Chapter 2 The Classic of Mountains and Seas
Under the brute force of the little brat, Li Mang had to follow him to Old Man Cao's yard. Sure enough, he found a raging fire inside, and the flame was soaring high.
The Yanhuang compound is naturally equipped with excellent fire protection facilities. After all, there are a group of abnormal non-humans living here, ready for trouble. At this time, someone was already extinguishing the fire with a water gun, but there were too many books in Old Man Cao's yard, and the weather had been dry for several months, so it was easy to extinguish it when it was burned.
"Where is Old Man Cao!" Yang Fan, the male boss of glasses, asked anxiously.
"He just went out."
"...The one who can spray water in the yard!" The man in glasses caught him anxiously. The one who can spray water in his mouth refers to a normal water-based supernatural person.
"He's going to carry out the mission!"
"Damn!" The gentle and gentle Yang Fan couldn't help but swear, and could only run to other yards to pick up the water pipes, but his heart was chill.
It’s a little bit to burn the house, and their Yanhuang organization never lacks money, so it’s just built it again. But if the old man Cao’s ancient books are burned out, the old man Cao will definitely get angry when he comes back. The already uneasy yard will probably have a big fight again, and it’s impossible to estimate any major disaster.
However, Cao Cao arrived, and from somewhere, Old Man Cao, who had caught fire at home, rushed back in a hurry. Seeing the flames in the yard, his eyes were filled with blood. He asked in a rumble and roaring angry voice: "Which heaven can burn my yard!!!"
The little brat's neck instinctively shrank, and it was behind Li Mang.
"Little brat!" Old man Cao felt keenly, and his red eyes swept over. Two fire dragons appeared above his head. He made a buzzing sound, and then rushed towards Li Mang.
Li Mang's face was so scared that he didn't dare to think about anything. He pulled his feet and ran to the side. What a joke, he had seen this old man Cao's fire-type superpower. It was not ordinary, but quite powerful. Now he was in an angry state. The attack he issued would definitely blow him up so hard that he could leave his entire body.
"Bang!!!"
Li Mang could dodge, so the little kid was naturally no problem. He followed Wu Rui and dodged, causing the fire dragon to fall into the ground. It turned out to be like a missile, shattering a large area of floor, and its power was obvious. This made Li Mang feel frightened, and then he was shocked and secretly called me, "Good."
However, the little kid who was killed this day did not hide in so many directions. He was so stupid that he followed Li Mang to hide in a place. This was undoubtedly a rhythm of dying.
"Little brat, die for me!" Sure enough, the old man Cao, who was in anger, didn't care about Li Mang next to the little brat. Several fire dragons then broke through the air, and this time it was even more powerful and faster.
The brainless little brat had never thought about Li Mang's life or death, so he pulled his feet away and ran away. When Li Mang reacted, it was still too late. He had just taken two steps when an explosion came from behind him, his ears were shaking, and a huge force knocked him out.
What's worse is that Li Mang's body fell into the fire in the yard in front...
"Save me!!!"
"Bang..."
Li Mang called for help before falling into the fire, and then he felt the heat wrapped around his whole body. As for how he screamed, he could not remember it at all. In short, it was very miserable, but at this time, no one would say he was embarrassed.
Li Mang in the raging fire struggled instinctively, dancing like an ant on a hot pan, but there were books on fire on all sides, like being in the red charcoal of fire. The pain of the sea of fire almost killed him, but he could not struggle out, and the screaming could only get weaker and weaker.
Old Man Cao knows fire-based superpowers. If he can take action in time, he will definitely save Li Mang from the sea of fire, but you should never expect someone with abnormal mental health. Old Man Cao is just thinking about burning the little kid to death now, but how can he know Li Mang's life or death?
"Hurry! Squirt water in this direction, and you must rescue Li Mang!" At the critical moment, his boss Yang Fan was reliable and hurriedly directed someone to save Li Mang.
But even so, the fire in Li Mang's position still took nearly two minutes to be completely extinguished. The fire was burned for two minutes, which was enough to make ordinary people fatal. In fact, Li Mang had no sound at all.
An old man watching the fun next to him suddenly turned awe-inspiring, and he recited loudly: "Bow and mourn for our heroic sacrifice!"
After saying that, he bowed.
The group of "patients" behind also bowed.
Then bow twice.
The last three bows...
