It is a branch pavilion in Tianlong Pavilion. It catches the eye, and there is a plaque hanging like a flying dragon and a phoenix - Library Pavilion!
"This is the Library Pavilion, which houses all kinds of rare books and articles from all over the world, covering all fields. And sitting in the Library Pavilion is Elder Gu Qi. He is the most authoritative scholar in the field of ancient literature. He is knowledgeable and knowledgeable." Huang Yanxuan looked serious.
He said: "It's just that Elder Gu Qi has a weird temper. I can introduce him to you, but whether I can translate it for you depends on your luck."
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can introduce him to me." Lin Chen said with a smile.
"Yes!" Huang Yanxuan nodded slightly, stood outside the library, and greeted Li Nei respectfully: "Elder Gu Qi, Xiaoxuan needs help, can we talk to him?"
"What's important, young master?" came an old voice from the library.
"I am a friend of Yanxuan. I got an ancient book by chance, but I know nothing about ancient Chinese. Thinking that you are proficient in ancient Chinese and knowledgeable, I came here to ask for help. I hope you can be accommodating." Huang Yanxuan replied, although Gu Qi is only a scholar.
Although he is a scholar, he has a very high status in Tianlong Pavilion. This can be seen from Huang Yanxuan's tone.
"Ancient books?" The old man showed some interest and replied calmly: "Come in first!"
"Thank you, Elder." Huang Yanxuan responded respectfully, and then said to Lin Chen and the others seriously: "Everyone, when you enter the library later, you are not allowed to touch anything."
"Understood, we will cherish everything in the library." Lin Chen replied.
Soon!
Entering the library, there are rows of bookshelves neatly displayed, listing all kinds of mysterious and unknown books. On the surrounding walls, there are several bright lamps and poems and paintings. They are antique, clean, and seem to be filled with
In the fragrance of books and paintings.
In addition, the library is filled with bursts of literary and righteous atmosphere, and there is a sense of oppression that makes people behave. If the evil atmosphere enters, it will be dissipated immediately.
"You have too many friends!" An old voice came out coldly, with a hint of displeasure.
Follow the news!
Then I saw a white old man in rich clothes, sitting in a wheelchair, moving slowly. He was old-fashioned, full of energy, and his eyes were shining, as deep as the sea, very mysterious, and there were waves of text involuntarily filling his body.
Confucian and upright, he has the demeanor of an outsider.
Cultivation is nothing?
No!
The old man in front of him has cultivated his state of mind, and his state of mind has been cultivated extremely deeply. His sharp eyes glanced at him, making Lin Chen and others feel their hearts fluttering, as if they had been peeped through in an instant, giving them an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
.
Behind the old man, a young man stood upright, with a cold expression, an extremely cold attitude, and even a somewhat contemptuous look. But this young man obviously has martial arts cultivation, and is estimated to be very high.
Duan Zhenwu realm.
"I'm sorry to disturb you, these are Xiaoxuan's friends." Huang Yanxuan bowed respectfully, and then said to Lin Chen and the others: "Brother Chen, this is Elder Gu Qi who is in charge of the library, and he is also a close friend of my father's."
"Juniors have met Elder Gu." Lin Chen and others bowed their hands and saluted, feeling panicked. It seemed that Gu Qi had no martial arts skills, but it invisibly gave them a heavy feeling of depression.
Gu Qi glanced slightly and said calmly: "In this library, there are a total of 1,580,000 volumes of various types of books, covering three thousand years of ancient and modern times, and recording thousands of ancient texts. If the so-called ancient books in your hands are just looking for
If I’m joking, don’t blame me for being rude!”
"Forehead?"
Lin Chen and the others couldn't help sweating on their foreheads, this Gu Qi's temper was really extraordinary.
Dugu felt guilty and whispered: "Brother Chen, I always feel that the ancient book in your hand is very unreliable. I'll let it go so as not to annoy this old senior."
"Don't whisper in front of me, I can hear everything you say clearly!" Gu Qi snorted.
Dugu Chong was startled and said in panic: "Elder, please calm down, it's the junior who is rude."
As he said that, Dugu Chong glanced at Lin Chen sideways again, trying to persuade Lin Chen to give up. If this ancient book was really forged by a charlatan, it would be a small matter of embarrassment, but it would be troublesome to upset Gucci.
Qin Yao knew that Gu Qi was extraordinary and had a weird temper. She was worried that Lin Chen would offend Gu Qi, so she secretly squeezed Lin Chen's hand and reminded her intentionally.
Gu Qi looked sharply and asked: "Don't be so coy, what kind of ancient book is it? Let me take a good look at it!"
Hear the sound!
Lin Chen struggled in his heart for a while. In fact, he felt a little guilty, but he still chose to believe his feelings and took out the ancient books obtained from the treasure appraisal event.
"Huh?" Gu Qi frowned, seeming a little surprised. His eyes followed the dilapidated ancient book in Lin Chen's hand. He felt a strong aroma of ancient fragrance, and his attitude suddenly became much calmer, and he said
: "Little friend, can you show me?"
"Of course, senior, please take a look." Lin Chen handed it over respectfully, but Dugu Chong and the others just felt guilty. They really never thought that any real antiquities would be found at the treasure appraisal event.
Gu Qi seems to have a special love for ancient books. He caressed the old ancient book slightly, and the writing on the cover was very blurred. He couldn't help but ask: "May I ask my friend, where did this ancient book come from?
