On the busy street, on the side of the road, Yunjing is holding a green willow tree with his left hand, raising his right hand slightly, looking ahead without focus, his body slightly bent forward, and his mouth slowly opens and closes...
For a moment, nothing happened.
He originally wanted to sneeze, but couldn't, so he had no choice but to rub his nose.
"Someone is definitely talking about me behind my back!" He muttered in his mind. After rubbing his nose, he felt much better and didn't care. He continued walking towards the direction of Master Liu's original bookstore.
As for leaving from the entrance of Qingniu Academy before, he really didn't think much about it, he just simply didn't want to join in the fun.
Fortunately, he didn't go, otherwise he would have fallen into someone's 'trap'.
The capital city was really big, so Yunjing was not in a hurry and headed to the bookstore leisurely and leisurely. It must be said that the prosperity of the capital city exceeded any place Yunjing had ever been in this world.
That hotel is full of wine, that inn has flags waving, that brothel is big and white, that beggar looks like an uncle, he won’t accept anything less than three copper coins, who are you looking down on? The beggars in our capital can’t be compared with other places.
Well, the cards still need to be there, right?
The prosperous city of Dali has become prosperous, but in Yun Jing's eyes, he still can't get rid of the word "backward". Most of the people's clothes are still simple, and they are not half-clothed, but most people still have clothes that are dirty.
Wear patches.
Probably for the vast majority of people in this world, they can live a good life if they have enough to eat, warm clothes, and a place to live.
Different people have different definitions of the word "good life".
Three years of new life, three years of old life, and another three years of mending are the truest portrayal of this world.
No matter how rich a person is, they would not dare to do it openly in public, as they would be spurned and scolded behind their backs.
"The polarization between the two classes is very serious. Even in Dali Capital, as a scholar, when walking on the road, ordinary people still dare not block the way. They have no sense of superiority as a capital citizen..."
Along the way, you can have a panoramic view of all living things.
After walking through half of the capital, it took Yunjing more than two hours to arrive near Master Liu's bookstore.
Then he saw an interesting scene. An elderly man was wandering on a quiet street, constantly looking at the buildings on both sides.
This old man is obviously a scholar, and the scholar's temperament engraved in his bones cannot be imitated by ordinary people.
Walking slowly, he muttered something: "It's strange, I remember there is a time-honored bookstore nearby. I came here twenty years ago. The owner of the bookstore is a nice person, why can't I find it?
Here we are, could it have been moved? But that’s not right, the bookstore has been there for at least hundreds of years, there is no reason to move it.”
After looking at the old scholar, Yunjing looked at the ancient building more than 20 meters away, with a flash of understanding in his eyes.
The ancient building in Yunjing's eyes is located on this street and is very inconspicuous. It has three floors and covers a small area. There is a tattered plaque hanging on the door with the words "Suiyuan Bookstore".
Yunjing had no doubt that Suiyuan Bookstore was the bookstore that the old scholar was looking for, but he seemed to have been wandering around for a long time, but he just turned a blind eye to the bookstore!
This is definitely Liu Neng's handiwork. Even though the bookstore is right there, if you are an 'unpredestined' person, you will never find it. It seems to exist outside the world.
"The true artistic conception can already interfere with other people's consciousness with will. With the method of the mythical realm, it shouldn't be difficult to block other people's senses in a certain place for a long time."
With thoughts flickering in his mind, Yunjing looked at the Suiyuan Bookstore and squinted his eyes carefully to take in the experience. Then his consciousness suddenly fell into a trance, as if a normal person had been put in a washing machine and stirred for an hour, making him dizzy, nauseated and nauseated.
Amidst such discomfort, a vast breath came to my face, grand and deep, but not overbearing.
I didn't dare to feel it with my heart anymore. In Yunjing's eyes, the bookstore once again returned to its ancient and ordinary appearance.
Taking a deep breath, Yunjing couldn't help but marvel at the methods of the mythical realm.
"Under the interference of the will of the Mythical Realm, the existence of the bookstore cannot be seen at all unless it is at that level. If you try to break in forcefully, you will find the backlash of the will of the Mythical Realm. Fortunately, Liu Neng is not a vicious person after all, and he only used small methods to
It’s just a small punishment, but if someone doesn’t know how to advance or retreat, I’m afraid it won’t just be as simple as dizziness, nausea and vomiting!”
Thinking of this, Yun Jing understood why no one could feel that the bookstore was there, and no thieves had ever visited it.
So why can I see it at a glance? I must have Liu Neng’s permission.
