"Later, when the devastating catastrophe ended, the last survivors of the South finally escaped the most terrible destruction, but this is not over, the era of severe cold brought about by the sudden climate change is about to become a long test, however, in the future, all the worlds that have died will usher in a new life." Compared with the ancient Chinese dictionary spread out on the side, it took several hours to completely translate the remaining thousands of words, Xiaoxi slowly read the last paragraph of the book with the pronunciation of ancient Chinese, and seemed to be still immersed in the irresistible truth of the story, after a long silence, she closed the book in her hand again, let the lid with the embedded magnet close automatically, and gently stroked the old title on the outside of the sealed box with her fingertips.

Although the people of the sea sea can use ultrasound language for most of the time, they are not completely incapable of producing their voices like the moon prayer people, although they may feel a little uncomfortable in their throat, but the people of the tide sea can make the sound of the moon prayer people's language, and the frequency range of their vocal cords completely covers the frequency range of the moon prayer people's voices, of course, the language of the Xin Yu people mixed with electromagnetic waves is another matter......

"Dawn - A Thousand Years of Prayer for the Moon", an ancient Chinese book that she took more than two months to fully translate, describes the story of a terrestrial civilization called Prayer for the Moon, and she doesn't know if the story is true, because there has never been any record of praying for the moon in the maze of books and schools outside. The Shiokai were only able to move briefly along the coast, and their total population was too sparse compared to the size of the world, so most of the problems of the terrestrial world were still mysteries, and even explorers could not push their physical limits to go far inland.

She sighed softly, looking at the tough piece of plastic in her hand and the sharp knife beside her. Instead of providing students with electronic devices to write, the city used cheap plastic sheets and knives as writing tools in the sea. The plastic sheet itself is composed of two layers, black and white, and no matter which side you start to engrave, you can see the shape of the engraved text as long as the reverse color on the back is exposed.

But to be honest, there are really a lot of inconveniences in this way of recording, and the first thing new students do when they first start practicing calligraphy is to practice how to master the strength of engraving...... If the force is too small, it will not be able to penetrate the surface, and if the force is too strong, it will directly pierce the entire plastic sheet, and the more critical problem is that this troublesome way of writing is really a very physically demanding work, such as the punishment of copying the entire text or something, which is basically the same corporal punishment as moving bricks...... Probably.

In a sense, thanks to the fact that the physical strength of the people of Xihai is really good, and the hydraulically controlled exoskeleton structure provides them with relatively large strength, even so, when Xiaoxi recorded the entire translated manuscript on these plastic sheets, he also felt that his right hand was so numb that he was about to lose consciousness at this moment.

She straightened her right hand and moved it, and only got up from her chair when she felt a little better, yes, in this mysterious secret room, in addition to the bookshelves, there was also an entire stone desk and chair, and since it was completely immersed in seawater, there was no need to worry that these tables and chairs would be completely covered in dust. As for the problem of dust accumulation in the seawater...... Obviously, although you can't feel the obvious flow, the sea water inside is definitely living water, and there must be a special water passage in this room, because even the creatures living in the sea water do not mean that they will not suffocate, they also breathe the oxygen in the sea water, if it is really a secret room that has rarely been opened for thousands of years and is not living water, it can definitely suffocate the people of the tide sea who enter it.

Perhaps the water system here is also in charge of the mysterious Miss Bai Yu, thinking to Xiaoxi as she puts the completely closed box back in its original place on the shelf, as she looks at the ancient Chinese books she has not yet read, and her heart is still immersed in the catastrophic era that was destroyed by the monstrous flood. There are many similar stories here, and most of them are stories that are unprovable and unprovable without any evidence from the outside world. She was once found by a classmate who recorded those plastic pieces of translation notes, and she thought that the secret she had been keeping was about to be discovered, but the other party did not have any surprise after reading it, but looked at her with admiration: "I didn't expect the novel you secretly wrote is really wonderful." ”

"Huh? You think this is a novel I wrote secretly? ”

"Of course, this kind of weird plot is a made-up story no matter how you look at it, but I didn't expect Xiaoxi to have such a rich imagination."

At that time, Xiaoxi was only stunned for a long time, but she was not able to continue to refute, because even she didn't know whether these were true records or fictional novels, and the co-author of these books, the existence of the person named Xinglan, she had never heard of.

Once, Xiaoxi simply found Teacher Shanfeng directly and asked if these were true stories, but Teacher Shanfeng just smiled and touched her head with a funny smile, with a light face: "You can take them as real, or you can treat these as simple stories, it all depends on you, right?" ”

Doesn't that mean saying nothing?

