I saw that the library that had been burned to the point of being charred before slowly collapsed in front of us, and huge smoke rose up, which soon spread and swallowed up all of it.

Qinghan and I stood there, and there was no reaction for a while.

The building really collapsed!

There were also some students running there, but they didn't have time to get close to the smoke and dust, so they could only reach out and block them. We felt a strong wind, blowing our hair and clothes flying.

I don’t know how long it took, the wind stopped and the smoke and dust slowly fell.

There are only a pile of ruins left in the entire library.

We stood there and watched for a long time. Although we knew that it would be difficult for the library to persist after being burned by such a fire, and it was natural to demolish it, I was not prepared in my heart. I watched the pavilion collapse. After a long time, I was still a little overwhelmed.

Qinghan reached out and held my hand, and whispered: "It's okay."

I turned my head to look at him, and he said softly: "Don't be too sad."

“…”

I just came to my senses, and it turned out that I was still feeling a little uncomfortable.

This is the pavilion built by my mother. To me, it is like part of the memory of her. The pavilion collapsed and the things she left behind were missing again.

I don't know what traces I can find belong to her.

After a while of silence, I said hoarsely: "I just didn't expect it to end like this."

“…”

"Actually, I still want to see the thing on the roof."

Qinghan sighed and said, "Actually, it is not easy to burn the building to the point where we are all out safely, and it is not easy to support them to move out all the ancient books. Don't be discouraged first, go and take a look."

"Um."

He took me over, and there was already crowded with people around it, and everyone's faces were filled with regret and loss, especially the students of Xishan Academy. This library was like a part of their body to them, and disappeared in front of them, and they couldn't accept it emotionally. I even saw that "nerd" Qiao Lin's eyes turned red, and there were brothers next to him immediately to comfort him.

And the students from other academies sighed.

As soon as we walked over, Xiang Wenliang, Lu Sheng and the others saw me, hurried forward, and asked Qinghan: "Why did the building suddenly collapse? Is there anyone inside?"

Xiang Wenliang shook his head quickly and said, "No. Actually, when I moved the books from inside this morning, I felt that the attic could not hold on anymore, so everyone stepped up their time and moved all the books out before the collapse. Just now, when everyone evacuated, the building collapsed."

"……oh."

This pavilion seemed to have life, and in one last breath supported them to move away all the ancient books and then leave.

I slowly walked forward. The pavilion had just collapsed, and there was still a lot of smoke and dust in the air. I saw a figure standing there blankly, as if I had lost my reaction.

I shouted softly: "Yusheng."

Xiao Yusheng slowly turned his head, and for the first time there was a dull and dazed look in his eyes. He turned around and looked at the ruins in front of him, and then said softly: "I didn't expect it would be like this."

“…”

"This library has accompanied all of us for the best time, and I didn't expect it to be like this."

I walked over and reached out to support his shoulders, and deeply felt his current mood. It was the same as me. Although my mother protected the ancient books inside, this pavilion could not be protected by her. This regret was something that everyone could not bear for a while.

I could only comfort him emptyly: "All books are there, and people are fine, just be fine."

“…”

He sighed and nodded softly.

Then, he turned around and said to the students around him, "Everyone will go back first. Everyone has been frightened these two days and must be exhausted today. Let's not worry about this place for now. I will ask my senior brother tomorrow before dealing with the matter of the library."

The people around him didn't say anything, and everyone left silently.

In the sunset, everyone's back looks so lonely.

I turned around and looked at the desolate ruins. It seemed that there was a place in my heart that was empty and had no support. Xiao Yusheng and I stood there without moving, only Qinghan walked forward slowly and stepped into the ruins.

The library was too tall, and the falling ruins were very large, with broken wood crossing each other. Because the pavilion had just collapsed and the ruins were not stable, Qinghan slowly walked upwards. Suddenly, he heard a click under his feet, as if he had broken a piece of wood, and a large area around him collapsed downwards, and he almost fell down.

"Senior brother!"

Xiao Yusheng rushed up and held him with quick eyes and hands: "Be careful!"

I also hurriedly said, "Qinghan, don't mess around inside, it's very dangerous."

Qinghan ignored us, but grabbed Xiao Yusheng's arm and continued walking in. Xiao Yusheng had no choice but to support him. The two of them were one step deep and one step shallow, carefully tentatively the broken wood under their feet. I saw that he seemed to be patrolling something in this ruin, so I asked, "Qinghan, are you looking for?"

He suddenly stopped and said, "Come on!"

He is really looking for something.

I also hurried forward. Xiao Yusheng was worried about my safety, so he could only turn around and help me walk in. When we walked to the height of a ruin, we saw Qinghan looking at the large black thing in front of me with a burning look. I looked closely and couldn't help but breathe.

I know that the construction of this attic uses some iron nails. Because the attic is very high and is built on the mountain, it is not easy to resist the mountain wind. The pure wooden structure is not easy to do. Just as I walked into this ruin, I could see the cold and shining nails exposed on the wooden boards, which made people particularly scared.

However, in the ruins in front of us, many iron blocks appeared besides the iron nails!

These iron plates were built into different shapes. I don’t know what special treatment it was. They were extremely dark. Moreover, the entire building collapsed. Under such strong distortion and heavy blow, these things had no trace of depression and deformation at all. The surface looked particularly smooth, and some were even inlaid together in precision.

I stared at everything in front of me in a daze, and couldn't react: "This is-"