"So before I wanted to explore the secrets of this bookstore, it was purely my own doing. The methods of the mythical realm are not what I can figure out now. If I continue, I am afraid that I will be greeted by the annihilation of my will."
Thinking about it, she was still a little scared. Yun Jingxin said that she would come as soon as she came, so she could just go there. Why do she have to make herself uncomfortable? Fortunately, Liu Neng was still kind, otherwise...
Walking over slowly, the old scholar was already asking the people around him, but the answer he got was that there were no bookstores around at all. Some people even swore, patting their chests and promising that they would live here for decades.
I have never seen a so-called bookstore.
But the problem is that the bookstore is right there!
The old scholar who did not believe in evil asked many people in succession and all got the same answer.
Not to mention him, all the passers-by on this quiet street subconsciously ignored the ancient bookstore, as if it didn't exist. Even if they were close, they would go elsewhere inexplicably.
In Yunjing's view, this kind of 'effect' is no worse than the illusion in the north, which shows the importance of the word myth.
Thinking about it, the few words left by the late Master Chen made Yunjing feel as if he had fallen into another world. Not to mention that Liu Neng was still alive and now he was able to set foot in Xiaoyao. If he wanted to, it is estimated that the entire capital
They can only live in 'his world'.
Arriving at the door of the bookstore, Yun Jing gently pushed the door open and entered.
Strange to say, some people had noticed him before, but as soon as he set foot in the bookstore, people around him subconsciously forgot about him.
This kind of neglect is not that the memory has been tampered with, but it is like ordinary people scanning the ground and excluding a grain of dust from the memory.
This bookstore was obviously very old, and the rickety door made a sharp creaking sound when the door was opened.
The light inside the bookstore is not dark, nor does it have the musty smell that comes after it has not been taken care of for a long time. There is no accumulation of dust inside, as if someone is cleaning and tidying it up all the time.
Standing at the door and taking a gentle breath, Yunjing smelled the fragrance of ink that made him feel happy.
"This bookstore can be regarded as an amazing treasure for both scholars and martial arts practitioners!"
Yunjing thought as he scanned everything in the bookstore.
This bookstore contains the crystallization of Liu Neng's wisdom, and even his summary of martial arts, the value of which cannot be measured by money at all.
However, Liu Neng gave all of this to Yun Jing lightly. This was to repay Yun Jing's kindness in helping him achieve enlightenment.
Of course, this is not how the accounts are calculated. The things here are useless to Liu Neng and cannot offset the grace of enlightenment. They can only be said to express Liu Neng's feelings.
The bookstore seemed a bit crowded, with large and small bookshelves filling every room, and every bookshelf was full of books. The entire three-story building was like this.
Each of the books here is not brand new, but neither is it tattered. It is obvious that each one has been read frequently, and some even have burrs.
Yunjing can guarantee that every book here has been read by Liu Neng, even more than once. He has lived for hundreds of years. As his realm improves, especially after the mythical realm, he may have read all the books here.
You can read it every day!
Randomly picking up a book from his summer vacation, Yun Jing flipped through it and admired Liu Neng again.
This is just an enlightenment book for children, but in this book, Liu Neng wrote densely packed annotations in tiny characters, and the content of the annotations is more than ten times the content of the book itself!
Moreover, the annotations in the book were obviously erased and re-annotated many times...
"You are worthy of being a master. I am admired by the younger generation. This spirit of seeking excellence is worthy of being remembered and learned by the younger generation." Yun Jing said sincerely while looking at the book in his hand.
It is just an enlightenment book for children. Master Liu actually pondered and updated the annotations countless times. Who among ordinary people can have such a spirit of inquiry?
Just think about it, you know how boring and boring it is. How many people can persevere for hundreds of years?
With just this children's enlightenment book in his hand, Yunjing felt that its value could not be measured in terms of money, because the meaning it expressed had been refined to a whole new level by Master Liu, who elaborated on the contents of the book from different angles.
And it can be said that the above embodies the spiritual will of Liu Neng’s mythical realm.
Regarding this enlightenment book, Yun Jing feels that if he continues to read and study it below the realm of mythology, he will gain huge gains.
This is no exaggeration at all!
Take Yunjing's previous life as an example. If an enlightenment book annotated by a 'sage' were given to future generations, it would probably be enough for a large number of experts to form a research team...
Putting the enlightenment book in his hand back to its original place, Yunjing took one he had taken since he was a child and opened it. The contents were almost the same, with small prints full of annotations that had been repeatedly overturned and re-annotated.
For Liu Neng in the mythical realm, it is not easy to erase the ink on books and rewrite them.
