Chapter 517: Lantern Tower
The sky brightened unconsciously, and in the hazy rain, the orange suddenly dimmed.
Ling Yuan's footsteps paused, and it was always a little surprising that a brilliant light suddenly disappeared in front of him, and besides, he was already lonely and unheard.
The other three were calm.
Xiao Feng deliberately teased him, "The lanterns in this building are more psychic, and they like to go out at night, if you like to see it, you can come to see it at night." ”
Ling Yuan thought about the strange scene where he didn't know how many lanterns went out at the same time just now, and he couldn't help but get goosebumps, smile awkwardly, and stay away from Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng couldn't help but chuckle and didn't care.
Pushing open the old door, even if it is not deserted these days, it still gives people a sense of eternal loneliness.
There was no dust, just a smell of decaying books.
In the dim and hazy space, rows of old brown bookshelves that were so high that they were in the fog were neatly arranged, extending to the front and sides until they could not be seen clearly, as if they were covered with a layer of fog all around, which seemed mysterious and treacherous.
Thinking of Xiao Feng's words, Ling Yuan couldn't help but shudder again and leaned towards the old man.
Xiao Feng glanced inside, as if these blinding methods had no effect on him, and walked in to the side.
The old man didn't ask, and followed.
After walking less than ten feet, a few rows of candles appeared in the clouds, brand new ones that had never been lit.
Xiao Feng glanced at the people behind him and took a step.
The drunken spring breeze was stunned, and seemed to be a little confused, but he didn't say anything, and stepped forward to light a candle.
The candlelight only illuminated a few feet in front of the old man, and he didn't want to share even a little light with others, which was very strange.
The old man glanced at Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng made a gesture of please.
The old man plunged into the sea of books empty-handed.
Ling Yuan didn't know why, so he also nodded and stayed for a while.
Because he saw that the scene around him suddenly became clearer, and the vague feeling disappeared completely.
"What book you want to read, think in your head, you can naturally find it. Xiao Feng said gently.
Ling Yuan turned his head to look at Xiao Feng, but he felt that everything was clear, but the young man in front of him was very illusory.
He looked at the expressionless girl, as real as it had been when the lamp had not been lit.
So, his face was very strange, and he especially wanted to poke Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng also noticed it, and raised his eyebrows in confusion.
Ling Yuan felt like someone had poured cold water on his head, and he suddenly lost his courage and ran into the bookshelf as if he was running away.
Xiao Feng looked at Jian Sweeping Cloud suspiciously.
Jian Xuanyun didn't have any intention of lighting a candle, and pointed inside, "You don't go in?"
"Get in. Xiao Feng said lightly and walked over.
"You don't light a candle and can't see. Jian Xuanyun reminded seriously.
"I can't light the candles here. Xiao Feng said of course.
Jian Xuanyun frowned, not very understanding, but he didn't ask.
Jian Sweeping Cloud has been following Xiao Feng.
She wasn't interested in books, otherwise the old man would have gotten her a mountain of books and a sea of books.
She was just curious.
Before, there were very few things that made her curious.
She looked at Xiao Feng strangely, watching Xiao Feng take out the books from the bookshelf one by one and read them, sometimes when she closed her eyes and thought about it for a while, a book fell from a high place, Xiao Feng caught it and continued to read, she felt even more strange.
"Can you see the words?" she couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm. Xiao Feng didn't raise his head to answer.
Jian Sweep Cloud seemed even more puzzled, "But you didn't light the lamp." ”
"I can't turn on the lights. Xiao Feng still said lightly.
Jian Xuanyun's brows furrowed, she didn't like to think too much, especially when she couldn't figure it out, "Then you shouldn't see it." ”
Xiao Feng glanced up at her, "If it can't help me, I can naturally see it." ”
Jian Xuanyun still didn't understand, his brows furrowed tighter, and his face was a little gloomy.
"I thought you knew. Xiao Feng was a little helpless, he didn't want this girl to lose his temper, although he didn't care much, "This building is like a thinking monster, others must follow its thinking form, but I may threaten it, so although it doesn't want to see me, there is nothing to do." ”
Jian Xuanyun understood a little, but he didn't understand it very well, but his face eased.
She also pulled the book out of the shelf and opened it.
Then, with a frown, and as if annoyed, she put it back again.
Xiao Feng ignored her and continued to flip through the book.
In fact, he has read many books, but some of them are fragments, and some of the contents have been slightly tampered with.
It is difficult to find a complete one.
Fortunately, it's not too much.
There are a lot of books on the shelves, but the lantern tower is so big, maybe bigger than it looks on the surface, and the space is always limited.
Xiao Feng walked while watching, and unconsciously walked to the staircase, glanced up twice, and walked up.
Jian Xuanyun frowned slightly, but did not follow.
The second floor is also a bookshelf, which does not feel gray, but is very bright, and there are slightly fewer books.
Xiao Feng continued to flip through the book.
He had always felt that it was better to know more than to know less, even though it would be tiring.
Before you know it, dawn to dusk.
Xiao Feng looked up, put down the book, and walked downstairs.
During the time when the lanterns were lit, the lantern tower was closed, otherwise what would have happened, no one can say.
He didn't want to bother with the Lantern Tower.
At this time, the sound of clear footsteps suddenly sounded in the empty pavilion.
Xiao Feng paused and sighed.
"The old man is not ready to trouble you, otherwise the girl will not scold the old man to death in her heart. The old man's faint words sounded from the other end.
"Seniors. Xiao Feng bowed slightly, turned and left.
"Why don't you play a game of chess with the old man and then go?" the old man's leisurely voice came again.
Xiao Feng didn't stop.
"You kid didn't win the drunken spring breeze, so he looked down on the old man. There was a bit of coldness in the old man's voice.
Xiao Feng's footsteps paused again and looked around.
The lanterns above their heads shook without the wind, and the bells jingled.
Xiao Feng looked back, and an old man in a gray shirt came slowly.
Some people's words can only be listened to casually.
"If I don't go out, she'll find me. Xiao Feng said lightly.
"Then I'll wait until she comes up. The old man didn't care.
The corners of his mouth suddenly hung a strange arc, "I heard that you slept for three days." ”
"It's a pity that no one knows. Xiao Feng smiled faintly.
"yes, that's a shame. The old man smiled too.
There was a sudden roar all around, and all of a sudden the lights were brilliant.
"I can't get out," said the old man, shaking his head, after a pause, "and I can't get in either." ”
Xiao Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the old man, "Seniors shouldn't be like this." ”
"The most boring thing is to play against a group of people who don't know whether they live or die, whether they win or lose, it's disgusting, but the old man doesn't like to give up halfway," the old man's face was disgusted, "so I want to find a reason." ”
"What about the last game?" Xiao Feng's tone was a little cold.
"The old man is just passing the time, they are not smart places, so they will win. The old man didn't care.
Xiao Feng's heart was a little cold, he was silent for a few breaths, and said lightly, "I'm sorry." ”
A lantern overhead suddenly exploded.
Almost at the same time, a lantern on the first floor exploded.
In an instant, all the lanterns dimmed.
Xiao Feng looked at the old man.
The old man also looked at Xiao Feng.
A young girl in green clothes slowly walked up the stairs and glanced at the old man expressionlessly, "Go back." ”
Xiao Feng shrugged and turned to leave.
After a few breaths, the old man's hysterical cry came from behind him.
"The woman didn't stay, and her elbows turned out......"
Both young men had heard of it.
