Lin Yi never thought that the old man Wang Zhenwang would look up to himself so much that he actually said that he would accept himself as an apprentice.

But he reacted right away—

"It's not good, your old man is highly respected, I am only a shallow learner, everyone on your side, I am nobody, the two of us are a porcelain, a crockpot, this does not match." Lin Yi directly refused that Old Man Wang wanted to accept him as an apprentice.

For others, what he can't ask for is something that makes him extremely afraid, why is this, Lin Yi is mainly afraid of the old man's verbose mouth, what kind of hard life is it to worship an old man who is verbose every day.

Poor old man Wang didn't realize this yet, and thought that Lin Yi was reserved and embarrassed, so he laughed and said: "There's nothing wrong with it, I'm optimistic about you, and I'm going to accept you as my closed disciple, well, in the future, don't forget to be my teacher when you become famous." ”

"Ahem, I think it's better to forget it, I'm too tired to learn that skill."

"It's okay, you have to learn everything bit by bit, it's not too late to be thirty, not to mention that you're only in your early twenties."

Lin Yi was depressed, did this old man not understand people's words, he was already tactful enough, "Ahem, I mean, I don't want to learn." Lin Yi had to be straightforward, lest the old man linger here.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Old Man Wang Zhen paused for a moment, and then glared at Lin Yi, as if he was going to eat him in one bite, "Why?" ”

"Didn't I say it, I'm too lazy and don't like to write and draw." Lin Yi spread his hands and had to explain.

"That's it?"

"Yes, that's it."

"Think again."

"No, I don't have to think about it."

"Don't mind, give you a night to think about it."

"No, I can reply to you in three seconds, one, two, three—well, I've already thought about it, I'm not going to learn." Lin Yi was categorical.

"Give me a reason at the end." The old man did not give up.

"Really?"

"Really."

"Okay then." Lin Yi sorted out his mood and said, "You and I can't pee together." ”

Old Man Wang looked at him, and suddenly, "Get out——! ”

"Oh!" Lin Yi got up and went out.

"Bring me the door!" Bellow.

"Oh-bang!" Deafening.

Watching Lin Yi go out, the old man in the room puffed out his cheeks and walked back and forth, "I'm angry, I'm angry!" This kid didn't treat me as a dish at all! No matter how many people want to worship me as a teacher, they can't get it, and they don't want to be cheap! Bunny, there is something you regret! ”

……

Lin Yi has no regrets, and he will not regret it at all, although he feels a little regretful, after all, there is such a master who can guide him, and it is also very good to learn calligraphy, but he really doesn't want to run the train in front of an old man who is verbose every day, and his ears can't stand it.

I went back to my room, took a shower, brushed my teeth, and then lay down on the bed, took out the "Wizard of Oz" I bought and watched it for a while.

"The Wizard of Oz", also known as "Hundred Ghosts", is a hundred novels completed by Li Baichuan in nine years during the Qianlong period in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. The novel depicts that during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the scholar Leng Yubing was unwilling to cling to Yan Song, the minister of power at that time, and failed in the test. Later, he experienced the murder of Zhongliang, the death of his mentor, and the early death of his friend, so he was disheartened, understood life, and decided to become a monk and learn Taoism. After hardships and hardships, he met the fire dragon on the edge of the West Lake and learned superb Taoism. From now on, slay demons and eliminate monsters and relieve sentient beings.

To be honest, this set of books is somewhat similar to the current "Xianxia Novel", it is also a god and a monster, the male protagonist is constantly lackey--, constantly getting magic weapons, constantly meeting beautiful women, and the beauties are all in love with him one by one, and have a super friendship relationship, and even play 3P4P.

Lu Xun once spoke highly of this book, and said that it was one of his favorite books to read at his bedside. Lin Yi guessed that Master Lu might not have watched "Sword and Fairy", otherwise he wouldn't have said so. In addition, Lin Yi also guessed badly whether Master Lu liked to watch the descriptions of the special plots in "The Wizard of Oz...... When Lin Yi looked through it just now, he couldn't help but pick up the details in that area and study it hard.......

