Chapter 2 Long Lantern Ten Thousand Scrolls, Learning Kaidao Mountain
1.
The first story.
"Eh, have you two heard...... The management teacher of the school library has changed. ”
"What's all the fuss about. ”
"That's right, Lao Yuan has reached his age, and he should have retired. ”
"Who wants to discuss Lao Yuan with the two of you. The focus should be on the new teacher!"
"I heard that it looks quite young and beautiful!"
"What the hell does it look like?
"Not yet...... But let's go to the library during the self-study class this afternoon. ”
"I don't have any books to borrow......"
"Are you stupid! Why do you have to borrow books to meet people, as a librarian, she will definitely patrol the library floor, and she will not be able to see it then!"
Then, the three students actually went to the library for two full study hall sessions, and then ......
And then there is no more!
They didn't see the new beautiful teacher, even if they finally couldn't bear it anymore and made a little movement on the library floor, they didn't get the new teacher down as they wished, but it attracted the eyes of the students, which made them really embarrassed.
The new teacher seemed to understand only the job of the so-called "librarian" as "responsible for the registration of borrowings", and other things such as "caring for books and maintaining order" did not seem to be within the scope of her work.
The teacher had never been down to the second floor of the library, and if they did, they would have discovered an even more shocking fact—
She didn't even take a step out of the office!
...............
The second story.
In Xu Wenqiang's speech, there are no words "boy" and "girl", only "handsome guy" and "beauty". It is said that this is the profound experience he summed up as the "first communicative little prince of the year": whether this person is a man or a woman, old or young, tall or short or fat or thin, beautiful or ugly, he only needs to call a man a "handsome guy" and a woman a "beauty", and he can easily get closer to others.
Until one day, he walked into the office of the new librarian.
Xu Wenqiang didn't knock on the door first when he entered, this was already his habitual action, and he directly pushed the door in with a big grin. In his opinion, as long as he walked in the door, he said: "Beauty." "All the abrupt problems can be solved.
"Beauty ......"
"Get out!"
Before the atmosphere could be set up, it had fallen to freezing.
Xu Wenqiang was caught off guard, and was hit by this blow and couldn't find the north: What kind of fairy is this? Why don't you follow the script...... However, he still continued according to his usual routine: "Beauty, don't see the outside like this......"
The person behind the desk then looked away from the book in her hand and glanced up at Xu Wenqiang, who suddenly closed his mouth, and his originally frivolous expression turned into a look of astonishment and then horror.
The female teacher's eyes look very plain, which can be said to be as flat as still water. But the moment he was stared at by that gaze, Xu Wenqiang only felt as if he had fallen into the ice all of a sudden. A biting, heartfelt coldness spread throughout his body, plunging Xu Wenqiang's brain into a numb blank.
A thought of ice?
Xu Wenqiang didn't know how to describe this feeling, and if he had to say it, he could only come up with this word from the fantasy novels he usually read.
However, he never thought that such a thing was real!
He was so enveloped by that deep fear that he didn't even notice the astonishing face of the woman in front of him.
"You...... Are you here to borrow books?"
A very ethereal voice broke the silence, and the teacher spoke. Xu Wen came back to his senses violently, and his usual extremely confident appearance no longer existed, and he stammered, "Yes...... Yes yes...... Yes!" Even he was startled when he opened his mouth, for he heard his own voice which was now horribly hoarse.
The female teacher pointed to the computer placed outwards on the table, and said in a very cold tone, "Register yourself." ”
"Huh?" Xu Wenqiang looked dazed.
"Do you need me to teach you?" the chill grew a little more.
Xu Wenqiang was caught off guard and hurriedly waved his hand: "No...... No, no, no...... No need, I'll ...... I'll do it myself...... Come on your own!" After finishing speaking, he hurried to the computer, held up a pair of trembling hands, and used the fastest hand speed in his life, and quickly registered.
"Go out when you're registered, remember to close the door. ”
Xu Wenqiang was amnesty, turned around and fled from the desperate office in embarrassment.
...............
"So," Lin Xiao looked at the self-inflicted expression on Xu Wenqiang's face, "That's why you would rather go to the library so many times than borrow the books back?!"
2.
"Teacher Xiao Ye, aren't you going to the teacher appreciation banquet tonight?"
