I don't know how thick the dead leaves around are piled up, and they are soft when stepped on.

Xie Lang finally came to the front of the wooden building. This wooden building did not make Xie Lang feel eerie. The lighting of the wooden building was good. The sunlight could just shine in through the woods, but the light was not very strong.Although the stairs inside are a bit old, they are not decayed or mossy. It seems that the wooden building is quite airy and dry.

But the weird feeling in my heart didn't disappear, and it became more and more intense.

"Hey, is anyone there?" Xie Lang asked loudly from the stairs, just wanting to make sure if there was anyone inside.

Of course no one answered, only the occasional chirping of autumn insects came from inside.

Xie Lang walked up the stairs.

"Student, don't go there!" A voice shouted loudly from Xie Lang.

Although Xie Lang was curious, but now that he was seen by someone, he was embarrassed to go in again, and turned to look at the person who called him.

It was a boy with black glasses. He was thin and somewhat malnourished, but he looked like a high-achieving student with good homework. He was still holding a book in his hand at the moment.

Xie Lang pretended not to know and asked: "Student, were you calling me just now?"

"Yes, didn't you see the warning sign next to it!" The man with glasses said to Xie Lang, pointing to the warning sign next to the wooden building.

Xie Lang said with some embarrassment: "Thank you for reminding me, I didn't notice it just now. By the way, my name is Xie Lang, a freshman in the Department of Computer Science, how about you?"

"Qin Zhaojian, from the Department of History." The boy replied, and after the two exchanged a few words, Qin Zhaojian said to Xie Lang seriously, "Actually, this wooden building is not a dangerous building, but... ...but a haunted building."

"Ghost building, no way?" Xie Lang smiled. It seems that many schools have legends about ghost buildings and ghost toilets, and they will be widely circulated among students, but such legends are basically fabricated from.

Seeing the suspicious look on Xie Lang's face, Qin Zhaojian said seriously: "I used to play in this school when I was a child, and some things about the ghost building have always been circulated among the students. Why should I lie to you? The reason why the school said it was It’s a dangerous building, I just don’t want students to get close to this wooden building, so as to avoid any accidents.”

Qin Zhaojian spoke so seriously that Xie Lang couldn't doubt anymore, and said: "Then thank you for reminding me just now. Oh, by the way, I have to go back to the dormitory, see you next time."

Although Xie Lang's curiosity about this wooden building is still there, since Qin Zhaojian is here at this moment, of course he has no way to go to the wooden building to investigate, so he has to withdraw and go back to the dormitory. After all, he will be in school for a long time I am not afraid that there will be no chance.

Coming out of Luo Xinglin, Xie Lang wandered around the school again. After all, he had to get familiar with the school environment first. Xie Lang returned to the dormitory around eleven o'clock.

Because of the hot weather, after returning to the dormitory, Xie Lang took a refreshing cold shower.

After coming out of the bathroom, Xie Lang asked Jiang Shuai and Fatty: "Hey, didn't you two say that you will go to the drama club member selection in the afternoon? Why haven't you gone yet?"

In fact, Fatty and Jiang Shuai don't have any acting skills, and they joined the drama club just to find beauty.

"No need to go, all the staff in our dormitory will have to clean up the stinky gutter behind the teacher's apartment later. It can't be done without a day or two." The fat man said angrily.

Jiang Shuai's face was also very ugly, it seemed that this matter should be true.

"Who said that?" Xie Lang asked while wiping the water from his hair with a towel.

"I said it!" A strange northeast accent said loudly and arrogantly.

"Which one are you?" Xie Lang asked casually.

"Hmph, I'm the big monitor of the Computer Department—Zhong Guotao!" The other party sneered at Xie Lang, as if he felt that Xie Lang, a bumpkin, was deliberately provoking the authority of his monitor.

Fatty heard that Zhong Guotao's tone was wrong, and gave Xie Lang a wink, telling Xie Lang to stop talking.

Xie Lang looked at this Zhong Guotao, who was only 1.6 meters tall, slightly fat, wearing a pair of black myopia glasses, although he was not tall, but his eyes were very arrogant.Generally speaking, Northeast people are very strong, but this Zhong Guotao is an outlier.When he looked at Xie Lang and Fatty, it was like looking at his servant. In short, this person's appearance and eyes were very uncomfortable.

Xie Lang originally wanted to refute a few words, but seeing the fat man's eyes, he held back his words.

