Chapter 2 Do you want to travel the mountain of books?
I flipped through a few pages and found that there was not a single word in the book, only hundreds of densely packed black and white pictures.
The protagonists of these black and white pictures are all snake-men with human bodies and snake tails.
In most of the black-and-white images, they sometimes hunt human-sized frogs, sometimes chant around blazing fire, and sometimes curl up with their snake tails and look piously at the sky.
"Could these pictures be the living habits of the snake people? It's really weird." I looked down with great interest. If these pictures record the real habits of the snake people, it will definitely be helpful to my thesis.
My mind was completely immersed in this book, and it didn't take long before I turned to the last page.
The last page is very unusual. There is no black and white image, but a line of small words written crookedly.
If I hadn't been paying close attention, I probably wouldn't have noticed this line of fine print.
"Do you want to travel around the Book Mountain to explore more of the snake people's secrets? Come on, write down your answer on the last page. Note, if you choose yes, strange things will happen. Warm reminder, be careful not to enter for the faint of heart.
, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!”
I looked at this crooked line of words and grinned: "This must be a silly prank by my junior classmates. In fact, no matter whether I write down the answer or not, they can't know it. Since they can't know my choice,
What's going on? They're just trying to scare me."
After laughing, I was ready to close the book and ignore this childish game.
But when I was about to close the book, a strange thought suddenly occurred to me: "I'm just bored, so let me play with you, hehe."
I immediately picked up the ballpoint pen and wrote "Yes" under this line of small characters.
After waiting for a long time, the book "Snake Man" was motionless, and nothing strange happened at all.
"Have you been stupid in writing a paper recently? Are you actually expecting something to happen? Forget it, let's continue writing the paper." After laughing at myself, I closed the book completely, threw it aside and ignored it.
But at this moment, there was a sound of "Peng!"
The "Snake Man Record" that was thrown aside suddenly burst into flames!
Along with the spontaneous combustion of Snake Man Lu, a strange laughter appeared in the room.
Jie, Jie, Jie Jie Jie,
The laughter was particularly hollow and creepy.
But because the fire was getting bigger and bigger, I didn't notice this strange laughter for a while.
I quickly ran to the bathroom, filled a bottle of cold water, and poured the cold water on the burning "Snake Man".
However, the flames on "Snake Man" did not go out. Instead, they burned even brighter after being exposed to water.
"What should I do? This will cause a fire!" I was very anxious and was about to go to the stairwell to get a fire extinguisher.
But just then, I noticed a strange phenomenon.
Although the flames on the book grew stronger and stronger, the flames did not spread to other parts of the desk.
This sudden flame only wrapped the book "Snake Man" and kept burning!
What's even stranger is that although "Snake Man" was wrapped in flames, it did not turn into ashes.
To be precise, it was not damaged by fire at all, just like these flames, which were just its appendages.
"Weird things happen every year, but this year there are so many." I muttered, then gave up on getting the fire extinguisher and started reading the book "Snake Man" surrounded by flames.
As if he noticed my gaze, the "Snake Man's Record" suddenly turned automatically in the firelight.
The sound of turning books suddenly sounded in the room.
However, the sound of turning books did not last long. Soon, "Snake Man's Record" automatically turned to the last page and stopped.
The crooked words are still written on the last page.
"Do you want to travel around the Book Mountain to explore more of the snake people's secrets? Come on, write your answer on the last page. Note, if you choose yes, strange things will happen. Warm reminder, be careful not to enter for the faint of heart.
, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences!”
Underneath this line is the word I just wrote - yes.
Looking at the word "yes", my vision gradually became blurred, and my ears were filled with silence.
In the silence, countless sounds were amplified, and I finally heard that strange laughter.
Jie, Jie, Jie Jie Jie,
It's like an evil spirit screaming, or someone secretly laughing in my ears.
But not long after, the laughter stopped.
As the laughter stopped for a moment, my vision was restored.
I quickly opened my eyes wide and looked at the last page, and saw that there was a new line of small words under the word "Yes"!
This line of writing is as red as blood, and the blood-colored handwriting is still fresh. It was clearly written just now. It’s so shocking!
"Congratulations on becoming the tenth horror bookstore manager. As a qualified horror bookstore manager, you must use your life to understand the secrets of each book. Warm reminder: Please start the Snake Man Record mission within half an hour, otherwise you will be directly
The mission is determined to have failed! The consequences of mission failure: completely depriving the bookstore administrator of his life and re-
Select the tenth bookstore manager!"
There is a red square seal stamped at the end of this paragraph. This square seal looks like a shrunken bookstore.
And the four characters "Horror Bookstore" are engraved on this shrunken bookstore.
Looking at this strange square seal, I instantly got goosebumps.
Isn't it just a prank? How could such a weird situation happen?
"What's going on with this horror bookstore administrator? According to this passage, I am now the tenth administrator of the horror bookstore. As the tenth administrator of the horror bookstore, I have to start the task within half an hour.
If I don’t start the Snake Recording mission within half an hour, the Horror Bookstore will determine that the mission has failed. The consequence of mission failure is to directly deprive me of my life!” After reading this paragraph, my heart was beating fast, and I always felt that
You've got yourself into big trouble.
"If I don't perform this inexplicable task, will it really kill me?" I have some doubts about the authenticity of this statement.
But soon, I rejected this suspicion, because except for omnipotent ghosts and gods, no one can make fire and write out of thin air.
"It seems that I must start this mission. I must not neglect it or pretend that nothing happened, otherwise I will die without a burial place." I began to think about how to start this Snake Man Record mission, but after thinking for a long time, I couldn't find it.
Any thoughts.
"This illusory horror bookstore won't trick me, right? It doesn't explain how to start the mission, Peat!" Seeing that more than half an hour had passed, I couldn't help cursing anxiously.
"Am I destined to be deprived of my life?" I shook my head sadly and sighed to myself.
But at this moment, I suddenly had an idea: "Is this how to start the mission?"
As soon as I finished speaking, I quickly picked up the pen and wrote seven words under the small bloody words - start the Snake Man Record mission!
Sure enough, I guessed it right!
"Buzz", a noise exploded in my mind.
Immediately afterwards, a bewitching voice sounded in my ears.
"Congratulations on successfully starting the Snake Man Record mission! If the mission succeeds, you will get corresponding rewards. If the mission fails, your life will be stripped off directly! Warm reminder: Have you ever seen a spliced body? The spliced body is the most beautiful."
This bewildering sound was particularly harsh, like the sound of a saw cutting plastic foam. My ears simply couldn't bear the sound.
Jie, Jie, Jie Jie Jie,
Just when my eardrums were about to rupture, countless fishy smells filled my nose, my eyes darkened and I fainted.
