"What are you doing? Why is this house so moldy?"

"Hiss." Christina's beard was raised and she said bitterly: "Zhou Bai! This house looks like something is wrong, so let's not go in!!"

Zhou Bai did not speak, but raised his legs and continued walking in, saying in his mind as he walked: "What are you afraid of? Why do we two have a total of more than 300 Yuanshen value. With my defense and your attack power, if you encounter distortions like the old man and Sakurako, you can win at will."

Zhou Bai stepped on the ground with one foot, and a creaking sound rang out. He looked down and found that the floors in the building were all wooden floors, and because of mold and tide reflux, the floors had been raised.

If you step on it casually, you will make a creaking sound, spreading far into the darkness.

Zhou Bai was walking while checking the situation in the dormitory building with a strange noise.

The situation in this building is different from the previous dormitory.

Zhou Bai controlled the crystal stone to float into the room, and he could see the wooden bed, tables, chairs and even wardrobe in the dormitory room, but the interior was empty and there was no one living there. Moreover, they were all severely moldy, with black mold spots everywhere.

Tick.

Zhou Bai looked up and found that water was seeping in the roof. Drops of water gathered on the roof, and finally either dripped or slowly flowed down the edge of the wall.

"How come there is so much water?" Zhou Bai frowned. Donghua Road School is located 1,500 meters above Donghua City. The sky and ground are all artificial buildings. Theoretically, it will not rain almost all year round.

So where does this water come from?

Zhou Bai walked up one by one, and the light of the crystal shone through the rooms, but no other abnormalities were found. Looking at Christina, who was curled up in a ball with her eyes closed in her head, she said helplessly: "Okay, except for the heavy humidity, this building has no problem at all. You are afraid of it."

Christina: "It's too dark here!"

Zhou Bai: "You are still a cat, you are still afraid of the dark."

While walking back along the stairs, Zhou Bai joked with Christina in his mind. Seeing the silly cat trembling with fear, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

After leaving Building 5 all the way, Zhou Bai then entered Building 4.

Building No. 4 looks outside, it is covered with densely packed ivy. Zhou Bai stepped in and found that even some of the walls had cracked, exposing branches and leaves.

Zhou Bai looked towards the first room he passed by and found that the door was closed.

He tried to push the door, and he heard a slam, and the entire door was pushed to the ground by him.

The dense black shadows in the room were exposed, and they stretched towards Zhou Bai like thousands of palms.

Zhou Bai was also slightly startled when he saw this scene, and the power of the soul instantly covered his body.

But the next moment, he gave a breath, and what seemed to be thousands of palms in front of him was not the real palm, but the countless branches and leaves growing from the cracks in the wall. They filled the entire room. If the door had not been closed, they might have grown out long ago.

"This is too long, right?"

Zhou Bai casually scanned it, but didn't find anything, so he walked to the next room.

He found that Building 4 was different from Building 5, which was previously stormy. The dormitory of Building 5 was kept with homes, and most of them had not been emptied.

Building No. 4 is not only kept for home, but Zhou Bai found that there are also many things such as tattered bed sheets, used clothes, and even some tattered clothes hangers and cups.

It feels like throwing a lot of garbage while moving.

However, this situation is even better for Zhou Bai, at least there is hope of finding clues.

So he walked into a dormitory, activated the power of his soul, opened various drawers, opened his clothes, and looked for anything valuable.

After searching for a few floors like this, Zhou Bai finally found a booklet in the drawer of a dormitory.

Then I saw the cover of the booklet saying:

It's too late, they're going to chase after you.

I hid everything in the Tao Te Ching, and as long as I find him, you will get the answer.

Don't hate me, kid.

Zhou Bai's eyes condensed, and then he turned down. It turned out to be the content of the Tao Te Ching. From Chapter 1 to Chapter 40, it was completely complete, and Zhou Bai looked shocked.

However, he scanned it casually and did not look closely, so Christina in his mind could not see the specific content of the Tao Te Ching clearly.

"How could this happen? Why is there a Tao Te Ching here? Who is the person who wrote the message? Why do other people seem to have no idea what the Tao Te Ching looks like?"

Zhou Bai let out a long breath and continued to turn back. He found that there was a large piece of blank space behind him. Suddenly a page fell down. Zhou Bai's eyes lit up and he saw that it said:

16: To achieve the extreme of emptiness, keep quiet and tranquility. All things are created together, and I can observe the restoration. All things return to their roots...

"Is it Chapter 16 Tao Te Ching?" Zhou Bai was shocked. Looking at the pages in his hand, his soul became restless again, and there seemed to be a flash of light and darkness in front of him.

Zhou Bai quickly closed the pages of the book, and the turbulent feeling slowly faded away.

"Tao... virtue... sutra..."

Zhou Bai continued to search for the No. 4 dormitory building and soon found more pages of the book. Basically, each page was a chapter of Tao Te Ching, and he found a total of seven pages.

Feeling that the so-called Tao Te Ching seemed to be hidden in some secret, Zhou Bai went downstairs and left Building 4 and ran towards Building 3.

Christina was already curious about what was happening in front of her: "What is the Tao Te Ching? Is this thing in this building for so long, hasn't the school discovered it?"

"I don't know." Zhou Bai: "I'll find out first."

Stepping into Building 3, a burnt smell poured into Zhou Bai's nose. He opened a room casually, was slightly stunned, and then walked towards the next room, and found that every room in Building 3 was covered with bright red talisman paper.

The bright red characters, like written in blood, seem to be able to see an inexplicable blush.

Zhou Bai went up to check and found that this talisman did not seem to contain any extraordinary power, it was just an ordinary talisman paper.

Suddenly, Zhou Bai's eyes narrowed, he uncovered the talisman paper on the wall, and found something seemed to be behind him. As he thought, the power of his soul swept towards the entire wall. As the talisman paper was unveiled, a page of the book slowly fell down from the wall.

1: The Tao can be told, it is extraordinary. The name can be called, it is extraordinary. The beginning of the nameless world, and the mother of all things...

Seeing that not only wrote the sentence he wrote on the entrance exam, but also filled the entire first chapter. Before Zhou Bai's soul was restless, he put the pages into his arms.

Christina said in surprise: "Isn't this what you wrote in the entrance examination? It turns out that you copied this Tao Te Ching!"

Just then, a light clatter sounded outside the corridor, spreading from a distance in the dark abandoned building. Christina exclaimed: "Someone!!"
