, which dispelled the strange feeling, but it was still a bit ghostly.
Open the APP, and the test requirements have popped up:
"There are eight movies in the scope of this test, please select at least four to watch."
"When the viewing progress reaches 100%, a movie quiz test will be conducted. If the answer is correct, you can write the answer on the scene. if you answer incorrectly, you need to watch again."
"Test clearance requirements: Take the dorm as a unit, and complete four or more movie quizzes after watching." They were subconsciously relieved.
They were psychologically shadowed by the last A-level difficulty, and now having entered a C-level examination room, and they have... an inexplicable sense of security?
Tang Xinjue reminded: "No matter what, you can't take it lightly."
A-level may not necessarily destroy them, and C-level may not necessarily let them survive.
After entering the dungeon, you can only do your best to strive for the highest possibility of survival.
After carefully reading the exam rules, Tang Xinjue directly clicked close on the screen, and the screen immediately returned to the folder.
There are a total of eight movies and videos in the folder, with the names: "The Headless Story 1", "The Headless Story 2", "The Death Record of Class 3-1", "The Ghost in the Bedroom", "The Ghost in the Mirror", "The Ghost in the Mirror", Mountain Village's Evil Spirit 1", "Mountain Village's Evil Spirit 2", "Don't Open the Door at Midnight".
...They didn't seem like classic, but they looked like bad movies.
Tang Xinjue looked at them one by one. After checking, they figured out what was being played on the four's computers at the beginning of the exam. What she and Guo Guo were watching was "The Headless Story 1", what Zheng Wanqing was watching was "The Death Record of Class 3-1", Zhang You are watching "Mountain Village's Evil Spirit 1".
Zhang You asked: "Do we all have to watch four movies, or do each of us have to watch all four?"
Tang Xinjue: "Since it is based on the dormitory as a unit, it is enough to watch all four movies in total. And there is no time limit for this exam."
There is no time limit, indicating that the main danger comes from movie appreciation itself.
"Of course, restrictions still exist." Tang Xinjue added: "When the progress bar of the movie reaches 100%, the movie quiz will start and cannot be paused. That is to say, we must prepare before the test starts."
In short, they must not watch a movie rashly - who knows if they will trigger a death condition because of this?
Guo Guo shook her hand and turned off her computer: "Then the four of us will watch it together!"
Four people answering the quiz together was not only safer, but also has a higher accuracy rate, even if it is fixed.
In view of the fact that the beginning of "Headless Story 1" gave Guo Guo more damage, the four of them decided to start screening from the remaining six films one by one. Although this takes a long time, it is better to be cautious.
Before making a choice, Guo Guo called to stop: "Wait!"
She pulled out a red water drop pendant from under her neck and held it in her hand, and swept it across the screen.
At this time, the prop "The Eye of Premonition", which she spent a huge sum of 30 points in exchange yesterday, combined with her own perception, can be used to judge good and bad.
Soon, Guo Guo exclaimed and pointed to a movie: "Can't watch this!"
She was referring to "Don't Open the Door at Midnight".
The pendant was hot, which gave them a very ominous sign.
"Then there are only... five left."
Tang Xinjue whispered softly, very calm: "It doesn't matter, let's look at them one by one."
After choosing the order, the computer started to play "The Death Record of Class 3-1".
The movie starts with a simple title, with white characters on a black background, and red blood slowly dripping from the writing. After that, everything in the picture turned into the scene that Zheng Wanqing had just seen:
There was an ordinary high school classroom with more than 40 students studying by themselves. From the perspective of the camera, it looked a bit like a surveillance camera.
Five minutes later, the students were still studying quietly.
Fifteen minutes later, they were still in self-study.
Thirty minutes later, Zheng Wanqing finally couldn't help it: "What kind of shit is this movie made of? I'll fall asleep if I keep watching it!"
If this kind of movie can be called a "classic movie", domestic horror movies can chase the dream of getting an Oscar!
When the others looked drowsy, Tang Xinjue suddenly frowned: "Someone moved."