Yunjing had no doubt that all the books in the bookstore must have been annotated by Liu Neng repeatedly!
"I remember studying this book when I was in my second year at school. It was an ordinary textbook. But now when I read it again, especially comparing it with Master's annotations, I actually feel like I learned it from a dog.
I used to think that I had learned everything, but now I realize how superficial I am!" Yun Jing murmured, looking at the book in his hand.
How simple was the content at the beginning of the study? However, after Master Liu's comments, it seemed as if he was pointing directly to the "fundamentals of the great road" and had already deviated from the level that his own book was intended to express!
I'm afraid only a master from the mythical realm who has lived for hundreds of years can have the time and patience to study the content for beginners over and over again.
Slowly raising his head and looking at the books in the room, Yunjing thought to himself that if he read all the contents in the books and memorized them in his mind, taking the Jinshi exam would be just like a joke.
However, if you have read and remembered it, you have only read and remembered it. If you want to 'digest' the content and make it your own, it will be an extremely long process, let alone understanding the content to the level of Master Liu.
.
What is the difference between this and face-to-face teaching from a master from the mythical realm? But to what extent you can learn depends on your talent and hard work.
"Sure enough, there is no end to learning. All the scholars in the world are just toddlers on the road of learning. Even the Master is still on the way. He has just gone further than others. Even in the realm of leisure, he has not
Who dares to say that he has reached the extreme on the road of learning?"
Whispering in his heart, Yunjing regretted coming here.
Because when I came here, I realized how insignificant I was. In front of people like Master, I was nothing.
What makes Yun Jing a little bit "unacceptable" is that Liu Neng's unconventional character is too inconsistent with the contents of the books he left behind.
"Hiss, the books here are enough for me to read for a lifetime. Even if I am lucky enough to set foot in the mythical realm in the future, these things left by Master Liu are still worthy of my repeated study and reference!"
Taking a deep breath, Yunjing knew that he would be very busy next, and there was no end to learning!
No wonder a master can support a thousand-year-old family. Even if the dynasty changes, many such families cannot be shaken. No wonder Master Chen has fallen for many years, but the Chen family still has a transcendent status. Such a family, with the cultural treasures left by the 'ancestors', will be able to
How many great political talents have been cultivated?
Master, the spiritual beliefs of many scholars can bless future generations even if they die. As long as future generations do not take the initiative to die, it is not difficult to pass them on for thousands of years.
Slowly flipping through the books in his hands, studying and understanding word by word, Yun Jing gradually became fascinated by the book. Originally, he had understood many things thoroughly, but now he compared it with Confucius's annotations and realized how simple his understanding was.
Reading is always something that makes Yunjing happy physically and mentally. Now with Master Liu's wisdom, Yunjing is even happier reading.
Holding the book and studying it, Yunjing subconsciously sat on the recliner left by Liu Neng, forgetting his original intention of coming here to take some books and go back.
For him, this place is like entering a brothel with Lao Sepi and reluctant to leave...
When it comes to knowledge, some people may say that if you understand it, you understand it, and if you don't understand it, you don't understand it. However, if you think you have a thorough understanding of the same problem, but if an "old academician" explains it to you again, it will be the same.
?
Time passed little by little, and when Yunjing slowly read a book annotated by Master Liu, although he had not fully understood many of the meanings that Master Liu wanted to express, he still felt a sense of spiritual fulfillment, just like
Just like the Confused Initiation, the strength of his soul has been significantly improved, as if gold and iron have been tempered in the fire!
"Master Liu seems to be careless, but he left the most precious things to me. No wonder this place is called Suiyuan Bookstore. Master Liu has such a broad mind. How can he be such a stingy person? It is really a person's character and knowledge that have not reached a certain level.
To the point where I simply can’t understand the crystallization of wisdom he left behind. Even if I am a bit literate, it still seems a bit difficult!” After closing the book, Yunjing sighed in his heart, and then went to change another book to continue studying.
.
It is undeniable that there are differences between the wisdom Liu Neng left behind and Yunjing's previous life cognition in some aspects, but such differences must be seen in line with the reality of this world, and based on Yunjing's current accumulation
, he is still unable to engage in intellectual debate with Master Liu's ideological realm, but he still has this self-knowledge.
Even though Yunjing stumped Master Liu with a few questions, he only took advantage of his knowledge in his previous life. In terms of real knowledge, Yunjing had never been arrogant enough to think that he could compare with Master Liu.
Ideas are ideas, and their wisdom and ideological realm are real...
While Yun Jing was silent in his studies, the Qingniu Academy on the other side had a different scene.