After repeatedly hitting the wall, Xiaoxi no longer asks this question, because she actually knows in her heart that there is probably only one way to prove whether these things are real history or fictional novels, and that is to personally examine the world in these ancient books.

However, people like praying for the moon can still collect evidence, and maybe there is hope to discover the truth in their lifetime, but ...... Xiaoxi smiled bitterly, and looked at the other book she had read before on the bookshelf, the book called "Memories - Penglai of the Night", the things recorded in it even exceeded the limit of her imagination in this life, called Yelai Star, an infinitely distant and unreachable place, and even completely disappeared in the end. She prefers to treat the contents of the book as stories, because they are obviously destined to be eternal mysteries, and there is no chance of verifying them.

If, she was saying that if everything recorded in this book was true, then compared to that earth-shattering horror, not to mention herself, I am afraid that the entire Holy City would ...... Ah no, the entire race of the people of the tide is too small to attract the slightest notice.

Thinking of this, she somewhat understood the meaning in Mr. Shanfeng's words, what is what you can choose to believe or choose not to believe. If she chooses not to believe these stories, she can put them back in their place now, walk out of this hidden secret room and never come back, but ...... How can you give up, curiosity is the innate characteristic of every living being, compared to the books that are not too many here, what is the entire labyrinth of books outside?

"Xinglan...... Who are you? Gently stroking the names of the authors on the sides of these books, Xiaoxi felt her heart beating faster and faster, there seemed to be some terrible secret hidden behind it, but the more this secret attracted her to want to know, gradually, she looked at another book that she had not yet read, but the title of the book had been translated...... "Heavenly Dream - Star Origin".

The more she knew, the more dangerous it became, but this thirst for the truth was like a drug, and she couldn't resist it, and before she knew it, she reached for the ancient book that seemed to tell her something......

Click......

Just as Xiaoxi's fingers were about to touch the sealed box of the book in front of her, the sound of the stone slab mechanism at the entrance of the secret room suddenly sounded behind her. In this silent environment, where mental tension was almost at its limit, this sudden sound almost immediately made Xiaoxi almost collapse to the ground, and she quickly turned around to look at the figure slowly walking through the slender stone staircase passage where the entrance opened again.

"Ahhhh......h

……

So, a few minutes later.

"So, have you calmed down a little now......" Xiaoxi looked helplessly at the boy in front of him who had not fully recovered his soul, that's right, it wasn't her who let out that terrible scream just now, but the boy in front of him who was a lot taller than her, the other party seemed to be so frightened that he almost lost his soul the moment he saw her, "Am I so terrible?" ”

The boy opened his mouth as if to say something, but sat weakly on the steps behind him, his palm pressed to his heart and gasped violently, it seemed that he still hadn't fully recovered from the shock just now, and only after a while did he say, "Terrible, really terrible......"

"So, what's so scary?" Although he didn't think that he had grown to the extent of captivating the city and the country, Xiaoxi also felt that he was definitely not the kind of monster that was so terrible that he could stop children crying at night in the aesthetics of the Xihai people, "Why are you completely inexplicable?" ”

"Yes, I'm sorry." In the end, the boy who suddenly broke in seemed to have finally fully figured out the situation, and apologized to Xiaoxi again and again, "It's just that, I just thought I had found a very old secret room, and then after walking down the long passage, I suddenly found that there was a person standing in the secret room in front of him who couldn't see his face clearly, he was so short that he was abnormally tall, and he was holding a sharp carving knife and suddenly turned around and ......"

"Well, I can't blame you." Xiaoxi thought about her reaction to this situation, and suddenly realized something that didn't seem quite right, and suddenly showed a grim smile, waving the carving knife in her hand, "What did you just say is so short?" ”

"Nothing, absolutely nothing, it must be all an illusion!" The boy in front of him looked at Xiaoxi, who seemed to have something black spilling out of his back, and even his voice trembled strongly, "That, I'm sorry, I really didn't know that this was actually a place where people lived......"

"It's okay, it's supposed to be a public area, but you say you don't know about it? So how did you get in? Xiaoxi looked at the boy in front of her a little strangely, "There is no guide to find here, ......"

Soon, Xiaoxi's exclamations of disbelief were replaced in the secret room.

"You, you...... Did you use the name of the mystery book that you rolled out with your face rolling keyboard to find the entrance to this place precisely from Miss Bai Xi? ”
