Unable to use my psychic eye, I sat there like this for half an hour. After thinking hard, I finally gave up on trickery and decided to use the stupidest method to find useful clues.
The so-called stupidest way is for me to follow the three fat men’s movements yesterday and walk around the library. Because basically I was traveling with him most of the time, so where did the three fat men go yesterday?
I basically know everything about what I did in the reading room and what I did there.
Although I just asked people from the Foreign Affairs Office to help me check around the place where Fatty Three had wandered around, they just searched the room in their own way and did not follow Fatty Three's movements. After confirming
After the theory that flies were transmitted was not established, I began to think that it might be something that Fatty Three did in the library that caused him to be infected with sleeping sickness.
Thinking of this, I just did it. I immediately started from the entrance of the library, followed the action route of the three fat men in my memory, and began to repeat what he did.
But when I came to the literature reading room on the second floor, I encountered a little difficulty. Because when we came to this reading room, San Pang and I had been separated for a while, and we each looked at different bookshelves.
books. Because the bookshelf was covered up, I didn’t know exactly what the three fat men were doing at that time. I could only rely on the sounds of the three fat men in my memory at that time and started spinning around the bookshelf.
After wandering around for a while, I suddenly remembered something, that is, San Pang once found a book here that had only one page of text and the rest were blank pages.
That book is in...
I looked up and down, and the book shouldn't be at a high place, because the guy was short and he didn't hold any tools at the time, so the book couldn't be on the upper shelf. As for the middle shelf, I
I think it is unlikely, because the staff of the Foreign Affairs Office also searched here just now, including the books on the bookshelves, which were the targets of their search at that time. So if the book was on the middle floor, they should have seen it
That's right. But no one from the Foreign Affairs Office mentioned it to me at the time, so I felt that the book should not be on the middle shelf, but on the bottom of the bookshelf, in a very inconspicuous position.
Thinking of this, I lay down and started searching bit by bit at the bottom of the bookshelf.
I was bent over and lying on the ground, checking the bookshelf in this position. To be honest, it was a little uncomfortable, but in order to find useful clues, I persisted for about twenty minutes, but just when I was about to finish checking the third fat person in charge
When I went to the bookshelf area, I still didn't find the strange book he mentioned.
Just when I was about to give up, my hard work paid off, and I finally found an unusual-looking book in the bottom corner of a bookshelf.
This book is a hardcover book with no markings and a green cover. The style of the book is somewhat similar to an ancient book. There is no description of the content of the book on the cover. And when I opened the book
After that, I discovered that except for the first page, the remaining pages of the book were completely empty.
Sure enough, this book is the one that the three fat men mentioned at the beginning.
I looked at it, and there was a short sentence written on the first page: The birth of a hero.
"Um?"
I'm a little confused, what does this book mean? The Birth of a Hero, this page looks a bit like the title of this book, but why is there no content except the first page?
Sure enough, as San Pang said, this book is really strange.
But that's all. I read this strange book over and over again more than ten times, and found that there was really nothing in this book except for one page and one line of words on it. And in this mere book, I couldn't read it.
It doesn't look like something that could cause sleeping sickness.
Thinking that there were other places to read, I put the book back where it was and then walked elsewhere.
After entering this literary reading room, I have almost repeated what the three fat men did that day. Finally, I sat on the chair where the two of us had rested. I felt more tired than ever before, and my mind was in a mess.
It's a mess. What on earth made the Three Fatty become like that? Why can't we find it no matter how hard we look? What place or thing has the Three Fatty ever been to or done, but we don't know about it?
Suddenly, I felt that I was really useless. Without my psychic eye, I couldn’t help San Fatty. The more I thought about it, the more I felt filled with self-blame. Seeing the expression on my face,
A staff member of the Foreign Affairs Office who stayed here with me couldn't help but said: "Comrade Lin, don't worry, we will definitely find a way. It's getting late now, and you have been busy since the early morning.
Now, I haven’t even eaten. How about we go have a meal first, and then you go back to the hotel to rest. We will have people continue to search here, and we will notify you immediately if there are any clues."
Because of my self-blame, I was about to become like a zombie. I didn't listen carefully to what the staff member said, I just nodded subconsciously.
After seeing me nodding, the staff member from the Foreign Affairs Office helped me up and led me towards the outside of the library.
After he helped me get into the back seat of the car, the other person said that I had been busy for a long time today, so I should just sit in the car and squint for a while, and he would wake me up when he drove to the place. I was indeed very sleepy at the time, so I rested my head on the
He sat on the chair and closed his eyes.
Staying awake for almost a day and a night made my body extremely exhausted. Almost not long after I closed my eyes, I fell into a deep sleep.
I slept extremely soundly, and I don't know how long I slept when I suddenly started to have a dream.
Speaking of which, this dream was a bit too weird, because in the dream, I turned into a sword-wielding knight in green shirt, and started a fierce battle with three monsters.
After a fierce fight, the three demons were no match for my exquisite swordsmanship and fled in defeat, hiding in a cave.
"Hmph, if the monk can escape, he can't escape from the temple. Where can you escape?"
I said something coldly, then waved my hand, and the flying sword under my feet was drawn out, whirling and flashing, turning into a ray of light, and put it into my sleeve.
While the flying sword was put away, I slowly landed on the ground and strode into the cave. In this dark cave, there were a few phosphorescent will-o'-the-wisps in the distance, making it look eerie and scary.
After walking not long, I saw at the end of the cave, a throne filled with skeletons and covered with animal skins. Next to the throne was a human bone lamp. The light was dim, but it was just enough for me to see the throne clearly.
A figure sitting upright.
It was a Rosa hag who looked terrifying but had a plump and attractive figure. When she saw me walking in, she slowly stood up from her throne and shouted contemptuously at me: "Bold boy, it was you just now
Are you bullying my three disciples? I didn’t expect you to dare to break into my Rakshasa Cave alone. You are so courageous, but extremely stupid!”
I clasped my hands behind my back and said, "In troubled times, everyone has to kill evildoers. Unexpectedly, I chased three little ones, but I met a big one. Since you are the boss of those three little demons, you should know that I am outside."
, why didn’t you run away just now? Could it be that you knew you were running out of energy?”
The Rakshasa ghost laughed, and suddenly waved her delicate hand, and a sudden wave of air slammed into me.
I couldn't dodge for a moment and was hit by the air wave. I flew up immediately and hit the stone wall with my back, making a loud "bang" sound!
Oh, let me go!
I suddenly shouted in my heart, it was just a dream, why did I feel burning pain on my back?
Before I had time to come up with an answer, I found that my body did not fall to the ground after hitting the stone wall. When I looked up, I found that the hag's finger was pointing at me, and an invisible strange force was pulling me away.
Pressed tightly against the stone wall, unable to move.
"Oh my god...why don't you resist? This is so boring..." the ghost woman said in a charming voice.
I struggled left and right, but found that I couldn't move. I heard the hag's teasing voice again, and I suddenly got angry and yelled at her: "You are evil, don't talk nonsense too soon, you and I
The situation is irreconcilable!"
After that, I raised the flying sword in my sleeve, and with a "swish" sound, I stabbed straight towards the hag!