This day was a dark day for countless students of Qingniu Academy. They were so overwhelmed by the three members of the Sanluo Dynasty that they could hardly lift their heads. Their faces were dull, their teeth were gritted and they were helpless.
The discussion of knowledge is not as direct as that of martial arts, but the "light of sword, shadow" in it is not at all as dangerous as the danger of fighting in martial arts, and that kind of mental blow is more uncomfortable than the physical injury.
On the way of governing the country, every young talent in Qingniu Academy was rendered speechless. In terms of chess skills, no one could hold on for a stick of incense with Wu Changkong, and no one could persist in painting skills after Zhu Can painted a painting.
, but few people dare to write. As for poetry, when Chen Lin writes a poem, almost no one dares to speak!
It was so embarrassing. In front of everyone, the three people from the Baiyun Academy of the Sanluo Dynasty were so proud of themselves, but not many people from the Qingniu Academy dared to look at them.
I was really shocked.
Is it because the students of the Blue Ox Academy are not good? Of course not. They are all well-educated. Is it because the people of the Blue Ox Academy don’t understand that using their own shortcomings to attack their strengths is humiliating themselves? Of course they
Know.
It's because the three students from the Sanluo Dynasty are guests. They come to visit and discuss knowledge. The Blue Ox Academy must show its own grace and let the other party propose a 'discussion' method. Then everyone in the Blue Ox Academy falls down.
Already.
Moreover, the three students of the Sanluo Dynasty have already agreed in advance that they are good at different fields. If the Blue Bull Academy proposes areas that they are not good at, they will directly admit defeat. For this reason, the people of the Blue Bull Academy
Are they embarrassed to bring up areas they are not good at?
It is obvious that the people of the Sang Luo Dynasty were 'playing hooligans', but as scholars, we have to be 'reasonable'.
The word "property" for scholars shows its tangled place at this time. People "pay attention to etiquette", and as a host, you can't be shameless and not "pay attention to etiquette", right?
Then there was a scene where the students of Qingniu Academy were so depressed that they couldn't lift their heads. It was so depressing that it made people want to vomit blood.
To be honest, this is really disgusting, but this is a conspiracy. If it is a conspiracy, with so many people watching, how shameless is the Qingniu Academy?
"It's so abominable. Who can go up and suppress them? If they are allowed to leave like this, how will they see anyone in the future?"
"That's easy to say. Just take a lantern grass. Didn't you see that everyone who went up was defeated? If you go any further, you are simply bringing shame on yourself."
"The most troubling thing is that they admit defeat directly in the areas they are not good at, and they are so calm. We are too embarrassed to bring up the areas they are not good at. They are so shameless. Although this means that some of their conveniences are not as good as ours, but
It just makes people feel ashamed and gritted their teeth!”
"It's not that our Youth Academy is unmanned, it's actually that they took advantage of the opportunity for the most outstanding people in our Youth Academy to study. They were obviously well prepared, and the older generation can't lower themselves to bully the young people!
"
"I remember that there is another person from our Qingniu Academy in the capital. How about inviting him to dampen the opponent's spirit?"
"You are talking about Mr. Chen, right? I believe that Mr. Chen will not lose to any of them. The problem is that we are not important enough. We are not even qualified to set foot in Mr. Chen's family. Moreover, the member of the Chen family is no longer around. As a result, Mr. Chen
How could the future successor of the Chen family easily appear at such a scene? If the reputation is damaged, it is related to the face of the Chen family, and the imperial court will not allow this to happen."
"In addition to Mr. Chen, there is another prince who is the descendant of my husband. Why don't you invite him?"
"What are you thinking? Don't tell me that he is not from our Qingniu Academy. Even if he is invited, haven't you heard the news now? How can the other party easily take risks and damage his reputation? Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst.
"
"This won't work, and that won't work either. Are we just going to let them show off their power?"
"this……"
"Since you can't write well, why not just compete in martial arts?"
"We scholars, you actually proposed a martial arts competition? Isn't that humiliating enough? And are you sure that someone from the younger generation can beat them?"
…
The students of Qingniu Academy were talking a lot, but they were almost at a loss to deal with the current situation.
In fact, in the field where the opponent is good at, there is no one on our side who can beat him.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, ‘Wu Changkong’ looked at the sky, saluted in all directions and said: “Since no one is on stage, it’s getting late today, so why not just come here, and if there is a chance, come back to communicate another day.”
The more polite he (she) behaves, the more shameless the people of Qingniu Academy will be.
Obviously, "Wu Changkong" is very good at grasping people's hearts and understands the principle of stopping in moderation. He has achieved his goal by leaving. If he continues to suppress him too hard, it may be counterproductive. This is just right now.
