[R18] Global College Entrance Examination – “Global College Entrance Examination” Chapter 21 [English]

☆, Chapter 21 Villagers

A foreign language that even translation software cannot recognize…

The loss system can do it.

“…What about the Internet?” Yu Wen poked at the screen of his mobile phone, a little anxious: “Am I not downloading enough thesaurus? Is the Internet useful? Can the proctor help me with this?”

When everyone heard this, they looked towards Qin Jiu.

The invigilator stood in front of the cupboard in the corner of the living room, looking through the incense burner boredly.He seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, and without even looking back, he said, “You didn’t draw the bonus cards. What are you looking at me doing?”

There is too much incense in the house.

He unscrewed the stove lid, picked out the smoky stuff, and threw it aside.During this process, he fiddled with the stove with his long and thin fingers, not afraid of getting burned at all.

After hearing what he said, everyone looked at You Huo eagerly.

But before Youhuo could speak, Yu Wen, who was the first to suggest it, slowly calmed down, “Forget it, the dictionary should be complete, I’ll just ask… Several versions of translation software don’t have Gypsy, so even if they are connected to the Internet, they may not be able to translate it. If you really can’t find something, it will be a waste of a card.”

Chen Bin looked around and couldn’t help but ask: “What card? I’ve always heard you mention it since I joined the team, but I never had the nerve to ask.”

When the cards were drawn, everyone in the team watched. They knew everything they needed to know and there was nothing to hide.

Everyone explained to Chen Bin the purpose of the reward card.

Chen Bin was stunned when he heard this: “…Is there really a reward? I have only heard about it in rumors before, and thought it was a lie. What did you do? How did you get the opportunity?”

Everyone looked ashamed, thinking that it was all due to randomness of the system, which gave them a golden thigh.

Chen Bin was well aware of current affairs. Seeing everyone’s different expressions, he didn’t ask any more questions.

He glanced at Liang Yuanhao and found that the other person’s lips were pressed tightly and his face was ugly.In fact, he himself didn’t look that good either.

Although we have never seen the bonus cards in person, we have heard about them.

Regardless of the reason for getting the reward opportunity, it only proves one thing – this team is very powerful.

In other words, there are very powerful people in this team.

It is self-evident who this powerful person is.

Unfortunately, the two of them just made the opposite choice as the boss.

Chen Bin lightly kissed Liang Yuanhao, and while the others were discussing, he asked him in a low voice: “Do you regret it?”

Liang Yuanhao pulled a face and said in a rough voice: “The consequences haven’t been revealed yet. Can I be right again if I was right once? Anyway, I don’t regret it.”

“I have a point.” Chen Bin looked at the ground with a sad look on his face.

“Brother, do you want help from the invigilator?” Yu Wen asked.

“Not looking for it.”

Youhuo was sitting on the armrest of the sofa playing with his mobile phone.

Qin Jiu put the lid of the incense burner back on.

He casually took out a colored towel, wiped his fingers clean, and then walked behind Youhuo calmly.He put his hands on the back of the sofa and said, “You really don’t want to look for it? I’ve been hiding this card for a long time. I really can’t wait to use it.”

Youhuo didn’t even raise his head and sneered in reply.

Qin Zhu became even more interested.

This examinee was really interesting. He asked no small questions within the normal range, and he was not polite at all when instructing the invigilator.But when it comes to asking for help, he ignores it, as if asking for help means bowing his head.

A tough nut to crack.

001 The invigilator commented in his heart.

•

Youhuo clicked on the phone a few times, and the voice of a black woman sounded in the house again.

It’s not like English.Everyone knows English, even if they are poor at learning it, if they play it a few times and slow it down a bit, they will be able to understand it.

They really don’t know anything about the Gypsy language. Even if you play this recording in a loop all day, you won’t get through it.

They stood in silence in the living room, desperately surrounded by the chirping of birds.

•

After playing that paragraph about ten times, someone suddenly snapped his fingers.

Everyone suddenly came to their senses: “Who? What’s wrong?”

It was actually Mike who snapped his fingers.

He opened his mouth and listened motionlessly to the last two sentences of Hei Po, and then shouted excitedly.

Because he spoke too fast, it sounded like gibberish.

Lao Yuhe and the others were stunned for a long time, then turned to ask Youhuo: “What did he say?”

Youhuo frowned and said, “He said that Hei Po’s Gypsy language contains Persian and Russian vocabulary.”

he turned to Mike and asked: “Are you sure?”

As a person of mixed race from four countries, although Mike doesn’t look like he has any blood, he still has a good command of the language.He slowed down his speech and explained, saying that his grandfather was from Russia. Although he was not proficient in Russian, his vocabulary was not bad.As for Persian, he took it on a whim in college.

During the migration process, Gypsies are often influenced by the people in the place where they live, so foreign words are often introduced into their language.

They will also learn the local language, just like Hei Po can understand the Chinese spoken by the candidates.

