"Please, make me a bit more villainous," the female ghost next to her whispered.
Sang Mian was silent. The corpse's face in front of her was a bloody mess. Wasn't that villain...
158 Weird Library 1
◎Records of Human History◎
Sang Mian hesitated, thought about it and decided to tell the truth: "We are almost at the Weird Library. The fragments of the Silver Weird Eye map have been collected. The things are in the library."
"Mysterious library?" Lin Buchi: "I'll go there right away."
There was a busy tone on the other end of the phone. Sang Mian looked at the phone in confusion, "Lin Buchi is coming to see me."
Xia Qing narrowed his eyes vigilantly: "He wants to steal the Silver Ghost Eye? Haha... The Silver Ghost Eye is ours!"
Bai Tang: "Don't worry about him, we are definitely faster than him."
Sang Mian didn’t care. Anyway, she was now at the level of an evil spirit, and Lin Buchi couldn’t snatch it from her.
The car stopped steadily in front of the strange library, and the three of them got out hand in hand. The library was built in an ancient style, like a large courtyard house, and there was a sturdy locust tree planted in the central courtyard.
An old man stood in the middle of the courtyard with a cane.
Xia Qing whispered: "He should be the director of the library, right?"
Bai Tang's focus was different from hers. She looked around suspiciously and asked, "Are there no monsters reading books in the library? How come I don't see any monsters?"
The old man noticed that there was a visitor in the library, and looked at the visitor with lifeless eyes, "Hello, please go to the left or right to borrow books, no one is allowed in the middle hall."
The old man's eyes were too sharp, a pair of eyes that could see through everyone's heart, they were vicissitudes and full of experience.
Sang Mian thought for a moment and said, "We are not here to read books, we are here to get something."
The old man raised his drooping eyelids and snorted from his nose, "Oh? Strange, my library does not have your belongings. Please look for something else."
Seeing that the old man was not going to listen, Sang Mian directly took out the complete map from the panel and said, "Don't pretend. What we are looking for is in the library. If you don't believe me, take a look."
The old man was silent for a while, and his eyes moved from the map to Sang Mian's face. She didn't know if it was Sang Mian's illusion, but she felt that there was a strong sadness in the old man's eyes.
"Come with me." The old man walked towards the central hall and opened the large ancient door. Rows of solid wooden bookshelves two people high came into view.
The bookshelf was filled with books wrapped in yellow covers. Sang Mian noticed that there was no dust on the bookshelf and it was so clean that it reflected light. The old man must have wiped it every day.
"The books here record the life of human beings, from their birth to death, illness to recovery. Good deeds and bad deeds are all recorded in this book, so it is called the Records of Human Past." The old man slowly introduced the origin of the book.
Xia Qing didn't believe it after hearing this. She muttered, "I don't believe it. With such a large population, how could there be only so few books?"
The old man said in a disembodied voice: “What you see may not be true.”
Xia Qing seemed to be thinking about something. "Oh, I hid it. That's quite profound."
The old man: "That's understandable."
The three of them followed the old man inside. After walking past eight bookshelves, the old man stopped. He paused and then walked deeper into the bookshelf until he reached the end of the bookshelf.
Xia Qing was slightly excited. "The Silver Ghost Eye is on the bookshelf? Are we going to get the Silver Ghost Eye?!"
“No.” Sang Mian shook his head. “It looks like he’s holding a book.”
"Who is Bai Tang?" the old man suddenly spoke.
Bai Tang was a little nervous, "It's me."
The old man really took a book from the bookshelf. He opened the title page and read it carefully before saying, "Your wish is to inherit the family business."
Bai Tang raised an eyebrow, "There's this on top?"
The old man replied: "Everyone's life and past will be recorded in a book, and desires are no exception."
Xia Qing covered her mouth, "Really? No privacy at all? Then the erotic stories I read are also recorded?"
The old man was puzzled: "Color literature? What is color literature... Let me see..." He took out another book, and after a while he said: "Is it the Evil Senior's Love? Or the Adventures of a Handsome Guy on an Island? Or... "
"Stop! Stop it!" Xia Qing wanted to rush forward and cover his mouth, but respecting the elderly and loving the young were good virtues engraved in her bones, so she endured it!
Xia Qing smiled awkwardly: "There's no need to explain it in such detail, that's enough, thank you if you have the nerve to do so."
The old man didn't understand why Xia Qing reacted so violently. It didn't matter. He didn't want to understand. The long passage of time made him lose interest in doing anything.
However, Sang Mian and Bai Tang showed malicious smiles on their faces.
"Tsk tsk, it turns out Xiaoqing's heart is so rich and colorful." Sang Mian said.
Bai Tang shook her head and advised like a caring older sister: "You are young, don't hurt your body, watch less in the future."
Xia Qing's face was red like a cooked shrimp. She never thought that after escaping the browser's traceless, she couldn't escape the human past record in the end! Her image was ruined, completely ruined!
"Don't hurt me, we are no match for each other." Sang Mian touched her head and said lovingly, "But Tangtang is right, don't be too picky in the future, you are the future pillar of the motherland!"
Xia Qing: “…” She just wanted to dig a hole right there and crawl into it!
The records of the three people's past lives were pulled out one by one. Bai Tang noticed that Mianmian's book was very thin, and seemed to have only a few pages compared to the other two books.