The scene changed. There was a pair of a boy and a girl at the same table in the back row, quietly raising their heads. After confirming that no one around was paying attention, they whispered a few words to each other, and then began to be intimate.
Single No. 1 Guo Guo: "Come on!"
Single No. 2 Zheng Wanqing: "F*ck!"
Single No. 3 Zhang You: "F*ck!"
Single No. 4 Tang Xinjue didn't speak, she noticed a detail: "The girl's hand changed."
Even if there was only a small corner, it can still be seen that the girl's arm has changed from white to cyan, and her nails have become black and long. The boy didn't notice it until the girl raised her head from her embrace, the two looked at each other, and there were two tears of blood in the girl's eyes.
"Ah!!!" The boy screamed and fell to the ground, trying to open the door to escape, but was caught by the head teacher at the door.
"Wang Peng, what are you doing?"
The boy named Wang Peng was incoherent: "Feng Wan, her face..."
The head teacher did not listen to his explanation, and after a few harsh reprimands, without further ado, he shut him back to the classroom.
The boy tried his best to slam the door, but to no avail. He shivered and turned his head, only to see the whole class who had just been studying at the desk slowly raising their heads, blood and tears streaming down their faces.
In his desperate and terrified screams, his classmates got up and rushed up to surround him...
Seeing this, Tang Xinjue suddenly realized that something was wrong, and immediately closed the page by moving the mouse. However, just before she clicked the mouse, the computer screen went dark.
[The movie has been watched! Start the movie quiz now!]
The four of them: "..."
Your movie is only over thirty minutes long? What are you kidding?
No wonder you don't show the progress bar, it's more of a trap than the exam!
It was too late to quit now, and a multiple-choice question quickly appeared on the screen:
[Excuse me, whose dream is this movie about?]
[A. Zhao Mingtao]
[B. Qian Zhi]
[C. Sun Qian]
[D. Li Xiaoyu]
Four of them: "..."
"If I didn't suddenly lose my memory," Zhang You frowned, "It seems that none of these four names appeared in the movie."
Tang Xinjue was expressionless : "You don't have amnesia, I also don't see it."
Not only that, but there was no mention of anything related to the dream.
In the content of more than 30 minutes, in addition to watching the self-study from the monitoring point of view, only the two characters "Wang Peng" and "Feng Wan" appeared in the last few minutes, but these two names did not appear in the options.
This is really Sima Guang smashing the jar and playing the piano* - outrageous!
*Can't find the "playing piano" part, but there is a story about Sima Guang, a minister in Chinese history; as a kid, he saved a child from drowning by smashing a jar of water that the child fell into. Anyone knows what the whole sentence "司马光边砸缸边弹琴" means? I'm wildly guessing that it was about how it was impossible for him to play piano by smashing jars, it's something outrageous.
[19, 18, 17...]
The question-and-answer interface has entered the countdown, and they are not allowed to think about it for too long.
Tang Xinjue's identification skills and Guo Guo's pendant didn't work. At this time, there was no other way but to rely on cheating.
"It can be seen from the law of cheating that if you don't know all four of the answers, choose C——"
Pa, the mouse fell on the C option.
The countdown stopped, the question and answer interface disappeared, and the words popped up in bright red and dazzling:
[Answer wrong! The viewing progress has been cleared, and the movie is restarting...]
A bad premonition appeared, Tang Xinjue instantly pulled out of the toilet plunger, and at the same moment, the surrounding environment suddenly changed drastically.
The desk turned into a desk full of books, and her roommates who were gathered next to it disappeared, turning into neatly arranged desks.
Looking around, the environment she was in had turned into a high school classroom, everyone was immersed in their studies, and the only sound in the room was the rustling of pens falling on paper.
At this time, someone poked her in the back. Tang Xinjue looked back, it was the male protagonist "Wang Peng" in the movie just now, he looked very normal at the moment, leaned his head and asked her in a low voice: "Li Xiaoyu, did you know what happened to Wang Peng yesterday? How was he taken away by the head teacher?"
Tang Xinjue was silent for two seconds, then asked, "Who are you?"
The boy opened his eyes wide: "No, you lost your memory? I'm Zhao Mingtao!"
