Chapter 10. Hundreds of people scramble to read (below).

Everyone has their own values and ways to behave in the world, so everyone's reaction to the same thing is different. 1 novel.1.0 text version first release

With the passage of time, the story written by Xiao Mo has been well-known to many people in just two or three days, and many people have rushed to the "Chongwen Bookstore" to read it in person.

But among these people, there are many different views on "Immortal Quest", and some of them express disdain or even resistance based on the theory of "Zi Bu Silent Strange Power and Confusion"; There are those who praise this story so much that it is even proclaimed everywhere; There are also those who seem to be dismissive, but secretly reminisce in their hearts; And more people, after the crowd followed, they went to the "Chongwen Bookstore" to see what was going on.

However, although there are so many people paying attention, because the price of thirty guan is too high, Xiao Mo's book has not been sold so far.

In this era, Confucianism was prevalent, and many scholars regarded the idea of "Zi Bu Speech, Strange Power and Confusion" as a life criterion, but at the same time, because of the lack of entertainment activities, people in this era did not have the slightest resistance to those entertaining things, such as Xiao Mo's novels.

It is precisely because of these two reasons that the story written by Xiao Mo has several completely different views among the readers, and they are arguing with each other.

Regarding this, perhaps Xiao Mo himself didn't think of it in advance.

In the early morning of this day, a carriage slowly drove into the county seat of Shanxian County.

In the carriage sat a middle-aged businessman and his wife and children.

The middle-aged businessman named Wu Gou, is a few printers and booksellers in Yunzhou, his ancestral home is Shanxian County, but this time he came back, but his mother's death day is approaching, and he returned to his hometown to sweep the tomb.

Sitting in the carriage, Wu Gou chatted with his wife and children while looking at the scene of Shanxian through the car window.

"Huh? What's going on? ”

Wu Gou suddenly appeared something, frowned, and muttered to himself.

It turned out that at this moment on the side of the street, Wu Gou saw that there were four or five scholars divided into two camps, and they were arguing fiercely with each other.

It is normal for literati to debate with different concepts and schools, but it is very unusual for the literati to debate with each other in full view of the people on this street.

What's even more unusual is that along the way, Wu Gou has seen the same scene several times.

"These Readers ......"

Wu Gou shook his head, put down the curtains on the car, and continued to chat with his wife and children.

Back at his residence, Wu Gou settled his wife and children, and went to the "Chongwen Bookstore" in a carriage by himself.

In fact, "Chongwen Bookstore" is one of the properties under his name.

However, when he came to the "Chongwen Bookstore", after stepping out of the carriage, he was stunned by the scene in front of him.

I saw that around the "Chongwen Bookstore", people were crowded, shoulder to shoulder, and there were people everywhere, including scholars in Confucian costumes, coolies dressed in short clothes, old men holding cigarette sticks, and children who were only six or seven years old.

In the bookstore, although it is not so crowded, the number of people is much larger than usual, and most of them are readers dressed as scholars.

What's even more surprising is that there are so many people inside and outside the bookstore, but there is no sound, and they all quietly look into the depths of the bookstore.

In the depths of the bookstore, there is a reader reading aloud with a book in his hand, and he is dancing with a rich expression when he reads it. The surrounding audience also changed their expressions as the reader read aloud, sometimes nervous, sometimes smiling.

What's even more interesting is that some of the students in the bookstore, obviously listening intently to the story, have to pretend to be disdainful and pretend to be looking for the book they are going to buy in the store.

"Okay, use my shop as a teahouse! There are still people here to tell stories!! ”

Seeing this scene, Wu Gou laughed angrily, and wanted to enter the store and reprimand the person in charge here, but there were too many people in front of him, and he couldn't squeeze in at all.

In desperation, Wu Gou could only stay in the crowd and listen to the reading of the book in the bookstore with the others.

"It's a fascinating story. Hey? That storyteller turned out to be Xiao Huan and Xiao Xiucai? ”

Listening to it, Wu Gou couldn't help but be attracted by the ups and downs of the plot in the story, and gradually forgot his original purpose, muttering to himself.

After about a quarter of an hour, the story was finally told, and the three sects and nine streams around the "Chongwen Bookstore" all sighed and left after learning that there was no follow-up to the story, and Wu Gou finally had the opportunity to enter his own bookstore.

However, at this moment, things changed again.

"Okay, I didn't expect our dignified Xiao Xiucai to change careers to become a storyteller, which really lost the face of our readers."

At some point, a tall and thin scholar appeared outside the bookstore and said sarcastically.

Next to this scholar, there were four or five scholars with the same look, who were looking at Xiao Xiucai with a provocative gaze at the moment.

This sneering scholar, named Fan Guan, like Xiao Huan, also has a reputation for showing talent, if Xiao Xiu is the leader of the support faction of "Immortal Quest", then Fan Guan is the backbone of the opposition.

Hearing Fan Guan's ridicule, Xiao Xiucai's face turned red. Today he couldn't help but come to the "Chongwen Bookstore" again, grabbed a good position and prepared to read "Immortal Dao Quest" again, but he didn't expect it to cause dissatisfaction among other scholars.

Under the anger of the public, Xiao Xiucai had no choice but to comply.

However, Xiao Xiucai didn't expect that as he read aloud, it didn't take long to attract countless peddlers and pawns to gather around the "Chongwen Bookstore" to listen, so that Xiao Xiucai's behavior just now did not collect money, and it did look like a storyteller.

"I want you to take care of my business!!"

After holding back for a long time, remembering that his behavior just now was indeed unsightly, Xiao Xiucai could only refute like this.

Fan Guan continued to sneer: "But also, Xiao Xiucai, you don't have the ability to continue to gain fame anyway, in the future, relying on that messy book, it's not bad to be a storyteller, at least you won't have nothing to do." ”

"Hmph, it seems that your grades in the last state exam were not as good as mine?"

This time it was Fan Guan's turn to refute it.

"Zi is silent and chaotic and blames the gods, you people are obsessed with these side roads, and you are destined to become unatmospheric in the future!!"

A scholar beside Fan Guan said.

"Hmph, that's because you're too stupid to understand the book, that's why you say that. Although "Immortal Dao Quest" talks about cultivating immortals, the thoughts expressed in it are Confucian principles, and many views are even applauded by Mr. Ge in the county government, what do you know? ”

A scholar beside Xiao Xiucai joined the war.

"Far-fetched ......"

“……”

In this way, a huge debate began, and Wu Gou finally knew the origin of the scenes he had seen on the way here.

Unintentionally continuing to listen to the debate of these scholars, Wu Gou took the opportunity to enter the bookstore, grabbed the bookstore guy who was at a loss, and asked urgently: "You say, what is going on?" ”