The village chief said that Heipo came here with the Russians to escape the war. She must have been influenced by her Russian companions, and her language and words were mixed.

Maybe even she herself is not aware of this.

•

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became excited.

Yu Wen stared at Mike like a big dog and said, “Come on! Talk, talk, talk! What did you hear?”

Hearing this question, Mike was a little surprised.

He’s slightly chubby face turned pink, and he said “uh” several times before he could hold back a few words.

“Grave.”

“Flowers.”

“Needle.”

“The sun.”

Youhuo looked at Mike, turned to everyone and said, “No more.”

Everyone: “…”

“What’s the topic?” Lao Yu asked.

Yu Wen said expressionlessly: “1. What is Hei Po’s name? 2. Where are Hei Po’s family members? 3. How many people are in Hei Po’s house?”

Which of these four words can answer…

The hope that was finally raised was suddenly extinguished.

Everyone stretched their necks and retracted their faces, their faces gloomy.

•

The sun unknowingly tilted to the west, hiding behind the woods, casting a dull afterglow.

Yu Yao, who was sitting by the window, suddenly opened the curtain and said softly: “Village people…”

“Ah?” Yu Wen leaned over, “What villager?”

Yu Yao opened the curtains completely, pointed to the small round stone window and said, “There are people on the other side of the river coming out for activities. They should be villagers, right?”

The frozen river glowed with light in the evening.On the other side of the light, there were three or two figures coming out of the house, carrying baskets, and carefully moving towards the river.

“It’s true.” Chen Bin muttered: “The village chief said that we will go out for some activities in the evening. It will be more lively when there are more people, right? But…”

Where are the excitement among three or two people???

•

Anyway, where there are people, there are clues.

Youhuo put on a black down jacket, pulled the zipper to his chin, covered the lower half of his face, and walked out the door.

Others followed out one after another.

Qin Ju walked leisurely beside You Huo, half a step behind you.

“Clothes bought with points?”

Youhuo squinted his eyes and stared at him through the narrow slits of his eyes.

“Although I have received several big gifts from you, I am very generous. I don’t mind giving you some advice.”

Qin Jiu put his hands in his coat pockets and walked slowly across the frozen river side by side with He. “There are only a handful of people who can pass this exam. Anyway, I have been proctoring the exam for so long and I haven’t seen many. For ordinary candidates, it is best not to waste their scores in the early stage.”

Youhuo’s straight nose was hidden under his collar, but a white mist still formed between his breaths.

He walked to the other side, his light-colored eyes moved, and his eyes fell on a middle-aged woman not far away.

The woman is dressed in a typical winter border style, wearing a very long winter coat, wrapped from the neck to the feet, and a large scarf that wants to bury the whole head.

She awkwardly squatted down by the river and called to the man next to her: “Come on, chip away at the ice.”

You Huo looked at it for a while and then said to Qin Jiu: “I leave general advice to others, I don’t need it.”

After saying that, he walked towards the two villagers.

•

The two villagers were slightly stunned when they saw You Huo.Then his frozen face slowly smiled: “Are you a new guest? The village chief told us.”

You Huo glanced at the village chief’s house. The doors and windows were closed.

“Well, just arrived this morning.” he replied.

The villagers nodded, not enthusiastically: “You live on the other side of the river?”

“Yeah.”

Villager: “…”

The man and woman were silent for a while, and then said, “Don’t you have anything to ask us? You must be very unfamiliar when you first came to the village, right?”

Youhuo raised his eyes: “It’s okay.”

Two people: “…”

They looked at each other for a moment, then squatted down to dig out the ice on the river.After chiseling twice, they glanced at You Huo.

“Did you go to the black woman’s place?” The middle-aged woman couldn’t help but ask.

Youhuo nodded: “Yes, I stayed there all afternoon.”

“Oh…did you do something?”

Youhuo said, “I made a few dolls. I wonder if you have seen them.”

The two villagers paused and shrank a little.

Youhuo added: “There are also a few who haven’t done it.”

To his surprise, the villagers actually flinched again.

After a moment, the woman raised her head and said, “No, usually only guests visit Hei Po. We rarely go to the other side of the river.”

Youhuo: “Have you had guests before?”

The woman nodded: “Those who have been here are almost like you. They always come in groups.”

Youhuo said: “What happened to them later?”

The woman was at a loss for a moment, then shook her head and said, “It seems… I didn’t see them leave.”

Several candidates who had just crossed the river almost fell into the river when they heard this.

Qin Jiu walked up to Youhuo, lowered his head slightly and said, “You are really a trickster.”

Youhuo: “…”

He was about to reply when the iron basin in the male villager’s hand suddenly clattered onto the ice.

The two of them looked over and saw the man staring at You Huo’s eyes for a few seconds, then staring at Qin Jiu for a few seconds, and said slowly: “I seem…to have seen you somewhere.”

Youhuo was stunned: “Who? Us?”