You must know that the Daoguang Dynasty once banned "obscene novels", but "The Wizard of Oz" temporarily slipped through the net. Xianfeng is short. In the seventh year of Tongzhi, it was listed as "should be forbidden prostitution-book" by Ding Richang, the governor of Jiangsu. During this period, only Cai Guoliang said that "there is a pocket book of Tongzhi". In the middle of Guangxu, about a little relaxation of the book ban, this book reappeared, forty-nine years later, it was once neglected in the mainland because of its involvement in gods and monsters.

It is precisely because of this that there are not many versions of "The Wizard of Oz", and there are only four or five of them that are of relatively large value, such as-

In 1986, Peking University Press, 21 volumes of two letters, 16 open line bindings, the book was photocopied according to the Peking University Library's collection of 100 hand-copied copies of the Qing Dynasty. Nowadays, the price of used books is 2,500 yuan.

In 1924, the thirteenth year of the Republic of China, Shanghai Dacheng Book Company, large-character full-book fine school, 8 volumes. Now the price is 1800 yuan.

In 1993, Huayi Publishing House, thread binding, all two letters and ten volumes, photocopying 100 manuscripts from the old collection of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Now the price of used books is 980 yuan.

In 1998, Tianjin Ancient Books Publishing House, embroidered hand-copied The Wizard of Oz (upper, middle and lower), hard hardcover, old books priced at 250 yuan.

……

In addition, it is Lin Yi's photocopied hard hardcover edition of Huayi Publishing in hand, the price is not high, only a few dozen yuan, it can be seen that the collection value of "The Wizard of Oz" is far worse than that of "Golden Vase Plum", and I don't know if it is because the readership audience is too small, or because this book is not very famous.

However, when it came to "Golden Vase Plum", Lin Yi immediately thought of the Qilu book in Old Man Yue's room.

Good thing, I can't help it, someone swallowed again.

When I think of the cover, the binding, the print run, the edition, the paper...... Lin Yi was a little salivating. As an old book nerd, seeing a good version of a good rare book is like seeing a dream bikini girl, and that kind of hunger and thirst is not enough for outsiders.

……

As the saying goes, think during the day and dream at night.

Because he thought too much about the rare book "Golden Vase Plum", Lin Yi unconsciously fell asleep.

In the dream, he dreamed that his door was knocked open, and then he saw the old man Yue, who had always had a straight face, holding the set of "Golden Vase Plum" with a smile and saying to him, thank you for taking care of him in the past two days, so he gave him this set of books.

Lin Yi was taken aback, and on the surface, he still pretended to refuse, the old man had to give it away, so Lin Yi reluctantly subordinated it, but his heart was beautiful. As soon as the old man left, Lin Yi was completely revealed, jumped up happily, jumped from the ground to the sofa, and then jumped from the sofa to the bed, looking crazy, like a child who got candy, the joy cannot be described in words.

……

I don't know how long it took,

When Lin Yi woke up, he found himself lying on the bed. I felt a little pain in my head, and I noticed that there seemed to be something pressed on it. I touched it with my hand, and it turned out to be a book. I was shocked in my heart, it's not good, what about the set of "Golden Vase Plum" sent by Yue Lao?

Thinking of this, Lin Yi hurriedly turned on the lamp next to him, picked up the books that were still pressing on his face just now, and found that it was only "The Wizard of Oz", and there was no "Golden Vase Plum" at all.

At this time, his heart was so uncomfortable that it was as if an organ in his body had been dug out alive; It's like a girlfriend who fell in love at first sight was taken away by a third party.

Lin Yi got out of bed and rummaged again, but there was still no trace, and finally he collapsed on the bed in a daze and complete disappointment.

At this time, he suddenly felt a shock in his heart: could it be that everything he had just experienced was not fulfilled in a dream.

No, God wouldn't play such a joke on me. He desperately pinched his left arm with his right hand, and the pain told him that he was not dreaming now, so the matter of Old Man Yue sending the book was a dream.

Alas, what a miserable life!

In the end, Lin Yi had to admit that it was a dream of helplessness.

But he was still very unwilling, and still tried to climb into bed to try to fall asleep again, and get back the sweet dream of the return of the familiar Yan. It's a pity that his dreams are like water that has been spilled and can never be recovered.

Because of him, he lost sleep. (To be continued.) )