In response to this, the students of Qingniu Academy were slightly relieved, but at the same time they wished they could find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
A gentleman came forward to persuade him to stay, but Wu Changkong and others insisted on leaving after being polite. There was no point in staying.
It is conceivable what kind of shock will be caused by the news that with their departure, the younger generation of Qingniu Academy cannot hold their heads up due to the power of three people.
"Now you know how embarrassing it is? I usually let you study hard and turn a deaf ear, but now how does it feel to be slapped in the face in public? You, what you are embarrassing is not your own face, what you are embarrassing is the face of the academy, and what is lost is Dali's face.
!”
"Don't be dissatisfied, and don't always think of others to help you. If you can't do it yourself, you can't do it. What's the point of relying on others?"
"It's such a shame. Why are you still holding on? Let's all leave. Your husband will have a hard time than you..."
Wen Cangnan reprimanded him with a disappointed look on his face, then shook his head and left. However, he was not very disappointed in his heart. After all, he came here prepared. Instead, he hoped that these students who had been hit would not be depressed. If they can work hard from now on, it would not be a bad thing.
Everything has two sides, it depends on how each person sees it.
After "Wu Changkong" and the others left the academy, they calmly faced the gazes of the people around them, and did not get carried away because the Qingniu Academy could not lift its head under the pressure.
"It's finally over. I've been tense for so long and finally achieved my goal," Zhu Can said with a smile.
It can be heard from his words that they were not as relaxed as they seemed before. After all, the three of them faced the entire academy. It would be false to say that there was no pressure.
"So where are we going next?" Chen Lin asked, rubbing his eyebrows.
Zhu Can said: "Didn't we plan to have a night's rest and go to other academic palaces tomorrow to discuss exchanges? The four academic palaces in Dali are our final destination, and we have to visit them all."
"Then let's go as planned. Last year's war...hey, I hope what I have done can save some face," Chen Lin said in a complicated tone.
Although they have enjoyed great success in the south during this period, their hearts bleed when they think of the war last year. Three countries formed an alliance, but were defeated by Dali, especially the fall of the mythical realm. Now the three northern countries
It all depends on the face of the Dali Dynasty. As for things like paying compensation and protons, I don’t know how long I will have to bear this shame.
In view of this, what they did during this period seemed insignificant.
Don't look at the slap in the face of many younger students from Dali, but looking at the country, what does it matter? In some scenes, people from the three northern countries still can't hold their heads up in front of people from Dali.
It can even be said that the young talents they selected with the whole country went south to sweep Dali, and they also used some conspiracy. This was not a glorious thing, and it could be said that they could not win with force, but this little thing was ignored by them.
Ignored.
The family and the country are the most important, so what does everyone’s honor and disgrace matter?
'Wu Changkong' who didn't say anything at this time flashed his eyes and said: "Someone over there said that there is a magical bookstore in the capital city. People who are not destined can't see it, and only those who are destined can enter it. Nothing happens, so why don't we go there?
See if you are destined to be the right person?"
"I heard it too, but Brother Wu, I wonder if you couldn't tell that this was clearly revealed to us on purpose?" Zhu Can said thoughtfully.
Chen Lin also nodded and said: "Yes, this is obviously just for us. In fact, it is deliberately trying to lure us there. Remember not to be fooled by Dali."
But Wu Changkong shook his head and said: "We are so scheming that the younger generation of Qingniu Academy cannot hold their heads up, so why don't we allow Dali to retaliate in the same way? Since Dali deliberately led us there, if
If we don’t even have this bit of courage, wouldn’t we be looking down upon? If we don’t go, the purpose of our trip will be greatly compromised.”
"Brother Wu is right. We know it's a conspiracy, but we have to leave. Although it doesn't matter if we don't go, we will be despised by the people behind it. We have to accept it!",
Zhu Can said tangledly.
"Then let's take a trip. I want to see what kind of tricks Da Li is playing. I hope it won't disappoint me too much." "Wu Changkong" said with a relaxed smile.
Many things are so simple and do not need to be deliberately arranged. It is just a matter of one sentence. Everyone is "reciprocal". Since you have made moves within the rules, we have also pinched our noses and admitted it. Now that we are making moves, you will accept it or not.
?
There is no need for Wu Changkong and others to deliberately look for the so-called magical bookstore. Someone will naturally help them 'point the way' along the way.
"It depends on the little guy's performance next," Xia Ziyue said with a smile secretly.
Deng Changchun beside him said tangledly: "I'm worried that guy won't pay attention to these people at all."
