Chapter 404: The Note from the Dream Study Sector
Chapter 404: The Note from the Dream Study Sector
"Is there any problem?" Lin Yi asked back.
"Do you know what you just did..." The female dormitory manager opened her mouth but didn't say anything else, "Forget it, whatever you want..."
"I know." Lin Yi said.
The female dormitory manager was stunned.
"I've always known about it." Lin Yi said, "Those things surrounded us, and I heard all the chirping sounds... I just didn't have time to pay attention to them. But thank you anyway."
The female dormitory manager's expression gradually changed.
"So, at first... you really wanted to touch my legs?"
She put her hands on her hips and stared at Lin Yi fiercely.
Lin Yi's face changed drastically. No way, sister, what on earth is this woman's logic? What the hell is the connection? Damn, can you deduce this...
Seeing Lin Yi's expression, the female dormitory manager knew that she had hit the nail on the head on this guy, and she snorted, "Pervert."
Lin Yi twitched his lips and said, "Why don't we talk about something serious?"
"I'm telling you, in a place like this, apart from talking about unimportant things, once you start talking about other things, it's easy to get bored. Do you understand?"
"Oh! You reminded me!" Lin Yi suddenly realized that the female dormitory manager's approach was actually very similar to Wei Liang's, "That's exactly what we should do!"
"Why else do you think I keep bringing up some obscure things?" the female dormitory manager asked.
"Ah? Isn't it possible to use this as an excuse to do it openly and legitimately?" Lin Yi was stunned.
"Get out!!!" A faint blush appeared on the female dormitory manager's face, which was unnaturally pale.
Lin Yi curled his lips and said, "Go away if you want."
He began to wander around the Dream Science section, but didn't go too far, so as not to accidentally go too far and enter some collection area that he shouldn't have come across.
It goes without saying that the collection area must be extraordinary and must contain great secrets, but time is very tight now, he has to find a way to return to the campus first. As for the secrets of the library, he can only wait until he has the chance to come back in the future.
The prerequisite for exploration is always to ensure your own safety first.
He strolled around casually, thinking that if there was a book that particularly interested him, he would pick it up and take a look.
As for the areas above the second floor of the library... he had no intention of going there for the time being.
As he moved, those fanatics also moved slowly with him, as if waiting for him to become absorbed in reading again.
They had no intention of letting go of this piece of fat meat. After all, if Lin Yi got his hands on it now, it would be enough for them to eat for three years.
Lin Yi completely understood the fanatics' thoughts, and knew that they had no way to deal with him now. As long as he was still sane, they would not be able to deal with him with that level of "bewitching" at all.
As he was walking, he suddenly noticed that something seemed to be sticking out of the bookshelf in front of him, like a piece of paper with a part of it stuck in it.
"Hey, little note!"
"Eh, why do I have to say 'yo'? Damn, have I gotten used to this?"
[When reading, don't scribble on the book. If you see small pieces of paper falling out of the book, don't believe their contents, they are written by others, just put them back into the book. ]
That's what the Library Guidelines say, but Lin Yi knows the underlying logic of the note, so he's not afraid.
What is the underlying logic of the note?
Nature is what the polluter writes down based on his own cognition and the environment he is in at the time. It has a certain timeliness and absolute subjectivity.
The purpose of writing on a piece of paper is to remind yourself after you forget something. Otherwise, who would write a note?
Therefore, if you are not afraid, there is no need to avoid it.
So he walked to the bookshelf, reached out to take the book, and then opened it to the page with the paper.
The female dormitory manager had been following Lin Yi, and seeing this, she couldn't help but want to remind him, but when the words came to her lips, she pursed her lips and said nothing more. She just looked at Lin Yi silently, somewhat curious about what this "gentleman" was trying to do.
After all, she just remembered that Lin Yi was not the dormitory manager at all.
A person who had the identity of a dormitory manager and an old kerosene lamp, but abandoned his identity and discarded the old kerosene lamp when the elevator arrived at the library. The secret hidden behind just this one behavior is very fascinating.
