They wanted to find Zhuang Jiulang to mock him, but found that he had disappeared long ago.
At this time, Xiao Cunyu had already pulled Zhou Jingmao to the library.
Zhou Jingmao was completely confused and didn't know what to do, while Xiao Cunyu had already taken several keys to the library from the teacher and successfully stepped in.
There are several courtyards in the library, which are filled with an ancient and oppressive atmosphere.
The only courtyard they could enter was the one at the front, which contained some simple books. There was also an old man in the courtyard who was in charge of managing the books.
The old man's back is bent like a harvested rice ear, and he looks quite desolate.
When you get closer, you can faintly smell the strange smell of rotten wood on the old man who collects books.
There was no expression on his pale face, and his eyes were empty and lifeless. He looked at Xiao Cunyu and Zhou Jingmao indifferently, without saying a word. He just took the key, took a look at it, and let them in.
It was the first time Zhou Jingmao saw such a strange-looking person, and he was horrified: "This person looks like a wooden puppet..."
"It's quite rare for a person with a heart as dead as a tree to live so long." Xiao Cunyu said lightly.
"The youngest teacher in our academy is already forty years old, right? When they die of old age, will there be no one left in this academy?" Zhou Jingmao muttered.
As he spoke, he opened the door.
Fortunately, the door didn't creak. It seemed that the academy really paid attention to this place, and the doors and windows were quite new.
There was no smell of dust in the house, it was just a little dim because no one usually came here, which made it seem a little eerie.
"Why did we come here?" Zhou Jingmao felt it was quite cold here.
It was so quiet, and there was a scary old man guarding outside. It was so weird.
"Find the roster." Xiao Cunyu said.
"Roster!? Xiao Qi, is there any secret hidden here? Oh! I see, Wanjun Academy also enrolled students from Liguo and Changguo in the past. Could there be a list of spies hidden here?!" Zhou Jingmao was very excited.
"You're thinking too much." Xiao Cunyu rolled his eyes at him. "I just want the student roster from back then, and I'm looking for someone."
Zhou Jingmao didn't believe it.
He now felt that Xiao Cunyu was a person who was secretly hiding something important!
Zhou Jingmao was about to say something when he saw a tall shadow suddenly appear on the ground!
Zhou Jingmao was so scared that he almost jumped up and shouted "Ahhh" twice. Xiao Cunyu was also frightened by his sudden voice. He trembled and almost jumped onto the bookcase.
"What are you looking for? Let me help." Zhuang Jiulang's voice rang out.
Zhou Jingmao heaved a sigh of relief when he saw it was him: "Why are you here? Do you want to scare me to death?!"
Zhuang Jiulang said innocently, "You two are timid. This is the library. Anyone can come here with the master's permission."
"That's not right? You didn't even pass any of the ten-day exams, so why should we let you in?!" Zhou Jingmao was not convinced. He got in based on his real ability, so what was Zhuang Jiulang?!
"I volunteered to clean the study, and the teacher agreed," Zhuang Jiulang said modestly.
Zhou Jingmao felt relieved after hearing this, and said with pride: "I see, I knew you were different from people like me who passed the ten-day exam!"
Zhuang Jiulang said nothing more. He walked in and looked at the terrified Xiao Cunyu. He thought her fear was quite strange. "It's okay for Zhou Jingmao to be as timid as a mouse, but why are you like this too?"
During the competition, he was very brave.
Moreover, how could the person who could play that horror song be scared by him?
"My courage is as small as a bean!" Xiao Cunyu made a gesture, "Just look at me and you'll know. I'm afraid of death by nature. When you suddenly appeared, I thought you were a monster!"
