Reboot: Immortality Cultivation Era - Chapter 95
Chapter 95 Mysterious Room
Upon entering the library, Gao Ge is immersed in amazement.
When he saw the old man outside, he didn’t think much. When the old man said that the order, once given, will be strictly enforced, he instantly realized who the man was.
The Confucian scholar in the contemporary era, Lou Zhoutian!
Even in his previous life, Gao Ge only heard of his name and never saw him with his own eyes.
“Mr. Liu once told me that Mr. Lou was his teacher. I never expected that I could meet him here. How lucky I am! When I leave the library, it’ll be great if I can talk with him for a while.” Gao Ge thinks to himself.
In the library, there are very few students but teachers, who look at Gao Ge with curious eyes. It seems that he becomes an alien here.
“Gao Ge?” Gao Ge feels patted on the shoulder. He turns around only to see Meng Fang standing behind him.
“Mr. Meng, you are here too!” Gao Ge says smilingly.
Meng Fang nods his head, asking, “How come you are here? Isn’t this place not open to the students?”
Gao Ge waves the library card to him, saying with a grin, “Mr. Liu gave me his library card.”
Meng Fang takes a tumble, saying in a low voice, “Oh, I see. Your teacher is quite kind to you, who also trusts you. You know, even he has only two opportunities to enter the library every month. And teachers of Class Heaven can have more opportunities then.”
Gao Ge is taken aback. He didn’t know that before.
“This is your fortune as well as his.” Meng Fang says in a low voice, “Have you ever felt regretful?”
“Mr. Liu just asked me the same question. I said no.” Gao Ge says smilingly.
Meng Fang nods his head.
“By the way, Mr. Meng, how long can I stay in the library?”
“How long?” Meng Fang is a bit surprised, “What do you mean? How long do you plan to stay here?”
Gao Ge grins, “You just said that Mr. Liu could only come in here for two times per month. Is there any restriction on the duration here?”
Meng Fang can’t help bursting into laughter, which arouses the attention from others at present. After all, this is the library. If he were not the teacher of Class Heaven, he might be scolded by some people at the moment.
Meng Fang senses the unamiable look around him so he hastens to stop laughing, shaking his head and saying, “Not for that. It’s kind of a loophole. You may use that.”
“Does the loophole really exist?” Gao Ge is shocked.
Meng Fang says with a straight face, “Most of the people who can enter the library are teachers. Do you think they are as shameless as you?”
Gao Ge can’t help sighing.
It turns out that being shameless comes with so many benefits.
Hence, if you are bashful, you get nothing; if you are shameless, you get everything.
“Besides, the books in the library can be taken out, but you must return it within one day.” Meng Fang says, “You must keep it in mind.”
Gao Ge nods his head, watching Meng Fang leave.
When Gao Ge turns around to look at the well-organized bookshelf, he takes a deep breath. It seems that he can smell the aroma of books.
“I shall not think about that. The most important thing at present is to find the martial arts suitable for me. Otherwise, it’ll be a waste to come in here.” After saying that, Gao Ge buries himself into the books quickly to search.
After staying in the library for about two hours, Gao Ge hasn’t read one single book.
“No, no!”
At the moment, he hears someone talking behind him.
“What do you mean by no? There are so many books about martial arts. Isn’t there any one of them worth reading for you?”
Gao Ge is taken aback. There are many capable masters in the Cultivation Academy, every one of whom can come to his back without being noticed by him.
Luckily, these people are not his enemies. Otherwise, he may be dead now.
“Hello, Mr. Lou.” Gao Ge greets him in an apprentice’s manner.
Lou Zhoutian feels surprised, “You know me?”
“I didn’t recognize you just now but I did afterwards.” Gao Ge says with a bitter smile.
“Interesting. Yet, that’s not important. Tell me first. How come you said no to the books?” Lou Zhoutian frowns and asks.
“These martial arts are too low-level.” Gao Ge shakes his head and says, “I want to find some Heaven-level martial arts.”
Lou Zhoutian puts on an extremely sulky expression, reaching out his hand to knock on Gao Ge’s head, “Boy, you are so light-minded! You know what, the Heaven-level martial arts methods are also collected here, but do you think you can understand them? You must cultivate step by step. It’s the simplest principle. Don’t you know that?”
Feeling a bit awkward, Gao Ge stands there at a loss.
“Although I focus on Confucianism, I also know about the martial arts methods of the cultivators. What’s your major?” Lou Zhoutian sighs and asks.
When he talked with Gao Ge before, he thought this young man was talented indeed.
Otherwise, he would not directly praise Gao Ge in front of Liu Zhongyi. In his view, Gao Ge is only heading towards a wrong direction for now. As to young men, it is an inevitable thing and it will be okay if he is corrected. After all, Lou Zhoutian has a lot of time. To some extent, Gao Ge is kind of his student’s student, so it’s not against the rules.
Hearing what Lou Zhoutian asked, Gao Ge falls into silence.
Now Lou Zhoutian becomes at a loss.
“Is this question so hard to answer?”
Gao Ge says with a bitter smile, “I have learnt only one martial art, that is, Thunder Fist from the Xia Family. As to what I am majoring in, currently, it should be fistic arts?”
Lou Zhoutian is outraged by Gao Ge.
“Absurd! Completely absurd! Don’t you learn anything meaningful in the Cultivation Academy?”
Gao Ge doesn’t know whether to cry or to laugh, “It’s only a few days since I came to the Cultivation Academy.”
It seems that Lou Zhoutian has thought of something. He asks, “Did you pass the secret realm of Mount Duanlong?”
Gao Ge nods his head heavily. He didn’t know that Lou Zhoutian should know about that too.
“No wonder.” Lou Zhoutian strokes his beard and says seriously, “Follow me.”
After saying that, he turns around to walk forward.
Gao Ge doesn’t hesitate to catch up quickly.
Following Lou Zhoutian, Gao Ge goes up to the second floor of the library.
When they reach the second floor, it’s like that they enter a totally different world.
On the first floor, Gao Ge can hardly find a book about martial arts, let alone the book of advanced level.
Yet, on the second floor, there are basically books about various martial arts, swordsmanship methods and training methods, etc.
However, Lou Zhoutian still doesn’t stop. Gao Ge dare not stop to read the books but keep following Mr. Lou.
Their emergence arouses a lot of attention. Gao Ge hears many teachers whispering to each other about why Gao Ge is walking with Lou Zhoutian.
Their tones are full of envy and jealousy.
When Lou Zhoutian stops, Gao Ge finds that on the second floor of the library there is a detached room. And Lou Zhoutian takes out a key from nowhere to open the door.
“Come in.” Lou Zhoutian says in a soft voice.
On the second floor, more teachers walk towards here, who look so shocked.
Gao Ge feels a bit confused. What on earth is there…
…in this room?