Ye Xin looked up at the female teacher standing at the door, and remembered that this teacher appreciation banquet was held very big at the invitation of her classmates, and the aunt in charge of the dormitory and the security guard at the door were invited to participate, and she was also the librarian.
She shook her head and smiled slightly: "No, I'm not a classroom teacher anyway, so I won't join in the fun." ”
An hour ago, the college entrance examination just ended, and after sending away batches of candidates, no one will come. Therefore, the lights in the library were turned off early today, and the reading rooms and corridors outside were quiet and dark.
The only light source in the office is the antique-style copper palace lamp on the table, and the bright yellow warm light reflects on Ye Xin's girl-like face, which makes her smile bright and moving, and the female teacher can't help but be stunned when she sees it.
Ye Xinmu sent his colleague down the stairs around the corner, and also took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes and eyebrows. After a short break, she closed the book in her hand, which had reached the end of the page, got up and walked out of the office, and went down to the library floor on the first floor.
Walking among the dark bookshelves without any inconvenience. Ye Xin is actually not short-sighted, her glasses have never been prescription, but she has always been used by her to cover some things that she thinks are inappropriate - such as eyes.
Walk through the fantasy and romance novel areas, walk past the literary bookshelves, and bypass the newspapers. Ye Xin walked and stopped, looking all the way, and finally stopped in front of the bookshelf where the historical classics were placed.
She stretched out her slender fingers and gently swiped over the rows of spines, and after a few moments she found what she was looking for, pulling two books from the shelves.
It's "Mozi" and "Historical Records".
Ye Xin was obviously very clear about what she was looking for, and she simply glanced at the table of contents of the two books, and then turned to the corresponding page number.
There is a cloud in "Mozi Cultivation Note": "If the Xia Hou clan loses, the Yin people will receive it; Xiahou, Yin, and Zhou also suffered from each other. ”
"Historical Records: Feng Zen Book" said: "Yu collects the gold of Jiumu and casts Jiuding." All taste the gods and ghosts of Heng 鬺 (shāng, interpretation: cooking livestock meat to sacrifice) gods. The saint was prosperous, and Ding moved to Xia Shang. Zhou De declined, Song Zhishe died, Ding Nai fell, and he was gone. ”
The thing Ye Xin is looking for is called "Jiuding".
The largest bronze vessel found in China is the Simu Wuding, and this "Jiuding" is synonymous with Huaxia, as well as a symbol of the supremacy of royal power and the prosperity of the country; They are far bigger than Simu Wuding, and have a long history, but unfortunately, they have long been lost and gradually become a legend.
As for why she was interested in such an ethereal thing, only she knew why.
Perhaps this Jiuding is also one of the secrets about that person......
When she was still called Ye Wuxin and still a sword idiot!
Ye Xin still remembers the first time he met a student in the office, they had a simple conversation:
...............
"You love to read?"
"Of course. If you don't read, how can you be a top student?"
"Then have you watched "Left Biography"?"
"Of course I did. ”
Ye Xin leaned forward slightly: "Do you know the Jiuding in 'One Word Nine Dings'?"
Lin Xiao frowned. "Zuo Biography" is the earliest record of Jiuding classics, according to legend in the early years of the Xia Dynasty, Xia Wang Dayu divided the world into Kyushu, so that Kyushu Prefecture Mu contributed bronze to cast Jiuding, symbolizing Kyushu, the country's famous mountains and rivers and strange things engraved in the body of Jiuding, and Jiuding concentrated in the capital of the Xia Dynasty.
"But it's just a legend, an ethereal thing. Lin Xiao finally summarized it in one sentence, he always felt that the word "Jiuding" gave him a very inexplicable feeling, as inexplicable as the dreams he had been repeating recently.
Ye Xin was silent for a long time, and then asked: "Then do you know, what is the explanation of the so-called 'three long and two short'?"
Lin Xiao obviously didn't react to the teacher's question: Wasn't the myth still being discussed just now? How did it become an idiom? This brain circuit turned fast enough...... After a while, he said: "It refers to an unexpected calamity or accident, and it is also a euphemism for the death of a person." ”
"......" Ye Xin was silent.
"Teacher, is there anything else?"
"It's nothing, it's just that you like to read books and talk. ”
...............
