第一章节正文：
Annie peeked into
Jack’s room.
“Ready to go to
China?” she asked.
Jack took a deep
breath.
“Sure,” he
answered.
“Bring your
secret library card,” Annie said. “I have mine in my
pocket.”
“Yep,” said
Jack.
He opened his top
dresser drawer and took out a thin wooden card. The letters M L on
it shimmered in the light. Jack dropped the card into his backpack.
Then he threw in his notebook and a pencil.
“Let’s go,” said
Annie.
Jack pulled on
his pack and followed her.
What are we in
for today? he wondered.
“Bye, Mom!” said
Annie as they passed their mom in the kitchen.
“Where are you
going?” she asked.
“China!” said
Annie.
“Great,” said
their mom. She winked at them. “Have fun.”
Fun? thought
Jack. He was afraid that fun wasn’t quite the right
word.
“Just wish us
luck,” he said as he and Annie headed out the front
door.
“Good luck!”
their mother called.
“If only she knew
we aren’t pretending,” Jack whispered to Annie.
“Yeah,” said
Annie, grinning.
Outside, the sun
shone brightly. Birds sang. Crickets chirped. Jack and Annie walked
up their street toward the Frog Creek woods.
“I wonder if the
weather will be this nice in China,” Annie said.
“I don’t know.
Remember, Morgan said this would be a very scary adventure,” said
Jack.
“They’re always
scary,” said Annie. “But we always meet animals who help us, or
people.”
“True,” said
Jack.
“I bet we meet
someone great today,” said Annie.
Jack smiled. He
was starting to feel excited now instead of scared.
“Let’s hurry!” he
said.
They ran into the
Frog Creek woods. They slipped between the tall trees until they
came to a huge oak.
“Hello!” came a
soft voice they knew well.
They looked up.
Morgan was peering down from the magic tree house.
“Ready for your
next mission as Master Librarians?” she asked.
“Yes!” said Jack
and Annie.
They grabbed the
rope ladder and started up.
“Are we still
going to China?” asked Annie when they had climbed into the tree
house.
“Indeed,” said
Morgan. “You’re going to ancient China. Here is the title of the
story you must find.”
She held up a
long, thin strip of wood. It looked like a ruler, except it had
strange writing on it instead of numbers.
“Long ago, the
Chinese discovered how to make paper. It was one of the world’s
most important discoveries,” said Morgan. “But you are going to a
time earlier than that, to a time when books were written on bamboo
strips like this one.”
“Wow,” said
Annie, pointing at the figures on the bamboo. “So this is Chinese
writing?”
“Yes,” said
Morgan. “Just as we have letters, Chinese writing is made up of
many characters. Each one stands for a different thing or idea.
These characters are the title of an ancient Chinese legend. You
must find the first writing of the legend before the Imperial
Library is destroyed.”
“Hurry, let’s
go,” said Annie.
“Wait, we need
our research book,” said Jack.
“Yes, you do,”
said Morgan.
From the folds of
her robe, she pulled out a book. On the cover was the title: The
Time of the First Emperor.
Morgan handed the
book to Jack.
“This research
book will guide you,” she said. “But remember, in your darkest
hour, only the old legend can save you.”
“But we have to
find it first,” said Annie.
“Exactly,” said
Morgan.
She handed Jack
the bamboo strip, and he slipped it into his pack.
Jack pushed his
glasses into place, then pointed at the cover of their research
book.
“I wish we could
go there!” he said.
The wind started
to blow.
The tree house
started to spin. It spun faster and faster.
Then everything
was still.
Absolutely
still.