Seeing Xie Lang's silence, Zhong Guotao seemed even more proud. He put on the prestige of the big squad leader, and began to lecture the four of Xie Lang, "Listen up, four of you, the task of cleaning up the stinky gutter is arranged by the department. Yes, you must do well. Otherwise, all members of your dormitory will not have to participate in any outstanding selections this semester, is it clear? I think you should be very clear."

After finishing speaking, Zhong Guotao swaggered out of bedroom 403 where Xie Lang was.It was only then that Xie Lang noticed that there was a thin and thin person next to Zhong Guotao pulling the door for him. Compared with Zhong Guotao, that person was actually not too thin, but he seemed unnoticed.

"Who were those two just now?" Xie Lang asked.

"Birdman!" The fat man cursed, and then said, "Zhong Guotao is the head monitor of our department, and he was appointed by the department's honesty. The kid next to him is his lackey, named Liu Xiaotong."

"Designed by the teacher? Doesn't the monitor need to be democratically elected?" Xie asked.

"In Southern University, don't talk about democracy." The fat man said angrily, "Get ready to start work after lunch, damn it, I don't have any appetite for digging the gutter later."

"Actually, you also blame Liu Xiaotong. I heard from people in their dormitory that Liu Xiaotong is actually the most pitiful." Lin Qiang suddenly sighed at this moment.

"Speak nonsense quickly." Jiang Shuai was also a little annoyed, because he hadn't done such things as dredging the stinky gutter since he was born.

"I heard people say that Liu Xiaotong was actually forced by Zhong Guotao." Lin Qiang said gossipingly, "I heard that their family is very poor, but you can know it by looking at the clothes he wears. In order to reduce the burden on the family, Liu Xiaotong , so he applied for a work-study program and planned to work in the school cafeteria, earning [-] yuan a month for living expenses. However, Zhong Guotao knew about this, and he told Liu Xiaotong clearly that as long as he recommends, Liu Xiaotong can apply for this place. It’s a temporary job, but Liu Xiaotong has to do something for him.”

"So, this Zhong Guotao is not useless, at least he knows how to help the students in the same dormitory to solve the difficulties." Xie Lang heard Zhong Guotao helping the poor students, and his aversion to him suddenly became much less. After all, no one is perfect, as long as there is It's not bad to be on the bright side.

"He was taking advantage of the fire, hum." Lin Qiang sneered, "Do you know what Zhong Guotao asked Liu Xiaotong to do? He asked Liu Xiaotong to wash all his clothes, including his smelly socks. I heard that Zhong Guotao's feet smell very bad. Every time he finishes playing football, their dormitory is filled with a stench. Liu Xiaotong, what a pity."

"Damn it, people can't be so shameless!" Jiang Shuai cursed loudly, and he, who was always more graceful, also started to curse.

Xie Lang felt as if he had arrived on Mars, and he said angrily: "Unexpectedly, there are such sluts in the world."

"That Zhong Guotao is not a good guy, but the three of you should pay attention." Fatty looked a little calm at this time, and reminded the three of them: "That Zhong Guotao has a background, and he is also a person who will take revenge. I heard that his old uncle Yu Shaonan is the director of our school's academic department, and the academic department has the power to kill students, so this talent is so arrogant, which is why he is the head monitor of our department, and why our dormitory 403 has to clean up the stinky ditch reason."

"Dogs rely on others!" Xie Lang, Lin Qiang, and Jiang Shuai cursed in unison.

However, the four of them had no choice but to rush to the teacher's apartment obediently after lunch.

The teacher's apartment is near the south gate of the school, hidden in the dense woods, the scenery and air are very good, and behind the apartment is the only hillside of Southern University. Although it is only 60 meters high, it stands on the top of the hillside. From above, you can overlook the whole school. No wonder many old teachers in the school spend their twilight years here.

If you came to enjoy the scenery, the hillsides, woods, and fallen leaves are all beautiful, but the four of Xie Lang came to clean up the stinky ditch, so the situation is completely different.

"Wow, my God, is this a stinky ditch? It's just a stinky river!" Just the smell was enough to make Jiang Shuai nauseous.

This is a ditch about one meter wide and half a meter deep, almost more than 30 meters long. Because of the blockage caused by the mud falling from the hillside and the fallen leaves in the woods, the smelly water and garbage cannot be discharged, and there is already a stream of water. It smelled rotten.

"Damn it, I'm quitting!" the fat man threw the hoe in his hand on the ground and said angrily.

Jiang Shuai's face became even more ugly. He has never been abused like this since he was a child, and he said to the fat man, "You might as well find a few migrant workers to clean it up, and give them a little money each. I don't want to Because this ditch ruined my Nikes."

Among the four, only Xie Lang and Lin Qiang remained unchanged.