"Why bow? Go in and save people quickly!" The male boss in glasses was almost angry by this scene, but he also understood that he could not argue with these people who were not very normal in mind. He quickly put down the water gun that was still spraying water and hurried into the yard. Finally, he found Li Mang who had almost lost his breath in a pile of wet black and gray.
...
Under the treatment of the ghost doctor, Li Mang saved his life, but his body was burned and he lay for a full week before he could recover from his awakening.
But what is secretly amazing is that, in addition to the burning of his hair again, Li Mang's body was only slightly burned, and there was no serious burn. Even the ghost doctor was amazed and could not tell the reason.
However, there are indeed not many normal people in this mental illness concentration camp, and no one overly investigated the reason for Li Mang's survival, just to think that this child is lucky enough.
In the room in his yard, Li Mang, whose head was covered with white cloth, looked confused. Others thought he had escaped because he was lucky. Only he knew that this was not the case.
When he fell into the sea of fire that day, Li Mang, who was struggling in a coma, suddenly grabbed a piece of cold thing. His whole body seemed to be protected by ice, so the blazing fire did not cause too much damage to him. This is actually the main reason why he survived the disaster.
Unfortunately, he was already confused afterwards and didn't know what happened next. He carefully asked the man with glasses, but the other party said that when he found him, there was nothing on his hands, and there was only black and gray left in Old Man Cao's yard, nothing else.
"It's strange. The feeling I felt at that time is still vivid in my heart. It's not the hallucination caused by inhaling smoke. The cold thing is not thick or smooth, but it has a very texture. According to the feel, it should be an ancient book. Has it been burned?" Li Mang couldn't help but feel a pity.
This should be a magical book.
If it were in the past, Li Mang would definitely feel ridiculous about his thoughts, but since he joined Yanhuang, he has seen many bizarre things and knows that there are indeed many things that cannot be explained in the world.
Li Mang, who was regretting, suddenly saw something and was stunned.
It turned out that as soon as his voice fell, an item appeared in his heart, which was a simple book.
Li Mang instinctively followed with his hands, and a familiar feeling suddenly spread throughout his body, and the cold feeling was exactly the same as in the sea of fire.
"Haha! Hahaha!" Li Mang couldn't help laughing wildly. He was so excited. This is a rhythm of success that he would have to survive the disaster!
"...What a poor child. He was not tortured by these abnormal humans. He was actually burned into a psychopath by a sudden fire!"
When the neighbors heard the laughter coming from Li Mang's yard, they couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.
Li Mang naturally didn't know what others thought. Now he only thought that he had encountered some amazing opportunities. It took him a long time to suppress the excitement in his heart. He hurriedly spread the ancient books on the bed and calmly looked at them.
The material is strange, it seems not paper, but it looks more like animal skin, but Li Mang couldn't recognize what kind of animal leather it was made of.
The cover is a landscape painting of ink painting, with characters and animals, to be precise, a flying fairy god, and an ancient divine beast. This is a divine beast with a flying dragon body and nine snake heads. The blood plate is wide open, looking fierce. Although it is just a painting of ink painting, Li Mang felt the majestic atmosphere on it and dared not look at it.
"It's not simple!" Li Mang not only wasn't afraid of this, but was more expecting it. After more than half a year of hardship, his heart was already very strong. Naturally, he wouldn't feel afraid just because he encountered a supernatural thing, but he was curious and expectant.
There are three words written crookedly above the cover of the ancient book, without any other words.
"Shan Hai Jing"
It is an ancient character, but Li Mang once practiced ancient Chinese literature. After identification, he quickly recognized the identity of these three characters. It is the famous ancient book "Shan Hai Jing".
The founding of "Shan Hai Jing" can be traced back to the pre-Qin period. It is a masterpiece of ancient mythology, which also contains information from all aspects of geography, properties, witchcraft, religion, ancient history, medicine, folk customs, and ancient society. It is based on the pictures of strange beasts, which can be said to be the source of Chinese mythology and the origin of all mythological stories in later generations.
However, because of its strange and strange description, it is often denounced as absurd and unconventional. Before entering Yanhuang, Li Mang, who firmly believed in science, only regarded it as a bizarre strange book, but since joining the Yanhuang organization, his concept has quietly changed. His current experience can be more proved that this book "Shan Hai Jing" is not simple.
In addition, although Shanhai Jing is recognized as a "pre-Qin masterpiece", its identity and origin are still a unsolved case that has not been resolved for thousands of years. According to its records, some people say that the author may have been a rare written civilization and the source of mythology before the pre-Qin period.