Ye Xin put the book back on the shelf and walked out of the book floor the same way. "It's getting dark, it's time to get off work. ”
3.
"Sword-idiot?"
If you come home and see a young man in ancient clothes lying on your couch, with one hand under his head and the other playing with a flute, looking at you with a smile on his face. Nine times out of ten, you won't think that you have fallen into the kind of "My Husband is a Fairy King" time-traveling script, but most likely you will feel that your home is haunted.
When the lights were not turned on in the room, the young man lying on the sofa looked extremely pale, and the jet-black robe on his body was painted with blood-red runes.
Ye Xin didn't seem to show any surprise at the extra scary guy in the family, she still changed into slippers at the entrance as before, turned on the light switch, and threw the bag on the sofa by the way, which happened to hit the feet of the black-robed young man.
"Ye Wuxin, you ......" Ye Xin's throw was not light, and the black-robed young man jumped to his feet in pain and jumped up directly from the sofa.
Ye Xin didn't pay attention to what the other party was in now, but slowly walked into the kitchen and poured a glass of water, and handed it to the black-robed young man. "There's no such thing as a sword idiot in this triple building, my real name, so don't call it anymore. ”
"Changfeng is not by your side. ”
"You've been following me for days to find my whereabouts. Ye Xin poured another glass of water, took a sip of himself, and said lightly: "I've spent him on other things for the past few days, so as to avoid when you come, in case you get into a fight with him...... I bought this house, but it's very expensive!"
"A dignified sword idiot, you actually know how to save money?"
"Less nonsense, what are you doing with me?"
The black-robed young man put down the water glass in his hand: "You have seen me standing here, do you need me to emphasize anything?"
Ye Xin was silent.
"Ever since you slashed through the void with a sword in the wasteland a few years ago, the boundaries between the seven-story buildings have become increasingly unstable. The black-robed youth continued, "Whatever you really want to do, you have to speed up. Sooner or later, those troubles will come to you. ”
Ye Xin casually shook the cup in his hand gently: "It's just a clown jumping beam, it's not worth worrying about." ”
"You know that the troubles I'm talking about aren't just limited to the four-story building, since the moment you broke the boundary, there has been no balance between the seven-story building, and many things have been going in a direction that we didn't plan. The black-robed young man said, "We only calculated that Biluo might be the key, but we didn't expect that the power of this key is really great!"
There was a long silence, and the air suddenly became dull.
"Ma Wei, you have to help me. Ye Xin said suddenly.
The black-robed young man couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled: "I will naturally help you." ”
"I found him!"
"That's the student, right...... They look exactly the same and even have the same names, so it's hard for me to pretend I don't know them. ”
Ma Wei suddenly slapped his forehead: "By the way, there is one more thing, I also brought something for you this time." He reached into his bosom, and when he stretched it out again, there was an extra five-petal white flower in his palm that seemed to be condensed into crystals.
The glassy cup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces......
Ye Xin moved in front of Ma Wei at an incredible speed in the blink of an eye, as if teleporting. She took the crystal white flower with trembling hands, and two lines of tears overflowed her eyes at once.
"Nightmare...... Bury...... Flowers?!"
"Back then, I used the seven-petal Funeral Flower to open the Great Dream Array in the Exile Wasteland, and placed a full seven seals on the Pope's natal spirit; ”
Ma Wei's tone was a little heavy for the first time: "In this world, the Nightmare Funeral Flower is extremely scarce and difficult to find, let alone the seven-petaled one. This five-petal flower was brought back by Gu Yu's little kid from the extreme north of the four-story building. ”
Ye Xinliang was silent for a long time, and carefully held the hard-won funeral flower in his hand.
"The seal can only be unlocked at most five ways?"
Ma Wei nodded lightly: "The two deepest parts are left to rely on himself." ”
Ye Xin handed back the nightmare funeral flower: "Then leave it to you." I'll do my best to protect him until he really comes back. ”
"Okay, be careful here, and take your leave. Ma Wei put away his usual unobtrusive appearance, and solemnly bowed to Ye Xin.
"Slow down and don't send it. Ye Xin smiled slightly: "Do you still drink that glass of water?"
The smile that had just appeared on Ma Wei's face suddenly froze, and he turned his head with difficulty to look at the cup of pure boiling water on the table that was still steaming......
"This woman is trying to burn me!"