Lin Yi also knew that the female dormitory manager was following him, but he didn't know what the female dormitory manager was thinking.
He looked at the note. There were only some messy handwriting on it, like ghostly scribbles. After some identification, he could roughly make out a few words:
"Don't... go near... the collection... area... it's full of... corpses... moving... help..."
There are also some that I cannot identify, which seem to have gone beyond the scope of words. They are like some strange symbols drawn in an unknown mental state, faintly emitting an evil power that does not belong to words.
"Collection area? Full of moving corpses..." Lin Yi was slightly stunned.
How can a corpse move?
How can something that moves be a corpse?
Is it a fake human sculpture?
Lin Yi thought about it and felt that it was not the case.
The pseudo-human sculpture shouldn't have the ability to enter the library, right?
Is there a third way for them to leave the campus, with the layer connecting to the library?
He thought about it for a moment, then put the paper back into the book and put the book back.
Compared with that sentence, those strange symbols are more valuable for research.
To Lin Yi, those symbols seemed like an archaeologist who accidentally fell through the ice and saw a corner of the mysterious world that was eternally frozen under the ice. After the archaeologist escaped, he recorded part of what he saw based on that quick glimpse, and finally formed such symbols on paper.
"What's written on the paper?" Just as he was about to leave, the female dormitory manager came up to him curiously.
Lin Yi curled his lips: "The paper said that there are many large-scale artworks in the collection area."
The female dormitory manager's eyes lit up: "Did they say how big the scale is?"
"You really get excited when this happens?" Lin Yi couldn't help but hold his forehead, as if he saw a female version of Wei Liang.
"Looking at the text, it's probably quite explicit. If you're interested, you can go take a look."
Many times, he felt that the female dormitory manager's physical desire did not seem to be acted out.
"No." The female dormitory manager who was still excited a second ago turned around and refused, "The security will be here soon, I don't have time to waste."
"Oh, you know all this? This is not your first time here, you seem to have a lot of experience?" Lin Yi asked tentatively.
The female dormitory manager shook her head and said, "No... Why? Can't you have intuition the first time?"
"Okay, okay, you're awesome." Lin Yi said no more. He even suspected that this female dormitory manager was not visiting the campus for the first time. Apart from giving him the feeling of a "newbie" at the beginning, her every move now exuded the aura of a "second-time god of war".
This female dormitory manager was most likely a second-timer who was very well hidden and had superb acting skills, or at least she had entered some other places similar to S City University. How to describe that feeling... He always felt that this female dormitory manager had some kind of ultimate skill or something.
It's impossible to be so confident with just an old kerosene lamp.
What's more, judging from the fanatic's tone, it seemed that the old kerosene lamp in the dormitory manager's hand was different from the one in the security guard's hand, and perhaps the "power" was a little lacking.
He put his thoughts aside and casually moved around the Dream Studies sector, occasionally scanning some scraps of paper.
"There is a voice calling from the end of the corridor... But the corridor has no end... That door... cannot be reached..."
"Don't believe what the administrator says..."
"The curator is eating people on the eighth floor..."
"I want to eat spaghetti with tomato meat sauce..."
"Be careful... there's someone above you..."
"Chains... all chains..."
"Snakes... So many snakes..."
"Help……"
……
After reading several pieces of paper in a row, Lin Yi frowned. Although the information in these small pieces of paper was not completely useless, it was indeed too complicated. There were all kinds of information... He couldn't make any clues at all.
He shook his head helplessly, but it made sense. With his current level of knowledge, how could he be contaminated by a piece of paper?
He continued to move, slowly wandering around the Dream Studies sector, his eyes constantly scanning the bookshelves.
The books on the bookshelf had more and more incomprehensible characters on the side covers. Some of the books did not look like they were in Chinese, but he did not seem to notice anything unusual when he walked among them...
The female dormitory manager who was following Lin Yi suddenly found that Lin Yi stopped in front of a bookshelf, maintaining a certain moving posture, with a hazy mist rising from his body, as if he was wandering...
