Because of the heavy rain in the south, the roof structure of most buildings is dominated by spires, and it is easy for rainwater to slide down the slope to the rain gutter, and the more rainwater there is, the slope of the roof tends to be larger. However, perhaps it was built with other uses in mind, or perhaps because of the large size of the room, the roof of the library was not very steep, and it was very smooth to walk on, and the masonry guardrail along the eaves was more than a foot high, so it would not feel dangerous.

In the middle of the roof was a pile of things, covered with a waterproof tarpaulin, which was large and tightly covered, and the four corners were pressed with bricks.

"Remove the bricks, lift the tarpaulin." Teacher Guan instructed the two children to work, and he also bent down to take away the bricks that pressed the tarpaulin, Tan Xiaotian and Lin Zicong had quick legs and feet, and ran around the tarpaulin to move all the bricks away, and then the two of them grabbed the corner of the tarpaulin and lifted it off, revealing the neat wooden frame for drying books arranged inside, the structure of the wooden frame is similar to an ordinary single bed, but the part of the bed board is not a heavy wooden board but a mat made of bamboo, so although the volume of each shelf is large, the weight is not weightless, Eight or nine-year-old children like Tan Xiaotian and Lin Zicong can easily move two at a time.

Tan Xiaotian and Lin Zicong are the first time to participate in the book drying activity, but Teacher Guan is a veteran in doing this kind of work, he first asked the two children to put the drying beds piled together on the roof, each drying bed is separated by two feet, and he took paper and pencils, and numbered the drying beds one by one according to the order of the bookshelves in this treasure library and pasted them on the head of the bed.

Take the two children to the end, do their own demonstration to move a stack of books to the roof to dry, and then let the two children do the same several times by themselves, until they have fully mastered a few steps of drying books, then rest assured to leave to check the situation of several other books, before leaving, do not specifically tell the two to work without worry, feel tired to find a place to rest first. It's not too late to do it when you're resting, it's important not to let the books be damaged, just mess up, and you can't leave the Zhenshuguan during the drying of books, except for himself and his two assistants, no one will be allowed to come in, and after he goes out, he will lock the door of the Zhenshuku from the outside, and if there is anything, he can shout from the roof to the people down to inform him, and the two children are full of words. He left the Treasure Library, and with a soft click, the door was locked again.

After the teacher left, the two children continued to work, although the two of them are good, fortunately, the collection of books in the library is much less than the number outside, except for each time before moving the books have to be numbered to avoid confusion and a little trouble, all the steps are just errands, there is no technical content. The two of them were busy back and forth for more than an hour, and then they took out all the books and dried them, and the two of them were also tired, with a sore back and weak legs. Sweating profusely, Tan Xiaotian was born in the countryside, and although his body shape does not look strong, his foundation is good. Although his body is tired, his spirit is still very strong, and Lin Zicong is a little worse in comparison. After setting up the last book, the whole person was tired and paralyzed, lying on the roof, spreading his hands and feet in the sun on all fours, and he didn't even want to move his fingers.

"Brother Zicong, don't fall asleep, the roof is windy, you are sweating again, and it is easy to catch a cold when you fall asleep." Seeing Lin Zicong lying on the roof with his eyes closed and pretending to be dead, Tan Xiaotian hurriedly reminded kindly.

"I'm too tired to move, so it's not bad to blow a cool breeze like this." With his eyes closed, Lin Zicong said, indeed, when he was at home, it was impossible for him to do such physical work, if his parents saw him tired like this, the housekeeper who was responsible for taking care of him would definitely be punished with dozens of whips, punished for two or three days and not allowed to eat, but at this time, at that time, he also entered the chess academy, no matter how good the family background is, it will not play much role here, and in many teachers, it is difficult for students to get direct benefits no matter how much money they have at home. On the contrary, it is not as worry-free as those students whose family conditions are poor but they are diligent and inquisitive, so after more than two years of school, many of the problems of his rich boy brother have been wiped out a lot, and a cool breeze blows after labor, not to mention how refreshing it feels.

"That's not good, if you're tired, go to sleep, I remember there's a little bed there, how solid it is to sleep there." Tan Xiaotian is a person who has been sick, knows how uncomfortable it is to get sick, how dangerous, when he was in Meilong Town, he often heard Pang Laosi brag about Kanshan, ten miles away from Meilong Town, there is a small village called Qingshigou, there is a hunter surnamed Tian in the village, in his thirties, strong body, once killed a lone wolf with his bare hands, just because the weather was too hot one summer to sleep, so he lay on a bluestone in the yard for a night, and as a result, he had a stroke when he got up the next morning, and the whole left side of his body could not move, and it was acupuncture, It took more than half a year to barely recover, but the original dragon and tiger were no longer able to go up the mountain to hunt and chase the tiger to drive the wolf. He didn't know that there was a danger of catching a cold if he slept on the roof in a situation like Lin Zicong's current situation, but in line with the principle of 'not afraid of 10,000, just in case', there was no need to take such an unnecessary risk.

"What about you?" Lin Zicong also knew that it was refreshing to sweat and blow a cool breeze, but there was a danger of getting sick, he was just too tired to move.

"I'm not tired and want to read a book. You didn't listen to Mr. Guan, the books in the Zhenshu Library are usually only read by the dean, the school supervisor, Mr. Zhao, Mr. Li and a limited number of other people, after today, I don't know when I can come in again, so I want to take this opportunity to read a few more. Tan Xiaotian replied.

"Uh, no wonder they all praise you for being a good student, and you're still in the mood to read when you're so tired? Terrific. But then again, there must be three or four hundred books here, and it will only be two hours at most between now and the sun goes down. Sighing, Lin Zicong asked, in his mind, such a good weather, rather than wasting time on reading, it is better to have a good night's sleep.

"If you can read a book, besides, not every book needs to be seen from the beginning to the end, if you think it is interesting, you should read it less." Tan Xiaotian replied.

That's right, there's no reason to eat the whole egg to know it's bad. Okay, I'll go to bed, and you can work on your own. Thinking about it, Lin Zicong got up from the ground and went back to the house to sleep. (To be continued......)
