Chapter 51 The Book People
"coming!"
On the third floor, Ye Qing, who was sleeping with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, and the Kung Fu Frog beside him also jumped up.
"The voice sounds a little immature, like a child!"
Ye Qing listened for a moment and made a judgment in his mind.
"Brother Frog, let's go down and take a look!" Ye Qing gently opened the door, and like a wisp of smoke, he silently swept down to the third floor.
But as soon as he came down to the lobby, the sound of reading loudly disappeared suddenly, and silence returned to the library.
"You're quite alert!" Ye Qing smiled faintly, but strangely, he didn't feel any gloomy atmosphere in the bookstore. It didn't seem like there was a ghost.
Moreover, the sound of reading just now was clear and crisp, and it did not sound like the sound of some kind of ghost.
"Quack..."
Suddenly, the Kung Fu Frog standing on his shoulder jumped up and grabbed a book on the bookshelf on the right.
"Oh……"
Just when Kung Fu Frog was about to grab the book, a black shadow the size of a palm, resembling a human shape, screamed, turned into a ray of clear light, and dissipated in the air.
"Quack..." Kung Fu Frog's movements were not slow. At the moment when the black shadow fled, he kicked the soles of his feet on the bookshelf, turned around and grabbed another book.
"Yeah..." The black shadow made a voice like a human being, screamed and rushed out of another book, and suddenly disappeared.
That wisp of black shadow was formless and qualityless, as if it could teleport and disappear out of thin air in the blink of an eye. It was impossible to capture it.
But the Kung Fu Frog seems to be able to sense the opponent. No matter how the opponent dodges or disappears out of thin air, the Kung Fu Frog can accurately find the opponent.
So next, a strange scene appeared in the bookstore. A frog kept jumping and croaking, grabbing books one after another, while a human-shaped black shadow kept running away, screaming.
One chase and one escape, so exciting!
However, Ye Qing could see that Kung Fu Frog was not trying his best, as if he was playing with the opponent.
"Book shop? Reading? Human form? Teleportation?" Ye Qing touched his nose, while observing the black shadow in the sky, thinking, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"I know what it is!" Ye Qing raised the corners of his lips, showing an evil smile, and said: "Brother Frog, come back!"
"Quick..." Kung Fu Frog was stunned for a moment. In this moment of confusion, the black shadow disappeared again, and then a burst of childish laughter came from the air: "Yeah, idiot, idiot, two big idiots, we can't catch them.
Stop me, you can’t catch me!”
"Haha..." When the Kung Fu Frog turned over and jumped back onto his shoulder, Ye Qing patted him twice in comfort and said with a smile: "I really can't catch you, but it's easy to kill you!"
"Liar, big liar!" A childish voice sounded in the air.
"Don't believe me?" Ye Qing said with a smile on his face, "If I burn all the books in this library, won't you die?"
Suddenly, there was silence in the air!
"Why didn't you say anything? Didn't you just call me a fool?"
Ye Qing said calmly: "Not only do I know who you are, but I also know that your true form should be in a certain room on the second floor!"
"If you don't come out, I'm really going to burn all the books here!"
There is still deathly silence in the air!
"If you don't come out, I'll really get burned!" Ye Qing's face was filled with a smile, and he deliberately threatened: "I'm a person who always sticks to my word, and I'll really get burned!"
"Wow……"
As soon as he finished speaking, the air froze for a moment, and then there was a burst of crying. A little girl the size of a palm, wearing black and white short sleeves and two braids, appeared on a book on the bookshelf.
At this time, the little girl was squatting on the book, covering her eyes with her hands, crying very sadly.
"..."
Ye Qing was speechless for a while, you said you are a weirdo after all, I just scared you, why are you crying like this, so cowardly?
Yes, the little girl in front of me is exactly a weirdo, and an extremely rare kind of weirdo.
This kind of weird and famous book elves are born from the essence of a place's cultural heritage. They are innocent in nature, like reading, understand people's words, know all things, and know the yin and yang.
Although the people in the book are not of high rank and do not have any fighting ability, they are extremely precious and rare, and the conditions for their birth are extremely harsh!
If you want to give birth to a book person, firstly, the book that gives birth to the person in the book must be a famous classic, and it must be an only copy; the place where the person is born must have a strong cultural atmosphere and knowledge, and have the essence of literary movement; third, the place of birth must be unknown.
If something is filthy and evil, its owner, family members, relatives and friends are not evil or good people. The fourth is that it takes a long time, ranging from dozens of years to hundreds of years, and there is no fixed number. The fifth is...
In short, the conditions for the birth of people in the book are extremely harsh, and there is a certain amount of luck involved, so only some scholarly families or famous and noble families can give birth to people in the book!
Note, it is possible, not certain!
Therefore, the possibility of deliberately nurturing the characters in the book under these conditions is very low.
Although the people in the book have no fighting power and no threat, they possess an unparalleled ability. Because they are born with the essence of the cultural destiny of a place, they are born with literary talents and are familiar with all things. Listening to their readings from time to time can strengthen your memory.
Increasing literary talents, clear mind, clear thoughts, and innocent thoughts are of inestimable value to anyone, especially scholars!
Therefore, some scholars or celebrities are proud to have a person who reads!
Of course, the person in the book also has weaknesses. First, its body is a book, which is very fragile. Once the book is destroyed, the person in the book will also disappear; second, the person in the book cannot leave the original book too far away.