"This...?!" The female dormitory manager opened her mouth in shock, "Is this 'Dream Building'?!"
She was surprised and delighted. She had only seen dream-building in textbooks, but now it was happening right in front of her!
She quickly quickened her pace and walked towards them. However, after she had taken a few steps, she discovered that the familiar bookshelves began to twist and the ground beneath her feet began to change strangely.
She felt an extremely terrifying feeling, as if she would lose her life if she went any further!
"This, this is the Dream Builder's territory...?!"
She was so shocked that an expression of joy appeared on her face that she couldn't hide.
She picked up the old kerosene lamp and tried to get closer to Lin Yi under the protection of its light.
She succeeded. The "field" that had been like a quagmire that trapped her steps seemed to be weakened a little under the light of the old kerosene lamp.
However, at this moment, she suddenly noticed that the layer of light mist floating on Lin Yi's body floated quietly, and an illusory figure appeared in the light mist.
It was a figure as thin as a bamboo pole, with a very vague outline and a hazy face. But among all the blurred light and shadow, that gloomy look seemed to penetrate through the layers. When it fell on the female dormitory manager, she couldn't help but stiffen her body and break out in a cold sweat.
“Gulp…”
She swallowed, a hint of fear appeared in her eyes, and then she slowly stepped back, not daring to get close to Lin Yi in this state.
However, at this moment, Lin Yi did not notice anything unusual, nor did he realize that his "body" had stopped.
In his understanding, he was still wandering in the dream science sector.
He didn't notice anything unusual at all, his mind was extremely clear, clear... just like the "him" who thought he was not affected at all on the night of May 5.
Gradually, he seemed to smell a strange smell. The smell was very faint, hidden in the air. He didn't know where it came from. It was an indescribable faint fragrance, but it was like the lingering smell of feet that could not be traced back to its source.
The smell began to creep into his nostrils from the moment he sensed it.
He stopped.
The Library Rules states: [On any floor, if you find that the surrounding environment changes while you are moving, such as the light starts to dim or there is wind or fog in the air, please stop whatever you are doing and observe whether the situation still exists. If not, you can continue to move. If the situation still exists and starts to deteriorate, please return immediately.]
"We can't go any further."
He was clearly aware of the problem, but he didn't know that his consciousness had already left his body and moved forward an unknown distance.
As if the book had sensed his intention in reverse, the sound of pages turning slowly rang in his ears.
“Clatter…”
The sound of pages turning never stopped, like a very thick book being blown by the wind, the yellowed papers turning over and over, making a sound like the waves of the sea.
He wanted to retreat, but the countless bookshelves in front of him suddenly moved on their own as if they had life...
He soon realized that it was not the bookshelves that were moving, but the ground beneath his feet.
The floors of this ivory-carved ball-like library began to move!
He didn't need to move or do anything. As the library floors moved, the holes in each floor began to align with each other. Finally, a deep passage quietly appeared before his eyes!
He doesn't look at the mountains, the mountains come to him!
His sight thus traversed countless floors of the library, and on a bookshelf somewhere in the passage, he saw a book with floating gray mist and green light.
There seemed to be text written in strange symbols on the side cover of the book. He couldn't understand the text, but it was wriggling and changing in front of him, and finally appeared in a way that he could understand.
The Lawmaker's Words
The moment he saw the book, he suddenly felt an itch on his left hand and it lifted up uncontrollably. The five fingers on his palm seemed to have their own thoughts and they began to "click" like the knuckles of a puppet. But no matter what the rhythm of the twisting was, it all pointed to the book "The Lawmaker" in the end.
At the same time, some sporadic notes began to sound in the air, "ding ding dong dong", and the familiarity made him feel scared.
Those are the notes from "Amon's Music Box".
Sure enough, as the music box sounded, the black nursery rhyme seemed to ring in his ears...
[Children, play hide and seek~ hide one by one or two...]
[The small yard is a good place~ Brothers and sisters hide...]
[Dig and dig, turn and turn...]
