Chapter 187 Lin Lan and the Bet

'Lin Lan? '

This time, Chu Qiguang finally saw the other person's appearance clearly in the dream.

But looking at Lin Lan with long black hair and a pair of water blue eyes, Chu Qiguang was a little surprised.

'How could it be her?What does she want to do? '

Lin Lan in front of her was not as shy and weak as Chu Qiguang imagined, but instead had a seductive expression on her face, looking at 'myself' with great interest.

'No, who the hell is she looking at? '

Just when Chu Qiguang wanted to figure out what Lin Lan was doing in front of him, the sensor in his dream had been disconnected again.

He opened his eyes, and he had already returned to the Jushi courtyard.

'Lin Lan... There are secrets about this woman that I don't know about. '

’ In the end, I couldn’t figure out who she was looking at?Will it be the same as the last time in the dormitory, also looking at Jiang Longyu? '

'Unfortunately, I don't know where that room is. '

Thinking back to the dormitory several times before, it seemed that none of the scenes in the dream happened.

Chu Qiguang still plans to go to the big library to find Lin Lan this time, to see if the other party is in the big library at the moment.

All the way through the road full of stone statues, he came to the stone door of the big library and knocked.

This time when Chu Qiguang was picked up by the gatekeeper, he took the initiative to ask, "Is Lin Lan there? I'm here to look for her."

The gatekeeper stopped suddenly, and said in a blunt tone, "Boy, don't think that I don't know what you're up to. You've been courting Lin Lan all day, and you're thinking about the books on the second floor, right?"

Chu Qiguang smiled lightly and said, "Master, you misunderstood me. I really want to read the books on the second floor, but Lin Lan and I can become good friends only because we hit it off."

The gatekeeper snorted coldly: "Slick tone."

Chu Qiguang really hoped that the janitor would smash out a pile of books at once, and then pointing at him and shouting: "Here are a thousand books on the second floor. After you take them, don't see Lin Lan again."

It's a pity that the other party didn't say such a thing at all, but just sighed: "The second floor of the big library... the books there are recorded in the depths of history... dark and twisted secrets, if not for their inestimable value, It has been destroyed long ago."

"You are as curious about history as I was when I was young, but this does not mean that you should explore those mysteries beyond human imagination and those crazy and fascinating abysses to satisfy your curiosity."

Chu Qiguang looked at the slightly trembling gatekeeper, and seemed to hear a kind of fear and bewilderment from the other's tone.

That is the emotion that humans instinctively arouse when they see the unknown, the existence that goes beyond common sense and goes against common sense.

The gatekeeper finally warned: "From ancient times to the present, human beings have never stopped studying the past, but in the end it often only leads to one disaster after another.

Our greatest luck may be that no one ever knows all the secrets. "

Chu Qiguang tentatively asked, "Have you read the books on the second floor?"

After seeing that the other party didn't speak, Chu Qiguang continued: "Since you saw that nothing happened, why don't you let me try it too? As a member of the Zhenma Division, I will come into contact with these things sooner or later."

"If it doesn't work, you can first take the one you think is the most harmless and let me have a look."

Speaking of this, Chu Qiguang said to himself: "And...I'm afraid I'm already... the best talent among the people recruited by Zhenma over the years? If I can't even watch it, who else can watch it? Is there a book on the second floor?"

Hearing these words, the gatekeeper fell silent, as if he really thought about it.

But after a long while, he still shook his head: "No, you can go to the second floor of the big library after going up the mountain for a month. There has never been such a case in history. You should practice for a few more years before you talk about it."

Then he sneered: "Besides, when it comes to the best, I'm afraid it's Jiang Longyu, the Eighth General of Xinghan, not you."

Hearing what the janitor said, Chu Qiguang immediately said: "Then what if I beat Jiang Longyu this time?"

Chu Qiguang's situation... The gatekeeper thought he knew a lot about it, and he was proficient in boxing and horizontal kung fu.

Only when this kind of martial arts reaches the fifth level, as the practitioner's physical strength, body and skills continue to deepen, can it gradually bridge the gap with various weapons and martial arts.

Although most of the fighters in the third and fourth realms are concentrating on boxing, trying to improve their martial arts realm.

But there are also some geniuses like Chu Qiguang and Jiang Longyu, who can be distracted from practicing kung fu and weapons.

Such a genius can often have an advantage when fighting against warriors of the same level.

'But at the stage of the third realm, Chu Qiguang's cross-training kung fu was almost completely defeated by Jiang Longyu.It was impossible for him to defeat Jiang Longyu who was holding a knife no matter what. '

Just when the janitor was thinking this way, Chu Qiguang seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and said with a smile: "You think I can't beat Jiang Longyu? If that's the case, do you dare to make a bet with me?"

The gatekeeper asked unexpectedly, "Bet?"

"That's right." Chu Qiguang's voice seemed to be full of bewitching power at this moment, and he looked at the gatekeeper and said slowly: "If I beat Jiang Longyu this time, then you can show me the book on the second floor. If I lose Give it to Jiang Longyu, then I will never bother you and Lin Lan again."

Hearing this, the gatekeeper's eyes moved slightly, and he thought, "Just use Jiang Longyu as a shield to make him give up completely, and save Lin Lan from being involved again." '

Thinking of this, he said, "If you can beat Jiang Longyu, I will consider it. But if you lose, give up completely and stop bothering Lin Lan."

Chu Qiguang's eyes brightened: "That's for sure."

Then the janitor brought Chu Qiguang to a familiar desk, left after saying a word.

"Lin Lan is still resting, I'll call him, you wait here and don't run around."

Chu Qiguang sat at the desk, looking in the direction of the second floor, but he could only see darkness.

The ring of ignorance on his chest seemed to be burning with a purple flame, and the constant scalding reminded Chu Qiguang of his desire for the knowledge upstairs.

'Soon, soon... Maybe I can find the clue to the secret script of the Purple Mansion that I want to find. '

While waiting for Lin Lan, Chu Qiguang kept thinking of ways to defeat Jiang Longyu one after another in his mind.

'If you fight head-on with the strength of the third level, even if you win, you may be injured. '

'My body is so precious, how can I take such a risk? '

'I have to think of a different way to win over Jiang Longyu more safely. '

'But it can't be too low, lest the coaches be dissatisfied with me, and the janitor may not admit it. '

Just when Chu Qiguang ruled out such insidious methods as stealing knives, drugging, and throwing feces, Lin Lan did not arrive.

Chu Qiguang thought to himself: "I haven't been here for so long, isn't Lin Lan really in the big library?" '

It took nearly an incense stick of time before Lin Lan came late, and said with a sleepy face, "Brother Chu?"

Chu Qiguang asked: "You have been sleeping just now?"

Lin Lan nodded: "Yeah, it was very late yesterday when I cleaned up the library, and I was catching up on sleep. Why did you come to the big library? Isn't it Xiaobian today?"

Chu Qiguang smiled calmly: "It's nothing, I'm just a little nervous and want to chat with you."