She pointed at the thinnest record of human past and asked, "Are there any words on Mianmian's record of human past? Why does it feel like there's only the cover?"
"The secret cannot be revealed." The old man looked at the three people, "Who will start first?"
The three were confused, "Start what?"
The old man said: "You can only get what you want by understanding your obsessions from the records of human history."
Sang Mian tried to understand it in his mind for a long time, then said uncertainly: "You mean we have to experience life again and resolve our obsessions before we can find the Silver Ghost Eye?"
The old man looked at the three people calmly with his turbid but not polluted eyes, and said, "Yes."
"What if I can't understand the obsession?" Sang Mian said.
"Live forever in the history of the human world." The old man said, "There is no difference between that place and the real world. For you, living there is no difference."
Sang Mian frowned, it was indeed not that simple. If he couldn't resolve his obsession, he would remain in the book forever. Which idiot would be willing to that?
"Can you arrange for us to live in the same room?" Sang Mian tried to bargain: "We don't want to be separated."
The old man said coldly: "No."
"Haha...then we won't go in." Sang Mian sneered, "Since you're old, I wanted to talk to you nicely, but I didn't expect you to go so far? You even want to take our lives?"
She directly released the evil spirit-level strange energy to press on the old man, and the strange energy immediately enveloped the library. "Do you know what my strength is? Hand over the Silver Strange Eye quickly, or don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless."
The old man had no fear in his eyes, instead he smiled openly, "You can kill me at any time, believe me, if you kill me you won't get the Silver Ghost Eye."
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
"Mianmian, the old man doesn't seem to be lying." Bai Tang reminded in a low voice.
Sang Mian: “Why?”
Bai Tang: "Didn't you notice? He is not afraid of you at all. Other monsters would have been frightened to death by the evil spirit level."
Sang Mian stared into the old man's eyes, trying to distinguish the truth from the falsehood in his words.
After two minutes of stalemate, she gave in. "Do you really want to resolve this obsession?"
The old man: "Yes, the Silver Ghost Eye is in your obsession."
There was no other way. Sang Mian struggled desperately, "Whoever of us is obsessed with it, can't we just let him go?"
The old man shook his head: "I don't know the exact location."
"Well, it's just a re-experiencing of life, what's the big deal." Xia Qing spread his hands, "I will definitely get out safely, what do you think we should do next?"
The old man placed the record of human history with Xia Qing's name in front of her and said, "Put your hand on it."
Xia Qing did as she was told. After a flash of white light, she disappeared from the library.
"Where's the person?" Sang Mian was surprised, "He's gone just like that?"
The old man asked, "Who's next?"
Bai Tang didn't hesitate. She had to go through this journey to get the Silver Ghost Eye. It didn't matter whether she went early or late. She said indifferently, "I'll do it."
Then she placed her hand on the Record of Human Past, and there was another flash of white light, and she disappeared.
Sang Mian was the only one left in the library. She was shocked. She thought the two friends would hesitate for a long time, but unexpectedly, each one was more efficient than the other.
The last thin record of human past was placed in front of her, and Sang Mian put down her hands with mixed feelings.
A familiar white light appeared in front of her eyes. Sang Mian was blinded by the light and couldn't open her eyes. After a few minutes, the light disappeared from her sight. When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying on the bed.
She took a look and it was still her own bed. Was this her obsession?
“Boom boom boom!”
"Xiao Mian, are you up yet? It's time to eat." Mom's gentle voice came from outside the door, "Don't sleep in, you have to go to school today."
Go to school? Sang Mian's mind was in a trance. Ever since the master said that her eyes were evil and that anyone who got close to her would die, her mother sent her to a boarding school. Although she was reluctant, she did it for the sake of her family.
She walked to the mirror and saw that she looked about 17 or 18 years old. That was not right. At 17 or 18 years old, she should have stayed in the dormitory.
Sang Mian touched her cheek again, it was warm! In this weird game, in order to blend into the Infernal Realm, their bodies were all cold and without body temperature, how could they have temperature!
Is she alive now? This is even more wrong! Sang Mian found that her left eye was blind again and she could not see anything.
What about the weirdness value?
She immediately clicked on the panel in her mind. Fortunately, the panel still existed, showing her strange energy value and props that could be used at any time. Sang Mian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!"
The knocks on the door got louder, and my mother's tone was anxious: "Xiao Mian? Are you awake? Why don't you come back to me? Are you feeling unwell?"
Suppressing the fear in his heart, Sang Mian responded to the door: "Come out right away."
After opening the wardrobe, Sang Mian picked out a piece of clothing, put it on, and hurried out of the room.
Her family is an ordinary family, considered a well-off family. They live in a three-bedroom, one-living-room house with the living room connected to the dining room.
On the dining table were her favorite soy milk and buns. When she was a child, her mother liked to squeeze soy milk for her. She had the illusion of being home.
But this illusion was soon broken.
"Xiao Mian, come and eat." Mom and Dad waved to her while sitting at the dining table.
Sang Mian's eyes were fixed on the dining table. She felt a chilling and eerie aura at the table. The aura was dark and dense, surrounding the entire table, including her parents.
She took a few steps forward, and the strange aura became even more chilling. There was something wrong with her restaurant. There was something inside! Sang Mian was not afraid of strange things, but she couldn't figure out what the meaning of strange things appearing in her house was? Did they want to kill her parents in front of her and cause her mission to fail?
