Chapter 5 Vena Library
"That's... Chief Xingluo, did you bring back my leaf..."Xiao said euphemistically, he was a little afraid of the chief in front of him, afraid that he would take him to prison for the crime of hiding plants.
"Don't call me Chief Xingluo." He shook his head helplessly, and smirked twice, feeling that the title blocked the communication between the two, "Just call me Uncle Luo." ”
Xiao nodded, as if he felt that the chief in front of him was not very bad, he was a little approachable, and it seemed that people couldn't just look at their appearance.
"I'm a little excited when you talk about the leaves." He dug through his pockets with his hand, and it took him a long time to find the leaf and put it on the table, "Guess what?" ”
Xiao didn't understand, isn't this just a leaf? It seems to have no characteristics other than the color difference from other leaves.
"Hey, look at your ignorant little eyes. I went to Vena Library half a year ago to read the book, I stayed in it for a month, and there was one book that was completely different from the others, that book was about prophecy, and I remember that there was a piece in it that recorded this withered yellow but no brittle leaves. ”
His eyes widened when he heard the Luo Library, he used to pass by there often when he was working outside, but it was almost sealed and he couldn't see the inside, it was said that this was the only library in Farr, which stored all the books that were left of mankind and the books written later, but the tickets were too expensive, which made him work harder to make money because his family was not good, and he thought that one day he would go here to read all the books to understand the mysteries of the world.
"Do you want me to take you there? Xiao ghost? He pulled Xiao's hand and put the leaves on the table into his palms, and his intuition told him that it would not be wrong, this was the leaf that was talked about in the book in the Vena Library half a year ago!
"Imp??! I'm seventeen, and you still call me a little ghost!? "Because this is Farr, there is no rule that your parents must raise you to adulthood, you can go out to work and earn money at the age of ten, in fact, when you step into the classroom of the first year of high school, he is already an adult.
"What's wrong?" Xingluo saw that he was angry and then responded to him in a provocative tone, "Isn't it possible to call you an old ghost?" ”
"...."Xiao looked a little helpless, "Let's go to the Vena Library first." ”
"Hello Chief Xingluo!" Xingluo had already decided to take Xiao to the library at this time, and the two guards standing outside the door saw the chief push the door out and came directly with a standard salute, it seems that Xingluo has a very high status here.
Many people saw Chief Xingluo with Xiao, and couldn't understand why he was carrying a little kid, and almost no one knew this kid here, only the boss he used to work for would feel a little familiar.
When he walked to the business district, the oncoming aroma made Xiao's stomach growl, and Xingluo laughed out loud and didn't speak, but took him to buy a few vegetarian burgers.
The two of them came to the Luo Shuguan in laughter, the Luo Shuguan is about twenty meters high, there are almost no window structures, just rely on the lights inside to illuminate the books, which store most of the books before the Fall, for those who are interested, this is really their paradise, but the ticket is very expensive, it costs 500 yuan per person, but it is not limited by time, as long as you buy a ticket to see it here for a lifetime.
Xingluo took him into the library with two tickets in his hand, and the gangsters next to him saw that Xiao, who had been working around here, had now entered the Luoshuguan, and their eyes turned red one by one, but because Xingluo was beside him, several gangsters really didn't dare to do it.
The library was very quiet, and even the sound of flipping books could be heard clearly; There are no walls around, only countless books on the shelves; There are also bookshelves placed in specific areas, this; It's a nerd's paradise, but the tickets are too expensive, and the five hundred yuan is equivalent to three or four months' salary for Xiao.
"Hey, Curator, what about the 'Future Prophecy'?" Xingluo asked a person who was concentrating on reading a book, this person seemed to be the curator, and gradually he was like a person who bought a ticket to read a book together, and he really didn't know that this was the curator without asking.
"Xingluo." The curator got up and shook his hand, "It's still in the old place, you can find it yourself." The curator sat down again, as if he was reading attentively but was disturbed.
Xingluo didn't blame him, but took Xiao to find the book, because he still remembered exactly where the book was, so he quickly took him to find the book.
The name of the summer vacation was "Future", and he pulled the book from the shelf, but the book was very thin, less than a centimeter in size. The cover of the book is a black flower, and although it is a painting, it looks very attractive, and there is an indescribable urge to get it. Next to the flowers, a few people poked their heads into looking at the black flowers, like people who have been hungry for a long time seeing food.
"This cover is..."
"You've found out, too." Xing Luo could understand Xiao, "The flowers on this are so tempting just in the picture. As he spoke, he flipped to the end, and could clearly see that the next few pages had been torn out.
"I guess the torn pages are the ones that record the plant on the cover." Xiao nodded, although he couldn't explicitly say that a book with plants on the cover must record the plants on the cover, but he couldn't deny that this matter might have really been torn off.
As they chatted, they came to a table and sat down, eating and looking at the book that seemed to record the future.
Xingluo didn't turn it over to him, but found the page with the withered yellow leaves from memory.
"Look." He placed the book in Shaw's eyes and motioned for him to take out the leaf, "Isn't it exactly the same?" ”
Xiao saw it and subconsciously touched his pocket, took out the leaf and compared it to the painting in the book, and it was exactly the same.
It is stated that this leaf is formed in the destroyed tree, which means that it is made into various items such as books, furniture, etc.
"It's amazing, you go down the page and you'll see that all the leaves are transferred from one tree to somewhere else." Xiao turned the page down and saw the tree.
This tree is called Ella, it is no different from other trees, but the leaves will be different, it says that the tree is about ten meters high, and the book predicts that this tree only grows on the surface of the earth, and its birth means that all plants are slowly adapting to the new environment and have mutated.
"It's amazing that the leaves are transferred to the trees that have been destroyed."
"You go on."
Xiao flipped the page down and continued to read, but he suddenly became serious when he had been looking at it with relish.
"This! Should we talk about it! ”
