Rody carefully thought about the phrase 'look for the answer in your heart'. He felt that the concept was very mysterious. After all, a person's thoughts were too complicated. There could be thousands of thoughts in an instant. Who knows what you are thinking in your heart?
He started to look around and quickly noticed something strange. On the stone table in front of Kardashian, there were a few items that were obviously different from other places.
"What is this?"
Kardashian sorted out her emotions in a few minutes. She seemed to have returned to her old self. She walked to the table and bent down to look at it. This posture showed that she hated the table so much that she didn't even want to touch it. But after looking for a long time, she frowned and said, "I've never seen the words written on it before..."
She had never seen it before, but Roddy was very familiar with it. The white paper was obviously written in simplified Chinese!
Kardashian looked left and right but didn't notice Roddy's twitching eyes. She turned her head and asked curiously, "I don't remember this thing. Why did it suddenly appear here?"
"Uh... I think I might know."
Roddy walked to the stone table and thought for a moment. He sat on the uncomfortable stone bench and picked up the white paper in front of him. "I guess this is one of the clues to go out. Maybe it's a 'key'?"
"You're right, but I don't understand it. How do I use it?"
Kardashian picked it up and found that it was not separated. It was pre-bound together. She raised her eyebrows. "What kind of words are these? This one... I think it looks like the High Elves' language, but it's not... "
Roddy pursed his lips and didn't say anything. He looked at the paper in her hand. On it were the words "2018 National College Entrance Examination — English Proficiency Test". The ink was clear and thick. It was exactly the same as the test paper he saw in the examination room that summer...
That's right. On the table was a set of English test papers that Roddy had done years ago.
At this moment, his mind was really flipping. "Traveling" to this world was already beyond his understanding. After almost three years of adaptation, he had finally gotten used to this fact. However, the appearance of this examination paper was like a bolt of lightning, completely shattering the barrier in his heart!
Is this world real or not!?
What the hell is going on with this test?!
If it was only Roddy who discovered it, it would have been fine. However, when he saw Kardashian pointing at the picture of the composition and muttering curiously, he couldn't help but shiver!
Was he real or fake? Was the Kardashian in front of him real or fake?
"Is this something that needs to be filled in? I see a lot of space here. What is this green piece of paper? — Roddy? Hey! Roddy? What happened to you? "
Kardashian was shocked to see him sweating profusely and his lifeless eyes. The latter seemed to have woken up from a dream. He reached out to wipe his sweat and sighed bitterly …
"What's going on? What did you see? "
"This thing … I do recognize it."
Being trapped here, Roddy had no choice but to explain. However, he didn't dare to tell her about his experience. He could only use the excuse of "the language of a small country in Laximan" to fool her.
"You even recognize this?"
"Roughly. To be honest, when I participated in the 'Crown of Late Autumn' in Laximan, I happened to be in their festival, something like a riddle. At that time, I was ostracized by the mages in Laximan and was pushed to write this. I looked left and right, but I still didn't know how to write it. I made a fool of myself. "
Roddy lied without batting an eyelid. He threw the blame to the Laximan Parliament without batting an eyelid. "So, I secretly learned their language, but I didn't expect it to be useful now."
"What a coincidence? Then why is it here? "
Kardashian's face was expressionless, but in her heart, she didn't believe his excuse that was full of loopholes. Even so, she didn't want to expose him. This thing was probably one of Roddy's unbearable memories, so it purposely appeared here to embarrass him. The reason was the same as the uncomfortable scenery around him. It was to make others feel uncomfortable.
Roddy looked at her expression and understood that there was no need to explain. He picked up the black pen beside him, thought for a moment, and finally scribbled skillfully.
Name: Roddy
Student ID: 16040502
There was a pink answer sheet beside him. There was even a Zhonghua 2B pencil. He looked at the white eraser beside him, and his thoughts couldn't help but drift to that afternoon many years ago …
The beginning of the college entrance examination for English was indeed one of Roddy's most regretful events in his life.
His English results had always been poor. After all, compared to subjects like "physics" and "mathematics" that relied more on IQ, "English" required perseverance and nurturing. However, Roddy, like many of his peers, was tempted by the wide variety of games in the information age. Therefore, he didn't put much effort into English.
When he was in the third year of high school, he wanted to work hard, but he found that it was too late. In the end, he only got 71 out of 150 points in the college entrance examination for English. His perfect or even extraordinary performance in other subjects couldn't offset his huge shortcoming in English. In the end, Roddy missed his dream of entering a key university, and he was filled with regret.
Later, when he went to university, Roddy desperately tried to "punish himself". In the year of his senior year, he got more than 580 points in the CET 6 exam. However, the gap between a second-rate university and a key university was too big. The "English" exam eventually became a permanent scar in his heart.
Now that he was in a different world, Roddy was forced to recall this past. Although he felt very uncomfortable, the real impact was much smaller than expected. Because he gradually sorted out the logic: The world was still this world, and this "time-space prison" absorbed two people at the same time. Therefore, the external environment was related to Kardashian, and the exam paper was related to him.
As he thought about it, he became more and more certain that the key to leaving the enchantment was this exam paper. Although he had long forgotten the content of this exam paper, now his memory and English level were far better than that of the third year of high school. After picking up the pen and starting to write, he finished answering all the questions in twenty minutes. It was like cutting melons and vegetables. After finishing the essay, Roddy began to fill in the answer sheet.
When everything was done, he looked up and suddenly felt as if a lifetime had passed.
Roddy sighed faintly, put the cap on the pen, and quietly put it aside.
Kardashian, who held her breath for nearly half an hour, was surprisingly quiet … because she felt that Roddy's temperament at this time was completely different from usual. Usually, no matter how modest Roddy was, he would have a domineering aura. But the Roddy in front of her seemed to have withdrawn all the aura from his body. Because of his concentration, his frown revealed a never-before-seen bitterness.
He didn't tell the truth.
Kardashian didn't stay idle during this half an hour. She was very knowledgeable, and her understanding of the language was far beyond Roddy's imagination. So when she saw him writing English sentences so skillfully, she understood this point.
But she didn't feel the anger of being deceived … Everyone has a sad thing in their heart, just like this place wasn't the "land of punishment" she mentioned. Kardashian also didn't tell the truth to Roddy.
In fact, this was the place where Kardashian's mother passed away, and not far away was the "Graveyard of Dragons" of the Frost Dragon Race. When the Dragons were old, they would come here to wait for death. As a descendant, Kardashian had witnessed her mother's death here, so this was a place that she didn't want to come to again in her memory.
Seeing the sadness and helplessness in Roddy's eyes, Kardashian understood that this must be the thing that Roddy didn't want to face the most. She had an inexplicable feeling in her heart: Maybe he wouldn't tell anyone the secret behind this, and would only bring it to his grave.
Roddy didn't know what Kardashian was thinking. He stroked the familiar texture of the exam paper, and his eyes didn't know where to focus. He just whispered, "Unfortunately … I can't do it again."