"
"I got it from today's treasure appraisal event in your city." Lin Chen told the truth.
"What!? A treasure appraisal event? Are those charlatans planning a treasure appraisal event?" The cold-looking young man behind Gu Qi suddenly became furious and scolded: "Are you humiliating my teacher?"
"Lengfeng, please don't be rude!" Gu Qi groaned and apologized: "I made you laugh. This is my student Lengfeng. If I have offended you, I hope you will forgive me."
"It doesn't matter." Lin Chen smiled slightly and didn't care.
However, Leng Feng was unwilling to give up and said: "Teacher! You don't know that this treasure appraisal event is originally a trick of charlatans and swindlers. They often forge some antiquities and use deception to defraud others of their money."
"I can tell you that this ancient book has a history of at least two thousand years and is not a forgery." Gu Qi said in a deep voice.
"This,,," Leng Feng was stunned. Gu Qi's words were authoritative, so he didn't dare to question them. But he didn't expect that the treasure appraisal event, a smoky den of scammers, would actually find an ancient book.
"Well?"
Dugu Chong and others were stunned, could it really be a genuine ancient book?
Involuntarily, Gu Qi added: "Although the text of this ancient book is vague, I estimate that this ancient book has a history of at least two thousand years."
Two thousand years!?
Dugu Chong was surprised at them. They didn't dare to question Gu Qi's authority, but Lin Chen must have been so lucky that he actually found an ancient book. Not to mention Leng Feng, whose face turned red from holding back.
Lin Chen also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was secretly happy that Gu Qi could identify the history of this ancient book at a glance, so he should be able to translate this ancient book.
I'm just curious in my heart, what is recorded in this ancient book? The secret book of magic? The art of alchemy? The art of formation? Or the lifelong experience of the powerful people in the past? It actually has a long history, and it is full of infinite mystery.
.
Can't help!
Gu Qi carefully opened the ancient book, and when he raised his hand, an incomprehensible and mysterious literary spirit gently erased the historical dust particles on the ancient book, revealing lines of mysterious, strange and grotesque words.
At first, Gucci frowned, then showed a bit of surprise, and finally became intoxicated.
But Leng Feng was still unwilling to give in, and couldn't help but attack: "The cover can be real, but the ancient text inside can be forged. I don't believe that the charlatans at the treasure appraisal event can find any treasures in their hands!"
But just finished!
Gu Qi couldn't control his emotions, and praised repeatedly: "Wonderful! Wonderful! So wonderful! The words recorded in this ancient book are extremely mysterious, and there are many ancient texts that I can't even distinguish! If I am not mistaken, this
The ancient texts in the ancient books are at least three thousand years old!"
Three thousand years!?
Everyone was shocked, even Lin Chen was shocked.
Three thousand years, what kind of concept is that?
"How... how is this possible!?" Leng Feng was so shocked that he was almost numb. Not to mention what this ancient text recorded, its historical value alone was enough to kill thousands of ancient books in the library.
"Oh my God! Brother Chen, what are your eyes made of? They are so magical! Such an old antique has been stolen!" Dugu Chong exclaimed.
"Brother Chen really has a sharp eye for pearls." Huang Yanxuan also breathed a sigh of relief. At first, he was worried when he heard that it was obtained from a treasure appraisal event. Now that he knows the value of this ancient book, he is very impressed.
"Luck, really lucky, maybe I feel that I am destined to it." Lin Chen smiled. He knew that this ancient book was genuine, but he did not expect that the gold content would be so high.
"Haha, the world is big and full of wonders. It's just that some people don't know the difference. Of course, you also have to pay attention to fate." Gu Qi said with a slight smile, already beginning to fall in love with this ancient book.
Lin Chen was even more excited and couldn't help but ask: "Senior, what exactly is recorded in this ancient book?"
Everyone was also quite curious, waiting for Gucci's answer.
"The ancient texts recorded in this ancient book are extremely mysterious and complex. I can't identify them one by one. I need to consult a lot of information. So I can't give you an accurate answer now, but it should be a certain predecessor who can write as he pleases." Gu Qi said seriously.
replied.
"Then, senior, can you translate the text?" Lin Chen asked again.
"I need some time."
"how long will it takes?"
"Three days!"
"This..." Lin Chen was stunned, he had to rush back to the master's gate in three days, and then said: "I'm sorry, junior has to rush back to the master's gate in three days, can it be faster?"
"Hmph! Do you really think that translating ancient texts is an easy job? My teacher is willing to help you translate because of the value of this ancient book. How dare you bargain with my teacher!" Lengfeng snorted coldly.
"Lengfeng, watch your words!" Gu Qi groaned, then smiled at Lin Chen: "My friend, let's do this, give me two days, and I will help you translate as soon as possible. But I have a condition, I need you to be able to translate it.
Keep this ancient book, after all, it has great collection significance."
"Of course, the junior only needs the translation in the ancient text, and this ancient book will be given to the senior." Lin Chen said with a smile.
"Thank you so much." Gu Qi was overjoyed and said, "It won't be too late. I'll go get busy now. Please help yourself."
Say it!
Gucci left impatiently.
"The ancient elder has such a temper, he has a special enthusiasm and fascination for ancient characters." Huang Yanxuan said with a smile: "Haha, it actually takes two days to translate the text. Why don't you all stay in Tianlong Pavilion, I will entertain you well."
"Thank you for bothering me!" Lin Chen was very grateful. Huang Yanxuan was really helpful this time.