It was based on this that Ye Qing deduced that the person in the book was in a certain room on the second floor, and used this to threaten his appearance.
To be honest, he did not expect that this Wuya Bookstore would actually give birth to a book person. It is probably related to the heritage of Wuya Bookstore. Wuya Bookstore has been passed down for hundreds of years and has collected a large number of precious and unique classics, and every generation of owners has
He is kind and elegant, and Wuya Bookstore is extremely famous in Anyang County. It was through various coincidences that the book man was born.
It's a pity that the original owner was so ignorant that he mistook the rare and unusual book person for a ghost, and finally took advantage of him.
Of course, what he values is not the talent that the people in the book bring to him, after all, he does not want to be the number one scholar, but the ability of the people in the book to know everything is extremely important to him.
It is actually a bit of an exaggeration to say that one knows everything. People in books are born with the essence of a place’s cultural heritage, so they are naturally familiar with the contents of all the books in that place. In the case of the little girl in front of me, she was born with the knowledge of Wuya Shushi, so
He is born to know the contents of all the books in Wuya Bookstore. No matter how many there are, they will be gone!
However, even so, it was already very precious to Ye Qing!
Knowledge is power!
"Okay, stop crying. If you keep crying, the bookstore will be flooded with your tears!" Seeing that the little girl kept crying, Ye Qing touched his nose and said with a smile.
The little girl removed her fingers and took a sneak peek. She found that her tears had not even wet the books under her butt. She immediately said aggrievedly: "Liar, you big liar!"
Then, continue to cry!
Ye Qing said with a smile: "I'm afraid of you, so I promise not to burn you, right?"
"Really?" the little girl said timidly, rubbing her red eyes.
Ye Qing smiled softly: "You are so cute, how could I be willing to burn you? I was just scaring you and tricking you into coming out!"
"Huh, liar!" Although the little girl stopped crying, she still twitched and trembled.
Ye Qing continued: "Not only do I promise not to burn you, but I also promise that you can come out to study at any time without having to sneak around in the middle of the night. How about that?"
Hearing this, the little girl's eyes lit up: "Really?"
"Of course it's true!" Ye Qing assured.
"Yeah, you are such a good person!" The little girl immediately forgot to cry and jumped twice excitedly, completely forgetting who made her cry.
"But, if I promise to let you study, you have to agree to a condition?" Ye Qing's eyes narrowed slightly, like a fox.
"Conditions, what conditions?" the little girl said innocently.
Ye Qing said slowly: "You must read a book for me every night, and I must choose the type of book, how about that?"
The little girl tilted her head and thought for a long time. She felt that there was no loss for her and said: "Okay, I agree to your conditions!"
Ye Qing raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile.
In doing so, he naturally valued the innate ability of people in the book to strengthen other people's memory and clarify people's minds. Firstly, it allowed him to quickly remember the contents of the book. Secondly, it saved him the trouble of reading in person. Thirdly, it could
Close the relationship between him and the little girl.
"Okay, you can go study by yourself, I'm going to bed!" Ye Qing waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Giggle, great, good man!" The little girl jumped up and down happily, diving into this book and that book, having a great time.
"Forgot to ask!" After walking a few steps, Ye Qing seemed to remember something, stopped and said, "My name is Ye Qing, what is your name?"
"Name?" The little girl's flying figure paused and stayed in the air, biting her finger with a sad look on her face: "I don't have a name yet!"
Ye Qing said: "How about I choose one for you? I am the best at choosing names!"
The little girl said dubiously: "Really?"
Ye Qing touched his nose, thought for a long time, and said: "Since you were born from a book and you were born in Wuya Bookstore, why not just scream!"
He is small, cute, and likes to bark and bark, so there is nothing wrong with him!
"No, it's not good. It seems like a boy's name. Why not just call it Yaya? It's so poetic when the rain brings spring back to Yaya!" Immediately, Ye Qing said to himself again,
"Ya Ya?" The little girl bit her lip, thought for a long time, and then laughed loudly and said: "Ya Ya has a name, Ya Ya has a name, oh... great!"
"Ya Ya, you see, we are already good friends. Can my good friend do you one more favor?" Ye Qing raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a fox-like smile.
"What's the business?" Yaya asked doubtfully.
Ye Qing smiled and said: "Do you want me to keep your body for you?"
"No!" Yaya said decisively, looking at Ye Qing warily.
Ye Qing looked like he was thinking about you: "Yaya, as your good friend, I am thinking about you."
"Think about it, your body is like a book, it is too fragile. If you are accidentally bitten by a small insect, you will be injured; if you are eaten by a big mouse, then you will... die!
"
"Ah... little bug? Big mouse?" Yaya seemed to have thought of something terrible, her face turned pale, and after hesitating for a long time, she said: "Okay... okay!"
"Good friend, you must protect Ya Ya well. Don't get bitten by small bugs, let alone be eaten by big rats!"
Yaya took Ye Qing to a room on the second floor. A book flew out of the bookshelf automatically and fell into Yaya's hands. Then she reluctantly handed it to Ye Qing, giving instructions.
"Definitely!" Ye Qing took the book, and the smile on his face became more sincere and brighter.
With Yaya's body, on the one hand, the safety of the little girl can be ensured;
On the other hand, you are not afraid that the other party will run away.
